The death of the governor and his son became a bit too shocking even to the people that is in the gate. I look around to see if someone will attack but they just stared at me.

I wave my hand and the mana hand disappeared. I don’t want to start trouble after this so I just entered the town without minding them. Man this will be hard I need to find another person that I can entrust the governor seat.

After ten minutes I saw the good old inn of my friend, I don’t know why but I think it’s busy but I guess I can find a room if he saw me.

When I entered the inn I immediately saw a muscle body bearded old man, his name is Gando, one of my friends who help me advance in Black World, well he only gave me a free room and the food is not free so that sucks that time and surely he even gave me his one sword in the collection of his. Well the first time I saw the weapon collection even I became astonish as his collection is not just sword, there’s even a spear, bow, etc.

Before I left that time I returned the sword I borrowed and somehow the sword became a holy or some cursed type sword? I forgot because he said that two abilities is inside the sword both holy and cursed. That time I remembered someone’s theory “The holy element is the most useful element to defeat cursed creatures but cursed element is vice versa. Cursed element can kill holy creatures.” That is the only thing I remembered but I know that having two elements inside a sword is okay but not a conflicting element because the sword might explode.

When I walk straight to the counter, Gando saw me and he smiled and laugh which is extremely loud that took all of the people’s attention.

“Azazel! Welcome back!”

“I’m back? Anyway is there any news while I’m gone?”

“Well there is some news but I think it will just spoil your mood.”

“There’s nothing that can spoil my mood now because the new governor hired an assassin to kill the person I assigned in the governor seat for I don’t know years since he sit in that governor job?”

“Well I guess that might be a bit bad but anyway I guess you will be happy that that governor is dead because someone killed him just a minute ago.”

“Well I’m the one who killed him.”

“Hmm, I knew it but anyway the news is two of the member of extinct guild is seen and attack the royal palace just a week ago.”

“Wait what do you mean two of the member of extinct guild? What is his attacks tell me now!”

“Hoh, so you are still interested in the extinct guild. Well his attacks just contain flames, well he’s flying but the flame comes from his wings and his arm is inside the wing. Maybe that’s enough of information you need to know his job?”

“His job might be related to a phoenix, but why did the army let him just havoc in that place? It’s impossible that he can attack without reserve because the palace have one mythical job user too. I remember that his job is related to water dragon so it’s impossible that he will just ignore if someone will attack the royal palace.”

“Yeah and the bad thing is he is found dead. Ice impaled all over his body, somehow the royal family is safe.”

“Well why do I even have to know what’s happening. Do you want me to participate and help the royal family? Well my answer in that is extremely NO! I just enter Black World to save my friend not to fight some legendary guild.”

“If that’s what you want. Oh, by the way the sword that you returned last 4 years, someone wants to buy it but I told him that we can’t sell it.”

“Then? Why can’t you sell it?”

“I can’t take the sword out of the pedestal and even someone who has a job of sword master can’t get near it. They said that the sword might be bind in the owner or the sword have a soul. Well you can go down there directly because there’s a line at the back of the inn. If you can take it out I will be happy but if you don’t want I’ll be happy too because I can earn more money.”

“Wait don’t tell me when you discovered that it has a soul you put a poster in the guild hall that you have that?”

“Yep.”

He nods while smiling. Damn this guy got lucky because of me!

“Well let me check it, if it really is bind or have a soul and accepts me then I can use it. I don’t want to use mana too much because it’s too tiring.”

I walk towards the cellar where Gando hides his collection and saw a line straight to the back door. When I appeared through the kitchen the eye of the people in the line focus at me.

I just ignored them and walk straight down the cellar. There I saw a person trying very hard just to take the sword out of the pedestal. After a minute he gave up and just walk away.

Just as the guy was about to touch the hilt of the sword I grab it faster and raise the sword as if normal. I can’t hear anything out of the sword, maybe the soul is not true and the bind is really in me.

‘I’m true!’

When I heard that voice I look around but didn’t see anyone who talk. I look at the sword in my hand, am I imagining things now?

I felt someone gazing at me and when I turn around I saw the people on the line looking at the sword. Well how can they be like that if they saw someone just take the sword like he just forgot something.

Once again I ignored them and just walk straight upstairs. When I got upstairs I found Gando.

“Hey Gando, I got the sword now so please give me a room for two, by the way give me a set of meal I’m hungry right now, I didn’t it lunch earlier.”

“Okay, by the way li’l Lily is in the dining hall eating right now.”

“Seriously that little girl, she didn’t even think of inviting me before she eat. Well I’m going to her.”

After we eat I sleep till afternoon then left the Black World for a while.

Here I am inside the Osmet mansion again and thank goodness Frea is attending her school.

I walk upstairs going to Frankie’s room. I heard a footstep right in the corner but let me just ignore it, I need to know Frankie’s location right now.

As I’m walking I saw a Zuli, and what a luck she’s in her bath robe. What kind of extraordinary luck do I have to encounter her just when she finish taking a shower? The answer is extremely bad as she just stared at me without moving in there.

“Yo… sorry for encountering you?”

After a few seconds she didn’t reply so I just walk pass her. Seriously why is she always looking at me? I can feel her gaze following me even when I’m a bit far from her.

After I encounter Zuli I arrived at Frankie’s room, I wish he’s not depressed and hug me again. I can’t take the embarrassment and might beat the hell out of him if his depressed once again.

I knock on the door and heard a rustle noise and some footstep and the door is opened. I saw Frankie in a better look and once he saw me he’s surprise.

“Frankie I forgot to ask you where you are currently so if I may ask where is the nearest city you are in?”

“Well I don’t know if I still need your help because I got inside the city of Frito the capital of Fradel.”

“Oh that’s good then I don’t need to go have a problem of worrying if you will die or not now right?”

“Yes.”

“Then I will go home.”

Seriously I waste my time getting inside the Black World and now he doesn’t need help? I can’t leave now or I will let Lily once again suffer. I don’t want her to suffer being alone again, I can’t entrust her to Loreiya because she will just sexual harass me.

Now I should just go home now and then enter the Black World again. Going back again is not too late I might just travel the whole world so Lily and I can enjoy after 4 years.

I just walk through the corridor without minding the feeling being watch by cameras.

*Boom*

The explosion sound startled me and I look around to see what happened but instead of fire I saw a crack in the air. I walk towards the crack and tried to touch it.

“Get away from that!”

I look at my back just to see a girl with a bird at her shoulder. The bird looks like a phoenix that I saw when I am inside the Black World but this one it’s not flaming.

*Boom*

This time I felt an earth quake and I once again look at the crack which became bigger and in the middle of it there’s a hole.

“Goddamn it get away no-“

This time my hearing is gone and a hand that is extremely black came out of the hole and touch my head.

*Crack *

“AHHHH!”

My body collapse and I clutch my head extremely hard.

This really hurts! Someone help me! I can’t endure this I feel like my head is opening!

I rolled in the ground as the pain became stronger. My vision is blurring as I saw a girl and the bird in her shoulder suddenly ignite and began breathing fire at the crack.

My surrounding suddenly distorts and I suddenly appeared in the middle of the town. The girl is with me and her face suddenly change to astonishment as she look at me. Damn why do I feel like her face is familiar to me.

[Van Rune, an outsider that killed a dragon, an outsider who have the job of mana controller.]

This voice! Azazel! How the hell did you survive and how can you talk inside my head!

[Well do you think I can survive your attack that almost obliterate my soul? Hah, are you underestimating me Van Rune? Do you remember that I’m an ancient apocalypse dragon? Do you think I didn’t survive the ‘Holy War’ for nothing?]

Then how the hell can you talk inside my head!

[You absorb my power then you’re asking that? Well you even use my name. Well now that you got touch by Crio you think you can survive getting your existence erase?]

What!? How did Crio know where I hide!?

[Do you think that person can’t find where you hide? She almost killed me but instead I injured her and we struck a truce. But before that you should worry the person who has the power of the yeti that is going to this direction.]

What? Power of the yeti?

[I won’t talk to you anymore I will take care of Crio’s power in a second to stop your head ache.]

After a second the head ache that almost feel like someone is cracking my head disappear. I don’t know why but Azazel the dragon that I killed years ago is inside my head. When I entered the Black World that time I learned that I have the same name of the ancient apocalypse dragon of this world. Well after I got strong I tried to kill him but it was a close call as when I use my strongest attack it almost destroyed my soul as it is a double edge attack.

*tsiiii*

I look at my side and the girl is still looking at me, why do I feel like I met her somewhere she really looks familiar but let me ignore her this time because a person that has the job related to yeti is here.

When I look to the sound where the ice is forming I saw a brawny guy, topless, I think he wants to show his muscle to the people but how the hell can he withstand that cold. He is carrying a spear that is releasing an unpleasant aura.

I stand up stretch my body and just look at the guy without minding the girl again. I release the mana that I’m suppressing, I can’t underestimate someone because I might die.

“Master what’s happening!?”

I look at the direction where the voice came from but that move is a bad one. The brawny guy dash at me and swing the spear to my left.

“[Mel, Tau, Rien] Fire Fang!”

I waved my hand as a fire that is in a shape of fang shot towards him. The sudden attack of magic made the brawny guy took a defense stance. The Fire Fang that I cast collide in his spear but it just disappeared.

“Hoh, the coldness in your surroundings can drop the temperature of the Fire Fang.”

“I don’t know who you are but you should leave because this town and that mountain is an obstacle in our mission and I don’t want to fight someone strong like you because you are a waste.”

“Tsk, so the Extinct Guild really wants to have a war even to me. Then if they want a war I will give it to them!”

“I don’t understand what you mean but if you want to hinder me I will kill you now.”

“[First seal unlock] Strength of the apocalypse dragon!”

When I said the apocalypse dragon part he flinch. Now he knows who I am, I will destroy them because they want to destroy my mountain!

I suddenly appeared in his right side which surprise him. When I grab his arm he suddenly smiled as I feel my hand go numb, I think he thought that I will become an ice statue but being a mana controller almost made me an elemental mage, I can control almost all elements when I control my mana and one of the power of Azazel has a high element resistance.

Just as he was about to stab me at my side I pulled his arm out of his body as blood spray all over me. I didn’t just stop as I grab his other arm and kick his stomach extremely hard which made his arm separate once again in his body.

I just discard his arm at my side and look at him.

“Ahhh!”

His scream is unpleasant to hear but I don’t care, I now know their motives when Crio touch my head. She didn’t plan to erase me but deliver a message from Core, the person who is using his body as a core of this world to stop the Black World to emerge out of the universe, and when the Black World emerge out of the universe the gods that is trapped inside the Black World will escape and will start killing every race out there.
