Chapter 80 Incident in the Underground Market
Edgar walks on the stairs until he reached the market. He went to a store with many magic materials. He sold magic materials and bought what he needed.
He walks toward the small stalls and wants to try his luck. He could detect their shapes with his life detection, but he couldn't tell their kind of minerals. He walks toward the area where he detected stone-shaped minerals.
Karlas and his subordinate are walking on the market.
A young hyperbeing name Carl looks intoxicated with alcohol. He is smoking and looks bored. He notices Karlas and his subordinate. They are not covering their faces with masks like he does. They look confident and have no trace of wary on their faces. Carl hasn't seen them before. He thinks that they came from a province, but they dare act arrogantly in the capital. He grins and walks toward them while smoking.
He blocks the way of Karlas and his subordinate.
Karlas' eyes turned sharp as he looks at the hyperbeing, but the Carl seems unfazed.
Carl took the cigarette from his mouth and blew out a lot of smoke on Karlas' face. Karlas' subordinate is astonished at the guts of the young hyperbeing.
Karlas' face turned gloomy, then he chuckled. A shadow moves from the shadow of a nearby store. It rapidly moves on the ground toward the shadow of the young hyperbeing.
"Sorry about that, I got intoxicated with alcohol and I can't control the smoke well. I'm Carl, a son of a team leader of Saber's Guild. Where are you from? I know many hyperbeings in various guilds. I might be able to help you if you need something in the capital," said the Carl with a friendly smile.
Karlas grins after he heard the young man.
"Indeed, I need something right now," answered Karlas.
"Hahahaha, just tell me what you nee-," the young man's sentence is cut off. His head is flying in the air. There is still a smile on his face.
"Your head," answered Karlas with fierce eyes.
Behind the young man is a headless black knight that slashed a sword. Its whole body is covered by death energy that looks like a burning black flame.
"Nooo! How dare you!" shouted a hyperbeing running toward them. He drew out his saber and released his aura.
Bang! The ground cracked as he dashed forward while threads of aura are rotating on his saber. He jumped up and holds his saber over his head. The aura that clad his saber became a big saber.
The headless black knight turned into death energy and went to Karlas. It combined with Karlas' body.
Karlas became a black knight. His whole body is covered by black armor, with death energy surrounding his body.
A middle-aged man with a mustache has sweat on his face as he hurried to the site. He looks very anxious as he saw what is happening, then he shouted.
"STOOOP! He is the VIP!"
The shout stopped the movement of the hyperbeing holding a saber.
"What?! The VIP?! The Death Guild!!" thought the hyperbeing. He stepped on earth in the air and jumped to his back. He dispersed the saber aura as he falls from the air.
He stares at Karlas, who is grinning, then looks at the headless body of the young man.
"That man is using death magic. The representative of the guild that controls the market already said who he is. There is no doubt that he is the VIP that guilds are trying to curry favor for, Death Guild. Shit! Carl insisted on coming, and I already told him to behave. Based on his past behavior, he probably touched the nerve of that Death Guild member. It's not worth offending Death Guild over a worthless son of a team leader. I should report it to the guild leader first. I am a team leader myself. If his father put his anger on me, then I will let him taste my saber and know his place, which is always below mine." He dispersed his aura and sheated his saber. He looks at Karlas and apologizes.
"I'm sorry if our guild member offended you. I will explain it to our guild leader and won't let his father trouble you," said the man.
Karlas chuckles. He walks, then his black armor slowly turns into death energy. It slowly falls and combines with his shadow.
When Karlas reached the side of the man, he said something to him.
"I thought the trash was surrounded by trash. There is actually someone decent and rational. You should eliminate the trash before your guild gets implicated and will really become trash hahahaha!"
The man feels furious, but he endures it. He fiercely stares at the back of Karlas. The man with a mustache feels relieved. He approaches the hyperbeing and pats his shoulder. He praised his rationality.
Edgar watched what happened. He even activated his duplicate skill, but the fight was too short. There was not enough time to duplicate the skill. Edgar looks at the incomplete rune skill and shakes his head. He deactivated the duplicate skill and let the incomplete rune skill burst.
"There will be an opportunity later," thought Edgar.
He walks to the small stall, and he is astonished by what he sees. Space stones, which are rare in the Aurora world, are being sold cheaply. He asked the seller, but he did not say where he got it. He bought it all and ordered more. The seller said that he would come back next month if he got more space stones.
Edgar returned to his home and went to his room.
He looks at the space stone on his right hand.
"Why is it being sold cheaply here? I read in the secret forum that there are space lands as broken worlds. Is the supply of space stones greater than demand? Do they not know how to smith using space stones? That will be favorable to me if that is the case. With this much space stone, I could smith Dimensional Lock. I should also smith what I need tomorrow."
A big magic circle appears on the floor. Magic materials flew out of his storage space. Edgar started smithing.
Evening passed.
The sun is already high in the sky.
Edgar is floating in the air as he stares at the cave near the top of a tall, stony mountain with many cliffs. He is wearing a white mask. His long red hair and long black coat are swaying. He is wearing a red shirt, black pants, and black shoes. Although they are just clothes and shoes, they are made up of tough materials and advanced rune smithing. There are runes inside of them that cannot be seen outside. They are as tough as armor.
His long black coat helps him fly. There are magic runes inside. Even with long years of research, flight magic is only possible using magic machines or magic equipment like magic capes or the black coat of Edgar. Magicians or aura masters can also fly using their skills, like Edgar, who used his flying sword. He is not capable of controlling his sword concept for a long time, so he has to make a magic black coat to fly.
HWAAAK! An angry sound from a bird came from the cave.
Shoo! Shoo! Fireballs came out of the cave rapidly.
Edgar smiles as he sees the fireballs quickly moving toward him.
