Misty World: Start with SSS skill



That's right, even though the cake was beautifully decorated… in fact, when he put that piece of cake into his mouth, he felt like he was eating a sponge wrapped in sugar.

It was too sweet.

It was so sweet that he felt his throat sting a little.

"What's wrong? It's too delicious, isn't it?" Seraphen laughed. Huh! Men taste the only cake in the world.

Hikaru covered his mouth, trying to swallow the horrible thing down. He glanced at Seraphen, sighing silently in his heart. He felt that the taste buds of the people of this world were… too bad.

"Hm… amazing." Hikaru tried to speak, although when he said it he felt extremely nauseous: "This is truly the most delicious thing I have ever eaten."

"Huh! Of course, it's the only cake in the world. Even if you search, you won't find the second one."

That's right, even if I wanted to look, I wouldn't be able to find a second cake so horrible.

Hikaru shook his head, he did not want to pay attention to the girl anymore. He looked ahead, the whole place was completely covered with fog, so he couldn't see anything.

"Do you want to go inside? Currently the monument cannot be opened. You have to wait for 12 days, before the sealing magic specialist of the Saric Sanctuary arrives before you can open the seal of the relic."

Hikaru heard that and asked, "So… what are you here for?"

"I?" Seraphen said with a smile: "Of course, I came to survey the situation here first."

Hikaru smiled but said nothing, Sera's lie was too obvious.

In the map, Bryen also clearly stated that the Saric Sanctuary did not allow anyone near the area around the monument.

Outside, about 200 meters from the ruins, an army was constantly guarding the surroundings. Even if Silutop was reborn, he wouldn't be able to pass.

Hikaru was different, as he could use hy teleport skill, and enter the Void state, so no one could detect him.

What about Seraphen?

If she had the ability to enter this place, it means that she was no ordinary person. Besides… All of Sera's information, including her stats, was seen by Hikaru.

Even… her race.

"So… you stayed outside to survey, I'll go inside."

"Heh?!" Hearing Hikaru's words, Seraphen was startled, she felt extremely surprised: "Don't you understand what I just said? This place was sealed by an ancient magic. Without the Saric Sanctuary's sealing magic expert, it wouldn't be able to open."

Hikaru glanced at Seraphen and smiled but said nothing. He stretched his hand forward, and the space in front of him suddenly twisted like a cloth.

Then, the space in front of Hikaru was torn into a hole with a diameter of more than 2 meters.

Seraphen opened her mouth in surprise. She couldn't believe what had just happened before her eyes.

What just happened?

The young man only needed to reach out his hand, to unseal the ruins…

No, the seal of the ruins was still there, it was just… The young man was able to open a hole in the seal without affecting the magic seal of the relic.

Seraphen also knew that if the expert in sealing magic came to this place, it would take a long time to find a way to open the seal.

Hikaru was of course able to do that simply because he possessed Void Energy. This energy source only needed to corrode the energy of the seal to create a small portal to enter the inner area.

This sealing magic had the ability to absorb the surrounding energy to replenish itself. Therefore, this vulnerability would disappear very quickly.

Hikaru didn't notice Seraphen, as he immediately stepped inside the hole.

Seraphen now looked as if she had just woken up from her slumber. She also immediately followed after Hikaru.

As soon as the two entered, the hole slowly narrowed, then completely disappeared.

Hikaru frowned at Seraphen: "Why are you following me?"

"I…" Seraphen faltered a little, but then she pouted and said, "Huh! You easily broke the magic seal, I was afraid you would damage the ruins inside, so I followed you to keep an eye on you."

Hikaru shook his head and said, "You are incapable of monitoring and controlling me."

Seraphen frowned upon hearing that, her eyes were filled with anger. She yelled, "You think you're strong?"

"Not quite, but I'm strong enough to defeat you."

Seraphen sneered: "Heh!? You seem very confident. Don't think that because you beat Silutop, you're invincible."

"Silutop is just an ant in this world. Even if you defeat him, you are not strong enough to be invincible in this world."

Huh! Men are a bunch of arrogant and stupid people.

Hikaru frowned, however, he also didn't want to spend time arguing with Seraphen.

He looked at his surroundings. This place was a huge palace, although it had been ruined by time, it still appeared to be an extremely majestic palace.

Surrounding the palace were countless magical symbols that were continuously absorbing the surrounding energy to replenish themselves.

What's different is that these magic symbols all have a weird character in between them.

That character was like the core of magic, it both controlled and maintained the magic to function normally.

Hikaru frowned, he felt that those spells were extremely magical. If it was applied to daily life, perhaps it would be extremely convenient.

He felt that those spells were like automatic machines that worked after being programmed.

Hikaru asked Seraphen: "Do you know how to create those magic symbols?"

Seraphen snorted, contemptuously said: "Huh! Of course I know, but I won't tell you."

Hikaru frowned, he asked Rika: "What is that?"

[Master, that's Runes.]

"Runes?"

[That's right. Simply put, it's magic characters, but it's more complicated than the magic characters that Darnag uses.]

[Darnag only uses magic characters to perform a single function. The other magic characters are composed of various magic characters combined.]

[They are arranged and programmed to perform repetitive tasks.]

"So.. it means that the Runes are like a software, the person who designed it or created the Rune is a programmer?"

[Yes it's similar.]

Hikaru nodded, he felt that Runes was one of the keys that could help him manage the territory better.

Just like in modern society, almost every transaction could be done online without human intervention.

If he mastered the Runes, he could do a lot of things.

"Oi! Are you listening to what I am saying?"

Seraphen's voice interrupted Hikaru's thoughts. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

"You want information about those spells? I know them well, if you want to know about them, we can talk."

Hikaru glanced at Seraphen and said, "No need."

"Heh?!" Seraphen was startled, she gritted her teeth, and mentally scolded Hikaru countless times.

What the hell is wrong with this young man? Just now, he asked me about those Runes, now he is saying he doesn't need them?

Is it… is he acting arrogant? Huh! Man, you made me angry.

Hikaru approached the front gate of the palace, even though the stone gate was broken, the sealing magic was still active outside.

No, to be more precise, a sealed Rune. At this moment, Seraphen suddenly spoke up.

"Ah! This type of Rune is truly amazing. It can both absorb energy from the outside to supplement itself, but it can also constantly change so that others cannot unlock it."

"Does it change on its own?" Hikaru frowned and asked.

Seraphen explained: "That's right. Inside this magic is a string of 9 points of light. If these 9 points of light are not arranged in the correct order, they cannot be unlocked."

"However, this Rune can continuously change the exact order of the other 9 points of light. If the unlocking time is too long, it will change the exact position of the 9 points of light."

Hikaru glanced at the Sealed Rune,he  felt that this was a wonderful construction. Although it did not have a human hand, it could still operate on its own.

Like an ancient AI.

"Hm… Can't open it, we have to find another way." Seraphen frowned and sighed. She felt that this relic was also too mysterious.

The other ruins had only a few external seals, but this one had countless seals. Even the seals inside this relic were made from Runes.

Hikaru said, "No need."

Just as he said that, he used Void Energy to corrode the rune seal of the gate.

Once again, Seraphen seemed to witness a miracle. She only saw Hikaru reaching forward, and the Rune seal as if it was being corroded, revealed a large hole.

Hikaru went inside that hole, instantly disappearing. Seraphen was scared, she was really scared right now.

She was wondering how the hell Hikaru was doing this. He could easily corrode a sealed Rune with ease, but without affecting the Rune's operation?

Bizarre!

Too weird!

However, even though Seraphen was scared, she still wanted to follow the young man.

At this point, she was completely focused on Hikaru, she even forgot how much she hates men herself.

Hikaru saw that the inside of the palace was completely different from the outside. This place was not dirty or dilapidated, and there was not even a speck of dust.

However, he realized it was probably thanks to the magical Runes that were automatically cleaning and repairing the palace continuously.

"How can you break the Rune sealed outside the door?"

Seraphen's voice which was filled with confusion resounded behind him. Hikaru turned his head, he had begun to feel that this girl was a bit annoying.

Seeing Hikaru's eyes as if he was scolding her, Seraphen angrily shouted: "You… what the hell are you thinking?"

Hikaru shook his head and said, "I find you very troublesome. Maybe… I should get you out… or… kill you."

"You…" Seraphen took a step back, she felt extremely scared. For the first time in her life, after becoming a Holy Maiden she was this scared.

Suddenly, the memories from the past that were buried immediately flooded Seraphen's mind.

That's right, right now Hikaru really wanted to kill Seraphen. He didn't care who this girl was, if she was useful he could keep her alive.

But this girl was so annoying that he felt uncomfortable.

"AAAA!!" Seraphen was frightened, she clutched her head, and squatted on the ground, shouting: "Don't! Don't come here! Please! Don't come here!"
