Lyrian looked at the boy with a nonchalant expression, "He was denied access since I'm more important than him according to the lady at the front desk." Lyrian retorted. The 8 people sitting inside of the room were impressed by his gutsy attitude, as the young man resembling Ounis Raten gritted his teeth in irritation. At that moment, Lyrian turned to the older man who said he owned the establishment, "Hey, can you get me some food? The best stuff you got." Lyrian ordered, seeing good food around the…-

As Lyrian entered, he was slightly blown away by the sheer size of the place within. A room that was quite large, seemingly the core of the entire building, lay before him. The decorations were plentiful, with plants in various corners, tables, couches for lounging, amazing artwork, and the like. Various passageways with velvet-draped linens could be seen on different sides of the room, and the room was encircled above by a balcony looking down to the floor. The way to get upstairs was clearly…

Lyrian exited the mansion soon after, quickly making his way back into the main city. He turned invisible to hide himself from the crowd as he slithered through it. While moving he thought to himself, 'It's getting late... but I still have a few more hours before I have to sleep.' As he thought this to himself, he suddenly came across an alleyway that had more red lights than the normal streets on the other side of it. 'Hmm... I guess it wouldn't hurt to explore that place now.' Lyrian thought,…

"I regret to say these following words which I dread, but it seems that there is no other option now. There is only one 'group' that wears all black, and has power over this very material," Hyst's father exclaimed, staring at the Dark Ore. "Their name has been mostly restricted throughout the three kingdoms as taboo, but I must speak it here for I have no other choice." He paused, as Lyrian squinted his eyes slightly--feeling as though he had heard all of this before somewhere. "The Black Petal…

Only a few minutes later, Lyrian arrived at the front gates of Hyst's mansion. The black gates slowly opened as a black-suited woman who had a dark complexion noticed Lyrian and jerked to open them up. Lyrian walked inside, and as soon as he walked up the small flight of stairs and attempted to open the door--it swung wide open before his fingers could graze the door knob. Sebastion stood behind the door, looking at Lyrian with a nonchalant gaze, before bowing slightly and swiftly moving to the…

Lyrian mused these words with some empathy for the kids, but his thoughts were more derived from his curiosity about the mission. 'None the less... I've learned a lot from this quest.' He was surprised just how much it related to his mission. A few minutes later, Rothis, Cylline, and Solvir all found themselves well recovered. As they spoke with Lyrian and each other, they walked with the kids back to the village. Cylline and Solvir led the front, while Rothis and Lyrian stayed in the back.…

"Please!" "Save us!" "Thank you for helping us!" "I want to see my family!" Hearing these screams was like torture for the adventurers who were still clashing with the orcs. It wasn't as easy as it sounded, however, since the orcs were quite literally overpowering them with relative ease. However, they did not give up just because of that. In fact, it pushed them to fight even harder. As the orcs attacked, the three used their coordination and teamwork to block and parry the blows. They even…

"I... cannn nott telll you," the Alpha Orc responded, its voice shaking slightly. Lyrian walked closer, tilting his head as he squinted his eyes, "What? Why not? You will tell me..." "N-no! I mustt nottt.... they will surely slayy mee inn enddlesss paainnn." "Slay you? I'm already about to slay you, so there isn't any point in worrying about those humans that you speak of," Lyrian stated without any remorse. Hearing this, the orc grimaced, feeling the horrible emotion of death loom over it. Noticing…

The Alpha Orc froze in place as they felt an overwhelming feeling of doom suddenly wash over him. It stumbled back, feeling the horror of the most terrifying creature it had ever witnessed in front of it. It tripped over its own feet, dropping to its rear. The other orcs gasped in astonishment as they saw this. Never before had they seen their leader be brought down to such a sorry state. "K--kill..." The Alpha suddenly stammered, as one of the two white orcs stepped down and ran to him.…

After walking for a little while longer, Rothis and the other two regained their stamina for the most part, but their bodies were still too tired to fight again. Soon after, Lyrian noticed some differences in the normal stone walls ahead of them. Instead of plain stone, large pillars of wood decorated the cavern. Soon enough, Lyrian saw troops of orcs nonchalantly sleeping near the sides of the cave. They hugged their weapons as they snoozed, but Lyrian didn't care to wake them up. First, he…
