Chapter 6 - 006: Why The Journey To The Mansion Is Taking So Much Time?

Inside the carriage, Arthur closes his eyes not because he is sleeping or even suffering from a sick motion but because he takes a look at the reward given by the system after he successfully comes out of the trial dimension. Previously he didn't have a chance to check it because of the pain that he suffered and after that, he meets with Emilia and Puck, so he checks it now when he has time.

He got a lot of system point from the monster that got killed by the lightning and blizzard, even if it's not his intention but the fact all of that monster killed by him indirectly still make him qualified to get a reward.

A total of 19.462 system point and add with his remaining system point after bought and upgraded the modifications he has 14.323 system point. Although he received more than nineteen thousand system point it didn't mean he killed that much monster because there is a large possibility for new monsters is killed in the process and rewarding him with different amounts of system point.

^Congratulations, Host receive a title of 'Monster Hunter (Beginner)' after killing more than ten thousand monsters ^

Title: Monster Hunter (Beginner)

●Monster Hunter (Beginner) : +10% damage to monster race

Arthur is very happy with how much system point he has but remembering the pain he feels it still make him shudder a little.

'System can I have Senbonzakura?' This is one of his favorite abilities and something that he thinks as a very cool ability. Well, although he didn't like the one who uses it but the ability is more important than the wielder. 'Give me a solution at the cheapest price!'

^Calculating... The host just need to buy seed of divine telekinesis for a hundred points and buy Senbonzakura ability for five hundred points^

The seed of Divine Telekinesis: A seed that will grow inside the Host soul. It can manipulate one hundred objects.

●100 system point

Senbonzakura (Ability): A power own by shinigami, this power is very destructive not just to physical form but also to soul form. Turn a sword into countless sword shards in the shape of cherry blossoms petals

●500 system point

'How about the side effects?' Arthur didn't want to experience that kind of pain again, even if he has several dangerous experiences when he is in trial dimension but it doesn't mean he can gladly accept something that painful

^Buying an Ability will not give Host any painful side effects even if Host buy it directly to level 10^

^To avoid painful side effects it was recommended for Host buying the Seed of Divine Telekinesis and upgrade it with intervals of an hour for each upgrade^

'Give me Level five Senbonzakura and level one Seed of Divine Telekinesis, upgrade the seed automatically after it safe until level five'

With this round of shopping Arthur's system point decrease to around three thousand system point, after confirming there are another ability and modifications in his status panel without feeling the pain, Arthur fell relief and let out a sigh.

"Are you sick?"

Arthur's stop playing with his system when he heard Emilia's question, if it was in xianxia world maybe Arthur will think it was an insult but when the one who asks this is Emilia then it was because she is worried about him

"No, I just remember some unpleasant things... how long until we arrive at your house?" Arthur shifts the conversation because he didn't want to talk about it

"My supporters house" Emilia smile and correcting Arthur's mistake "Just another half an hour I think?"

"So you didn't know it well..."

"I'm sorry but I'm not the driver so I didn't know the exact time we need!" Emilia pout a little before she looks at Arthur again "Why you are more interested in the duration of our journey rather than about my origin and why I have a supporter?"

"Then why not you tell me about it?"

"Why I need to tell you?"

"Because I'm asking you, and my kind lady will answer it, right?"

Emilia glares at Arthur for a while before letting out a sigh and starts telling the story about herself

"So, in other words, you're a future queen right?"

"Basically, yes"

"Then where is your guard?"

"Puck is enough for me"

"Then why there is no one who helps you and they seem like avoiding you?"

"Because... I was a silver hair half-elf" Emilia hesitates a little before she answers Arthur's question and after that, she looked down

In this world there is a taboo existence that illustrated as a silver hair half-elf, Arthur knows it too and he intentionally talks about it because he thinks of she wants to be a queen than she needs to stop looking at herself as the split image of that witch.

"And then what's wrong with that?" At first Arthur want to use the same phrase that Subaru says to Emilia but he change it at the last moment "I meet with an interesting person by chance, he calls himself as 'Elf Lover' and say if elf is the most beautiful thing in the world no matter it was pure blood elf or even half-elf, he loves them all" Arthur choose to use one of his encounter with a person from his previous world as example

"That's sound like a pervert..." Emilia change her sit position and create a little space between her and Arthur

"Well, what I want to say is not about that pervert but I just want you to know there is no way we can make everyone please, so forget that haters because somebody loves you"

"Somebody? Who?"

"That pervert"

"I would rather have a lot of haters" although she said it like that, the gloomy face she had before is gone now

"Arthur"

"Yes? You want to know that pervert address?"

"It's not that, are you not afraid?" Emilia ask with a serious face

"Afraid of what?"

"If you became my knight, then you'd be target by people that hate me"

"Like the Witch Cult?"

Emilia shudder a little when she heard Arthur's question.

The Witch-Cult is an organization that existed for over 400 years since the times when the witches were active. They are evil enough that knights are ordered to annihilate them immediately should they appear. Followers are elusive, their means of hiding unknown, allowing them to survive until the current time. Their purpose is rumored to be the resurrection of the Witch of Envy.

"Yes... like them"

"Are you not afraid?" Arthur throwback her question

"I... I just afraid they will hurt the people around me. I have a dream to create a kingdom where everyone has the same standing point without discrimination. So I will not stop to pursue my dream because of them"

"Well we're in the same camp now, so you need to train how to say 'help me' from now on"

"Are you sure? You will not regret it in the future?"

"Regret..." Arthur at loss and look at the outside of the carriage, he lost in his own mind before he let out a sigh and answer her firmly "There is something that makes me regretting it until now, but joining your camp is not one of that"

Emilia looked at her own feet with a little smile on her face and with her bell-like voice she said "Thank you"
