Chapter 16 - The Origin of the realm

[ idovine City Arc ]

Amadeus collected all the documents in the quarry to find more information about this place, including transportation routes and dates, money transactions, and more. he started reading them in the pig room that became his room and What he found was interesting.

first, all the mana crystals were transported to one location at the beginning of every month and that location is a city called idovine.

second, the quarry was originally a city called Traipolis but after they found that the ground was full of mana crystals they killed all the residents and destroyed the whole city.

third, the bodies of the slaves who died were not buried or burned but they were transported to idovine City.

Fourth, the rat guild supplied the Quarry with slaves, and because the quarry couldn't pay for the last slaves they supplied, which was the one that Amadeus came with, so the rat guild decided to stop working with them.

finally, in all these documents a name was frequently written and it seems like this person is the owner of this place, the name is Viscount Nerian.

" so this place was a city, humans can do anything for extra coins," said Amadeus "To think that the once lovely city of Traipolis will meet such a fate," said the Crown with a sad voice " Why did you know this city," said Amadeus.

" of course, i know all the places in this realm since it was the realm of my previous owner," said the Crown "What? You mean this realm belonged to Omega," said Amadeus surprised.

the Crown then explained that this realm was owned by Omega the god of the End and it was one of the strongest realms, in the era of Omega there was no hunger or slavery all creatures lived a happy life.

but after Omega was betrayed everything changed, the realm was taken from him and the other gods' punishment fell on the realm destroying everything beautiful in it, from then the green lands turned to deserts, and trees rooted and died, monsters lost their minds attacking anything they see.

the realm was turned into a nightmare and the only way to survive was to kill and use others, after a few thousand years order came back after a new god was appointed the owner of this land but in this new order there was no place for the weak only the strong can prevail.

and the people that live in this realm hated and blamed Omega for everything that happened so in revenge they destroyed all the temples that belonged to Omega and all his followers regereat the day they followed him finally his name became forbidden to say and with that Omega become the first God to fall.

" Such fate to live in a dying world with no hope, so it's expected that they will hate him," said Amadeus "All creatures once you fail to meet their expectations will abandon you since they dont see a meaning to in following you anymore, i hope this story is a good example for you Amadeus " said the Crown

"It's a good example but what i am thinking about now is more important, Do you have a map for this place," said Amadeus "Of course, but it is useless since it's from the time that Omega was here," said the Crown " show to me it has to be useful " said Amadeus.

A window appeared that had a map on it that said his current location is the city of Traipolis and the place he first appeared is one of the temples of Omega that were destroyed but he didn't find a city called idovine and the area he was in was a green land used for farming.

" i can't find this city called idovine does this mean it is a new city," said Amadeus, " i told you it would not be of any help to you, "said the Crown "Anyway i should get ready for the people that would come to take the crystals, " said Amadeus.

for the next few days, the followers were able to take the guard place turning the quarry into a fortress under the instructions of Bertram who used to be a soldier but was sold by his master and Amadeus spent the days training with the sword.

/The user sword experience raised and reached rank 1 

/The user deals 10% more damage when using a sword

/sword technique unlocked 

{ splitting strike - tier 1 = the user does a vertical strike dealing great damage and has a chance to split the target into 2 pieces in the process.

note = the user has to be on the ground and he can't move to do the technique.

" so every time my experience rank rises i unlock a technique, but i thought it would be faster than this with the Genius learner skill," said Amadeus "If it wasn't for that skill you would have been swinging that sword for the next month so dont be greedy," said the Crown.

"aren't you going to explain this " said Amadeus.

the Crown explained that weapon experience has 10 ranks in each weapon type and your damage will increase in that type and you will get a technique every time it rises so in total you will get 10 techniques in each type.

 each technique has 10 tiers that rise the more you use the technique which unlocks a stronger version of the technique.

" but aren't they useless, i can do a horizontal strike without the skill," said Amadeus "Your version won't be as strong and precise as the technique version, you can try and see the difference," said the Crown.

Amadeus found a big rock outside the quarry to use as a test subject, first, he tried striking vertically without activating the technique, the damage was good even shattering the rock, and then he tried the technique on another rock.

Amadeus used { splitting strike }, and cut the rock perfectly into two pieces " Now I understand why the technique is better since you need more power to split a rock without shattering it " said Amadeus.

suddenly a pack of 20 giant wolves came out of nowhere and surrounded Amadeus who was not surprised cause he felt them sneaking around him "Now that the pig is gone, no one dealt with the monster around the area, i guess it's my job now " said Amadeus and equipped Commander Geoffrey's sword.

 one of the wolves attacked Amadeus but was killed with one hit falling on the ground " Avice said that the food supplies were low but i think that 20 giant wolves will be enough for now " said Amadeus as he started fighting with the wolves killing them leaving only one.

the last Wolf was stronger than the others even pushing Amadeus back "Your not bad, but this is the end for you " said Amadeus, and the Wolf started rushing at him trying to bite his head off.

Amadeus looked at the wolf and used { splitting strike }, as the wolf nearly hit Amadeus he was cut into 2 pieces " i think i should search the area for more monsters" said Amadeus.

Amadeus returned on the morning of the next day and gave the bodies of the wolves and other stuff he hunted for the past day and collected in his inventory.

Everyone was surprised and happy by what Amadeus did and their devotion level rose to 60% then Amadeus spent the next few days on the highest point in the quarry training " i guess it won't be that easy to reach rank 2 " said Amadeus.

" of course the higher the rank the harder to reach," said the Crown "Master there here, the people that came to take the mana crystals," said Bertram " i know, was able to see them since yesterday, but i think that enough distance," said Amadeus.

" We barely saw them with a binocular but he was able to see them from a further distance, amazing," said Bertram to himself " Bertram i will go deal with our guests," said Amadeus then he equipped Commander Geoffrey's sword.

" my master should we come with you, i have people that can fight," said Bertram "No need i am more than enough, and your role is to deal with any person that escapes, we dont want to leave any of them alive," said Amadeus.

" as you wish master i will follow your orders but i hope you stay safe there," said Bertram "No problem i will go now," said Amadeus as he jumped from the high walls of the quarry and started running toward the guests.

" i have to finish quickly and get back to my training," said Amadeus to himself.
