After resting for the whole night, Hill and Llyod woke up, feeling refreshed. Ryth, on the other hand, looked more tired. Probably it is because that he had slept late and woke up too early. As usual, Ryth did his daily morning routine; washing his face and doing some morning exercise. After he had done, he took a quick shower and changed into his armor and also changed his bandages.
He left the room and met up with the owner. He and the two gave their farewell and continued their journey to the Tango Forest.
"After we arrive at the Tango Forest, what shall we do, my lord?" Llyod asked.
"We will head straight to the dark elf's village first."
In the game, once you have arrived at the Tango Forest, you immediately need to go straight to the dark elf's village. In that scenario, you may encounter a unique quest that allows player to obtain their own NPC bodyguard. Coincidentally, player may also be able to encounter a hidden class scroll for swordman type. Thus, it would be like 'Killing two birds with one stone'.
"Daedalus, is there a feature like a quest log or something?"
"Ah, yes. Let me open it up for you."
A feature called a quest log suddenly appeared in front of Ryth.

"Oh? It's a main quest?" Ryth asked, curiously, and continued, "Why was the secret quest of healing Mr. Ruddy's hand isn't counted as a quest? I don't think I receive a reward or anything at all."
"Ah, that's because you accepted the quest before you equipped me. But this quest is different. Since your goal now is to overthrow your stepbrother. The system made it into the main quest." Replied daedalus.
"Eh... what a waste..." Ryth heaved a long breath.
"Speaking of which... how in the world you know about EXP?" asked Daedalus, and he coontinued, "I never explain it to you."
"Uhm... how do I put this...?" Ryth put his thumb and index finger on his chin and continued, "I will tell you when the time comes, haha!"
"Hahh... again... okay if you don't want to tell me, I won't ask any further."
They continued their journey to the Tango Forest, stopping once for a lunch. After a couple of hours, they finally arrived at the forest.
A few minutes after arriving into the forest, Ryth and the two suddenly heard a scream ahead.
"WAAAAAH! Someone help us!"
"UWAAA! help us!"
The screams sounded like it came from a bunch of children.
Ryth's eyes widened and shouted at Llyod and Hill to come help, "Lets go help them fast!" They ran towards the origin of the screams.
A blue beam then spread all over their surroundings and in an instant, a minimap popped out, showing 3 red dots and 3 yellow dots near them.
"I already showed what lies ahead in the minimap!" Shouted Daedalus.
"Good! There are 3 enemies right ahead. Llyod, you take care of the one on the right! Hill, you take care of the one in the middle! I will go for the other one on the left!"
Once they arrived near the area of where the red dots appeared, they saw 3 level 20 monsters. Despite their huge bodies, they are still weak, when compare to Ryth and the two. For the children, however, it seems that the monsters are too powerful for them.
Ryth and Llyod quickly ran towards their respective targets while Hill jumped to a high point, adjusted his bow and took a shot at the monster.
{Skull Piercer}!
An arrow in a very high speed head towards the monster.
-11000
Hit mark appeared above its head. The monster who only has 6000 HP instantly fell to the ground.
Ryth unsheated [Vengeance] as he avoided the monster's attacks. He then activated a skill.
{Stream of Light}!
-1200
-2403
-2304
6 slashes hit the monster, some of the attacks were a critical hits. The monster fell to the ground with blood gushing out from its body.
Llyod, on the other side, was also done with the other monster, almost at the same time as Ryth did. He placed back his great sword at his back.
"Wuu wuu wuu..."
Two of the children were still crying, while the other one tried to calm them down. He steeled himself from crying and asked Ryth, "Who are you...? Thank you for saving our lives..."
Ryth nodded his head, "Uhm, I'm Ryth, this big uncle over there is Llyod, and this is Hill." Ryth smiled and continued, "Why are you guys here? isn't this area dangerous?"
The brave kid wiped his tears and replied, "We were playing here as usual, but suddenly, there were monsters coming from there." The boy pointed his index finger towards the west.
"Both of you stay here, I will check it out real quick." Ryth said in a solemn voice.
"But, my lord-"
Llyod couldn't finish his sentence as Ryth interrupted him, "Relax, I will only take a look. I will return later."
"But we do not know much about this place..."
"It's okay, trust me. I know what I'm doing." Replied Ryth as he smiled.
Ryth quickly ran towards the west. And with the help of Daedalus, he was able to detect the traces of mana left behind by the monsters.
"If I recall it correctly, that dungeon should be around here..."
Ryth stopped and swiftly hid behind a tree.
"Ah right! That's where the secret scroll is! Hopefully, in this world, it's still there."
After some time, Ryth thought, "I see... okay let's head back."
"You just wanted to see the dungeon to make sure of something?" asked Daedalus.
"Yeah..." Ryth smiled.
The reason as to why Ryth had insisted on having a look was to make sure that it is the same dungeon in 'The Throne' or not. Now that he is confident that it is still the same, he returned back to where his teammates are.
Upon watching Ryth's return, Llyod and Hill stood up. "What's the situation there?"
"Well, I found a dungeon there. But it seems like there is something wrong. Usually, monsters wouldn't get out from the dungeons but it seems like the monsters before were actually from inside the dungeon."
"Eh? How come?"
"I'm not so sure about that. But lets put it aside for now," Ryth said. He then turned towards the children who had already stopped crying. "Can the three of you kids lead us to your village?"
"Mhm!" The brave kid nodded his head in agreement.
"They saved us, so they must be good people." The boy thought to himself.
They were about to head off to the village when suddenly, a group of 5 wearing black hoodie appeared before them.
"Halt! Who are you people?" One of the men shouted. He then seemed to notice the children behind Ryth and was furious. "Release those kids immediately!"
Then one of them, who seemed to be their leader, signaled for the angry man to stop talking and introduced himself politely, "I apologize for my subordinate's impolite manners. My name is Woodgard and it is nice to meet you."
Woodgard pulled back his hoodie. He has a handsome face, who looked like he is in his early 20's. He has sharp eyes with a pointy nose. He's as tall as Hill. Despite his friendly attitude, there is a mysterious aura that surrounds him.
"Ah! It's him!" Ryth's eyes lit up.
"What? You know him?" asked Daedalus.
"He's the one that I wanted to invite to our party."
"Ah, I see…. But how would you persuade him to join us? He looks like he is someone who holds one of the top positions in the Dark Elf's village. And also, he seems quite suspiciously mysterious."
"Don't worry about it," Ryth said to Daedalus. He then takes a step forward, cupped his hand and replied, "My name is Ryth. And with me are Llyod and Hill."
Woodgard nodded and returned back the gesture. "Thank you for helping save these children. We are very grateful that you were around to save them. He then tilted his head in a questioning look as he asked, "May I know why you and your friends are in our territory?"
"We would like to meet with the chief of the tribe. We have something to discuss with him."
Woodgard was slightly surprised and said. "Not everyone can enter our village, let alone meet with our chief. I hope you don't take any offense from this, but we can't just let unknown people enter our village, we are sorry."
"Yeah, especially humans like you." Said the person who shouted to let go the kids before.
"I know your tribe suffered a lot from the discrimination and hate. But you have my word. You will have none of these from us. We will respect what's being followed in your tribe." Ryth bowed and continued, "I really need to meet your chief."
"It's okay, uncle! They are good people! When this big brother are away to check about the monsters origin, his teammates didn't do anything to us! They even gave us a bread each!" Said the brave kid.
"Yeah! I think so too!"
"Me too!"
Woodgard sighed. After contemplating for some time, he finally agreed to their request. "Okay, but I need you to give us your weapons. We will escort you to our village."
"Sure." Ryth nodded.
"Is it really okay, my lord?" asked Hill, whispering.
"It will be fine, Hill. We need to gain their trust first. Only then we can ask for their help later on."
"Okay."
Few minutes later, they finally arrived at the village.
They stopped at the entrance to the village. Woodgard bowed and welcome them inside, "Welcome to our humble village," he said, with a little bow.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
