Chapter 15: First Power(2)

Start from the beginning
                                        

Selena stared at it for a while and then looked at Luke with confusion. Luke then answered her questioning gaze.

"I'll be gone for a while. Find a decent inn and buy whatever you all need. But don't waste it on useless stuff. At least buy some clothes or something. Don't follow me. I'll be back."

Luke walked past them and started to run with haste magic towards the tall mountain beside the City, leaving his group speechless.

Selena then looked at Luke's back that is getting farther and farther away. She then clenched the pouch of money Luke gave her and talked in an annoyed tone.

"Kids... Let's loot this bastard's money dry."

The kids and Spencer all nodded in unison while looking at where Luke just ran into. If Luke heard them he might even faint while crying about his money, but fortunately, he didn't hear it.

Luke arrived at the foot of the mountain and saw tall fences with warning signs. Luke ignored it and asked Nash.

"Nash, flight magic please."

"Okay."

Luke suddenly starts to float up over the fence. He then landed on the other side of the fence.

Grrrrr!

Luke looked at the monsters that are slowly approaching him. They looked like trolls. He then heard Nash's voice on his shoulder.

"Ha, trying to provoke me? How cute."

Nash removed his invisibility and looked at the trolls. The trolls noticed his presence and started to run away. They looked scared.

Clap, clap, clap.

Luke clapped his hands while looking at the running trolls in amazement.

"As expected of Nash. Truly cool."

"Hmph! This is normal."

Luke then took out his sword. He frowned at the condition of the sword. It has a crack on it from the previous explosion. It looked like it will break with a few more swings. Luke put the blade back to the scabbard with an unhappy expression and then started to walk towards the mountain and started to climb.

The terrain was bumpy and it was covered with tall grasses and trees. There are monsters around them but they can't attack because of Nash. There are some stubborn ones but their heads immediately exploded with Nash's scary magic. Even the high-grade monsters in the mountain immediately retreated.

Thanks to haste magic and Nash's protection, Luke safely arrives at the top of the mountain. On top of the mountain, there is flat and rocky land.

Luke then saw a blue stone shining brightly at the center, he then smiled and approached the stone. He was about to grab the stone but Luke suddenly felt a strong headache and held his head with both hands. Nash asked in a worried tone.

"Hey? What's wrong?! Huh?! Blood! You're bleeding!"

Luke saw drops of blood flowing out from his mouth and nose. He felt extreme pain but the God of Light's blessing repelled the pain. But the problem is, his nose is still bleeding.

'Damn it, what the heck is this? This is not mentioned in the novel!'

"Hey, why are you bleeding?! Are you okay?!"

He heard Nash's cries, he tried to ignore them and close his eyes.

And then, he suddenly heard an unfamiliar voice in his head. It was a deep but clear voice.

• Don't touch that. Everyone below will die.

'What are you talking about? Die? Why?'
