Villain's Valor: A Noble Fantasy Resurrection

Chapter 39: Chapter 39: Mission E (7)

The monsters were decreasing; their large number was dwindling. Looking around, I realize that the atmosphere is getting a bit clearer, the atmospheric mana is lowering, returning to normal, but first, we have to finish off the remaining monsters.

Slash! Clank!

The seven of us were giving our best, attacking from all sides. We made a great team; the monsters didn't stand a chance.

Boom!

Reynolds' shield was stained with blood; his armor was battered. Everyone else was tired, and I too was feeling the fatigue. Almost 2 hours of pure battle, but the good thing is that we're almost done.

Slash! Clink!

Attacking a couple of them to my left, I quickly finish them off. They're almost done.

Executing my footwork, I finish off the last 5 remaining ones, disappear from my position, and an attack cuts them all in half.

Looking around, I see everyone with expressions of fatigue. 1 hour of fighting is no joke. I observe the severed members of all the monsters: guts, heads, and blood. The bastards still had that damn smile on their faces. Looking at all the bodies scattered everywhere, I feel a bit disgusted. I've never seen a scene like this. My hands shake a bit. Taking deep breaths, I calm my thoughts. It was necessary; it had to be this way. It was them or me and Elsa. They weren't human; they were monsters.

"Good job, kid, thanks for your help. If it weren't for you, the situation wouldn't have turned out so well." Looking into his eyes, I see his sincere gratitude. I sigh, "Thanks for the help too."

I hear footsteps running in my direction, and I see Elsa, hugging me. I feel her body trembling a bit. She's very strong. Although she was scared, she faced it head-on and gathered courage.

"Are you okay, brother?" She looks at me with teary eyes. She's very adorable. Smiling, I pat her head.

"I'm fine, don't worry."

"Uhmm," she nods.

Reynolds' team gathered separately and talked a bit.

Looking at all the bodies on the ground, there are too many. Although they are F-rank, the orbs sell well in the market. Each one is worth 3 gold.

Looking at the experience I gained.

[2000/40,000]

[Ding! The system is readjusting the required experience to rank up. The system considers the monsters too weak. The system considers the host too strong for their rank.]

[The system is analyzing] [Analyzing] [Analyzing...]

[Warning! An intruder has been detected]

[Warning!]

[Warning!]

[Warning!]

[Ding! The required experience to rank up to gold is]

[3000/160,000]

[Ding! Congratulations! The mission given by the system has been completed]

[Ding! Congratulations! The host has been given the ability of mana orb purification]

[Description: Fallen in filth, their souls are corrupted with the greatest sins. Fallen in madness, their bodies are tainted by the greatest desires. This ability allows the host to purify their orbs to obtain 100% pure essence.]

Looking stunned at the system, I am in shock. The original 40,000 required experience suddenly quadrupled.

"System, what just happened?"

[...]

[Ding! The intruder is directly linked to the host, changing experience statistics]

"Wait, what do you mean?"

[The host within...]

[Warning! Connection severed] [New connection created with a ??????? of high level, level of SUPERIOR existence!]

[New connection created with a ??????? high level, HIGHER level of existence!]

[Kid, it's not the time for you to know what you are!]

I felt my soul tremble; my soul was shaking, crying, cold sweat ran down my back.

His voice was so deep and low, majestic. I couldn't put words together. His words were like laws with no room for protest. My expression turned pale; I've never felt so much fear in my life.

My legs were shaking, my breathing became irregular.

Elsa noticing that something strange is happening calls out to me.

"Brother, what's happening to you!?"

Regaining my senses and control of my body, I quickly turn my head towards her, give her a reassuring smile, and tell her everything is fine.

Although with some doubt, she doesn't ask anything more.

My thoughts raced through my brain. What happened a moment ago? What was that voice? Who was it? What is it? Its voice, unlike the robotic system, was like that of a real person. According to what's in my soul...

Damn it, the soul of a living creature is the most delicate place; the slightest fracture can cause death or explode directly. It is also the place where corruption is present.

I don't think it has bad intentions because if it did, I would be in trouble already. Right now, it has control over my life. Clenching my teeth, I feel anger taking over me. I don't know who it is, and I don't know what it plans with me. It's an ugly feeling to know that your life is in the hands of others.

I have no information. This was never discussed in the novel. Can I still trust the details of the novel? I'm not sure. There are many variables present. First, it possesses the body of the real Anthony, then I encountered Elsa, and now this. I don't know what's going on.

Cursing my luck internally.

"Kid, thank you very much for helping us. How about we take 25% of the spoils of war, and you can keep the 75%? How does that sound?"

Being pulled out of my thoughts, I look at the front group.

"First, let me introduce myself again. I'm Reynolds, the leader of the group," looking towards the mage woman, he says, "This is my wife, Camila. This is David, the group's assassin, and finally, these two are Eduardo and Cristina."

"Thanks for saving us," they say, bowing their heads.

I feel a bit awkward about their sincerity, but considering that they brought more monsters with them, maybe they feel guilty.

"No problem, and you didn't run away, you decided to help me, so we're good."

"And about the spoils of war, don't worry, we can split them half and half without any problem."

The reason is simple: they are good people, and it's better to have a good relationship. What's better than sharing the loot equally? I killed most of them, a total of 60 monsters, and they killed about 40 more or less, making a total of 100 F-rank monsters. So, each mana orb is worth 3 gold, multiplied by 50, it's a total of 150 gold coins. Besides, I'll share the money with Elsa, but of course, we won't sell all of them. We need them to absorb the essence, and Reynolds has to divide it for 5 people.

By dividing half of the loot, I create a good impression and understanding that money is not as important as building relationships. They will see me in a different light and be grateful to me. I already have the money; it's always good to have more

"Are you serious? I don't think we should take half from you..." Reynolds' wife says.

"Hehehehe, I insist, you can keep it. I don't mind that much, really."

"You're very kind, Bryan. "Do you know that kindness is bad in this place?"?"

"I'm well aware, but you guys are good people. I have a good impression of you."

"Also, you can take it as a small favor you owe me. What do you think?"

"If you need my help, I'll gladly help you," says Reynolds. He's very big and muscular, not too much, but okay. He has the expression of a loving father; I felt a bit weird.

*cough cough*

Coughing a bit to suppress my embarrassment, I say, "Sure."

We disperse to gather all the orbs in one place.

After a few minutes, in the middle of us were a total of 101 orbs shining with a brown color. It was very mystical.

And as we agreed, I took a total of 51 orbs, and they took the remaining 50.
