Kapitel 20: Elena [1]

Earth, within an unknown dungeon.

A girl with dark blue hair and matching eyes stood before a giant snake-like beast. Her eyes shone with a vicious light as she charged to face it head-on.

The snake held the human in contempt. She had come to his layer alone and expected to defeat him? He couldn't help but look down on her. As it opened its mouth, a stream of green gaseous substance poured out, heading straight for the girl.

However, she didn't stop her charge. A faint blue hue surrounded her body and she sped straight into the snake's breath. Before the snake could celebrate its easy victory, however, the girl emerged from the cloud and jumped towards the snake's head.

"Haa!"

With a spirited shout, she raised her sword, which was now covered in a blood-red hue, and swung.

"SKREE!"

The snake let out a shrill screech as a deep gash appeared on its body. However, it had lost its chance to do anything. The girl's speed suddenly multiplied as she moved around the snake's huge body and cut various gashes in its flesh.

After many minutes of this, with the snake being unable to even escape from this girl who had seemingly infinite stamina, a sword was plunged directly between its eyes. The snake, whose eyes were filled with unwillingness, slumped to the floor lifeless.

"Haa…haa…" The girl panted as she wiped the blood off her sword. Feeling the new levels of power coursing through her body, she checked her status

Although she was satisfied with her strength, she thought she wasn't improving fast enough.

'It's been one and a half years since Damien disappeared, and in this time I've only gained around 30 levels. While this speed is extraordinary in comparison to the other 'geniuses' I've seen, it doesn't feel like it's enough.'

Although she couldn't explain it, she had always had a feeling that she should be leveling up faster. This feeling was similar to the one that told her Damien was alive.

She may have been hallucinating, but she truly felt as if there was a faint link between them, allowing her to know if she could keep up or not.

Around 5 days after Damien's disappearance, she felt an intense stinging sensation in her heart, and when it vanished, she felt like she could no longer sit still. She started covertly going to any available gates that could make her stronger and leveling up like crazy.

Her guild also became a problem due to this. She spent all of her time either inside of a dungeon or visiting Damien's mother, so she became relatively unreachable, and the guild began berating her for it.

They had also begun pressuring her to partner with Jin in various publicity stunts and dungeon raids, but she vehemently refused. It seemed that the guild itself had been bought out by the Horten conglomerate and had become their dogs.

With Jin's active pursuit of her never ceasing, and even getting worse once he had her guild's backing, Elena decided she'd had enough. She entirely left the guild and acted solo.

Luckily, anyone could earn money through hunting beasts, and their corpses could be sold in various subsidiaries of the Guild Association, which had long cemented its reputation and status that was above any other organization in the world.

Elena was pissed, but she couldn't do anything about it, so she hid her strength and continued to level up. In the world's eye, however, she had stopped her action as a hunter due to the grief of her friend's death.

Elena put her hood up to hide her face and stealthily exited the dungeon, heading to the hospital once again to have idle talk with Damien's mother.

Although she was unresponsive, her presence was enough to remind Elena of Damien. As Elena entered the hospital room that looked just the same as it always did, one of the clerks at the front desk subtly grabbed her phone and made a call.

"Yes sir," she said, "the woman you were talking about has just entered the hospital."

On the other side of the line was a relatively handsome man, whose twisted expression completely ruined his face. After ending the call, Jin smashed his phone on the floor.

'Dammit! That slut is still over there taking care of that bastard's mom! How does she even get the money for it? Hmph, she's probably selling her body like the whore she is!'

Jin's expression became more and more menacing as time passed, and his aura began to leak, forcing his assistants and bodyguards to make distance.

'Well, it doesn't matter anymore then. If she's already letting others have a taste, it doesn't matter if I get a little forceful. Hehe, yes she hadn't even leveled up since she left the guild, she'll be easy prey.'

Jin smiled wickedly and stood up. "All of you, don't follow me. This young master is going to have some fun tonight."

Stuck in his delusions of tasting Elena's body, which he had been chasing for the past year and a half, Jin failed to notice the ominous air that was revolving around him.

Back in the hospital room, Elena was making idle talk to Damien's mother, telling her of the events that were taking place in the world.

"Stronger gates have been showing up recently, and some are even so strong that only our peak experts can close them. Luckily for me though, these gates are the ones that help me level up the fastest." Elena said before switching the topic.

"Oh, I also heard that the guy with raisin manipulation has become a multi-millionaire through reality tv. Isn't it crazy that even a power as stupid as raisin manipulation can make you rich? I guess the world will always love its comedy and stupidity."

The "Raisin Game", as it was titled, was one of the most popular shows on the internet at the moment. As the threat of gates and monsters started to become more serious, the common populace turned to shows like this to negate their worries.

After all, it was a man who had been stuck with the sad fate of having useless powers but had been creative enough to raise his fame and status until he was at the top. Humans will always love a good underdog story.

However, this was only entertainment for the common populace. Among those who sought power, the most trending topic was about a certain Japanese man named Fujimura Ryutaro.

Even before the World Awakening, Ryutaro was a famous swordsman who had practiced throughout his life. Once mana was introduced, he had continued on this path.

He had risen to prominence and become one of Japan's most talented hunters, and now, after six and a half years, he had achieved a groundbreaking feat.

Ryutaro had raised his Sword Mastery skill, which was common among those who had even slight attainments in swordsmanship, to level 10 and unlocked something he called 'Sword Aura'.

Sword Aura was a widely known concept to those who had ever been engrossed in the fantasy genre, and its discovery had rocked the world.

After all, if concepts that were only prominent in fiction turned out to be real, did that mean that humanity on Earth had already been in contact with mana before, or was the human psyche already prepped by the system to adapt to mana beforehand?

Many scientific studies had been started due to this discovery, and humanity was starting to enter a new age.

After getting this far, Elena decided it was time for her to leave. She had already been ranting for many hours and felt that any more would be embarrassing.

After Elena left, the shadows that lurked in the corners of the room converged into the form of a man.

The man, whose features were obscured behind a veil of shadows, had a mystifying presence. It was as if he both existed and didn't exist in reality. He walked up to the bed and stared at Damien's mother for a few long minutes before heaving a sigh.

"Claire, I'm sorry you had to end up in this condition. If his birth didn't sap all the mana in your body you'd be living comfortably, but I know that neither of us would want it that way. Even if I can't be there to watch over him, he's my pride and joy." As he spoke, the man's body began to fade.

"Just wait a bit longer. I can feel his presence in a world nearby. I believe he'll return soon and wake you up. As long as that stupid brat listened to the things I taught him when he was young, he'll be fine."

Suddenly, a nurse entered the room.

"Hello? Is anyone there?" She had thought she heard voices through the door, but visiting hours were long past over.

However, when she entered, she saw nothing but a sleeping patient and curtains blowing softly in the wind.

The shadowy figure had vanished as if it never existed in the first place.


Kapitel 21: Elena [2]

Meanwhile, Elena was walking home. 'I wonder when the next big gate will show up. I need more opportunities to increase my strength so I can walk uninhibited on this world and maybe even explore new worlds.'

Elena was always a girl with plenty of ambition. For this reason, she had trained and risen through the ranks of her guild until she was one of its top talents. Only in the past year and a half had her motivation for strength gone through a slight change.

But this slight change didn't mean that the core of her personality has changed. At the end of the day, Elena was still a person who wished to explore the universe and become a peak powerhouse that surpassed even the demigod level that had recently been discovered.

Thinking about how she should raise her strength, Elena walked down the dark streets lit only by the occasional street lamps and unwittingly ended up taking a nearby alleyway as a shortcut.

Suddenly, she sensed a presence behind her.

"What a surprise that we just happened to meet here!" Came a pretentious and irritating voice.

Elena turned around to see Jin standing at the entrance of the alleyway. He was dressed in dark clothes and if one wasn't aware of his status, they'd immediately call the cops on this suspicious-looking individual.

Though it wasn't like the police could do anything to him either way.

Elena panicked. She had been so deep in thought that she had failed to realize she was being tailed. And since it was Jin here, the reason was undoubtedly something sinister.

"What do you want with me?" Elena said as she tried to put up a strong front, but the subtle shaking in her body gave her away.

Jin was so incomparably excited when he saw this prideful woman trembling in his presence that he almost pounced on her right away, but he managed to contain himself.

"Hehe, Elena don't be so hasty. Why don't you come have a nice and friendly conversation with this young master?" He said with an expression that directly opposed the words "nice" and "friendly".

Jin walked forward, lustfully eyeing Elena's voluptuous body. After reaching 2nd class, she had become even more beautiful than she was when he first saw her. Her shoulder-length sea-blue hair glistened in the moonlight and her eyes were like two shining sapphires that Jin couldn't help but feel drawn into.

Her body was curvaceous in all the right places, with breasts that would make any man go red with lust. Jin smiled lewdly as he thought of all the things he would do to her tonight as he finally reached her.

Elena was backing away fearfully with his every step forward, but with his level, he easily caught up to her.

"W-what are you scheming Jin?!" Elena shouted as she tried to attract attention to the alleyway. However, it was late at night and the streets were largely empty. Those who were out at this time weren't the type to help a damsel in distress either.

Elena turned as she attempted to run away, but Jin caught her wrists and pinned her down to the ground.

"What's the rush, Elena? Do you hate me so much? All I want to do is talk." Even as he spoke such innocent words, Jin tried to run his hands down her exquisite face.

However, Elena didn't allow that to happen. She wrestled for control, forcing him to give up on his attempts.

Still, Jin didn't care. He would finally take what was his. He didn't care if she was sullied or unwilling, all he wanted was to use her and then throw her away like trash.

As Jin's hand went towards Elena's heaving bosom, he felt his euphoria heighten to a new level, and he looked towards Elena's face so he could witness the look of despair she held.

However, he was bound to be disappointed. When his eyes met hers, all he saw was contempt. Elena's helpless expression was nowhere to be seen, as currently, she wore a cold smile on her face.

In this position, how could Jin even think about running away? This was what Elena had been aiming for. Elena was someone who spent almost every day diving into gates and fighting life or death battles with various beasts. With this kind of lifestyle, what kind of dumb joke would it be if she was scared of the likes of Jin?

Elena swiftly grabbed Jin's wrist, preventing him from escaping. Jin used everything he had to try and escape, but it wasn't an option from the start. Jin had only just entered 2nd class, while Elena was already 15 levels ahead of him. Today, she had thoroughly decided to teach him a lesson.

When he had openly pursued her even after she rejected him countless times, she ignored him. When he bought out her guild to coerce her into joining him, she ignored him. And when he had pushed Damien into that gate one and a half years ago, she had pushed down her rage and ignored him.

This wasn't out of respect, adoration, or any positive feeling, rather it was solely due to his backing. But in this kind of situation, why would Elena continue to care about something as superficial as backing?

Looking at Jin, whose face had paled in horror, Elena felt a strange sense of satisfaction. 'Could it be that I'm a sadist? Or is it just that this guy is such an asshole that anyone would become a sadist in front of him?' At the end of the day, she didn't care.

Thinking of a great idea, Elena cut Jin's pants off, leaving him stark naked from the waist down, before frowning in disgust.

'Damn, it really pisses me off that I have to look at this thing, but it'll be more fun seeing him run down the streets like this, so I guess I'll let it slide.'

Elena invoked her mana, and a holy white light appeared at her fingertips.

"Well then, since you like to think with this little, wait no little isn't enough, should I say tiny, or microscopic? No, even an ant's dick is probably bigger than this thing! You seriously have a lot of guts to go around acting all high and mighty with this atom-sized thing between your legs. Ah, I'm getting off-topic."

Jin almost coughed blood and passed out just from that. It seemed that Elena had inflicted a critical hit before she even did anything. Ignoring Jin's situation, Elena continued.

"As I was saying, if you like to think with this smaller than an atom-sized thing between your legs so much, I guess it's my duty as a former teammate to get rid of it right? After all, you need a clear head to go into gates and fight!"

Jin's face paled even further as he realized what she was about to do, but he was unable to escape from her grip. He could only helplessly watch as a small beam of white light shot out of Elena's fingertips and cleanly cut off his "pride" as a man.

"AHHHHHHH" Jin screamed. The feeling of emptiness between his legs, although he was used to it for a different reason, was one of the most painful experiences he ever had.

Elena smiled looking at such a Jin as she proceeded to cut his Achilles' tendons so he couldn't move. As a 2nd class, Jin could easily heal this small injury, though he'd never be able to regain his manhood.

Elena did this so that jin would only be able to leave the alleyway after he healed, which would be in the morning when the streets were plenty populated.

Taking his phone and crushing it so Jin didn't have an easy way out, Elena threw him to the floor and walked out of the alleyway with an eery smile on her face. Elena suddenly had a silly thought.

'Looks like I've prepared a great present for Damien when he returns. I wonder how he feels about eunuchs?'

Whistling the tune of her favorite song, Elena continued to walk home as if nothing happened.
