(Is there such a thing?) Cole's eyebrow raises. “Buried Treasure?” Alicia waves her hand gently. “Don’t take it to heart Lord Cole, it's just an old legend from the Cafia Kingdom, that some king put his important belonging and treasure and hid it in Edel.” Cole nodded. “The story is made up for the people to give them hope that their land is special.” (Well… wait!) Suddenly something clicked. (Back in the story, the run-down mansion where Faust woke up was hit by an earthquake… then he was removed from a coma.) Cole put his hand on his chin trying to remember something. (I think he still has one caretaker, an unknown person who lives in the village that takes care of him when everyone left him… the caretaker was never explored… but the thing is, the caretaker got back after the earthquake and didn’t found Faust in the room.) (And that is because when the earthquake hit, Faust began to walk around and he found an opening in the ground.) “But your land is special.” Alicia l
"Leon Muller"Cole repeated the name that Haaken said."Yes, My Lord, Leon Muller, we heard that he acted differently almost overnight, from what we heard Leon Muller is a noble who likes to assault women and drink with every noble he knew, he was trying to build connection with his fellow nobles."Cole nodded."Almost all of a sudden he changes, just like that.""The report of the maid being assaulted stopped and his party and meeting with the fellow also was reduced, to top it all, we heard that he is buying potions left and right.""Potions?"(It doesn't mean anything really, potions are widely used by nobles especially if they have some quest or mission to accomplish.)Cole then asked."There is nothing wrong about that right, Yggdrasil is also the same, we have people who sort and store healing water.""Yes, that is right My Lord, however, we heard that he is just buying and storing potions without any plan to use it or sell it which became questionable.""Huh? So he is not using
In a short period of time, the Yggdrasil group gather a lot of information on the West Continent.Actually, far from Cole’s knowledge.The people of Yggdrasil already began gathering information all around the world.This is due to the information that is spreading in the Yggdrasil.In one of the cafeterias in Yggdrasil.“Regis, how was it on your end?”Regis shook his head.“Nothing yet… I cannot find any information on those ‘special’ occurrences.”The man nodded and agreed.“Yeah, everyone is already intrigued by the news that Lord Cole can predict the future, and the right now Yggdrasil is in an uproar trying to find out the list of ‘events’ Lord Cole changes or protected.”“Yeah, Lord Cole is really a great man, well aside from the obvious, the great release of thousands of slaves in the Veremest I cannot think of another event in that Lord Cole might involve himself.”Then another man at the table said.“Nah, that event in Veremest is not important.”“What!”Regis's voice raised
(Book 3 Begins.) Just as Cole saw the West Continent land, specifically Pernal land these are the words that came into his mind. He looks at the plain land from the sky while riding the cabin. (When we land here… this might be the time Faust will wake up.) According to the story, Faust is bedridden and went into a coma during the whole ordeal of his family, he is lucky that he was not killed and someone was taking care of him. However a significant earthquake will hit the West Continent, this earthquake might be the source of why the hidden place opens up and this is the exact time when Faust wakes up. But how can Cole tell that the earthquake will come? That is about the impending war between the Dorto Kingdom and Cafia Kingdom, in the book this war was not the main focus of the book instead this set up the environment of Faust. This will also help Faust in his future plan. (I already receive a report that the Dorto Kingdom is preparing for war.) Cole nodded as if he knew ho
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
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
“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'
'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
