Instead of going towards the lowest field dungeon in Vosleno and conquer it.We stayed in Messue for six days.Legion reported that Alicia was added to the Black Market Auction at the last minute.So, I decided to see what would happen.But because of that shitty viscount’s attitude I believe I already know where she will end up in that mansion.If that happens then I cannot do anything about it.Just as last time, I didn’t ask Legion to look at the items ahead of time.I mean Legion monitors them and secures them so I will not be victimized by fake items, however, I told him not to tell me the list of products.I sat down in the large auditorium and I am wearing a different glamorous looking mask.The auction opens with a few trinkets.Artifacts.(I’ve been thinking about not buying any artifact that is already in circulation. Especially those artifacts that can help in combat.)(Noel might buy them in the future so I don’t want to mess with them.)Weapons.(No need for this.)Monste
I am now traveling to the depths of the 8 floor dungeon here in Vosleno.Back on earth, you can call my current activity a 'speed run'.There is no hunting or enjoying the dungeon, just achieving my goal in the fastest way possible.I use Tree as a vehicle and Legion as a guide. I wore a different mask to hide my face.We plunged through a Rajin dungeon.Rajin is a 4-feet monster that uses magic.They look like a rabbit but they have cat ears instead. Their arms are long and they can easily reach their short feet.They are covered in fur like dogs and cats.And their fur color also symbolizes their innate element.They are an uncommon monster here in Titan.Unlike Goblin, Kobold and Orc that group together and make a village or the loner monster like Troll, Ogre and Lich.Rajin lives in a small group of 3 to 5.And because of that small group they don't have a chance against us.Well Legion is enough for the 'hornless' Rajin.It took us 2 days to arrive in the final boss room.We op
It’s lunch time so I visited Yggdrasil for abit.When I enter the gate.The ‘Hunters’ led by Weston are already waiting in the shed nearby.“My Lord.”Weston slammed his hand to his chest and bow then the other 14 Hunters followed.Then Weston looked at Lily and looked back at me.“Is she a new resident, my lord?”“Haha No Weston.”I gently brush Lily’s head, it felt more grass than hair.“This is Lily Tree, Tree already ranks up to ‘Crown’... You can call her Lily.”“Oh! Congratulations. Lady Lily.”‘Congrats!’‘Congratulations!’“Thank you!”Lily bowed gracefully.Then I look back at Weston.“Legion.”Legion who usually follow me at the back, walk to my side.“Weston, there are 12 Gnolls in the Northwest Area, 1 Troll on the East and 5 Four-Tusk Boar on the Southeast.”‘Nice! Let’s hunt the boar so we can have a delicious dinner.”’‘Nah! Let’s go with the Troll, we need a stock for powerup’‘We need more manpower for the Gnolls.’I could hear various conversations behind Weston.Mos
"Alicia.""Alicia.""Alicia, Where are you?"Iggy is pacing back and forth in his office. He looks tense and he is biting his fingernails nonstop.Then his servant entered his office.Iggy rushed towards the servant and grabbed him by the shoulder."Do you have any news? Did you find her?"The servant shakes his head.Slap!Iggy slapped the old severant in the face."All off you are incompetent! Didn't we plan it already? Ha. Didn't we plan that I will throw her in the river and you will retrieve her downstream?""Yes, my lord we search for her but we cannot find her.""How can that be? I stabbed her three times! Three! Times! She cannot move or let alone run with those wounds."The servant stayed silent.The truth is they discuss the plan perfectly however because they use 'coded' words Legion cannot comprehend it.If Cole knew about this he would not make a move.And they will eventually retrieve Alicia."Argh! I will ask for some help! Bring me Allen’s Video Communicator."The old
Demon RealmThis place is covered with crimson like clouds.The air around the place is hot and the smell is sulfuric.A land of dry mountains and plains where in a magma known as ‘Demon Eater’ exist.Even the high ranking demons will die if they fall into this magma that is scattered throughout the demon realm.Even so, demons aren’t afraid of it or should I say they already learn to accept it.One demon in particular lives in a mansion in the middle of the island surrounded by magma.The demon looks like a young man and he dresses like a high ranking noble, he has dark blue hair and he is wearing a monocle while reading a particular list.Just like any other demon, he wanted to be summoned to the Natural Realm.However, with his rank it is close to impossible.So instead he created a hobby.A hobby wherein he checks in the demons in the demon realm everytime.“Why didn’t he return yet?”He tapped the ballpen on the table multiple times.Tap! Tap! Tap!“It’s been… What!? Two… Three M
“My Lord…”Marbas looked at me, begging at me.“Do I need to do this? There is still a lot of work inside Yggdrasil.”“We do… you need to get out of the real world from time to time.”To keep the ‘Equilibrium’ of the elements.We theorize that Marbas need to go out into the real world from time to time.Right now, we are traveling in the cold mountain of Mount Soyr.We are currently at halt because the kids are fighting Yeti.They are humanoid monsters, the size and build of an Ogre. They are muscular and their body is covered with white furs.Unlike Ogres that have two horns and a large tusk from their lower jaw.Yeti looks like a normal gorilla, a 9-feet standing gorilla.Jewel slither towards the Yeti and create a Troll illusion, a 12-feet brown mix with green skin monster with warts all over its body.A hideous disfigured monster faces off with the white monster.But the Yeti punch just passed through.Then when Jewel closed in she spit acid towards the face of the monster.GRAAAAA
Now that I have the best ‘Regeneration’ ability out there.I need to find an offensive Monster Ability or Essence next.I learn alot from fighting the Immortal Minotaur. It is not a fun experience to fight the boss over and over again.I didn't like the Darkness Soul genre from the very beginning.So in the future I need to prepare carefully before diving into one of those trials. Upon coming to Larismen, Legion searches for Essence users and I search for the monsters that can be used for my upgrade.Fortunately, one can be found on the eastern side of Kilswin.Unfortunately, it is a field monster, so searching a large area is troublesome.I plan to ‘hunt’ it after I secure all the villages in Kilswin.So I can freely take my time hunting it. For the Essence side of things, Legion only found a single Essence user in Larisman and it is a regular adventurer that has a family, and it looks like he is a pretty decent guy.So I give up, instead I plan to get one of the Essence in Sydhro.
I woke up but.“ARRRRRRRHHHHH!”A pain is crawling all over my body!Like I am being electrocuted.I wiggle my body trying to get the pain off my body, I felt like an army of spiders crawling above me.My skin was tearing up, blood gushed out from my body, but then it would easily heal up.This repeats over and over again.“AAAAHHHHHH!”I feel like being stabbed with a burning sword.My body is now covered in sticky blood.“WHATTTT…RRRR… IS…HAPPENING!?”I look at Marbas.He squitend then he changed into his demon form.The Lion with a golden mane.I notice that his eyes widen.“AAAAARRRRR!” “PAPA! PAPA!”My body is shivering but I cannot move.I can feel the hot blood passing through my veins.The smell of iron reeks in this room.I glanced at Rei and I noticed that she put both of her hands to cover her mouth.Her eyes were in shock.(What happened!?)(What happened!?)Crystal is shouting in my head non-stop but I cannot answer.She is washing my body with healing water.“Mentor! You
The third trial begins as soon as Faust died.The magic tool installed inside the room activated and a magic spell commence.This magic is a bit special, for this magic brings Faust's soul into a certain place.A dark place, a place where souls were trapped, a place where sadness and pain can be felt.Faust woke up, he look at his body and he cannot feel it.His body is also semi-transparent.He tried to touch his body.And his hands then flew to his face but…There is no luck.But that’s not all.He is also confused about what happened.He tries to recall the events and came to the conclusion that he died, somehow.And he decided that this is the afterlife.However, even though he realized this, he didn’t feel sad.He died, but he didn’t feel sad.Instead…He felt angry… for the first time, it surfaced.He felt angry when he realized that his life ended… just like that.After seeing the events that he ‘regrets’ the most and decided to do something about it.He died.He is angry with
In the story, Faust was swallowed by the illusion though it didn’t hurt him physically. The illusion enhances the feeling of ‘regret’. Unlike the first trial, a made-up story, the second trial is about looking back at the past. The person who will be under this trial remembers… will be shown every event in his life and every ‘regret’ in that scenario. Even the most minor event will not be skipped and the worst thing is… under the second part of the trial, the ‘feeling’ of ‘regret’ will be boosted. Faust, cannot escape this. No instead, he looks into it. Embrace this scene but instead of ‘regret’ what he felt is longing. Especially on the days, when he spends his time with his family and lovable animals. But this feeling didn’t escape the ‘properties’ of the illusion. The feeling of ‘longing’ doubles. But Faust pushes through. In his mind, he wanted everything to stop. He wanted to be with his pet, to close his eyes and simply lay down and rest. He wanted to remember the d
Cole put his hand on chest. ‘Phew… nothing happened… Good!’ He then looks around the area, looks at the mansion and then glances at the nearby trees. ‘I think it is safe right now… yeah… I have nothing to worry about.’ He then glances at Lily who is playing with the yellow wild flowers near the mansion. Relieved as he is, he began to move to walk away and go home. As soon as he turns a corner. He notices a noble young man wearing an elegant suit. He looks handsome and attractive, and he exudes a confident and distinguished aura. He stands next to an old horse that looks familiar to Cole. Cole stops in his tracks, with a surprise on his face, as he gazes upon the man and the horse from a distance. His eyes widen in surprise as he recognizes something special about the horse: it is the same horse described in his book! Carefully making sure not to be too obvious. Cole takes on a few steps closer to get a better look at it but still keeps his distance. The man speaks soft
The third trial begins as soon as Faust died. The magic tool installed inside the room activated and a magic spell commence. This magic is a bit special, for this magic brings Faust's soul into a certain place. A dark place, a place where souls were trapped, a place where sadness and pain can be felt. Faust woke up, he look at his body, the structure is just the same, however... he cannot feel it. His body is also semi-transparent. He tried to touch his body with his hands, it just pass thru. Then his hands then flew to his face but… There is no luck. It passes right thru like there is only air instead of his face. But that’s not all. He is also confused about what happened. He tries to recall the events and came to the conclusion that he died... somehow. Accepting his death, he decided that this is the afterlife. However, even though he realized this, he didn’t feel sad. He died, but he didn’t feel sad. Instead… He felt angry… for the first time, it surfaced. He felt
Faust continues the journey toward the deeper part of the cave. Even though he experienced a cycle of a nightmare, Faust didn't flinch. Some people might immediately run away and left the cave, but Faust is different, he builds up the courage to walk inside the cave. What he gained in the first trial is strength, though it is not physical, it basically strengthens his mind. The ability to accept death is something that few people have and Faust just earned it after the first trial. With that newfound courage, he dives deeper into the cave until he reaches the second trial. If the first trial is about fear, the second trial is about regret. That is right! In the middle of the empty room, Faust walks into the middle of it where a small platform is sitting. Faust was immediately engulfed by the illusion. He saw various things and events, and it flashes around him. The first event that he saw was about the little cat that he discovered in the village. He was so fond of it that
'Papa! He began to move!' 'He is now going down the stairs...' 'Oppps! He falls down the stairs, Papa.' 'He is now crawling.' 'Papa that guy looks very weak, he is now out of breath.' Lily continues to monitor Faust's movement. 'Papa... He going out now.' Gasp! Cole has been waiting for several hours since learning that Faust is already awake inside the mansion, he knew what is going to happen so... he waited because wanted to see Faust with his own two eyes. And now he saw the man in front of his very eyes. Thump! Thump! Cole's hearts start beating fast. He is excited, overjoy and he is holding himself so hard not to shout or make any reaction. In every story, there is always your favorite character, and for Cole here he is.... in front of him. A thin, sickly, white man came out of the mansion and began walking towards the cave as soon as he saw it. Faust looks like he was going to fall down anytime soon. (It's him, really him!) The embodiment of loneliness. The embo
“Papa? What kind of adventure are we going to do today?”Cole looks at Lily. The little girl with green vine hair skips while in the middle of the forest. Cole shook his head. “Unfortunately, we are just going to look around we will not hunt down monsters this time.” “Owwww…” Lily looks dejected and she looks at the sky. It was covered with branches and leaves from the nearby trees and the sunlight reflected on her face with the shadows of the leaves. Lily then smile and nodded. “I think it's alright!~ Jewel and Viper are still asleep, I want to have adventures with them together with Papa, we can do the ‘boring’ stuff for now.” (Boring!?) Lily looks happy as she skips ahead. Cole cannot accept what he heard so he looks at the person… dream creature, beside him. But Crystal didn’t have a reaction, she was just walking calmly in the forest. (Boring!? Is saving the world boring? Hehe... Well I'm the only one who know about this things.) Cole wasn’t hurt or anything on Lily'
When the earthquake hit Cole immediately started to travel toward Edel. Using Sky and Mylan’s help they arrive at the location without any problem. “It’s been a while since I saw it.” The one who speaks is Alicia. She simply request to see the state of her hometown and not engage in other activities so Cole allowed it. At first, Alicia is concerned because of the deal that he made with Cole upon allowing her to live in Yggdrasil. However, the contract, same as the others, allows her to receive the blessing of Yggdrasil in exchange for their loyalty, and the contract will trigger only if the person made a direct or indirect, planned, way to attack Yggdrasil. This is their initial concern about Alicia, but all her worries go away when Cole explains to her about her contract. “There was a field of flowers back then.” She pointed at an open field in a distance. (But there is nothing there, just grass… grass and more grass.) “Then when we are kids, we play at that place.” Then i
My goal became clear when I realize where I am.Leon Muller is looking at the potion warehouses in his private manor.“This world will be different from the earth far… far… different.”(This world will become my oyster, I will do what I want… take what I want and no one will ever stop me.)Leon closes his eyes and remembers his life back on earth.Back on earth, she was unlucky to live in a place where gender was the basis of everything, it dictates the society and who has power or not.That’s why slowly she changes, she adapted to the environment given to her to survive.And in the end, she did fine…In exchange for everything, she just did ‘fine’.It was sad for her, that all that effort was treated as just ‘fine’ and to be fair, she really did everything beyond anyone could expect from her.However, every action she did was met with one eye close.In that hard life, the only escape she had is reading books in between breaks, bringing her to this magical world she always wanted to c
