THE BLACK GOD OF DEATH
CH. 145

The State of the Snowy Kingdom, at night the atmosphere felt very quiet. There was not a single person who was active at night except them, the ones who were standing guard at the altar of the moving place.

Meanwhile, the Queen of the Snowy Kingdom Country, Queen Elsia. Leading a number of cavalrymen headed somewhere at high speed. With special horses coming from the Snowy Area, the horses could run very fast without any obstacles from the snow they were chasing.

It looks very fast, and light. The soles of the feet of the horses did not in the least cause a trace on the path they were on. This becomes very good and profitable for everyone, no need to worry or fear if there are people who follow them.

On her way, Queen Elsia recalled what Xi had said earlier to her before Xi and the others entered the displacement pedestal, Xi said. " Four days from now on, they will start moving towards somewhere... Suoto City, they, the Gremory Switf Organization will attack that city. " That's what Xi told Queen Elsia.

Hearing the news Elsia could not help but be surprised to hear it. He thought how Xi could have or get information about the Gremory Switf Organization attacking? Even for him and other countries, the movement of this Organization is very difficult to predict. However, Xi told him that they would attack the city of Suoto, which is located far enough from the Snowy Kingdom State. Moreover, Xi told himself confidently and confidently that those people would really be heading there.

For bandit groups or criminal groups, attacking or even taking over a city whose control is far enough from the royal area is easy prey for them. It was easy for them to attack and take everything in the city without having to worry about the night of their attack, see the kingdom will come. Although there are city residents who managed to escape and tell everything to the government, it is useless, because before the government arrived, the city must have been destroyed, and those criminals will leave before reinforcements arrive. So when the royal army arrives, they will return to the kingdom empty-handed.

" I don't know why he can be so sure... But, now it was already impossible to go back without checking the presence. Who knows what he's saying it could be the truth, and if it's true, so we were very lucky and we could definitely stop the mess that those people would cause. " Murm Elsia in her heart. Although the information came from Xi, the person whose daughter Yumiko trusted the most. But, Elsia in her heart was actually still hesitant with Xi's remarks. Even so, despite his doubts he still led his troops to check the situation of Suoto City. At least if there is no attack in the city of Suoto, he knows the city is safe and good.

" I should at least check it out first. " Self in her heart. " Add speed, we should be as red as we get to the city of Suoto! " Queen Elsia shouted loudly to her entire army. He asked everyone to add their horse running speed to get to Suoto City.

" YES! " Reply everyone in unison. They also added their horses' running speed - each according to the direction of their Queen.

The moon is at its peak, indicating time has become midnight. When the moon is at the top, all the horses driven by Elsia and her soldiers get an increase in running speed and super-fast stamina recovery just by absorbing the cold around, and full moonlight.

Thanks to that, their speed grew even more and passed through such a vast snowfield in an instant. It didn't take long for all of them to get close to Suoto city.

From a distance, Elsia looked at Suoto City which was good - fine and looked like there was no problem in the slightest. Although it had ensured the condition of the city was good - fine from a distance, Elsia did not believe it just like that and preferred to check the state of the city up close to see the situation of the city clearly.

" We have arrived in Suoto city and it seems that nothing has happened wrong, we are too fast or maybe they have not arrived? " Elsia said in her heart while riding her horse towards Suoto city. He asked himself whether the people from the Swift Grimmory Organization had not reached, or had not yet started the action.

Elsia did not know that, and to find out, Elsia needed to examine it closely in order to know more clearly.

BOOOM!!

An explosion occurred inside the city to coincide as Elsia finished her murmur. Strong enough explosions from within the city could be seen from afar, and sound waves could also be heard from where they were.

Smoke from the explosion spread and flew through the sky, sparks spreading around the explosion and burning whatever was around it. Caused a major fire in the city of Suoto and the fire was still spreading.

" Damn it!! It turns out they arrived first. I didn't think when I arrived there would be an explosion of that size! " He said inwardly, angry that Swift's Grimmory Organization had made a huge explosion that had left her vassal city in ruins, and fear that people who live in the city of Suoto will receive bad treatment from the bad people.

" Add speed and start preparing to fight! " Shouted Elsia loudly to her entire army.

The entire army cheered loudly while taking up their weapons.

" YAAA! " The loud cheers of everyone.

Obeying Queen Elsia's orders, all the soldiers moved into the city gates. They see strange and disgusting creatures roaming the city and attacking ordinary citizens. All the soldiers were holding their swords tightly, approaching the disgusting creatures with the horses they rode, slashing them and killing all the strange creatures to death.

However, strangely when they attack these creatures. Even after being split into two parts, the creatures are still alive. The cut parts begin to grow with the flesh, recuperate with what it eats, and as the creatures recover, their size becomes larger and stronger than before.

" What?... What - what the fuck... What are these creatures really? " The words of a soldier who was astonished - astonished to see the strange creature that he had just slashed and felt that he had killed him came back to life and its size became larger.

" GUAAAR! " The creature screamed loudly, making the horse ridden by the soldier into a ticker and frightened, so it was difficult to control and made him fall.

" Agh." he fell, and his horse fled in fear. He left himself alone in front of the strange creature. However, he did not despair, just because his horse ran away did not mean his life would drift.

Seeing a spear nearby, he rolled away from the creature. Trying to keep a distance from him for a while and picking up the spear lying on the floor while preparing to tightly grip his spear.

BOOM UP!

A fierce ice wind passed through him and struck the strange creature. When exposed to the gust of ice wind, the creature's entire body immediately froze.

Because of the ice covering his entire body, making the creature unable to move and can only be silently sculpted. Thanks to the ice wind, the fire around it was also extinguished.

The soldier realized, the wind that just blew earlier was the ability of Queen Elsia. He was also grateful that Queen Elsia could beat him to overcome this strange creature. However, the ice did not last long, the creature trapped in it rebelled and tried to escape from the ice seal.

Seeing that the creature was trying to free itself by destroying the ice that locked it up, the soldier took action. He ran towards the creature, and was about to thrust his spear into the creature before it came off.

Before he thrust his spear, he saw an eye moving in the abdomen of the monster. The soldier did not know what it was, why the eye was moving. However, when looking at it closely, the soldier realized that the eye was giving orders to the other limb to destroy the ice that locked it.

Ai did not stop running, and she held tightly to her spear. While running towards the monster, he said "I don't know what the eyes are but, I'm sure it's your weakness! Die, you disgusting creature! " The soldier shouted loudly, thrusting his spear right into the eyes contained in the stomach of the creature. The spear shattered those eyes, and pierced through the body of the strange creature.

Instantly when the eyes were shattered, the creature stopped moving. With the core that controlled his entire body destroyed, the creature died in an ice cage that locked him up.

" dead... It really is dead... So, those eyes are his weakness? That meant... As long as the core is not destroyed, this strange creature will not die. And to kill him, we have to destroy the point. " Murm the soldier after finishing killing the creature that makes it a hassle. Knowing that this strange creature has weaknesses, he rushed to help others to kill the creature while sharing the information he got after killing the strange creature.

" I must hurry, before things get worse, I must tell them all this! " Said the soldier rushing away to help his comrades.

Creatures - creatures that are formed from the many arrangements of organs - organs of the body of various creatures is called Chimera. These creatures are extremely dangerous killing monsters, the purpose of the Grimmory Switf Organization making this Chimera is nothing but to wreak havoc. Particularly hostile to all life in this world including humans and monsters, making those who created this Chimera the absolute ruler of the world.

Chimera monsters have several unique abilities, and one of them is that they can regenerate their lost limbs very quickly. So that it can cover the wounds they receive, and make the Chimera more difficult to defeat. What's more, Chimera also can't feel pain, no matter how much damage they receive, no pain they get.

Chimeras can grow stronger with each passing day and can also grow larger according to what they eat, and how much they eat. The stronger the Chimera, the more abilities they have. These creatures are very dangerous, and what if they continue to grow and get stronger, at one time one of them can become one of the creatures with a peak existence like Dragon Awakening.

Although Chimera have many abilities and advantages, there are some shortcomings that all Chimera have, namely when they are injured they will grow stronger, but the amount of energy they have will be reduced very drastically. That's because, the regeneration of the Chimera depends on how much stock they have, if all of that is exhausted then the Chimera cannot regenerate again, he said, so it would be easy for people to kill him because over time the Chimera would get weaker.

A few hours passed, in the security of Suoto city, Elsia managed to beat back the people of Grimmory Switf Organization. Thanks to him and his entire army, all the Chimeras were defeated before all the Chimeras became stronger.

" The Queen, all the Chimeras we have overcome, and from this attack many of the townspeople were seriously injured by the Chimera attack. " A soldier came to report to Queen Elsia.

Hearing the report from the soldier, Elsia was really upset, with the Switf Grimmory Organization. Their actions were extremely cruel, even they indiscriminately injured and killed many innocent citizens.

Elsia clenched her hand tightly, restraining her anger at already injuring her citizens.

Realizing that this anger would not solve any problems, Elsia calmed herself down again, and began to behave and act like a leader.

" Take care and first aid to people who are injured, especially ordinary people. To the adventurers in Suoto city, send my message to all of them to help help people who are still trapped in the rubble of buildings, also ask them to remain vigilant of the Grimmory Switf Organization's next attack. " Said Yumiko, telling the soldier, and want his message to be conveyed to everyone clearly without any shortcomings in the delivery.

The soldier knelt down and accepted the task that Queen Elsia had given him. He saluted "Good, Queen. Then I'll let myself go. " Say the soldier with respect. After getting permission from Queen Elsia, he went to carry out his duties to convey the message of Queen Elsia to everyone.

" You can find out... You know they're coming here tonight, kai's really great... But who are you Xi? Why do you know all this? " Elsia murmured in her heart, thinking of Xi who could know the plans of the Evil Organization. At first glance, Xi's whereabouts made her fearful, but seeing her so close to Yumiko also made her happy. However, something certain that he had always thought about, was not to make Xi his opponent. If that was the case, he did not know if he could handle it, but looking at the duel he witnessed with his own eyes, and the pressure from Xi's strength that made him so depressed, Elsia hesitated. If he becomes Xi's opponent, he doubts that he can win and maybe, his country will also collapse.

" A power so strong that it gave me fear... Heh, it seems that it is true, the new generation will one day surpass the old generation. " Elsia said quietly, after finishing saying that she turned around and went to see the condition of the people who were injured in this attack.

The great forest of the Green Forest, where Xi was still in the middle of the merchant Rizel. There are many items - goods steps contained in a special room. Although there were a lot of step items, but none of the many items attracted Xi's attention.

For Xi all the stuff that was there was no use for him.

Meanwhile, Xi only showed his interest in the magic iron that the merchant Rizel spoke of. When he reached the table where the magic iron was stored, Xi asked the merchant Rizel to wrap all the magic iron for him.

" The number is not much, maybe it's because the material is difficult to get. But, it seemed like all this was enough to make some weapons for them. " Murm Xi in her heart, apart from observing the magic iron, Xi also looked towards the other table.

Right at the next table were four different types of stones, and as he looked at them, a system screen appeared before him telling the data of the four stones.

[Fire Stone: A magic stone that contains the fire element inside. Fire stones are usually used by humans to strengthen fire-type magic, and can be used to make weapons, and accessories that contain fire power in them. ]

[Thunder Stone: A magic stone that contains lightning elements inside. Thunder stones are usually used by humans to strengthen lightning-type magic, and can be used to make weapons, and accessories that contain the power of lightning in them. ]

[Earth Stone: A magic stone containing earth/earth elements, often used to make armor and shield. Which if the armor and shield are combined with Earth Stone, then the hardness will increase, so it is not easy to be damaged or destroyed. ]

[Water Stone: A magic stone containing the water element, used by everyone to be used on their accessories in order to gain protection from the water spirits sleeping inside. ]

Reading the four stone data, Xi held his chin and began to think. Other than Thunder Stone, the other three types of stones he had never seen. He had only ever seen one of the Caron members use Thunder Stone as a trap that could stop the movement of a Blood Goat Demon for a few seconds.

The lightning contained within this Thunder Stone was powerful enough to kill a human, but it was different from a monster. There would probably be some kind of monster that would instantly die if struck by the Thunder Stone lightning, but for those powerful monsters it was impossible to directly kill him. Even so, the Thunder Stone was still useful against powerful monsters, because the powerful lightning strike from the Thunder Stone could have a negative effect on the monsters, namely Temporary Paralysis.

Even if the paralysis effect received was only one second, but, in a fight. That one second time is very valuable in determining victory in the fight.

" Elemental stone huh? This is also a good item, I remember the sword Airis does not contain any elements. If I raise the elemental stone on his sword, it will add strength to his sword... Hmmm interesting, I'll buy everything. " Murmuring Xi in his heart, thinking about how he wanted to use elemental stones, he felt that there would be some development in his group.

While coolly thinking about something he should do, merchant Rizel came to him with a map that Xi had ordered earlier.

Merchant Rizel, carrying the map happily, was pleased to see Xi who seemed interested in his goods.

"Hohoho, you seem to have found what you're looking for sir? " Scholar Rizel told Xi.

Xi answered briefly while looking at the map of his order that merchant Rizel brought for him. " yes. "

" I'm sorry to keep you waiting, here are three maps of your order. All the Biomes in Hidden Word floor one to three I have described, there are also some areas that I marked for you, I also, those are the most dangerous places that you should not visit, because in those regions there are powerful monsters that become the ruler. " Sweet merchant Rizel to Xi. Merchant Rizel gave a little explanation to Xi, about some of the places in each Bioma in Hidden Word from the first floor to the third floor. And of course also in the big forest of the Green Forest, there is also a dangerous place that becomes a nest of powerful monsters.

Merchant Rizel also warned Xi not to go to the dangerous place he had marked on the map, merchant Rizel was afraid that if Xi went there, he would lose his precious customer.

" mm, thanks for the warning... I'll remember well. " Reply Xi, he thanked the merchant Rizel for worrying about him.

Xi took the three maps from Rizel, then, he kept all three maps in his inventory. The merchant Rizel who saw this was no longer surprised, since he had already seen Xi take out 20 potions in his space magic, supposedly storing three maps in his space magic was not a problem. And what merchant Rizel thought was true, there was no problem for Xi to keep all three maps even if it was not in space magic.

Seeing Xi, Rizel's merchant asked what goods Xi wanted to buy, seeing Xi who seemed to be waiting for him, Rizel's merchant felt that Xi had found the item in his car.

" So sir, are there any items you want to buy in this place? " ask the merchant Rizel to Xi.

Hearing his question, Xi also quipped, "Yes, I want all of this Magic Steel, and all of these Elemental Stones. " Answer Xi, pointing at the Magic Steel on the table, then referring to the Elemental Stone next to the Magic Steel table.

The merchant Rizel was surprised when he heard it. Since Xi bought all of his magic iron, it was obvious it became a profit for him. Leaving aside the matter of elemental stone, magic steel was harder to obtain and the market price was also more expensive than ordinary iron. That's several times the best iron in town.

" Anything? ... A good I will pack all for you. " Tell the merchant Rizel became nervous from being too happy.

" No need, you just need to count everything. And I'll pay it straight away. "reply back to Xi casually, Xi said that because he thought it would be troublesome and it would be longer if he waited for Rizel's merchant team to pack these materials. He has an inventory, it is easy for him to store and carry materials.

" Ah, okay... " Sweet merchant Rizel. " I forgot that he's not simple... " She murmured in the heart with a sweaty face.

Merchant Rizel immediately counted all the items Xi bought, starting from magic steel then Elemental Stone. Of all the items Xi bought, magic steel was the most expensive, as the price of a single seed could reach 1,000 gold coins. And since there were fifteen pieces of magic steel on the table, it had already cost 15,000 gold coins.

After he finished counting everything, merchant Rizel told Xi the amount to be paid from buying all the goods he had bought.

" Mister, the total is 17,439 gold coins. " Sweet merchant Rizel to Xi.

" From the potion payment that was 20,000 gold coins, 17,439 gold coins, cut the number of gold coins from the potion payment. " Reply Xi.

" Good, I'll do. " Sweet merchant Rizel. " Ehmm speaking - sir, I'm sure there aren't just anyone, but

... Are you interested in having a child? " Advanced merchant Rizel, he asked Xi if Xi was interested in buying a slave.

Rizel's merchant was a great merchant, not just weapons, herbs, materials, which he sold. But also the kids sold it.

Hearing the word slave, Xi was not very interested, seeing that he was now strong enough, and he also had many powerful subordinates. Xi felt that having that slave would only be a burden to him. To his knowledge, the slaves were usually just weak people picked up from the roadside, or children abandoned by his parents. Or even children - children who are sold by parents - because they are unable to care for them due to lack of money.

" A... " When Xi wanted to talk, a message from the system suddenly appeared that made him stop talking. Because in front of him there was a merchant Rizel, Xi also pretended to think to read the system message.

[One of the slaves has a problem and a grudge against someone, help the slave take his revenge and get his present when it is finished ]

" Is this a Quest? " Xi said in his heart. Doubt what he had just read, as it did not look like a Quest in general. However, because this comes from the system, to find out what the content of the Quest Xi must find the slave in question system first.

At first he had no interest in buying slaves, because of the system's instructions, Xi was forced to change his mind.

" I don't know what the situation is, and at the end of this there is also no Quest, I hope it is quite good. Yes, but I can't expect so much, because this doesn't seem like a difficult Quest. " Said Xi in his heart. Although expecting to get a good hadia, but given the level of difficulty Xi did not know, Xi did not expect to get a good item.

" Hmmm, that seems interesting enough, how about you show me what you got? So I can look at it - look at it and choose it. " Say Xi to the Rizel merchant. He asked the merchant Rizel to show him the place where the slaves were kept.

Hearing Xi say that, of course making Rizel's merchant happy, he unceremoniously led the way and showed the place where the slaves were kept.

" Let's come with me sir, I'll show you the place. " Support merchant Rizel excitedly. For him, today he got into a big strand.

He and Xi left the room, heading to where the slaves were kept. More precisely where the slaves were sold.
