2104 Rebuilding Her Army III

The rebuilding of the Black Fairy Mavros' army has started in full swing as she was finally able to convert half of the Grafts that the Elder Dryad Dorn safeguarded. The revived dryad or leshy would then take more unfortunate humans or humanoid monsters to become part of their army. The disappearance of people near the swamp was not a rare occurrence as this area was already sketchy.

As the Black Fairy Mavros was busy overseeing the revival of her army, she suddenly felt a jolt of energy that was incredibly familiar to her. She was able to sense the unknown stone that she got back then which made her rise in power. The familiar feeling was but a split second, but it was enough for her to know where the general direction was. She would have gone to get the unknown stone, but she was confident that she will be the only one that can unlock its power and use it.

"I made sure to place a curse on that stone to the point that I had to sacrifice most of my energy just to make sure it was bound to me. The curse should still be there as it will hurt anyone that tries to use it. It was such potent energy that cannot be seen here in this world and even those dark gods and distorted gods wanted to take it from my hands." The Black Fairy Mavros stated.

The reason she became weak when confronting her niece was due to the lost of her stone of power. It was directly tied to her life which meant she lost half of her strength the moment it went to another place. Still, she heard of the whispers that the stone was releasing as if it was a living object. This was good news for her as she definitely wanted to search for her stone of power as it will hasten her complete revival.

"You! Go in this general area and search for my stone of power." The Black Fairy Mavros stated as she injected one of the dryads with the image of the stone and what its aura was. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The dryad immediately went off to the direction she was pointed at as the area she was given was incredibly far from their current location. It might take the dryad at least five days of travel and that is without stopping. Since the corrupted dryads could just devour other living beings to become healthy, the speed at which they can move is extremely fast.

"Was it all my imagination or did I also feel another fainter source of my stone? Was it destroyed during my battle back then? No matter. It will fall into my hands eventually and I only need to wait." The Black Fairy Mavros stated as she believed that everything would fall into her hands as if she was the chosen being of the heavens.

Adrian was led to an actual kingdom by the energy signature of the shard that he was given. This kingdom was none other than a kingdom ruled by a player. It is being run by one of the top guilds in the ranking when it comes to monster subjugation. It is also a top guild that is very antagonistic of the alliance of guilds that Adrian is a part of.

"Should I go to a brothel then?" Adrian thought as he tried getting inside one, but his face got slammed.

[You cannot enter this place as the age restriction for your country is 21 years old.]

"I forgot about that." Adrian thought as he immediately bolted away from the place as he is embarrassed. A lot of people were able to see what happened to him as some even laughed. A lot of people saw him getting face slammed by the door. He wanted to become inconspicuous, but he suddenly got attention due to his accident.

In the end, Adrian had to settle for the bar as this place was not age restricted, but the drinks were. He could only order sparkling juices instead of real alcoholic drinks due to the restriction. Fortunately, the bartender does not discriminate as long as you pay him for the information. He was able to get the information he needed in getting a ticket for the auction.

Just as he heard from the alley, the auction is indeed about selling the items from the previous monarch. A lot of the items for auction were rare trinkets that were cursed objects or were regarded as cursed objects. Adrian knew why these items were for sale as not a lot of players can handle cursed items. More of the cursed item users were powerful NPCs that do not mix well with society.

"Creepysoo and Hexy would have liked to come with me for this." Adrian thought as he waited for night to fall.

Adrian was actually lucky that he managed to get into the auction in time. If he did not, then he might have to steal the unknown stone of power. What he finds troublesome is if it already fell onto the hands of other people. The unknown stone of power might be in the hands of one of the people that attends the auction. Adrian tried to extend his senses, but he could not feel the energy as if it was blocked.

"Let us hope that nothing bad will happen and all the items will be auctioned off properly." Adrian thought but he should not have jinxed it as there were a lot of people there that could make anyone run away.

Edited. Apologies for the late edit.
