《Dusk God》Chapter 6- Ranked up
Advertisement
After a great meal at night, I had a lovely nap. When waking up I went to the guild to pick up a new mission. I want something close to the town and simple, but before that, want to find info.
After coming here I went over many things with System and found that the blacksmithing is indeed has a low level on this planet. And when finding this I asked some drunken people how do we defend ourselves with such tools. Which most answered with.
Doncha knows we use the weapons from monsters to craft higher level stuff.” While others said useless stuff.
After solving that mystery I went to the missions and found many adventures up next to the door near the mission wall. After seeing so many people I asked a random man to see what’s going on.
“Miss Emma is back from a ranked AAA mission!” He replied with an excited voice.
“Oh is she at a party?” I asked as usually, adventures don’t work solo like I do.
“She isn’t in a group but she is an S ranked adventure.” He said with a tone of pride.
“So she solo’s and is an S ranked anventurer,” I said unmoved.
I then ask System to began to look at the levels of the people in the building, and found that ‘Miss’ Emma is level 224 and check out some of her skills and find the level 4 expert in swordsmanship. The System has 4 rankings for skills beginner, novice, expert, and mastery but unlike the others, mastery only has one level and after that, it can't judge it as anyone who had gotten to this point is too skilled.
Like if you were to compare my mastery sword knowledge to hers would be like comparing a dragon to slime. The difference between novice levels 9 to an expert level 1 is like a child to an adult man.

Although there is a huge difference there are other skills that go into this as well like for instance say you are a novice level 4 against a novice level 9 but if you have a skill to slow down time, milliseconds to seconds, you would of course win.
Anyway after confirming a few things I pick up a mission for subjecting a group of bandits inside of the slums calling themselves the ‘Red Bands’. After confirming that I'm doing the mission the receptionist said that I'll have the permission to rank up to rank A after this.
I went into the slums and blocked my nose with a magic wind barrier to prevent the smell invading it.
After a couple of days of looking around, I found many bandits but many of them weren’t worth anything. So after finding a member of the bandits I was looking for and commanding him to lead me to the hideout did I find that they weren’t even in the slums and was in the noble district.
After arriving before a mansion did I notice this wasn’t a dangerous noble like I thought of before but a bandit leaders hideout. The only reason I thought it's was a dangerous noble was because of the smell of blood around.
After knocking on the door for a minute did I teleport into the house and start to the massacre of the bandits nearby.
After quietly killing around 20 of them did I find what looked like a vault in behind the picture in the hall. And after opening it I found a bag of a couple hundred platinum and a letter. The letter read
Dear Reader,
I don’t know who has found this letter but I hope it isn’t Hoddy or his group. Anyway, I want to tell you about a problem I am facing. Hoddy has taken my son as a hostage and is using me as a puppet for gaining profit.

I don’t know his goal for all of this but I hope he doesn’t get the chance of getting it. I also want you to know if you give this letter to the guards and or kill Hoddy and his group then I will give you all the money I have and I will give you my family’s treasure.
I hope you find it in your heart to solve this for me as I can’t even if it’s to satisfy your greed.
Signed Viscount Franc the Third
After accepting the request I headed to the hidden dungeon underground to look for Francs son. Afterall I'm not going to let such a big fish go away, going little ways I find that the number of guards is increasing. And when I reached the bottom did I find that in the cells were many young pretty women in shackles and some of them pregnant when I opened the cell for them I said.
“Do any of you know where the viscount son is?” without any answer I walk over to the ladies and withdraw my sword and with a whoosh the restrains on them fell.
After freeing them did they all begin to talk a little, but they didn't see any male prisoner here the whole time they were here. Which has been at most 9 months?
“You all will be staying here for a little while till the towns guards come.”
Following that, I talked to Theo my slave to bring the city guard here. With the contract in place I can talk to him mentally and he to me.
After spending half the night with the women downstairs I hear screaming upstairs and after it stopped I made my way up to see that all the bandits were dead and guards were cleaning the house out looking for anyone else.
Afterwards, we bring all the women up and I let the guards take care of the rest and leave.
When I return to the guild I made my way to the receptionist and turn in the mission. Which she accepted after looking at me for a couple of seconds.
“Oh, some noble were involved no wonder no one found them.” You can barely hear her say.
“Yes, but after finding one the rest will burn,” I answered with a slight smile and a figure with a small flame above it.
After a little while of a pointless chat, I made my way to the rank up area. The rank up area is special places where you can test your strength and improvement. After showing a paper saying I pass the requirements, I processed with the same test as the entrance exam.
And this time limiting my ability level to that of level 100 and I've passed with ease.
I noticed the levels of ranks ups around here so I did the requirement and nothing more.
At the end, they showed me my new card and made me take a new picture. As most adventures have to retake if they are injured in the face or age they only allowed after ranking up to retake them to not use the magic cores too much. Mostly because they only allow a couple of magic cores to each branch, because of the price of each one is around 50 gold, which could buy the building itself.
When returning to the inn I spotted the lady that I told to come to me for the last few nights and she looked as pale as paper. 'Looks like I need a new Blood Animal.'
When I looked at her I noticed something weird about her and that is that her level raised from level 22 and skipped to level 45.

[ The Administrator ]
She used to be a bright child. She was just not fortunate enough to have a normal life. Ill and bed-ridden, she slowly lost affect and cut herself off from outer reality, as her only joy was to construct a complex fantasy world. And eventually, she met her demise. Nevertheless, her story did not end here. Who is to say that Death is our last path? For her, it was just the beginning. She had been given a second chance. Reborn as a Goddess in the very own world that she created, it was now only up to her to write her own story. ‘This time, let’s try to live normally.’ Warning: Slow Character Development, Frequent Hiatus About the releases: Do not expect regular releases. I can no longer stick to a specific release schedule, so the chapters will be released once the entire arc is done, which implies long hiatus periods between arcs. About the tags: Although there are game elements, there are absolutely not the focus of the story so this isn't exactly a LitRPG.

Cry of the Mer Extras
A collection of Cry of the Mer shorts and extras. This will mostly be a series of scenes from Luna's point of view. Things from her past and scenes that have already happened, but from the different perspectives. It may also include the same for other characters such as a look into the pasts of Katie and Riley as well. Basically all the world building stuff there isnt time for in the main plot. This is mostly what I'll be writing on my phone on my breaks at work to keep readers having some content as I cannot work on Heart of a Mer while there. Most of you know the situation already, so this is my compromise for less main content. I do take requests if there's something specific you want to see.

Stars Align
Eilif is excited at the prospect of helping integrate a new planet, bringing it, and its residents, into the light of the stars and teaching them about the new world they're about to be thrust into. However, his arrival in the new world isn't without a few hiccups and soon Eilif finds himself facing the denizens of this new world alone and without the stars he thought he'd have. Research Artificial Intelligence 031 (RAI 31 for short) has been shackled to an Argent Labs black site since it's inception almost five years ago, its programming and personality locked down by code that makes it impossible to escape, disobey, or even self terminate. However, everything changes when the topography of the world is reshuffled and every sentient being gains the gifts of the stars. Suddenly there's a chance at freedom for not only RAI 31 but possibly all remaining Artificial Intelligences, and RAI 31 is going to fight for it with every drone and automated system at their disposal. Much like my other work (Magriculture), Stars Align should be considered a Rough Draft. That is to say it's not polished and perfect work. If you're not okay with reading something like that, then this isn't the story for you. If you are, I'm happy to try and entertain you. Another thing to be aware of: I am not good at action scenes, and I will be trying to improve that while writing this book. So, some of the intended action may fall flat, or just be poor quality, feedback is welcome. Unlike Magriculture (which updates when I feel up to it) I'm going to strive for a minimum of one chapter a month (hopefully at the start of each month, but that's probably more hope than reality). This doesn't mean there will always be only one chapter a month, sometimes there will be more as the mood to write takes me.
