Versatile: Alternate World

I definitely can't finish this job alone. I can definitely work on it solo but it might take me a long time to finish and that is not something I want to happen especially with the time limit. However, what I needed are companions who are going to be someone I can trust behind my back. I can do that with Dolly, Iron, Hagane, and Topaz. However, the others are still someone I don't have any idea if I can trust them on this or not. Harmless Sparrow is a candidate for someone trustworthy but she still has her guild that she needed to manage and know the players in many guilds nowadays, they won't just take this chance to let go and get the rewards by themselves. I don't have problems with Harmless Sparrow herself though.

There is also Chase who acts like a Combat Medic but I don't have much experience working with him and I don't know whether he can be trustworthy enough. It is too early to judge. But I needed all the help I can get. I need more hands in this matter but I don't need too many. If it is hard, I can just employ the help of my followers and everything will move a bit smoother. I can also ask my parents and see if they are high leveled enough to handle the danger of the place. I can even just help them power level for a bit too.

Since I don't have any job left in here and Tina is already done with her conversation and reports to Queen Tanya, we bid farewell to her but we will be back again at a later date to meet up with Queen Tori.

I called Leona and we departed to go back to my mansion. Looks like I will have to rest for a bit before I will have to venture into this next quest. But really, looks like this month is packed with things I needed to do. Not only do I need to finish some loose ends and some new quests but I also have to deal with my school life. If those guys that I have rendered amnesiac in the process comes back, I will have to resort to more troublesome work again.

...

...

"Are you sure he is the one, Tanya?" Queen Tori looked worried.

"Looks like you are still not convinced yet," Queen Tanya sips her tea.

"Of course, I have not seen what he is capable of. Also, I have not seen the weapon that can change form on his possession somehow."

"According to the reports that his follower has given, it seems he has obtained a weapon that fused together with his weapon and has to wait for a bit before it gets to be used again. Still, it was not the weapon that made him special. We fought before and if he was just much higher leveled than me, he can easily beat me to the process. He is quite unique in combat and he employed some tactics that are the first time I have seen before. He is the one that we are looking for."

"Still, this is that "King Arthur" we are talking about. That guy is a complete lunatic and has always been on the search for stronger enemies. He even abandoned the Round Table just to satisfy his urge to fight. Isn't this just a trap he laid down for people to search for his relics?"

"There is a possibility that he is doing that but if that is the case, defeating him shouldn't be a problem right? I mean you are getting stronger day by day and I doubt your abilities are much worse than mine, I think you are even beginning to catch up to me," Queen Tanya refill the teacup of Queen Tori.

"I may have gotten stronger but it is still nowhere as strong as you, sis. However, it is an exaggeration that defeating King Arthur is easy. That bastard is a tough nut to crack, and I don't think even our powers are capable of even scratching him."

"Haha, you really hate him to your core huh?" Queen Tanya started laughing.

"Ha, you just don't care much about him that is why you are like this to him. However, if I get the chance, I will smack the head of that old man," Queen Tori gritted her teeth.

"Hey, how long do you think King Arthur really is?" Queen Tanya pondered.

"Honestly, that is a mind-boggling question, my dear sister. That old fart has already been living since the battle of the two Primordial Goddesses. I doubt he is much older than the elves and dwarves who survive the wars."

"Is he really that old? The records have no mention of his real age and how long he was alive."

"We shouldn't even pressure ourselves knowing his real age. With the Excalibur and Rhongomyniad prolonging his life, I doubt he will die just yet unless some formidable enemy will appear."

"Do you think he regretted taking up the sword of selection? After all, he is now an immortal."

"Haha, trust me. Anyone who has gained the power of immortality without wishing for it would rather wish to find a way to die rather than continue to live and experience all suffering. It is only fun if you have someone else to spend eternity with," Queen Tori grinned as she sips the final drop on her teacup.

...

The Mansion that I left after a few days is no longer the mansion I once knew. The once gloomy and a bit looking like an abandoned house has been transformed into a new house that looked like a modern mansion in the real world.

"They renovated the look of the mansion?" Lucia was surprised to find the exterior of the mansion different than before.

"This must be the work of my Father."

"Your father?" Lina was curious.

"Father likes to build and design things. He wanted to be capable of designing houses before but due to our poor lifestyle before, he has to stop on his dream and focus on something that can earn money. Maybe now that we are free from debts and has already good funds of money, perhaps it rekindled his passion in building and designing buildings."

I landed in front of the mansion and everyone went out. Gobu's wife went out with the kids first to welcome our arrival while the others followed suit.

"Hey, Bladeheart! It's been a long time, you still remember us?" Dolly seems to be mad and her tone is made for real sarcasm.

"You really need to cut that out, Dolly. He said before that he will be on a quest right, have you forgotten? You are so chill about it but now that he is back, you started going hostile," Hagane scratches his head.

"Like, come on. He has gone to a faraway land and did some adventure stuff there all alone. He left us on the fun!"

I scratched my head and just put my hands on their shoulders.

"Come on, guys. Give me some slack. Don't worry even if you guys didn't get to do an adventure time with me. I brought some souvenirs that you guys can use. Will that suffice?"

"Give us some explanations first then maybe I can forgive you for ditching us. We are friends, remember? Don't ditch us like that without talking to us, dammit," Dolly wanted to sulk.

We entered the mansion and I was surprised to see the changes that were implemented. It also has a splendid paint finish too and it does look like I purchased a brand new mansion in the process.

"I didn't know uncle was this capable in his hands, when I first saw him do some renovations, I thought it would just be minor changes here and there and some repairs on broken walls but he flipped the whole house and changed it to what it was!" Hagane looked around the place, still marveling at the work.

"So it was indeed Father's work that made the mansion like this. When was this done by him?"

"A few days ago. After our last dungeon dive, he has already completed the whole place in renovation and he is still doing some minor fixes here and there."

When we arrived in the kitchen, I saw some of our friends there and someone who I didn't expect and someone who I have not seen before.

"What? What is Sigma doing here?"

I was so surprised to see the Immovable Holy Knight inside my mansion eating alongside the others. After all, she is someone who does not stick long in one place and moves on. She even does not stick much to parties and would leave after fulfilling her duties as a Holy Knight.

"She joined our dungeon dive party last time along with Big bear here. Ever since then, they are a regular part of the gang."

I looked on the opposite side of Sigma and saw the unfamiliar guy with us. He is a very large guy and he didn't have any weapon with him. From the looks of it, he is a brawler and just by his size, he is looking like a formidable player. However, he has a bear hat on his head. For some unknown reason, I kind of remember the Ghost inside the big teddy bear back in Nagoya.. For some unknown reason, he seems to resemble him a lot.
