Chapter 11
Woosh! Woosh!
The mountain became larger and larger as the closer I get there.
That's surprisingly big huh... Wonder if there's a town there?
It took me about a day without resting, despite having the Wind Walker Lv. 5
As I got closer, I suddenly felt a gust of energy to my right.
Deciding to ignore it, I simply went on my way.
However, another gust of energy was sent to me, as if calling me to go there.
Pfft, as if. I then decided to ignore it once more.
As I was to go, ANOTHER wave was sent to me and this time, it was stronger.
Okay, Now you're just creeping me off. Im out of here.
Without having second thoughts, I simply went on my way.
As I activated my Wind Walker, the winds suddenly went off course and started dragging me towards the source of energy.
What the-
I immediately cancelled the skill but now it seems that a different skill was being used on me.
Fuck!
I tried struggling and tail whipping, but what exactly am I gonna hit?
Sigh...
I just simply gave up and decided to hear what this stalker wants.
[ How rude. ]
Huh? Oh, Im already here.
Once again, another unfamiliar voice was speaking to me. This one was a rough and deep voice, maybe a sick old man?
[ So it is as they say, quite a rude and haughty mortal huh? ]
The winds stopped mid air and suddenly slammed me down on the ground.
THUD!
"Oof."
Son of a bitch. That hurt!
[ Hmph, befitting of your kind. ]
What?
I then realised that the winds haven't let me go yet and is forcing me to be bowing down.
I looked around and the place was just the same as any other place in the forest.
Why bring me here?
I looked in front of me, and what a saw was a statue.
It looked old and abandoned, It was a statue of a middle aged warrior in-
Roman clothes?
[ That's right mortal! Stand in awe before me! The God of Winds, Aulos! ]
You're here for a skill?
[ Huh? What? Let me guess, Gaia was your first visitor. ]
Yeah, why?
[ Hahaha... Boy, you got cheated. We Gods don't need your pitiful skills. We can simply give you the blessings if we want to. ]
I see...
[ That was a stupid move boy. By now, you must be realising how hard it is to get skills after unlocking the star upgrade option, right? ]
Yeah, But it seemed that it was easy to get some in the beginning though?
[ Let me in you on something kid. Skills were easy to get below level 10. Very easily actually, Even the simplest thing you do can become a skill.
Acquiring a skill depends on your understanding. For example, you could've gotten the skill Walk but you didn't think of it as a skill, did you?
Skills are basically usable understanding of a concept. At level 10, you got your skills because you subconsciously imagined and pictured what a skill would be. ]
... Why are you telling me this?
[ First, you didn't hear anything from me and second, you need to form a contract with me in order for me to give you my blessing. ]
A scroll appeared in front of me and opened itself up.
-
After reading it for a while, I found out that it's basically a slave contract.
[ It really isn't though. ]
So you're telling me, become your daughter's familiar and be around here 24/7 otherwise I'll die within 5 minutes not only that but as well as follow all her requests and do my best to answer her wishes.
[ I don't see what's wrong with that. ]
Yo- Oh my... FIRST OFF, as if it wasn't bad enough that Im still stuck as a fucking fox with four tails! and now you're telling me to be an actual pet?! bow down and follow orders like a good dog?
[ How dare you! It should be your honor to guard a lineage of a God! ]
Haa? Is that so? Get off your high horse! Last time I checked, you guys are the one who needs me. Besides, I thought Gods weren't supposed to tamper with the affairs of this world?
[ She was the one who kept praying! Besides, she had the figure of a goddess! How could I not?! ]
This? this is a God?
[ You ungrateful little- ]
No.
[ Huh?! ]
If that's all then, thanks for the information. I'll be going now.
[ What? Hmph, Go ahead then mortal. ]
Alright, bye~
The force holding me was long gone so I simply started walking away.
I walked until I can no longer see the statue then immediately bursted away with Walking Wind.
Woosh!
I was basically already flying in the air whenever I use this skill so I was already a few km away.
Self important pricks... Well out of sight, out of mind.
I'll just forget that ever happened.
woosh...
What's that?
...
I hear something extremely fast following behind me.
WOOSH!
The hell?
I looked beside me and then I saw the roman statue actually chasing after me.
[ H-HOLD IT MORTAL!!!! ]
What the...
I poured more mana to the skill and started gaining speed.
However, when I looked behind, he was right behind me already.
[ I SAID HOLD IT!!!! ]
What do you want with me?!
Panicking, I started pouring more and more mana into the skill until eventually, I noticed that my mana was below 60000.
I slowed down and then landed, soon the statue did the same and landed beside me.
[ Y- haa.... You... haa... Finally stopped. ]
Why do you sound tired?
[ Well... It takes serious will power to manifest my thoughts into this statue. ]
Does it have to be that statue?
[ Don't question me mortal. Anyway, alright fine, tell me your conditions. However, I'll only take a deal that benefits my daughter. ]
Hmmm.. Alright then.
How about I guard your daughter for three years.
[ Seven years. ]
Four.
[ Six! ]
Four and a half.
[ Five and a half! ]
No tha-
[ Five years! ]
Hmmm... alright.
[ Hmph, such an unreasonable mortal. However, at this rate, you won't even be capable to guard my daughter. ]
Why is that?
[ The Demon Lord is already at above level 800 and is continuously rising. As soon as he hit 1000, he'll start his conquest. ]
SERIOUSLY?!
[ Yes mortal, That is true. You have about 4 years before the conquest starts. ]
How and where the heck did that bitch even get that much exp?!
[ Hmph, although it is unadvisable, You can go to the
For levels 80 to 160, head to the < Golden Desert. >, There would be a lot of earth monsters there.
For levels 150 to 230, head to
Seriously, are you my schedule planner? You literally just gave me a list of farming spots. Does this look like a game to you?
[ I don't have time to joke around with you.
Seriously?
[ I strongly advise you to meet up with the Hero as soon as possible, You'll understand why once you do meet him.
Also, there are a couple of ruins there in which boss class monsters would spawn, so I suggest you defeat them with the Hero. Bosses usually give an extreme amount of exp and rare items, so do your best.
Bear this in mind, there is something unusual going on in this world. Celestial beings are tampering in a very bad way.
One is that the Demon King's unusually fast growth. Normally, It would take about 20 years before it could even reach his level now which is in 800s.
We're still investigating the cause of this massive growth abnormality, as well as the predator bear sent out to eliminate you.
That was no coincidence nor unfortunate accident since predator bears could only be found at the deep blue sea.
Someone or something is out there trying to eliminate you and possibly, the hero as well.
So expect the unexpected.
As for the contract, It'll be in effect after the conquest starts. ]
Wow. So not only did this turn into a grinding game, but as well as an assassination game in which we're the hunted.
[ Indeed. Although nothing unusual should happen for now since it takes a while for Celestials to meddle on the affairs of mortal world. ]
Hmmm... alright. However, grant me two favours.
[ Hmph! Fine. Speak fast mortal, I don't have much time left. ]
Crack!
Hm? it seems that the statue started cracking and crumbling, I guess he's telling the truth.
[ I am. ]
Alright. First, give me the skill to turn into a human and second, tell me the location of the Hero.
[ Damn it... Haven't I already done enough for you?! ]
Crack! Crack!
Hurry up or the contract goes poof.
[ A-alright you greedy bastard! I can't give you the skill directly so I can tell you where you can get it.
You can get the < Human Transformation > Skill if you win a favour from the divine witch at the
As for the Hero, he's at < Saint Laurent > Town. It's quite near, I'll grant you the wind's direction for one week, it'll lead you directly at him.
Now sign the contract! ]
Crack! Crack! Crack!
I see.. alright, alright.
I punch my paw on the contract and it left a mark, a paw print to be exact.
The magical scroll then rolled up and disappeared just like that.
[ Phew.. Finally. ]
Yeah.. Finally..
Wait, I forgot. What was your daughter's name?
Crack! Crack! Crack!
[ Oh! I forgot as well, my daughter's name is- ]
Crack! Crack! Cra- Shatter!
The statue crumbled to pieces as the statue was overloaded with celestial energy.
Rumble... rumble....
With that, the meeting with the wind god ended.
