"Buu..."
Riri pouted. Lavi look at her and look down on the floor. Gwen have just told Riri about Lavi speech. And Riri is not liking it because she doesn't get to see it.
"Lavi... I want to see it too..."
Riri said. Lavi look at her and said.
"I'm sorry. But it's impossible for me to only say it to you. It's embarrassing."
Lavi said. Riri pouted again. Riri hug Gwen and ask Gwen.
"Gwen. Can I see it?"
"Haha. Of course. Let me show you the Recording."
Gwen said. She use her Magic to recreate the same Lavi that give the speech. Riri look at it and she love it. Lavi look and sound very manly. His back is so dependable. His speech give everyone hope. And that's is really good according to Riri.
She's so lucky to have Lavi as a Lover. Riri hug Lavi and She just giggles around. Lavi took her to the bed and brush her hair.
And now that Lavi is not with everyone, He can finally let out all his worry. He look so scared now. Gwen look at him and pat his head.
"Lavi?"
Riri look up and see that Lavi is nervous. Riri know the pressure that Lavi felt. After all, She's a princess. But she can also see that Lavi pressure is more intense than her.
'Having to shoulder the burden of the whole world. Of course he can't handle it good. And even though he's confidence. He still wasn't sure.'
Riri thought. His Expression is telling her that. It's so heavy that Riri and Gwen can feel it. Gwen put Lavi on the bed. She heal Lavi mental and apply Fear Resistance to him.
"Thank you Sis..."
Lavi said. Riri went to the side and lay down beside him. Gwen also lay down beside him. Lavi take a deep breath and close his eyes.
He was having nightmares. He try to strangle himself to ease the pain. Riri and Gwen wake up in the middle of the night and see that Lavi is struggling. They immediately pull his hand away from his neck and pin it to the bed.
"Shackles! Fear Resistance! Mental Resistance! Sanctuary!"
Gwen tied Lavi down and she apply all of that. Lavi immediately went back to normal. His breathing was rough. Gwen wake Lavi up and Lavi open his eyes.
"Haah... Haah... I have a nightmare..."
Gwen and Riri immediately hug Lavi. Telling him that it's okay. That they're here for him. Lavi went to sleep again.
His Consciousness suddenly got transferred into a Blue Room. It's so Nice that Lavi felt peace. And from the thin air. The space was distorted. And then, A figure of a woman appear.
She have a wavy blonde hair, a thin white dress and a big badonkers. Her eyes is green and she look straight at Lavi eyes.
Lavi recognize her and put his hand on his chest.
"Long time no see Goddess."
Lavi bowed. Althea smiled to him and she pat his head.
"You're having problem aren't you Lavi?"
"Yes... But you don't need to worry Goddess... I'm going to do my job!"
Lavi said with excited voice. But Althea see the fear in Lavi. The Fear of Failing to Protect everyone. He didn't afraid to die or anything. He fear that someone other than him will die.
Althea put her hands up and suddenly, A really slow breeze come to Lavi. Lavi look up and he was in peace. His clothes waved in the wind. Althea hug Lavi and Lavi was swallowed by Althea chest.
"Don't worry Lavi. I've prepared someone special in the world just to help you and the others on your journey."
Lavi look at Althea and asked.
"Really? Can I asked who they are?"
Althea nodded. She explained.
"She's someone who will let you and the others to victory with her weapons. She's the Divine Blacksmith. If you think your swords Silver Annihilation is strong. All the Weapon she make is 10 Times Stronger."
Althea just reveal something really crazy. But Lavi who's really calm in Althea hug and the breeze, nodded calmly.
"I see. Should I tell everyone to search for her? Can I ask her name and where she is?"
Althea touch Lavi nose.
"Only you can find her Lavi. Even if you ask Bianca. She can't be found. I will give you a clue. In the 100 Floor Dungeon. Go to the Deepest Floor. The floor 100. If you kill every single monster there by yourself. And you activate your mark. A secret door will open. In there, You can find a bunch of material for all of your weapon."
Lavi nodded. He know he can kill all of the 100 Floor monster easily.
"After you grab all of that material, You will also find a letter. And on that letter, You will find where you need to go. And also! You can use Gwen Teleportation to go there immediately. So, Yeah. It will cut your time really short."
Lavi nodded and said.
"Got it Goddess. Thank you for your Guidance. Also, Can you let go of me? I can't stand your body Goddess..."
Lavi blushed. Althea put her hand on her cheeks and she saw Lavi is hard.
"Well well... You are a young boy after all... Want me to give you a service for working hard?"
"Well Goddess... I'm afraid I can't take that offer. You're a goddess after all."
"Haha. You know huh. Well, Work hard okay? If you managed to stay alive and protect the world again. I will give you something nice."
Althea said. She winked and let Lavi go. Lavi bowed and he go back to his body. Althea muttered.
"It's a shame... Even though I want to try it. A delicious Hero... Oh well, I hope he take my offer."
Althea said. She disappear again to her realm. Lavi wake up and see Gwen and Riri giving him a double head.
Lavi close his eyes and let it out. And after that. Lavi stood up slowly. The reason why they give him a double head is because what happened last night.
It seems like Lavi has been stressing out too much. And talking about last night, Riri went back to the castle shortly after to go to sleep. And Gwen pick her up again in the morning before Lavi wake up to do this.
Lavi went to the bathroom and take shower. He dry himself and wear his robe.
"Sis. Can you teleport me to the floor 100? Goddess Althea just give me a task to kill all the monster in there."
Gwen nodded.
"Got it."
Riri has gone to school with Gwen teleport. And now, Lavi was teleported to the 100th floor.
There's a lot of Elites in there. Elites is a humanoid crystal that can shoot laser, and slice you into pieces. It's a really strong monster.
"Well then Lavi. When you're done, Call me."
"Yes."
Gwen teleport back to the Inn. Lavi take his mask out and put it on. He take his Silver Annihilation out.
'Serene Mind, Limit Break, Absolute Sharpness, Iron Strike, Wind of Freedom.'
Lavi enhance his body and his sword. He was covered by a Bluish Silver aura.
'If what Althea told me is true. Then I haven't on my limit yet. I can still get stronger weapon. I can't wait to see how that weapon turned out.'
Lavi thought. He vanished from the Dungeon. And suddenly. The Dark Dungeon was flashed by a really bright color.
"Silver Annihilation."
Lavi swing his sword one time. And it blow all Elites away. And another swing comes in and it destroy everything. The Dungeon floor was cracked just from the pressure.
Lavi stab the floor and lean on his sword.
He was bleeding all over. Now that everything is cleared out. Lavi need to use his mark. But now he regret doing Silver Annihilation.
Because it use all of his Magic Power. And he need to stop the bleeding as well. So Lavi wait for 1 minutes holding the pain. And then, He heal himself enough to stop the bleeding. Lavi activate his mark and suddenly, A rumbling sound can be heard.
Lavi look at his right and saw the wall is going down. Lavi use his sword as a support to walk there.
Lavi went inside and take his mask off. He look around and see a bunch of Monochrome Material.
Lavi don't know what they are because he don't have Appraisal like Bianca does.
'But I can say that this is a raw ore. This isn't processed in any way. This is pure raw ore.'
Lavi touch it and he can feel that the ore is reacting to his Mark. Lavi get a sudden air hitting him. Lavi back off and breathe hard.
'What was that feeling?! That's no normal ore... I feel like that ore is reacting to my mark. If that's true, We can still be stronger.'
Lavi put all the ore in his Storage. And suddenly, A strange letter fall down from the sky.
Lavi heal himself and jumped. He grab the letter and fall down slowly. He look around and open the letter. He read the letter and this is what written on it.
'Lannon City. Klaros Kingdom. Black Haired. Black Eyes. Demi - Human. Winged Race. Named Mari Peace.'
Lavi read it and he store it in his Storage. He notices that the wall is going to close. So he wear his mask again and use Limit Break. He dashed as fast as he could and leaped out. He take off his mask and put it inside his storage.
The corpses of the Elites have vanished. Meaning that there's going to be another wave spawning.
"Sis. I'm done. Pick me up."
Lavi call Gwen. Gwen suddenly appear right in front of Lavi. And they both went back to the inn. With Gwen tired and Lavi tired. They just sleep to recover their Magic.
4 Hours Later. Lavi wake up.
"Sis. I'm going to Klaros Kingdom for a bit."
Lavi said. Klaros Kingdom is a Kingdom where everyone there is a Demi - Human. Human and Demi - Human have been at peace for many years. So everyone is living peacefully. And Lannon City is a city where the Winged Race lived.
And Lavi is actually love Winged Race. Because they look so mighty and happy. The way they fly is really elegant and that's why Lavi love them.
"Klaros Kingdom. What City?"
"Lannon."
"I see. I don't know why you're going there. But I feel like Althea ask you to do it. So, Take care. I wouldn't be able to heal you. So be careful."
"Yes. See you in about a week sis!"
Lavi said. Gwen waved her hand and she went back to sleep.
Lavi activate his Stealth and run toward the Lannon City. It's at least 1000 KM away. And it will take Lavi 3 Days to run with a speed he can easily keep up for that far.
Everyone is searching for the churches while Lavi is searching for the Divine Blacksmith. After 3 days. Lavi finally arrived at the Lannon City. He went through the gate and went inside.
There's a bunch of human and Winged race there. Sometime there's also other Demi Human. He use his Aura Read and search for a very particular Aura.
But he can't seem to find them. So Lavi look around asking people.
"Mari Peace? Oh she's the cursed child. I suggest you to not look for her."
One of the human said. Lavi get a clue. She's called cursed. So Lavi can see a very particular Aura.
Usually, People called Blessing as a curse. So Lavi search for someone blessed by Althea. And he find a Gold Aura. Lavi use his stealth and he arrived at a hospital. Lavi saw that she's on the rooftop. So he jumped and he sees a really beautiful lady with black wings.
She immediately feel something.
"Is anyone there?"
Lavi shows up. He take off his gloves and asked.
"Are you Mari Peace?"
"Yes. I'm Mari Peace. Who might you be?"
Lavi just show her his Mark. Mari nodded.
"I see. So you're who Goddess Althea told me huh... Are you the one who's going to save me from my curse?"
Lavi pat her back.
"Mari. Listen. You're not cursed. You're blessed by Althea herself."
Lavi said. Mari look at him like 'Seriously?'
"You mean it? But people say that I'm cursed because of this wings..."
Lavi smiled at her.
"Who do you trust more? Althea? Or Other people?"
"I trust Althea."
"Then you're blessed. Come on. Let me take you to a journey. Let me show you what it likes outside Lannon."
Mari look at him. She smiled and said.
"Got it. I will follow you. Hero."
"You can call me Lavi. Come on."
Lavi take her hand and Mari spread her wings. Lavi and Mari jumped high. Lavi use his Air Walk and jumped really fast toward the gate. Mari fly in an incredible speed. Her speed is so much faster than normal Winged Race.
Lavi and Mari arrived outside the gate. Lavi slide down. Mari go down and Lavi catch her. Mari is sleeping. It seems like she was receiving Divination from Althea for the first time.
And as soon as she wake up. She feel like she's getting carried by Lavi. She understand her task to become a Divine Blacksmith. Lavi and Mari stopped in the middle a stone hill.
"So Lavi. I heard from Goddess that I was blessed to build you guys a weapon."
"Yes. You're correct. I can't tell you the detail but, That's the only thing I can say."
"I see. I don't really care about anything. Let me make your weapon now."
Mari said. Lavi take out a bunch of ores. She get a special set of skills because of her blessing.
'Marked Ore. An Ore that was made out of Pure Energy. Only those who have Mark of Althea can use it to the full potential. This ore can't be make into weapon from someone other than Mari Peace.'
Mari read that last word. She now understand how important she are to other people. But she still can't make any weapon yet. After all, She need to learn the basic.
But, Mari should be able to use her blessing for it. She only need to learn the basic and then the blessing will enhance her ability further. Mari give Lavi the ore back.
"Thank you. I got the description. I want to learn the basic first."
Mari declared. Lavi nodded.
"Understood. I will let you learn the basic. I won't force you to learn it fast. But We would be saved if you can learn it fast."
Mari smiled and nodded.
"Got it. I will pay my debt for you Lavi. Now, Let's go back to Euriana."
She said. Mari spread her wings again. Lavi leaped down and run all the way to Euriana.
It took them another 3 Days to finally arrived at Euriana. Mari immediately vanished to learn all the basics. While Lavi went back to training.
It's been a week since Lavi last contacted anyone. He doesn't want to contact anyone yet because he want to wait until Mari is able to smith the ore.
It's going to be a surprise for all of them. Lavi went to the Overlord Cave to train. He went past through the Goblin and go to the Hob Goblin section.
A really tall goblin with really wide pointy mouth can be seen every where.
Lavi arrived on the middle of the cave. They took notice of Lavi. They immediately charged at Lavi with their leg and their right arm dashing. Their left hand is up holding a really big sword.
"Come on. I'm up to play!"
Lavi slide down the hob goblin. He jumped and swing his sword. One of the Hob Goblin was decapitated. Suddenly, All the Hob Goblins immediately charged toward Lavi.
'They have a great turning maneuver. They're quite dangerous. As expected from the Overlord.'
Lavi use his Airwalk and jump back. He flip around and put his sword back on his scabbard. He crouched and dashed. Lavi pulled his sword out and he reach the other end.
All the Hob Goblins fall down. Their legs was cut off. Lavi try activate his CQC skills.
"Flash."
The Hob Goblins was blinded. He swing his sword. He spin around and when he about to swing it completely. He put all his power in his arm.
'Blinkstrikes Full Power.'
Suddenly, The space around the Hob Goblins started to distort. Suddenly, That space distortion started to explode. And the Hob Goblin was caught by that. They were chopped into giant chunk. And suddenly, They explosion of slashes, throw a really fast Hob Goblins sword toward Lavi.
Lavi crouched down and then he swing his sword up. The Hob Goblins sword was deflected to the Ceiling. It stuck to the ceiling. Lavi cut all their ears and put it in his Storage.
He use his stealth and went deeper. Now he fight the trolls.
The trolls is using a really big and pointy clubs. And their body is red. Not typical bluish green. They're the Overlord.
Lavi appear on the gate and they started to charged toward Lavi.
"Wind of Freedom."
Lavi just thrust his Silver Annihilation toward the Gate. The trolls keep coming and coming. And everything more come, more died.
And for those who managed to survive the Lavi assault. Lavi just swing his sword horizontally and cut their head. He cut their ears again and put it in the Storage.
Now it's just the orcs. With Limit Break and Serene Mind. Lavi easily kill all of them. Despite all of them having a strength of 100.
Lavi arrived on the middle of the orcs base. They were going crazy eating meat. And Lavi just appear right beside their fire pit.
Lavi smiled under his mask. Once again. Lavi just use his Blinkstrikes Full Power. And with Wind Of Freedom Activated. Lavi annihilated all 100 Orc Overlord.
Lavi grab all their heads and put it inside his Storage. And while he was there. He look around to search for treasure.
Lavi find 10 Platinum coin and that's else. The rest of it is just meat. More meat. And alcohol.
So after cleaning the Overlord Caves. Lavi went out of the cave and get back to Euriana.
'Overlord Caves is a dungeon. So things will respawn again. But this one is going to respawn after 1 Month. Even the Goblin that I kill haven't respawn yet. Only a few of them respawn. So I can't really go in there everyday killing all of them to gain some money. So I need to find some new dungeon and farm that one.'
Lavi thought. He stop by Mari to check on her.
