Chapter 1
A New Beginning
During the final moments of the popular game Yggdrasil a young player, Miura Tadase aka. Fukitsuna Sonzai (Sinister Existence), with his companion also a Pleiades, Nadia Wildfang Foxtrot, doing hunting near their territory of the Ainz Ooal Gown Guild.
Nadia, my first companion, is a werewolf girl with white hair, purple eyes, a pale skin, wearing silver light-battle armor with a black cloth under her armor, leather bags that hold various items like potions, poison, and other things. She was mostly a rogue type fighter but sometimes she likes to use heavy gauntlets or special short daggers when she likes to be personal.
I am a Greater Doppelgänger of Level 100, wearing a dark purple robe, under a dark steel armor but sometimes I, kind of change to a light armor or heavy ones, because I am a hybrid fighter that can change between mage and warrior or more, but I liked mostly mage because of the range. To hide from human races I use a jester mask, being a white black mask. But now like I said before, I was wearing a heavy armor like because of hunting that we were doing.
With my faithful staff, among others, the [Staff of Deceiver], a simple silver staff with tribal patterns in black, an ebony gem place at the top of the staff with three claws around the gem.
"Pheew, this should be enough." I exhaled a breath of relief after getting a grand amount of monster loot. "Guess I should reunite with Momonga before the game ends."
I looked at Nadia, stood still, sheathing her weapons just as she is now following me around as a companion. Nevertheless, why do I speak alone? They do not interact with players so there isn't much of a conversation.
I was just returning to the Guild with Nadia following me from behind like any companions. There was just silence as we were returning to the guild. Guess the customization I made that she was serious to which would bring harm to her master.
But anyway, playing Yggdrasil and meeting players such as me, a heteromorphic race, making the greatest Guild of the world comes to an end. Guess racism between races doesn't compare for which the real world happens during daily days.
Sigh… I'm maybe overthinking that… this wasn't just the end of this fantasy world. Maybe… we could all meet again once Yggdrasil II appears so once we can become the one proud guild of Ainz Ooal Gown.
But then again, we'll have to wait for how long before the game starts with their developing from the core to being once again the game we all dream.
I open my console menu watching the countdown of the game. I couldn't even return in time to say goodbye my guild leader or anyone else. Sorry leader, it seems that I won't see you last time in your avatar.
I almost felt sad until I looked at the time of the game coming to an end. I closed my eyes thinking the server would close and then glancing with my eyes at the 'real' world…
But that never happened at the moment.
"Huh?" I blurted out watching the wild scenery, feeling the breeze of the wind… Wait… feel? Did the programmers of Yggdrasil lie to us players to work on an upgrade of the game? No, no, they wouldn't lie to their customers at all. But what I was thinking right now was… how?
I looked now at my gloved hands… Why was I still in my avatar? Did something happen to the game? I look at myself glancing that I was still in my character's outfit and all!
Now that I think about it… why did I think this outfit was cool? I look like a fool right now.
"Lord Fukitsuna." An unfamiliar female voice called from behind.
I turn back to see that Nadia was closer than the system granted them to stand. And wait… did she ever talk like that? I only heard them talk during fights to cast their skills.
"Lord Fukitsuna, are you alright?" She asked tilting her head.
I didn't think it was possible, but is it happening right now?
Did I get fucking Isekai-ed into Yggdrasil? No, no, stop thinking like that Miura. You ain't some kind of character written by somebody in front of his or her computer. What kind of idiot would think that I, among all, be Isekai-ed into this world?
But… watching Nadia in front of me, did I got transferred here?
"N-Nadia…?" I said with a slight surprise.
"Yes, my lord?" She tilted her head with a curious expression. "Is something I am needed?"
What in the fucking God's name am I doing? Am I talking to one of my creations like a normal person? Wait, am I? No, no, no time to think right now about that.
She seems to be confused, maybe of how I am acting right now… Yeah, I should put up as her master with a cool mind.
I clean my throat trying to compose myself and looking at her with a dignified expression, though the mask wasn't helping much. "Nadia, it seems that we are right now in an unusual situation."
Nadia put a serious expression as her body tensed ready to fight off an unknown enemy. "What situation are you speaking about, Milord?"
"I do think that we were transported far away from our Guild by some unknown enemy." I mused with a serious tone. "I do not know about our situation nor know their motives but we should be prepared."
"I do not understand what you're saying, Milord. But you're right; I can't feel any of our people of Nazarick near."
I nodded getting what she was saying. So not only I'm alone with Nadia but I don't even know if my Guild is here or any player; even when I tried to open my consoles, there wasn't anything in front of me. And even if it was a bug, the game would pop up something to warn the players.
But… if I am here, WHAT AM I FUCKING GOING TO DO NOW?! IN THIS KIND OF SITUATION I CAN'T EVEN GO BACK TO MY WORLD! OR WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN WITH MY BODY! IS IT GOING TO ROT?! SOMEBODY IS GOING TO LOOK FOR ANSWERS?! I DON'T EVEN FUCKING KNOW IF I AM EVER GOING TO RETURN AT ALL!
As I am fucking blowing my mind off, I am still a dignified member of Ainz Ooal Gown so I must put a calm demeanor in front of her. For now, I'll have to learn about this world to get information and everything else.
(Few minutes later)
The two of us decided at least to look for someone to know better about this world. Until Nadia sniffed blood not far from us and went straight to the scent.
When we arrived, we saw a group of bandits fighting another group of soldiers or knights from afar.
"Milord, it seems that those bandits are raiding those people." Nadia pointed her finger at them. "What should we do? Leave them be?"
Humans; as the default race Yggdrasil startup. Many players choose because of what they are but some others choose other races and the least one, such as me, chooses to be a heteromorphic being.
But looking at them, Nadia was right. There is a group, dozens of bandits, attacking a carriage while the least of them, wearing some kind of armor is protecting it.
Are they royalty perhaps? I don't know, for now, I could get them to help me to know about this world.
"Hm, in our case, we shouldn't help inferior people." I started. "But in this bizarre situation, we should at least know more about this world. So, Nadia, you bring their attention to us as I prepare myself with a spell." Nadia nodded as she ran first to the bandits.
As Nadia was approaching them, one of the bandits had noticed her.
"Hey, there is a chick coming at us." He said to one of his colleagues.
"She doesn't look like a normal one. But... boys, capture her." Another one but much bigger spoke with a smirk, drooling on his imagination once they get her.
Three of the bandits went straight to Nadia with their swords and as they swung their swords to scare her, Nadia suddenly disappeared.
"H-Hey! Where did she go?" The first bandit was surprised at the sudden disappearance of the chick.
"She couldn't have gone far." The second one said, looking around.
Before they could even notice the third one said with a shocking tone.
"H-HEY THERE SHE I-!" But it was too late; the two bandits were beheaded as the third one was left speechless and shocked.
"WHAT THE?!" The bandit leader was intrigued. He then noticed someone else up to the hill. "HEY, THERE IS ANOTHER ONE! ARCHERS! KILL HIM!" He ordered, pointing at me.
The archers were preparing their bows and arrows.
Guess by looking at them, they were between Level 10 and 20. Nothing compared to what I am at all.
The bandit archers let their arrows fly toward me as I simply looked at them without worry. Why do you ask? Because I'm a Supreme Being of Nazarick and I have seen my battles against other players and wars… this doesn't phase me at all.
"[Razor Blade]!" I swing my arm creating a compressed blade toward the arrows, cutting them all on air.
"Wh-What the?" The bandit archers were shocked.
Though I was simply testing if my arsenal of skills was working well but right now there wasn't anything wrong with them and they were working just as I remembered during my gameplays.
The bandit leader growled at the misfortune which cursed under his breath.
"Damn those sorcerers with their magic. If bows and arrows don't work, go personal! Ignore those pesky and weak guards and KILL HIM!" He ordered the other bandits.
The bandits that were fighting the weakened knights or guards left them to get me.
"Who… who are they?" One of the many guards left wondered looking at their mysterious saviors. Inside the carriage, a young lady glanced from the window at their gallant heroes.
Watching the remaining bandits, I can see that there are 20 bandits including the leader outnumbering the 10 guards. At least, they can take a breather from their fight.
"Lord Fukitsuna," Nadia said standing next to me. "What are your biddings against those fools?"
"They are nothing but obstacles on our mission and given that those fools are underestimating us, we should simply give them a lesson," I stated glaring at them.
"Shall I remove them with force?" She asked with an evil tone, holding her daggers on hand.
I waved at her in dismissal. "Don't. I'll show them the difference between our power and them. Get behind me." I ordered just as Nadia nodded and stood behind me.
The bandits continued charging at us fully intent on killing us or yet teaching us a lesson, though that wasn't that they could accomplish easily.
On my hands, a small ball of fire emerged and pointed it at the bandits.
The bandit leader noticing the magic immediately stopped just as the small percent of them stopped just like their leader. The other 'cannon-fodders' continued charging without care.
"[Solar Incineration]"
The small fireball ejected from my hand and as it continued making a path toward the bandits, it started growing its size.
The bandits that were running stopped the moment they saw the fireball grow and were shocked that they weren't given the time to dodge in time with instant death.
The explosion took a grand scale which created a smokescreen blocking any view from it.
After some minutes passed, the smoke started scattering letting us see the carnage or what was left of them. Ashes spread on the ground where the bandits were once standing.
I may have overdone it.
"Wh-What a monster…" One of the remaining bandits whimpered in terror.
"What are we going to do?"
The bandit leader gritted his teeth at the carnage at what the sorcerer just did moments ago and pointed at me with his battle-ax. "SHUT THE HELL UP YOU INGRATS! JUST KILL THEM!" He commanded in rage.
The bandits having no choice to disobey his order, charged against their will to kill me and Nadia. But that had them backfired and was rather stupid of them because as soon as they were closer to us, heads started rolling on the floor by Nadia.
15 of the bandits were incinerated by me and 4 were beheaded by Nadia. I was not amused at all. Given that I had years of experience in fantasy battles, they were carrying with a stupid plan to outnumber us and where did that end up.
But now that I'm thinking about it, I couldn't believe that I had just killed another person or well… people as in plural. If I were to be doing what I was doing at the moment, being a human, I would have vomited or panicked or shivered or something without caring. I didn't even feel disgusted to see the blood, the carnage, the gore or death.
Maybe now that I'm a heteromorphic race, I could even feel anything against them at all. Even though I'm a Doppelganger, it feels less disgust but more amusement right now.
"What in hell's name are you?!" Finally, the bandit leader growled bringing me out of my thoughts. His expression still made him furious but the emotion he was carrying betrayed his shaking body and constant sweating gave the idea that two mysterious strangers obliterated his entire group with ease.
"Hmph... There is no need to spell my name those who reek in the garbage." I spat menacingly, and as soon as I ended to speak, I snapped my fingers commanding Nadia to eliminate the last pest.
"W-Wai-!" Those were his last words before Nadia slashed her knives on his neck, ending his life instantly.
"Good work, Nadia." I reunited with her as the body fell backward on the floor.
"Your words humble me, Milord." She bowed. She was delighted by my words while bowing.
"What are those two..." The guards who survived spoke in awe before they cheered for the heroes who saved their lives.
As the guards cheered, the doors of the carriage opened. A well-dressed lady got out of it and the guards notice her and stand firm opening a path to the heroes.
"Strangers, thank you for your assistance. If you weren't here, god knows what would have happened to us." A young lady thanked us while bowing.
"It's nothing much. You people were lucky that we were nearby." I replied, raising a hand. Nadia stood behind me, checking the dead bodies of the bandits.
"I am Kayla Naimbet Dawngor, a royal daughter of the Re-Estize Kingdom. May I know your names?" The young lady with brown long hair, green round eyes, wearing a light purple dress with different accessories and a golden necklace, introduced herself and asked.
"I am..." I paused, thinking that my name 'Lord Fukitsuna' wouldn't be agreeable and it would be suspicious. I thought hard, thinking for a name that would be perfect for a new beginning and said. "My name's Iden Mak."
*(A/N: I had to use something referring my character with Identity and Mask.)*
"Nadia. Nadia Wildfang." Nadia said with a poker face.
I was glad that between all other Pleiades, Nadia was different from them. As they despise humans as garbage, Nadia neither saw them indifferently; not amazed nor disgusted… just neutral.
"Sir Mak, Miss Wildfang, as one of the royal families of the Re-Estize Kingdom, I am thankful for your help in our dire situation." She revered herself just as the other guards did the same.
"Its fine, Miss Dawngor, I am glad that we could stop them in time," I assured her raising my hand.
"So powerful and humble but should I ask, what were you doing here before meeting our situation?" She wondered.
"We were on a journey with some of our companions but after some circumstances, we were separated so I'm looking somewhere to stay and look for them at the same time." I lied.
"Oh, it's a tragedy that you had got separated with them." She said with a regrettable tone. "Maybe I could help you. My guards and I were on our way to the kingdom but after the fight, most of my guards are wounded and tired from the battle. Maybe I could ask if you two could help us reach our destination and rest there. Its destination last at least one or two days."
Yeah, I noted that the guards were tired and injured, and some of them were with critical injuries. I can help them with that part.
"Maybe I can help your guards with their injuries," I said walking toward the injured.
Kayla maintained her mouth closed to her saviors watching at what he was going to do.
Raising both of my hands, I started with the spell. "[Close Wound] and [Fairy Invigoration]" Using both Priest and Druid spells on healing.
A white-yellowish light engulfed every guard, ridding off the injuries and closing wounds instantly. The weary guards were also the same except that their stamina was returning to their bodies.
After finishing up with the recovery magic, every guard started getting better.
"Oh dear, you know lots of magic, Sir Mak." Kayla complimented in awe.
"This is nothing, really." I shrugged.
Kayla nodded before taking her attention toward her guards.
"LISTEN UP EVERYONE! THANKS TO THESE TWO SAVIORS, WE HAVE NOW AN ALLY AND HELP TO RETURN TO OUR KINGDOM SAFELY!" She shouted giving command and morale to the guards before looking at us. "Shall we depart?" She said with the softest tone ignoring the first tone she used.
"Y-Yeah, we should." I felt my sweatdrop falling on my forehead.
Kayla nodded once again before entering into her carriage. As for us, we were given two horses from the dead bandits.
So for the next days of our journey, we eventually asked for some information about the world and all. Telling her that we were far from this part of the world and came not long before, obviously being a lie, but she had given us enough information telling us that there are three major human countries: Re-Estize Kingdom, Baharuth Empire, and the Slane Theocracy.
She didn't know much of the latter kingdoms or other ones because she was only briefed on her own kingdom's history. So at least, I could later find information on those two countries next time I get the time to look for.
It had lasted two days to arrive at our destination, where Kayla had called it E-Rantel.
Looking at the medieval era view, it was a fantasy world.
Once we had reached the entrance, Kayla peeked from her window. "Thank you two for helping us to reach here, Sir Mak, Miss Wildfang. Not for you, we wouldn't imagine what would happen to us against those bandits. Here is your reward for helping us." She handed us a sack of something, maybe coins? I don't know how much the value is in this world.
Placing the sack of coins inside my inventory without being noticed by other people's eyes, I bowed to her politely before asking. "Where can we look for a place to stay? It's our first time here so we don't know much of it."
One of the guards stepped in and pointed at the western side of the place. "You can go straight to this path and the next right, you can see an Adventure Guild and much toward you can see an Inn. I can recommend it with full mark." He recommended it.
"Alright, I'll look there. Thank you." He said. Before I could even start walking, I stopped and turned back to Kayla. "Before I forget, I would recommend not telling about us to your parents, Miss Dawngor."
"Wh-Why?" Kayla asked.
"We wouldn't want to meddle into some political or other nobles' attention as sometimes it isn't mostly good for people like us."
"B-But I could at least tell my parents of you and that you wouldn't want anything against other nobles."
Thinking of what she just told me, she was kind of telling the truth but meddling before knowing what is with my situation ain't many things I could spare.
"Charming but no, I won't feel good to reject when a damsel is asking us for help. But that would require less of our time to look for our companions." I said lowering my head. "In time, I'll spare my time to help you when I have an income."
Kayla hummed thoughtfully putting a finger on her chin for a moment. After a few seconds, her eyes seem to spark an idea. "I see. It is quite regrettable that I can't help you much. I hope to see you next time during one of my spare times, Sir Mak."
With that, she had marched with her guards to her estate.
"Hm, it went better than I thought," I said to nobody else and started walking toward the Inn.
"Lord Fukitsune," Nadia called. "Do you think that woman is planning something?"
I started recalling the moment Miss Dawngor had a glint on her eyes or something.
"Hm, who knows? This isn't something we can handle with difficulty, Nadia." I said coolly. "We are members of the Ainz Ooal Gown so nothing can stop us."
"So majestic words from you, Milord, I am quite content with your determination." She said bowing slightly. "What should we do now, Milord?"
"For now? We should get accommodated and find our way of income. We can't survive with this amount of money she had given us." I said motioning with a shake of the said money. "We should at least get to work where those guards mentioned; The Adventure Guild."
Nadia kept quiet looking ahead as we continued walking to search for the Inn those guards mentioned.
Just before she stopped me and asked me a question.
"Lord Fukitsune, what do you think of humans?"
I stopped, looked at the sky and thought about the answer to it. I am a human though in this body it would be was as I am a Doppelganger, able to change the form of any being with ease as this is one of the early skills of the race: [Mimic].
So to speak, I was still in my Doppelganger form only that I was still using a mask so those people assumed that I was one. For Nadia, she had hidden her ears so they couldn't have seen her beast ears at all.
But moving back where she had asked me something about what I think about humans, maybe an honest answer would be better.
"Well, Nadia, humans apart of us being, Demi-Humans and Heteromorphic, humans are scared of the unknown so they battle against them to challenge their fears. Not only that but fighting against us gives them the only thing that unites them, not for anything they are simple packs of rats hidden in their fears."
Well, I didn't think of anything else to explain to her. Just going to the flow I think.
"I see. I understand, Milord." She nodded sagely.
"We should go toward the Inn to plan our upcoming plans."
We continued our way toward the Inn and eventually managed to arrive. The sign had some kind of image of a boar inside a circle, though the worst of things was that I couldn't even read the language. This sucks.
(Inside the Inn)
Stepping inside the Inn, we noticed that there were various customers inside eating and drinking their hearts out. Some of them looked like civilians but there were some adventurers by the gear they were wearing.
Ignoring the rest, we walked toward the manager.
"Welcome to the 'Boar's Lair', what can I get you two?" The man in front of me was big in a way that had brown messy hair with a thick beard.
"We need a room for a night and food," I said. "How much is it?"
"Staying for the night costs 2 silver coins and food is 5 bronze coins." The manager answered.
Handing him one gold coin, he gave us the exchange of 7 silver coins and 5 bronze coins.
So in a way, the monetary value of this world is like this:
1 Bronze Coin / 10 Bronze Coins = 1 Silver Coin
1 Silver Coin / 10 Silver Coins = 1 Gold Coin
1 Gold Coin / 10 Gold Coins = 1 Platinum Coin
(A/N: I know it is stupid but hey, some people do this on mangas.)
"Thanks."
"You two can wait in one of those tables and wait for the food." He said pointing at one of the empty tables.
I nodded and went to get our seats. Though in reality, I don't even know how Doppelgangers eat, I can simply try.
Wonder if my leader were to be here, could he even eat?
Huh, who knows?
Nadia and I seated next to each other and waited for a few minutes before one of the waitresses came with our dinner.
Deciding that I should at least try the food, I used [Mimic] to change into a human form. I made myself into a young middle-aged man in his early 20s, tan skin, blue eyes, a scar in my left eye and right lip, a thin beard and a long black hair undercut with a small ponytail on the back head to blend among humans.
I took my mask off and began eating. Sure it was the same method of eating when I was in my real body but now that I'm living like this, it ain't that bad. The taste was good as the meat was tender and juicy, even the soup tasted good.
Just then, I notice Nadia looking at me.
"Is there something on my face?" I asked blithely as I lower my fork.
"Th-There is nothing, Milord." She stuttered lowering her gaze on her plates. I think I saw something red on her face, must be my imagination.
I simply shrugged before continuing eating with my heart content. Who would think that I could again the taste of food and drink, this was heavenly!
After eating our food, we went toward our room and started being serious.
"Alright, after tasting some human food, we should now plan what we are going to do from now on."
Nadia sat down on another bed. "Lord Fukitsune, what are your plans?"
I cupped up my chin with my hand and thought about it. We don't know if there are other players in this world, and even if they were, we couldn't even know if they are friendly or hostiles.
There were cases of PKs when we played but if there would be players like that, what could happen to those that die?
Many options and so little information… I should just start by getting information on selected places or people and get an income for it.
Yeah, first off we should have a way to get incomes since money talks in every language in existence.
"We should first look a way to get money, Nadia." I took out the bag of coins and shook it. "From what I counted, we have at least 19 gold coins, 7 silver coins, and 5 bronze coins. Even if there had some income of money, we don't even know the world's history so we should at least get information, not letting our ignorance subdue our intelligence."
Nadia nodded comprehending what I was getting at.
"So I plan to work in the Adventure Guild for our income and after getting enough money, we should get more information." I finished, sighing by thinking that I could at least process this new world.
"I understand, Milord." Nadia crossed before looking at the window. "Should I get the first turn to watch if any intruders come, Lord Fukitsune?"
"It's alright, Nadia. I can simply use [Alarm] the moment those invaders that have bad motives to harm us. We should at least get enough sleep for the night." I stated which Nadia nodded.
We took our gears and put it in our inventories so without more pauses; we got into our bedsheets and started getting to sleep.
As I laid down watching the ceiling, I had many things on my mind thinking… if there is going to be a way to return.
But… do I want to return to Earth?
I left home to study abroad in acting, I work over-time in my part-time job to get my food on my table and my life was repetitive daily. I couldn't stand the normal life, I wanted to explore, go to adventures and live freely; and that was the only thing that I enjoyed… playing Yggdrasil. The fantasy world was exactly the way I could have wanted to live, no more struggles, no more restrictions, no more being chained to a repetitive life just because it was the REAL world.
Sigh… I don't even know if I could still want to be Miura Tadase than Futkitsune Sonzai, one of the 41 Supreme Beings of the Ainz Ooal Gown; the Prodigy Student.
Why was I called 'The Prodigy'? That was because being a Doppelganger had a hidden passive that only those people that reached level 75 could see.
The skill was called [Mind of the Prodigy] getting me access to learn other races, classes, and skills from others if by chance I get to learn from them.
I remember when I learned about that passive skill, I went frenzy on learning every skill from others' arsenal of skills. There was much to learn and much to test them on the field.
But after something happened, I get to be part of the Major Guilds for Heteromorphics; The Ainz Ooal Gown.
Recalling all those memories was good for my mind to ease the present. I couldn't even change that from others.
Well, I should get my rest for tomorrow me.
So by that, my mind drifted to the darkness of dreams.
(The Next Day)
After getting breakfast and putting on our gears for the day, we marched toward the Adventure Guild to work for our income.
Remembering the route that we took to get into our Inn, we managed to locate the Adventure Guild. Nothing out of ordinary if I was honest, big place, people walking in and out, parties of different classes to work with, yeah, I'm going to love this world.
"This is it," I said looking at the sign, which I can't still comprehend the language. Yeah, I should get started with that. I then turn to my beast companion. "Nadia, remember not to start a fight unless it is necessary, alright?"
"I understand." She nodded.
When we entered the front gates, we noticed that various adventurers were chatting, lollygagging, etc. There were others seated watching from afar of near trying to figure out on us.
As for me, I wasn't even fazed by them.
I let it slip a little of killing intent showing that I'm more capable of dealing with them.
The room started to become colder as it kept letting my killing intent do my work. Some started to cower as they couldn't handle my KI. Others struggled but put a tough face, though I could notice some of them with a nervous expression and sweating. And the least of them was simply staring at me without fazing, though I could someone feel that they were kind of amused.
Ignoring the weaklings, I walked, with Nadia behind, toward the front desk with one of the workers in front of though she was a little pale. Guilty as charged.
"I have come here with my companion to sign as adventurers," I stated.
"Y-Yes… I would be in a moment. If you please, could wait for a minute I'd gladly give your tags."
I nodded waiting for a few minutes before the female receptionist took out two copper medals to us.
"This is your identification of being Copper Rank Adventurers." She said handing us said medals.
"Excuse me, what are these ranks if I may ask?" I asked curiously.
"Yes, of course, the Adventure Guild has various members of adventurers divided with different ranks: Copper – Iron – Silver – Gold – Platinum – Mithril – Orichalcum – Adamantite." She informed. "As for each category of jobs depend on the strength of the adventurer or group."
"Hm, I see." I hummed lowly, consuming the knowledge.
"Is there anything else that I can help?" She asked dutifully.
"Since I just got started could you please look for the hardest quest? I am quite capable of magic as my companion is versatile with her skills."
"I understand. Wait over there while I look for it if you please." She answered. Nodding, we went toward empty seats to wait for her.
As I was waiting, various adventurers were ogling us to test or analyze how convenient we were. As if they could do anything against me, or did they even care what I just did minutes ago? Gosh, human's stupidity at its finest.
This kind of thing isn't my thing; I would simply go with whatever the highest members of the Guild tell me to do such as gather ingredients, material or better yet raid others Guilds or dungeons. What my Guild Leader would be doing right now if he was here? He was the one, who gave me orders and instructions. I can't even understand why he even wanted to be the leader…
(Meanwhile in another Location)(Maybe you should know)
"ATCHOO!"
A mysterious character sneezed. He was wearing a big purple-black robe while holding a golden staff with snakes-shaped holders that hold different spheres representing elements.
"Momonga-sama, are you ill?" A succubus asked in concern about her leader's health. "Do you want me to look after you?"
"It's alright Albedo." The skeleton lich identified as Momonga reassured to his servants. "I may have gotten a cold or something."
"Does an undead can get sick?" A male arch devil wearing an orange suit, a red necktie, black gloves, and circle-shaped eyeglasses thought-wondered. "I'll have to check with the doctors if the undead can even get sick…"
(Back to the Protagonist)
I don't know how many minutes I have been waiting for the quest. The place didn't even have a damn clock to know the hour. And such luck to not have a damnable clock on hand if such thing as time would be so boring.
Nadia was sitting silently with her eyes closed. Many people could think that she was dozing off or thinking about something but for me that is different. She is focused on gathering information with her ears to hear other adventurers' chatting.
Looking at the receptionist, she had finally had looked for the hardest quest she could find and before she could even call us someone had decided to barge the place and some knights started entering to make a path.
A silhouette appeared at the door and started walking elegantly inside. We could notice that it was someone familiar, the only person we recognized just days ago. One day ago. Kayla Naimbet Dawngor stood between the two paths of knights.
She seemed to look someone around though I knew who she was looking for. Once she had scanned the room and looked at the person or people she was looking for, she pointed at the people, meaning both me and Nadia.
"There you are!"
Sigh… What am I gotten into?
TO BE CONTINUED
I have made major changes such as if you noticed, to those old readers, that I changed the name of the MC. Being first 'Dark Identity' to 'Fukitsune Sonzai' since it sounded cooler. But the human name stays as it is.
