Abandoned Tower Dungeon (II)
>Quest Activated: Win the Trial of Lythandor!The challenge remained vaguely defined, yet I understood its essence: to suceed Sylvana's trial."Only if you withstand our magic assault will your status as the chosen sorcerer, Ash, be prepared!" Sylvana declared with unwavering conviction.A potent surge of magical energy emanated from each elf, culminating in a formidable torrent fromSylvana herself—a clear prelude to an impending spell. Instantly, a volley of fireballs erupted, a coordinated assault designed for my annihilation.A high damage spell was impossible to solve this since it took relatively long casting time.Even I attack with quick casting spell; the elves formed an impenetrable ring, leaving no avenue for evasion or complete countermeasures.Their attack threatened from all directions!Adding to this life-threatening condition, Sylvana herself conjured a spectral, airborne blade, aiming for my jugular—an evidence to her mastery of the obsidian sword technique.However,
Abandoned Tower Dungeon
Before dawn broke, I was ready to venture the Abandoned Tower Dungeon.Unlocking the Abandoned Tower Dungeon key within Avyanna's apartment would have been simple, but the risk of disturbing her slumber was too great.The parking lot offered a more discreet solution."Leaving already, Ash?" Asteria mumbled, a drowsy protest muffled by the blanket she hastily pulled around her half-clad form."Yes, get back to sleep, Asteria. You need your rest," I replied, a gentle wave accompanying my departure from her intimate space.Her sleepy wave and yawn were my farewell as she drifted back into slumber.My return to the parking lot was swift.The pre-dawn quietude was my ally; the deserted lot bore witness to my solitary actions.Retrieving the Key of the Abandoned Tower Dungeon from my system inventory, I initiated the activation sequence.>Utilized Key of Abandoned Tower Dungeon!>Magical Gate of Abandoned Tower Dungeon had opened!A blinding flash of cerulean light erupted beside me, the sy
Temptation (II)
As I check Asteria, she remained unconscious, but with a swift examination, I revealed stable vital signs: her temperature and breathing were normal, and her wounds from Wilder's assault appeared significantly healed.She was simply resting, but let her rest one night in a car seat was unwise.A more suitable location was her apartment.Then, her eyes flickered open."Asteria!"Relief flooded me."Thank God you're awake! Are you alright?"She paused, testing her limbs, before declaring with quiet assurance,"Yes, I'm fine now.""Excellent. A full day's rest will restore you completely. We're at your building. Shall we go to your room? I'll assist you."She nodded faintly."Yes, but walking is difficult. Could you… carry me?"The request, delivered in a surprisingly soft yet insistent tone, was unexpected.This wasn't the usually composed Asteria.But she'd shielded me from Wilder attack, and now it was my turn to take care of her."You don't have to worry about security in the apartme
Temptation
Driving Asteria home, I glanced in the rearview mirror.Lisa sat behind me, her face etched with a profound relief.Asteria, still unconscious in the backseat, was slowly recovering from her ordeal.As Lisa had explained, Asteria's healing would take time, a gradual return to full consciousness.Since Lisa lived nearby, I invited her along.A heavy silence fell between us until Lisa finally spoke."Ash," she began, her voice laced with apprehension,"about the Knight Association… are you… alright?"Her gaze was intensely curious."Yeah,"I replied, my tone calm, a shrug accompanying the words.She paused, then checked her Knight application, displaying my rank: Irregular.The utter peculiarity of my status, the only one of its kind in the world, elicited a strange, grim chuckle.It felt less like a progression from weak to strong, and more a shift from weak to utterly unique."Can I even be proud of this title? 'The Most Weird Knight'? What do you think, Lisa?"I asked, my laughter dr
Ranking and Evaluation (II)
I raised the blade, pointing it towards the heavens, but nothing.The legendary weapon remained without light, just a common sword in my grasp.Time stretched, the murmuring knights, their faces etched with suspicion, questioned the assessment.Their whispers, laced with contempt, escalated into a noise of disbelief."What sorcery is this?" one sneered."Did he trick the sacred blade with his deceptive magic?"Another scoffed, "This fraudster always make a mess things!"The accusations rained down, each syllable a stinging barb."The Legendary Sword rejects him! This imposter is unworthy of this hallowed hall!"The weight of their scorn pressed down heavily.My bewilderment deepened as Wilder suddenly snatched the sword."Done playing, you buffoon?" he roared, his laughter a cruel echo in the chamber.He then launched into a tirade, his voice booming across the great hall."Knights! Behold this fraud! The Legendary Sword reject this deceiver! Knight Association officials, I demand his
Ranking and Evaluation
But suddenly, the hospital door burst open, interrupting the charged atmosphere.The earlier sounds of feminine delightful were instantly replaced by a shriek of utter disbelief of someone.Asteria stood in the doorway, her jaw slack, witnessing our embrace."What in the world are you doing, Ash?!" she erupted, her fury immediate and intense.Lisa and I stared at her in bewilderment."Who is she?" Lisa asked, her arm still around me."A friend," I replied smoothly. "She's Avyanna, leader of the Crystallice Guild. Avyanna, this is Lisa.""Is there a problem, Avyanna?" I inquired, noting her furious expression."Nothing! I'm not upset or anything!" she retorted, averting my gaze.Her anger remained inexplicable.Asteria, impeccably dressed in her business attire, entered, carrying flowers similar to Lisa's, even though those flowers lacking the intricate mechanisms Lisa had described."I thought you were on the way to Knight Association headquarters, Alstair!" she snapped, her voice lac
