All Chapters of Conscious Conscience: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

  The day is about to end and the NPC's are wrapping up the situation, as announcements are now being broadcast in the area that the rupture has been managed.    "Oh, look at the time… well as much as we wanted to chat, we have a lot of things going on since we are busy subjugating a quest, but thankfully we met here," Vanessa said.    "You see, we've been planning to give this to Big Bro as thanks for all your guidance back in training school and at the guild," Latina said and gave me a green mint colored ring.   "That is a Qilin Artifact, it might not be much but we thought you would like it's skill <AirWalk> and <Guardianship>," Janella continued.    "The <AirWalk> sk

  I formed a worried smile as I walked calmly forward. It was still a couple of minutes of endless darkness even when using the <Shadow Transfer>.    Just how long did I travel?   As I was already at the entrance of the Chamber, I carefully opened the door and a wide abandoned room greeted my presence.    When I made a few steps into the room, I heard a wisp of sound coming from the crevices of the blueish-black brick walls. I took careful steps, sensing every movement from the area.   Cobwebs linger everywhere, and antique furniture layered with dust sits perfectly arranged in the corners of the room. I didn't waste much time and walked farther to explore.   

  The reddish sky was tranquil, yet the wind was echoing as I walked the path towards the main Cave's entrance. Suddenly my senses tingled as I felt an enormous amount of demonic energy forming in one place.    I instinctively raised my sword, yet nothing sudden happened. "Perhaps it was only my imagination," I said to myself as I made sure the place was peaceful and quiet— until I felt the basalt ground shaking.   I saw the pool of lava moving and the sapling of the "Tree of Life and Death" become restless. I jumped straight towards the deforming rocks as it spewed smoke from its crevices.    Slowly I looked up and saw sulfuric dust falling down from the ceiling as the nearby volcano was rumbling. Then I thought to myself, it was definitely those Gole

  "Ah, that immediately went wrong…  I see rumors are now circulating." I sighed, "I need to do something sooner, but I cannot afford for many guilds to suddenly appear at my house and recruit me, if anything I need to establish my own team…. If this game is really up to something, I'll definitely find that out first."    <Shadow Transfer>!!!   I dashed across the shadows arriving at my apartment on the other side and hearing disembodied voices arguing with each other, "I wonder what those two are up to…"   Right as I got near my door, my heightened senses allowed me to hear their conversation. "You should place the plate down at the sink and press the sponge with enough pressure to skim all the scum and dirt. Then do it like this, just smooth ci

  "We traveled a bit farther than I expected," Sahra said and we all ran back to the Abrasha Park.    "You have become a lot faster than last time!" Sahra commented as I now hardly struggled to run at a constant speed.     "Well… I, uh, I’ve been doing daily exercises."    "Daily exercises? Is dyeing your hair white also part of the exercise?" She asked, although she really meant it as a joke.    "About that, things happened… I couldn't tell you the details, sorry," I apologized and she just smiled in response.    'Is my white hair really that unorthodox, are anime hairstyles isn't a thing anymore?'
