Chapter 21: He Deserved It

Eh?!

The heck?!

Arisu Hanz, King Luke's daughter, was successful in cutting the violet crystal positioned on the monster's chest. And those were the words of Cuifer, the first-tactician who didn't believe in their plan.

Boom!

Another explosion occurred, but it was not what Arisu had anticipated. It was just the stone explosion as the mana power burst out and you could see the glittering crystal falling all over the area.

"We won?" Arisu thought to herself as she saw the monster lying lifeless on the brown surface.

Guards were looking at each other, not expecting lady Arisu to win this fight in an instant.

We were victorious!

Yuhoooo!

This is why I never stopped praising lady Arisu.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Those guards were making a lot of noise with their swords and shields, celebrating their victory. As this was the fastest monster they had ever killed.

Cuifer slack-jawed, dumbfounded by the woman who slowly reclaimed her sword. "How come that outsider plan works?!"

Cuifer would have a difficult time evicting that man from the Arzotoc village at this point. Why? Because Riku already achieved something after meeting the king.

We can't do it unless our tactician, Majesty Cuifer, devises a brilliant plan!

Yes, you are correct! Majesty Cuifer never failed to surprise us!

I completely agree! Majesty Cuifer had the ability to turn the impossible into a reality.

Guards' thought it was Cuifer's concrete plan, and he just used the outsider so it would die quickly.

The guards' celebration came to a halt when Arisu raised her hand and looked around for someone. Guards knelt on the ground, contemplating the next order that would be given to them.

"Where has Riku gone? I don't see him here-" She paused after being reminded that they needed to seal the hole, just as Riku had said to her. "It doesn't matter; I should concentrate on this problem right now."

There were a few moments. Arisu summoned all warrior-level guards to close the hole left by the Garaga monster as soon as possible. They must not allow the other dangerous monsters to enter Arzotoc village.

Cuifer approached Arisu to check on her condition and to ask her for something. "Are you all right, lady Arisu? Do you need some potions?" he asked politely.

She shook her head gradually. "No, I'm fine; just use it for the guards who were badly injured," she said, still looking around for Riku. "Cuifer, do you happen to know where Riku went?"

To begin with, Cuifer had no intention of giving this expensive potion to those ineffectual guards; he simply pretended to agree with her. Simultaneously, he wrote a new story for Riku. "To be honest, lady Arisu, I didn't see where he went, but I believe he used that hole to escape so he could spread the information about us."

If this were true, the other kingdom or village would be able to easily invade us as that outsider knew how to devise a clever plan.

Arisu couldn't blame Riku for leaving the Arzotoc village after witnessing how the villagers and guards treated him. At the same time, she was certain that man would never mention their village.

"It's not that man's personality," she mumbled.

Cuifer raised his brows since he couldn't understand what she was saying as her voice was too weak. "Please accept my apologies, lady Arisu, but could you repeat what you said?"

"Nothing, Cuifer, just ordered the guards to repair the wall quickly, and I'll go back to the mansion to report our victory to my father," she said sweetly.

Cuifer was bothered by this situation because, aside from Arisu and Riku, only the first commander Albert was aware that the plan was not coming from him. Nonetheless, he was confident in his ability to manipulate that man, so he approached her again to continue to claim victory in this battle.

Before Arisu left, he walked alongside her and said. "Lady Arisu, by any chance, can you tell your father that the plan to kill the Garaga monster came from me?" He had an unsure expression as this lady Arisu had a fifty percent chance of accepting it. He went on to say that he had persuaded her even more. "The outsider has already left; it would be such a shame if no one claimed the achievement."

Arisu now understood why she felt so heavy if she had been with this man. Cuifer appeared to be the one attempting to manipulate her and her father.

She shook her head and looked at it without expression. "I refuse, Cuifer; you're the first tactician, and I'm sure you'll get some credit, but we must give the achievement to the person who thinks about the plan and sacrifices his life to claim our victory; he deserved it, even if he's no longer in our village."

Arisu turned and returned to the mansion, escorted by the other six guards.

Cuifer was obviously irritated by lady Arisu's decision, as the situation was always going to Riku. He clenched his teeth, hoping his fabricated story was correct.

"If I see you again, I'll not hesitate to kill you, outsider," he spits, turning angrily to order the guards.

Come on, let's go! That's the only job you're going to do, and you're all taking so long? Double time! We have only 30 minutes to repair that hole! What good are our large numbers if we can't solve this problem quickly?

Albert simply raised his shoulders as he realized why this middle-aged man was behaving in this manner.

Guards speed up their movements in order to complete this task in the time allotted by Cuifer.

A man, on the other hand, is looking at himself in the mirror inside the small room. Riku was the one with the burnt face and three narrow cuts on his abdomen. It appeared that after he jumped to the mythical beast's head, the blanket covering his face loosened, causing him to realize too late that the claws had touched him.

Since his clothes were also ripped, some blood spilled and burned around the wounds.

"This is difficult if I fight in daylight; one wrong move and I could die," he grumbled.

[HP:65/100]

Riku ripped his blanket once more and stitched it around his stomach to stop the bleeding. After a few seconds, he slammed the desk, and the sound echoed throughout the room as he remembered something important. "Damn, I forgot to apply the [Manifest] skill to that monster."

Knowing how powerful the mythical beast was, he knew that if he copied its gene, it would benefit him.

[Eat food to regain your health power! And eat flesh for a quick recovery! ]

The system presented him with two options, but the second option made him want to vomit. "What is wrong with this system? It wants to turn me into a monster-!" He paused after feeling pain in his stomach.

[No! If you eat fresh flesh and drink blood, the dark crow will give you more power.]

It was disgusting that someone with the right mind would eat any kind of flesh and drink blood in order to recover faster and gain strength. He decided to eat ordinary foods and wait for his health power to return to normal.

"There's no room for me to do that," he said as he went outside to look for a maid to help him. Still, he returned to his room since he remembered that he could only eat something if Lady Arisu ordered the maids to bring it to him. There was also a chance that he could eat for the entire day.

Riku has five major problems: first, he needs to find food, second, he needs to show King Luke his first invention, third, he needs to strengthen himself here so he is an average mutant when he returns to the real world, and fourth, he knows Cuifer will make something bad for him. Finally, the path back to the real world.

Well, Riku must not take to his mind that there was a chance that he could gain the trust of lady Arisu, King Luke, and the villagers.

Meanwhile, after he reclined his back on the concrete wall. A new idea popped inside his head as he already knew how he could train himself here.

"What if I apply to be a guard here? There's a chance that with their training, I can fix the flow of the mana pool," he said solemnly. "I'd also like to track down the guards who tortured me."

Being a guard in this village may have benefited him since all of the guards here had masculine bodies, allowing them to be a good vessel for the gene.

"I'll ask lady Arisu about this," he said, kneading his chin as he realized the idea was also dangerous for him. As soon as the guards saw him, they became enraged. "Hmm.... If we're talking about strength, I admit that the guards here are stronger than me, but they'll never win against me because they don't have any techniques that make them stand out."
