Myles reached the cave first and waited for Ria. When she caught up with him, he said, “Why is your face red? Are you okay?” “I-I’m totally fine,” Ria said, and she was not able to make eye-contact with him. Now, Myles was not a clueless man when it came to the things regarding women. “The cave smells a lot. It looks like those damned wyverns stored their treasures in the place where they excrete. If you’re not comfortable, you can stay outside. I’ll bring the treasures out.” “Please do,” Ria didn’t even hesitate to reply. The last thing she wanted to do was walk in bird poop, after all. Myles covered himself with vera and entered the dungeon so that even the bad smell wouldn’t touch his clothes. The inside of the cave was completely filled with feces. The treasures were buried underneath the pile at the center of the cave, where there was no ceiling. The birds probably excreted from that hole above. Myles warped to the top of the cave and released a steady wind attack with a th
As Ria was running back to the entrance spot in a hurry, Myles used his warp power to make both Ria and himself to cover great distance in multiple quick successions and eventually reach the entrance, where Sercy and others were there.The dissipating dungeon energy already made Sercy realize that the dungeon had been cleared, so she looked at Myles in a bit of a shock. She had expectations from him, but he overwhelmingly exceeded those set expectations.“Myles…” Sercy asked him without blinking. “Each of these wyverns are close to A-rank venerers, and I’m sure the dungeon boss is close to S-rank venerer. So…what you’ve done is very scary, to say the least. Ria’s strength is already surprising enough, but yours… I can’t even get a gauge of you. Who exactly are you?”“I can’t tell you who I am, but I can tell you who I will become,” Myles said.“And that is?”“The strongest venerer in this city.”Sercy’s eyes slowly but surely widened, but Biskie and Casey didn’t didn’t seem too surpri
At the Reverend Guild headquarters. “A Forever A-rank dungeon has been cleared?” The guildmaster, an old bald man with a long mustache and beard, was flipping the documents with his foldable mage staff. He was Harold ‘Reverend’ Green, one of the Four Great Heroes of Venture city. The four great heroes: Heavenly Swordsman, Reverend, Wise Servant, and Sweet Beggar, were all S-rank venerers who used to work as a group in the past and had accomplished great deeds over the years, and the people called them as Heroes when they defended the city from outside threats many times. The Four Great Heroes were greatly revered all over the country. Even the Halcyon Knights wouldn’t dare to disrespect them. “Moreover, this is a wyvern’s dungeon. The first time clear reward will be very great,” the vicemaster of the guild, Desmond Green, who was also Harold’s adopted son said. “I doubt they’d have let the bureau have it. I already sent men to directly contact the guild associated with clearing the
Forever dungeons were coveted highly by guilds because they were used as training grounds for their guild members. However, only the lower-leveled dungeons were preferred because most people in most guilds were ranked lower than C rank.Naturally, only the top guilds showed interest in buying the rights for the Forever ‘Wyvern’ dungeon that was cleared by the Dawn guild.After a fierce bidding war, the Reverend guild managed to buy it for three years for 100,000 gold per year. The additional rule was that sixty percent of what they would get from the dungeon should be given to the bureau.At the same time, a representative of the reverend guild was sent to the Dawn guild to ask them about the wyvern dungeon and also find out what precious reward they got after defeating the boss monster.Biskie was still practicing her dagger skills, trying to put a scratch on the wyvern’s bones. Instead of helping her, her divine dagger kept mocking her, saying that she needed to work harder if she w
The man in a suit turned his fist into that of a diamond and jumped at her who was sleeping on the couch.His punch was aimed at her face, but at the last second, Ria’s hand moved and caught the fist.“Nice reaction,” he smiled. “As expected of someone with a hawk ability.”Ria opened her eyes and coldly glared at him. “Who the hell…. Are you looking for death?”He pulled his fist and stepped back. “I don’t think you can break a bone in my body let alone kill me.”Ria’s hand was still slightly trembling. She got off the couch. “You still didn’t answer my question. Who the hell are you? And what do you want?”“I’m here to check your worth,” he said, smirking.“My worth?” Ria didn’t like the sound of it. “And who are you to do that?”“Do we need a reason for a man to want to find out if a woman is worthy of him?” he shrugged his shoulders. “It’s a natural instinct, you know, the process of looking for a mate. I came here with a bit of an expectation, but seeing you up close, you haven’t
“Why don’t you show me what you got?” He immediately threw his flaming fist at Myles.Myles spun the bone staff like a fan and blocked not just the fist but also the flames that burst out of it. The sheer air flow generated by the staff pushed the flames back at the opponent. Nevertheless, he laughed and then diagonally axed a kick up at Myles, only for his foot to be blocked by the staff. That didn’t stop him. He relentlessly threw in punches, covering almost 180 degrees, even though he was only attacking from the front.Ria who was watching the fight was a bit wide-eyed because this man’s speed was only increasing as seconds passed.“Mm?” The man in the suit kept throwing punches at Myles but soon realized that none of the hits were landing. (Is his staff changing the length between the strikes? How annoying.) He threw in a punch as a feint but then flicked his finger at the last second to deflect the staff out of his way. And then he grinned and threw a diamond-fisted punch at Myle
Gullian returned to the headquarters of the guild by riding a ten-foot-tall falcon. The bird didn’t land, but Gullian jumped down from the sky and landed in the training grounds, making a loud noise in the process.The trainees were shocked by it because it was a very loud crash, and yet nothing happened to Gullian. Only that a mini-crater formed in the ground.“Just how high did he jump from? It’s gotta be at least one, two miles high.”“If normal people jump from that high, the shock alone would stop their heart, and their body would be broken to bits. But Gullian’s body is basically hard as diamond, so he doesn’t even suffer cracks.”“Yeah, I haven’t seen anybody manage to even scar him. He’s really a monster.”Inside the guild building.Gullian came to Desmond’s room on the top floor and sat on the couch and began to eat the roasted, spicy nuts on the table.Desmond stopped writing the document and put the feather ink pen down before looking at Gullian. A few seconds passed. “Will
Myles and Ria came to the rooftop of the guild building, where the floor was completely covered in dirt.“Why did you bring us to this place? It’s so dusty here,” Ria said. “I don’t like this sort of place. It makes my nose tingle because my sense of smell is sharp.”“You wanted to learn vera, so being in an open space where air freely flows is better for that,” Myles released a faint burst of energy from his body in every direction and blew the dust away.Ria instinctively guarded herself with the wings. “What the hell?” She got furious. “You did that on purpose, didn’t you? Are you the type who enjoys seeing women suffer?”“You used your wings to shield yourself from dust,” Myles indifferently replied, “but when you use vera, you don’t have to move a muscle. You can just push the dust away without even touching it, in the same way I cleaned the rooftop for you.”Ria didn’t like what he said, but he really did make the rooftop clean. It wasn’t just something like removing the dirt, b
