Chereads / Legendary Blacksmith: Start With A System!! / Chapter 13 - Racing Against Time

Chapter 13 - Racing Against Time

"What's wrong? You have an headache?" Akemi who was the first to reach there asked as she lifted him off the ground..

Dusting the sands which filled his pocket off his body…

"Why do you suddenly care about me? It's not like we're dating.. Are we?"

"Just get on the carriage and shut up!!"

"Wait a bit, I'll have to adjust my clothes" he said as he began running towards the opposite direction of where they were going…

"You guys can go on without me, I'll follow shortly!!"

About a few km from where they were..

Then he opened his system…, it'd been okay for him to open it while he was still with the crew, but it'll seem strange if he was just touching the Air, because only him can see the system..

[System online]

[Tree point acquired:....]

"Skip all that, scan my body for any lost or forgotten memories…"

[Scanning in progress]

[Results found: 1]

"Open it"

[You do not have the card necessary to open it]

[Do you want to Purchase card?]

"Yes, purchase card!!"

[Insufficient Cp for the card you want to Purchase, you still need 450 Cp to purchase card!!]

"Damn, show me the Card description!!"

{Memory Key Card}

{Rank: Bronze rank}

{Level: 0/10, 300 Cp to fully upgrade}

{Description: The card can be used to unlock memories that were lost, locked or forgotten…

"How do I get Cp? Do I have to buy it with money or what?"

Cp can be earned by completing task, earning trophy and upgrading skill or card!!

"Alright then, is it possible that I can change my daily quest?"

Yes, there are variety of options for you to choose from…

NOTE: YOU CAN ONLY CHANGE ONCE A MONTH

"Alright, change it for me"

Quest Beginning in 5,

"Wait what, ain't I supposed to be given an headstart?"

4, 3

"Oh c'mon"

2,1….

He was transported to a place, everything was just blue.. like an holographic design…

Where am I?

What's this place?

Mission: Survive for 10 minutes without using any weapon!!

"Survive from what?

The ground below him started rumbling little by little, then the noise became steady, it was like the creature was drawing closer.

BAM!!

The creature burst out of the ground, it was a scorpion….

Now, just like blacksmith's had the power to produce unfathomable weapons..

Those weapons are produced for a reason..

To kill these magical creatures, no one knows how them came into existence, but up till this very moment.. Gillian thought it was just a children's tale…

These Beasts are graded into 4 ranks,

A,C,E,S

THE A RANKED BEAST WAS THE LOWEST OF ALL, WITH LOW MAGIC IN IT'S BODY..

C RANK, BEING THE SECOND ARE MOSTLY EITHER WOLF'S OR TIGERS!!

E RANK, BEING THE THE THIRD IS A STRONGER STAGE THAN THE REST OF THEM, IT'S RUMORED THAT ONLY DRAGONS THAT ARE ABLE TO REACH THE E RANK STAGE…

But you know, rumors are always fake…

THEN THE LAST STAGE, THE S RANK..

TRUTH BE SAID, NO ONE HAS SEEN ANY S RANK BEAST FOR A WHILE NOW..

"How the hell do you guys expect me to survive this? Do I look like a monster?...

His voiced echoed around, he had no time for jokes anymore, he had to survive..

[Time Left: 9 minutes 50 seconds]

He started sprinting, he started slow at first, but he was going to need more than his leg to survive…

There's no way a human would be able to outrun a Scorpion….

He's not the flash

"Open system catalog" he said panting heavily…

[Item's you can purchase]

1. Mythic Boot

Description: Enhances one speed for a short amount of time..

Note: Purchase can only be made when in immediate danger.

2. Mythic…

"Purchase boot immediately!!" Damn, his legs were already starting to slow down, whereas the scorpion hadn't Start to chase after him yet..

[Purchased: -10cp]

[Balance: 40cp]

Suddenly, he began feeling sensations in his legs, he was going farther into the air…

Something flashed right towards his back, the beast had begin it's chase, if was unfathomably fast, faster than any normal scorpion!

"Activate Mythic Boot's Immediately"

His eyes bearing a striking resemblance to that of a cheater

The boots holographically appeared on his leg, making a stilled motion..

He sped off… taking him about 200km from where the beast was…

WTF? What kinda boot is this? He muttered..

With his red eyes blazing in usion..

[Time Left: 59 Second's]

Then the boot began flickering, the boot was supposed to be adjusted before usage… meaning that he could set how fast he wanted to go…

But he didn't, thus exhausting all the Boot's magic…

"They didn't mention it was 1 use only!! Stupid system!!"

His eyes caught the beast running towards him from afar, it was enraged.. it's sharp tail looked like it was ready to kill..

[Time Left: 6…..,5..4…3..2…1

Quest Completed Successfully]

+200 Cp

Then the holgraphic place closed down, he has been transported to his normal state..

Where the sun is one…

Did he even take notice of anything at all?

"You done doing your thing? The others can't wait much longer…

Steve muttered, pointing over the the crew a mile away, his eyes showing a bit of deceit…

"Yeah, let's go"

Gillian replied.. with his hands on his waist cracking immersely..

Trying his best to sound like a woman….

"You a lady? What thing did you have to do? Joan asked as Steve and Gillan approached…

"That doesn't concern you, let's go" Akemi interfered, bringing the conversation to an end…

Everyone grab a horse, we need to make it there before noon!!

So they left, riding into the desert with one destination in mind.. one destination with different goals, they all had different agenda based on what Gillian just saw, his doubts had been confirmed…

Monster's are real, and it's only a matter of time before a war like the cold war happens again..

Afterall, a wise man once said: Time Is Of Essence.
