They walked for 12 hours before seeing the first sign of life. Well, not life as there were no humans in the empire anymore, but buildings. It was a small village with plantations that had already rotten with disease. No one was there to take care of it. All the houses were woody, and it looked exactly like an ordinary human village. A slightly bigger house, presumably for the person in charge, and another one with the same size as the village’s merchant. At first glance, everything looked normal…

The person behind the hood was Jassin, the one who secretly fell ill on the first days of the journey. It turned out he purposely poisoned himself to create doubt inside Arthur’s heart, and inside the heart of everyone else present. “Why did you do this? Answer me!” Arthur said. He was yelling during the night, which made all the others wake up from their tents and come out to see exactly what was happening. “Akhur, what happened?” Siora said. Arthur already knew Siora and Jassin had that…

Two male vampires had perished, and only one male and one woman remained. The two of them sensed their situation wasn’t any good, and they would most likely end like these two. Therefore, they opted to surrender. “Please, don’t kill u-” the male vampire muttered, but Arthur ignored him, and cut his body in half. The others from his squad that were hidden behind the tree came out, seeing that the fight was already over, and they did nothing to help. Arthur’s strength was more than enough to…

The Fairy Mountains took a beating and turned into a desolated area. Well, that was only the case inside the fairy illusion, as the real Fairy Mountains were still the same. No one would believe if they saw that attack in person. How was a person capable of releasing such force? The entire area did not have trees anymore, and an enormous hole made everything look hopeless. Arthur flew above the desolated area, looking for the fairy who cast the illusion. There were no trees or bushes for it to hide,…

After 8 hours of good rest, all of them entered the Fairy Mountains. It was not only one mountain but 6 of them with a path in the middle, like a canyon. Arthur’s group slowly made their way through the Fairy Mountains, looking at all sides, trying to find danger before it could find them. A sense of dread, as if someone was lurking in the shadows, behind every bush, every tree, waiting for the right moment to pounce and strike. Perhaps there were monsters hiding inside the Fairy Mountains, or maybe…

“It has to be one of these plants we ate in the soup.” Jassin said. He was the elf that got ill during the night when they were camping inside the forest. They did not face any poisonous enemy, so the reason for him getting ill like that was from a poisonous plant they used as a spice, or one person there had poisoned him. Arthur believed more in the second option, therefor he kept close watch of all the squad members. An elf, a race that lived off the land, and presumably knew all the herbs around…

The giant had already given Arthur his blood essence, so he was bound to serve him, therefore he knelled without asking further questions, especially now that he was free. He owed Arthur his life. “Let’s move. We need to get out of where. Also, I have two companions on the second floor.” Arthur said. Now that the dungeon had been cleared out, it was a simple task to traverse through it, and within minutes, they returned to the village where the banshee attacked them. Myria and Lilia were there,…

“What is it?” Arthur said. “If I’m not mistaken, at the end of this dungeon, there is a living dragon!” “What? How?” “The gods put her inside this place not that long ago, but from what I heard, she isn’t a full dragon but a half-one. Her father is a dragon called Nefion.” Wrutzus said. Arthur did not mutter a word. Nefion was someone he wanted to find, eventually, and now more people related to him were around. Was Nefion and his brother the two remaining dragons? Not counting…

A tier 6 was something only a few individuals could cast, especially with such ease as Arthur. Myria was breathing heavily after seeing that, but imagine if she knew about the tier 7 spell Arthur cast during that battle. Anyway, with that the fire golem problem was solved, but who knows what types of dangers still lurked in the shadows of that dungeon floor? Arthur went to where Myria and Lilia where. “Stay here while I check the rest of the floor. If anything bad happens, return using the mirror.”…

“What should we do?” Myria said as she glanced at all the powerful monsters in the area. It would be impossible for them to fight them. Arthur was the only one with enough strength, however. Could he clean the floor while the two of them waited there? They were in a safe area, away from the volcano dangers, as well as the fire golems 6 meters tall, and thick like a rock. “Maybe I will try to clear the floor first, and then after that you can return to the village from the 2nd floor and wait…
