Peerless God In Martial Art 123 Chapter 402 124-133

Chapter 124 - Can I Cry?

"Roy! I found something!"

After finished the whole audition I returned to the Library Tower with Victoria and called Sonia as well. As for Ian, he helped Albert preparing the arrest for Berthold.

They say that they are going to commence their plan tomorrow. I'm not involved in their plan and not planning to as well. They can take care of themselves. And it's also a good idea to make Albert's new allies to work.

As we continued reading, Victoria found something about what we're looking for. About the hero in a certain fairy tale.

"What is it?" Sonia and I curiously looked at what Victoria's reading.

"Here! It's another book about hero. There are many of these books we read, but this one is different. The villain in this book, is similar to the hero in the book 'Hero Against Evil'."

"Really? Are you sure?" I asked Victoria.

"Just look at the author's name! At first, I just read it like the other stories. Then after reading the name of the author, I reread it again and found that the bad guy here is similar to the hero in that book."

The author's name?

I looked at the name Victoria pointed at and see the name 'Uneaten Beef' written there.

"Uneaten Beef? That's the same author, right?"

"That's right. This beef wrote both books. Here, read it first."

Victoria offered the book in her hand to me, then she continued looking for other books.

The book title is Hero Rama. I guess the name of the protagonist of this story is Rama.

The story is started as the young boy Rama lived happily with his family and friend in a certain village. One day however, things changed when Rama's father who is a powerful mage with strengthening magic is killed by a powerful mage.

Rama swore to avenge his father's death despite his mother's protest. His mother is afraid that Rama would end up getting the same fate as his father. But Rama still choose to leave and hone his magic.

Rama keeps getting stronger and stronger. He was blessed with several elements, and he can also use strengthening magic like his father, albeit it's far too weak than his magic. And there's one more unique magic Rama had. Which is Lie detection magic. He can tell if someone is telling a lie.

"…somehow, the plot is predictable."

"That's obvious knowing how much we know. And this story is for kids and written in a way so kids can enjoy it."

Victoria who is a professional writer before she died, explains how this story is targeted for children.

The story continued. Rama found out that the one who killed his father also killed many other powerful people until one day, no one is able to compete with that murderer. But Rama refuses to give up.

Rama trained until he can defeat a dragon with a single magic, and finally he challenged the mage who killed his father. Both of them are evenly matched.

The battle last for a while, and finally, Rama managed to seal the mage with powerful magic tool. Rama can't kill the mage, but using a magic tool, he sealed the mage who terrorized people and finally, peace come to the land.

Rama returned home and reunited with his already old mother. Then he used his power for good and build a kingdom and be the first king of his own kingdom.

"…and the kingdom name is Tatrama. The 'Rama' in 'Tatrama' come from the first king himself who is also Albert's ancestor." I said.

"That wasn't written in the book, but we can think of it that way. The strengthening magic that was written in the book can be considered as Aura. And Rama's ability which is lie detection, is now inherited by Albert." Victoria summarized the book.

"It's a good thing we read this first before we enter the basement. If we enter the basement and see the real history of the kingdom first before we read this, we might not come to this conclusion."

Just like I said, it's a good thing to find this book first. But it took us so long just to find one book. Good thing I just look for stories from children's books, novels, and history instead of looking at knowledge book. If I do, it will took us a longer time until we find this story.

"Now we found more clues. First is about hero. Then the author, Uneaten Beef. Just how much did he regret to not eat that beef? And lastly, Rama who we assume the first king of this kingdom which hasn't existed during the time you two were alive."

Hero, author, and first king. Those three are the clues we have at the moment. At least it's an improvement.

"Should I inform Albert?" Sonia thought of contacting Albert right now.

"No need. He's busy at the moment and we can just tell him after we finished the basement as well. Even if we told him right now, it's not like we can do anything right away." I said.

"Roy, you forgot another clue here." Victoria reminded me about something.

"You mean the magic tool used to seal the bad guy?"

"Yeah. The story says that a magic tool is used to seal his enemy. Maybe because the seal is recently broken, this Evil God guy returned. And he started by creating a cult about him."

"You think that we're fighting the same person as the one who killed you? You might be right. But let's not forget about how Rama and this supposed to be Evil God is evenly matched, and Rama needed to use a magic tool to seal him."

If the story is true, then this guy we're fighting about is the strongest being in the whole world. And now, this guy is building an army.

This time, I truly regret the fact that I didn't choose to run away right away as soon as I returned from the future. If so, I won't have anything to do with the cult and can live leisurely while on the run looking for a safe place. Then even if this Evil God truly revived and conquer the world, I can still be alive.

But it's too late to regret. I have chosen to fight them. Well, in the end, I made a decision to let Albert take care of it. But after getting more girlfriends, I ended up having to continue helping Albert in destroying the cult. Should I be happy that none of my girlfriends are evil?

If I improve my summoning element, I could enter the Monster's World, right? Maybe once I enter that world, I can stay there forever with everyone and not caring about anything else.

Wait! If this Evil God is really someone from the past, then this guy must have known about how summoner can enter and exit Monster's World as they wished! If he is a summoner, or he has a summoner subordinate, then they can visit Monster's World whenever they want. There's really no safe place, huh? Even if we go to Monster's world, we might still be attacked.

"Victoria, Sonia, is the knowledge about summoners able to enter freely to Monster's World is common knowledge in the past?" I asked the two old ladies.

"Did you just make fun of me in your mind?" Victoria asked.

"No." Yes.

"…whatever. Yes, that knowledge is common. Instead, I was surprised to see that no one know about it anymore." Victoria said, then Sonia continued.

"Which mean even that world is not safe if this Evil God is someone from the past."

Sonia's thought are exactly what I had in mind.

"Then do you know about magic tools that can seal someone?"

"Such powerful magic tool were made in the ancient era. Even more than several thousand years ago. There are people who researched magic tools in order to build something new, or maybe rebuild something that was made in the ancient era. I know this because one of my lover was a researcher. …was it one? Or maybe two?" Sonia's last words are spoken in low volume but I can hear it. Let's ignore it.

"So if we want to defeat this Evil God, we might need to delve deeper into the past to find something that can defeat the possibly most powerful human in the world, if he's still human. This is the guy who probably calling himself a god we're fighting here."

"Being a god is surprisingly easy, you know? Not a real divine being, but just a title. So in a way, he might really be a god." Victoria said.

"Like Mortal God? Tell me how someone can be a god."

"You just have to make people worship you. Those worshipers will think of you as their god. If you're very strong and no one can defeat you, you can just say that you won't kill anyone who worship you as their god. Then they start worshipping you and a cult was made."

Victoria's explanation make sense. Especially if the one who proclaimed as a god knows how much gullible people are.

"But a cult built by fear won't last long, right?" I asked Victoria.

"But it did. Sonia said that she heard rumors about Evil God just soon after she died and became a ghost. This is a cult that was made since around a thousand years ago. And human are creature that forgets. One thousand year is more than enough time to make people forget about their fears. Now, instead of fear, they did it out of their faith to this Evil God."

"So… the only way to destroy this cult is by killing their god. And this god of theirs is someone so powerful that needed to be sealed since he can't be killed… can I cry?"

Chapter 125 - Day Of The Parade

It's the parade day to celebrate the king's first son. He also has a daughter but not many knows about it.

The past few days, we have finished reading all the books about history or fairy tales in the Library Tower. And just like we suspected, the name of the first king of Tatrama kingdom is Rama, although in the history, he was called Rupert Tatrama from his father's name, Rupert.

But that's all we could find in the basement. Other than that fact, we only see documents of the kingdom's secret moves from the past. Like sending a spy to another country, brainwashing powerful mage, and many other evil plan that should never be known to the world.

As for the documents that were written since Albert's rule, there were only few of them. And none of them are as bad as the previous kings' era. Or maybe not yet.

We told Albert about our findings and he only said that he will help search for more clues. Does he no longer surprised to hear that the first king of this kingdom is an Aura user? Maybe it was because we have told him about where his ability come from.

I also told him to look for ancient magic tools or weapons or anything that might be used to kill this Evil God.

He agreed and only said to let go of everything for the next few days and enjoy the parade and Ruby's wedding.

That's why today we just enjoy ourselves as the parade goes on.

Albert, Marie, and Alan rode in an open carriage to show the people his newborn son. Everyone is cheering for the future king. Mustache is behind them as their bodyguard along with several other royal mages.

I think I saw some of them before. They should be the audition winners who got promoted into royal mage.

How did they got promoted only after a few days of the audition? It was because of the arrest of Berthold.

The arrest happened just yesterday morning with Albert himself as the lead. He brought only the people who won the audition with him.

Albert come to arrest Berthold for the crime of slave trading, which is banned in this kingdom. Berthold pretend to not know about it. Albert said that even though Berthold is a scaredy-cat, his acting is really good. Maybe it was because his son's life is on the line.

Although Berthold married his wife because of some political marriage arrangement, he cares deeply toward his son. So he doesn't care of what happen to his wife.

During the arrest, several people refused to come along, of whom Albert presumed to be from the cult. And as they were told to be taken and interrogated, Berthold's wife stupidly decided to blow her own head. Which makes Albert's army wary of these people they are going to arrest.

She could have just tagged along for the interrogation, but she choose to kill herself. Probably because of fear that we will find out about the cult. Albert told me that the other people who were the guests of Berthold's wife, angry at her decision. Since they could have just be prisoned and that's all, but because of the explosion, the cult's member had no other choice but to kill themselves as well when they were going to be caught.

All of the member of the cult burst their own head, including the two bodyguards Berthold brought to the audition. Seeing them killing themselves, the knights who doesn't know about the cult surrender themselves. Afraid that the explosion is because Albert's army's power. Those who surrendered were imprisoned and will be auditioned by Albert himself. Of course those who are innocent will be released in a few days.

As for Berthold's son, it was Ian who saved him. Ian sneaked into the room where he is locked, and kill the captors guarding him.

Berthold's son is just ten years old. He and Berthold were secretly escorted to stay in Tim's secret room in the palace and will be safely guarded.

The two of them will be released and given new identities. Berthold will no longer be a noble. As for how he will end up, it's up to Albert. But I guess Berthold will be our allies against the cult.

The news create chaos among the people for a while, but people no longer care because they only think of the parade and celebration. The civilians doesn't think much of what's happening with nobles. They only care more about themselves.

As for nobles, they were scared to do anything. Whether they are part of the cult or not, all of them choose to stay quiet.

Albert told me all of this this morning just before the parade. And now, we're all watching his carriage moving from the side of the street. I'm carrying Lana and stand in the front so Marie can see us.

"Look. That's your father, mother, and your brother."

I said to Lana in whisper as Marie noticed us and waving Alan's arm toward us.

"Look at you being so close to Lana. I thought you don't want to take part in taking care of her." Angela teased me.

"What?! Who said that?"

"You! Just a few days ago!"

"Really? I don't remember anything that long ago."

"…that remind me of how forgetful you are. If you can remember a lot more, we can take care of the… that thing better." Angela said in low volume so no one can hear us.

Angela spoke the truth. If I have a good memory, I can remember more of the cult's plan and tell Albert about it instead of having him look for it. Sorry, but I'm just an average person. The only thing that makes me different from other people is Aura. And some memories of the future. Most of them are about me though.

"Ah! So cute! What's the name?"

Someone next to us saw me and asked for a name.

"Roy."

"Not you, you idiot! She's talking about Lana! And did you really think you're cute?!"

Good thing that I'm carrying Lana. If not, I'm sure Angela would hit me as usual.

"Ask blind people if I'm cute and they will say the same answer."

"That you're cute?"

"No. They'll say 'I'm blind you stupid idiot!' right to my face. But they can't see my face so they might actually said it to someone else's face."

"That's obvious, you stupid idiot!"

"Now it's you who called me stupid idiot."

"I'm representing all the blind people who don't know toward whom those words should be spoken!"

While we're continued arguing, Kayla interrupt us.

"Your skit makes that lady leave. You two should be careful when and where you two are playing around."

"No. I made that lady leave on purpose. Victoria, follow her and if you find her hiding spot together with other people, contact Albert via Sonia. Don't engage them."

Then while everyone's eyes are locked at Albert, Victoria leave her usual spot in my body, my arm.

"Okay. Does she have it in her mouth?" Victoria asked which I nodded and she left to stalk that lady.

Seems like they are really targeting the prince. Good thing that we choose to keep Lana's existence a secret. Guarding two babies is harder than one after all.

We continued watching Albert until his carriage left the street. And then everyone leave and return to their daily lives. Although some of them are following the carriages. Most of them are kids though.

We returned to the inn and rest for a while.

"Master. Here's your suit. I picked one that suited you most."

"Thanks, Lina. The size?"

"I already know your size."

"How?"

"I'm a maid."

I never have anyone measure my size and never told anyone. But how can Lina know about my size? Is this how a maid should be? Scary…

"We don't need to measure you. We just asked Victoria since you often use her as your clothes." Sophie explained.

Oh, right. If it's Victoria, then she could just transform herself into me or the clothes I wear and have Lina measure her.

And then Victoria returned. She entered the inn with her human form.

"How is it?"

"I told Albert their hiding spot. Then I waited until Miguel busted them. That lady and her friends choose to kill themselves."

So they thought that they had no choice but to suicide. How stupid. I guess they were taught that way.

"But Miguel managed to grab one man and pluck the explosive device along with some of his teeth before he activate it. That guy will be put in prison."

"I see. I guess Albert will be the one to interrogate him. I should also check if there are people he caught yesterday that has explosive devices as well before Albert get close to them. I'll be back soon."

After hearing from Victoria that they managed to capture one person, I left to see the prison where that guy and everyone who were caught from Berthold's estate imprisoned.

I hope I won't see anything that Victoria saw in Mellian's prison.

…yup. No one has explosive anymore. I should return to the inn and dressed up for Ruby's wedding tonight. And I didn't see anything in the corner of that prison. Nothing at all…

Is there any potion that can make me forget a certain memory?

Chapter 126 - Wedding NightPrev Chapter

The parade is over and now we're at Ruby and Ian's wedding. We had a wedding in the palace with only limited number of people. Only trusted people can participate.

The maids and servant who weren't able to gain Albert's trust but still worked there, were told to take a day off again. Just this last few days and they have gotten vacation several times.

The first was during the twin's birth. Then the audition day. And then today. They must be really happy to work here.

Although Albert invited the winners of the audition, only some of them attended. Those who didn't attend were doing a job Albert given like taking care of the aftermath of Berthold's arrest.

Albert said he also want to invite Berthold and his son since they are living in the palace at the moment, but Lowe rejected that idea. Albert hasn't interrogate Berthold yet so none of us know if he can be trusted or not.

"Can't believe that Ian really got himself a wife." Albert approached me and said it.

"Can't believe you can't believe Ian is marrying."

"Can't believe that you can't believe that I can't believe Ian is marrying."

"Can't believe that you can't believe that--"

"Enough, you two! If you keep continuing, neither of you will stop!"

As we can't believe each other, Sonia intervened.

"Can't believe you stop us." I said.

"Can't believe you can't believe that she stop us." Albert followed along.

"Can't believe that--"

As we were about to continue can't believing each other, this time, it was Marie who stop us.

"Are you two having fun? Please don't act stupid in front of the children."

""We're sorry!"" Both Albert and I apologized together.

"Oh no! I just heard from Sonia that the king had been corrupted by Roy. I never thought it would be this bad." Angela said.

"It's good that Roy made another friend." Sophie just glad that Albert and I are getting along.

"Please note that any men who get along with him are not normal. From Hill, Kron, then even the king himself, are not normal." Kayla calmly said.

IN this wedding, everyone from my group already decided to be casual when interacting with Albert. Although at first they were nervous, when they see how close Albert is with me, they just treat him casually. As for the audition winners, they don't dare to talk to Albert casually.

"Albert. This is Kayla, the one who looked smart. Then the one who looked kind is Sophie. And you already know about Candy. Those three are my girlfriends."

"Nice to meet you all. I'm kind of the king of this country and this is my wife, Marie. And that girl over there is my sister, Shirley."

The first people I introduced to Albert are my girlfriends. Then Albert also introduced his family.

Marie is carrying her daughter, Lana, who she might not meet again in a long time, and Shirley is carrying Alan.

"Shirley, they are around your age so you can get along with them well. I'll take care of Alan."

"Okay."

Albert then grabbed Alan from Shirley and let Shirley have a chat with the girls. Seems like Shirley doesn't have many friends around her age.

"I haven't introduced everyone yet. This one whom always look for a fault in me is Angela. That boy over there is Daniel whom I picked up on the street. He's playing with Hannah and her mother, Penny. The one who wears a maid outfit into the wedding is my maid, Lina. And the one who keep drinking is Sam. She's Ruby's daughter." I introduced the rest of my group to Albert. As for Ruby, she's the main star today and I won't need to introduce her again. Victoria and Sonia are both people Albert already know. Well, not really people.

"I see. So Ian is a stepfather now."

"Yeah. That's exactly why she's drinking."

I told Albert about how shocked she was when Ian suddenly proposed to Ruby just after meeting and how Ruby just accepted it. Although Sam is an adult now, she complained when her mother choose to remarry. Seems like Sam is such a mommy girl.

"She's the one who trade with you regarding the treasures you found under the sea, right? I'll try to contact her about business later. When she's sober."

"You're interested in the treasures?" I asked Albert.

"Yes. In fact one of the people from the audition used to be a spy who worked at a merchant company. He's a licensed appraiser. I thought that you might want to have him around."

"Sure. You can talk to Sam about it. But I guess you send him to us is because you want more people to be able to stay in contact with me. Just do whatever you want."

"That's in the list. Don't worry, I won't put too many people around you. Only those I thought may be benefit you."

Well, he's right that having an appraiser is benefiting me. This way, Sam won't have to look for another appraiser and pay them. She can just ask this appraiser who works for her with a set salary. However much she paid him is something she need to discuss. Well, I guess I should stop her from drinking.

I called Lina to make Sam stop drinking. I think if she focus on her work, she will forget about her mother's remarriage soon.

After introducing everyone to Albert, the girls are getting along quickly with Marie and Shirley. Considering they are the same age, it must be wonderful for Marie and Shirley to make new friends.

They soon also grabbed Alan again from Albert and talked about many things and asked about Penny, Ruby, and Sonia's experience of raising a child.

Other than Candy who still seem reserved around the king, the others are already making themselves comfortable. I just hope that Victoria won't spread her hobbies to everyone.

Then the ceremony began, the vow was spoken, and the groom kissed the bride. Everyone is in joyful mood to celebrate the new old couple. Other than Sam who is still sulking.

But once Albert introduce her to an appraiser who will work for her, she returned to normal.

After the ceremony, we just chatted all night. Since it might be a long time until Lana can meet her parent and brother again, no one thought of separating her from her mother even after Lana fell asleep.

"Roy, you'll return tomorrow?" Albert asked me all of a sudden.

"Yeah. I told you that before, right?"

"Well, we discussed few things and--"

"Before you continue, I have to say something. Again?!"

When he said that they discussed something, it ended up with me doing something. Is this something I can refuse? Or is this something related to the girls in my group and unable to refuse? I think it's the latter.

"Yes. Again. This time it's about Shirley. When the news of my heir born was spread, some nobles think that Shirley's position is now to be used as political tool and to be married off to someone."

"Yeah yeah yeah. Now you want me to take care of her as well." Hearing it's about Shirley, I looked at her and see that Shirley is getting along with Kayla and the other. That means even if I refuse, they will accept the request and nothing I can do about it. Is it my fate to be pushed around?

"I will tell everyone that Shirley has no interest in being used as political tool so she leave and choose to live as a Hunter. That's why I want you and your friend to build a clan with her. As for the budget, I think you can take care of that."

"Building a clan?! You're gonna use us to do some request that can't be handled by your men, right? What do I get from doing it?"

There's no way that I will do everything he said for free.

"I'll think for a way to get you Introductory School Degree. You want it so you can enter a medical school, right? I'll also help your friends to get them as well. Maybe I will include Sophie and Victoria."

Sophie and Victoria as well? That's an interesting offer. I don't really care much anymore about getting my doctor license, but I want the girls to find something they want to do other than just fighting. Maybe they also want to be a doctor? Or even entering magic college to learn how to get stronger.

"Then I'll do it. I just need to build a clan, right?" I agree to Albert's idea.

"Yeah. You can discuss with your friends later. But since I want Shirley to leave politic, I suggest that the leader of your clan won't be her."

"That I can do. But if you ever want to submit a request, I won't accept anything cheap. Even if the reward is not money, it must be something expensive or useful."

"I'll leave Shirley and Lana to you. But in case Shirley ever become your girlfriend, you have to call me dearest elder brother."

"You think she will like someone like me? And I will never call you that."

"Three girls already confessed to you. Who knows if Shirley will feel the same as well?"

After chatting with Albert for a while, I asked everyone about building a clan. I know that I have said it before when I asked them to move to Cassau, but that plan seems to be forgotten since many girls of Red Tail choose to leave on their own and we never talked about it again.

When I asked everyone, of course all of them already know Albert's plan to have us build a clan. I'm always the last one to hear the news.

I realized once again that I hate Albert.

Chapter 127 - Going Home Separately

The wedding is over and it's time to return back to the inn. The kids are all tired and sleepy so the girls left early. Ruby and Ian stay for a while longer since they are the protagonists of today's event. They also went to help cleaning up the place.

As for me, the reason I'm still here is because Marie is reluctant to separate with Lana. I'm just here until she can let Lana go since we might not meet for a while again. Shirley returned to her room to prepare to leave tomorrow with me and the others to Cassau.

So it's just Albert and I chatting whatever topic both of us interested in.

"See? The word 'Kidnap' and 'Babysit' are similar. Kidnap can be separated into two words which is 'Kid' and 'Nap'. And babysit also the same. 'Baby' and 'Sit'. Baby and kid are similar in which their meaning is young children of which baby is usually younger. As for nap and sit, both of them are verbs in which both means an action one do to rest. So why is 'Babysit' and 'Kidnap' mean totally different thing? And why can't it be 'Babynap' or 'Kidsit'?" I asked some real question there.

"Now that you mention it, doesn't it mean that you're kidnapping my daughter? As for their meaning… I guess it's the fact that one of them is done forcefully." Albert's reply make me realize it.

"I see. I guess you are indeed smart."

"I'm a king after all."

The topic of our conversation varies too much that now we ended up talking about language.

"You two, how can you talk about so many useless things? Why are you two discussing about the words 'Kidnap' and 'Babysit'?"

Marie interrupted our conversation.

"Marie, are you done saying farewell to Lana?" I asked Marie who's still carrying Lana. As for Alan, he has been listening to our conversation in Albert's arm.

"Not yet."

"Yes. That's why I'm chatting with Albert about many things. I'm bored so I just talked about stupid things with the lonely king over here." I replied.

"And I have a good reason for me to enjoy talking with a friend." Said the king who never had any friends.

…what a sad reply.

"You two keep me here because you don't want to separate with Lana, but what about Shirley? She's also going to leave, you know?"

Does Shirley actually not loved by these two?

"Shirley always wanted to leave. Ever since long time ago, she long to be free and not be used as a political tool. But I always worry about her since she has no experience in the outside world at all. Then as Marie got pregnant, we decided to allow her once my kids are born. And you come in a timely manner. Since you have a lot of girl friends around her age, it will be great if she get along with you all. And I can trust you to take care of her."

Just as Albert finished explaining, Shirley returned.

"I'm fine even if I'm going on my own, you know? It's just that since being with you is more convenient, I'll be joining you."

"Yeah. It's good to have another babynapper." I said.

"You mean kidnapper? Sorry. Babysitter?"

"I thought we had that discussion already!"

"Don't get angry! I forgot since it was a long time ago."

"It's barely five minutes since we talked about it!"

How could this king forget about what we discussed? Now I'm worried if it's a good idea to leave the kingdom in his hand.

"By the way, when will you leave?" Shirley asked me.

"Probably tomorrow afternoon. We need to discuss our plan in the morning after all."

"What plan?"

"I'm planning on leaving on my own to Cassau and train on the way. Kayla and Angela suggested that they do the same. Then we need someone to go along with Daniel and the other to return to Cassau right away. We will discuss who going where tomorrow morning."

"We're not leaving together?"

"No. After finding some clues about who our enemy is, we realized that we are far too weak against them. It's a good idea to train on our way home."

Soon, Marie finally said farewell to Lana who has already fall asleep. I carried Lana with me and Shirley tagged along to the inn where we stay since it's better for her to leave from the inn tomorrow than leaving from the palace and being seen by someone.

We return to the inn and luckily, the innkeeper still allowed us to rent another room for Shirley even though it's late. He's a good guy. Although I never know what his name is.

The next morning, I was awaked by everyone who somehow gathered in my room.

"Why are you all here? This place is too cramped." I said as I rubbed my eyes.

"Change of plan. We need to leave the capital as soon as possible. Albert told me that there are some activities among noble when they noticed that Shirley wasn't in the palace." Sonia reported about what Albert told her.

"Then she can just return to the palace."

"I won't return. I'll be going with you to Cassau and build a clan." Shirley refused my idea.

"Tch, Fine! For now, the non-combatant will go to Cassau right away. Daniel, Hannah, Penny, Sam, and Ruby will leave while Ian will guard them. Oh, right. Sam's new employee will come along as well. Since he was a former agent, he should be able to fight decently. You will go through the main road so I hope there won't be much trouble there."

I don't know how strong Ian is, but he should be strong enough to protect everyone together with Sam's new employee.

"Then Lina. You will also go with them. But leave your summon with me. It will be a good idea to get your summon stronger. Since I will be with Sunny, Sunny can be the one who finished the monsters I defeated and Sunny can get stronger faster."

"Okay. Come out, Sunny!"

Lina summoned Sunny in a vase and put it on the table. We will get along from now on, Sunny.

"Then the rest can go their own way home and practice with our new friend, Shirley. But be careful. Even if you have an advanced level mage with you, there are still danger everywhere." I looked at Shirley. Although Candy is also an advanced level mage, no one knows that Shirley has also reached advanced level.

"How did you know that I have reached advanced level?"

"You're holed up in your house with a lot of resources. And you want to be independent. The easiest way to be independent from your royal family is to be stronger. I just guessed that you have reached advanced level. Which elements of yours is it? I don't think it's the ice element."

"It's the Wind Element. I can fly now." Shirley replied.

"Nice. Just be careful on the way. By the way, Sophie." I called out to Sophie who has been quiet all the time.

"What is it?" Sophie asked.

"You can choose whichever side you want to join. I now that among us, you are the one who hate fighting the most. You don't have to force yourself."

"Thanks, Roy. But I'll join with Kayla. Even if I hate fighting, being stronger is always a good thing. Isn't that what you taught us?"

How do I say it? I forgot that I taught them about it. Let's pretend that I remember.

"As long as you want to, you can choose to do whatever you want. Lastly, Victoria… you can do whatever you want."

"I'll join with the girls for a while then I'll leave on my own. If you need any help, just summon me."

I don't need to worry about Victoria. And if she choose to go on her own, I'm the one who benefit from it since her time to stay will get longer, and my summoning element can soon be improved.

"That's the plan. I'll be leaving after I wake up again from my second sleep. No need to wait for me. You can leave whenever you want."

And so, I wrapped the blanket around me again and tried to go back to sleep. After I wake up, I'll be leaving on a journey with Sunny. I hope Sunny will be a good conversation partner. She can't talk? Then she can just be a good listener.

"Is he always like this?" Shirley who still doesn't know me as well as the others asked.

"Just get used to it. By the way, Roy, can we have Lina go with us? Since Daniel already leaving with a butler, I thought it's a good idea to have a maid with us."

Angela asked for my permission.

"Just go ask her. Don't force her if she doesn't want to go with you. And if she agree, you need to do your best to protect her since her summon is with me."

Then Shirley asked me something.

"Roy. I know you're strong, but are you sure you can go alone?"

"If I go with someone else, I'll just end up leaving the fight to them. That's just how my personality is and I can't myself train that way. Don't worry, I'm not alone. I have Sunny with me. And you can contact me via Sonia. If something happened to any of you, I'll rush to your side as soon as possible."

I hope it won't come to that.

As soon as we made our plan, everyone left my room and I return to my sleep.

Chapter 128 - Like Master Like Summon

I woke up at noon and noticed that everyone has gone. Only me and the potted plant, Sunny in the room.

"It's just us two from now. Let's get along until we reach Cassau."

Sunny shook her… flower head? I'll think of that as her agreement.

I guess even a plant want to be stronger.

I get out of the bed and wore prepare to leave when Sonia appear in front of me.

"What's wrong, Sonia?"

"I noticed that you're awake when your buckle belt moved. Just a message from Albert saying that some nobles are preparing to made a search of the princess. Though Albert told them to stay put, there might still be some idiots who dare to look for Shirley. He said that any important news from him will only be delivered through me, so anyone who claim themselves to be his messengers deserve to be killed. Even if they are nobles, you are free to kill them. In case they are from another country, Albert said that he will think of their act as hostility from their entire kingdom and prepare a war against them." Sonia relayed Albert's message.

Albert sure love his sister, right?

"That I can do. Have you told the girls others?"

"Yes. They said that they will get Shirley has a makeover to make her unnoticeable by the nobles. Since she's rarely leave the palace, it might be doable."

"Okay. Since she's with the others, just tell them if Albert has another message related to her."

"By the way, where are you going?"

"Who's asking?"

"Everyone."

Seems like I made everyone curious at where my destination is.

"Home obviously. To Cassau. But my way might be different than theirs. Just tell them to wait in Cassau if they arrive first."

"Okay. Bye." Sonia just quickly said her farewell and about to disappear.

"Wait! Are you in a hurry?"

"No. The girls are just doing some shopping. We will probably leave tomorrow. I'm just going to enjoy our girls' time." Sonia disappear while having a smile on her face.

The Sexiest Game Of 2023! Not For Kids

So they haven't left yet and went shopping instead. I guess it's fine to enjoy themselves.

Girls sure love shopping. And they can even bonded with each other by shopping together. I just hope that no trouble will come to them since they're a group of beautiful girls. Well, even if any man approach them, they will fall victim to the 'Nutcracker'.

I left the inn after finished my breakfast… or was it lunch? Then I picked Sunny and left the inn.

"Hmm… it will be difficult for me to fight this way. I'll find something to strap you in my back if that's okay with you."

Sunny moved her flower up and down.

Then I bought a bandage to strap Sunny on my back. Sunny's head or flower like head moved above my shoulder to see the front view.

"How is it?"

Seeing her nodding again, I left the capital that way.

Many people looked at me curiously but I just ignore them. It's rare to see someone is piggybacking a potted plant so it's obvious that I gained attention.

I think I saw a glimpse of Shirley happily laughing when she's kicking a man's balls. It's just my imagination, right?

As soon as no one is looking at me outside the gate, I run as fast as possible to… I don't really know where I'm going so I just run straight forward and enter the forest.

"Sunny! How's the ride?!"

This time, Sunny's leaves are dancing. I guess she loved the wind.

Just a few minutes after entering the forest, we encounter our first monster. It's a hobgoblin.

"Alright. Sunny, I'll leave you here. Try to attack that thing with your seed or entrap it with your vine. I'll adapt to your fighting styles."

I put the potted plant on the ground and charge at the hobgoblin alone.

Then I sensed something from behind me so I dodged to the right. I noticed that Sunny throws a seed straight to the hobgoblin. Which means if I didn't notice, that seed will hit me.

"Hey! I told you that you can fight however you want! But that doesn't mean you have to attack me!"

I complained to the plant who seems to be excited in fighting a monster.

The seed that Sunny throws hit the monster but didn't do any damage at all. I guess it's still way too weak to fight alone.

"For now, don't attack it blindly. Your attack doesn't work on it but it can be used as a distraction. Try to attack it when this monster's attention is focused only at me!"

I don't know if Sunny can understand difficult order, so I just fight against the hobgoblin without caring about whether Sunny understand or not.

For this battle, I'll just try fighting it barehanded with the help of my Aura covering my whole body to make up for my defense. By using my Aura, my strength and defense are about the same as the hobgoblin after a few bout. So this is how strong I am without my weapon, huh?

The Sexiest Game Of 2023! Not For Kids

10 Mobile App That Can Make You Money

As for my spear, I smashed it into pieces and put them in my pockets. I'll just use it if I can't defeat my opponent in a bare knuckle fight.

The hobgoblin is armed with a club, but I knocked it away and now we're fighting with punches.

Hobgoblin intellect only allow it to make a simple and predictable attack with its fist, so I'm obviously have the advantage since I trained to kick as well. But for now, I'll just use my fist without kicking, or grappling.

Since the hobgoblin's attacks are predictable, I can easily dodged it. But seems like its defense is quite high even when I'm covering my body with Aura. If I just cover only my fists with my Aura, I can easily defeat it with one punch, but I need to train with my Aura covering my whole body to get used to it.

Both Sonia and Victoria told me that practicing with covering my whole body with Aura will benefit me more than fighting with just covering one part of my body or my weapon. They say that doing it will make my body adapt better to Aura when my Aura is getting stronger later.

As for how to increase the strength of my Aura, I just need to use it more often. And… I need to train getting hit on my body while it's covered with Aura. I don't like that part of training.

Victoria said that since there are many Aura user in the past, so they often had a spar to improve their Aura. Since I'm the only Aura user here, that's impossible. And no one has enough physical strength to for me so I can increase my Aura. So I have to fight monster with good physical ability. Just like this hobgoblin.

With my personality, I would always finish the fight as soon as I can, but since it's a training, I can't do that. I need to lower myself to get hit by this stupid hobgoblin's attack. Aura user sure has a perverted way to practice.

Let's allow this hobgoblin to land a punch on my body first.

The hobgoblin raised its hand high and swung it down to my head. But I tilted my head and let it hit my shoulder instead.

"Argh! It's hurt!"

While I was distracted by the pain, the hobgoblin tried to attack me again. Fortunately, Sunny threw a seed right at the moment when the hobgoblin is about to attack me and distracted it.

I escape from its range of attack and catch my breath. There's no healer with me this time, so I can't afford to get any major injury. I need to move my body so the impact will be lessened. Maybe just dodged it slightly so the attack will just scratch me.

If I do that, it will take a longer time for me to get stronger. I have no choice but to take the damage and hopefully, I won't get injured.

On the next bout, Sunny is already capable to coordinate with me and judge when and where she should shoot. I never thought that plant type monsters are smart. Or maybe it's just Sunny.

Finally after exchanging punches many times, and getting hit over and over, the hobgoblin seems tired and its attack is slowed down and weakened. I guess it's time to end this.

I tripped its leg and mount the monster. Then I pummeled its head with my fists until it got severely weakened, but not died yet.

Then I grabbed the tip of my spear and opened a hole in the monster's chest.

"Sunny. Keep shooting at the hole in its body until it died."

I lifted the hobgoblin, pulled the spearhead, and let Sunny aimed at its chest freely.

The seed doesn't do much damage, but it will surely dies soon.

Then the monster died with its chest filled with seeds. What a cruel way to die.

"Oh? You seem to get bigger again. I guess you're a monster that has quick grow ability. Lina will be pleased with you."

The flower then danced happily hearing my praise. She really is similar to Lina. Like Master like summon.

Chapter 129 - New Dungeon

"Am I the first person to discover this dungeon?"

As I said that, the plant on my back shook its leaves and hit my face with it.

"Sorry. I mean are we the first to discover this dungeon? There's no trace of people entering this place."

Where are we right now?

We're under the largest waterfall in the kingdom.

Why are we here?

Well, since my goal is to get stronger, I thought it would be great to enter a place with a lot of monsters.

People who knows me would be shocked to hear that. They will think that I'm not me anymore since Roy is someone who doesn't want to enter such places.

They're right though.

But since my Divine Vision can cover my surrounding, I know where and when I will encounter monsters. And I only choose to fight monsters that I can confidently… run away from.

Killing them? Of course I would if that's possible. But my goal is to get stronger while I'm still alive. Not dying on the way. So killing monsters is not important. Getting stronger is.

The worst part is that to increase the strength of my Aura, I need to get hit more often. Though after getting this far, I can say that I'm getting better in taking a hit. But I can't say it proudly.

After our first encounter with the hobgoblin, we encounter other monsters as well. Although only few of them are at least as strong as the hobgoblin, or stronger than the hobgoblin. And each time, I deliberately get hit by those monsters. Is there really no other way to get stronger than getting hit?

I feel like if my Aura is getting stronger, but it's just a slight increase.

As for Sunny, she's getting bigger now. But her growth rate is slower than before. I hope by the time we finish our training, Lina can reach Intermediate Level. Sunny did all the killing blow after all.

Sunny's biggest change is that now she can walk on her own. She can move her vines and roots to leave the pot and walked on its own. Although her movement is slow, it's better than being in the vase all the time. Lina will be surprised to see Sunny's growth.

Our journey somehow led us to this waterfall. I saw some mages, probably hunters, fighting monsters in this area. Seems like this spot is a good place to look for monsters.

40歳以下の場合は,このゲームはプレイしないでください.ゲーマー以外も夢中になれるRPGゲーム - 無料でプレイ!Plarium's

But I ignore them all. It was because I saw a dungeon under the waterfall.

It's a difficult place to enter since you need to go through underwater tunnel right under the waterfall, and the length of that tunnel is more than three hundred meter. I think I'm the only one who can go there.

Of course there are also monsters in the water, so even mages will have difficulty to enter even if they see the underwater passage.

But I'm fine. As for Sunny, I think her shaking her leaves means that she's fine as well.

I thought too much water can kill plants, but I guess plant type monsters are different.

I entered the underwater cave and kill the monsters there with my spear. Sunny can't attack underwater yet, but I guess her vines can be used if she's stronger.

As I swum underwater, I see many human corpse. I think they were people who found this tunnel, but died underwater. Maybe there's some powerful monsters inside this cave.

I activated my Divine Vision to see the surrounding and I managed to see a lot of holes on the wall and the ceiling of the cave. Does all dungeon always have holes in it? First it was the dungeon near Cassau, then here.

In any case, it will be easy if I just swim away from those holes. But I can't just take it easy. After all, each of those holes are home to a giant snake or eel like monster. So first thing first, I need to see how fast they are. If they are as fast as the sea monsters I usually fought, then it's okay to continue. If they are faster than that, I'll just give up.

I picked a dead body from the bottom of the cave, and throw it to the wall filled with holes. This one should have died because he's out of breath since his body is fully reserved and no damage on his body. It should be around two or three month since this guy died here.

As soon as the body get close to the holes, the giant eel come out of their holes and bit the dead body. Not just one or two, but all the eels near the body, come out of the holes and rip the dead body to pieces.

Hmm… seems like they are not as fast as the monsters in the sea. Maybe it's because sea monsters and freshwater monsters are fundamentally different. Sea is too fast and the monsters there can freely swim wherever they like, but freshwater, like river or lake, are narrower. So the monsters have difficulty in adjusting their speed.

In any case, it's easy for me to pass this area. I'll just enter the dungeon and ignore those eels.

I can see the end of the tunnel already. And what I see is the entrance to a cave, but this time, it's no longer underwater. There's air in this area, and the monsters here varies.

"How is it Sunny? Can you continue?"

I asked Sunny who had been carried by me on the way here. She replied with a nod. But the pot she's in now is too wet and the ground inside has decreased since I took it diving. I guess I need to fill it after we get out of here.

"Sunny, I think it's better if you leave that vase and just wrap my waist with your vine or root. I'll get you a new vase once we return. When we encounter a monster, I want you to leave my side and we will cooperate like usual, okay?"

Sunny nodded and wrap her roots around me. I should have done this from the beginning.

At the entrance of the real dungeon, I see a fully intact corpse of a male human. I guess he succeeded in entering the underwater tunnel, but can't continue any longer. He should be died because of starvation.

I don't have any sympathy with him because he has an explosive device inside his mouth. Why did I encounter someone from the cult in this dungeon? Could it be that the existence of this dungeon has been found by the cult, but it has never been explored since no one can reach this far?

No matter how powerful you are, you can't enter this place just by defeating the monsters on the way. You need to be able to hold your breath the entire time, or have something that can help you breathe underwater. Like the oxygen tank I built back then, or have someone with air element accompany you.

The Sexiest Game Of 2023! Not For Kids

Whatever the case, even if they know about this dungeon, they haven't found anything. The only trace of people in this dungeon, is only this corpse here. But seeing this corpse still intact here meant that at least this place is safe and no monsters appear here.

"Sunny, for now we will rest here. I'll go back to the water to catch some fishes. You just wait here."

Sunny leave my side and approach the corpse. What is she planning?

"I'll be back soon."

I dive again and look for some prey.

I heard that eel are some kind of delicacy. Should I hunt one of them?

I grabbed my spear and approach one of the hole. The size of the hole is about 30m, but the length is 3 meter. As for the eel, its length is about one and a half meter. This should be able to fill my stomach.

But if I approach it carelessly, the surrounding eels will also come out. I need to be fast.

I've seen their attack before. As long as I haven't entered its range, it won't come out and attack me. Just two meter from the hole.

Then I quickly pierce my spear into the hole and stabbed the eel right on its head. As soon as I know that the spear has pierced the eel, I swum back quickly as to not get the other eel near the hole attacked me.

Before, when I saw them, they won't leave their home. At least the tip of their tails are still inside the hole. But somehow, they are chasing after me now. They are many, and strong. But slow. So I can get to the exit before they reached me.

"Caught an eel! I wonder how it taste since I've never eaten one of these in the past."

I brought the dead eel with me to where Sunny is waiting. But when I see where Sunny is, I dropped the eel in shock.

Sunny's roots are piercing the corpse!

"…Sunny, what are you doing? Are you using his body as fertilizer?"

Sunny nodded at my question.

"Is this your first time using a corpse as a fertilizer?"

Sunny nodded again. Affirming my guess.

"Then next time you need to do it, can you just use the corpse of a monster? Seeing you stabbing human corpse and use it as fertilizer is too scary for me."

Then Sunny raised two leaves on each side. I guess that mean "Can't be helped."

"Shit. Now I lost my appetite. I can no longer finish this whole eel. But half of this might be doable. I'll let you have the other half and try using it as a fertilizer, okay?"

I can't believe that I'm roasting a giant eel while watching a corpse sucked dry by a plant.

But at least the eel is delicious. I need to get more to bring home and let Lina cook them for me.

Chapter 130 - Training With Goblins

After filling my stomach with eel, both of us, a human and a plant, entered the dungeon.

Being in a cave should make the area dark, but it was bright as if it was outside during the day. It was because there are some type of plan that emit light all around the cave. From wall, ceiling, and even the floor, there are several of these plants whose leaves emit light. Even after being stepped, the light won't dim.

"Sunny. Your friends?"

Sunny shook her flower head. Then she magically, made her flower head emit light like the plants around here.

"You can do that too? Doesn't it mean they are your friends or similar species? Both of you can emit light after all."

Sunny shook her flower head again. This time it shook faster than before.

"Sorry sorry. I know you are different. You emit light on your flower, while these plants emit light on their leaves. That mean you're different."

This time, the flower head nodded and dimmed its light. Even plants have feelings.

"Come on, we're moving."

As I told Sunny to go, Sunny wrapped her root around my waist and we're entering the dungeon.

After all the monsters we defeated, and that corpse Sunny used as fertilizer for her nutrient, Sunny has grown considerably… smaller?

"Sunny, did you get smaller?"

As I said that, Sunny suddenly change her size into bigger flower. Her sunflower flower head is now about the same size as my head from the size of my fist. Her root also become bigger and thicker as well. How can I know? It's because her roots already wrapped on my waist tightly.

"Too tight! Too tight!"

Seeing me suffering, Sunny loosened her wrap and let me catch a breath.

"Huff… I see that you can grow bigger and smaller. But please don't get bigger again when you're wrapping your roots or vines around me, okay?"

Sunny dropped her flower head dejectedly. Then raised it a bit. Is that how she apologize?

"Apologize accepted. Now let's see what kind of treasures inside this dungeon."

このゲームはプレイする必要があります! あなたがやりたいことができます!Plarium's

Somehow, my Divine Vision is affected by the mana inside this dungeon. I guess it's because the purity of mana here since no human other than me has ever entered here and affecting the mana. This is the first time my Divine Vision doesn't work well.

I can still see around me, see-through objects, and zoom to distant object, but the effectiveness is different than when I'm outside.

Well, the good thing is at least I know that my Divine Vision has a weakness. It doesn't work well in a place filled with mana of high purity. Now I just need to find something to get rid of this weakness. Maybe using a scope will help me see further. Even better if there's an enemy whose vision is unaffected by mana with high purity. Then I just killed it and gained its vision. I hope I can find one here.

So I made a new plan with Sunny. Instead of having Sunny helped me like before, I intend to defeat the monster here on my own without using magic or Sunny's help. At least one of them. If there are multiple enemies of the same type, I just need to defeat one of them without magic, then after defeating one, I can use magic and Sunny's help to defeat the rest.

When I told Sunny about this plan, she shook her flower head and rejected the idea. I guess she just want to be the one to do the last damage so she can grow. Buy finally after telling her that I will buy a high quality vase for her, she finally agree. Well, it was just for me to fight each type of monsters alone so she doesn't actually protest heavily.

Don't tell me that Sunny did it on purpose so she can get something from me? How smart! As long as it's something I can get, I'm fine with it though.

The first monsters we encounter inside the dungeon is goblins. Weak. Too weak. But the numbers of goblins is about fifty of them. Only ten of them in front of us, while the others are nearby but didn't notice us. They will come as soon as they hear fighting.

I can be sneaky and kill them one by one without alerting other goblins, but it will take a long time and annoying. So once I see them, I just pierce my spear on one of them.

The goblins now become alert of our presences. And since I have defeated one of them, Sunny decided to join.

Sunny left my body and walked on her roots. Then on her stalk, three vines appear and from it, the vines attacked the goblins. Sunny also shooting seeds from her flower head as well.

"What? Do you want to fight on your own?"

Sunny nodded as she heard me.

"Then I'll leave these group to you while I take care of the other groups."

Since I have killed one goblin from the first group, Sunny is now facing nine goblins. Well, as long as the goblins' attack can't reach Sunny's main body, she will win undoubtedly. Although it may take time since her attacks is still weak.

While waiting for Sunny to finish, I can just defeat the rest of the goblins. Let's see if I can defeat all of them unscathed while not using any magic. After defeating the first goblin, I didn't notice any change with my Divine Vision. Maybe it's because goblin doesn't have any vision ability. Or maybe it's because just defeating one of them isn't enough.

I can find the answer after I finished all these goblins.

I let Sunny take care of the first group, and while they are distracted by Sunny's vines, I passed them and get to the next group.

Just like before, this group also has ten goblins.

Since I don't want to use magic, I'll try defeating them all without getting myself out of breath. One goblin need to be killed in one shot. If possible, multiple goblins in one shot.

I threw my spear at the goblins standing in a row, and managed to impale two of them. Eight more to go.

Then I approached the goblins and punched their faces one by one. I also letting them get a few hits on my body. Thanks to this perverted training method, my defense has raised. So it's impossible for the weak goblins armed with clubs to hurt me.

After the last goblins of the group is killed after I broke its neck, I picked my spear and prepare to throw it to the next wave of goblins.

The Sexiest Game Of 2023! Not For Kids

The next goblins come from a narrow tunnel so they are running here in a row. And this throw pierced four of them. Easy.

"Taste my punches! And maybe sometime my kicks! If you're not ugly, you would have a taste of my head-butt!"

They are ugly so I didn't use any head-butts. Why would I get my face so close to those things on purpose?

Soon, all forty goblins are defeated by me alone. And of course I'm out of breath. But since the battle is over, I can get some fresh air with magic instead of breathing in this place covered with goblins; corpse.

Now let's see how Sunny is doing.

She's doing extremely well. In fact she has already defeated 5 out of the nine goblins.

She wrapped her vines around the goblins and shoot one goblin with seeds. All four goblins are wrapped around her three vines with one vine wrapped two goblins.

Then Sunny shot one goblin while also tightening the wrap around the goblins' neck. The seeds are aimed at the goblin's eyeballs.

But the vine wrap is not enough to break their necks. That's why Sunny decided to shoot them one by one.

Just as I approached Sunny, she let go of the goblin that she shot. Now only three more to go with each vines wrapped one of them.

"Sunny, can't you just swing those goblins around with your vines? Just smash their heads to the wall or the floor."

Sunny stopped shooting the next goblin and looked at me for a while. Then he returned shooting again.

"What? You're still not strong enough to lift them up?"

Sunny nodded at my word.

Despite her quick growth during this training, she's still not strong enough to lift a goblin. Maybe after a few more battle, and few more nutritious corpses as her fertilizer, she will be strong enough to lift a monster.

"Do you want me to beat them to near death?"

Sunny nodded at my suggestion. Looks like even she's also bored of how repetitive her actions is.

I just stab my spear to their chest and let Sunny shoot the chest part of the goblins.

All the goblins here are defeated. It was an easy for both of us. But there's something I learned from Sunny's fight.

It's that Sunny's potential to get stronger is much better than any other type of monster. So why is her kind not popular as contracted monster? Maybe it's the fact that she started weak. No one would have thought that her kind are capable of growth. And even those who understand, they would have thought that raising her is a pain.

There's also one other thing I'm curious about.

"Sunny. Before you meet me, you are just a weak monster, right? Then why is Lina refused to kill you and contract another monster?"

Sunny just raised her leaves and tilted her flower head. Looks like she doesn't know the reason as well.

Oh well, I can just ask Lina later. For now, it's time to conquer this dungeon.

Chapter 131 - They're Having Fun Without Me

After fighting goblins, we encounter different types of monsters. Rats, centipedes, snakes, bats, and many other types. Most of the monsters here are not considered as strong and can be defeated by D-rank hunters, but the numbers will make even an A-rank hunter lose.

But they are not a problem for me and Sunny. My defense are strong enough to survive their attacks even if they are attacking me at the same time. And Sunny has grown bigger and stronger. Her vines and roots can trap the enemies. And her seed bullets can kill her enemy faster. But still not enough to kill them in one shot.

But there's one thing I need to make sure of. Has Lina reached Intermediate level yet?

I called Sonia to ask her about it.

I tapped the buckle on my belt and after a few second, Sonia appear in front of me.

"Roy, where is this?" Sonia is curious about the location she's arrived at.

"A new dungeon I discovered. How's everyone?"

"They are fine. The girls are still training while Ian and the others will soon arrive at Cassau. And we all get along with Shirley just fine although she need to learn more about the outside world. And Victoria would sometime leave us at night and hunt monsters on her own. She said she will leave the group once they are close to Cassau."

Then Sonia started telling me about the others' condition. They are all doing fine. And I think the girls are enjoying their time together. I hope they don't forget about me.

"That's impossible. We won't forget about you ever. Especially when the thing we talked about most is about you. We love to make fun of you every day so believe me when I say that no one will forget about you."

"…should I be happy to hear that?"

So they are bonding because of me. Or more like they are making fun of me. What did I do wrong?

"Anyway, why are you calling me?" Sonia asked me why I called her.

"Right. I want you to ask Lina about her progress in summoning element. Tell me if she's close to breakthrough. Then I'll stop having Sunny help me."

"Why do you want Sunny to stop growing?"

"That's wrong. I want Sunny to help growing, but for Lina, it's useless if her summoning level increased. As a summoner, the increase of our summoning element doesn't mean much other than able to make a portal between this world and Monsters' World for a longer time. That's why I want Lina to stop improving her level when she's close to breakthrough, while I will try looking for another Pear-y Fruit for her so she can make a contract with another monster." I explain my intention to Sonia who will tell Lina about it.

"I see. Do you want me to tell Lina to summon Sunny? That way Sunny won't have to join you in your… massacre."

"Sure. Also tell her to summon Sunny via portal. Not the normal summon. That way I can also see everyone over there."

"Alright. I'll tell her that. Bye."

With that, Sonia disappear from here and should be at Lina and the other's location.

As I finished talking with Sonia, I see Sunny is dancing.

"Why are you look so happy? Can't wait to see your master?"

Sunny nodded while keep dancing. It's funny seeing a sunflower dancing.

"I'll wait here with you until Lina summon you."

I sat on the ground with my back against the wall and Sunny leave my body and walked with her roots as her legs.

After waiting for a few minutes, finally a portal appeared in front of Sunny and I. I have told Lina how to make a portal before, but this should be the first time she did it. Because unlike Victoria, Sunny can't speak, so it would be easier for Lina to summon Sunny normally. By forcefully transporting Sunny to her location.

When I asked Victoria about this kind of summoning, she said that she can't do anything. She can't resist, and will be transported to my location. I think this is the reason why most summons got themselves confused when they are summoned by their masters. I've seen some of them in my past life, and most of the summoned monsters can't quickly follow their masters' orders as soon as they are summoned.

As soon as Lina noticed us, all the girls gathered in front of the portal on the other side and curiously looked at me through the portal. Don't they feel cramped at all?

"Sunny. You can go."

I told Sunny to follow her master and Sunny walked on her own surprising everyone.

"Look at that! The baby has grown! Look at how the baby is walking!"

Somehow Victoria acted as if Sunny is a baby who just learn to walk.

"Umm… Victoria? Sunny is a plant. Not a baby. And why are you the one so excited about this?"

"Shut up and let me enjoy the moment! By the way, how are you going to find Pear-y Fruit? The last time you found it was by chance."

"Let's hope that by chance moment will come again."

Then Candy asked me about Pear-y Fruit.

"Roy, what is this Pear-y Fruit and how can that fruit help Lina?" Candy asked.

"Just ask Victoria. This portal won't last long so I can't explain it to you here. By the way Lina, I told Sunny that I will buy her a good vase once I get home, but I think Sunny want you to be the one to choose it. Once you have returned to Cassau, go buy a vase that Sunny likes. I'll pay for it once I get home."

"Alright! We have another shopping time again and this time, it's Roy's treat!"

"Good! There's something I want to buy but I'm out of money at the capital! Thanks Roy!"

"You're such a great boyfriend! Bye, Roy!"

It was Victoria who said it first, then Angela, and finally Kayla. After that I heard the girls shouted in excitement while the portal is closing.

"Wait, no! Just the vase! Don't close the portal yet! Argh!"

Before I finish speaking, the portal has already closed.

While I was desperately pleading, Sonia appear in front of me.

"Sonia! Tell them it's not my treat! Only the vase!"

"I'm here to say that there's some toy I want to buy Daniel. So I can't say that to them. But you can get money quick, right? Just go dive again or you can find some treasures in this new dungeon. Then you can open up a portal to Victoria, and throw all the treasures there for us to give Sam once we arrive at Cassau, and she will handle the rest." Sonia said.

"That's a good idea, but I still hate the fact that you're just using my money!"

Then without waiting for Sonia to leave, I walked back to the entrance of the dungeon.

"Is that this dungeon's end?" Sonia asked me while following me to the entrance.

"No. That's the entrance. But there's some delicious eels I want to take home and let Lina cook for me. I'll transport them to Victoria and have Angela freeze the eels so it will still be good even after a few weeks. I don't know when I return after all."

"Oh! That's great! It's a shame that I can't eat after I become a ghost. Even Victoria who became a slime can eat although she doesn't need food. I'll tell them the news."

And finally, Sonia left and I'm all by myself.

Instead of continuing the exploration inside the dungeon, I ended up walking back to the entrance again. Those eels are delicious after all. Even though I only roasted it without any seasoning, it's still taste good.

I also don't know if I can get eels after I reach the end of the dungeon, so I went back first before continuing. And with my portal to Victoria, as long as Victoria is with the others, I can transport many things to her.

I dive back to the water at the entrance and caught ten eels with the same tactic. If Victoria is with me, I can get many more, but let's be satisfied with this much.

I just hope that all these eels won't be gone by the time I returned.

It took me about one hour since I last talked with Sonia to get these ten giant eels. After each eel I got, the next eel is harder to get than the previous one. That's why I only got ten of them even though I want more.

I opened up the portal again to see the girls are… barbecuing?

"You're barbecuing without me?!"

"Hmm? Hey, Roy! Where's the eels? We've been waiting for them for a while!" Victoria asked me for the eels.

"You're barbecuing without me?!"

"Of course we are. It's eels we're talking about. The giant eels that live in a hole, right? It was a delicacy even in the past. Now, where are they?"

"Where's my share?"

"Lina is roasting some beefs for you. Of course you don't get any eels. Just cook it yourself."

Victoria hand me the meal that Lina prepared for me while they are partying?

"Here's your frigging eels!"

I threw the eels one by one into the portal and I quickly close the portal before I watched them having fun any longer.

I entered the dungeon again while eating the meal Lina cooked.

"This is delicious! But I hate how they're having fun without me. But this is delicious!"

Chapter 132 - No Biting!

After finishing the meal Lina cooked for me, I continued exploring the dungeon. I'm all alone now, but I still hope to be able to conquer this dungeon. Though if things get tough, I will escape as fast as I can.

My Divine Vision is still doesn't work well in this dungeon. Maybe those goblins doesn't have any vision ability. What a shame. At least I can still see the surrounding although the range is shorter than when I was outside. Still it's good enough for me to protect myself from being surrounded.

Although I should be vigilant to the monsters here, my mind is still thinking of how the girls are having fun making a barbeque party. I wish they don't finish all the eels I brought.

Maybe I will make fun of them if they get fat…

No. That's a terrible idea. Just that one time I told them that I won't get fat is enough for them to be extremely hostile to me. What if I told them they gotten fat? I'd be dead if I do that.

So far, the enemy I've encountered after going alone are too weak for me. It's even difficult for me to allow them to hit me on purpose. So when I encounter weak enemies, I just stopped doing anything and let them attack me once or twice, then I will kill them.

It was so easy and makes my training boring. But if I take it easy, I will end up getting killed if I let down my guard against strong monsters.

I think it's better for me to speed run this dungeon and leave this place. Being here alone is boring. Should I just call Victoria?

I guess not. Although Victoria seems to be having fun, she's still diligently hunting monsters. I hope so…

Maybe I'll try to befriend a monster here. It's a common sense that only those with taming element can communicate with monsters. But for other elements, they are unable to communicate with monsters. Even for us summoners, we can only communicate slightly with our contracted monsters, but not to any wild monsters. But if the monsters I tried to talk to is at least as smart as Sunny, then we might be able to communicate.

If there's a wild monster I can talk to, I hope it's a cat type. I love cat! I want to have a pet cat since a long time ago. I like a small cat. They are cute. But a big cat is fine as well. Since there are more place to rub them. But it's impossible to let them inside the city.

As I was thinking of having a pet, I saw a giant lizard ahead. Can that thing communicate? Let's try it.

I approached the lizard calmly and when the lizard finally noticed me, I reach out my hand to it.

"Hello, lizard. Don't bite me, I come in peace. Pleased to meet you. Wanna be my friend?"

As I reach out my hand to the lizard, it tried to bite me even though I said no biting.

"I SAID NO BITING!"

With my hand still in the mouth of the lizard, I reached out my other hand and grabbed its mouth. Then with my full strength, I pulled the upper jaw and the lower jaw apart. It bleed profusely and die soon after.

"Lizard is no good! I'd better find another monster."

I left the place and continued deeper into the dungeon. There I found another lizard. But this one is covered with fire.

The Sexiest Game Of 2023! Not For Kids

"Fire lizard?"

I approached this lizard and tried to get along with it.

"Hello. I come in peace—I SAID I COME IN PEACE SO NO BITING!"

This one is a fail as well. I ripped its jaw like the one before, but this time, I felt stinging pain on my hand.

"Ouch! Hmm… so Aura doesn't protect you from fire. Truly, Aura is only useful in physical fight."

I learned something new again today. It should have been something I learned at first, but because the way I fight is by using hit and run tactic, and I keep dodging the enemy's magic, I never realize it until today.

Or is it because my Aura is still too weak? I'll try asking Sonia.

Soon, Sonia appear in front of me.

"What's up calling me again so soon?"

"What? The party still not over?"

"It's already midnight so other than the one keeping watch, everyone else is asleep."

"So it's already late? I don't realize at all."

When I was sending the eels to Victoria, it was still bright. But now, everyone has fallen asleep? Did I have too much fun on my own without me realizing it?

"Anyway, why are you calling me this late? I want to go back to sleep." Sonia said.

"Does a ghost even need a sleep? I want to ask you about Aura. Does Aura protect you from magic?"

"Are you stupid? If Aura can protect you from magic attack, Neither Victoria nor I will get killed."

Oh, right. I forgot.

"Oh! But there's a legend told by our master. About the peak strength of Aura."

"What is it?"

A legend about Aura? It might just be a story to make children interested in learning Aura. But it's still worth listening considering the Evil God is also written in children's stories.

"Well, there's a legend of a Very strong Aura user. He is weak in magic, but extremely talented in Aura. Because of that, he became obsessed with become the strongest. Even stronger than Master level mages. Some say that his Aura sword can cut through magic."

"Aura sword, huh?"

"Yeah. It's just Aura concentrated on your hand, materialized and shaped into a sword."

The Sexiest Game Of 2023! Not For Kids

"I know that. But it means if I can reach that height, I don't need to look for ancient magic tool to kill this Evil God."

"…you think you can reach that height?"

"No. I think that's too far for me. Creating Aura sword might be doable for me in the future, but to improve even further seems unlikely. Well, I'll just keep training then. Who knows if I can be that strong?"

I want to have the strength of Aura that can slash magic, but that seems impossible. If Sonia's master, a real Aura user can't reach it, what about me whose teachers are a ghost and a slime?

"Alright, thanks for telling me this."

"Yeah. Are we done?"

"Well, since you don't need to sleep, how about you accompany me exploring this dungeon?"

"…enjoy your loneliness." Sonia said as she started to disappear.

"Wait! No!"

How cruel! After being a ghost for a thousand years, she should have known the feeling of loneliness. How come she become so cruel to me? Did I do something wrong to her? Other than the fact that I threatened to exorcise her? Oh, wait. That's the reason why.

And so I continued exploring the dungeon alone.

I tried to greet all the monsters I encounter, but all of them want me dead so I just killed them all. Making me realize how rare monster with intellect is.

But I found three of them. And they are all with me. First is Victoria and Blobby. Well, Blobby doesn't actually has any intellect. She's just following my order and transform into anything I want. But Victoria's consciousness is with Blobby so that makes one.

Next is Sunny. A plant type monsters who's contracted to Lina the maid. Although she started weak, and was only useful to wrap her vines to someone, she's getting stronger now.

Lastly is Sonia. But that's if I count ghost as monster. She's Victoria's fellow disciple. Someone who's able to use Aura in the past before she died.

I think it would be great if the next monster I contracted with is an intellectual ones. I'll try contracting it the way summoners of the past did. By entering the portal to Monster's World and find a powerful monster to be contracted.

But I need to be stronger so I can freely explore the Monster's World. That's why I need training.

"Oh, well. Let's finish this dungeon fast and leave this place as soon as possible."

This time, I ran fast through the dungeon without caring about the monsters here. But if I find any strong monster, I'll stop and try fighting them.

I keep running all the way until my vision see a treasure chest at the end of the way. It's located in a big room probably at the end of the dungeon.

But there's a monsters guarding that treasure chest. It's a huge lizard, even bigger than any lizard here.

Is that thing a dragon? I don't see any wings so it might just be a gigantic lizard. And there's an even bigger flame surrounding its body than the previous fire lizard I encounter. I can feel the heat even though I haven't entered that room.

Let's try approaching that lizard.

"Greetings, huge lizard! I come in peace—oh my god! You breathe fire!"

This time, no biting accident happened. But fire breathing accident did happen. This only mean one thing. Kill or run away!

Chapter 133 - Escape From The Dungeon

Damn it! I was just greeting it but that thing tried to burn me alive instead! Does that thing has no manner at all? Or its intellect is the same as common monsters? One thing for sure, There's no other choice but to kill that huge lizard or run away.

It might be a good idea to distract that lizard for a while, find a chance to steal the treasure, and runaway. But I still haven't seen what's inside that treasure chest yet. I need to see if the inside of that chest is worth the risk or not.

But I need to dodge this fire breath first.

In a closed space, using a fire breath makes it difficult for me to dodge it. But I managed to do it by jumping to the ceiling and stuck my body there. The next time it shoot a fire breathe again, I might not be able to dodge it so I have to keep moving.

I ran around the huge lizard while trying to see the inside of the treasure chest. What's inside the chest is just one thing. A stick about 30cm in length, and the color is brown. I think it's a magic wand. And the color brown should represent earth element magic. So this is probably a wand for earth element mage.

While I was thinking about the wand inside the chest, the huge lizard attacked me again. This time, it used its tail covered with fire and swung it at me. Good thing I noticed it quickly. That's how I managed to duck in time and the tail passed above my head.

"That was close!"

It's impossible to win this fight without using magic. Especially when that lizard burnt the oxygen around me in this room. That's why I no longer thought of this as training and started using magic to let myself get some air.

But I need to see first if I can defeat this thing or not. I tried using Air Cannon to shot some rocks at it, but it doesn't take any damage. I think it's useless to use it.

Then I keep moving until I find a perfect chance to pierce it with my spear. I found the opportunity to attack its head, and without hesitation I covered only my hands and my spear with Aura to make the most powerful piercing attack I can.

If it takes some damage, then I can defeat it. But if there's no damage, I'll grab the item inside the treasure chest and run away from this dungeon as fast as possible.

I thrust my spear between its two eyes and… it barely took damage. Only 2cm of the spearhead pierced it. Even the scale on its forehead is this strong, and this thing has its body covered with such scales and they are keep burning.

Yup, that's it. Time to go.

The lizard got angry because I attacked, and it started to breathe fire everywhere. I need to hurry to the treasure chest and run away with the treasure!

I managed to pass the lizard and run quickly to the treasure chest. There's no time to open it normally so I just kicked it hard enough to open the chest, then grabbed the wand and run back toward the entrance.

I ignore all the monsters I encounter on the way back because the huge lizard is chasing after me. If that thing do a big fire breath in here, I'd be dead for sure since there's only a straight way to the exit from here. That's why I keep running and ignoring the monsters I see, and even monsters that tried to block the way.

As I managed to get some distance from the lizard, it tried to use its breath to kill me. But there's still some more distance until I can enter the lake. I've got to run faster!

The Sexiest Game Of 2023! Not For Kids

I keep running with my full speed, but its fire breath is faster than me. I hope I can still make it in time!

I can see the water already, but the fire is right behind me. I can feel the heat on my back. It's impossible to escape unscathed.

In desperation, I made an air barrier behind me filled with Carbon Dioxide. The fire stopped for a while, but in less than a second, the fire managed to engulf it in the fire. I never thought that the lizard's lung is so powerful. But at least I managed to gain some time to dive into the water.

I dive into the water as I felt my shoes is burning. Just a second late and my legs will be burned.

I swum away before that lizard decided to boil the water as well. Of course I grabbed two eels on the way out.

I barely escaped death, but I can only feel relieved once I get pass the waterfall. I swim to the shore carrying my spear that impaled two eels and finally able to rest.

"Huff… huff… I think that's enough for dungeon exploration. I will never enter a dungeon alone ever again!"

If I have someone else with me, not Sunny, but someone whom at least reached intermediate level like Angela, Candy, or Shirley, I might be able to find a way to kill that huge lizard. Going alone is a suicide.

I know that I always said that fighting in a closed space is better for me, but I like to fight outside more. After all, in a closed space, there are only few escape route. While in the outside, as long as I get far enough, I already escaped from the enemy.

I laid my back on the ground and see the sun is rising.

"I'll take a rest here for a moment. Then I'll cook these eels and go back into training. And next time I encounter goblins or other weak monsters, I won't complain. They are much better than monster that can kill me."

After resting for about one hour, I made a fire and roast the eels. I eat half of the eel, then the rest I saved for later.

"I think it's time to go to a city before continuing my training. It's hard staying in the wild barefooted."

My shoes are burned because of the huge lizard and can't be worn anymore. I can just cover my feet with Aura, but that won't help me from the weather.

...….

Meanwhile, the girls have just woken up after barbeque party last night.

"Let's have some more before we leave!"

Angela requested Lina to cook another eel before they continue their journey.

"I think that's enough. Any more than that and Master will say that we gained weight." Lina shook her head as she refused Angela's idea.

"Ugh… I guess you're right. Who would have thought that these scary looking eels are so delicious? And we even finished half of them yesterday."

There are eight of them travelling together. Angela, Kayla, Sophie, Lina, Victoria, Sonia, Candy, and Shirley. Not counting the flower monster. Victoria and Sonia doesn't need to eat, but Victoria still choose to eat because her sense of taste still works. There's no way Victoria would leave a delicious dish alone.

But still, for seven girls to eat five giant eels on their own is still too much. Even Roy only eat half of the eel. Well, it was because he saw something disgusting. Normally, one big eel is just enough for him to fill his stomach. Three of them if he wants to eat until he's full. But his companions turn out to be big eater as well. Five eels in one night for seven people can make them fat.

"It's fine, right? We can burn the fat by walking. By the way, where are we going today?"

Before anyone can answer Shirley's question, a group of bandits approaching them.

"Woohoo! There's a lot of girls here!"

There are about fifteen men approaching the girls. But the girls were not scared at all.

"Well, we could also burning fat by beating them up." Kayla said.

"Wait, I'll try to attack them first. I want to see how much people I can defeat in one shot."

Angela moved forward and reached out her hand.

"What is it, girl? Do you want to surrender yourse-"

Before the guy finished his words, he and five other men were frozen by Angela's ice magic.

"Six of them? I feel like I'm more powerful now, but I expected more than six." Said Angela.

"That's still a good number though. And our training really bear fruits. I also feel stronger even though I just practicing magic control." Candy who is the strongest among them say so.

"The-they are too strong! Let's retreat!"

"No you don't!"

Victoria appear from behind them and killed three of them. Leaving only six of them behind.

"Now there are six of you left. Now it's fair, right? Six on six? Lina also can see how strong Sunny is now and everyone has a chance to burn their fat." Victoria said.

"Sigh… I guess we always encounter men like this." Shirley sighed.

"Well, it's obvious when we're all beautiful girls gathering together. Everyone will think that we are easy prey. Just get used to it." Kayla said.

Then the girls pick their opponents and fought them one on one. Telling the men that those who can defeat their opponent can leave alive.

In the end, the girls defeated the men one-sidedly. The girls are growing stronger. Even the two who are still in beginner level, Kayla and Sophie, are about to breakthrough to intermediate level soon.

Once they all returned to Cassau, the only beginner level mage in the group are Lina who stayed behind on purpose, and Roy himself.
