『Far West has connected with the Rocky Flame World.』
『Far West has directed her attention towards you.』
『The injured Far West is using her preserved powers to talk to you.』
Ten minutes later, the system's notifications rang in Roy's mind, causing him to come to an immediate halt. He stopped all too suddenly. This led to Julian hitting his back with his back. Crying out in pain, he stepped back. He could be seen holding his nose. Maybe it was out of shape. Not that it mattered to Roy. He grabbed him, bringing him behind the tree to hide from unseen danger.
Julian blinked his teary eyes at him. Because of the state he was in, he looked pitiful. "What's wrong?"
AD
"Just wait here for a second." Roy signaled him to quiet down.
His face showed curiosity. What did Far West want to tell him? Who had injured it? Is it Chaos or an unforeseen enemy?
Just a couple of seconds later, a pleasant, motherly voice was heard by him.
"You've done well so far. Don't get startled. I am Far West..
"As a noble, I believe you already know that the continent has a soul, a consciousness of its own. This secret should have been told to you. It's your right to know about it. It's a complex concept to accept. But here you're, hearing me out.
"I am harmed. It's hard for me to talk to you for long. So I will cut straight to the chase.
"The small world you're in is called Rocky Flame World. It hides a shard of the Chaos-Causing Float. No one except for a certain knew the hiding spot of that thing. But somehow, the followers learned of it too. They planned extensively to obtain it. They used the cursed magic circle to cut off my connection with the world so that I won't be able to interfere with their plans. This act harmed me. I fell into a slumber for two weeks. It hasn't been long since I awakened.
AD
"I sent many to stop them. But regretfully, they had all felled. I am saddened to see that. But they must be stopped at any cause. If the Chaos-Causing Flute is recreated, millions will die.
"From their eyes, I gouged the true strength of the enemy. They are led By GhostWalker, a pious believer of Chaos. He was a strong one. But he separated his power from his flesh in order to enter this small world. He is probably at the same level as you. But he would become strong after the demonic ritual. You must stop him. It's better if you kill him. Of course, you won't be doing all that for free. You'll be rewarded handsomely. You can expect an Ex-rank soul shard if you succeeded in thwarting their plans."
This was all said in a weak voice that became as light as a feather at the end. Although It has awakened, it wasn't healed from its injuries. It looks like it was harmed greatly.
Roy's eyes have thinned to the size of needles. He knew what would happen in the future. So he knew that the reason Baldwin County was so easily destroyed was because of the Chaos-Causing Flute. It could brainwash hundreds of thousands of beasts. Using this, the servants of Chaos have controlled an uncountable number of beasts and used them to stomp the County to death.
Yet, a shard of it was still to fall in their hard.
The information was too much to digest.
"Where's the way out?"
Julian heard him uttering that and felt bewildered. 'Who is he talking to?'
"I will tell you when it's time for you to return." The voice of the Far West died out immediately after uttering these words.
Julian: "Who were you talking to?"
[0)??? Roy: "The Far West."
They continued their journey, moving towards the grand construct in the distance.

…
Standing three feet away from the gateway to the Rocky Flame World, Amelia could be seen biting her thumb in anxiousness. "Will master be alright?"
Vizards wasn't as troubled as her.
He replied, "If the only danger inside is monsters of level 1 to level 10, then he should be."
Suddenly, a feminine but strong voice was heard from behind them.
"Where is Lord Roy?"
They turned around, only to see a gorgeous woman.
Who could it be if not Swift Death?!
"You are?" Arlo questioned, eyeing her distrustfully. Beautiful people were the most dangerous. They use their beauty to make others lower their guard before striking them dead. Did this beauty have similar intentions against his nephew?
Before Swift Death could speak, Amelia said, "Lord Arlo, this is my master's new maid."
Swift Death signaled her to relax. "I will do the introduction myself." She turned to the elders. "I'm Delilah, working for you know who."
Vizard scrutinized her. A look of suspicion appeared on his face. "You seem too capable to be his maid."
"He won my loyalty. That's why I serve him. And he has allowed it. If you have any doubts regarding this matter, please take it up with him. But I believe he won't be pleased. And honestly, doubting me is like having no trust in him." Delilah said honestly.
"He's in a small world. This thing took him there." Arlo revealed Roy's whereabouts to her.
"And… there's no guards out there with him?"
"Yes, the county doesn't have capable trainees or Fake Mage. And this thing can only send them into the small world. You won't be granted entry either. Your level is too high."
AD
"It can always be decreased."
At her words, Arlo revealed a shocked look. "But how?"
"I have a runic item that can lower my level to a trainee." Delilah pinched the ring on her finger using her finger. Immediately, it released a shine that enveloped her white radiance. She now looked like an angel, but if her profession was taken into account, she was nothing less than an angel of death. Her power level decreased to a level 10 trainee. She had "taken" this ring from Master Gray after knocking him out. "I believe I should be able to enter it now."
"It's worth a try." Arlo signaled her to touch the gateway.
The second she placed her hand on it, she was teleported to the small world!
