Chapter 36 - Figure on the Hill

"Are you still pure?" That single word from the woman surprised Aldric greatly.

She was probably too eager to speak because she was worried so she described her condition in such detail, going so far as to say she was pure.

After all, Aldric only wanted to make sure she didn't suffer at the hands of the old man's grandson, not ask if she was pure or not.

As a grown woman, that was a private part of her life. The most important thing was that it was not lost because it was forcibly taken away by someone.

"Ehmm, ehmm!" Jenny cleared her throat repeatedly, apparently realizing that she had just spoken out of control.

"I'm still pure, why are you reacting like that? Is it weird that I'm still pure?" She questioned his reaction after clearing her throat, still in a high tone.

Perhaps she was annoyed by such a reaction.

"This is indeed surprising. After all, you are a city girl, not a country girl," Aldric replied, not trying to make excuses, he honestly said he was surprised.

"What the hell? Can't city girls be chaste? It's not like I'm easily tempted."

"But you have the nature of a seducer, even daring to tease me."

"In the city, there is nothing wrong if a woman flirts with a man first. It has nothing to do with whether one is easily seduced or not."

"..."

"Alright, let's not keep discussing this, get out of there immediately." The woman began to change the subject.

It was just that, Aldric felt it was a pity if he had to leave.

"I feel like I might not get caught," he said in a rather low voice.

"Don't be silly, Aldric, it's too risky," Jenny replied, sounding uncomfortable as she seemed to be pushing herself.

"Is there a Senior Magician involved? If there isn't, I'm sure I'll be fine," Aldric replied.

He wanted to be sure of this.

Just because Ramsey Dortmund had a lot of money, it didn't mean he could get help from a Senior Magician.

He would probably find it difficult to ask NPCs for help and finding a single player who had become a Senior Magician was also difficult in the vast Eldorn Region.

Even finding a 10th Stage Junior Magician was not as easy as one might think.

Aldric could encounter two at once, that was because they wanted to rob him.

"There is no Senior Magician, but the old man is assisted by at least six 10th Stage Junior Magicians. They're people he pays through the real world directly," Jenny replied.

"Even if you can defeat them, the possibility of your cover being blown is still high. Once your face is captured in their screenshots, your history is over."

"If it's as you say, then I'll still act," Aldric replied, not thinking much more.

Jenny was too worried about him, but she didn't know how strong he was. Only he himself knew that.

"You!" The woman didn't seem to believe what she was hearing.

Just as she was about to say something else, Aldric disconnected.

He didn't feel they needed to keep talking if she just kept warning him to stop.

After that, he took out the World Cube.

This artifact was very important to the plan this time. He wanted to prepare it first.

He took out Monster Core after Monster Core which instantly disappeared into the cube.

It worked based on the energy inside. As its owner, all Aldric needed to do was energize it by feeding it Monster Cores.

Based on his current assessment, the Dead Fish and the Demon Horse had previously energized this cube with ten Level 10 Monster Cores.

Even with all that, its energy pool was only like a grain of sand on the beach.

Of course, even though it was a little, it could not be considered useless as it could still last up to five minutes with a strength that could withstand anyone below a Senior Magician.

In order to have maximum results, Aldric intentionally included more than 40 Level 10 Monster Cores and many Monster Cores below that level.

With all that, even a Senior Magician would not be able to destroy the cube generated by the World Cube easily.

It could also last for a longer period of time.

This he prepared because he was worried that Ramsey had something to make a terrifying attack.

When such worries arose, he put more Level 10 Monster Cores into the World Cube, eventually reaching up to over 60.

Although it was a bit excessive, he didn't feel any loss since he got them from the two robbers, and maybe he could get a lot of Monster Cores later if he defeated Ramsey and the prince.

"Now let's wait and see," he said.

Until now, he had received many messages from Jenny.

Because there were too many, he was too lazy to read them, reading only the latest messages.

As it turned out, she had given up on persuading him, and sent messages praying for him to win without getting hurt.

Aldric did not reply to her message as it would only make her keep sending messages.

"Mmm..." His eyes gazed towards the Spring Hill not far from the forest.

Suddenly he saw the figure of a young man in a black robe that had the style of a coat standing there, very obvious because his figure was right under the moonlight.

He had rather long gray hair that fluttered in the wind, making him look even more dazzling with his handsome face.

As he stood on the hill, he looked like someone who was watching over his territory, looking relaxed with each of his hands in the pockets of his robe.

On closer inspection, there was a sword hanging from his waist in an inverted position.

Aldric could see the young man's eyes clearly despite their distance.

His eyes were like a pair of blood moons, bright red in color, looking like they were emitting light.

From the top of the hill, his gaze was actually fixed on the small forest.
