The Night Sun

The Wandering Wolf in the Forest of Resentment is just a regular monster, not too hard to defeat.

One or two strikes are enough to kill one.

Quickly, the two of them cleared it out.

Only one remains -Mystery of Lucas Castle-

They need to transport to the Territory of Count Lucas.

Both have returned to Qiu Yu City, from here they can teleport anywhere in the world.

"Hey, No One!"

Sword of Love, who was walking with Hana at the time, waved to greet them.

"What, not out picking flowers?" No One cheerfully went over to greet them.

"Just picked a bunch, there's a daily limit, so I'm doing other stuff now," Sword of Love boasted, showing off a basket full of flower petals.

"So, wanting to do the Count's dungeon?"

"Sure thing, Hana, you in?" Sword of Love turned to look at Hana.

Hana nodded.

They were done anyway, and since flower picking was over, helping friends wouldn't be a big deal.

"This must be the new loli member in the guild." Sword of Love said with a grin while glancing at Snow Moon.

"I hit the wrong button!" Snow Moon blushed furiously.

Everyone happily made their way to the portal to the Territory of Count Lucas.

Suddenly, a figure emerged from the portal.

A knight clad in black armor stepped out of the gate.

Everyone couldn't help but look over.

An NPC?

【Lv300 Unholda Kaiser】

Level 300... That's equivalent to the Phantom of The Immortal Blade in Demonblade state...Most faction leaders will be around level 150.

As for the Heavenly Demon In Black, No One couldn't see the level. His master must have a way to conceal it.

It’s rare to see an NPC with this level of strength.

Unholda Kaiser glanced at No One briefly, then walked away.

The group didn't think much of it and continued on.

After the Sea of Flames event, the game will surely undergo many changes.

As they entered, they encountered another group.

This time it was someone from the Holy Nation. It seemed they were also preparing to pass through the teleport gate.

Leading them was a nun, followed by the Paladins and Priests of the Holy Nation.

Among those Paladins, there were both NPCs and players.

It was likely part of some mission.

The nun was tall, probably about 1.7 meters (around 5'7"), not skinny nor fat, but rather well-proportioned.

Suddenly, No One’s eyes met with the nun's.

She smiled at that moment.

"Unexpectedly, I get to meet the hero who crossed the sea of flames here."

Huh?

This NPC is initiating a conversation directly?

"I'm not worthy of the hero title; I'm just a passerby from a distant land," No One bowed.

The nun's eyes seemed to narrow, still smiling as she looked at him."You have no idea how much trouble you've caused this world."

No One was taken aback.

What?

The nun continued walking with her entourage.

"Consider yourself lucky there's a suppression here. Otherwise, I'd truly want to kill you and imprison you until you rot in the Holy Nation's prison," Nightingale thought as she passed through the gate.

The group continued on.

"Unlucky for you, now even the NPCs bear hostility towards you," Sword of Love chuckled.

"Who could've known?" No One scratched his head.

He could somewhat guess the reason.

In the game's prophecy, the White Beast was supposed to appear in the skies over the City of Azure Flames.

But now, due to No One crossing the Sea of Flames, it has become Qiu Yu City.

Surely, many expecting the White Night event would hold grudges towards him.

The group entered the dungeon gate of the Lucas Castle Mystery.

Inside, the scene resembled an abandoned castle, with moss and mold growing everywhere on the stone walls.

This dungeon was chosen as the daily quest dungeon because it only has one Boss.

Players just need to run to the Boss's location.

"No One, have you heard about the situation in the Extreme West?" Sword of Love asked while running.

"No, I haven't paid attention this morning. What's up?" No One replied, running alongside.

"The Extreme West has seen many factions starting to experience turmoil after the Sea of Flames event. Check the news when you have time."

"In short: a big fight!"

No One sighed."Can you elaborate a bit more?"

He decided to ignore it for now, planning to gather flowers while reading the news later.

...

In no time, the Boss was defeated.

A monster resembling a vampire was dissolving into light and disappearing.

The damage output of the four players was evidently much higher compared to when No One and Snow Moon went.

At this point, everyone said goodbye and disbanded.

Sword of Love and Hana logged out of the game.

Snow Moon, who had already picked flowers before meeting No One, also mentioned she had something to do and left.

No One then teleported to Aeterfloris to pick flower petals.

Solmist petals were scattered all over the city, but usually, they'd be picked up quickly by players.

No One stood in a small alley, waiting for the petals to fall so he could collect them.

He didn’t go to the square as it was too crowded, making it harder to collect petals.

Leaning against the wall, he read news related to the Extreme West.

【The Holy Nation and King's Mark are in conflict. War is to be expected.】

【The Demon King is about to appear?】【Prophecy】

【New class?】

No One skimmed through, and essentially, the prophecy had been officially revealed. It was no longer just the NPCs who knew about it.

The Holy Nation wanted the White Night event to occur, while King's Mark did not.

Therefore, the Holy Nation planned to attack and seize King's Mark's territory to expand their domain.

At the same time, they intended to spread their doctrine to the Extreme East, with plans to advance towards the Extreme East.

To reach the Extreme East from the Holy Nation, they would have to pass through King's Mark and then through Xiyu.

There was concern that Xiyu might also face issues later if King's Mark were to fall.

The second important piece of information was about the Demon King.

If the Extreme East had the Heavenly Demon, then the Extreme West had the Demon King.

Both were leaders of the "demonic path."

However, since the game appeared, both positions seemed vacant.

No One recently learned that the Heavenly Demon truly existed and was his master.

So, it wouldn't be surprising if the Demon King also existed.

It was speculated that he hadn't made an appearance until recently.

However, the information only briefly mentioned that NPCs were whispering about the Demon King's appearance.

As for the whereabouts of this person, they still didn't know.

Finally, the new class.

This was a prophecy specific to the Extreme West.

【When the Demon King appears, a hero will also be born.】【After defeating a dragon, the hero will bathe in its blood, gaining an indestructible body.】

【After slaying a phoenix, the hero will absorb it, obtaining an immortal soul.】

【When confronting the Demon King, only one will continue to live, taking everything from the other.】

Hero Class.

No One was skeptical that the developers would include a class that sounded so cool and had the vibe of a "hidden class" or "unique class" in the game.

But many data miners also discovered that there was indeed a class with such a name.

Hopefully, they wouldn’t go overboard.

No One's shirt was suddenly tugged.

He looked down.

A beggar NPC.

A kid around 14 years old.

No One happily took out a few coins and placed them in his hand.

【Beggar Thomas expresses gratitude to you, affection +10】

【Good deed performed in Aeterfloris, reputation +10】

The child gratefully bowed and then joyfully ran off.

Every city in the First World has its own reputation system.

Sometimes, there are small events that boost reputation.

A little extra reputation never hurt anyone.

BOOM.

Suddenly, a loud sound echoed from the nearby alley.

A deafening explosion.

Followed by a notification popping up.Along with the crying of the beggar child just now.

【Encounter: Heartbreak.】
