Will of chaos

Chapter 459 Cap 457: Frustrated Hero Part 1(Chapter Preview)



Pov Alan’s:

I was only able to stay a few days in the village of the Elves with Bianca and Darcia, that’s why I couldn’t stay in the same place as Zenos.

I couldn’t understand how the Elves who are known to be wise and cautious allowed such a dangerous being into their village that it was willing to kill dozens of them upon its arrival in such a dominant manner.

How could they trust someone like him, on the way through the Illusory Forest I found him and his companions friendly and easy to talk to, but what I saw at the entrance to the village was a monster used to killing without hesitation.

The creatures that were with him were also deceptive, I could feel the bloodlust of the little monster pup on Zenos’ shoulder, I also saw a Fairy at that moment, a strange Fairy full of bloodlust that looked more like a Demon beside I felt something else lurking in his shadow.

I couldn’t accept that sort of thing, so I went after the information I wanted to get out of there as quickly as possible.

But I was surprised by what I discovered, I came here because people from Grimo Realm said that there was information about Demons and Vampires within Makari Realm.

This was a good starting point for me, there were also other strange situations happening on this continent, there was information about a Dungeon full of Undead in the Trigan Kingdom and a big event in the mountain range that mobilized armies of almost all religions to there.

I had to investigate all this, this continent where there are few with the same level of strength as me will be a suitable place to gain real field experience.

I know that I am immature, I know that I am not a fool like most young nobles who think they are invincible, I know that I have great talent, I know that I have received the best of training and I have received the best of forms of education.

I even had the honor of being recognized as a Hero by the great God of Justice, I have two people of great talent by my side, one with great experience in real combat and the other who has a wise mind able to advise me in moments of doubt.

My life is blessed and wonderful as it is now, but this comes as a responsibility and a great expectation of others in me, I will not disappoint anyone, I will demonstrate to everyone that I am worthy of what I have with my actions.

With that in mind, I went to the Elf village to get information as the Gray Elves are known to be the best spies and information gatherers.

But what I discovered in the Elf village was something surprising to me, the Makari Kingdom I was going to investigate had been destroyed, its nobles, its army, its treasures, and even its Royal Family had disappeared within the span of a month.

Furthermore, we found that the reason the various religions sent armies to the mountain range was because of a wave of divine power that was felt there, but when the armies arrived, there was nothing there.

I could not believe that such strange events were happening on a continent that should have been far from the dangers of this world.

The energy density on this continent is very low compared to other continents, with my current strength it’s still something that doesn’t affect me, but when I strengthen myself a little more staying on this continent will start to make me feel bad.

That’s why I can’t understand how such strange things happened here and now that I found what I needed, it was time to go on a trip to this continent.

But over the course of my journey the strangeness only increased, it all started when we arrived at the Makari Kingdom and started to investigate there.

———-

Makari Kingdom:

Inside an inn in the capital.

We had just entered this inn and it was the middle of the night, after weeks of investigating this Kingdom we were already confused by everything we discovered.

As soon as we enter the same room I nod my head to Bianca who pulls out a metal cube from her storage item, then turns on the magic item which creates a powerful barrier that prevents various types of spying techniques around the room.

“Now we can talk.” (Bianca)

Sigh

“Say what? So far we have more questions than answers.” (Darcia)

“That’s not true, we just need to get everything we’ve discovered so far in order.” (I)

“After visiting all 4 major cities of this fallen Realm, what do we find in common?” (I)

“I think the giant magic circle in all 4 cities is the most important in my opinion.” (Bianca)

“Yes, but what do we know beyond that?” (I)

“The magic circle on the streets was just to collect energy, including life energy, they tried to disguise it so others wouldn’t see it, but they can’t fool me.” (Bianca)

“In addition to the maps we collected from one of the government buildings, which by the way was the only one found in these 4 cities which is already very strange, there was also another magic circle in the sewers of the cities.” (Bianca)

“The information we have from the citizens of these cities is that the sewers and the streets were made of the same material, a ‘beautiful’ black stone.” (Bianca)

“We found some fragments of this thing, but I don’t see why they would use it on the streets.” (Darcia)

“Because this is the result of a forbidden technique that uses the blood of mages to create a resistant magic conduit, this is a very evil thing to do.” (Bianca)

“But all that black stone disappeared, according to the people, someone brute force it out of the streets at great speed.” (I)

“What do we know about the sewer magic circle?” (I) π“«π“­π“Έπ“‹π“οΌŽπ“¬π“Έπ“‚

“Nothing, the sewers are destroyed and the only map we found of them only shows a part of it, which was enough to discover that it was another large scale magic circle.” (Bianca)

“So all we can assume is that the magic circle in the streets was supposed to collect energy by sacrificing the townspeople and send it to the sewer magic circle to activate, right?” (I)

“Yes, but we’re not sure what its purpose is.” (Bianca)

“What else do we know about what happened in the 4 cities?” (I)

“The disappearance of the Nobles, the employees of government buildings and the treasures on their properties.” (Darcia)

“As far as we know it was the same in all the cities, in a single night they all disappeared without a trace.” (Darcia)

“Not even their bodies were found.” (Darcia)

“But how can they do that across an entire city without attracting anyone’s attention?” (I)

“I can only imagine that they were a large number of assassins, they must have attacked everywhere at the same time and taken the bodies so as not to leave any traces of their way of fighting or killing.” (Darcia)

“We know that in two cities the citizens didn’t even realize what happened until it was too late.” (I)

“Also, there were destroyed places that looked strange at first.” (I)

“I know what they were, I found the remains of tunnels in certain places that must have belonged to the government with my magic, I couldn’t enter, but I used a Monster Tamer to get a sample of what was there.” (Bianca)

“With my knowledge of alchemy, I was able to discover it was drugs.” (Bianca)

“There was a rumor that a lot of drugs were coming out of this Kingdom, but they never found any proof as far as I knew.” (Darcia)

“If they were producing drugs using government buildings, then it would be difficult to find out anything, plus it would explain how they got such a large sum of money to rebuild 3 cities of the Realms they conquered.” (I)

“But something different happened in two other cities, one was completely destroyed and no survivors were left.” (Bianca)

“And in the capital of the Makari Kingdom where we are now, these people acted during the day and made quite a mess.” (Bianca)

“The destroyed city was very strange, there were no bodies or blood of anyone, but the state of the city shows that there was a full-scale battle.” (Darcia)

Sigh

“That city is a mystery to me.” (I)

“I felt strange in that city, it was like I wasn’t entering a place that didn’t belong to me.” (Bianca)

“Besides I felt that place had already been judged, I think some powerful priest went there before us.” (Bianca)

“He must have gone to give peace to the souls of the people who died there.” (I)

“We’re not sure if they all died, but that would be the best explanation.” (Darcia)

“But from the order of the attacks we can assume that the capital was the last, the destroyed city must have been the previous one.” (Darcia)

“So they changed their way of attacking so they wouldn’t make the same mistake as the destroyed city?” (I)

“I suspect so, the citizens said that a monster appeared in the middle of the city scaring everyone out of the city, but there are no marks of a large monster moving in the square where he was seen.” (Darcia)

“Were they forcing people to evacuate, maybe trying to save people?” (I)

“That would be my guess too.” (Bianca)

“If we follow that line of reasoning, then the Royal Family was also involved, we also have reports of explosions happening in the sky that day, some people saw it.” (Darcia)

“A battle in the sky…” (I)

“They’re also said to have seen a Dragon heading for the clouds at the end, but it might be like the monster they used before, a distraction to retreat.” (Darcia)

“It would make sense, but why hasn’t anyone announced anything about this?” (I)
