Chapter 180: I Wanted to Eat them Now, I Wanted to Kill them Now


    The things I just saw were really crucial to me, and it was logic for my enemy to prevent me from entering here, as I would benefit a lot from it.


    What I found was a whole section dedicated to sacrednds. Before even entering it, I realized how important it was to establish a post for any power in this empire out there.


    The sacrednds test wasn''t full of dangers only, it was also full of opportunities. I began to scroll down the items sold there, and the more I read the more I became astonished.


    The first thing to attract my eyes were many books dedicated to the strategies and secrets of surviving there. The authors were the famous yers out there in thesends ording to the description beside each book.


    There were manuals for how to establish a castle and how to defend it. These manuals weren''t cheap, as each book was sold at a high price of twenty thousand gold coins.


    In front of me there were over two to three dozen of these books, and from what I read in their titles I guessed many were just repeating the same thing with different perspectives.


    What caught my attention after I read all of their detailed exnations were three books, the first was a manual for beginners, which was a handful of books for my current position. I bought it without any second thoughts, as it was one of the kind.


    All books here were directed towards the experienced yers, those who already had small posts and were aiming to transform it into a small kingdom. My ambition was bigger than that, however I wanted first to survive and establish my post, as this was the hardest step in my opinion.


    The second book was about how to set defensive and offensive strategies in the sacrednds using the terrain. For me I was a leader of armies and most of the time I loved using the terrain to my advantage.


    So, this book suited my taste, and I bought it.


    The third book was about the secrets inside the sacrednds. This book alone was sold at a high price of fifty thousand gold coins. That wasn''t cheap, however from its description I realized how valuable it was.


    This book wasn''t only revealing the secrets of thesends, it was also telling all the legends and folk tales ever said about the sacrednds. For me I wasn''t sure of its value until I saw a sample of the book quoted in the description.


    It was speaking about an old legend rting these sacrednds and the founder of the Frod''s empire andstly the rtion of both with the legendary character of the witch.


    I had high hopes for that book, so I bought it and ignored more than a dozen of the same books who were only telling the secrets. For some reason, this book''s sales weren''t as good as the others. In fact I was number eighty six in the list of buyers, at the same time the lowest book in the same list sold at least ten thousand copies so far.


    Underrated gem like this was a nice catch for me. I knew it might not help me at revealing the sacrednds secrets like other books, but I wanted to know more, especially about the history of thesends.


    After I bought the three books, I paid ny thousand gold coins. It pained me to lose all these coins so rapid like this, however that was essential.


    After buying the books, I began to check other supplies that seemed useful, yet very expensive. I found a flying fortress that seemed like a very strong defensive and offensive tool, but its price was really mind blowing for me.


    They needed five million gold coins to buy it, five million gold coins, wow! I really couldn''t imagine there were items sold by millions here.


    Who would be this filthy rich to buy it? I envied them if these legends truly existed.


    To be honest, all the items sold here were way over my budget, but I kept reading them. I wanted to gain all the information rted to that ce. I had a feeling that my enemies in thesends wouldn''t be only limited to the demons.


    I wanted to know the capabilities of other yers there, and the more I read the more I became sure of my true ce there.


    I was nothing, like an ant crawling in front of giants. If any of those old and rich yers wanted to destroy mynd, they could do this without even sweating.


    I had to be careful, so careful when I start the test, or else I might pump into a hard rock that would put an end to my adventure there.


    I hoped there would be a restrictingw, fiercer thatws of the game here, to prevent yers from attacking each other and snatching each other''s territories.


    The list took me quite some time until I finished it, and I finished it with a deep long sigh. I was now not that happy with my acquisition of the three books, as I knew yers who would buy things here wouldn''t bother with selecting any book.


    They would simply buy them all.


    I sighed again, why wasn''t I the daughter of a filthy rich family here? That was sad.


    Without knowing it, half an hour passed, and this was enough for my preparations to bepleted. I found messages sent from Gabri telling me he was heading towards here ten minutes ago.


    If he moved fast, then he would be about to enter here. I looked towards that master who was looking at me with bulging eyes and frustrating looks as I said with a chuckle:


    "I have finished here, thanks for your hospitality."


    I then moved from my seat without waiting for his reply. Elyo and Diana followed me silently as Elyo sent privately to me:


    ''Are we going to kill them?''


    ''Yes, be ready as we have to receive the first hit,'' I replied.


    ''That sucks, why can''t we just report them? they are lying in ambush for us for over half an hour. They should be punished, not us,'' she said with a displeased expression over her face.


    I smiled as I didn''t reply, these were the rules, and we had to adjust to them.


    Once we exited the building, I felt danger approaching fast. The ce was so quiet, with no yer or NPC moving at any ce. however I knew, my enemies were lurking in the darkness waiting for me.


    They were waiting for my mistake, either I would be careless or I would be impulsive.


    So I didn''t move rapidly, as I treated each step with utmost care. I could have used my immune skill from the start, but that would be a waste as they could wait until my skill became invalid and then they would attack.


    I hated these stressful moments, why didn''t they just attack from the start and end this nervous waiting?


    As I was thinking like that, I sensed a movementing from behind. Without any hesitation I threw my spear to float over my fingertips calmly as I ordered:


    "We can''t be the first one to attack, so defend."


    Elyo knew this, but Diana didn''t so I had to inform her or else we would be punished. My words came in the perfect time, as Diana was about to sh her sword towards the iing enemies.


    She paused as she didn''t attack, instead she jumped couple of steps to the back to stand behind me as she muttered:


    "Sorry, my skill arsenal is full of attacking skills, no single defensive one."


    That was surprising, however I didn''t bother with her as three enemies appeared suddenly from the back to be just a few meters away from me. I smiled as they were fast, however in my opinion they were a decoy.


    The real attack woulde from my back right now, and my counter to it was ready.


    "Gravity skill."


    I muttered as the area around me changed in gravity at once, at the same time two silhouettes appeared out of nowhere with surprising looks over their faces.


    This simple, yet effective attack strategy was my favourite, who would hate a decoy strategy? No one!


    And now, I had the most perfect counter for that kind of attack, poor assassins.


    Once they were revealed, they were startled for a moment, a moment of hesitation and doubt was enough for me to use my second skill.


    "Dragon cape fog skill."


    Once the skill was used, a fog appeared around me to make me able to jump at any time I wanted. I selected this skill despite its small immune window as I wasn''t sure about the ssical type of immune skills.


    Those assassins came here knowing my identity and skills, so they must have known I had immune skills. they also knew I was a mystic art user, so the possibility of them being like me was high, very high.


    And so, I chose this skill to avoid any problems like what happened to me when I fought Leli before. Once the fog appeared, they thought I wanted to run away so the two assassins moved to attack me fiercely with their two daggers.


    Four daggers targeted me from impossible to dodge angels, however all I needed to do was to think of jumping and I disappeared. When I appeared three meters away from them, surprisingly I found the four daggers still following me.


    They both were mystic art users. That wasn''t bad news for me, instead it was brilliant news to me. these two assassins turned to be a hot cake in my eyes, I wanted to eat them now, I wanted to kill them now.
