Pride smiled lightly as she sensed the deaths of the two bandit leaders, her expression turning stern the moment after as she gazed at the monstrosity that was in front of her.
"I guess I'd better finish up too, huh?"
The spasming creature in front of her that was once the first leader of the Mountain Bandit gang, roared wildly as it stretched on of its many arms in her direction.
"Burn."
The high demon called out with a tinge of rage in her voice as the demonic energy scattered in the atmosphere moved to fulfil her command.
"GWWOOUGHHHHHHH!!!""
Black flames engulfed the monstrosity that had absorbed the bodies of all its subordinates, as well as the trio of prisoners who had been unlucky to be captured by the bandits as it began to scream in pain.
"Wind Blade."
She rose her sword and swung it multiple times, sending out blades of compressed wind magic that tore through the body of the monstrosity, reducing it to mere chunks of meat within a minute.
"This...is no coincidence."
She gazed at the burning pieces of flesh on the floor and thought about the fact that Evan would undoubtedly lose if he was to battle the abomination she had just killed.
"To think that some people still have access to such disgusting magic items."
Walking up to the centre of the room, she rose her black blade and stabbed it into the black gem on the floor, shattering the gem and releasing the poor souls trapped within.
Turning around, she began to walk out of the room, not before calling out the name of one of her skills.
"Aura of Pride: Flames of Hubris."
An orb of black flames appeared in the centre of the room, floating there silently, until she left the room and closed the door.
**KAAAABOOOOOMMM!!!!
The orb of flames exploded, shaking the entire rock and causing the cave to collapse inwards, destroying everything within it.
"I have to recover my power, fast."
Pride spoke out those words while she clenched and unclenched her fists multiple times as she walked out of the collapsing cave.
◇ ◇ ◇
Upon reaching outside, Pride was met with the scene of Evan laying on the floor while staring at the sky.
The forest around them was now a small wasteland with scorched earth and burnt trees everywhere, making Pride wonder exactly what transpired here.
"Good, you're done.
Let's go, I'm tired as fuck."
Evan pulled himself off the ground and heaved a sigh as he picked up his space expansion bag from the ground and began to walk out of the forest.
Pride looked around and saw that the two bandit leader's corpses were missing their heads and instantly figured out what Evan had in the bag.
She shrugged her shoulders as she unsummoned her sword before following behind as she looked over her status board.

Unknown Area

November 3rd
Year 1051
"Did you feel it?"
"Yes, I definitely did. That was a 'Pseudo-Authority'."
Two beings sat at a table beside a dried-up fountain as they moved their respective pieces across the chess board that sat atop the wooden table.
One of them was a man with brown hair and skin, his clothes consisting of a simple short sleeved tunic shirt and shorts, as opposed to the man opposite him who wore long sleeves and trousers.
The other man was someone with fair skin and long hair tied up in a ponytail. His hair sparkled with the lights of more colours than there were on a rainbow.
Suddenly, water began surging from the top of the dried-up fountain, causing the two men to turn their gazes in the direction of the fountain.
When the water reached a suitable level, it suddenly condensed together and formed a small oval cocoon about a meter in diameter and two meters in height.
The next moment, the cocoon burst open and a being emerged from within.
It was a beautiful woman whose long hair and gown were made of water, fish-like fins in place of ears, blue eyes and pale skin that almost looks blue.
She blatantly ignored the brown eyed man and turned her gaze to the multi-coloured haired man, her gaze softening as she spoke.
"A new lightning child has been born. I am moving to find them."
The man held a hand to his chin and pondered on her words for a few moments before nodding in affirmation.
"Be careful."
The blue-eyed woman nodded as she entered back into the cocoon that closed up and returned to the fountain water body.
The next moment, the fountain water dried up instantly, however, the two men ignored this and carried on with their game of chess.

'No shit!'
Evan cussed internally as he awaited his adventurer card at the counter of the adventurer's guild in Geto.
He had gotten stronger considerably over the past few months he had been away from the capital, his 300% leveling efficiency proving to be more useful than he had expected.
Upon looking at his status board, he also discovered that at one point, it had been his birthday and had completely forgotten about it.
Thinking along those lines, he realised that it had been more than a year since he came to Aidos.
He turned his gaze to the small lightning spirit that was sleeping on his shoulder in the form of a cat and appraised her, the results making him heave a sigh of exasperation.

'When did she become a Gold level existence? More importantly, what the hell is that new unique skill?!'
He tried appraising the spirit's new unique skill but the results were less than desirable.
| Pseudo-Authority of Lightning;
Type: la#s1#7i5 Unique Skill
This skill cannot be lost or taken away, except certain conditions are met.
Effect;
The ability to control the power of one of the kb#!^"g7# 3B8 @:x#4c doctrines that exist in the vicissitudes of time. This skill grants one a Pseudo Authority over the kb#!^"g7#3B8 @:x#4c of Lightning.
With this, one can manipulate one of the essences of the kb#!^"g7#3B8 at the 21cis rank. |
It seemed to be some sort of lightning control ability, but there were too many unknowns in this ability that made Evan worried.
'Troublesome. I would have liked to ask Artemisia, but...'
For the past month, Artemisia stopped responding to him after telling him that the search for him had been called off by the emperor.
This placed a smile on Evan's face as he knew that Laurene had indeed helped him out like she said she would.
Since then, he had not heard a single word from the goddess and was unable to even contact with the being who gave him his 'Blessing of Destruction' skill.
'Then again, maybe it's good that she isn't answering. I'd been relying on her a bit too much.'
Those were Evan's thoughts as he rose his head to see the receptionist who smiled depreciatingly as she gave him his D rank adventurer card.
"Congratulations on becoming a D Rank at your age, it's something never seen before."
Evan nodded as he collected the card, yawning a bit before asking about the reason he came to this city in the first place.
"Since I'm D rank, I can join the Spid-, the new dungeon exploration, right?"
"...Yes, you can. However, are you sure? It is an unknown dungeon? Even C rank adventurers are skeptical about going in."
"I'm sure. I have my reasons for going."
The young woman sighed once more upon seeing that Evan would not let himself be convinced by her. She quickly scanned his card and confirmed his participation in the dungeon exploration.
"The information on the meeting dates would be sent via your card."
After giving him back the card, she hurriedly looked around and leaned over before whispering in Evan's ear.
"I don't know what you did but some of the higher ups seem to have it out for you. Leave this city as soon as possible to avoid getting caught up with them."
She then resumed her normal posture and continued.
"Thank you for adventuring with us, see you next time."
Evan frowned when he heard the message but he instantly controlled his expression and nodded in affirmation.
He thanked her and began walking towards the exit of the guild until he inadvertently caught the sight of someone he recognized.
His expression changed to one of shock as the person that Evan recognized, was not someone who should be in this part of the continent at all!
