80.6% Fantasy System / Chapter 238: Golden Beach

Chapter 238: Golden Beach

Ed's destination was the south-eastern continent. At least, that's the last place his grandfather contacted them from. He thought about ways to find him and settled for the simplest one. Sweep through the whole continent until a green dot is found.

Since every second was precious, Ed decided not to travel by ship. Instead, he activated his dimension and Berserk skill. His plan? To fly the whole distance between the continents. This was only possible for him, as he used his dimension to half the time needed, while his Berserk skill allowed him to have more leeway with his KI.

Ed left Emilia and Bella with his companions to sightsee. He noticed how Bella was fidgety and nervous and guessed how it must be related to meeting her grandfather for the first time. He knew it, as he was also feeling nervous. The last time the prince met his grandfather was ten years ago, and even those memories seemed hazy.

His grandfather who lived for over 100 years and helped put an end to Blood sect. How would he react to Ed and Bella? Will he notice anything about Ed? All sorts of questions popped into Ed's head as he flew over the sea. The smell of salt invaded his nose as a golden aura surrounded his body.

'System, what will be my chances of beating someone at Immortal Establishment level 10?' in order to pass the time, Ed checked in with the system. He thought about the impending war and compared it with the Bloody war. He thought about how he only won thanks to acquiring Parallel thinking prior to that war. If he wasn't so lucky every time, how would he keep winning?

[70% chance when fighting a normal cultivator. However, if you're fighting someone with Harald's innate talent, less than 5%.] Ed fell into deep thinking after listening to the system.

'Anyway around it,' Ed wanted to be absolutely sure of his next choices.

[Unless something unnatural happens to you, yet, no way.]

'What do you mean, 'unnatural'?'

[Unless you activate some unknown power that I don't know you have. Aka, some mc power.]

Ed looked ahead of him with a 'are you serious face'. 'What mc power…', he thought to himself.

'So, what are my choices? I doubt I can raise my cultivation all that higher, and I can only fight on so many levels higher than me…'

[You've been gaining a steady amount of Gacha tickets. You have 70 of them right now, so that should count for something. But, since you plan on getting more, you only have two options, which are related to each other.]

'I'm listening.' Ed decreased his flight speed and focused on the advice of his system.

[First, kill a Mythical grade, or higher, monster and make it your avatar. Second, get a Mythical grade monster, skill, or item. From now on, I reckon things won't be as simple as they had been. You've been lucky when fighting Alexander and Harald since they had no Avatar souls. If they did, you wouldn't have won.]

Ed smiled, as his system had advised him with the same thing that he was thinking. Indeed, had he fought Alexander or Harald, and they summoned an Avatar to fight with them, he would have lost.

'I see…Then, things will be rather simple from now on. Since the second advice was my goal from before, it'll take a while. But the first is rather simple…or not. Where do you think I can find a Mythical grade monster? I've never encountered one. Not even the two towers had any of them.'

[…That's something related to the history of this world, and it's related to that second tower. For now, you don't need to know. But, even though there might not be Supreme grade monsters, skills, or items in this world, Mythical grade ones should still exist. You just need to look hard enough. You should ask your grandfather, or the person existing in Ryuu kingdom for advice.]

"Well…As long as my lack of knowledge doesn't put us under danger, I'm okay with you keeping quiet. But, make sure to tell me if you notice something wrong happening." Ed spoke out loud as if trying to get his idea across no matter what.

[Sure. Our fates are related, so I'm not going to do something as stupid as to abandon you anyway…]

Ed wanted to ask what the system meant, but he had a feeling that he wouldn't get an answer. Of course, he knew that as long as he survived, everything would unfold in front of him. All he needed was patience…and strength.

The trip to the continent went by slowly, and painfully boring for Ed. However, he managed to talk a lot with his system. That way, he gained insight and his future plans appeared to be much clearer. After two and half days, Ed finally caught sight of land. It was a beach, and it was uninhabited. Ed undid his dimension, so he could scout the area under his Zero Sign skill.

"This should be a nice place for a small vacation…" Ed thought out loud. He realized that the concept of a beach vacation didn't exist in this world, but he thought that it wouldn't be a bad idea to start it. He sat down at the golden sand, recovering his KI through meditation. After another half a day passed by, Ed felt rejuvenated enough to travel two trips between the continents using his Space magic.

He left a wooden sigil behind and teleported back to where his companions were. It was daytime, so he found them strolling around in a mountain.

"Welcome back." Each and every one of them greeted him as they noticed his presence.

"We'll take this day off and play around at the beach. We'll have one week and a half to find my grandfather, and for me to power-up. Then, we'll return to Avalon."

Ed notified them as he teleported them to the golden beach. There, they sat down as they basked in the glory of the sun.


CREATORS' THOUGHTS

Hello everyone! I wrote this chapter at a late time, and it's now 1 am. If you notice some mistakes please notify me! Enjoy.

Chapter 239: Beach Day

"By the way, what did you mean by 'play in the beach'? Do you want to hunt some sea monsters?" Emilia asked Ed all innocently. This caused him to facepalm, as he realized the disparity between the common sense of this world, and his old one.

"No!" Ed's sudden outburst caused everyone around him to feel surprised. How long had it been since they saw Ed showcase some emotion? Quite a long time.

"When you see a beach, you don't think of hunting!" Ed said as he raised his hands up in the air. Somehow, Suika and Bella were at his sides, copying his strange movements.

"When you see a beach, you think of sand castles! Swimsuits! Sunbathing! And most importantly…Swimming!" Ed ended up on his knees, with his neck bent looking at the sky. He looked horrifying, but Suika and Bella looked rather cute.

"Swimsuits?" the others reacted in a way Ed didn't hope to hear but knew he couldn't avoid hearing. So, he ended up explaining the concept to them.

'My dear system…can I create swimsuits made of cloth?' Ed remembered how the system had informed him of the fact that he couldn't create anything made out of live creatures.

[You misunderstood me. You can't create anything 'directly' related to a live creature. For example, you can't create a steak of meat. But, you can create things made out of wood just normally. So, clothes aren't an issue.]

'As expected of my system!' Ed praised the system in his mind as he activated his dimension. In order to guarantee a pest-free experience, Ed made sure that they were the only ones enjoying the beach that day.

He focused hard on his memory, trying to recall some swimsuits for him and his companions.

"The men will go over there; the ladies will go over there!" Ed commanded as he pointed at two wooden shacks in the distance. "There, you will find many swimsuits, choose the one you like the best and come outside to enjoy!"

Ed's companions followed after his words, humoring him as he acted weird today. They noticed how he was excited today, out of the normal, and chose not to bum him out by questions. Still, they each had their doubts.

"Hmm?" Ed used his equipment chance ability to quickly change into some shorts that he created but then noticed Raikou coming out of the shack. Apparently, Ed forgot to mention how the swimsuits were for humanoids only.

"Grr…" Raikou growled as he passed next to Ed. Ed avoided matching his eyesight and waited for the others to come out while Raikou enjoyed the warm sands.

Garu came out in his human form. His fur got in the way, so he transformed to make it easier so himself. Most of the men came out before the ladies.

Ed almost burst out laughing in tears once he noticed Sieg wearing shorts and a sleeveless T-shirt. He was very thin, so it seemed baggy on him. Agumon didn't need to wear anything so he simply hung around the others. Then, soon enough, the ladies started to come out.

Bella was wearing a one-piece dress, same as Suika. The two came out at the same time and started running towards Ed. Then, from behind them, Emilia and Merry walked (and flew) towards them.

Emilia wore a three-piece swimsuit, with a long skirt, while Merry wore the same but with some long shorts.

'Four angels in a swimsuit…if only I could create a camera that would last forever…' Ed thought to himself as he wore a peaceful expression on his face. 'She didn't read my mind did she…?' Ed noticed how Merry was smiling while looking at him and felt cold sweat dropping down his back.

Ed also noticed how Emilia's face was as red as a tomato. Apparently, she wasn't used to such clothes.

'A blushing maiden, hehehe…' Ed thought to himself again before realizing, once again, that Merry was capable of reading his mind.

"Now then, let's swim!" Ed shouted as he pointed at the ocean behind them.

"Let's swim!"

"Let's swim, Suu!"

Bella and Suika followed after him as he rushed to the water.

Merry also started to fly faster, getting to the water much quicker than the others. Then, Agumon, Gobuta, and Goburou rushed in as well. Merry, Suika, and Bella didn't know how to swim, so Ed took the time to teach them. Obviously, it didn't take them long before they were rushing around.

Emilia got in a couple of time, enjoying the feeling of being submerged under water.

"Uncle Raikou! Come with us!" Bella got out of the water and surprised Raikou by jumping on him. Her wet cold body didn't bother him, as his fur was thick. He wanted to decline, but as he met her eyes, his will collapsed into nothing.

Mehen, Garu, and Sieg remained outside, enjoying some fruit drinks that Ed gave them. Inside the ocean, someone (Gobuta) had the bright idea of starting a water fight. What do you get when many Immortal Establishment cultivators fight using water?

A disaster. You get a man-monster-humanoid made disaster.

After tiring themselves out…After playing long enough, Ed decided to take a shower, as the sun was starting to set. He created some shower rooms for everyone, and after cleaning up, he started to prepare for a barbecue. He had more than enough ingredients inside his Inventory, and he wasn't going to run out anytime soon. So, he decided to indulge in a feast.

"Let me help you." Emilia came back from the shower, her hair still carrying droplets of water, which shone under the dying sun's light. She prepared the meat while Ed started a fire. He was using a large grill, which he created using his ability. No ordinary grill could satisfy his companions, and he knew it very well.

Ed ended up cooking until midnight, before setting up camp to sleep. His only objective of doing this was to relieve everyone of their stress. He knew that it would build up once again, and he wouldn't have the time to do such a thing.
