2023-09-07 19:13:56Myru looked at the land and wondered. " A magic circle?"
Stone of eternal misfortune quickly replied. [This is not a magic circle, magic cannot be used here.]
Myru thought, whatever it was he couldn't find the answer. Stone of misfortune released its radiance again, this time the light traveled towards the center of the circle, moving there. [Myru, come quickly!]
Myru's feet stepped lightly there. right in the center of the circle, there was a painting of three triangles that twisted and shaped like a center. With the help of the Stone of Eternal Misfortune, Myru sat cross-legged right between the triangular images...
[I need a lot of energy but... I'm sure with this we can get out of here!]
"Are you sure we can make it out?"
[Of course! I've slept for thousands of years, meaning my power is even greater than that of the dragons! But I'm a bit worried because I'm not too familiar with the outer world].
Well, of course, I'm not so surprised if there are Dragons in this world however, that's not important right now. It would be dangerous if the Stone of Misfortune sent Myru out and ended up falling at the enemy's place or in the middle of the sea. Myru didn't want to take the risk.
[Don't underestimate me!] Stone seemed to feel annoyed by the troubled expression made by me just now.
The stone seemed to be so confident.
Well, I have no choice anyway.
If the plot were to continue following the story in the novel, there would be a high possibility that Myru would fall to a place not too far away. He just hoped that he could return to his residence mansion alone but it felt rather impossible. Moreover, as said by Stone of misfortune, he didn't know the world outside this abyss at all. The stone was like a child who was confined forever in a shell and suddenly wanted to go for a walk.
In fact, Myru, who had read this novel as Arditian, knew more about this world than the stone that had slept for thousands of years.
[I'm done! Now I'll send you!]
Is it done?
Each of the graffiti shone brightly as if a lamp was placed beneath it, the graffiti was so dazzling. It started as a triangle, then spread to all sides and filled the entire circle. Just like the illustrated manga Arditian read when the witch cast a spell over the magic circle.
A bright blue color mixed with shimmering appeared. It felt like Myru was in a different place with a different atmosphere.
His legs felt lighter and he was unable to step his feet towards the ground. In the comforting glare, he could hear the voice of the Stone of eternal misfortune whispering in his head.
[Don't worry, I won't put you in danger.]
Let's just have faith in the stone for now.
Myru opened his eyes, he then used both hands to lift his sleeping body. This place is dark, as there are no lights around.
Lifting my face, I realized there was a stone bridge right above this body to avoid the rain and wind.
I stood up and looked around.
[Myru, there are stairs nearby, let's go up and ask for help.]
It looks like Stone is still stuck to me. Well, he's right, I should go out and at least see where I am at the moment.
I held onto the wooden ladder that was located against the path up there. One by one, my feet climbed up to get to the top. My chest felt heavy once I was at the top so I needed to take a deep breath.
This body was so weak.
Taking a breath once, I tried to go around the small streets connected by the previous stone bridge. many tall buildings were made but looked a bit dirty. In addition, many small streets spread out as I try to go deeper. One thing is for sure, this place doesn't look like a safe place.
Whenever people are passing by they look like they are drunk and have big bodies and sharp weapons in hand. This place also doesn't seem to be part of the town as there isn't a single guard there.
"Shit."
Myru glanced to the side as two large men had just passed by and did not notice him. His ears then heard the sound of conversation between the two men and then decided to follow them to investigate.
"This month has been lucky." said one of them.
The other held a drink in his hand and laughed. "You're right, we didn't think we'd get so much bonus just by bringing those useless people over."
"I got about a bag last month, how much did you get?"
"Only one bag? haha! You should kidnap more people. I got about two bags last month!"
The two then approached a wooden vehicle with a cover. They threw their drink bottles around and then went to talk further ahead. The two were not facing Myru's direction so Myru tried to look inside the wooden carriage.
Myru's hand opened the cloth cover of the vehicle and clucked softly, especially after she saw some iron ropes inside.
Myru backed away slowly.
'Damn, slavery? hey Stone... you're not putting me in danger are you?'
[Of course! I've considered this, but this place won't harm you! Trust me!]
Believe it or not, he was currently in a place or perhaps worse a headquarters where slavery was taking place.
They used food seasoning as a diversion and hid their victims in there. Although Myru was a bit surprised that the diversion they used was an expensive seasoning in the market. Those bastards must have made a lot of money.
Whatever it is, let's get out of here first.
Myru took some of the seasoning to make provisions with the thought that he needed time to return to his place. Until his nose wrinkled as he put the peppercorns into his small bag, Stone of Eternal Misfortune exclaimed in panic as Myru held his nose.
[Myru gasp! Don't make a sound!]
"..."
[Nice, hold it...]
"..."
"..."
Sorry but... the smell of pepper entered Myru's nose quickly making it itchy and unable to resist opening his mouth.
[Akh Myru! I told you not to make a sound!}
"HACHIH"
"HUH WHO IS IT?"
"An intruder? Ah, he's close, Hey you!"
Myru ran as fast as she could while continuing to hide from them, though it seemed like her running had already been caught by the chasing sounds of the two big guys going in the same direction it seemed.
[Stupid Myru! Why are you even making a noise?!]

Getting a lecture from Stone, however, Myru just kept his mouth shut. How else? Strong scents always made him sneeze. Not to mention that he even put in all the spices he found on the freight train. Of course, by this time his bag was quite full.'I'm planning to cook for myself if I can't get home quickly. After all, I need to use my money for other purposes instead of expensive things like spices.'So while there was a chance to get free groceries, why not? Stone of eternal misfortune did not make a sound. It seemed like he felt guilty for sending Myru to a place that wasn't particularly safe.Though it doesn't matter, after all, he is a character in a novel, therefore his existence must be guaranteed."Come here you rat!"Or maybe not?The voice was getting closer.

There was a place that looked hollow but was quite short, even so, it was enough for Myru to squeeze through and the place was in a narrow enough pat

Myru had to endure another yell before being dragged into one of the buildings. The place looked like an ordinary house. Myru couldn't see any difference between this building and the others from the outside. With his hands tied, Myru entered the building and was greeted by others. "What is this?" "The kid who ran away yesterday." "He looks like a noble. I don't remember ever bringing a noble here." Myru kept his mouth shut. They examined Myru from head to toe. Then they noticed a small pin on the robe he was wearing. Edaunay saw it and grinned. "HAHA! A big catch! A big catch! I don't know how he got here, but it's our lucky day! Hey, quickly take this kid downstairs and feed him! In two days, someone will come to pick them up." My body was easily pushed with just one touch.

"Oh shit, it's me?" Arditian stared at her appearance in the mirror. Although her hair and eye color looked ordinary, her face could be said to be handsome. A pure white face, smooth without any cuts and scratches at all. A body that was not too thin but still looked muscular with good posture. Arditian held his chin, noticing the face that was very different from his scarred face in Indonesia. The water reflected from the silver container and the wet face. This is not a dream, if it was how could I possibly feel the sensation of that water so tangibly like this? Arditian glanced at his room. A large and magnificent room, it was almost 10 times bigger than the rent he had rented in Bandung for Rp.700,000 (about 50$), a small one-bedroom with no bathroom and narrow air circulation. The door clicked, making Arditian avert his eyes. He saw a man with fair hair who was quite old, the man's clothes were layered with a vest and vest and tie. His clothes seemed to have a long tail beca

"What do you mean marquess?" Myru wiped her lips with a napkin and looked at the Marquess. Next to the Marquess, a woman with lustrous pink hair who still looked beautiful at around 40 years old replied. "Why are you dressed like that?" From the looks of it, the clothes Myru was using at this time were inappropriate for nobles. Of course, he ordered Ben to change his clothes immediately with the plainest clothes, besides that the materials used were not high-quality materials making the color of his clothes like a commoner. That loaded Marquiss and Marquise stared at her son, wondering what sort of thoughts and ideas her son was going through... "Don't act strangely, we won't lift your punishment for going out.

In addition to your age this year being 18 years old, why do you continue to act childishly and even get drunk ruining the public buildings and businesses that shoul

"Did you find it?" Myru picked up her own food because he told Ben to get a couple of books and news and other information about this world. Ben always explained to him about the ins and outs so that Myru didn't have to be tired of looking for it himself. Still, he was quite curious about some of the other topics. The book that Ben had just brought was a book about non-human beings. Myru needed this information to find out about what types there were. "I'll walk around for a while, you rest." Arditian didn't want to admit this. However, if he was destined to die in this place, it was good to know more about this world. The novel "Journey to Defeat the Demon King" it did not explain much about the Velreidom family, surely because the family had already been destroyed and almost wiped out at the beginning of the story. For now, he learned the basic information about the kingdom of Hex. The territories and the lords in each territory were detailed. In the first volume, it was briefl

Taking a rag that was lying around, I put my hand into the statue's mouth, took the hand that was inside, and adjusted the red liquid so that it wouldn't spill out. "I didn't expect the pranks of my two younger siblings to be so clever." Yes, it was Roni. He was always curious about everything and made references to children's horror stories become real. Myru knew because he had seen Roni several times carrying a fake hand that he had made from a twig. If you were a scared person, you would have thought it was a skeleton hand. My brother is a genius. Myru then took his brother's magic wood and put it away. He stopped for a moment when he heard a strange sound from the direction of the trees, his eyes kept searching but found nothing. I finally turned around and almost jumped in surprise when I heard the shadows in the distance watching him. Since when was that old man there?! Myru narrowed his eyes at his servant."Didn't I tell you to rest?" "There's no way I'm letting the young

Myru looked at the land and wondered. " A magic circle?"Stone of eternal misfortune quickly replied. [This is not a magic circle, magic cannot be used here.]Myru thought, whatever it was he couldn't find the answer.

Ah crap, it hurts like hell.I know it's not the first time I've died but... the pain of being crushed made Myru's body motionless. This body was ready to slowly die until it finally ran out of blood and was lifeless.Myru coughed a few times. He held his chest-beating weaker and weaker every time he breathed.The thick liquid spread to various places. The ground, as well as the rocks near Myru, made the place like a pool of fresh blood.After that, Myru closed his eyes completely.The flowing blood was still absorbed into the ground, passing through the stonework. Except... one stone that was pitch black next to his head. The stone magically lapped up Myru's blood, sucking it up like a hungry beast. When Myru closed his eyes

"Don't come any closer, if you guys don't want this girl to get hurt, haha haha!" Somi's face, which had been strong, was now tense. She must have been scared because there was a real knife approaching to hurt her. I looked around, the knights didn't dare to come closer because every time they came closer the knife was getting closer to Somi's flesh. I was the only one within a few steps of them. I pushed Roni away. "Run away," I said softly. "We'll just be a burden," Roni nodded and ran away. The bandit's laughter returned. Khahahah! Weak nobles, why did you run away? ah... You didn't?" Myru took a deep breath and held her small bag. " Sir, wouldn't it be better to ambush an older child rather than a little kid like that?" The bandit looked at me in surprise. "Hmm unlike the little kid you're holding, I don't have any magic or swordsmanship at all, the point is I'm similar to an ordinary person. It will be difficult for me to fight you. And even if you fail, at least you can

I raised my head when the carriage stopped. Looking forward were Somi and Roni who were both staring at me. The heavy voice of the vice-captain made us all look outside. The vice-captain now opened the door and checked on the state of everyone inside the carriage. The person who was usually laughing full of jokes now looked serious while still smiling. The long sword that was always in the side area of his waist was now at arm's length on guard. "Yong master, young miss. Wait a moment, our knight will take care of this." Just from the open door, Myru could see a group of bandits surrounding our party. "Khahahaha! Hand over all your treasures you noble blood!" They looked numerous and also enough to make a large circle outside our sizable party. Their clothes looked dirty, the bandits' faces were typical of people who hadn't bathed in weeks, laughing loudly and various weapons were around them. I asked. "Can you guys handle it?" The vice-captain laughed lightly. "Young master,

Day two in the morning. Myra woke up in the guesthouse that Velreidom had reserved. Quickly getting ready with Ben's help, Myru then went downstairs, towards the lobby as well as the dining room.Seen there, the knights were sitting together with the other guests, there... the Marquess and Marquis were sitting together along with the twins.Myru thought that he might as well go there."I'm so scared, Last night our brother's carriage was broken in the middle of the road and his treasure got taken away under the bandits. Fortunately, my brother's life is safe and he is now resting."A customer vented, sadness filling his face. Another person spoke. "Hah! That's why I told you and your brother to hire a knight! Your brother since yesterday has been stubborn. He keeps thinking that the Boundless Abyss region will always be safe, even though there have been three cases three times in that place and its surroundings!"I glanced at Ben. "What is it?"As expected of Ben he answered quickly a
