Looking Forward to Another World

Chapter 291: Third Dimensional Travel

Night quickly arrived.

After Riezel and Yuri wrapped up their tea chat, Riezel informed Ain and Ian, asking them to notify others that, starting today, he would no longer set up an arena outside the Frenzel residence to accept challenges.

Ain and Ian seemed quite regretful about this, but they still followed Riezel's instruction and made the announcement.

Undoubtedly, this was bound to stir up quite a commotion in the royal capital, making the already bustling city even more lively.

Of course, this had little to do with Riezel, who was about to leave.

What he needed to focus on right now was preparing for his upcoming journey—or rather, for the dimensional travel before it.

As night fell, Riezel quickly finished his dinner, hurriedly washed up, and then returned to his room to get ready for another dimensional travel.

However, this dimensional travel would be different from the previous two.

From now on, he no longer needed to worry about his unconscious body being left behind in this world since he now had an attendant who would protect it while he went through dimensional travel.

"Master, I'm here."

After visiting Riezel's room the night before, Lizbeth made her appearance again.

She still looked like she had just come out of the bath and, of course, was dressed just as lightly as before.

"I have something to ask of you, Lizbeth."

Riezel forced himself to keep his gaze from wandering to places it shouldn't go, cleared his throat, and spoke seriously to Lizbeth.

"P-Please go ahead!"

Seeing Riezel's serious expression, Lizbeth immediately got nervous.

"Okay, just relax."

Saying this, Riezel realized he had messed up.

He had wanted to be serious so that Lizbeth would take what he was about to say seriously, but instead, he made her nervous, which could backfire, leaving him feeling helpless.

In the end, it took a while for him to calm her down and explain the situation.

"Next, I will be sleeping here for a day to do a special training."

Riezel explained what he was going to do in this way.

"Special training...?" Lizbeth tilted her head sideways, looking puzzled.

"Umu."

Riezel nodded seriously.

"During this time, I'll be completely unconscious and won't respond to anything, so no matter what you try, you won't be able to wake me up, which is definitely a very dangerous thing."

"That's why I need you to stay in this room and protect me closely for the next day."

"How? Can you do it?"

Riezel's question naturally prompted an immediate response from Lizbeth.

"Of course!" Lizbeth responded firmly at first, but then her confidence seemed to wane. "But… can I really do it?"

In truth, staying in this room to protect her master wasn't a problem, but whether she could actually keep him safe remained doubtful.

Even though she had just received the Sword Master Medal and was newly appointed as a Sword Master, she still felt insecure and not good enough.

Given this, if they encountered a powerful enemy, would she truly be able to protect her master?

Lizbeth wasn't too sure about it.

"Don't worry."

Riezel calmly shook his head.

"You must remember that this is the Frenzel residence, so normally, no one would sneak in. I called you over just to be safe."

"Besides, you shouldn't underestimate yourself. Even among Sword Masters, you're one of the best, just a step below the experienced ones. Have some confidence in yourself so I can rest easy handing everything over to you, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Lizbeth looked at Riezel's encouraging expression, and a surge of courage quickly blossomed in her heart.

"Got it, Master!" Lizbeth replied earnestly. "I will definitely protect you, never leaving your side until you wake up!"

"Great." Riezel suddenly smiled. "In that case, I'll leave it to you."

"Um!"

With Lizbeth's strong response, Riezel lay down on the bed and closed his eyes.

However, he first took out a drop of Loki's blood and let it fall on his forehead, performing a long-awaited status update.

Before long, a mysterious glow and mysterious characters began to appear on his body, leaving Lizbeth beside him in awe.

A few seconds later, his latest status was revealed.

...

Riezel Brynhart

Level 6

STR: I0 → B767

END: I0 → B741

DEX: I0 → A815

AGI: I0 → A837

MAG: I0 → C660

Lightweight: E → D

Swordsman: E → D

Mage: G

Battle Adept: H → G

Fast Attack: I → H

...

Fresh out of the oven, the status report told Riezel that his efforts over the past month, where he faced daily challenges and fought thousands of battles, had not gone to waste.

As a Level 6, his overall basic ability proficiency had surprisingly increased by over 3,500.

Needless to say, achieving such growth in about a month was truly astonishing. If people or the gods from Orario knew about it, they would probably explode from shock.

Other adventurers, even super geniuses like Ais and Ottar, couldn't hope to reach this level of growth after hitting Level 6 without several years of hard work, yet Riezel managed it in just about a month, which wouldn't be unfair to call cheating.

Naturally, since his basic abilities had shown impressive growth, his development abilities were also obviously on the rise, nearly all of them advancing by one rank. Especially the two development abilities, Lightweight and Swordsman, which both reached D-rank.

'I remember in the original work, even Level 7 Ottar only had his highest development ability at E, right?'

Reaching D-rank in development ability was already higher than that of Orario's ultimate weapon.

'Mage didn't improve, huh... that's too bad...'

While both basic and development abilities had significant growth, only Mage remained unchanged in this status update.

It couldn't be helped.

Riezel hadn't used magic or trained in it since he traveled to the world of Demon Slayer. He had been focusing on swordsmanship, using just a sword throughout the challenges at the front of the Frenzel residence.

If he hadn't relied on the Structure System Magic to make his sword each time, this status update might not have shown much growth in MAG at all.

Nevertheless, his MAG was still the least improved among his basic abilities, falling far behind the other four and proving that he had used magic very little recently.

'I need to pay more attention to magic.'

Riezel reminded himself and then directed the transparent cube in his mind.

'Dimensional Magic Cube, activate the dimensional channel.'

As Riezel gave the instruction, the Dimensional Magic Cube in his mind began spinning.

[Instruction received—initiating the activation of the dimensional channel.]

[User is detected carrying unique items from this world—if you wish to bring them, this can be accomplished by consuming dimensional energy.]

[A list of unique items has been compiled—please proceed with your selection.]

[1: Divine Meloe (10)]

[2: ...]

When this message hit Riezel, he finally remembered.

'Almost forgot... to bring any item I just got into dimensional travel, I need to consume dimensional energy for assimilation, right?'

Since this was Riezel's first time needing to take something from the main world, it felt quite sudden for him.

'Ten units of dimensional energy?'

Riezel thought in surprise.

'Sure enough, this pendant isn't cheap...'

An item valued at ten units of dimensional energy was second only to the bottle of Loki's blood in his possession.

Riezel immediately took a quick look at his remaining dimensional energy.

[Dimensional Energy: 213]

When Riezel returned from the world of Demon Slayer, he still had 180 units of dimensional energy left. Given that he had stayed in the Akasha Continent for about a month, totaling 33 days, he had accumulated another 33 units of dimensional energy.

As a result, Riezel's current dimensional energy was 213 units, setting a new historical high.

Riezel immediately chose Divine Meloe, consuming ten units of dimensional energy to assimilate it.

[Selection completed—starting execution.]

[Item assimilation successful.]

[Sufficient dimensional energy—initiating the construction of the dimensional channel.]

[Constructed successfully.]

As Riezel finished assimilating Divine Meloe, the dimensional channel officially began to take shape, with the transparent cube inside his mind breaking down into countless transparent grids, twisting and rotating to form a passage that shot straight into the void of the sea of consciousness.

[Opening the dimensional channel—completed.]

[Collecting information from the dimensional channel—completed.]

[Searching for information that closely matches the world on the other side of the channel from the user's memory—begin organizing.]

[Successfully organized.]

[Connected World: Overlord]

[Time Scale: 1:150]

[Attention, dimensional travel is the descent of consciousness in which the user's consciousness is materialized in another world. While the death of the consciousness after materialization will not affect the user, the dimensional travel will conclude at the time of death.]

[User is advised to act with caution.]

As the final message entered Riezel's mind, he had only one thought left.

'Overlord? Looks like this time it's gonna be fun...'

With this thought, Riezel's consciousness floated like a ghost into the dimensional channel, diving in and disappearing from the Akasha Continent.

"...Master?"

Lizbeth, looking at Riezel, who had completely fallen unconscious, called out to him a few times but received no response.

"Really unconscious..."

Confirming this, Lizbeth's expression grew serious.

Since her master had completely lost consciousness, she knew she had to stay by his side the next day, ensuring his safety no matter what.

'I absolutely cannot let Master down!'

Lizbeth clenched her little fists, motivating herself as she watched Riezel lying on the bed in a deep slumber.

In the next moment, she suddenly crawled under the blanket, diving without hesitation right into Riezel's arms and pulling him into a tight hug while he slept.

'I'll protect Master up close!'

Lizbeth fully embodied this sentiment through her actions, achieving true protection.
