Chapter 58: Receiving sword skill
""The personals of the stronghold had requested for Alina's and Lara's presence. I'm here to lead them there. Where are they?" Addison asked.
He was in the guest room of the house that was allocated to Marvin and the two beauties to use until they are clear of all suspicions.
"They are still sleeping, I will go wake up them. Before I go, can you tell me about my situation? Can I use the teleporter to return home or do I still have to wait?" Marvin asked hurriedly.
It's been days since he has gone out and he wanted to return home already!
"Luckily, there's no need to wait. We talked with the support specialist of the adventure association and he certified that you were in a prolonged teleportation accident. You are clear of all suspicions. And, you also got awarded with no tax for three runs." Addison said before handing over three tickets to Marvin.
What happy news! By using one of the three tickets, he could use adventure association teleporters to go to the wilderness yet still evade 100% of the tax. This way, he wouldn't need to hide things in his inventory to smuggle them inside the fortress.
"Thanks but Sir, can you tell me why security here's so strict. Fortress connected to green portals don't have such strict security,"
Marvin gladly accepted the tickets without much remorse and asked a question that has been bugging him. It was the adventure association teleporter's fault that landed him in an unknown and dangerous place. So them facing a Lil financial loss wasn't something to feel better. If Marvin wasn't strong, he could have died, after all; however, he still felt grateful.
"Well, you see..." Addison explained to him about Red Portals.
The Red portals were connected to wilderness where Demons and colossal magical beasts have been sighted. In more specific words, these types of wilderness had gateways to other worlds. These were the worst type of wilderness on Earth, and only powerful factions, military squads, and ability users at the mana channels opening rank or above would dare to explore this wilderness for weakling will die without knowing why, and not many dares to explore these places without a group.
As for why they explore these places, it is because the treasures were abundant in such wilderness that have a massive density of Magic power, and the treasure there benefits humanity as a whole. For example, there can an Elemental-type mine in that place from which thousands of elemental crystals can be mined.
Elemental crystals and beast core shared the same property but elemental crystals were ten times more pure and better for human and demon constitution.
But there's a huge chance to run into demons and slave traders in these places. After all, the demons had the same teleportation technology as the humans so it wouldn't be too strange to run into them, and a bloody battle is bound to ensure when human and demon meets. While slave traders are looking to make a huge profit in danger. That's why encountering them was common.
The above is also the reason why everyone forms a group before venturing into the wilderness.
From talking with Addison, Marvin found out that the rank above rank-10 was called mana-channels opening rank.
"Your privilege level is low so you won't be able to use red portals until you upgrade your privilege level. Young man, we might meet each other after a long time. I hope you make your father proud," Addison said after explaining about red portals to him.
"You know my father?" Marvin asked.
"Yes, he was a person I looked up to." Addison replied while staring at the skies then he looked at Marvin in the skies, and continued by saying, "I can't say much more. You aren't privy to such information."
From what Marvin knows, his father was a military personnel but he didn't know his actual rank or anything. However, he believed he was just a common foot soldier otherwise they would have been financially well off. But now the way Addison was acting made him feel like there's more to it than what his father showed.
There were many experts residing in this fortress and powerful ability users came and went to complete missions or purchase necessities and useful items. There were various shops established in this fortress, too.
The only difference between the people residing in this fostress and Marvin's group was the fact that each of them had a privilege tier above 4 while Marvin's and Lara's privilege was 1. Whereas Alina's didn't even have a student ID card. Her privilege level was 0.
Privilege level was hindering from accessing a lot of information or obtaining items.
"When I become strong and upgrade my privilege level, I will find out the truth about him," he internally thought.
"Well, then I will go wake them up," Marvin said and turned around to enter the house.
"Ah, wait!" Addison stopped him. He kindly continued, "Let them sleep and rest. They must be tired. Anyway, it isn't an urgent matter. I will drop by tomorrow morning to get their slave collars taken off."
He has seen many cases of beautiful men and women alike being kidnapped by slave traders and forced into inexplicable things. He hated the slave trader. At the same time, he pities the victim of the unjust act. Lara and Alina were one of the many victims. That's why he was being considerate
"Sure!" Marvin replied with a smile and walked inside.

"Good morning, my sunshine," the next day, Marvin woke them up after preparing breakfast for them.
He felt like doing something for them and so he prepared a delicious and scrumptious breakfast.
"Morning," Lara said and planted a kiss on his cheeks.
"You smell so nice, alpha," Wolf Girl hugged him and breathed in his scent.
She loved his scent! It was warm and provided her with a sense of relief. Being around him made her feel like she was in a haven and that calmed her nerves.
Feeling her soft body pressing against his, he wanted to show her what else's nice about him but Lara chimed in from the side.
"You're thinking of doing something perverted with us, again, aren't you? Handsome devil, today don't even think about it. We are already so exhausted. I prohibit you from touching us sexually today!" She warned with a strict look.
"I wasn't thinking about that. Do you think I am a sex maniac?" Marvin smiled.
Lara rolled her eyes at him as if saying, 'If you aren't a sex maniac then I am not a girl!'
"What do you think Wolf Girl?" They both asked Alina at the same time.
"Alpha is a pervert, no denying it. And... Uh, I'm fine with Alpha doing perverted things with me. But his icecream is bitter and I want to eat a sweet one!" Alina gave her innocent and honest reply.
Lara didn't let go of this chance and said,
"See. Even Wolf girl says you are a pervert!"
"In my defense, I really decided against that. After all, if I initiate nighttime activities then the food I cooked with good intent will become cold and go to waste. I don't want that, now did I? Come have breakfast with me," Marvin controlled his sexual urges and invited them to the table on which various dishes were placed.
"So tasty!" Wolf Girl's mouth watered when the aroma of the food entered her nostril.
Guru Guru! Lara's stomach grumbled. She felt hungry as the last thing she ate was Marvin's manhood.
They sat down and began to eat.
"How's it?" Marvin asked.
"This is great!" Lara praised his culinary skill after taking a bite. "The egg melted in my mouth and its yolk streamed down my throat like a waterfall. What a wonderful taste it is, fufu!"
Hearing her words, he was happy to know that she liked it.
Grr! Grr!" While Wolf Girl was busy stuffing her mouth with the food as if there's no tomorrow.
Looking at her, he couldn't help but get worried. "Eat slowly or you might cho–"
Just as was gonna say choke on the food, she choked!
"Cough Cough Cough!"
Marvin sprang up to his feet and patted her softback to help her relax and swallow the food. While Lara helped her drink some water.
"Are you fine?" Marvin and Lara asked worriedly after the food stuck in her throat dropped on her stomach
"Yes, thanks for the help," Wolf Girl replied gently, and then her furry ears dropped low and she just stared at the food like a guilty child, and she continued by saying, "I'm sorry for my reckless action,"
"Don't be. Just eat slowly now," Marvin kindly told her.
In the middle of the meal, Addison dropped by to take them to the personnel with inscriptionist profession.
"We'll be going." They said before leaving.
"Take care!" Marvin shouted as they left his vision.
Before afternoon, Alina and Lara were called by the guards serving one of the inscriptionists of the flame Hell fortress.
"You both will have to undergo some security check before allowing entry into Miss Fizast room. I hope you don't mind."
The guards were merely performing their duties. They had to scan their bodies in search of a weapon and detect whether they are demons in disguise or have a demon seed in their body.
If they have any weapons then they won't be allowed entry into the place they bring taken to. If they are detected to be demons then they will be executed instantly. If they have a demon seed in their body then they will be captured and put up for trial. If they are proved to be innocent then they will undergo purification to remove the demon seed.
Lara and Alina once again underwent identity verification and a full-body scan before entering Fizast, the inscriptionist room.
The scanner didn't beep as it didn't find any weapon hidden in their clothes. After that, they were taken to the military personnel that was fairly good as an inscriptionist. However, she was known to have extreme like towards wolf girls.
When they entered the room, they saw a beautiful woman brimming with youthful energy. She was short and could be described with one word, a cute lolita.
The inscriptionist was a young and cute Loli who wore fluffy clothes.
"A wolf girl? Wow!" The moment she saw Alina and Lara, she ran up to them and began to touch Alina's furry ears.
"Miss, what are you doing?" Lara respectfully asked. Although she was a loli, the loli was an inscriptionist. She knows the power and status an inscriptionist have so she spoke respectfully.
"Um, this is very rude. Please don't touch my ears." Alina asked. Her ears were solely the property of her alpha. The rest weren't allowed to touch it as they please!
It was disrespectful to the Moon God!
'I am feeling you up," Fizast internally thought while beaming a smile towards her. Outwardly, she said,
"Please don't undermine my good intents! I'm trying to unlock the slave collars around your neck. Be cooperative, please, or else, I won't be able to take off the slave collars."
This was a manipulative pervert that liked Wolf girls! And her main fetish was feeling up Wolf Girl ears.
Silently, Alina endured the torture as she wanted the stiffy collar off her neck. While Lara felt bad for her, she was also calm as the Loli had good intentions and she was only touching her ears and nowhere else.
In some hours, the collar around their neck was taken off. And at the very moment, Marvin who was chilling on the sofa while drinking cola received the long-awaited mission completion notification.
