Chapter 696: The Fan III

It seems that she is the last user of Shunpo a technique reserved to those with the job class of Flash Goddess. I do not care though as I will not become a Kunoichi. That is the only reason I accepted anyways.

The old woman and I started our special training in a very hidden place in the eastern continent. I successfully advanced to become a Kunoichi but why does this job class have the 'Seduction Art' skill. I thought Kunoichi's were just the female counterpart of ninjas?

My master told me that my thoughts were shallow, but she said that is fine as we are shadows. The ones that are supposed to be visionaries are our lords. In other words, my idol is the visionary, and I am his shadow that will be his hidden blade.

The training to become a Kunoichi is very difficult, but the skills are great. The fact that I have a skill that is similar to pseudo teleportation is already something amazing. My master told me that a demon actually taught this technique to a kunoichi when she helped treat that demon's injuries.

It is not real teleportation like what demon do since they control space itself. The concept of this technique called Shunpo is detaching oneself from the bonds of the body and be one with nature for a moment. So far, my best distance is about twenty meters when I really focus but that is halved when I am in battle.

My master is great though as she could come and go like lightning that even those of the distinguished houses of the eastern continent fear her. It seems that she has been pursued for centuries and her mortal body could no longer handle her power despite having the qualifications of becoming a demigod.

It seems that my master wanted to live a mortal life and no longer extend her life. It seems that she wants her rest after helping the eastern continent behind the scenes. She wants to die as a human being that achieved much in her life than extending it and becoming corrupt with power like the others that she viewed throughout history.

"Remember my disciple, do not let our techniques deteriorate and pass it down to those who show promise like you. I have done my part for my beloved country and now it is up to you to do what you can for yours." My master stated as she died.

The Flash Goddess of the eastern continent died and lived a fulfilling life. The most beautiful thing that I have encountered in this game is the fact that she died with a smile while her body become butterflies that floated to the stars.

Do not worry master as I will not just protect the eastern continent but this whole world. The worst threat that this world has encountered is already knocking on its doors. The dark gods are gods from another dimension that seeks to destroy life.

Records of them are only available from the demon that one of the first kunoichi's helped. The demon died fighting off the dark god that attacked the eastern continent but left something in the care of the kunoichi's.

I do not know what to do with this broken tablet in my hand as I do not even see its information. I will protect it with everything I have like what my master did. She said that the demon gave it to them to safeguard which means that I now have a connection to my idol.

I am now ready to go to the outside world as the training took longer than expected. I still have a lot to go to inherit the 'Flash Goddess' but I will achieve it one day.

I did not expect that the eastern continent would change while I was away. Since where was there a city in the southern part of the eastern continent. When I asked the NPCs, they all said that the great Vermillion Bird has returned with the help of its friend.

The most shocking thing that I learned is that the friend they were talking about is none other than my idol. To think that he had left a big impact on the hearts of the eastern people. As expected of my idol, I should not delay myself and get back to shadowing him.

====

As I was doing my daily task of shadowing my idol, I saw that he encountered the dark gamers. They are always in games that are lucrative since they would do anything for money. I want to jump in and help my idol, but it seems that he has got this. He is not alone though as he was with his friend.

They have a real bond of friendship, and I am jelly. I should start recruiting people in my idol's fan club so that I am not the only one that is admiring his regal nature. But first, I will need to clean up the dark gamers that have arrived. I should leave some of them for my idol to defeat or else it would be strange.

After I killed a few of the dark gamers, there was a rumor in the forums about someone dubbed the crimson executioner. It seems that they only saw a red flash before they got killed. Scary! I should strengthen my guard on my idol so that he will not encounter this crimson executioner.

====

My idol managed to create a territory and I immediately jumped at the chance to visit it. I should say this to anyone that wants to become a demon. Kneeling and begging in front of a demon will not make them like you or let them become one of them.

I wanted to become a demon like my idol, but it seems that the race is still locked. If it is easily accessed, then demons would not be that powerful after all. I shall wait and observe my idol in the territory that he created with all his greatness.
