Beside him, Harin also stared at that form with amazement.
âWow, the wolf is talking.â
At Harinâs words, the Fenrir flew into a rage.
At the Fenrirâs spirit, Harin flinched.
âAl, alright. Wellâ
And Ian, who was watching the two peopleâs conversation, introduced himself with a bitter expression.
âIâm Ian.â
Before Ian was even done speaking, the Fenrir, who introduced himself as âShallosâ, opened his mouth again.
At his words, Ian nodded his head.
âThatâs right, Iâm a Summoner.â
Shallos, who took a moment to scan the area, glanced once at his collapsed corpse and turned his head towards Ian again.
Ian slightly tensed up.
Since in any case, he was the one that killed him.
However, different from Ianâs expectation, the Fenrir said something unexpected.
Shallosâ words to Ian, who wore a dubious expression as he had no idea on how to respond, continued.
At the words that his strength was sealed, Ian shook his head.
âNo, if those were his sealed stats, exactly how strong is he normally?â
Ian, whose mind was on something else on the inside, nodded his head for now as he responded to his words.
âThanks wo- no, Shallos.â
Shallosâ gaze turned to the Familiars that were standing behind Ian like posts.
And after scanning them once, he continued speaking again.
Ian reflexively asked back.
âWhat is?â
âWhat kind of help?â
Once he heard those words, there was something that flashed through for an instant.
âBy any chance, could it be possible I gain a clue to evolve Ly through this dude?â
Truthfully, this was a speculation that was closer to a.s.surance than a guess.
Ian opened his mouth urgently.
âMy Familiar âLyâ will probably be one of your kin. Blood-Red Maned Wolf, right?â
At Ianâs words, Shallosâ two eyes slightly rounded.
Currently, as Ly suffered from Shallos, who was held captive by madness, it was a situation where he was withdrawn to a different s.p.a.ce.
Ian spoke.
âLyâs currently in a Summon Release state. If you just wait about 20 more minutes, I can call him back.â
Shallos nodded his head as if he finally understood.
âThatâs right, just wait a little bit longer. Iâll summon him again soon.â
However, different from Ianâs expectations, he shook his head as he continued speaking.
Ianâs two eyes slightly narrowed.
âWhat is it now? I told you, I can call back Ly in 20 minutes.â
As soon as he heard those words, Ian wore a dumbfounded expression.
At this miserable situation, Ian barely held back the swear words that almost left his mouth.
âThis, d.a.m.n it! Why exactly did they make this game like this?â
While looking at Ly, who had no intentions of evolving no matter how diligently he leveled him up, Ian was thinking that he needed to fulfill some sort of requirement.
However, as he couldnât even make use of the situation despite having found the clue in such an unexpected place like this, it was indeed grievous work.
While looking at Ian, who let out an incredibly deep sigh from his depression, Shallos added on.
As he finished speaking, a system message alerting Ian that he obtained a message popped up.
Based on the name that was written in purple, it was a definite that it was a Heroic-rank item.
However, there was no way that Ianâs mood would brighten from just that.
âHa, how am I going to evolve Ly nowâ
In order to express his grat.i.tude at the reward no matter what kind of mood he was in, Ian slightly dipped his head.
This was an action that had become naturally embedded in Ianâs body after playing Kailan up until now in order to get along in this world.
âThanks, Iâll use it well.â
He hadnât checked what kind of item it was yet, but Ian nodded his head.
âSure, I will do so.â
Ian, who thought that he finished all of his business now, moved his feet towards the opposite pa.s.sageway.
However, just then, Shallosâ mouth opened again.
âHmm?â
Because he had no idea from the beginning that the pa.s.sageway even connected to somewhere else, there was no way he would have had such intentions, but Ian nodded his head.
âThatâs right. Weâre going to go out now through this opposite side.â
As he planned on checking the end of the dungeon anyways, he wasnât exactly saying a lie.
A NPCâs request would be a quest.
Ianâs eyes slightly shone.
âIf I could gain a clue related to Lyâs evolution through even this quest, that would be niceâ
âWhat kind of que- no, favour?â
At Ianâs question, Shallosâ words immediately continued.
And a quest window popped up.
Ring-.
*b.l.o.o.d.y Fenrir âShallosâ request
b.l.o.o.d.y Fenrir Shallos, the protector of the kin of blood, has been freed from the restraints on his spirit through your help.
He is incredibly grateful towards you.
However, his brother has not been able to be freed from the restraints on his spirit and is suffering.
With the information received from Shallos as the foundation, letâs liberate the restraints of the spirit of âOrvilâ, Shallosâ brother as well as a Dark Fenrir, a kin of the night.
Quest Difficulty Level: S
Quest Condition: User that has liberated the spirit of b.l.o.o.d.y Fenrir âShallosâ
Time Limit: None
Reward â Unknown
Ianâs two eyes rounded as soon as the quest window opened.
âS-rank? This is an S-rank?â
At the difficulty level that he was seeing for the first time while playing Kailan, Ian was momentarily engulfed by confliction.
âIf itâs an S-rank quest I think Iâve read somewhere in the community not long ago that a lv 130 ranker failed a quest as well.â
However, to just reject it, his regret for having lost the chance to evolve Ly just a moment ago was too big.
At the end of a moment of hesitation, Ian ended up accepting the quest.
âThatâs right, thereâs no time limit either, so might as well give it a try.â
âAlright, Iâll try and help.â
As Ian accepted the quest, Shallosâ expression brightened noticeably.
âSure, well Iâll try.â
âAlthough I donât know if Iâll be able to do it.
And Shallosâ words continued.
The Forlas Cliff that he was talking about was the endless cliff that unfolded in front of Ianâs eyes before he entered the pa.s.sageway.
Ian listened intently to Shallosâ words.
As there was no significantly complicated content, though, there was no need to write it down.
Ian, who felt doubtful, asked.
âIkael? Is he human?â
Shallos responded.
âI see. But didnât you say that you guys have been locked up for over 100 years? Will a human still be alive?â
At Ianâs question, Shallos slowly nodded his head.
After taking a moment to catch his breath, he slowly opened his mouth.
Ian and Harin left Shallos and walked to the end following the pa.s.sageway.
âBut Jinsung, wouldnât it be better to just keep hunting here for now until our first discovererâs buff is over?â
At Harinâs extremely justifiable question, Ian nodded his head as he responded.
âThatâs right. Thatâs also what I was planning on doing. He said that thereâs a place called Ollibus Village once we get out of this pa.s.sageway. Iâm going to go there and buy a Return Stone as well as do maintenance before coming back to hunt again.â
âI see.â
About ten minutes later, at the end of quickly hunting the monsters that appeared in the latter half of the pa.s.sageway and moving accordingly, the two people were able to exit out of the place.
âWow! It actually was a coast!â
As they came out of the pa.s.sageway, the endless sea and horizon caught the two peopleâs eyes.
Ian was no different in admiration.
âWow Is even the sea actually materialized?â
Because Colonar Continent, the land that you first step on when you first start Kailan, was closed off on three sides as it was surrounded by maps, there was not one user in Kailan that had seen the âseaâ yet.
Before the northern continent was open, all four sides were cut off from the beginning, but from the last patch, the map opened up and the north had become accessible.
On top of that, even the fact that the northern continent was connected to the sea was first discovered through Ian.
And sure enough, the first discovererâs reward popped up in front of Ian and Harinâs eyes.
Ring-.
Instead of her type Affinity increasing, Harinâs understanding on seafood cooking ingredients increased by 5%.
The two people, who had gained Fame and stats for free, followed the waterfront and moved north while in a good mood.
And just like Shallos said, they were soon able to discover âOllibus Seash.o.r.e Villageâ.
âWhoa, thereâs actually a village here in such a secluded area.â
At Ianâs words that he said to himself out loud, Harin agreed.
âNo kidding. On top of that, the villageâs size is also on the quite large side.â
At her words, there was something that suddenly flashed through Ianâs mind all of a sudden.
âBy any chance, if itâs a village that hasnât been discovered yet, could it be that it doesnât have an affiliated nation or guild?â
If it was a village that was in an independent state, it basically meant that it corresponded with the words that he could immediately register this place as the Lotus Guildâs new base.
Ian immediately checked the information of Ollibus Village.
*Ollibus
Category: Seash.o.r.e Village (Independent)
Rank: Village
Area: 5582 m2
Population: 1995 people
Ollibus is a village at the north end of the seash.o.r.e.
s.h.i.+pbuilding and fishery is well-developed here.
Value of Territory: 2758
Detailed Information (Expand)
âIndependent! Itâs actually independent!â
Ianâs expression was full of complete excitement.
This was because, amongst the independent bases that had been discovered in the northern continent up until now, there was no place that was as big in size and as developed as this one.
On top of that, as itâs rank was also at the âVillageâ-rank, if they could just take it in, it would become a big help to the guild.
Ian hurriedly pulled out the Seal of the Lord from his inventory.
âBase occupation!â
However, unexpected system messages popped up in order in front of Ianâs eyes, who was grinning from ear to ear as he spread out his seal.
