Conquering The Novel

Becoming an A-Rank adventurer wasn't that easy, Aegis will flip over if she saw this, it took her five years to become an A-Rank adventurer and another two-three years to become an S-Rank adventurer...

You need to clear a large number of gates and many other merits like helping during Gate breakouts, subjugation of criminals, or completing any other missions and have accumulated enough fame to become an A-RANK adventure...

I can have access to any gates below S-Level and there are many other perks too.

I came back from my thoughts when I heard Mika's voice,

"Congratulations on becoming the youngest A-Rank adventurer my disciple," she said with a huge grin on her face.

Seeing her grinning I now knew what private talk she had with the poor Guild master,

I pity the Guild master whose name I don't know.....I thought to myself,

"It's all thanks to you master" I replied smiling at her innocently,

*******

Soon we left the adventurer guild and got to where Mika's car was parked, as we entered the car Mika spoke her mind,

"I have some work that I have to do so I will be leaving the floating island tomorrow"

I just looked at her with widened eyes and kept quiet,

I didn't show it on my face but I was quite happy, it's not that I don't like her company but because I was planning on clearing gates to increase my skills proficiency, and in the process if I got hurt even slightly,

Then I don't think there will be Adventurers Guild tomorrow on a floating island, Mika will use them as a scapegoat to vent her anger,

I don't want to repeat the scene that happened in the novel,

Now that I think about it, what will happen to the person that would have been her disciple?

I think I will meet him at the academy, poor bastard....or lucky bastard?

While I was pondering to myself, oblivious to my thoughts Mika spoke again

"Don't worry my disciple I will finish my work as soon as I can and come back to you, I know you will miss me and I will miss you too so don't be sad,"

"Your Master will bring souvenirs for you"

I just replied with, "hm!" And nodded my head,

But in my mind, I was thinking about the soon-to-be or not disciple, if my guess is right she would have met 'that' guy during this trip of her's...,

But I don't know now if she will take him as her disciple or not.

"I will make it up to you by accompanying you to an A-Level gate," Mika said making a bitter smile...

I don't know why she was feeling guilty and making that kind of expression, but I accepted her proposal by nodding my head.

Seeing me agreeing with her she gave me a huge bright smile and drove to where the A-Level gate was located, where she was commissioned by the Adventurer Association.

Adventurer Association is quite different from Adventurer guild, we can find many branches of adventurer guild in every kingdom and the Guild masters of every branch are quite influential figures based on their power, money, and connections anyone can create their guild but they need the approval of Adventurer Association.

And, there is only one Adventurer Association that acts as the headquarters.

After traveling for about 20 minutes we soon arrived at the gate's location...

'This will be my first gate raid in this world and I don't know if it has any similarities to the gates from my previous world', I thought to myself...

************

I got myself dressed in the battle suit which Mika prepared for me,

It was similar to the assassins outfit that assassins usually wear, if I wore a mask I would have looked like an assassin as well,

Sometimes I think Mika is just fulfilling her fetishes by making me wear whatever she wants to see me in, " "

"It's an outfit customized to not restrict any of your movements and it is also enhanced by high-level enhancement magic" Mika spoke in her defense after I gave her a suspicious look...

And I was also equipped with black Katana gifted by Mika with its scabbard hanging on the left side of my waist,

Mika was wearing her usual kimono with the black-white combination that she was wearing when we first met with two katanas hanging on her left waist.

As we got ourselves equipped we went inside the gate directly, many other adventures were guarding the gate but no one stopped us, of course, they know who Mika Amami was.

As soon as we entered the gate the whole scenery and the temperature changed,

Amid a snowfall, we can only see the forest and a huge old creepy-looking fortress covered in snow which was far away from us and we have to cross the forest to reach there...

The temperature didn't bother me much because of my enhanced outfit and of course, Mika wouldn't be affected by it.

We then decided to move forward inside the forest...

To clear a gate we have two choices, one is to destroy the source of the gate which is also known as the heart of the gate or our second choice is to kill every monster present in the gate...

The second option is not that practical because the monsters will respawn every next day, so you have to kill every monster before they re-spawn.

But Of course, it's possible if you are Mika Amami or someone as strong as her...

Soon we reached the depth of the forest but we still hadn't encountered any monsters, which is not a good sign because that means all of the monsters are gathered in one place and must be preparing for a breakout or planning on summoning a high-rank general type monster, and it would be quiet difficult for any normal A-Rank adventurers to deal with them as the general type monsters are usually S-Rank, and also because of there numbers...

But for strong adventurers like Mika, it is a treat as they can deal with all of them at once...

As we were moving forward we finally reached the end of the forest and not that far away from us we saw a huge fortress covered in ice I think all the monsters were gathered there, the fortress could hold around 2-3 thousand monsters...

The gate breakout occurs when the monster exceeds the number of monsters a Gate could hold,

If you left the gate uncleared for a long period as the population of monsters increases and reached the gate's source limit then the breakout occurs,

And I don't need to say what they are doing inside that fortress now to cause a breakout, they may be trying to summon a high-level monster..... or they may be increasing their population by breeding?

I shook my head to get out of my thoughts and was planning how to attack the fortress...

I looked toward Mika and asked her opinion,

"Master how should we enter the fortress," I asked looking towards the fortress not far away from us...

Mika just tilted her head slightly as if questions marks appeared above her head,

"What do you mean my disciple, isn't the answer obvious" she answered while making an expression of someone who heard something idiotic...

I turned towards her and squinted my eyes as if asking for her explanation...

"Ok, let me show you," Mika said and unsheathed both of her katana's holding one in each hand,

She moved both her katana forward by keeping her arms straight and made a cross sign using both her katana's and applied her element of fire,

Both katana were now covered in fire, then she forced her strength out of her swords and attacked towards the fortress...,

The fire overlapped with each other making a cross sign and moved forward at a fast pace while obliterating everything that came into its path and finally hit the fortress wiping its whole existence,

Even after destroying the fortress the attack didn't stop and continued moving forward until it hit the huge mountain covered in snow which was far behind the fortress,

The attack destroyed that whole mountain leaving only fire all around and just debris and aftermath fire could be seen through the path of the attack...

Throughout this process, I just saw the fire that was destroying everything in its path, as if I was bewitched by it I couldn't move my gaze even for a split second not wanting to miss any scene and destruction caused by the attack...

Soon the exit gate appeared behind us, signaling the clearing of the gate...

With my eyes still in a shocking state, I asked Mika in a dazed voice..,

"What type of monsters do you think we're in this gate, Master"

Mika who was still looking at the beautiful scene caused by her attack answered, while still looking at the scene...,

"Who cares"

Saying those words she turned around and left the gate while signaling me to follow behind her.

I looked at her back while she was leaving then turned my head towards where the fortress was, where now the fire was still engulfing everything...

I stayed there alone watching the engulfing fire for a few minutes, and soon turned around and left the gate.

'i didn't even have the chance to fight even after equipping myself with high-enhanced equipment, I was just like a mannequin for Mika to admire', I thought to myself slightly shaking my head while leaving the gate...
