"We haven't entered the city before, is what we see reasonable?"
"I don’t think so."
The atmosphere of Winterbreeze could be seen getting busier, what makes it weird is the crowd points are uneven and only piled up in one place, which should be their heading.
"Do you have an explanation, guard?" Lucius approached the guard who had just closed the gate.
"Recently, our transmitter devices have been having problems. We can't use the teleport feature to another city, but we still can receive teleportation from other places."
“That recently…how long ago, to be precise?” They came around noon without going through the regular transmitter, and the reception signal wasn’t a problem then.

“What happened to you, Young Master Archie? On three occasions we meet, you look lethargic and weak, and every time that happens, you seem about to force something," continued the person.Archie could indeed feel someone approaching from a distance, but he didn't see that it was someone they knew. “Oh? You?" After lifting his head to look at the person who greeted him, Archie still couldn't name the person. "I'm sorry, I don't know your name. However, I am so grateful for your contributions to us beforehand.”"Ha ha ha. My goodness, Young Master Archie. We couldn't even do anything back then,” that person chuckled as if forcing the regret not to show on the face, “in the end, we only became a burden to Alian Village.”"Archie said that with his feeling, Jenny." Layla stood in plac
The transmitter repair progress has yet to show significant improvement, or at least they have to know what caused the occurred problem.After confirming the crux of the matter, Gimmond and the employee replied that there was an imbalance in the transmission signal, but somehow, the reception signal had no effect.A while ago, an adventurer had just teleported into the city of Winterbreeze, exiting the transmitter-receiver as usual. This indicates that transmission and possibly receiving features aren’t disrupted in other towns, confirming whether the disturbance only occurs in Winterbreeze.“Other than the odd transmission signal stability, everything seems fine, and the imperial should have received your signal of assistance, right? Are their responses always this slow?”
Not long after Archie and the others were escorted to Jenny's house—leaving Luca and Gimmond, who were still apparently busy dealing with the transmitter problem—a delegation from the empire arrived via the transmitter-receiver.At first, Gimmond and the others were relieved that the imperial officers had arrived. Still, after seeing the appearance of the people who had just teleported in, they looked less like officers and more like adventurers ready to conquer.There were also two parties of ten people who had just emerged from the transmitter device. They were all dressed in full gear, with a party composition that would undoubtedly carry out a dungeon conquest.Some of the faces among the newly arrived adventurers bothered Luca a bit. He knew a few and wasn't so foreign to the rest. To confirm his do
There are many ways for someone to get skills or abilities; Archie already knows that, but he himself has never tried it or seen firsthand how someone gets skills or spells. At the time he knew 'Vision', it wasn’t something he could put his curiosity into because 'Vision' could generally be used by anyone as long as they had sufficient sensitivity to Mana. Not much different from someone learning to ride a bicycle. In his last conquest, Archie's party had obtained parchments skill as drop items. After being opened and read by Gimmond, apparently, the parchment contained the incantation [Mantle of Glacial], which was a blue-grade spell for ice element and low-temperature resistance. It was a rare parchment that could be sold for a fair price, but Archie hadn't been able to decide whether or not it could be put to good use by him. Archie is already in Given. Just like before, he felt sucked into another dimension and opened his eyes in a place filled with silver and magical effects th
"How are things going, Archie?""Interesting. I got some new skills and was thinking about how to use them later. By the way, where are Luca and Lucius? Are they still eating at Jenny's?”The one who greeted Archie in front of the church was Layla, his fiancé. He had not seen the two colleagues who had escorted Archie's arrival before."They took some snacks for Gimmond."“Huh? Gimmond still working hard, too, isn't he? Even though I'm sure after the adventurers clear the irregular dungeon, the transmitter will recover," said Archie.After taking quite a break, Archie got back into shape. He felt the herbal tea that Jenny's mother had served him was adequate. Maybe he should ask for the recipe.<
Luca wanted to rest his body immediately; he felt sore in several places, especially his feet, after walking quite a distance and climbing the mountains. The more his desire appeared, the more he realized how physically weak he was compared to his other colleagues."Welcome back, Master Luca."The maids greeted Luca as usual as he entered the church building. In all the years, he had never noticed such a marked difference in almost anything around here, regardless of the good or bad that was going on in the empire.Usually, Luca would report to the staff, but this time, on direct orders from Archie—his new best friend—he had to confirm the young master's preconceived notions. "Is Sir Rubben in his room?"Rubben Antraghski, the man in charge of all kinds of re
The commotion started to break out as panic from both sides—adventurers and guards—they still couldn't determine the sudden attack’s direction, instead pushing and pointing their weapons at each other. Not long after casualties fell, the adventurers began physically attacking and were driven away by the guards who tried to defend themselves. From the entrance, other guards started arriving. “Oh, thank goodness, reinforcements,” they thought. They never expected that the guards coming from behind would instead start attacking the adventurers with spears and swords. The confused adventurers could only resist while observing the situation before deciding. Luca jumped up and witnessed the commotion in the hall; he didn't know what attitude to take under such circumstance
It was the first time Luca faced an international criminal directly; he couldn't focus on the newly appeared clown; his body had to avoid and withstand the swings and attacks from the mummies creature.“Damn it. If only we could avert the spiral,” Luca grumbled.Countless creatures filled the hall, scattered in all directions, and gave everyone a headache. Choosing which enemy to cut down for real and which partner to make is a confusing choice, not because the external appearance is so obvious, but because the momentum of the coming attacks from almost all directions makes even skilled combat adventurers have to think twice."If we just cut this puppet human, it'll be fine, right?""Stupid. Who knows if they are still alive?”
