Ding! 

<You have completed the mission: Defend the Town>

<You have been rewarded with a wooden box that contains a mysterious Sword.> 

<The reward has been placed inside the system storage!>

As Yuan stood there, exhausted and panting heavily, he glanced at the notifications popping up in his system. However, he ignored them for the time being, focusing on his current state of extreme fatigue after unleashing the devastating 'Empyreal Severing Sword Strike' that had depleted all of his Qi, except for the reserved 10 percent.

Using his sword as support, Yuan surveyed the aftermath of his attack, his gaze fixed on the immense crater that lay before him. It was a testament to the destructive power of his technique, obliterating everything in its path. Not a trace of the Orc Lord remained; even his ashes had been annihilated.contemporary romance

Staring at the crater in astonishment, Yuan couldn't help but curve his lips into a satisfied smile. 

"As expected of a 'Divine' rank technique. Its destructive force is off the charts," he murmured, acknowledging the prowess of his formidable attack.

Feeling the effects of expending his Qi, Yuan realized he was at his weakest point. He needed to recover his energy quickly. 

He exclaimed, "Damn, I've used up all of my Qi except for the 10 percent reserve. I should purchase some Qi recovery pills from the system to replenish my energy."

"Nora, buy five Qi recovery pills for me," Yuan requested. 

Nora immediately responded, [Five Qi recovery pills would cost 50 SP. Host, are you sure about making the purchase?]

Unfazed by the price, Yuan replied resolutely, "Buy them anyway. It's a small price to pay compared to being caught defenseless and getting killed." 

He had sensed a distinct killing intent emanating from the direction of the town's defense, and using his divine sense, he had detected a few hooded figures dressed in black. It was no surprise to him, as he knew that people from Viscount Lewis had been searching for him in the town.

[Understood, Host!] Exclaimed Noa, confirming the purchase. 

<You have successfully purchased Qi recovery pills (5x) for 50 SP!] 

<The five Qi recovery pills had been placed inside the system storage.>

<SP: 65SP> 

Without wasting a moment, Yuan retrieved one of the Qi recovery pills and swallowed it. Almost instantaneously, a refreshing sensation washed over his body, and all his fatigue melted away. His Qi surged, fully restored to its maximum capacity.

As Yuan regained his profound energy by consuming the Qi recovery pill, his two mothers, Anna and Grace, and his elder sister, Lily, along with his lover, Emma, approached him with concerned expressions. 

Anna examined him from head to toe, searching for any signs of injury, but found none. Still, she couldn't help but worry as she asked in a concerned tone, "The power of your attack was devastating. Are you really okay after pouring so much Qi into it?"

Lily, chiming in, added, "If you feel any pain or discomfort in your body, you need to let us know immediately. We're here to support you."

Grace and Emma shared the same worried look, albeit not as intensely as Anna and Lily. Yuan, noticing their concern, offered them a reassuring smile and said, "I'm completely fine, everyone. There's no pain in my body whatsoever." He then explained, "I took a Qi recovery pill to restore my used Qi, so I'm back to my peak power."

At the mention of the Qi recovery pill, Lily's eyes lit up with curiosity, her excitement barely contained. In an eager tone, she asked, "Do you have more of those? I'd love to see one!"

Yuan and the others couldn't help but roll their eyes at Lily's enthusiasm. However, Yuan obliged and retrieved the remaining Qi recovery pills. Handing one to each of them, he said, "Here, take one each. It will immediately restore your strength and Qi, relieving you of any fatigue."

They each accepted the pill from Yuan's hand, and Lily closely inspected the marble-sized pill before swallowing it. As the pill went down, a renewed energy seemed to wash over them, revitalizing their bodies. The fatigue that had weighed them down dissipated, replaced by a newfound vigor.

With their strength restored, Anna, Grace, Lily, and Emma felt a surge of gratitude towards Yuan. 

Meanwhile, As the townspeople stood in awe, their eyes fixed on the aftermath of the intense battle, confusion and disbelief clouded their minds. The sight of the golden pillar of light vanishing, leaving behind a massive crater, left them stunned and unable to comprehend the events that had unfolded before them. 

The chilling sensation that had sent shivers down their spines still lingered, but its meaning eluded them.

Among the onlookers, the mages were particularly bewildered. Their trained senses had failed them as they were unable to detect any trace of mana in the devastating attack unleashed by Yuan. The sheer power and the erasure of the Orc Lord from existence left them perplexed and questioning their own understanding of magic.

Association head Robert and Receptionist Mireya, too, found themselves grappling with the incomprehensible display of power. 

Mireya's voice trembled as she turned to Robert and asked, "Do you have any knowledge about the nature of that attack, Mr. Robert? I can't fathom what just happened."

Robert, his usually composed demeanor slightly shaken, shook his head in response to Mireya's question. "I'm afraid I don't have an answer," he admitted with a hint of frustration. "I've encountered many powerful spells and techniques in my time, but this... this was unlike anything I've ever witnessed. It defies our conventional understanding."

"The magnitude of its destruction and the absence of mana... It's beyond our understanding."

The mages, gathered in a group, exchanged bewildered glances, murmuring among themselves. One mage, with a hint of awe in his voice, whispered, "Could it be... a forbidden technique? Something that defies the laws of magic?"

Another mage shook his head, skepticism in his tone. "No, it can't be. Forbidden techniques require immense amounts of mana. This was different, almost... otherworldly."

As the confusion lingered in the air, Robert turned to the mages and addressed them, his voice commanding their attention. "We may not comprehend the nature of that power, but what matters now is that we have witnessed its capabilities. Whatever Yuan possesses, we must stand by him and trust in him, just as he protected this town."

The mages nodded, their doubts momentarily cast aside as they understood the gravity of the situation. It was not the time for questioning or skepticism; it was the time to rally behind their newfound ally and utilize their own magic to safeguard their home.

Mireya, still trembling slightly, asked Robert, "Should we inform the Council about this?"

Robert considered her question for a moment, then shook his head. "Not yet. The Council is wary of unknown powers, and we have yet to fully grasp what happened here. Let us investigate further before involving them. Our priority is to ensure the safety and security of this town."

Mireya nodded in agreement, her gaze fixed on the aftermath of the battlefield. She couldn't shake off the feeling of awe mixed with trepidation. She whispered to herself, "Yuan... What are you?"

In the midst of the confusion and uncertainty, one thing was certain: Yuan had unveiled an extraordinary power that defied explanation. 

As Yuan and his wives approached the gate, a wave of relief washed over the town's defenders. 

The Association head, Robert, stepped forward, his voice projecting through the crowd. "Listen, everyone! The Orc lord and his army have been slain. Not a single one of them managed to escape. We have emerged victorious!"

The words resonated in the air, spreading like wildfire. The soldiers, hunters, and townspeople erupted into a chorus of cheers, their voices echoing in jubilation. The tension that had weighed heavily on their hearts dissolved, replaced by a sense of triumph and relief.

One soldier, his face beaming with pride, shouted, "We did it! We stood strong and fought back against the Orcs! Our town is safe!"

The crowd joined in, their cheers growing louder and more exuberant. The air was filled with a mix of joy, gratitude, and disbelief. It seemed surreal to them that they had faced such a formidable foe and emerged victorious.

A townsfolk, tears streaming down her face, approached Yuan with a grateful expression. "Thank you! Thank you for protecting us and defeating that monstrous Orc lord! We owe our lives to you and your wives."

Yuan nodded, a humble smile gracing his lips. "We just did what was necessary to protect our home from this common threat; there is no need to thank us."

Amidst the celebration, Anna, Grace, Lily, and Emma stood by Yuan's side, their eyes filled with admiration and pride. Anna turned to Yuan, her voice full of gratitude. "You were amazing out there, my dear. I'm so proud of you."

Yuan looked at his two mothers, his elder sister, and his lover, feeling a surge of love and warmth. "I couldn't have done it without all of you. Your support and love give me the strength to face any challenge."

The townspeople continued to express their gratitude, shaking hands with Yuan and his wives, offering words of praise and thanks. The atmosphere was electrifying, a shared moment of triumph and unity.

As the cheers echoed into the night, Yuan couldn't help but reflect on the journey that led him to this point. He knew that more challenges would come.
