A Journey no End Chapter 60
A tough cookie like myself always begins his day with a nice cup of coffee. For us who dwelled in the shadows, making our living as spies, there was nothing better than taking up a cup of strong coffee to prevent our heads from feeling sleepy.Pumping ourselves full of coffee and drugs was the way of the world-weary. I mixed a drop of the medicine into my coffee and drank it down. This is my daily routine.I’d never been sure of what was in those drugs. I took them from a mail-order catalog. But they were super expensive, so I was convinced they were beneficial to my health.I took the cup and sipped it.“Bleh! So bitter…”This strong flavor was actually what banished sleepiness. Probably. That wasn’t written anywhere in the books, though. Coffee was bitter and gross and seriously tasted like mud, which triggered my gag reflex and made drowsiness my second priority.It didn’t taste anything like how they describe it in the spy novels. They wrote that black coffee was delicious or some

“What is the status of the matter with the evil mage?”When I returned to the office, the boss was wearing another sour expression.“As expected… I brought down the evil mage with my own hands! Right about now, that woman ought to be dying of embarrassment in front of the whole city!”My plan is flawless.The evil girl in question is now dying with her stomach twisted after drinking my poisoned coffee. My acting is very good and I’m never suspicious. She’s now unable to go out because of her stomach being unwell.The poison I gave her will result in laxative diarrhea. She probably poops on her skirt earlier. Feeling so much shame that she would rather crawl in a hole and die.I’m truly a genius.I told my plan to the boss.And here’s what my boss had to say after silently lending his ear.“So I suppose you saw her dead in embarrassment with your own eyes?”“Of course not.”Seeing someone dying is something I don’t want to see.“...”At this point, my boss let out a huge sigh.“You… Ok
A Journey no End Chapter 62
I had realized on my first day of visiting this city that I was being targeted. That’s why I implemented a plan to capture the girl who tried to poison me before.My plan isn’t that clever. Just putting a fisherman on the hook just like a fisherman. With enough patience, I was able to capture her.After capturing her, I dragged her to the outskirts where I’m currently renting an Inn. Upon entering the Inn, the Innkeeper owner, who was as young as me, was giving me a suspicious look as I walked with the unconscious girl on my back.“T-This is my friend who drank lots of alcohol earlier… She could not take it and fell.”I reasoned.The inner keeper made an inner glance at me, full of doubt.“...”“...”We look at each other awkwardly. She opened her mouth and said:“Don’t worry, I’m not the kind of girl who spills the beans. I met people worse than you. I’m simply doing my job here and pretending I didn’t see anything.”The inner keeper said in a bored tone. Turning her head back to the

“Finally! I’m here! Arsland Kingdom’s capital city!”I cheerful yelled with my both hands spread up high on the sky.“Hey! Little miss please stepped forward. There is lots of people waiting behind your back.”“Yeah! Everyone have a place to go.”“Please get out of the way...”“I want to see my darling.”The people behind my back said to me with sour expression on their faces. I’m just having a moment on my life saying hello to the city. Next time, I better should pick a good place to say my greetings.I run down toward the ship dock. The ship I ride was giant cruiser ship. The fare was supposed to be very expensive considering that this is a luxury ship.I was lucky on my case. Instead of paying the ship fee.I get it for free after winning the ticket from the lottery. The ticket is a one way ride going to capital city. This is my first time visiting this city. I was thinking about visiting this place for a very long time. Since, I got the ticket, I also think this is the perfect opp

The roof is secure, food is secure, and money is secure. I could stay here in the capital city for one week before going to my next destination. There are lots of things here to enjoy. This is called the capital city for a reason. Sure, everything is quite more expensive than in other cities, but that is something I already expected.I would like to study something in the library. Yesterday, the Knowledge library suddenly went on fire. The cause was unknown. The bookkeeper who helped me met her unfortunate end. Her end was so tragic and painful.

“This isn’t right… My beloved darlings are going down one by one. My darling is supposed to be impossible to defeat.”The one speaking is someone outside of the city spectating the chaos from afar. He bites his finger continuously and his body trembles. The man was covered with a lab coat. On his face was broken glass.Beside him spectating was a decaying woman. His supposed wife died many years ago. By the power of undead magic, he was able to raise his dead wife as a zombie. His terrifying work doesn’t end with that. He’s also a scientist studying demons and monsters. Mixing their cells to create higher levels of demons. Just like the bomb demon and fire demon, Konoha just battles.“I created my demons to be at a level of The powers… A mere adventure should not be able to defeat them.”He claimed.Right beside him, a skeleton hand was placed on his shoulder.“That was naive thinking, Mister Nibiru… Don’t underestimate humans. Humans, despite not being the strongest creatures, always

“I’m not a civilian… I’m an adventurer who volunteered to fight the invading monsters.”“I see… You’re an admirable adventurer. Most adventurers stay in the city. Run with their lives after seeing the giant monsters… Adventurers in this era don’t have the guts like the adventurers in the old times.”Most of them are not that strong to face those demonic monsters. Running might be the only choice for them to survive.“Have you seen a girl here earlier?”“You mean the girl crying with her mother's hand…”“Is she fine?!”“She is fine… I saved her from the horde of zombies earlier. She is now staying with the other survivors in the shelter. No need to worry, the shelter is protected by three powers. There is no way a demon or monster could breach inside.”Powers? I don’t understand… Hearing the tone of her words. They seem to be important people. A very strong one, I guess.I can breathe easily now… Knowing that the little girl I wanted to protect lived.A thorn in my heart has been remov

Aster moves swiftly, going to cut the undead woman’s head immediately. The sword struck her neck with a loud metallic sound. Surprised at the result of her attack. Aster immediately stepped backward, noticing that the undead woman had attempted to grab her arm.“This one is bad…”Aster wasn’t done talking when the undead woman already had her sharp claws in front of her face.Responding at high speed, she moves her sword covering her face. The claw was very sharp and it cut down the white saber of Aster.After the first claw, it was immediately followed by continuous furious swipes. Aster covered herself with defensive magic to block the attack. But the defensive magic wasn’t enough, her body had damage and cuts all over her body.“Lightning kick!”I jump into the fight, kicking the undead toward its face. The undead woman didn’t even flinch after taking my kick. While my feet were on her cheeks. She grabbed me and slammed my body down on the ground.My body was in tremors.Aster took
