A decade ago, the Revolutionary Alliance, comprised of several races, seized the throne. The Draconian representative, Icarus von Augustine, immediately took the initiative to be the next Emperor. Blemished by his appealing display and candy-like words, he made the other representatives conclude their decisions to vote for Icarus to become the Emperor.Thus, after a single month passed, the Draconians began to cast away the other races and form a line that they should not cross.Monster Kins, comprised of Orcs, Ogres, Goblins, and Lizardmen, were immediately banished from the Royal Capital of Laplace. Then the Draconians conspired with the Beast people and ended up exiling them from the vicinity of the Royal Capital, which included Lown, Asmahan, Bluemoon, Terabethia, and Sigmaterrinia. The smaller cities, villages, and towns that surrounded the Royal Capital were occupied by the Beast people.While the Orcs, Ogres, and Goblins fled and lived inside the Forest of Argentina, the Lizard
Axel used his sub-skill, "String Creation," and produced a black long-sleeved modern hoodie."Phew, this really takes me back," Axel said as he slightly grasped the hoodie's sleeve."What are you wearing? What sort of robe is that?" Erza asked, confused as to what type of clothing Axel was wearing."Oh, this?" he asked as he emphasized the hoodie he wore. "This is called a hoodie.""Is that hoodie the type of robe you humans usually wear?"Axel thought of humans from earth and replied, "Yeah, I think."Erza chuckled and said, "Sheshe, anyway, it's time to depart." While she gathered a bunch of Mana fruits and covered them with cloth, she gently placed them on her back."Finally, the day has arrived," Axel said with an excited look on his face.The beginning of my adventure in this foreign land has finally arrived. I've trained my ass for this day. In order to survive this dangerous continent.*Dingggg!* "Huh?"*Assimilation in process: 94%*"Huh? What is this? I've never seen this be
"Woah, I never thought it would seriously be this dry. Even the floor has cracks. How did the Active River exist?" Axel asked as he surveyed around the Forest of the Dead, which was basically drought-free. Only dead trees grew in this barren land."The river? The place that we've met?" Erza asked."Yes, that river.""Oh, it is connected with the deep mine's pond, so it flows naturally with the help of the mana stones inside the cave.""Oh, so that's why it was still drinkable despite being in this forest.""Shesheshe, now let us continue, young one. In three hours or so, if we continue walking like this, we'll be able to reach the exit of the forest.""Then should we hasten the pace?" Axel said as he wore a grin on his face.While Erza stared at Axel intently, she said, "No, forget about what you're thinking. Let's just walk nicely."Axel wore a dejected expression and quietly followed Erza.I could just swing through the trees like Sling Man. But it'd be embarrassing for Erza to see
The ground shook entirely at every swing of Kibaki's great sword, while strong wind gushed throughout the battlefield with every swing of Balmond's great axe.Undead corpses of Draconians, Goblins, Orcs, and Ogres flew into the air as if they were paper. And were shredded into pieces upon receiving Kibaki's and Balmond's overwhelming attacks.While several of their comrades that were still alive fought alongside them from behind and were hurdled with undead corpses.Blood scattered all over the place as the battle continued, while Kibaki and Balmond panted heavily and started feeling exhausted after fighting for several hours."Kekeke, these monsters are truly commendable," the Draconian Knight commander said. He then slowly took off his black helmet and fixed his hair.He had pure white skin and a blemished facial appearance, with golden dazzling eyes and two shiny horns stuck at his forehead."Azard, Dalius, let us go back to his majesty for the time being," he said.Azard, the Drac
The shield barrier disappeared, and Kibaki and Balmond immediately engaged Barto, who performed a stance with his sword.*Clung!* The sound echoed throughout the battlefield as both Kibaki and Balmond's attacks got deflected in an instant.They both took a leap backwards and regained their posture, while Barto smiled mischievously with his tongue out and immediately rushed towards Kibaki, who was closer to his position.At that very instance, both Kibaki and Barto exchanged blows with their weapons, as bursts of sparks occurred at every impact of their swords' collision.Kibaki was being pushed back by Barto's aggressiveness, while Balmond snuck behind Barto and swung his great axe horizontally.In that moment, a barrier shield formed from behind Barto and instantly blocked Balmond's attack. While Kibaki was continuously being pressured by Barto's insane swordsmanship."I may not be a Weapon Arts user, but our Draconian swordsmanship technique can be compared to an S-rank swordsmanshi
There were three fortress walls that surrounded the entire capital. They were 40 meters tall and thick, and they had built-in compartments inside for soldiers to use and pass through. The view from the top was so outstanding that you could clearly see the entire city it surrounded.A circular fortified empire with three city compartments.The third layer is a large city circling all over inside the third wall—the city that was frequently used as the trading point for every race that lived in Laplace and the city that most of the commoners use within the Royal Capital. Which was renamed by Emperor Icarus as the Outer City.The second layer was a city where middle-class nobles and wealthy commoners, such as merchants, were allowed to get inside. The city also has many good housing, restaurant, and entertainment options, such as the Red Light District (Brothel). Which was also renamed by Emperor Icarus as the Inner City.The first layer is city-exclusive for high-status nobles, pureblood
After two more days passed, Kibaki, Douglas, and Balmond, along with several warriors, finally arrived at the border village.They were immediately tended to, as were the other injured ones. Bandages were wrapped around their bodies, while several goblins made herbal medicine for them to take.Goblins, who were the lowest among the lowest of the Monster Kin race, had greenish skin color, a fragile-looking body, and were below average in height comparison. They could only acquire Awakened Enhancement skills and rarely obtain C-rank Weapon Arts skills.To increase their usefulness, they studied herbal medicines in order not to be belittled by the other races."Elder Chiban, the herbal medicines are ready," a goblin said.Elder Chiban immediately ordered him. "Distribute the herbal medicines as soon as possible," in order to hasten their recovery.The goblins immediately scattered and distributed the medicines towards the injured warriors, while some of the Orcs started repacking their t
After absorbing the remnants of the slimes' mana core, I've once again gained another useful string materialization.But before I could test it out, several more slimes popped out of the bushes and started spitting gooey acids directly at me......Axel immediately protected himself as strings surrounded and wrapped around him like an eggshell. When Axel touched the ground, strings immediately burrowed deep within.The mana slimes started jumping all over the place and continued on spitting acid, but they could not melt Axel's steel string barrier. Then, in an instant, several strings popped out from the ground as Axel's string barrier disappeared.He then jumped above while controlling the sharpened strings that just came out of the ground. Piercing through the mana slimes' bodies and destroying their mana cores.Several more mana slimes showed up again and pounced on Axel, who was floating in midair. But before they could spit acid at him, Axel twirled his body along with his hands
