During their journey to the city of Amethyst, Raphael and Ettienne have so far not encountered any obstacles, because they were taking a path that passed through the forest, not the path they should have followed.Ettienne said that if they used the trail it would be too reckless. Raphael also thought that it would be safer if they passed through the forest like this, even though they had to be slower because the forest roads were very steep, slippery, and there were also many bushes blocking their path."When do you think we'll get to Amethyst City?" Raphael asked curious about the rest of the path they had to take to get to Amethyst City, he was quite tired after walking through this forest all day."I don't know, just pray it won't rain tonight, if the weather stays like this maybe tomorrow we will arrive in Amethyst City," Ettienne replied not too sure, because he saw that this afternoon the clouds looked very dark, a sign that it would rain. tonight."Then, if it really rains,
Throughout the night Raphael was no longer able to continue sleeping, every time he tried to close his eyes, he was always startled by strange sounds from outside. So from that Raphael finally woke up until this morning.However, for some reason it was still raining outside this morning, making Raphael hesitate to go out, as Ettienne had said before, it seemed that now was not the right time to come out of this cave.Curious about what was really going on, Raphael turned towards Ettienne and shook his body to wake him up."Ettienne! Get up, why are you still sleeping too, it's already morning. Shouldn't we be moving on?!" Raphael mercilessly shook Ettienne's body, he didn't stop doing that until he made sure that Ettienne had woken up from his sleep."Oh my god! Why are you so impatient! Didn't you hear it's still raining outside, it's not safe to go out now." Ettienne, who was annoyed because Raphael disturbed his sleep, started to nag at Raphael."Explain to me why that is, other
"We'll be there soon!" This time Ettienne said excitedly, he also couldn't wait to get out of this scary forest, so he became very excited when he realized that they had arrived at the city of Amethyst."Are you sure? Didn't you say it's far enough?" asked Raphael doubtfully, not quite believing what Ettienne was saying. The problem was, a while ago Ettienne had still told Raphael that they were still quite far away."It's rare to find alternative road and now we are lucky enough to find them," replied Ettienne with a smirk on his face, it seemed their trip this time was not as unlucky as they had thought."Really? I just found out that there will be an alternative road in this forest." Although Raphael didn't really understand, he just shrugged his shoulders indifferently, as long as it brought them to Amethyst City faster, then he didn't mind going down the alternative road."But, is it safe to go down that alternative road?" Raphael continued later, he had enough to think abou
And sure enough, it was just as Raphael had previously thought that this bright-looking light was just a trap for them. As Raphael and Ettienne approached the light, they could see that there were lots of monsters there.However, the good news was that from a distance they could see that beyond the array of monsters was the Amethyst city gate. Looks like they have to defeat these monsters before they can reach the city of Amethyst."Even though I had hoped not to fight," Raphael said with a sigh of annoyance, he was currently very dispirited to slaughter these damn monsters."I will help you as much as I can, remember that we will arrive at Amethyst City, if we defeat these monsters," Ettienne replied, trying to encourage Raphael who looked very unhappy with the sight that was in front of them at this time."Watch my back, your part is the monster that missed me. You understand?" Before attacking the monsters ahead, Raphael first told Ettienne about their attack plan this time.Fro
Raphael and Ettienne looked at the strange scene in front of them with shocked eyes, still in disbelief that the monster they had worked so hard to defeat could come back from the dead."What now? There's no way we'll have to defeat them again!" Ettienne also spoke worriedly, not knowing what to do at this time, he was completely dumbfounded by this sudden change."We have to get out of here before they give chase," Raphael replied as he turned his head in the direction where they could see the Amethyst city gate in the distance.If these monsters couldn't die, then the only way they could escape was to get out of here quickly. Raphael didn't know if this shortcut was dimension special or what, but he guessed that if they could cross over to the Amethyst city gate, then they wouldn't have to deal with these monsters."Your way makes sense. Then we must hurry, they will have fully awakened," said Ettienne still in a panic, he quickly stood up from his position, having previously fall
For some reason this time Raphael heard that the System was responding in an uncharacteristically fast manner that took a moment for the System to respond. It seemed that the upgrades made by the previous System also affected the System which made him more responsive to Raphael. [What does Host need from the System?] “Could you help me with my mana problem?” Raphael asked desperately hoping that the System could help him at this time, he was sure that he would soon run out of mana if he fought the bull beast with his current strength. [Naturally, the system will remove the mana limit in the host's body, so the host can exert its power freely] For a moment Raphael was stunned by the answer the System gave him, he did not expect that the System would give him such an answer, he thought that this time his request would be rejected by the System again, remembering how the System had always refused to comply with his requests. And what surprised Raphael even more was System's reply to
With a loud boom, Raphael and Ettienne jumped towards the Amethyst city gate that was visible from there. Raphael hoped that they could actually get out of this place and wouldn't be trapped again.A moment later after jumping out, Raphael felt his body hit the ground hard. Instantly Raphael opened his eyes and the first sight he saw was the sky that was slowly turning bright orange.Unlike before which seemed like a pitch black night, even the moonlight only appeared a bit. Raphael felt that the place they had previously entered was really in another dimension, he didn't know why that could happen.Raphael came to his senses when he heard the cheers of Ettienne who also fell beside him."Oh my! Finally, we can get out of there too!" Ettienne could not hide his joy at this time, he was very grateful to be able to get out alive from the trap that almost took their lives."Luckily there aren't any more traps. Are we in Amethyst City by now?" Raphael asked then, remembering that the
Since they had just arrived at the Amethyst city, Raphael intended to look around the city for information. Raphael must first know how the condition of this city is, he also still has no goals in this city.While he was searching for information, Raphael would just relax for a while in this town. When he was in Crimson City, Raphael already had enough headaches.Especially when Sytsem did the previous upgrade, Raphael still hadn't completely rested himself. Not to mention before that Raphael and Ettienne were also forced to fight lots of monsters, right now they really needed rest so they could return to good condition."Should we find an inn first?" asked Ettienne, turning to Raphael who was walking beside her, remembering that they had just finished a very long fight."Yeah, it's better that way." Raphael did not reject Ettienne's idea this time, because he really needed rest this time, his body was already at its limit."You think we should take a crowded inn?" Ettienne was
Hearing what Catherine said at this time, at first Raphael couldn't believe what he was hearing, but seeing that there was no sign that Catherine was lying, Raphael came to believe that this news was genuine.Even though Raphael still couldn't believe it, somehow Catherine did it to make Andrew decide to leave Pearl City, Raphael was still happy with this good news, however they couldn't continue to be in Pearl City which was full of criminals."What will happened to get us out of Pearl City this time?" Ettienne, who still couldn't believe what he was hearing, became very curious about what Catherine had done to get them out of Pearl City."What is certain is that Catherine has done something to make Andrew finally agree to leave this city and continue our journey to the city of Sapphire." Raphael could only say this because he also didn't know what Catherine had done at this time."Somehow I even feel that Andrew will do something to us for making it like this," Ettienne replied fe
Andrew was not happy with what Catherine said at this time, he still couldn't believe what he was hearing at this time, how could this little witch dare to say such things to him in front of his soldiers like this."How dare you say that to me!" Andrew shouted loudly at Catherine without forgetting while raising his index finger towards Catherine angrily.It seemed that if no one was here it was certain that Andrew would run up to Catherine and attack her with all his strength because he was too annoyed.Even though she was quite surprised by what Andrew had done, Catherine remained calm in her place, not moving in the slightest at this time. Catherine reciprocated Andrew's treatment without releasing excessive emotions in return."But, you know best that as the Captain of this expedition, I am the one with the authority to make decisions. So, I myself will determine Raphael's punishment." Finally, Catherine also dropped her final attack on Andrew with the current facts.Andrew cou
There was a big fight between Raphael and the male bandits who came to attack their group. However, the fight didn't last long as reinforcements soon arrived and drove the bandits away.However, according to Raphael there was something strange going on here, there was no way they would just come like this, then leave after seeing help coming. Raphael immediately remembered about his friends who immediately left there to save themselves."What about them?" Raphael also intended to run towards the tent used by his Adventurer group, he wanted to see what was happening there.But, not to mention Raphael managed to take a step away from there, he already heard that he was called by someone. When Raphael turned around he found Andrew standing there with his proud face while glancing fiercely at Raphael."You! Stay here, I'll be interrogating the patrolmen on duty today!" Andrew also issued an order and forbade the patrol officers to leave the scene."But-"Raphael was just about to mak
As it got late, Raphael felt that the atmosphere around him was becoming increasingly tense and cold. Starting to sense that the guests coming tonight would soon bar their fangs at them.It's just that until now Raphael still didn't see any movement from them, making him quite suspicious of what was happening. Though now is the most appropriate time to launch an attack on the expeditionary group.Not only was it the middle of the night, but also because by this time the patrol members were quite caught off guard having already made two rounds of patrols and found nothing, so they had little intention of going out on patrol."Even though I was expecting them to attack at this point, why haven't they made their move even now?" muttered Raphael confusedly, he still didn't understand what the criminals were thinking.Having to be wary of attacks by criminals that could happen at any time, Raphael didn't move far from the tents of his group of Adventurers. If Raphael saw any sign that
It was only then that Raphael learned that Catherine had a secret place where they could hide if their group of Adventurers were attacked by criminals in Pearl City.That way Raphael was calm enough because at least his group of Adventurers could be a bit safe with the help given by Catherine. It's just that Raphael was a little suspicious of these criminals, weren't they afraid of the risk they would take by attacking the official expedition party from another city?For some reason Raphael thought that they were related to what James and Andrew had said earlier in the main building. Was Andrew keeping them here on purpose to finish them off? Raphael realised that what he was thinking was quite reasonable.Given that their group of Adventurers were troops brought personally by Catherine and Raphael guessed that Andrew didn't like this.It seems that because of his greed, Raphael guessed that Andrew wanted him to be in complete control of this expedition and use Catherine as his pup
Raphael had to wait a few moments for the argument between Catherine and Andrew to subside. After that Raphael also saw that Catherine walked out of the previous tent.At that time Raphael thought that this was not the right moment to tell Catherine the information he had. So, Raphael decided to immediately step away from that place to return to his patrol area.So that whole night Raphael followed his patrol obediently and luckily nothing bad happened that night. Because only one group was formed for the night patrol, Raphael could only rest when the sun rose. . . .Having not slept all night, Raphael woke up from his sleep at noon after the next morning he immediately returned to his group's tent to sleep and rest.When Raphael woke up from his sleep, he immediately came out of the tent because he heard a commotion that was quite disturbing. Raphael was quite curious when he heard that there was a noise coming from outside.What surprised Raphael when he was outside the tent
The rest of the night passed smoothly, thanks to the help from Ettienne, Raphael was not suspected when the core of the expedition made a check for trouble in the surroundings.Raphael, who was pretending to be asleep at that time, heard the reason they gave for checking the tents used by everyone.Due to last night's unusual events, Raphael heard that there had been a lot of whispers being heard among the soldiers as well as Adventurers. They were quite curious about what happened, so that the core members of the expedition made a sudden check.Robert and his two friends glanced at Raphael suspiciously, he suspected that Raphael had done something to make the core members of the expedition check last night."Is this your doing, Raphael?" asked Robert in a low voice, not wanting anyone else to hear what he was saying.Raphael shook his head slowly "No, I just went to meet Catherine at her tent last night," Raphael replied while telling the others about what he did last night after d
At this time Raphael was back to using his usual black robe when he wanted to act, usually he wandered around society with his casual appearance without a robe, now that he had to sneak into the residence of the leader of Pearl City, he had to use this robe to cover his appearance. .Right now Raphael was trying to be as calm as possible to enter the residence, he had to pay attention to his surroundings as there were many people standing guard there to protect the place. It's just that Raphael still doesn't know where the guards are.In order for Raphael to enter the residence, he first had to go take out the guards that were around the main building which was in a luxurious neighbourhood that had several buildings around it.If not then Raphael would make his target alert and he would most likely be chased by another guard who would soon come to arrest him and he would immediately make Andrew and his interlocutors become alert and be even more careful than before."I have to find
Throughout the day until nightfall everything went smoothly without anything suspicious happening. It was only when it was night like this that Raphael decided to meet Catherine, he chose this time so that not too many people would see him meet Catherine later.Currently in a fairly large circle along with several troops brought over by the Amethyst city government as well as the Adventurers were surrounding a bonfire while enjoying their dinner.Seeing that this was the right time to sneak in, Raphael gave Ettienne the signal that he would immediately go to meet Catherine first."Say something while I'm away so no one suspects me," Raphael whispered to Ettienne for help before slipping away."Don't worry, I will do something to cover your departure." Ettienne nodded his head understanding what Raphael meant at this time.After making sure everything was safe, Raphael slowly moved from his position and started away from the crowd of people who were gathering for dinner that night.T
