章 15: Chapter 15 - Nortlight City Authorities
Marsil had been running for about three hours, and the weight of the Black Magic Ant's body he was carrying was beginning to feel heavy.
"I've distanced myself enough from the ant region..."
Marsil stopped and gently placed the ant's body on the ground to take a rest.
A broad smile adorned his face, clearly showing his good mood.
"I should check my status."
Marsil focused his attention on his soul, and after a few seconds, the blue panel appeared before him.
Name: Marsil
Physique: 2.0
Power: 1.0
Agility: 1.0
Spirit: 1.0
Abilities: Survival, Level 1; Archery, Level 1; Memphis Sword Art, Level 1.
Soul Power: 1 Point
Marsil closed his eyes partially and began to sense his body.
Gradually, he concentrated on the "agility" aspect and, after a few seconds, felt a lightness spreading through his limbs.
His legs, feet, and arms all felt lighter, and he found himself easily attuned to the speed of the flying insects around him.
Strengthening his "agility" had a purpose. It boosted his attack and movement speeds, both crucial for his survival.
These enhancements improved not only his combat effectiveness but also his chances of escaping danger.
Marsil was no fool.
"I can't face numerous threats alone. If I encounter two or three ants instead of just one, my only option is to run."
"With my previous speed, escaping was impossible, but now I feel confident about getting away."
Boosting his "agility" was primarily to bolster his survival and escape capabilities.
The other attributes weren't as vital—at least, not for the moment.
"If I can't stay alive to see tomorrow, it won't matter how much I increase my soul power, physical strength, or any other attribute."
Having rested sufficiently, Marsil hoisted the ant's body and continued on his way.
After two hours of walking, a small town appeared on the horizon.
The town was encircled by large wooden walls, and people were entering and leaving in small groups.
"I'm far enough from Whiterock City. It shouldn't be possible for news to spread and for me to be wanted in such a small town."
"Even if a situation arises, I'm confident I can take on three or four regular warriors simultaneously with my current speed and physical abilities."
Marsil walked on with confidence. At that moment, some passersby—men and women—noticed the ant's body on Marsil's back.
"Isn't that a black magic ant?" inquired a young blond man from the middle-aged man beside him, who was clad in steel armor.
The middle-aged man exuded experience, etched into his weathered face.
"Yes, it's a black magic ant," the middle-aged man confirmed, his gaze focused on Marsil as he drew nearer.
Both men were guards stationed at the town's entrance.
As Marsil approached, he offered a nod of greeting, prompting the middle-aged guard to speak.
"You look like a hunter, young man. Welcome to Blueberry Town."
Just so you know, Blueberry Town falls under the jurisdiction of Northlight City in the Northern Region."
"Any trouble you cause here won't just affect the town and its residents; it would also draw the ire of the Northlight City Authorities."
Marsil took a deep breath and responded, "I have no intention of causing any trouble. I'm here to sell this ant's body and rest briefly before resuming my journey."
The middle-aged guard scrutinized Marsil from head to toe, giving an approving nod before offering a smile.
"Very well then, young man. Feel free to proceed, rest, and enjoy your time."
Returning the smile, Marsil saluted and entered the town.
Inside, he encountered wooden houses and stone-paved roads along the main streets.
The town seemed to have achieved a considerable level of development in terms of its civilization.
Before long, people's gazes were drawn to Marsil, the ant's body he carried, attracting attention wherever he went.
"I need to sell this ant as quickly as possible."
Marsil thought to himself. He wasn't enjoying the spotlight and would prefer to avoid unnecessary attention.
After a few minutes of walking, Marsil spotted the shop he was seeking.
"So, this is the place that I was looking for."
Marsil smiled and entered the shop within minutes.
