Re: Player – Chapter 39

Chapter 39 Phantom

Chapter 39: [Phantom!]

“Ummm… excuse me. Can you please stop bothering her?” I asked politely as I observed those adventurers. No point in ruining a date when we can try solving with words, right?

“Huh? Who are you?” the three of them turned around while the one at the center tried analyzing me.

“Is there any problem, Mr?” the one on the left asked with a cautious look. He, too, was sizing me up.

“Adam!!” Evelyn, who was the most happy at my arrival, rushed towards me and held me by the arm as she tightendly gripped me closer to her.

“As you can see, I am her date,” I spoke as I pointed at her before adding,” now. If you will excuse us.”

I moved past them with Evelyn still hugging my arm, but I felt a hand on my shoulder, making me halt my steps. Turning around, I saw the one at the center looking at me with a threatening look.

Perhaps because his stats were lower than mine, I could see his status much more than others. If I were to guess, it must be the difference in the Wisdom Stat? Well, we can experiment with it later.

[Super Strength!]

I removed his hand from my shoulder and then pressed it lightly, before increasing the pressure. I saw his expression changing as he fell down to the ground while crying in pain.

“It’s a simple warning. Don’t do anything rash,” I spoke before letting his hand go. A sigh escaped my mouth before looking at Evelyn as I spoke.” apologies that you had to see something like that.”

She looked at me dazed as she muttered,” Ah!… okay… ”

We then entered the restaurant, ignoring the attention of everyone who was observing us with a rather amazed look. Inside the restaurant, it didn’t take long before we found a table on the top floor.

Under the moonlight, the corner seats in the restaurant seemed rather pleasant. The white tablecloth on which the wine glasses and the plates were already arranged appeared quite high end. There was a waiter standing by each table, whether the table was filled or not.

Moving to the second last table, I helped Evelyn first before sitting opposite to her. Looking at the menu, I said,”So what would the lady prefer to eat?”

“I will have the restaurant’s special. Also, for starters, can you get me Sea Griffin’s soup? A bit of sesame salt would be nice as well,” she said before looking at me,” should I order for you as well?”

I nodded before she ordered for me as well, before adding a couple of drinks to the order at the end.

Once the waiter was gone, she finally relaxed a little before turning to me,

“So what’s your story?”

“What do you mean by that?” I asked with a mysterious smile.

“Aren’t adventurers filled with peculiar stories of their own? Certainly, you too would have your own,” she asked as she poured a bit of water for me before pouring for herself.

“I guess I do have some. But it wouldn’t be fair to share a bit of mine before hearing some, don’t you think?” I spoke as I drank the water. The water was a bit cold, quenching my thirst, before spreading a cooling sensation through my throat.

“Me? Well, personally, I don’t have much to tell from my side. Same old boring receptionist job at the guild while handling adventurers. At home, I take care of my younger brother and sisters, and the leftover time goes into shopping. It was a bit miraculous that I even got time today,” she said before looking at the distant horizon.

“Though… I got some juicy information a few hours earlier,” she suddenly gave me a side eye before adding,” you have heard about the Mirag Town?”

‘…’

I couldn’t speak anything, as I tried my best to maintain a poker expression.

“Supposedly, something big happened there before dawn. The whole guild was going crazy this afternoon, sending a bunch of high-class adventurers there. Not only that, even the Saintess and her guard went there. They should be reaching there by now,” she explained what she heard.

“Any idea what the reason could be?” I asked curiously, and she sighed,” it is a rumor but an Ancient God was involved in this. There was a sacrifice that was going to occur, but it was stopped at the very last moment by a certain someone.”

“Somebody stopped the Ancient Gods’ sacrifice? Isn’t that a bit far-fetched?” I acted surprised, and she nodded as well,” exactly!! But well… the commotion is making people doubt things a lot. I mean, even the Saintess is involved.”

“Hmmm… so? Anything about the miraculous God stopping man?” I smirked, making her chuckle a little,” not really. People of Mirag Town are calling him a Messiah sent by the Goddess of Light. Though most people are calling him by the name of ‘Phantom’.”

“Seems like Mirag Town is going to be the center of attention for the time being,” I analyzed it. In fact, I already knew it. An Ancient God, a giant circle at the center of the city, 1000s of people almost sacrificed and the miraculous man who flipped the entire situation.

‘They probably have found the body of the necromancer and the illusion mage as well,’ I thought before looking at her as she continued,” I guess so. More and more people will be visiting the town. Well, that’s all I know about it for now… it’s your turn. Tell me about yourself.”

I smiled as I spoke,” well. It’s not as much of a secret, but I am more of a battle mage that can use light magic. Even though I could use light magic, I don’t have any offensive spells. So I usually use it for healing while focusing on close combat.”

I spoke before pondering, then adding,

“I am from a small town in the west. You probably haven’t even heard of it. I came here to find out if I could use light magic, though honestly I don’t want to rely on the church for it. Personal reasons.”

She nodded as she spoke,” I understand. You aren’t the first light mage who doesn’t want to be affiliated with the church… I guess I can help you out with that. There is a man named Oriel, within the guild. An S-Class Adventurer… He is probably your best shot at learning any spells.”

“I will keep that in mind. Is there anything else you are curious about?” I looked at her, making her chuckle before she put her finger on her lips as she began thinking.

“Let me see…. Yeah! What are your plans after learning light magic?” she asked as she observed me and I nodded before speaking.” I will be leaving for another city. There is someone… or more like a group of people that I need to meet.”

“Eh? So you won’t be here for that long? That’s a bummer… Which city, by the way?” She looked at me and I just smiled at her before she sighed and didn’t ask any further questions about it.

Status: Ongoing Type: Author: Released: 2023 Native Language: English
Being thrown into the game-world of [Call of the Black Magicians], Adam was forced to survive with no prior information. Except for his memories of the Game-World and his name, he did not have any memories of his previous life. But fret not, even though the Game-World had many perils and was on the verge of extinction at every next step, it also had its beauty and magic, one to die for. With the authority of [Player], he could save and restart until he achieved his desired result. He could learn skills of the ‘NPCs’ and achieve the results like the ‘Players.’ He could literally solo the entire game world to achieve his desired results. Whether he wants to save the world or destroy it, he could do it… as many times as he wishes. Even the [Black Magicians] won’t be able to do anything about it… probably. But was it all there was to it? [Beta Version 0.1 will begin in 6 Months: 29 days: 23 Hours!] I guess not… … Description: In the World of Zarraf, their lives Gods, not all Gods are good and certainly none are without motives. They rule the world’s 7 nations: The Nation of Light and Sun The Nation of Water The Nation of Fire The Nation of Life The Nation of Earth The Nation of Moon The Nation of Wind Each ruled by a goddess that has their own stance in their ruling. But that is only the first page of this world. The second page colors the Ancient Gods of Corruption, Rage, Curse, Death and Hate. The third belongs the Seven Sins’ Incarnations that are ready to succeed the Ancient Gods. The Fourth is of the Witches who stand against all Gods equally. And the Final Page colors the [Immortals] or otherwise known as [Players] that will be summoned to bring Chaos to this world. A World that was meant to be destroyed. Such is the fate of the world of Zarraf, as powers beyond the realm of mortals threaten the dynamic equilibrium of their existence. In the end, the world was prophesied to be destroyed by one cause or another. Nothing could prevent looming destruction… Or so... It was supposed to happen… … Hey, Author here to give a quick glance at a couple of things that are normally asked. Harem? Yes Romance? Yes System? Obviously Smut? Oh yes! Adventure RPG? Yes. Power Creeping? Not really. Overpowered? Depends on how you see it Smart MC? I guess so. Wise MC? Yes Something you need to know before you read The MC has the ability to [Save] a point (there are some conditions), with which he can return in time. So basically, he is an immortal. Though that doesn’t make him invincible from the start, rather he grows by making correct choices. The World is dynamic and pretty much anything can happen anytime. (It’s just my way of saying that there will be twists… pretty much unexpected ones as well). And then there will be solutions to those unexpected situations as well, depending upon the absurdity of it. (I won’t have any more plot armor since I gave him a pretty big buff of immortality, so everything will be connected and won’t just happen by luck. Everything will be cleared by the end of an arc, so you need to be patient before deciding on it.) It has a mix of everything. Thriller, Adventure, Action, Smut, Romance, Slice of Life, etc. so there is that as well. ……. [Mature Warning: This Novel Contains R-18 Content!]
