2022-01-13 23:29:04We all go down from the high ground where the mountain ends. Walking down a trail toward the small town.
The town is very small. Looks like the population might only be a hundred or so. You’d be just barely squeaking by if you had to live here.
While we are walking down. A young lad approached us with an ax in his hand.
“Who are you!”
He shouted with an angry tone.
She lowered his ax and recognized us.
“Heroes… Why the heroes are here?”
Same with Lana. People seem to know us as Heroes in this world automatically. Maybe, it was a part of the trail.
I wonder if this world is real. It kinda intrigues me… What is this world, why do we need to help these people and where is the extraterrestrial we need to defeat.
“Rin!”
Lana called out to him.
“L-Lana?”
Lana walked to him and then hugs him tightly.
I don’t know what kind of r

But what’s served to them is something they didn't expect. “What… is this?” Asked Brendan as he look toward the bowl in front of him with a bit of disgust. Of course, he made a smile when the mother who bothers to cook it took a glance at him. Probably, he won't want to hurt her feelings. “Stir-fried Nature worm and herbs from the back of our house.” It was a bowl of Nature worm.

Entering the townhouse still with the old chief. The heroes were welcomed by a young lady seating in a chair facing directly to the door. As if it was intentionally put in that position. There is no one but the girl in the room. “Who is this girl?” “Eris… She’s granddaughter…” “How dare you beat down my grandfather? He’s the most important person in this town… If you’re here to save the heroes earlier. The three of you are wasting your time. The ket opening the lock in the dungeon was already gone in my hands… I tossed it away in an old well.” “She is still little but she surely has that irritating personality.” “Where is this old well?” Falfa asked the chief. “Behind my house. But the bottom of the well gave out years ago, and it's all dried up. You’ll never get the key back.” The three started to have a hopeless expression on their face.

Successfully retrieving back their weapons. Retto and everyone immediately goes outside to battle the upcoming extraterrestrial in the town of Nell. Looking to the destruction the monsters already made and the people lost their lives. We can say that the Player's party is a bit late on responding. It's not entirely their fault.“How horrible…”Ivy muttered seeing the dead people laying on the ground. Other people running and others ate alive by monsters.Saving everyone in a flash is impossible. No one ever think that something like this would happen.The Player's party was feeling guilty.Rin immediately panics himself and runs toward the direction of Lana’s house remembering his mother and Lana.

There are too many of them. Defeating them all is impossible. Fighting them is not making a significant change on the battlefield. Extraterrestrial appearing in front of us is stalling us on saving people. We barely move from the spot we first fight. At this rate, my energy would be dry out. Something that I can’t let from happening. Octopus extraterrestrial rapidly move forward and launched its tentacles in my direction. When its tentacles reached my attacking range. I immediately sliced them down into pieces. I move toward its giant head and thrust my sword inside. From the inside, I move my sword downward until my sword reached the soil. I immediately turned my glance to Falfa, Ruby, and the useless cat. “We’re running! We can’t defeat these monsters in our state.” “What are you talking about, Retto? The mission said that we need to relocate the people from this town to Eden city. If we failed to do that we’re going to die.” Ruby re

She leads all of us to the safest way possible.” The white cat cuts in with a smug face. “Suck on you Retto! I’m not useless after all. I save all of these people alone by myself.” The white cat was boasting herself with her chest high up. The little kids approached her and play. “Wow, so cute.” “So soft.” “Hey! I’m not a toy you know! Get off your hands away from me.” “Here enjoy this fish.” A little girl gives Ivy a fish. Ivy’s eyes sparkled and started to have a drooling face.

“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.

Short story 12: Secret spy (Part 1)
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

Chapter 223: Voided Memories
Eden city, City hall. Dia clutched her temples trying to relieve some stress. “What is going on?” She whispered and stood up from her seat to get some tea. (I was gone for quite a while and problems pile up. Is that murderous Latina still doing her job? I take that back, she’s doing her job. She hated me more than anyone in this world. But she’s a big help, that’s for sure. I could not imagine myself doing this intense work without her.) Dia spawled back in her seat. She blow the hot steam first and sniff the relaxing aroma for a moment before she made her first little sip. She then shifted her sight to the paper laying on the desk. Most of them are report letters for spies Dia deployed to investigate other kingdoms' actions. The land that pull her interest the most was the neighboring country Ruki kingdom and The remote Islands of Youko. Youko wasn’t part of the world organization and they always push any offer from other countries as if saying that they could survive on their

Dashing at the dunes of the great desert back to Foire territory. I’m not planning on going to Fiore to ask for help from the knights. I’m merely going to use the route from Fiore to Yuno kingdom. Knights of order aid will be great, but I decided not to bother them. The last time I visited, I find out that they were having a long battle between the kingdom knights. The demon king might be gone, but the war continues. It will be inconsiderate of me if I ask them for a selfish favor. I have no exact plan on how I’m going to save Falfa. This might seem like jumping on a cliff, but I can’t help myself to jump. I have to save Falfa no matter what. This desperation is driving me to my limit.

For what reason she’s looking high up in the clear blue sky? For sure Alina won’t be adoring the blue sky. She is not the type of person who likes beautiful things after all. The craziest part was that Alina was standing in the same spot in front of the giant window for one week. She’s not sleeping or eating anything. Her eyes were simply fixed on something. Miku deep in her heart was worried and would like to ask what is going on. But if she does, that might be the end of her. In other words, death. Miku simply support her in whatever Alina wanted. There’s still the tea she serves earlier and Alina’s favorite strawberry shortcake.

Chapter 220: Witch Contract
“I’m dead!” I sat up as I woke up. Immediately I have my hand on my chest and check my wound. There are no wounds in my chest. My body is perfectly fine. I was skeptical myself and look around. The place where I found myself wasn’t someplace I know. There's no floor but I’m sitting. No walls or anything. The closest description I could ever think of was that this place looks like the starry night sky I usually gaze into. From some angles, this place looks majestic. I didn’t notice immediately, but there was a girl sitting on a throne in front of me. The face same as Elaina's. This girl was the Cosmo witch. “You really mess up there.” She said. “You here to help me again. Thank you so much…” “Help you?” The witch gives me a cold gaze. My limbs were torn apart and my head was skewered by a golden sword. “... Don’t get ahead of yourself. I’m not helping you or anything. Well, in some aspect we can say that I was helping you. I mean, you are dead right now and I’m the only one wh

A 50-meter-tall dragon appeared out of nowhere. Monsters aren’t supposed to get through the barrier of Liana. The barrier of Liana is been protecting the whole continent for hundreds of years. While I was dashing in full throttle something from the past resurfaced in my mind. In the past, the time Falfa and I were still new on this continent. There was a case about the havoc of the horned bear. The main culprit for that was the wyvern that took their shelter away from the bears. I took care of them and finds out that a part of the barrier melted. The hole wasn’t clear to the naked eye and only I who had a gleaming yes could see it. Wyvern noticing the hole is simply dumb luck. However, there must be someone who can see the barrier just like me and… Is this event caused by my ignorance? I want to live life os selfishly thinking of my happiness with Falfa. I don’t want to live like a hero who will selflessly dive into danger ever again. I don’t want that feeling anymore. But why am
