Chapter 32 A Woman In Her Underwear

Nathan and Edna sat by the bonfire near their caravan.

Muramoto deliberately moved a distance away to give them some privacy.

Nathan was still staring in shock at the news he was reading on the tablet screen.

"The CEHA registration deadline has been pushed forward to September 10, 2086?" He raised his face to look at Luna. "How much time do I have, Luna?"

"Less than two weeks, Master. To be precise, only 12 days."

"And how much effort do I need compared to level 1 to 30?"

"Roughly calculated, you need to kill twice as many monsters as level 1 to 30. At your level."

Nathan took a deep breath as he processed Luna's explanation.

Edna stared at him in silence. She only spoke when she saw he had finished chatting with Luna. "Young master, is there anything I can help you with?"

Nathan turned to Edna, but he was still silent.

"Is there any other reason you're so adamant about entering CEHA? I mean, to get a license to hunt in Yunatea, you can also enter other academies with lower requirements than CEHA."

Nathan took a quick breath and decided to tell her. "Edna, I haven't really told you my real reason yet. But there is something I have to pursue. The reason was that I forced myself to enter CEHA."

Edna tilted her head, waiting for him to continue his story.

"Actually, I got a vision regarding my parents' true death."

Edna slowly straightened herself as she prepared to listen to Nathan speak about an important topic.

"There is a man who was part of my father's party, Nicolas Gilson. He is the one who killed them."

"Mr. Nicolas?"

"Do you know him?"

Edna nodded. "Yes, young master. I've met each member of Master Devon's party."

"What do you think about Nicolas Gilson killing my parents?"

"Hmmm…" Edna was silent for a moment, then continued. "Actually, I don't really understand each of their personalities. Master Devon saved me when I was little. And two years after that, the three party members separated. Ms. Amber, Mr. Ben, and Mr. Nicolas."

Nathan was immediately interested in the story told by Edna. "I have never heard about this before. Who are Amber and Ben?"

"Yes, young master. Ms. Amber is the grim reaper as written in the description on the sword of Disidia, and Mr. Ben is the old pervert."

"Ah." Nathan nodded slowly. "Information about them is quite important to me, considering that I still need to gain their seal of approval to unlock the greatest potential of the Sword of Dissidia. Can you tell me more about them?"

"I have not heard anything about Ms. Amber and Mr. Ben after the separation. In fact, I was quite surprised when I found out they were still alive." Edna continued.

"And they saved you when you were little, Edna?"

"Yes, young master."

"Does that mean you are still quite young?"

Edna chuckled. She covered her lips with the back of her palm. "I'm still around 24 years old."

"I see. I have learned something new about you, Edna." He smiled.

"And then," Edna continued. "Do you mean to take your revenge on Mr. Nicolas, young master?"

Nathan was silent at Edna's question. He stared at the flames for a moment, then spoke again when he felt he had found the answer. "It never crossed my mind to do anything with someone's life. That includes killing someone for what they did to my parents. However…" Nathan lifted his head, his eyes looking really serious. "I probably won't be able to hold myself back if I meet that person one day."

Nathan recalled what he saw in his mother's memory. His hands trembled for a moment at the thought of Nicolas' face, which was still very clear in his mind.

Nicolas' cynical smile was very clear to him. It was seared into his mind like a hot brand upon a newborn's skin.

"I saw it firsthand when Nicolas came to my parents and brought a demon with him."

"A demon?" Edna answered slowly.

Nathan nodded. "Yes, he summoned the Legendary Man-Eater."

Edna looked surprised to hear his words. "Legendary Man-Eater?"

Nathan nodded. "Have you ever heard of that demon's name, Edna?"

"The Legendary Man-Eater is a demon under the control of the Queen of High-Elf, the holder of the Pride. If she was the one behind the deaths of Master Devon and Lady Diana..." Edna was silent for a moment. "That is possible because Queen Avaris has the ability to change reality. The Legendary Man-Eater could come to this world at his maximum level. In such a situation, it would certainly be very difficult for Master Devon to deal with it."

Nathan nodded. "That was what really happened to them."

Edna looked at him slowly as a few drops of tears fell from her eyes. "To think that what you're up against is even bigger than what we found in the Crescent Moon Dimension. About the god slayer and the holder of the sin."

Nathan looked at Edna as she started to sob quietly. "Why are you crying about my situation when I am not? ?" He then smiled.

Nathan continued when he saw Edna slowly wipe away her tears. "That's it. Now I only have 12 days to reach level 50. I can't delay this thing, not even by a bit. I must immediately get a license to hunt in Yunatea to make myself strong in the shortest possible time."

Edna nodded slowly. "Do you need my help hunting high-level monsters on the West Continent, young master?"

"West Continent?"

"Yes, most of the West Continent is untouched by humans. And there's a bit of human territory there. Their activity is to ensure that no major threat develops that could lead to an invasion of the East Continent."

"Is that possible in the little time I have?"

Edna was silent for a moment after hearing Nathan's question. After some time, she spoke again. "I'm not sure either, but if you can kill monsters over level 50, the experience you get will be even greater."

"Is there a special permit I must have to hunt in that place, Edna?"

Edna nodded slowly. "There is an area that is intended for humans, an area that is classified as safe. And, a minimum of 5 members in 1 party, with an average of level 80."

Nathan clenched his fists, and he tried to think hard. "If Muramoto and Marco are at level 80. I will need two more people at level 100 to accompany me. And that is if I am level 40."

Edna nodded slowly. "The residents of Yunatea like me would not be included in the party count. However, I can still accompany you on the expedition."

"I think it's worth the attempt. We will go to the West Continent using the intercontinental portal. I will try to reach level 40 as soon as possible, and I need your help to take care of the rest. Including finding two extra people for my party members."

Edna smiled at Nathan's words, "Yes, young master. I will do the best I can."

The two of them then looked into the distance when two men walked up to them. Muramoto and another young man they knew as Marco approached.

"Hi." Marco, the blonde-haired man who had previously come with Muramoto and Mary, greeted. "Looks like I came at the right time. You have reached level 30 in such a short time."

Nathan then stood facing the two of them. "I'm going to rest for a while." He showed his status on his hunter device. "Tomorrow, early in the morning, we will immediately carry out our dungeon expedition." He continued with a smile.

An adult man with blond hair held a glass of wine. He laid down on a luxurious bed. There were 5 women on his right and left.

The man laughed loudly as he squeezed the buttocks of the woman beside him. "Haha… You're not bad either, bitch." He patted the woman's ass on his right side.

He was the lord of the City of Southlake. He was the most influential person and owned most of the land and facilities in that small town.

"Ah, Master Bas." The long blonde-haired woman came closer and patted the man's chest. "I'm flattered by your compliment."

From the other end of the room, there was a knock on the door.

"Master Bas, may I come in? I have important news to share."

Bastien, the man, turned towards the door. His face showed a hint of annoyance. "Open the door."

"Yes, Master Bas." A woman got off the bed in only her underwear, walking towards the door.

A young man in a black suit walked in and lowered his head. "I'm sorry, Master Bas. I have something very important to tell you."

"You're interrupting my fun time. I hope you don't disappoint me."

"Yes, Master."

The young man walked over to the large screen on the wall.

On the screen then appears a short video at night. A blonde-haired young man was standing in front of another man who was thrown into a car.

The video continued until a little wolf appeared near them.

"Hmmm…" Bastien responded. He pushed the woman beside him off and immediately got off the bed.

The man walked over to the young man. "Rewind this video."

"Okay, Master." The young man did what the man asked.

"Stop." He responded and brought his face closer.

A girl with silver hair stood between two young men on the screen.

"I like this girl." Bastien looked on with a faint smile.

"Bring her to me."

"Eh, Master." The young man continued. "Actually, there was something more precious than that girl."

Bastien looked at the young man. "What is more precious in this world than a pretty girl?"

"Forgive me." The young man replayed the video and stopped when a little wolf appeared on the screen.

"Spirit beast. This is the spirit beast you have always wanted, Master."
