After seeing the video, most of them sighed in relief before leaning into the chair calmly.
And before they knew it, they had an expression that seems to agree with the proposal unconsciously.
Sandra on the other hand did not deny the fact either. "It wasn't a performance worth noting. Although some kids had shown an interesting performance, it can be considered a natural action that could be taken while trying to survive. However, I did not see anything till the very end that could potentially outclass others. In other words, what they all did was just a little experience of camping outside the house for a week. And considering that it all happened 2 years ago, most of them had highly likely forgotten the crucial task. That is if they had only done it one time"
Sandra pointed out the truth right in front of Arcadia's head without holding any pressure at all. However, based on what she said, everything cannot be denied.
Without batting an eye, Wades nodded in agreement. "Yes. You're correct. The event was only held one at a time. Considering that the event will change drastically, I don't think they're different from your sons."
Wades showed a firm composure that implies his honesty in front of them and did not even deny anything once his successors were mentioned.
At the mention of no different from her sons, Sandra grinned frigidly. "Additionally, I heard the most outstanding kid that even you had personally thought to be the most genius among them had received weapon master as his class. If that's the case, I guess your words can be dependable.
Both Nel and Wades twitched.
The words she said clearly inflamed them that those who are nearby almost couldn't believe what she said.
And unconsciously, people were whispering to each other to confirm whether it was real or not.
On the king's side, Lance could only sigh at the situation. 'This is why I hate meeting with these people' he thought.
On the other hand, Wades could only hide his anger. Not because of her but the reason why she knew. Everything discussed inside the mansion is supposed to be a hidden secret no matter how trivial it was. Having this intel spread to the outside world means a betrayal to the family.
Next to his side was Nel, he had to do something before the situation escalates further. He knew how crucial this information was in the world of royals and nobles and seeing that this information was leaked outside without their permission implies that someone had deliberately spread them from the inside.
Nel couldn't hide his anger. However...
'For now, I had to stop this.' Before making eye contact with the king.
Lance nodded with understanding upon receiving the message through eye contact. "How about we discuss the rules of this event? Since everyone seems to have started to agree with the event?"
"Oh my, saving time now aren't we? But I guess we should hear everything" Sandra said indifferently.
With that, they began discussing the rules of the event.
And after discussing the event, everyone left the castle quickly.
────────────────────────
After waking up, Flux found himself crouching on top of the bed looking at the auction. Desperately hoping the bid to increase further.
『Dark staff』
『Current bid: 190k gold』
"At this rate, I might retrieve the item." He muttered in discontent.
Flux had the feeling this item may benefit him further if he decided to cancel the auction if the bidding remains the same since everyone is free to cancel the bidding as long as they own the items. Therefore, Flux had to cautiously make up his mind.
Frankly, the amount of money he could receive now is already decent, no, it's too much. The level of this item is too low to go further than this. It could be said that the only thing that makes this item valuable is its rarity of this item and its perks.
No, maybe the level is the reason behind this. Many people had just received the system recently and for that reason, their parents must be eager to get a decent item for their son to help them level up effortlessly. Even if they can't use it now, soon, they would eventually be able to use it.
As such, the item may get a higher value than this if it was placed in the auction at the right time.
Flux was perplexed for a little bit as his composed self came back. "I should wait a little bit longer. According to the rules, I have the right to choose which person has the right to receive my item whether the bid is lower compared to the others. Of course, I would decide to pick the person with the highest bid among them."
With things now going smoothly, Flux proceeds with his plan.
Immediately after checking the auction, Flux in meditation form, a white almost bluish mana has begun to cover his entire body as he absorbs the scattered mana all over the village.
Most people would not notice the change in the village. However, those who had a strong sense of mana are exempted.
Yet, Flux did not show signs of fear of people noticing the slight change in the surrounding. Rather, he just didn't care about anyone noticing his presence.
『You've recovered 15% of your mana』
Each time Flux absorbs a decent amount of mana from the surroundings, the system would instantly notice the change and quickly notify the holder.
Fast and surely gradually, his mana is recovering at a rapid state. To the point that his large mana capacity is being filled by a storm of different mana. Yet, these different kinds of mana are instantly obeying and formed into one once absorbed by Flux.
This abnormal mana absorption was the same technique Flux had used to accumulate a large sum of mana in the past years.
Due to this, the completion of the project spirit eye is in a complete state. And now, his mana is raising at a rapid state with no signs of stopping.
Shortly after 6 minutes, his mana completely recovered smoothly. However, Flux has not yet finished his original task.
Promptly, the sky blue mana around his body turned into green as his meditation has not yet ended.
"Technique Deployment, Self Recovery."
With those words, the injuries all over his body have begun to gradually dwindle and recover simultaneously.
With that, his body is now fully rejuvenated. He can freely move at ease without feeling any disturbing pain from his muscles, skin, and bones.
"Now's time to hunt. I can't let each second pass away without doing anything. After all, I also found out the experience of killing monsters here Is too small to level up easily. No, it's rather the experience required to level up. It's like the game but in hard mode. In that case, if I slack off here the dream of reaching level 1000 may just become a dream forever." Said Flux after getting up from the bed before changing his clothes and wearing his armor again.
Flux then hurriedly went outside the village to a nearby monster's field.
Upon arriving, Flux was immediately welcomed by dozens of level 15 elite boarwolf.
While unsheathing the katana, Flux spoke coldly. "I don't have time to waste time with these monsters."
『Technique Deployment, Scattered Moon』
Flux coated his sword and created mayhems of 10-meter-wide slashes directly at his opponents.
Instantly, all enemies were cut down along with trees in the vicinity.
『You killed 26 elite boarwolfs』
『You received 8,866 experience』
『You received 1430 golds』
『You level up 1+』
『Name: Flux Arcadia』
『Health: 3400/3500』
『Level: 15』
『Experience: 7746/8171』
『Class: Weapon Master/1 star』
『Mana: 2700/2700』
『Title: Error』
『Gold: 17,700』
『Store』 『Trade/Auction』
『Weapon Storage』 『Item Storage』
The whole area splashed in blood, chopped up monsters' bodies, as well as large sword marks engraved on the ground, show the horror within this dense mist.
Only the sound of the system notifying the holder resounded through the lonely forest.
"I think I just got an idea of how to level up faster than this." Said Flux with a thoughtful look.
Flux wasn't sure either but if just fighting monsters at this level, it should be enough to eliminate them.
『Technique Deployment, Elemental Clone』
While standing there, 10 clones who appeared to have the exact same characteristics as him materialized from 10 different types of natures.
Whether it be Fire, Water, Stone, Wind, Wood, Sound, Darkness, Lightning, Mist, and Light, each clone was carrying each natural element of nature.
『-1000 mana』
At this moment, the mana usage is highly likely to be an unsurprising matter anymore as each clone had various types of techniques planted within them.
"Go!" With the sound of go, all clones disappeared instantly from their position as though they'd already had known their task without telling them.
"If something happened to them, I will personally go there." Said Flux. then, he added while holding his stomach. "Since my job was stolen, might as well eat. I'm hungry."
