Chapter 3 : The Master of Etna Forest
Unicorn Corp. Headquarters was located at the edge of the city, it was in a huge skyscrapers with a small square in front of the building, many foreigners were taking a break at the square while talking merrily with each other, Erica was sitting on one of the beautiful ornaments benches while holding a lunch box, she just finished her work and about to ate her lunch when a man walked towards her.
“Miss Erica, its rare to see you at the main office, are you here for work or to see your mother.”Said the man smiled at her.
The man was around his fourty, wearing an expensive suit, a sharp black eyes, short black hair, white skin.
“Director Han Seo Kim, I just finished my work, are you on break too?”
It was also rare for Erica to saw director Han Seo Kim, usually she came to main office just to finished some documents and then went straight back home, she only saw director Han Seo Kim at annual shareholders meeting or at a party.
“Just call me director Kim, I am here because I heard that you were eating lunch here from your mother.”
“Then?”
Erica thought that there must be a reason why director Kim came to see her.
“Well, I heard that you have been playing Royal Road since the official release, I
just want to hear your opinion about it.”
It had been two months since the official release of Royal Road, everywhere people were talking about Royal Road, news, magazine, newspaper, talk show`s everyday they were talking about Royal Road, now there was no one who didn’t know about Royal Road
“I think, its fine.”She said it plainly.
Director Kim frowned and said “Is that all, I mean how about the quest, hunting monsters, and others, what do you think about then.”
Erica didn’t know what to say about that, for 2 months or 8 months game time, she only read books in the Babel tower, to begin with she didn’t have any interest in quest, hunting, or anything in particular, she played Royal Road because she had nothing to do in the real world. And thanks to Babel Tower she had a lot of books to read.
“.... It have a lot of books to read.”
Director Kim didn’t know how to react to her answer, usually people would feel excited when they played Royal Road and began talking about their adventures.
He knew that some genius people were usually had a difficult personality, they tend to do something that the normal people thought as an abnormal behavior or strange thing, but he never thought that Erica was one of them.
“So... how about you tell what did you do for this 2 months?”
“Reading.”
“Is that all, nothing else?”
“Yes.”She nodded
He couldn’t believe that she spent her 8 months game time for only reading,
Ah, so this is her difficult personality, the only thing she have interest is in books.
(Haa ....well I guess it’s better than that guy personality.)
“Miss Erica, may I ask something strange.”
He was actually reluctant to ask this, but it was for her sake.
“Did you have any friends?”He asked with a serious face.
Erica thought about it for a bit, someone she could call a friend... , no, there was no one she could call a friend, since she was little she never really talked or played with the other kids or her classmates, she spent all of her time to read, but that was only till recently, till she met a girl on her way to school.
Anna Wintersand that was the girl name that Erica met, since that day whenever she went to school Anna always asked her to ate lunch together, she also exchanged her cell phone number with her, so yes she had a friend or so she thought, she didn’t really know if Anna could be categorize as friend or not, because she never had any friends before.
“I guess.”
“She plays Royal Road right?”
Anna told her that she had gotten her own capsule last month, so yes she played Royal Road.
“Yes.”
“Good, then asked her if you can join her party, if you join her maybe you can
find something that more interesting than reading a book. Ah I should go now, the break time is almost over, I will ask you again about your opinion, have a good day.”He walked into the building.
After eating her lunch, Erica didn’t go back to her office but went straight home, on her way back she thought about her conversation with director Kim, to find something that more interesting than reading a book, she thought it might be interesting.

“Welcome back my lady.”
When Aria appeared Babel had flying near the location where she had logout before, it seemed that he had been waiting for her
“What’s wrong?”She asked.
“I just want to inform you that the barrier magic had been casted over the tower.”
A few days ago Babel told Aria that he had been preparing a large magic circle that would be used as a barrier to conceal the tower, it seemed that he had finished the magic circle.
“Is that all?”
She didn’t believe that he was waiting for her just for that, the barrier wasn’t an immediate need, because of the nature of the forest and the monsters there shouldn’t be anyone that dared to go into the forest, at least for now, so there must be something else that he hadn’t told her.
“Yes my lady, the master of the Etna forest want to have an audience with you.”
The master of the Etna forest was a title that was given to the strongest monster in the Etna forest, because of it’s strength, it was became the ruler of the forest.
Not only in Erna forest, in various place in the continent, there were many masters that rule over the mountains, forests, seas, deserts, and many other place, they weren’t a boss monsters, they stood above them, basically they were the boss of boss monsters.
Aria never thought that the master would want an audience with her, since she had come to this forest, she never went outside the tower, she always read books, so she had no idea why the master which she had never met want an audience.
“Where is it?”
“She is waiting for you in the throne room.”
Aria was about to teleport herself into her chamber when Babel asked her if he could follow her because he had a bad feeling about this, she nodded and the familiar sound like a bell rang.

Aria was puzzled with Babel status and skills, why his level was only level one and he only had a few skills and magics, wasn’t he supposed to be much more powerful than this, he had lived for more than a millennia, how could his level was one.
Babel was apologizing to Aria because he didn’t report his condition, he explained that all of his power and skills/magics was gone after he used that magic that move her realm (I will name this magic Dimension Teleportation, so from now on I will use that name), as a side effect he lost all of his power and most of his skills and magics were gone.
Aria nodded her head as a sign of understanding, she thought that there was no way that he would be fine after using a magic which even goddess Aria must pay a price for using it for the second time.
Aria walked through the teleportation circle and appeared in her chamber, she walked through the hallway that connected her chamber and the throne room, inside the throne room a woman about 20 years old, she had a beautiful face with a dark green long hair, dark green eyes and white skin, she was also wearing dark green robe, everything about this woman were dark greens except her white skin.
Aria sat down on the throne and asked “You are the master of Etna forest?”
“My name is Nedia, I am the master of the Etna forest.” Replied the women
“So Nedia, What can I do for you today?”
“Today I am here to welcome you as on of the forest dwellers of Etna forest... and to challange you.”
Nedia tone wasn’t that of mocking or taunting Aria, her eyes were filled with fighting spirit, and was ready to fight anytime, Aria could tell from her expression that she was purely just want to fight with Aria.
“Why did you want to challange me?”
Aria didn’t understand why Nedia who was obviously stronger than her, want to fight with her who was a level 1 player.
“To decide who was the master of the Etna forest, I know who you are since the day you came to this forest, I had felt your aura from my lair, we the masters are the strongest being on their respective territory, if there was someone stronger than us lived in the same territory, we must decide who is the strongest. You have lived in this forest for 8 months now, so you are now officially one of the forest dwellers, and now we must fight to decide who was the master of Etna forest.”
A fighting spirit which was emitting from her body was insanely strong, a fighting spirit usually couldn’t be seen by naked eyes, but right now Erica could see it clearly, a dark green aura was coming out of her body, and it was even getting stronger and stronger, if it wasn’t for her divinity stats that was very high, she would have died hundreds of times already.

Title : The Master of Etna Forest.
???
Aria actually wanted to refuse this quest immediately, she didn’t care who was the strongest or who would become ruler of Etna forest, but when she read that she couldn’t refuse it, she couldn’t do anything about it but to accept the quest.
(Haa... my first quest was also an insane just like my class, how can I fight a master class monster on level 1, maybe I should really consider to delete this character and make a new one.)
“Well then, we can’t fight here, let’s go to my lair, there were a lot of space there.”
Nedia created a teleportation circle on the floor and stepped inside it, Aria followed her and stepped inside the circle.
Aria now was in a dark room, her eyes couldn’t see well in this dark room so she activate her True Eyes skill, whenever she activate this skill her eyes turned to golden, now she could see clearly, this roon seemed to be a room in a cave, the wall was a dark brown stone cave, there were not to many objects in here, only a simple wooden table and a chair with a few shelves of book on the corner of the room, there was no lamp or candle in here, she wonder how could Nedia lived in a dark place like this.
She walked toward the exit and found Nedia was waiting for her at the open plain about 300m from the enterance to the cave, she walke towards the center of the plain where Nedia was waiting.
With her True Eyes skill was still active, she now could see clearly Nedia stats.

Aria stopped walking, her couldn’t move a muscle when she saw Nedia stats, she had read that a master class monster strength was depend on their territory, a boss monster class strength was usually about twice the strength of a normal monster in their territory, so a master class boss monster strength was also usually twice the strength of the boss monster class, if the average normal monsters in Etna forest were around level 550, the boss level should be also around level 740-750, so a master class boss monster in Etna forest was supposed to be around level 920-930, but it seemed Nedia was an exception.
“My lady, it seems that you must release your seal to defeat her, her power could be said rivalling to that of a god.”
Aria didn’t really sure that she could defeat Nedia even if she unseal the power of Goddess Aria, she never fought against monsters before and this one was not a normal monster, it was a dragon.
After she calmed down, she started walking towards Nedia.
“Are you ready?”Nedia asked with a bright smile on her face.
It seemed that she was really happy to fight against Aria.
“Can I ask you for your real reason why do you want to fight with me?”
Aria had been thinking about this since Nedia challenge her, no matter what she thought, there must be another reason why Nedia challenged her, she already had a guess why Nedia wanted to challenge her, but Aria wanted to hear the real reason from herself.
“You know, I have been living for about a millennia now, I have been fighting many people and races, including the dragon race, but nobody could defeat me, I have been searching for someone that could defeat me, I searched for a long time till I got tired of it, I then made a liar and settled down in this forest while waiting for someone that could defeat me, and now I have found that person. But don’t misunderstand this, I didn’t lie to you about the reason of challenging you, I just have my own reason why I want to fight you.”
Aria shook her head in disbelief, her guessed was right on the mark, she had guessed this when she heard that Nedia said that she felt her aura since the day she came to this forest, the only thing that she did on that day was making equipments using her Divine Aura skill, so Nedia must had sensed that aura, and when she saw Nedia abnormal levels and weakness, she was sure that no one could defeat her and Nedia was looking for someone with a divine power to had a fight.
“Are you ready now?” She looked impatient.
Well Aria didn’t have any choice but to fight.
“Unseal.”Aria said with a low tone.
Suddenly her silver hair changed to golden hair, and her body now surrounded by a golden aura,
Nedia who was seeing this smiled even brighter than before. She had been waiting for this moment for a long time, she actually had gave up looking for someone with a divine power a long time ago, but 8 months ago, she felt it, a divine power and even more it was on her territory, she never thought that her old wish for a battle with someone with divine power could be fulfill.
“Well then I will go first.”
Suddenly a punch appeared in front Aria face, but before the punch could touch Aria, Nedia was already fall to the ground even though Aria didn’t move an inch from her place.
“How did you do that? I only know that you controlled your divine aura to block my punch, but I didn’t know how did you throw me so easily like that.”
Enjoying this book? Seek out the original to ensure the author gets credit.
Nedia was surprised when she found herself on the ground, sbe had fought many races with their unique combat techniques, but she never saw this one before, she thought that she had seen every combat technique that was existing in this world. But it seemed she was wrong.
“....”
Well, what Aria did wasn’t really a combat technique from this Royal Road, she was using Jujitsu and Aikido to throw Nedia, using a small movement and a little strength as much as possible to deflect or nullified her opponent attack, and used that attack power and speed to amplified her own attack power, Aria used this technique and her Divine Aura manipulation to manipulate the punch power and speed to throw Nedia.
When she was in her second year in middle school there was a class of self-defense where martial arts instructor came to teach the girls how to protect themselves, using Jujitsu and Aikido the girls could fight with an opponent that was much more stronger or bigger than themselves, the girls learned about it for a year, and in that one year she managed to master both of it.
Nedia stood up and started to attack again, this time it was more powerful and faster than the first attack, but no matter how powerful and faster Nedia punch was, with True Eyes skill Aria could see clearly Nedia movement, Aria could predict where Nedia punch would hit her, and use her divine aura to nullified the punch and throw her, Nedia tried to punch Aria for a few more time, but the result was the same as before, she then stood up again, but this time she didn’t attack Aria, it seemed that she understood that attacking her with hand to hand combat was a useless thing.
This time Nedia summoned a dark green sword that emitting a dark aura, and slashed at Aria, but too bad it was the same as before, Aria didn’t move from her spot and Nedia was thrown away into the air.
Nedia was amazed by Aria technique, she never thought that even using a weapon the result would be the same, she laughed and looked very happy, it had been a very long time since she fought with an opponent that she couldn’t defeat so easily.
“Now then, let’s fight seriously from now on.”
Nedia eyes started to change into an eyes that only a predator could have, an eyes filled with bloodlust and fighting spirit, the dark green aura that was surrounding her body began to increased it’s intensity and moved violently. She took a stance, ready to attack anytime. Aria who saw her change, got more serious, she make her divine aura more stronger.
Nedia moved instantly to Aria left side, and slashed at Aria left upper body, this time Aria concentrated more divine aura at her left hand and deflect Nedia sword, she almost failed to deflect the sword because Nedia attack power and speed were on a completely different dimension than her previous attack, Aria couldn’t handle the impact and was backing away a few steps, Nedia who saw an opening started to slashed at her again, this time Aria used her right hand to deflect Nedia sword, but because she was still in an awkward position after backing away, she couldn’t deflect the sword properly and it hit her right hand directly, she was blown away by the impact, thanks to her divine aura that coated her entire body, she only lost half of her health, if she didn’t coat her entire body with divine aura, then she would have been died by now, Aria tried to stand up, but her body wouldn’t listen to her.
(Ugh... what an insane power and speed, my right hand is broken and my body won’t move, I guess I don’t have much choice now, lets try that.)
Aria infused her own body with a divine aura and began imagining her body structures. veins, flesh, blood, muscles, bones and every inch of her body, and she infused her entire body structure with her divine aura, then she manipulated and recreated her own body structures with the divine aura which was now inside her body.
“Ting!”
You infused and recreated your entire body with Divine Aura+ 300 All stats.

+ No Iron based wepon can hurt you.

After she got the skill, her body could move again and her right hand had returned to normal, she then stood up and looked at Nedia, she wondered why Nedia didn’t attack her,
Nedia just stayed there without moving, she looked at Aria and then said. “Now its your turn to attack.”
Aria know that she won’t be able to defeat Negia if she didn’t attack back, but Jujitsu and Aikido only had a few techniques to attack, most of the techniques were for self-defense without to much harming the opponent, even if her attack was a success, she didn’t think that she could do much damage to Nedia, their difference in level was too high.
The only way was to use divine magic, she now understood how to use divine magic after infusing her divine aura into her body, to use a divine magic first she must used a basic magic, but the problem was she never learned any kind of magic, when she was in Babel tower she only read normal books, and she never read any skill books or magic books,
(What should I do now?)
Wben she was thinking about what to do she saw Babel was flying around her. then remembered that Babel had a useful skill at a time like this.
She grabbed Babel which was flying near her and said “Babel Connection, connect to basic fire magic skill book.”
“As your wish my lady.”
The bright golden color which was usually on the cover now had turned into red.
Aria wasn’t planning to read the entire book, she only needed one basic magic as a catalyst to use divine magic, and with True Eyes ability to read 100 time faster than normal reading speed, she only needed to open the book for a second to learned one basic magic.

When Nedia saw the orange fireball, she transformed herself into a dark green dragon, it’s size was about 350m long, she then fly away into the sky, Aria threw the orange fireball at Nedis who was now flying in the sky, but Nedia easily avoided it by turning her body to the left, Aria then casted the maximum divine fireball she could make and threw them all at Nedia, 26 divine fireball were flying towards Nedia, this time she didn’t avoid it, she cast a large scale thunder magic at the divine fireball, chain of explosions like fireworks filled the sky.
When Nedia saw the explosions, she casted another large scale thunder magic, this time her target was Aria, with her True Eyes Aria could see that there were large amount of mana that gathered on top of her, and her True Eyes also identified it as a magic attack from Nedia, it seemed that Nedia didn’t know that magic couldn't do any damage to Aria, Aria would just absorb the magic, a large scale thunder were storming down at Aria, Nedia eyes were widen when she saw that Aria was standing inside thunderstorm with ease.
Their magic battle had last for an hour, Nedia had tried all of her magic but none of them could do any damage to Aria, and Aria had threw more than 10.000 divine fireball at Nedia , but Nedia evaded her magic or counter it with another magic
“As expected from a goddess, this is the first time that someone could fight this long against me. As a respect for you. I will show you my most powerful magic
Eternal Darkness."
Nedia fly higher to the sky, she was looking at Aria and began chanting, the sky became darker and darker and a dark green magic circle which size was as big as her dragon form appeared in front of her.
With her True Eyes Aria was able to see the detail explanation of that dark green magic circle.
Eternal Darknesss (Active) (True Master)The forgotten ultimate darkness magic that was created by the Origin of Darkness, This magic will summon a black hole that will suck anything and imprison them into an Eternal Darkness forever..
Mana cost : 300.000.
Cool down : 30 days.
Max range : Unknown..
Origin of Darkness Magic Tier : Ultimate.
Aria was speechless when she read the description of Eternal Darkness magic, even though she could absorb any magic attack, this one was a different case, this magic didn’t meant for attacking her health, but it was used for imprisoning her inside a black hole, it was also impossible for her to evade it, it’s renge was too wide even her True Eyes couldn’t measure it, and she didn’t have any barrier or protection magic to block it. the only way left was to counter it with another magic.
A magic that could counter darkness magic was a holy/divine or a fire based magic, fortunately she had learned divine fireball, but there was a problem, the divine fireball was too small to counter that kind of magic, the divine fireball maximum size was only 16m, even if she infused her mana and divine power into it, it would just make it unstable and explode, then she got a crazy idea.
She cast Divine Fireball and made it fly higher to the sky till it reached stratosphere, she infused her divine aura and mana as much as possible, when the divine fireball was about to explode, she began manipulating her divine aura to create a more big fireball, she imagined a big, bright fireball, yes, she wanted to create a sun, it was the only way she could think to counter Eternal Darkness.
She never actually saw the sun from up close so she didn’t know how it was really looked like, but she had read the description of it and it’s photo inside the encyclopedia, so she just had to use her imagination to made it.
Up in the stratosphere a mini-size of sun was created, it was about 500 meters in diameters and shining brightly.
“Ting!”
You have created new divine magic, Do you want to save it?
Yes/No
“Yes.”
Please name your new magic.
“Amaterasu.”
Amaterasu (Active) (True Master)Goddes Aria created this magic to counter Eternal Darkness magic that was created by the Origin of Darkness, You create a sun in the stratosphere to attack your enemies, this magic is the most powerful ultimate divine magic that can even burn the entire continent to nothing.
Mana cost : 100.000/100meters .
Cool down : 30 days.
Max range : Unknown.
Divine Magic Tier : Unknown.
Nedia was starting to get panic when she saw a mini-size of sun in the stratosphere, her instinct told her that she must finished her magic as quickly as possible if she didn’t want to die.
Aria didn’t wait for Nedia to finished her magic and threw Amaterasu at her, when Amaterasu about half way to hit her, Nedia finished her magic and shot a deep black sphere about 300m, her target wasn’t Aria, she had changed her target to a mini-size sun that was flying towards her.
Two ultimate class magic were colliding in the sky, an unimaginable explosion occurred, all the players who were login into Royal Road on that day could feel the entire continent were shaking and a very loud explosion could be heard wherever you were.
Aria was blown away by the shockwave, even though she had a Divine Body skill and protected her body with divine aura, the impact still took a quarter of her health, she stood up and looked around her, trees were blown away, large cracks were created on the ground, and no clouds could be seen in the sky, she couldn’t find Nedia, the last time she saw Nedia was when Nedia was trying to get away from the explosion.
Nedia was now lying down on the ground in her human form, she couldn’t get away from that explosion and because of that her health now was in a critical condition, it was a good thing that the explosion occurred in the sky, that amount of energy could destroy the entire Etna forest and it’s surrounding area to nothing, it was her first time seeing a magic collision of that magnitude, she was so happy that she could fight with someone whom she could fight with all of her might.
About an hour later Nedia had recovered 10% of her health, it was a slow recovery, it seemed that the effect of divine magic was slowing down her recovery, she stood up and walked to her lair, in the distance she could see Aria was sitting on top of fallen tree near the entrance to her lair.
Aria was looking at Nedia who was walking towards her and asked “Are you alright?”
“Not really, I need more time to recover because of the effect of your divine magic hasn’t weared off yet.”
Nedia walked to the grass area near the entrance to her lair at the opposite sidewhere Aria was sitting and then sat down.
“So, continue?”
Aria hadn’t get any notification of quest complete, so the quest hadn’t finished yet, that was why she asked Nedia if she wanted to continue fighting or not.
“No, it’s your win, as promised I will hand over my title to you, and also I will follow you from now on ”
“Ting!”

From exp and fame she got, Aria guessed that this quest was equal to a level SS quest, usually level SS quest was given to a player with level 900, and she completed it when she was still level 1, so no wonder that she leveled up 447 times, she only defeated Nedia and not killed her, so she only got the quest reward and ezp, if she killed Nedia maybe she would level up more.
What Aria didn’t expect was that Nedia became her servant. Dragon race was a proud race, they won’t bow to anyone even if that person was a god, moreover Nedia wasn’t a normal dragon, she was an ancient dragon.
Ancient dragon was a dragon that born in the ancient time, they were much more stronger than normal dragon, the stronger a dragon was the more pride they had,
“Why did you want to become my servant?”
”Of course to fight strong opponents.” Said Nrdia with a grin on her face.
Nedia thought that there must be a big reason why a goddess who was forbidden to came to Mortal World realm, right now appeared in the Mortal World realm, and she thought that if she became Aria servant, she could fight another strong opponent like Aria or maybe she could fight with another gods.

Upperworld Realm
In the white room somewhere in the Upperworld Realm, an old man with white long beard, a handsome young man, a little girl with long blond hair and a beautiful women with long black hair were sitting on the chairs which were surrounding a large round table at the center of the room.
“Did you feel it?”Asked the old man.
“Don’t be silly, that amount of divine power, there is no way that all of us don’t feel it.”Said the girl.
“But, how can she be in there?”Asked the young man.
“She is governing over knowledge and wisdom, she must have found a way to go there without losing her divine power.”Replied the old man.
“What should we do now?”Asked the girl.
“let’s locate her first, I will order my follower to search for her.”Said the young man.
“Even if they find her, we still cannot go there to catch her. Ah how about you send that mortal who made a contract with you to catch her?.”Asked the girl to the young man.
“Even if I lend him my power, it’s still impossible for him to even touch her.”Replied the young man.
“Any other idea?” Asked the girl to the beautiful woman.
“....”The women shook her head.
“What is Odin doing now?”Asked the girl to the old man..
“He is in the hidden dungeon, visiting Loki.”Replied the old man.
