Zongman: Sharingan just opened, you said it was the fault of the earth

Page 32

Through the night, it seems as if one has seen through the little light hidden beneath the dust of the world.

"Finally appeared..."

"You finally showed up..."

Her voice was soft, almost like a dream.

Behind her, the red-haired boy Ryan was half-kneeling on the ground, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.

As a member of Freya's family, he rarely saw this high and mighty goddess with such an expression.

Excitement, desire, joy...

It was not the desire for a certain object, but the burning passion like a cheetah discovering rare prey.

"Ryan."

"Yes Yes!"

Ryan's voice trembled uncontrollably, and beads of sweat the size of beans slid down his forehead like they were free.

"You said his name is... Bai Yulin, right?"

Freya slowly turned around and approached with a smile.

She leaned over, gently lifted Ryan's chin with one slender finger, parted her red lips, and spoke in a voice as soft as a lover's whisper:

"Ryan, could you please... do me a small favor?"

……

The next morning.

The sunlight poured in from the window, painting the entire room with a soft golden hue.

Bai Yulin sat up from the bed. The comfortable feeling of waking up naturally had not yet dissipated. He yawned and stretched.

He casually grabbed his clothes and put them on, his eyes casually glanced at the table -

All I saw was the empty scabbard lying there quietly.

"..."

Another wave of pain came over me.

That was the Kusanagi sword that he had spent 15,000 faris to buy, but it broke on the spot just a few seconds after it was unsheathed, becoming a completely "short-lived sword".

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Bai Yulin walked to the window and opened it to get some fresh air.

According to what Loki said last night, he didn't need to explore the dungeon today.

Bai Yulin will have to find Loki later to get the handwritten letter, and then go to "Hephaestus Familia" to meet Hephaestus, the god who is in charge of the largest forging guild in Orario.

"The richest goddess in Orario, the god of forging..."

"I'm quite looking forward to it. What's going on?"

Pushing open the door, Bai Yulin walked down the stairs. When he looked up, his attention was attracted by a figure not far away.

The long golden hair swayed slightly in the morning light, and the slender yet powerful figure was wielding the wooden sword in his hand meticulously.

——It’s Ais.

It is said that she has persisted in this kind of practice for seven or eight years, rain or shine, without interruption.

It's just that today... it seems to have come a little earlier than usual.

As if sensing Bai Yulin's gaze, Ai Si stopped and turned her head slightly.

Then he put the wooden sword on his waist and walked towards this side.

After stopping, Ais took out a letter from her shoulder bag, which was pinned with a feather. It was also printed with the unique identifier of the Loki family and handed it to Bai Yulin:

"Loki... asked me to pass it on."

"She...didn't get up today."

Bai Yulin knew that this was the "letter of recommendation" that Loki mentioned last night. After taking the letter, he thanked him.

Just as I was about to leave, Aisi didn't move.

Her eyes wandered slightly, as if she was hesitating, as if she was organizing her words.

After a moment, Ais whispered:

"come back earlier."

Bai Yulin was stunned. He knew that the puppet princess "Sword Princess" in front of him, who was not good at speaking, was actually expressing her expectations in her clumsy way.

“Aa ...

A girl's scream, so sharp that it seemed to pierce the air, came from behind.

Bai Yulin subconsciously covered his ears.

Apart from Loki who was still sleeping, she was the only one in the entire clan who could burst into such an excited voice at this early morning.

Sure enough, I looked back.

At the entrance to the main hall, the elf girl Lefiya's face flushed red, as if she had just witnessed some incredible Shura scene:

"Miss Aisi...Miss Aisi actually...told Yu Lin to come back early!?"

"Wow, is this the legendary gentle farewell in the morning!?"

"But why wasn't I the one saying goodbye?!!"

Bai Yulin: "..."

Ai Si: “?”

Is it really necessary to be so obvious about your lesbian nature?!

Ignoring Lefiya who had gone mad, Bai Yulin stuffed the letter into his arms and nodded slightly to Ais.

Having completed her mission, Ai Si turned around again, returned to the center of the courtyard, and continued her sword-swinging practice.

Looking at the elf girl walking towards him angrily, Bai Yulin didn't even bother to eat breakfast. He put on the oil and walked out of the Dusk Pavilion.

And just as he stepped out of the Twilight Mansion, a mechanical voice rang out beside his ears:

[Ding! The wheel of fortune begins to spin——]

[Main Mission: Second Phase Activation]

The big one is coming!

……

P.S. Thanks to big brother [13713] for the reward! I bow and thank you!

p.s. The new book is launched, and I would like to ask the big brothers to give some data, flowers, evaluation tickets and comments. Thank you again!

Chapter 42: The main mission appears!

[Ding! The wheel of fortune begins to spin——]

[Main Mission: Second Phase Activation]

[Mission Name: Chess Piece of Destiny]

[Mission Description: Your destiny lines begin to collide, and you must make a choice: hide or face the challenge head-on.]

Completion Conditions: Respond to contact from the Freya Familia and successfully resolve or confront a Familia "Conflict."

[Mission Reward: Unknown]

The mechanical sound in my ears appeared quickly and disappeared quickly.

But Bai Yulin was puzzled when he heard this:

"Contact with Freya's Familia... Yeah, I understand."

"Isn't Ryan a member of their clan?"

He touched his chin, thinking:

"Maybe he'll come back to me again and continue doing some 'assigned tasks'... That should be considered contact, right?"

"But what about the second half of the sentence... 'clan conflict'?"

In Bai Yulin's understanding, there are only two possibilities for "family conflict":

First, there is low-intensity friction, such as overlapping escort missions, conflicts over resources, and cooperation between chambers of commerce to grab orders.

The second one...that's "War Game".

"But I just joined Loki's family. I haven't even met everyone yet, and I'm already involved in a factional conflict?"

"Isn't this plot... jumping too fast?"

Although he complained, he actually knew it clearly in his heart.

Since the system has determined that this step is the main task, this so-called "conflict" cannot be just a simple quarrel.

"Be careful..."

"But...when did Freya, that crazy woman who can see 'souls', set her sights on me?"

Is it the soul?

He didn't think there was anything dazzling about himself as a time traveler.

"Who cares..."

"When the enemy comes, we will fight him; when the water comes, we will block it with earth."

Putting these messy thoughts behind him, Bai Yulin walked quickly towards his destination.

Soon, he arrived at the location of Hephaestus's family.

As one of the most powerful forging factions in Orario, the Hephaestus clan represents the "top armed forces" not only in the Labyrinth City, but also in the entire world of the Underworld.

This entire area of Northeast Street is almost entirely the territory of the Hephaestus faction.

Here, there are blacksmith shops, material suppliers, alchemy facilities and storage points stationed by the union.

Their headquarters is located in the core forging area.

While crossing the main street of the industrial area, Bai Yulin casually asked a dwarf blacksmith who was carrying materials, and then walked towards the red house at the east end.

As soon as I got closer, the mechanical voice in my ear rang again:

[Ding——Main story branch mission triggered! ]

[Mastered the forging skill (0/1), unfinished, the reward is unknown. ]

[Craft a weapon by yourself (0/1), unfinished, reward unknown. ]

Bai Yulin paused, keenly aware of the problem:

"Wait... this isn't a normal side quest?"

The task that popped up this time was clearly described as - [Main Line Branch Task].

"So, it's closely related to the main plot?"

Bai Yulin quickly sorted out the logical chain in his mind——

The main quest is to [respond to contact from Freya's family], but the key lies in "conflict".

This branch of the main line, which seems to be forcing Bai Yulin to learn "forging skills", is clearly a preparation for "increasing combat power".

in other words--
