"lord Acestes one of the humans seek an audience with you" "let him in" "as you wish my lord". The ant went out of the tent and in came Ricus"What do you want human as you can see I am already occupied with sorting out a comfortable mode of living for your kind" "I want you to train me" "what" "I said I want to learn under you""..." "human what kind of trick are you trying to pull" "no tricks or deceit, I came here on my own accord after realizing how pathetic I am", "i do not wish to remain like this so with the hope to further advance I want to learn under you", "human your hope holds no meaning to me, my king has ordered for your kind to be taken in by us and that we will do but I will not go beyond my king's order". Ricus falls on his knees and buries his head on the ground"I know how shameful I am as a human asking a monster to be my master but that doesn't matter to me", "I have seen what you can do and I have yet to see what your limitations are, that alone is su
I come down from the cliff and slowly walk towards the cave entrance while monitoring my surroundings for any trap,The fact that there are no guards at the entrance makes it all the more suspicious.I kept walking towards the entrance expecting to be ambushed or to fall into some kind of trap but none of those happened and just like that I got to my destination.I attempt to go inside the cave but an invisible force pushed me back,I tried again but the result was the same."is there something wrong","!!!""hey what are you doing here, I thought I told you to be in hiding""you never said anything like that and besides the surrounding is empty so there is no problem""you shouldn't be too sure of your senses, this is the dwarves we are dealing""I have heard you""so, why aren't you going in""I can't, there is something blocking the entrance and stopping me from making my way in",He moves to the entrance and places his hand on it"hmmm""its a barrier""a barrier?""but something
"you heard him, take us there","guild master I don't think a monster is the right person to address the adventurers on an issue that involves them wanting to stay away from monsters""do not worry, I will only stay there to observe the situation and nothing more","can I not do that""you absolutely can lord Acestes""but guil!!""enough, lord Acestes is coming with us or I am not going either""....""alright".With no other choice he reluctantly leads us to the tent where the adventurers are.I entered into the tent full of angry adventurers with lord Acestes and Asa, I walk towards the center while lord Acestes stayed at the entrance with his hand folded and his back rested against the wall.All the adventurers in the tent gazed intently with rage at lord Acestes who shows no discomfort at the angry mob,They could not voice out their thoughts on him being present so they insisted showed it with their eyes that seems to be cursing at him."I was told you are all planning on leavi
To an elf their honor is their everything, they pride their very existence in it and an elf swearing on the entire households honor is the same thing as laying down their lives.The Dwarven representative knew of that characteristics in the elves that is why he was so quick to believe Kyfir."follow me, I will take you to our leader""thank you we will really appreciate that","see I told you it would workout somehow" "tch".The dwarves walked us through the tunnel with a lot of corners in it,The further in we went the clearer we could hear the loud sound of two hard components hitting against each other and the surrounding getting hotter.We went further in and we came across the cause of the sound and the heat,A short man with full bearded face putting on just a black pair of shorts with an hammer on his right hand and his left hand holding a steel rested on a table, His body oozing out water from his head down to the abdomen, He continued to hit the steel with his hammer with
Lord Acestes went out of the tent and left me alone to face the angry adventurer mob with their eyes all fixated at me,I turn my head over to Asa to help me out anyway he can"do not look at me guild master, all they want is an explanation for your intimacy with the monsters","do you not think it is right for you to give them an honest reply to satisfy their curiosity""I would have done that but they did not give me any room to explain myself properly""well you have the room all to yourself now don't you"?"Asa do you not also believe me", "why are you speaking this way or do you not know that you are further instigating them to keep on with their actions""guild master don't blame me, I just want to know how you went from giving out quests to butcher monsters over to referring to a monster as lord""it's a funny makeover that doesn't add up at all""how does it not add up? or have you forgotten that those monsters saved us from certain doom""a doom that might have been caused
In an Arena shaped like a circle and five layered settings inside of it are high class indigine of the south, The uppermost layer belongs to the gathering of the ones with the most authority like the kings of different race and the Warlords who have just as much authority as the kings, The second layer is a place for the high nobles like grand Duke's, Duke's and the Marquise, The third layer is where the earl, viscount and barons are seated, The fourth layer is where the businessman and the wealthy seats While the fifth layer is where the average citizen stays. In this case only the first layer down to the third layer has people occupying it while the fourth and fifth layer is completely empty. Fear gripped me when he asked me to summon all the leaders of the south under one banner, I couldn't tell what his motive was for giving me such an order his he planning a mass genocide or does he really have an announcement to make, There was no way of knowing which one it was and so
"wait", "before we begin I need to know about the viewers", "are they going to be safe staying very close to us" "ohh them"? "you have no need to worry, this arena is reinforced with a lot of barriers", "I made sure of the barriers effectiveness so you we can run wild to our hearts content""in that case let the fight begin". I watch as he stuck his sword to the ground beside him and went on to take off his upper clothing revealing his well toned body. I decided to start with weak moves to gather indept information about his style,I created two ice lance from my hand and sent it flying at him,The ice lance hit his chest, dropped on the floor and broke without penetrating through it,I made another ice lance and this time a more durable one compared to the first but the result is the same, Then I made a third ice lance and further enhanced the durability, The result still turned out the same. Confused at my actions he looked at his chest and at the broken lances on the floor
He slightly taps the ground with his sword and splitted it in two and i jumped upwards to avoid falling into the hole,then I felt a gust of sharpened mana in a form of a needle heading my way,I forcefully shifted my body away from the needles direction and it grazed past my cheek with no cut to show, "pow"!! Was the sound I heard as I felt a fist connect to the center of my back,While falling i managed to turn my body to see what just happened even though I knew I still did not want to believe it,There the emperor was in midair after having delivered a counter on me,It is definitely that skill again, the one that makes him appear and reappear whenever he wants,I need to know what he his doing and how he his doing what he his doing to be able to level the playing field because if things are left this way without me figuring out the ability then I would just be sitting ducks waiting to be slaughtered.The Emperor threw his great sword on the other side and clasped his hand toget
