Chapter 116 Stealing Session! Part-2.

Rio got down at the bus stop, and the name 'Foggy Forest: Entrance' was written on a nearby signboard.

Rio ignored the signboard because he already knew about it and directly entered the forest area.

…

(Detail Bombs Ahead)

[Foggy Forest: It is an artificial forest created by humans after the end of the thousand-year demon extinction war, to purify the land and make it eco-friendly again.

The war caused a major deforestation issue at that time, thus the humans used Wood-magic and covered the barren land with forests and plants. These forests were named 'Foggy Forests' because a dense fog surrounds them during winter. (Currently, it's not winter so it's not that foggy right now, but still, the dense mana causes fog in this area, even in the summer season.)

Nowadays, these forests have spread all over the human empire. Aside from the cities and various military camps the rest of the land in the human empire is mainly just forest. Millions of animals and various wildlife creatures exist in these forests. Three big rivers water the forests, the ecosystem is vast and diverse.]

(Yeah, they have already solved the problem of plastic waste in this world. The low-rank awakeners who have no chance to progress further in their lifetime, generally end up joining the plastic cleaning workers, to earn good wages. They have created a proper way to recycle this plastic by using various magical artifacts.) '(^-^)'

(Simple Geography for 5-Year-Olds: The human empire is on the continent named 'Astrum' which is named after the capital city of the human empire 'Astra'.

In the north of the human empire is the snowy mountains where the Orc Kingdom is established.

In the east is a large desert, which is a barren land, only a few ogre and goblin tribes reside there.

In the south is the vast ocean and various port cities. There are many fishing and other large companies doing business here.

In the west is a scorched land, where various active volcanoes are located. A large tribe of Wyverns reside here, this is the place where millions of demons were once slaughtered during the thousand-year demon extinction war.)

…

Rio entered the forest, summoned his sword, and directly jumped on top of it.

He made the sword fly very high in the sky to get a good look at the area around him.

'Let's get started…' (Rio)

Rio brought out the medal that Thomas gave him earlier and put his mana in the medal.

After Rio embedded it with mana, the medal suddenly trembled and its 'A' sign turned into an arrow '^' sign. The medal floated in the air beside Rio and its arrow pointed towards a particular area of the forest.

As you may have already guessed, Fade discovered this by pure luck. He was hunting a bear around this area when he accidentally embedded the medal with mana and it turned into a treasure compass. (I don't know bro, but these lucky things do happen too often to this guy Fade… the luck of these heaven's children is truly overbearing.)

Once the medal started to point in that direction, Rio flew in that direction without any hesitation. The medal floated beside him and led the way for him.

…

After half an hour of flying continuously Rio, arrived at a small hut made out of wood and straw. It was located on the wide branch of a large tree.

Rio flew down and landed in front of the gate of the hut. Rio stretched his hand and took the floating medal. After putting the medal back in his space Ring, Rio directly opened the door of the hut, without even bothering to knock.

When Rio applied a little force and pulled the door, the whole gate broke and separated from the hut, even the side wall was broken off from that little force.

'It got destroyed so easily, no wonder it didn't even withstand a single blow in the novel…' (Rio)

Fade is a protagonist after all, how could he obtain something without quarreling with people or beating the sh*t out of some monsters. When Fade arrived at this place hut, it was inhabited by a group of wild monkeys.

Fade directly used the intermediate rank flame magic and burned the whole pack of monkeys to crisp and the hut also caught fire. (Fade used 'Intermediate' rank magic on some random wild animals, it's like using a missile to butcher a chicken…)

Rio shook his head and went inside the hut. He looked around and found a necklace hanging on a wall. There was also a small piece of paper hanging together with the necklace.

Rio stretched his right hand and took the necklace. Then he looked at the piece of paper and only a few words were written on it.

[May thee bring salvation to the sinful.]

"Hmm, it's a clue left by the owner of the necklace… tch, you should have given 'him' salvation yourself, reckless people…" (Rio) (This will be explained in the later chapters… Just remember that Rio knows who this piece of paper is referring right now… but if he tells you right now, then it would kill the suspense…)

Rio shook his head in annoyance and jumped down the tree.

…

[Item Name: A Maiden's Gift.]

[Item Rank: C-]

[Item Description: This Purple colored necklace was once given by a Poor and sickly father to his lovely daughter, who eventually went on many adventures while wearing this necklace.

The girl fell in love with a comrade of hers and gave this necklace to him as a symbol of their mutual love.]

[Item Effect: Helps the wearer keep a calm and rational mind. (This effect doesn't apply to anyone at the same or higher rank than the artifact.)]

…

Rio looked at the description and sighed.

He knew that the end of this love story was tragic and it ended up causing many regrets. It was a tragic ending to a lovely story.

Rio glanced at the hut.

'This piece of paper must have burnt away in ashes when Fade used the flame magic to destroy everything around here…' (Rio)

This hut was made by a woman under the command of Nicolas. She was good friends with Nicolas and perished in the final fight together with several of her comrades, including Nicolas.

Nicolas wasn't her lover if you are thinking about that. He was just a friend of hers. They fought together on the battlefield. She was an A ranker who served as cannon fodder on the vast battlefield.

In a battlefield where S-rankers and SS-rankers died, A-rankers are just cannon fodders whose only purpose was to keep the other side's A-rankers at bay. Anyone lower than A-rank couldn't even be considered qualified to enter such battlefields.

'Let's put this away first…' (Rio)

Rio put the necklace in his space ring. He then covered his index finger with sword intent, destroyed the piece of paper, and turned it into ash.

'My control over 'Sword Intent' has reached has improved considerably after fighting in the group survival test…' (Rio)

Rio glanced at his watch and it was already afternoon.

'I need to hurry, would be better to finish it before night and return home early…' (Rio)

Rio again used his sword intent and flew in the air by using his sword. After reaching a considerable height Rio brought out the medal again. He imbued it with his mana again.

Rio again used his sword intent and flew in the air by using his sword. After reaching a considerable height Rio brought out This time the arrow symbol pointed in the direction of the deeper forest area. Without hesitation, Rio flew at full speed and headed in the direction that the arrow pointed.

…

After flying for more than an hour, Rio finally saw a dark valley.

'This must be the place…' (Rio)

After reaching the valley, the medal reverted to its original form, and all the mana Rio imbued in it was scattered away. Rio caught the medal before it could fall.

Rio flew down and entered the valley. His mana detection started to look for any irregularities in the area. Although the area was a little dark, Rio didn't mind it much.

Rio flew around the whole valley and eventually, he noticed faint traces of mana fluctuations under a huge stone. If not for the fact that Rio was proficient in his detection skill, it would have been very difficult to notice such small mana fluctuations.

'This must be it…' (Rio)

Rio landed on the ground and held his sword in his hand.

[Elemental Sword Arts: Moon cleaver!]

With one attack from Rio's sword the huge rock split apart in two. The broken pieces of the rock rolled down and a small black colored box appeared in Rio's sight.

Rio took the box and opened it. A scroll was placed inside the box. Rio destroyed the box with his sword intent and put the scroll in his space ring.

'Good, now I have gathered all the necessary items…' (Rio)

Rio called his sword and flew out of the valley…

1.Wings (Practical and elegant…)

2.Flying sword. (You would need to learn sword intent for it, but it is indeed worth the effort.)

3.Wind magic (Wind mages can fly in the air without much effort. It consumes a lot of mana if you are low in rank, though.)
