System In Another World - Chapter 79
Jin was wondering if Ur and Jellal attend this festival.
“There’s a similar event happening in my town every year.” Mercphobia said while looking around.
“I think every town or city have at least one festival.” Jin said.
Then they heard a loud voice.
“Come all! Those who are far away, listen! Those who are close, observe!”
Jin and Mercphobia turned their heads and saw a man with orange hair giving speech to the people. There’s a sword embedded into a crystal like stone in front of him.
“And brave adventurers, make yourselves heard! So who can pull this sword?”
Jin and Mercphobia walked forward and decided to take a look.
‘Isn’t that Hermes? And that’s not a sword, that’s an arrow. Don’t tell me… Artemis!’ Jin was surprised. He was always wondering what timeline it is but now he found out.
‘Artemis was already dead the moment she was consumed by that monster. Her fate is already sealed. If I arrive to this world earlier maybe I can save her but now… I don’t know how to save her.’ Jin thought.
He looked at the arrow and muttered, “I should give it a try. There’s nothing to lose here maybe I could find a way to save her.”
Hermes opened his arms widely and said, “This is a legendary sword and only the chosen one can take it out. Those who achieves it will receive the blessing of a goddess!”
“In addition… ” Hermes then took out a paper and presented it to everyone. “The one who achieve it will be invited to a trip around the world! The guild already approved it!”
‘If I’m not wrong they are here.’ Jin thought as he looked around at the people. He then saw Hestia, Bell, and others.
‘Well, I will go first before Bell’s turn.’ Jin thought and he walked forward on the stage.
“You’re going to try.” Mercphobia said to him.
“Well, There’s no problem in trying it.Also wear your mask for the time being.” Jin replied. He then walked to the stage.
Mercphobia sighed and he wear his mask.
“Hoo you’re going to give it a try brave adventurer?” Hermes said when he saw Jin walked to the stage.
Jin nodded his head and he walked forward in front of the sword(arrow). He took a deep breath and grabbed the arrow.
Hermes didn’t say anything anymore. He just looked at the mask man.
“Hmmph…!” Jin use his strength to pull out the sword(arrow) from the crystal but he couldn’t pull it out.
Everyone was looking at his performance wondering if he could pull it out or not.
“So hard… ” Jin muttered and he decided to use his magic power. Dense mana started to leak out of his body.
“Huff… ” He took a deep breath and pull the sword(arrow) with everything he got.
Crack!!
The wooden floor below his feet started to form a crack.
“Come out!” He roared and use everything he got.
Boom!!
The wooden floor below him collapse because of his sheer powers but the sword(arrow) was still embedded to the crystal.
Everyone took a step back when they saw the floor collapse. The wooden floor on the stage was gone but Jin was still trying his best to pull out the sword. Gust of winds swept out in the surrounding as Jin started to emit a dark green light.
“What is this…?” Hermes said as he retreated meters away from Jin. He frown and looked at Jin who was emitting a dark green light. This was the first time he saw this type of power.
“Is he gonna pull it out?” Bell muttered as he looked at Jin while covering his eyes from the wind.
This incident cause the people who weren’t interested in this event to looked over. Everyone were focusing on Jin who was trying to pull out the sword. They looked at him and wonder if he will be able to pull it out.
‘System help just this one!’ Jin roared in his mind as he use more of his strength. If he couldn’t pull it out then he was going to use the Great Heaven skill. But using this would create a destruction in this area.
Shiing!!
Jin managed to pull out the sword before he could use all of his dragon tattoo. The arrow emitted a dim light that was bȧrėly noticeable but Jin managed to notice it.
‘I see, I didn’t heard Artemis voice. Maybe the system help me this time.’ Jin thought while looking at the arrow on his hand. Then he heard everyone’s cheer for him.
“Hooo!! He got it out!”
“Nice Man! That was a good performance!”
“I didn’t think that you could actually do it man!”
Hermes walked to Jin and asked, “Are you okay, adventurer?”
“Yeah. I’m fine. You can call me Jin.” Jin looked at Hermes and said.
“Thanks, Jin. So I should introduce the sponsor of this event.” Hermes said as he turned his head and looked at the certain figure.
‘Artemis… ‘ Jin’s eyes lit up when he saw her.
