BXBX NOVEL Chapter 211 - Dreams Come True
"So you\'ve agreed to allow me to take over as the leader as long as I defeat FFF on my own right?" Yuki asked one more time to make sure that he wasn\'t just imagining it.
"Yes, I\'ve agreed to those conditions. Of course if you can\'t accomplish the goal, the deal will be off as would be expected," Arthur replied.
"Huh?! Why would you do something as absurd as that clan leader?! Giving up the clan would mean giving up all of us to that child!" the top 5 members of the guild complained.
"Seeing as how you\'re speaking about Yuki, you think that he\'s not capable of leading a clan. Seeing as that is what you believe, you should have no problems with the deal I made since in your eyes, he\'s nothing but trash, right?" Arthur asked them to which they kept quite a few seconds before one of them spoke up.
"While we might think that he\'s worthless, if he\'s truly as talented as you say he is, he may actually be able to accomplish the goal. Even so, we don\'t want him as our leader. He might be strong but I doubt he has the brain power to lead a whole clan on his own, especially one as well powerful as WD," one of the top 5 members complained to Arthur.
"All of you believe in my superior brain power right?" Arthur asked them first to which all of them replied at the same time with a strong "Yes!".
"Then you must know that I have a reason why I would pass on the duties of being the leader to Yuki. To be honest it\'s not something heroic. I\'m just tired of all the work that goes into being a clan leader. Under the condition that Yuki is allowed to continue to do as I please with my ability, I don\'t care what he chooses to do with the clan. To be honest I would have passed it down to anyone who offered but no one ever did," Arthur said to the top 5 members of the clan.
"Wait what?! It would have been that easy?! Why didn\'t you say that earlier? Any one of us would have rushed to get the position. It\'s not every day that you get to become the leader of the most powerful clan in the world," another member of the top 5 members in the WD clan spoke.
"Well that\'s too bad. I didn\'t know you would have wanted the position. Anyway it\'s too late for that, now that Yuki is here, he\'s the only one I can rely on to defeat the FFF clan so that this clan does not suffer at all. Of course even if he fails, they\'ll be extremely weakened," Arthur explained back to them as they looked at Yuki with eyes of death.
"Anyway Yuki, how many weeks are you looking to get before the war starts? I can somehow get you some pretty good time but you better not waste any of it. FFF is never to be taken lightly as before you know it, you might be already dead," Arthur explained to Yuki.
"Let\'s see. I\'m level 27 right now. I would like to be around level 45 to level 50 at least and even level 55 just in case. I need about 6 weeks but I\'ll take 8 just in case," Yuki replied as he quickly calculated how many weeks he would need to be off on his training trip.
"Consider it done. Now, is there anything that I can provide you with for your trip?" Arthur asked in a kind yet manipulating voice.
"Don\'t worry about that, I\'ll take care of the rest of the stuff," Yuki replied as he took a deep sigh of disappointment as he needed to take care of a lot of things very soon.
"First, I need to restock on food and that should be it. I should avoid relying on potions. Even if it makes things a lot more difficult than they have to be, it\'ll be worth it when I clear a dungeon on my own," said Yuki to himself as he headed out of the castle-like building and began to look around for a small store which sold food or served customers.
After walking around for what seemed like years, Yuki finally stumbled across the perfect place for him. It was a large shop, much similar to a grocery store without all the fancy electronic objects.
Once entering the place, Yuki who was expected just to find a couple fruits to snack on was surprised to find a whole area with food that was already packed as if it was taken out.
"Is this someone\'s ability?" Yuki asked himself as there would be no way a simple NPC\'s store would be so puzzling. However it wasn\'t like Yuki was about to complain as he picked up quite a large amount of packaged food that he had almost forgotten to grab the fruits. In the end, right before he checked out, he ran back to get some fruit.
"Will that be all for you today sir?" a skinny tall man asked Yuki at the front register where the cashier would work. Of course it wouldn\'t be that futuristic since the era which Yuki was in wouldn\'t allow for such technological inventions just yet. Instead all that was there was a long table with a single man placing the customer\'s off to the side as he calculated the price in his head and told them to the customer once he was done with his task.
...
After restalking on his supplies of food for the mission he was about to go on, Yuki began to head home as he would leave pretty soon and wanted to tell Scar and Avila about how he would be gone for a while.
...
"I guess no one is home. Maybe this was for the best. I hope the clan can tell them I have gone on a quest and won\'t be back for a while. It would suck for them to worry for no reason," said Yuki to himself as he began to walk towards the castle-like building in the middle of the kingdom as he needed to take care of something.
After arriving at the castle-like building in the kingdom which was the base of operations for the WD clan, Yuki spoke to Arthur one last time as he needed to make sure that his clan leader knew that Yuki was going to actually head out for real.
"Good luck Yuki. Hope you can make it back in one piece," said Arthur as he waved goodbye to Yuki who continued to walk towards the end of the kingdom in the middle of the night as a whole day had passed while he had been preparing.
"Zero, take me to the 6th dungeon in this world," said Yuki with a confident voice.
"As you wish sire," said Zero who teleported Yuki exactly where he needed to be. This was somewhat of an advantage as instead of having to check multiple dungeons just to learn that they\'re the wrong one since the rarity of a dungeon increases by 2 times at every step until the 20th dungeon which is basically impossible to find.
However, with the help of Zero, Yuki could avoid all that trouble as the extra terrestrial being could just locate every single dungeon of the dungeon number which Yuki was looking for and teleport him to whichever one of his choosing.
After Zero had teleported Yuki to the next dungeon which he needed to go inside, Yuki thanked Zero for all his help before beginning to walk towards the dungeon entrance gate.
"So Yuki, do you really believe that you\'re capable of defeating every single monster here without relying on any potions? Do you truly believe that something like this could ever be possible?" Zero asked his master.
"Zero, what are the probabilities of me cleaning this dungeon along with the rest of them?" Yuki asked Zero even though he knew what the answer would be.
"The chances of someone with the exact same body and level as you would have a 0.642% chance of clearing this dungeon on their own.
"However, you\'re not like the average human. You have several assets at your side whenever things get too desperate. The only drawback to this is that you will never make any true meaningful progress as the real version of you is much stronger than this form you have on. As such, it would be able to do anything you can and even do it a million times better than this version of you, as such, the chances of you clearing this dungeon along with every other one is 100%," Zero explained to Yuki which seemed to be quite hurt by Zero\'s harsh words.
"You know what, you can go ahead and think that. Right now, I know for a fact that I\'ll make meaningful progress. I don\'t care if someone else can do the things which I can and even do them better.. All that matters to me is that I can accomplish my dreams.
