Mission And Reward System
The Eghed Continent 26

Two hours later.

Derrick who fainted finally woke up and found that it was getting dark which signaled that soon it would be night, the sound of crickets being rubbed against each other added to the aura of silence that was getting gripping.

Derrick was a little surprised to see Hara's cold corpse right next to him, he quickly pushed the corpse away.

"Huh, just startle." Feeling relieved. Said Derrick while stroking his bust that was blooming.

After feeling calm Derrick left with heavy steps and limping, he met and met face to face with Raki, Resi, and also commander Xiao who was heading towards the northern border. Of course they were all surprised.

"Derrick, what happened to you?" asked Resi who immediately carried Derrick who looked like he was about to fall.

"Why are you here?" derrick asked the three men.

"We should have asked like that, you fool." Angrier. Xiao said, the four of them finally went to the northern border together.

In a room that looks so luxurious, a large area, and a large chair that is soft and comfortable seen the king Hans who sat while reading the daily newspaper, beside him stood a large general with a cross and straight-eyed view forward.

In front of them was a person in the robes of the VAR organization who displayed a sly and confident smile.

"Is the news to be believed?" Focus on reading the newspaper. King Hans asked the people from VAR who delivered the news about the plot of the VAR coup against his kingdom.

"Of course it's true, after all I'm one of the 10 guards they took part in." Sipping tea. The man replied confidently, then put down his teacup and looked intently at king Hans.

"Do you doubt me, your majesty, King Hans?" Stare sharply. Asked the man to king Hans, he felt doubted by the king.

"Haha, I believe, of course I believe in your information." Laughs. King Hans said with a crisp laugh in response to the man's question.

"Son, do I need to take care of the goddamn magic emperor?" The great general asked king Hans after the man from VAR left and left them both in the room.

"I didn't expect the magic emperor to want to stage a coup on me, I guess he supported me wholeheartedly to be king." Growled. Said King Hans as he sipped his coffee and placed his newspaper elegantly.

"Don't be rash, you gather our best soldiers to welcome them inside the palace." King Hans gave orders to the great general.

"That's..," the great general objected.

"Just do my orders." Cut King Hans coldly.

"Good, brother." Go leave the room. The great general inevitably had to obey the orders of king Hans to gather the best soldiers to welcome the rebellion of the magic emperor supported by the VAR group.

Northern border.

Derrick who meditated to break through level 82 again had a failure, it was the fourth failure himself to break through to level 82.

"Fear again?" Open ones eyes. Asked Raki who was also meditating there, he himself intended to break through level 90 leaving Derrick far behind.

"Yes, it's very hard to break through." Sighs. Derrick replied as he was by shaking his head helplessly.

Xiao entered the sealed room where Derrick and Raki meditated to break through, then sat down in one corner of the bed.

"Don't be in a hurry, because breaking through isn't about how much time you spend, but also how much talent you have, and how much resources you have to break through." Said Xiao advising the two students, he considered the two students too hasty.

Xiao himself had power within level 100. Xiao is currently trying to break through the next level, which is the End Peak level, where entering the final level of the peak, Xiao's strength will be very large and strong, both reflexes, speed, attacks, and so on, as well as defense, and have unlimited mana.

As information there are no more levels once one reaches the peak end level, and Xiao has the potential to reach that level.

"Haha, even a hundred years of training, you will still not be able to surpass me, just give up." Taunting laugh. Said Xiao mocking Derrick and Raki who intend to surpass him.

"Teacher one day we'll surpass you, there's no giving up in our dictionary, right Raki?" Screaming annoyed. Said Derrick right in the ear of Xiao who meditated, in one wave Derrick pushed far away.

"You.," Derrick was angry, but Raki was thrown into him and the door was immediately shut tightly in a single wave of Xiao's hand after Raki was also sent out by Xiao.

"Bad!!!" Derrick and Raki shouted furiously.

They both decided to look around the abandoned village since the northern border fortress was controlled by Samla's royal forces, thousands of tents stood around the village indicating that the troops were getting ready and just waiting for the command of the army general.

"Mr Derrick, Mr Raki where are you going?" Ask the general who led the force when he saw Derrick and Raki walking around the village.

Although he was a general, he had a position equal to the status of a magic knight commander, but he also had to be respectful to the people who came from the magic knight department whatever his status was, he said, either a magic knight commander or a member of an ordinary magic knight.

So it was natural that he greatly appreciated and respected Derrick and Raki who were magic knights or members of the dark magic knight army led by Xiao the second prince.

"Greet General Wang." Cupped both hands. Derrick and Raki salute the general, Wang.

"We both want to look around the village." Raki answered general Wang's question.

"That's what it looks like." Nodding. General Wang called out to some soldiers who were training.

"You guys control...,"

"General Wang, we want to look around alone, without bodyguards, so that's not necessary." Interjected. Said Raki asking that general Wang not give them bodyguards.

"But Lord Raki this area is very war-prone, there better be bodyguards." General Wang insisted on giving Derrick and Raki bodyguards.

"Do you doubt us, old man?" Derrick asked with the bars to make Raki surprised instead of playing, Raki reflexively clapped Derrick's head with a fist to keep quiet.

"Haha, General Wang forgive my friend this, he does have poor communication." Laughs awkwardly. Raki apologized while stroking her back head and rubbing Derrick's crown.

"What do you mean Raki?" Screaming annoyed. Derrick is angry with Raki's actions to him.

"It's okay, but are you sure you don't want to be escorted?" General Wang understood and once again asked about the escort, once again Raki refused to be escorted.

##

Derrick and Raki arrive at a place that is destroyed, they can both guess that the place is a former war that occurred between the northern border forces against the forces of the Samla kingdom.

"This..., doesn't it belong to Varg?" Derrick saw and held a painting depicting a forest very similar to the circumstances in which they were.

"Regarding Varg..," Thought. Raki wants to tell about Arya's betrayal, but she undoes it.

"Why Varg?" Urges. Derrick asked with a straight look at Raki who was speechless thinking.

"Ah.., forget it, after all it doesn't matter at all." Smilingly. Raki's words finally cover up about Varg's betrayal.

They went back around and found various weapons ranging from swords to spears strewn about. The further they walked, the more they found tragic things, ranging from the bodies of the troops, the bodies of the citizens, to the bodies of pets or magic animals involved in the war. Some of them were killed by sword slashes, sword stabs, spear thrusts, or magic power.

Until finally they arrived at a place a little far from the fort, it was seen that Samla's royal soldiers were on standby above the fort.

"Ouh yes, Raki can you see the level of the people of the Eghed continent during their time on this continent?" Derrick asked while trying to see the level of the soldiers, but still could not.

"Of course we can't see their levels, when you don't know?" Raki's response was quite surprised that Derrick did not know that they could not see the level of the people of the Eghed continent.

"What's that, why can't we see their levels?" Derrick's getting curious.

"It happened because the people of the Eghed continent did not train their inner manpower, they increased their mana capacity subconsciously" explained Raki who made Derrick quite surprised.
