Chapter 395  Heading Out

"It\'s morning already," I muttered as the sun\'s rays filtered through the window of the wooden house, illuminating the room.

I had been so absorbed in alchemy that I lost track of time. I suppose I can\'t be blamed since I don\'t follow a strict schedule in this alternate world.

Then again, my sense of time is distorted, so these things hold little meaning for me.

Time no longer seemed to matter.

No.

It was simply that time was just time, and whatever occurred during those moments happened.

In other words, I felt myself gradually becoming someone who simply went with the flow.

Not the wisest approach, I must admit, but this was the real world, not my old world. I was free to do as I pleased, and that\'s precisely what I intended to do.

Regardless, I was quite content with my sleepless night of alchemy.

In the end, I managed to create some pills. With practice, I became more adept and filled several bottles with rank 1 health, mana, and stamina pills.

weapon. Not a dagger this time, but weapons like swords, sabers, and spears. I even contemplated crafting runic armor, but That marked the beginning of my alchemy session, the simplest part before delving into another aspect of alchemy I hadn\'t explored in a while: runes.

Initially, I had been intrigued by the idea of creating a runic weapon. Not a dagger this time, but weapons like swords, sabers, and spears. I even contemplated crafting runic armor, but eventually dismissed the notion.

I was no longer in the alternate dimension where time was limitless, so I decided to focus on something else I had previously created—

runic explosives.

There were two types of runic explosives I could make: the ignite runic explosive, which caused limited damage within a specific range, and the explode runic explosive. The names themselves revealed the runes used for each.

The ignite runic explosive employed the ignite rune, while the explode runic explosive utilized the explode rune. These were relatively simple runes that I could now create with ease.

My growing experience and the assistance of my title enabled me to learn faster.

Unfortunately, I wasn\'t currently in my familiar environment in the alternate world, making it unsuitable for experimenting with something new. Anything could happen in this unfamiliar place.

Nevertheless, I managed to produce 15 ignite runic explosives and 8 explode runic explosives.

The number would have been higher had I not become too engrossed in creating pills. I can attribute that to the time difference in the alternate world. I had an abundance of time at my disposal, allowing me to pursue whatever I pleased without much regard for the passage of time.

However, that was not my concern at the moment. I began tidying up the wooden house I occupied. I had made a bit of a mess, and it was becoming uncomfortable to stay in such a confined space with clutter around me.

"I want to go back to the alternate world," I thought before recalling that interesting things were unfolding in the true world.

I suppose I\'ll stay a while longer, then.

With thoughts like these swirling in my mind, I proceeded to clean the entire room and returned all the items I had taken back into my storage ring, restoring the room to its original layout when I first entered.

Once that was done, I stepped out of the wooden house to witness the settlement bathed in the early morning glow.

Right in front of the house I had come from, Blue still lay sleeping two meters away from the door.

Seeing this, I crouched down and began rubbing the feathered neck of my tamed beast. Almost instantly, Blue let out pleasant-sounding screeches that indicated his comfort.

I knew that Blue wasn\'t completely asleep and was merely resting. If anyone else attempted what I had just done, they would have to pray that Blue wasn\'t one of those pets that attacked anyone but their master.

Blue must have sensed my presence the moment I stepped out of the room and relaxed his guard.

Speaking of which, should I keep calling him Blue?

He wasn\'t exactly blue anymore, after all.

His feathers were now white and golden, unlike the unranked Blue with blue and black feathers.

His beak remained black, though.

Even his flames were no longer blue but golden. So, was it still appropriate to refer to my tamed beast as Blue?

Hmm, nah, it\'s okay. A name is a name, and I like it. Besides, Blue seems to like it as well, so it doesn\'t really matter.

Yes, it truly doesn\'t matter.

Mhmm.

This is my reasonable conclusion, not because I\'m simply too lazy to think of a new name. Mhmm.

As I continued stroking Blue\'s neck and pondering various thoughts, my gaze shifted to a large wooden structure not far from me—the emperor\'s residence.

Well, I believe it\'s the emperor\'s home, but I\'m not entirely sure, nor do I care much. What truly concerned me was when we would resume our actions.

I was particularly interested in slaying ogres for primordial records, and being closer to the emperor would grant me greater access to them.

There was no way I would venture off on my own and claim to kill them. They had a formidable leader and i had no real business with them. That was the emperor business.

I simply wanted to eliminate them under the emperor\'s banner, providing me with reliable support.

As I contemplated these matters, I suddenly heard a faint noise in the distance.

When I turned to investigate the source, I noticed the door of the emperor\'s residence being opened, and the emperor and his wife stepping out.

Hmmm.

Did the emperor not have a son?

Where was he?

**********

It didn\'t take long for the emperor and me to meet up again, but before I could speak (not that I had anything to say in the first place), the emperor proposed that we fly out of the settlement.

When he said this, I didn\'t have any problem with it. After exchanging a few words with his wife and subordinate, we took to the sky, and the emperor began discussing various topics unrelated to the ogres.

Initially, he didn\'t talk about matters relating to the ogres. Instead, he brought up random topics as we slowly flew in the sky.

Although I wasn\'t interested in what he had to say, I kept quiet and listened in case he mentioned any particularly important piece of news.

At the same time, I paid attention to the movement in the air. I noticed that we were heading towards the location where the battle between the emperor and the ogres took place.

I was curious about why the emperor was leading me to this location, but I suppressed my curiosity and continued listening to what he had to say.

Oh, I also found out why the emperor\'s son was not in the settlement.

Apparently, the emperor had sent him on an important mission, although he didn\'t provide further details about this "important mission."

I had my own thoughts on the matter.

Looking at things logically, it was quite possible that the emperor had simply sent his son to another location to avoid the war. However, this explanation didn\'t entirely make sense because if the emperor had done the same with his son, he should have also done it with his wife, the queen. Yet, the queen remained in the settlement.

Let\'s assume that the queen didn\'t want to leave her husband alone, but another thing that didn\'t make sense, which I\'m sure the emperor was aware of, was that the true world was not any safer than avoiding the war with the ogres.

Considering these factors, I came to the conclusion that perhaps the emperor simply sent his son on a mission with no ulterior motive.

The emperor also mentioned that he had called back most of his men who were outside in the true world, asking them to return to the settlement quickly.

He expected them to be back by nightfall. I wondered if they would be too late, considering the possibility of the ogres launching another attack.

However, I also considered the losses the ogres must have suffered, and I concluded that as long as they possessed even the slightest intelligence, they wouldn\'t make any significant moves for a while.

Perhaps that was why the emperor seemed a little relaxed this morning and didn\'t appear like a man about to engage in a fight.

Speaking of his soldiers, I was also interested in the number of men under his command. How had he managed to gather so many people from our world to the true world?

Was it because of his power?

That was a possibility, although I doubted it was the primary cause.

Could it be attributed to a powerful item?

Quite possible as well, but...

Was it because of the guardian the emperor had encountered?
