In Nash's room, Lancelot and Mordred were seen sitting in front of Nash. While Merlin stood behind her master while listening to the conversation.

"Infiltrate the Re-Estize Kingdom? But what for?"

"Well, the word infiltrate is incorrect. To be used, I just want you two to register as adventurers there."

" Adventurer? "

"Ah, you might not know but in this world there is a job called Adventurer, to become an official adventurer, that person must register at the Adventurer Guild first, which has branches all over the world."

"Hmm ..."

Lancelot thought for a moment. And at that moment, Mordred, who had just been quiet and listened, said.

"By the way Nash-sama, as you said, that you told us to be adventurers to collect money and information, right?"

"Yup."

"But doesn't Camelot still have a lot of gold stored in the Treasure Room?"

"Well, that is gold from Yggdrasil so it will not be useful in this world, maybe we can sell it and exchange it for money, but if the Yggdrasil gold that we have runs out, then there is no search for us to get it back. Therefore, I don't want risk using it ... "

Nash then looked at Lancelot and Mordred.

'Besides, Yggdrasil's gold can be used to revive dead NPCs, so I want to save as much as possible. If anything happens that is beyond my expectations. '

Mordred who heard Nash's explanation nodded and agreed, well after all, Modred was not someone who used her brain too much.

"I see ... as expected of you, Nash-sama."

"Alright, I will repeat my orders to you, your task is simple, you register in the Adventurer's Guild, do as many Quests as possible and collect money and fame, raise your rank as high as possible, and make connections with the royal family. I want you to have a position quite high in Re-Estize when you're famous, I'm sure it won't take long. Do you understand? "

"Yes, Nash-sama."

"Um."

Lancelot and Mordred nodded simultaneously.

"Oh, yeah I almost forgot to give something to you guys."

Lancelot and Mordred who wanted to get up from their seats were confused when they saw Nash reaching into his pocket. Then, he gave Lancelot and Mordred two rings.

"This ...?"

"It is a ring that can suppress your aura so that people with special sense of sight will not know your true strength "

""" We are very honored, Nash-sama. ""

Lancelot and Mordred then accepted it and wore the ring Nash had given them.

"In that case, you can leave,... Ah! and don't forget to observe and report to me if you find a strong individual, whose strength is far above that of other humans."

They both nodded, then saluted and walked out of the room. After a while, Merlin, who had been silent, said.

"Didn't you tell 'that' to them?"

"They don't need to know for now ..."

'If indeed Demiurge's demon is an NPC created by a Player, then I am sure that there are other creatures whose strength is at the same level or stronger than him. In addition, his movements in Abellion Hills are very suspicious. It seems that if he hadn't met with Agravain yesterday, maybe he would have continued to kidnap the Demi-Human races. I can guess that he must have been very surprised when he met Agravain who hid his power using the item I gave. '

'I cannot guess what plans he will do again, but I doubt he will yield after losing to Agravain, so this Abellion Hills conquest mission will not be as smooth as I had expected. '

'Do I have to send one of the Knights of Round Table to help Agravain? I have a bad feeling about this demon named Demiurge ... '

Merlin, who saw Nash thinking hard, said.

"What's the matter, Nash-sama? Is there something troubling your mind?"

"No, nothing, let's go... to Flying City"

After that, Nash and Merlin teleported and would immediately head south.

***

The night before.

Esmeralda in her room was sitting at the table reading the floor guardians daily report.

Her golden hair was loose and she only wore loose pajamas which made her look very sensual, and the frameless glasses hanging on her face made its better.

* Knock. *

"Come in."

After that, entered a woman dressed as a servant. She is an NPC made by Nash, Suzu.

"Ah, if I'm not mistaken, aren't you ..."

"Suzu, Nash-sama's servant."

"Ah, Suzu, I'm sorry."

Esmeralda then took off her glasses and placed them on the table.

"Do you have business with me, or Nash sent you here?"

"That's right, Esmeralda-sama. Nash-sama is currently meeting Morgana to borrow one of the World items in the Treasure Room."

"Hmm? What world item did he borrow from the treasure room?"

"I don't know, but it's in the form of a Golden Book."

"Avesta? What does he want to do with it?"

Esmeralda did not understand why Nash chose Non-combat World Item like Avesta to be taken to Flying City. But, if the decision was made by Nash himself, Esmeralda doesn't doubt it.

"Then, I'm not sure Nash came here just to send you for permission ..."

"Um, Nash-sama also left this to you."

Suzu then handed over several pieces of paper on top of which there was a roll of World Map tied using a red string

"Huh, why did he give me the world map? Didn't he need it on his way there?"

"Yes, he needs it, but what you are holding right now is a copy of the map."

"Oh, that's right, that 'thing' can be used for something like this. Then, what is this pile of paper?"

"These are the data about the Roble Holy Kingdom that Nash-sama has collected and summarized, everything is here."

"Huh? But why did he leave it to me."

Suzu shook her head when she heard Esmeralda's question. Then she said.

"However, he left me a message, he said, 'If you are tired of being in Camelot while I am going to Eryuentiu and want to see the outside world, I advise you to go to the Roble Holy Kingdom and make a visit there to see what kind of country it is straight away.' So he said."

Hear the message conveyed by Suzu. Esmeralda laughed sweetly.

"Hahaha, does he think I have no business here at all? But ... if it's Nash, then I doubt that his actions have no ulterior motives."

Suzu only nodded in her heart from Esmeralda's words, because that was true.

"In that case, thank you for for telling me, Suzu."

"No, that is my duty."

"By the way, are you the one who will accompany Nash to the place called Eryuentiu?"

Suzu shook her head.

"No, Nash-sama assigned me to do something in another place."

"Hmmm? Then will he travel alone there?"

"No, Nash-sama will be accompanied by Ms. Merlin on his journey."

"Huh? Merlin?"

Suzu nodded when she heard the confused Esmeralda.

'Why would he bring Merlin if it was just a simple information search? '

After trying to think for a while, Esmeralda still did not understand why Nash chose Merlin.

"Then, if you'll excuse me, Esmeralda-sama."

"Um."

After that, Suzu left and Esmeralda began to open documents containing the Roble Hoky Kingdom, which might become Camelot's neighboring country in the future.

***

After all the necessary matters were finished, Nash and Merlin then departed south riding a Griffin that was summoned by Merlin.

The reason Nash took Merlin on his trip this time was actually simple, the first and most important, because Merlin was a Magic Caster who had mastered many Tier Magic, and one of them was a magic that was said to be the pinnacle of Teleportation magic, [Gate].

By inviting Merlin, Nash will easily return to Camelot or areas that Merlin has visited using her Gate. It was very comfortable magic, and on Camelot only Morgana, Esmeralda and Merlin could use it.

Morgana was the area guardian of the Camelot Treasure Room, so it was impossible to take him away. Especially Esmeralda, she was a queen and her presence in Camelot was badly needed, while this trip to Flying City would no doubt take a long time.

And the only option left is Merlin, besides that somehow Nash is more comfortable chatting with Merlin than other NPCs (not including Suzu), maybe that's because he was also very close to Merlin's creator, FireisHot.

On the first night, Nash and Merlin rested on the edge of the forest to eat and they set up a bonfire.

"Nash-sama, shouldn't we speed up our journey?"

"Take it easy, after all this is a relaxing trip, no need to rush, and also ... aren't you already hungry?"

Even though Nash said that, what he had in mind was.

'How can I pass an adventure like this? Is not this is everyone's dream to adventure in the world of Fantasy? How could I want to pass an opportunity like this! "

Well, even though Nash's goal in Flying City was to find the whereabouts of players from Yggdrasil, he also actually wanted to feel the adventure like the protagonists in the anime or the characters in the game. Because even though the feeling in Yggdrasil is close to real, it is still a virtual reality, different from this world.

Nash was later seen cooking warm soup in his pan. The atmosphere was quiet and only the sound of crickets were heard. After a few moments, Merlin hesitantly asked.

"Um... Nash-sama, did Fire-sama say something before she left Camelot?"

"Hmm ... why are you suddenly asking that?"

"No, it's just that ... lately there are things that bother me ... I wonder, if Fire-sama doesn't care about me anymore? What ... doesn't she care about Morgana and the others too?"

Nash, who had poured the soup into a bowl, then handed it over to Merlin, and took his own.

"What are you talking about? How could Fire-san not care for you ..."

Nash thought maybe the NPCs had considered their Creators like their own parents. Naturally, they will feel lost when their 'parents' are not by their side.

"Then why did she leave us? Leave you and Esmeralda-sama? Leave Camelot? Where did she go? Is that more important than Camelot?"

" Yes. "

Nash's words made Merlin widen her eyes before returning to bow. However, Nash continued.

"But that doesn't mean she doesn't care about you and Camelot. Fire-san, before she left ... she left you with me ... at that moment I could see the sadness in her eyes, it's clear that she was very sad to leave you all."

The atmosphere was quiet, before Nash said again.

"Well than that, what if I tell my adventure with Fire-san in Yggdrasil?"

Merlin's eyes brightened when Nash said that. Nash who saw that also smiled.

'Well, at least I can get rid of something that is troubling Merlin's mind, because I don't want to, because of her misunderstanding she will instead betray Camelot. 'Thought Nash.

" Is it true!!?? "

"Of course ... let's see, well this is actually a pretty funny story ..."

After that, they continued chatting until their food was finished. Both Nash and Merlin both don't need actual sleep.

That's because their race is not fully human. Nash was a Phantom in human form, while Merlin was Half-Succubus.

Although said to be Succubus, Merlin actually does not need Sex or Sperm from men to survive like Succubus in general, her Succubus aspect only gives it a huge reserve and good magic affinity.

Their journey then continues and only rests at mealtime.

Their journey was quite fast, especially because Griffin's speed could not be underestimated.

After they traveled for 3 days through the southern mountain route, they finally arrived at the edge of the Great Desert.

The Southern Mountain route was chosen by Nash because it was the safest route and far from the center of Slane Theocrachy.

After that, Griffin again flew towards the middle of the Great Desert, and after a while, a small dot floating in the air finally visible from a distance.

* Fwuossh *

Nash narrowed his eyes as he saw that, with the help of Merlin's visual magic, Nash was able to see from a considerable distance, and at that moment he could clearly see the existence of an Island that floated in the air as if unaffected by Gravitational forces.

'No doubt, the flying Island was Eryuentiu. I thought the name of flying was only a figure of speech, but it turned out that the island was truly in accordance with its name. What kind of magic can make the island fly like that? '

And there was a very strong presence on the island, whose aura Merlin could see from a distance.

"Nash-sama, it seems like this Eryuentiu is inhabited by creatures that are considered to be very powerful by this world standard."

"Um ... I can also feel his presence from here, it seems like we can't just go recklessly in there."

As Griffin, ridden by Nash and Merlin, drew closer to the floating island, there was a figure floating in the air, the presence of that figure as if to tell them that they should not approach any further.

The figure wearing silver armor that was sparkling silver was very similar to Dragon scale. The armor's dragon motif made it look like a humanoid dragon standing upright.

This armor seems to possess some sort of small sword-like insignia embedded in the middle of its chest. In addition, a helmet with long hair-like fabric on top of it as well as a layer of fur around the two arms. The armor has a pauldron depicting a dragon on both shoulder sides with two horns that protrude from it.

The figure stood grabbed surrounded by dozens of floating weapons that kept spinning around him.

Seeing the presence of the figure, Nash smiled from under his hood and said.

"Looks like we were given a rousing welcome, Merlin."
