Misty World: Start with SSS skill-Chapter 44 Anno’s Mother - Queen Of Dark Elf
Hikaru was surprised to see that the girl in front of him was Rika. He had thought many times of how Rika would look like, but he never imagined that she would look like this.
The current Rika was no different from a ghost in a horror movie, which easily scared people.
Hikaru suddenly said: "Rika..."
[Master, you don't need to worry about me.]
Rika immediately interrupted Hikaru's words.
Hikaru still wanted to say something but stopped. He temporarily ignored Rika's issue. Hikaru thought for a moment and then asked, "Where does the fog come from?
[I'm afraid I can't tell you.If I do , some horrible existence will notice us] .
"Horrible existence? Are they worse than the system?"
Rika shook her head: [Maybe. But if you mention their names, they will immediately notice you.]
Hearing Rika's words, Hikaru was really scared. How powerful must these existences be that just mentioning their name would allow them to find me?
"Must I make a decision now?" Hikaru asked.
Rika nodded in silence.
Hikaru was lost in thought. Who doesn't want to be a hero? However, Hikaru didn't think that he would want to become such a person.
Hikaru took a deep breath and said, "Being a hero is interesting, but I just want to be the last one alive. Everyone is born with a mission, and not everyone who wants to be a hero becomes a hero. There will be heroes, and of course, there will be villains and supporting characters. I don't think it's my mission to be the hero."
Rika fell silent, and after a while she asked: [What if Master has enough power to become a hero?]
"Enough power? When will power be enough? It's like the saying, 'When you have enough money, you can live happily'. But when will it be enough?" Hikaru asked while looking into the distance: "If I become the strongest, then I will consider becoming a hero."
Suddenly, Rika's face showed a smile. Perhaps because the current smile on Rika's face was a bit scary, her smile sent a chill down Hikaru's spine. Just imagine a person without eyes and a bloodied face smiling at you in the middle of the night. It's honestly scary.
Rika suddenly spoke again: [Living for the longest time does not mean that master is a coward and that he is weak. Because it is only the strongest that can live the longest.]
Hikaru smiled and raised a finger: "Firstly, I'm not smart and brave enough to understand this world. Who created the fog? Who created the system? Who brought the players to this world? I don't know and I don't want to know."
Hikaru raised his second finger again and said: "Secondly, as you said, the one who lives the longest is the strongest. So, I've decided that my life motto is to stay out of trouble as much as possible.
"Third..." Hikaru held up another finger and said, "Currently, I can provide resources for myself. The Hell Lotus can generate soul points. The farmers can learn how to grow crops and produce food. That's why I don't need to fight other players for resources. As for the treasure chest, I can let Saraya, Vuni, or the monsters I summon search for them. Besides, I have a teleportation skill, so it shouldn't be a big problem. "
Rika was silent for a moment when she heard Hikaru's words. Then she asked
[Are you a NEET, Master? Do you have a socialphobia?]
Hikaru: "..."
The two were silent for a long time, and Hikaru replied, "Actually..." I don't just want to risk my life. I just want to live until this game is over. "
[Master, you are really cowardly.]
Hearing Rika's words, Hikaru was naturally a little embarrassed. However, he also did not want to risk his life. Now everything was going well. He had Saraya and Vuni, an SSS level skill, the Hell Lotus, and even a farmer's house... Hikaru had almost no need to communicate or trade with other players.
Hikaru knew he was a coward, but he really wanted to live. It was hard to live in a world like this. He didn't want to die early. Anyone who wants to be a hero can do the job. Hikaru just wants to live his life .
In fact, Hikaru wasn't that cowardly at first. However, when he heard Rika talk about horrible existences that surpassed even the existence of the system, he was really scared.
He also doesn't have any skills similar to comic book heroes that he can use to turn around a situation, and he also didn't have the power of friendship. Please... this was reality, not a comic book.
Rika sighed dejectedly and said: [I respect your decision.]
Then, the space shattered, and Hikaru found himself still standing in the living room. It seemed like only a second had passed.
Hikaru sighed. He thought maybe his answer had disappointed Rika. However, Hikaru also had no intention of changing his purpose.
Explore the world? If you don't have enough strength to explore the world, it's like turning yourself into food for the fog monsters.
Unravel the mysteries of this world? Don't joke; beings as strong as gods are probably looking at us. One breath from them is enough to turn us to dust.
So, the only thing Hikaru wanted to do right now was stay out of trouble, become strong, and survive until the end of the game.
Hikaru was about to call Saraya and Vuni to ask about Anno's situation when suddenly he felt something coming. Suddenly, everything around him turned black and white, and time seemed to stand still.
Hikaru was startled when he noticed a person sitting in his living room. Although the person was surrounded by a white curtain that made it impossible for Hikaru to see the person's face, he still recognized the person as a woman.
She was wearing a dress similar to an evening gown. She sat cross-legged, one of her hands resting on the table, the other on her lap. This elegant and seductive posture, even though the woman's face was not clearly visible, would still make it difficult for any man to resist her.
However, Hikaru did not have the courage to appreciate the beauty of the woman in front of him. His instincts told him that she was extremely dangerous.
Hikaru was sweating because he was feeling an overwhelming pressure from the woman. Still, he managed to stay calm and asked, "May I know who you are?"
Hikaru's words were full of respect. He wanted to use his skill to see the information about the woman in front of him, but then he didn't use it. Because if she found out that he had peeked at her stats, he was afraid to
The woman looked at Hikaru silently for a long time before she spoke and said, "I am Anno's mother. My name is Selvih, the Dark Elf queen. "
When Hikaru heard that, he felt a chill down his spine. He began sweating profusely. He wanted to cry but couldn't. Tears wouldn't come out. If he knew Anno's mother was this powerful, he would have chased Anno out of his territory immediately.
Hikaru took a deep breath and said, "Anno is resting in her room. If you want to take her, I can...
"No!"
Hikaru was confused by Selvih's sudden refusal. The atmosphere was silent again. Hikaru was extremely confused as to how to deal with her. Selvih saw Hikaru panicking , and she let out a sweet, enchanting laugh. When Hikaru heard her laugh, he felt that her charm was more potent than that of the Succubus.
"What's wrong? Aren't you going to use me to destroy your enemies? "
Hearing Selvih's words, Hikaru mentally scolded: 'Damn it, if I knew you were so powerful, I wouldn't have tried to trick you.'
Hikaru was beginning to regret his decision, but in this world, there was no medicine for regret. He felt that no matter how smart he was, in the face of absolute strength, all his tricks were child's play.
Selvih said, with a smile, "I don't want to bring her back. What do you think if I leave her in your care?"
Hikaru was terrified. Was this a joke? He didn't want to die early. He quickly said, "I'm sorry. I will release Anno immediately. "
"You don't seem to understand what I mean." Selvih shook her head and said, "I want to leave Anno here. You would help me take care of her."
"No no no..." Hikaru immediately refused. Even if Selvih's words were true, he didn't want to keep Anno here. From his many years of experience reading novels, he knew for sure that Anno would surely attract trouble.
Hikaru said, "I don't want trouble, I just want to quietly develop my territory. I captured Anno because she wanted to infiltrate my territory. And truthfully, I did intend to use you to destroy my enemies. So how do you want me to compensate you?"
Selvih found this young man in front of her a little interesting. She said: "Why? Anno is very beautiful. She can also use a lot of support skills, which can help you a lot. ƒ𝚛𝐞𝚎𝑤𝘦𝚋𝓷o𝚟e𝘭.c𝐨𝙢
Hikaru shook his head and said: "I don't need support magic or anything related to it . As long as you take her away, I will do anything you ask for. "
"Hahaha..." Selvih laughed heartily upon hearing that. It was as if she hadn't laughed so much in a long time. However, Selvih's laughter was not displeasing but very charming; it was like the sound of wind chimes on an autumn afternoon.
"This is the first time someone has chased my daughter away like this. Do you know that there are many nobles and people of high status who are willing to give up everything just to see my daughter once? "
Hikaru scorned Selvih's words, as he thought: 'Then bring Anno back to those who want to see her. I have no need for her. Important things must be said three times.'
"Good!" Selvih suddenly stood up and approached Hikaru. He dared not move. Sweat was pouring out of him like a bath. Selvih lifted Hikaru's chin with her fingers; their faces were so close that he could smell a fragrance that made his mind reel in ecstasy.
"Your behavior makes me very pleased. I can now leave Anno to you with peace of mind. "
"Pks!" Hikaru almost spat out a mouthful of blood at Selvih's words. He scolded himself: 'What about me are you satisfied with? I will change it.'𝙛𝘳𝒆𝒆𝒘e𝗯n𝗼𝘷𝚎𝚕.𝒄૦𝓶
