Chapter 109: Tomb Emperor's Drought
Chapter 109: Tomb Emperor's Drought
Harvard and the beautiful damsel took roughly an hour to find a good location to talk.
Luckily, after that point, Snow Lilly and Dasota had already shut off her battlefield design, and all that could be heard was the beeping sound from Harvard's benevolence rising every few minutes. Many had started spreading word that he defeated the Monsoon Kraken and Dragontail Kraken. Of course, for those that saw the Dragontail Kraken and Monsoon Kraken in their human forms, they weren't happy in the least. In fact, every few beeps, he also gained infamy, and it was almost as fast of a rate as his benevolence!
'People would understand if they saw the vision from the underworld. However, it's strange. Why was King Yama in such an attractive outfit when the vision happened? Was she trying to impress someone, or am I mistaken?'
Harvard hadn't had much time to focus on the entire scene with King Yama until right now. When she appeared in the vision before him, she was wearing a rather beautiful, almost gaudy, blue dress with gems spread all over her magnificent body. It was almost like she meant for him to see that vision, and was trying to excite him in some type of way. But she was the king of the underworld, why would she do that?
'You're mistaken Harvard, there is no way one of the rulers of the new expanded universe is into you, haha! Anyways, where is this beautiful woman? Is it a woman? Taking me?"
"My name is Hannah." The woman said with a smile. "I've come here from the Dame Continent like mentioned in order to talk to you Hamlord. I am one of the leaders of the resistance against the Tomb Emperor. Have you heard of him?"
"I'm sorry. My knowledge is specifically limited to Central Continent," Harvard said with a wide smile. "Haha, who is the Tomb Emperor? What does he do?"
Harvard could guess from the words tomb emperor that he was probably an emperor in a desert like area, but anything else was hard to extrapolate. It also sounded like he must have done something horrible, but of course he didn't understand yet!
"The tomb emperor," The beautiful maiden said, "He's trying to build eight tombs. Someone named Grand Death is my leader. He's trying to stop the tomb emperor from gathering the eight children of the haze. However, we are in need of assistance. The tomb emperor has thousands of bosses under his command, and can control them at will. These include world bosses, secret bosses, underground bosses, and sky bosses. I know it sounds like a lot, but the tomb emperor is terrifying! He even made me gain this hideous form! I used to be a man, but now I don't even know what I am! I think I'm a woman, but I can't be sure! I'm too afraid to go to the bathroom to find out!"
"I see," Hamlord said, nodding his head. "Let me guess, are the people in Dame Continent under duress. Specifically, is the Tomb Emperor considered a True NPC? True NPCs won't let a population get experience right until a quest is completed. If that's the case, then can I ask the average level in Dame Continent?"
"Hoh, quite a good guess," The maiden pushed back her black hair and let it spin in the air before it blew over her eyes. Harvard could tell she wasn't used to having long hair before, and spit it out of her mouth before she coughed. "Hoho, yes, you're on to something. The average level in Dame Continent is level 5!"
"Level 5? How can it be so low? Even considering all the Ghost Adventurers who are too scared to level up by normal means, they should at least be level 12!"
Harvard saw a huge opportunity in front of him that he knew he had to take. He realized almost immedaitely that he had to go to dame continent to stop the Tomb Emperor and assist Grand Death, but obviously something didn't seem right!
Boom!
Harvard turned to his side and watched a gigantic piece of crab meat land in front of him. A second later, a claw the size of a bouldercrab crashed into a few trees and slid towards him. A few children, that happened to be wandering around doing something nefarious, instantly paled before Harvard stepped off his back foot and shot towards them.
He instantly picked up a girl and two boys and jumped away from the gigantic sliding claw. It picked up grass as it traveled, and then a second later crashed into a nearby wall.
Boom!
Harvard couldn't help but wipe off his sweat as he put the three kids down. They looked terrified, but not nearly as scared as him! How big was the crab if it's claw was the size of two houses?
'Did-Did the Monsoon Kraken change his mind? Was he playing me this whole time and he's going to attack me again?'
"That's just my allies," The Hannah pointed in the distance at five warriors that seemed to be in the center of a crowd of cheering children. "They-they saved a bunch of children right now, and defeated the Mountain Kraken. They, my friend, are part of GrandDeath's resistance. You will see when you get to Dame Continent. Grand Death will please you beyond measure."
"Very well," Harvard nodded his head, and shook Hannah's hand. It was very big for a woman's hand, but quite tender which made him feel a little strange. "I will go there in a day. After, of course, I go get my third class quest!"
"You-you musn't!" Hannah suddenly looked shocked and appalled. "In just a day, the tomb emperor will send more children to build one of his tombs! Every day, people are screaming! There is also a drought! We need you Hamlord! We need you to save our people! Please! Please come before gathering your third class quest."
'Hmph, I'm not that gullible. Something seems odd,' Harvard smiled and shook his head. "Very well, I will go there at nightfall after I spend some time practicing team work and wrestling. I must be strong, after all, in order to defeat the Tomb Emperor But by the way, what level is the tomb emperor."
"He's only level 60, so you should be fine." Hannah smiled widely, her beautiful teeth appearing before she turn and spun into the wind. "I'm a healer by the way, and would happy to serve you on your journey to the Dame Continent. I promise, with me next to you, you can reach the Dame Continent in less than 3 days. No one will get in your way."
"It look like my ride just arrived!" Harvard smiled and pointed at the Guild Battleship House in the sky. "Of course, you're a little late Katie! You think you could've shown up sooner!"
Hannah smiled and bowed before she said "very well" and left Harvard to his own devices. However, part of her was shocked by Hamlord possessing such a powerful vehicle! She had to let Grand Death know he had a battleship! As far as she knew, only three other guilds possessed one, and this one looked top tier!
"My body do you think I'm a man or a woman now?" Hannah said, turning to look at Harvard one last time. "I mean I know it's strange, but you're a man. What kind of feeling do you get?"
"I get the feeling that you're dangerous in a good way, haha!" Harvard smiled and walked over to the large crab claw. "However, it's now time to wrestle me up some food and drink! I'll try and get the whole guild involved in the wrestling! Especially Tilly's all woman guild! It will be the greatest wrestling session ever!"
"Have fun," Hannah thought he really meant 'wrestling'. "I'll find you as soon as you arrive at the Dame Continent. You can count on that. And by then, I'll be a hundred percent ready to serve as your healer, or even assist you in wrestling women if you'd like."
"I-I I don't know what to say to that," Harvard shook his head. "Anyways, thanks for stopping by! And feel free to go to the Candy Shop before you exit! We need new customers! Especially now that the Monsoon Kraken was defeated!"
"I'll try anything you want," Hannah nodded her head and then slowly walked away.
A few hours later, after the battle, Harvard could still see her walking through Central City.
'Such a strange woman,' Harvard finished wrestling with May Tape and then made his way to Katie for teamwork practice. 'She's really trying to find the candy shop. She makes me worried beyond measure.'
Harvard continued practicing team work for a few more hours until all the women had a turn to play boss.
Yet, he had no idea, that someone was waiting at his door. And that she was not happy that he hadn't come to visit her as well.
"Harvard, if you don't open up this door right now, and accept my quest! I'm going to slap you in the face! You better not betray me, you hear me! Now come here and stop playing with all 5 of those women! You're keeping the neighbors awake!"
