Parallel Memory

347 Back To OutCast Town



Zero reached Outcast town and he thanked the Explorers for their help.

The OutCast town has changed from the last time he was there. The number of shops has increased, and it is more crowded than before.

Zero assumed that it must be because of the Explorers that were sent to this area for surveillance and protection that the atmosphere had changed for the better. However, this place was still filled with many criminals and Zero also knew that some of the Dark Guild branches also operated from there.

Anyway, Zero did not think much about that as he had other things that needed to be addressed as soon as possible.

Nevertheless, he had to do a very important thing before that. Eat! Not dried meat or anything but something with spices and vegetables. He was sick of eating all those dried meats that he had stored in his storage ring.

As for the cooking, both his and Lilith’s cooking skill was nothing that they were proud of. When they were in safe areas, they would occasionally prepare good meals, but they were always simple dishes and he missed his mother’s cooking a great deal.

He quickly found himself in a fancy-looking restaurant before ordering a bunch of items from the menu.

He quickly gulped down the mountain of food that was brought in front of him. He didn’t care what others thought about him gulping down the food as he was too tired of eating only meat.

Only after finishing the mountain of food was he sated. He felt like he had eaten the most delicious food there was. He happily paid the very high bill but he didn’t think much about it as he felt it was worth it.

He then quickly went to one of the Inns and got into his room. He quickly lay down on the soft bed that he had missed for years.

Now that he was alone and had eaten, it was time to investigate what was happening to his world in his absence.

He had an overall idea of the big events that had been taking place. Additionally, with his memory of the novel, he could kind of guess what was happening and what would happen.

However, he still needed to know many other things and also the details of those events. And the biggest place to get those kinds of news was TwitFlick. Most people use TwitFlick, which is the most popular social media platform.

Here, people can get access to all kinds of things and news. People would upload everything that was happening, especially unusual events. It was perfect to get every kind of news.

Zero flipped through his social media account where he saw lots of different things. News about the situation with the devils and other species, Gates, monsters and most importantly Dark Guild running rampage across the Human Domain could be found easily.

He was especially curious about Dark Guild making trouble for Tech Genesis. He was worried about the people working there and also that Dark Guild might target his parents and their guild if they figure out the relationship between Tech Genesis and Shadow Genesis.

For now, there was nothing that had happened to his parents or their guild. But Zero was worried as the Dark Guild had many spies across the Human Domain, so obtaining information became easier.

According to what the Dark Guild did, Zero was sure that they might target his parents’ guild, in order to get what they wanted from Tech Genesis.

“Looks like I need to infiltrate the Dark Guild.”

Zero thought that was what he needed to do. After going through all the various events across the world and from what he knows from the novel, he knew that the Dark Guild would be one of the organizations that would start problems for humans.

“This would be enough, right?”

Zero asked himself when looking at his status. He has grown a lot compared to when he first decided to go to the Tower Of Obelisk.

He gained lots of things inside the Tower Of Obelisk, of which the Ancient Dragon’s Heart was the most precious and also one of his primary objectives which he achieved. He had accumulated all the power that he could from the Ancient Dragon’s Heart and his mana had increased to A +.

With such a stat for mana, even a Rank-S mage would easily envy him. Not many people have Rank-S stat for mana including Rank-S magicians. Not only does one need to train and rank up but one also needs to consume a lot of mana-imbued herbs to advance their mana level. It was the most difficult stat to rank up among all the other stats.

Not only that, but he also obtained two more skills from the treasures. One was called Insight Perception with which he could see information about other people or monsters. However, it would not work on monsters who are much stronger than Zero himself.

Besides that, there are also skills that can block such skills as well as some that can manipulate their data.

For example, his other skill called Mana manipulation is a Rank-S skill which makes his control of mana much more easier and efficient. Not only that, but he could also change his mana aura to be weaker than it really is.

He could easily manipulate his mana aura to exude that of Rank-B with fire energy even though he uses Ice energy. It was a good skill to fool your enemy and give false information to the opponent.

With this skill and the Ancient Dragon’s Heart that Zero consumed, handling mana was like child’s play. He could use half the normal mana to produce twice the powerful skill and technique. It was all thanks to the increase in his control of mana.

Even the Dark Energy that would rampage in his body would be controlled like any other mana without it resisting. With such control, Zero might be able to become the greatest mage in the world.

Anyway, he had grown a lot stronger. He had become so strong that even infiltrating the Dark Guild’s headquarters wasn’t as dangerous. Even if he was found out, he could escape from the place.

After thinking for a while, he decided that infiltrating the Dark Guild would be a good choice. There was a war between humans and devils. However, he knew that the Dark Guild would do something that would cause a lot more destruction than war.

Moreover, he knew that the war was just in its starting phase and he would not need to interfere at the moment. And he could just do that after handling the Dark Guild.

“Now, how should I do that?”

Zero opened a map of the Human Domain. He marked all the places that had Dark Guild branches and also the Dark Guild headquarters.

He knew that going inside the Dark Guild headquarters was very hard, so he planned to first go to one of the branches before aiming for the headquarters.

And luckily, he was also in one of the places where the Dark Guild branch is located.

Zero smiled as he put the map inside the storage ring. He wanted to know how the Dark Guild leader would feel after he messed with his plans.

Dark Guild messed with his company, so Zero had to pay him back.
