"I Leveled up twice," Erend muttered with a sigh of relief.
Erend decided not to do anything just yet with whatever Points he had now. He waited for the right ti to use it.
Now that the Daily Quest was over, Erend opened the Portal back to his world.
The portal appeared shortly after and Erend stepped inside. When he returned to his room Billy and Lt. Boartusk is still there. They were busy looking at Anna's cell phone.
"What did you get?" Erend asked.
"A lot of things," Billy said. "You know that LTC. Ibis and LTC. Coil was planning to take the key from the start. I an, since they knew about the key's whereabouts."
"They imdiately thought of using us as soon as they heard that we ca with a ssage from the Elf," Lt.Boartusk added.
Erend wasn't surprised by that anymore.
"Is there any information about how they were able to open the Portal? It's not sothing that is natural for humans, is it?" Erend asked.
"Yeah, apparently there's a woman who can translate Quenya," Billy said.
"Quenya?" Erend furrowed his brow.
"The language of the Elves," Billy answered his bewildernt.
"Oh." Erend nodded. Then he walked to the bathroom to clean himself up.
"What the hell? What happened to you, Drake?!" Lt.Boartusk who raised his head from the cellphone gave a startled cry to see Erend's body covered in blood.
Erend turned to them. "Oh, this? Don't worry, Lieutenant. It's not my blood."
"Then whose blood?" Billy was surprised when he realized it.
Erend sighed. "I'll explain after I take a shower."
So Erend rushed to take a shower. After a while, he ca out and imdiately told everything.
He told them that he had just killed a creature like a half-bird human. Erend had expected their reaction. But he continued.
Erend tells that he has to do so kind of task every day. The task was given by the mysterious power he possessed.
When Billy and Lt. Boartusk asked about his power, Erend of course couldn't give an explanation that easy for them to understand.
Erend wasn't worried to tell his strength. Because he completely trusted Billy and Lt. Boartusk. After they had been on the battlefield together for so long and risked their lives every day, Erend felt that they were like brothers.
After all, even if they were planning to betray him, they wouldn't have anything to tell as Erend's weakness. Because according to Erend himself, there is no weakness in this Dragonborn's strength.
Billy and Lt. Boartusk decided to no longer ask about Erend's strength. Instead, they move on to more important topics. Get the crystal key to the Fountain of Eternity and clear their na.

Daemons of Calamity, are brown-bodied humanoid creatures with horns on their heads.
Their intelligence was no higher than that of the Elves. But no matter how inferior they are, they can still use Magic.
Apart from Magic. Daemons of Calamity can also use poison. They were creatures who hated Elves greatly because of their long history.
The Daemons of Calamity were slaves of the Elf race from a very long ti ago. They were ordered to do hard work without any compensation. Treated arbitrarily and without rcy. In the eyes of the Elves, they were no more valuable than cattle.
But the slavery ended after a Daemon declared resistance. He led all the Daemons to start bravely against the Elves. All of that, of course, they did in secret at first.
Baldom is the na of the Daemon who has enough charisma to influence other Daemons to start fighting.
He began to study how the Elves used Magic, how they read and write, and how they created various potions.
Until finally Baldom managed to get sothing very valuable and extraordinary. The Book of Gúl dolen.
A book containing a secret script for studying the Magic power of the Elves. With that book, coupled with the knowledge Baldom had gained, they finally started to openly rebel.
As of now, the book is still in the hold of the Daemon of Calamity. They still couldn't translate all of the contents but at least they could use the Elves' Destruction Magic.
After they succeeded in carrying out a rebellion with an unexpected attack, the Daemons of Calamity managed to repulse the Elves.
After that, they started their own civilization. Even though they have the Book of Gúl dolen, they still can't beat the Elves.
The Elves' Magic power was superior to theirs. Especially with the Fountain of Eternity.
The water from the Fountain of Eternity could heal the Elves' wounds instantly and even revive them if they hadn't been dead for too long.
That caused the Daemon of Calamity to be unable to defeat them. Once news of the key to unlocking the gates to the Fountain of Eternity was lost from the hands of the Elves, the Daemon of Calamity was delighted.
The power of the Elves had indeed been greatly reduced without the source of their sacred water. But it turns out that their strength still can't break the Magic shield that protects the Elf palace.
"(Lord Baldeem, a new ssage has been sent to us again)" A Daemon relayed a ssage to Baldeem.
Baldeem is the thirteenth descendant of Baldom. He now sits as king in the Daemon of Calamity kingdom.
"(What did they bring?)" Baldeem looked excited because if 'they' ca, then 'they' would bring sothing very important to them.
'They' had also co to give them a ssage about the Elves who had lost the key to the Fountain of Eternity. Without information from 'Them', they wouldn't know about it.
Even so, 'they' rarely t Baldeem. 'They' just deliver ssages without showing their faces or forms.
Daemon who ca to et Baldeem took a scroll of paper and handed it to Baldeem. Baldeem accepted the scroll with a happy face and started reading it.
After a few minutes of reading, his eyes lit up with pleasure. His lips parted in a wide smile that revealed sharp teeth.
"(Prepare for to strike,)" Baldeem said.
