Realm of Myths and Legends



Somewhere in the Mortal Realm...

An undetectable ripple appeared in space as Izroth emerged out of seemingly nowhere.

System Alert: You have entered into the seventh kingdom, «Malentansium»>!

[System Alert: Warning, the kingdom <<Malentansium»> you have crossed into is hostile territory!

'Oh? I actually managed to make it back to one of the seven kingdoms. That saves me a lot of trouble. It was more demanding to control than I anticipated. Is it because I activated it from The Void?'

Izroth successfully used the Void Turning ability attached to his Boundless Emperor Void Perfection and safely arrived in the Mortal Realm.

However, upon using Void Turning, Izroth found that his senses were overwhelmed by all the possible points he could instantly travel to. After all, The Void was connected to everything under the firmament.

It took a while for him to sift through the abundance of information and find a point that led him to somewhere in the Mortal Realm.

Izroth's initial hope was merely that he would arrive anywhere in the Mortal Realm remotely close to one of the seven kingdoms. But, to his surprise, he actually managed to land in Malentansium!

'It should be easier to pinpoint an exact location using Void Turning while I'm outside of The Void. But, as I thought, traveling to and from The Void at my current skill level won't be easy.'

The Void was filled with chaos unlike any other and remained unconstant. Attempting to use Void Turning to travel to and from The Void was akin to swimming against a strong current that constantly changed directions in the middle of an ever-expanding sea. If it were any player but Izroth, they would have been swept away to some place random by such an overwhelming force.

Izroth furrowed his brows. He immediately felt that something was off.

'My connection to Empyrean and Selene should have been restored the moment I crossed over into the Mortal Realm; however, I can't sense either one of them.'

Since Empyrean was Izroth's Soul Avatar, regardless of distance, their souls were always connected. Unless it was special circumstances such as being trapped in a location like The Void, Izroth should have been able to sense his presence.

As for Selene, she was a spirit contracted to Izroth through Soul Link. This meant that his connection to Selene was no worse than the one he had with Empyrean.

'I instructed Empyrean to prioritize their safety above all else. Could something have happened to them while I was gone?'

Izroth checked through his alerts and did not see anything that would indicate that Empyrean or Selene had perished. But, it was possible that they had encountered an unknown danger.

'Even a being at the peak of the legendary realm would find it challenging to stop Empyrean from escaping if he wanted to. Then, did they enter an area that's capable of interfering with Soul Link?'

The last time Izroth sensed their presence before being caught up in the chaos at the Night Lord's Crypt, Empyrean and Selene were located somewhere in Amaharpe.

'I'm sure they're fine, but... Just in case, I should check their last known whereabouts.'

As Izroth organized his thoughts, he was bombarded by a stream of messages and system alerts the instant he left The Void.

Many of the messages were sent over the course of the week in-game he spent out of reach of communications, while some were from almost the exact moment that he crossed out of The

Void.

Out of the system alerts, there was one in particular that caught his eye.

'I planned on contacting them right now. It seems they were one step faster than me.'

[System Alert: Player Niflheim has requested a voice chat![]

System Alert: Do you wish to accept the incoming voice chat from Player Niflheim?

At the moment, there was nothing Izroth lacked more than information. To be more precise, the fate of the allied forces after he prevented the resurrection of Night Lord Zarolas. Not to mention the current status and whereabouts of the 9th Division that was under his command.

There was also the matter of whether or not Halls and Guan Yu were able to make it back to the Mortal Realm or not.

'Even if it's risky at my current strength, if those two truly have been trapped in The Void, I will do what's necessary to make sure they're able to return safely.'

Without hesitation, Izroth accepted the voice chat from Niflheim.

[System Alert: You have started a voice chat with Player Niflheim! To end the voice chat at any time, simply say "Terminate Voice Chat" or open up the player system interface and manually end the call.

Niflheim, "You really were too reckless this time, Captain. Disappear for more than two days without a word—I was starting to get somewhat anxious."

Izroth, "I could only do so because I have such reliable people under my command. The 9th Division?"

Niflheim, "Safe and sound. After the events that occurred at the Night Lord's Crypt, we retreated back behind Amaharpe's border. We're currently stationed in Danaharpe. Ah, and before you ask, those two are safe as well. It was a real headache trying to convince those stubborn guys to leave the Night Lord's Crypt when you were nowhere to be found. You have some trustworthy brothers. I guess it makes sense when you all share that same reckless trait of diving into danger head first."

Izroth's face became carefree. He was relieved that Halls and Guan Yu had safely returned to the Mortal Realm. With that, one of his largest concerns had vanished.

Izroth, "As long as everyone's safe, then I'm at ease. Why have you moved the 9th Division to Danaharpe?"

Danaharpe was known as the city of craftsmen. If one wanted to advance further in their profession in Amaharpe, paying a visit to Danaharpe was an absolute must.

Niflheim, "It's a long story. But, to summarize it, it's where we were ordered to go."

Izroth, "Ordered?"

Even a High General could not order around those of the General Support Unit. After all, they were given the freedom to act freely and did not have to follow orders from any other war branch. This also included other Captains of the GSU.

Izroth knew that this was something Niflheim must have been aware this fact. If that were the case, there was only one individual that came to Izroth's mind who could give orders to the

GSU.

The current Head of the General Support Unit, Commander Seraphina.

Although she was given the rank of Commander, it could only be considered honorary. In truth, Izroth realized that her power far surpassed that of a Commander and that she was no

ordinary person.

'For that unbothered person who avoids responsibility like a plague to make a move-did Commander Aurie's message get through? Still, why Danaharpe?'

According to Izroth's knowledge, there should be no major or important objectives located near Danaharpe. Of course, a lot could change in a week.

'I suppose this works out well. I have been meaning to pay a visit to Danaharpe for a while now. I can use this opportunity to progress beyond that of a Grade-Three Apothecary.' Izroth's skills have long since surpassed that of a Grade-Three Apothecary. However, the Apothecary Guild in the capital city of Amaharpe only allowed players to progress up to that of a Grade-Three Apothecary. If one wanted to go further than that, one had no choice but to visit a city like Danaharpe with a more advanced and developed Apothecary Guild. Niflheim, "We received the orders from the Head of the General Support Unit a couple of days after we departed from the Night Lord's Crypt. We've been stationed here ever since." Izroth, "If you've received orders from that person, it must be for a good reason. The 9th Division performed well during the attack on the Night Lord's Crypt. I'll be sure to prepare the proper rewards for their efforts. I would also like for you and Menerva to recommend any individuals who stood out so that I can arrange a more suitable reward."

Niflheim, "We'll see to it. You know, I have to admit, after everything that happened that day, this has been a much-needed resting period for the 9th Division."

Izroth, "Oh? Were there some unexpected bumps along the way?"

Niflheim, "That doesn't even begin to describe it. A lot has happened since you've been away. It'll take some time to explain."

Izroth, "That's fine. I have nothing but time. Right now, I'm somewhere in Malentansium. After I make a quick stop at a certain location in Amaharpe, I will head directly to Danaharpe."

Niflheim, "Then, I'll get right to it. While Amaharpe and its allied forces were attacking the Night Lord's Crypt, the neutral second kingdom, O'Tohelm, finally decided to make their move. They launched a surprise attack-aimed at Amaharpe." Izroth narrowed his eyes when Niflheim delivered that piece of information.
