Chapter 86: Chapter 86: Everybody has a story

Two days passed in the blink of an eye, Arthur and Elias continued to explore the second level, without finding the entrance to the next level and due to time the other hunters began to enter this level, causing another war between humanity and the monsters, but unlike the other level, the monsters were stronger, due to so many flying objects and that the human hunters faced the monsters recklessly, the latter gradually lost the fear that Akagi and Arthur had been emitting in the latter anus.

The humans were weak and Wunder was unable to compete against Akagi, so they lost each battle against the monsters, likewise, the monsters began to fly again, since none of these humans had the power to damage them, causing a massacre in the hunters. humans...

(Why can't we find the next door?)

Elias's expression is dark, the more time he spent in this Secret Kingdom, the more dangerous it is for him, the number of people from the government and large families waiting in the real world would get bigger and bigger.

However no matter how much he searched, he could not find the trail of the gate, although this jungle was extensive with a size of about a small country, the amount of land was immense and the exploration required time ...

Every day there were more hunters and Elias's patience was running out.

"..."

Arthur said nothing and watched in silence, during the time he spent with Elias, he already understood his character and also the anxiety that he felt before disappeared.

"Let's finish the day, we'll continue tomorrow .."

"Good..."

With the false sky of the Secret Realm losing its light, Elias called it a day, they had been flying all day and their magic power was insufficient to continue, they needed to rest.

Unfortunately, the next day passed and nothing had changed, the entrance to the next level still did not appear, this only made Elias's expression sink even more...

Day four was the same, even without progress and to maximize his progress, Elias began to pay attention to the hunters, he no longer cared if someone else found the entrance to the next level, the only thing that mattered now is to go through the next level, unfortunately, the Hunters were too busy hiding from monsters, to search for the next door.

"Something is wrong! There must be a clue somewhere! ..."

After finishing the search on day eight, Elias and Arthur returned to their hiding place, as they needed to rest from the monsters, their hiding place was underground, an artificially created tunnel, for exclusive use.

At this moment the sky was off and Elias was reading intensely the holographic screen, where a file with the geography and writings of the last human explorer.

According to this legend, the entrance to the next level was deep in the forest, the location was unknown but it was not a Pyramid, on the contrary, it was a statue of a bird-type monster from this Secret Kingdom and quite possibly the statue was in the nest of this bird, but until now there were no traces of bird-type monsters, not to mention the statue ...

The days passed and this was wearing out Elias' patience, he even thought that he had misread the historical record and began to seriously study it in the hope of finding a clue.

Arthur didn't say anything, he was cooking something light, using meat from a turtle, although fire can attract monsters and human hunters, Arthur doesn't care, he just sealed the tunnel entrance and applied optical cloaking, and began to purify the air. to avoid the aftermath of smoke.

* Gulp.

"It looks delicious, as expected from my husband ..."

"It's not for you..."

Akagi's saliva almost spilled, at the moment she was in his chibi version and her eyes lit up when she saw and smelt the turtle soup, during these four years he had gotten used to eating the food prepared by Arthur, so she wanted to materialize and eat, unfortunately, Arthur looked at her once and it was enough for Akagi to cringe depressed ...

With Elias next to them, Akagi was forbidden to show herself, he worked hard to gain Elia's trust and if Akagi shows up it was a mistake ...

"Mister Elias you must eat, you must take a break ..."

Pouring a cup, Elias massaged his tired forehead and thanked ...

"Thanks, Liam ..."

Elias knew that Arthur was right and wanted to skip dinner, however seeing how hard Arthur had worked making it and also the delicious smell that this soup emitted, Elias's stomach began to growl ...

"Hm? Not bad, you have a talent for this ..."

Elias throughout his life has tasted many delicacies from different professional and renowned chefs, so his palate was quite demanding, a homemade meal rarely raises his appetite, however, Arthur's soup was above average, it could not be compared With the professional chefs, however, it was pretty good to be prepared by a 12-year-old.

This made curiosity about Arthur's background increase, not a single spoiled child from a super family would learn to cook, especially someone like Arthur, whoever could prepare a decent meal was already a miracle ...

"Thank you, you can eat all you want ..."

Arthur was aware of his abilities, they weren't good, but they weren't bad either, unfortunately, the chickens became extinct so their food wasn't that tasty ...

"Mister Elias, will we continue exploring?"

8 days had passed and Arthur was worried that the Secret Kingdom would close its borders, but at Arthur's question, Elias fell silent ...

He was aware of the dangers and knew that if it weren't for Arthur and his optical cover-up, they wouldn't be so relaxed looking for the door, quite possibly he would be fighting for his life instead of looking for the door in a relaxed way...

"Every time this area becomes chaotic, moreover the army is yet to arrive, your duties as a scout are finished, correct? ...."

The humans in the first level were successful in exterminating the monsters, although they suffered casualties, they were not so severe because they could apply appropriate strategies and now they were climbing the pyramid to reach this level, which worried Elias more since with the arrival of the army, their movements would be limited and this area will become a massive war zone ...

"..."

Seeing that Elias did not speak, Arthur sighed, this subject was not willing to give up and was not afraid of danger ...

"Big brother, be honest ... You are not a scout correct? What are you looking for in this Secret Realm?"

It was obvious that Elias was not a hunter or explorer-like the rest of the Wunder users, Elias had a personal goal for him ...

"If you trust me, I can help you ..."

"..."

Hearing this, Elias couldn't help but look at Arthur ...

When was the last time someone offered to help you? Elias didn't remember, but it was years ago and it was his late wife who always helped him ...

The days passed and each day was more difficult, as much as Elias does not want to admit it, if it were not for Arthur's help, he may not have been able to enter this level, this child is very smart always one step ahead, taking care of his back...

Elias did not trust anyone, but his guard around this child was on the ground, he simply had no reason to doubt him, besides that he felt an inexplicable emotional attachment towards this child ...

"Me..."

Elias's mouth trembled, but at this point he knew that doing it alone is impossible, being in this Secret Realm is too dangerous, he felt powerless and every day that passed he lost his confidence in himself, he hated himself for not being stronger, but a part of him was prompting him to quit ...

"Me..."

Elias wanted to say it, these feelings about his wife and son, his pain.

But Arthur is a child, he did not want to put such a burden on someone strange and special on someone so young, the responsibilities of an adult are something that only adults should assume.

"Were they that important to you?"

"...!?"

Arthur did not have to be a genius to know that Elias was doing it for someone, Elías at this time had the same expression that people had when they knew that his loved one no longer had a long time to live.

As a doctor in his past life, he had seen too much in the hospital, to know that this person that Elias lost was special ...

"Yes, they are very important ..."

"So I'm all ears"

"It's a very long history..."

"We have all the time, so you can start ..."

Spurred on by Arthur's words, Elias decided, to be honest, maybe it's because Arthur is still a child or maybe because he was looking to vent, Elias told his story ...

(Everybody has a story ...)

Sighing Arthur shook his head, no matter what world you are in, there will always be problems and human greed will be the same.

But although Elias's story was very sad, his plan to bring his family to life was very crazy. By simple legend, this man went so far even to challenge this Secret Realm.

"It's crazy, but if there's hope, I'll do whatever it takes to bring my family back ..."

"...."

Love sucks, create stupid and blind people, Arthur wasted a lifetime looking for something stupid, however even though Arthur did not believe in this abstract thing called 'Love', he could not say a single word to refute his senseless actions And stupid of Elias, he had no right to do so and he had no reason to stop him.

"Sorry about this, I kept you awake ..."

Smiling in apology, it must have been boring to listen to him, although Arthur did not say anything he knew that this child must have been boring to listen to him, children do not want to hear sad stories, they want stories about heroes, because of that I do not doubt, his sleeping capsule was opened and continued.

"You should also sleep, tomorrow will be another long day ..."

"Goodnight..."

---------------

With Elias entering his capsule, Arthur seized the moment and spoke.

"Akagi, is there such a wish-fulfilling Artifact?"

But with everything Elias told him, Arthur doubted a bit, if there is such an Artifact, he has been in this Secret Realm for a total of 4 years and has never encountered anything like it.

"No, the only Artifact here is me ..."

Akagi shook her head, even for a World Artifact, being able to fulfill any wish is impossible, for example, if that person his wish is eternal life, a World Artifact even though it can change the concepts of the world, eternity is something unheard of, likewise is Elias, revive the dead, bring back a soul that has dispersed in the world, go against the concept of life and death, although necromancers are capable of reviving corpses, they cannot bring back The soul of a person, a scattered soul cannot be restored and because of the story of Elias, the soul of son and wife, has long since been dispersed, it was impossible to save them unless they can travel through time...

(Maybe ... I can do it?)

Thus remembering his fourth innate ability, Arthur wanted to test it, but he dismissed the idea as time travel brings consequences, which even Level Upper cannot calculate.

"But even so, that legend is very suspicious."

"Hmmm"

Akagi also thought, she does not remember that a human entered this Secret Realm a thousand years ago, the information about the Secret Realm was too detailed to be invented ...

(Could it be her?)

But suddenly a memory flashed in his software and Akagi's expression turned pale, it was a dark past that Akagi wishes to bury in her soul and never revive ...

"Do you remember something? There is something in your memory bank ..."

"No, nothing"

That Arthur suddenly asked him almost made Akagi jump in shock, fortunately, she is a machine and I control her emotions very well and I do not let Arthur suspect, although the latter narrowed his eyes, he did not trust her words ...

Chapter 87: Chapter 87: Gate

"Hm ... Well, I don't have a choice then ..."

Arthur thought about it, Elías was not willing to give up and at this rate, the Secret Kingdom was closing with Elias inside, Arthur did not want this.

"Why are you so worried about that human?"

Akagi did not want to say it, but she was jealous of this human, Arthur treated him with kindness as if Elias was part of his family, this was something that Akagi could not understand, Arthur always behaved distantly, he did not trust anyone but with Elias, Arthur was like a child trying to get his father's attention ...

"..."

Arthur didn't say anything, he turned his gaze to Elias who was sleeping in his capsule, and the shadow of a person combined with his figure, this was reason enough for Arthur.

Suddenly from his space ring, a statue of a Lychee appeared.

This statue was the key to the entrance to the next level, as well as the statue that Arthur sealed.

"Eh? Arthur, you're not thinking ...."

Seeing this statue, Akagi almost materialized, after all, she knew how important this statue is ...

This happened when Arthur left that area of ​​death, out of fear that these powerful monsters would leave that Area, Arthur sealed the key and hid it in his space ring, which by coincidence turned out to be a statue of the Lychees, this was also the beginning between Arthur's uncontrolled hunt that led to the Lychees' extinction.

Arthur did not wish to leave a single trace and the slightest chance of breaking that seal ...

But now because of Elias, he was willing to reopen that Death Area ...

"Arthur I must remind you that even if it has been two years since then, our survival in that Area is still at the bottom ..."

"I survived with a 1% probability, now my probability is 15%, I am stronger ..."

Clenching his fist, Arthur's eyes burned with fighting intent, he wanted revenge against those monsters that hunted him nonstop for two years.

--------------

"Hm ..."

Elias had a dream, it was the same dream that he had dreamed that time when he lost his wife, about that miserable man.

Every time he dreamed of that man's life, he felt miserable and at the same time nostalgic, as if he were remembering a life, but although he knew that this dream was painful, Elias decided to keep looking, as a kind of consolation towards his miserable life.

"Oh ..."

Opening his eyes, the digital clock in the capsule woke him up, this was his alarm, bringing a hand to his face, Elias sighed as he slowly opened the capsule.

"Hm?"

Suddenly he heard an unusual noise as if someone were assembling a Wunder, turning his head Elias was surprised, in front of him was a strange ring-shaped machine where a boy with four mechanical arms and assistant drones built this machinery ...

"Oh? Mr. Elias woke up ..."

Arthur didn't even need to turn his head to know that Elias had awakened, he continued programming the portal that would take them to the next level.

"Liam ... what is this ?! What are you building?"

Not in his wildest dreams Elias thought that Liam was a Mechanical Engineer, after all, to be a mechanical engineer a person had to have a good affinity for the metal element and be very sensitive to magic power, not to mention having good vision, since it is well known among humans that those with good vision tend to learn more and be more intelligent.

And although there were young geniuses capable of making their own Wunder and customizing them, these people are trained in the best universities, they are precious human resources of the government and some are even scholarships to attend the World Academy.

Arthur again gave him a surprise, but this was natural, with Akagi and Level Upper there was nothing robotic that Arthur could not create, it could be said that Arthur's limitation has always been his low magic power that avoids exploiting the full potential of the Nano-machines.

"I built a 'gate', Mr. Elias ...."

The portal that Arthur created when he left the Area of ​​Death has been closed years ago and using the Statue of Lychees would cause the border that divides both levels to disappear thus causing the monsters on the other side to invade this level, because of that Arthur built a 'Gate' that stabilizes the entrance to the other level as well as prevent these monsters from detecting and preventing them from exiting.

For that Arthur had to recreate a limitation that is this 'Ring', program it and use the coordinates of the statue of Lycheestoto to open an independent door.

"Gate?"

Elias still didn't understand what this boy was doing, but at that moment Arthur took out the little statue of Lychee, causing Elias to open his eyes in shock.

"Liam ... You, all the time ..."

Elias understood at last, why he had spent days and days looking for this statue without any results, but it was obvious that he would never find it, Arthur had already found it and kept it hidden until now.

And from the way that Arthur casually took out, he had found some time ago, it is possible that his drones had hidden it and handed it over to his owner in secret, thus preventing Elias from noticing ...

But ... why did Arthur hide it?

And also ... Why did he take out now? Is it because of their conversation the day before? Elias didn't know, but he was cautious.

"That's right Mr. Elias, I had the key all this time, as far as I'm doing .... Simply fulfilling your desire to go through the next level ..."

Placing the statue in the middle of the Hoop, the device scanned it, the statue began to float and Arthur began to inject magic power into it, thus causing a space door to open in the middle.

"...."

Elias was silent for a few seconds, overnight the boy in front of him changed a lot, he always showed emotions such as being scared or smiling, however now his face was expressionless, likewise, there was a hidden coldness in his face, as if he were a completely different person, maybe if he did not have the blindfold, it is possible that this child would have a frown.

"Who you are?"

"Does my identity matter now? Mr. Elias, I know you are confused and have many questions ... But, I am not obliged to answer"

Arthur's last words sent deep chills to Elias, but this didn't matter to Arthur and he continued.

"Passing through this portal is the next level, it is up to you to believe me or not, but this is your only chance to choose"

Elias indeed had many questions, the mystery of this child is getting bigger and bigger and for some reason, Elias had the feeling that Arthur's identity is not so simple.

He also had the feeling that this child was not lying about this portal, although everything is so suspicious, Elias gritted his teeth, and his Wunder-Lapis was activated and took a step forward, he had already arrived here, he was not going to give up ...

Seeing this, Arthur sighed, stepped forward, and blocked his way.

"Before you go through this portal, I will tell you in advance, the difficulty of this level is nothing compared to the previous levels, your survival probability is 0.0001%, with such a high death rate, it will not take you more than an hour in being assassinated, he will experience nightmares far beyond what he has felt before, besides I, Liam, will not accompany him on his journey, do you still want to continue? "

Arthur was not lying, Elías will die if he goes alone and this is a certainty, the difficult jump was ridiculous, however, Elias's gaze does not waver and he took another step forward ...

"I said it last night, but if there is even the slightest chance of hope, I will not give up ..."

Elias had no idea why Arthur knew all this, but anyway without his family, Elias would rather be dead, he couldn't get revenge and if he couldn't bring his family back then it was okay if this area is his grave.

At least he will die knowing that he did everything possible and he also hopes that his family wherever he wants that he does not blame him ...

(If I can't bring them back, then I'll go to them ...)

With that in mind, a smile formed on Elias's face, and Arthur took a step back, leaving the way free.

"If it's what you want I'm not going to stop you ..."

Waving his hand, a holographic screen appeared in front of Arthur, pressing a button, the portal began to change color likewise a digital clock began the countdown

"This portal to the next level is programmed to close after 300 hours, after that time the Portal will be closed by force and this device will self-destruct, if it does not leave in that specified time, I will take it as if you failed and are dead ... "

This was cruel but necessary, if he kept the portal open any longer, the monsters on the other side will find out, and then this level and possibly the next even the real world will suffer from these monsters.

"Thank you, I'll have it in mind"

He had many questions to ask, but at the end that didn't matter, since he was one step away from completing his wish.

"Good luck..."

Assisting Arthur, Elías smiled one last time before entering the portal at a steady pace.

And seeing his back disappear, Arthur smiled bitterly, wishing him good luck ...

Arthur thought that by telling him all this, Elías would be scared and avoid entering the portal, but it seems that I underestimate him, this human did not withdraw ...

"Love huh? A complex emotion that I can't understand ... What's so good about love anyway? Nothing good comes out of getting involved in love."

If it weren't for love, Elias would marry his fiancee instead of choosing his late wife, he would also avoid creating all that hatred he had with his family, they would continue together and his life would be much easier, his children would be accepted and not he had to run or hide.

Why didn't Elias understand that marrying someone of a different status would only bring him misfortune?

Arthur was not an idiot, he was a man just like Elias and he got engaged at an age of six, but for Arthur, nothing changed, whether his wife is the future Queen or just his sister, in the end, everything was beneficial for him and he would ensure By making the most of his commitment, his life would not be plagued with difficulties and he had his freedom.

He could even exercise a much greater political power, likewise being the noblest man in the world, his words had a great weight on society.

The only thing Arthur feared was the loss of power, that was all, however for Elias this was different ...

For love, his life became miserable.

Love sucks create stupid and blind people, Arthur hated this emotion, even now someone as weak as Elias dared to enter the death zone ... Where do I get that courage?

Arthur couldn't understand, even now he thought that Elias was a suicidal madman who didn't hesitate to walk towards his death.

Was it worth doing? There was nothing at the end, only a bitter truth, so even if by some miracle he managed to cross the death zone, he would simply be disappointed, since there was no such Artifact that fulfills wishes, what awaits him is a nobody's paradise.

"Love is beautiful, it does not create stupid and blind people, it creates brave and persevering people, as long as there is love, there is hope and therefore people will fight, they will protect their love, it is the greatest feeling that living beings have and which we long for ... "

Materializing, Akagi hugged his neck and whispered in response, Arthur shrugged, after all a machine spoke to him about feelings, which was something very strange, so strange that it seemed that the machine here is him and not Akagi ...

"I think you should stop seducing me whenever an opportunity presents itself ..."

Although Akagi's words sounded very sincere, Arthur knew that this woman was simply taking advantage of the environment to make him fall, which was so predictable ...

"Of course not! I meant it ... Do you have so little confidence in me?"

"Hmmm ..."

Arthur didn't reply but his expression was enough to make Akagi puff out his annoying cheeks.

"Agh! There she goes again, you lack love!"

"Is that so? I can't understand it ..."

"Someday you will understand, after all, I love you, Arthur ..."

"..."

Arthur did not respond to her confession of love and continued staring at the portal for a few more seconds, before returning to his original form and walking towards the portal.

"Enough of this, we have to go ..."

"Good..."

Akagi looked at her with one eye and attended, Arthur may not know it, but his actions at the moment, he was quite close to that feeling that he hates so much since in some part of his mind, he wanted Elias to succeed and fulfill his impossible wish, at the same time I also wanted to see him defeated, I wanted him to understand that Love, which he believes, is and always will be shit ...
