Chapter 375
Luspel and Kaimon .
The two great powerful empires .
Their powers were so absolute that even the Lotus didn’t dare to take their swords on them .
But the same two empires were completely collapsed now .
From the map of the continents, the names of the two empires had completely disappeared .
No matter how long or fierce the war was, how could such a thing happen?
The greatest influence, however, was, the decline that was happening due to the war .
But, if it wasn’t for the last ‘event’ that was shown in the episode, maybe the situation would have been slightly different .
It was a hard and fierce war, but the winner of the war was surely Luspel—the main character .
Although the long war had weakened the strength of the Luspel, it was a situation where it could become much more powerful if it unified the empire .
“If only they didn’t…!”
A small hut on the slopes of the Neuron mountain .
An elderly man in the front had a cane that was shaking .
“Kheum . ”
The elderly ‘Louisie’, with his wrinkled eyes, sat down on the rocks .
Now, in his mind, a beautiful woman with flames all over her body came up the mountain .
“Well, if it is her… she can probably help me . ”
A few hours ago…
A powerful woman with a robe had come to visit Louisie .
It was like he was looking at the powerful magicians of the imperial army of the empire during his time .
He hadn’t seen her perform any magic or spells, but he just knew .
It was because Louisie himself was a wizard .
And if it wasn’t for a powerful wizard, there was no way the place he was staying could have been found out .
“Said it was Remir… let’s try and trust her for once . ”
Louisie moved his eyes and closed his eyes again .
If would be fine if it was that woman, she can find the secrets of ‘Striae’ .
But then .
Louisie’s eyes turned a wide .
The woman he had been thinking of till a while ago—the woman called Remir, was right in his line of sight .
And his expression brightened .
The fact that she returned meant that something had been done .
Even there was nothing that could be achieved, the spirits that protect it would’ve at least been killed .
But after a while, Louisie was forced to be panicked .
It was because there were others along with Remir .
Louisie gained all the energy he could to get a clear look at the three new men .
And among the three, his gaze was fixed on one person .
That was the person with a red cloak and golden gloves .
Also, he was wearing a golden waistband .
Seeing him get close, Louisie began to get intimidated more and more .
“Wow, how did you know?”
“A transparent spell and fly magic . How many more wizards are there that can double cast in real time? Besides, look at the forest, it’s a mess with ashes . If it wasn’t you, then who could it be?”
“Ugh, you son of a ghost…”
Remir who was found out by Ian had an odd feeling .
A bit of hate and like too—hence the expression was adoring and disgusting at the same time .
‘If I go with this jerk, then I’ll surely level up faster…’
However, after a week of hunting with him, there was a minor side effect that came along with it—she had to stay in bed for a day .
“Anyway! There is a cabin of the Louisie on that side right?”
“Yeah, you shameless jerk . ”
“Shameless?! Well, can’t there be a little exchange of information between us?”
“What do you mean by us?”
“Hm… since we battled in the war together…?”
“Boo, not a funny joke bastard . ”
Before the beginning of the Dimension War, the relationship with Remir was there .
They haven’t come together in the past few months, but neither of them had been out of touch .
By helping out the Lotus guild, she had become close to Herz .
Her age was 24, the 3-years difference between them didn’t affect anything .
“Then, noona, by getting the Louisie instant quest, you’re trying to level up while hunting?”
Remir nodded and replied,
“I guess so . I came here as soon as the server had opened . ”
With a strange look, Ian questioned her,
“Nothing else apart from an instant quest? I’m sure that it wouldn’t be ended like that…?”
“Well…? I haven’t received any other quest apart from the instant quest yet . ”
“Aha…?”
Frowning, Ian touched his chin and drifted into thoughts .
‘There is no way… if it is Louisie, he would’ve given a huge quest related to the Luspel Empire…’
Ian was recollecting the second part of the episode that he had seen .
It would have been a tough task for people with less concentration and eyesight, but he was sure that the background in the video was the Neuron Mountain .
And surely most of the Luspel empire people would’ve been somewhere in the mountain .
And in the screen, they showed Louisie, who was hiding near the Undead in the Neuron mountains for a split second .

‘There should be some quests related to him…’
Ian who was deep in thoughts stopped, the moment Remir had stopped .
“Why did you stop? There’s nothing in here?”
“Wait and see . ”
Hwoong-!
Remir was swirling her hands in the air .
A small hut on an empty ground came into his visibility the next moment .
In front of Ian was an old man in a grey robe with a staff in his hands .
And Ian was able to recognize the identity of the man immediately .
‘Ruisei…!’
Blow – blow-!
Thanks to Remir, Ian easily managed to find Louisie, and he approached him with a smile on his face .
But then, Louisie did something unexpected .
“God! Ian has come here . ”
Louisie suddenly bent down on one knee in the direction of Ian .
Even Remir, who was right beside Ian was shocked at this, Ian took a step back at this unexpected act .
And Ian getting his composure back, nodded and extended his hand .
In fact, even Ian knew that such an act from Louisie was a natural thing .
As the time of the Luspel’s empire reign, Ian was the bravest and loyal warrior in the whole of the Empire .
“It has been so long, Louisie . Stand up right away . ”
“Huk, Keuk…!”
Louisie stood up while crying, he was unable to control his emotions .
And he managed to speak between the sobs .
“I’m very glad that you’re safe…! Is the Lotus Dukedom all well?”
Ian nodded and answered,
“Yes, Louisie . And just today the Dukedom of Lotus has claimed the Kingdom title . ”
“Ahah…!”
Louisie had a look of fascination on his face .
Ian was one of the most trusted person for King Serius, which meant that the Kingdom was like a tribute to him .
He wouldn’t have felt glad if the Luspel hadn’t been destroyed, but in the situation that he was in, he couldn’t help but feel glad for the Lotus .
“Lord Ian, will you come inside?”
Louisie led Ian into his cabin, and Ian followed without much words .
And Ian would be able to gather a lot of information from him .
“So . . what you mean to say is, the place where Remir was fighting was far under the ground?”

“Yes, your majesty . Please speak in a low voice . ”
“Umm, well… I can do that . ”
Ian smiled and sat back into his seat .
It felt nice to get asked like that .
‘Well, it was a clue to find Louisie, the disappeared loyalist of the Imperial Luspel Empire . ’
And Louisie continued,
“Majesty . Please rescue the other loyalists of the Empire who are trapped in there . ”
Ian answered with a quick nod .
There could be some talented people in there, even if was just one named NPC, that itself would be huge .
And if he managed to clear out the quests, then he might be able to get the human resources he wanted .
“All right Louisie . I’ll give it a try . ”
“I’m in your debt, your majesty!”
Louisie bowed to him Ian as a sign of gratitude, and the very moment a quest window appeared in front of Ian’s eyes .

Ian read the contents of the quest and lifted his head .
The name of Chalian written for the rewards was for a familiar .

‘What…? Richie King Chalian… it is a name I have heard somewhere…’
After a while…
Ian was able to remember where he had come across the name .
‘That is it! The Orb of Darkness! The monster-like guy appeared in the Tower of Commander when we received the Orb of Darkness, Chalian!’
The very moment, his head started to get heavy .
Chalian was apparently sealed in the Devildom .
Which was he didn’t understand why his name appeared in here .
But now, it was important, Ian opened his mouth as he had something to say to Ruisei,
“Then, I’ll be going Louisie . Wait for me . ”
Louisie bowed his head as a polite gesture and responded,
“Yes, lord . Be careful . ”
“Okay . Don’t worry about it . ”
Remir, who was standing beside Ian had something to say,
“Sir, why wasn’t I given anything like this?”
Unlike Ian, Remir was only provided with an instant quest for which Ruisei spoke with a gentle expression .
“I couldn’t, as I wasn’t sure of your title Miss Remir . On the other hand, Ian is a noble, someone I already knew…”
“Sh*t . ”
“If I knew you were an acquaintance of his majesty, then I would’ve said something in the very beginning . So please don’t show the grudge on my majesty, and help him with this . ”
And in front of Remir came the same quest window that Ian had seen, now she was smiling .
“Alright, sir . Trust me . ”
The two people moved away from the cabin of Ruisei .
Since Remir knew the exact location, there was no need for wasting time .
And then .
Remir who discovered the underground frowned and mumbled,
“Oh Sh*t, that one is back again . I had a hard time taking him down in the morning . ”
And the mumbling of Remir, Ian’s gaze moved to the place Remir was looking with curiosity .
“What? What is wrong? Is it because of that pig sh*t that’s standing there?”
Where Ian’s gaze stood—a dark-colored golem was standing, at which Remir nodded and said,
“Yep, that guy . He’s not hard to deal with, but he’s huge . It took me around 20 minutes to get a hold of that guy in the morning…”
At those words, Ian smirked and muttered,
“Don’t worry noona . That fatso…”
Ian lifted his hand and a red haze began to form in front of them .
As the red haze became thicker, it soon began to shape itself .
Both the eyes of Remir and Ian were shocked at what they were seeing .
“Ba, Balrog…?”
