The NPC Got A System 44. Rite and Chaos In Plaza
"Excuse me, can you tell us where we can sell the results of our monster hunts?" A man with a bushy beard and a haggard face let out a sigh when he was approached. He had been sitting there for a long time, and it seemed like every day there were people asking the same question. However, despite his annoyance, he couldn't refuse and always answered their inquiries, one by one. It had become a part of his life.He raised an index finger and pointed towards an alley. "Keep going straight and then turn right at the intersection. There, you'll find a shop where you can sell your monster hunting products.""Thank you," the person replied gratefully.The man rolled his eyes in annoyance. "Indeed, how much did he hunt to the extent that he had to--"He was about to finish his sentence, but his words caught in his throat as he saw rows of Horn Chicken corpses being dragged along the streets using ropes, like a carnival procession."T-That's a lot!" he thought to himself."I guess I have to bu
The NPC Got A System 45. Bad Idea
"Let her go," Nash said calmly, yet his expression was threatening. The young man, who had been holding Merlene's hand, pulled her back and shielded her from the angry men who had lost their money to her at the gambling table. Nash had predicted this would happen, especially when he saw the three bags of money in Merlene's hands. Suddenly, Nash thought about using the money to buy a pass at the guild.But he quickly dismissed the idea.(Cut it off, Nash! Never mind borrowing. She's already hired you with counterfeit money and intends to run away. You're wrong if you intend to ask that woman for help.)He scolded himself silently.Nash hastily shook his head, dispelling the bad idea as fast as he could."Hey, who are you to this woman? Trying to be her prince on a white horse? Sorry Dude, but we have our own business with her, so you better leave before you regret it," one of the men stepped forward and tried to intimidate Nash with his chest puffed up like a male bird showing its gall
The NPC Got A System 46. A Slight of Flashback
Merlene's loud scream caught the attention of every diner at the renowned restaurant. All eyes turned towards her, causing her face to flush with embarrassment. She was used to being the center of attention, but this was not the kind of attention she wanted.Nash, on the other hand, seemed unfazed by the commotion. He casually took a bite of his steak, relishing in the taste of a well-cooked meal. It had been too long since he had enjoyed anything other than bland food like potatoes and processed meals.Shein, who was also annoyed by Merlene's behavior, was tempted to lash out at her. However, the promise of a medium-rare steak silenced her. She savored every bite with a serene expression that suggested she was in paradise.Merlene, still upset, pursed her lips in frustration. She knew that Nash was not obligated to follow her orders, but she still demanded that he stay away from Arcane."Why should I?" Nash asked, genuinely curious. "Don't you want to save your two friends?"Merlene
The NPC Got A System 47. The End of Flashback
"Are you battered again?" asked the little Chisato, her face showing no surprise. She carried a wicker basket full of freshly baked oatmeal cookies that looked too big for her tiny hands.Nash, with bruises and other minor injuries on his face, turned to her with an annoyed expression. He wouldn't have been hurt if those naughty kids hadn't been constantly looking to mess with him. However, he managed to dispel them all and make them cry while running back home. This wound was much lighter than before."Noisy, did you lose again?" Nash teased Chisato, sticking his tongue out. Chisato was known for being blind in understanding directions and often got lost somewhere. Nash met Chisato and her grandmother two months ago when they moved into the old house next to their parents'. Since then, they took care of Nash and fed him, even though he still acted stubbornly."No, I was just scouting the area before delivering some bread to Old Man Jenkins' house, you stupid Nash!" Chisato puffed out
The NPC Got A System 48. Hide and Seek
Crack!The sound of rotting wood being stepped on suddenly caught the attention of a man clad in iron armor. He turned towards the noise, but all he saw was a dark, endless corridor with no lighting. Shuddering, he turned back and tightened his grip on the iron spear in his hand.Meanwhile, three people were huddled in a dark alley with worried expressions etched on their faces. One of them covered his mouth and glared at the person he was holding."Shhh, be quiet! Do you want us to get caught?" scolded Merlene, annoyed that they had almost been discovered by the dungeon guards of the Arcane Guild.As Nash had made a deal with Merlene, she had promised to reveal a secret way to infiltrate the underground and escape from it. However, Nash hadn't expected the secret path to be right under the stable where he had slept a few days ago, hidden beneath a pile of hay."This world is indeed very narrow," Nash thought as he bent his body to crawl through the narrow hole. He couldn't stand and
The NPC Got A System 49. The Re-Encounter
"Who is there?" Adam narrowed his eyes sharply and kept them fixed on the dark alley beside him. Nash, Shein, and Merlene held their breath and stayed still, knowing that they were doomed if they were discovered, especially by the leader of the Arcane Guild himself.Pontifex, who felt uneasy being underground all the time, spoke up. "Perhaps it's just rats, Master Adam. Shouldn't we be returning to the surface soon?""Hmm," muttered little Adam. He continued staring intently at the dark passage as if waiting for something.Merlene screamed inwardly. (Hurry up and leave, damn it! I'm almost peeing my pants out of fear!)"Maybe you're right. Maybe it's just rats passing by. But somehow, I want to see those rats," said Adam."Huh, you mean—" Pontifex Roman hadn't finished his sentence when Adam stepped into the dark alley with a small grin on his face as if he had spotted his prey. Nash clenched his fists tightly, ready to cast the [Sandblast] skill to create a dust storm to help them
The NPC Got A System 50. Breaking The Jail
As Jonathan, who had lost his will to live, heard a familiar voice, he looked up and was surprised to find Merlene looking down on him from outside the bars."Merlene, you—!" he exclaimed.Clang!Fueled by a sudden burst of rage, Jonathan tried to step forward and grabbed the damn woman's collar, but he forgot that both of his legs were chained to the wall with an antimana-embedded iron bar, preventing Jonathan from using his skill."Tch, these damn chains!" Jonathan muttered in frustration."Heh, are you having a hard time?" mocked Merlene with a crooked laugh, which only fueled Jonathan's fury even more."How can you say that after running away and leaving the two of us here? You really have no heart," Jonathan said, his eyes burning with anger. He still remembered the pain when his arm was cut off and the shame he would bear for the rest of his life.Meanwhile, Dimitri lay on the ground in the dungeon with a blank expression. He looked very different from his usual self, with half
The NPC Got A System 51. Let's Go!
"Is everyone out yet?"Nash scanned the crowded hallway, filled with dozens of people with various facial expressions. Some looked scared, caught by the guards, while others were excited to finally be free. But there were those whose eyes were empty, devoid of hope for life. Nash knew who they were - the three Tre Devilla members, Jonathan, Dimitri, and Merlene.After much deliberation, Nash made the decision to help get Jonathan and Dimitri out from behind their bars. However, the crowd was not happy."Why do they have to leave?!" shouted one person."They're the ones who caused all of us to suffer and be held in this place. They should still be here, rotting to death!" yelled another."Yes, that's right! Don't let them breathe the air of freedom after our comrades were unjustly killed in that dungeon!" added a third.The threat made Nash, Jonathan, Dimitri, and Merlene step back, fearing the wrath of the angry crowd. They could easily shut down those people's arguments, but saying t

"Hmm... seems like the situation ain't good for us to talk anymore," said Aurora, glancing at Snow and Elaine suspiciously. "Meet me after the evening feast in the VIP room later. My private guard will take you there. That is if you're still interested in my offer. Farewell, Hero."Aurora gave a thin smile, leaving a charming impression as she walked out of the barracks where Nash rested. True to her name, snow traces lingered wherever she stepped, turning the room into an instant ice-bound mountain.A moment after Aurora's departure, Elaine wasted no time and approached Nash with a skeptical look. "You... how do you know the princess from the Arctic region? Have you been meeting secretly behind my back?""Re-really! Tell me, Nash! Princess Aurora is my idol! I'm willing to do anything, even endure this damn competition to get her attention. But why is she interested in you? Tell me your secret!" Snow joined in, pulling Nash's hand and making him sigh tiredly due to this sudden interr

The system had clearly and explicitly explained to Nash what Third World View was—a dimension where Nash could observe events in a location by projecting himself, but whatever Nash did or said could be conveyed to the real world due to the very thin barrier between them."Why can I only do this now?" Nash protested. If he had known that he could do this for a long time, Nash could have used this skill to locate his friends and Chisato.[Answer: That is because Player Nash has just fulfilled the conditions and requirements for using the exclusive skill: Third World View.]The system's answer made Nash furrow his brow. He then opened his information window and looked at his current player information. He hadn't seen it for quite some time because he was busy training Elaine in the forest and participating in the Sylvan Cup tournament.\\[Player Information]Name: Nash Ledger (LV. 40)Job: Swordsman, The Far AnalystTitle: Web-Weaving Warrior, Low Meat Slayer.

Nash had a strange dream. He was in the midst of a great battle where monsters escaped from the tower where they were imprisoned and attacked everyone, including civilians and players. The dream felt incredibly real as Nash could hear people screaming as the monsters chased and tore them apart, while the players were busy defeating the monsters and couldn't save the trapped civilians in the chaos. "What is this? Why am I dreaming such terrible things again?" Nash still remembered the last time he had a bad dream, which turned out to be a reality. However, that was because the dream was a memory of Nash as an NPC repeating a game script, but this time Nash was no longer just an NPC but also a part of Heaven of Terraria. So, what did all of this mean? "In a little while, Heaven of Terraria will reach its final arc." A voice suddenly came from beside Nash, causing him to spontaneously turn and see the figure. Nash was taken aback when he realized that the figure was someone he knew.

"Ugh, why are there so many people? I can't even find a way to escape," Chisato muttered as she got trapped in a crowded crowd at the waiting area for the qualifying participants. Prince Hassan had ordered Chisato to buy some snacks because he was hungry, despite the fact that Hassan had been eating all day, but he was still hungry. Chisato wanted to refuse, but she knew deep down that she was only surviving on Hassan's kindness as the prince of Iskandarien. Chisato would definitely be a homeless person on the streets if Hassan hadn't offered her a job at that time, although sometimes Chi felt that Hassan just wanted to toy with her."Sigh, I better get out soon and find some snacks before that food-loving prince comes looking for me and ends up disappearing who knows where." Chi clenched her fists earnestly before gathering the courage to step through the sea of people.Were they so curious about the masked participant?"Excuse me, coming through.""Excuse meee.""Sorry, sorry.

"Hurry, come in here. It's safer here!"A girl pulled the overwhelmed young man's hand, pushing through the crowd that tried to reach out to interview him. Without hesitation, the young man followed the girl's lead and entered a closed room that wasn't crowded—only a few participants who had made it through the second round were there."Whew, that was close. Wasn't it?"The young man then removed the mask he had been wearing for approximately 22 hours in the labyrinth and revealed his face covered in sweat."Yes, you're right. I didn't expect there would be so many journalists waiting for us at the finish line." He paused for a moment, then suddenly touched the girl's cheek. "El, your cheek is bleeding. Did you get scratched earlier?"Elaine blinked in surprise when Nash suddenly touched her cheek. She quickly pushed Nash's hand away and covered her reddened cheek out of embarrassment. "Ah, it's nothing. Just a small scratch.""Tch," Nash scoffed at Elaine's stubbornness. He then put

"Excuse me, oops— I'm sorry."An orange cup with a white plastic straw fell to the floor when someone hit it with her elbow, and she received a death stare."Do you wish to die now, huh?" The cup owner, a big man three times her size, looked at her menacingly. He had just lost a bet when his pick died on the battlefield, resulting in the loss of nearly 50 gold coins. Now, a petite-looking girl stood in front of him with a half-dumbfounded expression after making his last orange cup fall to the floor. "I'll—""Please, let her go, mister. Here's a small compensation for your loss."From the girl's side, a young man hurriedly stood in front of her, as if protecting her from the big and somewhat intimidating man. He held out a pocket to the man, causing the big man to raise his eyebrow in confusion. However, when he heard the heavy clink from the pocket, he decided to take it quickly."Now you understand, boy! I forgive you, I forgive you, hahaha!" The big man left with a wide smile on hi

“We surrounded all of them!”“Guard them so no one can escape!”As the crowd gathered, Nash stood triumphant, the victor of the intense battle against Vexul, Nekron, and Morgrath. The defeated members of the Arcane Guild were now bound, surrounded by a group of nearly ten individuals, ensuring their capture. Nash, wearied from the arduous fight, wore an expression of exhaustion and fatigue, yet a sense of satisfaction shone through.Vexul, his teeth gritted in frustration, refused to accept his defeat, his eyes filled with a fiery determination that mirrored his unyielding spirit. "This... this cannot be! I will not accept this outcome!"Nash, with a stoic gaze, addressed Vexul, his voice laced with weariness yet an unwavering resolve. "Your arrogance blinds you, Vexul. Accept your defeat with some semblance of grace."Meanwhile, Morgrath, filled with desperation, made a futile attempt to escape the clutches of his captors. However, his efforts were in vain as he found himself surroun

“Keurgh!”Nash engaged in a fierce battle against Vexul, the master of spatial manipulation, Nekron, a half-necromancer with dark magic at his disposal, and Morgrath, a relentless melee fighter with devastating burst skills. The clash between their abilities pushed Nash to the brink of exhaustion.[Warning: Your HP is in dangerous state. Please take a rest or drink a Health Potion to restore your HP.](Damn! I don’t have time even to pull a potion right now!)“Come! Flame Slash!”Unleashing his flame sword, a powerful weapon he had acquired from a previous battle, Nash fought with all his might. The flames danced and crackled, striking at his opponents with searing intensity. However, Vexul's space skill proved to be a formidable defense, as he effortlessly dodged and evaded Nash's fiery onslaught.“Keh—it’s that all you got after babbling and bragging? You’re just a trash, Nash. A big trash.”“I’ll kill that motherfucker with my fist!” Morgrath charged forward and released a hard blo

117. Meeting With Them Again (1)As the excitement of their victory subsided, Nash felt a sense of exhaustion creeping in. He yearned for a moment of respite at the Safe Point, where he could recover and strategize for the next phase of their journey, as well as reunited again with Elaine and Snow. Turning to Dragonclaw and Gron, he voiced his intentions.“I think it's time for me to head to the Safe Point and take a breather. We've earned it after that intense battle."Dragonclaw grinned mischievously, his eyes gleaming with playful sarcasm. "Oh, so The Mimic, the mighty fire-wielder, needs a little rest, huh? Can't handle the heat anymore?"Gron chuckled a little, joining in on the banter.Nash rolled his eyes, a playful smirk forming on his lips. "Oh, you two are just jealous of my newfound fiery skills. But don't worry, I'll save some enemies for you to defeat."Dragonclaw feigned offense, placing a hand dramatically over his heart. "Me? Jealous? Never! I'll just find a way to han
