Matthew landed on the grassy backyard of the mansion that was wide open. His eyes were trained on his attacker. Matthew had identified her as a woman judging from her outward appearance even if she completely covered her face with a dark green cloth. Her clothes were tattered and dirty. She probably just returned from somewhere outside of the city.

Actually, Matthew knew exactly who she was simply by her astral signature.

The attacker got on her feet and quickly drew three arrows and released them at Matthew. Matthew easily deflected all the arrows with his scaly right arm. The attacker fired another arrow, one enchanted with magic.

The arrow landed on Matthew’s feet and created a smoke screen. Being enveloped by smoke, Matthew’s vision was completely blocked. Even so, Matthew knew where the attacker was. Or rather, were. He detected multiple signatures from different directions.

“This trick again.” Matthew was calm as he still knew exactly which ones were clones and which one was rea

    After meeting with a couple of old friends, Matthew was off on his own again. The place he was headed was also a noble’s mansion, though he had never been there. The only clue he was given was only that it was a noble in the East Omni City, the Whitegate territory. Not that he knows where to find it, and he was not very happy to meet the person who sent the invitation either.“How the hell did she send me an invite so quickly? The announcement was only yesterday.”:Unless she already knew some time ago and only now decided to invite you: Draco said."That's the only explanation I have for now too. After what happened last time, I'm not sure if I can trust her.":It's understandable. At least she has kept your whereabouts a secret, so she may not be an enemy:"Maybe. We'll find out soon enough."Maybe was walking normally while watching his surroundings, looking for the Whitegate's mansion. Matthew could just use [Astral Sense] to find her, but he didn't remember her signature. The eye

    Matthew walked alone on the street in a bad mood. His back was slumped and his hands were in his pockets. He did not let out any malicious presence, but the air around him felt gloomy even to the common people.:I think you should calm down a bit, kid: Arshild said.“I’m not angry.”:Yeah, you’re not but you are clearly upset:“Hmm…”…“We have a lead on Rose.” Jack suddenly revealed it to Matthew.“What?”“You heard me right.”“Why are you telling me now? Why couldn’t you tell me all this time?!” Matthew got agitated. He accidentally released a burst of astra in his temper.“Well, I just found out yesterday too. Hence the letter. As for how I knew…” Jack did not finish his sentence.Matthew was waiting for Jack to continue but a second later, he figured it out. “Loki.”Jack just slowly nodded.Matthew was confused as paced around a few steps quickly. Then he jumped at Jack, grabbing him by his collar. “Where is she? Where is she?!” His eyes were blazing with fury.Matthew shook him q

    Layla was running toward Matthew excitedly with her brother not too far behind."Layla?" Matthew was surprised to see her. Her shop was nowhere near here.Layla stopped just in front of Matthew. “Hiya! How’ve you been?” Layla cheerfully asked.Layla was Rain’s little sister. They both shared the same features, such as blonde hair, green eyes, and a slender body. Unlike Rain though, Layla was shorter but had longer hair than him that was not tied. She wore a green dress with a white short skirt that showed off her thighs and knee high socks.“You should’ve heard from your brother.” Matthew looked at Rain as he gave his answer.“That an A-Okay from you then! Did you grow taller too? Oh, you definitely are more muscular. So strong~ And you scales, so smooth~” Layla poked Matthew’s body and caressed his scaly arm.“Get off of him, you!”“Eh?!” Layla was grabbed from behind by the collar by Rain. “Let me go Rain!” Layla flailed about roughly but Rain was strong enough to not even flinch at

    After finishing his meal at Kop’s Cafe, Matthew decided to head for the nearby Hunter station. He was still wearing his disguise when he went there.He arrived at the station. It was quite lively with all the Hunters there enjoying their night after a tiring day. None of them even noticed Matthew entering the station except for the receptionists.As soon as they spotted Matthew, they stood straight with their hands over their crotch with smiles on their faces. Matthew walked up to them to not keep them waiting.“Hello there! I’ve never seen you here before. Are you a new Hunter, or just new in the area?” The receptionist asked after a warm greeting. She was a wolfwoman with brown fur.Matthew was neither and they had met before, but she didn’t know that. “In the area.”“Oh, I see. Well, how can I help you?”“Got any more quests?” Matthew asked even though he could see a bunch of them on the quest board.“You want to do a quest this late at night?”“Yeah. I don’t feel like sleeping. Ju

    Following the map on the quest sheet, Matthew finally arrived at the dungeon’s entrance after an hour of searching. The entrance was not grand and seemed thousands of years old. Matthew had forgotten how exciting it was to explore a dungeon.“Well, let’s go in then.” Matthew said to himself.The stone slabs that made the dungeon were mossy and cracked. Cobwebs filled the ceilings while the floor was littered with dirt. Each side of the walls had an array of mysterious stones as a light source. Five people could fit in the hall, so it was quite easy to move in since Matthew came alone.From the first to the tenth floors, Matthew fought against hellhounds, kobolds, trolls, orcs, high orcs, ogres, demon slimes, lesser demons, giant scorpions, zombies, and skeletons. All the monsters were dealt with easily without Matthew having to use any power. His strength alone was enough to defeat them.From the eleventh to the twentieth floors, Matthew fought the same monsters as before, only that t

    In the Hunters station, the two receptionists were frozen in astonishment seeing the abundance of loot that was neatly sorted in the storage room. A large number of high class materials were brought back by Matthew in the one night that he was gone. There was an appraiser who was inspecting the materials while the others watched.“You actually cleared the entire dungeon by yourself? In just one night?” The wolf lady asked.“Hey, watch your words!” The woman beside her nudged her elbow in her friend’s side.“Ow! Sorry. Milord, did you actually do it?” The wolf lady asked in a more proper manner now.“Yeah, totally. Although I finished a bit later than I hoped, I did.” Matthew answered. He was back in his disguised look as of now.“How was it? Was the dungeon tough?” The woman asked.“Well, I was forced to use my dragon form, so I’d say it’s pretty tough by normal standards.”“Is that so? Um, excuse me, sir. But can I ask you about the details of the dungeon? It would help the other Hun

    “What are you doing here, Loki?” Matthew’s voice was unexpectedly calm although his expression said otherwise.“For you to almost see through my spell… Your immunity to mental affecting magic is incredibly high. I just wanted to say hi.” ‘Jack’ was trying to be funny to ease the tension, but it only made it worse.“Answer me.” Matthew said in a more serious tone.“I just told you-”Vm!‘Jack’ sensed that his binding spell just lost a string in its magic circle. Matthew was overcoming the binding spell, no, he could easily break out if he wanted to. That was like a warning from Matthew.“Well, sorry if you don’t believe me, but it’s true. I figured that it’s about time I risked my life meeting you in person. Thankfully I was prepared.” ‘Jack’ stood up and avoided even touching Matthew’s fist.Once he stood up, he headed for the door and locked it. After that, he turned around to face Matthew. “[Domain: Silence]” He casted a spell that Matthew did not know the function of.“I am deeply

    Three days later, Matthew's ban from the Association was lifted. Once he did, he completed multiple quests in a day for the next week to the point that he was to be limited to only one quest per day. Matthew complied and spent another week doing so.Although two weeks in total have passed and various things happened, Matthew was still bothered by the things that Loki said. He kept thinking back on his decision and what he should do. The best course of action.Matthew hasn't returned to the Alpen peak nor Cecilia's mansion. Instead, he spent his nights either in an inn or just outside when didn't feel like sleeping. His companions in conversation were mostly Draco and Arshild who were always with him no matter where he went. He sometimes asked for their opinions as he kept worrying again.Draco and Arshild were getting annoyed from his constant worries, but they do still care about him. They could never help Matthew make a definitive decision because of their different opinions.Draco,

    At the edge of the pit, it was them. A total of nine of the Scarlett family members.From the right, a woman with long red hair and black and white dress was casting a healing spell on Bilgrae. A male elf in full black armour with a star shaped bang of three red points and two white points and his black hair was split in the middle. A demon with dark violet hair and a pair of horns at the side of her head and wore a jet black skin tight suit which exposed certain parts, Crymillia. In the middle, it was a man with short bright red hair wearing a black and gold robe. Then, a man with black hair in a red and black suit. Another demon with about the same features as Crymillia except that his hair was short and he wore a black cloak over his suit. Then there was a man with spiky red hair in a red robe with a high collar, Crone, the one that Matthew and his friends fought at the Great Sandcastle. Finally, there was the black feathered avian human, Skystorm.Seeing Skystorm in good health, M

    Confronting Bilgrae now was what he expected to see from a Dragon Emperor.Matthew was now at maximum output of his astra and all of it was condensed in his body. Bright red scales covered his entire body and he grew slightly in size. His muscles became more toned and also increased in size. A pair of horns of a darker tone of red grew out of his forehead that curved to the back of his head. Both of his eyes were glowing golden as his hair was.“Let’s finish this!” Matthew did not delay any further. He couldn’t maintain this form for long so he must finish the fight quickly.Matthew dashed toward Bilgrae who was ready for Matthew. Their fists clashed again and this time, not only was Bilgrae pushed back, he felt pain in his knuckles. Matthew was much stronger than before and far faster too. Utilising his speed, Matthew went for another punch to Bilgrae’s gut.“Oof!” Bilgrae got the air knocked out of him with the first hit.Matthew followed up with a barrage of punches. Bilgrae truly

    After being blown away by Skystorm’s wind, Matthew regained his footing and was met with the big lizardman, Bilgrae Scarlett. Bilgrae had a smirk on his face. Matthew stood up and faced Bilgrae, but his eyes were not on him. Matthew’s eyes fell on Falynx in the far distance.“Are you still concerned about that monster?” Bilgrae asked with his deep voice.Matthew looked at Bilgrae now. “It’s hard to know which one is the monster here.”“Heh, you’re right. All of us are monsters deep inside. It just takes one misstep to turn a person into one. You’ve been there too.”“No I haven’t.”“Maybe not to you. But the whole world saw you as one. Now that monster suddenly turned into an emperor and they suddenly glorified you, while some still hate you of course.”“Hmph.” Matthew huffed.“You’re angry with me, I understand. I purposely did not kill that beast. Out of compassion.”“Don’t lie. You Scarletts don’t know what that means.”Bilgrae wasn’t smiling anymore. “You don’t know how merciful fa

    Akame and Skystorm were separated from Matthew and Bilgrae. Akame stood up after being blown away by the powerful gust of wind created by Skystorm. Their eyes met. Both of their irises were bright red and gazed deeply.“I will be your foe, Red Cardinal.” Skystorm said.“What relic will you take? What will you use it for?” Akame asked.“Straight to the questions huh… That’s not any of your business. Why would you care what we take anyway if you’ll die?”“To evaluate whether it’s worth fighting for or not.”“Hmm, a smart choice. If you don't want to fight, then I shant confront you. Sadly, it seems that Lord Dragunov disagrees with you. If he is in the way, then we must remove him. I don’t think that leaves you an option now.”Backing out from this would mean that Matthew will be fighting two people. If they weren’t among the Scarlett Army’s strongest, it probably wouldn’t be hard for him to deal with alone. Both of their foes were really strong and Akame had no expectation of defeating

    After their encounter with Falynx, they reached an agreement to conduct an investigation as they intended. Falynx had flown back to the surface on its own. Matthew and Akame headed to the temple and arrived at the front door.For some reason, even though they were underground, it was as clear as day down here. It was not dark and not too bright either, like a cloudy day.There were stairs that led to the door and the walls in the area were already partially destroyed. Some of the stairs were also gone. The giant door was made of stone and seemed to be intact with little cracks around the hinges.Matthew pushed one of the doors open. It was surprisingly heavy so Matthew had to lean into it to move it. Akame went inside first and inspected the place. There was a stage and a podium carved out of stone at the end of the great hall. A mural was carved out of the wall behind the stage depicting a supposed god holding the sun in his hands.Matthew left the door open and joined Akame to look

    In the middle of the desert, there were two figures running across the sands. Clouds of sand were left behind in their quick steps. The cloak provided by the minister was really working. No sand was sticking onto them.“We’re getting close.” Matthew informed Akame.Almost two hours have passed since they left the city. Many monsters came their way but they were easily dealt with. It caused a little delay but not enough to affect their momentum. Falynx’s presence was still about 10 kilometres away.“Be ready for battle.” Akame said.“Remember though, don’t kill it.” Matthew reminded her.A few minutes later, a gigantic figure could be seen flying in the sky. The creature had the body of a snake, the head of a crocodile and six pairs of batwings. Its yellow eyes with black vertical slits looked down at the incoming people below.Falynx bowed its head and began descending. Matthew and Akame saw this as an engagement in battle. Matthew called out the Dragoknight to his arms and increased

    The sun was already high up in the sky in the Capital City of Kubalt. The weather was hot and dry as usual in San Coro. The street around this particular area was not that busy since it was right in front of the Palace of Al-Jauhara. One would occasionally see knights patrolling the area. Akame was waiting under the intense heat of the sun. She had covered herself in a large black cloth to protect herself from the heat. The guards out here only wore light armour compared to the ones inside, probably because their armour would be too hot to wear outside. Not too long after, she finally saw the one she was waiting for. Matthew was jogging toward her. He wore his long sleeved red hooded jacket and an orange shirt under it and a pair of black pants. He also had his usual travelling backpack with him. “Phew, sorry, did you wait long?” “Not too long. Did you not use a teleportation scroll?” Akame asked. “I did, but the closest one was to Yanbue City. Neither Platinum nor Rose were famil

    “What brings you here, Akame?” Matthew asked.Just a few moments ago, Akame had arrived in front of Platinum’s cave. Someone like who was a Coloured Hunter, passing through the Blackwood Forest and up the cold mountain was not a problem. Or not.Akame was hugging herself to keep warm but it was not helping at all. “Achoo! C-can we talk somewhere warmer?”“Oh, come on in.” Matthew invited her inside.Akame went in and they both made their way to the living room. Matthew didn't think that it was alright to bring her to the others directly. The living room had a fire to keep them warm, so here was enough.“Ah~” Akame warmed herself up by the fire and put her hands out.“So, what are you doing here without equipment to survive on a mountain? Certainly you didn’t come to interview us?” Matthew asked.“Queen Cleopatra sent me. We will investigate the ruin she mentioned together.” Akame said with the same emotionless voice as usual.“Cleopatra? Well, I was gonna head there in a few days anyw

    Matthew and Rose arrived at the foot of the mountain just by the Blackwood Forest where they dropped off of the carriage while Guinevere headed back to her palace. It was already very late in the afternoon when they got to the forest. Matthew carried Rose's luggage in hands while he also wore his backpack."I can carry my own stuff." Rose said."No, I will carry them for you. Anyway, are you sure you'll be fine?""My magic resistance is quite high. I also know how to disperse mana if it does accumulate inside me. How long exactly is it going to take to get up there again?" Rose looked up at the ledge near the mountain peak where Platinum's abode was."Well, usually only a few hours if you're moving at my usual speed. If we're walking though, a few days at least." Matthew said."But we're not walking, right?" Rose asked."Nope." As Matthew replied, a shadow flew past over them.A jade green dragon circled them as she descended to the ground nearby. Upon landing, the dragon folded its w
