Chapter 173 – Ranchi Discovers the Fetish of the Great Love Poet
Ranchi, who was still in the second floor corridor preparing to go back to the Sanctuary to look for Huberian and Frey, looked at the gradually dissolving castle scene and stood still with a stutter.
“Oops, looks like I don’t have to walk.”
As the castle walls gradually dissolved, the light of dawn was suddenly replaced by deep darkness the moment it reached its peak.
In just the blink of an eye, Ranchi found himself in a transparent hut that seemed to be wrapped in an eternal starry sky.
Only a few stars twinkled sparsely, glittering as if telling a story of millions of years, and Frey and Huberian were here, giving their sight enough light to see the scene before them.
It was a marvelous space, where the world of reality and the world of shadows were interwoven to form a critical edge.
Not far away, a spreading crack in the transparent barrier was silently visible, and from that gap spilled a few serene streams of purple light; later, by passing through this small gateway to the void, they could return to the present world, to the familiar life of the Ichorite campus.
And the settlement of the Shadow World hadn’t appeared for a while.
After the experience of the last time, Ranchi and Huberian were already sure that if there were too many situations that didn’t go by the mechanism during the real Shadow World challenge, the Shadow World’s settlement process would become slightly longer.
There was no telling how long this one would be slower.
Ranch looked over at Huberian and Frey with a smile, ready to have a chat.
“Our reward shouldn’t be bad this time.”
Rancic assured them both confidently.
“After all, it’s an offering of merit that swiped the rating ……”
Huberian covered her cheeks, Ranchi had made her personally activate the Solar Meritless Machine several times in order to make her rewards better this time as well.
As much as she appreciated Ranch, the longer she stayed with him, she couldn’t be human herself even if she wanted to anymore.
“I’m kind of looking forward to getting up.”
The magic cards Frey was carrying were all given to him by his teacher, Sphinx, the head of the Knights’ Academy, but only gave Frey up to purple rare grade cards at the moment.
At the thought that he could earn his first pink sacred or even orange epic grade magic deck, Frey had a happy worry-
Should he use them up himself, or sell them for money and take a chance.
“Frey, if you get a top tier magic card deck that suits you and then go sell it, I don’t think Dean Sphinx will let you off the hook ……”
Hubert Leanne naturally knew that old master who was the dean of the Knight’s Academy.
He was once also the teacher of Duke Migaiya Alansal.
The fact that Frey was able to be favored by Elder Sfentos meant that Frey also had talents in him that were not inferior to Migaiya, who was known as an all-round talent.
Just at the moment when the three of them were chatting in the student union as they usually did, the information that suddenly surfaced in this quiet and strange space finally began to flicker, a pure white halo scrolling line by line in the dark space.
[The Shadow World Sanctuary Villains Dinner has been cleared.]
[Accounting completed, evaluation generation in progress.]
[Due to challengers Ranch & Huberian & Frey entering as a team, team accounting is being used.]
[In the total 120 hours of this deductive shadow world, the challenger side found the betrayer in 11 hours and 30 minutes, and completed the full information reveal in 17 hours and 58 minutes.]
The team achieved the following accomplishments.
[High Teacher SS – Under your influence, most beings will evolve in just one day, and for those that cannot, you will help them evolve in a different way.]
[Feast of Villains A – Successfully accomplished the goals of the Betrayer in this deduction-based shadow world, rescuing and taking control of Viscount Augustine]
[Specialist in Foreign Wars S – The Betrayer fell into your trap and was tortured by you]
[Ritual Enlightenment E – At your request, the Great Poet of Love played the organ in earnest, instead of choosing to transform it into an astounding cooker to her liking]
[Vampire Release SSS – You have released and sealed Viscount Augustine a total of over 10,000 times]
[Conscience D – You’re a good witch, you’re the only one who’s being human]
“These should be mine and Huberian’s.”
Ranch said happily to the other two as he looked at the light screen that was refreshing. “…… What the hell is that Ritual Enlightenment.”
Despite all the slogans to spit out, the one that Huberian found the most incomprehensible was the one that had the achievement about the Great Love Poet.
“Does it mean that the Great Love Poet has been thinking about that pipe organ?”
She asked suspiciously.
“I said why she was always hanging around the sanctuary staring at that organ, and thought she was trying to play it a little longer.”
Frey nodded, finally understanding the habits of the great love poet.
It turned out that it wasn’t the soul of music that burned in her eyes at all, but the soul of a craftsman.
“I’ll have to keep a closer eye on my family’s summon from now on, she’s too weird to ever let her near valuable musical instruments.”
Ranchi was slightly frightened.
The Great Love Poet possessed complete self-awareness, even Ranchi couldn’t guess what was going on in her mind, and he didn’t realize that she really looked like she was a bit of a major disease.
In case she accidentally broke some heavenly priced musical instrument treasured by the kingdom, the damage caused by the summoned object would be calculated according to the summoner, and Ranchi could lose all his money.
At the moment they were exchanging words, the Shadow World’s rating continued to refresh.
[Famous Detective SS–You are a detective with both intelligence and force, to the point that your enemies can’t even tell if you’re solving cases by force or by intellect]
Castle Protector C – Because of your efficiency in solving the case, the bedroom door was not destroyed by the Betrayer on the first night, and you have protected Lichtens Castle intact.
[Vampire’s Gospel S – Thanks to your efforts, vampires have gained an unprecedented evolutionary direction, mummification]
[Achievement combing is over, evaluation generation is complete.]
[The nature of a killing game has changed because of your presence, the two betrayers originally referred to by the Holy Church of Evil are like two people compared to you.]]
[Comprehensive Evaluation: SSS]
[Rank Increase: Ranch 3rd rank → 4th rank, Huberian 4th rank → 5th rank, Frey 4th rank → 5th rank]]
The moment the rewards were ushered in for settlement, all three of them produced a rank breakthrough.
Ranch even realized that he had just reached the fourth rank, and was not that far from the fifth rank.
A third-ranked man challenging a fifth-ranked Shadow World was an excessive amount of rewards, not to mention hitting an SSS rating.
On the other hand, Frey, who was feeling this enlightening divine gift for the first time on the side, was clenching his fists in surprise.
“Frey, how does it feel?”
Ranch asked.
Compared to him and Huberian, Frey should be the one whose changes brought about by the rank advancement would be the most obvious.
“…… Is this the fifth rank? If I were to fight the Holy Maiden of Destruction one-on-one in the jungle terrain at night, I would be able to pit kill her as well.”
Frey was sure that the wolf traits in his body had awakened partially again with the rank up.
Ranch nodded.
Frey’s fourth rank already had strength comparable to the fifth rank.
Now that he had reached the fifth rank, even though there was a watershed between the fifth and sixth ranks, Frey had a racial enhancement at night, and even if he was put into the sixth rank, he could not be underestimated.
It could be said to be the strongest fighting force in their team at the moment.
[Reward Settlement: Tears of Undying Glaze (Fourth Order Epic Equipment Card), Wolf King’s Pride (Epic Material), Witch’s Warm Companionship (Fifth Order Sacred Equipment Card)].
Soon, along with this message, three hauntingly dense balls of light also floated towards them.
