William stayed at the top of the cliff for five full days. During these five days, he both trained himself and watched the following events. By now, close to a hundred human corpses and more than a hundred creature corpses had piled up in the clearing below. But each time a group of lucky creatures would come and eat the flesh of these corpses. William smiled now that a few apprentices had wised up and fled back after seeing such a sight. It was time for him to go down.Sometimes he would shoot a few arrows from the top of the cliff and kill a few wounded creatures, but he could not take the ears of any of them. He was afraid that if he was a little late, he wouldn't be the first. According to what Alyna said, he had to hunt five creatures a day to get into the top ten. Calculating that in months, he had to collect one hundred and fifty creature ears in that thirty-day period. William thought he could acquire at least seventy creature ears already after going down. This was because of
“Your money or your life!”William looked at the shouting apprentice with surprise and some disgust. He spoke after raising his hands. "Really? Is that all? With such a simple sentence?”The blond-haired apprentice, holding a fireball in his hand, frowned. "What are you saying?"William shook his head. Again, he realized that he had encountered people with an IQ below seventy. “I'm saying that your words are not motivating at all. It doesn't make me want to give my dimensional bag to you."The young apprentice was startled. He thought later. 'Was that the reason why the apprentices we had ambushed in the previous time immediately ran away?'Curiously, but cautiously, he asked William. “What do you think I should say?”William smiled. He asked as he lowered his hands. “How can I address you?”The blond-haired youth answered with a troubled expression. “… Tate ”“Okay, Tate. Now listen to me carefully. If you want to threaten someone, it has to be extremely realistic. Moreover, you shou
Below was a wide open field, and nearly a thousand corpses lay on the ground. Nearly two hundred people continued to fight each other like crazy. No one cared who was friend or foe. William even saw two apprentices kill each other from the same tower. At the end of these corpses and the battlefield, a dark-skinned, short-haired youth was meditating cross-legged over dozens of dry skulls.An evil, grey aura emanating from thousands of corpses entered this youth's body and disappeared. Next to the young man were two pots of similar stone incense holders. Grey smoke was emanating from inside, entering the bodies of the apprentices on the battlefield through their noses. That's what William thought was the reason why all these people looked crazy. There was something about the smell that bothered even him, and he was glad it was far enough away.He even spotted his own teammates down below. Even though they all looked tired of fighting, they were still fighting. Beck was constantly shooti
Seren expressed a regret that she could not hide in her words a moment ago. Some thoughts that had sprouted in her when William had rescued them an hour ago now surfaced without her noticing.It didn't matter how dangerous William was. The important thing was who this danger was against. She hadn't seen any bad thoughts in William's gaze until now. Therefore, she could only generally judge the sense of danger emanating from him. She had just finally figured out what kind of person William was. If you were his friend, everything would be fine, the world would lie at your feet, but if you were his enemy, woe to you.Seren bit her lip and stared at the grey fog that engulfed William. The fog was invisible, and all her teammates, including her, were curious about William. In fact, right now, Cora and Seren were unconsciously biting their lips.Meanwhile, the young man William had saved shouted out. "Damn! He tried to save us but look what happened! Axar! Surely he must have cast a forbidd

Please stop!"The creature stopped abruptly and looked at William strangely.“Why is your name so long?” William asked, unable to bear it.“Because of my different names and titles, known in various regions, that the people I have beaten have given me. But I don't think it's that long. I've said thirty-four so far, and I still have sixty-six more names I haven't said.” The creature's lips curved downward. It was obvious that he was unhappy."Okay okay. Understood. So how do people call you?” William felt that he would vomit if this name thing continued any longer.“Everyone calls me Azrauth!” The creatu
In a great, completely dark hall, Azrauth sat on a great golden throne. The skull of a horned creature was placed on the two armrests of the throne. Where he rested his head, a black sun was embossed against the golden hue.Azrauth opened his eyes as he spoke his last words to William. It was as if he had regained consciousness. His body, armour, and even horns were exactly the same as those William had seen.On the throne, he placed his right elbow on the armrest and then supported his chin with his hand. A slight smile appeared on his face. Later that smile grew larger and turned into a wild smile.Right now, eight creatures were kneeling before him, awaiting his orders. All of them looked different. Some looked like humans, while others looked like hideous creatures. Azrauth raised his index finger, and after the eight kneeling creatures stood up and bowed again, they left the hall.The wild smile turned into a wild laugh when Azrauth was the only one left in the hall. “HAHAHAHAHAH
A few days later, William began to descend. Although the depth wasn't huge, he was extremely careful. He didn't want to accidentally fall into the middle of the volcano. He did not trust the volcanoes of this world, although he trusted that his body could withstand it. Because since he learned that there are hundreds of types of fire, he did not think that every volcano would be equally hot.Especially volcanoes like this one, which is very rich in spiritual energy and fire element, scared him a little.Saying just in case, he carried his bow and an arrow with a rope on his back as he descended. If he fell, he planned to escape thanks to it. Luckily, there were no fears and he descended safely, jumping off the ledges. After this half-hour descent, the scenery was a little different from what he had anticipated.From the top of the volcano, the area he was in was clearly visible, while he was met with a cloud of mist below as if it were an illusion. This cloud of mist came out of small
William took the first step into the last ten meters of barrier-like distance and closed his eyes. As he took a step, a gravitational force that started from his toes landed on him. However, when he stepped into the gold rank, he felt that this gravitational force was not strong enough. So he relaxed and put his whole body into it.Without a rank one mage, the gravitational force inside was definitely not something that could be resisted. Moreover, that mage would also need a protective spell to protect him from the gravitational force. Otherwise, in William's opinion, this force would be impossible to resist.After a few seconds of getting used to it, William walked towards the altar. Although he felt no danger in the area, he was extremely cautious. He came to the foot of the altar, looking around all the time.When he reached the bottom, the first thing that caught his eye was what was written in the book.[Sierra] William, who did not understand the title of the book, slowly touch
