Chapter 402: Revived (2/2)

In Rangka’s mind, if a divine kingdom truly existed in this world, this would be it.

The even red-bricked streets (pedestrian walkways, but Rangka doesn’t know that) were clean and tidy, with dust nowhere to be seen, let alone rubbish. Both sides of the streets were also lined full of pretty, exquisite buildings, embedded with wondrous but intricate metal decorations (fire hydrants), along with light pillars straighter and more towering than trees and benches. The people on the streets appear to be in a hurry, but there was no worry or blues showing on their faces, and they exuded only bliss and energy.

Soon, Rangka realized that hew was standing beneath a hovering rhombic sculpture.

There was another one of that in the Long Ears’ village made by the Players, but unlike the one that stuck out like a sore thumb against the buildings around it, the one here that towered over the streets appeared quite fitting.

It was such a wonderful and mythical place!

Rangka would bet the long ears he prided himself with that even the streets of Vannado, known as the Nation of Nations in the Western Continent would not compare to this place!

Even the plants on both sides of the streets were totally different. There were towering flower stems that grew over two meters, their emerald leaves larger than giant clams. The purple flowers were bright, beautiful and had the rare spots, and beneath its blossom were concealed, sharp teeth—

Hold on.

Teeth?

“Grooooooowl!” (A flower’s shrieking)

“Aaaaaaaaargh!” (A human’s scream)

“Oh my god! Mister Marni was eaten again!”

“Who the heck planted that thing? Wasn’t it already forbidden to plant offense-type magical plants in the town?”

“You bastards!”

“Stop with the memes! Mister Marni would be gone if you keep memeing!”

“Tch, the flower is too powerful and I’m not winning! Quick, get the peashooter!”

“It’s already uprooted. How about first-rate Players?”

“Every last one of them had gone off to play quests. Who else is in town?”

[Player Marni Wilf has been killed by Man-Eating Flower (temporary name)]

“Alright, move along, everyone. Remember to notify Mister Angora and have him send people to move the flower away.”

Hence, the bystanders slowly dispersed as if nothing happened and resumed their tasks at hand.

Still, Rangka was left blank, having witnessed this situation for the first time.

‘Uh… this doesn’t quite fit the impression I have of divine kingdoms?’

Suddenly, a rather familiar voice spoke beside him.

“Eh? Aren’t you Mister Rangka? Why are you here?”

Startled, Rangka turned around towards the voice, and realized that the person was someone he met several times before.

It was Joey Arbiter—the man who had kept following Zonyan Grayclaw around.
