Hero From The Dark Dimension
Chapter 49: 15 days before NGB

Day by day passed.

The same dream came back to be Darius's sleeping flower every night, a dream about Drake who kept saying "Save them."

An unknown dream means that it disturbs his sleep.

"Oh, my head hurts."

Darius woke up all over his body covered in cold sweat, he felt dizzy in his head.

He got out of his bed and was about to get out of the room....

*Jdu*...!

His head hit the wall above the exit until it cracked, falling dust due to cracks on his face. Reflexes, he also cleaned up the dust that was stuck on his face.

"Gosh...., how did this happen?" darius asked as he cleaned the dust on his face.

The dust on his face was clean, then rubbed his head to make sure there was no dust left, this is where Darius found an oddity in him.

"Eh...? what'sthis?"

There was something strange stuck in his head, he continued to feel something in his head with a feeling of shock.

Until a moment later, he decided to look for a mirror to see something that stuck to his head, how even more surprised Darius after knowing the strangeness in his head...

"WHAT IS THIS?!!!"

Shouted Darius.

The horns on his head increased and became longer, the color of his horns was dark red with strange carvings on each curve.

"What the fuck? why did I become like this?"

Darius was panicked, now there were changes to his body.

Not only the horns, but the physical also undergoes drastic changes. Starting from the color of his eyes that now become purplish red to his fingernails are getting tapered, his teeth became sharp so that all his teeth look like canines.

Truly beset by the overwhelming panic he was currently in, he thought the changes to his body had stopped ever since he came out of the dark dimension.

"I don't eat monster meat anymore, but why? why do these changes keep happening?"

Darius was very confused.

"Sir, what's wrong? why are you screaming?"

Suddenly Raven appeared from behind the door, the yelling sound of Darius stealing his attention who was working on the documents in the living room.

Darius terdiam, ia tidak bisa berkata apa-apa. Hanya dengan melihat saja, Raven mengetahui apa yang membuat tuannya berteriak.

"Master, your body—"

Raven immediately ran out of words after seeing the condition of her employer.

"By my father's name, I have absolutely no idea why this could happen. I became more and more terrible" said Darius, panicking.

"Relax sir, the most important thing now is that you can't panic, I will immediately find a way out for you" said Raven, trying to calm his master.

"Well what happened to me, is this a curse?" ask Darius.

"I'll find out soon enough, it's better now that master immediately cleans up. I'll prepare breakfast for you" replied Raven, then Darius nodded.

Soon Raven ignored her document affairs for a while and prepared breakfast for her master.

13 Minutes passed....

Darius had already finished bathing and getting dressed, at the dining table was already Raven waiting for him.

"Please enjoy the dish, sir," said politely Raven.

The dishes on the table look delicious, but Darius continues to ring with his increasingly changing physique, it makes his appetite so slightly reduced.

Raven noticed the gloom on her employer's face.

"Sir, I swear I will find a solution for what you are experiencing" said Raven.

"I never doubted your words, Raven. It's just that I feel confused, why is this happening to me again? that's what I was thinking" Darius said.

Darius was feeling uneasy.

"Is this possible the actions of the Hunt nobles?" guess Raven.

"Of course not, this change has been a long time since I met them" Darius replied.

"But wouldn't your physical changes happen only when you eat monster meat?" ask Raven.

Raven's words were right, this made Darius run out of words.

"There are some rumors circulating on the internet about Hunt's royals in the present" Raven said.

"The internet?"

Darius did not understand.

"Internet is like a news board that we usually meet in guilds or information acquisition places in our time, it's just that the internet is much wider and easier to reach. We can find anything we want there" explained Raven.

Both of Darius' eyes immediately sparkled after hearing that explanation.

"really? is there any way to get rid of this terrible physical change from me?"

"There may be, even though the internet is vast but there are still limits to the information we can get."

Raven put down her tablespoon and took her laptop, a few minutes later she returned.

"Internet can be accessed through electronic devices such as mobile phones, laptops or computers. Like this one."

Raven explained the details of everything about the internet, despite listening to the details. For a knight to be left behind with information for 400 years, this was a natural thing.

On the internet, Raven searches for information about popular rumors about Hunt's nobility. There is a rumor that the Hunt nobility is hiding a magic named Forbidden summon.

This magic is able to transform a person into a Hybrid creature and control it as desired by its use.

This magic was discovered by Feredrit Marc during the reign of Prince Willum in the kingdom of Xeranos (a time with Drake who was already King), at that time the kingdoms of Xeranos and Ezius were in dispute due to the presence of other parties who complained.

It is not explained here about how and with what conflict the third party can pit the two great empires, there is even a caption that says that this is still a mystery.

"Do you know this, Raven?" ask Darius.

"No sir, maybe this incident happened while I was still asleep due to the injuries caused by the Dark Lord commander, as I said before, I woke up when His Majesty Drake was already elderly," answer Raven.

They continued to research the info about the rumors.

This rumor first spread a week after the NGB last year, there has been no solid evidence to justify this rumor, however, this rumor is very popular among the public and is still the subject of discussion until now.

"Did Queen Hunt respond to these rumors? is he not offended?" ask Darius.

"The queen had responded to the rumors that were directed at her people and claimed the rumors were nothing but empty talk, this she revealed in a talk show," replied Raven.

"Talk shows?"

"Ehh.., forgive me, sir. I forgot to explain it."

They returned to the main topic, which was about magic called Forbidden summon.

"This is a curse-type magic, where this magic can be broken after killing the user or the user withdraws the curse. Only high-level magicians are capable of mastering it and the most potential to master this magic is the Hunt," explained Raven.

Raven showed Darius the screen of his laptop, where he showed the symptoms of a person who was exposed to the magic of Forbidden summon.

***Initial symptoms of Forbidden summon victims:

–Gigi become sharp in one night.

–Headaches followed by the growth of horns.

–My nails tapered overnight.

–Otot that suddenly becomes strong beyond the normal limits and the color of the pupils of the eyes that change***.

All of these were exactly the symptoms that Darius was experiencing.

"There is a possibility that this is a forbidden magic act, I am not entirely sure if the physical changes that the master is experiencing come from the master's own body" said Raven.

Carefully, Darius considered the words of Raven. What he said has a point.

Darius has the ability to absorb and take abilities from the monsters he eats, this ability can cause changes in his physique, but this ability is active only when he consumes monster meat.

If not, then the physical will not change. It would be absurd if Darius' physique changed without consuming monster meat first, plus he had not consumed monster meat for a long time.

Physical changes without consuming monster meat were an odd thing.

"You're right, there's a chance this could be magic. But for now I do not want to prejudge the descendants of my own sister, immediately find information related to this magic and how to inhibit its impact. That's what we can do right now, until we find a way to find the culprit" Darius said.

Soon Raven carried it out with full responsibility.

Ting...! The keg....!

The doorbell rings.

Raven immediately checked who was visiting his house, the figure in front of his door was currently the first Commander of the Sword Master Division. Seis Cassanova.

"The first commander of the Sword Master? what's he gonna do here?" inner Raven.

Seriate....
