BXBX NOVEL Chapter 209 New Races?
[Annabelle Dark]
[I saw something strange today Ace. Really strange],
Many thoughts raced through my mind as I read the text on the panel again.
For one thing, I was able to confirm that Anna was not dead, but based on her message, it appears she had an unusual encounter with something.
But, then, what's with Anna and her treatment of the contact system as if it were a free social media app?
Is she that rich and has a lot of money to spare?
I willed my thoughts through the primordial chronicle to reply to Anna as I pondered these things.
[What is the strange thing you saw?]
After confirming to send the message, the texts on the panel vanish and new ones appear.
[Message cost 25 silver coins. Do you wish to send?],
When I saw how many coins it took to send a message to Anna, I just shook my head and didn't bother trying to calculate how far apart we were and just sent the message.
After that, I took several deep breaths to calm my exhausted body and stood up before turning to harvest the useful materials from the monster's body without pausing to rest or wait for Anna's response.
As I continued to harvest materials from the earth gator, such as its remaining good scales, teeth, blood, and other things while thinking of random thoughts, time passed slowly until I finished everything I was doing on the earth gator's body before turning to exchange its remaining corpse in the store section of the primordial chronicle's exchange sub option.
After this was done and I prepared to leave the area, I heard a bell-like sound in my head, and didn't think too much about it when I heard it since it was a sound i had heard before and knew what it meant.
It was a sound that came with a message from someone in my contact list, and the only person who should have sent one now should be Anna, but when I turned to see who sent the message, it wasn't Anna but someone else, and there was only someone else in my contact list right now.
[Caleb Rock],
[Are you down to talk? Please contact me when you see this message],
This was the message's content, but the few words were enough to convey the urgency in Celeb's words.
'I wonder what he wants,' I thought as I replied to him.
[What is it?]
After willing my thoughts through the primordial chronicle to send this message, the usual text that appears before the message is sent appeared on the panel in front of me.
[Message cost 44 silver coins. Do you wish to send?],
After I sent this message while thinking about what Caleb might want from me as I continued on my way, It didn't take long for Anna's message to arrive.
[Annabella Dark]
[Today I saw some unusual species. It's better to say I encountered a strange race today rather than some strange species. I believe I saw the fabled elves],
I had a number of expectations due to my curiosity curious about what the strange thing Anna encountered was, but none of them had anything to do with meeting new races and elves.
This was not a minor issue, but rather a serious one because this was the real world.
Elves should not appear in the real world because this was not a story.
No.
That mindset is incorrect. My thoughts and ideas appear to be still limited to my understanding of the old world.
Maybe Elves are normal in the magical world, but still.
Elves.
A race that could only be imagined.
I'm curious about what they look like.
As I was thinking about these things, I sent Anna a message in response.
[We'll talk more back home],
'Send'
[Message cost 24 silver coins. Do you wish to send?],
'Huh?'
'It reduced by one silver coin,' I thought when I noticed the reduction of a silver coin during the messaging process, but I decided not to dwell on it too much and simply sent the message.
After that, I continued to hunt until late in the evening, adding more kills to my job progress.
...…..
"And done," I muttered as I exchanged the last corpse of the monster I'd just harvested before summoning the primordial chronicle in my head to check my progress on my job.
...…
[Kill Unranked Monsters using Magic: [100/100]✔
[Kill Rank 1 Monster using magic: [19/50]],
[Kill Rank 1 Monster with the aid of Alchemy: [6/30]],
[Kill Rank 1 Monster with a single hit with the aid of Alchemy: [0/1]],
[Time Limit: 43 Days: 5 Hours: 46 Minutes: 34 Seconds],
...….
It feels good to see everything move and progress like this, but looking at how difficult it is to find weaker monsters because they are so spread out in this vast world, time is still something I still require, but looking at how things are going now, I believe I'll be able to evolve soon.
The fourth job requirement, which was supposed to be easy, turned out to be quite difficult since it was challenging to locate a weak monster and one shot kill at the same time because it appears from my observations that these monsters are also growing.
As I considered this, I dismissed the primordial chronicle panel in front of me, wondering why I hadn't received a response from Caleb.
I've gotten a response from Anna but not from him, and I'm curious what Caleb had to do with me to message me, but that was only what I was feeling, so aside from being curious about him, his matter was already in the back of my mind.
While I was thinking about these things, I used the map to find my way back home, killing monsters along the way.
I also considered what I would do when I returned home and whether I would be able to meet up with the entire team.
'I'm curious if the elves Anna met are similar to those in the texts I've read in the past.'
