Chapter 19 Daily Quest
The days passed. Billy and Lt. Boartusk still haven't returned to the bunker. Erend spent time in the bunker meditating continuously.
He felt there was no need to do physical exercise because his body was already strong enough.
The problem he's been having all this time is about MP which is always lacking. So it's only natural that Erend does training to increase his MP.
[ MP: 50 ]
Seeing that his MP had increased many times from its original amount, Erend smiled. It turns out that exercises like this are very useful. It was simple and easy, and meditation can also make him easier in fighting.
The elf kept their promise by not attacking again. The soldiers began to think that the war was over. Erend then tells them that they are given five months to do something. And during that time the Elves would not attack. Unfortunately, Erend couldn't say the reason.
[ "Daily Quests will appear now. Failing to do so will result in consequences." ]
Tut's voice suddenly echoed in his head while Erend was enjoying a cup of coffee in front of the bunker.
'What should I do?' asked Erend through his mind. At least he understood a little about the Daily Quest. Erend just didn't know what to do to comply with Systema's wishes.
[ "You have to go to another Realm to do it." ]
'What?' Erend frowned. 'I can't do it here?' 𝘧r𝗲𝑒𝔀𝘦𝙗𝓃oν𝑒l.𝐜𝗼m
[ "You are a Dragon. What do you think you can do here?" ]
Erend thought that what Tut said was true. This world was no longer a suitable place to use his power.
'Well, where should I go then?'
[ "Are you ready to go now?" ]
'Wait.'
Erend went back into the bunker and then returned to his room. He locked the door tightly.
'I'm ready now.'
[ "Okay." ]
Suddenly an energy vortex appeared in front of him. The energy vortex was blue at the edges and white at the center.
"I just have to come in here?"
[ "Yes." ]
Erend stepped inside the vortex. The sensation he felt was like falling suddenly from a high place. Erend immediately shouted unconsciously because of the sudden event.
Lights of various colors flashed before his eyes like street lamps passing by quickly. He didn't know how long he had been in that tunnel of light before suddenly everything stopped.
His feet hit the ground and he was already in the middle of a road. Erend looked around. Forests and mountains lined the surroundings. He saw nothing but forests and mountains.
"Where am I?"
[ "This is the Eternal Earth Realm. A world that is almost the same as yours. You could say that this is a different version of the world you live in." ]
"Parallel worlds?!" Erend couldn't believe it.
[ "Yes. It's the same earth. But it's not just humans living here. Dwarves, Faery, Witch, Lizardman, etc. Basically, this is a fantasy world you've read about in novels." ]
"Humans live here too?"
[ "Yes. But humans are not the most dominant beings like in your world. In this world, many things are stronger than humans." ]
Erend's eyes widened at Tut's explanation. He still couldn't grasp the reality of where he was now.
"Is this the same place where the Elves are?" asked Erend.
[ "Yes. But the Elf kingdom is very far from here. You don't have to worry." ]
"That's not what I'm worried about. The fact that parallel worlds do exist is quite astonishing."
[ "Yes. I understand. Now start walking." ]
"Where to?"
[ "Just go straight ahead." ]
"Oh okay." Erend started walking.
He saw nothing ahead but a road that went up and down again so that the end could not be seen. A few minutes later Erend saw a village.
The village was small and only surrounded by a wooden fence. But no one was seen in the village even though it was still daylight. It was as if the village was dead.
"That's a village," said Erend.
[ "Yes. But that's not your goal. Your goal is a Goblin camp to the east of the village." ]
Erend's brow furrowed hearing that. Suspicion rose in his mind. "Wait. why should I go to the Goblin camp?"
[ "Your Daily Quest is to kill those Goblins." ]
"What?!"
[ "Don't be so surprised. You've been able to kill the Daemon of Calamity and beat up an Elf prince. Goblins shouldn't be a problem for you, right?" ]
"Oh, you're right."
Then Tut gave directions to Erend to the Goblin camp. Once there, Erend observed the camp from behind the bushes.
There were approximately twenty Goblins in the camp. The creature was green and small in stature. Their ears are also pointed but longer than the Elves. 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨m
Among them was a Goblin wielding a staff with a body fatter than the rest. Around his neck, the fat Goblin wore a necklace made of the skulls of small creatures.
'What should I do?' Erend began to speak his mind to Tut. But Tut didn't answer. Instead, a notification appeared in front of him.
[ Daily Quest: Kill 25 Goblins threatening Rotti Village. ]
[Rewards: 50 Exp. ]
Erend blinked a few times then read the notification. Now Erend understands why the village looks like a dead village. It was all because of the Goblins in this camp.
'Well, okay then.' Erend didn't think much and started observing the camp. Figuring out how to kill the Goblins.
He didn't carry a weapon, but now he had quite a bit of MP. The goblins also looked like weak creatures. Maybe they were just a little fast because of their small bodies. But that won't be a big problem.
There was nowhere to sneak attack because they were encamped in the vast plains of grass. That means Erend can only attack directly.
Erend stood up from his place and then immediately ran towards the camp. In an instant, he was right behind one of the Goblins.
The goblin turned and his eyes widened at Erend who was charging toward him.
"KHHAAA!!!" The goblin shouted like an alarm warning the entire herd. Finally, all the Goblins in the camp realized Erend's existence.
The screaming Goblin was about to draw his sword. But Erend wouldn't let him do that.
[ Skill activated: Dragon Claw (Lv.1) ]
Erend's hands turned into reddish scaly claws. Then Erend slashed his claws at the Goblin.
'CRAAT!'
Erend's claws destroyed the Goblin's head. The Goblin's body fell to the ground limply.
Erend stood staring at the group of angry Goblins with a face covered in blood. He didn't wait long before picking up the Goblin sword he had just killed and lunged at the other Goblins.
