Chapter 74

With the death of the bosses and the situation in the city stabilized, at least there were no more undead being continually created or resurrected, so by dawn we had regained control. Cha Hae-In explained the situation to me while I stored everything I saw in the fortress in my inventory.

Apparently Loki managed to evacuate the people in the western part of the city towards St. Capitolina Abbey with the help of the crusaders from Prontera Sanctuary, once they secured the people Loki returned to continue fighting, encountering Cha Hae-In below the Palace.

She, along with Iris Irine, Fenris Fenrir and a man who introduced himself as General Karl Johann Spiegel, mounted a counterattack from the palace, managing to wipe out the undead in the nobles' district.

In there she met with Shetinoth and Victoria and together they launched an attack on the center of the city, where the Church had finally mounted another counterattack from the Sanctuary at northwest, almost completely regaining control of the city before dawn.

At this moment the heads of the various city guilds and generals were preparing to invade the fortress in the sky, but they were stopped when a new force came attacking, as she describes it, small bipedal goats with little's Scythes began to invade the city with tons of monsters of different types, Bears, Wolfs, Insects, Snakes...

It was then that they saw that the fortress was shaking incessantly, with clear signs of combat, so my girls reported that I was there and fighting against the master mind of this invasion. Many of the people who had just arrived began to criticize me, but they were silenced by the city's defenders, when they were informed that it had been like this for almost 20 minutes and thanks to me they were able to take control of the city again.

  At that moment they can see how magical attacks begin to come out of the fortress through the roof, as well as one of the Jotuun that fell near where they are with tremors only intensified, with the occasional ray of magic shooting into the sky.

Then they found Chaos who was very badly injured and informed them that the enemy was a Valkyrie and Jotunheim, so all the bastards stayed silent and decided to fight the little goats arguing that it was for the good of the city... a serious mistake since they ended up losing about 50% of their forces by being idiots and attacking carelessly the Baphomet Jr....

Although to tell the truth it's not like they could really help me, they couldn't get past the enormous amount of monsters and undead that had arrived next, not to mention that even if they were I don't think they would even serve as meat shields, so under the arguments of some, the majority won the notion of defending the city.

It really was a huge battle in the city too, they simply stayed alive thanks to the fact that the Baphomet was not really fighting them, since according to Cha Hae-In it was emanating a strange red aura and she could not go to fight it because a huge number of insects arrived, stopping the counterattack and making them retreat.

Apparently Cha Hae-In ended up with a huge phobia of various insects, mainly flies, thanks to the enormous amount of these that attacked the city and that only she and my girls could eliminate them thanks to how fast they moved.

It seemed like there was no way to win, almost half of the city fall in 10 minutes, it was when the archdukes arrived and finally managed to control the situation and take the city back, managing to contain the monsters to the surroundings of the palace at a great cost.

After that they realized the difficulty of the battle in the fortress, when using some type of magic they managed to identify 5 powerful signatures, fighting among themselves, or more specifically 1vs 4 but they didn't have a way to know it. This was the moment when they contacted me through the chat.

"After that, it was at that moment that I quickly began to run towards you, ahead of the rest, but once I managed to climb up the fortress you were done..." Cha Hae-In mentions as she apparently feels guilty for not coming to help me before knowing that she could clearly make a difference if she comes.

"Don't worry, it really don't got worse and look at me I don't have any scratches!" Of course that's a lie, thanks to Gamer's Body my body doesn't have any wounds but my HP is quite low, only 2 million, but nothing that a Yggdrasil Berry can't fix....

'But it's interesting, apparently they did something to me that prevents me from healing naturally and I'm just waiting to see how long it will take to heal normally again... and my status don't really show anything.....' I think as I finish storing the bodies of the Gigantes and I approach the bodies of the MVPs.

"But that doesn't change the fact that... what are you doing?" Cha Hae-In stops talking when she sees that I am taking Randgris's body and put her in my inventory.

Now I can give my simple and true explanation that I plan to revive her and to do so I will surely need her body, or at least I think it will be easier that way, or I invent something... but without really understanding why, I gave the stupidest answer I could think of.

"Is it still warm?" At that moment she just stares at me dumbfounded, apparently she doesn't understand what I said, although I start to hear incessant dings in my system...

'Don't tell me... she was streaming!?'

[Yoruichi: Damn, I didn't know you liked that! You are really into some Hardcore stuff #Leonhard!

Nighthingale: ?????

Pyrrha: ????

Fairy of Frozen Beauty: ????

Kurumi: .... Scum.

Kuroka: I know that among the Devils there are strange people... but it is really rare to find people with tastes like this...

Serana: ?? Everyone goes through a phase like this, it's really not very surprising, the undead never get tired and never stop moving, so they are very good at their job, you just have to find a well-endowed one.

Pyrrha: !!!!! 

Yoruichi: Interesting... 

Nightingale: What are you talking about? Roland doesn't want to explain anything to me either!

Fairy of Frozen Beauty: ????

Kuroka: (^._.^)]

'Shit... now I've lost all the respect they could have for me... all because of something stupid that occurred to me to say... at least Sarah and Randgris don't really understand either as they see me with question marks above their heads.. .'

"That was a joke, a bad one at that, to tell the truth I can bring them back to life but first I'm going to go talk to my wife's boss, I really don't want to commit a taboo by trying to do something good." I quickly explain although the look that Cha Hae-In is giving me is really bad, I never thought I would see this kind girl make a face like that.

"You have 1 minutes to explain Leonard, I don't care how strong you are, I won't stop until I get that angel's body back." I was thinking of answering her with something clever but I'm sure he'll attack me without asking if I do...

"I'm going to go to the other world to visit my wife and her boss, she is an expert on people who lost their lives, I can bring them back on my own, but I don't really understand how her resurrection system works, they are supposed to be Valkyries, so they should have returned to Valhalla to rest eternally until the Ragnarok, but for reasons I cannot understand they stayed here as spirits." I quickly explain and Sarah turns to look at me surprised, although she lowers her head and seems to be thinking something... Randgris does nothing, she just bows a little to me.

I can hear more Dings in my system but I know very well that I should not break eye contact with Cha Hae-In, I really don't care much what they think of me but I don't want to finish as some class of necrophilia maniac and it is always better to have cordial relations with everyone, one should not go creating enemies for anywhere.

"Sigh.... you're not lying to me are you?" In the end Cha Hae-In speaks in front of me, looking me directly in the eyes as she does so.

"Why should I lie to you? I don't gain anything by doing it." Although I don't gain anything if I do it either.

She continues looking at me and looks at her cell phone, closing her eyes and sighing again, although we don't really have time for this so I continue doing what I do, putting Sarah's body in my inventory and moving towards the pinecone aka Ymir's heart next.

"Who is the person who can help them come back to life? I don't think you have a problem with us knowing, right?" I see in the chat and Yoruichi was the one who asked that....

"Hmmm technically no, but there really is a slight problem...." At that moment I frown.

'What the hell am I doing... Why I'm acting like I'm mentally retarded... wait, am I having fun?' Practically at the moment it seems as if Gamer's Mind is failing, my emotions are not uncontrolled, they are simply released... 'Interesting...'

Once I come to, I see Cha Hae-In in front of me, frowning, however I once again control everything, realizing that what I really did... I wonder if that was my true personality, I clearly acted like a idiot teen, but I don't remember any of my lives being that young...

"I apologize, I really wasn't thinking, so the one we should go with is Death." Cha Hae-In shows a surprised face when I apologize.

"Death? What do you mean with that?" As I thought, I already lost their confidence and trust, although both Valkyries also show a face of confusion and surprise at what I said.

"I have to go to the other world, the next life, underworld, Hel? To meet my wife's boss and it's really not a place where living beings should go." I start saying various names so you have an idea of what I'm talking about, since I don't know if it is forbidden for mortals to know this or not.

[Yoruichi: Wait a minute, are you going to something like Soul Society?]

"Yes Yoruichi, I am going to Niflheim, to meet my wife and request an audience with Lady Death in person so I will probably ending in Eljudnir.... Although of course this will be after I help Kuroka and the others return to their respective worlds."

"Lady Death? Why someone.... ohhh."  Cha Hae-In understands and I can see that the Valkyries are surprised too... although now that I think about it, It could be possible for this to go wrong considering they are sacred forces entering the world of the dead... well that's something for my future self to worry about.

"That's right, she is Death in person, nothing like Hades who simply uses her authority, she is death itself." While I'm talking I hear several dings so I look at the chat again.

[Pyrrha: You don't have to worry about us, we're fine here.

Kuroka: That's right nya! It's not like we're in danger, I don't think it's appropriate to make that person wait for us nya.

Kurumi: ....

Yoruichi: Hopefully you can stream what happens when you meet.]

Without further ado I continue looking at this huge pinecone, and I try and I can actually store it in my inventory, the only thing that left me with a lot of questions was that the Gigantes drop an armor called Sarah's Battle Robe... so that its why I have 3 of them... but why the hell did they have that?

I keep looking at the place and I think I already collected everything, so we have to g... I see a little movement and to my surprise I find someone or rather something I didn't expect to see... a two-handed sword that according to my system is a monster too, called Tartanos.

Now, as a normal gamer I should be completely happy about this, but I really don't want anything to do with this sword, I clearly feel that I will only have problems if I have it with me. And it doesn't help much that I'm clearly feeling a strange attraction to owning it, I don't really have Gamer's Mind active...

[Tartanos Rank: Celestial  Type: Two-handed Sword

[Reclaim Item?]

[Y/N]

'Sigh... if I had Gamer's Mind active I would definitely accept it, but I can't risk being controlled by this sword no matter how good it is... so even though it hurts a lot I can't accept it'

"Cha Hae-In, please get ready, I'm going to do something stupid, Sarah, Randgris, for now I'm going to put both of you in my inventory, I hope to see each other again soon, in the meantime think about whether you really want to come back to life or not." I only see how Randgris smiles and nods while Sarah looks me in the eyes and looks away...

"Who are you talking to? Isn't Sarah the dark skinned blonde Valkyrie?" Cha Hae-In asks me, looking around for the person I'm talking to.

'Huh? She can't see their souls? But they could see Himmelmez and Bijou... Do I really do some kind of cosmic magic to allow people to see spirits?' This only raises more suspicions within me, since clearly I still use that strange power that allows you to see souls, why aren't theirs affected?

"Yes, I was talking to her, both of them were here, at least their souls, now prepare to go down." I really don't know what will happen when he denies the sword, but I'm sure it won't be anything good...

So after telling her that and without further ado I kneel and put my hand on the ground, selecting the negative option in the menu........

Huh? Nothing happened?

*Rumble*  *Rumble*  *RUMBLE!!!* 

'I really had to ask..' 

*DING!*

I immediately start running with Cha Hae-In towards our exit? Although as we run and I look back I notice something really strange.... and a new idea enters my head, so I bend to the ground again and with a thought I store the fortress we were in my inventory...

  [Dark Whisper: The Dark Whisper is the flying fortress of Valkyrie Himmelmez, the Necromancer. The fortress is able to float due to Himmelmez's power and thus requires great effort from her in order to fly long distances. As such, the fortress is usually grounded at times to allow Himmelmez to regain her power.]

I got my own Flying Fortress! Thanks to this I was able to recover a little from the loss of the sword. As we fall in the sky I take Cha Hae-In in princess carry, you need to be a gentleman all the time and use [Body Relocation] to get us down to the ground, finally finishing this problem, I quickly put Cha Hae-In on the ground and we start to the central plaza of Prontera. Let's see what the new notification I had was when we started running away...

The only thing I can do is stand still looking stunned at the rewards I received, staying still, taking my hand to rub my eyes, which really doesn't help since when I close my eyes I still see the system.

I hear a woman voice and someone appears in front of me, a beautiful blonde woman, with a beautiful dress and some...

I can only shyly look at the name above her head..

A/N: Explanation of Weapons.

To tell the truth, I only put the grades of the weapon for the sake of putting them and not just put the number 1, 2, 3 in it, in fact I was really thinking of eliminating it completely, but... it doesn't feel the same without it.

So I'm going to explain it a little here. The weapon grades/ranks are: Low, Common, Uncommon, Rare, Super Rare, Unique, Legendary, Mythical, Immortal and Celestial.

To tell the truth, immortal and celestial would be demigod and god, since I really didn't like it very much simply calling it a God Weapon, so I called them Celestial Weapon, you can tell me which is better or which one do I stick with, since I haven't really placed the weapons of that level yet. Now a little explanation about these ranks:

Low: Weapons that are poorly made or faliures. Its very rare to encounter one.

Common: Normal weapons in Ragnarok Online they are the Level 1 Weapons. Mainstream weapons and items

Uncommon: Better that normal weapons. Level 2 Weapons. Relatively normal, but a little more difficult to obtain, generally obtained by orders.

Unique: This would be more of a separate rank, since there is only 1 unique weapon/armor of its type, an example would be any weapon that Leonhard forge/upgrade, although once he forge more of said weapon it loses this rank. Danwbreaker is a example of this, since Leonhard duplicated it, it became legendary.

Super Rare: Normal/Neutral Level 3 Weapons Weapons and some Level 4 weapons. A explample the weapon Golden Mace that is a level 4 weapons that only is a mace made of gold, that really don't sound to legendary to me.

Legendary: Especial or Elemental Level 3 Weapons and some Level 4 weapons, made by 'morthals'. An example is the Level 4 weapon Cutlus An one-handed sword popularized by its use by sea adventurers. Enables use of Level 5 Bash, STR + 5 DEF +10. Practically weapons that give you some status effect or useful skills (Although I still haven't decided whether to leave this example weapon as only Super-rare... I'll decide later.).

Mythical: Especial Rank 4 weapons will be here, practically the almost or low 'demi-god' weapons of the game, or with 'flavor text' in them. An example the Crescent Scythe that in reality it does nothing, its only a spear, but the text says: A heavy scythe that is usually carried by the Grim Reaper. So yes, I'll pretty much decide how to do it on my own and ocassonaly give them some powers to make it more 'mythical'.

Immortal: Rank 4 weapons. Practically the heave and cheaty weapons, usually obtained from difficult MVPs, they generally have something to do with gods or heroes of legend. Example the weapons put before and Spectral Spear The creator of this formidable Two-Handed Spear sacrificed his own life to forge it, resulting in a curse that will try to dominate the wearer's soul. It gives 10% resistance against shadow and Demon races, and gives 20% damage to them. Of course I'm going to add some buffs to their effects to make them worthy of being demigod weapons...

Celestial: Level 5 Weapons. Practically the new weapons that are broken, so they only exist in the type of special MVP weapons series, such as Thanatos, Wicked and Flush series. Example Flush Blocking Spear [2] Atk + 10%. Increases Vanishing Point damage by 20%, increase Shield Shooting damage by 20%. (Imperial Guard Job Skills)

If refine rate is 7 or higher, Atk + 70, increases attack speed (reduces delay after attack by 10%)

If refine rate is 9 or higher, increases Vanishing Point damage by additional 15%, increases Shield Shooting damage by additional 10%, increases physical damage against all size enemies by 15%, increases SP consumption of Vanishing Point and Shield Shooting by 20.

If refine rate is 11 or higher, reduces global cooldown by 15%, increases Vanishing Point damage by additional 10%, increases Shield Shooting damage by additional 10%, increases SP consumption of Vanishing Point and Shield Shooting by additional 20. 

[Bonus by grade] 

[Grade D] P.Atk + 10. 

[Grade C] Increases Vanishing Point damage by 10%, increases Shield Shooting damage by 10%. 

[Grade B] Increases physical damage against all property enemies by 10%. 

[Grade A] Increases Vanishing Point damage by additional 10%, increases Shield Shooting damage by additional 10%.

Yes, really you just look at it and you say that shit should be banned, but for now this would be all about weapon ranks, about armor.... Yes I will just do what I want with them they implemented the level 2 ones so I have my celestial armors there.

Greetings and thanks for reading my novel
