“So, I listened to you and came here, but I do think a proper explanation is warranted by now, yes?”
It has been three days since they left the Zeala’s bunker. Lenna, who was in possession of the map, instructed them which direction to go and what places to avoid, though he has yet to divulge any important information concerning the next big Rift.
One day ago, the four travelers entered an eerie zone filled to the brim with knee-high red-colored grass. However, aside from the grass, there was nothing… quite literally nothing.
Whether it was human settlements, rock formations, beasts, or even Pests. The place was, by and large, filled with a vast emptiness.
What made it more unsettling was the sky, covered by a curtain
Apparently, Bin’s words greatly enticed his new companion. Unlike the past, when she was young and cared a lot about her public image, the current her was bold and restrained. She didn’t care about how she behaved nor how she would obtain what she wanted.It was a breath of fresh air, at least for him. Arbert and Lenna, however, weren’t so lucky. Putting it mildly, they were constantly pestered by the Silver Dragon, who incessantly tried to communicate with them using primitive signs.Of course, the bespectacled Lenna did not want to have anything to do with the woman. His skepticism and suspicions weren’t unfounded, but they were extreme, whereas his childhood friend was more welcoming to Jasmine’s attempt at communication.It took her no less than an hour t
The Pests were organized and prepared for war, however, the sudden attack of two unstoppable forces was more than they could handle.With Bin attacking from above and Jasmine decimating them on the ground, the abomination simply had no chance. They tried to retaliate, but, ultimately, it was just a vain attempt.Jasmine was like a raging storm, leaving behind her a trail of mangled and dismembered corpses. She fought savagely and mercilessly, swinging her sword non-stop as she drilled through the enemy ranks.Meanwhile, Bin took a more subtle approach. He bombarded the targets using Light Magic, which took the form of rain of arrows, piercing anything in their way.They had been fighting for only a couple of minutes yet the Rifts and the Pests
“Ugh! Always running on his own!”Jasmine angrily stomped the ground and glared at the hole. After a long time in silence, she put on the bracelet and quickly tested it. Arbert hesitantly tried to test her but was too scared to use any force, though it’s not like he could overpower her.In the end, he stood a couple of meters away and watched as Jasmine groaned in pain and fell to her knees. Although she has an exceptional constitution, the bracelet was not that compatible with her physique, probably due to the absence of Link Points.However, after suffering through excruciating pain for five minutes, Jasmine clenched her fists and stood up. Particles of Mana were emanating from her body only to be pulled toward the bracelet second after.&nb
“Y-you can’t! Stop!”Arbert tried to stop Jasmine from overexerting herself but his words of worry and warning fell to deal ears.The Silver Dragon, now basked in a mix of resplendent silver and blue lights, was literally unstoppable. She was blowing things up and jumping from one small Rift to the other, breaking it with just the pressure emitting from her.The hundreds of Pests did offer a bit of resistance but, ultimately, they were slaughtered. However, the bracelet was intrinsically incompatible with her, and though her constitution was strong enough to handle the insane influx of Mana, it nevertheless could not hold on forever.Arbert stood at the back, protected by a blinding barrier conjured by Jasmine.
With Lenna rescued and the mysterious yet aggressive crimson shade, Bin wanted to leave this underground place, however, he was quickly stopped.Lenna insisted that they explored this crystal-filled clave, hoping to find something tha
Jasmine was uncooperative and refused to involve herself with Jasbin and his team. Nevertheless, Arbert did his best and succeeded in quelling the tense atmosphere.The only exception was Jasbin, who did not take it well when Jasmine pushed him. “You used Black Magic in the past, right? How did you cleanse your body?”Upon the mention of the taboo magic, Lenna could not hold back his curiosity and asked. Alas, Bin did not give him any response and just walked on ahead.Life as A Servant Chapter 477 : The Blood Den (3)
Jasmine’s attack erased the large bow-wielding Pest from existence. Both its corpse and arms were engulfed by the flashing sword, leaving nothing but a turbulent tornado of silver energy in their place.However, neither sh
Bin’s eyes fluttered then slowly opened. He felt weight on his thighs and chest and when he looked down, he saw Jasmine sound asleep. She had a habit of hugging him in the middle of sleep and half of her body would be pressed against his. It has been a year and a half since they started dating and the embarrassment of sleeping naked or half-naked was no more. Their relationship only got better and they even moved to a new place with Nina, though it wasn’t far from Emilia and Elise. He wasn’t interested in getting a proper job, nevertheless, he did find an entertaining habit, which was quickly developed. With Jasmine’s support and Bert’s countless acquaintances, Bin had opened a cozy small café in a relatively empty street. It wasn’t the best of locations, but he did not care. Bin was fo
Brule River Boreal Forest State, Russia. The forest, excluding wild beasts, was generally devoid of humans. However, today, it was the total opposite. The Russian Government dispatched its military and barricaded the huge region. Jets were flying through the air, trying to scout the ground and eliminate the legions of Pests stationed around the river and in-between the countless trees. However, the most eye-catching thing was the crimson crack hanging in the sky, its blood-red light outshining even the sun. Its mere presence brought for a foreboding and eerie atmosphere as well as a thick fog of the same color. Although well-equipped, the Russian Government did not act recklessly or rashly. They kne
“I won’t be away for long, okay?” “Promise?” Nina, looking a bit sad, lowered her head and tried not to cry. To appease her, Bin gave her a tight hug and repeatedly reassured her that everything will be alright. It has been ten days since his return to Earth and though no one forced him to act, he deemed now as the right time to get rid of the Rifts once and for all. Fortunately, there were no spotted Rifts in M-nation, therefore, Bin would soon have to leave for other countries. “Next time, I’ll bring you to fun places! I will bring gifts back with me, too!” Jasmine also hugged Nina and playfully pulled her c
“Sorry for the wait.”-Angelica “It’s fine.” Replied Bin as he sat back down next to Jasmine and smiled at her parents. While they discussed things, he spent some time chatting with the servants and managed to clear things up with Hyue. It was a good decision to come here and mend past relationships now that he was moving on and turning a new leaf. Unlike earlier, Theodore looked calmer but he was still glaring at him. As for Angelica, her expression was never-changing and, as always, unreadable. “My husband and I are not against your relationship, Bin. I only ask that you take good care of her.” “It shall be done, Madam.” “It better do! If I hear
Bin and Jasmine walked for a while before they returned to the car.“I should be the one ‘walking you home’. Sadly, I don’t have a driver’s license.”Bin sighed and watched as she drove him back to the villa. The trip back home felt brief as they talked on the way, but when they reached their destination, the two were silent.“If you have nothing to do, let’s meet tomorrow.” Suggested Bin as he looked at the white-haired Silver Dragon.Of course, Jasmine agreed with a meek nod. As he was about to get off, she abruptly stretched her arm and grabbed his, thus making him halt his actions.“Jasmine?”
Late at night, after the family had dinner and everyone retreated to their rooms, Bin went downstairs and, as he had expected, found Emilia in the kitchen. She absent-mindedly looked at the dining table and not even his arrival was noticed. Only when he pulled a chair and sat right next to her did she twitch and look at him. “Mother, you’re still worried?” He faintly smiled and gently grasped her hands, which eased the frown on her face. “How can I not be when my son refuses to listen to reason? Everytime, I get to see you for a brief time and then you leave.” “
Barely half a day after he woke up, Bin was in perfect health. However, Ann insisted that stays for two additional days, to which he nodded in obedience. As expected, he received many visits from Bert and the rest. Elise and, especially, Emilia, came every couple of hours to check on him and bring food. “Umm… so, there’s a matter that warrants an explanation. But, I think it’s better to wait till you come home.” Elise, fidgeting, peeled an orange while uttering those vague words. “It would have been better if you stayed silent.” “I was just warning you. At least, that way, you won’t be as surprised. Just brace yourself… okay?” Life as A Servant
When Bin finally regained his consciousness and opened his eyes, he found himself in an overly-extravagant and spacious hospital room. He took a couple of seconds to look around before slowly sitting up.He wasn’t particularly injured and the overwhelming exhaustion he was subjected to prior and after opening the portal was completely gone, fortunately.“Bin.”Somewhat softly called out to him, thus did his gaze jump to the source of the voice. He was facing Elise, Emilia, and, unexpectedly, the now grown-up Ryne. The three were sitting on a wide leather sofa and chatting quietly only to be startled by his sudden awakening.His mother ran to his side and supported him, fearing that he was experiencing pain. Life as A Servant
“Hurry up, Bin!” Although she was fending off the horde of Pests, Jasmine could not fight forever. She remained close to Bin and continuously swung her sword at any incoming enemies. At the same time, Bin was strengthening his connection with the white crystal. Slowly but surely, a gentle wave of white light flowed from within his body and started taking the shape of a human-sized portal. Unfortunately, Jasmine was reaching her limits and ended up getting blasted far away. Her body crashed on the ground and rolled a couple of times. Although she hastily got back on her feet and ran back, it wasn’t fast enough to stop the Pests from reaching Bin. With all his concentration focused on the connection, Bin could not defend himChapter 495 : Reunion
