Ascension: Strongest Fateless Mage

Chapter 77 Sabotage Plan?



The next day, Zevien woke up at 5 in the morning, grabbed five empty vials, and a waist belt with a pouch, and right after, he entered the Inviolable Blood Garden after five seconds of meditation.

He appeared in the blood pool cave and filled all five vials before putting them in the bag on his waist.

Afterward, he activated the shaman seed to transform and then used Blood Morphing Art while pointing his hand at the pond.

Unfurling his vampire wings, he zoomed out of the cave and flew up to explore this magic labyrinth.

After flying for a while, he arrived at the field of that small family he had met previously. Rezina was working in the field while Kohan and his sister, Jenna, were running outside the flower field, playing with two other kids.

Zevien interacted with them, hoping to pop up a magic quest, but nothing happened.

"Where is uncle Henry?" Zevien asked.

"He went to the town to sell the flowers," Rezina said with a smile while watering the field.

"I see. If you need any help, then tell me. I am going to the town and see how it is."

Rezina smiled and shook her head, "it\'s fine. We are doing better than before. For now, we don\'t need anything."

...

Zevien left the field afterward and roamed the town. However, he couldn\'t pop up any magic quest even after interacting with some people. Surprisingly, when he questioned this inwardly, he got a response in the form of a single line in his head.

==============================

-You will not get another magic quest before completing your incomplete chain and relic.

==============================

After learning this fact, Zevien roamed the town and found many interesting things. One of them was the adventure guild, where people or other establishments posted tasks for rewards. Zevien took one task of killing magic beasts and nests near some villages and set off to do it.

After one hour and thirty minutes, he cleared areas around eight villages and killed fifteen magic beasts, getting a total of 800 gold coins: 100 gold coins for each village\'s surroundings he cleared.

Afterward, he took on another task. This task gave 150 gold coins to escort a merchant carriage from one town to another town. He was not the only escort as there were three more people. All three of them had slightly more magic power than Zevien, but still less than 1500 magic power, according to Tarto.

"This is boring," Tarto appeared on Zevien\'s shoulder and said with a bored expression. The other people couldn\'t see Tarto or hear his voice.

The merchant was sitting on the carriage while Zevien and the three other escorts, Yenil, Mirena, and Zon, were on horses as they moved alongside the carriage. The four of them were surrounding the carriage, each one in the four cardinal directions of the carriage.

Zevien was moving at the back.

\'What do you mean boring?\' Zevien replied through telepathy.

"Why are you escorting this carriage?" Tarto rolled his eyes. "There are five magic crystals inside the carriage and some other things. Just kill these people, take the magic crystals, and take off! Zoom~"

Zevien almost exclaimed out loud at hearing that. Taking a deep breath, he asked, \'Are you sure? What rank of magic crystals are there?\'

\'Three white-rank crystals, one gray-rank, and one yellow-rank,\' Tarto replied with a grin, \'the storage box of this carriage is enchanted with multiple layered defensive magic spells, but I can still see what is inside quite easily. Aside from magic crystals, there are some rare materials and magic sigils."

"If you are willing to take the risk of fighting these people and steal, then I will break those multiple layered defensive spells to open the storage box for you."

Zevien gulped before saying, \'why don\'t you break it open now so I can quickly grab some and take off?\'

"Meow~Now that is not interesting!\' Tarto smiled with narrowed eyes, \'it\'s better that you learn this phrase early; you get what you fight for. This saying will become more and more apparent as you become stronger."

Zevien went silent for a few moments before nodding with a grin. \'Well then, it\'s time to use some brains.\'

After a few seconds, Zevien pointed his hand and extended his nails to reach a one-meter length before cutting off a tree branch.

"Nice, you can control my powers more now," Tarto nodded after seeing Zevien extending his sharp nails.

"What are you doing?" the merchant asked with a frown.

"Nothing," Zevien smiled.

"Then what is that wood branch for?" the merchant asked with a doubtful expression.

"It\'s just a wood branch. I wanted it to carve a dagger and have someone enchant it with an enchant-type spell since I lost my last dagger," Zevien made up an excuse, "do any of you have an enchant-type spell?"

"I have," Mirena said as she turned to Zevien. She was moving on the left side of the carriage.

"Nice. I\'ll carve it into a dagger of my choice and then give you. I hope you don\'t mind enchanting it for me," Zevien said with a polite smile.

Mirena nodded, "no problem."

"What are you planning?" Tarto curiously inquired.

Zevien was carving the wood but also writing something on the branch as he replied telepathically to Tarto, \'just make sure to open the storage box when the time comes. I will make my move soon.\'

Tarto didn\'t know what Zevien was planning, but when he looked at what Zevien wrote on the branch, he understood, "Kekeke, the idea is nice. It lessens your risk."

\'Just lessens? Hahaha, it\'s practically non-existent,\' Zevien inwardly replied with a laugh.

"Well, I wonder about that," Tarto said with a cunning smile.

Seeing that, Zevien raised his eyebrows, \'are you hiding something?\'

"Nope. But you will know soon. Just go along with your plan," Tarto snickered.

\'Fine,\' Zevien replied. Shortly afterward, he was done carving a crude dagger with words written on its blade.

"Here, it\'s ready," Zevien moved his horse towards Mirena and gave her the dagger before silently moving to the back of the carriage.

Mirena noticed the words on the dagger and was surprised before she frowned for a bit.
