60 Chapter 60: Elsa's Training
Opening my eyes, I am surprised. The little house disappeared, the table, the orb, and the gentleman; everything vanished, as if it were all a simple illusion and nothing had been real.
Looking at Elsa, she is as surprised as I am, mouth wide open, looking around in astonishment.
"What the hell just happened?" she asks confused.
"I have no idea, i had my eyes closed, unlike you who had them open."
"I-I just blinked, and everything disappeared just like that," she says with a slight fear.
Closing my eyes, I send mana throughout my body, checking if anything is wrong, but I find nothing out of place.
This, without a doubt, is very strange, but it is also curious. According to her words, my future is shit in a nutshell... Considering that most transmigrators always have a hard time in every story, it's not surprising that I suffer the same fate. Sighing to myself, I get up from the chair, the only object that didn't disappear and is clear evidence that nothing was an illusion.
I just can't understand what happened. Looking at Elsa, who is still astonished, I say with a smile.
"Look on the bright side, we weren't scammed because he didn't even take the silver coin."
"Is that all you're going to say about what just happened?" she looks at me in disbelief.
Shrugging, "Because there's no point in wracking your brain over things you can't comprehend. Besides, we're both unharmed, so you could say we're safe."
"Y-you're right, no, wait, I feel like I'm becoming like you, careless," Elsa says squinting her eyes and looking at me directly.
"Hehehe, well, who's hungry?"
"We just ate a few minutes ago," her gaze becomes more intense.
I cough a little embarrassed. "Alright, let's continue on our way to the guild." With quick steps, I move away from Elsa.
Upon reaching the imposing building, in front of the massive open doors is the same girl with red hair and black eyes, very long legs, and extremely sexy, Venice.
"Welcome back, dear adventurers. It's a pleasure for me to have you again in our guild."
With a friendly greeting, she welcomes us.
"Thank you for having us," I reply in the same tone as her.
"Follow me, please." Walking again in front of us, my gaze wants to automatically go to that place, but I feel a pair of piercing blue eyes staring directly at my gaze.
Feeling that my life was at an indescribable risk, I decide not to challenge death. Fixing my gaze on a single point in front of me, we follow Venice.
Upon reaching a point where there were only the three of us.
"What do you want?" Venice asks.
"I would like to know if I can rent a room for personal training," I reply.
"Hmmm, I see, I see. Of course, we have such facilities. For high-ranking hunters, it's free, but not for you. You must pay a usage fee. Do you want two separate rooms?"
"No, not at all. We only need one," I reply calmly.
"Alright. For a day, the usage fee would be a total of 1 gold. In each room, you can find all kinds of weapons, practice dummies, and the walls are very resistant to all types of attacks."
Nodding in understanding, I hand her the gold coin. Again, she guides us to another room and, handing me a card, she leaves the place.
Looking at the card closely, I can feel mana inside it. Placing the card on the door, it opens quickly. The interior was white; at the ends, there was a section where you could find all kinds of weapons: swords, daggers, spears, hammers, katanas, halberds, etc.
Apparently, she didn't lie when she said there were all kinds of weapons. It was about 25 meters long and wide, being a perfect space for training. Nodding with satisfaction, I look at Elsa and smile. She was wearing flexible and comfortable clothing to train without problems or discomfort.
"Run until you can't anymore," I tell her directly.
"You can't be serious," she looks at me in doubt.
"I am. Run."
Looking at me with judgmental eyes, she starts running.
Still standing in the same place, I watch Elsa start running throughout the establishment.
"How are the 2 people I assigned to you?" asks guild leader Alex de la Cruz.
Venice, sitting in front of him, calmly responds: "Pretty good, right now they are training in one of the private rooms."
Alex, raising an eyebrow skeptically, asks, "He killed the anomaly, didn't he?"
"Indeed, it was him. I have to say it was amazing," comments Venice.
"What's your opinion of him?" says Alex.
"Hmmm, if I have to say, it's interesting. I had a completely different image of him, but seeing it with my own eyes, I have to admit that I was wrong. Although he is a bit perverted, every time I turn around, I feel his look at my butt."
Cough...cough, "Well, it can't be helped, I suppose. He's a full-fledged adult," says Alex uncomfortably and with a hint of anger in his voice.
"But father, I have a question. Why do you want him watched?" Venice asks.
"You wanted something interesting at home; you always complained that you were bored. Besides, I feel that this boy is very peculiar. For some reason, he sparked my interest," says Alex.
Venice squinting her eyes, looks at her father. "What do you mean?"
Alex, amused by his daughter's reaction, responds: "Exactly what I say. He's interesting, considering he's with the second princess of the House of Snow. He took her to the forest knowing that she can't be of much use."
"Elsa's father will definitely not leave his daughter in this place without protection. So, in some way, you managed to convince him, right?"
"As expected of my daughter, you're right. I always keep an eye on them, although apparently it won't be necessary; they are very capable. I'm very curious about how things will evolve."
Venice, with a finger on her lips, says, "Do you think they can figure out who I am with my disguise?"
"No, not at all. As long as we don't take off our disguises, no one will know our true identities," Alex confidently replies.
"By the way, what happened to the sacrifice case?" Venice asks with interest.
"As you know, it's classified information, but I can only tell you that the same case has happened 4 more times. Of course, they all have different patterns; they are sacrifices from other cults."
"Tsk, crazy bastards," comments Venice with disgust.
Alex sighs. "There's nothing that can be done, as long as their gods are still alive, they will continue with these atrocious acts. 5 of the 7 cults belonging to the ancient creatures have appeared. The cults belonging to the 7 sins have not made any moves yet."
Venice frowns. "They've been inactive for almost 2 decades."
"Don't worry about these things, better focus on the Imperial Academy starting in 5 months," Alex says, looking at his daughter tenderly.
"You're right, father. Then I bid you farewell."

After Venice leaves the place, 4 shadows emerge from the darkness.
"Did you locate the sites where the 4 rituals took place?"
"Yes, sir," the shadows respond in unison.
"The corresponding rituals were performed in the same area 5, but very far apart. If the 5 sects performed in the same place, we suspect the other 2 will do the same."
Alex, deep in thought, says, "Area 5 remains extremely dangerous. Missions related to that area are deactivated for platinum ranks and below. Emerald ranks will be allowed to go if they have at least a diamond rank in their group. Place purge missions in the guild; each group heading to area 5 will carry a communication scroll.
"Yes." The 4 shadows quickly disappear from the place.
Alex, sitting in his seat with his hands on his desk, sighs. "There's a lot to do," closing his eyes, he disappears from the chair he was sitting on, and the office falls into total sepulchral silence.

Elsa is in a very sorry state, breathing heavily. Her chest rises and falls very quickly; the color of her face is clearly pale and tired.
"Is that all you've got?" I ask with a mocking smile.
"I s-swear... I'll kill you someday," Elsa responds with difficulty.
"How rude of you. I'm trying to help you, you know?" The smile on my face gets bigger.
"No! You're intimidating me right now. Give me water, I'm dying of thirst."
Taking the bottle from my ring, I hand it to Elsa.
Taking the bottle with trembling hands, she brings it straight to her mouth, drinking eagerly. After a few more minutes, it seems she's satisfied.
Handing me the bottle again, I store it in my ring.
"Rest a little more; then we'll continue with your training," I say calmly.
Elsa's expression becomes very somber; her eyes have a slight bloodthirst, she was looking directly at me, but I act as if I don't notice.
"Don't kill me, please," I think internally.
