CHAPTER 2: was instantly transported at a dark room that seemed to be a church. The room had rows of long seats, paintings in the ceiling that appeared to be telling a story,a big stage in front where in the seats are facing just like a church on earth. Only, it looked like an abandoned one because of all the dirt that could be seen.was stunned for a moment because of the immediate change of scenery that caused him to stagger. ¡°What theis this place?¡± saidwhile he was still dazed,what puzzled him more was the fact that he was naked all over, like why does he need to be naked, when he was talking to the old man he had his school uniform on,just believed that it was a petty revenge by the god for him because of the irritation he caused it, but after thinking for a while, he decided to walk out of this dusty ass place, pushing the big ass double door that seemed to have not been open in ages, took almost all of his strength, giving him more reasons to think that this was an abandoned church with the creaking sound of the door he was met with a wide expanse of forest. He surveyed all around and found out that the abandoned church was located at the middle of nowhere.thought that this place was probably the place where they prayed for the old man before. ¡°Where do I go now?¡± shoutedat the sky but was only met with chirping sounds of different animals. Without any understanding of the situation,decided to climb on the roof of the church to get an elevated view hoping to see any structure or people that could help himfar from the north he could see structures that he couldn¡¯t comprehend,''what theis that? Why do you have to put your church so far away from the civilization old man ? ''thought, still to him it was something, so he decided to climb down and headed straight to where the structures were, looking at it appeared that it would be hours of walk.was walking for hours that made his feet hurt a lot, adding to that the terrain was also rough,it looked like there really was no one that came to that church for the past decade.decided to take a break and went to a nearby tree to get under its shade because the sun was high up, and he was getting tired more quickly. I¡¯m tired, I¡¯m thirsty, I¡¯m hungry, and also nakedcomplained. He was naked all over when the god transported him to the church, but he didn¡¯t mind it at all because this was a different world and no one would know who he is, after a short break,with his dick and balls dangling he propped himself up and started walking again confidently. ¡°¡± Suddenly he heard a deafening howl. A large wolf like creatures twice the size of his dick popped out of nowhere. The wolf encircled''s naked ass, but he didn''t show any nervousness at all. ''God sent me herewho do you think you barking at''thought. His ass was so confident that he raised his right arm and shoutedHEAVY MACHINE GUNthere was no reaction. ¡°M60, M16,GATLING GUN, M4A1,THOMPSON,MP5, MP3?¡±shouted continuously yet there was still no reaction. The wolf are closing in on him slowly like a predator hunting for its prey, At that momentwas slowly starting to get frightened. He turned around from the wold and started to run. If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. Desert eagle?said softly and then a pistol popped out of his right hand. ¡°!! AHH !! HOW THEIS THIS A MACHINE GUN OLD MAN ?¡±shouted to the heavens while now running away from the wolf as fast as he can. ¡®BANG BANG '' consecutive ear shattering gunshots are heard all over the forest.was running with his ass and dick dangling out in the woods. He was just shooting while also running at the same time all over the wolf without any aim, some bullets hit the wolf, but it didn¡¯t stop the creature from rushing tolike a hungry wolf just chasing for his meal, even though blood marks could clearly be seen on the body of the wolf. With the wolfs thick hide the bullets being shot at it couldn''t penetrate it deep enough to for it to die or even slow down, suddenlytripped on a root that caused him to roll over and sat down facing the twice his dick size wolf.is all covered in bruise and dirt because of the fall. He crawled backwards hurriedly while facing the wolf. The wolf pounced onany hesitation and opened his jawso that made its sharp ass teeth be seen clearly, while the wolf pounced on him.Maron gathered his courage and took aim straight at the wide open mouth of the wolf. ¡®BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG ''pulled the trigger multiple times without any intention of stopping while aiming at the wolf. The wolf crashed straight tobut it was just carried by its momentum, the wolf was dead. ''Ding'' LEVEL UP. ''ding'' LEVEL UP. ¡®ding¡¯LEVEL UP. ding''LEVEL UP. ''ding'' LEVEL UP. heard rings of bell in his head followed by a woman¡¯s voice,stilldidn¡¯t mind it and shouted!!!! SUCKNUTS YOU PIECE OF''BANG BANG'' after standing upshot and kicked the wolf a couple more times to make sure that the wolf was really dead also to boast that he killed a big ass wolf. He danced around the wolf like an idiot for a long time,suddenly he heard a rustling sound behind him. ¡°Whogoes there?¡± asked a deep voice behind him. was startled at first but it his face changed slowly to a smile.turned around joyfully thinking there was a person that could help him,but instead what he saw surprised him, it made his eyes and mouth wide. Chapter 3 ¡°What are you doing?¡± asked the deep voice ''s eyes and mouth was wide open because of what he seen. The owner of the voice was a motherfucking ORC. He knew at first glance that it was an orc because he has seen one on video games, but he didn''t quite expect that he would actually see an orc. Unlike other people that would be shocked''s reaction was the exact opposite. ¡°HOLY!!¡±shouted with both of his hands now on the back of his head. The pistol thatused disappeared all of a sudden with the help of''s will.couldn''t believe that he would actually see an orc. The orc was huge, taller thanby a head. The orc''s arm was almost the size of a log, bulging with a lot of muscle you could clearly see the veins.orc was holding anon one hand, thewas too small for this orc.orc had long hair that reached until his waist, however it was tied at the back of his head. His two teeth was bulging out of his jaw, it looked like inverted fangs that made the orc more intimidating. ¡°Hi, my name is¡± saidand raised his right arm reaching for a handshake but the orc didn''t shake it. ¡°Hello, I''m¡± said the orc with a deep voice only looking at the hand of. He was inspecting''s dick and also the wolf behind him. He was assuming thatkilled the wolf behind, what he couldn''t understand was why he was naked.decided to ask what he thinks was more important. ¡°Did you kill that alpha wolf?¡± wuglatasked. ¡°Uh this?yeah, yeah, you know it pounced on me so there was no other choice but to kill it¡±boasteda pompous face.''so its name is alpha wolfalso thought. thatwas a high level human because the alpha wolf was a strong creature, with a minimum level of 10, evencouldn''t kill an alpha wolf because he was only level 3. ¡°Why are you naked?¡±asked. ¡°Uh this?it''s uh, it''s um. Personal?¡±answered while stuttering because he didn''t know how to answer that question. was now turning around and starting to walk the way he came from, quicklytold him to stop. ¡°Wait, wait, can you help me ?do you have any extra cloth?¡± requested. He was the first orc he met, also he was fascinated from this orc, so he resolved that he wanted this guy to help him.took out a shirt from a pouch that was fasted at his belt.Herehe said while throwing the shirt to.hastily wore the shirt that looked like a worn out one, but he couldn''t complain because that would be rude.was foulmouthed but he was not rude.looked like hip-hop artist with the shirt on because of how big it is. The sleeves reached his elbow, the whole shirt covered his entire body. ¡°So wanna be friends?¡±asked out of the blue extending his right arm for a handshake again.was the type of guy that wouldn''t stop if he got his attention on to something. ¡°Why?¡±asked ¡°why not?¡±retorted ¡°Because I''m an orc¡±said that showed an expression that it was normal for humans and orc to not be friends.? ¡°So what?¡±said with a creased forehead not knowing the reason how that was a problem. ¡°Everyone looks down on orc¡±answered with a guaranteed face. His race was degraded as a weak race not because they were ugly but because their race couldn''t learn any magic. That is the reason why he is always alone hunting, hunting alone was okay on early levels but now that he was growing strong, the monsters that he needs to kill grows strong too, still magic helps fix that difference. It would be different if he had, but he doesn''t have any because he''s not earning enough. He needs to kill stronger monsters to get equipment, but he can''t cause he doesn''t have equipment and friends that would help him.(you guys know where I''m getting at?) ¡°I don''t, in fact I want you to be my¡± said ¡°Okay¡±said still doubting whatwants from him, positive that he would not steal from him, cause the only thing he has is his small ax that cost only a few copper coins. If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. ¡°Okay, let''s go¡±said ¡°where to?¡±asked ¡°To wherever you were going¡±responded already walking to the directionwas moving to. ¡°What about the wolf?¡±asked pointing at the dead wolf''s corpse. ¡°What about it?¡± asked, not comprehending what the orc wants with the body of a dead wolf.thought thatmust be hungry and want to cook the wolf''s meat. ¡°We could exchange it to the guild for coins¡± said ¡°Oh okay, there is a guild ?¡±agreed and assessed that he still don''t know anything about this world aside from being game like, therefore he inquired everything he wanted to know to.dragged the carcass of the wolf, and they both started walking. now knew that they were at a place calledJungle in the jurisdiction of theEmpire at themiddle ofcontinent, at thecontinent there were three kingdoms ; TheEmpire, Piston Empire andEmpire.empire was run by the humans, Piston Empire was run by theandEmpire is a school for mages, but it was too big that the citizens of it decided to call it an empire instead of school. If you''re trying to be a top-tier magicianempire is where you want to be, but they have a strict qualification for you to enter, it is also surrounded by a wilderness full ofmonsters, the only way to get there is by a teleportation chamber that the kingdom controls. The level up he heard earlier is also a normal thing in this world everyone was level 0 the moment they were born, and also there are different classes in this world you could be a [wizard][swordsman][archer][tailor] etc... Sowondered how he would know his class, in whichanswered you need to have an identification stone that could be bought at the guild.took out a blue stone that showed the identification of the wielder.grasped the stone hard and figures started appearing out of the air. {Name:Wuglat} {Level:3} {Species:Orc} {Class:} {Skill:throw (level 2)} now gave the stone to, so that he could determine what class he has.immediately grasped the stone and figures started appearing in the air in front of him. {Name:Maron} {Level:5} {Species:High-human} {Class:Gunner} {Skill:Infinite ammo, Gun Creator (Desert Eagle)} ignorant of the words in front ofasked ¡° Gunner ? What kind of class is that ?¡± It''s a variation of the archer class, instead of a bow I use a gunanswered and quicklyof desert eagle that appeared out of his hands.tried gave it tofor him to review but the moment it got out of''s hand it disappeared, sodecided to just look at it whilewas turning it around forto get a good view of it. The duo was now in front of the structure thatsaw when he was at the top of the church. It looked like a plaza with five pillars surrounding it. There was also drawing of different shapes and lines thatcouldn''t understand at the middle of it. ¡°What kind of structure is that?¡±asked seeing it for the first time. Chapter 4 That is a teleportation gatesaid with a certain voiceIt will transport us near the entrance of the kingdom, this jungle is too far from the empire, so the king decided to hire a powerful mage from theempirehe followed. The only flaw to this is that we need to pay for it in order to use it, however with this alpha wolf we''ll be making more profit, so we''ll use thisexplained further. So if we didn''t have this wolf, we would''ve not use this ?asked. Of course, do you even know how much this thing cost to operate?ridiculed. How much?asked. 1 silver each person!said waiting for a ''too much '' reaction from. Wow, that''s too muchsaid, guessing that 1 silver was probably a high amount. walked over to the middle of the platform, whilewandered around the teleportation gate marveling over the pillars.signaledto come over to his side, so they can be transmitted to the other gate. ¡°What happens now ?¡±asked. ¡°wait¡±answered After a little while the pillars lighted up one by one and the whole platform started to light up, in a moment the two of them were now on an identical platform, howevercould now see a huge gate with guards on each side of it. They walked over the gate only to be stopped by the guards for inspection. You two!, stop, you used the teleportation gate so you guys need to pay a silver eachsaid a bearded guard that looked like fat Thor, in whichreached for his pouch and took out two silver coins and gave it to the fat guard. ¡° I see you killed an Alpha Wolf, must be the reason why you used the teleportation gate, I''ve never seen you use it before¡± said the second guard which was clearly friendlier than the other. No sir, the guy who killed the Alpha wolf is this guysaid with a respectful voice pointing at, in which the guard didn''t believe cause of how frail lookingwas. The duo now walked inside after paying the fee. searched his eyes around while walking looking amazed at every person he walks through. This place was full of different races, there was a dirty dwarf with coal marks all over his facebig boobed elf with a bow at her back, a knight with a full on armor and cape. '' He has acape ''thought, still there were different races but the humans were more prevailing than the other races, 75% of whatsees is a human. This place was unbelievable for, it looked just like the games that he used to play back at earth.looking at the reaction ofmade him more doubtful about him, added to that the constant asking of '' what is this, what is that '' by,believed thatwas from somewhere farm away. We''re heresaid suddenly stopping in front of a big ass building that is full of different races going in and out. This is my guild, It''s calledGuild, It''s a beginner''s guild, they accept anyone as long as you want to be an adventurer, if you want to join another guild I suggest that you apply to, they are a middle tier guild that would gladly accept a level 5 humanexplained before going inside, in whichquickly followed after him. Find this and other great novels on the author''s preferred platform. Support original creators! When both of them got inside the bustling of the whole guild suddenly stopped, after a little while whispers could be heard, clearly they were talking about the two of them, because of whatwas dragging behind him.carried the Alpha Wolf''s corpse and dropped it down with a thud at a desk in front of a receptionist. A girl receptionist, a blonde haired, big boobed one, seeing the girl,couldn''t help himself from looking at her cleavage. He was full now full of lewd thoughts for the girl '' Why is everyone here big boobed ? '' He thought. ¡°H-H-How did you kill this thing?¡± The receptionist clearly showing a face full of shock doubtful about howkilled this wolf. ¡°You, What level are you now ?¡± she followed. I''m still level three Dianne, it was not me that killed this wolf it was him.answered while pointing at, which none believed because of howlooked like.was still only wearing thecloth given to him byearlier, withof wind you would be able to see''s asshole. Hi, I''msaid waving at Dianne while his elbow was on the desk, clearly flirting with her, he was even winking from time to time. UMM, HiDianne said reluctant to wave back. She was checkingout, all she could see was a dirty ass looking full of leaf and dirt man,''s hair was also a mess, stillwas confident of how he looks because he has never seen his self in a mirror. We want to sell this wolfinterjectedto stopfrom creeping Dianne out. Uh, please wait a moment I will get the moneysaid Dianne hesitating seeing that the money on her hands are not enough to pay for this wolf, she stood up and went straight to the backroom. There was always money on the counter for Dianne to get from, however this was the first time of her life that she was handed with an Alpha Wolf, thus the money on the counter wasn''t enough for payment, besides who would exchange an Alpha wolf at a beginner''s guild, when Dianne got back she was already holding a pouch full of coins. She dropped it in front ofand saidThere 70 Silvers in total, it''s supposed to be 80, but we tax everything that you exchange here so the 10 would go to the guild looked atwaiting for his approval that he wasn''t getting ripped off by this extra beautiful receptionist,only nodded, kinda reading''s thoughts.

He was askingto join him for a meal,''s never eaten anything since he came to this world, so with his stomach rumbling the two of them went outside the guild, to look for a place to eat. Chapter 5 After exiting the Lowlaws Guild Maron decided to tell Wuglat everything. The duo is now having a conversation in the middle of the road while walking. Maron gathered his courage and started explaining his situation to Wuglat, in which Wuglat didn¡¯t believe at first, but remembering the things that Maron did when they first met and also Maron¡¯s class and skills, Wuglat reluctantly agreed a little to Maron, Maron told Wuglat that he was from another world, It was his first time coming, he shared what a gun is to Wuglat, It was a hard decision for Maron at first because he didn¡¯t know Wuglat, but seeing Wuglat help him, Maron knew that he was a good person. ¡°What about that High-human class?¡± Wuglat asked. ¡°I don¡¯t know it was my first time seeing it, to be honest with you, I still don¡¯t understand a lot of things, I¡¯m just fascinated at everything here.¡± Maron answered. ¡°You said you were going on a date with Dianne, right? You can ask her, she knows everything that¡¯s happening here¡± said Wuglat. ¡°Okay¡± said maron. The way they are talking to each other you would think that they have known each other for a long time, it seems that they got close really quick. Maron and Wuglat are now turning at an alley getting away from the main streets, at this moment maron was asking about Dianne, it seems like he really fell for the girl. ¡°What type of guy does Dianne like?¡± he asked out of the blue. ¡°Strong guys¡± Wuglat immediately said while still focused on the road, which caused Maron to feel discouraged. ¡°You think I¡¯m not strong? I even killed an Alpha Wolf¡± Maron explained wanting Wuglat to acknowledge that he was strong too. ¡°You don¡¯t look strong, maybe if you wore a decent outfit, instead of only my shirt¡± said Wuglat examining Maron from head to toe, that caused Maron to look at himself. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll buy something before my date with Dianne¡± Maron said. Walking for a while the both of them reached an age-old inn with a sign ¡®The Odd Chair¡¯. Wuglat reached for the door and slowly pushed it, the both of them were displayed with non-humans. Everyone inside was of different race except human. The people inside stopped for a moment and stared at Maron. ¡®HOLY SHITT!¡¯ Maron was overjoyed, but he didn¡¯t show it on his face. Wuglat glanced at Maron thinking that he would be taken aback, but instead of a shocked expression he could see his mouth curving upward. The Odd Chair is an inn where Wuglat frequently eats, this inn was run by an orc, because of that almost no humans come in this place, that¡¯s why the customers of the inn stared at Maron. Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. Maron was fascinated by everything in this inn, the tables were bigger than ordinary there was round table in the middle without any chairs, in which centaurs are standing around it. A werewolf eating a big piece of steak, ¡®that probably is a beatskin¡¯ Maron thought. ¡°Aunt Snak can we have something to eat¡± Wuglat shouted after sitting down at a nearby table, after a little while an old orc walked out of a door that seemed to be like the kitchen. Snak was Wuglat¡¯s aunt this was the reason why Wuglat is a loyal customer of this place. ¡°Wuglat, you¡¯re early today something happened in the woods? and who is this human here?¡± Aunt Snak greeted and talked countinuously to Wuglat. ¡°He¡¯s a new friend of mine¡± said wuglat ¡°Friend? I¡¯ve never seen you with a human friend before, are you sure he¡¯s not taking advantage of you?¡± said Aunt Snak ¡°No, Aunt Snak, I am not taking advantage of Wuglat, I just want to be friends with him¡± Maron answered Aunt Snak, He was already calling someone¡¯s aunt, Aunt. ¡°Why do you want to be friends with my nephew?¡± asked Aunt Snak, like it¡¯s normal for orc and humans to not be friends. ¡°Why not aunt?¡± said Maron ignorant why that is not okay, ¡®Is it really that bad being friends with a human, what kind of humans are in this place?¡¯ Maron thought. ¡°Don¡¯t mind her Maron, by the way Aunt Snak, He still doesn¡¯t have a place to sleep, do you have any room?¡± Asked Wuglat to her aunt changing the subject. ¡°Yes, just take him upstairs¡± answered Aunt Snak now unconcerned about the relationship of the two. ¡°What do you guys want to eat?¡± said Aunt Snak changing the subject. ¡°We¡¯ll have some meat aunt¡± answered Wuglat. ¡°Do you have soda?¡± said Maron wondering if they have it. ¡°What¡¯s a soda?¡± asked Aunt Snak. ¡°Never mind, I¡¯ll just have some juice.¡± Maron quickly said. Aunt Snak went to the back and served them the food they ordered, after that Maron and Wuglat ate the meal and had a conversation, before Wuglat was still unwilling to smile for maron, but now he was laughing his heart¡¯s out to his jokes, after the meal, Wuglat guided maron to the 2nd floor and directed him to his room. The room wasn¡¯t fancy, maron expected it, but still it was more than enough for him. There was a room against the wall a small desk beside it, and a clock hanged on the wall. Maron wondered how it operated, in which Wuglat replied ¡°There¡¯s a mana stone behind it¡±. ¡®Mana Stone, huh, just like a game¡¯ Maron thought, he still couldn¡¯t believe how this game like world work, but he accepted that this was not his world, and resolved to just accept everything as it were. Wuglat left for a moment and got back quickly, he gave Maron new clothes that fit his size, after that he decided to leave Maron alone and give him some rest, after seeing Wuglat left, Maron closed the door and laid on his bed. He pondered for a while about what happened today, ¡®What now?, what do I do now?¡¯ he asked himself, and seated at the side of the bed after. ¡°Desert Eagle¡± Maron said, afterwards he examined the pistol, it was the same as the one in earth except this gun doesn¡¯t have a magazine. ¡°How the fuck is this anywhere near a machine gun, old man?¡± complained Maron while raising the gun to the roof, whining about how unfair it was, afterwards he took out the stone that was given to him by Wuglat, Wuglat never asked to take it back, so he decided to keep the stone, he grasped the stone hard and the figures in the air started appearing in the air. {Name: Maron} {Level:5} {Species: High-human} {Class: Gunner} {Skill: Infinite ammo, Gun Creator (Desert Eagle)} Chapter 6 The stats Maron observed got him so frustrated, he started to think that he made the wrong decision in choosing an infinite ammo machine gun. ¡®How the fuck can this kill a stronger monster, I only got lucky with that alpha wolf, what about the other stronger monsters?¡¯ he thought to himself. ¡°Just a Desert Eagle, huh, what if I just need to level up more to get stronger guns?¡± said Maron convincing himself that that was the reason, time passed by as Maron was experimenting on the desert eagle, he stored the Desert Eagle and decided to get out and explore the city. Maron went to the room beside his, he knocked and said ¡°Hey Wuglat, you there¡±. ¡°Yeah¡± Wuglat answered behind the door without opening it, by the sound of the voice, it looked like he was resting. ¡°Can you guide me I was planning to buy an outfit for my date later¡± Maron said to the door. Wuglat opened the door and said ¡°sure, let¡¯s go, I¡¯ll show you around too¡±. The two of the got out of the Odd Chair and went around the city, Wuglat guided Maron to anywhere he wanted to go, they visited a potion shop, magic shop, weapon shop, everything that maron was curious about Wuglat took him to, their last stop was a clothing store named ¡®Sew Nice¡¯, not only does this shop sell clothes, it also sells armors. ¡°Good afternoon Sir Nasir¡± said Wuglat courteously to the owner of Sew Nice, Nasir was an elf, He was a friendly elf, in fact he was the one who gave Wuglat his magical pouch. He¡¯s also gay, you could see it in the way he dresses and move about. ¡°Hello Wuglat, what can I help you with?¡± asked Nasir with a smile ¡°This friend of mine needs something for his date¡± said Wuglat pointing to Maron, to which Maron shyly waved, he was amazed on Nasir¡¯s dress, He was wearing a gown. ¡°Alright young man, come here and let this mama dress you up¡± Nasir pulled Maron to a nearby room without giving him a chance to reject, after a little while Maron went out of the room looking like a different person, He looked like a person of nobility, but it wasn¡¯t enough for Maron. ¡°I want a cape¡± he said, afterwards Maron got out of ¡®Sew Nice¡¯ head held high and chest out. The duo decided to split up now that Maron has an outfit, also because the appointed time of fetching Dianne was coming, Maron knew the rough idea of where the Lowlaws is, so he told Wuglat to go back first. Maron showed up in front of the guild where Dianne was already waiting for him, she already saw him from far away because of how he dressed, even before arriving in fornt of the guild Dianne was already laughing inside. ¡°Hahaha, you look different¡± Dianne said chuckling. ¡°Well, you didn¡¯t like my shirt earlier, so I got dressed¡± Maron said while chopping his suit. ¡°Let¡¯s go¡± He said again. If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. The two of them walked to a nearby restaurant, ordered some food and drinks, having a fun time, as they were only eating, Maron was constantly asking her about the different monsters, the terrain and what is about this kingdom. ¡°Do you know the name of the king?¡± asked Maron before sipping on a glass of wine. ¡°Of course, the name of the king is Jesus Christ¡± answered Dianne, almost getting Maron to spit out his drink. Maron got so taken aback about what Dianne said, ¡®so he was here, huh¡¯ ¡°What about the monsters around this place. Can you inform me about them?¡± Maron asked. ¡°Sure, what do you want to know¡± said Dianne. ¡°The weak monsters¡± said Maron. ¡°A goblin, it¡¯s one of the weakest, anyone who wants to become an adventurer got to start with goblins or slimes¡± Dianne said. ¡°Wolves, Ogres, Trolls, Golems, Wyverns, once you see a wyvern you need to immediately run the other way¡± Dianne added as she listed the monsters from weakest to strongest. ¡°Those are just the common ones I know, there are a lot of monsters outside, there might even be ones that we still don¡¯t know of.¡± She said. Maron hearing what Dianne said got a vague idea of what he wants to do from now on, as the night passes with their laugh they decided to now get home, because it was getting late. Maron accompanied Dianne to her house, shortly they reached the house of Dianne, seeing as the conversation has stopped, but she still didn¡¯t want Maron to leave, she decided to invite Maron inside for a drink. Maron was overjoyed because of this turn of events, ¡®I¡¯m going to ravage her tonight¡¯ He thought, like a maniac. Maron went inside and sat on the couch in the living room while Dianne went straight to the kitchen to get some drinks, Maron was getting restless by the minute, when Dianne came back she had a bottle of rum with her, ¡°Let¡¯s have a drink¡± Dianne said. ¡°Sure¡± Maron quickly replied, As the night deepens while the two of them were drinking and exchanging stories, both clearly waiting for the other to make a move. Maron gathered his courage and decided to lean in for a kiss, in which Dianne didn¡¯t reject, slowly Maron¡¯s hands were reaching for Dianne¡¯s boobs which caused Dianne to moan ¡°Mn.¡±, this moan got Maron turned on, He ripped the shirt of Dianne apart, two huge mountains displayed themselves in front of Maron. He delved his head at the middle of the two big hills, not stopping there he licked and bit the nipples of Dianne like a motherfucking beast, can¡¯t restrain himself any longer he quickly undressed and ripped the undergarment below and immediately inserting his thing in, that caused Dianne to moan in pleasure ¡°Mn, Mn, Mn¡± she shouted, because of this instead of slowing down Maron went faster and turned to a beast, he ravaged Dianne not thinking about anything else, only focusing on what¡¯s in front of him, as the night deepens only moans and sounds of body clashing with each other could be heard all throughout the house. Chapter 7 Maron woke up with a hint of great pleasure all over his face in his room at ¡®The Odd Chair¡¯, he went straight home after finishing his business at Dianne¡¯s house, because he knew that it would be awkward for the both of them when they wake up beside each other. Maron wore a shirt and strode pass to the stairs, glancing at the open room of Wuglat on his way, he didn¡¯t find him, so he walked downstairs with a satisfied face. He saw Wuglat sitting alone at a table, eating some scrambled eggs, he took the seat opposite of Wuglat and greeted ¡°Good morning Wuglat.¡± ¡°Good morning Maron.¡± greeted Wuglat back with a creased facial expression. ¡°Looks like your date went well¡± said Wuglat now comprehending why Maron is happy. ¡°Yeah, it did¡± Maron said. ¡°Aunt Snak, can I have some breakfasts please¡± shouted Maron at the owner of the Inn, Aunt Snak already prepared breakfast for Maron because that was one of the perquisite of staying in the inn, ¡°Here you go¡± Aunt snack said putting a plate on the table in front of Maron. The cost of living in ¡®The Odd Chair¡¯ is 5 copper a day, Maron already paid for one-week before he started staying here, and also because of Maron¡¯s shopping spree yesterday, overall the money he had left is 5 silver, he spent 50 silver in a day, before he didn¡¯t mind spending it because he still didn¡¯t grasp the amount of that money, but after talking to Dianne he now understands how dumb his decision was spent that kind of money. 10 copper = 1 silver, 100 silver = 1 gold. He was lamenting his decisions, cause he could¡¯ve last months with the money he had, but still with what happened last night the 50 silver was worth it to brighten his feelings. ¡°Wuglat, let¡¯s party¡± invited Maron, in which Wuglat agreed quickly ¡°Sure, I was going to ask you the same thing after breakfast¡±. The both of them had a conversation while having breakfast. ¡°Let¡¯s hunt some goblins¡± said Maron. ¡°I think you¡¯re too strong for that¡± rejected Wuglat. ¡°I just want some experience you know, besides Dianne told me that if you want to be an adventurer you have to start with the goblins¡± Maron explained ¡°All right, we¡¯ll hunt some goblins then¡± said Wuglat accepting the suggestion of Maron. ¡°Let¡¯s go to the Lowlaws first, I want to register there¡± said Maron. ¡°Are you sure? Lowlaws is a beginner guild, with your level you could join a stronger guild, by joining a stronger guild you¡¯ll get a lot more privilege, you even get to join expeditions, and they give you free stuff there.¡± Wuglat explained to Maron. ¡°Yeah, I know¡± said Maron. ¡°Then why?¡± asked Wuglat contradicting the decision of Maron. ¡°Because my friends are in Lowlaws¡± answered Maron. ¡°Just because you¡¯ll be in a different guild doesn¡¯t mean that we won¡¯t see each other¡± explained Wuglat convincing Maron to think again. ¡°Yeah, I know, but instead of joining a stronger guild, why not just make the guild stronger, with you and me there we¡¯d be doing expeditions in no time.¡± explained Maron to Wuglat, who is still reluctant to agree to his decision, in the end Wuglat could only accept and said ¡°Okay.¡± After finishing their meal, the two of them stood up, waved Aunt Snak goodbye and headed outside. As they were walking to Lowlaws they passed by Nasir¡¯s Shop ¡®Sew Nice¡¯, Wuglat told Maron that he was gonna pick up his armor, Wuglat already ordered an armor some time ago, but he didn¡¯t have the money to pay it, still Nasir was willing to let him order it and pay only when he has enough money, that is the reason why Wuglat was at the Dilbo jungle yesterday, a middle level ground. Wuglat wanted to pay for the armor quickly when it arrives, Thanks to Maron he gets to pay on the right time. ¡°Good Morning Sir Nasir¡± greeted Wuglat happily to the elf. ¡°Good Morning to you too Wuglat¡± greeted Nasir back and followed ¡°Are you here for the armor?¡± ¡°Yes¡± Wuglat answered, Nasir went to the backroom and came back with a big platemail, which caused Wuglat¡¯s mouth to curve upwards, for other adventurers this platemail wouldn¡¯t be extravagant, but to Wuglat this armor was the best and first thing he¡¯s going to ever have, when he went to the Dilbo jungle yesterday all he had with him was his small ax and leather armor that was passed unto him by his father. ¡°Here, you can pay me when you have the money¡± said Nasir who was oblivious to the fact that wuglat had enough on him. ¡°Yes¡± said Wuglat grabbing a pouch full of jangling coins, ¡°Here¡± said Wuglat, which surprised Nasir. ¡°Looks like you¡¯ve been saving for a long time¡± said Nasir counting the silver coins inside the pouch, the platemail costed 20 silver, with the help of Maron¡¯s 10 silver yesterday he could now afford it, thereafter Nasir handed Wuglat the platemail, he hastily wore the platemail and showed maron, ¡°How do I look?¡± wuglat asked, in which Maron replied ¡°If you wore that when you met me, I would¡¯ve been twice as amazed, I would¡¯ve even sucked your dick¡±, the reply of Maron caused the two to be taken aback. ¡°Oh, sorry¡± Maron quickly retracted back, after the transaction the both of them said their goodbyes and went on the way. Walking on the road for a little while, the duo reached Lowlaws at last, as they came inside, they were met with a normal environment, other adventurers would side glance at them but that was all nobody really cared for them. The two of the strode straight to the counter, they were met by Dianne who was sitting behind the desk. ¡°Good Morning Babe¡± greeted Maron happily, which caused Dianne to crease her face. ¡°Babe? What does that mean?¡± asked Dianne. ¡°Never mind, and also the thing that happened yesterday was a one time only.¡± Dianne quickly said. ¡°What thing?¡± teased Maron, which caused Dianne¡¯s face to lit up, she suddenly remembered the things that he did to her yesterday, while this was happening Wuglat was looking at them, only aware that they both were on a date and nothing more. ¡°What do you want?¡± Dianne said quickly changing the topic. ¡°I want to register to the guild¡± said Maron. ¡°What? Are you sure? Aren¡¯t you already level 5, you know we¡¯re only a low level guild right¡± Dianne said not believing the words of maron. This narrative has been purloined without the author''s approval. Report any appearances on Amazon. ¡°Yeah, I know, I¡¯m level 5, blablabla¡± said Maron tired of all the glorification of himself, ¡°I don¡¯t care, I want to join Lowlaws¡± ¡°Okay¡± said Dianne, ¡°That would be 5 copper and add 1 more if you want a [low identification stone]¡±. Identification stones and mana stones are classified in 3; the [low identification stone], wherein you could only see the basic stats and has a limited use; the [middle identification stone], wherein you could see your mana, exp, title, and all the stats; the [high identification stone] wherein you could use on another person without contact. Same with the mana stone [low mana stone] can store 100 mana and breaks after use, [middle mana stone] can store 500 mana and breaks after use, and [high mana stone] can store 1000 mana but is rechargeable, all of this was explained to him by Dianne on their date. Maron reached for his pouch and grabbed a silver coin and gave it to Dianne, ¡°Do you perhaps have a [middle identification stone]?¡± Maron asked after paying the fee. ¡°What? Are you deaf? Didn¡¯t you hear what I said we¡¯re only a low-level guild, why would we have a [middle identification stone]¡± said Dianne with a condescending tone. ¡°I¡¯m just asking, why are you so mad?¡± Maron asked. ¡°Because you¡¯re an idiot, do you even know how much a [middle identification stone]?¡± Dianne said scornfully. ¡°How much?¡± Maron asked again. ¡°1 gold¡± Dianne answered that shocked Maron, ¡°What!? 1 gold? How good is it from the [low identification stone] to cost that much¡± Maron asked with a stupefied expression. ¡°A lot better¡± Dianne said firmly, while handing the 4-copper change to Maron, he bought a new [low identification stone], because he was planning to give back the one that Wuglat gave him when they first met, after teasing Dianne for a bit, Maron and Wuglat now decided to hunt for goblins, but before they left, Maron grasped the new stone in his hand and was shocked at what he saw, Maron gave Wuglat his [low identification stone] back, thereafter they moved straight for the door, but they weren¡¯t able to reach the door, because two kids stopped them. ¡°Excuse me, we heard about your conversation earlier with Miss Dianne, it seems like you¡¯re really strong, can you let us join your party?¡± said the boy with the small dagger that looked like he was 15-years old. ¡°We promise, we¡¯ll do our best¡± said the other kid with a small bow. ¡°How old are you guys?¡± asked maron. ¡°We¡¯re 15 years old sir¡± answered the kids. ¡°Look, kids, the place where going is dangerous for kids like you, we¡¯re sorry, but we can¡¯t let you join us¡± Maron explained to the kids with a haughty tone and gave them 5 coppers ¡°Here go buy yourselves something to eat¡±, the kids accepted the coins but kicked his leg and ran away, that caused Maron to squirm in pain, thereafter the two of them walked outside of the guild, suddenly Maron who was still limping said ¡°Fuck those kids¡±. ¡°Why didn¡¯t you let them join us¡± asked Wuglat. ¡°Are you serious? They were only 15¡± said Maron while rubbing his right leg. ¡°I¡¯m 15¡± Wuglat suddenly said, that caused the whole world to stop, Maron was flabbergasted by what Wuglat said, ¡°No Fucking Way!¡± Maron said wide-eyed, while Wuglat was staring at him innocently. ¡°HOLY SHIT! HAHAHAHA¡± Maron shouted at the middle of the road, he couldn¡¯t believe what Wuglat just said, it took him a while to calm down, Maron judged Wuglat based on his appearance, and he felt awful because of it, ¡°I¡¯m sorry for cursing in front of you, I didn¡¯t know you were only 15, if I knew you were only 15 I would¡¯ve watched my mouth, I thought you would at least be older than 25, I¡¯m really sorry¡± Maron suddenly said while they were walking. ¡°Don¡¯t be, I like it when you act like that in front of me, I feel like we¡¯re really close¡± Wuglat responded, as they were walking they weren¡¯t aware that they have already passed the gate and are already in the woods. The two of them stopped in front of a cave. ¡°This is a goblins'' lair¡± said Wuglat. ¡°We will lure them outside one by one¡± he followed. ¡°Why?¡± asked Maron, ¡°I thought goblins were weak¡± he said. ¡°Yeah, they are weak, but that doesn¡¯t mean we¡¯ll rush them, they might be weak but with enough numbers they could even kill a strong monster, don¡¯t underestimate them Maron¡± Wuglat explained and warned Maron. ¡°Yeah, I know, I¡¯m not underestimating them, I have this¡± Maron said spinning his Desert Eagle around his index finger, ¡°Let¡¯s go¡± he invited Wuglat and walked straight to the entrance of the cave, before going in the entrance Wuglat lighted a torch first for their sight, as they walk inside the carefree posture of Maron changed with an alert one. The two of them were side by side entering deeper by the minute, they suddenly heard voices of goblins coming from the direction they were heading to, Wuglat signaled to Maron that he would kill this group quietly to not alert the other goblins, the two goblin were talking when suddenly a small ax flew to the head of the other, and the other was stabbed by a torch in the face, and was hacked with the ax that flew to the head of his friend. Maron saw the whole situation happen, he couldn¡¯t help but clap without a sound ¡°You are so cool¡± he whispered to Wuglat, Wuglat was now chopping the ears of the goblin, because you could submit it to the guild, and exchange it for 1 copper per 2 ears, all of a sudden another goblin came out from the way the other goblins came from, after seeing the two of them, it immediately howled, but was cut shortly because a small ax penetrated its head, but it was too late the howl had already been heard by other goblins, the goblins were all rushing to the intruders. The duo could now hear thundering footsteps. The duo is alarmed by the loud footsteps, they could feel the walls shaking, the horde of these goblins was probably the largest count Wuglat will ever see, as the horde approaches wuglat is glanced at maron and said ¡°I think we need to run¡±. ¡°Nah, I got this, stay behind me¡± said Maron as he signaled Wuglat to move behind him, the horde of goblins was approaching fast, every space of the cave was occupied by a goblin running straight to them, Wuglat was starting to get fearful because of the sound of their cries, as soon as the goblins were at firing range, Maron shouted ¡°MP5¡±. Chapter 8 After shouting MP5, a gun suddenly appeared in his hands. Maron already knew that he had a MP5 before, it was when Dianne handed him the new [low identification stone] earlier, he didn¡¯t know how he got it, maybe because the [low identification stone] given to him by Wuglat was old or something, but still he didn¡¯t care about it, and was just happy that he got another gun, a stronger one, also that is the reason he didn¡¯t want to run even though there was a lot of goblins rushing at them. Maron took aim at the general direction of the goblins, and he pulled the trigger and lets it loose ¡®Dugudugdug¡¯, as he was waving the gun, goblins were dropping like flies, every bullet that he shot would kill a goblin, no matter if they were hit in the head or not, the MP5¡¯s ability to penetrate and shoot continuously made the goblins horde pointless, as this was happening Wuglat in the back was aghast. Wuglat had never seen this many dead goblins in his entire life, even when he goes hunting, he could only kill 5 at most, but he killed it one by one the moment he hears a horde coming he would immediately rush of the exit. Maron was shooting at the goblins with delight, he looked like madman, he was thrilled, he had never killed anyone back at earth, but this feeling of ending another¡¯s life was exhilarating for him, his heart was pounding so hard, he doesn¡¯t know if it was good or bad, all he knows was that it was a nice feeling, after a little while all of the goblins were now sprawled on the ground, anything that moves Maron would shoot right away, the only thing that got near him was goblins blood, in which he was covered in, after killing the goblins Maron panting hard. ¡°They are all dead¡± Wuglat said now beside Maron, he was agape looking at the mountain of corpse, after a moment they calmed down, the two of them suddenly covered their noses, because of the blood stench all over the air. ¡°How many do you think there are?¡± asked Maron to Wuglat, he now realized the great number of bodies on the floor. ¡°More than a hundred¡± said Wuglat. ¡°Let¡¯s get their ears quick, the smell here is unbearable¡± Maron complained, afterwards they both are cutting the ears of dead goblins, this was a first for Maron so he showed a vomiting gesture while cutting the ears of the goblins from time to time, while gathering the ears Maron took out his identification stone and grasped it. {Name: Maron} {Level:10} {Race: High-human} {Class: Gunner} {Skill: Infinite ammo, Gun Creator (Desert Eagle, MP5)} As Maron looked at his stats, he was now Level 10, he didn¡¯t notice the ¡®Ding¡¯ on his head because he was concentrated on the goblins so much, after gathering the ears of the goblins, the bag that Wuglat brought was now full to the brim. The two of them decided to go back, as they were walking home the two of them were talking. ¡°So what level are you now?¡± Wuglat suddenly asked. ¡°I leveled up a lot there, I¡¯m level 10 now¡± said Maron. ¡°What!? You can¡¯t be serious!¡± Wuglat shouted. He couldn¡¯t believe that Maron was already Level 10, so Maron took out his [low identification stone] and showed him. ¡°Is it really that shocking? I killed a lot of goblins though, what about you what level are you now? Maron asked. ¡°Still that doesn¡¯t mean that you could level up 5 times in a row, in fact you¡¯ve only been here for a day you shouldn¡¯t have leveled up that much, I¡¯ve been killing goblins for a month, but I''m still level 3¡± Wuglat said, complaining about ridiculous leveling of Maron. ¡°Is it really that hard?¡± Maron asked. ¡°Yeah, why do you think everyone is shocked that you joined a beginner guild even though you¡¯re already Level 5.¡± Wuglat said. ¡°Maybe it¡¯s because of my race¡± Maron said thinking that was the reason for his crazy leveling. As the both of them were walking at the road back to the kingdom, they bumped into a group of adventurers, the adventurers looked high-leveled with the way they were dressed, there were at least 20 people in their group. The group was being leaded by a three people, the first one was a big boobed Elf with a long bow, the second one was also big boobed but was a human with a staff, the third was a bear with a full set of shining armor and a big shield. Maron couldn¡¯t help but look at the cleavage of the two girls, he didn¡¯t even have any intention of hiding it, he was just ogling at them in broad daylight, where the girls saw and ignored him with a hint of disdain. ¡°Who are they?¡± Maron asked as they continue to their destination. ¡°That¡¯s the Cunningthorn, it looks like they¡¯re going on an expedition, I wonder where they¡¯re going¡± Wuglat said with admiration. Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more. ¡°I meant who were the girls.¡± Maron said. ¡°The elf is Caeda, the human is Aqua, the beastkin is Bruno. They are the top three of the Cunningthorn¡± Wuglat said. ¡° Caeda is a ranger, she uses a long bow last time I heard she was Level 20, Aqua is their mage, she specializes on water magic, I heard she already reached Level 30, and Bruno he is the strongest of the three, I also heard he had a skill called absorb magic, and a teacher at Courian Empire enchanted his shield.¡± Wuglat explained enthusiastically. ¡°Wow! You really like them huh.¡± Maron said shocked about the excessive amount of information he knows. ¡°Yeah, I plan to join there when I level up to 5, they¡¯re the only guild that doesn¡¯t discriminate against the orc¡± said Wuglat. ¡°Why do they hate orcs that much?¡± asked Maron ¡°In the past, the orcs were mighty and strong, but our race were envious of the human structures and magic, in the end they made a big mistake, greed got to their heads, so they decided to attack the Courian Empire, they were almost wiped out, but some escaped and ran far away from Courian Empire, so now we¡¯re here at Cilon Empire, that is the reason orcs are loathed¡± Wuglat explained, he would''ve never told this story to just anyone, it shows that he feels really close to Maron, even though they only met a day ago. ¡°Ow, shit, I''m sorry, I didn¡¯t know you had a dark history¡± Maron said feeling guilty about asking, Wuglat''s sudden story shocked Maron. ¡°It¡¯s alright, It is all in the past, and besides I already have a friend like you¡± Wuglat said. After a little more talking, they finally reached the Lowlaws and went inside, the inside of the Lowlaws isn''t fancy, in fact it was tiny, from first glance you would actually be able to guess that it was just a beginner¡¯s guild, behind the counter you could see a beautiful woman taking care of adventurer''s questions with a smile, which quickly turned to a frown when she saw two guys walking up to him, one was an orc with a bag and the other a man looking directly at her, and the reason for her sudden frown. She doesn¡¯t know the reason she always gets irritated when he saw that guy. Maron was walking straight to the counter with a full smile on his face, he was planning to tease Dianne, he couldn''t help it, he was always like this back at earth, always fooling around when he¡¯s got the time. ¡°Hey babe¡± Maron greeted Dianne. ¡°What do you want?¡± asked Dianne while glaring at him. ¡°We just want to exchange our loot¡± he replied, afterwards Wuglat dropped the bag that he was carrying at the desk in front of Dianne. Dianne inspected the bag with her eyes first, she was stunned after seeing the content, it was full of goblin ears, she couldn¡¯t help but ask ¡°How did you get all of this?¡± ¡°We raided the goblin''s lair¡± Maron answered. ¡°With just the two of you!?¡± Dianne asked not believing that they could raid a goblin¡¯s lair with just them. ¡°What level are you now?¡± ¡°I¡¯m now Level 10¡± Maron confidently said. ¡°What!? That¡¯s impossible, you can¡¯t be Level 10 already you were just level 5 this morning¡± Dianne shouted, because of that everyone is now looking at their direction, now everyone knows that Maron is Level 10. After chattering with Dianne for a bit, they now received their reward, which is 466 copper, Maron wanted to split it in half, but Wuglat denied his decision. ¡°You¡¯re the only one who killed them, so that money is yours, I''ll only take the 3 copper that I deserve" he said,but with Maron''s personality, he didn¡¯t stand a chance, ¡°Oh yeah? I¡¯ll just leave 230 coppers on the road then¡± said maron, in the end Wuglat couldn¡¯t reject and kept the coins. Maron said his goodbye to Dianne which got a shrug in return, the two of them exited the Lowlaws and decided to go back to the inn to eat, after a little while they reached the Odd Chair and entered, when they were inside, the two decided to take a shower first before eating because the sweat and blood was infuriating them, after taking a cold bath Maron went downstairs to see that Wuglat was already sitting at the table, he invited him over, and he sat down opposite of him. ¡°What did you order?¡± Maron asked. ¡°I ordered steak¡± Wuglat answered. ¡°Again? Don¡¯t you get sick with eating steak every time?¡± Maron asked. ¡°Nope, I love steak¡± quickly answered ¡°Alright, Aunt Snak can I have fried chicken and juice¡± Maron said raising his voice for her cause she was at the back, after a little while their food came and they started to dig in, they were both enjoying their food and discussing. ¡°Where do I go if I want to learn magic?¡± Maron asked. ¡°You can go to an academy or buy a magic book¡± Wuglat answered. ¡°What¡¯s the difference?¡± Maron inquired. ¡°In the academy, there are instructors, they would teach you magic from the very basic, and if you¡¯re a top student you get the chance to study at Courian Empire, while buying a magic book you study it by yourself, seeing as you don¡¯t know the basics of magic, I suggest you join the academy¡± Wuglat explained ¡°Does everyone here have magic?¡± Maron asked again. ¡°Well not everyone, but anyone can learn magic though, some just don¡¯t have enough money, even the simplest magic books cost a fortune you know.¡± Wuglat said. ¡°You mean, if you have a magic book you could learn magic?¡± Maron asked to Wuglat. ¡°Yeah, I can, but it would be hard as I¡¯m an orc, and orcs don¡¯t have that much affinity to magic¡± answered Wuglat, as the both of them are talking about magic, suddenly a centaur came up to them, which made Wuglat spit out the juice he¡¯s drinking. Chapter 9 ¡°Are you Maron?¡± asked the centaur startling the both of them. ¡°Uhm, Yeah, Can I help you?¡± said Maron wondering what the centaur wants from him. ¡°My name is Lakian, I heard you were Level 10¡± said the centaur, Maron was shocked how fast the gossip was, looks like everyone in the kingdom knows that Maron is Level 10. ¡°I don¡¯t know, am I level 10?¡± Maron said to Wuglat feigning ignorance. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯m not here to make some trouble for you, I just want to tell you that we¡¯re raiding a dungeon tomorrow morning, and it would be a lot of help if you join us¡± Lakian said, which made Wuglat¡¯s eyes wide, he was waiting for Maron to agree. ¡°If I can bring him along, I''ll for sure join you.¡± Maron said while pointing at Wuglat, Lakian took a long look at Wuglat and said ¡°Okay¡± and immediately walked away, after seeing Lakian exit the door, Wuglat became restless. ¡°That was Lakian, that was Lakian, and he invited you to raid a dungeon¡± said wuglat repeating himself, feeling exhilarated, that made Maron thought ¡®this guy¡¯s really 15¡¯, because of the way he¡¯s acting now. ¡°Calm down, calm down.¡± said Maron as he made him drink juice. ¡°Who¡¯s that Lakian anyway?¡± Maron asked ¡°Lakian The Stomper, he¡¯s a member of ¡®The Peculiars¡¯, I heard he got his title because he stomped an ogre to death¡± Wuglat said. ¡°¡®The Peculiars¡¯? What¡¯s that?¡± Maron asked. ¡°It¡¯s a party of people with titles, their members are Typha ¡®The Druid¡¯ a beastkin, and Aja ¡®The Siren¡¯, a naga¡± Wuglat said. ¡°What about their skills? What can they do?¡± Maron asked. ¡°No one knows about their skills, they¡¯re secretive type of people, all I know is that they¡¯re strong and they raid dungeons with just the three of them¡± Wuglat explained. ¡°Well, we raided a goblin¡¯s lair with just the two of us¡± Maron said. ¡°Are you kidding, that¡¯s waaay different from a dungeon, dungeon¡¯s have stronger monsters you know¡± said Wuglat. ¡°Why did they suddenly invite me? You think they know I''m not from here?¡± Maron asked wondering why they invited him. ¡°I don¡¯t know, maybe?¡± Wuglat said. ¡°I¡¯m not feeling good about this¡± Maron said after taking a bite from his chicken while looking at window. Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more. ¡°You know what, I want a title too, I''ll call myself Maron ¡®The Handsome¡¯¡± Maron said out of the blue. ¡°Hahaha, are you crazy? You can¡¯t make your own title, the people have to give it to you¡± Wuglat said making fun of him. ¡°Well, you can start calling me Maron ¡®The Handsome¡¯ then¡± retorted Maron. The two of them continued their meal, after eating they both decided to call it a day and take a rest for the day, afterwards the two of them walked back to their own rooms. Maron after entering his room jumped straight to the bed, after that he stayed dazed, not thinking about anything, just feeling the room, sniffing the smell of wood, staring at the ceiling, observing all the nooks and crannies of the room, afterwards his eyelids slowly closed and started to doze off. It has been a long day for Maron, he only came here two days ago, but it felt like he¡¯d already been here for far longer, he was still missing his home a little, however he was starting to like it here, even though he¡¯d only been here for a few days, Maron was starting to forget earth a little each day. Maron woken up by a warm feeling on his face, when he opened his eyes, it was already morning, he¡¯d been asleep for the day, he propped himself up and stood beside his bed, afterwards he raised his arms and stretched his whole body, his groans could be heard all over the room, after that he went to the bathroom, washed his face, and changed his clothes to a new one, before leaving his room he took out a stone in his pocket and grasped it, what he saw made a his mouth curve upwards, afterwards he left the room and went downstairs, wherein he saw Wuglat at a table waving at him. ¡°Good Morning Wuglat¡± Maron greeted as he took a sit opposite of Wuglat. ¡°Morning, where have you been? I didn¡¯t hear you leave your room last night¡± Wuglat greeted and asked right after. ¡°I¡¯ve been asleep, in fact I just woke up, I didn¡¯t even eat dinner, I¡¯m starving now¡± answered Maron. ¡°You¡¯ve been asleep for the day? That¡¯s not normal¡± said Wuglat. ¡°Yeah, I know, maybe I was just stressed¡± replied Maron, afterwards Aunt Snak showed up beside them and gave them a bowl of porridge. ¡°Here¡¯s your breakfast adventurers, I heard you raided a goblin¡¯s lair with just you two¡± Aunt Snak said after putting down the bowls, she pinched Wuglat¡¯s cheeks ¡°Look at my little nephew, now all grown up, raiding a goblin¡¯s lair, your parents would be so proud of you¡± ¡°Stop it, Aunt, you¡¯re embarrassing me¡± said Wuglat trying to get Aunt Snak¡¯s hands off him. The scene that¡¯s happening in front of Maron made him cringe, it looks like an old woman pampering a middle-aged man, he couldn¡¯t help but chuckle, after a little while Aunt Snak stopped and took care of other customers, and they started eating the porridge. ¡°So, what¡¯s the plan today?¡± asked Wuglat. ¡°Let¡¯s join with the Peculiar¡¯s raid after breakfast¡± responded Maron, and they focused back on eating the porridge, after finishing the meal, the two went back to their rooms and got their equipment, Wuglat is now wearing his platemail with an ax strapped on his waist, while Maron was wearing the clothes he used for his date with Dianne. ¡°Are you wearing that?¡± asked Wuglat with disbelief. ¡°Yeah, why?¡± responded Maron. ¡°We¡¯re raiding a dungeon¡± sneered Wuglat. ¡°So what? Besides this is the only clothes I have¡± Maron retorted, afterwards they waved their goodbye to Aunt Snak, and went to the gate, outside the gate they saw Lakian waiting with his full armor and a big axe, when Lakian saw the two of them, he couldn¡¯t help but frown. Chapter 10 ¡°Hello Lakian, we¡¯re here¡± Maron greeted happily, Lakian didn¡¯t greet back, but instead asked ¡°What are you two wearing?¡±. Wuglat looked at himself and wondered what was wrong with his. ¡°I know, I''m sorry, but we didn¡¯t have the time and money to buy something¡± said Maron, now guilty of what he¡¯s wearing. ¡°You guys think this is a joke? We¡¯re going to fight strong monsters, and you guys don¡¯t have any armor on you? What¡¯s with that small axe, you think that can kill anything?¡± Lakian complained. ¡°I know, I already said we¡¯re sorry alright, and besides with my weapon I need to be agile, so I don¡¯t need armor¡± Maron responded. ¡°Don¡¯t need armor huh? You won¡¯t be saying that when an ogre bashes you. Come with me¡± said Lakian, and walked back inside the gate, after a little while they came to a weapon shop and went inside. Maron and Wuglat was amazed by the variety of weapons on the wall, there was daggers, bows, spears, axes and staffs hanging on the walls. ¡°Pick your weapon¡± Lakian suddenly said, they were both taken back at what Lakian said, but Maron signaled Wuglat to pick, Wuglat already has his eyes on two axes crossed together, the moment he came inside. He didn¡¯t dare get it because it looked like it was expensive, in the end he took a normal looking axe, but Lakian stopped him. Lakian saw Wuglat eyeing the crossed axes, so he asked the owner ¡°How much are those axes?¡±, ¡°Those are enchanted axes sir, the other has a fire circle in it, while the other has a wind circle on it, with the wind axe once you throw it, it would come back to you, so it would cost 50 gold for them sir¡± the owner said. The price of the axes made Maron and Wuglat¡¯s jaw drop, but Lakian said ¡°I¡¯ll take it¡± and dropped a pouch of coins to the hands of the owner. Lakian took the axes on the wall and handed it to Wuglat, ¡°I can¡¯t accept this sir Lakian, this is too much¡± Wuglat said refusing the axes, in which Lakian responded with ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I''m rich¡± and walked out of the shop, before coming out he shouted ¡°Follow me¡±, the two were dazed and hurriedly followed after Lakian, afterwards the two catched up to Lakian, Wuglat said ¡°Thank you sir Lakian, I promise I would do my best¡±, in which Lakian replied with ¡°Don¡¯t worry kid, it¡¯s really nothing¡±. The three adventurers now came inside a shop, a shop Maron and Wuglat are familiar with, the Sew Nice. The three inside greeted Nasir, and Lakian suddenly said ¡°You two, pick an armor you like¡± ¡°We¡¯re good Lakian, you already bought Wuglat expensive weapons, and besides I already told you I don¡¯t need any armor¡± Maron said refusing Lakian. If you come across this story on Amazon, it''s taken without permission from the author. Report it. ¡°I already told you too, you won¡¯t be saying that when you get bashed by an ogre¡± Lakian retorted. ¡°We can¡¯t abuse your goodwill Lakian, the axes of Wuglat is enough¡± Maron said. ¡°That¡¯s right sir Lakian, Maron is strong, and I have this platemail¡± Wuglat said backing up Maron, afterwards Lakian walked to them and contemptuously said ¡°Just because it¡¯s expensive for you, doesn¡¯t mean it¡¯s expensive for me, I already told you earlier, I¡¯m rich, peasants¡±, which made maron irritated. ¡°Okay, daddy Lakian, if that¡¯s what you want¡± Maron said putting his hands up, and looked at Nasir after ¡°Sir Nasir, can I see your best enchanted armor for me¡± ¡°Sure¡± said Nasir and took a full gold armor at the back. ¡°This is called ¡®Fortune of the Protector¡¯, it is embedded with fire, water, lightning, and it has an enhanced physical defense, this will cost less than the ¡®Cuirass of the Mighty¡¯ of Sir Lakian, it¡¯s only 120 gold¡± Nasir gleefully said. ¡°I want this daddy Lakian¡± Maron said teasingly. ¡°What about you Wuglat?¡± Lakian said ignoring Maron. ¡°I¡¯m okay with this sir Lakian¡± Wuglat said pointing at his own platemail, ¡°Hurry up and pick an enchanted armor¡± Lakian raised his voice, which made Wuglat flinch and hurriedly asked for an armor to Nasir, Nasir went to the back and came back with silver breastplate, ¡°This is called the ¡°Terror Steel Battleplate¡¯, I can guarantee you that you will be able to take an attack head-on from a Level 40 Mage with this plate, It will probably cost pretty even with your breastplate sir Lakian, it¡¯s 400 gold¡±, Wuglat and Maron after hearing the cost almost had a heart attack, he couldn¡¯t believe that there was a breastplate as much as this, wuglat stutteringly said ¡°I ca-can''t take that¡± ¡°I¡¯ll buy the both of them¡± suddenly said Lakian, and dropped a pouch full of coins on Nasir¡¯s hand, afterwards he immediately left the two of them with their mouth open. Maron and Wuglat quickly followed him after wearing the armors on. Three adventurers could be seen on the street, one was a famous centaur, the other was an orc, and last was a guy with a full gold armor on, everyone was looking at the three, Maron couldn¡¯t handle the attention, so his visor was down all the way, after a while they reached the gate and was met with two people and an angry naga. ¡°Where have you been? We¡¯ve been waiting for an hour!¡± Aja shouted, ¡°We¡¯re sorry, we needed to buy something¡± Lakian replied with his head down, ¡°Buy something my a-¡±, when suddenly a person in robes said ¡°Is it him?¡± and looked at Maron, this person was covered by the hood of its robe. Lakian finally answered "Yeah, I hope so" Maron was picking his nose when the person on robes, suddenly stared at him, ¡°Uhm, Can I help you?¡± Maron asked as he was backing up, because the person in robes was walking up to him. ¡°Are you from earth?¡± the person in robed said with a soft voice. The question of the robe person made Maron''s body jolt. Chapter 11 The person in robes pulled back the hood, it was a girl, a beautiful girl, she was an Asian girl, you could clearly see it from her facial features, her skin was clear white, her eyes was a black hole that would suck you inside, her hair was silky black, she was a goddess. ¡°Y-yeah, are you from earth too?¡± asked Maron still mesmerized by her eyes. ¡°Yes¡± the girl said. ¡°I¡¯m Maron by the way¡± Maron said raising his right-hand for a handshake, which the girl grabbed and said ¡°I¡¯m Sakura¡±. ¡°Sakura? Like in naruto?¡± Maron asked. ¡°Yeah¡± Sakura said while chuckling. ¡°I-I don¡¯t know what to say, uhm, nice to meet you?¡± stuttered Maron, ¡°Yeah, nice to meet you too¡± Sakura replied, while this was happening everyone else was looking at the two of them, ¡°ahem, can we get going first? You guys can talk on the road¡± Typha suddenly interrupted, the two''s reunion was cut to a short, everyone started walking to the teleportation chamber with a horse and wagon, their destination was the ''Rugged Wilderness'' a jungle 100 kilometers south of ''Dilbo Jungle'', they were going to use the teleportation chamber to shorten their travel time, all of them stepped inside the teleportation chamber and were transported. After a little while the scenery changed to a field of verdant trees, the party stepped out of the chamber and started riding the wagon, afterwards they were on their way inside the jungle, this time inside the wagon, the started to talk. ¡°So, how did you find yourself with these guys?¡± Maron asked. ¡°When I was transported, they were on their way back to the kingdom from a dungeon, Aja saw me pop out of nowhere, and they decided to take me in. What about you?¡± answered Sakura. ¡°I was transported inside a jungle, and an Alpha Wolf almost killed me, but thankfully I had a gun, a pistol, a Desert Eagle, I wanted a machine gun by the way, and then thankfully I killed it, afterwards Wuglat found me, and now I¡¯m here. What about you? What item did you want?¡± Maron explained and asked after. ¡°I have an invisibility cloak¡± Sakura said while flapping her robe, ¡°Not only that, the god also gave me a wand¡± she added while also showing her wand. ¡°WHAT!? You have an invisibility cloak? And a wand, that''s bullshit¡± Maron complained, he was already jealous of the invisibility cloak alone, but when he heard she had two items, he lost his mind at the unfair treatment of the god. ¡°That stupid old man¡± said Maron under his breath. ¡°So, what''s your class?¡± Maron asked. ¡°I¡¯m a sorceress, what about you?¡± answered Sakura. ¡°I¡¯m a, I''m a gunner¡± whispered Maron. ¡°A what?¡± asked Sakura, because she didn''t hear what maron said. ¡°A gunner¡± Maron said raising his voice. ¡°A gunner, so you use guns, what kind of guns? Can you show me?¡± Sakura asked continuously, she had never seen a gun in her entire life before, so when Maron took it out, she was fascinated and couldn''t stop looking at it, not only her even the party was looking at the MP5 and Desert Eagle, after a little while of observing the gun, Sakura asked ¡°What level are you?¡± ¡°I¡¯m Level 10¡± Maron confidently said, which made the whole party snort, except Wuglat and Sakura. ¡°Why? What level are you guys?¡± asked Maron. ¡°We¡¯re all Level 30 kid, except Sakura she''s Level 40¡± answered Typha, which made Maron speechless. ¡°Well, I''ve been only here for a few days¡± Maron said hoping for at least a little comeback. ¡°You¡¯ve only been here for a few days? Why? How? I¡¯ve already been here for almost 3 months¡± Sakura wondered, after hearing what Sakura said, Maron was aghast, he doesn''t know the reason, so the only response he could give was ¡°I don''t know¡±, afterwards there was a long silence inside the wagon. Maron was curious about Sakura, so in the end he decided to ask ¡°Can I see your stats? I¡¯ll let you see mine too¡±, which surprised Sakura at first, but before she took out a [middle identification stone], Lakian stopped her and said ¡°Sakura, you can¡¯t just let anyone see your stats¡±, she replied with ¡°It okay, I trust him¡± and let Maron see her stats.

What loot?¡± asked Maron, not knowing what Aja means. ¡°Didn¡¯t Lakian explain to you?¡± said Aja while frowning upon Lakian. In which Lakian said ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I should¡¯ve explained it to them earlier, but something happened, and I forgot¡±, Lakian was hiding the fact that he bought the two of them armor, cause for sure he would get a scolding from Aja, if she knew. ¡°All right, I¡¯ll explain it to you¡± Aja said while calming herself down, she was furious of Lakian¡¯s negligence, ¡°When raiding a dungeon, you get tons of experience and gold, sometimes there are items, every items we find we find, we distribute in order, the order is this Lakian-Aja-Typha-Sakura-Maron-Wuglat" explained Aja to the two, in which Maron replied ¡°I understand, you want me to skip a rotation, and give it to you?¡± Maron said after comprehending what Aja said. ¡°That¡¯s right¡±, ¡°Okay, I accept¡± Maron said. ¡°All right¡± responded Aja, afterwards she took out a book from her pouch, and gave it to Maron, ¡°That magic book is called ¡°Song of the siren¡±, it¡¯s effect is sleep, one you activate it everyone in the 5-meter radius sleeps, however some monsters are immune to this skill, so I suggest you always be careful¡± Aja explained, afterwards the two went to a study session, while the others talked to themselves, and their wagon continued to journey through the woods. Wuglat came outside during everything, he sat down beside Typha, which is in the driver¡¯s seat, controlling the horses. ¡°Hi, I¡¯m Wuglat¡± he greeted. ¡°Hey, I¡¯m Typha¡± Typha said, Typha was beastkin, he has a white, brushed up hair that reveals a strong, sharp face. Deep hazel green eyes that of a hawk, his face shows an expression of experience, he has a pet hawk flying in the sky watching over them. ¡°I heard from Lakian that he bought you equipments¡± Typha suddenly said, wanting to start a conversation. ¡°Yeah, and I don¡¯t know how to pay him back¡± Wuglat expressed. ¡°Don¡¯t worry about it, he would¡¯ve not bought you one if he didn¡¯t have the money now, did he? If you really want to pay him back, make sure you do your best inside the dungeon¡± Typha explained to him. ¡°Yes sir, I''ll try my best¡± Wuglat said, after hearing Typha¡¯s explanation, he realized that the equipment wasn¡¯t something to think over. After a little while a cave could be seen by Wuglat, when suddenly Typha shouted ¡°We¡¯re here¡±. Chapter 12 The four inside the wagon heard Typha¡¯s shout, the three got out first, while Maron finished a little more reading. Typha guided the horse to a tree and tied a rope around it, so that it won¡¯t run off, afterwards the Peculiars observed the dungeon, it¡¯s a big cave, 15 feet wide, its side full of moss, showing that it has been a long time since someone entered, no one in the party knows what type of monsters are inside, when they were inspecting the cave, Wuglat went inside the wagon to check up on Maron. ¡°Hey, we¡¯re here¡± Wuglat poked Maron, which was focused on the book. ¡°Yeah, I¡¯m just going read this part one more time¡± after reading Maron closed the book and stared at Wuglat, ¡°I thought it would be easy once you have a magic book, I didn¡¯t know you needed to memorize, this would take me weeks to memorize¡± Maron complained as they got off the wagon, he went to straight to Aja to ask for more advice. ¡°Aja, is there no other way to learn magic?¡± Maron asked. ¡°There is, but do you have a wand or a staff?¡± Aja replied. ¡°Why do I need that?¡± Maron asked. ¡°You can embed a magic circle on a weapon, just like Sakura¡¯s wand, she embedded all her skills there, so whenever she needs to cast a skill, she just shouts the name and it will be casted¡± Aja explained. ¡°Well, I don¡¯t have any wand, do you perhaps have any spare?¡± Maron asked Aja which made her baffled, ¡°I don¡¯t have a spare, I''m more than satisfied with my staff, why would I need a spare?¡± Aja said as she caressed her staff, afterwards Maron decided to ask Sakura, ¡°Sakura, do you have any spare wand?¡± Maron said as he was scratching the back of his head, he was shy, but his eagerness to learn magic was far bigger. ¡°I¡¯m sorry Maron, I don¡¯t have any, but I have many magic books, if you need anything don¡¯t hesitate to ask me¡± Sakura said, her voice was of an angel, Maron felt his heart beat fast, Sakura was so cuteness was too much for him. ¡°I-It¡¯s alright¡± Maron said while flustered, because Sakura was looking straight at his eyes, ¡°So, why are we still not coming inside?¡± Maron said turning his head away from Sakura, after turning his head, he now realized how big this cave is, it was his first time seeing a cave, he couldn¡¯t help but be awed, inside the cave was pitch black. ¡°Typha is checking up on the equipment again, he¡¯s always like that, that¡¯s why we can be complacent¡± Sakura explained, afterwards Typha finished inspecting the items of the party, and said ¡°Let¡¯s go¡± The party now entered the cave, their formation was three rows of two, Typha and Aja in the front Maron and Wuglat in the middle, and Sakura and Lakian at the rear. This formation was formulated by Typha, he put the two in the middle because they were the weakest of the group. Inside the cave was dark and only the light from the torches provided them vision. Aja was using her staff as a torch, Sakura was using her wand, and Wuglat was using the ax that Lakian bought for him. ¡°That¡¯s cool, I thought you didn¡¯t have magic¡± Maron suddenly said to Wuglat, amazed at how he looked. ¡°Well, this ax is enchanted with a magic circle, so I only need to supply it with my mana¡± Wuglat explained. ¡°But, that¡¯s not a wand or a staff¡± Maron said realizing something, afterwards he took out his Desert Eagle and asked Sakura to enchant it. ¡°I can¡¯t, I don¡¯t have the enchanter class¡± Sakura replied with a sorry voice which made Maron feel down. ¡°But, Aja might have it¡± she said afterwards. This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report. ¡°I can, but what¡¯s in it for me?¡± Aja said. ¡°Come on man, I already gave you one of my rotation¡± Maron responded. ¡°Yeah, but that was for lending you the magic book¡± Aja retorted, suddenly Wuglat intervened and said ¡°You can take mine¡±, in which Maron rejected ¡°I can¡¯t that¡¯s yours¡± he said, ¡°It¡¯s alright Maron, we¡¯re best friends right? Besides I already have these weapon and armor¡± said Wuglat, Maron was unwilling at first, but with what Wuglat said he accepted. ¡°Alright, Aja you can take Wuglat¡¯s rotation¡± Maron firmly said. ¡°Okay, I''ll enchant your gun with the ¡®song of the siren¡¯¡± Aja replied. ¡°What? No, I want something stronger¡± Maron refused what Aja aid, ¡°Okay, I won¡¯t enchant it then¡± Aja firmly said, Maron was resistant, but he didn¡¯t have a choice, so in the end he accepted and put out his Desert Eagle and placed it on his hands, afterwards Aja quickly put her hands on the gun and recited some words, which took minutes, after stopping a green light shined from Maron¡¯ gun and disappeared, she smiled at Maron and said ¡°It¡¯s done¡± and took her hands back. Maron didn¡¯t feel anything and said ¡°It¡¯s done, I didn¡¯t feel anything though¡±, in which Aja retorted with ¡°I enchanted your gun, not you, Idiot¡±, afterwards Maron took out his [low identification stone] and grasped, what he saw made his mouth curve upwards. {Name: Maron} {Level: 10} {Race: High-human} {Class: Magic Gunner} {Skill: Infinite Ammo, Gun Creator(Desert Eagle, MP5, AA-12), Sleep bullet} The party has been walking for a while, the cave was slowly getting tighter the more they go deep inside, what¡¯s strange is that they have never encountered any monsters, this gave them a terrible feeling, when suddenly Sakura found a door, everything they passed by was either a rock or a stone, except this door, it was made out of wood. ¡°Why would there be a wooden door here?¡± Sakura wondered, everyone else was disturbed by what Sakura said. ¡°What door?¡± Typha asked. ¡°Can¡¯t you see it? It''s right there, a wooden door¡± Sakura said pointing at the wall beside Typha, everyone was shocked and stared at the wall beside Typha, they couldn¡¯t see anything. ¡°Are you sure there¡¯s a door there Sakura?¡± Lakian asked to make sure, in which Sakura responded with ¡°I¡¯m sure Lakian, why would I lie?¡± ¡°Okay, Aja cast a dispel on that wall¡± Lakian ordered, afterwards Aja didn¡¯t ask any questions and started murmuring some words, after a while the rock wall seemed to melt and showed a wooden door, everyone stared at the wooden door shocked. ¡°There really is a wooden door¡± Maron said. ¡°What now?¡± Wuglat asked, they were all thinking the same thing, but no one was brave enough to open it, all of them stopped on their tracks and are now surrounding the door, the party decided to open it, so everyone was in position, ready for any monsters that might come out. ¡°I¡¯ll open it now¡± Typha said gesturing to open the door, everyone nodded in response, afterwards Typha slowly opened the door, with a creaking sound the door was being opened, everyone was tensed and alert, Maron even gulped hard with his MP5 aimed right at the door, until it was already halfway opened, still there were no monsters rushing to them, when it opened they were met with an empty dark room. ¡°Well, that was anticlimactic¡± Maron jested, afterwards everyone came inside the room one by one, the party is now inside a room, this room was damp, dirty, the light of their torches could only illuminate a certain radius so they needed to get close to the walls, as they walk inside hands on the walls, bumps could be seen, like half pillars bulging out of the wall, as they walk they found out that there are a total of ten bumps, each one of them deliberate about what kind of room this is, when suddenly Lakian started walking to the middle of the room, afterwards every pillar lighted up, and then Lakian shouted ¡°Get ou-¡±, everyone in the room suddenly disappeared, the door closed, afterwards the rock walls slowly covered it, and only silence could be heard. Chapter 13 Maron woke up with a sore head, he stood up and looked around, he saw everyone else on the ground, and woke them up, ¡°Hey, wake up¡± he said pushing Wuglat, afterwards Wuglat opened his eyes with a groan, Wuglat looked around and said ¡°Where are we?¡±, in which Maron replied ¡°I don¡¯t know, wake them up first¡±, after that Maron and Wuglat woke up the other members, everyone¡¯s condition was the same, the moment they wake up they ask ¡°Where are we¡±. Maron after waking the party started to observe around, they are standing at a teleportation chamber, in the middle of what seems like a plaza, they were wondering why it was bright here, it looks as if they are outside, they were surrounded by buildings like in the city, except there are no people around, but there were statues everywhere, realistic, white, marble statues, like in ancient Rome or something. Typha walked around and started inspecting the teleportation chamber, there was only nine pillars around it, one appeared to have collapsed, because the rubble could be seen, Typha tried to start the teleportation chamber, but it was futile, if they wanted it to work again, they needed to fix the pillar, but that would take a couple of hours at most, so the party decided to stroll around the place while Typha fix the chamber. The party split themselves to two for faster results, afterwards they started to roam around the place, the first group include Lakian, Maron, and Wuglat, while the other group consist of Aja and Sakura. Maron was inspecting a statue of a man with his mouth open. ¡°What is this place?¡± He asked while knocking on the forehead of the statue, Maron felt troubled. ¡°This place looks like a town, except it¡¯s filled with statues¡± Maron said, as he walked inside a building that looked like a shop, as they came inside, the three was shocked at what they saw. This place was a weapons shop, different types of weapons hanged on the wall, web and dirt covered weapons could be seen. ¡°Jackpot¡± Maron said, as he grabs a big ass battle axe, it was so heavy for him, it dropped on the ground when he tried to carry it, afterwards he turned his attention to a black bladed dagger, he picked it up and waved it around, ¡°Can I have this?¡± he asked Lakian, who was putting a gold sword to his magic pouch. ¡°Yeah, sure, there¡¯s a lot of weapons here, I don¡¯t think Aja would be mad if you pocket a small dagger, but still don¡¯t tell her¡± Lakian said as he now carries the battle axe Maron couldn¡¯t pick up, while this was happening Wuglat was hanging every ax he can on his body. The second group entered a building, this place was an inn, there are tables and chairs all over, a bar with statues that looked like they were drinking, the two opened a door and found stairs going down, they went down the basement and lighted up their wand/staff, what they saw inside the basement surprised them, it was full of barrels and wine, it was a cellar. A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation. ¡°Jackpot¡± Sakura said, as she picks up a wine and stores it straight on her magic pouch, Aja agreed and opened up a bottle and smelled it, ¡°What a great smell¡± she said and drank, afterwards the two stored everything in the cellar, they decided to get out because their magic pouch was full. The first group finished storing weapons, afterwards they went inside the building beside it, what they saw almost gave them a heart attack, this place was a magic shop, Maron said ¡°I¡¯m going to fucking cry¡±. He went to a table and picked up a book, he blew the dust off of it, and the name started to emerge, ¡®Hand of God¡¯, ¡°The fuck is hand of god?¡± Maron said and threw it to Wuglat ¡°Here you can learn that¡±, afterwards Maron picked up another book and blew the dust off it, ¡®Overpower¡¯ ¡°I don¡¯t think I need this¡± Maron said, he threw the book to Lakian because he looked like he¡¯s the one who need that, after that Maron started to inspect every book, he holds on to magic books he like and throws it to Wuglat or Lakian if he doesn¡¯t. ¡®Poison shot¡¯, ¡°I¡¯m going to keep you¡± Maron said. ¡®Hoof stomp¡¯, ¡°What!? This is clearly for Lakian¡± he said and threw it to Lakian. ¡®Mammoth strike¡¯, ¡°NOPE¡±, ¡®Darkness Slash¡¯ ¡°NOPE¡±, ¡®Thunder shot¡¯ ¡°YES¡± ¡®Repel¡¯ ¡°NOPE¡± While he was picking up magic books, the other two was picking up different staff and wands, afterwards Wuglat opened a drawer, what he saw made his mout smile wide, it was mana stones and identification stones, he picked up two of each and called Lakian. ¡°Sir Lakian, there are identification and mana stones here¡± he said, which Lakian walked over and put everything in his magic pouch. ¡°My pouch is full, we can go back now¡± Lakian said, everyone agreed with pleasure and exited the building, they were full on smile while walking back to the teleportation chamber, as they were walking back, they found the other two exiting a building cheerfully. ¡°Hey, we found wine¡± said Aja happily. ¡°We found weapons and magic books¡± Lakian said, as they were walking back to the teleportation chamber, the party saw a person facing backward of them, it was clearly a girl with her head covered in a cloth, her figure was voluptuous, her chest was perfect, not too big, not too small, enough to make any man go crazy, waist was so thin, dress was white, skin tight, showing the curve of her body, but this didn¡¯t affect the party, they all had their weapon prepared, and alert. ¡°Who are you?¡± Aja shouted, as soon as she said that, Maron raised his voice and said ¡°Close your eyes¡±, the girl turned around, her hairs cover fell off, and a cluster of snakes hissed, afterwards the party saw her blue eyes and turned to stone, except Maron, Sakura and Wuglat, Wuglat didn¡¯t close his eye on time, but Maron jumped on him and covered it, while Aja and Lakian stared directly unto Medusa¡¯s eyes and turned to stone. Chapter 14 ¡°Close your eyes Wuglat, don¡¯t try to look at her¡± Maron said. ¡°Yeah¡± Wuglat said nervously, the two of them stayed still, and never dared to move, while Sakura looked at the statue of Lakian and Aja, she trembled with fear, she stared at the statue of Lakian and Aja, afterwards she was filled with intent to kill, she quickly took her wand and cast a fireball. ¡°What did you do to them!?¡± Sakura shouted angrily to the woman. Medusa waved off her hand and blocked the fireball, Sakura casted all her spell consecutively, while Medusa blocked all of it, Sakura¡¯s mana was substantial, however with the way she casts her spells, it was getting expended swiftly, but with her emotions to avenge her party, she didn¡¯t care anymore, tears were falling on her eyes, she was snuffling while casting, she thought she was strong, but this woman was blocking all her spells with ease, she felt helpless, after exhausting all her mana, she lost her balance and fell over. Maron heard every shout of Sakura, but he didn¡¯t know what to do, he was frozen in place, with his eyes closed, he wanted to help Sakura, but he was scared, after a little while he heard Sakura fall over, he went to the sound of her, and tried to help her up, but she wasn¡¯t moving. ¡°Hey, Sakura, wake up! Wake up!¡± Maron shouted, but it was in vain, she lost her consciousness. ¡°SHIT! SHIT! FUCK!¡± Maron cursed all over, he didn¡¯t know what to do, so he carried Sakura and ran away from Medusa, ¡°Wuglat! You okay, follow my voice and come to me¡± he shouted to Wuglat. ¡°I¡¯m okay¡± said Wuglat, and quickly ran after the voice of Maron, the two of them are now hiding behind a statue, they¡¯re thinking of a strategy, when suddenly they heard her voice behind them, they quickly shut their eyes, Medusa closed in on them, and caressed Maron¡¯s face. ¡°How did you know my powers?¡± asked Medusa with an alluring voice, ¡°Anyone that seen my powers has turned to stone, so how did you know about them?¡± she followed circling around them. ¡°I¡¯ve heard stories about you¡± Maron said turning his head away, while the snake hair of Medusa was snipping on his face. ¡°Where?¡± Medusa whispered to Maron with an alluring voice, as she thrusts her boobs on Maron¡¯s body, she was even putting his hands over her genitals, she was grabbing his dick even. ¡°Back at my home¡± said Maron, he was sexually aroused by Medusa, his dick was hard, he could feel the whole body of Medusa. ¡°Where¡¯s your home?¡± whispered Medusa, as she was kissing and licking Maron¡¯s face. ¡°Earth¡± Maron said. ¡°What about your friend, how can she resist my powers?¡± asked Medusa. ¡°She has a skill, Repel Magic¡± Maron said, he was under Medusa¡¯s spell, that was why he was answering all her questions.Stolen content alert: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences. ¡°Why don¡¯t you open your eyes, and look at my body¡± Medusa said enticingly, Maron was going to open his eyes, when suddenly a big force pushed him to the ground, it was Wuglat, when Wuglat heard her, he lunged straight at Maron with his eyes still closed, after lunging Medusa who was near Maron, was also caught in Wuglat¡¯s pounce, she shouted ¡°How dare you!¡±. Maron recovered his mind, afterwards he shouted ¡°AA-12¡± while still on the ground, and quickly rained on the voice of Medusa ¡®BAGBAGBAG¡¯, he was shouting his lungs out while pulling the trigger ¡°AHHHH!!¡±, he didn¡¯t stop shooting, he didn¡¯t care if he was missing, he aimed at where he heard Medusa, his arm was hurting because of the recoil, however it didn¡¯t stop him from pulling the trigger, after a while he stopped and heard a sound on his head, ¡®Ding¡¯ Level up, was heard a couple of times, afterward he opened his eyes. Maron saw Medusa laying on the ground, Sakura still unconscious, and Wuglat on the ground covering his ears and his eyes still shut, he went to Wuglat and tried to help him up ¡°Wuglat, it¡¯s okay now¡± he said, afterwards Wuglat stood up and looked around, ¡°Thank you for saving me¡± Maron said and hugged him, ¡°Yeah, no problem¡± Wuglat replied and hugged back, after that Maron went to Medusa¡¯s corpse, he pulled out his AA-12 and shot Medusa a couple more times, ¡°YOU FUCKING BITCH!!¡± Maron shouted. After venting his anger Maron and Wuglat went to Sakura and tried to wake her up, ¡°Hey, Sakura, wake up¡± Maron said as he pressed her, Sakura groaned a bit and woke up, afterwards she immediately asked ¡°Where¡¯s Lakian and Aja¡±, Maron and Wuglat pointed at two statues standing beside each other. Sakura ran up to the two statues and hugged it, ¡°No, no, no, no¡± she repeatedly said, afterwards she bawled out loud for a while, and she sat on the ground, she didn¡¯t know what to do, she felt powerless, weak, helpless. ¡°Why did this happen?¡± Sakura suddenly asked, in which Maron and Wuglat couldn¡¯t reply, they stayed there for a while, a couple of minutes has passed. Maron decided to stand up, and urged the group to move, she helped Sakura who has now calmed down a bit, the party started moving to the teleportation chamber, while Sakura was glancing back to the statues a lot of times, as they came back to the teleportation chamber, they saw the statue of Typha holding a pillar up looking at their direction, it looked like he finished fixing the chamber when Medusa came, after seeing Typha, Sakura couldn¡¯t help herself from crying, she was going to fall over again, thankfully Maron was beside her helping her stand. ¡°It¡¯s okay, it¡¯s alright¡± Maron said, as he supported Sakura up, the group now walked to the middle of the teleportation chamber, afterwards the pillars lighted up, and they were transported at the small room once again, they walked slowly to the door, the party now opened the door and started walking back outside, when they came outside it was already nighttime, they untied the horse. ¡°Can I be alone for a moment¡± Sakura said, as she climbed inside the wagon and didn¡¯t wait for a reply. ¡°Yeah, sure¡± Maron replied, he and Wuglat climbed up on the driver¡¯s seat, Wuglat whipped the horse and the carriage slowly moved to its path back to the kingdom, it was a quiet journey, everyone was tired and nobody wanted to talk, the night passed with the sound of the wheel and sounds of insects. The party travelled all night long, it was already dawn when they reached the kingdom, everyone was gloomy, they paid the guards for using the teleportation chamber, and didn¡¯t greet back to their good morning, the carriage and horse they used was left in a stable, before they went on the road Maron asked Sakura ¡°Sakura, do you have any place to say? You can stay at our inn, the owner is Wuglat¡¯s aunt, so you might get a discount, the food is good too¡± ¡°Sure¡± Sakura said and showed a dispirited smile, she walked quietly beside the two of them, afterwards they finally reached the inn, the two greeted Aunt Snak and explained the situation, Aunt Snak agreed with no objection, and hastily accompanied her to a room upstairs. The two also went upstairs, before coming inside their room, they looked at each other and said ¡°See you later¡±. Maron took of his golden armor and dropped it on the floor, he didn¡¯t jump straight to his bed this time, instead he went to the bathroom and took a long shower, inside the bathroom he recalled everything that¡¯s happened, he met a companion from earth, learned magic from a Naga, a centaur bought him armor, his friends turned to stone, he killed Medusa, which was unbelievable, it was a really long day for Maron, he¡¯s only been in this world for less than a week, but there¡¯s already a lot that happened, afterwards he finished taking a bath, he didn¡¯t wear any clothes, and jumped on straight on the bed, he stared at the ceiling for a while, afterwards his eyes slowly closed, as he falls to a deep sleep. Chapter 15 When Maron woke up it was already afternoon, he got up from his bed, stretched his body, wore clothes and headed downstairs, he didn¡¯t check up on the other two because he didn¡¯t want to bother them, Maron asked Aunt Snak for a meal, and Aunt Snak gave him one right after, Maron ate the pork soup given to him, afterwards he went back to his room after finishing his meal, Maron sat down on his bed and took out a [low identification stone] and grasped it. {Name: Maron} {Level: 20} {Race: High-human} {Class: Magic Gunner} {Skill: Infinite Ammo, Gun creator (Desert Eagle, MP5, AA-12), Sleep bullet (0)} After seeing his own stats, he smiled, he levelled up by 10, just by killing medusa alone, he was supposed to be happy, but reminiscing what happened to the Peculiars, he couldn¡¯t make himself jump around of joy, after pondering for a little while, he got up from his bed, and went to the golden armor on the floor, he grabbed a black dagger, a magic book ¡®Poison Shot¡¯ and ¡®Repel¡¯, these are the things he kept on himself and didn¡¯t give to Lakian, well the ¡®Poison shot¡¯ he purposely kept, but the ¡®Repel¡¯ he just forgot to hand it to Lakian, everything on Lakian¡¯s body turned to stone even the magic pouch, every weapon they stored there turned to stone. He didn¡¯t have anything else to do, so he opened the magic book. ¡°Poison shot, I think I''m going to study you¡± Maron said as he browses through the pages of the book, he was so immersed on the book, that he didn¡¯t realize that it was already night, afterwards Maron¡¯s body flashed with a hint of green, he was successful at learning poison shot. ¡°YES! YES! I did it, I learned it, hahaha!¡± Maron shouted while his hands are raised in the air, he grabbed his [low identification stone] on the desk by his bed, and grasped it. {Name: Maron} {Level: 20} {Race: High-human} {Class: Magic Gunner} {Skill: Infinite Ammo, Gun creator (Desert Eagle, MP5, AA-12), Sleep bullet, Poison shot} Maron was ecstatic, he was jumping all over the room, he even had his Desert Eagle out, he wanted to test his poison shot so bad, he even thought of going to the jungle right now, but he was rational and decided not to, afterwards he saw the ¡®Repel¡¯ book, and pondered to himself ¡®Eh? Why not?¡¯, as he grabbed the book right after, and started browsing through its pages, he was again engrossed in reading the book, that it was almost dawn, when he finished, still he was able to learn it, a flash of white light enveloped his body, but instead of jumping around he went straight to his bed and laid down, he was exhausted and tired from reading the book, he didn¡¯t have the strength to see his stats, he quietly laid there with his eyes closed, and started to sleep. Maron was awakened by the sound of someone knocking on the door, he raised his voice and said ¡°Who is it?¡±, ¡°It¡¯s me, Wuglat¡± the person said, Maron got up from his bed and opened the door, still squinting he opened the door and said ¡°What¡¯s up Wuglat¡±, in which Wuglat replied with ¡°Can we talk downstairs? I have something to tell you¡±. ¡°Yeah, sure, let me just wash my face and I''ll be right there¡± Maron responded, and quickly went to the bathroom to wash his face, afterwards he went downstairs, he saw Wuglat sitting on a table by the window. ¡°Hey, good morning¡± Maron greeted as he sat across from Wuglat, ¡°Morning¡± he replied. ¡°So, what did you want to talk about?¡± Maron said, after a little while Wuglat took out a book, two [middle identification stone] and 2 [middle mana stone].Unauthorized content usage: if you discover this narrative on Amazon, report the violation. ¡°What¡¯s this!? How did you get this? What book is that?¡± Maron asked continuously surprised at the things in Wuglat''s hand. ¡°This is the ¡®Hand of God¡¯ that you threw to me, I forgot to give it to Lakian, and these stones I pocketed it, I don¡¯t know if what I did was right, but there were a lot of it on that drawer, so I kept two of it.¡± Wuglat said guiltily. ¡°That¡¯s alright, we would¡¯ve gotten them anyway, don¡¯t think too much about it, there¡¯s nothing to be guilty about.¡± Maron replied which lighten the mood of Wuglat. ¡°Let¡¯s just eat¡± Wuglat said. ¡°Yeah, but what about Sakura? Have you seen her left her room?¡± Maron responded, ¡°You go order our food, I''ll check up on Sakura¡± Maron said, and went upstairs right after, he went in front of Sakura¡¯s room and knocked. ¡°Sakura, you up? It''s me, Maron¡± he said to the door, afterwards a pretty girl opened it from inside, she was wearing her sleeping gown, and her hair was messy, but still she was beautiful as fuck, Maron felt his heartbeat louder. ¡°Uhm, you ok? There''s breakfast downstairs, I was just wondering if you wanted to join us¡± Maron said worriedly, which she replied with ¡°Okay, I''ll just wash my face¡± and immediately closed the door, but before she could close it, Maron stopped it and said ¡°I know it¡¯s hard for you, shit happens, but life goes on, you¡¯ll get through this, it¡¯ll be hard, but you¡¯ll get through this¡±, which she replied with ¡°Thank you¡± and slowly closed the door. Maron didn¡¯t ever think that he could say those words in his entire life, he felt like a different person, he went downstairs pondering how in the world he said those words, he wasn¡¯t the emotional type, he had never given advice to anyone before, so he was shocked at the words he said. ¡°What happened?¡± asked Wuglat to him. ¡°She said she was coming¡± Maron replied nonchalantly, afterwards Sakura came downstairs, with her hair tied, she wore a violet dress, with her robe on top, Maron was stunned seeing her, Wuglat wave his hands to her, and she went to them after, Sakura sat beside Maron and said ¡°Thank you for earlier, I¡¯m okay now¡±. ¡°No problem¡± Maron replied. ¡°What are your plans now?¡± Wuglat asked Sakura. ¡°I don¡¯t know, can I stay with you guys?¡± Sakura answered not knowing where to go, or what to do, which Maron quickly replied with ¡°Yeah, of course, actually that¡¯d be great, you can even join our guild, if you want¡±. ¡°Thank you¡± Sakura said, afterwards Aunt Snak came by and handed them their food, they started eating their breakfast. ¡°We can go to the guild after, I''m sure Dianne would be surprised if she found out you¡¯ll join the guild, with your level I think she¡¯d pass out¡± Maron said after shoving a potato in his mouth, everyone was eating happily, suddenly Sakura said ¡°What about the others? You think they''re okay?¡±, talking about their companions from Earth, Sakura always wanted to meet people from Earth, that¡¯s why when she thinks there is even small chance, that someone¡¯s from earth, she would immediately ask Lakian to talk to them, that¡¯s the reason Lakian went to them. ¡°Nah, you don¡¯t need to worry about them, they probably have some overpowered item, we¡¯ll eventually meet them, look at me, you met me, besides you said that you were here for months, right? While I¡¯ve only been here for a week, maybe the others aren¡¯t here yet, or they¡¯re just not in this kingdom¡± Maron explained. ¡°Yeah, you¡¯re right¡± Sakura said. ¡°What we need to think about is, why are we here? The old man said we¡¯re here for an experiment, what kind of experiment?¡± Maron said, suddenly everything he said was of serious matter, Sakura didn¡¯t know how to respond, the atmosphere in the table turned serious. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, we¡¯ll eventually know, we just need to get stronger, we¡¯ll probably kill some monster that can destroy this world¡± Maron said as he sips on his juice, he was just guessing though, he has been thinking about this every day, he didn¡¯t tell this to Wuglat because he wouldn¡¯t understand, but now that Sakura¡¯s here, he can tell her everything he thinks, because they¡¯re both from Earth. Chapter 16 The three had finished their meal and said their goodbyes to Aunt Snak, afterwards the group walked to the Lowlaws guild, after a while they finally reached the guild, the Lowlaws was the same as usual, people coming and going, adventurers talking about strategies and monsters, after coming inside, the group went straight to where Dianne was. ¡°Hey babe¡± Maron greeted. ¡°You didn¡¯t drop by yesterday, where were you?¡± Dianne asked without greeting him back. ¡°Woah, I thought you didn¡¯t like me, looks like someone missed me¡± Maron teased. ¡°If you don¡¯t want to answer, then get the hell out of my face¡± Dianne replied annoyingly, as she turned and was going to talk to another adventurer. ¡°Wait, I was with Wuglat, uh, we studied some Magic books¡± Maron answered, thinking of any excuse he can to hide the fact that they raided a dungeon with the Peculiars, Dianne now turned back to them and asked ¡°What kind of Magic books?¡± ¡°Wuglat, show her¡± Maron said as he signaled Wuglat to show her the ¡®Hand of God¡¯ book, in which Wuglat unwillingly gave to Dianne, Dianne received the book and shined a white stone on it, afterwards figures started appearing in the air, [Hand of God- a type of greater healing magic, this skill purifies the person it is casted on, wounds will rapidly heal, 100 mana will be replenished, poison stats will be removed. Requirements: 100 intelligence, 100 wisdom] ¡°What kind of stone is that!?¡± Maron asked shockingly. ¡°It¡¯s an [inspection stone], why?¡± Dianne nonchalantly replied. ¡°What!? I didn¡¯t know there¡¯s a stone like that¡± Maron was appalled that there was that kind of stone. ¡°What do you want!? If you¡¯re just going to waste my time, go away, there¡¯s a lot of adventurers that I need to attend to¡± Dianne responded, she was irritated of Maron again, she didn¡¯t need to explain everything to him, this girl was moody as fuck. Maron decided to stop fucking around and said what they came here for. ¡°This girl wants to register to the guild¡± Maron said as he pointed to Sakura, in which Sakura waved to Dianne, Dianne looked at her up and down, Sakura¡¯s facial feature was different from the girls here, her eyes was a little squinted, she had an Asian face, so Dianne was eyeing her, but afterwards she pulled out a book with names on it. ¡°Okay, tell me your name and level, pay the fee of 5 coppers, and you¡¯re good to go¡± Dianne said, which Sakura replied with ¡°My name is Sakura, I''m level 40, and here¡¯s 1 silver¡±, Dianne started writing on the book and whispering after Sakura, ¡°Sakura, level 4-, what did you say your level was?¡± Dianne asked. ¡°Level 40¡± Sakura raised her voice. ¡°Good, I thought you said Level 4-, WHAT!?¡± Dianne shouted, she was shocked at Sakura, she took out a [low identification stone] and let Sakura grasp it, after seeing that she was really Level 40, she was wide-eyed, everyone in the guild is now looking at their direction. The three quickly ran and left the guild after registering, Sakura didn¡¯t even receive her change, but the three decided to leave immediately, cause every adventurer there was starting to surround Sakura, with how the gossip works in this city, everyone will now know that Sakura is Level 40. ¡°That was fun¡± Maron said panting hard, they ran far away from the adventurers chasing Sakura, they are now in a field outside of the city, Sakura was laughing hard, she now knows why the Peculiars don¡¯t go around telling anyone their levels. ¡°Since we don¡¯t have anything to do, why don¡¯t I teach you guys magic?¡± Sakura suddenly said. ¡°Sure, that¡¯d be great¡± ¡°Okay¡±If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation. ¡°Well, let¡¯s see your stats first¡± Sakura said, ¡°Do you guys have any [identification stone]?¡± Sakura asked which the two replied with ¡°We do¡± and took out their [middle identification stone]. Wuglat grasped his first and his stats showed. {Name: Wuglat} {Mana: 50/50} {Level: 8} {Class: Fighter} {Race: Orc} {Skill: Axe throw (level 8), boomerang (Level 2) (30 mana), Flame axe (Level 2) (10 mana)} {Strength: 50} {Intelligence: 15} {Wisdom: 15} {Dexterity: 40} {Agility: 20} {Equipment: Fire and Wind axe (+10 strength)} ¡°Wow, you¡¯re Level 8 now, my turn¡± Maron said, afterwards Maron grasped his stone and figures started appearing in front of him. {Name: Maron} {Mana: 300/300} {Level: 20} {Class: Magic Gunner} {Race: High-human} {Skill: Infinite Ammo, Gun creator (Desert Eagle, MP5, AA-12, M4A1, XM2010), sleep bullet (level 1), poison shot (level 1), Repulsion bullet (level 1)} {Strength: 35} {Intelligence: 40} {Wisdom: 38} {Dexterity: 30} {Agility: 50} {Equipment:} Everyone was shocked at his progress even himself, Maron already knew he was level 20, however what surprised him was his intelligence, he now has the qualifications to learn the fireball of Sakura, also he has new guns, he now realized that there was a pattern for this, every 5 levels he would get a stronger gun, he didn¡¯t know what an XM2010 is though, so he shouted it ¡°XM2010¡±, afterwards a big sniper fell down on his arms, it was huge, longer than his torso, he staggered a bit, before finding his balance. This gun was not supposed to be carried while shooting, it needs to be planted on the ground with its stand. This sniper was a beast, beautiful, majestic for Maron, he was awed at how amazing this sniper rifle was, he caressed it like it was his child, he couldn¡¯t wait to try it out. ¡°What¡¯s that ¡®Repulsion bullet¡¯¡± Sakura suddenly asked. ¡°It was from a ¡°Repel¡± magic book that I learned yesterday, the book said that it will put you in a barrier, and you¡¯ll be immune to Magic attacks¡± Maron explained. ¡°Okay, it looks like I can only teach Maron¡± Sakura suddenly said, ¡°I¡¯m sorry Wuglat, my fireball needs at least 20 intelligence and wisdom¡± she followed. ¡°It¡¯s okay¡± Wuglat disappointedly said. ¡°Sakura, do you have one of those [inspection stone]?¡± Maron said, in which Sakura replied ¡°Yeah, why?¡± ¡°I have two magic books called ¡®Poison shot¡¯ and ¡®Repel, maybe Wuglat can learn it¡± Maron responded, he quickly ran back to the inn and grabbed the magic books, and came back as fast as he can, afterwards he gave the books to Sakura for inspection, she received the books and took out a stone from her magic pouch, and quickly used it on the books. [Poison shot- a type of great attack magic, this skill puts a potent poison to whom it is casted on, the affected will experience hallucinations, would lose his/her sense of direction. Requirements: 15 intelligence, 14 wisdom] [Repel- a type of defense magic, it would create a barrier that can absorb any type of magic attacks, it can last for minutes or when it reaches the maximum magic damage, depends on the level Requirement: 40 intelligence, 35 wisdom] Wuglat¡¯s gloomy face turned to a smile when he saw that the stats'' requirement for the poison shot was 15 intelligence and 14 wisdom, he would be able to learn it, he took the magic book from Sakura and started to browse it, afterwards he went under a tree and immersed himself in the book. The other two started their own study session, Maron has never seen Sakura¡¯s fireball, he heard it when she cast it on Medusa, but his eyes were closed at that time, so he asked Sakura to demonstrate. ¡°Fireball¡± Sakura shouted and pointed her wand at a nearby boulder, afterwards a ball of fire hit the boulder, and exploded, the boulder got disintegrated, Maron was surprised at how strong the fireball is. Maron is now intrigued by Sakura¡¯s spells, he asked her to show him all her spells, in which Sakura complied. ¡°Freeze¡±, ¡°Lightning Flash¡±, ¡°Rock Wall¡±, ¡°Ignite¡±, every spell that Sakura casts would make Maron horrified all over, if he gets hit with one of her spells, he would certainly come out scathed. ¡°Now that you¡¯ve seen my spells, let¡¯s start¡± Sakura said as she grabbed a book from her magic pouch, afterwards gave it to Maron, Maron laid down under a shade and started reading the book, ¡°If you can¡¯t comprehend something, don¡¯t be afraid to ask me¡± Sakura said as she sat down beside Maron, and started opening a magic book, it was the ¡®Hand of God¡¯ book of Wuglat, with the help of her wand, she reached the requirement for the spell, afterwards she too was learning another spell, the trio¡¯s morning passed by just like that. Chapter 17 It was already noon, newbie adventurers would pass by a group, under the shade of a tree each reading a book. The adventurers were wondering why the three were reading books outside the gate, could it be that these guys are strong enough to beat any monsters that would approach them, everyone had their assumptions about the trio, however it didn¡¯t really matter to them that much, so they would go on their way, and immediately forget that they saw a group outside the gates. The first to close its book was Sakura, whereupon she was enveloped with a flash of yellow light that dissipated right after. She had learned the ¡®Hand of God¡¯, thanks to her high intelligence and skills, she was the first to finish, not that there was any competition, but being first made her feel good, she was smiling widely. The next to close its book is Maron, he too was enveloped in a red light that dissipated quickly, afterwards he stood up and raised his hands to stretch, he was groaning like an old man, the long duration of sitting made his back all sore, however he was satisfied of the outcome, he had learned a new skill, as he looked to his side, he saw Sakura smiling like crazy while staring at him, he couldn¡¯t help but smile back awkwardly, he didn¡¯t understand the reason for her smile, so he didn¡¯t give it any mind. Instead, he took out his [middle identification stone] and grasped it. {Name: Maron} {Mana: 300/300} {Level: 20} {Class: Magic Gunner} {Race: High-human} {Skill: Infinite Ammo, Gun creator (Desert Eagle, MP5, AA-12, M4A1, XM2010), sleep bullet (level 1), poison shot (level 1), Repulsion bullet (level 1), Exploding shot (level 1)} {Strength: 35} {Intelligence: 40} {Wisdom: 38} {Dexterity: 30} {Agility: 50} {Defense (P): 30} {Defense (M):30} {Equipment: none} The last to close its book was Wuglat, however it didn¡¯t seem like he was last, he was beaming with a smile, and jumping around, he was ecstatic, he was happier than the two, afterwards he quickly took out his [middle identification stone] and grasped it. {Name: Wuglat} {Mana: 50/50} {Level: 8} {Class: Fighter} {Race: Orc} {Skill: Axe throw (level 8), boomerang (Level 2) (30 mana), Flame axe (Level 2) (10 mana), Poison slash (level 1) (10 mana)} {Strength: 50} {Intelligence: 15} {Wisdom: 15} {Dexterity: 40} {Agility: 20} {Equipment: Fire and Wind axe (+10 strength)} The trio are now preparing to leave, when suddenly a beastkin halted them, it was Bruno of the ¡®Cunningthorn¡¯, he stood in front of Sakura and asked with a polite tone ¡°Are you Sakura?¡±. ¡°Yes, why?¡± Sakura replied not aware of what¡¯s happening, Sakura had never met him before, so she wondered why he suddenly talked to her. ¡°My name is Bruno, I''m from the guild ¡®Cunningthorn¡¯¡± Bruno introduced himself and bowed slightly, he was well-mannered while talking to Sakura, ¡°I heard you joined the ¡®Lowlaws¡¯ guild, Miss Sakura, however with your level, I don¡¯t think that guild would be of much help to you, in fact I came here to invite you to ¡®Cunningthorn¡¯¡±. Sakura didn¡¯t know how to respond, she was suddenly offered to join another guild, she was too polite, that she couldn¡¯t straight away reject Bruno, she didn¡¯t want to hurt his feelings, even though she didn¡¯t really want to join them, so she looked over to Maron as if begging for his help, whereupon Maron quickly understood what Sakura¡¯s stare meant. ¡°I don¡¯t think Sakura wants to join your guild¡± Maron quickly interjected and shoved his body between the two. ¡°Who might you be? To make decisions for her¡± Bruno scorned, his tone to Maron was different from Sakura. ¡°I¡¯m her fri-¡± Maron almost said, when suddenly Sakura interrupted him and said ¡°He¡¯s my husband¡±, Maron and Wuglat was surprised at what Sakura said, Maron quickly supported what Sakura said. ¡°That¡¯s right, I''m her husband¡± Maron boldly said, ¡°Let¡¯s go wife¡± he followed, afterwards held Sakura¡¯s hand, and quickly left right after. Bruno was shocked, the sudden turn of events made him unable to respond, he couldn¡¯t believe that the two are married, however it was Sakura that said it first, so he didn¡¯t know what to do, he was left there hanging with his mouth open. After leaving, the three are now on the road, it was already lunchtime, so they decided to go back to the inn, and grab something to eat there, after a while they reached the Odd Chair, but before coming inside they were stopped by a girl, another adventurer from ¡®Cunningthorn¡¯, she was wearing a skin tight light- blue robe, that match her hair, there was a diamond cut in the middle of her robe that showed her abundant cleavage, and also a slit on her robes that showed her beautiful right thigh, she was sexy. ¡°Are you Sakura?¡± Aqua immediately asked after seeing the three of them, ¡°Hi, my name is Aqua, I¡¯m going to get straight to the point, I want you to leave Lowlaws and join our guild¡± she firmly said, it looks like Cunningthorn is really determined to invite Sakura to their guild. ¡°Yes, why?¡± Sakura couldn¡¯t help but ask.If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation. ¡°You guys are so persistent on inviting Sakura, it¡¯s strange, is there any reason for it?¡± Maron suddenly said, looks like he understood something, out of all the guilds in Cilon Empire, only the Cunningthorn is persistent on inviting Sakura. ¡°And who might you be?¡± Aqua asked softly, curious about the identity of Maron. ¡°I¡¯m Maron, her husband¡± Maron confidently said, which made Sakura blush a bit, he was clearly taking advantage of the husband thing. ¡°Oh! I didn¡¯t know she was already married¡± Aqua shockingly said, putting her palm over her mouth. ¡°I can tell you, however we need to be somewhere private¡± ¡°Okay¡± the three simultaneously said, ¡°We can go inside, we can use my room upstairs¡± Sakura said, suggesting her own room. ¡°Sure, but I can only tell it to you, Sakura¡± Aqua replied agreeing to her suggestion, but adding a condition. ¡°No, if you can¡¯t let them hear it, then I don¡¯t need to talk to you¡± Sakura firmly responded, she was determined to let Maron and Wuglat be in on this. Aqua had no choice, seeing how resolute Sakura looks, in the end she could only accept, she badly needed Sakura, ¡°Alright¡± she said, afterwards the four of them went inside the inn, and went upstairs to Sakura¡¯s room, Sakura¡¯s room looks exactly the same as Maron¡¯s, the only difference is the smell of the room, Maron¡¯s room smells like wood and sweat, while Sakura¡¯s room is fragrant and clean. The room was cramped with four people inside, but it didn¡¯t stop the group to continue their talk, everyone has their own place, Wuglat was standing by the door, Maron sitting on a chair beside the bed facing the two girls, and the two girls sat on the bed, afterwards Aqua start talking. ¡°A day ago, Bruno got hold of information about a certain competition that will be held here in Cilon Empire¡± Aqua said. ¡°Okay, so? There will be a competition, what¡¯s the big deal?¡± Maron interrupted. ¡°The big deal is the winner of the competition gets to study at Courian¡± Aqua replied and expected a shocked reaction from them, however the only person who got surprised was Wuglat, the other two didn¡¯t even flinch, which was strange for Aqua, every adventurer that she knows would give anything just to study at Courian. ¡°Okay, I thought that you¡¯re going to tell us was something that would endanger the whole kingdom, but you made this a big deal just for some competition¡± Maron responded with a frown, he really thought something big was going to happen, they even went somewhere private, but it was just for a competition, he felt annoyed. ¡°Wha-, just a competition?¡± Aqua replied shockingly, she was appalled at Maron¡¯s reaction, adventurers would do anything just to study at Courian, but Maron didn¡¯t even give a shit about Courian.¡°You! You! What are you?¡± Aqua raised her voice, she couldn¡¯t understand why the two wouldn¡¯t be willing to study at Courian. ¡°I¡¯m sorry miss Aqua, but if that competition was the only thing you were going to tell us, I''m going to have to decline your invitation.¡± Sakura politely said, she too didn¡¯t need to study at Courian, adventurers here would want to study there, but not her, she was fine with living normally. ¡°Okay, it looks like I took the wrong attitude on this¡± Aqua said now realizing that the people she¡¯s talking with, don¡¯t care about studying at Courian, ¡°As a fellow adventurer, I would like to invite you Sakura to our team, not our guild, just our team that will join the competition, please¡± Aqua sincerely said. ¡°Okay, since you asked sincerely if you include Maron and Wuglat to the team, I''ll certainly join¡± Sakura politely agreed, however she had a condition. ¡°I would¡¯ve accepted your conditions if it weren¡¯t for the requirements to join the tournament, one need to be at least Level 20 to join¡± Aqua said feeling bad for the two, she didn¡¯t know that Maron was already Level 20. ¡°Well, Maron is Level 20, so he is qualified to join the tournament, however Wuglat...¡± Sakura said feeling bad for Wuglat, however she couldn¡¯t do anything. ¡°It¡¯s okay Sakura¡± Wuglat said, he didn¡¯t want the two to feel bad for him ¡°I will just cheer you on, besides even if I joined, I would surely be defeated¡± Wuglat knew that he was weak, but this didn¡¯t break him, instead he promised his self that he would work harder to get on their level. ¡°Are you really Level 20?¡± Aqua said, she couldn¡¯t believe that this man in front of her was really Level 20, ¡°What is your class?¡± she asked intrigued about Maron. ¡°I¡¯m a gunner¡± Maron replied, not hiding it anymore, he realized that there was really no point in hiding it anymore, if he joined this competition, he would for sure use his gun. ¡°Gunner? What¡¯s that?¡± Aqua asked curiously. ¡°You could say that it¡¯s a modified version of the archer class¡± Maron explained, he didn¡¯t really know how to put it either, so he just said what he thinks it is. Aqua still didn¡¯t get it, but she didn¡¯t pry into it any longer, because she already asked them for a favor, so asking more would make her feel like a busybody, and she didn¡¯t want that, so she dropped it. ¡°So, when will this competition be held?¡± Maron asked. ¡°I don¡¯t know either, we were already so lucky just for learning about it, so the date, I will just tell you if I find out.¡± Sakura responded. The meeting in Sakura¡¯s room came to an end, Aqua said her goodbyes to the three, and the group also said their goodbyes, afterwards the group went downstairs to grab some lunch, the three sat together and ordered food from Aunt Snak, and they enjoyed their lunch right after. Chapter 18 After eating lunch, the group decided to take a rest, they all went to their own rooms, except Maron. He instead went outside, he didn¡¯t have the chance to test his new skills earlier, so he decided to go hunting alone. Maron went outside the kingdom to find monsters that he could test his skills to. ¡°Now, where should I go?¡± Maron wondered, he was now outside the kingdom, however he didn¡¯t know where to find monsters, so he just went deeper in to the forest, hoping to encounter some monsters, after a little while he found some blood marks on his path, the shape of the blood indicated that it was probably a small animal, the blood was also still fresh, so whoever did it must still be nearby. Maron was on his guard right after, he surveyed the surroundings for some monsters and found a troll, the troll was eating a rabbit, the blood marks from earlier must have come from it, when suddenly the troll looked at his direction, thankfully his reflexes was fast enough, before he could be seen by it, he had already hid himself behind a tree. Maron stood still behind the tree, his instincts moved him involuntarily, he was scared for a moment, but after pondering a little, he realized that there was no reason to hide. He was there to test his new skills, so why was he hiding, he took out his desert eagle and confidently revealed himself to the troll. The troll¡¯s eyes were bloodshot, its mouth was covered in blood, its teeth were sharp, it tears the rabbit skin with ease, it was huge too, about 8 feet (2.44 m) tall. Maron now understood why he hid earlier, because it was terrifying, however he was now prepared, he suppressed his fear. ¡°Hi, I''m going to test my skills on you ¡± Maron said, explaining himself to the troll, he knew that it wouldn¡¯t understand, but still Maron felt bad shooting someone out of the blue, afterwards he aimed his Desert Eagle, and cast exploding bullet. The troll was hit right in the face, however the Desert Eagle¡¯s bullet couldn¡¯t penetrate the trolls skin, it just staggered back, the troll¡¯s regeneration ability also helped reduce the damage from the pistol, the skill wasn¡¯t enough to kill it, but it was alright, in fact it was better, it means Maron could test all of his skills at it. Its face now showed an enraged expression rushed to Maron, it was fast, Maron didn¡¯t expect it to be that fast, it almost caught him, but thankfully he jumped backwards and dodged the claws of the troll. Maron ran away from the rushing troll, casting ¡®exploding bullet¡¯ and aiming at the troll¡¯s face, it slowed it down a bit, however that moment of delay was enough for him to widen the distance. Maron now out of range from the troll, started casting ¡®Poison bullet¡¯, the bullet didn¡¯t penetrate the skin, but the skin that was hit by it did not show signs of healing, the troll was slowly gaining on him, so he used the same tactic as before and widen their distance once again, after the ¡®Poison bullets¡¯ Maron now tested the ¡®Sleep bullets¡¯, but with the enraged status of the troll, it was ineffective. Maron was now satisfied with his skill testing session, he decided to finish it, he took out his M4A1, aimed it on the troll and pulled the trigger, the troll¡¯s thick skin didn¡¯t have a chance at the rifle, the bullets penetrated straight through its body, the troll was filled with holes in seconds, and fell down right after. ¡®Ding¡¯ Level up. ¡®Ding¡¯ Level up. Maron was shocked at the sudden announcement in his head, he didn¡¯t expect that he would level up by killing a troll, but he didn¡¯t give much thought about it, afterwards he approached the body of the troll and cut its ears, hoping that he could exchange it for coins just like the goblins. Maron with the successful testing of his new skills decided to go back to the kingdom, to the Lowlaws, to be precise, he was going to check up on Dianne, since he didn¡¯t have that much to do anyway. Maron walked for a while and finally reached the Lowlaws, the atmosphere there changed, there seem to be more adventurers coming and going, the guild was packed, but still Maron didn¡¯t care that much at all, instead, he walked straight to Dianne¡¯s desk as usual. ¡°Hey babe¡± Maron greeted. ¡°What¡¯s happening here? There seem to be a lot of adventurers than normal.¡±A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation. ¡°Well, ever since they found out that Sakura was Level 40, adventurers started joining the guild, not only newbies, but also those that are experienced adventurers without a guild.¡± Dianne said, delighted at the rise in popularity of the ¡®Lowlaws¡¯. ¡°So, what did you came here for?¡± she said smiling, showing clearly that she was in a good mood. ¡°Uh, I came to exchange this troll ears¡± Maron replied as he grabbed a pouch and dropped it on Dianne¡¯s desk. ¡°What!?¡± Dianne was shocked after inspecting the content of the pouch. ¡°H-How did you get this?¡± she asked. ¡°By killing a troll, how else do you think you could get a troll¡¯s ears?¡± Maron said a little annoyed, he was tired of her obvious question. ¡°Kill a troll? A troll is a Level 30 monster, adventurers would team up just to kill one, but you a level 10 could kill a troll¡± Dianne explained, she couldn¡¯t believe that Maron could kill a troll alone, looking at him, there isn¡¯t even a single bruise on him, however with his confident attitude, it didn¡¯t seem like he was lying. ¡°So that¡¯s why I leveled twice¡± Maron said, now realizing the reason for his level up. ¡°I killed a troll alone, deal with it, besides I¡¯ve leveled up you know, I''m already Level 20 when I killed it¡± Dianne was shocked that he was already Level 20, the last time they met he was only Level 20, which was just days ago, she couldn¡¯t believe how fast he was leveling. ¡°Okay, this troll ears are a bit too much for our guild, however this thing is requested by a lot of alchemists, so you could sell it to them.¡± Sakura said, the guild did have money to pay for the troll ears, but if Maron sold it to an alchemist, he would get a lot more than what Lowlaws would pay for. ¡°Okay, do you know any alchemist?¡± Maron agreed. ¡°Yeah, I¡¯ll write a map for you¡± Sakura said as she grabbed a piece of paper and started drawing on it. ¡°Thank you¡± Maron said after receiving the paper, ¡°I¡¯ll see you later then¡± he said his goodbye, and then walked to the door, he studied the map a bit and started walking on the road right after. A few minutes later, Maron reached an age-old house, he glanced at the map thinking that he made a wrong turn somewhere, he retraced his steps couple times, but ended up in the same house. ¡®Did Dianne write wrong?¡¯ he thought, when suddenly a man with glasses came running out of the house. ¡°Get down!¡± the man shouted, afterwards a loud ¡®boom¡¯ could be heard inside the house, and black smoke came out the doors and windows of the house. ¡°Whoo, that was close¡± said the man in glasses while wiping sweat on his forehead, as if the explosion was just a trifling matter. Maron looked at the guy unintentionally and didn¡¯t realize that he was already staring. ¡°Uhm. Can I help you?¡± glasses guy asked curiously. ¡°Yeah, do you perhaps know a place called ¡®Potion Chicken¡¯?¡± Maron asked, since there was no reason in declining his help. ¡°That¡¯s the ¡®Potion Chicken¡¯¡± glasses guy replied and pointed at the old house, ¡°and I''m the owner¡± Chapter 19 Maron was surprised a bit, well he didn¡¯t really care much, he was just going to sell his troll¡¯s ears to him anyway. ¡°I¡¯m Maron¡± he greeted casually, and offered a handshake. ¡°I¡¯m Julius¡± he replied, and grabbed his hand. ¡°I¡¯m here to sell you this troll¡¯s ears¡± Maron said as he handed Julius a small pouch. ¡°How did you get this!?¡± Julius asked incredulously, ¡°Never mind, come with me inside, I''ll pay you there¡±. ¡°Uhm, no. After seeing that explosion, I don¡¯t think I want to come near that house¡± Maron declined. ¡°Okay, wait for me outside then.¡± Julius said nonchalantly, and went inside his shop, afterwards he came back with a pouch of coins. ¡°Here¡± Julius handed the pouch of coins, which Maron received happily. ¡°If you get any more of these, I''ll buy it¡± ¡°Yeah, sure¡± Maron casually replied. ¡°What do you need this for?¡± he asked, intrigued on what Julius is making to need troll¡¯s ears. ¡°I¡¯m just saying, if you need more, I might help you gather some¡± ¡°I¡¯m going to make a new potion, that could help get a new skill¡± Julius said, it was no secret so there was no need to hide what he planned on doing. ¡°A skill? You can do that?¡± Maron asked. Now showing that he was clearly interested. ¡°Yeah, it¡¯s called Troll¡¯s skin, so tell the person whoever got you these ears, that if they have more, they can sell it to me.¡± Julius said, he thought that Maron was just an errand boy from a stronger adventurer. ¡°I¡¯m the one that gathered that ears, I killed a troll by myself¡± Maron said confidently, did he really look that weak, why does everyone think that he can¡¯t kill a troll. ¡°Okay¡± Julius mocked. ¡°What? You don¡¯t believe me?¡± Maron said while frowning, however Julius was still just smirking, ¡°Wait for me¡± he said and immediately left, he was annoyed at Julius, he didn¡¯t know why, but seeing his smug face, he wanted to prove him wrong, so he quickly went outside the gate to find some troll. Maron even used the teleportation chamber to go to ¡®Dilbo jungle¡¯, thinking that there may be more trolls there, afterwards he took out his M4A1 and went deep inside the forest, after a little while of looking he found a group of trolls, he doesn¡¯t stand a chance if he fights them head-on, so he decided to use his XM2010, he went to nearby boulder and placed his sniper rifle on it. Everything was ready, he looked through the scope and aimed the gun to a troll¡¯s head, he exhaled deep and afterwards pulled the trigger while using Poison bullet, the troll dropped lifeless, the other trolls were alarmed by the sudden fall of their comrade, one by one they were dropping like flies, but they didn¡¯t know what was happening, the trolls died with no clue how they died or who killed them. Afterwards Maron went to their corpse and cut their ears, there was a total of 8 trolls there, but he killed them easily.Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. Maron got back to the kingdom right after, he went straight to the ¡®Potion Chicken¡¯ and knocked on its door, which Julius opened. ¡°Oh, you¡¯re back, you killed a troll?¡± Julius smirked, he still didn¡¯t believe that he could kill a troll that fast, and come back without any injuries, when all of a sudden Maron took out a pouch, and handed it to him. ¡°Here, in fact it¡¯s not just one troll, it¡¯s eight trolls¡± Maron said confidently, ¡°Since I¡¯m the one that gathered those, I want to have some potion you¡¯re making¡±. Maron demanded, actually that was the reason he hunted trolls, to get the ¡®Troll¡¯s skin¡¯ skill that Julius will make, he is always interested in gaining new skills, no matter whatever it is. ¡°Eight!? How?¡± Julius was flabbergasted, earlier he didn¡¯t believe that this weak looking kid was serious, however after coming back with eight troll¡¯s ears, and looking at his smug face, he started to believe that Maron is really strong. ¡°Doesn¡¯t matter how, just deliver three potions to the ¡®Odd Chair¡¯ after it¡¯s finished, I¡¯m staying there¡± Maron casually said and then left right after. It was already almost night when he came back to the inn, he went straight to his room to get some rest. Maron was tired, he had been running all over the place all day, after coming in his room, he jumped straight to his bed, and just laid there staring at the ceiling, afterwards he grasped his [middle identification stone] to check his stats. {Name: Maron} {Mana: 400/400} {Level: 27} {Class: Magic Gunner} {Race: High-human} {Skill: Infinite Ammo, Gun creator (Desert Eagle, MP5, AA-12, M4A1, XM2010), sleep bullet (level 2), poison shot (level 5), Repulsion bullet (level 1), Exploding shot (level 5)} {Strength: 45} {Intelligence: 55} {Wisdom: 46} {Dexterity: 40} {Agility: 65} {Defense (P): 50} {Defense (M):50} {Equipment:} He was already Level 27, he didn¡¯t realize that he had leveled up after killing those trolls, not only that, his stats had also increased by a lot. Maron felt delighted at his growth, his skills don¡¯t cost mana either, he didn¡¯t understand the reason for it, but maybe it¡¯s because of his Infinite ammo skill, perhaps it negates the mana consumption of the bullets, and he got past the level 25, so that means he would get another gun tomorrow, he couldn¡¯t wait to see his new gun. Maron was already dozing off to sleep, when suddenly he heard a knock on his door, his eyes opened abruptly, he got annoyed a little, but quickly got out of bed and opened the door to see who was knocking, it was Sakura. ¡°Hey, what¡¯s up?¡± Maron greeted, his irritation suddenly turned delight. ¡°We were going to eat dinner, I was just wondering if you wanted to eat with us¡± Sakura said softly, that was her normal voice, but to Maron it sounded super cute, she didn¡¯t even have to try. ¡°Yeah, sure¡± Maron eagerly agreed, afterwards the two went downstairs to eat dinner, when they came downstairs, Wuglat was already on a table signaling them to come over. They ordered some food and chatted about their day. Maron told them about his skill testing and the trolls he killed, which shocked Wuglat, he explained everything to them, from the beginning, afterwards the two slowly understood what happened. Their faces were like a kid listening to stories while listening to Maron. ¡°When will you get this potion?¡± Sakura asked. ¡°I don¡¯t know, I only told him to drop it here at the inn after it¡¯s finished¡± Maron replied. ¡°I told him to give me three potions, so you two can have the troll¡¯s skin too, I think it¡¯s going to be a really helpful skill, because I personally found out how strong a troll¡¯s skin is, my Desert Eagle couldn¡¯t even penetrate it.¡± Maron explained, the more he thinks about it the more he gets amazed at how strong a troll¡¯s skin is. The three finished their dinner, afterwards they went to their own rooms. Maron said his goodbyes before coming inside his room and then his long day slowly came to an end. Chapter 20 ¡°I¡¯m coming, I''m coming¡± Maron grumbled, as he walked to the door. He was woken up by the loud knocking, he opened the door to see Julius face. ¡°Julius, what are you doing here?¡± ¡°I¡¯m here to deliver this to you¡± Julius said and then handed him a pouch. ¡°Also, since I''m here I would like to ask you for a favor¡± Maron grabbed the pouch and was thinking twice to slam the door on Julius face, but decided to hear him out. ¡°What kind of favor?¡± ¡°I know we¡¯ve only met recently, and I might¡¯ve made a wrong first impression for you, and I want to say sorry for that, but trust me I am a sociable guy, it¡¯s just that you didn¡¯t really look that strong at first glance, and I didn¡¯t mean to hurt your feelings or whatever.¡± Julius explained. ¡°But will you hunt something for me?¡± Julius asked looking serious. ¡°Don¡¯t worry about it¡± Maron said. ¡°Also hunt? What do you want me to hunt?¡± Maron asked curiously, not that he was going to agree, but he just wanted to know. ¡°An eagle¡± Julius replied. ¡°I have a recipe for a potion in a while, however I can¡¯t gather the ingredients for it, so I came here to ask you for help¡± "Come inside, it¡¯s weird talking by the door¡± Maron said. He was planning to slam the door on him earlier, but seeing his sincere apology, he seemed like a really nice guy, maybe he just really made a wrong first impression on Maron. The two entered Maron¡¯s room, it was awkward for them at first, because there was no place to sit, so they were both standing facing each other. ¡°What about this eagle?¡± Maron started. ¡°It seems to me that it¡¯ll be one hell of a monster¡± ¡°Yeah, it is, but seeing as you killed a lot of trolls alone, I think you¡¯d be able to do it¡± Julius said. ¡°This eagle is called ¡®King Bird¡¯, it¡¯s a level 45 monster, with a wingspan of 15 feet, it¡¯s unequaled in the sky. It''s one of the top predators in this continent¡± he explained further. Hearing about his description of the eagle made Maron lose confidence a bit. How did he think that he could kill an eagle from killing a troll? ¡°I don¡¯t think a troll is comparable to a king bird¡± Maron teased. ¡°Besides what¡¯s in it for me if I help you?¡± ¡°I¡¯ll be able to concoct a new potion, it¡¯s called ¡®Eagle eyes¡¯ and I''ll give you half of what I can make¡± Julius said. The offer of a new skill made Maron think thoroughly, the temptation was too good for Maron who wants to have as much skill as possible, he pondered for a while weighing if it¡¯s worth it or not, so in the end he decided to think more, and asked Julius to give him a little more time to think. Afterwards he let Julius on his way and told him that he would tell his answer to him later. After Julius left, Maron contemplated seriously on his bed, he planned strategies and tactics to kill an eagle, he realized that he still didn¡¯t see his new gun, so he grabbed a [middle identification stone] from his pouch and grasped it. {Name: Maron} {Mana: 400/400} {Level: 27} {Class: Magic Gunner} {Race: High-human} {Skill: Infinite Ammo, Gun creator (Desert Eagle, MP5, AA-12, M4A1, XM2010, Gatling Gun), sleep bullet (level 2), poison shot (level 5), Repulsion bullet (level 1), Exploding shot (level 5)} {Strength: 45} {Intelligence: 55} {Wisdom: 46} {Dexterity: 40} {Agility: 65} {Defense (P): 50} {Defense (M):50} {Equipment:h Maron was flabbergasted at his new gun, he had his mouth wide open for a while. Afterwards he called out his Gatling gun, it was huge and heavy, with this that ¡®King bird¡¯ whatsoever didn¡¯t stand a chance. He now made up his mind, however he didn¡¯t immediately go to ¡®Potion chicken¡¯, he decided to go there after lunch, for now he drank one of the potions Julius gave him. He forcefully swallowed the liquid, and cursed at the disgusting taste of it, after a while he decided to go downstairs to eat breakfast. Sakura and Wuglat was already sitting at a table while chatting with each other, they were both clearly waiting for him because of the lack of dishes on their table. Wuglat saw Maron trudging down the stairs, so he signaled him to come over, and then Maron smilingly walked over them. ¡°Morning¡± Maron greeted, whereupon they also greeted him morning, ¡°What are you guys doing today?¡± ¡°Nothing much, what about you?¡± Wuglat replied. ¡°You know that guy it told you about yesterday, he asked to go hunt for a ¡®King bird¡¯¡± Maron said. ¡°Oh, and by the way here¡± Maron gave them a potion each, that was the troll¡¯s skin that Julius delivered to him earlier. Sakura and Wuglat observed the bottle, the dark green color of the liquid made them disgusted. ¡°I know it¡¯s disgusting to look at, however it would help you attain a new skill¡± Maron explained to them after seeing their faces. ¡°Okay¡± the two replied. They knew that Maron only want them to have new skill, so the two grabbed one each and drank it quickly, afterwards they showed a vomiting face, and stomped their feet hard because of the unbearable taste of the potion. Maron chuckled at the sight of the two of them, especially at the face of Wuglat his expression was priceless, while Sakura was just cute, Maron doesn¡¯t know why but everything Sakura does is cute to him, afterwards their distaste and disgusted face slowly turned to happiness. They grasped their [middle identification stone] and was delighted at the passive skill.If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. The troll¡¯s skin is not something to be looked down upon, because as long as you¡¯re not dead any injuries can heal, even a decapitated arm can be restored together if you put it up to the wound. Maron recognized how valuable the troll¡¯s skin is, he remembered the regeneration of the troll he shot with his Desert Eagle on the face yesterday, seconds later it didn¡¯t even look like it was hit in its face. If it wasn¡¯t for his stronger guns, he wouldn¡¯t have been able to kill it. ¡°Want to test it out¡± Maron asked. Which they replied with a nod, ¡°Okay, let¡¯s go out after breakfast¡± The three ate their meal quickly, they couldn¡¯t wait to test it out, especially Maron cause not only will he test out his ¡®Troll¡¯s skin¡¯, he¡¯ll also test out his ¡®Repulsion bullet¡¯ that he couldn¡¯t test out before. When the group finished their meal, they immediately stood up and walked to the forest. The group didn¡¯t go that deep only at the surrounding area of the kingdom, the party stopped going deeper when they found a swamp with lizards dwelling around it. Before the group could be seen by it, they moved behind a tree nearby, and started planning what they¡¯re going to do. The lizards are Level 5 monsters that stays en masse, they hunt as a group to overpower their prey, they surround it and then bite simultaneously until their victims bled out, they have poison in their saliva that can disable the clotting of the wounds, and they are also able to spit it out, about two meters far. These lizards are the perfect monsters to test their troll¡¯s regeneration ability, Wuglat was the first to come out, however before he faced the lizards Maron shot him with his ¡®Repulsion bullet¡¯, which is why he now has a glowing light blue barrier around him, with ¡®Repulsion bullet¡¯ and ¡®Troll¡¯s skin¡¯ the lizards didn¡¯t stand a chance. Wuglat was even letting them bite him in the arm, he would shout at the sting of their bites, but that¡¯s all, it would soon heal seconds later, and he¡¯s all good. Wuglat was now surrounded by almost 30 lizards everywhere he turns he could only see their blackish scales, however this wasn¡¯t enough to faze him, he took out his axes and started chopping at the lizards, blood would splatter everywhere, it made the scene gruesome and hard to look at, afterwards Wuglat came back to their spot happily. ¡°I leveled up, I''m level 10 now¡± Wuglat said. ¡°Those lizards were not even a treat, they are able to bruised me, however it healed quickly¡± ¡°Now we know how invaluable the ¡®troll¡¯s skin¡¯ is¡± Maron said. ¡°I think we need to find some stronger monsters to test out its utmost capability¡± ¡°Yeah, however I don¡¯t think anything in this vicinity could do that¡± Wuglat said. ¡°Let¡¯s try going further in the forest and look for some middle tier monsters.¡± ¡°What middle tier monsters?¡± Maron asked. ¡°Are you sure we¡¯re not biting more than we can chew here?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know, I''ve never gone this far before¡± Wuglat said. ¡°But I can assure you the farther it is to the kingdom the stronger the monsters are, don¡¯t worry they¡¯re not going to be as ferocious as ¡®King Birds¡¯ only level 25 at max, besides Sakura is with us, she¡¯s stronger than anyone I know inside the kingdom.¡± ¡°Okay¡± Maron said, he too wasn¡¯t really that fearful, because he had a Gatling gun, even if 100 trolls rushed to them simultaneously, he would still be able to wipe them all out. The deeper the party went, the signs of human activity started to disappear, before there would be trails of path on the ground, now there is only abundant grasses and bushes all over. Their vision is slowly getting weakened by the trees that are side by side of each other, Maron now took out his MP5, and was constantly shooting himself and the other two with repulsion bullets, they were all vigilant of anything that may pounce on them. Maron suddenly felt unsettled when they passed by a certain area, the atmosphere suddenly turned unusual, over the next few seconds tree branch grabbed Sakura and raised her in the air, then suddenly all of the surrounding trees started to make loud unintelligible noises, it was treants they came upon a habitat of treants. Suddenly everyone was in a state of confusion, Sakura was up in the air muttering, because a large branch was covering her mouth, Maron didn¡¯t know what to do. He changed his gun to M4A1 and started shooting all over the other treants, but there was no effect there would be holes in them, but the treants were still able to move, while Wuglat is cutting the trunk of a nearby treant with his fire axe, which was very effective. The treants weakness was fire, they are made out of wood so of course fire was its weakness, why could he only think of it now, he now started using exploding bullets, however he couldn¡¯t shoot at the treant that was holding Sakura because he might hit her. The clothing of Sakura is now all torn to pieces her bare white skin could be seen, she was still muttering and struggling to get out of the treant. ¡°Turn invisible Sakura¡± Maron shouted while shooting a treant with explosive bullets, afterwards Sakura immediately turned invisible. The treant seemed to be confused for a second, but it still could feel Sakura tangible body on its hand, so it still didn¡¯t let go, however its hold became loose for a bit. Sakura didn¡¯t let this moment waste, she quickly casted fireball behind her while still in the air, the treant that was holding her exploded and debris of wood splattered everywhere, splinter had pierced their skin, but thanks to the ¡®troll¡¯s skin¡¯ they were regenerating quickly, however it still hurt like hell so everyone was shouting like a madman, the feeling of being pierced by splinters and burned by fire was too much for them to handle, thankfully they had troll¡¯s skin if not for it they would¡¯ve already died ten times over on this battle. Sakura now got free of the treant, her invisible state made her invincible in this battle, treants were exploding every time she cast a skill. The treants couldn¡¯t understand what was happening to them, the abundant trees were now set in flames, the treants started to retreat, but it was too late the invisible Sakura with her inexhaustible mana pool became their worst nightmare. Over the next few minutes the plentiful trees were burned to the ground, the only thing you could see is burnt woods and smoke all over, a sudden gust of wind blew the smoke away and a beautiful girl stepped into view, with her torn clothes that exhibit her clear white skin, she looked like she came out of a movie, she was stunning. Maron felt his dick stand up, thankfully his M4A1 was still on his hands, it helped him hide his boner. Sakura saw Maron stare intently at her, she was confused for a second but after looking at herself, she found out the reason and raised her voice at Maron ¡°You pervert¡± whereupon Maron could only chuckle, afterwards she immediately grabbed new clothes on her magic pouch and quickly changed. ¡°That tested our new skill¡± Maron joked. ¡°I think now we know how invaluable this skill is, that disgusting taste was really worth it¡± ¡°I agree¡± the two seconded. ¡°Let¡¯s go home¡± Maron said ¡°I¡¯m starving, I wonder what time it is now?¡± ¡°It¡¯s probably about noon¡± Wuglat answered. ¡°We¡¯ve been here for a couple hours, I think¡± The party started walking back to the kingdom, their injuries rapidly healed, and after a couple of minutes their bruises and wounds are no more. Only torn clothes here and there, but everything else was fine. When they came back to the inn, Maron quickly took a table and ordered some food, while Wuglat went straight to his own room, he must¡¯ve been very exhausted. Maron and Sakura quickly ate their lunch and went to their own rooms right after. Maron closed his door and went straight to the bathroom, after everything that happened, he needed a long cold bath to recharge, afterwards he jumped on his bed naked to take a short nap, he still needed to come by ¡®Potion Chicken¡¯ to tell Julius his decision later, so what he needed was a rest. Chapter 21 Maron eyes abruptly shot open for no reason, his body quickly sat straight, remembering he needed to do, still drowsy and wiping his eye dirt, he got up and went to the bathroom to wash his face. Afterwards he changed to a new pair of clothes and slowly trudged outside to ¡¯Potion Chicken¡¯. Maron walked on the street of Cilon empire, the location of ¡®Potion Chicken¡¯ is an area that Maron rarely visits, actually most of the ¡®Cilon Empire¡¯ he has never really been to, he has only been back and forth to Lowlaws and the inn, so instead of going directly to ¡®Potion Chicken¡¯, Maron decided to take a detour and look at the neighborhood. He arrived at a street full of people on robes, the robes were of different colors but all had the same logo, a picture of an open book at the left chest, Maron pondered for a while and realized that it was probably the uniform of the academy, so these people here must be their students, the school must be near here. Maron found a big structure that the students would flock to, he decided to take a look inside, the moment he stepped inside everyone started eying him, however he didn¡¯t care about the stares and instead started to look around the shop. This place was a Magic Shop, there are staffs hanged on the wall, and wands on display, a worker explaining to a student the wand he was holding, when suddenly a guy talked to him. ¡°Can I help you?¡± The guy rudely asked. He was dressed like the guy that was explaining something to the other student, so Maron deduced that he was a worker here. ¡°Yeah, what kind of things do you sell here?¡± Maron asked. The worker observed him from head to toe, before saying ¡°A lot¡± ¡°Wow, that¡¯s really helpful¡± Maron said and quickly grabbed his pouch and jingled it in front of the worker. Afterwards the expression of the worker slowly changed to a polite one. ¡°What were you selling here?¡± Maron asked again. ¡°Magic stuff sir, we have wands, staff, potions, magic books, anything that¡¯s related to magic we have it here sir¡± the worker said. ¡°Do you have a Magic pouch?¡± Maron asked. ¡°How much is it?¡± ¡°We do have it sir, a 10-kilogram capacity would be 10 gold coins, a 20-kilogram would be 30 gold coins, and a 30-kilogram would be 50 gold coins.¡± The worker explained. Maron pondered for a moment grabbed some coins in the pouch and thrown the pouch to him, the content of that pouch was now 50 gold coins, the payment he got from delivering Julius the troll¡¯s ears. Afterwards the worker quickly ran to get some Magic pouch and then gave it to Maron, he quickly left right after without saying anything. Maron continued his sightseeing and arrived at a plaza, the place was bustling with different people, guys just lying around on the grass, a family having a picnic, a couple kissing each other. Maron found a stand that sells different kinds of bread, he grabbed some coins out of his pockets and ordered some bread. After an hour passed, Maron now has reached the ¡®Potion Chicken¡¯ with a bag of snack in tow. He knocked on the door while chewing on a hotdog. ¡°Hey Julius, it¡¯s me¡± Maron shouted. After a while Julius opened the door with his white coat full of stains, it seemed like he had just been doing something. ¡°You¡¯re here¡± Julius said. ¡°I thought you were going to decline and not meet me ever again¡± ¡°What?¡± Maron was baffled. ¡°I¡¯m not that kind of guy, besides were friends now aren¡¯t we¡± ¡°Yeah¡± Julius said. ¡°Come inside¡± Maron went inside, the interior looked normal, there are shelves with different kinds of potion on it, if it weren¡¯t for the outside looking like an abandoned house. Maron took his time observing the room, he raised a blue bottle and shook it, which Julius reproached him from doing again, he added that the bottles should not be opened because the potency of it would decrease. On a different section of the room there are exotic things on the shelves, there are eyeballs on a jar. ¡°What are these¡± Maron asked as he raised a jar. ¡°That¡¯s a concoction of different acids, it can dissolve rocks in a matter of seconds¡± Julius said. ¡°I need you to be cautious with that¡± Maron immediately put it back, and wiped his hands on his shirt, it was a good thing that he didn¡¯t try to play with it. Maron circled the whole shop before Julius called him out to another room, after entering the new room, Maron couldn¡¯t help but be amazed, because there was large pot in the middle being boiled by firewood, that is the biggest pot Maron has ever seen, it looks like the thing that witches use, there are flasks of different kinds on a long table at the side of the room, this room is where he creates the potion that¡¯s exhibited earlier. ¡°What are you doing?¡± Maron asked after seeing the boiling pot. ¡°I¡¯m concocting a healing potion¡± Julius answered. ¡°It can recover your vitality up to 50 percent, makes you able to fight longer and makes you regain your stamina¡± ¡°Wow, that¡¯s amazing what¡¯s it made of?¡± Maron pondered. ¡°I might buy some of it for future use you know¡± ¡°Yeah, it¡¯s made out of troll¡¯s blood¡± Julius said. ¡°A group of adventurers yesterday found a dead troll outside yesterday. The adventurers even said that it was punctured with holes, and they could only collect a small bottle of its blood, also the only thing missing was their ear, the adventurer who killed it must¡¯ve had a specific purpose for its ears, he didn¡¯t even touch anything on the troll¡± ¡°What about you how much have you sold for the troll¡¯s blood you gathered¡± Julius curiously asked. He didn¡¯t know that Maron was the guy that left the troll.Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon. Maron felt speechless, how couldn¡¯t he have known that a troll¡¯s blood was valuable, he felt dumber when he remembered that he killed eight trolls. He almost fell on his knees thinking of how much he could¡¯ve earned if he wasn¡¯t so fucking dumb. ¡°You know, enough to buy me a gold armor¡± Maron lied and quickly changed the subject. ¡°Let¡¯s talk about that eagle, where do I go to find it?¡± ¡°Are you saying you¡¯re going to hunt it?¡± Julius said gleefully. ¡°I thought you were here to reject my favor¡± ¡°I¡¯m here to accept it¡± Maron said. ¡°However, I have a condition. I want some of this thing you''re concocting.¡± ¡°Sure¡± Julius willingly agreed. ¡°That is not a problem, I could even give you some potions outside if you want¡± ¡°Sure¡± Maron quickly said. ¡°There¡¯s no reason to reject free potions.¡± Afterwards Julius explained to Maron the strength of the ¡®Kingbird¡¯ and started drawing a map for him. He warned Maron to always be careful, because the moment a kingbird grabs you, you are dead. He also explained the skills of it, its wings can create a wind attack that can carry you of the ground. Maron received the paper and told Julius to not be worried, he had already planned a strategy earlier this morning for the ¡®Kingbird¡¯, he was confident that he could take it down, with the help of his Gatling gun, Maron doesn¡¯t think that ¡®Kingbird¡¯ would be able to handle it. Maron did not directly go to hunt the ¡®Kingbird¡¯, He first stopped at the inn to get his armor first. He was ultra-careful about this hunt, because this is the strongest monster he would encounter so far. After getting his golden armor, he studied the map and went on his way. On the road to the jungle all the people he passed by would stare at him for a couple of seconds before minding their business, it was because of his shiny golden armor, it was a good thing that he had his visor down, this way no one would be able to recognize him. After an hour Maron scanned the map and realized that he had reached the place indicated in it, the place was wide, open land. Maron realized why it would frequent here, this place was the best hunting grounds for it, no trees to block its vision just open vast land, the eagle would be able to swoop down on anything that runs on this place. Maron pumped himself up and repeated that he could do it a couple of times before quickly walking to the middle of the field, with what he¡¯s wearing there was no way that a ¡®Kingbird¡¯ wouldn¡¯t be able to see him. After a few minutes a bird could be seen flying at the sky circling all over him, Maron believed that it was the ¡®Kingbird¡¯, when suddenly it was getting bigger and bigger, thankfully Maron quickly realized that it was swooping down on him fast, but before it could get too close Maron had already summoned a big Gatling gun out of nowhere. The Kingbird¡¯s pupil dilated with the sudden appearance of a mysterious object however it didn¡¯t have any intention of stopping its dive, instead it squealed and tucked in its wings for faster diving speed. The distance of the two was quickly decreased, however Maron¡¯s Gatling gun had already been aimed to it, when it came into range, he immediately pulled the trigger hard and bombarded it with a combination of his spell ¡®Exploding bullet¡¯ and ¡®Poison shot¡¯. ¡°Oh shit!¡± Maron shouted as he jumped to the side. The kingbird crashed straight unto where he was before, its crash unto the ground created a cloud of sand, Maron quickly unsummoned his Gatling gun, and changed it with his M4A1. He aimed the gun to the direction of the dust cloud, and slowly walked to it, after the dust settled a big bird displayed itself in front of Maron. The bird was still alive but it didn¡¯t have the strength to move itself anymore, it was just laid there with its eyes still half open. The Kingbird¡¯s features could be seen clearly by Maron, it was huge almost thrice his size, its beak was beautifully curved at the end, its claws are as sharp as a knife, its feather was just the right balance of brown and white. Maron was awed at its majestic appearance, even though this thing planned to kill him earlier, after a bit of pondering he slowly aimed his M4A1 at its head and pulled the trigger, that made the Kingbird¡¯s body convulse. ¡®Ding¡¯ Level up. ¡®Ding¡¯ Level up. ¡®Ding¡¯ Level up. ¡®Ding¡¯ Level up. ¡®Ding¡¯ Level up. Maron heard announcements in his head, it provided proof that the Kingbird was dead, he crouched beside its head to grab its eyeball, however he remembered the troll¡¯s that he killed and decided to carry the whole thing back to the Kingdom. He grabbed the bird by the feet and slowly dragged it back to the kingdom, he would encounter some monsters here and there however he quickly killed it with his M4A1, after a couple of hours Maron finally reached the gate. The guards on duty that time was surprised by him, but they couldn¡¯t distinguish who he was because his visor was down, he slowly walked to the ¡®Potion Chicken¡¯ with the ¡®Kingbird¡¯ in tow, he was groaning at every time he took a step, the bird was really heavy thankfully he was able to drag it at least. Every bystander he passes by would stare at him only this time they didn¡¯t quickly go mind their business after, instead they stopped what they were doing and tried to discern who he was. If this bird didn¡¯t have any use aside from its eyeballs, Maron swore to kill himself. After the laborious task he finally reached the Potion Chicken, he heaved a euphoric sigh of relief after reaching the front door. He knocked on the door with a closed sign attached to it and waited for a little while before Julius opened it. Julius¡¯ appearance clearly showed that he just took a nap, his hair was a mess, and he was wiping his eyes. ¡°What do you want?¡± Julius asked irritatingly. ¡°Can¡¯t you read the sign? I''m closed for the day¡± Maron was flabbergasted. He raised his right arm and wanted to punch Julius at his face, but he stopped himself and said ¡°It¡¯s me, dipshit!¡± ¡°Maron?¡± Julius said. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, I didn¡¯t recognize you with your visor down¡± he felt horrible and apologized a couple more times ¡°I see that you were so worried about me¡± Maron mocked. ¡°Maybe my first impression of you was right¡±. Maron isn¡¯t going to forget about this for a little while. Maron quickly dragged the Kingbird in front of the house, whereupon Julius was only able to see now, Maron said firmly ¡°Here¡¯s your Kingbird. Deliver the potion to the inn when you¡¯re finished.¡± and quickly left right after, not caring about his reaction or how he was going to get it inside his shop. When Maron got cak to the inn it was already night, he was greeted by Sakura who was waiting on a table, afterwards she suddenly pounced on him and hugged him tight. "Where have you been?" Sakura asked worriedly. "You shoud''ve took me with you, if you were going to hunt that ''Kingbird''." "Wha-" Maron couldn''t respond. Instead, he just hugged her back. "I''m sorry" was the only thing he could say afterwards. "Have you eaten?" Sakura asked while still hugging him. "No, not yet" Maron answered. "Let''s eat then." Sakura said and stepped out from the hug. "Grab a seat, I''ll ask Aunt Snak to make something for us" Maron quickly grabbed a seat, and waited for his dinner happily, his irritation from earlier has vanished completely, it was replaced with happiness and delight. Afterwards the two slowly enjoyed their meal and Maron told her about what he did earlier and she told Maron how her day went. " Chapter 22 Maron woke up staring at the ceiling of his room, it was already morning, but he didn¡¯t have the strength to stand up, he just lied down on his bed without caring about mundane matters, he suddenly remembered when his mother would wake him up and force him to go to school, he would tell her five more minutes but that always never works, but he still kept saying it though. Maron chuckled at the nostalgic memories. After a few minutes Maron finally decided to get up, same as his usual routine before going downstairs. He washed his face and gargled some water to remove his morning breath. Afterwards Maron went on his way downstairs. There he could see the two happily chatting on a table, the two were so immersed in their conversation that they didn¡¯t even notice that Maron was there until he was already seated. ¡°Morning¡± Maron greeted. ¡°What are you two talking about?¡± ¡°Morning¡± Sakura said. ¡°Just some gossip on the streets, looks like a knight in golden shining armor is roaming around the street yesterday, he was even carrying a Kingbird, he is the hottest gossip in the kingdom right now, everyone in the streets is trying to guess who it is. It looks like someone¡¯s turning to a superstar.¡± Sakura teased, knowing full well that the guy was Maron. Maron didn¡¯t respond to Sakura¡¯s teasing, instead he made a funny face at her, afterwards the three ordered some coffee and bread to start their morning. When suddenly a woman came up to their table and sat beside them, it was Aqua. She greeted the good morning and grabbed a piece of bread from the plate of Sakura, which didn¡¯t seem to mind about it. ¡°Why are you here?¡± Maron began. ¡°I¡¯m here to tell you guys about the tournament, it will be held this week on the Empire¡¯s coliseum, also it seems like it¡¯s because there are people from Courian that¡¯s coming. That¡¯s why it became a very big deal, it was excessive of them to announce it on short notice and expect us to be able to make preparation in such a short amount of time, all the adventurers are registering to join the tournament.¡± Aqua explained. ¡°I¡¯m here to tell you guys about the tournament, they said that the tournament will be held this week, it seems like there are people from Courian that will supervise it.¡± Aqua said. ¡°That is why it suddenly became a big event, now everyone in the streets wants to start a festival on the days that the tournament will be held¡± ¡°A festival?¡± Maron contemplated. ¡°I guess the people from Courian are really superstars, to be able to start a festival in another kingdom.¡± ¡°Yeah, tell me about it¡± Aqua said. ¡°As long as you¡¯re from Courian, you become a big deal anywhere. That is why I want to study there, that¡¯s why our party need you Sakura, with you in our team we¡¯ll certainly win¡± ¡°Okay¡± Saura said shyly. She turned red with embarrassment. ¡°What kind of tournament is it?¡± Maron asked. ¡°I don¡¯t think my gun is suitable for a non-deadly tournament.¡± Maron said getting worried, he didn¡¯t have any weapons aside from his guns, and his guns are used as a tool to kill and nothing less. ¡°I think I''m going to have to back out¡±. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, this tournament will be run by professionals from Courian¡± Aqua said. ¡°I doubt that they would want someone to die, they would probably have some item that will prevent the participants from dying¡± Maron just shrugged, he thought for a moment and agreed to what Aqua said. The four continued their breakfast and gossiped about the golden armor guy yesterday, in which Maron acted ignorant and played along. Aqua¡¯s personality made her easy to get along with, any stranger that looks at them now would think that they have been friends for a while. After finishing their chat and breakfast Aqua said her goodbye and gave them the location of their guild.If you encounter this narrative on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. ¡°Here, if you need anything don¡¯t hesitate to ask me¡± Aqua said and then waved, in which the three also waved back. ¡°What do we do now?¡± Wuglat asked. ¡°Well, since the tournament is this week¡± Maron said. ¡°Why don¡¯t go outside and train our skills, we don¡¯t have that much to do anyway¡± ¡°Sorry¡± Sakura said. ¡°I¡¯m going out with Aqua later, she said we were going shopping later¡± ¡°That okay¡± Maron said casually. ¡°What about you Wuglat?¡± ¡°I¡¯m going to pass too¡± Wugalt said. ¡°Since I''m not in the tournament, I think I need to focus more on leveling because your levels are too much, I think I need to catch up and also the adventurers at the guild are starting to party with me, when they knew that I was friends with Sakura¡± ¡°Wow, that¡¯s good, alright I''ll train alone then.¡± Maron said unconcerned. Training alone was not a big deal for him anyway, he understands that the two don¡¯t need to be with him all the time, and he needed to raise his accuracy too, well it didn¡¯t really matter anyway cause he had infinite ammo, he could just hold the trigger down and hope a bullet would hit, but still raising his abilities is always better. Afterwards Maron went outside of the gates and found a wide space. He realized that he needed some targets, so he went to a nearby tree and carved a circle on it. First, he used his Desert Eagle and was shooting at 10 meters and then 20 meters, until he reached 200 meters, at 200 meters his bullets would sometimes hit outside the circle. Then next is his MP5, he did the same procedure and lasted until 250 meters, he also only used his sleep bullet all the time to level it up. The Desert Eagle and MP5 are the only guns he will use in the tournament. He was afraid that if he used his other guns it would be unfair for his opponents. A couple of hours has passed since Maron started training his accuracy, Maron finally could hit the bullseye even in 300 meters. Now that he finished training with his Desert Eagle and MP5 he wanted to try out how far his sniper rifle could reach, he tried moving as far as 500 meters but it was too easy, he could still hit bullseye effortlessly, he tried as far as 1000 meters still he was hitting the middle, until he got to 2000 meters, he was still able to hit inside the circle, however not in the middle anymore. Maron decided to end his training and come back to the inn. There he found Julius sitting on a table waiting for him, however he didn¡¯t want to talk to him right now, instead he immediately walked to the stairs, he just wants to go upstairs and take a rest, he was exhausted from training, his right arm is all sore from the recoil of the guns he had used. ¡°Maron¡± Julius stopped him. ¡°Is it done?¡± Maron asked about the potion. ¡°Not yet¡± Julius said. ¡°But can I talk to you for a moment?¡± ¡°I¡¯m tired right now Julius¡± Maron said. ¡°I just finished training. I just want to take a nap right now¡± ¡°I just wanted to thank you for the Kingbird yesterday¡± Julius said. ¡°I only wanted the eyeball, but you gave me the whole thing, so if you need any other potion you can ask me anything.¡± ¡°Yeah, sure¡± Maron said nonchalantly. ¡°I¡¯m going to sleep now¡± and then he left for his room. After coming inside his room, he went to the bathroom to wash away the sweat and smell, afterwards he lied down on his bed without any clothes on and immediately slept. Chapter 23 Maron abruptly opened his eyes at the loud banging on his door, he forced himself up and an elf displayed herself when he opened the door, his drowsy self suddenly turned alert because of her voluptuous appearance. Maron couldn¡¯t helped but be wide-eyed and stare at her enormous racks, he knows that it was rude and he might get slapped but still it was worth it. The elf coughed angrily with her fist clenched, Maron closed his eyes and prepared himself for the slap, however it was already a few seconds but there was still nothing hitting his face. ¡°Are you Maron?¡¯ the elf asked with displeasure. Maron slowly opened his eyes and answered ¡°Yeah, may I help you?¡± ¡°My name is Caeda¡± she said. ¡°I¡¯m here for the tournament, I heard from Aqua that you and Sakura are going to team up with us, all the team will register today, so I''m here to get you to come with me.¡± ¡°Okay¡± Maron said. There really was no reason to decline, it didn¡¯t seem like she was lying too, so Maron readily followed her and they reached a street that Maron was familiar with. This was the street where he bought the Magic pouch, they walked past by that store and reached a big gate and went inside. This place is probably the academy, looking at the people passing by with the same robe on that he saw yesterday, anyone could¡¯ve guessed that this was the academy. Caeda was walking so fast that Maron is always two steps behind her, he tried to increase his pace to catch up beside her, but when he gets close to her, she walks even faster. The two looked like they were on a race, Maron pressed together his lips and walked even faster, until finally Caeda stopped and went inside a building. Inside the building was a crowd of adventurers, he was sure that it was adventurers because of their armors and weapons, there are some that are wearing robes too. Maron wandered his eyes and found familiar faces, Bruno, Aqua and Sakura was in a corner chatting with themselves, he quickly walked up to them, poked Sakura¡¯s shoulder, and greeted the other two. ¡°Hey¡± Maron said. Sakura was startled a bit, but when she saw who it was, she quickly turned to smile. ¡°You¡¯re here¡± Sakura said. ¡°What is this place?¡± Maron asked. ¡°Why are there so many people here?¡± ¡°This is the register area for the tournament¡± it was Aqua who answered. ¡°They suddenly said that today is the deadline for joining the tournament, so everyone rushed here to register their team¡± ¡°Why is that?¡± Maron asked. ¡°We don¡¯t know¡± Aqua said. ¡°I don¡¯t think anyone knows, we tried to ask them but they don¡¯t tell us anything and wants us to register with the whole team, now that we¡¯re complete were going to ask them again.¡± Afterwards the party went to a desk with an old woman sitting behind it. ¡°We¡¯re going to register for the tournament¡± Aqua said. ¡°The required level is 20 and the maximum member of the team is 5¡± the woman said. ¡°We¡¯re all above Level 20 ma¡¯am¡± Bruno said. The old woman eyed all of them and told the group to touch a stone. If the stone glowed red it means that you are at least Level 20, but when it doesn¡¯t that means you¡¯re not. The group grasped the stone one by one and each time it glowed red it means that all of them were qualified to join. Afterwards the five was given identical stones, the woman explained that the stone will play a recording of the rules and everything you wanted to know before the tournament starts. The party left the build lacking knowledge about the tournament, all they know is that they are registered and there are going to be a lot of opponents based on how many was in that building, afterwards they decided to have a meeting on a nearby restaurant to discuss. The party used this time to get close to each other, the first one to start was Bruno, unlike when they first met, Bruno¡¯s attitude now is more preferable. ¡°My name is Bruno¡± he said as he tried to shake the hands of Maron. ¡°I just want to say sorry for my rude behavior when we first met. I didn¡¯t mean to be impolite to you¡± ¡°That¡¯s alright¡± Maron said and shook the hand. ¡°I was rude to you too, so let¡¯s just drop and forget about the past¡±. Maron and Bruno seemed to have reconciled and are now starting to banter with each other, they both seem to have many similarities, they both are just 18 and their sense of humor are alike too, so it was easy for the two to be friends.Enjoying the story? Show your support by reading it on the official site. Afterwards Maron took a glance at Caeda, he felt uncomfortable but he wanted to resolve the misunderstanding earlier, well not really a misunderstanding but his offending actions earlier, he wanted to apologize to her quickly, but he didn¡¯t know how to approach her. He finally gathered his courage after a few minutes and started to talk to Caeda. ¡°Caeda¡± Maron began. ¡°I just want to say sorry about earlier, I didn¡¯t really mean to do it, but I just couldn¡¯t help myself, from the bottom of my heart, I ask for forgiveness.¡± Maron sincerely said. Caeda just stared at him for a few seconds, seeing his genuine attempt to apologize, she finally decided to forgive him, besides they were going to be in one team, so having a grudge on your teammate is not a good thing, that is one of the things she learned being an adventurer. ¡°Don¡¯t worry about it¡± Caeda said. Maron not convinced that she entirely forgave him said. ¡°I¡¯ll make it up to you, I''ll treat you to a meal some other time.¡± ¡°Sure¡± Caeda replied. ¡°What happened?¡± Aqua asked, ignorant of what they were talking about. ¡°Nothing¡± Caeda said casually and lied. ¡°Just some minor incident that happened earlier, he tripped me on our way to the academy.¡± ¡°Oh, that''s upsetting¡± Aqua didn¡¯t pry about it and instead started discussing about their plans. ¡°Let¡¯s talk about our strategies, but first let¡¯s share our skills to each other since we three don¡¯t know your skills, and you two don¡¯t know our skills either.¡± Aqua said seriously. ¡°My skills¡± Bruno started. ¡°It¡¯s called ¡®Berserk¡¯- every time I activate it my strength doubles, another is ¡®Shield Bash¡¯-I stun my opponents with my shield, another is a passive called ¡®Bear skin¡¯-it makes my damage resistance increase. As you can see with my skills, I¡¯m the tanker of the group.¡± he said proudly. ¡°I am the Mage¡± Aqua explained her spells next. ¡°My skills are ¡®Water missile¡¯- a ball of water that explodes on hit, ¡®Ice wall¡¯- a wall that can withstand enemy spells, and I also have ¡®Cleanse¡¯ - a type of healing magic that can cure wounds and disinfect poison.¡± ¡°I am the Archer¡± Caeda said. ¡°My skills are ¡®Power shot¡¯, ¡®Split shot¡¯, and a passive aura called ¡®Precision¡¯¡±. There was no need to explain her skills, everything about it was understandable on the name alone. It was Sakura¡¯s turn next, she told all of her skills except the ¡®Invisible Cloak¡¯ and ¡®Gifted Wizard¡¯, she explained her other spells, the three was shocked by her spells quality, they asked where she found it, or who she got it from, especially the ¡®Hand of God¡¯ Aqua didn¡¯t hesitate to pry about it, she even asked if she could teach it to her, in which Sakura said that the book wasn¡¯t hers so she needed the owner''s permission, which was Wuglat. Maron¡¯s turn came next, he took out his Desert Eagle and presented it on the table, which caused the three to look fixedly on the thing. At first, he didn¡¯t want to tell the people of this world about his guns because of the repercussions that might come about by revealing them, however after seeing the powers of the adventurers and monsters here, it didn¡¯t look like his guns were overpowered or anything, so he decided to not hide it anymore and bring it out in the open. He slowly tried to describe the gun. ¡°This is a gun, a pistol to be exact.¡± Maron started. ¡°You can think of it as a developed crossbow, an improved form of a crossbow, but instead of arrows, it uses what you call bullets.¡± Maron didn¡¯t know how to show them the bullets without shooting, because all of his guns didn¡¯t have magazines, it was the same design and mechanism as the actual gun but without the magazines, so it was useless explaining to them about the bullet, but still they understood the idea of it, even though Maron was shit at explaining it. ¡°And this is an MP5¡± Maron said and the Desert Eagle quickly changed to it. ¡°This is a different form of a gun, it does better than the Desert Eagle.¡± The three stared at the MP5 intently, the appearance of it was more alien to the eye, the three were mesmerized by the gun, Aqua even tried to fiddle with it but Maron obstructed her because playing with a gun is a dumb thing to do. ¡°Is it strong?¡± Caeda asked curiously. ¡°What about its penetration power? My long bow can pierce a tree with my ¡®Power shot¡¯¡± she bragged about her bow. ¡°I don¡¯t think this can pierce a tree¡± Maron baffled. ¡°How is it an improvement then?¡± Bruno pondered. ¡°Well maybe it¡¯s not an improvement, more like a variation then¡± Maron tried to explain. The three was amazed at the impression of it at first, however after hearing that it cannot pierce a tree, their interest on the gun slowly diminished to a cursory glance. After describing their skills to each other the group dispersed and left to do their own thing, while Maron and Sakura went back to the inn together. Chapter 24 Maron went straight to his room after entering the inn, and took a nap although he wasn¡¯t exhausted only bored, back on earth he had a computer and a cellphone to play with when he had free time however here he had nothing to do aside from hunt monsters which is unsuitable now, because it¡¯s almost nighttime, he only decided to stand up after an hour because his stomach grumbled, a sign that he was hungry. He went downstairs, the inn was uncrowded at this hour, since it¡¯s only noon and dinner is still an hour away, there are only a few customers eating, Maron took a seat by the window, to be able to gaze outside, eating beside the window while looking outside was one of Maron¡¯s weird obsessions. He ordered some food from Aunt Snak, which quickly came after a few minutes, he pondered on what to do next while eating, he didn¡¯t really know what his purpose here was, so he decided that after the tournament he would party with Sakura and Wuglat to find the other people from Earth. Maron finished his meal and got out of the inn to breathe some fresh air, while outside Maron thought of roaming around the kingdom, and then he started to walk without any destination in mind. He passed the street where the Potion Chicken was located, come to think of it, the ¡®Eagle Eye¡¯ potion that Julius owed him was still not delivered, so he decided to check up on it. Maron nocked on the door of the shop for a while before finally being opened by an exhausted looking Julius. ¡°Hey¡± Maron greeted. ¡°I¡¯m here for the ¡®Eagle Eye¡¯ potion, is it done yet?¡± ¡°Yeah¡± Julius replied and gestured Maron to come inside. ¡°The potion is done cooking, but it still needed to be refined a little more, which was completed earlier, I''ve been working on this potion ever since, so I just needed a little rest and planned to deliver it to you tomorrow.¡± ¡°Yeah, seeing your eyebags, it looks like you¡¯ve been working hard on this potion¡± Maron said. The two went to the backroom where the huge pot was located, Julius picked up five potion bottles on a desk and gave it to Maron, not only that he also gave Maron a bag full of coins and other potions. ¡°What¡¯s this?¡± Maron asked. ¡°That¡¯s payment¡± Julius answered. ¡°I sold the other parts of the ¡®Kingbird¡¯ tailors, the skin of a ¡®Kingbird¡¯ can make a nice piece of leather, they even asked me who was the golden armored guy, which I didn¡¯t tell by the way¡± ¡°You got anything else you need?¡± Maron asked suddenly. ¡°I don¡¯t really have that much to do, so I don¡¯t mind helping you gather monster materials for half of the product you make out of it.¡±This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version. ¡°Are you sure?¡± Julius said surprised. ¡°I have a lot of recipes I inherited from my master, but I can¡¯t collect the ingredients for it, if you¡¯re willing to help me, I certainly can give you half of what I can make.¡± ¡°It¡¯s a deal then.¡± Maron raised his hand for a handshake. ¡°However, there¡¯s still this tournament going on, and I joined it, so I can¡¯t be hunting any monsters for you this week.¡± ¡°You joined the tournament?¡± Julius asked. ¡°I heard that whoever wins gets to study in Courian.¡± ¡°Yeah¡± Maron said. ¡°That¡¯s what everyone says, all the adventurers seem to like to study at Courian, tell me about this Courian, what¡¯s good about it?¡± Maron asked curiously. ¡°Are you kidding?¡± Julius was baffled. ¡°Okay let me tell you the reason why every adventurer wants to study there, first because of the various Magic books and skills that could be found in their library, second their teachers, every teacher there are certified professionals at their craft, so if you could be taught by them your skills will rise by leaps and bounds, third is the entitlement, once you¡¯re a student of Courian you are considered a genius, and not only you even your family will rise from society, and fourth Courian is the school of the strongest mages in the continent.¡± ¡°Wow¡± Maron was amazed. ¡°It looks like you also want to study there, thank you for this, it''s getting late so I''ll be leaving now" "Okay" Julius replied. "Take care." Maron left the shop after, it was already dark by the time he came back to the inn, unlike earlier there are a lot of customers at this hour because it was already dinner time, he didn¡¯t mind them though, he quickly went straight for the stairs and into his room, he wanted to check everything that¡¯s in the bag that Julius gave him. When he opened it, gold coins, health potions, mana potion filled the bag, afterwards he dumped all the contents on the bed and counted the coins, that totaled 300, he was shocked at the amount of it, he didn¡¯t expect the Kingbird to cost that much, with this much money Maron didn¡¯t have to worry about his lodging for the next few years, he even thought of buying some skill books, like the Power shot of Caeda, he was really interested in that skill, so he planned to go shopping tomorrow for magic books. While fantasizing about the different magic that he wanted to learn, suddenly the sound of someone knocking on the door disrupted him, it was probably Sakura or Wuglat, only the two would concern themselves with him, Maron¡¯s presumption turned incorrect, because the person who greeted him was a stranger, a young kid with glasses on, Maron wondered about the kid, he crouched down to meet the kid eye to eye. ¡°Can I help you?¡± Maron asked worriedly. ¡°Are you lost?¡± ¡°Are you from earth?¡± the kid asked.
