Chapter 23: Mission Start!



Chapter 23: Mission Start!

"Rushing towards our death? Hey! Looks like you also can put out some good jokes! Nevertheless, our answer won't change." Without a hint of worry, Aniela jested towards Giel.

Her bright smile spelled no hesitation about facing this perilous deadly mission. And along with Darcel, the two walked up to the bulletin board to claim their mission.

Each step they took only highlighted their distinct qualities even more. Darcel didn't bother to glance at anyone else once, taking his eyes off from Giel, only focusing on their upcoming battles.

Aniela's eyes casually darted around the mission center. All eyes on the two, she took in with massive strides. Her bubbling excitement only increased with each mock thrown against her.

Giel and the students did nothing to stop the duo. If they really want to run into death, why should they care enough to stop them? This way too, all of the duo's hot gas will be blown up to smoke!

"I wonder if they'll even make it halfway to the Goblin Nest."

"Yea, I bet they probably come crawling back to Giel in just a day!"

Kicking down on seamlessly ignorant and too confident targets would always be a delightful treat for any students there. Darcel and Aniela were one of many with a high amount of pride.

And like most with this kind of pride, they'll get slapped back to reality!

While the students and Giel had their all kinds of disdaining thoughts, Darcel and Aniela walked up to the mission center's Elder. With the paper in hand, Darcel showed it to a sharp-looking middle-aged man.

He, of course, was watching the whole exchange between these students. And frankly, the mission Elder didn't have such a narrow view of the duo like these students.

Being far more experienced, the mission Elder could tell the duo fight with Gorga and Boldog was a bit more complicated than them suppressing their realms.

There was an odd premonition that seemed to just naturally radiate from these two. It's why when he saw Darcel holding the mission in front of his face, the Elder decided to warn them.

"Must you two go so hard for this? As a fair warning, not even our number ranked initiate students can beat this mission. The number ranks are the cream of the corp at this level, shouldn't this set some bells off for you two?"

Now Darcel and Aniela can admit it. They were slightly surprised this Elder did decide to fairly warn the two. Not out of disrespect but because he simply didn't know of their real prowess.

Smirking at the Elder, Darcel told him, "The only bells we got were those ranked students seemed to lack our special abilities."

"Exactly! They are them, and we are we! You'll also see the eye-opening lesson of our abilities!" Aniela backed Darcel up, blasting out her chipper energy to the mission Elder.

Looking at the duo's stubborn, unchanging faces, the mission Elder forced out a sigh. If they still don't want to listen even after official advice, they can't complain about meeting a disastrous end.

"So be it. Take this ring with you. Once you kill Extreme Order to Perfect Order Goblins, this ring will automatically record your achievements." It was a light purple ring that the mission Elder handed out to Darcel.

Putting the ring on his finger, Darcel could immediately tell this one differs from the average spatial ring. It holds a unique kind of energy, clearly made by ones talented in this kind of field.

Darcel and Aniela had then taken a look over at each other.

They ignored all irrelevant comments and focused on their own mental state. With no words spoken, they determinedly nodded and turned to leave the mission center.

Under disdainful eyes and mocking comments, the duo held their heads up, keeping their calm, even steps while walking. Though when heading out, Darcel and Aniela felt...something.

They didn't know what, and the feeling went as soon as it came. It was like the feeling of being silently watched. Barely their eyebrows wrinkled, yet all they really could sense was just these ignorant youths.

Quickly they pushed this feeling away and continued their track to this apparently dangerous Goblin nest.

Watching them leave, nobody noticed it, but Giel's eyes gained an ominous glint. Really for a bunch of nobodies, their arrogance is rather high. But in the end, there are still just a bunch of lucky outsiders.

Lucky outsiders that Giel was sure no one would miss if they had suddenly disappeared on this mission. His smile turned vicious as he was sure Gorga would receive the ultimate compensation after their mission.

And unknown to all, even the mission Elder there. A hidden mysterious presence had observed the entire exchange, even down to the ominous intent of Giel

.

Just a few miles away from the Necroptic City, Darcel and Aniela were carefully pacing themselves. From the paper, Darcel picked up it held the directions of exactly where this Goblin nest was.

And apparently, it was only some miles away from the Necroptic City, just edging near the outskirts of the Necropolis Woods.

Only a couple of hours passed during their walk out of the city and on a specific path of the vast grassy plains. There weren't many other humans walking their way, making this a nice pleasant walk.

Even when their destination would be a not so pleasant place. Thinking more about the Goblin nest, Darcel spoke up to Aniela, saying, "This Goblin nest...these creatures should be wild and barbaric. But they are incredibly useful in stealing human treasures by kidnapping. This is a literal goldmine for us."

Darcel had a rare excited tone in his voice. How could he not anyways? Since no strong cultivator bothers to wipe these Goblins out, they surely would have accumulated enough resources over their years.

Resources that are silently waiting for him and Aniela to pick up. This idea had also pepped up Aniela as she told him,

"Very soon, we're going to be saying goodbye to that small initiate level room and hello to our expansive middle-level room!" Though she says small, that initiate level room was anything but small.

"Plus, we'll be able to efficiently deal with that, Giel. When we come back and take our crystals from him, he for sure won't let this incident go."

"If only his brain wasn't so closed off...then maybe he'll be able to keep that small face he has left. Sadly he's just...too...eager!"

Casually talking like this, the duo soon near the outskirts of the Necropolis Woods. The glossy black woods appeared just a couple of miles from them, but the pair kept their eyes focus.

Before taking a foot further, the two had stopped dead in their tracks.

By the map, they were approaching the Goblin nest yet the duo knew better than to rush in. Closing their eyes, they expanded out their Spirit Senses.

Focusing on the direction leading to the nest, the duo sensed two early order Qi Formation Sea beings hiding well in the glossy black trees.

The path they were overseeing gave the beings intel on who would dare trek forth there.

Darcel and Aniela assumed these two beings had to be...goblins! Their signatures weren't quite like ordinary Spirit Monsters, yet they weren't as developed as humans.

Plus, these two were directly on the path leading to the Goblin nest. Basically, spelling out this was the correct way to go.

And these goblins were going to be the first kill of their mission. Despite being a couple miles away, Aniela still held up two fingers, covering them in a white glow.

"See if you can track this, Darcy~." Aniela teased out as two small pebbles were entrapped in a white glow. Slowly she made the pebbles float up, and her senses concentrated on those two hiding goblins.

For only a single second, Aniela went still. Darcel was wondering what this girl was planning when suddenly she had flicked her two white glowing fingers out!

'Swish!'

Only the slight rustling of wind was heard on that plain. But Darcel was quite surprised by Aniela. Focusing his Spirit Sense on those two goblins, there was no sign of life coming from them anymore.

Silent, fast and deadly!

Even if it was against pathetically weak early order Qi Formation Sea beings, this kind of attack certainly took precise precision and control.

"Quickly, let's go. And nice job, airhead." Darcel told her, and they promptly sped off to the trees with the dead goblins. The distance of a couple of miles was crossed in mere seconds by them.

Making it to the trees, the duo saw on the ground two dead goblins. Both were quite nasty looking. They had this grotesque green color skin, razor-sharp teeth, and bulging muscular bodies.

Their heights were only slightly above theirs, and they wore this strange type of green pants.

The most noticeable thing about them was at the center of their foreheads, was a small bloody hole that shot through their heads.

"I didn't think these kinds of creatures would have a base intelligence for keeping lookout...this only getting more interesting," Aniela remarked as she stopped and spread out her Spirit Sense on their current path.

The duo was now surrounded by the Necropolis trees, but it didn't mean their visions were limited.

From just a few meters away, beginning down this path was a small batch of early to middle-order Qi Formation sea goblins.

Darcel and Aniela traded glances and nodded. With fire blaring at their feet, the two focused extra Qi into their legs.

'Hua!'

With blazing speed, Darcel and Aniela blasted right to the batch of goblins! Instantaneously their eyes soon met with five goblins, all wielding this decently sized green club.

This group of goblins was just having their daily outing of finding any humans or prey to eat. Until...the air around them became this uncomfortable hot temperature!

But none of the goblins could question why. Primarily because of two youths appearing out of thin air right in front of their faces! Not a single one could sense or even react to this crazy speed.

'Ssssch!!'

Coating their hands in black fire, Darcel and Aniela fists roar to the two middle-order levels goblin.

Like these beings were made up of paper, their fire fists brutally tore through mouths, blasting out blood everywhere.

The raging black flames instantly rampaged through their bodies, quickly frying them inside out.

Instantly the middle order goblins perished with one move. And the early order goblins were frightened out of their wits! There wasn't even a chance to scream!

But their swift nightmare wasn't over yet.

Holding out two her fingers, Aniela shot two roaring black fireballs through the early order goblins head. Effortlessly, the goblins died on impact as the black fireballs burned their brains.

Darcel was more direct with his kill. Using his same speed, he flashed to the other terrified early order goblin. And with his same fist, Darcel tore his fist through the goblin mouth, causing a more bloody kill.

Taking a moment, the duo felt like a fish in water!

Cutting loose like this felt refreshing and free. Combined with their rising intent to fight even more of these goblins, Darcel and Aniela knew this was going to be a good time.

Swiftly their heads snapped up head, and down this long path, the two sensed had now sensed two late orders goblins heading their way.

These goblins managed to sense two humans there, along with this weird increase in temperature!

They were just randomly searching, but it seems their luck had gone up today. It was only a shame their thoughts differ from reality.

The distance between them and the duo was only another few meters. And Darcel and Aniela wonder just how badly will later order beings fare against them.

'Hua!'

Their legs blasted off again with insane speed! This time, the goblins who appeared in the duo's eyes were slightly larger than the others. But they would still fall the same.

"Gwa?!?"

Having a bit faster reaction time than the other goblins, the two late orders did manage to stumble out voices of surprise. The air became too warm, and the aura before them was too mighty!

Hastily the goblins tried to smack these kids out of their faces. However, how could their pitiful speed compare to the likes of Darcel and Aniela?

'Chi!'

And just like the other goblins, Darcel and Aniela black fire fists pierce through their mouths like tofu. The scorching black fire had immediately run through their entire body.

With little to no resistance, these late order Goblins died in a single punch.

"Like I expected, as our cultivation improves, our base prowess will only get stronger," Darcel remarked. At the same time, his Darkness absorbed any dirty blood on him.

"Still, it seems like the real party begins at that final cave of the goblins. Any Perfect Qi Formation sea group can tear up this place like us. Let's go!"

Aniela was getting pumped up the second stretching out her prowess.

And with one last shared look, the duo blasted down this goblin path, ready to kill any goblins that get in their way.
