Chapter 42 (2/2)

At those words, Ian’s expression stiffened

‘This crazy!’

Itit The risk for this was quite big The risk to lose the right to refuse the quest after reading it was quite big

In the case that a quest was failed or given up on after receiving it, your Fame would drop proportionately to the quest’s rank

There wasn’t a big i one quest that was ranked lower than D, but he heard that there were cases where when the quest’s rank is high, their Fame was cut by the thousands

Before resetting, Ian had failed a C-rank quest before, and he re about 500 Fame

On top of that, depending on whether the quest was successful or not, he could lose his reward So if he got a quest with a level of difficulty that was higher than he expected, he could end up losing just his Fa

“By any chance, there’s no way of knowing beforehand what kind of obligation it is, right?”

He asked just in case, but it was as expected

I cannot let you know until you decide

“Hmm…”

Oakley’s urging towards Ian, as conte, continued

What will you do? Will you give up the reward and not receive the obligation either, or will you receive the obligation along with the reward?

Ian decided

‘It’s not ive up here and leave’

Ian, who made up his mind, nodded his head as he opened his mouth

“Yes, I will accept”

Ian’s response

Along with that, a systee popped up

You have accepted Oakley’s proposal

And as expected, the quest information popped up

Ring-

The Reotten Ancient Monster

The legendary Dragon Tamer Oakley had sealed himself under Crupia Snow Mountain for over a thousand years

After receiving the God Dragon’s Soul Stone, go find the Dimensional Enchanter

Quest Difficulty Level: B

Quest Condition: A Sunition from Oakley

: Cannot be in a party for the duration of the quest

Time Limit: None

Reward – Unknown

You cannot refuse the quest

You have accepted the quest, ‘The Reotten Ancient Monster’

As it was a quest that couldn’t be refused, a syste that he automatically accepted the quest popped up

And Ian, who read the quest inforhtly relieved

‘Fortunately, there’s no time limit’

It was a little surprising that he got a B-rank quest before he even reached lv 50, but the fact that it didn’t have a time limit meant that it wouldn’t matter even if he accepted the quest and didn’t clear it

‘But if you cannot be in a party for the duration of the quest, does that mean you cannot do any party-plays at all until you finish this quest?’

If it was a different user unlike Ian, it was a critical penalty

However, to Ian, who originally enjoyed solo-play, it couldn’t really be considered a penalty

‘I probably can’t finish a B-rank quest alone right now, but…’

It was so he could do er

While Ian was thinking of these things, Oakley approached him

And he handed to Ian a pitch-black luy

You have obtained the iteon’s Soul Stone’

‘This is a soul stone…?’

Oakley opened histhe object that more closely resembled a piece of coal rather than a soul stone

Truthfully, I ao

Ian turned his head towards Oakley

If it was a quest that he had to do no matter what, he needed to hear Oakley’s story as carefully as possible

And in the generation I lived, there were legendary monsters that do not exist anymore

As if Oakley was re his past, his words continued with a sentimental expression

And ast them, one of them was a Familiar that had spent the on Karceus

At some point, Ian was immersed into Oakley’s story

His story was quite interesting

A thousand years ago, I was the head of the ‘Dragon Tamers’, who have now disappeared, and Karceus was one of the five dragons that were called God Dragons

Oakley’s story was incredibly long

This was the content of his story when summarized

Prilania Valley, the base of the northern continent’s Dragon Taons, and through that, ons and tamers were killed

Oakley’s on, Karceus, as one of the five God Dragons and his companion, and because of that, he fled Prilania Valley and hid in the snow mountains

However, because of the evil dragons that followed behind him persistently, he had no choice but to bind Karceus’ and his soul under the snow mountain, and had waited for a thousand year

“But were the evil dragons so strong that they couldn’t be blocked by the strength of you or the War Dragon that’s called a God Dragon?”

At Ian’s question, Oakley had on a bitter expression as he nodded his head

The nuons were far superior coons, ‘Khalifa’, was even stronger than Karceus

Ian asked another thing he was curious about

“What happens when I go and find the Dimensional Enchanter with this soul stone?”

The Dimensional Enchanter will tell you the way to revive the War Dragon’s soul back into this world

Ian tilted his head

“Revive a soul?”

Oakley’s words continued

What do you think round, where not even a ray of light shi+nes in, for such a long duration of a thousand year?

It’s to revive the bloodline of the War Dragon Karceus that was cut off after that day The existence of a ‘God Dragon’ cannot be ended off like that If I could, I wanted to continue the existence of Dragon Tamers as well…

Ian finally understood

‘Ah… Is that why he proposed that I class-change to a Dragon Tamer?’

Oakley continued to speak

Originally, if the first person to have passedtheon Tamers and hand them the soul of Karceus But if that wasn’t the case, I was thinking of asking theh the soul stone

He continued speaking with a slightly irritated voice

But I never thought that there would be a Suon Tamer

Ian felt sorry for no reason at all

“I… see”

If you had continued the existence of Dragon Tahtheartedly, and the War Dragon would have become your Familiar

Ian had on a slightly strange expression

“Can a Dragon Tamer revive the soul stone of Karceus?”
