198 Requirement To Unseal
Randy could care less about what that grey-haired middle-aged man might think of him, but he could not simply act out of place in this new world, so he ultimately decided that if meets him again, he planned on apologizing to him to smooth things out between them.
Although Randy did not like bowing to people mostly because of his previous experience of dealing with people who looked down on him in the past, he thought it was necessary to not act out like his place while in this world if he wanted to survive for a long time.
With that in mind, he ignored the situation with the strange middle-aged man altogether, stowed away his sword, and proceeded into his room. A short while later, he came back out after undressing himself with only a tower on and then headed towards the public shower, which was located within the building’s lower floor to clean himself.
...
At the same time.
In the castle of that beautiful woman, who adorned colorful red dress.
At this time, a subordinate announced his presence to her behind a very huge and decorated gate. The beautiful woman frowned slightly as she was not expecting anyone’s report at this time, but after pondering for a bit, she let him in a moment later.
After being allowed entry by her, the subordinate slowly staggered into her throne room, seemingly in a weakened state. That had undoubtedly caught the attention of the beautiful woman.
As the beautiful woman saw the battered appearance of the man who came into her throne room, who seemed to be her subordinate, she immediately frowned deeply, but she did not react much and proceeded to wait for her to explain himself.
.....
If Randy had been here, he would have easily recognized that this subordinate was the vampire man who had attacked him a while ago. After barely escaping with his life, this vampire man came to report the situation to his superior.
Upon making a certain away from his superior, the vampire man bowed and then said in a reverent tone: “Greetings, my queen!”
The beautiful woman was impatient and thus questioned with a stern voice shortly after while ignoring his solemn greetings: “What happened to your body?!”
“My queen, earlier, I was attacked by a strange human near the Alpheotus City’s Dungeon of beasts.” The subordinate quickly responded to her.
“What do you mean by strange human?!” The beautiful woman showed an unperturbed expression, but she was inwardly shocked when she heard this, especially when looking at the sorry state that her subordinate was currently in.
She even wondered who could have done such a thing to him, considering the regeneration ability of this subordinate of hers. Unless the other party was vastly stronger than him, or on of those people from the church, they should not have been able to cause him that much damage.
However, she quickly calmed down when she noticed that something was very strange about this whole situation, and thus before the subordinate could even respond, she deeply looked at him before doubtfully asking: “No, more importantly, what were you doing in the territory of the humans?!”
“...”
The subordinate did not expect such a response from her superior, considering the severity and significance of his report just now, and thus remained silent, unable to answer her question.
Boom!
“Arghhhhhhh!!!”
The subordinate started screaming in pain when he suddenly felt an overwhelming pressure over his already battered body, attempting to break every single bone in his body.
The beautiful woman deeply frowned further and angrily spoke: “Answer my question! If you do not want to gruesomely die from having all your bones and organs flattened, then speak!!”
Without waiting for the subordinate to respond again, she added: “You dared to disobey my orders to not interfere with the humans as it would affect our plans.”
“Did I not mention that If they do not enter the Meistic forest they should be left alone? Going by all your previous blatant actions, it appears that many of you disregarded my words and did whatever you wanted on your own accord.” She continued.
Amidst the agonizing pain from his bones being constantly broken and then repaired at a rapid rate, the vampire man struggled to say: “My queen, please forgive my transgression this time.”
And then he continued: “That human who defeated me appeared to be capable of using the ability of our kind- he could manipulate blood. Not his blood but my blood that had been enhanced with my blood spell.”
???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????
“What?!”
The beautiful was genuinely shocked when she heard this. This time, she did not bother to hide her shocked expression. But she immediately pondered to herself.
‘A human capable of manipulating blood? Other than that young man that I observed recently, are there others that could also manipulate blood among the humans?” She was puzzled by this discovery as it could impact their plans and her mission in coming to this Meistic forest.
The beautiful woman pondered for a short while, then she thought of something before questioning in a cold voice: “Do you remember what attire they were wearing when you met them?”
“Eh?” The vampire man appeared surprised upon hearing this strange question, but he was glad that his queen was no longer furious as the pressure on his body diminished, so he quickly answered: “That human was wearing a long black coat, which seemed to be some type crafted armor or an item from the dungeon. But I am not really sure myself.”
The vampire man recalled the young man’s clothes, which seemed to have a different style of fashion when compared to the humans in their world. But he remembered that those types of clothes were usually found in the dungeons.
“Hmm...” The beautiful woman soon fell in deep thought after hearing this response.
‘That was not the same clothes that young man wore before leaving. Is it perhaps another person with the same ability or his comrade? If that ends up being either case, I wonder what the humans are planning this time? It seems like I’ll have to tell that person about this matter.”
The beautiful woman hesitated for a bit after deciding on her next course of action regarding this matter. However, she soon dismissed her reluctance and said to the vampire man: “Go and inform the leader of the troops, Sedric, to be prepared for any attacks or invasion from the humans.
She then coldly glared at the vampire man and declared while emanating a gloomy chilling aura from her body: “As for you, this would have to be your last time. If I ever find out that you’re out of bounds and not doing your tasks properly as instructed, I would neither spare you nor let you die a quick for such disobedience and transgression against our lord’s plans. You should count yourself very lucky that presently we need as many abled men as possible to fight against the church when necessary. Otherwise, the next time this happens, it would not matter whether we needed many people to fight against the church or not because you would still receive your punishment, so bear that in mind.”
‘Eeek!’ The vampire man inwardly shuddered when he felt the bone-chilling murderous aura wash over his body just now. However, he did not react much on the outside.
“Now, get out of my sight before I change my mind!”
The vampire man did not linger and quickly left the throne room while ignoring the sound of his bones rattling unpleasantly from being exacerbated by the pressure earlier.
After he left, the beautiful woman proceeded to ponder to herself for a few moments before sighing and muttering: “I hope those humans are not foolish enough to attempt something that could spell the end of their species. But I highly doubt that with their strange movements and actions as of lately.”
Her voice sounded almost sympathetic as she spoke these words and yet at the same time sounded apathetic, making it hard to discern her true thoughts as she spoke just now.
...
Alpheotus City.
Dungeon Exploration Occupation Society’s Building.
Inside Randy’s assigned room.
After cleaning him in the public bath, Randy came back to his room and immediately sat on his bed after putting on some clothes.
At this moment, he went ahead and took out the items that he had attained recently and then laid them on his bed afterward.
Back in his world, he acquired a few storage items from the sunglasses man and his subordinates, and at the time, he could check the things inside because of the seals placed on them. And in this world, he acquired the spatial pouch from that blonde man after killing him, and he found out afterward that he could not open the storage pouch no matter how much he tried to insert energy into it.
With all these items prepared on his bed, Randy could not afford to wait any longer, and thus, he straightened himself and then looked in the void in front of himself, specifically on the golden screen projected in front of his vision.
He then spoke: “System, can you now tell me about the rewards for completion of the quest?”
As soon as the system received his question, a few lines of text started scrolling on the projected screen in front of him.
[[You have completed the quest, ‘Kill 1000 Dungeon Beasts’]]
[[Quest Reward: A hint from the system on how to unseal one of the items that you have obtained recently]]
[[Would you like to receive the quest reward right now?]]
“Yes.” Randy replied.
[[Response Acknowledged]]
[[From now on, the system would inform the host of the requirement to unseal the black tome that the host has acquired recently]]
