《How Does One Become Strong?》Chapter 8- The World
Advertisement
A few hours go by with me telling her about Streak and I's past. "Wow, that must have been really hard for you two"(Tor)
"I guess. Anyways, it's time that we learn about the world outside of the Underworld."(Jack)
"The world outside has 5 known continents. Eis, a frozen land occupied by frost giants and beasts. Feuer, a land scorched by fire, occupied by dragons and the Hitze people: a race that is similar to humans in anatomy but are covered in scales and immune to heat. Nobody tresspasses on Eis or Feuer in fear of the powerful creatures and dreadful climate. There is also the Mensch continent which is the humans continent. Mensch is the only continent with suitable weather for humans to reside, the humans are one of the weakest races. The only reason that the humans have their own continent and have not been exterminated is because of their massive population and their technological advances such as cannons, catapults, walls and many other things.
The fourth continent is the Wald continent. This continent is covered in forestry It is populated mainly by elves and many sprites, fees, fairies and Dryads. The Wald continent is very secretive so not much is known about them. The last known continent is the Achtung continent. Achtung isn't really a continent but a sea. This is the reason why the world has 5 KNOWN continents, the Achtung Sea is far larger than any of the continents. It separates the world in half and is filled with the strongest beasts from the continents. It is said that there is some secret in the Achtung sea that attracts beasts over SSS+ from all around the 5 continents into it. They only let other people over SSS+ into it"(Tor)
"Wait a minute, what do you mean over SSS+? I thought that was the highest level."(Jack)

"You really don't know anything about this world. The highest rank most people get to in their life is around E rank. Of course that only goes for those who have normal jobs like farmers. There are also people called adventurers who travel into dungeons and sell the items they recieve. Basically, adventurers usually get to around C rank in their lives, just to give you a strength comparison. Anyways, SSS+ is like the greatest rank in the continents since most above that have already gone to the Achtung. The few remaining people above SSS+ rank are the ones we had gotten this information from. The rank after SSS+ is Domain User. After that is skilled Domain user. The final one that we know of is Domain Master."(Tor)
"I see... so I am extremely weak in this world. Tell me more about these dungeons."(Jack)
"Dungeons are structures that randomly pop up around the world. They are based under the ground and are filled with dangerous monsters that drop items when they are killed. They are ranked from I to SSS+. I rank is suitable for F rank adventurers and Dungeon SSS+ is suitable for Domain masters."(Tor)
"So they are like Dungeons in the MMORPGs on Earth huh."(Jack)
"What?"(Tor)
"Nothing Nothing. Anyways let's get some sleep now."(Jack)
"Okay"(Streak)
"Fine"(Tor)
The next morning I woke up with determination in my eyes. I woke up Streak and we had some breakfast before getting ready to leave.
"Where are you guys going"(Tor)
"Hunting, you stay here"(Jack)
After a bit of useless arguing Tor accepted her fate. After that Streak and I stepped outside.
"Ahh, it's quite comforting to know about where you are and not being in the dark."(Jack)
"Yeah! It's like drinking water after days of being thirsty. That comes from expierience."(Streak)

"Hmm, it's quite sad that you experienced something like that."(Jack)
"Thinking back on it now, I had many options. It was just my stupidity that got me into all kinds of situations."(Streak)
Suddenly, a dark atmosphere surrounded us and blocked off all senses and left a terrifying feeling. Ending abruptly my senses came back and came the sound of heavy raspy breathing.
"I've been watching you cough cough"(???)
"Who are you." I said trying to brave the terrifying atmosphere being let off by the creature.
"Heh Heh, it would do you well for you to show some respect. KID."(???)
"Y-You-You didn't answer my question."I said trying to ignore the overwhelming pressure that was hacking away at the pride that wasn't letting me back down
"Hmph, you're strong willed. Fine, I am the shadow covering the sun, the enemy of light. DARK DRAGON. I have been watching you for some time now, you seem to be the only one in this forest that has any dignity and is striving to escape. Can I trust you?"(Dark Dragon)
"Why are you asking?"(Jack)
"Don't push it! I was a mighty SSS+ monster who was about to undergo the Domain's challenge. I was facing each of the challenges thrown at me head-on with dignity. Apparently, the TITANS didn't like me so they came down from the heavens and banished me to this land in this weak, decayed form. I need food, nutrients, I need help. I haven't eaten in decades. If someone were to help me by bringing me what I need to grow back to my old strength I would help them escape this cursed land. I have chosen you, what do you say?"(Dark Dragon)
"...okay, I have a need to escape here anyways, I don't see a problem with it."(Jack)
"Well then, we have a deal."(Dark Dragon)
