10 Raynas and Elly, Nero Wake’s Up

The battle was over in an instant; nothing about it could have been considered a fight from the perspective of this world's inhabitants. When Nero was fighting, two figures stood back and observed in silence, as they saw how the Tyrant Slime knocked him unconscious they couldn't help but show disdain as they left the area ignoring the unconscious Nero that laid on the ground.

The Tyrant Slime couldn't even be bothered to do anything more, it reformed into slime again and jumped from the ground back onto the stone resting at the center of the clear river.

"Pssh! That guy is trash, the master was right he's nothing more than a useless bum with good looks, I don't even want to waste my time to rough him up. He's not worth it," One of the men said.

"Haha, I couldn't say it any other way, man, the guy sucks, he doesn't even know the basic core combat styles of any schools, is he even a part of a society? How could someone from a society awaken with no combat knowledge? Unless he's some commoner, but we all know how nonsensical that is..." The other guy said.

"Indeed, let's forget about him, once we show the recording to the young master of the family, I'm sure his jealousy will be appeased," The other man added with a smile.

"Yeah, you're right," The other individual said.

Soon, the duo had left this region, vanishing behind the ripples of the arched tree entrance that appeared once again.

Time passed, and a few other beginners would occasionally come to challenge the Tyrant Slime; some would win easily, and others would after a fierce fight, but each of them did the same thing, staring at the sleeping youth in disdain.

Eventually, a different party had appeared; they were the brother-sister duo that wore refined-looking armor and equipment. The sturdy-looking brown-haired man in heavy armor looked around and sighed as he spoke to the petite girl with long chestnut-colored hair garbed in a dress-like armor.

"Elly, why are you bothering to rechallenge it? Haven't you beaten it enough time's already? You should know you won't be getting any exp to level up again," The man said while shaking his head.

Elly looked up at her brother with her large rounded eyes and shook her slender fists as she spoke, "Big Brother Raynas, I want to join that ranking list, I have to prove myself on each of them before I take on my Inheritance Quest."

"Hmm? You want to compete with those rising monsters from the Digitizer Union, those who've recently awakened, haha, my little sister, you sure are ambitious, but I love it! Fine, I'll let you have your way, don't take too long, we need to hurry and level you up," Raynas said with a smile as he looked at her.

"Hehe, as if I'll even need ten seconds," Elly said as she cheerfully went forward towards the Tyrant Slime's direction, but right at this moment, her eyes shifted to the side as she noticed a somewhat familiar face.

Elly knitted her brows before she spoke, "It's that pretty face from the village, humph! He's so useless!"

"Hmm?" Raynas also noticed the Nero. He couldn't help but shake his head as he spoke, "Poor guy, he must have given it his all, I wonder just what kind of fierce fight he must have had to end up like this?"

Elly hearing this spoke out, "Brother he's no expert, he just arrived today and barely has any weapons. It's highly likely that he's doing the beginner version of the Quest, and for him loose against that Tyrant Slime, he's no different from trash!"

Raynas eyes widened as he heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head and spoke, "Such a pity..."

Elly no longer paid Nero's corpse any attention; she pulled out a shortsword and stood at a spot in silence. Soon, her action had triggered the Tyrant Slime's combat routine.

The Tyrant Slime then appeared before her and transformed into her. It carried a stern look, far different from the kind shown to ordinary people and Nero as if it knew this would be a fierce battle.

A cool wind blew across the lush field, rustling the grass and plants as it swayed the dress on their bodies and hair, as they faced each other in a classic standoff.

In an instant, Elly and the Tyrant Slime blurred as they charged towards each other at speed no different from a car driving on the highway, achieving 80 km/h.

"Sword of Blossoms!" The two shouted at the same time, invoking a special skill.

Instantly, a sea of blossoms formed around them, swirling around as if it was guided by a storm. Their figures became indistinct as if the buds had shrouded them from sight.

Ting-ting-ting!

The sounds of metal hitting each other resounded as if one could perceive the scene more clearly. They would even see a few flashes of white arcs and sword sparks. Occasionally, one would see Elly and the Tyrant Slime shifting positions as they attacked each other over and over with their swords hitting the same spots each time.

Eight seconds after this battle had begun, Elly, who was ready to finish this battle, hid behind a sea of buds at the flank of the Tyrant Slime.

Suddenly, she frowned as her feet tripped over something. The instant this happened, her small body fell on top of the youth on the ground. The Tyrant Slime didn't let this chance pass it. It sneered as it swung its sword towards her stopping it at her neck, as the notification of quest failure sounded in her mind.

Ignoring the shock on her face, the Tyrant Slime merely jumped back onto its rock as it returned to its slime form.

Raynas wanted to laugh, but as he saw his sister's look, he held it in and spoke, "Elly, come on, it's okay, you can always try again another day."

Elly, who seemed to be a bit tearful, rose from the ground brushing off the dirt from her buttocks and pointed at Nero.

"Brother, it's all his fault, this darn pretty-faced pervert!" The moment Elly said this, she took a step forward and gave Nero a hard kick in his stomach, sending him flying towards the corner of the field as he smashed into a rock.

Elly seeing this came to her sensed as she shouted, "Oh no! I... I hit him too hard,"

Raynas blurred and appeared at her side, smacking her head with his fists as he reprimanded, "Elly! You should learn to take that anger of yours into control; it is for this very reason why you are transferring schools. Sigh... plus, what does he have to do with your loss? You lost because you weren't aware of your surroundings."

"I... I... I'm sorry brother, I didn't mean to hit him so far, I only wanted to vent a little," Elly said while lowering her head.

Raynas sighed and rubbed her head as he spoke, "I know, I know... my little sister isn't bad, but you have to remember that temper of yours is the biggest issue. You have to change it or you won't be able to function in society, now come, let's go check on his condition."

When Raynas said this, he began to walk over to Nero, Elly also nodded and spoke, "O-Okay,"

She naturally knew her faults, but after being this way since young she was unable to control her impulses, it was something she can only do her best to outgrow in time.

At this time, the duo was only moments away from arriving at Nero's side, but right at this moment, Nero had suddenly jumped up, looking around in shock and alarm as he spoke, "Who, what, where?"

Nero didn't seem to be in the right state of mind, as everything looked blurry in his eyes, it seemed that the blow to his head was far more damaging the hit to his body.

Nero shook his head, gripping it as he felt a surge of pain, far beyond the kind he used to face against the thugs in real life.

"Damn! I... I can't believe I lost to that darn bastard!" Nero cursed out loud while grasping his head in pain.

Raynas and Elly looked at him in surprise, Raynas asked with a concerned look in his eyes, "Hey there kid, you okay?"

"..."Elly remained silent, only standing by her brother's side as she peeked at him with a hint of embarrassment. It seemed that she thought that she was the one who caused him to lose common sense.

Nero, whose eyes were still blurry, couldn't make out anything; he only saw two silhouettes, one which seemed like a square-shaped giant, and the other had a slender petite form.

As the pain had now fallen a bit, Nero could think better. He knew that these must be challengers of the Quest, so he spoke, "I... I'm fine. I only, I..."

Nero felt a bit embarrassed, he recalled that he shouted out he was defeated just now, he didn't want people to know of such a disgraceful thing. Yet, he knew that he couldn't hide it from them, nor anyone else who must have seen him when he was unconscious.

Raynas knew Nero's worry. He spoke, "Ah, that's good; that's good, as long as you are fine. Kid, we'll be taking our leave, may we meet again, someday."

Raynas then began to leave the area, Elly looked at Nero deeply before she snorted and turned around. Though she knew her faults, she was still feeling uncomfortable about her previous experience, her soft voice sounded in his ears, "Pervert..."

Nero had never heard a voice like this in his life; it sounded akin to the calling of charming spirit in a pure lake of roses. If anything, only Nero's mother could let him sense that kind of soothing atmosphere,

However, the feeling didn't last long as he recalled the latter's words, Nero frowned as he spoke, "Who are you calling a pervert?"

By this time, Nero had recovered his senses, he slapped his head and closed his eyes before opening them again. Yet, by the time he did so, no one was there but himself.

Nero didn't feel good, he got trashed by a slime, and mocked by some girl he didn't know. He sighed as he spoke in his mind, 'You could have at least told me this was going to happen?'

Unlike usual times, Adult Nero replied, 'I could, but that would spoil my only means of entertainment. I trust that you already know of your weakness..."

At this time, Nero had recovered his usual mental faculties, he replied with a firm look in his eyes, "Correct."

Adult Nero then spoke, "Good, the day is still young, and it typically takes 24 hours before you get sent back to the original world. You should use the rest of this time to defeat this creature by any means necessary. If you can't beat it, then forget about being the strongest there is, you won't be able to fight anything in these lands."

Nero gritted his teeth at those words, he balled up his fists and sucked up his pride as he asked, 'Please teach me.'

Adult Nero hearing this smirked and replied, 'Good, let the training begin...'

When he said this, the world within Nero's mind started to glow in bright lights as a new road appeared, one that would lead him to the path of becoming strongest of all.
