Strange Worlds-Chapter 206: Time Skip (2)

A year had passed ever since their early graduation.

Evan and the others were 12 years old while Aya was 11 years old. Now that a year had passed, they also had finished their sealing class and could officially take harder missions.

Today was the day for them to take a mission as Aya heard from the puppet Silas yesterday, so she wouldn’t be able to spend her time in that forest.

She felt a bit of pity, though.

Aya could feel that her strength was improving faster when she was in that forest rather than when she was in Wansu City. This made her somewhat want to abandon this identity as Aya White.

Speaking of missions...

Aya went out to the field and saw the boys were arguing as usual.

"This time I’ll be faster than Josh!" Leon said through gritted teeth.

"Don’t worry, we won’t be lagging behind this time." Dean also nodded and looked at Yun with a pleading expression.

The last time they lost against Josh, it was because Yun’s physical strength couldn’t keep up when they were running to submit the mission. That kind of competition was honestly a bit embarrassing, but these children had quarrels with each other.

And their missions were all only simple missions around Wansu City because they were not allowed to go out of Wansu City.

These missions were really boring.

If Aya had to say, she had no interest to do it but still helped a bit before going back.

"This time, the mission will be different." Silas’s voice came from behind.

Aya turned around and blinked her eyes.

After missing for more than half a year, this was the first time that the real Silas appeared in front of her. And Aya could faintly sense that Silas seemed to have grown much stronger in the past half a year.

And this sense of pressure...

Rank 7?

Aya didn’t hear of any commotion of anyone breaking through to rank 7 in the past half a year, so Silas should be making his breakthrough in Central Magic City. After all, Aya’s crystal eyes still have some limitations.

She couldn’t see so far away.

The corner of her lips curled up.

He truly deserved to be the renowned genius in this era. If it was not because of the conflicts that were written in the history books, Aya was sure that Silas would definitely reach the very peak.

Unfortunately, fate was not kind to him.

Moreover, Aya couldn’t sense the curse marks on Silas anymore. He should have figured out how to use that thing to the fullest. In the forest, Aya could still sense it, but she never talked to Silas about it because she felt that it was really unnecessary.

This is good~.

"How different is the mission?" Leon’s attention was attracted. "Would it be more difficult?"

"Fourth Head requested for us to take the rank C mission," Silas said slowly.

Rank C?

Hearing this, they were a bit surprised.

Even if they have improved in the past year, but if they have to compare with several rank 3 magic beasts, they might not necessarily win.

"Are you sure about this?" Yun was worried.

"Don’t worry, we’re strong!" Dean said confidently.

Leon also nodded.

"If we took a rank C mission, would the other team also take a similar rank mission?" Evan was more concerned about another matter.

When the others heard this, they turned to look at Silas. ƒreewebɳovel.com

Silas nodded helplessly. "Josh requested for a competition since the result of the D rank missions’ competition is not very ideal."

Aya: "..."

If she was not wrong, their result was almost tied.

Sometimes, they would win but at other times, it was Josh who won.

In this way, their scores were still more or less the same.

She didn’t pay attention to this.

"Then, let’s take it!" Leon said energetically.

Evan looked at Leon speechlessly. "Don’t you need to read the content of the mission first?"

"Oh, then read it."

The others: "..."

Silas chuckled and silently showed the mission list to them. "It’s not a killing mission but a mission to deliver resources. The way to this place is a bit dangerous and it’s quite far. There might be rank 3 magic warriors attacking or rank 3 magic beasts on the way."

Magic warriors?

Aya’s eyes narrowed.

So far, their missions were only related to herbs or magic beasts. They have never met with other magic warriors during their missions and there was no need to worry too much about it. But after C rank, the mission would no longer be so kind and instead gave them even more risk than before.

Because their competitions were not only those magic beasts but also other magic warriors.

Looking at this, Evan also frowned.

He seemed to realize that their battles would not be so simple. Lower ranked magic beasts only fought based on instinct, which was still relatively easy for them to deal with.

But if they were to fight against other magic warriors, who could guarantee that it would remain the same?

Because these magic warriors would be able to fight not only based on their instinct but also used various tactics.

At that time, the difficulties of the battle will definitely increase a few times.

"It’s fine! We’re not weak!" Leon said excitedly.

In any case, they were used to spar against each other. Even if Leon, Evan, and Dean were beaten up so miserably by Aya, but they wouldn’t give up so easily. They would show that they could also beat up other magic warriors out there.

They were definitely not as strong as Aya!

If Aya were to know what they were thinking, she would definitely bring them in for a more vigorous training.

Anyway, she didn’t mind beating them all up a few more times.

"Alright, I’ll make the report. You all should make the preparation."

"Yes~!"

With that, they all ran back to their respective home to get their belongings and equipment. Even if they carried their basic equipment, a long distance mission would require them to prepare more.
