Realm of Myths and Legends



A few moments ago, Izroth treaded up the steep mountain using the Wall Walking skill and came upon a ledge. When he stepped onto the ledge just now, the first thing that came into sight a few meters away from him was the entrance to a mysterious dark cave.

Izroth briefly extended his Energy Vision Sense to its maximum range as he thoroughly checked his surroundings.

'Good. He is heading back the exact way we came.'

Izroth spotted Hazard with his Energy Vision Sense and confirmed that he was on his way out of the heart of Fragul's Valley.

'Who would have thought that I would meet someone like you here of all places? Kalseign... ' A carefree smile formed on Izroth's face as he recalled his time in the Seven Realms.

Kalseign—a man with no particular talents or gifts. In terms of cultivation, there were countless individuals more powerful than him. As for his background and status, both were not even worth mentioning.

However, Kalseign constantly fought against fate. He worked ten times harder to prove himself because he knew how unfair the world was. He was aware of his own weakness, but he never let that stop him. In the end, while Kalseign was never a top-tier cultivator in the Seven Realms, through his efforts, he became the Fate Breaking Warlord who led the Great Realmbreaker Army.

The Great Realmbreaker Army was known throughout the Seven Realms for its fierce nature, strength, and unrivaled tenacity.

Needless to say, Izroth was not expecting Hazard to become someone like Kalseign. After all, it was not easy to fight against one's fate. But, the similarities Izroth saw between the two made him want to take a chance on Hazard.

After confirming that nothing was out of place, Izroth walked toward the entrance of the dark cave. The system sounded an alert the moment he approached within a few meters of the entrance.

[System Alert: Warning! You are about to enter <«<???'s Cave>>.

Izroth walked into the cave without halting his steps as he disappeared into the darkness.

...

'I thought it would be dark inside, but it's actually well-lit. Though, it is smaller than I expected.' When Izroth entered ???'s Cave, the inside had plenty of lighting that came from an unknown source. However, when Izroth looked back toward the entrance, all he could see was darkness.

'My Energy Vision Sense is still not functioning properly. It looks like I will have to explore ahead the normal way.'

At the moment, Izroth was traveling down a narrow pathway big enough to fit two people if they stood shoulder to shoulder. The walls, ceiling, and ground all seemed to be a natural part of the earth, but they were incredibly sturdy and filled with mana.

'Strange, the walls in this place do not feel like earth magic, yet every last fragment is filled with mana that I have never seen naturally in this world.'

As Izroth examined his new environment, he reached the end of the short pathway and came to a small open space roughly five meters across in both directions.

'Oh? What's this?'

In the center of the room was a flat stone roughly one meter high and one meter wide. There was nothing special about the stone except for its unnaturally smooth surface. However, what caught one's attention was not the object itself but rather the thing that sat on top of it.

It was a thin creature that resembled an imp. It was approximately half a meter tall, with a horn protruding from its forehead, golden skin, beady red eyes, and long bony fingers with sharpened fingernails at the ends.

The creature gave off a strange aura as if it were not part of the world but a separate entity. In front of the creature were three treasure chests with similar appearances, but all different colors.

The chest on the left was red, the one in the middle white, and the last on the right was black. There was nothing that seemed to separate the chests outside of their colors.

Izroth viewed the information of the creature before him that revealed itself through the system.

Name: Imp of Dreams (Legendary Mythical Creature)

Level: ???

HP: ??? (100%)

"This is a mythical creature? It does not seem that different from a regular monster. Still, I would be a fool to judge it based on its appearance alone.'

The creature looked scrawny and weak, as though even a strong breeze would be enough to take it out. Nonetheless, it was a mythical creature-more importantly, it was a legendary mythical creature!

"To think Broken Exile has been hiding something like this. I guess the top guilds have quite a few secrets.'

If word got out that there was a legendary mythical creature located in Fragul's Valley, even if Broken Exile was one of the strongest top guilds, they did not have the power to stop all the other top guilds from swarming this place. At that point, whether or not Fragul's Valley belonged to Broken Exile or not, there would be a battle over the rights of the legendary mythical creature.

'Imp of Dreams... The name doesn't sound familiar. It's also strange how it stays in one location even after encountering others. Then, was the information I read in those books about mythical creatures incorrect or outdated?'

According to one of the books Izroth read about mythical creatures in the Amaharpe Palace Library, once certain conditions were met and the person who met those conditions was rewarded, the mythical creature would leave and set off to a new destination. No one knew what that location would be, nor could it be predicted.

Feral Blade clearly mentioned that a legendary item was given last time. Hazard also confirmed that those from Broken Exile had come to this place at least once before Feral

Blade.

If the Imp of Dreams was still in this location, it meant that this was, at the very least, the third time one was able to claim a reward from it.

Izroth used Deep Insight to inspect the Imp of Dreams and all three chests. Then, he took the next minute and a half to use Appraisal for another point of view.

'How strange.'

[System Alert: [1] Flaw has been discovered in <<Imp of Dreams»>![]

[System Alert: Flaw [1]: This creature does not belong to its current world.

[System Alert: [1] Flaw has been discovered in <<Red Chest of Dreams>>! [System Alert: Flaw [1]: This object does not belong to its current world. [System Alert: [1] Flaw has been discovered in <<White Chest of Dreams>>! [System Alert: Flaw [1]: This object does not belong to its current world. [System Alert: [1] Flaw has been discovered in <<Black Chest of Dreams>>! [System Alert: Flaw [1]: This object does not belong to its current world. Name: Imp of Dreams (Legendary Mythical Creature)

Level: ???

HP: ??? (100%)

~Appraisal~

Physical Condition: None

~ Appraisal~

The same message appeared for the Imp of Dreams and the three chests when Izroth used Deep Insight. Each of them did not belong to its current world. Instead of giving answers, it

led to more questions.

When it came to the Appraisal skill, it was less helpful as all it showed was the Imp of Dreams physical condition, which was listed as none. As for the three chests, it did not reveal anything about them besides what the system already showed Izroth.

Izroth also carefully surveyed the room from top to bottom. The room itself was not that large, so it did not take him long to complete his inspection. After doing so, he found that there were no hidden mechanisms leading to another room, nor did there seem to be any traps

installed.

'Am I overthinking it?'

Izroth did not find anything out of the ordinary. But, for some reason, he could not shake the feeling that something was off and things were not as straightforward as they appeared.

'If it were those guys from Broken Exile, they would have undoubtedly just picked a chest. For now, let's just see what happens after I pick one.'

Since merely observing was not getting him anywhere, Izroth decided to open one of the chests himself to see what would happen. Besides, if things got too dangerous, he was

confident in protecting himself.

'Let's go with this one.'

Izroth turned his attention to the black chest located on the right side in front of the Imp of Dreams. Then, without hesitation, Izroth reached down to open the chest.

[System Alert: You have opened <<Black Chest of Dreams>>.[]

[System Alert: You have received x1 <<Umbral Imp Horn».

A sleek black dagger in the rough shape of a jagged horn with a smooth silver handle appeared

in Izroth's hand as he examined the item.

Weapon Name: Umbral Imp Horn

As Izroth examined the item, it caused him to inwardly frown. The item was certainly worthy

of being a legendary-ranked item; however, Izroth could still not shake the feeling that something was not right.

"This dagger has the same text as the imp and treasure chests. Plus, its usage requirements... Even for a legendary item, it's too good. What is this uneasy feeling?'
