Chapter 35: Lost Kingdom


    School continued as usual.


    Alex confirmed a few stuff about forest fairies with his friend, Tomo Homie. Tom also passed him some unnecessary information along with important stuff, but Alex was d nheless.


    He already found out that forest fairies were open to yers. Most demi-humans weren’t that friendly toward yers yet. They had their own ns and rules prepared for yers, and forest fairies weren’t excluded from that list.


    The Forest Fairies Queen was known as level hundred existence. She had a strong guard, around fifteen levels below her. And then, she had the whole n of forest fairies with their levels around fifty.


    Of course, Alex was well aware of unique NPCs simr to Deathwill Sisters. He believed that each n and kingdom had selected some people to reset their level and helped them level up.


    ‘No… Not everyone can get this chance. They should find as many people who can reset their level, then raise them,’ Alex corrected his train of thoughts, ‘But if the forest fairies queen got such a chance, would she take it?’


    Although Alex didn’t know her personally, he believed she wouldn’t take this chance. For NPCs, it was way harder to level up. It was an arduous path. Losing one hundred-level existence would expose the forest fairies to their neighbors.


    “There are two demi-humans kingdoms in our continent, Alex,” Tomo Homie continued his heated talk.


    One demi-human kingdom consisted of bug type of race. Bees, ants, butterflies, and so on… All those demi-humans were under the Green Kingdom.


    And then, the second type was about beasts. Wolf Races, fox races, and so on. They were known as the Beast Kingdom.


    Those kingdoms consisted of many ns.


    But although they were under one kingdom, the main purpose of their kingdoms’ existence was to protect theirnds from humans and other vile existences. Other than it, all demi-humans had their own freedom. If they wanted to mate and be closer to humans, feel free.


    However, the strongest existences, such as the kings and the queens, never allowed themselves to form a close rtionship with humans and other races. And then, the strongest tribes had just business rtionships. That was for obvious reasons.


    Still, the ns wouldn’t mind fighting against each other and seizing the territories. In fact, they had rather friendly tournaments where they fought for somend.


    ‘If the forest fairy queen became low level, others would seize somends… And although they formed a kingdom mainly against humans, Elias Deathwill still managed to get on their good side…


    This man… How far did his hands reach?’ Alex shook his head.


    Even though it was the game’s beginnings, yers had made significant progress with NPCs. They had a lot of intel, which was shared through the forums. But even in those forums, Alex never heard about the duhans, the winged race, or even the cat race!


    His Deathwill Castle was in a different zone, so perhaps, the same went for the Deathwill Sister’s mother’s families? Even though Alex and other yers couldn’t use teleports yet, high-level NPCs indeed had their ways to go between continents.


    “There’s a lot ofnds to go through,” Alex chuckled, “But is there and that no one has ess to?”


    “Yep,” Tomo Homie nodded, “I bought all maps avable. It was a hassle to trade with yers, but it was worth it! That’s how I found insurmountable mountains with thick clouds teeming around them. There’s also and of the lost kingdom.”


    As Tomo Homie mentioned the lost kingdom, Alex’s heart skipped a beat.


    “Tell me more about it,” Alex said while barely keeping his feelings in check.

    [Wee to the Avander World.]


    The usual rainbow light blinded Alex.


    He then opened his eyes again.


    [Alexander Deathwill Lv. 22 HP: 1850/1850 MP: 820/820]


    [Your equipment’s durability has reached a dangerously low percentage.]


    Because of his desire to speak with Olivia, Alex had logged out a few meters away from the forest. He had many battles here, which slowly debilitated his equipment. However, Strongus inflicted the most damage.


    That punch that made Alex unconscious still lingered on Alex’s mind. As he felt it, his equipment was the same. But as items couldn’t speak, at least yet, Alex could understand their feelings by looking at their status.


    Their durability was so low that they cried.


    ‘If it weren’t for an epic grade, this equipment would be useless for me. I still can go with it, but it would be good to invest some money into the sword,’ Alex pondered inwardly while slowly walking away from the mushroom forest.


    On his way, he saw yers going to this peculiar leveling ground. Their parties full of tanks, healers, and long-range sses filled Alex’s heart with jealousy.


    But as their numbers and friendship swathed Alex enviously, items within Alex’s inventory surely would nt the same feelings within those yers.


    “Look, cat.”


    “A catman.”


    “It’s a catman.”


    “You think he is a unique NPC?”


    A few yers gathered around Alex, but he dismissed them by lifting his hand. It was funny of them to think of him as the NPC. But it was not the first time. During his date with Olivia, many NPCs deemed Alex one of them.


    Of course, he looked like a catman, so those humans just thought he was NPC. If it weren’t for Olivia and how she spoke to Alex, yers would also think of him as the NPC.


    And Marvel would’ve been the same.


    ‘There’s a high chance that the forest fairies might think of me as the NPC. I should use this skill to my advantage. But before that,’ Alex grinned, clicking on one item in his inventory.


    The treasure that would make all mages around him jealous; Strongus’ Poison Veins(A), Strongus Acid Arrows(B).


    Those were highly advanced skills!


    ‘If I find a good sword andck some money, I will sell these,’ Alex decided.


    If luck was on his side, meaning he wouldn’t need to sell the skills, he would keep them in his inventory for future use. Perhaps, some of his friends would turn into a poison mage or get a ss rted to poison.


    In fact, thetter would be much better. After all, he fought Strongus together with Olivia. If it weren’t for her, Alex would’ve died too. That was why he preferred to split the gold or find the use for these skills with her.


    But as Olivia was still banned and Alex couldn’t know what awaited him, he decided to keep going.


    ‘I will ask Sara to share some spear techniques with my girl,’ Alex thought, and then, he went, ‘Ah’.


    Sara held her spear with one hand, and it was precisely the style that Olivia wanted to try out!


    “Oh well,” Alex grinned and increased his pace.


    As he said before, he would go straight to the forest fairies. However, it wasn’t unusual for people to make stops on their journey. Alex would check the auction house in one of those stops and find a sword suitable for his new level.


    His journey stopped in one of the prominent provinces where the renowned auction house stood.


    yers and NPCs frequently made their deals here.
