Chapter 22 - The Hidden Old City.

You can see a flying car that is about to land.

Get out of Victor from the car then walk into the Guild.

"Brak" the sound of the guild door opening

"Where's Liem?" Shouted Victor

All the eyes of the people in the guild room were on Victor.

Walk Victor towards the Guild Receptionist.

"Did Liem come here today?"  Asked Victor to the Receptionist Icha.

"Yes. He 'Liem' this morning came here and has gone with his friends to take the mission to collect the Night Butterfly" Icha replied casually.

"It's not really what you are looking for him" Icha asked Victor

"No, I just have a little business to him" said Victor in answer to Icha's question.

The people within the Guild are gossiping

"Looks like the new kid has been looking for trouble to the commander" said someone gossiping

"Hahaha let me be sure this time he won't be able to act arrogant again" Said someone gossiping.

"Yes, I'm sure he new kids will die this time" Said Someone gossiped

Rumors quickly spread within the Military Academy about Victor looking for Liem and rumors that Victor would teach Liem a lesson.

 …

A few hours later.

You can see Liem, Roberto, Andy and Khan come into the Guild room.

"Hahaha is it true?" Roberto's voice was joking with Liem, Andy and Khan.

"Yes, that's how the woman finally rejected the man according to the Manga that I read" Said Khan

"It's really sad the manga story," said Andy

All eyes in the Guild room were looking at the four of them who casually walked towards Receptionist Icha to hand over the results of her Butterfly Night Mission.

Everyone whispered to each other whispered gossip even though it was wrong information.

"Hi, Beautiful Icha, we want to hand over the Butterfly Mission Tonight, we got a lot of tablets," Khan said to the receptionist Icha

"Oalah you are great, yes, you get so many Butterflies Tonight where" asked Icha

"Where else but in my love Monster Forest" Andy replied seductively

"The four of you are great, okay, I'll take this and I'll get you your reward for a moment," Icha said.

"This is 200 Emerald Coins, each bag of 100 Emerald Coins" said Icha who was seen giving 2 pockets.

"Okay, thank you, beautiful," said Andy

"Oh yes, Liem, Victor came here looking for you," Icha said

"What's the commander looking for you Liem?"  Andy asked Liem

"I don't know if I haven't seen him in a while," Liem replied

 …

Milka, Santos and Juan were seen walking over to Victor.

"Hey Commander, what are you doing here alone?" Asked Milka to Victor who was relaxing in the garden of the Military Academy.

"No I'm just relaxing" replied Victor

"Why do you guys here yourself are not taking on a mission today" asked Victor

"No, we plan to go somewhere," replied Santos

"Somewhere? Somewhere what" asked Victor

"So we heard that someone found a place in the Monster Forest so we were curious and wanted to immediately check the place. Do you want to come with us?" Said Santos to Victor.

"It's okay but I want to meet Liem first that's why I'm here" said Victor

Suddenly 2 people ran towards Victor, Milka, Santos and Juan.

"Commander" Said the man who turned out to be Takeshi

"What are you coming here for?" Asked Victor

"I heard you were looking for the new kid?"  Takeshi said

"Yeah right. Is he 'Liem' back? Where is he now?"  Asked Victor

"Mampus you this time will end your life" said Takeshi in his heart with a smile of his own smile.

"Hey why are you guys silent" Said Victor

"They have come and are in the Commander's Guild" said Takeshi

Get up Victor and pat Takeshi on the shoulder

"Thank you, young man," said Victor, who immediately rushed to the Guild room

"Hey Victor, where are you going" Asked Milka, who was left by Victor and then walked after Victor as well as Santos and Juan.

Takeshi seemed to be smiling because he had heard the gossip that Victor wanted to beat Liem even though the rumors were wrong.

"Hahaha, you guys are new, this time the Goddess of Fortuna has left your side" said Takeshi arrogantly because he still had a grudge against Liem for his treatment of Liem at that time.

It was seen that Takeshi immediately followed Victor into the Guild room.

 …

When Takeshi walked into the door of the guild room, he was really shocked on his face, Takeshi saw what he had seen before his eyes.

Takeshi saw Victor kneeling in front of Liem as well as all the people in the Guild were shocked to see what was in front of his eyes at this moment.

"What happened?" Takeshi said quietly

"Liem, thank you because the object you gave to the Tesla chairman was very useful for the continuity of the military at this Military Academy," said Victor.

"I also thank you because because that thing has made it easy for me to rise to the peak level of Demon Grandmaster Spiritual Strength even though I have been practicing and looking for potion ingredients but there is no increase in my level" said Victor to Liem while kneeling.

"Representing the entire military, I thank you for being very instrumental in making the military stronger," said Victor

Everyone was shocked to hear the explanation that came out of Victor's mouth.

People gossip

"Is it true that Liem can make Alchemy Potions also really a talented person?" Said someone who was gossiping

"Liem has contributed to this military" said someone who is gossiping

"Very talented person" said someone who is gossiping

Liem smiled and touched Victor's shoulder

"Get up, Victor" said Liem

"But" said Victor

"Never mind, aren't we friends and I'm currently a resident of Zeon? I should have contributed to Zeon" Liem said.

Victor looked at Liem and Liem smiled and Victor smiled too and got up from his knees position.

"You really are great Liem" said Milka with a smile

"It is not wrong that the Chairman chose you" said Santos, patting Liem on the shoulder

"Liem you are the greatest" Said Juan, giving his thumbs up to Liem

"You all can just keep praising me" said Liem smiling

And there was a sound of laughter from within the Guild.

 …

In the front yard of the Guild were Class 2 and Class 3 having a barbecue

They all feasted on Liem's ​​achievements in contributing to making Spiritual Strength-enhancing Potions for Low Levels.

Which will make the Guild even busier from the arrival of the new Class 1 boys.

Automatic eating will make the Military Academy become a lot of Soldiers to guard Zeon and about Liem's ​​genius has begun to be talked about a lot by people in the Military Academy and some Zeon residents in the City.

"Hai Liem, come on, drink a lot because today is a party for you." Said someone who embraced Liem with a large glass in one hand.

Liem just smiled and Khan said

"It is fortunate that we and the people who are in the 1st grade at this time can easily and quickly rise to the Spiritual Level of Black Gold and Demon Bronze," Khan said.

"For that, let's toast to Liem, to the Military Academy and to Zeon" said Roberto, raising a glass followed by everyone.

"Danke" said everyone

Not long after, Victor was seen inviting Liem, Andy, Khan and Roberto to talk at the table and Milka, Santos and Juan were also at the table.

"Liem tomorrow is the welcoming ceremony for the 1st graders who made it to 2nd grade. In other words, the Guild will be even more crowded so I will hold an expedition together, what do you think" said Victor.

"Yes, that's right. Expedition to the Old City in the Forest, Let you explain Milka," said Victor, who turned to Milka to explain.

"So this way we have received information that there is a City City in the Forest before me, Santos and Juan have tried to check there directly" Said Milka back on.

"It turns out that it is true that there is an Old City, a kind of ancient ruins, but you haven't had the chance to find out more about whether there are residents in the Old City," said Milka.

"That's right Liem, I myself have checked it directly with Santos and Milka there. We wanted to take Victor there." Said Juan Cut off Milka's words and continued.

"However, it was unexpected that today's incident was about the potion that you concocted, which even made Victor frustrated by the difficulty of getting to the next level for a while," said Juan, who immediately glanced at Santos.

"So because of this happy incident and also for the sake of welcoming new children who are in the second grade in a crowd, Victor intends to provide learning and knowledge about hunting missions by conducting an expedition into the Old City" said Santos to Liem.

"What do you think if you agree and are interested" Asked Victor to Liem

Liem seemed to be looking at his friends Roberto, Andy and Khan turned their faces to them to speak up.

It seemed that the three of them smiled

"Just agree with Liem," said Andy seducing Liem

"It is true that Liem will become a history of thousands of Grade 1 students who rush up to grade 2, namely a higher level" said Khan seducing Liem.

"We agree with Khan's words. Come on Liem. We will do it because we will be remembered for this historic day," Roberto said seducing Liem.

Liem was seen looking at all the people at the table and the people who were partying then smiled and said

"Come on let's do it" said Liem

It seemed that everyone was happy namely Victor, Milka, Santos, Juan, Roberto, Andy and Khan.

"Good because everyone has agreed we will leave tomorrow after the bonding ceremony for the students. I will ask permission directly from the Tesla chairman about this," said Victor.

 …

The next day, the Tesla chairman appeared on the stage in front of the 1st grade students who made it to the 2nd grade with a total of 86,886 students, both old students and newcomers.

"Congratulations to everyone for the promotion of all of you, so I say and for testing in learning to hunt missions, I will hand over the responsibility directly to the Commander of the Military Units, namely Victor," said Chairman Tesla who had invited Victor to come on the stage to speak.

"Congratulations to all students or soldiers at the Zeon Military Academy who have successfully moved up to grade 2 and can carry out missions for the safety and comfort of the North Continent, namely Zeon," said Victor.

"So I, as the person in charge of this hunting mission learning event, will let you form a team with each other and for those who don't have a team, you can join other teams," said Victor.

"So with this I officially open the hunt for the expedition. In the ruins of the Old City, let's go" said Victor, looking very dignified.

Cheers to all of Zeon's New Disciples / Soldiers.
