The Legendary Moonlight Scluptor

Mysterious abyss

If you think that monsters are the only dangerous thing on the Versailles Continent, then you will be completely wrong. On the contrary, the very dangerous thing was the players themselves. Because humans are the most greedy creatures. Man is able to kill his own brother for the sake of wealth, power, inheritance and other things.

In essence, humans are the most dangerous creatures.

Weed smiled slightly opening the conversation, "I am indeed a Sculptor. But, I actually have a unique technique."

"What kind of technique is that?"

"Just a howl. When the monsters heard his voice, they fled."

"Ahhh so." ******* Hammer sounds weak and uninterested.

Axe nudged his stomach, "Really?"

"Should I show you?"

"Maybe, we all want to know." Axe chuckled with his partner, clearly underestimating whatever Weed was going to do in the future.

Weed ignored all kinds of expressions from them. He focused on gathering mana with all his strength to bring out the skill, Lion's Roar.

"Rooooooaaaaaaaar!"

A moment before Weed used his roar, Mapan had tightly closed both ears with his hands, but the four were not ready to stagger in shock.

"Damn it!"

"What kind of a rite is this?!"

Axe calmed Hammer and Spade's emotions with just a sharp glance. They finally looked back at Weed with a forced big smile.

"What an incredible roar. I want to know one thing. Did this roar have any effect on getting the monsters away?" Lawn Mayer immediately mastered the situation that had stiffened a moment ago.

Skill Lion's Roar!

Weed had yet to form a team with Axe and co, so after taking out the skill just now, his leadership stat had not increased, and the additional effects had no effect. The only thing they experienced was a scream that hurt the ears.

"Yes, this is what made the monsters hesitate after hearing this voice. Well, that's when we escaped as far away as possible."

The four of them simultaneously laughed at Weed's ridiculous explanation.

'Truly not important.'

'I think these fools are the perfect bait?'

'We must succeed in bringing them to that place.'

'But we just need a sat-'

'What's the problem? We just need to finish off the other one with our own hands. Since he was a Merchant, it would definitely drop many precious items. We'll be so lucky!'

'Good, let's do the first plan.'

The four of them quickly reached a conclusion, without even speaking, but simply communicating through their respective gazes.

Axe showed a firm facial expression to Weed and Mapan. He immediately explained his intent and purpose, "So far, that trick might have managed to get you through safely, but the Baruk Mountains are a truly dangerous place. Call it our meeting is destined. So, from now on the four of us will be your bodyguards. This is all because we travel the same route. We offer this wish with good intentions, there is no reason for you to refuse okay! Haha."

"Haha!" Mapan laughed out loud, "If that's what you want, then we'll be very grateful." After all, he was very innocent as a weak Merchant, according to him it was not a bad idea to be accompanied by a group of 4 strong-looking players.

"Please cooperate." Weed realized that there was something suspicious about the glint of their eyes. But now he decides to follow their game to find out how far this madness will go. So Weed also nodded in agreement to the guarding offer from them without refuting.

Weed had noticed the dangerous situation was lurking, but what the four people saw was his frail-looking self, unable to do anything but comply with this invitation.

The essence of fun when traveling is to find a new place and meet fellow comrades in arms. Of course reliable partners to protect each other, from there will create closeness through the same hunt. This was the fun created while playing in Royal Road.

Sometimes, Weed also enjoyed hunting with others. But, because he plays too often, he cannot always be together with his partner. For him, however, being together was a good thing.

However, this does not include the four strangers around him now.

The four of them were tasked with fighting monsters around the wagon. Of course they did not forget the main task of overseeing all the actions taken by Weed and Mapan.

'There are no suspicious things from these two people.'

'Actually, the man was busy sculpting the statue.'

'Looks like he's really a Sculptor.'

The four people were truly relieved to know this reality. However, it is still cautious since they caused such a big problem a few months ago, so do not commit the same recklessness.

As Weed took out one raw diamond, the Quartet's Dwicighi eyes could not help but look away at the glittering object. Mapan who was aware of that gaze should try hard to hold back the pride.

Spade who was always curious of course immediately voiced his heart involuntarily, "Huh? Isn't that a diamond?"

Mapan immediately replied with a small smile. "Rubber, Weed is currently sculpting diamonds."

"Oh, diamond sculpting-huh?" Spade's mouth gaped wide as he stared in disbelief at the diamond in Weed's hand.

"Rice." When looking at them all Mapan seemed to see himself in the past who was also equally shocked.

"The diamond cut yes, it's awesome!" Hammer's eyes were filled with greed. Not only Hammer, but including his three other friends, when it comes to their wealth of greed is unmatched.

'Jackpots!'

'I hope that precious thing will become a drop item later.'

Weed did look focused on his sculpture, but not on his brain still venturing to and fro. He was sure, if the four of them had intended to rob, then after seeing the diamonds should have already attacked Weed's team. But the reality is not as expected. 'They didn't even attack after seeing the jewels? Hoh! They want something else from us. About what?'

Of course for those four people, they had managed to trap the prey, so they were relaxed. What they do not know is the fact that the deceivers are being deceived. And the only person who pretends to be deceived.

"Let's take a lunch break first. You must be exhausted, we'll prepare the food." Axe immediately led his friends to make some food.

"Haha, this-"

"Just relax, cooking is just a trivial thing for us, not a hassle at all." Lawn Mayer makes Mapan sit back by force.

"That thing, wait a minute" His index finger pointed towards Weed while showing a face of despair. Mapan could do nothing but accept all this goodness. Though he wanted to say if Weed's cooking was of extra quality, but seeing the seriousness of these four people, he finally could not refuse their help anymore.

During the trip, the four people looked very friendly and pampered Weed and Mapan. They not only served food but were also sometimes willing to give Weed and Mapan drop loot items and equipment.

"It's not much, but I hope you'll take it."

"I-it's."

"Because we walk the same path, we're friends, right? It's certainly fair to share with fellow friends." Lawn Mayer nudged Hammer's stomach.

"Please accept it." Hammer tried to smile as gently as possible.

Mapan looked at Weed, his friend just shrugged both shoulders looking unconcerned, he even looked relaxed when receiving gifts from them. Mapan finally calmed down and smiled happily to take his share. Before long the four people managed to take Mapan's heart with some free gifts.

"Based on shameless people." Hammer muttered little looking at Mapan and Spade's interaction from a distance. He was so sick of watching Mapan's wide smile look greedy. He wants to kill him if he's not stopped by Axe's hand checks.

"It's not time yet, Buddy."

Hammer exhales violently choosing to give in.

Without them noticing, Weed who was sitting quietly in the corner observed their behavior. 'Giving sincerely without expecting such a reward does not exist in the human dictionary. If they don't plan on robbing us, then what's the reason?'

Normal people will feel grateful when others give gifts, or to people who are good to them.

But for Weed, all he felt was suspicion. This situation was clearly not appropriate for sharing drop items and equipment. Even more strange because the four people were trying too hard to show the good side. Despite thinking so, Weed did not show the slightest emotion he felt. Since Mapan looked so trusting of the four of them, Weed could hide the fact that he really did not believe them.

One day had passed since Dwichigi Quared joined Weed.

Now they were faced with a terrible abyss. The gorge was only 20 meters wide, but it was very deep with a thick fog covering the bottom of the abyss. Because there is a bridge, crossing the gorge is not difficult.

Mapan smiled happily pointing at the bridge that slightly turned to the right to reach it, "That's the bridge! It looks very sturdy, we can cross this bridge together."

Axe suddenly stopped their steps by standing in front of the wagon driven by Mapan as if standing on the podium, "Gentlemen, what is our reason for adventuring?"

Mapan frowned deeply, "What?"

"I think enjoying this amazing natural beauty is the meaning of the real adventure. Our tired minds will be fresh treated to nature that cools the eyes, right?"

"Hm."

"Look over here." He pointed to the road behind the bushes that were seen to be rarely passed, "There seems to be a path leading downwards. Isn't passing this path more interesting for an adventurer? What do you think?"

After hearing Axe's words, Mapan's expression changed drastically, he blatantly showed his dislike for Axe's crazy idea.

On the Versailles Continent do not know the name of a road the only one that can be passed. Everyone is free to walk through dense forests, climb mountains, or cross oceans as long as they can. There is no need to always walk the main road.

However, Axe's words are too contrary to logic. Why bother to enter the abyss that will somehow be how dangerous when there is the safest and fastest road in front of the eyes.

Mapan who was initially insensitive to the situation finally began to realize that something was wrong with these four people. "Eiy, we can also enjoy the view from the top of the bridge, wouldn't staring at the depths of the abyss from a height be a worthwhile experience as well?"

Mapan chuckled, trying to resist the crazy idea of his new friend. After all, he was the most realistic-minded Mercant, the safest path was the best choice. So, it is better to reject that nonsensical advice.

Axe twisted his sword in the air once, "So?"

Weed looked around, as Axe gave the mark, Hammer, Lawn Mayer, and Spade began to put their hands on the sword hilt. Indirectly Weed and Mapan had been surrounded.

In fact, there was no reason for them to be tense when facing a Merchant and a Scluptor. But, it never hurts to be on standby if unwanted things happen.

"Why not? Sounds fun, doesn't it, Mapan?" Weed interrupted immediately before Mapan protested resolutely.

"uh? I-iya hahaha." Mapan inevitably agreed to this because he believed Weed must have a plan.

"Haha! I know you'll agree. You guys are the ones with the greatest fighting spirit!" Axe's gaze wasn't as sharp as it was. The other three people finally relaxed, they released their hands from the sword hilt along laughing with Axe.

Finally Weed and Mapan went down the ravine led by the Dwichigi Quartet.

The slope of the ravine is very steep. Mapan's face looks grimaced by himself when the wheel of his cart is several times stuck. Without the help of the Dwichigi Quartet, it would be impossible for them to descend to the bottom of the abyss.

Weed sat down leisurely enjoying the comforts of life. He whistled a few times while shaking, making the whistling sound like it was being blown by a gentle breeze.

Regardless there were four people out there fighting desperately for control of the wagon. On the front there are Axe and Hammer pulling the cart, Lawn Mayer and Spade pushing the cart from behind. At first glance what they do looks very commendable and admirable. But after looking at their faces up close, everyone would know the hearts of the four even if they only saw their eyes.

Hammer felt that he could no longer bear to immediately slash Weed and Mapan's neck, "What am I really doing? Uh shit!" His grunts while removing the sweat that flooded his forehead. His mouth instantly closed as he felt a deadly gaze from someone, he was Axe.

"Umm, sorry for the trouble."

"Huh?" Hammer's eyes are wide open.

"Haha!" Axe tried to code Hammer with eyes so as not to do the unwanted thing, "Not to hesitate, Mapan. For us this is nothing."

While in the back row, there were Lawn Mayer and Spade strongholds that looked cool, they even treated the wagon as if they were their own.

"ah! The road must be there!" Axe exclaimed cheerfully pointing at a rough path.

After a while, they were still down the abyss without getting anything useful. It seems that Axe did not know this path correctly because they had been spinning for hours but did not find a way out, sometimes even returning to the same path.

"Isn't the view over there really beautiful? Let's walk that road!" Axe combed the area within the gorge several times. But, so far only his face looks enthusiastic, while his partner is fed up with this round trip.

Behind the difficulties they faced, Weed was the only person who had the greatest luck. He no longer relaxes in the cart while sculpting, now even cool to explore around the road to pick plants.

"Whoaaaa! This is the Red Sen herb." He had just stood up after picking up a plant called Red Sen. Weed shouted in excitement again, "Woahhh! There is the Blue Ceylon herbal plant!"

Weed was running around like a paud child from one place to another to pick up the herbs he called herbs.

However, the Baruk Mountains are rich in herbs. Especially at the bottom of the ravine they were going through, apart from the influence of the air, the land there was very fertile because it had not been touched by human civilization. Weed was of course very excited about gathering herbs that he considered to be treasures.

Dwichigi Quartet's face was very depressed to see his behavior that looked like a fool. Especially Hammer, Axe had enough to make them spin without knowing the direction, they also had to be late by Weed's useless activities, "Weed, what are you really doing?"

"You can't see what I'm doing? Pick up herbs." Weed turned his head for a moment to let out an annoying smile.

Lawn Mayer interrupted immediately before Hammer's emotions exploded, "Looks like you look happy."

"Hmm, I'm so happy. These are rare herbal plants. Isn't this jacpot? You want to follow? It's so much fun!"

Lawn Mayer was struck by lightning when she heard the phrase, "No, I'm not interested." He grimaced softly after Weed turned around, "Damn it!" small mutter.

Spade laughed off more into a languish. "He's very attractive!"

Hammer squeezed the face in frustration, 'I will kill him with my own hands!'

The blood vessels on their foreheads were throbbing in anger.

After a while, Mapan's patience finally reached its limit, "Why do I feel we're lost?"

Axe of course immediately denied with the reason to show Weed more herbs.

Actually, it's not just Mapan who's tired. But, the four of them were already exhausted, finally deciding to open a private message.

- Hey, Axe. Don't tell me you forgot the location?

yep.

-ck! I guessed! The map is in your hand!!!!

- Basic stupid! You mean, is it okay to take out the map in front of them? You forget they're not our partners but bait!

just distract them both for a moment. The man named Weed looked like a fool, so just ignore it. But, focus on Mapan, from the moment he has observed our behavior, it is very disturbing.

- All right I'll divert it. Do it quickly.

Lawn Mayer approached Mapan with a friendly face, "Hai Mapan!"

"Oh, hi too."

"Honestly, I'm actually quite interested in the sculptural world. Would you ask Weed to replace me, would I now be able to observe him carve?"

While talking, Lawn Mayer deliberately covered the direction of Mapan's view towards Axe.

While in front of her, Axe's face was already beaming as he read back the map. Because he had found the location they were going to.

I got the location, guys.

-Thankfully.

well, we've walked the right path, just a little late."

"Now, how about we follow this path?" Axe pointed at the direction they came from with a wide smile.

"All right!" The other three people were immediately excited not to accept any rejection that would be issued by Mapan.

The wagon eventually turned in the opposite direction. After searching in some shrubs, they finally found a huge monument. In the middle of the monument is the entrance to the place they are headed. Dwichigi Quartet giggles together.

Lawn Mayer stared around confusedly, "Huh? Could this be a dungeon?"

"Dwarf tomb?"

"Wow! We're lucky. We have to get in. Anyway, we've come this far, we'll lose if we don't explore."

"Well, Weed! Surely, you'll come with us, right?"

"Of course!" Weed replied cheerfully.

They entered the dungeon simultaneously. Suddenly the status window clang to stop their steps.

You are the first adventurer to enter dungeon instruments, loving dwarves!

Gifts:

Fame :+200

Will get double Drop items and equipment. The first monster killed would drop a high quality item.

"Wow!"

"Great!"

"That's amazing!"

"We were the first to discover this place!"

The four of them shouted in excitement, upon entering the dungeon. Although their levels are higher than average, most of these increases come from PK, not hunting. Hence, this was their first experience of discovering a new dungeon.

"Come on! From here on out, just trust us."

Stoutly, the four of them took the lead. Initially, the purpose of combing the abyss was for this exploration, so after arriving at their destination, their enthusiasm instantly increased drastically.

"Very exciting! Aren't you, Weed?" Of course Mapan did not miss, he also felt very happy. Because this was a rare experience for a Merchant.

Weed just nodded in silence. 'So their main goal was to bring us here.'

Now, he began to understand the behavior of those four people who were being nice with open arms. This was also the reason they misled Weed and Mapan into the abyss instead of going through the easiest path.

'It turns out that the people did not aim to pass through the Baruk mountains. From the beginning their goal was to find this place. I'm sure they must have some information about this place.' Now it would be very dangerous if Weed had already revealed what he knew. So, he still acted as if he didn't know anything.

"Thank you Axe. Thanks to you we both had an amazing adventure experience. After all, Sculptors would not gain this kind of experience so easily." Weed looked down sadly.

Axe patted his shoulder once acting like a close friend, "Together, Weed. Just trust us."

"Hunting together is one of the true joys of Royal Road." Spade got into a sweet conversation between them.

"In the future, there will be many more interesting things." Lawn Mayer smiled broadly at Mapan and Weed.

They look like true friends who have just met, interaction between each other is very cool to see.
