Dungeon of Pride, Laplace

446 Chapter 446- Transmission Orb

FLAP.. FLAP… the Bloodthorn demonic warhorse flapped its wide draconic wings and sped towards the eastern region of the forest where their home was. The altitude of their flight was high and the land below them looked just like a patch of dark green with small bumps which are actually mountains propping up in between.

"My lord, if I may ask. How do you plan on bringing a guy as big as that into our dungeon?" Since it was undergoing an evolution during the time when Adalinda visited, it did not know about how the Lightning Draconic Serpent was brought in. It only knew what it was told by Irene and Cecilia after it woke up.

"About that…Gulp.. gulp…" Simon drank an elixir and continued "Naturally I'm going to employ the assistance of someone who knows space magic".

-----

Inside a fortress situated not far from the capital city of Ellesmere, was the territory of the Sea God's Trident guild. Adventurers wearing the insignia of the guild, could be seen coming and going out of the grandiose fortress that displayed the prestige of this guild.

The fortress was the headquarters of the guild. Around the fortress, was a vast field specifically used to conduct training for the new recruits and storage houses. At this moment, a sky engine gradually arrived from the horizon, covering the sunlight and casting a huge shadow on the field.

When the air engine slowly landed on the field and its cabin door opened, a man with broad shoulders donning exquisite looking clothes, could be seen coming down from the air engine.

When the many recruits whose eyes were inevitably drawn to the air engine, saw who it was, they immediately bowed their heads in respect.

"Welcome guild master" an assistant who was already waiting there for the man, called out.

Obviously, the man who can command such respect and awe from all the guild members, was none other than the guild master of the Sea god's trident Benny Beckerman himself.

Benny nodded his head and looked at the parchment of paper passed to him while they walked towards the guild headquarters.

"How was your travel mainland?" the assistant asked.

The mainland that the assistant was referring to was used to represent the hundreds of countries that were situated around the middle of the central continent. It is an enormous place with its own sets of laws and rules.

The factions there were numerous and complicated with new powerhouses emerging there every day. Even a top-five guild such as the Sea god's Trident would be considered nothing there.

Most of the experts and high levelled individuals come from there. It could be said that experts are like clouds there, only those that could stand at the top of the mainland could be said to be the true powerhouses of this world.

Their Sea god's trident guild was only a top guild in a third-rate kingdom, it did not have any standing there. However, it did not mean that Benny Beckerman made a useless trip to the mainland. His main objective behind going there was to meet up with a friend.

"I have asked him to take care of Godwin and Raven for me. If possible also take them in a few of their dungeon raids. You should already know, our guild does not have the capital nor the manpower to tackle high ranking dungeons. Our power can only bring us around the upper middle floors of a mid rank dungeon".

"In the first place, it requires the clearance certificate and lots of capital to even get an approval letter from the adventurer's association to dive inside middle and high ranking dungeons. The criterias are especially stringent for guilds like ours, so we can never even get a clearance certificate for high ranking dungeons".

"Staying with a guild such as ours will only suppress his talent. That is why, I want him to experience the vast wide world in the mainland, broaden his horizons and see for himself what true experts are like" Benny Beckerman said smilingly.

"It seems the guild leader dotes on his foster son very much but please don't show it in front of everyone. Or else, people might say you are being biased" the assistant reminded, shaking his head.

It was true that Godwin was a talent like none other that their kingdom has ever seen before but it was not like he was unparalleled. Take the third prince of Ellesmere for example, he was also a talent that was comparable to Godwin.

Glancing at his assistant and knowing what he was thinking, Benny Beckerman sighed and stared at the sky.

"I not telling you to believe everything that I say, but I think that boy is special. When I first found him abandoned in a forest on the mainland, I sensed a special power coming off from him. It was something so brilliant and unique that all the monsters that were there in that forest, did not dare to approach near that boy".

"It was also because of that power that I was able to find him in that dark gloomy forest laden with danger. I must have been out of my mind to have approached him when even those powerful monsters beyond my comprehension were afraid of him. At that time, he was not more than three years old and he was unconscious and badly hurt. I don't know who or what was after him so I took that boy back with me".

The assistant who heard Godwin's origin for the first time was stunned completely, he hurriedly matched Benny's pace and asked "You are telling me that Godwin is someone from the Main Land? Then does that mean he knows where he came from?".

Benny Beckerman shook his head and explained "When I brought him back he was severely injured and on the verge of death. Had it not been for those expensive elixirs I brought from there, that boy's life would have been in danger".

"Anyways, it seemed like he had gone through some post-traumatic experience and since then has lost all of his memories. When he woke up, he did not who he was and what he was doing in that forest injured. If not for that necklace on his neck having his name, it would have been impossible to tell what his name was".

"Ever since then his memories remained locked and with that the power I sensed back then. I do not know who his enemies were back then but I have entrusted him with a good friend of mine. As long as he stays with them he should be out of danger even if he is on the mainland again".

"Who knows this experience might even help him remember his memories from that time and help him awake that power. Besides, Raven is also with him, that child's talent is not bad too, if he stays on the mainland his powers might improve by leaps and bounds".

At some unknown point, while they were talking they had arrived in front of the entrance of their guild headquarters.

"Guild Master" everybody that saw him would bow their heads with respect. The two of them stood in the middle of a teleportation circle carved in the lobby and were swiftly teleported to a room.

"I-I did not know there was such a background attached with Godwin," the assistant said a little speechless after what he heard about the guild master's foster son.

"Don't think too much about it. I kept it a secret at that time to protect him. Now that he is almost as powerful as me, there is no point in me keeping it a secret from you all. Anyways, give me a report of what happened in these past few months while I was away from the kingdom" Benny Beckerman lounged himself on a sofa and asked.

"Yes, first I will start with the battle of the finest tournament that was halted because of the Demon. A couple of weeks after the incident, when the order in the capital was back to normal, the tournament resumed. Of course, some of the participants who were injured fatally failed to partake in it".

"The result of the tournament was as predicted by the guild master. Prince Denzel from the Sanguine Empire took the first place, his sister Alice was second. Third place was a tie between Erwin and Marcus, followed by Hallie and the others…".

Listening to the report of his assistant, Benny was a little surprised. The first place result was already predicted by him thus it did not faze him. What he was surprised by was the second place holder, Alice.

From what he knew, that girl's level was around level 400 and was yet to breach it. Compared to her, the level of the third prince of their kingdom was much higher than her. Yet somehow, she was the one who grabbed the second place.

Benny was a little astonished but when he remembered who her master was, it all made sense. "That old monster must have deliberately stopped her from level to make her focus more on her skills and magic. it's no wonder Erwin lost to her. On the other hand, that son of Brutus has shown quite the potential to be tied with Erwin for the third place".

Benny muttered seemingly to himself. He did not expect he would get an unusual reply from his assistant.

"About that, it seemed like Marcus was able to tie it with Erwin because the latter was tired after going all out against Denzel. Marcus knew that and thus rejected his ranking saying that he did not deserve the third place".

(...)

"Hahaha" Benny Beckerman laughed loudly. He could imagine Brutus doing the same thing during the competition long back during their time. It was no wonder that even his son had that same flippant attitude like his father.
