Chapter 76: Is It Over?
-----3rd Person POV-----
.
Deep inside the Arkham forest, two figures appeared out of nowhere inside a translucent magic circle that suddenly emerged from the void. The figures were Li Gang and the woman that he called Cece.
After confirming that they arrived at the right ce, they started walking to the deeper part of the forest leisurely.
Along the way, the mysterious woman uncovered her cloak and showed her appearance. a beautiful orange-haired enchanting mature woman with a voluptuous body could be seen after she removed her cloak. With the mysterious tattoo around her right eye that showcased her characteristic, who else could it be if it''s not Madam Catherine Alex met before when he''s buying a ve from her store.
After removing her cloak, Catherine leisurely waved her slender hand to the front, looked like a gesture of taking something out of nowhere. After waving her right hand, an elegant smoking pipe suddenly appeared out of nowhere as it''s being held in her finger.
With a smoking pipe in her hand, Catherine leisurely started smoking as she asking the "young man" wearing white Daoist attire that following behind her
Catherine : Li Gang, You still naive as ever, you are already 150+ years old but still believing that kind of bullshit stranger spouting at you... sigh~ I wonder what the hell is in your father, "Heavenly Immortal" Li Tian''s head by sending you to this meeting...e to think of it, how could you have some rtionship with the Grenfilts Duke house?
Li Gang : Cece! as a man, you must follow your principle or you will lose the way of the Dao!! justice and equality is the way of my Dao! more importantly! how could I not enraged after hearing evil noble governing the town cece reside in!! but still, that Kristoph! he dare to lie to me! I will take this debtter! hpmh!!
Catherine : You didn''t answer my question yet, how could you have rtionship with the Duke Grenfilts House?
Li Gang : Hmm? ah.. that''s just a coincidence. When I sightseeing in this kingdom capital I met with the bullied Piter, the son of the Duke by chance, and decide to help him. That Piter seems to look like a decent person even though he slightly looks like an idiot. Anyway, the Duke seems interested in me after knowing I am a person from the Eastern Continent when Piter asked me to visit his house. He asked me if I could teach his eldest son some technique to strengthen his weapon skill.
.
Since I don''t want to be pestered by him I just gave some low-level Qi cultivation techniques that weremonly used by normal people in the Eastern Continent. It seems f you could cultivate it right, this Qi cultivation can be a skill in this Western Continent, so it''s quite popr as basic cultivation there, nevertheless, since I get this Qi cultivation book from a viger I saved in the past, so I think it''ll be better to give it to someone who needs it.
Catherine : With which eyes that you could see that bastard Phnderer as a decent person? sigh... if I didn''t get a message from your Father, I didn''t know what a further mess that you will create here. More importantly, stop meddling with the mortal matter in this continent from now on! and about kristop or something altogether with the Duke House, you have to cut your rtionship with them!
Li Gang : B-but!! cece! that Kristoph dares to trick me!! I have to take this debt from him!
Catherine : Just stop it, Okay~ and that kristop, his life maybe will notst long, with the personality of that Duke, I wonder he will spare him. anyway, stop meddling with the Mortal in this continent. Don''t forget, there is ''Temr'' that watching us here!
Hearing the word "Temr", Li Gang''s face became pale white as he flinched.
Li Gang : I-I don''t want to have anything with those creepy dolls!!! A-anyway, did cece stop my fight before because of this?
Catherine : Sigh~ you... did your father already tell you what kind of meeting that will be held in the Ancient Dragonir is about?
Li Gang : D-don''t tell me... that young man?!
Chaterine : Yes... it seems the time hase, 1 million years ago Great War...
Li Gang : No wonder he got so many skills! sigh... and if what cece talking about is true, it can''t be helped if hecks a lot ofbat experience.
Catherine : Not only that, his personality is kinda chaotic too, sigh, but I can somehow understand it, since "That" Guy seal 2 immortal creature in him if ordinary "being" have something like that inside their soul, I guessed they will already be crazy! anyway, his womanizing behavior is exactly the same as my mother Lilith describe "that" person, as expected the son of.... flinched* Who is it?!!
All of a sudden, a small loli around the age of 5 years oldnded on the ground from the top of giant trees. The little loli had a cute face and big watery eyes with cute red pupils. as for her hair, it''s blood red and tied in a lovely ponytail. With a ck gothic lolita dress in her body, the appearance she had really emphasized cuteness as well as slightly gloominess in it
??? : Catherine Lilith Vandia! why the hell did you help those peoples to defend their town and ughter my army! I will tell this thing to my mom!!
Catherine : So it''s you Barbara. Sigh~ are you sure you want to tell your mom about this? if your mom knew that you''re meddling and being "fooled" by some a mere mortal, maybe I have to see you again 100 yearster, ahh~ it will be lonely if I couldn''t see my cute Barbara for a long time~ huhu~.
Little Loli Barbara flinched after hearing Catherine mention that she will meet "100 years" again. She knew it really well, if her mother, Ancient Dragon Zarathos noticed that she was ying around with the monster horde inside Arkham forest, moreover, made them attacking a mortal town without proper reason, just because she got "fooled" by a mortal scheme, her mother would sure locked and isted her in solitude again in the main nest for 100 years!
Looking at Barbara pitiful frightened appearance, Catherine sighed and decided to stop teasing her
Catherine : Barbara, stop ying around with those monsters. that army of yours will be obliterated after 2 days anyway. So stop doing a yful thing with the monster to fill that boredom of yours. and more importantly, tell your mother, The sign of the Great War has alreadye into sight and will begin soon. Sigh... even though soon for the people like us is a long time for a mortal, but we have to prepare for it now...
Barbara : Ughgmmm... don''t tell my mother about this okay? I''ll promise I''ll be obedient! but, why did you say my army will be obliterated within 2 days?? Y and Yali are strong you know!! they are even stronger when they are fighting together!!!
Li Gang : Hey, this brat is still nasty as ever! why you still naming the food that you will eat?! ck ck ck
Barbara : Thisme Daoist!! who did you call nasty?!! do you wanna have one round with me?!!
Catherine : sigh.... stop ying around, you guys already old enough to be called an elder by a mortal but still acting like a kid~
sigh~
The three people started to continue their bantering as they''re headed deeper inside the forest. As what Great War they are talking about? it could only be found out when these people started the meeting

Meanwhile, in the still chaotic battlefield. Alex who had just back to the battlefield was being surrounded by his woman that worried about his well-being.
Chali : Master!! are you okay?!
Al : Alex!! sigh... it seems you''re fine~
Eliz : Hmph! it''s unfortunate that you still alive
Silvi : Master, did you hurt somewhere?
The Silver Wolf : [Master!!]
Hearing his woman worried voice, Alex couldn''t help himself to feel his heart being warmed by their''s attention and concern. He smiled at them before appeasing their worries with his lively voice
Alex : hahaha thanks a lot, but I am fine~ and Eliz, I don''t know that you are a tsundere? hohoho what a cuties
Eliz : sundere? what is that? by the sounds of it, I know it''s not apliment! this bastard!! I-i gnununu... humph!
Eliz face be red before she left his ce and rushed toward the battlefield once again. seeing Eliz who left to vent out her irritating heart to the monster, all the woman realized that isn''t the time for warm greetings and decided to leave for assisting the guard''s army and adventurer after gave a kiss to Alex''s cheek.
After getting his greetings kiss, Alex joined them and readied himself by summoning hundred of translucent Sword Qi from his body before shouting in high spirit!
Alex : okay, let''s continue the EXP-fest!
Chali/Silvia/Silver Wolf : uhm!!
Al : This expi fest again... what are those words mean?
..

Not far from them, the group of adventurer busily deal with a group of B rank High Kobold. one of the members, Adventurer B who seemingly saw the scene where Alex get lovey-dovey with thedies be jealous and started ranting his annoyance as he hitting the High-Kobold in front of him with his spear!
Zssubbb!!
Awooooo!!!
Adventurer B : What I said before?!! Look at that Bastard?! he is flirting while we still busying ourselves to deal with these hideous things!!! AGH!!! HAT!!
Szaaaab szaab!!
Adventurer A : I know what you feel, but he has the strength, so why the hell are youining for? if you wanna be like him then go kill these monsters to level up! and getting stronger! Ha!
Awooo!!
Adventurer B : What?! this idiot!!! how could you say that so easily?!! he is the Unique skill holder or maybe Legendary skill bearer now after his strength became grandmaster! do you think it''s that easy for a normal person to like us to be stronger?! as expected, you guys really idi-AGH!!!
Before adventurer B could finish his word, the High-Kobold kick him in the ass and made him stumbled far away in a scream!
Adventurer D : OH!! good job kobold! but still you have to die here!! haaat!!
As Adventurer D trying to sh the High-Kobold neck
[GRUUUUUUUUUUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!]
The mad howl of a beast from deep inside the forest reverberated madly throughout the battlefield as it made the earth under them to tremble!
Hearing this majestic and creepy howl, all of a sudden, the monster in the battlefield started retreating and left in a hurried manner toward the howl direction.
Looking at this scene, all the people on the battlefield be dumbfounded as they hesitated to let the monster go or chasing after them deep inside the forest but this situation wasn''t continued for long
Harminton : Retreaattt!!!!
With the signal from Harminton, all the adventurers began to take their spoils and retreated to the town gate direction. Eliz who saw these scene hurriedly checked her surrounding for a while before gave the samemand to the town guards after seeing they tired and messed up appearances
Eliz : Thanks for your service as well as for fulfilling your duty to defend the Arkhaim Town! The Federic House will reward you all for your valor! for now! take the spoils and back to the town!
Guards : Ha!!!!
The guards started taking the corpses of their spoils before back in an orderly manner to the town direction.
Not far from them, Alex still holding his chin while thinking about the monster''s weird movement. maybe, if he was in perfect condition, he would chase them without a second thought but after sparing with Li Gang, he already spent 80% of his strength. If what Al or adventurer guild information about the S ss monster led this horde was true, then it''ll quite risky for him to deal with them now.
Alex : Is it really over?
As Alex still dwelling in his own though, suddenly, he saw Eliz appearance who busily ordering the guards as she stole a nce at his direction from time to time. Eliz who realized that Alex noticed her, snorted in irritation before left with the guards
Alex : better think about this thing forter after recovering all my strength, for now, let''s take care of the tsundere elven sses first mwheheheheh~ ( )
