Grand Trial

= [You have been given three choices for a Grand Trial:

* Destroy the Red Sword Gang

* Kill the Head of Origin Mana Bandit

* Subjugate the Thunder Python of the Black Swamp] =

Now, which mission should I pick?

There's another good thing about these missions. The missions they gave to each people of the Cavern do not coincide with one another. Each mission is unique to the person in order to test their limitations.

The mission is hard and it was something that normal people of the same level cannot complete. But that is just it, this so-called Grand Trial is something used to weed out the useful ones from the trash.

Those who survive this must have good senses and fighting prowess, luck will also play a role. But that is not something that can be taken into account when I come to the picture.

I sigh at the thought and in the end, pick up all three missions altogether. These missions can be accepted without limitations and the more you complete the more rewards you can have.

These three places are based on the same Regions anyway, these three are located in the Region of Lina. I sigh once more and accepted the missions, my time limit, three months, and in these three months, I only have to complete a single mission in order to go back and earn a reward.

But I now have three months to see the world and become free. Although I have no place to visit or a place I want to go to, the world is an open road and in my journey, I should be able to see the places that can tug the strings of my heart.

[ Accepting the Missions: Completed!

The Map will be provided in thirty minutes, you can ask for supplies before heading out. The Blue Crown shall provide you with anything you need. ] =

I went to sleep shortly after and the next day, Viryon said his farewells and left with a smile on his face. I sometimes forget he is an elf before his attitude, but it sure is nice to have someone like him around.

In two days everyone has already left and I am the only one around. I don't have a reason to be sticking around this long, but I suppose I am feeling hesitant to leave a place that I have already called home. The homes I have called my own before were destroyed, will this one survive? I don't really know.

On the fifth day, I left and because there is no such thing as spatial transportation. I was picked up by an Airship and brought to the Region of Lisa on the West.

The Region of Lisa is the West of the Titan Continent [Thalius]. The Cavern is in the Continent of Thalius and the Region of West is the smallest of the fifteen regions of the Continent.

I was dropped at the border of the Lisa Region and then began to walk with my crutch. I cast a spell on myself t make moving easier. It took me two days of traveling but I finally managed to come to my first destination, [Red Beet Town].

I entered the town after paying the fine of fifty credits (Yes, it is highway robbery), and went to a certain establishment. I went around the town which on a side note is actually decent looking. But as I went into the more frivolous place, it was some part of the town known as the Red Light District where prostitutes gather and attract men to have sex with them.

Lethias was with me eyeing the ladies like some old man was telling me.

= "Xir, you also need to experience the pleasures of a woman to strengthen your mind against charm spells. After the meeting, you are required to go into one of these establishments and learn." =

I just nodded my head and went on with the road. I stopped in front of a bookstore that is in the last row of the buildings in the red light district.

I entered and was greeted by an Old Man.

= "I need a certain book." =

= "What is the book that you need, young man?" =

= "The 'Traveler's Guide to the Regalius Pass', I have ordered it three months ago." =

= "Oh, you are going to the Regalius Pass? Then do you know of the Black Red

Ghoul?" =

= "A Ghoul is not a problem in the face of supreme might." =

= "Well, I have warned you… the book is at the back." = The old man stroke his non-existent beard and said, = "Follow me." =

I followed his way and in the back of the bookstore, I was given information written on paper. It was the name of my targets and the map of their base. I left after thanking the old man.

The people of the Blue Crown are spread out and the bookstore and the old man were one of these people. After the bookstore, it was time to experience what is called the nightlife.
