Requiem Of A Failed Hero



While Slyvia was lost in thoughts, Draear's eyes shone with respect for Raith. 

'He is amazing!'

Raith displaced the mana that gathered around and proudly looked at Slyvia. 

"Can you teach me teleportation magic now?'

No doubt, he would be able to deal with it. If he could control such a large amount of mana without having a mana circle, Slyvia was sure he would be able to use a mass-scale teleportation spell better than she ever could. But it injured her pride to concede like this. 

"I...I..." She stuttered. 

"Raith!" 

Mok Jae-Hwa's voice entered the hall, interrupting everything that was going on in the gym. He walked hastily with a black envelope in his hands. 

He flashed the envelope at Raith as he got closer. 

"You have been invited to the World Hunter Summit."

Raith cocked his head, "What is that?"

Mok Jae-Hwa looked at the other two people in the room. 

'Right, none of them know what it means to be invited to the world hunter summit'

It pained him that he didn't get the reaction he was expecting because this was the biggest of big deals. 

No one wishes for it, however, there are situations where the hunters come together to hold a conference. It happened during the outbreak of a dragon gate. Some gates are said to exist and are called unranked gates. Gates that not even unranked hunters are capable of defeating. 

When such gates appear, after several lives are taken, the strongest hunters in the world come together, including the strongest unranked hunters. Three of whom were remaining now. 

The meeting aims to form a party of hunters who are suitable to challenge the gate. 

Mok Jae-Hwa didn't make it to the last time because Korea still had a lot of disaster hunters who were stronger than him. Plus he was just a rookie hunter then. However, not only did he get invited, but he also had someone from his guild who got invited. Yes, Raith. 

His face was brimming with delight. 

"I see. Can I turn it down?"

His delight was short-lived.

"Why? Why would you do such a thing!! This is the best meeting you will ever be invited to. You will have the opportunity to meet other hunters, you'll be able to see how strong you are..."

"I'm packed at the moment Mok Jae-Hwa. I have my hands full with trying to get the people to a safe place. What do you mean by attending a summit at a time like this? I can send Balam, will that be okay." 

Mok Jae-Hwa was sorrowful, this was a very bad thing. He thought Raith would surely be happy to attend a meeting like this, after all, this was a guy who was obsessed with strong people. Right now, he seemed carefree, unbothered. 

"I guess it is not a bad idea to have Balam follow me..." 

He kept a calm face while saying that but it was a lie. He was excited at the thought of it. It was exhilarating. Having a demon king accompany him to the summit of hunters. His heart was filled with several thoughts, the endless routes of possibilities tugged his chest with excitement. 

"Fine, if you are okay with that then leave, this girl is just about to teach me teleportation magic." 

"Magic?" 

The subject sounded fictional to Mok Jae-Hwa. 

"Yes, magic..."

"I guess, I would love to see it." 

The air suddenly became cold, and all of them were waiting for just one person. 

Slyvia was faced with a dilemma, she would have to ignore this puffing feeling in her chest and teach him anyway. She had thought she would be able to teach him a big lesson using this opportunity of him wanting to learn teleportation. 

"I... I guess, I would have to teach... the concept of..."

"You know what, never mind. I think I have a hang of it already." 

'Why have I been stressing myself all the while? I can just create the magic skill.'

Raith shrugged and lowered his gaze. 

[Input Skill Info]

'Being able to move through different locations.' 

[Your description is insufficient]

Raith rubbed his chin.

There was so much he wasn't thinking about. He looked into Slyvia's eyes and doubted himself. 

'Was I too impetuous?' 

He continued to look at her then shook his head. 

'Nah, I'll figure this out, if I had thought of using my creation attribute from the beginning then I would have been able to save my masterly dignity.'

There again about the masterly dignity. 

'To teleport from one location to another, both locations have to be in view. Then if I put in the description that the ability to move from one location to another within the scope of my imagination... it should work.'

So, he thought. 

However...

[Skill cannot be created at your level]

[Nerfing skill description]

Skill info: moving from one marked location to another. 

[Do you want to create skill 'Simple Teleportation']

Raith looked at the description he was giving. He didn't like it but it didn't sound bad. 

'Does this mean I first have to go to Antarctica to mark the place before coming back?'

He questioned himself, there was no provided answer but he could feel it in his gut that his suspicion was correct. Not wanting to succumb to asking Slyvia for help. He went ahead with it.

[Calculating skill fragments needed]

[1595/500]

[Creating skill 'Simple Teleportation']

[Skill Info]

- Simple Teleportation(S)

- Active

- ability to transfer anything from one marked location to another. 

He turned to Mok Jae-Hwa. 

"I have to go to Antarctica right now." 

"What? Why?" 

"I want to test something out." He said, casting one last carefree glance at Slyvia who was frowning at him. 

'There's no way he would get it. Teleportation is not something that can easily be gotten. I find it easy because I'm a dragon, for a human it would take at least five circles to be able to cast a teleportation spell.' 

Raith crouched and touched the floor. As he did, a magic circle appeared. 

He walked outside the gym. The next second, a blue light surged from the ground where the magic circle had appeared. The light faded to reveal Raith. 

And Slyvia's pride shattered.
