It's time to get to know about the first villain of the novel. Actually, I feel he reminds me a bit of Klein, and you? In case you don't know him, Klein is a minor villain from vol 1 to vol 3 of my novel Ixion. No doubt you will like what will happen in the future regarding him.
After rushing to his office, Calvin found Diethard standing looking at the picture of the former king of the principality. Diethard saw him and prostrated himself to greet him. "It is a pleasure to see you healthy my king." "Enough of the formalities. Tell me, did you manage to find out anything?" Diethard smiled in a very ghoulish manner. "I did." ◇ November was progressing normally until one day... "Go to the palace?" Rei, Rose and Eli were in a room at the academy drinking tea. A maid from the academy came to report that Rei was wanted by a palace official. Rose took the message as Rei was lying on a couch. After we got rid of Bertram, it seems the Bartolt family filed a complaint. Someone in the palace threatened them, was what the knight who released Rei from interrogation told us. Rose came and I told Rei the message. He looked at Eli who was also surprised. "I can't know the reason why they are calling you." "In that case, let's go over there." Rei said af
It had been a few hours since we went into the forest. It was already midday. The forest on the outskirts of the capital is vast like a sea. In the game this place was known to be a massive source of experience for leveling up. At every corner we would come across some monster or treasure. I told Rei to look around if there was any chance of hidden treasure, sadly there was none. I feel very disappointed in part. I was hoping for even a small one. Everyone was chatting as we walked on this long trail. ◇◇◇ The person who was guiding them was Isaac as he received a map from his father. On that map was located was marked the villages under attack. Next to him was Oliver who was asking him a lot of questions. "In those places is that where the attacks happened?" "That's right. The funny thing is that the pattern is strange." "Why do you say that?" Oliver asked intrigued. Isaac answered as he brushed some branches away from his face. "The attacks seem to have been done ran
This happened after Rei and Rose left. "That's not how you put up a tent." "But I want to set it up like this Isaac." "Al, I'm telling you this needs to be more spacious so Eli has more mobility." "No, no, no. You do understand that tents are for sharing right? You're using two tents for her alone!" Everyone was setting up their stuff. At that moment while Alfred was stopping Sig from using his sleeping bag to make a bed for Eli. "...!" He became aware of an approaching presence. "Where's it coming from?" "Al?" Alfred looked sideways. (It’s moving around a lot, I can't detect how many there are.) "What's the matter Al?" Sig was asking him, but Alfred wasn't paying attention. Behind them a hooded man ran straight at Sig. Alfred shouted. "Enemy attack!" Everyone reacted to those words. But it was too late. The hooded man was approaching, pulled out a dagger and standing a meter away. "Bacon, guard His Highness!" A voice came from the sky, Alfred raised his head and
After being captured, Diethard's group brought Sig and the others to a principality base. It looks like a castle. But it is a temporary base created by them. How could they do this in such a short time? It is mainly because of the cult members, the codes who built all this. Diethard seeing the internal situation of Brune, understood that it was very easy to invade them. He planned different plans, but Calvin told him the simplest of all. Plant different enemy bases around the capital and secretly attack. That ridiculous plan worked. There were currently forces trying to enter the capital. Calvin thought it was his perfect plan. But in fact, a strange force made sure no one noticed. The screams of combat from those areas could be heard all around the capital, while in the area where the captured boys were, there was no combat. Sig and all were placed in the center of the camp, their arms and legs bound with chains so that if one were to run away, the others would be behind
Everyone was shocked. First there was an explosion. Then Rei came out of that explosion and threw Howard. But the real surprise was his face. Unlike before he kept a dull expression, now he had a confident smile that reminded them of the old Rei. But there was something different. He had stopped thinking about being the strongest in the world. He looked at Eli and walked over to her. "I'm sorry for the trouble I caused." He took her cheek and stroked it lightly. Eli cried as the Rei she loved came back. "No. I was waiting for you and that makes me happy." Rei laughed a little too. He activated a skill. "Break chains." The chains that were holding them all were destroyed. Calvin, who was watching everything with a shocked expression said. " Y-You did that!!!" " You destroyed my improvised punishment!!!?" He pulled out his sword and pointed it at Rei to pierce him in his lung. "What a testy fellow you are." Rei sent with a light breeze to blow Calvin away. Then he s
I still remember that annoying event in the game where we had to go overseas to gain experience. The enemy to defeat was a guy known as the Unholy King, a high-level undead. Undead are born when various feelings filled with hate, revenge or suffering for wanting to live again all manifest together. This is how a lich is born. That impure king was actually the strongest kind of undead of all, an elder lich. It was hard to defeat that thing, it could revive up to nine times. Fortunately, I was able to defeat it. Anyway, there was an extra name, which made it unlike the other elder lich unique. It wasn't his name as an unholy king, but his title as a floor boss. Doom Lord. ◇ "... It can't be." "You must be joking." "That appearance looks exactly like him, the Doom Lord." In front of everyone, Calvin had become undead. But only I knew what kind of undead he became. I knew it because his appearance, even the color of his armor is the same. It's a total tracing to that guy.
Calvin had been resurrected. Although he's undead so the word may be wrong, I don't care. What's worse, Rei's strongest attack was defeated. If we can't destroy him, we can't beat him. What should we do in this situation? There is no time to think. "Rei, here he comes!" "..." Rei was still in shock at how his best attack failed, but it's no time to get depressed again. "Rei!" "...!" I called out to him to react, he woke up from his trance and crossed his arms. "I-I know." "I'm going to use what I told Rose earlier." In Rei's hands, two types of magical power began to form. In the right hand a red colored aura formed and in the left hand a golden aura formed. The auras began to form swords. "This is what I have developed resentment! Mana swords." "I can cut through anything in my path since the magic power is spinning at high speed." "With this I will definitely win!" Rei went straight to fight Calvin a sword duel. I thought it was crazy, but if it's magic power, it
Right after Rei defeated Calvin. Bret was backing away. "My stomach hurts." He watched almost the entire battle. His stomach was making rumbling noises. "I have to go to the bathroom." "That was weird, I'm scared and it's really scary." He watched as a human fought an undead. The death knights and fake angels disintegrated a little after the encounter ended. Being away from Sieghart and the others, he drew his sword. I must dig a hole so it won't be noticed. Just as he thrust the sword in. "Gyaah!" He heard a cry of pain. A lot of blood was coming out of the ground where he stuck the sword. Bret panicked and screamed. "I'm so sorry, I didn't know the earth was bleeding too!" He was so frightened that he blurted out incoherently. The others heard that scream, Sieghart and Sig went over to see what was going on. When they arrived, they were shocked. Wearing natural camouflage, Diethard was still alive. Even with a sunken area of his head he was trying to run away. W
