Chapter 367: If its manipulation , leave it to Shakuni (1/2)
Once Rudra had time to properly think about what he did , Rudra buried his face in his palms in embarrassment. Why.... Why did he try to act soo cool infront of Drax?
Deep down Rudra knew the answer to that ..... It was 'Respect'. Rudra had never felt soo small , since coming to Draconia. He wanted to make a point , that the Elites are not your average Joe , that they are not like most humans.
But in his thirst for that recognition , he said stupid things like , ' give me 3 days '. And ' that's the Elite way '. To be honest , he was carried away with seeing the difficulty of the quest. It was the first time , in a long time , that Rudra saw an A rated quest.
It was always S , SS or SSS missions for him. Hence to see a normal one , it was funny to him and made him say those stupid words to look cool. However , one thing was for sure , that Rudra had every intention of living upto his stupid promise now that he made it .
Enroute on the Back of the black dragon , Rudra had nothing much to do , hence he started to talk to the dragon messenger , trying to understand more information about the divine nine tailed fox clan.
The messenger was prideful and hard to talk to , but it was a long journey , hence over bits and pieces , Rudra was able to get all the answers he wanted , However he liked none of them.
Apparently , the Nine tailed fox's lived in the land of illusions. It was a place covered in mysterious fog , as noone who entered it , can truly say that they had found the city of the nine tailed fox clan. It was always an illusion of talking to the nine tailed fox beasts , an illusion of a prosperous cityscape , an illusion to sleep in a warm bed in a inn , only to wake up buck naked in a forest , being crawled on by snakes.
A place even the bravest of dragons would not go , unless absolutely necessary. It was a land Rudra had to traverse without anyone's help.
Rudra now truly regretted his big mouth , maybe this won't be as easy as he thought it would be.
Rudra really wanted to complete this quest , the one month of time , he and the group would get , if he completed this task successfully , was going to be a month of astronomical improvement for everyone.
From unheard of technologies for warfare , to potions of high potency and rare ingredients and effects they did not knew of , some skill scrolls , some combat training and some weapons. The elites needed a complete massive upgrade , and Draconia was a chance to get this upgrade.
Rudra was currently desperate for an edge , he needed ace holes after ace holes , and not only for himself , but for the entire guild. He needed to keep getting stronger and stronger. Only then could he become the strongest guild master someday.
