” Ding! Host slays the abyss demon! ”
” Ding! Host earns 1000 RP! ”
” Ding! Host is rewarded with 1000 SP! ”
” Ding! Host levels up! ”
” Ding! Host enters the first refinement stage!”
” Ding! Host…
” Wait!~~~ ”
All of a sudden, Mark stood up only to spot that he was no longer present in the wretched mansion he visioned.
He found himself to be present in a spacious room, which was more decorated and more fancier than the one he once rested
His wounds were patched up perfectly, and he was standing on top a soft bed, encrypted with a potent healing array. Which was apparently treating his inner wounds.
” Lie down! ”
” Your internals are yet to be healed! ” Cela who was present at the scene bellowed out before rushing towards him.
” Ah!~~ ”
As if all his internals are set in a rapid alarm, his body pained sharply, which made him fall back to the same bed he rose from.
” Twelve hours… no, it might take a day or two at this rate to heal your wounds! ”
Cela who was examining his internals spelled out with a worried face.
She then continued stating ” I don’t know what forbidden magic you used to save that girl, but it made your body pathetic.
Had I been a minute late, probably… your body would had turned to a cripple by now! ”
” So… never use that thing again.
Would there be an another cela like me to save you again? ”
She was particularly a bit harsh on mark, but it was for his own well being to begin with.
” How’s he? Is he going to be alright? ”
Xena who just came to the scene had exclaimed out with a worrisome face.
” Going to be alright? ”
Cela raised her voice a little, and was a little bit hostile towards Xena.
” This boy had all his internals damaged, bones broken and cultivation being almost crippled!
” How is he going to be alright? Good thing that he’s an abnormal mana user, if not for that his life would had been expired to begin with! ”
Without paying any regard to her nobility, cela was scolding her as a superior.
She belonged to the church, and even empress had to be on guard while facing the almighty pope.
So when she had the title of a devine lady, who was top in hierarchy, almost a few ranks below Pope.
Does she still have to pay respect to Xena, when her mood was not right?
” Devine lady Cela, but our… ”
” Stop! ”
Before the old captain in red robes could talk on behalf of his lady, he was ordered to stop by Xena.
” Tell me what should do? ” She asked Xena straight forwardly.
” Well… nurse him well! ” Waving her arm upwards, Cela exclaimed out.
” If not for him being an interesting kid, I wouldn’t even had exited my mansion to begin with.
Right now I had an important thing to do, I left my work half finished earlier. Hope you could give a way for this Cela to exit. ”
Bang!
Stomping her cane to the floor, she started walking out.
” Ah! I forgot this thing! ” Tossing a medicine pouch to Xena she muttered out.
” Soak it in hot water before smearing it on his wounds!
You can ignore that part, but the little struggling soul in bed would not like to continue bearing that nerve wrecking pain right? ”
” Smear the medicine? ”
” The hell! She asked princess to smear the medicine… ” The old captain in red robes cursed cela internally.
Fifteen was the right age for a nobel to get married or betrothed at the least.
Had Xena smeared the medicine with her very two hands, wouldn’t her reputation of being pure be affected from then?
* Note: ( He didn’t know what Xena had to do while they were traveling through the space creates by that crack in the void! )
” Master! let me… ” Before he could exclaim his words again, Xena bellowed ” Old dog, shut up for a second will ya? ”
” Don’t say that her adolescence had started kicking in, and a seed of love had been implanted in her heart? ”
The old captain exclaimed internally with an excited face, if his hypothesis was correct, this man growling in pain might be the key to change the character of Xena.
Xena then walked straight towards mark, soaked the medicines in water bath, before smearing the pasted mixture over the bear skin of him thoroughly.
” Ah!~~ ”
All of a sudden, Mark’s temperature started rising sharply, his body was turning red with steams of vapours exiting out the openings on his face.
The nerves in his body were bulging like thin pipes over his entire body.
He was struggling hard over the soft bed, and grabbed the bed sheet in his palms tightly by the nerve wracking pain.
Black steams of vapour was comming out the pores in his skin, which slowly darkened the room he was present currently.
Put!
As if all things that happened earlier was a mere illusion to begin with, mark once again fallen back asleep, with the black gas which dissipated in air, shortly following it.
” The medicine seems to work well! ” the old captain exclaimed out excitingly.
” Old dog why are you excited? ” Xena asked up being puzzled.
He was her servant, worrying about her might be explainable, but getting excited after spotting a stranger get healed, she was confused a little.
” Princess, when the master is getting healed wouldn’t the servant of his be excited about it? ”
Raising his eye brows a little, the old captain exclaimed out with a cunning smile, as if what he said was natural.
” Who’s master… who’s servant? ” Xena questioned angrily, though she got a hunch of what he was trying to say, she was playing ignorant.
” I think this person might become my princess’s man! ” Old captain in red robes exclaimed out straight forwardly.
” Cough! Cough! Old dog, What nonsense are you taking about?
This Milton boy is not yet eligible to walk the journey of life with me! ”
Xena exclaimed out with a reddened face, before walking out the room hastly.
” Not eligible yet… didn’t she mean to say that when he becomes eligible, she’d gladly accept him! ”
As if a major mystery had been unfolded before his eyes, he left the room with a wide smile over his face.

Right next to the palace walls.
” State your report! ” Spotting the spy whom he made to infiltrate the palace earlier, helix exclaimed out commandingly.
” As vice lord commanded this hezoda had successfully infiltrated this powerhouse. ”
The one named hezoda was kneeling before helix with his one foot bent.
Though he had successfully infiltrated the place and obtained the information he was dispatched for.
His mission to find the location of his target ended up in failure, which could be clearly spotted in the troubled face of his.
” Continue! ” Helix exclaimed.
” The targets aura had vanished into nothingness, and couldn’t be spotted even after searching the whole of palace! ”
Unable to face up in failure, hezoda remained silent after muttering those words.
” Hmm… state what’s the military strength of this human palace? ”
” A million spirit lords, thousand spirit kings, fifty spirit emperors and ten old stage one spirit saints! ”
” Sigh! They are too weak to be called a powerhouse! ”
Helix shook his head side wards being disappointed in the western warlords palace strength.
” But there was an abnormal occurance, I wasn’t able to see through the cultivation of a meditating old man, who might rival our vice lord helix! ”
These words had started him, he was a stage four spirit saint and the power difference in each stage of saint is huge.
” So a stage four spirit saint is present in this remote palace! ” Helix muttered those words.
” Any abnormality? ” Hearing this word hezoda lifted his head stating.
” A boy from Milton and a girl from Ruthschild were found to be present at the scene, where we got our race’s royal aura.
And on top of it, the lord of Abyss seems to be involved in the case, who had dispatched an envoy to assassinate them!
And I could sense the traces of holy aura, so church had also involved their hands in this.”
Hezoda stated proudly.
” Milton… Ruthschild… lord of Abyss and church! Things are getting messed up a little!
Why are they getting themselves involved with our neutral wolf god’s race? ”
Helix pondered for a while, before stating
” Hezoda though you failed in your mission to spot the royal offspring, with the severity of the matters you discovered I hope Lord Gazil might pardon you of the failure! ”
” Glory to our red wolf tribe! ”
Hezoda bellowed before blending into the surroundings, emitting a thin red mist while at it.
” Ah! Golry to our red wolf tribe! ” Helix followed the same half interested.
######
In the newly made war camp.
” Hahaha… old abyss is involved with our wolf god’s race!
Had the elder’s knew about this, wouldn’t the peace treaty between our powers becomes void thereafter? ”
Gazil laughed out, while being seated on his mount, he then grabbed his swaying loose black hair in excitement, and commanded a new set of instructions to helix.
” Helix take Geogul and Fatale, abduct that Milton and Ruthschild offsprings, I had a set of question to ask them!
Ah! Take eight army if you are not sure to deal with those weaklings by yourself! ”
” Geogul is trustful, but I don’t want to work with Fatale? ” Helix answered back in anger.
Geogul the muscle brained brawler the strongest after Gazil in their army and Fatale the necromancer who is known for her ruthless cunning schemes and also a deadly ice beauty who were assigned to his team.
Geogul was easy to command, but Fatale with her personality would for sure try to benefit the most without a regard for the mission.
” Fatale isn’t she your ex? Haha! Still thinking about the matters of past? ” Gazil laughed out.
for visiting.
” Whatever, if she’s in the mission then I am out, I don’t want to follow up with a mission which is already doomed to be a failure! ”
Helix answered back angrily, before leaving the scene, he couldn’t still forget the matters of his father’s death, though it was unavoidable, Gazil was his father’s killer.
” Boss, helix was being disrespectful, would you mind if I made him my errand toy? ”
A blue robed seductress had made her entrance from below, after cleaving the ground with a set of bony claws, she summoned.
” No! Helix is still use full, once I find him useless and no more profitable, he’s at your disposal! ” Gazil said those coldly, without hesitating a bit in his words.
Making a “hmm” in her expressionless face, she too left the scene, searching for few local targets around to necromance.

In Cela’s mansion
” Just who are you damn it? ”
Cela who had turned the whole of library upside down had questions herself being puzzled.
She had to search every nook of the library, every single book out her research, trying to figure out the abnormality she discovered earlier, but sigh it resulted in failure.
Books were spread wide across the library and it would take a day for her disciples to arrange them back to the original position.
” Teacher how about we ask Grand master Gila, she’s more experienced than us in dealings of holy aura? ”
Celtia who was standing at a side, suggested out her opinion.
” Grand master glia… A good choice! ” Cela then hastly ran to her research room, opening her communication apparatus and tried contacting her master.
The communication device was a deep well, made of one meter diameter filled with mysteries gas, that made its bottom difficult to vision.
Whoosh!
A busty figure of thirty years old beauty appeared before her, from the mysteries gas which took shape her shape.
” Cela! It’s really you my darling, This old mother of yours missed you deeply! ” The beauty exclaimed out excitedly.
” Head master Gila, a have a doubt. ” Cela asked out straight forwardly without paying any attention to her worries.
” Doubt! You work driven unfilial child, how could you still have a cheek to ask for a doubt when we mother and daughter are connected to this apparatus after a long gap of two years? ”
Glia though appeared thirty her actual age was some where around sixty, it’s just that the holy aura within her had made her mature slowly.
Which made her retain youth, even after she enter the age of grand mother.
” Choir of god! Some one is able to assimilate it thoroughly without leaving a drop! ”
The second choir of god’s came out her mouth, glia was startled. But when she heard that some one is capable of absorbing it thoroughly, her face became serious. She then exclaimed stating.
” Tell me more about it? ”
