Chapter 607: Back in Champion’s Den

Souta glanced at the piece of paper on top of the table.

“Take a look at it,” Carmel said with a smile.

“I understand.” Souta nodded before he stretched out his hand. He read the contents of the paper.

They will receive seven low-grade health potions and three mid-grade health potions every week.

They will also receive seven low-grade mana potions and three mid-grade potions every week.

Aside from those things, they will receive two low-grade strength potions and two low-grade speed potions every week.

This was their reward aside from promoting their squadron. The resources from advancing their squadron rank weren’t included with it.

“Did you like it?” Carmel asked.

“Yes, sir,” Souta answered politely.

“It’s nothing. It’s your reward for capturing a person related to Red Matter.” Carmel waved his hand.

“Sir, I just want to ask what happened to Dukedom of Halbun,” Souta said. He had no idea what happened after he left the city a few days ago.

“The Athen’s Champion supported the dukedom to rise once again. It will be called Halbun City and we will choose a reliable person among the survivors to become its city lord.” Carmel tapped his finger on the table before he added, “Among the two hundred thousand survivors there should be one person suitable for the position. If not, then we will have to arrange someone in our ranks.”

“I see…” Souta nodded in understanding.

“Do you have any more questions?” Carmel asked.

“Nothing, sir.”

“You can go now.”

Souta, Alice, and Eztein left Carmel’s office. They went straight to the room of Astros Circle.

“Oh~ we can finally rest…” Eztein said with a satisfied look after he sat down on the sofa.

“Don’t say that or else Souta will start training us once again,” Alice said to Eztein.

“Ooopps!!” Eztein quickly covered his mouth before glancing at Souta.

Souta ignored the two of them before he sat down on the corner and took out the transmission talisman in his pocket.

He called Torkez who was in the main base of Astros.

“Torkez, what’s the situation there?” Souta asked.

“Everything is moving according to your instruction. We’ve also finished renovating the dungeon, our second headquarters.” Torkez explained everything in detail.

They could easily send supplies to the second headquarters thanks to the Object Teleportation that Eilish set up. It took her one day to set up that magic circle and it was pretty good even though it couldn’t transfer living creatures.

The only problem was that it needed energy to keep it active. Although it’s permanent, it still needed energy for its effect to not disappear. If the Object Teleportation’s energy source had disappeared, then they wouldn’t be able to use it again. They will need someone to fix it again.

“Good job.” Souta paused and said, “Dispatch Franklin, Yenxia, and Isabella here. Tell them to meet me in Champion’s Den.”

“Are they the only ones that you need? What about the materials?” Torkez inquired.

“Yes, they are the only ones for now as for materials I currently don’t need them. Oh, right? I forgot. Bring all the fifth evolution stage monster orbs in my room.” Souta said.

“I understand. I will immediately dispatch them.” Torkez nodded.

“Good.”

Souta and Torkez continued to talk about the situation in the headquarters.

…

Several days had passed…

Eztein was standing in front of the gate of the Champion’s Den.

“When are they going to arrive here? I’m getting bored.”

He yawned with a tired look. Souta asked him to wait for Franklin, Yenxia, and Isabella in this place. It was an easy task and he couldn’t disobey his boss so he had no choice but to come here.

“We should’ve recruited some people for this kind of job.”

He muttered before he sat down on the corner looking at the people entering the gate of the city.

‘Still… I never thought that a city like this existed back then.’

The power that this city holds was several times larger than the combined strength of his world. He couldn’t imagine something like this before.

Also, the weapons, armors, and potions here were all extraordinary. Even the combat arts and spells here couldn’t be compared to what he learned in his home world.

He was lucky that Souta and Alice taught him some of the combat arts they knew before coming here or else he would have a hard time keeping up with the people of this world.

Sigh…

He sighed deeply while turning his attention to the guards.

Ares’ Warriors.

One of the strongest God’s Legion in Champion’s Den.

‘Even these four guards are already at the peak of S-rank.’

While he was observing the guards, Eztein heard someone call his name.

“Oi, Eztein, We’re already here. You’re not paying attention to your surrounding.”

He turned his head and saw three people approaching him.

They were Franklin, Yenxia, and Isabella.

He stood up and complained, “You’re already here. I’ve been waiting here since forever. I felt like I was going to lose my mind.”

“Oho, I’m just a bag of old bones. Don’t expect an old man to move faster.” Franklin laughed lightly.

‘Tsk! Do you think that I didn’t know that you tried to go on a long path just to fight some monsters on the way here?’ Eztein said inwardly.

“Sorry for making you wait.” Isabella made an awkward expression.

Yenxia just looked at him without saying anything.

Eztein sighed and said, “Well, let’s go. Boss is waiting for your arrival.”

Franklin looked at the city gate and squinted his eyes, “This city is really different from others. I could feel several high energy levels coming from it.”

“Well, some of the people here didn’t even bother to hide their power level,” Eztein said while scratching the back of his head. He started walking towards the city gate.

The three followed him while looking around.

They easily entered the city gate. Eztein just showed his Athen’s Champion’s emblem and the guards inspect their belongings before they let them enter without a problem.

…

Inside the headquarters of Astros Squadron in Athen’s Champion…

Souta was sitting on a chair and opposite of him was Franklin.

“Here’s the coffee.”

Isabella approached the table and placed cups of coffee in front of them.

“Thanks.”

Souta held the cup with his hand and smell the fragrance coming from it. After tasting the coffee, he glanced at Franklin and asked, “So where’s the thing?”

“Oh,”

Franklin picked up a bag on his side and took out several spheres with different colors. He placed the spheres on the table and somehow the atmosphere had changed.

The energy exuding from each sphere was oppressing. After all, they were monster orbs of fifth evolution stage monsters.

Each one was like a powerful energy battery that could supply an entire city for a long time.

“Good.”

Souta smiled as he held one of the monster orbs and placed it close to his face.

With this, he could expand his energy capacity once again. And depending on its usage, it could help him in a battle just like how it did when he fought the Clan Leader of the Witch Clan.

“I’m satisfied.”

Souta glanced at Franklin and then at Isabella before falling his eyes at Yenxia. He was checking their power level with his [Galaxy Eyes]. Nothing would be able to escape his eyes unless they had secret artifacts.

“Franklin, Isabella. You two should take the Athen’s Champion’s Examination and join my squadron.”

“I understand.”

“Okay.”

The two already guessed why Souta asked them to come here in Champion’s Den from the beginning.

“But before that let me test your combat prowess first…”

Souta said to them before he stood up.

Franklin already reached the initial stage of S-rank while Isabella reached the high stage of A-rank. It would be a matter of time before she achieved the peak stage.

The two followed Souta to the training ground. In that place, Souta tested their combat prowess to see if they could pass the examination of their power level in Athen’s Champion.

He fought the two of them for several rounds. Isabella was doing great as she tried to erase her presence while Franklin was busy fighting Souta in a close-range combat.

Franklin was a genius in close-range battles. His quick decisions, instincts, and experience were considerably high.

But the person he was wary the most was Isabella. Isabella had a low power level and she was still an inexperienced fighter but… She was dangerous.

She was just hiding in the surroundings waiting for the right time to attack Souta. And when she attacked at the right opportunity, she dealt considerable damage to him.

She was just like a hunter, no, an assassin waiting in the dark to swiftly end her target.

The thing that raised her attack to the limit was the properties of her skills.

Armor penetration and energy penetration were both high. She also had a skill that could ignore her opponent’s armor and energy armor.

This was the reason why she could kill people at a higher level than her. No matter how high her opponent’s armor and energy armor, if her attacks ignore it then it would be useless.

The legacy of God of Hunt was extraordinary.
