The Mage of Eternity

83 Two Coincidence
In the desert.

There was still a day’s journey to the outer city of primal chaos.

The two Stage 4 Orcs who had received the order of the 28th Prince of the Orcs hurried on with indignant expressions.

“A trash outer city where even Stage 2 is rare, and he wants us two Stage 4 masters to go??”

“With this time, how many enemies can we kill on the real battlefield?!”

“I think this prince is stupid!”

“Shut up. The prestige of a prince cannot be humiliated. Didn’t you see how obedient General Saber and General Strength are?”

“These two are the Stage 5 powerhouses of our Orc Kingdom!”

The hot weather, coupled with the endless desert, made the two Stage 4 Orcs feel quite irritable.

At this moment, they only wanted to reach the outer city of the chaos city as soon as possible and enslave those damned humans to provide resources for the great orcs.

“Eh?”

“Do you feel that it’s suddenly much cooler?”

The bad-tempered orc suddenly stopped and asked his companion.

However, when he turned his head, he was suddenly stunned!

The companion who was comforting him just now turned into a tall skeleton. Seeing him turn his head, the skeleton’s mouth opened and closed as if it were talking to him.

This strange phenomenon made the hair of this Stage 4 orc stand on end!

Just as he was about to raise his weapon, a soft voice sounded in his ear. “Spirit Transformation!”

As the voice rang out, the orc’s body transformed into a skeleton’s at an extremely fast speed.

At the last moment, before the orc’s consciousness disappeared, he saw two people in black robes not far from him.

One of the black-robed figures had just retracted his arm.

“Will, did they cause trouble in the Buklin Duchy?”

“It’s them.”

“Desert Orcs deserve to be killed!”

“Good kill.”

“Of course! There’s something I have to tell you. Don’t mention the name An Kai in the town. I heard from my master that this person is the embodiment of greed, evil, and tyranny!

“Compared to the Warrior Hanks, he is like an ant!”

“.. Alright.”

Two black-robed figures slowly disappeared in a ball of grey-brown magic elements.

“I wonder if the Hanks Warrior is taking care of himself and wouldn’t starve.”

Just as she was about to disappear, Sally Buklin, who had transformed into a death mage, was shrouded in a black robe. She looked in the direction of the outer city of Chaos City and sighed softly.

Will Buklin, who was standing beside her, wanted to say, “Hanks and An Kai are the same person.”

Would he starve himself?

Will Bucklin didn’t believe it.

But when he thought of his current situation, Will Buklin gave up on this explanation that would cause trouble for An Kai.

The two black-robed figures disappeared, and the two Orcs turned into bone powder that slowly melted into the hot sand of the desert.

.
The next day.

The Mage Tower.

[Attribute Point +1]

A system notification appeared in front of him, and An Kai heaved a sigh of relief.

The first day at the Mage Tower was not a bad experience.

An Kai added the newly obtained attributes to his [Endurance] in order.

[Endurance +1]

[Endurance: 386]

He stood up and stretched his body.

He took out a low-grade magic stone from his storage ring.

Then, he took out a piece of hind leg meat from another storage ring.

The two items were placed together on the [Beast Meat Refining Platform].

With a thought, he activated the Beast Meat Refining Platform.

In an instant, the low-grade magic stone scattered into dust and melted into the meat under the control of the [Beast Meat Refining Platform].

Half a minute later, fresh meat appeared.

[Strengthened Ham Meat: Level 1]

[Rarity: Normal]

[Remark: Even if you are a big eater, this hind leg meat is enough to fill you up!]

A familiar notification appeared.

An Kai picked up the hind leg meat and roasted it briefly. He sprinkled the seasonings he had looted from the outer city of Chaos City and ate it contentedly.

He sat on a simple stool made from [Frost] and opened his own side quest, treating it as his own story.

Just like in his previous life, he liked to watch short videos while eating.

“Tsk tsk, this Dragon Knight is really unlucky.”

“Oh? Did the Mage Association really find the Archmage? Oh, fake news again!”

“Is the Shaq Kingdom in chaos too?”

.

As he read, An Kai commented to himself until he saw two pieces of news related to him.

[21: The Undead Town has appeared in the Kingdom of Shaq. This time, the mysterious Necromancer did not appear, but it did not prevent the Undead Town from devouring all the humans in the city in the Kingdom of Shaq!]

.

[76: The Stage 4 orc sent by the desert orcs was attacked by a black-robed creature. Their whereabouts are unknown, and the probability of death is extremely high.]

.

Seeing these two messages, An Kai frowned.

That old thing Dong Lin had dared to enter the Shaq Kingdom. This meant that the strength of Undead Town had once again increased.

An Kai guessed that the reason why the Undead Town had disappeared for so long was that they were plotting to devour the city of the Kingdom of Shaq.

“Old thing, you’re really something!”

He muttered to himself as he calculated when that old thing Dong Lin would die. He saw the 76th side quest.

Seeing this, An Kai couldn’t help but stand up abruptly. “What a coincidence!”

He had just escaped when the two Tier 4 Orcs were killed for no reason.

“Black Robe…”

In the current desert, if you found ten people and asked them which faction the black-robed person was from…

Among them, eight of them would say that they were from the undead town without hesitation.

The remaining two were dressed in black robes and said that they were from Undead Town.

Ever since the undead town appeared once outside the city of primal chaos, more and more people in the desert chose to wear black robes.

As a result, even though the number of times that Undead Town had actually attacked Chaos City could be counted on one hand, legends of them were everywhere in the desert.

In short, all the bad things in the desert suddenly had a scapegoat.

Therefore, when An Kai saw the side quest, his first guess was the desert humans or the chaos city lord.

However, in the system, the word ” creature ” was used after Black Robe instead of ” human ” or ” orc “, which were very specific terms.

In addition, anyone who could kill a Stage 4 orc must be at least Stage 4 or above.

Only the inner city of Primal Chaos City and the desert orcs had such strength.

An Kai repeatedly observed the side quest and finally confirmed one thing.

It was the black-robed figure that had appeared in the desert. It was very likely that they were a Necromancer that had not appeared in the other Undead Town mission update.

Necromancers were also living beings…

Was it a coincidence, or was it for him?

On second thought, he had never been exposed in the side quest, such as becoming the behind-the-scenes City Lord of Outer Chaos City.

This meant that he had hidden himself well. In other words, if Dong Lin had sent someone to attack, it was most likely a coincidence.

Of course, this could also be done by someone else. An Kai was prepared to continue observing the daily updates of the side quest.

He believed that he would be able to find out the truth.

This observation lasted for two and a half months.

Two and a half months later.

An Kai added the newly obtained attribute to his [Intelligence] attribute.

[Intelligence +1]

[Intelligence: 401]

Coincidentally, at this time, the side quest refreshed. An Kai was not in a hurry to increase his spell level and head to the third floor.

Instead, he checked the side quest.
