Chapter 201 The Two Meets

Erend returns from the Daily Quest to find Billy sleeping in the car. Erend just snorted and sighed.

He approached Billy and then knocked on the car window.

Billy immediately got up. His habit of being at war for five years made Billy - and anyone who joined the war - become a light sleeper.

Billy unlocked the car door and Erend jumped right in.

Billy yawned widely. "You done?"

"Yeah," Eren replied.

Then Bill glanced at the clock on the dashboard. "Fifteen minutes, huh? Much less than before," Billy said.

"Oh, it's only been fifteen minutes," Erend said. "It feels longer."

Maybe it was because the fight was quite annoying, so Erend thought that this fight was taking longer than it actually was.

Billy glanced at him for a moment. But he didn't say anything and just started the car again.

"Where are we going now?" Billy asked.

"Let's just go home," Erend replied.

So the official car walked to go back home.

As soon as they arrived at their own homes, Erend immediately went into his room.

Inside the cramped room that he had lived in since he was a child, Erend pondered while staring at the dull ceiling.

Erend's mind was now drifting to what he had done earlier. The form of the human he had killed reappeared in his eyes.

[ "Do you feel guilty for killing those wolves?" ]

When he was feeling confused and confused, Tut's voice echoed in his head.

'I don't know. Maybe.'

[ "Maybe you don't realize it. But you just saved a town from the threat of those hungry wolves." ]

Erend blinked his eyes quickly. 'What do you mean?'

[ "You didn't see it because you were busy fighting. But there is a town inhabited by humans located quite far from where you fought." ]

'So those Lycans intend to attack the city?'

["Not really. They were near where you emerged from the Portal. Sensing the energy from you, they finally came to you." ]

[ "If you don't show up, the wolf - Lycan pack will find the human city and attack them immediately." ]

Hearing Tut's explanation, Erend's feelings became lighter. It was as if the weight he had previously felt had been lifted easily.

Knowing that he was doing it to protect humans, Erend calmed down again.

'Phew, that's good.'

[ "Yes. Now you can do whatever you want in peace. Because Systema must have ordered you to do that for a good reason." ]

Erend felt a strange hunch when he heard that from Tut. But he immediately dismissed the hunch because he knew what Tut said was true.

He just needed to do what Systema told him without hesitation. After all, so far he has always done what Systema has given him and the results have always been good.

He had saved the lives of countless beings because Systema had told him.

Like when Aurdis needed his help.

When he remembered about Aurdis, Erend suddenly felt the urge to contact her and ask how she was.

But after everything that happened in the Elf palace the other day, Erend was sure that Aurdis wasn't feeling well.

'Should I contact her?' Erend thought to himself. 'Ah, it seems there is no need. I'll only bother her if I contact her now.'

Erend decided to go to Dungeon World after resting and meditating for three hours to recover his MP.

He couldn't just let this time go to waste by just lazing around at home.

At least he should get something.

By the way, Erend remembered that he still had business with that giant green bat monster in Dungeon World.

Erend told his mother that he wanted to sleep first and asked that nothing disturb him.

Then he asked Tut to open the door to Dungeon World.

[ "Finally you decided to go to Dungeon World again," ] Tut said.

'Yeah. I've been a bit busy lately so didn't have time to go there. It's time for me to go there again and get some Level up.'

["Very well, then." ]

The portal opens in front of Erend. He immediately jumped into it and entered Dungeon World.

Steve, who just got the power of Magic, now feels that he can rule the world.

Steve felt the lust and anger within him stir and burned more and more every second.

But Steve tried to hold it in as best he could because he couldn't mess around right now.

Steve is still in the building used for this secret government experiment.

He thought that his work had made him know all the secrets of this country more than others.

However, it turns out that there are still many secrets that he doesn't know.

For an obvious example, this building is located beneath a barn and farm isolated on the outskirts.

Steve didn't know that there was a secret facility in this remote environment near the forest.

Yet, here he is now. Become one of the subjects of an experiment whose success rate was only fifty percent.

Steve had no other choice because this was an order from the president himself.

After all, he has no place anymore after all his squad was slaughtered by the Elf and his two superiors were arrested.

Steve underestimated those three people too much.

He didn't expect that they could even prove their innocence.

​ That meant they had gotten the phone from a squad member and somehow unlocked it with the correct code. That way they won't destroy the data on the phone.

How did they know the right code to unlock the phone, was a question Steve had been asking constantly since the announcement made its way across the internet and across the nation.

Is any of his squad members still alive?

However, the possibility is very small, almost impossible.

Steve saw for himself how the Elves slaughtered trained squad members like stepping on insects.

He would also have died if he didn't jump quickly at that time.

There was a knock on his bedroom door and Steve heard a familiar voice.

Steve opened the door and saw a guest he didn't expect. But that doesn't mean he hates his arrival.

"Am I bothering you?" Conrad asked.

"No," Steve said. "Come in."
