Divine Knight Sylvester Glaivewood had been through some bad days already, but he was sure that today was one of his worst ones yet. "Can you say it again? But this time a little more slowly?" The Divine Knight said as he tried to massage his temples. "I want to make sure that what you said was just like what I heard." "Ok, Sir Glaivewood." The one who was talking to Sylvester was a black-haired woman, who was wearing thin-rimmed eyeglasses that made her look like an extremely efficient person.…-

Alex had already detected Teresa’s presence earlier as he talked with the giant boar. He was able to do it as his FED Manipulation allows him to detect emotions of sentient beings nearby. But he did not call her out at that time, as he was busy talking with the giant boar. It was only after he killed the giant boar that he decided to confront Teresa. He caught Teresa’s left ankle deftly with one of his tentacles, hoisting her upside-down in the air so that he can see her face.…

While riding her horse, Teresa took a deep breath as she conditioned her mind and body. Being a Golden Knight does not only require a powerful body, but also a flexible mind capable of making sound decisions, especially during battles. Not only a Golden Knight’s life was at risk when he/she fights a Monster. Civilian lives are also accounted for, and a Golden Knight must do his/her best to protect them from harm. Luckily for Teresa, there are no human settlements inside the Monster Territory…

"So this boar is still no much for us..." Alex commented as he saw the boar’s corpse sliding down in front of him. "Well, that just means that we won’t have to worry about any opponent’s in this forest anymore, as this boar was clearly the strongest of in this forest." By relying on what the giant boar said earlier, it seems like the only ones that can defeat Alex and Alina were the high-ranked monsters that the boar was talking about earlier. "The Generals and their Queen Mother..." Alex tried…

"That is..." Alex could not find the right words to say as he felt horrified from what Alina said. "So messed up." These little monsters in front of him were humans before? If Alina did not say that, Alex probably would not have believed it. Upon hearing what Alex just said, some of the little monsters near her started to cry, as if what Alex said directly affected them. "Don’t cry, don’t cry, ok?" Alina had to use both of her hands to calm the little monsters down as she gave another glare at…

Even though Asteria repeatedly told him earlier that he was a powerful Monster right now, Alex still had to make sure that he will be safe in this fight. He looked at the giant boar, who looked like it was about to squash the little monsters in front of it. This irritated Alex, which prompted him to taunt the giant boar. "Oi, you fat stinkin’ pig." Alex said as he waved his tentacles around him in a provocative way. "Do you really have no hobbies right now except ganging up on little monsters?…

To Alex’s indignation, he found out that his new body looked different from what he could have wanted. He still had a humanoid body, but Alex found out that every part of him was covered with green, slimy tentacles that were all serrated with sharp teeth. Needless to say, Alex knew that he just reached the scale of ’creepy and scary monsters that will eat you while you sleep’ level. This fact alone made Alex extremely angry, especially to the dumb fairy. "Oi Asteria, why do I get to be a…

"Ok, so should I go looking for food first, or should we buy our new cultivation bodies first?" Alex inquired as he avoided Asteria’s crafty gaze. "Huh?" Asteria gave Alex a wilting gaze as she said, "Of course you have to buy from the Endless Monarch first! If you don’t, then you will just die if you go out hunting!" "You make it sound like there are monsters living in this forest." Alex said, clearly remembering the ghastly howl that he heard yesterday. "That will be something that I would…

"You told my sister to sacrifice herself, right?" This is the first sentence that Alina said as she and Alex woke up free from their paralysis. "Don’t try lying to me... I can detect if you falsify your answer." "...." Alex, who was about to open his mouth to answer back, closed it as he realized excuses won’t work against Alina anymore. Seeing the cold look on Alina’s face, Alex realized that he had no way out now. "I do not know if you can forgive me, but I have no choice at that time."…

"I’m still alive but barely moving." Alex thought idly to himself as his mouth refused to open for him. "Scratch that, I can’t move at all." Right now, Alex found himself back at the post-paralysis state which followed the aftermath of his use of the Star-Crusted Dagger. Just like what happened before, Alex’s body was once again paralyzed, and he was sure that even Alina was also paralyzed too. Not only that, but he could also barely use his Esper Power too, which should be the same case for…
