The Dungeon Master's
Chapter 58 - Elin Vs
In an instant, Elin immediately opened the menu window before her. He alerted Eric through a short message on the friendship menu. Of course this can only be done by the Player who can give the Player an absolute advantage of information when compared to NPCs.
But of course, some NPCs with high level intelligence understood that and were able to utilize it for their own benefit.
Like Leo.
He noticed that Elin was sitting quietly in the corner of Tavern and was seen fiddling with the menu window in front of him. Whether because of his instincts or his experience, Leo understands if he has to let the little girl move as she pleases first. His goal? Of course to make him careless.
‘Damn it! Goddamnit! Goddamnit! Though Dungeon Origin had just finished a few days ago! Why did they get here?! What's more…. I have to return quietly.’ immediately Elin thought to herself.
Elin pretends to continue eating and drinking in the Tavern while waiting for Leo to leave with the man who previously said he would show him the way.
A few tens of minutes have passed.
‘I think it's enough right?’ Elin thought to herself. He had also received a reply from Eric who said that He would remain hidden in the Origin Dungeon. The most important thing right now was to keep the Dungeon's whereabouts a secret.
‘Although me and Eric died a few times, it was no big deal as long as the Dungeon was still well hidden.’ Elin said in her heart as she got up from the wooden chair.
He immediately came out of the Tavern but did not lead to the Alpa Mountains, but to the Hige Village.
The road to Hige Village from Torka City was quite quiet and mostly a meadow. Some trees are on the side of the road and sometimes there is also a forest. Crossing paths with both Player and NPCs at night was extremely rare.
But Elin was aware….
Since a few minutes of walking he has been followed by someone who is none other than Leo.
‘Good, keep following me! Getting further away from..’.
Having not had time to finish his words inwardly, Elin was struck by the blade of the sword that was pointing towards her body.
“Damn it! What are you doing!” Shouted Elin.
Leo who heard that was quite surprised because Elin was able to dodge her sword.
“I'm pretty sure you have a relationship with Summoner. If you want to cooperate with us, I will ask for forgiveness to Goddess Celestine for you.” Reply Leo.
“Hah? What are you maxing...” Elin's eyes were wide open after seeing Leo take off his silver mask.
Yes, since inside the Tavern, Elin was unable to see the status of that Inquisitor. Having already experienced it when meeting Neo, he was not so surprised. But even more terrifying was the fact that the status that was hidden behind the mask was….
[Name : Leo Celestica]
[Price: High-Human]
[Level :282]
[Rebirth: 4 times]
Health Point: 138,195
Mana Point 367520
Stamina Point: 48,790
Attack Power 7651
Magic Power 11589
Defense: 3,118
Status :
[Information blocked by an item!]
‘Hah?! Wh-what does this mean?!’ Elin was surprised.
‘NPC doing Rebirth?!’
Although almost all the features of this world are available to NPCs and Players, of course, to access them is very difficult. Especially the Rebirth feature. The main requirement is to reach Level 151. For NPCs who had limited lives and ages, they would first pass before reaching that level.
But if they ever reach that level once, they will be reborn just like the name suggests. Rebirths. It can also be called rebirth.
NPCs doing Rebirth would restart from Level 1 as well as return to being babies. But all their knowledge and abilities will remain intact. Includes a Growth Point bonus.
But unlike the Player who has access to the system menu window feature, NPCs are not able to use the system. Therefore, the Growth Point they obtained would be allocated automatically.
“If seen from your facial expression, it seems that you are able to see something behind this mask huh?” Ask Leo with a smile.
“Well, whatever it is, you will receive punishment for allying with the enemies of mankind. May Goddess Celestine forgive you.” Continue Leo.
Increased penalty? Will be determined by the God or Goddess they serve.
Then are these Gods and Goddesses NPCs?
Yes, they were the highest level NPCs who possessed the highest authority as well as the extreme intelligence of the Super Computer Genesis. But it's a story for another time. Now it's….
‘Ttraangg!!’
‘Claangg!!’
The sound of a clash between Elin and Leo's Crystal Dagger sounded quite loud.
Despite wearing heavy armor, Leo moves much faster when compared to Elin who is an Assassin type. Not only that, the attack power, endurance, magic ability, everything far exceeded Elin.
“Armor Breaker!” Shouted Elin while swinging her two daggers towards Leo.
Unexpectedly, Leo simply kept silent without trying to fend off his attacks.
[You have done 11 damage!]
[You have done 23 damage!]
[You have done 7 damage!]
[You have done 9 damage!]
[Fighting defense decreased by 20%]
[Divine Blessing of Celestine has been active!]
[Decreasing defense has been held back by the opposing Skill!]
“Damn it! What the fuck?!” Shouted Elin annoyed at the system notification that was before him. He did not believe that he who had reached level 144 was even only able to deal 2-digit damage!
“Do you understand the difference in strength between the two of us? Give up immediately and tell me everything.” Said Leo calmly as he sheathed his sword. Just from the swordfight just now, Leo had understood that the chances of him losing or losing Elin was 0%.
“Hah! You can kill me as you please but I will never say anything to you!” Shouted Elin retaliating against Leo's threat.
“Are you sure about that? I've obtained some information that Summoner's hideout is in the Alpa Mountains row. I just need to tell the Archbishop and all the kingdoms of the world will send their armies to bury you. Besides...”.
“Information Extraction...” Said Leo softly while opening his right palm. Instantly, a blue-colored light enveloped the palm of the hand.
Without the need to use his Observer skill, Elin already knew what the skill meant. Forced information retrieval.
“Mana Zone : Depletion!”
Just before Leo's right hand touched Elin's head, the entire place within a 15-meter radius around Elin dried up to Mana. Both Elin and Leo lost all of their mana instantly. Leo's skill failed to activate.
Without wasting much time, Elin immediately took advantage of this situation.
“Hahaha…. See you, Inquisitor! Next time I'll beat you!” Shouted Elin loudly while cutting her own neck many times. Leo's sword that was still sheathed on his waist was not fast enough to stop Elin's actions.
[You have received 4,591 damage!]
[You have received 3,893 damage!]
[You have received 4,211 damage!]
[You have received 5,427 damage!]
[You are dead!]
[Your level is reduced by 5 levels!]
[You can't access Re:Life for 24 hours of real-world time!]
