The next day, Arthur woke up from deep slumber. The nauseous experience he went through yesterday was mentally draining, making him fall asleep as soon as he relaxed. That happened after the screams of the summoned monster ceased at midnight. As his memories drifted there, he was again weirded out by the whole event. Since the first moment he saw this group of people, he felt a sense of familiarity. It prompted him to follow after them, and he ended up here. After that, he again met one of them in the…-

Yurirl looked at the tower's final boss, the Death Knight, wearing an armor that gleamed dangerously under the blue sky since the final battle was on top of the tower. The Death Knight unsheathed his black sword, stepping toward the intruder. "Come." Yurirl's ability activated, and his mana surged. He was sick and tired of this trial, taking so much time while only being the first. His mana stuck to his sword as he felt the tension rise in the air. It was time to end this. The Death Knight…

Trust the silver. That's was what Miko told him, but Arthur couldn't understand what she meant. Was it because of his name? Does that mean that she trusts him? Arthur didn't know and quite frankly, didn't care. The next few days were ones where Arthur lived with the blonde short girl. She would rest most of the time and stretch her body at others. Arthur didn't mind her and kept going on with his plans. He had a goal to hunt every primitive creature he found, including the Beras that had once threatened…

Sensing his presence, the monster screeched again while dashing toward Arthur. With his increased perception and agility, Arthur found it a lot slower than before. He avoided the monster with ease as he made his mana cover his sword. A rock came flying like last time and Arthur slashed it easily because he was prepared. The monster jumped on him again with its scythes threateningly slashing at Arthur. He wanted to test his mana technique against this monster, so Arthur made a swing of his own. The…

"Huh?" Arthur stood there, dazed as he watched this scene. The mana disappeared, and the quietness of the night resumed. It was only then that Arthur realized the person who fell was drowning. "Why is everyone drowning in this place?" Arthur mused to himself before jumping in the lake. He was not a good swimmer, but he knew the basics. Luckily, he was able to pull the person to the shore in time. It was a girl with blonde hair and doll-like features. However, a scar ruined those features. It was…

After he settled down, he took out what Hazel gave him. It was a rectangular piece of stiff paper that looked like a playing card. As he looked at it, he found it to have some mana paths on it. He realized this was what Ori talked about in the club room. This was a Runes Card. He remembered that Ori said this was a one-time use, so Arthur didn't try to activate it. However, he had a different idea in mind as he looked at it. Sitting down, Arthur placed the card in front of him and began to study it.…

The root was of green color, and the pressure its mana emitted was terrifying. Hazel then realized how sorely mistaken her team was. This was in no way a low-mid-tier monster. She braced herself for the attack as she sent her mana to the rune card her mother gave her. Before she could activate it, however, the scenery changed in front of her eyes. "Kira, stall for time!" A familiar voice rang in her ears; she looked up at the person embracing her in a daze. However, she couldn't see anything behind…

Their group had ten people in total. Besides Hazel and Rachel, who were a summoner and a mage respectively, the rest of the team was a classical formation. There was a long-range attacker, two tankers to defend the mages and healers, two healers, two swordsmen, and another mage. This medium-size team was overkill, but Erin wanted them to gain the plant at all costs. The mana core was secondary as they couldn't consume it, but the plant was priceless. However, the team was a mess. These people had…

It seems his Legacy knew how to keep him focused on the fight, and that's why he didn't see these messages earlier. His thoughts were in disarray, but he managed to use the last bit of his mana to activate the new rune he gained. Warm orange light enveloped his body as he felt the pain slightly subsiding. As his mind became clear, he was now sure of it. The Legacy rewarded him for his achievements more than his levels. It gave him this rune now because he killed a person for the first time. As his…

As the wall fell to bits, Arthur saw a shadow appear in front of him. It was the swordsman that had come to the rescue of the two. With his great sword flying in Arthur's direction, he dodged the attack by jumping backward. As the range of the great sword was a lot longer than a normal one, Arthur had to block the blade's tip with his own. The protection rune broke down, and Arthur felt the residual force travel through his hand. It wasn't something he couldn't handle. "Who are you?" The swordsman,…
