Chapter 17 - Chapter 16 - Regressor Chapter 2: The old man

Lyloth are having a bad mood lately.

Just as he being busy with controlling his clone at the 'inner area' building his 'foundation' there, the guy/person who pretended to become system are acting again.

Lyloth thought that the person are only capable doing it once by using special item he/she got, but never he thought that the person acting up again when he was away.

Lyloth being pissed so much are because recently, it is becoming so hard for him wanting to buy item called 'Nothing', this item seems useless to other, but as someone who came back from future, he knows exactly what this item are.

Lyloth are figure it out quickly as for why there not many 'nothing' available anymore, it is has to do with second opening of this so called Mysterious Trader Shop.

He thought that there no way for people figured it out the usage of 'nothing' within short period of time, even though they might be figuring thing out. Lyloth wasn't worry at all, this is still early and no one has enough capital yet to buy 'nothing' at the large amount.

Beside, if someone trying to bought item useless as 'nothing' other will definitely suspicious, even if they doesn't know what usage of the item, they will raise the prices.

That also the reason as why Lyloth didn't started to stockpile the 'Nothing'.

Also, it is not like Lyloth doesn't have enough capital like the others. Lyloth are coming from future afterall knowledge about unclaimed treasure is inside his head, but wealth aren't his top priority, there is many way for him to get rich quickly.

"I wonder if this person are also came back from future, just like me"

Even though that was impossible thing, Lyloth aren't going to get rid of those possibility.

He might didn't remember thing clearly at this stage of life, but he was pretty sure that there no such thing as Mysterious Trader whatsoever.

Lyloth might being locked and tortured by his family everyday at this stage of life, and only escaped from torture because of monster horde that sweeping out the area at the end of August.

Only then Lyloth are finally had a 'life', even though he also fighting for his own survival everyday, in the end he was the winner.

And after getting inside human civilization again, he learned that his former 'family' are survived from the monster horde.

Lyloth then have a goals to take revenge towards his 'family'.

From there, the mess started to appear one and another. It is snowballed more and more.

Anyway that was just Lyloth background stories from his 'past' lives or 'future'?

Looking at the dates Lyloth muttered.

"hmm... I still have month left until the auction began, should I go get some 'excise' fist?"

"I also need to gather some pocket money to participate"

After saying those, Lyloth get up from his meditating position. And within a blink, Lyloth disappeared from his location before.

.

.

There nothing that can threaten Lyloth at this current stage of life, that of course under premises those powerful as an exception.

Above the monster and traveler though, Lyloth can be said as unparalleled. Again, he was person who came back from the future afterall, even though it seems like that Lyloth main body are idling all day everyday when he was controlling his clones.

The truth is the main body didn't idle at all, his main body are doing meditation, gathering Mana to getting progressed on magic.

Blinking from one location to another, Lyloth suddenly stopped.

"where I should go?"

There too much choice for the places Lyloth can go, and they are scattered all over the world.

After pondering for a while, Lyloth looking at the current location.

"there are few 'nearby' ruins"

Looking at his current location, Lyloth are instantly finds about 3 'nearby'. This so called 'nearby' was in fact, tens of thousands miles away, that was half of distance if you someone travelled from one point back to the same exact point around the earth.

Well, one cannot imagine at how big this world are. It is definitely multiple times size of earth.

Back to the reality, after deciding where to go. Lyloth instinctively perform a hand motions, it is feels like that Lyloth using a sword to tear down the spaces.

"ah I forgot... I haven't get my sword back"

"Lets cancel the exploration plan for now, let me grab my sword first"

With a thought, Lyloth started to blinking again. He actually went to the opposite direction of the ruins he wanted to go.

Arrived at the border or certain kingdom, Lyloth once again stopped blinking and just stayed there hovering in the air.

"Now..now...now, How should I take my stuff back?"

"This is little problematic' because there is that old man, Only if the old man died will I can get my stuff back."

"Hmm.. I guess, it not necessarily needed for the old man to die. I can't even beat him, I will getting beaten instead"

"It would be good if the old man can 'rest' for few days "

"But the question is, how?"

Lyloth pondering about the ideas, when there suddenly a notification keep popping out. Lyloth are believed that he already turned off the annoying notification stuff.

So why it suddenly acting out now?

After opening the notification he suddenly just remembered about the system 'updates'.

There are uproar happening at the chat channels.

Lyloth closed both, but just as he wanted to get rid of chat channels. He suddenly got an idea!

"why haven't I thought about that?"

"It seems like I still amateurs at scheming, I didn't even thinking about simple things such as that."

Using random nickname that he comes with, Lyloth posted his 'notice' at the 'boards'.

This 'boards' new system that being implemented, as hot it works, it is similar to the forums. Someone can made a post and someone can also commented in it, but it always open to the public.

There no such thing like private post who only specific people can comment and access, there no private way of communicating with the other traveller. The system didn't allow such thing happened.

But people will found the way around apparently, they will started to make a code, and the codes are only known by them. That was still way in the future though.

Now, the most of post are about advertising, either advertise their own self (looking for girlfriend) or advertising product, community, guild, and so on...

Dozen or so minutes after posted the notices, Lyloth finally received some response. He opened his eye, while he was waiting, Lyloth doesn't idle at all, he casually find a place and start meditating again.

He was sword freak in the 'past' or 'future' life. But now, Lyloth became meditation freak instead.

Back to the topics.

.

Lily: I worked there, why?

.

Looking at the comments, Lyloth are responded by saying

'Oh really? That great, are you free now? I have an business and I like to talk about it face to faces'

Lily: Yes I'm free, this is my day off. I'm currently at.....

Seeing the girl exposed her current location just like that makes his mouth twitched, 'this girl is too pure, she doesn't know how the cruel the world can be'.

"Well I guess it is understandable, no one dare to offend that old man afterall, even ordinary people who works under him left untouched"

Lyloth are instantly delete the notices that instant after the girl exposed her address.

Lyloth finally started to move again, while in the road he once again pondered at how to make the old man sleep?

The problems aren't with the 'sleeping pills', there might not many thing that have a effect on the people at old man levels, but Lyloth already find the solution.

The problematic thing is about how to make the old man taking his 'sleeping pills' willingly and without even noticed about the 'sleeping pills'.

Lyloth can try ask for 'help' from the traveller who worked there, that was the plan.

But if the person in question doesn't want to 'help' him, Lyloth cannot even forcing the person. The only way to force the person are by using magic.

But using magic in front of that old man definitely out of the question.

Only dumb people will use magic against someone who had the word 'magic' on his names, there also the fact that the old man already lived for long and yet to die, he was still alive and kicking.

"i guess I still can try, there no way around afterall "

"if this fail, I have to look for other method. As for waiting for the old man to die, it is still too long"

"i probably can tried to approach those Royals if this fails, maybe they will 'willingly' gave the Solomon Swords "

After meeting with the Lily, it turned out pretty well. Lyloth are pretended to be drug dealers, and he said to Lily. "I heard from rumours that the old master having struggle with his sleep lately, I have really strong 'sleeping pills' here, I wonder you wanted to buy it miss?"

Lyloth even performed a test on a street cats, he put the 'sleeping pills' powder into a cat food. After a few minutes the cat instantly went into sleeping.

Of course the 'sleeping pills' Lyloth gave to the cat are the different than the one he will have to the Lily.

Really, Liliy are too pure, he believes nonsense of the stranger he just meet at the street.

But looking at her appearances it is kinda makes a sense, Lily was just like 15 or 16 years old, on earth maybe she lives really lovely life with its protection from her parents.

Lyloth know that people around this age are naive, but they ware not to this extent.

Bringing Liliy into his schemes. Lyloth fully known that Lily memory will be read by the old man after the old man wakes up.

Lyloth aren't worried at all if the system and it secret will be revealed to the 'natives', the system are have it own security measurement.

Only the other traveller are able to see the system inside a traveller memories, for natives they will see nothing. Just a empty space in the thin air.

Few days later there insider information that Royal treasury being breached, at the time old man sleeping in his own residence.

The old man instantly went into the palaces after hearing the accident, he was the one who responsible to make magic array and security measurement in the palace afterall.

But after looking at the report only single item was lost, the old man somehow breathed sigh of relief. The item that lost are just worthless a pieces of sword that already being inside treasury for who knows how long.

But the old man still had his own concern, there actually someone who can cracked up his magic array that he came up after tens of years, now he needed to change the arrays. The frustrating thing above them all is, there no damage in the array whatsoever, he doesn't know how the person cracked his array without leaving single trails.

After the thing are being solved at the palace, he went back to his residence. The old man already identified the main problems, he was sleeping three days straight.

So he wanted to interrogate those who working under him. And apparently, his student already doing the job, there already main suspect. It was Lily, but there a problem when old man student trying to read Lily memory, her memory are too strange, it seems like powerful existence are locked Lily memory.

But the old man student didn't act on his own, after knowing that the 'sleeping pills' are harmless and only make the old man sleep for few days.

Just like the drug dealers in Lily memories says, the old man are having insomnia for who know how long, and recently it is getting worsen, as a one of his student, he naturally wanted to help the old man have a proper rest. But there aren't many things that can affect the old man anymore, and apparently a drug dealers are actually smarter than him.

After his master was back, he was explaining anything what he found to the old man.

The old man only says "bring me to her"

The old man tried to read Lily memories, but it is still the same. He was helpless just like his student.

So the old man make a difference approach instead, his student know that the old going to do something so he didn't stay any longer.

The old man began questioning Lily.

But unknowingly to Lyloth, the Liliy are to pure and honest person, even if the native cannot read her memory, that doesn't mean the system can prevent the information leaking.

And the native learned about the other words existence are being brought forward by Lyloth action.

After knowing that the girl In front of him are just pure, honest and naive person. The memory that being buried deep inside old man memories are awaken.

The girl named Lily makes the old man remembered again about his daughter, His daughter are also cute, naive, and pure little girl...but unfortunately, the old man daughter are departing way sooner than him, following her mother departures....

Sigh...

Sighing....the old man didn't want for this young flower falling just like his daughter, he wanted to protect this young flower. This young flower needed to know about the world, how cruel it can be, the old man wanted to get rid of regret for not teaching his daughter about the world. The old man thought that with him alive, he can protect his daughter, but who knows that the old man overestimating himself at that time.

Back to the reality.

"Girl, would you like to become my student?"

Lily are tilting her head after hearing the sudden question.

It is understandable for ordinary people who works under him doesn't have any ideas of identity the old man had, that because the old man just living ordinary life like some pension nobles.

The only smiles and started explaining.
