The Max Level Hero Has Returned!

Chapter 401

Chapter 401

“What’s... the matter?” Aeria asked anxiously when she saw Davey suddenly looking around with a solemn expression on his face.

However, the gaze that looked at Davey suddenly disappeared as if it had never been there from the very beginning.

In this world, Goddess Freyja did not make a deal with Davey. Considering the fact that she did not throw a request at Davey like the other times when the dimensional key was activated, he thought that there was nothing that he needed to do this time. However, that did not seem to be the case.

After feeling the gaze disappear, Davey just silently pulled Aeria’s lap near him and laid his head down on them.

“Kyaaaack!?” Aeria shouted, her face turning red as she quickly avoided Davey’s gaze.

“Your wish came true.”

“Yes... It seems so. It really is like a dream. Even though this will only be a single night’s dream, I think I will never be happier.” Aeria’s voice sounded weak as she murmured quietly.

It was proof that the penalty was going to come soon. Perhaps, once she woke up again after a good night’s sleep, she would have already lost a lot of her memories about Davey. Or maybe she would have completely forgotten about him.

Davey, who silently laid his head on her lap, realized that her gaze was directed at him. Then, as if possessed, she gently lowered her head and kissed him. It was very fleeting. It seemed like she had been unaware of what she had done, as if she had been intoxicated by the moonlight shining upon them.

Davey was shocked into a daze by the sudden kiss.

“...”

Aeria, who seemed to have come back to her senses, immediately raised her flushed face and covered her mouth. There was a helpless expression on her face. With Davey sitting up, she immediately jumped and bowed to him to apologize. “I’m, I’m sorry!”

Then, she desperately tried to explain. However, Davey’s gaze was already looking at the curtain that was blocking half of the city. He was certain that something had changed.

“I’m... I did it unconsciously and...” Aeria said as her head drooped once again.

This time, it was not because she was forced to do it. It was natural, so natural that anyone that saw her would feel nice looking at her like that.

“...”

Just like that, Aeria fell asleep. Well, it was only natural. After all, she had been crying non-stop earlier and had done quite a lot of tiring things.

As Davey watched Aeria sleep quietly and deeply, he had no choice but to admit that just as he had feelings for Perserque, there was also, to some extent, something strange for Aeria.

Davey slowly stood up and carried the sleeping Aeria. Then, he installed alarm posts in all four directions before pulling out some soft leaves from within his Pocket Plane. Each leaf was half the size of an adult human and was piled up to create a bedding.

After completing the fluffy bed, he carefully placed Aeria down and covered her with a blanket. Then, he took out a card from his card album.

Swooosh...

At the same time, the three lunatics appeared.

“Protect Aeria. Everything should be alright. However, if I come back and something is wrong with her, then I will make sure to crush you all with my own hands.”

The clown with the ax shook his pants and danced playfully as he looked at Aeria. Then, the clown with the bastard sword clacked his teeth and said, “Make. Love.” Geett the latest novels at novelhall.com

“If you keep on joking around with that trap of yours, then I will kill you.”

There were no signs of their existence. Of course, that was only natural. If the curtain was there, then Davey would have no knowledge of something of that size waiting for him on the other side. Besides, it was an extremely huge being. There was no way that Davey would not know if it was under normal circumstances.

Black Dragon-like existences would grow from ten meters up to thirty meters in length and would mainly consume meat. Aside from their lethal black demonic energy breath, they also use their sturdy and invincible body to attack.

Their scales were known to be very durable and resistant to attacks made with blades. Even their wings were notorious for rendering each and every method available to those on land useless and leaving their enemies furious for not being able to do anything to them. Their biting force was as destructive as the biting force of crocodile-type monsters. As for their mana? Well, they had an abundance of it, which made them a rare species classified as a high-ranking monster.

Normally, such a monster would have tucked its tail and left Davey alone. This was because Davey’s mana was so vast that even a 9th Circle mage would find it hard to breathe in front of him.

The synchronization of the body and soul was usually something impossible. However, thanks to the [Jewel]’s special power, he was able to sync the power that he obtained in the Hall with his body, albeit only for a short period of time. That jewel was sent to him through Al, the resurrected and current World Tree, by Goddess Freyja. It was something that the goddess had created by condensing her own power.

But... What in the world was this curtain? Why did it bring forth ridiculous changes in his body the moment he entered it?

Perhaps, everything that was happening to him was because of the irregularity of this place? After all, this world should not exist. Since that was the case, anything that happened here could never be explained with common sense. Everything was possible here.

Davey was completely lost in his thoughts, ignoring the Black Dragon-like existence that was slowly rearing its head to attack him.

‘Wait. If I can do anything I want in this world, then...’

Perhaps he would be able to find a way to let Aeria remember. Davey’s mouth grew into a wide smile at the thought, his head turning to look at the Black Dragon-like existence that had opened its gigantic maw to devour him in one go.

Boom!

A loud boom rang in the area, and the mouth that had already enclosed upon him slipped open, allowing him to walk out. At the same time, Red Ribbon appeared. The sword danced in the air before settling in Davey’s hands.

Thump...

Davey saw a brooch falling off of the Black Dragon-like existence’s horn. It seemed to have been cut off by Red Ribbon’s sharpness. The brooch carried the demon’s pattern, the insignia that symbolized a very familiar and dear girl, Dark Lord Perserque.

This world’s Perserque was one of the greatest contributors to the demon’s easy domination of this world. She was the same girl from the world that Davey lived in. However, because the process was different, the result was also different. In this world, she was nothing but an unlucky girl.

Swoosh...

After Davey had walked out of its mouth and left without any hesitation, the scales on the dragon-like existence’s body began to shift. When the distance between them had grown large, the dragon-like existence’s limbs, as well as its entire disproportionate body, were cut to pieces.

Thud, thud, thud... thud, thud, thud...

“An intruder!”

“A human? How can a human be here...?”

“What the hell? He’s just one human! Move!”

Whatever it was, there was one thing that mattered. The difficulty of this world might have reached the extreme. However, the Abyss did not interfere here. This meant that it was a complete downgrade from the ultra nightmare difficulty level that Davey had cleared before.

And for someone like him, who had completed the synchronization, the only outcome would be a disaster. A complete and utter disaster.

In fact, Davey was not really concerned about these guys. He looked up at the sky in silence, his gaze completely nonchalant when looking at the Black Dragon-like beings, the Black Wyverns, and the demons that were flying above him. Then, he released all of the mana in his body, an action that created a huge explosion.

Boom!!!

At the same time, the mana-sensitive Black Wyverns began to fall on the ground one after the other, their mouths foaming as they lost consciousness.

Davey’s only concern was to find the owner of that strange and suspicious gaze.
