Successfully hitting their target, Audrey lost her speed but wasn’t defeated. Nope, she is far from being defeated. There is no denying that Konoha's lightning punch and Kaede’s black slash are both powerful attacks. So powerful, that it could kill a human in one hit. But the creature they are fighting is not a human any longer.Knowing that their attack didn’t kill the target. Konoha and Kaede go for another attack. This time Konoha pulled her special dagger and Kaede used another of her black slash.Kaede’s sword was intercepted by Audrey’s sword, but Konoha’s dagger came to Audrey’s throat piercing through behind her neck.“...”No blood…“I’m not a human anymore, Konoha… Simply piercing my throat won’t kill me anymore.”Audrey said and grabbed Konoha’s arm. She rotated her body, throwing her away to the near mountain. After Konoha, Audrey turned to Kaede for a slash.Their speeds both match each other. Same with the power of their attack.“It’s an honor to battle the legendary her
The world is insane. The world won’t care about anyone. The world itself doesn’t have any meaning. Does that mean life has no meaning? True and false… Life will only have its meaning if people think it has a meaning. To someone living in their dreams and to someone living in their fantasies. At the end of everything, people just want happiness, not meaning.The world is insane. If you’re sane, you won’t survive for very long.I want to be happy, but what is happiness that I want to pursue? I have no idea that’s why I continue searching. I continue searching and searching.One night, I had a dream. I’m in a wonderful place filled with colorful flowers in full bloom. A vast sparkling lake and a clear blue sky.It was astoniRengly beautiful.But I wasn’t happy…In that amazingly beautiful place, I only find myself alone. There is no one to share.Life is about creating bonds. Creating concrete relationships that won’t fall no matter how many typhoons come. True happiness can only be achi
The snow already covered the whole capital city in white. Right at this moment, a hot drink would be perfect. I’m on my way toward the certain Cafe located in the outer layer. By the way, the cafe is called Twin stars Cafe. It was the same Cafe where Olivia held a gathering for a mission in taking back Noah’s ark and Angel Sandalphon.Entering the cafe, I heard the bell ringing from the door. Attracting the attention of the waitress and they greet me with a big smile on their face.“Good morning, Miss.”“Morning,” I replied and took a seat near the window.It was exactly two weeks since the mission.The east islands are completely wiped out from the map together with a huge chunk on the mainland. There were about thousands of people who died after the battle. Thinking about it felt a little guilty that I’m unable to save them. At that time, is there something I can do?At Audrey’s very last moment. I felt incredibly fond of her. I could not explain the feelings I felt when she hug me.
“Choco! Don’t stay too close the orc lord have a cleaving skill that could reached you in your current distance! Yuyu! Cast support magic to Gard.”Nate, the leader of the adventurer party called Silver scale’s shouted.The thief girl also known as Choco glared back on Nate and explode. “I know! I know what I’m doing! Mind you’re own business, shithead!”The orc lord made its way to Choco. He swing his giant sword over the top of its head down to the ground.The cave where we currently in shakes. Losing her balance and shaking on fright, Yuyu closed her eyes with tears. Seemed like she is already given up in this moment.“I can’t… I don’t have much magic to use support magic anymore.”“Dammit! We should buy Magic potions next time. Gard are you able to hold the other orc on your own?”“I can, but three is my limit…”Gard with his hammer swing his hammer giving the orc hard time passing through his defense. Nate with his sword goes to the orc lord daReng forward with his sword in front
Konoha increased her speed using her lightning speed. She gets a good grip on the two girls both on her hands and kicks the other two boys before they fell into the monster's mouth. The two boys handed in the worst way, but not bad enough for them to have some injuries.“Is this how boys are treated in this day and age?”Nate complained while he rub his back.“Expected by darling… Now, it's our turn to purge this crap.”Choco said drawing her knife and going for a combat stance together with Yuyu and Gard.“No!”Konoha stopped the three.“Why? This is a monster we need to kill them before it killed another human.”Choco was correct in what she said, but the idea of killing a monster just because they are monsters is something Konoha could not comprehend properly. Her belief in not killing humans expanded on her thinking about all life. Is it fine to take one’s life? Konoha thought.“...”Konoha remained silent. Wondering about her thoughts the monster moves. Giving her a hard tackle o
Dipping my body of perfectly warm water until it reaches my neck. I let out huge blissful breath.“This is happiness…”Currently, I’m in the bathhouse inside the pirate ship of Candy coral pirates. Outside the ship looks kinda terrifying, but inside this place is great. It has its own bar. Bath house, gym, dressing room, and weirdly a playground.Captain Hansel said that its fine to borrow some clothes. I’ll try some cloths in the dressing room.From the washroom, Yuyu and Choco enter the bath area Choco was excited opposite to Yuyu who’s having second thoughts.She anxiously turn her head around.She probably thinking that we’re still inside the enemies reach and its dangerous to let our guard down. Yuyu is not wrong, but Captain Hansel is not a bad person I think. She is a little eccentric through. No, I have to double think. Just in case she turned out like Aster.That event does bring some bad memories on me.I shook my head to forget the bad memories and just become optimistic.C
After taking a long time in the bath, I was summoned to the captain's office together with the other two girls. Arriving at the office we are left dumbfounded by what’s presented in front of us.“I can’t take it anymore… Hahahahaha… Hahahahaha… We already said it. We don’t know anything about those matters… Hahahaha… Stop!”Nate hilariously stated while his naked body hanging tied down. He's still wearing shorts meaning his not completely naked. Beside him was the other companion Gard whose already conscious with a big smile on his face.What in the world happens to him? Said the face of Yuyu and Choco.“Ch-Choco… Don’t look… Hahahaha…”Nate said while laughing and tears already appearing in his eyes. I’m sure it's not tears of joy based on what we’re seeing.Choco took manifested a book from her inventory. With a single snap of light coming from the book. The embarrassing image of Nate was kept forever.“Hahahahaha… Look at you, so pathetic. I could use this to blackmail you in the f
“Thank you for delivering this parcel to us. Are you going to take your reward here? Or are you going to take it on the adventurer guild of Floria city?”Said the guild master.“I want to travel light. I’m taking the reward in Floria city.”I responded and took the cup of tea served in front of me. After taking a small sip, my eyes sparkled appreciating how great the tea was.“Oh? Before I go… I want to ask something?”“What is it?”“These past weeks dragons are roaming around attacking the town and cities around Arsland kingdom. Are those dragons from these islands?”“There is only one dragon in this Archipelago and it's the guardian red dragon… The dragon roaming around the Arsland is probably from the dragon mountains… The northern part of the Archipelago is been destroyed already because of the dragon. If this continues, I’m afraid that the whole city will sink like what happened in the eastern islands...”“Is this the first time?”“I feel uneasy… A stranger is interviewing me.”“
“To create the world a better place… Using destruction to give birth to a new world. To make the world unified, we only need one leader. And that was the witch, the savior of this world.”“How is she going to save the world by destroying it? I can’t understand.”“Because you’re a lowly human who doesn’t know anything. The world and the system run behind everything!!”The tiger dashed at Yusael and threw a punch. His fist was caught by Yusael using her left hand. She grasps firmly tightly, and the tiger’s hand bleeds from her strength.The princess forcefully pulled him closer and forcefully swing her fist down at his skull again.“I said that won’t work!”The tiger replied.Yusael didn’t pay attention to his words and continued smaReng his fist into the tiger's head. Blood sprayed on Yusael’s armor and robe. The blood further tainted her pretty face.The tiger's face was unrecognizable. His flesh started moving to reconstruct his head.“My supreme regeneration ability will revive me o
After entering the steel tower with the princess, The Minion of a witch cult, who was seen by the angelic princess, was immediately defeated in one powerful swoop. Her incredible magic, light magic devoured enemies on our way.This is the true strength of Yusael Archangel.She turned her glance at me and gave me a smug smile.“Hmm, looking at me with sticky eyes… Are you falling in love with me?”“That’s not it.”I won’t call this love. I merely admire her strength.And as a man who always pursues power. I found her very alluring. She is brimming with quality and personality. I’m kinda surprised at how she could be talking to me casually, as if we have known each other for a very long time.“You always seem so serious like in the past.”The past times?I’m quite sure that this is our first meeting. I have no idea what she’s referring to.I have no interest in being connected with a famous person like her. It was better to leave some stones unturned.Fighting side by side with her made
At that moment, Ren left Konoha. Or to be precise, the time Konoha grabbed Ren’s arm and threw him directly at the steel tower. The long sword wielder charges his blade with skill and energy. Glowing in brilliant blue light. He hacked down his sword and created a massive burst of energy in one area.The blinding light vanished. Konoha was never seen on the ground. Zeha looked around searching. Concealing her magic and presence, the light-brown haired girl had her position right up above Zeha’s head.Her feet discharge lightning and Ax kicks Zeha from his head. Forcefully blowing him down to the earth. This wasn’t the full power of Konoha. She was serious. This attack was lethal and could kill her opponent immediately. The attack originally had a hammer-like a force that could blast off a human head. There were times before Konoha used this magic and added a sharp conjured blade to her feet.“Sword skill: Instant stance.”His body moves far instantly, creating a 20-meter gap between hi
“I’ll distract him… Lightning Flash.”Blinding light radiated from Konoha’s body. So bright even that I can see anything for a moment. I felt someone grab my arm and I was tossed away with such force.My body was flying straight to the steel tower. Before I have my head craReng into the wall that supposes to be made of thick iron. I pulled my sword and blast flames. Decreasing the force impact. I then have my proper landing on the ground.The steel tower had no window as the description said. Seems like I have no choice but to climb this tower from the bottom floor to the top floor.Konoha is very strong I know she can defeat Zeha with her strength. I shouldn’t worry about her. I have to think of a better way to climb the top of the tower on my own. The side of the tower where I’m currently where was the one facing the forest area. The battle seems to be continuously happening in the north and advancing.Taking another look at the tower. I won’t say this place is a tower. This place i
At exactly 6:00 PM, the adventurers are all deployed to steel island using a spatial portal. Our location was in the south mountain area. A place away from the ongoing battle between the knights of the four kingdoms and the witch cult. As much as possible Scarlet explained to us to avoid battle and go straight to our plan. The mission was simple, sneak to the steel tower and reach the top where the witch of darkness was.And kill her.“This mission is about killing a living breathing human being. Are you sure that you really want to come?”I asked Konoha whose on my side looking calm as she stare above the beautiful night sky.“I don’t believe in the witch of darkness.”“What do you mean?”“I mean, there is no such thing in this world that could destroy the world. If there is, why would they need to destroy this world? Without this world, they’ll also die. I not going to kill her… I’ll capture her. How about you? Are you going to kill her?”The witch of darkness was probably Hikari. T
“Are you sure about this?”I asked.“Yeah, give me everything you have.”Ren replied with her sword already pulled out from its sheath.We stand 10-meters away opposing one another.You must be wondering why the two soon-to-be lovers are currently fighting one another. The reasoning is quite simple. After the meeting held in the castle. We are ordered to prepare ourselves for the big fight happening tonight. The celestial city is near the steel island so there is no need to hurry.Had lots of time at our disposal before the real fight began. Ren suggested that the two of us fight one another.That brings us outside of Celestial city, at the shore near the Sapphire archipelago. The same shore where I met the candy coral pirate not long time ago. Stepping backinton this land brings back memories.I saw Ren use his sword many times. His sword ability is the most dangerous one. The flame on his sword could burn anything. The undying flames of the flaming sword. Flames will continue to bur
Adventurers participating in the mission gathered around the castle theater hall. Turning my head left and right. I could see plenty of adventurers, but not as many as I expected. The number of adventurers who attended didn’t even reach a hundred.“Ren, are we going to be okay?”I asked the man seating on my right.“What do you mean?”“I mean the number of us… There are over thousands of witch cults on the island right? Are we enough to fight those evil wizards?”“I can’t say for sure. But I heard that most of the people here are A-rank adventurers. Quality sometimes can beat quantity.”He speaks without turning his eyes onto me. He had a fixated eye on the stage waiting. On my left side, Alicia is looking a little nervous. Her head was placed low and her hands laying on her legs were shaking a little.“What’s the matter, Alicia? Is there something bothering you?”“I feared that thing might not go well for me… Early this morning I saw in the newspaper that I become a missing person. I
We reached the Celestial City without trouble. Well, there was trouble, but it's quite insignificant compared to the troubles I have been through these past years. Ren refused to give me something to eat and I nearly died of starvation. I was fortunate that there was an angel with us named Alicia who shared some of her food with me. The side that I liked and hated about Ren was his seriousness. What he meant is what he meant. There is no changing it… Probably…(Ren does change his mind sometimes. I just didn’t know how to trigger it. He is very unpredictable sometimes. Me being a cute girl doesn’t affect him at all. He's the type of man that doesn't chase cute girls. I like it, but the idea frustrates me sometimes.)This was my first time in the city. Like what I heard about the Celestial City. The city is nearly as big as the capital city. The difference is that this city is built on an artificial island and it is not owned by any kingdom. People in this place were said to be slaves,
Life is always important. Good or Evil... That is what I want to believe. I, Konoha travel previously killed countless people. I decided to value life more. It's been months since the last time I killed someone. I tried not to but she left me no choice.I still think about it sometimes. What is the possible way to save Audrey from her suffering? Why does innocent Shaymi need to die?The more I think about it, the more complicated it becomes. I try not to hate anyone. The concept of good and evil might be beyond me. Maybe it is beyond human understanding. Or maybe I'm an airhead who can't see the truth.Anyways, the lesson of the past remained. Even though I failed in sticking to my principle of not killing. I will continue to look for a way not to kill anyone as much as possible. It's the same way of thinking I want Ren to have.I put down my pen as I finished writing my Travelogue."Wait, something good happened earlier. Better put it too."I took my own again and wrote it down.Ren'
