Bang! Bang! Bang!
Shin's figure could be seen everywhere as he executed a series of movent techniques during the battle.
His speed lets him leave a series of afterimages while trying to catch up with the Elven Archer., who was keeping a decent distance away from him while shooting a series of arrows.
Shin was having slight trouble catching up to this person, especially when he noticed that the Elven Archer was able to maintain his sanity despite the growing demonic corruption that was trying to dominate his mind.
It was as if he was able to control the powers of the artificial seed of hatred unlike Jorn, who had already lost himself ages ago and beca a mindless demon. Continue reading on empire
The five-minute duration of Jorn's invulnerability passed not long ago, giving Shin the window to end his life, and forcing him to log out of the ga.
But the Elven Archer, on the other hand, was able to hold his ground for a couple of minutes more before dying under Shin's sword.
But despite that being the case, Shin felt a little unsatisfied, especially after seeing the calm eyes of the latter. He could feel that Even Archer had successfully beco a true Unforgiven One in the real world.
He clearly understood the aning of this incident and what kind of impact it could have in the future.
Regardless of the result of the battle, the opposing side, particularly the huge force hiding behind it, had already achieved what they wanted.
He might have won the battle, but it was a bitter one due to what had happened.
"I guess I have to inform Uncle Nathan about this," he mumbled before sweeping his senses in the entire surrounding.
He had spread his Spiritual Sense in every direction, trying to find that mysterious individual accompanying Jorn and the Elven Archer earlier.
He could feel that they were watched earlier during the battle and knew that everything was being recorded by that person. But he did not have the ti to deal with them earlier since he was currently being occupied by the two.
He was planning to deal with them after he had executed the two, but it seed like they were quite decisive at retreating after achieving what they wanted.
"Tsk! They sure ran fast," Shin clicked his tongue after realizing that the person had already left.
After that, he organized his discoveries before sending them to Shiella. He then told her to closely monitor the movents of the guild that had been absorbed by the Seven Seas Corporation.
At the sa ti, he also told her to be careful of the top experts from those organizations since they were experinting with such a dangerous thing.
After so thought, he also sent a ssage to David, informing him about what happened, before connecting with his real-world account and sending a ssage to Nathan.
After making sure that no one was around, Shin went deeper into the map and looked for a spot for grinding.
He had sowhat lost his interest in testing his current progress with his ntalism thod and Swordsmanship, applying all his gains from the real world and converting and integrating them into his fighting style with the ga while also consolidating his realm.
But after careful consideration, he decided to still do just that while waiting for Cloe and Alice to respond to him.
The two seed to be busy with sothing as they were still not logging in to the ga despite being online in the virtual space.
It seed like they were still training, so he didn't want to disturb them yet. He was not in a hurry anyway, so he could still wait for them to finish before asking for their help with his quest.
"I guess I should look for Leonard later to spar with him after I am done consolidating my realm," I mumbled as he went deeper into the forest.

In the anti, Cloe was currently chatting with Shiella as she consulted the latter about her situation.
After listening for a while, Shiella laughed as she answered. "Why are you making it too complicated? Just look for a secondary combat class that is ant for lee battle. But make sure that it is compatible with your main to maintain your advantages."
"For example, since your class is a combination of a Holy Mage and a Priest, you can try looking for a Paladin-related class since it is also capable of wielding divine powers."
"With it as a base, you can try experinting when creating a combat state unique to you. Silly girl, you don't have to follow as an example since our situation is different despite being sowhat similar."
"I can share my experience when creating my unique combat state to give you so inspiration, but you can just copy my thod since my situation is unique."
"Eh!?" as Shiella was explaining, she suddenly got a ssage from Shin. Then her expression suddenly turned serious after reading through its contents.
Seeing the sudden change in Shiella's expression, Cloe could not help but ask. "What's wrong, Big Sis Shiella? Did sothing happen?"
Shiella sighed before smiling bitterly. "That little brother of mine has discovered sothing troubleso and wants to investigate."
She then clicked her tongue as she complained. "Tsk! He keeps on giving a headache every ti I am free. I think he is doing this on purpose!"
"Shin?" asked Cloe as she could only think of him after hearing those words. Arthur was currently busy with the preparations for his breakthrough so there was only Shin who could give Shiella a headache right now.
She then smiled at Cloe as she said. "Anyway, that's it for now. I have to deal with this first since it sounds a little serious."
"I send you a ssage about my experience of creating my combat state later," she added before saying goodbye.
After ending the call, Cloe could not help but mumbled. "I guess Shin gives here another problem to deal with."
"Speaking of which, I think he asked sothing earlier," she added as she finally rembered that Shin was asking her about her Runemaster profession.
"I guess I should log back in the ga now," she mumbled to herself before turning to Alice, who was currently training in the distance.

anwhile, in the main headquarters of the military forces of the Springfield Family, Nathan was currently reading the reports sent to him by their spies when he received a ssage from Shin.
Skimming through it, he knitted his brows quite deeply before mumbling. "Tsk! It seems like this nephew of mine is quite capable even with the virtual world."
He just sent a ssage saying that he got it before turning his head up front.
On the sofa inside his office, Joaquin was currently relaxing while eating so fruits prepared on the table.
"Are you sure about what you have said?" asked Nathan with a solemn tone.
Joaquin clicked his tongue as he answered. "Tsk! Do you think I have the ti for jokes? I assure you that it is a hundred percent accurate."
"I have been living the life of a top-notch spy during my younger days, and you know it, so this information is true," he added before plucking a grape from the table and throwing it into his mouth.
He then continued. "The tail of the rat that we are chasing leads us to both the Top Military School and the Magic Ace Academy, so there is a high chance that there is more than one mole in our ranks."
"What's more, they have penetrated quite deeply as they even reached our core," he paused for a mont before adding seriously. "I am one hundred percent sure that it is one of the mbers of the Elder Council."
"As you know, there is no way for an ordinary mber to know the mission that Bernard had before his capture. Aside from the core mbers of the council and us, there is no way for others to know about it."
"You and I are also aware of Bernard's strength. He may not be our match, but he is still a top-notch expert in Domain Realm, capturing him near our borders without our notice is sothing only an overwhelming power could do."
Joaquin paused before continuing. "Not even the either of us can do that, so only an expert that is of Elder's Level can do that."
Nathan wore a serious expression as killing intent leaked out from his body. "We have to find who it is."
"But we can't dig any deeper since it is an elder from the council. We can't just blindly step into it," said Joaquin.
"Are we going to inform your father?" he asked.
Nathan went silent for a mont before answering. "Let's avoid it telling my father for now. Given his personality, I am sure that he will get to the bottom of this even if he is alone."
"Both Professor Plum and Grandmaster Benn are not present as they guard the forbidden lands while the other elders monitor the movents of other top masters."
"Father will be alone, so it is better to hide it from him for the ti being."
Joaquin nodded his head before squinting his eyes and staring at Nathan. "You are not thinking of doing sothing stupid like investigating it alone, are you?"
Nathan looked at Joaquin with a strange expression. "Do you think I am that foolish?"
Hearing that, Joaquin could finally relax and nodded. "That's good. At least you are not blinded by your rage."
"Anyway, I will be going for now. I still have other things to do. I'll contact you again later once I've more information," he added before leaving.
In the anti, Nathan went silent as he leaned his back on the chair before staring at the ceiling. He silently and repeatedly tapped his finger on the armrest while his thoughts were unknown.
