Chapter 435: Return (2)

It has been 21 days since the ‘Advance Party’ event started.

In an unnamed area that does not even fit into The Rookie District under the 9th Royal District.

Puck! Puck! Bang! Bang!

“Damn it!”

“Why is the intruder still here!?”

“I just heard he was in a Regular District under the 6th Royal District just before!”

“Son of a bitch! How is heso strong!? Then how…”

“Kheeeeeeeeeeek”

“Khuuuuuuk”

Flop!

Flop!

Flop!

At least until just before the cooldown of the limited skill ‘Savant’ returns, I thoroughly followed my determination not to stay in one place for long.

I also had the ‘scam’ skill Blink with zero cooldown that made this possible.

Of course, as it was an area that was not even a Rookie District, the inhabitants were incredibly weak.

However, in the 20 odd days since this event ‘Advance Party’ started, I learned that I had no choice but to fight them at the risk of everything, including my life.

In other words, I did not intend to fight while differentiating the strong from the weak. There is no such guarantee that the weak will remain weak forever.

So, I decided to get rid of them as much as I could.

After a while, I used Blink with zero cooldown in succession to leave the unnamed area lower than a Rookie District, and hid myself in the mountains with a small but dense forest. I didn’t need to rest, but that didn’t mean I didn’t have to.

Above all, I didn’t know that an unexpected battle might happen.

After sitting down on a flat rock, I pulled an item out from my inventory. 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

[Denayan’s Wood Piece (Unrated)

-It is a part of Denayan, the so-called ‘the oldest tree’ because no one knows when it existed.]

The black liquid man appeared to resurrect even though he was obviously dead.

No, it wasn’t something like a fake, but definitely a revival.

So, after I killed Fashant, the ruler of the 7th Royal District, I scanned the area for a while to search for signs of his revival. I also did the same for the Ancient Golem and the Giant Bow, the rulers of the 10th and 5th Royal District respectively.

However, nothing was found where the Fashant and the Ancient Golem died.

But when the string of the Giant Bow split in two, I chanced upon something different. It was the piece of Denayan’s wood in my hand right now.

“Well, it is rather strange that the owner of the 5th Royal District is a wooden bow.”

Considering it was the ruler of the 5th Royal District, it would not be strange at all for the Giant Bow to have one or two expensive jewels embedded in it, along with all kinds of decorations.

But it was really plain, and nothing luxurious.

Except for the fact that it was almost 2-3 times larger than a normal bow, it was pretty normal.

While I was looking at the piece of Denayan wood that dropped from the Giant Bow, something stuck out from the ground under me.

It was none other than the roots. But they were rather mushy.

Except for when I first got the roots, they always showed a strong appearance.

But when I saw them a few days ago, I couldn’t help but be very surprised because they were covered in wounds. Some of the wounds were very deep.

They didn’t wiggle vigorously, and they were pretty mushly like now.

Of course, it was easy for me to figure out why.

These roots perfectly blocked the Earth Spirit of Fashant, the owner of the 7th Royal District and the incarnation of the Spirit King.

So I thought the roots suffered the wounds while fighting Fashant. Otherwise, it was impossible for the roots to have such severe wounds.

So I couldn’t help but feel like crying because the wounds were caused by me.

Anyway, I opened my mouth to the roots, which were a little better than before, but still suffering from the wounds.

“You want this?”

Nod, nod.

Of course, I couldn’t tell if it was a real ‘nod.’

But one thing was certain. In other words, the roots coveted this piece of wood very much.

But why hadn’t I given it to the roots yet?

Of course, there was a reason. To be honest, I also covted it.

So, a few days ago, I used Fly secretly and used Blink with zero cooldown in the sky.

Then I secretly brought the piece of wood to my mouth and bit it.

Just as the roots ate up a piece of black liquid man fragment Ⅲ like before.

[…]

I could not bite it, nor swallow it into my mouth.

Of course, it was different from this, but there was something else I had eaten before.

[Root (General)

-If you eat it, you can get one root.]

According to the explanation, it was possible to eat the roots, but there was no explanation about eating Denayan’s piece of wood. Still, I tried several times.

Obviously, the growth of the roots also contributed to my growth, but my actual growth was more important. However, there is no way for me to absorb it.

So I made a decision.

I placed a piece of Denayan’s wood on the palm of my hand, then pushed it to the front of the root. Of course, I may know how to absorb it later, but I thought that if I didn’t do this right now, it wouldn’t be mine.

So I said to the roots, “I think this piece of wood belongs to you.”

As soon as I said that, the roots moved very fast.

The white roots with a softer feel than I expected took Denayan’s piece of wood from my hand. Then it dug back into the ground right away.

“Alright. How much I have gained from you roots”

With those words, I brushed off my interest in Denayan’s wood piece that was very unusual.

Then I got up from the rock and moved again using Blink with zero cooldown because the ‘Advance Party’ event was over yet.

***

On the 27th day since I participated in the ‘Advance Party’ event.

The cooldown of my limited skill ‘Savant’ had returned. That’s why I was feeling a little greedy.

Obviously, I wouldn’t receive any more rewards, but I still wanted to get rid of at least one more person. But at a glance, I knew it was a trap.

Obviously, many people were killed by my hands, but they seemed to have made no preparations as if inviting me in.

Of course, I was confident enough to cause a big fuss and get out without any taking any damage, but I didn’t do so. I was like a sergeant about to be discharged from the army, so I had to be very careful about my last activites, no matter how trifling they were.

So I kept participating in the event carefully until I received the following message.

[It has been 30 days since you participated in the ‘Advance Party’ event.

-The 30-day cooldown of the ‘Return’ command has ended.

-You can use the ‘Return’ command at any time to leave Kuhana and move to your original place.

-When you return to Earth, you will receive a reward immediately, and additional rewards will be given according to the additional points you have earned while in Kuhana.]

“Hehehe!”

The message made me laugh out loud because I had a really good 30 days.

Of course, I had no intention of using the return command right now.

According to the message, there was no mention of using it right now either. 𝑓𝑟eℯ𝒘𝗲𝑏n𝑜𝚟𝙚𝒍.𝒄o𝐦

I had the limited skill ‘Savant’ and I had a cheat key called ‘Return’ that allowed me to escape the danger whenever I felt it. In other words, I wanted to receive a reward right away, but I had no intention of throwing away this last chance and going back to Earth.

It was best for me to get rid of at least one more when I could.

So, I took the last step to put the things I had in mind into action.
