THE BLACK GOD OF DEATH
CH. 104

After a long night filled with fighting, they all decided to take a short break. Eliminate their fatigue by sleeping yeyak on a comfortable bed. Even the night is illuminated by a very beautiful moonlight with stars that shine adorn the night sky.

After the night passed, the day changed with the morning. On that morning, everyone was shocked by the arrival of an emperor to an inn. Everyone asked - asked which great man made the emperor to have to meet him personally.

Meanwhile, inside the guest room. There, the emperor and his wife and daughter, were sitting relaxed while enjoying the dishes that had been prepared. Seen by them, it looks like the emperor's wife has recovered from the illness she suffered thanks to the Aanokinn Mushroom obtained by Xi.

" What made an emperor come all the way to this simple place? " Task Xi to the Emperor.

Seeing Xi who asked an emperor casually made all of them in the room very surprised. This was only the first time that someone had spoken so casually. There was not a single person in the Southern region who dared to speak like that to the Emperor. However, this time they found a person who dared to speak like that.

Meanwhile, the Emperor who saw Xi's attitude towards him, he could only spare his breath. He did not mind Xi's attitude. " Of course I came all the way here with my family to thank you very much, Mr. Sakaki. Thanks to you getting Herbal Aanokinn Mushroom step, my wife recovered from her illness. I really really say thank you. " The Emperor said.

" Not only that, you are making a new history for this country. With you finishing a five-story dungeon within one night. Something like that has never been done by anyone in this country. " Advanced Emperor.

" Your services in saving the soldiers and adventurers from the rampage of ancient monsters that guard the land of the beast forest, really cannot be expressed in words anymore... At that moment, When Guild Master Mamasaki told of you being a decoy to distract from the ancient monster so that they could all survive the pursuit of that monster. It really made everyone very surprised, and... " Advanced Emperor. However, suddenly Xi raised his hand and stopped the emperor's conversation.

With a serious look, Xi asked the Emperor "No need to talk about that nonsense, just get to the point. What was your purpose in coming to see me? Is that to invite me into this empire? " Said Xi coldly. He asked the emperor.

Hearing that made the emperor a little surprised. He did not expect that Xi would say that. Unlike people in general who are very proud when he was praised by an emperor. However, Xi gave a cold look as if he did not care about the compliment. And immediately asked the purpose of the arrival of the emperor who met him.

The Emperor smiled, not expecting Xi to know his plans. Didn't expect someone to understand his way of thinking back then. " There seems to be nothing to hide from Mr. Sakaki... All right I'll say. Will Lord Sakaki be willing to join the Fafnir Empire? If you're willing, you'll I'll raise to be a Duke, and I'll betroth you to my daughter. " The Emperor said with a confident smile. The offer given by the emperor was very comforting. Being a Duke is the dream of everyone in this world. However, the Emperor also added that he would marry his daughter to Xi. It is an opportunity that will not come twice in a person's life.

Hearing that made Xi pause for a moment. He pondered what the Emperor had to offer. After a good thought, he looked the emperor in serious eyes and said "I refuse! " Answer Xi seriously. He refused the Emperor's very tempting offer.

Hearing Xi's reply, the Emperor was slightly surprised. But on the other hand he is also happy because the person before him is not a person who is greedy for power or luxury like normal people in general. After hearing that from Xi, he clapped his hands and asked the guards to bring him something.

" I know that you would say it's Mr. Sakaki... But, please accept this little hadia from me, as a sign of my gratitude for saving my wife. Please Mr. Sakaki accept it. " The Emperor said to Xi, bowing his head. At that time, on the table were three treasure boxes, one of which contained platinum and gold coins, the second one of us contained two small wolf statues made of gold, and the last one is a box that contains jewels.

Xi who saw that was confused. He wondered if he should accept it or not. However, because he did not want to mess with the Emperor any further, he also accepted the hadia given by the Emperor and his family.

After that, the Emperor left because he had business to finish. In addition, Xi also left the empire and continued on his way, along with Airis and Astia.

Before he left, he gave duty to Kazan, Kido, and Devil Smoke to strengthen their combat power. Along with that he also gave them a black-colored hard scroll. Before leaving, Xi said, "One day, the paper will come in handy! " Said Xi as she walked away leaving the empire.

On their way, which is not yet clear, they will go where. In the middle of the road, arriving - arriving without them knowing, they were sent to an appropriate. There was a transfer magic circle as they passed through a forest. And at that time, they were moved to a hot place again also arid.

They were also confused as to why they could be in this place. Not long after, a screen appeared before Xi telling the incident.

[Report] [You have triggered the magic Riad Dungeon. Complete the Raid by defeating the boss who controls this dungeon so you can return ]

" So so, we unknowingly triggered a Raid... " Said Xi in her heart.

Not long ago they were in the place, from a distance seemed a storm coming towards them. It looked like a thick storm was controlled by something, because the direction was really only on them.

" The storm was very strange... " Airis said as she narrowed her eyes to see more clearly. He felt there was something behind the storm.

" Yes, you're right Airis... The storm was so strange, I felt like there was a group of creatures inside that storm. " Astia said while taking the movement of the storm seriously.

The thick storm was getting longer, getting denser, and began to feel the ground like a slow begetar. Strange sounds began to be heard from behind the storm, and it seemed as if a four-legged creature had appeared. Although it was just a shadow, they could feel the presence of a group of creatures from the thick storm.

" Let's get rid of that annoying storm... Holy rain arrows! " Said Astia and instantly unleashed her holy magic to eliminate the storm.

Thousands of arrows made of holy magic pierced through the storm wall. At the same time, as the attack pierced through the storm, a loud shouting sound was heard by them. That shout, was like the cry of a monster in pain from being hit by a holy attack from Astia. The thick storm slowly began to disappear, and seen behind the storm there are hundreds of monsters Heynaa long fangs kitchen knife.

[Cr] Rank: C. Level 50. Exp :6,000. [Hynaa beast-type monster living in a barren land. Hunting for prey with large numbers of groups. When Heynaa moves in search of prey in groups will cause a thick storm of dust, in order to block the visibility of the creatures they will prey ]

" So that thick fog was them? I admit it's a fog guess it'll be a problem when it gets to us. " Airis said as she looked at the monsters who were groaning towards her. He stared intently at the group of Heynaa. "for a Rank C monster-sized like them, his strategy was good as well. " Advanced Airis.

" You're right, if it's an ordinary fight, it may already be their prey. " Advanced Astia.

" But their numbers are not as many as before, thanks to you we do not have to bother to deal with all of them. " Said Airis while pulling her sword.

The monsters immediately ran towards the three of them by showing their fangs that were as sharp as knives. The Heynaas ran around Xi, Airis, and Astia. They kept turning around causing dust to start appearing and blocking the view.

The Heynaa attacked the three in stop by jumping towards the target while trying to bite the target.

However, any attacking Heynaa can be easily avoided by all three. It was so easy, until they could counter-attack Heynaa who jumped towards them.

The five Heynaa were terrified when they saw Heynaa - the other Heynaa was killed by the prey they wanted to prey on. With fear, the five Heynaa retreated slowly - the land away from the three men who had killed the other Heynaa. However, just as they retreated a few steps, their heads floated in the air.

BRUK! BRUK!BRUK! The sound of Heynaa's head falling to the ground. Airis quickly slashed at the five Heynaa who were about to flee after attacking them.

At the same time, the system screen showed the location of the boss of the Raid Dungeon. It seemed that the position of the Boss was very far from where they were. It was very far ahead of them, and there were many monsters guarding the boss of the monster.

So it is also unlikely that it will be a smooth road when going there. Because, the monsters in this arid field did not allow the three of them to reach where the boss dungeon was easily located.

" It's troubling... If I use Evilsky it will be finished quickly but, it will not be effective because I could have missed something good. In addition, if I use Evilsky now, it will be difficult to level up because I have to share it with him. " Xi said in his heart while thinking of the best plan to complete this Raid Dungeon.

" Xi - Same, where are we going next? " Task Airis to Xi politely.

Hearing that question, it appeared Xi was thinking about what they would do next in this Raid Dungeon. To get to where the boss of the dungeon was impossible in such a short period of time. Moreover, they also needed to raise their levels to become stronger. Because now, the goal that Xi wanted to achieve right now was to become an adventurer with Rank S in order for the Quest given by the system to be completed. So, he can get memories again like before.

After pondering for quite a while, he also got an idea to trap the monsters, so that they could defeat the monsters easily.

" Okay, I have a plan. " Said Xi while summoning Shadow Rat land.

Airis and Astia are confused as to why their master only summoned the creatures, and why not summon them all. Confused, they finally asked.

" Why are they just mister? Wouldn't it be easier for the master to use all the Shadow Army to defeat the other monsters? It will be easier to quickly get to the location where the boss is. " Astia said as she asked.

Hearing that, Xi replied, "Having power but not having brains is a lie. If I use the shadow army to break through those monsters, I'll be the one who will be harmed. Because every time the Shadow Army is destroyed by monsters, my energy will be used instead for their resurrection. " Said Xi calmly. While explaining. " Because of that, it will definitely make my energy drain quickly. Therefore, I just summoned them. The reason is to make a big hole. I'll make the hole they dug a trap. " Subsequently Xi.

" The hole they dug, I will cover it with a wide cloth and disguise it like this earth. Once those monsters pass through, they will fall into that hole, and we will easily kill him. " Subsequently Xi.

Hearing that Astia was a little surprised and was also amazed at the thought of her master. " Simple thinking, but also great. I don't think there will be many people who will think that way. " Said Astia.

The plan spoken by Xi, is just a trap/trap that is usually used by hunters to trap prey. Basically, the hole is dug deep enough, so it allows animals that enter the hole can not get out. And on the inside of the hole is filled with sharp objects, so that the animals that enter will be injured or worse they will die.

Once it is prepared, the hole will be covered with twigs - fragile tree branches, so that when stepped on the tree branch it will break. And make anyone who stepped on it will fall into the hole that has been dug.

A while later, from a considerable distance, it appeared that the fog from the monster group was running towards them. Seen there, Airis was herding the monsters to the place where the trap was.

" A minute! " Airis said in her heart while paying attention to the sign that Xi had given her. Before he passed the mark, Airis immediately jumped into the air through the trap he had prepared. Airis landed on the other side of the trap.

And at the same time, the monsters were still running around chasing Airis nonstop. BOOM UP! BRUAAK! the monsters entered and fell into the traps that had been prepared. And looking down there, the monsters were very confused with the huge hole that trapped them.

" I've guessed... We'll get a lot, good work Airis. " Said Xi lightly while praising the hard work of Airis who herded the monsters into the trap.

" Thank you for the compliment Xi - Same! " Said Airis who was happy when praised.

The monsters looked extremely frightened as they looked at Xi's bright glowing red eyes. Those eyes showed an extremely strong killing intent, and seemed to be impatient to finish them all off. Their bodies were trembling, and their faces seemed to cry when they saw the horror.

Three days after, Xi Airis, and Astia had arrived in front of the monster Boss's lair. Seemed there the three of them were dealing with the many monsters guarding the nest of the boss monster.

There are monsters such as cactus plants, golden turtles, desert ants, and also Heynaa. The battle outside was fierce, between the monsters against the Shadow Army summoned by Xi.

[Anger Cactus ] Rank: C. Level 50. Exp :6,500.

[A monster in the form of a cactus plant that can walk and stand like a human. This creature will attack the adventurers around it with a cactus trunk full of sharp thorns ]

[Turtle - golden turtle ] Rank: B. Level : 80. Exp :15,000. [Monster Kura - a large-sized turtle. With the whole body of gold. Starting from the skin, shell, eyes, bones, even blood. Golden turtle will be very aggressive what if there are adventurers who are close to the egg. And would use any means to drive away the adventurer ]

[ Desert Ants ] Rank: C. Level 35. Exp :5,000. [Wasteland Ants are insect-type monsters/Insecta. This type of monster is often found, and has a very fast breeding because of their large numbers. Desert ants have a strong skin, so it can protect them from sharp weapons. ]

[Cr] Rank: C. Level 50. Exp :6,000. [Hynaa beast-type monster living in a barren land. Hunting for prey with large numbers of groups. When Heynaa moves in search of prey in groups will cause a thick storm of dust, in order to block the visibility of the creatures they will prey ]

Although the Shadow Army was often destroyed by monsters, they were able to return intact by relying on Xi's remaining magic energy. However, it was only for ordinary Shadow Army, and not for high-end Shadow Army like IGRIS, GIDEON, Hidden Master, Beast King, and Combat Maniac.

They were able to defeat the monsters that blocked Xi's path so easily, that even Xi could enter the Boss Dungeon's room. However, after he entered the boss room, he did not see the boss monster at all. Instead, he was greeted by other monsters in the form of Snakeman.

Snakeman has a humanoid body with a human-like top that has a head, neck, and hands. And starting from the waist down, in the form of a snake tail in general. The Snakemans moved quickly to capture Xi while carrying their weapon of a spear.

At the same time. Holding his body, Xi prepared - ready to face the humanoid monsters. He held tightly to his katana, and darted towards the crowd of Skaneman saying "I'll start with you first! " Said Xi as she released her katana. At that moment, many Snakemans were instantly killed by Xi with ease. Not a single monster could survive Xi's extremely fast and sharp katana slashes. And they ended up under the sharpness of Xi's katana.
