Chapter 165 - Return To Resurgia (1/2)

The players celebrated the opening of Sandurk. Anyone would feel delighted especially if another place to explore opened up. Not only that, but it also means more quests, more monsters, and more gear to discover. For players, exploring and obtaining items is one of the necessary things in the game.

The pioneers participated in the party, even Harmless Sparrow and Dolly are partying with the others and are eating delicious food. However, I have no time for celebrations. It is just a temporary side of fun and I am not finding parties as a fun activity. I would rather use the time I used partying to complete quests and clear dungeons. That way, my time is much more well spent instead.

”Are you sure you are not going to participate? You are the star of the party after all,” Queen Tanya asked while sipping her wine.

”I am sorry, your majesty. But I am not a party person. I would rather go and find a monster to kill than to vibe with others in music and festivities.”

”Hmm, I see. Well, I can't change your mind if that is your decision. I am not just going to hold you here by force if you don't like it. I will allow you to leave for the party. However, be sure to come back here from time to time. I might have some odd jobs you might like to complete.”

”I will your majesty. I am indebted to you after all.”

Queen Tanya nodded and raised her chalice full of wine as an act that sends me off. I bowed and left quietly without informing Harmless Sparrow or Dolly.

Just as I was about to go to the teleportation stone, Bloodaxe called out to me who was outside in the castle.

”Yo, leader, or should I say Bladeheart, right? Where are you going?”

I was surprised by his call since I didn't expect anyone to be calling me out here after slipping out of the party.

”I am going back to Resurgia. I need to do some matters now that the Pioneer Quests are done. You, what are you doing here? I thought you would be with the others in the party.”

”Nah, I don't like loud and crowded places like parties. They are just too uncomfortable for me even if it is in the game,” he answered as he sips the wine in his wine glass.

”If there is nothing more, I will need to get going.”

An alert popped out of my menu and when I checked it, Bloodaxe sent a friend request to me. I accepted his request since there is no need for me to decline a request. After accepting, I left the castle after our exchange and went to the Teleportation Stone that was recently activated after our successful subjugation against Dirac, the Dragon of Darkness.

The Teleportation Stone is a marvel as it looks mystical with all the runes covering its bluish-green diamond shape gem floating in the air. If this was present in the real world, many scientists and other people will try to study this thing. Thankfully, this is just part of the design in the game so I don't need to worry about them. Before I can approach the Teleportation stone, I went to the stall beside it. Basically, that place acts as the booth for the users of the teleportation stone. This is to make sure there are no multiple people who have different destinations teleports together. After all, the stone can only teleport in one location so it isn't the problem of the stone if it teleports you somewhere you didn't want to be teleported into or the destination of the player who was with you activating it first.

The blue-haired girl with green eyes smiled and bowed the moment I approached the booth. I am also not surprised she called me by my name despite being our first encounter. With my name being broadcasted by NPCs around Sandurk, it will be strange if she didn't know me.

”Welcome Pioneer Bladeheart to the Sandurk Teleportation Stone! Are you going to teleport somewhere?”

”Yes. I need to go back to Resurgia.”

”Alright, here is your ticket. Don't worry, it is free of charge. Once you present it to the guard of the Teleportation Stone, you will be able to use the teleportation stone to go to your desired location. Do you need some explanation on how to use the stone?”

I shook my head. ”No need.”

”Well then, have a good day and good luck in your journeys! We hope to see you again!”
