The apostles’ summoning took place on the ground.
I flew high into the sky and easily pulled away from the summoned apostles.
[Warrior, what is this? Do we need to kill it? ]
[It’s the impact of the summoning. Leave it alone. ]
I immediately stopped Ahb.o.o.boo who was asking if I wanted to kill it and continued to watch the summoning process.
The summoning location was easy to find.
I just needed to find the center of the flowing power.
With that location as the center, heaven and earth began to quake.
It’s certainly a force that lines up with the message’s warning.
Ordinary challengers who didn’t listen to the message and wandered around the area would tire and lose their lives upon summoning.
This was how overwhelming the summoning process was.
A deep vibration sounded, s.p.a.ce began to shake, and the apostle appeared on the surface.
The scary thing was that even after the summoning, the power that surrounded it remained.
I thought this power was the impact of the magic used to summon apostles here.
But now, it seems like it was just the apostle’s energy pouring out.
This so-called ‘apostle’ was more than four meters high.
Although at first glance it looked like a human being, it was not very similar.
It’s more like Genie, the lamp genie from Aladdin.
Its face had none of a human’s 5 sensory organs and its body was translucent.
Looking at him was like looking at a ghost, making me feel that it shouldn’t even belong in this world.
The summoned being looked up at me.
Then it said.
[Come down.]
It even could speak.
Although without a mouth.
I didn’t say a word when I heard the command flowing directly into my mind.
Although this area was full of that violent energy, it was well controlled.
Anyways, it won’t attack me for no reason. From the message, it was also an ally.
I descended quickly, landed, and the apostle spoke again.
[h.e.l.lo.]
Unlike its appearance, it was a very human-like apostle.
And it even said h.e.l.lo to me.
“Well, Hey.”
[No honorifics? Do you know how much older I am than you? ]
It’s really a human-like apostle.
And also a stubborn old guy.
“Yes, h.e.l.lo, nice to meet you.”
[…]
The apostle was expressionless.
Even though it couldn’t make any expression.
Because it didn’t have the five sensory organs.
[You’re the one who set the fire… Ah, yes, you’re the promising challenger. You’re the one who annihilated the mutants and summoned me.]
The apostle said.
A word came out of the apostles that I thought it couldn’t say.
‘Challenger.’
I’m sure it’s a word used to refer to people that were summoned inside the Tutorial system.
[I thought that a challenger of the 40th floor would be exceptionally strong, but it seems now that you can’t bear your cultivation. You are indeed a special being. ]
The Apostle wasn’t talking to me, but mumbling to himself.
“Really?”
[Of course. These mutants are not made to be easily killed by a 40th floor challenger. While they wandered, you should’ve moved stealthily and confirmed their origin. I would’ve been summoned while you were getting chased in the forest. That was the intended process.]
Now I’m absolutely sure, it was talking to me.
“Mr. Apostle, do you know about the Tutorial?”
[Of course. I know a little about Tutorial, the challengers, and you. ]
Its reply was beyond my expectation.
Inside a stage, I would’ve never think to meet someone that had a clear understanding of the Tutorial.
[As an apostle, I am here to be an a.s.sistant for the challenger. You can regard me as a guide. I can steer you in the right direction and also provide a variety of guidance for the future.]
This was all abrupt.
It was so unexpected that my mind couldn’t keep up with what the apostle said.
To help and guide the challenger? Here?
Why is it here?
If only it had appeared on the first floor.
Maybe it’s because it saw my emotional expression, the apostle added.
[Is it strange? Isn’t it a tutorial? Since this place is a springboard for adaption and strength. Of course you need such a guidance. ]
After listening to the apostle, the phrase “what the f.u.c.k” came to my throat.
I can see that apostle and I had a different understanding of the Tutorial.
The apostle thought Tutorial was literally a tutorial.
A tutorial is created to let players familiarize themselves before the game officially started..
[Let me introduce myself. I am the apostle of the G.o.d of Nature, Spirit King Alan Hal. Just call me Allen Hal.]
“Allen Hal.”
[Add ‘Mr’ to it. ]
“…….”
[Challenger, what’s your name? ]
“Please call me Hao.”
I almost couldn’t resist adding ‘zzaai’ after the name.
[Honorifics without sincerity plus a pseudonym without sincerity. ]
[Anyway, it’s very well done pseudonym. There are no problem so far. You should always use the pseudonym in the future. ]
None of your business.
Why is he suddenly asking me to use a pseudonym.
“May I ask why?”
[The name confirms the existence of the name’s owner.. As you grow stronger, revealing your real name will yield no benefits.]
I understand, I replied.
To tell the truth, I didn’t understand, but I pretended that I did.
I need to ask Kiri Kiri for the details.
[Wandering everywhere while exposing one’s real name is equivalent to exposing one’s life. If there is such a person, then he is either the arrogant madman or an overwhelming strong individual who can keep his life against the world. ]
This time I also answered, “Ah, yes, I understand.”
Even if I didn’t ask, the apostle explained it one by one.
He reminds me of the Knight from before.
What a human-like apostle.
The Spirit King is evocative of calm, emotionless being.
I spoke my thoughts and the Spirit King answered that it was because he had met so many contractors before.
[I also have questions to ask you. ]
“What is it?”
I hadn’t asked enough yet, but it seems he has questions for me.
[Why didn’t you nurture your spirit?]
[There is a fragrance of a spirit within you. Although very weak. You have obtained a spirit’s protection and enough familiarity with the spirit. There’s even a spirit walking alongside you. ]
He must be talking about the Wind Spirit and its protection.
It’s true that I didn’t care about it or use it after the beginning.
I had no plans to develop it.
[You have the ability to become a spirit messenger. Your strength and familiarity is enough for the spirit to grow. Perhaps you can reach me through that spirit. It will certainly be of great help to your journey. I wish to know why you ignore that spirit.]
As if he was afraid of anyone saying that he was not the Spirit King, it mentioned something about the spirits.
The reason was simple.
Through the use of the Wind Spirit’s Protection, new skills emerged one by one.
