The chirping of birds made Leon's head to calm down. He was invited at the stool behind the stall counter where the vendor is standing.
"Here sir, this will help you soothe the heat."
"Thanks." Leon accepted a small bottle and uncap the lid. A strong strawberry scent entered his nostrils and immediately made him drink the content.
10 seconds...
15 seconds...

Leon was wondering why the bottle is not getting empty. Minutes had passed and Leon was catching his breath while looking at the bottle.
"1000mL. Best served with ice." He immediately turn to give a look to the vendor getting himself busy assisting a customer that is evidently getting irritated by his over meddling to his stuff.

Retreating footsteps made Leon heave a sigh before he rest his back on the wall of the house. He didn't notice the people that were looking at him and he doesn't really care. The door opens and the people that were looking at Leon disperse and went to the person that entered. "Are you alright chief? Did the guard harmed you or anything? Are you really alright?" Leon watches as a woman checks every part of the woman's body. In her wrinkled face Leon still could read the discomfort from the other's over worriness. "You can give her a breather...if you just want." Leon blurted out that made the people look at him simultaneously while one blade went into his neck. Leon whistled. "You are cheeky for

It is use to make weapons and armors imbued with a clash resistance magic. Doing so, it become indestructible and the most sturdy equipment but Leon know a fatal flaw of this mineral.

AGED Task
Leon didn't respond and that made Rosario thinks that he might have forgotten such thing. She then decided to continue on explaining which greatly helps Leon. "The lower ranks that had been seen as the lowliest and people who doesn't have the privilege of the watch has no rights to use the currency they are using. This mineral, Mithril is the one that had been specifically use by people like us. Because this mineral is their staple need to fuel the watch that they love so much. It was high in the market but by using us, the lower rank people that has no choice if we are being used too much with only a little in return. We...are tired of not filling our stomachs. We..." A small sob makes Leon remember that even though they are passed their age, all wrinkly and bony, they still have emotions and feelings that can get hurt or feel pain. Leon gave Rosario time to calm down and when she finally came back to her senses, she bowed her hea
AGED It means to be a leader
There is an uproar after the dishes had been served. Most of the people can't put their plate and bowl down. Some forgot to drink water and was pounding their chest hard so for air to flow in their lungs. It has been a long time since they have a taste of this ancient cooking. They couldn't care less if the ingredients aren't in the best qualities but the end result is what matters and that their stomachs were asking for more. The line that had been kept Leon captive is increasingly stretch and seeing the exhausted smile hanging on Leon's face, Rosario took over of the work and let Leon rest."Are you tired? Want to get some rest?" Mint from the watch said but Leon remained silent. He had been thinking since earlier. That is why he doesn't mind the increasing line in front of him and just continue to serve them with his food. He didn't notice the change in personnel beside him which is doing the same thing as his. Leon prepared a feast for everyone and whe
AGED Calm before the storm
"Sir! It was good to see you today too!" "What a good day sir! You are very energetic here too!" "Oh my! The diligence of yours don't change sir!" "Can you please lower down your voices please? It is attracting too much attention..." His voice has no strength at all and the embarrassment for the passed days that they've been into the camp of the low. Leon had been fixing the small damages around the camp and the people were truly grateful of his conduct. They are curious as to where he is getting all the energy that he has been exerting since the day he offered help. There is nothing much of a problem in the camp. Just small quarrel about who is the first one to attend the mass or call of the leader or who is the first one to get up and change the fire that had kept them warm during the cold nights. They did well to solve the problem of hypothermia by having no warmer or heater av

PLEASE WAIT...』"CAN YOU DO IT MORE FASTER!!! UGH!" Leon is currently being suppressed by the high voltage coming from the watch. It was not just simple as a current but a big one that made him immobile, the great devourer that had been hailed and feared by many. The bombs are spreading blood to the ground and the screams of the people are making Leon feel useless."This thing...this hateful AI...." Leon had never taken anyone back here in the Earthex as a threat to him but since this thing, not to mention not actually a person is able to stop him, someone being feared by most of the monster inside the gate. Leon couldn't accept the humiliation."System, if you valu
AGED >Transfer<
Leon took a while before he adjusted from the bright light that swallowed them and the first that greeted him was the eerie coldness that seeps through his bone and chilled his spine. "Where..." Rosario held her head and was feeling dizzy after the rapid movement that transport them to some place that they are not familiar. "Esteemed sir! Where are we?!" Someone grabbed the hem of Leon's cape and was panting hard. There is blood coating her face and the urgency mixed with fear strike something in Leon that made him removed her hands on his clothes.

AGED Damn!
They all are resting in different camps of people and some were already resting on the ground. Leon did the same and was at the far end of the group while the others were close to one another. The earlier man that went unconscious was called Edgar. He is known to be a diligent member of the group and a nice man. He helps everyone that needed help and people were worried to what might happened to him. There is only one trait that the people know him of. He is a coward that is why Leon didn't know Edgar. Because the man didn't have the courage to face Leon. There is two person that are checking up on his condition and they were inside the cave not far from where Leon was. Maybe it was guild or his conscience that made Leon be on guard and ready if there is something happened to Edgar. After all, he was the one responsible for what happened...indirectly. He is the last person that Edgar is with and e
