The Legendary Moonlight Sculptor

Volume 54 Chapter 7 - Half Elf Vishur (Part 1)

While Weed was roaming in the southern desert region, the users were busy.

They went through data analysis and adventures in search of the Half Elf Vishur, knowing that any lead would make them famous.

- I am LeBoy, an adventurer. My current location is the Averian Forest, classified under the 10 forbidden territories.

I suspected from the beginning that the forest would be the location of Half Elf Vishur’s whereabouts. There were a few regions that I couldn’t enter back when I scouted Averian, so I came to check on them.

Then, I discovered the maze entrance under a huge tree with five-colored leaves.

I am uncertain if this is Zode, but it is massive and I have yet to figure out the exit.

The new post was responded with great interest of other adventurers.

- I am making my way there now.

- Brother… I shall be there soon.

- At last, new information!

Adventurers moved quickly to the Averian Forest.

The forest was one of the 10 forbidden territories, but it was located on the territory of the old Rasal Kingdom, frequently visited by warriors and adventurers.

The Jigolaths, Grapass, and Desert of Tranquility were cleared by Weed, and the forbidden territories were setting other adventurers into crazed ambition.

Posts continued for 3 consecutive days.

- I am inside the maze under the tree of five-coloured leaves. This place is very strange. The area is vast and the traps are high-class made of lumber. Unfortunately, almost all of the adventurers that I came with are dead.

- There are engravings of some sort on the walls. I thought them to be traps… But, they are vivid and beautiful. They seem to have been engraved with a sword.

- This is Haruna. There is a citrus scent that is barely noticeable unless you are an elf. It seems to lead to a path, but there are many monsters and traps. I’m pretty certain that an elf passed through this area.

- Adventurer Chase. I am reporting my findings for the last 2 days. The dungeon seems to be divided into 3 sections. Each section seems to be designed with distinct tracks that leads to the exit… So far, I found the exit to the first section.

Over a thousand famous adventurers in Royal Road made their way inside the maze. Weed was able to collect information while roaming the deserts, and meanwhile there continued to be reports of other mazes.

However, these mazes were cleared within 2 days or were found to be unrelated to Half Elf Vishur.

“As of now, the maze of the Averian Forest is most suspicious.”

Weed rode his camel to the east desert and arrived at the Altar of the Sun.

The Sun Fragment only grew hotter as he travelled through the barren sand hills until he reached a place where the land split apart like a fissure.

*Swaaaash!*

The desert split, revealing an altar with pure white pillars and stones.

The Fragment of the Sun and the altar were emitting light in unison.

*Blink!*

[ Great Discovery!

You are the first to discover the hidden relic of the desert, the Altar of the Sun.

This is a site of the warrior raised above the location where the intense heat of the sun dwells. There exists a legend that tells of the most outstanding desert warrior that goes through a ritual and obtains the power of the sun.

- Reputation increased by 5,550 from the adventure.

- You have gained a level.

- You discovered a hidden historical site. Unique experience grants 3 additional points of strength and agility.

- Reporting precious findings will result in additional rewards. ]

Altar of the Sun.

The sun was high up above the sky, and the sands around the altar were set aflame.

There were red, round boulders placed on the altar, each surrounded by warrior sculptures as if they were standing guard.

The sculptures had been chipped away by the winds and sand, barely retaining their forms.

[ The warrior who seeks the power of the sun. Stab through this boulder with your sword. ]

“I have come this far, and this better not be a trap.”

Weed examined the surroundings with great detail.

It was better safe than sorry!

The old altar seemed to be legitimate and the Sun Fragment reacted.

Moreover, the sculptures certainly had weathered away with time.

“Identify!”

[ A piece crafted long ago in unknown times.

It is instilled with the power of the sun.

It requires restoration due to damage by natural causes.

A treasure of the desert.

Artistic worth: 3,610 ]

“Alright. This is the real deal. Just to be safe though…”

Weed, prepared to escape at any time, pulled out the Loa Sword and stabbed through the boulder.

At that very moment!

The sun radiated blinding light and the fiery sands retreated in all directions.

With the altar in the center, flourishing light pillars took form, connecting the sky and the earth.

***

The scene of Weed advancing into the Warrior of the Sun was being broadcasted live through the broadcast stations.

- That’s crazy.

- Wow… I wonder what job class he is doing all that for?

- Isn’t it for the Warrior of the Sun? The job that is only bestowed to one person.

- Seems like it. Given the content of the quest and all…

The discussion boards of the broadcast stations were being bombarded.

The live chat rooms between viewers were raging.

- It looks like he’s trying to obtain the job that he had before. He has experience in it too.

- It may be his return to the days of the Great King of the Desert.

- Back then, he conquered the Central Continent in the era of war. I wonder what he’s going to conquer now?

- He wiped out just about all the opposing factions. All that is left is Kaybern.

- There are still some remnants of the Hermes guild. Seems like people forgot about them.

- I am looking forward to the war against the Black Dragon. At first I thought that we had no chance… but now, doesn’t he have a decent shot?

- As a person who converted jobs a lot… A job class change doesn’t make you extremely powerful. For the moment, you can’t do a decent job in anything.

- Sculptor Master, High Necromancer, Warrior of the Sun. This guy is truly walking the Royal Road.

- If he’s walking the Royal Road he must be near its end.

- As expected of Weed.

- I bet Bard Ray is going mad just watching this.

Bard Ray stood by the shoreline village in the Northern Continent for the Ironblood Warrior job class. He was diligently carrying out quests.

[ Gather the clam shells. ]

[ The mystery of the pearl. ]

[ The red conch. ]

[ Fishing memories. ]

‘What kind of quests are these?’

He had carried out many combat quests, but such miscellaneous errands were too particular and difficult for him.

“Human. I cut contact with the humans for ages. Ar-pen Empire? Is that a kingdom raised by humans?”

The Barbarians knew nothing about the Haven Empire nor the Arpen Empire.

The village was isolated, rendering Bard Ray’s reputation useless. He hurriedly called for adventurer Lantos from the Hermes Guild.

“Don’t worry. I will show you what an expert adventurer is capable of.”

Lantos was a user that trained under the ambitious support of the Hermes Guild.

The Hermes Guild was specialized in conquer and combat, but there were countless mystical existences laying dormant in the Central Continent.

Lantos was the best pick especially in excavating treasure or equipment.

“Do you have a knack for fishing? You have to catch the fish with yellow gills and blue scales.”

“For sure. I picked up a bit.”

“What’s the skill level?”

Lantos responded while scratching his cheek.

“Intermediate level 3. As you know, fishing is not an essential skill for an adventurer. Fishing is for fishermen and navigators that like to enjoy their time in relaxation.”

Adventurers were roamers of the continent.

Users like Chase and Spenson reached advanced levels on fishing. At a spectacular view, they sat idle and cast their fishing rods, easing away the tenseness from the adventure.

Lantos was also an adventurer, but he was an expert of search, excavation and trap disposal.

“Leave it to me. I will tell you what real adventures are like.”

They cast their lines for 3 straight days and managed to complete the quest.

The Barbarian amazon baked the fish in the bonfire as soon as she received them.

“That took quite the time. I don’t know if I’ll be able to recollect the taste from before.”

Sizzle-sizzle.

The fish was well on its way.

Bard Ray and Lantos blankly stared at the cooking fish.

If it was Weed, he would have sat beside her, humorously asking what the taste was like.

He would go the extra mile, offer his salt for cooking, disguising the plain, cheap salt as an expensive, special salt, only to retroactively charge her 200 gold for its use.

They spent two more days doing four quests, raising the friendliness to receive their next quest.

“If you’re a warrior, you have to experience difficult battles. Can you go to Romdal Island and defeat the monsters in the area?”

“That’s easy for me.”

Bard Ray received the quest with a calm tone.

‘The Ironblood Warrior appeared several times in history. They say he withstood against several dozen thousands of enemies.’

Bard Ray already mastered the Dark Knight and collected various secret sword techniques. He had confidence in his own skills.

‘I have enough offense. If I focus on defense, not one user will be able to defeat me. Weed is not my rival in a face-off battle. My ultimate goal will be to withstand the dragon.’

***

Weed moved to the Central Continent after advancing into the Warrior of the Sun.

His physical abilities and growth rate were reinforced when roaming in the desert, but he was too busy to stay in one region.

He also picked up ultimate skills such as the Blade of Demise, and the skill had such destructive power that other secret sword skills could not be compared.

[ You have entered an unknown dungeon.

This is the dungeon under the tree in Averian Forest.

The secrets of this place haven’t been revealed yet. Therefore, you must be careful.

Roaming around lost will lead to abrupt dangers.]

An unknown dungeon!

He arrived in expectation of finding Half Elf Vishur’s tracks.

A long-ear female user was waiting as he walked through the entrance.

“I’m Haruna. Nice to meet you. Weed-nim.”

“Yes. The pleasure is mine.”

“We adventurers uncovered half of the dungeon. I will lead you as far as I can.”

“Thanks.”

Dirt and tree roots covered the walls.

The dark cave was lit by bright crystal spheres set up on the ceilings and walls by the adventurers.

Haruna walked softly with the tip of her toes, but she was fast, being an elf.

“It’s such an honor for me that you are here.”

“I appreciate your assistance.”

“We can pass through the first section in about 25-minute walk. The tree roots shift after a certain time, so we must hurry while the path is open.”

“I am alright with walking faster.”

The majority of Elf users were beautiful.

Based on her real-life looks, she had a lean figure with clear skin.

Even so, he treated Haruna like she was a rock.

He saw Seoyoon day and night, so no other women felt attractive to him.

‘I don’t know if my sister can even hope of getting married…’

Yurin’s appearance made him worry about her future!

As they walked along, they encountered the other adventurers.

“Weed-nim! I’m Dante.”

“It’s been so long.”

“Haha. It’s so great that we get to venture together.”

He came across the adventurers in the maze and moved along with them.

Dante was envied and also was treated with jealousy just for having connections with Weed.

Having countless achievements in the Versailles Continent under his belt and rising to be the Emperor of the Arpen Empire put Weed’s reputation on a new level.
