58 Fort Malteres (1/2)

Dye and Ynoir stayed in the rest area for several more hours before continuing with the instance. However, they did not expect to be transported out of the instance instead.

Dye was surprised. Because they weren't spouses, Dye and Ynoir didn't share an inventory. Even if they were in the same party, they didn't share the same inventory. As long as she remembered, she programmed it so spouses could share the same inventory.

That was convenient, but one could only have one spouse.

”Hold on.”

In one of the glowing inventory boxes, she saw a scroll like object. It wasn't a skill scroll but the note from before. Materializing the note, she saw : ”Meet me in Fort Malteres.”

So her initial deduction was incorrect. The puppeteer wasn't inside the granary but he was outside of the granary. It was another realm, but the puppeteer wasn't inside this other realm with his puppets. The last puppet was the final boss? The only puppet with consciousness?

That made a lot of sense, but there weren't even mini bosses to fight with!

The stronger puppet mini bosses with no consciousness - ”...”

”Ynoir, the puppeteer isn't in there,” Dye showed the note to the elf, ”he is in Fort Malteres.” It would explain a lot. Why out of all the puppets in the hall, there would only be one puppet with consciousness that wasn't even notified of their arrival. It the puppeteer was within communication range (according to puppet level, should be in the same realm), he could've told the puppet of their arrival.

On the other hand, the puppet only activated the moment they reached his aggro range.

Though, she wasn't sure if people in this world have aggro range that ignored people who were right in front of them.

”Fort Malteres?” Ynoir showed a confused face, ”how could he even be there? That's impossible.”

There were no part in her game map that showed Fort Malteres anywhere, so she wasn't sure where it was either. Could the place be located outside the outer ring of the map? But those places were definitely places where newbies could never go to.

Newbies like them.

”Um...I'm sorry,” Jaglash looked at the conversing duo, who totally ignored him right from the moment they appeared in front of the granary. The guards didn't realize anything, but they probably would if the duo didn't tune down their voices.

Who would speak loudly right in front of danger?
