Skill Creation in the Fantasy World

Felix and Steve spent the next few hours in the room talking and discussing; they also went to the dining hall and had dinner before returning back to the room to continue.

Once Steve had finished answering all the questions, he left Felix alone in the room saying he had some work to do with him joining their team.

Sitting on the chair while looking out the window at the setting sun, Felix closed his eyes and processed all the new information.

'That was too much to remember....'

As he had asked more than a few hundred questions in one take, Felix was feeling more than just exhausted as his mind was getting a bit heavy.

But the details of the information were of more importance and complicated which brought a great headache to him.

'Sigh.....Is this for real? More than 20 continents in this Elangar world??'

You're right, there were more than twenty continents on this planet named Elangar, and that's coming from what Steve knew currently.

The map of this world would look like drawing two perpendicular lines to each other, and then tilting it at an angle of 45 degrees, making a X-like division on the map.

Which divided the World's map into the Northern, Southern, Eastern, and Western Seas.

Each of the four Seas had several continents, some small like islands and some enormous that were a hundred times larger.

The country that Felix was currently residing in, the Drakovia Kingdom, was one of the many countries in the continent of Trevol, which was a fairly large continent in the Western Seas.

As Felix got to know about the enormous geographical size of this world, he decided it wouldn't benefit him much to know everything at once, and instead, it would be good if he just concentrated on the information of the Drakovia Kingdom they were in.

So he didn't ask Steve more questions about the rest of the Kingdoms, Continents, or the Seas, and instead focused on what the boy knew of this kingdom at least.

Located on the westernmost part of the Trevol continent, the Drakovia Kingdom which the Draken Royal Family ruled, had Nine Great Cities including the Royal Capital Drakov where the majority of the population resided.

Edenmont City was also one of them and was governed by the Ryeagon Duke Family, including several other nearby towns and villages.

In Edenmont City, there were approximately 24 guilds, with 10 of the top ones wielding significant power and authority, presiding over the Guild Council.

In the upcoming Guild war, two of the four enemy guilds that their guild would face were from the Top 10 guilds.

The guild leader of the Twilight Chaos guild, along with the guild leader of a friendly guild were the ones who declared war on the four enemy guilds, with the approval from the head of the Ryeagen Duke Family.

The Twilight Chaos guild was ranked at the 5th, while the friendly guild named the Mystic Society Guild, was ranked at the top 3rd in the guild rankings.

Meanwhile, from the enemy guilds, there was the Crimson Dawn Guild ranked at the top 2nd, and the other was the Fanged Legion which was ranked at the 7th.

The other two enemy guilds which were of not much significance were called the Mad Wolves Guild and the Grey Talons Guild.

Felix took a deep breath and rubbed his forehead a bit from all the sudden information.

"There's no point in thinking about the other kingdoms and continents, what I need now is to focus on getting myself stronger and advance to the first rank."

He said to himself while looking out the window at the dark sky; wondering to himself how he had arrived to this world named Elangar.

"This world seems to be a lot bigger than Earth, almost about a dozen times. And there seem to be many other races living here too...."

Even though Felix wanted to clear his mind of all the random thoughts and meditate, he couldn't stop thinking about the fantasy world he learned about today.

Lost in his thoughts, he eventually got up from the chair and moved to bed, before gradually falling into a deep sleep.

That night, he dreamt of traveling all over this Elangar World, rescuing many beautiful girls and defeating lots of strong monsters.

It was such a nice dream that he had a smile on his face the whole night while sleeping peacefully.

*****

A few hundred miles away from the Edenmont City.

Deep inside the dark forest, there was a hidden makeshift tent with lots of traps around it.

A man wearing a black dusty robe and a hat walked out from the forest and approached the tent.

He raised his hand, where a ring glowed dangerously before turning off.

Continuing his steps, the man entered the tent without activating any traps.

Inside the tent, there were two guards wearing masks and dark robes that covered their entire body.

The guards saluted the hatted man, who gave them a quick nod and walked past them, reaching a small space with stairs that led downstairs beneath the surface of the ground.

The man started descending the stairs, and after a few minutes arrived at a large hall with many people hurrying about doing their tasks.

The man ignored everyone even though they greeted him with respect and fear, and walked deeper inside the labyrinth-like hall before he came across a secret room guarded by a dozen strong men.

He showed them his ring which again gave off a red glow, to which they moved aside and opened the door of the secret room for the man to enter.

There was a large round table inside the secret room with many empty seats, and a few figures could be seen sitting here and there.

Seeing the man walking inside the room and taking the nearest seat, a hoarse voice called out.

"Hehehe, it seems many people don't know their timings...."

There were a lot of dissatisfied harrumphs and snorts followed by the voice, which prompted the man with the hat to give a reply.

"Don't worry, there will be consequences for those who haven't complied with the orders."

Suddenly, the room turned silent as everyone gulped in terror.

The man appeared calm when he said those words, but everyone in the room knew him, and they also knew that he wouldn't say anything without intending to do it.

After a few minutes, some others too entered the room and finally, when the time was right, their meeting started.

Everybody turned their heads to the hatted man who gave a light cough and began with a calm yet mysterious voice.

"It's time we bring down this city to dust...."

*****

The next day, early morning.

"Knock knock knock!"

There were a series of loud knocks, but the silver-haired boy was still sleeping on the bed without a worry.

"Knock! Knock! Knock!!"

Sometime later, the knocks intensified, which almost shocked the door.

"Ughh, who is it?", grumbled a sleepyhead who wanted to rest some more on the bed.

"Wake up Felix! We're going on a mission today!", Steve's excited voice could be heard from outside.

Felix rubbed his sleepy eyes in slumber and turned around the bed while muttering, "Mission?"

"Yes, a mission! Come on, open the door already!"

Suddenly, Felix opened his eyes wide in the realization of what he heard and jumped out of his bed.

"Wait really?", he quickly moved and walked over before opening the door.

There stood a green-haired boy, with a huge smile on his face who seemed to be very happy for some reason.

Felix was quick to ask as he wanted to confirm what he had heard face to face.

"Steve, did you just say we're going on a mission?"

Nodding his head, Steve pointed toward some other rooms on the corridor and replied.

"Yup, you heard it right. Roven and Eric are already getting ready, so I decided to inform you of it."

Felix rubbed his head in annoyance and asked with a sigh.

"Steve, when exactly are we supposed to leave?"

The boy tilted his head in confusion and answered honestly.

"The time? Well, about half an hour later I guess."

His answer didn't comfort Felix at all, who jumped forward and grasped Steve's collar.

"You stupid! How can you just tell me that now?? There's only 30 minutes left for me to get ready!"

Steve called out quickly before he could get hit.

"Wait Felix, I'm sorry. But I don't think we have the time to fight right now...."

Hearing the boy's words, Felix let go of him and shut the room's door before speeding into the bathroom to get ready.

While taking a quick bath, he could hear Steve's voice who seemed to be overly excited about their mission.

"Hurry Felix! There's not much time left."

Scrubbing his body and while washing his face, Felix gritted his teeth and cursed the boy under his breath.

"You asshole.....wait for it. I'll definitely get back to you."
