2024-10-29 19:42:56Min-yin stared at Evangelist with wide eyes. Awakening just like Argus? That was something big, on top the Thunder Goddess, Evangelist entertained a child's requests? What was the world coming to?
“You offered him a fight?”
Min-yin watched as Evangelist nodded.
“So what was the outcome of the fight?”
Evangelist looked at her nearly empty cup and looked back at Min-yin. “I lost, he managed to make me use my left hand to block his attack after I said I won't.”
The latter was stupefied beyond belief, an A-ranked hunter lost to a mere child? No matter what kind of prodigy he is, it should've been a squash match. She found herself licking her lips subconsciously, a strong man. Arthur was indeed becoming a strong man, Min-yin had to keep her fangirlish side under control.
However, her gestures weren't missed by Evangelist, she just shook her head. She knew how her friend could be once she starts her fantasies about her knights in shining armor rescuing her, the damsel in distress. “Min-yin, He is still a child you know that right? Here's barely 18.”
Min-yin was flastered, she poked her fingers together before it clicked. “Wasn't he turning 18 in 3 months? To me he is 18.” she smirked and decided to tease Evangelist more. “Or are you saying that because I showed interest in your source of interest?”
Evangelist resisted the urge to face-palm, what on earth is wrong with this woman? Was the thought flowing through her mind. She cleared her throat, intentionally changing the topic because she knew how her friend could be like. “ Anyway, since tomorrow is the preliminaries. Which hunting guild do you think will accept newbies? Cause I saw that multitude of talents from all over South Korea are participating.”
Min-yin just shrugged, she had no interest in the hunters exams but remembered that Arthur was going to take part in the exams as well. She propped her face inside her palm, looking way unimpressed. “Dunno, but I do know that the Crimson guild will be accepting, they always hog all the strong newbies around. No wonder they are number one in the whole of Korea.”Evangelist nodded, it was indeed true. The Crimson Guild was one power hungry guild, having one World-ranker as their guildmaster. They had powerful rankers in their midst and their gate clearing score was unparalleled. “Well it might be fun to watch.”
Having said her piece, Evangelist stood up and walked to the door, lingering behind her, Min-yin. They stopped outside, just a few feet away from the crosswalks waiting for the light to become green for pedestrians to cross.
“So are you going to retire from the Orphanage and resume active duty as a hunter?” Min-yin asked, looking straight at the traffic lights.
“Yeah, the chairman said that, the government is going to hire a new matriarch to take care of the children. They said that, the number of gates that had opened are too many and the other hunters are thinned out trying to clear them.”
Silence lingered afterward, the two headed their separate ways after the light turned green. Evangelist heading to her guild while Min-yin headed home.
.
Arthur sat on the top branches of the Sakura tree in the courtyard. It had been a while since he had discovered his innate ability. He was still giddy about everything that had happened, even if Aether tried to suppress those charms about Arthur he couldn't do it whole. The boy's quirks stuck.
『Requirement met: Used Blood Orchid One Time.
Stacked Blood Orchid twice. + 20 points allocated New class unlocked: CultivatorCultivating stage: 1.Black feather rewarded.
+ 1,000 gold coins allocated Tear of the fallen one rewardedLeveled up: Level 2Extra-skill, Cultivation scripture call of nature. 』Arthur watched as the pop up messages notified him of the changes that had occurred, he did not know, that if he used Blood Orchid he would get these rewards, and to tell the truth he was excited.
“Gold coins? I wonder what those do.” He mused to himself and pressed the cart icon opening the system shop.
『Arodis System store.
Amount: 1,000 gold coins
Healing drink: 100 coins
Anti-paralysis drink: 150 coins
Oars dagger : 500 coins
First aid kit: 450 coins
Healing ornaments : 300 coins
Featherine Ring: 700 coins 』
Arthur's eyes scanned through the shop list. He had tried to cash out the coins but for some reason the system didn't allow that. He settled for buying with them. His fingers clicked on the Featherine Ring and the healing drinks.
He watched as the message informing him of his successful purchase dinged and the items moved to his inventory. Opening the inventory, Arthur clicked on the Featherine ring and opened the information tab.
『Featherine Ring: a ring blessed by the fowls roamind the heavenly mountains. When activated, a fowl feather bracelet encase the wearers hand giving them a shield of wind for ten minutes and allows them increase their evasiveness and reaction speed.
Cannot be traded or sold』Arthur scoffed, but everything was good. He stood up from the branch and clicked the ring. It appeared in his palm and he wore it on his middle finger besides the Ring Of Archeon.
“Cultivation huh? It seems like my past life abilities are slowly getting integrated into this one, interesting. I wonder.” Arthur mused to himself yet again,
He jumped from the tree top and gracefully landed on the courtyard, the Moons luminosity beaming down on him making him appear more majestic.
It was at this point, that Evangelist had returned from her guild and she was struck in her place. The boy... No teenager to be young adult standing there under the moonlight as if commanding it. Min-yin's words rang in her head, she shook her head and slapped her cheeks before scarrying away to reflect on what she had seen.
Arthur turned around having felt a pair of eyes watching him, he didn't see anything out of the ordinary aside from the silhouette made by the large building behind him. He shrugged and headed inside, skipping bed all together opting to rest and preserve his energy for tomorrow.
.
Evangelist stood in front of the mirror in her room. She had her black lacy nightware on, in her hand she had a ribbon which she used to tie her hair into a bun. She stared at her reflection on the mirror.
“Am I truly starting to like him?”
“But that's absurd is it not?”
“Maybe, Min-yin was right.”
Evangelist shook her head and headed off to bed. Her mind tumultuous from what she had sighted. Tomorrow was going to be a spectacle, as such she needed all the energy she could gain.

Horneva stood against the gate King, a mighty crimson eagle with red mane and a large beak showing its size, to top it off, it had flames brewing from within its maw and it cooed loudly, sending ripples of heating omnidirectionally around it. The heatwave annoyed Horneva as it left her skin hot.“Tsk!” She clicked her tongue and reached into her pocket, thus far she had been using only her hands and now that this monstrosity had annoyed her, she was itching to put an end to it. Horneva threw the cards up, and they started to levitate around her.Ire burned in her eyes as she grabbed the Queen of spades and threw it with direct precision at the eagle. The eagle witnessed this and shifted most of its weight composition to the left wing, twirling its massive body around with incredible speeds creating small air pressurized circles as it evaded the card.Once evading, the Eagle opened its mouth and from within shot out a ball of searing hot flames atop of Horneva.

Ikkie stared at the bloodlusted oculars the woman had, and he grinned even more putting himself in a battle formation.

Ikki' s hand's were positioned on his left side as if a samurai drawing his sword.Tch!From his tailbone, six bushy yet fiery tails made from heat and aura sprouted flying through the wind.

To wrap up the transformation, a large dragging katana originating from the same essence settled in his palms.The battlefield was quiet, no movement made between the two combatants.

As the explosion died down, a bruised Arthur and Linux stood near the edge roots of energy. They held their breaths, anticipating to see the product of their combined effort to defeat the adversary before them. “Insolent fools,” Arodis's voice pierced through the dimensional rift as the last bit of energy circulating where he was dissipated. Arthur and Linux were astounded at the resilience the mechanical monster before them had, the attacks were enough to shake the void realm they were in and cause destruction on a greater scale and yet the target of their attacks only suffered getting his right side blown away. Their shock did not last long as the Qi levels started to rapidly rise, skyrocketing to a point the dimensional rift showed cracks in its edges. “Something is coming” Arthur informed his new comrade. Linux nodded, she could feel the foul Qi resonating around them. Having been connected to the Source, it made it easier for her to detect presences linked to Oblivion. Arod

86. COMMON ENEMY
Arthur spectated the interaction until the towering mechanical being hit Linux, he tightened his grip around his sword. Even if the woman was a menace and a thorn in his side, Arthur was not going to stand by and watch her get hurt. He dashes over to Linux and caught her. His gesture startled the woman who was unsure of what to do. She had been trying to ruin him at every chance she got and yet he was there to rescue her when she needed help. Why? Why was he so selfless? Everything was because of her, he lost everything. His friends, his reality, and his home world all because she was following a fool's goal. Linux looked at Arthur, “Why did you help me?” Arthur acknowledged her question but never paid attention to her. His eyes were focused on Arodis, the speed the latter had struck Linux with was something they had yet to deal with. His vision could not track the hand movement of Arodis until Linux was hit and Arthur was positive that he could track even light moving through

85. THE TRUE ORIGIN OF HUMANITY'S SUFFERING
Linux dashed forward and delivered a roundhouse kick to Arthur, the latter blocked the attack with his right forearm and used his left hand to grab Linux's ankle. Arthur twisted his body around generating enough momentum to send Linux flying but instead of releasing his grasp, he smashed the latter on the ground creating a large crater with Linux's body. He was not done, he stabbed his sword near Linux's face and chuckled. The woman was as fast as ever, she managed to narrowly avoid his attack by just an inch when she moved her head. But it did not matter to Arthur, he still had a hold on her ankle. Or so he thought. Linux kicked Arthur on the chin making the latter stagger backward, slightly disoriented from the power behind the blow. Arthur regained his bearing and launched his attack; the black sword in his hand acting as an extension of his reach as he swung it in an attempt to slice through the woman. Linux was nimble on her feet, she easily evaded a majority of the attack

[Where am I?] [You are locked in the subconscious of your mind by Linux, right now the person using our body is not you.][I... See. So what are we going to do Aether?] [The only thing we had been doing ever since, we fight! With all our strength, I have a feeling that our salvation is coming.] Arthur nodded as he looked at Aether, the main conscience behind his actions. It had been a couple of months, maybe a year, since they last, sat down and had a conversation. [So what's going to happen once you complete your goal? Are you going to return to your home world?] Aether shook his head. There's no world to return to, everything was destroyed by Linux's wrath. He clutched his fists tightly and bit his lip. He was useless. He could not protect what his forefathers gave their lives to protect. He did not deserve to be a sorcerer Supreme. Sanz was better suited for the role but his lack of magical prowess got in the way. Aether has to admit something he had been running from. He

Dante dashed forward, crossing the distance between him and the controlled Arthur in a second. He appeared behind Arthur after he relocated and kicked the latter in the back with enough force to shatter the spine of Arthur. Arthur felt his insides grind up from the attack, it was as if his back was being pressed against his stomach. He could feel the bones cracking from the internal pressure. Arthur staggered forward from the kick and turned around only to receive a boot to the chin uprooting him from his feet, launching him into the air. Dante outstretched his arm and a Chakram blade appeared in the palm, he threw the blade with precision at Arthur aiming to slice the latter's neck clean. Arthur saw the blade and covered his most vulnerable part by bringing his head forward, the Chakram cut through his left eye as it narrowly missed his neck. He landed on the ground and placed a hand on his eye, he had one vision now and he could not focus because he was hearing whispers in his

As Evangelist screamed in the illusion world, her screams escaped her mouth startling the others with her. The woman writhing at their feet startled them, they looked at the woman who was holding her head and looked at Arthur. “What did you do to her?” Lily asked looking at Arthur as she cradled Evangelist in her arms. Concern for the woman flashed in her eyes. She saw how protective Arthur was toward the woman in her hands, he threatened them the first time they met and put himself in harm's way for her safety. So why? Why did he attack her like that? The cause of the mental anguish the woman in her arms was the glowing eyes from Arthur, after they glowed, Evangelist behaved rather oddly for Lily even if she was not around her for a long period of time. Arthur stared at the woman unsympathetically, he felt nothing even when she screamed. Hearing Lily ask what he had done, he stared at Lily as well. “I merely put her in an illusion, if she can't win against her past she's weak

Arthur took a look at the gate opened by Linux, his eyes peered through the gate seeing across the dimensions. He knew he made a grave error in calculations but he had to, to match the power of Linux it was imperative for him to release the seal. He flickered across the battlefield and appeared before Linux, he threw a punch at the latter who blocked his punch. Linux kicked Arthur away from her only for the latter to pounce back and be on the assault once again. She diverted and blocked his attacks retaliating with her own. Each time their attacks met, the land shook and the earth split into two. The winds roared as they rippled across the battlefield and the entirety of the globe.Arthur jumped back distancing himself from Linux, he dodged to the side seeing the horde fire attacks where he was standing. He gritted his teeth and looked around him. The army of legions surrounded him, closing every escape route he had. But Arthur was not intimidated, he could deal with a majority o

Granger sneered at Arthur, he was a pest on his side. He did not know when to give up and walk away, the latter was always meddling in his ambitions acting as a hindrance to his goals. Ever since he got word of him, he had been wary of Arthur, he organized the summit between rankers in an attempt to kill him but that failed too. Arthur reminded Granger of someone. Granger chuckled remembering that one friend he had back in his timeline. He was like the man before him, obnoxious, he never knew when to stop probing into people's businesses until he got killed. Arthur looked at the chuckling man, he raised an eyebrow wondering if the latter had gone senile. “What is so funny?” Granger hummed upon hearing the question, what was funny? He looked up at the ceiling unable to find the right words. He contemplated his choice of speech before he began to reply.“You remind me of someone, a person I held dear to me,” Granger replied reminiscing of the past. Held dear? Those words held mean

The battle began between the last two individuals transported away by Midas. They were at a mountain range, the winds were chilling cold as they pillaged the lands like travelers, caressing everything they touched.The weather was humid yet tumultuous at the same time as it caved to the Qi the two fighters had. Standing near the foliage on the mountain peak was a young man standing at 5 foot 7 inches, he wore Israeli clothing consisting of a white blouse shirt, strap-on sandals, and a large coat above. On his waist was a rope that had a small bag connected to it. He was David, the one who had a blessing from the all-father. Also known as the Goliath Slayer. Alucard peered at the man standing before him, he was not that impressive. His body physique was average at best, with no defining muscle structure but there was something about the man that made him take the fight seriously. He could not place his finger on it, but it felt as if he was staring at an even greater being than he
