148 New City!

She wanted to take him back to Xyrus herself but it would be troublesome if someone without an adventurer ID is found in the beast glades at a time like this when the council was on edge about possible foreign invasion.

"Oh, I will do that," Haru said with a bright smile and calm face but he wasn't so calm on the inside.

Haru went towards the north and vanished in the forest leaving Zenobia alone who went towards the adventurer guild quickly so that she doesn't face a situation like before again.

'I do hope we meet again,' Zenobia thought as she looked towards the direction Haru went and then sped up.

***

Haru stopped after he saw that Zenobia was gone and sat down on a tree.

'I guess there is no doubt about it, But I'll have to check it once I see this Xyrus city,' Haru sighed as all he had to do now was to go to Xyrus city next and confirm if it was the same world.

[What happened? Why do you look so stressed?] Kurumi asked with curiosity but her tone was full of cheerfulness.

'I am alone with Ha-kun again,' Kurumi's eyes were shaped into small crescents as her tail swayed.

"I have a hunch of which world this is, Come to think of it Kurumi didn't you read Zenobia's memory can you tell me some things," Haru asked seriously.

[I only skimmed through it, just ask and I'll tell you if it coincides,] Kurumi said happily at this time no matter what Haru asked she would say 'yes'.

"Ok then first what is the name of the kingdoms on this continent?" Haru asked the basic thing.

[Hmm, I don't know all of this but The Carne village was in the kingdom of Sapin on the continent of Dicathen,] Kurumi answered and Haru nodded with a solemn expression.

"Is there anything related to Lances?" Haru asked this question which was the main question.

[Yeah, in her memory they are the strongest of the continent, I saw memories regarding them for you but they aren't special though, the people here are weak,] Kurumi said plainly as Haru sighed, it is the one he had thought about before.

"So it is that one, Ok," Haru muttered which caught Kurumi's ears.

[Haru do you know about this world?] Kurumi asked.

"Yeah, this world is the same one from the book I read," Haru answered.

[Oh, human imagination coming to life, is it? Umu, it is a very normal occurrence, But does that mean you know about this world doesn't that help you a lot?] Kurumi asked as she came on Haru's lap.

"The thing is I only read a little of this book and seeing that the Lances are running around on the continent my knowledge is limited and as this is a real world and not fiction many things are going to be different," Haru said as he tapped his chin.

'I should've read more, why did I stop at the academy arc? Oh I remember I was spoiled about some things that are important events like Tessia being turned into Arthur's friend from his past life and Elijah turning against Arthur because he had the soul of his dead friend from his past life and he held a grudge against Arthur,' Haru nodded as he remembered the reason now and he hated the person who spoiled it for him even more and he was starting to like the interactions with Tessia and Elijah at the moment, so when he was spoiled he turned salty.

'Anyway, since Lances are already a thing and with how Zenobia said that even adventurers are barred from entering here, I can guess where the timeline is,' Haru thought as he sighed.

"It is near the start of the academy arc," Haru muttered and he had no information moving forward now.

[What does it matter? You have me,] Kurumi said as she raised her nose high.

"Yes, I have the super helpful Kurumi after all," Haru said as he petted her and saw her tails sway.

'Well, it is not like I am scared of someone here, I'll just use this place to increase my power, I don't care who it is if they get in my way I'll make them my exp.' Haru thought and then cringed at how he sounded like a cultivation novel MC.

'Well, The author is at fault for this go and beat him up,' Haru thought and nodded.

CAW*

Raum who was missing came and sat on his leg.

"Where have you been? And what is this?" Haru asked as he saw Raum had a shiny golden ring that was studded with gems.

"Which dead body did you take this from now?" Haru titled his head and looked inside he felt a little resistance from the ring but it didn't last long he saw a lot of money golden, silver, copper you name it, the ring was full of it.

Haru even found a map in it and took it out to see. He saw the thing he had expected to see and fully confirmed it, this world is the same as 'The Beginning After The End'. Haru just nodded and sighed in relief as the map looked like what he had seen before.

Haru looked through the ring once more, there was also a set of golden armour and a golden spear with food and potions.

The armour looked of good quality if going by the system ranks it will reach about C+ rank which was S rank in Solo levelling world.

CAW*

"He is not dead yet? What does that mean?" Haru titled his head as heard Raum.

"Ok don't rob people it will be bad if you get caught," Haru said sternly.

CAW* CAW*

Raum cried out saying 'If I don't get caught so it is fine right?'

Haru smacked his forehead because his words did sound like that as Kurumi giggled while Raum tilted his head wondering if he had said anything wrong.

"Well whatever, now let's get this arc started for real shall we," Haru said as he stood up and ran towards the mountain range at full speed.

Deeper inside the forest about 1 km away from the smoke cloud. Three figures were flying in the air looking at the place seriously.

"Lance Varay the heat seems to have gotten weaker," Olfred said as he felt like the threat he felt before was gone.

"Looks like something happened? We should make haste," Varay said as she got her weapon from her storage ring which was an ice sword that had a flower pattern on the cross guard. The sword excluded a chilly aura like it will freeze everything in sight.

'No matter how many times I use it, this weapon always amazes me, Miss Zenobia is a Master Blacksmith. If only she took our offer to join the council,' Varay thought but quickly focused on the task at hand.

"Yes, it looks like something happened," Bairon said as he extended his hand to equip his weapon but nothing happened.

"?" Bairon was dumbfounded and looked at his right hand in surprise.

"What happened Lance Bairon?" Olfred asked as he and Varay looked back.

"My….. Storage ring is... missing?" Bairon said with a dumbfounded expression as he knew how stupid it sounded.

'I don't want to take care of another child, Mica is enough of a headache already,' Olfred smacked his forehead as he didn't know what to say.

".." Even the expressionless Varay had her eyes twitching.

"You might've forgotten it in the base, Anyway let's not delay this," Varay said in a static tone as she moved forward towards the scene.

'Yes, It should be in the base,' Bairon nodded and followed after Varay with Olfred but needless to say he didn't find his ring again.

This became a popular topic among the lances as even the most careless of the Lances, Mica has never lost her space ring But Bairon lost it. It was amusing indeed.

***

It has been a few days since Haru found out that this world was the world of The beginning after the end. After carefully moving so that he doesn't get discovered by anyone he came out of the beast glades and made his way to the nearest city with a teleportation gate.

Right now he was in Valden city's teleportation Gate.

"Next please," The female receptionist at the table asked and Haru walked in front of her.

"…." The lady looked up and her eyes widened and she gulped.

"Um, Hello?" Haru said as he had kind of gotten used to these looks by now.

"…..C-Can I see your ID?" The receptionist asked with her face burning up.

"Here," Haru gave her his ID and she checked it and then gave it back to him after entering it on the registry.

"The cost will be 2 silvers," The receptionist said as she calmed herself while stealing glances at Haru.

"Here you go, Thank you," Haru said as he handed her 2 silver coins from his sleeves and then walked into the building after she gave him a receipt.
