The Endless System
Ch 62 — Monster II Attack

“Who are the two of them?”

“They are Yami and Shirou, they joined the guild a few days ago. They are quite surprising because of their development of rank, they are currently in the E.” rank One of the adventurers answered Bearine's question.

Yami and Shirou are pseudonyms for both of them. Yami is Tohrei while Shirou is Ikumi.

“But I did not expect, that their strength was like this. With this kind of power should be the smallest they are A rank or S.”

‘Where did the two of them come from? Why are they in this town? Well, it is not an important question for now, the number of enemies has been quite reduced.’ Inner Bearine.

“Forward! The number of enemies has decreased! With our numbers, those monsters we can conquer!” Bearine called for his orders.

All the adventurers advanced as per orders. They attack with their various skills.

“!”

“!”

“!”

The situation turned around, now the monsters were cornered. The guild master, Bearine was not just silent. He also launched an attack.

“” Bearine traps the monsters in a cage made of earth.

“I pulled my words earlier, fought back with me Ikumi. We show more of our strength. Fighting together at a time like this is more exciting!” Tohrei darted away slashing at the monsters as soon as he finished his words.

“Ya Master.” Ikumi follows Tohrei's orders.

They came back and faced the monsters. The adventurers who were quite troubled continued to fight aided by them.

The cultivators were shocked when they saw the monsters they were facing were slashed and separated into small pieces.

After a while, the entire monster finally collapsed. The adventurers cheered their victory and wearyly rested on the ground.

“Mr Yami, Right?” From behind, someone called out to Tohrei. He immediately turned back to reply.

“Yes? What's up?”

“I'm very grateful for your contribution to this mission, I'm not sure we can clear up this whole monster if there is no lord.” He is Bearine, he is polite to Tohrei because he is aware of Tohrei's contribution to this mission. Moreover, he had a premonition that this adventurer with an age that looked younger than him had the power to surpass him.

“Oh, no need to thank. This is not a troublesome thing.”

“Be..beg?” Bearine could only be sure that Tohrei was very confident in his strength.

“Ah, by the way, is it with this that me and my colleagues can rise in rank due to our contribution in this mission?”

“Of course, but it requires a process of several days. Putting aside the rank increase, you also get another reward in the form of gold coins and that you can take tomorrow. For now we will be busy cleaning the bodies of the monsters.”

“That's great, then I go first. Call me later. I have other important business.” Tohrei immediately went over to Ikumi.

“Ya, sure.” Bearine countered. Bearine thinks that making a good relationship with Tohrei is not bad.

“Master, where are we going now?” Ikumi asked after a few minutes following Tohrei to a place.

“I found a dungeon and it hasn't been found by the guild yet, so we're free to use it. I have not seen the contents in it, but maybe the contents will be interesting.” Tohrei explained while still walking to the destination.

Both he got from the system mission prize. Shortly before he intends to attack the monsters, a mission is given to him. Tohrei also gained a new skill from the mission.

“Ah, we're up.” Tohrei stopped near a cave.

“Is this the dungeon the Master?”

“Yes, I feel the presence of concentrated mana in it.”

“I feel the same way too.”

“Alright let's go in.” They both got into it.

Once inside, the dark scenery made their view limited. So Tohrei used his skill.

‘’ Tohrei uses detection area within just a few dozen meters.

“Five Skeletons a few meters from here. They seem to be not strong at all. Defeat them Ikumi, do it quietly.”

“Good.” Ikumi darted out quickly without a sound. After a while, Ikumi returned.

“What will we do next Master?”

“Continue.” The two of them continued exploring the dungeon. After a few minutes of walking, they found something.

In front of them were very many mana crystals. However, what they saw was not just mana crystals. They saw dozens of skeletons mining the mana crystals.

“The skeletons mined which crystal?” Mana crystals are quite valuable crystals. The crystal could be absorbed to become mana that absorbed it. This crystal can also be used as a catalyst for a magic that cannot be operated by its user.

Unlike the magic crystal, the mana crystal would not lose its energy naturally, only when its energy was forcibly expended would the new crystal mana lose its usefulness.

“What if they mine Master?” Ikumi asked with a plain face.

“Sketones don't have high sense, they can only act if ordered. They're just walking skulls if they're not given orders. Well, there's a tasting for some skeletons undead with higher levels.”

“But what intrigued me, who ordered them?” Tohrei was curious about it. He had a guess, it was possible that they were controlled by lichs who were high-level undead who were of equal or even higher sense than humans.

“See Master! The skeleton was carrying the mana crystal with the wagon.”

“Come we follow.”

“Are we going to bulldoze them all?”

“No, we'll follow him without getting caught. Just hold my hand.” They also hold hands.

“” Instantly both become invisible.

“Yosh, come.” Tohrei whispers.

They walked slowly and followed a skeleton carrying a cart full of mana crystals. They kept following and found something interesting.

The skeleton brought the entire crystal mana into a room. In the room, they saw someone, he was a lich. He seems to be doing something in the room.

“Hehe, in a moment and I will go through it. It only takes a few more moments.” The hoarse voice of the lich was heard by them.
