Chapter 630: Thank you for taking me here
Translator: imperfectluck Editor: KurisuHos.h.i.+"s vision darkened for a moment… and then he saw something incredibly beautiful!
Red, white, yellow, blue… Large amounts of flowers bloomed in varying colors here, creating a beautiful flower garden . Numerous small silver b.u.t.terflies danced amongst the flowers, and abundant green leaves grew on vines that spread everywhere . These served to accentuate the flowers" beauty even further .
Clear water poured out of a long crack on a wall to Hos.h.i.+"s right . The water cascaded downwards, forming a small waterfall that then became a babbling stream which curved through this entire area .
A giant red-leafed tree stood in the center of this area . It was apparently the same type of tree as the one from before, except that this one was bigger and also bore some black fruits .
"So beautiful…" Hos.h.i.+ couldn"t help but praise the scenery . He then heard the sound of song again .
Following the sound, Hos.h.i.+ carefully walked past the flower garden so as to not trample on any flowers . When he approached the large red-leafed tree, he saw the gold-haired girl sitting on a tree branch as he expected . Just like before, she was singing that mysterious and ethereal song .
Hos.h.i.+ silently enjoyed the performance for a while .
No mist was appearing, nor were there any spiritual monsters… This appeared to be a safe zone .
Quite a long amount of time pa.s.sed without any spiritual monsters appearing at all . Hos.h.i.+ was now confident that this beautiful place was safe .
"Thank you for taking me here," Hos.h.i.+ thanked the girl who was sitting on the tree .
He then walked over to the bottom of the tree, sat down against the tree bark, and placed his s.h.i.+eld down next to him . Hos.h.i.+ finally relaxed himself and sighed deeply .
He had fought for so long by himself, running everywhere without daring to let down his guard… Now he could finally not worry and rest for a little while .
His originally tense state of mind eased itself . The acc.u.mulated fatigue of his body instantly overwhelmed him like an unstoppable tidal wave . The pleasant song echoed in his ears, making him feel drowsy .
He knew that he shouldn"t sleep, but…
Hos.h.i.+ gradually closed his eyes, no longer able to fight off the drowsiness overcoming him . He fell asleep right there under the red-leafed tree, with a peaceful expression on his beautiful face .
Seiji stopped paying attention to how much time had pa.s.sed after their search for Hos.h.i.+ pa.s.sed two hours .
His [Interdimensional Locator Spell] mark still indicated a clear direction . This meant that Hos.h.i.+ was still alive and healthy .
Even Seiji was feeling fatigued after traveling in the Domain for so long . However, his junior had managed to survive for so long despite this being his first visit to an Inner World, and even remained in good condition . This was… amazing!
Seiji didn"t expect that Hos.h.i.+ would be able to pull it off . He felt that he had underestimated his junior and Fourth Knight .
Any Awakened that managed to survive here would rapidly grow in power . Hisas.h.i.+ and Mika next to him were great examples .
After fighting here for so long and absorbing large amounts of mist, not only did their powers improve, they even learned new abilities .
*Bang!*
Hisas.h.i.+ kicked away an approaching black wolf with his right leg that had thunder entwined around it .
Hisas.h.i.+ was no longer restricted to only casting thunder spells with his hands . Even his legs and feet were now capable of producing thunder . This gave him powerful kicking strength, along with much greater agility for jumping, dodging, and close-quarters combat . The drawback to this was that if Hisas.h.i.+ used thunder on his legs and feet for too long, they would start to go numb or even hurt . He would then need to rest or receive healing from Seiji to help cure the symptoms .
Obviously, this ability"s best use was to improve Hisas.h.i.+"s mobility . However, he also really enjoyed the feeling of kicking small monsters far away with his feet, so he kept using it often in such a manner .
*Whip!*
Mika shot out a black band from her Mas.h.i.+ro"s Clothes . This black band accurately impaled the black wolf that had been kicked into midair by Hisas.h.i.+ . The black wolf was then transformed into mist that was absorbed by the black band .
Mika was now able to control her Mas.h.i.+ro"s clothes to shoot black bands in a radius of twenty meters . She could control at most six black bands simultaneously to attack enemy monsters . Her accuracy with this was far higher than using the spiritual gun to shoot Mana Bullets, and this also had a lower Mana cost as well . The drawback was that these black bands had limited attack power, and could even be broken by boss monsters, which would cause a large amount of damage to Mika .
Although this seemed rather subtle, Seiji felt that this new ability of Mika"s might become something like a powerful tentacle technique if it leveled up some more .
Mika and Hisas.h.i.+ were continuously getting stronger . However, their fatigue was also acc.u.mulating .
Luckily, there were three of them, so they all took turns fighting and resting .
Seiji didn"t know how much longer it would take for them to find Hos.h.i.+ .
After the Domain or Inner World transformed… not only were there more paths now, every district was much larger .
As the three traveled in the direction that Seiji"s [Interdimensional Locator Spell] indicated, they even pa.s.sed through a gigantic district that was larger than several football fields put together! There were so many monsters that appeared there which seemed like a tidal wave . It was impossible to count how many monsters were rus.h.i.+ng at them…
Seiji and his friends broke through this district at the fastest speed possible . They managed to leave the tremendous group of monsters behind them by escaping to another district .
"What type of boss monster would appear there if we stayed behind and cleared out all the small monsters in such a district?" Hisas.h.i.+ asked this question after they escaped .
Seiji felt that at minimum, something like a tyrannosaurus rex would appear . He didn"t know what the maximum limit would be . Perhaps a giant dragon or an amalgamation beast like a chimera would appear .
Seiji wanted to find Hos.h.i.+ as quickly as possible . Seiji was also really worried about s.h.i.+ka and Kazuko, but he also knew that he needed to remain calm .
If something irrecoverable truly happened, he would load… But before then, he would believe in his companions! Seiji thought that to himself .
They entered another corridor .
As they proceeded down this path and killed the small monsters along it, they suddenly heard faint sounds coming from down this direction!
Seiji"s first reaction was that of delight . However, he soon noticed that the sounds weren"t from Hos.h.i.+ as he first thought .
*Tat tat tat tat…* This sounded like continuous gunfire from an a.s.sault rifle . This was a sound that Hos.h.i.+ certainly wouldn"t be able to produce .
Out of the three that had gotten separated from Seiji, only s.h.i.+ka had a gun with her . But even if she brought out and used it, her gun wouldn"t sound like this one .
"Can you guys hear that?" Seiji looked towards Mika and Hisas.h.i.+ .
Both of them nodded .
"That"s not a sound that Hos.h.i.+, s.h.i.+ka, or Kazuko could possibly produce . I think that it"s highly likely that there"s others here . " Seiji had a serious expression .
"What should we do?" Hisas.h.i.+ blocked a black wolf that tried to jump him . He then swept it away with a kick from his lightning-wreathed foot .
Seiji pulled down the cover of his helmet so that his entire face was concealed . "Both of you stay behind here . I"ll go on ahead to check things out . "
"Be careful," Mika reminded him while impaling two black wolves with her bands .
"I will . "
Seiji then cast a concealment spell on himself that made his presence very difficult to sense . It was as if he had put on a camouflage cloak .
Seiji carefully trudged, or perhaps a better word would be stealthed, towards the direction of the sounds . He wanted to investigate the situation .
He saw five people!
All five were male . Only one among them was wearing spiritual combat equipment, while the other four wore ordinary clothing .
The one in spiritual combat equipment was obviously a Spiritual Ability user . He wore a helmet, held an a.s.sault-rifle-type spiritual gun, and there was also a short sword visibly buckled to his right leg .
The other four in ordinary clothing were all Awakened . Three of them were all holding different blood-red weapons!
There was a brown-haired jacketed man who carried a greatsword .
There was a green-haired youth who wore athletic attire and carried a spear .
There was a shadowy-appearing youth who wore a hoodie and wielded a dagger in each hand .
These three were currently fighting together against a large dragon boss monster . Two acted as warrior type fighters while the third acted as an a.s.sa.s.sin . Their teamwork appeared average in Seiji"s eyes .
The fourth Awakened who didn"t have any visible weapons was a gray-haired boy who wore a normal s.h.i.+rt . He was holding a tablet computer… no, something that resembled a tablet computer . Every few seconds, this item would emit a circular red wave .
The Spiritual Ability user stood next to this gray-haired boy . It appeared as if he was either protecting or surveilling this boy .
Seiji silently observed them .
Just as he was a.s.sessing the combat capabilities of the three Awakened that were fighting the dragon boss monster, the gray-haired boy suddenly looked in Seiji"s direction!
"Did he notice me?"
Seiji frowned at this . He knew that it wouldn"t help even if he retreated now, so he could only stay there unmoving and pretend that he was only a rock .
At this moment, the dragon monster suddenly roared and started charging . It abandoned the three Awakened it was fighting and charged straight at the gray-haired boy!
