Chapter 272: 272
Ralph.
He was no ordinary person.
He was the captain of the team that had led a small team to the city of Sarkos, and when they finally met Flanders, only he and one other person had escaped.
They belonged to The Company.
Ralph was the captain of the team that had been destroyed by Flanders.
When the team had been destroyed, it was Ralph who had used his legacy magic to turn half of the city into a giant ice sculpture.
He used ice to freeze Flanders.
But in the end, it was because Flanders let him go on purpose that he managed to escape.
But after all, he had accepted the mission from The Company.
So, even if there was only one person left, he could not give up on this mission.

And this mission was sent by Brad who was in the Black Swamp. They met Rei from the Mage Association, so they needed help.
For this mission, Ralph came alone.
Anyway, he was a B+ rank powerhouse. Normal dangers could not stop him, and he was the most useful.
And similarly.
Brad was not a simple person in The Company.
The team he led was also ranked in the top three in the company.
Not only that.
Every year, Brad’s team’s ranking in the company was higher than Ralph’s team.
However, this did not mean that the other team was better than Ralph’s team.
In fact, the members of both teams had fought with each other for many years.
Their teamwork was quite tacit.
Any member could understand the other team’s thoughts just by looking at each other.
Even without the captain.
If the members of both teams were to really fight, they would definitely be evenly matched.
Under such circumstances.
The only reason why Brad’s team could suppress Ralph’s team year-round was because of his strength as the team leader.

He surpassed Ralph.
Ralph was a B+ rank.
Moreover, because he came from a long-standing mage family, he had mastered many powerful spells.
Therefore, his own strength, even in the entire B+ rank, there were very few opponents, and his strength was quite high.
Therefore, he wanted to suppress Ralph in terms of strength.
Brad’s strength, of course, had already surpassed B rank and reached A rank!
He was The Company’s true trump card.
He was someone who had the chance to stand shoulder to shoulder with Rei from the Mage Association!
He was quite powerful, but he still called for help from the company this time because Rei was too powerful.
“The scream just now should be around here, right?”
Under the lead of Brad, they passed through the golden wheat field and soon arrived at a place.
Brad first glanced around.
Then, he said, “everyone, look around and see if there’s anyone nearby.”
“But remember, don’t separate. Although you don’t know whose Domain this is, you can probably feel that this Domain isn’t simple. Once you’re alone, it’s very likely that something bad will happen.”
After Brad finished speaking.
He looked around and instructed his team members.
Then, everyone immediately looked around.
Very soon.
Someone noticed a mage lying on the ground, trembling.
Everyone gathered around.
They all looked at the latter. It was obvious that this mage was already on his last breath. There was not much time left.
“It’s him?!”
Ralph was surprised.
Then, seeing the doubts of the others, Ralph explained, “when we first entered the Black Swamp, we didn’t meet up with you. It seems that the person is called Dean. His strength is average.”
“At that time, he was only B rank.”
“I did not expect him to be pulled into this Domain.”
“And now he looks like this… he must have encountered something.”

Everyone frowned.
Brad lowered his head to take a look.
Then he said, “this person is mentally stimulated.”
“From the looks of it, he is probably still immersed in the illusion.”
After saying that.
Brad added, “this person’s strength is only C+ rank. Just like you guys, he has been weakened by a level by this Domain.”
All B rank mages had their levels reduced by one point in this Domain.
But he was different.
He was an A grade powerhouse.
Although this domain had a slight suppressive effect on him, it was not enough to weaken his strength and drop him to B rank.
But the others were all B rank.
They were very angry at the mention of this.
“Which guy’s Domain is this?”
“What is he trying to do?!”
Someone complained.
They had been walking in this golden wheat field for a long time, but other than the golden wheat field and the sun in the sky, they did not find anything, let alone find the owner of this territory.
However, as soon as this person finished his words.
They found that they were dizzy, and the space around them began to distort.
The dizziness disappeared.
Soon, they found that the scene around them had changed.
This was a damp place.
It was filled with a cold and terrifying aura.
They could even clearly see the red murderous aura floating in the sky when they looked up.
There were white bones everywhere on the ground.
Occasionally, a pitch-black crow would jump out from among the white bones.
Looking forward, it was a blood-red sea of corpses.
The Sea of corpses was like boiling water, as if there were vengeful souls struggling and roaring below!
The surface of the river was churning violently!
It was like hell!
On the other side of the river, the magician named dean from before was lying on the ground, holding his head and screaming in pain. He kept rolling around.
With a whoosh, his entire body instantly fell into the sea of corpses.
The blood waves surged.
“Ah!!”
There was only a short scream from the waves of blood.
The waves of blood were getting stronger and stronger.
Then, Ralph and the others saw a skeleton floating up from the sea of corpses.
In an instant, all the mages, including Brad, felt a chill down their spines and their scalps went numb.
How was this a Domain?
This was simply Hell on Earth!
Seeing this, everyone took a few steps back and distanced themselves from the sea of corpses, afraid that the waves of blood would splash onto their bodies.
Even Ralph could not help but change his expression.
Only Brad’s expression did not change much.
After all, he was an A rank mage, and his strength gave him a lot of confidence.
However, he also did not dare to approach the sea of corpses.
He had seen the scene just now.
He did not know the true power of the sea of corpses before him, but from the scene just now, he did not know the true power of the sea of corpses.
But…
“The feeling this sea of corpses gives me is very terrifying.”
Brad said.
As soon as he finished speaking.
He found that the surface of the sea of corpses, which was originally boiling, suddenly became calm. After a few seconds, the surface of the sea of corpses suddenly began to churn violently, several times more violently than before!

Then, his eyes that were staring at the sea of corpses suddenly narrowed.
Corpses that looked like they had been fried walked out of the sea of corpses, heading in their direction.
“Captain!”
“Brad!”
The people next to him were all shocked.

A (Not So) Simple Fetch Quest
Oh great hero! The evil Demon Lord has once again arisen to terrorise our lands, and we have summoned you to save our people! No, we don't want you to fight the demon lord! Of course not; we're the good guys! What sort of good guys kidnap people from other worlds and force them to take part in wars that have nothing to do with them? That would just be plain evil! We'd be no better than the demons! Katie, after her summoning by an excessively loud mage suddenly takes an unexpected twist, is sent off on a simple fetch quest, with a promise that she'll be back home in five minutes at most. She doesn't even need to leave the building. Alas, when a goddess' blessing causes her wish for an actual adventure to be taken rather more literally than she expected, she finds herself lost in a dark cave, far away from the sword she was supposed to acquire and far too close to a population of giant bugs. Still, at least she wished her life wasn't in any danger. Among other things. Be careful what you wish for. You might just get it. This is a dark litRPG adventure, both in terms of Katie accidentally wishing all the lights out, and also in that she loses as often as she wins, often with horrific and disturbing consequences. Luckily, Katie isn’t the sort of person to let a mere grizzly death or two get her down, and is prepared to try, try and try again to get her hands on the holy sword and finally complete her ‘simple’ fetch quest. Or perhaps—with a few resistance skills under her nightie—she might even come to enjoy losing. Not that she’d ever consider forgoing revenge, even if she did. I’ve ticked all the content warning checkboxes for this one. There’s no explicit sexual content, but there are enough references to justify the warning. Profanity happens rarely, but Katie isn’t averse to swearing when she gets particularly angry. As for gore/trauma, it doesn’t get much worse than the first few chapters, but there will be occasional chapters that have extra content warnings.
