The King Of System
ch.36 Barriers

« Quest has been given: Find the mastermind behind the murder of Cathrine pavolia and Elora. »

"Well without you telling me I'm gonna find the mastermind of it all." Daniel thought after closing back the quest screen that suddenly appeared in front of him.

"But you are not worried, the news of the death of the noble Cathrine and her bodyguards has not yet spread." Ormas said in a blanket of fear of being punished by death on the spot by the person in front of him.

"Calm down, get the horses ready and we'll leave right now." Daniel said as he stood up from his seat and directly walked towards the exit followed by Ormas who could only be silent behind him

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

DANIEL POV

"Are you serious, not even a day you wake up, and you are now traveling again, as good as resting first a few days here." Saila said that with a clear worried look.

"My body is different from ordinary humans, so there's nothing you need to worry about." Reply to me who is currently walking right next to her Saila heading out of the palace.

"But you are still human."

"God..." I immediately stopped walking and everyone stopped too, after which I looked at Saila and kissed her forehead immediately making her fall silent for a moment, "There's nothing to worry about."

"All right, your majesty." Reply with his head down.

I also without answering directly walked back as well as Saila, even Ormas like her was not surprised to see what happened I did earlier. Besides what I heard from someone, if in this world an emperor or king is commonplace if you have a wife or a concubine.

"Then I'll be gone, maybe we'll be long to meet, so keep in mind the task I gave you." I said that I started riding the horse after saying that sentence.

"I will do my best for you, your majesty." Reply Saila with great enthusiasm.

"It seems you are not at all saddened to see my departure." Looking hard at Saila.

"Not so." He also began to lower his head.

After hearing the answer, I immediately ran the horse I rode at full speed. Although this was inside the city, I had no trouble driving it at all, as the citizens immediately pulled over when they saw dozens of soldiers and me speeding towards them.

"How long are we going to get to this speed?" Ask Ormas who is currently driving next to me.

"Maybe about 3 glorious days." His reply although his voice was not too clear due to wind gusts from riding speed.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

POV AUTHORS

At night, Daniel decided to rest. In the middle of the forest with only a campfire as lighting they make the atmosphere quite gripping, moreover, this time they passed through a path that was reported to be deadly even though it was a very fast path to return to the capital.

"Ter did you hear me?" Daniel asked in his mind while sitting leaning against a tree.

"I can hear you, sir, but I can't feel your own again." Answer Ter.

"Good sir." Answer Ter.

"It's pretty boring here, mini map open." Screens with various dots also popped up around Daniel.

But what surprised Daniel more was, he was currently and his entourage was surrounded by 20 red dots. Even Daniel himself is currently bringing 80 elite soldiers with him which can be said to defeat dozens of ogres even once.

"Your Majesty, it seems to have been surrounded." Ormas said, who was in front of me and rushed to stand up and ordered the other soldiers to prepare for a sudden attack.

"Well, maybe this can be done as a warm-up after a few days there is no fight at all." Daniel then stood up and stretched his hand upward.

The atmosphere became very quiet, the night wind gusts could be heard in their ears. Whatever enemies the soldiers were bound to fight, even willing to sacrifice their lives for their king, Daniel.

By forming a circular formation with Daniel in the midst of them, making the formation was impossible to break through because the soldiers had already taken cover behind a shield with a spear that had a height of 2 meters.

However, when the soldiers were focused on what was behind the forest. One soldier suddenly died just like that then an explosion occurred around him making some of his other soldiers injured as a result of the explosion.

It was just a slash from a sword that caused an explosion.

"Beware your majesty, it's likely that they're using a magic sword." Said Ormas who was next to him.

Hearing the magic sword, Daniel was immediately surprised, because this was the first time he heard there was a magic sword. Even in the shop never sell it, after all Ai had said that the shop only sells something that does not exist in the world.

"Get your formation again!" Shouted Ormas.

Hearing that, they rushed over to refine their formation again by bracing themselves with each other. However, a very fast attack was launched again by their opponents, making a soldier fall again with an unformed body.

"It looks like this is the strongest enemy I've encountered so far." Daniel thought after seeing his enemy can kill someone without looking like himself.

Although he can currently kill 20 mysterious people who continue to kill his soldiers easily, but Daniel looks just as silent as planning something or there is something else he wants to do.

"Y-Your highness, if this continues we will be slaughtered." Ormas who saw his soldiers being killed easily complained to Daniel.

"Certainly? is there something you want to do? aren't you the soldiers guarding a king?" Daniel who heard what Ormas said was a little annoyed, because he felt he was only used as a tool for the killers of his people.

"Pardon my noble disrespect."

Daniel did not answer, he just watched the killings that continued to occur to his soldiers until half of the troops that Daniel brought were even more thinning.

And then, the twenty men who kept killing Daniel's soldiers began to show themselves.

He had an upright body like a human, a height that reached 2 meters with stout muscles made it very intimidating, as well as red eyes with green skin made him look like he was not a human.

They wore an armor of only clothes and clasped a round shield in their left hand and a sword that continued to emit fire in their right hand.

"H-Hobgoblins."
