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
- Secondary mission - Prove that you’re the dominant one (Complete)- Mission Reward – Unique title Alpha Wolf (Acquired)- Alpha Wolf (Active title) – People or animals lead by the host who is within a three-hundred-meter radius around the host will have an increased recovery rate, more stamina and will have a boost to their status based on host status (Title inactive)-Special title ability 1 – Roar of the Alpha wolf (Natural magic) – Any hostile creature will undergo a test of spirit under the roar of the dominant predator.

‘One mission is over and another came right after,’ Adam wondered why there was another mission.And this time, there was no punishment for failing.‘I might fail this one,’ he thought, looking at the given duration. He didn’t wish to come with the source of the curse because he clearly remembered the words describing this curse. Someone created it.He decided to receive his new skill right now. After all, it was a type of knowledge.- Mystic Knowledge (basic) – Transferring to host- Basic requirement met (Spirit - F+)- Authentication success- Mystic Knowledge (basic) skill transfer successAdam didn’t know whether it was a type of knowledge or his spirit being at E- other than sudden dizziness there was no discomfort this time receiving the knowledge.Finally, he understood two things. First, a possibility system was giving him the abilities that were useful at the moment of completion of work. The next thing was the bracelet in his hand was created by human hair, and it had a wea
Other than old Sean who decided to stay and help, the others went away, giving Adam some room to work. Joran initially wanted to persuade him to rest, but with the current condition, it’s best that they resolved the problem fast. Therefore, they decided to let him work in the end.“Master Adam, can’t we send this to your church?” Sean was trying all measures to get it done.‘What church?’ Adam shook his head. “Not an option master Sean, this book says they destroyed the ones they found, which means there was more than one. We should find a way to do it ourselves or we will be in trouble again,” He was fully concentrating on the book while Sean was going through other books hoping to find the ritual.“I thought God will protect us, in the end, in his holy place this evil thing is still effective,” Sean said in a disappointed tone‘What god? Should I tell him the truth?’ Adam wondered halting his reading.‘Maybe I should,’ he decided“Your god is no longer here Master Sean, maybe when t
Sean walked out of the room with a complex heart. He had to report their finding to Joran. His god, God of Harvest, had abandoned them. Sean didn’t doubt Adam’s words. Mainly because, while all these disappearances happen in the village, he prayed, day and night, but never received any response.Most people in the village considered him as a madman for believing in gods. However, today, they were facing a challenge that mortals couldn’t face.Until Joran told them that a similar thing happened about 200 years ago, he did not know there was such a disaster. If people were living from that era, there could only be around a few hundred in all the Crimson Empire.What made him more depressed was that there was another God’s believer that could help them.“Sean, what happened?” He was deep in thought he did not know there were many people inside his old Church until Joran’s voice woke him from his daze.“Sigh, he has found the solution for the cursed bracelet,” he unintentionally let out a
‘Wait, what is happening?’ Adam panicked, feeling his power draining at an alarming rate.Finally, it stopped after several seconds. Still, Adam felt if he cast this spell about another four times, he would pass out.- Host’s Spirit is too low to handle the spellSurprisingly, the system answered him. ‘But it said spirit requirement is F+,’- Minimum requirement to cast the spell one time‘Damn’ he cursed silently. However, before he gets into the problem, he felt the strange feeling of burning from the braceletThe next moment, a wailing sound erupted within the bracelet and a cloud of thick black smoke rose, turning into a blurry humanoid figure. It made everyone lose their breath. It was the bloodcurdling feeling of cold and darkness brought by the wailing figure.Adam heard it talking, but he couldn’t make out any words. And after a few seconds, golden light covered the black figure, bursting it into flame only to leave nothing behind.Adam took a deep breath and tried to stabili
Adam looked at the armoury in a daze. He couldn’t believe this place belonged to a village. Even though Westwood village was big, it was still a village. However, here, the number of weapons kept was enough to arm a small army.He saw different bows, swords, war clubs, spears, and many other weapons were stacked on wooden racks. Although they were not neatly arranged, he could tell they were well maintained. Joran guided him here in choosing a weapon.“Master Adam, this is our armoury,” there was a hint of pride in Joran’s voice. “Although this is not good as the North War Town Armory, you will not find a better one even in West Coast city, unless it is her Majesties’ stash,”Adam felt like this man was talking about the Armory in a fashion that he was promoting his daughter to a matching suiter.He carefully looked at the weapons, and one thing he noted was that they look extremely heavy. ‘Yes, these men in the village may use them,’ he thought, remembering the sturdy build of these
- Detecting the host has activated the blood bonding ritual. The host is advised not to stop unless the host wishes to not use the Shadow Blade anymore.‘Shit,’ Adam gritted his teeth and let the blade absorb his blood. Joran and Bob both looked at the weird man and dagger that absorbed blood. They saw the pattern in the handle grow clearer, and the blade emitting a red glow. The process lasted for a few minutes. However, for Adam, it just started.- Shadow Blade has accepted the blood of the awakened wolf- Host is too weak to wield the blade of a master Assassin- Forceful integration of Light Dagger Art (Basic) activated- Basic requirement met (Strength - F+, Agility - F+)- Authentication successSudden pain hit him hard, so hard that he fell off the chair with the dagger in hand.“Master Adam,” Joran and Bob both got up from their seats. Few guards ran inside because of the high voice of Joran. Adam couldn’t open his mouth; he was sure if he did, he would be screaming. Gritting
