The wind has been salty as ever, corroding everything it touched every day. Still, the setting sun through the various sails created beautiful scenery for whoever enjoys the evening beauty of the sea from the docks. Adam placed the last crate on the stack, or the last he can move with his frail body, work he could do was not nearly enough for an eighteen-year-old boy, but it was way good enough for a boy who had barely enough to eat, and skinny as a skeleton. He slowly limped back to the ground, using crates as support to his back. He watched the scenery of the sea and to the far horizon, unlike people who came to watch the sundown, what Adam saw was the blowing wind against the sails and dark clouds floating towards the city. ‘It’s going to rain again.’ He thought, brushing the sweat from his forehead. ‘Hopefully, I will not be sick by tomorrow.’ A few months back, he had a worn-out blanket for himself to protect himself from the cold; he was sure his ripped and thin cape would

As usual for the daytime, it filled the main road of the port district with carriages and people. They were transporting goods from the city and to the city. West coast city and East coast city were the two main transportation hubs that connected the eastern part and the western part of the land through the sea. If someone wanted to avoid these cities of the Crimson Empire, they had to cross the High pass mountain range. That was something that even powerful magicians wouldn’t even think of doing. It said that no one had ever come out from there. Another thing was, that if the people in the Southern islands needed to access the western part of the continent, they had to land in this port city. This made the port of the West Coast one of the most prosperous and busiest ports on the continent. Amy felt worried. She had never been out of the house in the daytime. Especially out of their alley. In the morning she and brother Adam would go to the Central district old school gate for so

While Adam was trying to figure out the origin of Wolf God.In a village to the east, a young girl who was resting in her room heard a weird noise outside the house.It was like something scratching on the wall. For a few minutes, she ignored the noise until it got louder. Initially, she was hoping someone else in the house would check the situation, but since the noise was so disturbing; she decided to go and see for herself.‘Strange,’ she found that their living room was empty.“Ren, is that you?” she yelled her younger brother’s name, thinking he must be playing a prank on her. She listened for a few more seconds, but other than the scratching noise, it did not answer her. Finally, she lost her calm.“I will catch you myself,” yelling she got out of the house.The angered girl made her way toward the back of the house where the noise was coming from. However, her brother was not there. She saw a strange-looking girl with long black hair in a white dress squatting by the house wal

“Yes,”His word made the smile on Carl’s face grow even brighter. He was not optimistic about a 9th tier mage travelling with a group of adventurers. Still, he will have all the available help.Westwood Village was not some common village. All the men here are at least around 6th tier warriors. Therefore, the disappearances were not something to disregard.Another thing that Carl could feel was the weird sense of superiority coming from this mysterious man. He has to say he hated it because they were warriors. The Crimson empire had the least number of Magicians, assassins and even well-trained arches. Because they loved to rely on their strength. In the military, Magicians didn’t receive the same respect as a magic warrior who knew how to fight. “I will check the surroundings first,” Adam didn’t wait for his response.He wanted to get away from this awkward position. Also, he needed to get the system reward. Adam turned to the jungle, looking for a secluded place.Looking at his depa

It took them more than half an hour to prepare for the search. The final group was around a hundred people, including Karina’s adventurer group, Empire Calvary and village guards.Other than that. Hunters from the village, Old chief, and to Adam’s amusement, Sean, the old priest of the village also arrived with the search party.Some men carried heavy bags with food and water. Adam started to think that it might be a long night.“Master Adam, we are ready to go. Should we send scouts ahead?” Carl was worried about what they would find with the girl.“Just follow me,” Adam took the lead without thinking twice. It would be night soon, and the more he delayed the search, the more the girl would be in danger.He didn’t forget what was the description of the curse by the system. It was not some magic, but a curse created by world laws. He had no idea what that meant, but if the system was correct, the curse was much more dangerous than any magic.“We are ready to move,” Joran finally finis
