Chapter 701

[Yena is hilarious, haha]

Yena finally hit level 121 and cheerfully entered Teshiniria.

Teshiniria is one of the newly released multi-dimensional dungeons, and as you can tell from Lily’s experience, you have to choose a sect to enter.

From there, you get appointed as an upper-ranked disciple and have some additional tasks to complete.

But the ‘Extreme Scythe Faction’ that Yena chose is treating her like a total slave, haha!

Of course, Yena is pretty patient, so she managed to cope with it up to that point, but the problem was that as soon as she became an upper-ranked disciple, they wanted her to be offered as a sacrifice, lol!

Something about being a sacrifice for her master or whatever.

(Picture of Yena making a dumbfounded expression in front of the altar)

In the end, she got so angry that she killed all the devotees and wiped out the Extreme Scythe Faction, haha!

It’s clear that Yena is strong; she’s smashing things like she used to when destroying kingdoms, haha!

─ Hahahahahaha

─ Hey Yena

└ Of course, it’s Yena. Her performance is solid.

└ Current ranking: 2nd (probably). Does Yena look like a child now, haha?

─ Playing with Lily has made her just like that, haha! Lily even tried to kill the dragon her sect serves!

└ Many rankers are personality wrecks, haha!

└ For real, lol

└? Yena has always been like that. Isn’t Lily the one getting influenced by Yena?

└ True, Yena has always had that kind of personality.

─ But can she really do that? Is that not going to cause problems?

└ What kind of problems?

└ If we’re talking about problems, let’s start with Lily…

└ From the moment Lily caused chaos, things in Teshiniria got messed up.

─ It seems like a few other rankers entered, too.

└ For real?

└ Yep, I heard there are some rankers who hit level 121.

└ Oh, I wonder who went in.

“…Who entered?”

“A ton of people. If I’m late, I might not get a single one.”

Swoosh!!

Somewhere in the East of Teshiniria.

While dealing with the remnants of ‘Darkness,’ Yena, holding a small gem, said that.

She intended to head straight to Teshiniria after the Altar of the Impossible, but there were many things to take care of both internally and externally, so she decided to take a short break.

Three days later, as she headed to Teshiniria, she heard unexpected news from Yena.

“To the north, there’s Lord Leo and Knight. To the south, the Grim Reaper from that Banded. I heard a few others went the other way, too.”

“Are there really that many people who hit level 121?”

Even though the environment to level up had improved, leveling itself was still tough.

The environment might have increased, but that doesn’t mean the required experience points have decreased or that there are experience events happening.

Yena shook her head.

“Oh, of course, not everyone hit it… Leo, Knight, and Grim Reaper are definitely at level 121, but I’m not sure about the others. They probably didn’t hit it, right?”
“Well, 121 is right, but I don’t really know about the rest. There’s a high chance it’s not, though, meow?”

“? Of course?”

“Maybe it was something like an event that brought you here? Like a crack in space or something.”

“…Hmm. If that’s the case.”

It’s pretty common for people to enter through a crack in space.

After all, I came to Teshiniria because Sangyeom from the Extreme Scythe Faction threw his scythe over the crack.

Piarro from Blodia didn’t come over by hitting 121 either.

And if they didn’t enter through the normal route, there might be restrictions on quests or difficulty.

“People who came over through the crack in space will have a hard time with quests, huh.”

“That’s right, meow. No, it really is right. It’s tough unless you’re at 121, to begin with. They wouldn’t have any Holy Seals either.”

Yena nodded, purring.

In her hand, there was a gem resembling a black amethyst that had caught my attention earlier; I recognized it well.

It was a gem like the ‘Old Star Fragment’ obtained by clearing quests related to ‘Earth.’

Not something you could get just by clearing simple episodes; you had to meet special conditions to acquire it, making it a very precious item.

On top of that, the ‘Darkness’ that Yena cleared was one of the four strongest dragons.

It must have been harder than Earth, for sure.

“You got that, huh?”

“Oh, don’t even get me started. I thought they were absolutely crazy, you know? They made me do everything they said and acted like cultists. They even put me on some altar and yelled, ‘Split your belly open!’ I was so aggrieved, it’s unbelievable.”

“Really?”

“Meow! Yes! It was so absurd, and I tried to understand, you know? I thought, ‘Sure, I can die once,’ and after I resurrected, suddenly they wanted me to die ten times? I’m the Outsider, so I won’t die, but they asked me to die ten times! Do you know how much experience points drop when you die ten times? It’s almost like dropping from level one to two, it drove me insane…”

“Calm down, Yena…”

“It’s not over yet, meow!”

Yena cut me off and began to rant.

She looked even more aggrieved than when she told her story from the Tower of Growth, clearly fired up.

In the end, when she tried to reason that she had already died for them, the zealots of darkness wouldn’t listen, and that was when the quest popped up.

‘Wipe out all the zealots of darkness.’

Yena accepted that proposal without hesitation, and all the zealots were torn apart by her flurry of daggers.

“…So, I pushed my Myeosin skills to the limit and wiped them all out, meow. Midway, a weird dark worm thing made from about ten zealots combined came out and shot hundreds of dark beams, but I parried all of them and beheaded it, meow. The look on the remaining zealots’ faces? I can’t even tell you how satisfying that was…”

“Was that when you received the Star Fragment?”
“Did you receive a fragment?”

“That’s right, meow. No. Why is this happening again? It’s… uh.”

“Is that so?”

“…Anyway! So I’m collecting rewards and dealing with the leftover scum. After checking, it turns out these fanatics, besides me, have done many bad things.”

“Bad things, you say?”

The fragments are all pieces of the Dragon Heart, and there were many followers devoted to it.

Even the episodes I experienced involved them trying to use their master, the ‘Earth,’ as a war weapon, while the sage devoted to ‘Life’ was desperately trying to resurrect their master.

According to the information I’ve heard, the followers of the God of Darkness seem to be loyally following their master, so they must have been up to something fitting of that.

Yena frowned, genuinely looking displeased.

“There aren’t many civilians on the darkness side. Aside from the upper disciples of the Extreme Scythe Faction, there are only a few members of the sect. They say it’s due to the characteristics of the area worshiping darkness, but in reality, it’s just a facade for human sacrifice.”

“Human sacrifice…”

“Yes. They continuously throw humans who wouldn’t seem out of place disappearing regularly into someone’s meal. I think I might have had those intentions too, but no way.”

Hmph! Yena seemed still angry as she turned her head.

Whatever it may be, Yena dealt with the darkness side, and all the members of the Extreme Scythe Faction, which could be considered the root of this issue, were dead, so there was nothing else to deal with.

To obtain rewards like fragments or experience points, I’d have to progress on another front.

Other rankers would also be trying to get fragments, so I needed to start moving soon.

“It’s a bit dicey to mess with Life right now… If Lord Leo went north, then it must be Lightning. Since it matches well with Lord Leo’s abilities, it’s better to leave it alone.”

“Meow, meow… That speech pattern is really something.”

Leo has various attributes, but after taking Zeus out from the Tower of Growth recently, his lightning abilities must have skyrocketed.

If it’s a fragment of the Thunder Dragon, Leo should be able to handle it easily.

The seven fragments are Light (Source), Darkness, Lightning, Earth, Space, Wind, and Life.

Excluding the unknowns Light and Space, if we discard the others that are clear or in the process of clearing, Darkness, Earth, and Lightning, only one remains.

‘Wind.’

That’s the reason I came to Teshiniria, the master of the sects in the Southern Continent where the Extreme Scythe Faction belongs.

And to the south…

“I have to go south.”

“The Grim Reaper is down there.”

Where the king of the Banded, the Grim Reaper, is.

“Fortunately, I have ties with the Grim Reaper.”

Not particularly pleasant memories, though.

Kagakakak…!

“Ugh… You crazy bastard…!”

“Who told you to run around recklessly?”

Somewhere in the southern corner of Teshiniria.
Somewhere in the southern corner of Siniria.

Urgent Disciple Sangyeom of the Extreme Scythe Faction was glaring at the newly arrived Upper-ranked Disciple’s scythe, feeling ugly as he was on the verge of losing his head.

The scythe emitted a chilling green light, as if it would sever his neck at any moment.

It was an Exclusive Weapon granted only to the Upper-ranked Disciple of the Sect.

“Damn it! If I hadn’t lost my scythe…!”

Sangyeom naturally had his own weapon.

However, he had recently lost his Exclusive Weapon to a surprisingly powerful person named Lily.

It wasn’t just any regular weapon, so he couldn’t get it reissued.

Maybe if Sangyeom achieved some great merit or made progress in his techniques, it would be a different story, but he hadn’t.

In fact, due to a series of unfortunate events, he was now a target of disdain.

In the end, all he could do was shamefully roll on the ground as a sparring partner.

“Of all opponents, it had to be that Outsider woman!”

The new Upper-ranked Disciple, the Grim Reaper, chuckled as he tightened his grip on his Exclusive Weapon.

“You were so cocky from the beginning of this ridiculous Quest, and yet, an Urgent Disciple is nothing special? Or have I just become too strong?”

“…Don’t flatter yourself. Just because you got a weapon imbued with a great power—”

Squeak.

The Grim Reaper’s scythe slowly pressed into Sangyeom’s neck.

It wouldn’t kill him immediately, but blood was already oozing out.

“Why are you acting out? Want to die?”

“…It’s a sparring match. Killing isn’t allowed within the Sect.”

“Just quit the Sect. You’ve become an Upper-ranked Disciple, what more is there to see?”

“…Do you think the Elders would let that slide? You’re not someone who can challenge me just because you acquired a weapon.”

“Yeah, back in the day, that used to matter. Speaking of which, you lost your weapon to Lily too, right? We’re in the same predicament.”

“…To equate me with the Elders is a grave misunderstanding.”

“You’re the one who’s deluding yourself.”

Swoosh.

The Grim Reaper’s body bent slowly as he locked eyes with Sangyeom.

His dark blue eyes burned like blue flames.

“The only reason I’ve been nice to you is not because I’m weak.”

“…What?”

Crack!

“It would just get complicated if I didn’t follow the procedures. I have my subordinates to think about.”

Thud.

Sangyeom’s head rolled on the floor.

To the residents of the same world, it might have seemed quite brutal, but to the user, the Grim Reaper, it was nothing but a swirl of blue particles.

“Oh. The experience points are ridiculously low.”

Very faintly.
