Chapter 69: 69：Unproductive

The hooded figure, wearing white robes, rushed towards the Outer Aria slums.

F-Rank Mission

Hunt the wolf beast that is around LVL 5 and has been attacking lone humans in the slums

Reward - 420 Spirit Coins

Requester - Weston Family

It was the same family that had requested the first mission and from what he could see is that the beasts were of similar origins, which solidified the theory of there being a beast abode in the Outer Aria slums.

The extreme poverty that Lex saw was disturbing, but he had no choice but to turn a blind eye and from what he had learned it was impossible for him to fix the entire world.

Where there are humans, there will be inequality, war and destruction. Driven by their greed and insatiable desire, humanity is untameable.

Lex felt that the orphanage he was looking after would be his retribution and as long as he was helping the orphanage and not adding to the world's problems, he would be able to keep a clear consciousness without guilt.

While searching for the beast in the densely populated and rustically designed slums, Lex was conversing with the system.

[System although I feel that the Originator Eye Demon is still affecting the way I think, I can't feel him like Ashura and I don't seem able to communicate with it]

{Ding, due to abruptly fusing with your soul, despite it being a semi-separate consciousness, it has been placed into a dormant state.

This dormant state can be broken by a sudden outburst of emotional balance or evil and negative energy within your body, possibly from the ring you have} states the system.

Lex felt that for the moment it was best for him to be dormant, but in the future, he would need to confront the Originator Eye Demon as a part of his soul now.

[What does it mean that he is a semi-separate consciousness] asks Lex.

{Ding, this knowledge is too profound for the host to unlock, please focus on the present and do not ask questions to profound for you to understand} replies the system.

From the word itself, Lex could infer the rough meaning of the word, but for the system to withhold the information, it must have a deeper story to it than the word itself.

The more he knew, the less he knew. The more he understood about the world and himself, the less he realised he knew altogether and he felt he was digging himself into a deeper hole.

Lex noted it as something else he didn't know about his self, but like the system told him and he had decided previously, he should focus on the present.

Scouring the slums for a few hours, Lex still hadn't found any beasts in the area and had drained himself massively.

Stopping to catch his breath, Lex sat down and began to circulate the small amount of energy and began to absorb energy to begin to recover.

[System take out The Mental Void Method]

A large, thick black book appeared in his hands.

{Ding, Do you wish to learn The Mental Void Method Yes / No}

"No" replies Lex as he returns the book into his inventory.

Last time Lex learnt a cultivation method he was unconscious for over a week and he didn't have the time to waste with the mission to become an E-Rank Voltac in 14 days and decided he would learn the method and spend more time on strength after he completes the mission.

[I am going to be looking for these beasts I might as well accept the rest of the beast hunting missions in the slums and do them all at the same time] he thought.

Withdrawing his Voltiac Identification, he could feel a connection with a Voltiac Base nearby and headed towards it.

After running for a few hours and circulating his energy, Lex's body was also strengthening along the way and after defeating a lot of beasts he can use their beast cores and it will also strengthen his body because of the system not allowing any of the energy to dissipate.

Reaching the Voltac Base, it seemed to be identical to the previous one in every way, as he entered the large entrance.

"Ashura welcome back, you have completed two out of your three missions, are you back to take more missions or to check out our Voltiac Library" states the woman at the front desk.

"That is correct" replies Lex calmly as he heads towards the mission board, trying to act calm and suppress his shock that she knew who he was before he entered.

Walking up to the board, he could see missions he recognised from the other base, but there were more missions based on the slums, which was the area it was in.

[The Voltiac Guild is so influential that it can rival a kingdom, yet they still have bases in the slums. Also so many things about the guild that I don't understand and know] he thought to himself.

Lex took in another 7 F-Rank hunter missions that were situated in the slums and they all seemed to be of a similar breed.

Taking them to the front he received half the money, which he put in his inventory, and had a deadline for the missions to be completed in a week.

Lex hated the attention he was receiving from all those who sat in the base and were conversing and relaxing and was being carefully watched by the woman at the front.

All the missions came from the same family, the Weston Family. Lex was curious about what kind of family could afford to request so many missions from the Voltiac Guild, but still care about the slums.

He felt that his entire day hadn't been productive and he had been running around all day and hadn't accomplished anything.

The memory of Angela's death rushed into his mind and the thought of Ella being abused by Jaydan and or being hunted made him not want to waste any time in this reality with all the opportunities he was given.

[Instead of looking for the beasts during the day and being unproductive, I can spend the rest of the day in the Voltac Base Library] decides Lex.
