"Isn't this Arran's pet cat that's always hanging on his shoulders and taking a nap? What are you doing out here all the way from Arran? did you get lost?"
At the place where Trapp had noticed the shadow, he actually discovered to his surprise that the shadow turned out to be Ladon, who had been missing from Arran's side for a while now. Trapp was surprised to see her here.
Trapp looked around the place, thinking that Arran would be around the area since Ladon was here, but after checking he did not see any traces of Arran, so he guessed that Ladon must have wandered all this way on her own.
"Heh, really, that guy is such a terrible owner. how could he have left you alone to wander on your own? Doesn't he know that there are people who like to capture other people's pets and subdue them for themselves in the universe? Even in this place, one can never be too careful, as it is not entirely safe at all."
"Hey little cat, how about you leave that guy and fol
Trapp towered over his captive like a predator would his prey, his body emitting waves of black gas that spread into the surroundings, turning the area into an inky black zone that was isolated from everywhere else.Looking at Trapp's location from outside, one would not notice any difference from how it was previously. Apart from the place seeming darker than usual and having more shadows on the walls, the alley was no different from any other dark alley in the main area. There was also not a single person to be seen on sight.But Trapp and his captive were still there. They were only isolated from the main world by Trapp's power.This ability that Trapp displayed was the ability to affect reality with one's own powers, thereby creating a separate dimension in which only you existed. This dimension was connected to the main material world, but it was not located anywhere in the main material world.The level of power needed to be able to affect reality i
Just as Trapp's captive was thinking about what to do, she suddenly heard Trapp's voice saying, "you've been so silent for a long time. I wonder what's going on through that little head of yours? Are you still unwilling to talk and want to find a way to escape?"Hearing Trapp's words, the woman looked up to stare at him. But the only thing she could see was the inky blackness of Trapp's hood. She couldn't make out his appearance at all. That made it difficult to know what expression Trapp was making and judge what he was thinking.In the end, the woman could not continue remaining silent forever. If she wanted to hug the huge thigh that was Trapp's leg, she had to say something."Tanis... that is my name," the woman finally said to Trapp.Behind his hood, Trapp smiled and replied to her, "Well then, Tanis, care to enlighten me as to why you were following me? It could have been because you admired my extraordinary countenance and wanted to get a good look
Arran spent the rest of the day touring around the main area of Fort Crawford with Elena in his company. It had to be said that even though the station was in its night cycle, the main area was still as bustling as it had been earlier in the day when Arran had flown over the city.This was literally the definition of a city that never slept.Before Arran started his tour officially, Elena had first taken him to sample a few of the local delicacies of the main area.Arran had visited the most popular restaurants and eateries both inside and outside the auction house. There were different types of foods and ingredients that originated from countless planets and realms. Each was prepared following traditional recipes native to the worlds they originated from.The meals Arran had tasted were varied and exquisite, and each had its own unique exotic tastes. With Arran's appetite, that had gotten increasingly larger since he started training, it had taken very l
After hearing Arran's question, a look of surprise flashed through the eyes of Sadie and John. They seemed surprised that Arran did not understand the reason for them coming to meet him fully armed.Trapp himself was smiling inside his hood as he looked at Arran and said, "I almost forgot you were ignorant of these things, so I didn't explain it to you sooner. Anyway, since we are already here, you'll get to find out the reason for these arrangements later. As for now, we should get going and enter the auction house. We don't want to miss anything."Arran listened to Trapp and did not ask again. Instead, he followed Trapp's lead and entered the auction house while admiring the new equipment Sadie and John had gotten.Elena hung back and hesitated for a moment on whether to follow them in. She had already contacted madame vera to inform her about Trapp's arrival and she was waiting on further instructions from her. Since she had gotten any instructions yet, Elena
"These daggers are the only weapons I need," Trapp said, after revealing his daggers. There was a hint of pride in his tone and it was clear that Trapp was very proud of his daggers and he had a lot of feelings for them.That pair of curved daggers had probably been with him for a long time and they had followed him through thick and thin.Unfortunately, Arran's mind was not here, so he didn't hear what Trapp said. He only gave a perfunctory grunt in answer to Trapp's proud words."Hmm."Trapp finally caught onto Arran's current mood. He was no longer as cheerful as he used to be, and it was clear something was going on in his mind.Curious, Trapp asked, "What's up with you? What's with the sudden glum expression on your face?""Nothing," Arran answered."Just feeling a bit sullen is all.""About," Trapp asked further."Well," Arran began."It's really nothing. It's just seeing your daggers suddenly got me thinkin
Arran, Trapp, Sadie, John, and Elena entered the auction house and arrived at the first-floor lobby.This was the first time Arran had been on the first floor. Before, when Arran had entered the auction house, he had directly flown in and out of the upper floors using the mini cars. Now, seeing the atmosphere on the first floor, Arran realized it was very different from how he had imagined.The place was teeming with people from different races, each going about their own business. It was like Arran was entering the lobby of a large mall and there were different spaces where people gathered to carry out various tasks.Arran looked around and he was overwhelmed by the activity that was carried out in this place. The first-floor lobby of the auction house did not lose out on the streets outside in terms of traffic at all.After taking a quick look, Arran followed the group and went ahead to a certain part of the lobby. There were a few people gathered over
The bidding war... This was a way to decide the results of an auction by displaying one's own strength in order to win the bid. There was a saying that might make right and the bidding war conducted in the auction house completely embodied this saying perfectly. Only with the strength of a person's fists could they claim their intended reward? But not just anybody could participate in a bidding war simply because they wanted to. There were a series of due processes that needed to be followed before a person gained the qualifications to win a bid in the auction house using their strength. First, one would have to register with the auction house before they could participate in a bidding war. You could register by yourself alone or together with others to form a battle squad and fight together. Naturally, the bidding war was divided into single matches, group matches, and team matches. The single matches were only for single participants to comp
The Myths and Fables battle Squad!!!Everybody looked at Arran when he mentioned the intended name of the battle team he was about to register. They were all thinking the same thing... that the name was too casual.Trapp, who was more familiar with Arran, thought the same way and he straight away asked him."The Myths and Fables Battle Squad... that's such a casual name. why did you come up with such a casual name for our new squad? is it that you are too lazy to think of a proper and cool sounding name for our squad and you couldn't be bothered so you randomly thought of a casual name for us?""Tell me, if you can't think of a good name yourself for our squad, how about you let me do it? I promise I will come up with a truly grand name befitting of the squad I will be joining."Hearing Trapp's suggestion, Arran shook his head and replied, "No, it has to be this name. I insist on this."Trapp was surprised that Arran was seriously going to n
