Chapter 37 – Domun Cave
As we hear the cries from further in the cave, I saw that the path was blocked by stones covered in acidic coating. I can feel that one of them had their life force waning so I immediately cast
NegaRace:Acid Eel, Unique Magical BeastGender-Level:193Element:Poison, DarkExistence:A-C
It seems that it was going to release something from its mouth so I immediately rushed towards it and smashed the side of the mouth in to the ground. As I felt that the humans in this room won’t be able to survive its attack. I gripped its mouth to prevent it from opening. I signaled Zala to help me kill the beast by directing her to slice its sacs from the parts of the body I am pointing.
The acid stored in its mouth subsides as it flows out from the cuts of its body. As I felt that it was going to explode I immediately punch it right through the floor as it felt hollow. The beast went through the floor as I then jumped off of it. I cast
Nillie: What are you doing to Yora!!!
Nillie panicked seeing Yora suddenly submerged in water. Rezald then patted her shoulders and grinned.
Rezald: don’t worry Nillie, I know that spell it is an A class spell
Nillie: I-I see… then thank you…
Mosie: Thank you… thank you… thank… you… if… it wasn’t for you Yora would’ve…
Nelus: You’re welcome.
I then look at the bunch with a gentle smile, all of them became flustered and looks away.
Rezald: Anyways… who are you people?
Nelus: My name is Nelus and this is Zala. Right now we are trying to find Nawons.
Rezald: Us too! Can we come with you?
Rezald said with sparkling eyes looking at the man in front of him with reverence.
Zala: Isn’t it rude for us to introduce ourselves and for you to not to?
Zala said with a grin while Rezald made an embarrassing expression.
Rezald: Ah! Sorry about that. My name is Rezald. This swordsman is Yora, that girl with green hair is Mosie and the one with blue hair, in the cleric outfit is Nillie.
Nelus: (God’s Eyes.)

Nelus: It seems that none of you are above A rank… why do you want to hunt something such as a Nawon?
Rezald: Our village is plagued…
Mosie: Rezald!?
Rezald: They saved us… we can trust them…
Mosie: If you say so…
Rezald: It is called Mind Corrosion Virus…
Nelus: I see… but the Nawon here are just for mind protection not mind healing… once the virus has entered the mind then Mind Protection cannot stop it…
Nillie: What!? Then what did we come all the way here for…
All of them were looking hopeless including the swordsman that just woke up.
Nelus: But that does not mean that there isn’t a cure.
Yora: Is that true!?
Nelus: Yes… here.
I opened up my space storage as there eyes went wide open in surprise.
Rezald: Is that… the legendary… Spatial Magic!?
Nelus: Oh? You know of it?
Rezald: Only a select few have them… mister may I ask what rank are you?
Nelus: X rank why?
As Mosie almost fainted Nillie supported her. Rezald was trembling but he was not afraid… he was extremely excited. Zala then sighed with a wry smile… she then whispers.
Zala: Nelus… Those who have reached X rank are nearly revered like that of the Gods so it isn’t really something that is easily told in these mortal lands…
Nelus: I see…
Nillie: S-sorry for shouting earlier.
Nillie said as she kneeled.
Nelus: Rise, pay it no mind also…
I then took out a magic storage crystal from my storage. I then used an X rank spell Restore on it and filled it to the brim. I then handed it to Nillie.
Nillie: Isn’t this… I can’t accept something as precious as this!!
This story originates from a different website. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.
Nelus: Don’t worry it is just a low class artifact.
Nillie: (A S class artifact that is worth black elder wood coins is low!?)
Rezald: L-l-look!! It is completely filled! Mister!! Are you trying to kill yourself!? No one has managed to completely fill an S class magic storage crystal before in an instant!? Even an X rank mage will at least need a week to completely fill it!
Zala: You don’t need to worry about that. This guy here has a nearly inexhaustible amount of mana…
All-of-them in unison: Ahaa…
Nelus: With this it will be enough to cure the village and have some left just in case.
Mosie: But we don’t have any money to give you or anything for that matter…
Nelus: You don’t need to pay me anything…
Nillie: Th-then… would I be enough of a compensation?
Zala: Wha!?
Nillie then approached Nelus while she puts her hand on his chest with a hot and flustered face.
Nelus: …
Rezald: Nillie are you serious?
Nillie: Y-yes…
Mosie: Nillie! Think about it! You are just 17 for heaven’s sake!
Nillie: I have made up my mind! I will become his and he can do anything he wants with me.
Zala: N-Nelus do something!
Nelus: Your name is Nillie right?
Nillie: Eh?
Nelus then patted her head, with a gentle smile.
Nelus: You are young and I won’t take away your freedom. Find someone who can make you happy as I am afraid that I am unable to do so. I just did what I wanted to do and I never expected nor wanted any compensation for my actions.
Nillie looks at his face for a second then, calms down and pouted…
Nillie: Don’t treat me like a kid! Have it your way! You’ll see! One day when I’m old enough you’ll see how beautiful I had become and you’ll regret it.
Calice: (Hahh… I thought there will be another one… Lord Nelus’ charms can’t really be underestimated…)
Nelus: …
Zala: Phew…
Seeing Nillie’s determination and Zala’s reaction something snapped within Yora as he shouted towards Zala…
Yora: I like you!! Will you become mine?
Hearing that, Mosie went pale as she was close to fainting. Zala then sighed as if it was a common occurrence…
Zala: I’m sorry but I can’t accept…
Yora: Is it because of him!?
Rezald: Yora, calm dow…
Yora: I’m sorry Rezald if Nillie has the determination to say that then I can too!!
Nillie: What have I done… hahh…
Zala: …
Yora: Then I challenge you to a duel!
Nelus: I accept.
Zala: Nelus!!?
Nillie then approaches Nelus and whispers.
Nillie: Please go easy on him…
Nelus: I will…
In the middle of the cave, Yora readies his stance as he held up the two edged sword pointing towards Nelus. Everyone was tense as Nelus and Yora stood still for a long time. Yora then dashes at Nelus.
Yora: Iyaaaahh!!!
Nelus: …
Yora then slashes as his sword glowed a faint light. It was the skill Heavy Slash. Nelus then calmly stood. Seeing this, Yora was further agitated. Nelus then grabs the blade with two finger and completely stops it. Suddenly he disappears.
Yora: Ahh!?
Nelus: Your footing is off… move it further to the left as it needs to be further apart so that when you slash your sword, no strength will leave your body as you return to your stance and lets you have less openings.
Zala: Hahh… here we go again…
Mosie: U-uhmm… Big sis Zala…
Zala: Zala is fine.
Mosie: Th-then Z-Zala… what is happening?
Zala: Ever since I told him that duels are for helping each other learn from one another… even if I duel him, sometimes he gives me advice and they are quite helpful ones at that…
Rexald: Ohh!! As expected of someone of great caliber such as him.
Yora: Stop that! Battle me seriously!!!
Nelus: Don’t you want strength to protect those important to you?
Yora then staggers and remembers the incident just a moment ago his face then flared a sudden determination as he bows towards Nelus.
Yora: Yes teacher! Please instruct me!!!
Nelus: Alright, then if you do this…
Yora: Ohh!!?? With that I can focus on the opponents other than the ones in front of me!
Nelus: That is right.
All of them watch the two with wry smiles.
Nillie: Hahh… I think Yora has forgotten the reason why he asked for a duel in the first place…
Rezald: I’m so envious… I want someone to teach me magic…
Zala: Then go… Nelus is more proficient in magic anyways… he can also teach you.
Rezald: R-really?
Mosie: As expected of a sword training addict such as Yora…
Zala: What’s with that expression? Do you love him?
Zala said with a mischievous grin.
Mosie: Eh!? Then what about you! You like Nelus don’t you?
Mosie said provokingly as Zala just looks towards Nelus with a smile.
Mosie: …
Nillie: Do you wish to be like that?
Mosie: Yeah… I wish I was that honest…
Nelus: Don’t just rely on one single spell, variety will help you be more diverse as it will help you grow and expand prospects that are possible. For example, to learn the S class spell Aqua Razor what spells do you need to learn first?
Rezald: I-is it the spells Aqua Whip and Aqua Slice?
Nelus: That is correct, there are few conditions to learn other spells easily and that is why it is better to start with the basics and move farther on.
Rezald: That isn’t like what the teachers had taught us… they said that you can just learn spells that corresponds to your Rank. Like my teacher with an S rank within 10 years he managed to use the S rank spell Gaia Fissure.
Nelus: That is true if it was of the other beings with higher mana capacity. As for you and other humans they need to learn the basic so that when you learn the spell it would cost less mana. Did you know that if that teacher of yours does what I have just said in just a few months he can easily learn it including other earth element S class spells?
Rezald: …
Rezald was speechless; he was starting to understand that the one in front of him has an innumerable amount of knowledge in the fields of magic. He then clenched his fist and was determined…
Nelus: As for you, where did you learn your swordsmanship?
Yora: In a knight school.
Nelus: Find a swordsmaster to train you instead. It would be a much efficient way to learn. I can feel potential in you.
Yora: B-but something like that will cost a fortune!
Nelus: Then take this and give it to Taln.
Yora: Taln!? You know her!? The Elegant Swordsmaster!?
Nelus: Yes, she was an acquaintance from a while back. Her style won’t fit yours so tell her to help you find a proper master…
Yora: Thank you teacher!
Zala: I think we should wait for them to finish first…
Nillie: Yeah…
Mosie: Hahh… really… those boys…
