By knowing Azzim is still alive by having level 0, the only possibility that crosses their mind is that Azzim is in the first stage trial realm right now. No matter how good that news for them, they still look so confused and clueless.
“How is it possible?” Zul mumbles.
“Leia, are you sure Azzim were trapped inside the boss’s lair at the sixth trial dungeon?” asks Gaston.
“I, I…”
Leia can’t put any word to explain Azzim’s situation. The last thing she knew is that she found herself and the other two had already transferred to the seventh trial realm.
“I know he was the one who killed the boss. When he woke me up, he said that he already took you to the portal gate. I only have a blurry vision in my mind. A vision where Azzim supported me walking toward the portal.”
“I remem
After he grinds all the leaves, he puts them into the white clothes he picked from the dead Zircho. He uses it to get the extract of the leaves and then shows it to Dino. “Take a look at this! What does the alert system says to you?” asks Azzim after he puts a drop of the leave extract into Dino’s palm. After a few moments, Dino receives a notification. ******************** [Notification!] [You just acquired a drop of high concentrated “Enchanted Binahong Extract”] - Drinking a drop of this liquid will add 2 HP regeneration per second for one minute. Only effective for maximum of 5 stacks of the same amount. Drinking it more than 5 drops at the same time will not giving more effect, nor prolonging the duration effect. - Heals a certain level of small external wound in 5 – 10 minutes by putting this liquid to the wound. ******************** “At last!” says Dino. “What? Did we get the correct material?” asks Azzim. “Yeah. It does say the Enchanted Binahong Extract,” says Dino
After they get to the hill, now they can see the boat is slowly getting ashore on the bay. But they don’t see any movement or any existence of someone. Azzim is looking annoyed, for being too alert to the point he is starting to feel that he really looks like a wimpy kid. He can’t help but remembers how The Great Zarkhan mocked him before. “Shiiiit!” he grumbles and chooses to go straight to check the boat closer. “Hey!” Dino shouts in whisper. “Are you planing to just go there like that?” But Azzim doesn’t pay much care, so Dino has no choice but rushes after him. As they reach to the bay, they find that the boat is still floating above the rocky shallow water near the shore. There is one inmate laying unconsciously, holding an already extinguished torch. Azzim carefully reaches the boat and checks the surroundings. There really is no one else except that unconscious inmate. He then pulls the boat out of the water, and takes the scrappy paddle from that man’s hand. Azzim uses it
Only after he salvaged all the man’s belongings, Dino pushes the boat back to the water. And so, Azzim lures the zombie slowly to the water, intending to take it back to the boat. It’s not that hard for him since there’s only one zombie he needs to lure, not to mention how slow the zombie’s movements are. Azzim picks the paddle. As he is getting closer to the boat, he hits the zombie so hard. However, it’s actually not easy to take the zombie back to the boat, since he is too scare to be touched by that undead monster. “Dino, can’t you help me to put this zombie back into the boat?” “Oh, wookay!” Dino replies as he immediately enters the water. “What should I do?” he asks. Azzim hits the zombie's head, making the zombie turn a bit toward Dino. Now, the zombie is attracted to Dino and starts trying his best to catch him. “No, that’s not fair. Why are you….” As he gets panic, Dino can no longer find Azzim anywhere. He is just disappeared into the thin air. But Azzim is already und
He is not that high in the air, but he manages to flip once before safely landing with his two feet. That kind of quick judgement makes him realize that his insight and instinct in fighting is not getting rusty yet, even if he is back to level 0. Meanwhile, Dino is running away in fear, being hunted down by the mad two Rhea monsters. “Why are you running. You should attack that Tapir while he hits me,” Azzim whines. But he really has no time to whine at all. The Tapir monster is already starting his ramming again. Azzim waits for the Tapir getting closer to him. Only right before the Tapir reach him, Azzim evade to the right while parrying the Tapir’s head with the shield. He even manages to hit the Tapir with his dagger. The Tapir is stumbled as he tries to immediately stop his run, and falling over on the ground. Azzim knows so well that Tapir has a bad maneuvering movement, who always runs so mad in a straight line. However, the Tapir immediately backs up. It hasn’t shown any si
Every time he creates a kind level of friction on his fingers, that kind of spark keeps emanating so many times without him noticing. Only when the night comes, that oddity caught Azzim’s attention. “What was that?” Azzim asks. “What?” Dino replies cluelessly. “That! I saw something like a spark on your finger.” “Dude? Are you high?” Dino replies. “No, wait! Didn’t your passive talent mentioned something about a spark?” “Yeah, it did!” Only then Azzim starts to realize that Dino might have a talent to be a mage with an affinity for fire elemental. Not to mention that he is indeed having such a lively and floated characters which is in line with most of the mage monsters with fire affinity he had encountered so far. “Damn!” Azzim shakes his head as he looks so straight at Dino’s eyes. “Tell me how much mana you have currently,” says Azzim. “My Mana?” “Oh, why don’t you just check your entire attributes then. Just command “basic stats” after opening your status screen, and see
Two inmates are hiding below a big rock in a dry river. They dig a bit of the ground below that rock, and use that small room to sit there, a bit hidden from the higher ground. That’s the only thing they could do since they don’t have a safe hideout. “So, are we safe now?” “I don’t know. We better stay here. Even just to check the situation is dangerous. If you want to check, go check by your self.” The place is so dark, since they don’t have anything to create a fire. There’s only their whispers could be heard. “Come on! I still need a good sleep if we want to fight those monsters tomorrow.” “Why don’t you watch this place, and I go sleep first.” “Is that how you say your thanks after I saved you?” And suddenly, there’s another voice appears. “It’s okay, you both can go sleep.” That’s when those two inmates realize the existence of some unknown inmate with them in the dark place. “Who are…” But they are too late. Both of those inmates’ neck already been slashed by a dagger.
On the 21st day, Azzim takes Dino to leave the small island. The goal is not to hunt monsters to collect experience, but to collect items.Azzim knows, at least most inmates had died in the mainland. That way, he could pick up the items they left behind without having to come face to face with them. Even if he couldn't avoid a confrontation, at least Azzim is pretty sure those inmates are already not in their best condition to fight.Meanwhile, Dino is getting more and more excited in trying to create fire in his palm. His mana usage efficiency is still poor, therefore, he always runs out of mana in no time. After then, he would be busy paying attention to his slow mana regeneration.“Don't be reckless spending mana like that. The more often you empty your mana pool, the faster your fatigue level will rise,” says Azzim.“Yeaah!” Dino replies, already looking so tired, even though they haven’t marched that far.Not long after that, he already feels so bored. Not knowing what to do, Din
It shuts Dino silent to swallow all of that information. He never thought that the system would go that far to make sure anyone would have a way to work together in this crazy set up of environment. However, he still couldn’t understand, why would the system offer the reward like getting so much experience by killing higher level inmates who are not in the same party. He couldn’t help but thinking, why would they create such a situation that would lead people to kill with each other. “Why? Why did they create such a situation like this? What’s the purpose of all of these trials they gave to us?” Dino asks with a gloomy face. “I think that’s enough information for you to reconsider your option,” says Azzim as he puts a few of those items into Dino’s lap. “You have the freedom to chose whether you want to join me or not. I wouldn’t mind either, if you choose to leave me now.” And then, Azzim realizes that they wouldn’t be able to carry more items than what they already have. There’s
She is so afraid, doubting whether she is able to land safely after jumping that high. But Azzim is being occupied with all the wolves by himself. Only Toto alone, who is now on a tree branch, reacts to Hannah’s call.“It’s okay. If you are able to jump that high, it also means that you are able to land safely from that position.“Are you crazy? This is too much!”“Just make sure you land properly without twisting your ankle!”As Toto’s attention is averted by Hannah, that mysterious inmate attacks him in stealth. When Toto notices the incoming attack, that inmate’s wooden staff is already so close in front of his face.“Dush!”That one hit manages to send Toto to the ground. But then, one arrow appears toward that mysterious inmate. It’s just a normal arrow, since Hannah releases the shot without any preparation while she is still in mid air.That mysterious inmate manages to evade that arrow, but he can’t follow his previous attack to kill Toto. And so, Toto gets the chance to regro
She approaches Hannah and tells her what she just learned from that pair of unique boots. She looks at Hannah’s holographic text to see her current level and finds the problem with her situation. “Now this is a problem. It’s an active skill. You might need access to Skill Set Command so that you can learn and use this skill efficiently. But I believe you’ve skipped the option for that access, right?” says Leia. “I don’t think she really needs it. Just look at Toto,” Azzim interrupts. The three of them look at Toto, and Toto just puts on his clueless face, not knowing what they are talking about. Leia changes her mind a bit regarding the importance of accessing the Skill Set Command. She then takes off the boots and gives them back to Hannah. “You’d still need some time to adapt with the change. Even without using the skill, the item itself gives you an increase for agility and endurance to your leg for a long journey,” says Leia to Hannah. “Are you telling me that it’s okay to tak
However, unlike Dino, Hannah steps in as if she intends to volunteer herself. “Please, take me with you! You should already know that my observation skills are the best among our group.” “I acknowledge your observation skill,” Azzim affirms. “But I'm afraid you are going to slow us down. Despite being an agility-type warrior, the current you can't keep up with my pace and Toto.” It makes Hannah look so disappointed. She can't deny what Azzim just said. She thinks that the only way for her to progress is to push herself to do something more than she currently can do. And staying together with her mentor, who is one of the veterans, should be the best option for her. She has felt it herself, how much she has grown so far. “If I really have the talent to be an agility-type warrior, shouldn’t it be reasonable that I can adapt to your pace given time?” she asks. “I know it the most, how important it is for us to gain actual experience on the field. But look at the situation first. I’m
Those Kelinians have observed how Azzim and his friends fought against the army of the wolves. They acknowledge those inmates’ abilities. But still, they are winning in number.There are more than 30 melee warriors there, and exatcly 13 archers. But Azzim and Leia are still looking so calm with their situation. Only Toto alone who is looking so worried at the moment.He had witnessed Azzim’s madness when he cleared the sartyr guards in the prison before. Not to mention about Dino and Hannah’s combination attack which has the potential to wipe the entire legion.“You guys, hold yourself. We are not in a situation to create another enemies more than what we already have,” says Toto.“No way! There must be something between them and the one who controled the wolves,” says one of the Kelinians warrior.“We shouldn't have let them enter our village,” says the other.“If only Toto didn't bring them here, we won't...”“For sure you won't be able to survive this night,” Granny Oja suddenly in
Hannah is so shocked, not expecting such a huge firewall to appear. She doesn’t believe such a huge fire comes from Dino’s flame.“Wo, what the hell is that? What’s happening there?” asks Hannah cluelessly.“They must have filled the trench with some oils,” Azzim speculates.“Not at all. There’s no way we would waste that much oil only to create such a scene,” says one of the guards.“We only put dry straw and wood, with so many dry Blaconut shells at the bottom,” explains the other guard.“Blaconut shell?” asks Hannah curiously.“It is a type of coconut, but this one has a shell that contains a lot of gas, much more gas than normal coconut shells.”And indeed, that firewall really looks so weird. The fire is suddenly seen gushing out here and there due to the gusts of strong gas emerging from the burning Blaconut shells at the bottom of the trench.Despite how high the firewall is, those crazy wolves are still so eager trying to cross the trench. Even those who manage to cross it, ar
Right after they receive that news, those inmates rush to the village gate. Hannah becomes the first one to reach the gate, and immediately climbs the gate to join the other guard on the top. She observes all the wolves around the graveyard and at the edge of the savanna. She is so shocked, not only by the huge numbers of the wolves, but also by the strange person among the wolves. There’s one mysterious figure in a goat head mask wearing a dark ragged cloak who seems to be the only human being standing among those wolves. What’s more, Hannah sees a holographic letter above that mysterious figure’s head, citing The Loser No 37. “Don’t tell me?” she mumbles with an awry face. She swiftly snatches out one arrow from one of the guards who stands beside her, and immediately takes aim toward that mysterious figure. Her reckless action makes that guard startled. Suddenly, that guard tries to grab Hannah’s arrow, seeming to try to prevent her from starting a war without the leader’s comm
Granny Oja leaves the room toward the door where Toto is waiting outside.“Please, prepare our guests the best meal we have,” says Granny Oja.“Yes, Mam!” replies Toto.Granny Oja backs to her fireplace and sits there. She also offers them to have a seat in front of that fireplace, while she serves them tea. “To tell you the truth, this country is in trouble. I'm not saying this to ask for your understanding because of the guard's rude attitude. I’m telling you because I need your help.”“What kind of help?” asks Azzim.“Well, it’s a bit difficult to explain. I don’t know who you are, but the problem is beyond our capabilities to handle, to the point we seek help from something beyond our understanding. That is the solution given to me by that voice, a voice that I don’t even know who or what he is?”“But he indeed introduced himself as Bang Sat, right?” asks Leia.Lady Oja takes a deep breath once before giving her an explanation.“I’ve been telling fortune to people, but this is th
There are fields of carrots and cabbages surrounding each house. However, all those vegetables looked wilted. Even most of the plants already look dead from not getting enough sunlight. And there is one huge house at the end of the village under towering rocky hills. The house looks so much different than the other house. It almost looks like a temple, being illuminated by several yellow glowing crystals around its circular roof. Those crystals emit fluorescent light of moderate intensity, seeming to be the only source of light at the moment during the day when the sun is still covered by the eclipse. “Please, wait here for a moment! I’ll go inside to make a report to Granny Oja first,” says Toto to Azzim. Toto leaves Azzim and the others, going inside Granny Oja’s sanctuary. After waiting for a while, Toto comes out to invite Azzim and the others to enter. &nb
After they walk down the hill and get out of the forest, they are now walking down the road in a wide savanna with towering grasses, up to their waists. Some even reach their chest.For a moment, Toto stops and his left ear twitches a few times, as if he hears something. Toto silently looks around him. This invites Azzim's curiosity.“What is it?” asks Azzim.“I don't know. It's just a hunch,” replies Toto. “We'd better speed up our movement. We almost reached Wortelville.”After saying that, Toto starts to increase his speed, even though he doesn't appear to be running, Didi, Nery and Catty have trouble following him. They have no choice but to run so that they can follow Toto.Sometimes, Toto jumps quite high and looks around while he is in the air. And there, he sees some movement of some beasts, stalking them u
