Chapter 95 - Darbaudr's Past
"I am from the Ylercester Province, where there are many summoners who have multiple elemental spirits," Darbaudr, the Barbarian hunter, revealed something about himself which shocked Ajax utterly.
"What?"
From Elder Boron, he learned there are other provinces other than Zrochester Province with the more concentrated essence of nature. But he never revealed the Provinces' names, which is why Ajax doesn't know about the names.
But he knows one thing for sure. These provinces are separated by some barrier which helps protect the lower level provinces from the higher level province.
So, when he heard that the Barbarian Darbaudr came from another province made him shock as it is impossible to travel between the province without sufficient strength.
So far, he doesn't know what level of strength is required to travel between the provinces.
"Yes, I came from another province after killing the army of the Demon king servants who killed my entire tribe and when I faced one of the 12 apostles of the Demon king's I was utterly lost" When he thought about that fight between him and the Apostle of the Demon King.
He clenched his fist and continued, "Finally, when I thought I can die in his hands, instead of killing me, he sealed my spirit consciousness and forcefully transported me to this province with some kind of Mysterious technique."
"As soon as I woke up, I am in this province with my spirit consciousness tied to that contract stone, after that what happened is you know already," the Barbarian hunter explained, slowly controlling his anger.
Ajax stood there listening to all the information Darbaudr has said about his past.
After finishing explaining his past, Darbaudr sighed as he continued, "Finally I lost all hope of revenge against the Demon King, as I can't even kill one of his apostles who is ranked last among all his 12 apostles".
Seeing his sad expression, Ajax felt sorry for him and said, "Although I can't promise to help you with your revenge, I can help you reach your previous cultivation."
Ajax knows how it feels not to take revenge even though you know that enemy as his story is also similar, but he doesn't know the real mastermind yet.
"It is me who owes you, the master for freeing me with that contract stone for which I am willing to protect you for your kindness, Master," Darbaudr respectfully said to Ajax.
"Also, please don't call me master," Ajax requested Darbaudr not to call him a master in the future.
"Then I will call Young master, what do you say, master?", Darbaudr asked with the same respect.
"Whatever," Ajax shook his head and asked, "What was your previous cultivation strength?".
"I was at the peak of the elite general realm and just a step away from the King realm, Young master," Darbaudr's words shocked Ajax once again.
"What? You were that strong?" Ajax asked with praise in his voice.
"Yes," Darbaudr replied.
"And you didn't defeat the 12th ranked apostle, even with that strength", Ajax's breathing became fast as he asked Darbaudr abut the strength of thApostlele.
"He has the strength of the low-level King realm" Ajax stopped asking any further questions as he has a long way even to reach that kind of strength and didn't want to frustrated at his low-level cultivation.
Even with the system, it is complicated to reach the King realm quickly, so why bother about something that much time to achieve anyway was the only thought in his mind.
"Okay then, we should go back," Ajax said to the Barbarian Darbaudr and slowly walked towards the Goldcrest town.
'Ding,
Mission 2, Upgrading an elemental spirit is completed successfully.
'Ding,
An attempt to roll in the lottery is rewarded. Please check the lottery system feature.
'Ding,
A new mission is generated in the quest tab, and Please check it in the quest tab.
A series of system notifications chimed in his head, which stopped him in his tracks.
"Huh?" Ajax was forgotten about mission two, and when he saw the notification, he smiled and laughed at himself for forgetting his reward.
But he didn't check it and decided to use the lottery feature after getting more attempts to roll.
Instead, he opened the quest tab to check the new mission, which is generated recently.
'Ding,
Mission name:- Help the follower.
Description:- How can a master not help his follower who is faced with a problem. Release the five seals placed in your follower's spirit consciousness, The Barbarian Hunter, Darbaudr, by one of the Demon King's apostles.
Reward:- For each seal removed, the host can get a reward depending on the situation.
Time limit:- No time limit.
Danger rating:- A+
"I just said that I will help him recover his strength to comfort him, but you directly generated a mission for it separately" Ajax didn't believe the system will generate this mission, which he already decided to do he didn't bother about it much.
"Since there is no time limit I can slowly unseal his seals," Ajax relaxed when he saw there is no time limit for it.
After that, he suddenly remembered something and turned around and summoned the previously evolved Necros.
"Necros, now you have evolved to commander realm, you can transform into a human, right?", Ajax asked Necros wanting to look at the human transformation of the Necros.
"Yes, Summoning Master," he transformed into a human form like Volcanis within a few seconds.
His human form is quite the opposite of the Volcanis, who looked like a Knight without armor. But Necros looked like a placid young man around 20 years old, with some dark and death energy surrounding him and making him look like a demon cultivator.
Demon cultivators are the cultivator who uses human lives for their rapid cultivation, and they don't like to socialize with anyone and remains individually their entire life killing their fellow humans, eating their flesh and drinking human blood.
So they are treated as the enemy of humankind.
Fearing someone might assume Necros as a demonic cultivator, he quickly summoned him back and rushed towards the residence building with the Barbarian behind him.
