Chapter 39 Butterfly Effect?

Rio's dorm room

'I wonder what she is doing here?' (Rio)

'W-why is he staring at me like that?' (Lia)

"W-would you stop staring like that!? you perv!" (Lia)

"Well, it's your own fault, you have such a cute face, i just can't help but stare~" (Rio)

"I-i... Y-you are teasing me again! aren't you!?" (Lia)

"Oh! You found out! Indeed, you have grown up, even though you used to be so naive back then, sigh~" (Rio)

"Stop talking like an old man! And I am not naive!" (Lia)

"Heh, you are so naive~, you even came inside a boy's room all alone, don't you think something might happen to you?" (Rio)

A playful smile spread over Rio's face, he totally looked like a perv.

Lia had a sudden urge to beat this bastard into pulp, but she held back her hand, while clenching her fists.

'maybe I should stop teasing her now, sigh~' (Rio)

"Okay, okay, calm down... So, why are here today?" (Rio)

"Y-you better not mess around next time, i-i will forgive you for now, I am here to invite you... Father wants to meet you..." (Lia)

'hmm, Lia's father? There wasn't much written about him in the novel, the only thing I know about him is how he died' (Rio)

In the novel, Lia didn't talk about her father ever so there's not much known about her father, then why is she... Could it be also one of the butterfly effects I caused?

"Why do he wants to meet me? Is he going to fix our marriage date?" (Rio)

"I don't know why he wants to meet you-" (Lia)

"W-what are you saying!? You idiot! W-who would marry someone like you!?" (Lia)

"Eh, you don't want to?" (Rio)

"Th-thats not it....i-i..." (Lia)

"M-More importantly! Would you come with me? I-if you don't want to, th-then it okay too." (Lia)

'she changed the topic' (Rio)

"Of course, I am coming. There's no way I will refuse to meet him" (Rio)

"O-okay then, meet me outside the academy at 8 am tomorrow, now I should get going!" (Lia)

"Oh, okay" (Rio)

Rio looked at Lia who seemed to be in a hurry to run away from here.

'Maybe i teased her a bit too much today.' (Rio)

After Lia left, a sudden thought came to Rio's mind:

'Lia's father, well known for his heavy sword and ridiculous strength' (Rio)

In the novel his past wasn't described only thing was said that he is currently a S-ranker and a guild master. But one thing was described in the novel very clearly:

'He died in his own daughter's hands, which means he was killed by Lia.' (Rio)

Dungeon- Lizard's Nest, Entrance gate

A young boy with Brown hair and pupils is currently standing in front of this gate. Beside him is a girl with orange hair and pupils with reddish tint to them.

The girl have an excited expression on her face. The same goes for the boy too.

Anyone can tell that they are novice by looking at their expression, afterall an experienced person will not look at a place filled with monster with a smile on their face exept if they have some problem in their head.

With smiles on their face both of them entered this dungeon.

This is a low rank dungeon and generally C-rankers are eligible to enter this place. Anyone below it is not allowed to enter this place.

After they entered the dungeon both of them brought out their staff to be ready to cast spells at any moment.

They immediately encountered a lizard monster, the monster didn't even gave them time to think and directly attacked them.

"Be careful, Kira. Although it's slow, it's attack is strong."

"Yes, Fade." (Kira)

[Fire-Magic: Fire arrow rain!]

The attack successfully landed but it only caused some little damage, to the monster.

It's not that the spell is weak, it's just that this type of monster is more resistant to fire type attacks.

"Fade use water magic on it, it's resistent to fire magic" (Kira)

"Yeah!" (Fade)

After that Fade immediately attacked with water magic.

[Water-Magic: water blade!]

This time the monster got injured fatally and died after Fade casted a small water arrow spell, in a few seconds.

[+1500 Exp!]

'Good, although these monsters are strong they really gave a good amount of Exp to me.' (Fade)

"Let's get going! We still have a long way ahead!" (Fade)

After three hours:

"Haa...huff...haa...we finally killed that boss monster. It was really a difficult fight. Wasn't it?" (Fade)

"Yeah, it was rather tough, but luckily we got a monster core from it!" (Kira)

"Yeah we are rather lucky this time" (Fade)

"But what about that hidden area that monster opened when we were fighting? Should we go inside and check it out?" (Kira)

"Yeah! we should go there! Maybe we will find out something good there!" (Fade)

"Okay!" (Kira)

After deciding both of them immediately got inside and after walking for a while they found a room.

Looking around they found broken pieces of something like a container.

There wasn't anything else of their interest. Fade suddenly felt strange after he didn't got anything here. This was the first time in a very long while he suffered with bad luck.

'Actually this feeling is rather different, it feels as if I have lost something that should have been mine, strange.'

"There's nothing here, let's go" (Fade)

"Y-yeah" (Kira)

Fade's mood got worse suddenly he didn't knew why but he fel rahe.

[Ding! It is detected host's Fate has been affected due to an anomaly!]

[Would you like to find the reason behind it?]

[Will cost 5K Exp!]

[Yes/No]

'Yes' (Fade)

[Ding! Calculating the reason and probability using threads of fate!]

[Error.... Retrying.... Error....]

[The Fate related to you have been altered due to some anomaly, please be cautious host.]

'what?' (Fade)

"Hey, Fade did something happen? you look depressed" (Kira)

"Nothing, let's leave this place." (Fade)

Outside academy

A luxury car can be seen standing there, seemingly waiting for someone.

After a while a young boy with black hair and black pupils came, wearing casual clothes.

Rio looked at the luxury car and then at the butler standing beside it for a whileand then decided to walk towards it.

Noticing him coming near the butler looked towards him and then opened the gate of the car fully show-casing his professional training in mannerisms.

"Mr. Rio, please get inside. I will escort you to the white mansion." (Butler)

"Yeah, okay" (Rio)

After Rio got inside the butler slowly closed the door making sure that no noise is created again displaying his ridiculous training on how a butler should be.

' Not to mention, this guy is giving off the aura of an A-rank, even the driver seems to be a peak A ranker. If not for the fact that I know I was invited, i would have thought I am being kidnapped.' (Rio)

While the car moved steadily without even a single bump or uncomfortable move, Rio's mind drifted off to somewhere else.

[An unknown energy has tried to detect your origins.]

[Skill 'True Immunity' has been triggered...]

[Blocked the interference successfully!]

'what is happening suddenly? Is this also a butterfly effect. Atleast it failed to detect me, this skill true immunity is really a gem. Sigh~' (Rio)

Just as Rio was busy admiring his skill. The car also came to stop.

"We are here" (Butler)

Rio opened the door and walked out of the car. A huge mansion appeared in his vision. Although he already has guessued that the mainsion will definitely be very big.

But seeing it in person is really a different thing.

After looking for a second Rio followed behind the butler who lead the way inside. The gardens all around are very beautiful and several rare flowers can be seen in these gardens.

The scenery around the mansion is also very beautiful. Looking very different from outside and inside.

Authors note: my pc snapped today so I wasn't able to update and got late, and the chapter length is also a bit small.

Well here's today's question.

What do you think will fade be able to determine who is the anomaly stealing and destroying his luck or he will continue to suffer:

1. Yes

2. No

Also don't forget to use those power stones guys. We need to rank it this month. Let's go we can do it.

Also there's the win- win event going on. It seems that if we win in it then the cost of purchasing chapters will reduce considerably for a while month so I am looking forward to your support guys.

In return I will be updating a new chapter everyday. So you guys won't get bored. Although it may take a bit of time for my pc to be repaired and the updates may be slow but I will try my best to not miss the days.
