Three days have already passed since we left Eden city and decided to travel on our own to the Third Dungeon of Zero. It doesn’t take long for us to travel through the great desert. Desert-based monsters do appear in our way. There are monsters that we can defeat and monsters that we can’t defeat, like colossal sand desert sand worms. Desert sand worms' bodies are immune to the body. Physical and magical attacks. Defeating monsters like them is impossible for us. Encountering one leads us to flee. Arriving at the land where I came from, I was astonished at what I saw. Multiple towns and cities were destroyed. Few cities survived but they are in a critical state. Few of those surviving cities are Yuname city. The first city we found after our long journey. Walking in the streets, I could feel the bloodlust in their gazes. If not frightened, make an expression and immediately flee from our presence. While we stroll inside the city. Three knights come to face us with their swords un
“Cheers!” Everyone yelled, happily celebrating after the demon army’s defeat. With booze on their hands, they chug down in satisfaction and eat as plenty as they can. “Mister… Your wife is such a great wizard.” “You’re wife is awesome.” “She’s not just beautiful… She’s also useful, unlike my wife who can’t even wash dishes. Hahahahaha.” Everyone is praising Falfa for what she did. How about me? I also did something on the battlefield. I’m not an attention seeker, but at least, I want someone to acknowledge what I did. “Here drink more…” The drunk said and offered another cup of booze. “I’m fine, I can’t take too much alcohol.” I replied. I don’t want to be drunk. One of the feelings I despise the most is the feeling of being drunk. Being unable to control my actions and thoughts with my mind was dangerous. There was a time I got drunk and I continued to vomit every single meal I ate during that day. My head is dizzy all the time too. I hate it and I pledge not to become dr
One month since Retto and Dia left Eden city.Dia has her teeth gritting while she looks toward the single piece of paper in her hand. She was raging to the point she wanted to punch someone.She put the paper down on the table and in the office were she and Latina. Latina is smiling happily while Dia was suffering. Enjoying her cup of tea and snacks.“What are you smirking about?”“Nothing.”Latina said with a very big smile.Dia knows that Latina is enjoying every bit of stress Dia is currently in. Today was daylight and Dia didn’t want her true nature to be exposed. As much as possible, she compressed her true personality, and in the whole city the one who probably knew the truth was only Latina.Retto didn’t know, but Latina was his little sister. Not by blood. A long time ago, when Brenn was traveling alone after severing his ties with the players. He met a war survivor, Latina. He lends his hand to her without asking for an exchange. After Brenn died, saving the one he loved the
One month already passed since we started our journey. If we’re merely going to our destination Falfa and I are already in the Yuno Kingdom a long time ago, but after meeting people suffering from the war. I was unable to just move and ignore them. The people knight of order protected are still suffering. A long time ago, the Knights of Order made an oath of protecting innocent lives within the kingdom and freeing everyone from fear. After finding myself killed in our last mission and woke up in the first dungeon of Zero. I thought I have already forgotten about the oath. I was lying. The truth was I had already forgotten everything. My past and my origin in the Fiore kingdom. I only focused on Eden city, my newly found friends, and our goal of defeating the evil god. I become so blinded. My dream becomes a hero becomes blurry and disappeared left behind. I find it funny sometimes that people in Eden city considered me a hero and I never felt happy about it. It was supposed to be my
In the demon king castle.“What is the meaning of this?!”Prince justice or more know today as the new demon king slammed his hand on his desk furious. He gave his eyes on the map of Fiore. In the months that passed, his army is not making remarkable results.“They are chosen by the god, but they aren’t able to do any result. Their faith to be saved isn’t great enough That is why they keep on failing and failing one after another!”“The orc lords are fully enhanced. Making them all evolved monsters from what they are before.”The one speaking as another demon name Zerr. A demon with a young man’s body covered in black and his head with two giant horns resembling a Taurus. On his hand, he adored the red apple as if it were a fine jewel.“If they are powerful… Why are they all defeated.”Prince asked.“There is a hindrance… There is a report about a group of powerful knights protecting a small village. They took the villagers to shelter and defeated mostly of our supreme demon.”Zerr sa
Three hundred knights deployed toward one destination. From afar, Falfa could already sense the supreme demon giving her unpleasant vibes. The lack of sprites in the air weakened the power of the spirits like Falfa, since the sprite is the source of their magical power. Detection of magic is not needed to know the supreme demon's location. The Supreme demon Hydra is so big it can be seen from a far distance.Retto observed the Hydra’s body with his gleaming eyes, looking for possible weak points. He exhaled deeply and said:“There are nice demon hearts located on each of its heads.”“Hearts in their heads? Their neck was so long, is it even possible for magic or us to reach that place?”Momo said.“Don’t be pessimistic. We’ll definitely bring that massive thing down.”Nagu said confidently while he was shining his blade.“That’s right, we’ll bring that supreme demon and free people from fear.”Koroko said and turned to glance at me with a smile.They even said that. An anxious feeling
After the success of the supreme demon hunt, the knights who fought their best made a feast to celebrate their victory. Everyone is noisy, dancing, singing, talking about stories, and lots more. I’m happy that no one died in the battle. The Hydra was supposed to be a very strong demon, but it seems like the new Knights of the order are far stronger. Information was the key. With the information we gathered, we’re able to plan before fighting. The feeling of anxiousness remained in my heart. I can’t help it because it is the same feeling I felt when we raided the demon king's castle a long time ago. During that time we all have what we need. Information, plan, manpower, and skills. But we still lost… We lost because of the incredible power of the demon king. Because of that tragic event, I came to lose everything. Including my precious feelings for Yunis. I’m traumatized. Now we have acquired power and have got strong people with us. I am sure that this new Knight of Order will brin
Not long after receiving the witch revelation. I immediately go to the southern temple alone. Everyone is exhausted from the demon hydra extermination. I don’t want to bother their rest. I would like to go alone like I was planning, but this girl always insisted on going with me. Falfa and I ride an earth lizard to the south. Earth lizards are fast runners and we’ll be there to our destination within half a day of continuous travel. “I think you forgot something, Retto?” “What was it?” “How about your apologies?” There is nothing to be apologizing about. I didn’t say anything to Falfa earlier because I don’t want to drag her down. I want her to have a peaceful time in the town for a while. “I apologize.” “That’s the coldest apology I ever heard that not like you at all. Why’d you gone to the forest alone? Why did you sneak outside of the town alone? We’re partners right… We make an oath in protecting each other.” “I’m sorry for not telling anything to you… I’m worried that I mi
