Galaxy's First Ruler

Chapter 147: Hidden Quest



Chapter 147: Hidden Quest

As Aldrich's fingers came in contact with the last reward, the data related to it materialized in front of him.

[

Item: Basandere's Confession

Type: Scroll

Rank: Rare

Durability: 50

Minimum Usage Condition: Bassendre's Killer

Description: A Scroll containing Basandere's dying words

Warning: This Item will only be presented once, even if the Dreamer were to raid the same Dungeon again

Do you want to equip the Item?

...]

Aldrich narrowed his eyes at the strange, seeing the abnormal Item. He knew many Dreamers got scroll-based Items containing Ancient Sayings, but he didn't know the actual format of such rewards, as it wasn't mentioned in the many books and scrolls of House Venomous Rose.

Aldrich thought for a second whether to accept the Item or not, as he could see no direct profit in equipping it. But the warning made him think a hundred times about letting go of this opportunity. Aldrich clenched his teeth and cautiously let out his reply.

"Yes."

The tiny wormhole crumbled, leaving behind a scroll in Aldrich's hand. He also saw Sha, now finished with her meal, approaching him with high expectations in her eyes. Aldrich slowly opened the scroll and watched the words materializing over it in black eligible ink.

--:--

My Heartily Beloved Cid,

I have sinned. Yes, I have sinned by loving you.

I remember when I came into existence by the grace of our Lord and how my eyes fell on your mighty presence. My destiny was to be with my husband, whom you know by the name Basajaun, your subject. Yet, the strings of my heart quivered when you addressed me by my name.

Oh! How can I forget the touch of your fingers when.

--:--

"WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?!"

Aldrich couldn't believe his eyes as he skimmed through the contents of the scroll and let out a furious shout. The entire scroll was filled with words of love and regret about how the female Crawler couldn't be with the Boss Crawler at her dying moment. He couldn't help but think of the Giant Crawler, charging towards him up the slope, and crumbled the scroll.

"Daddy"

"What?"

As Aldrich was about to throw it, Sha wrapped her hands around Aldrich's wrist. Her eyes had become watery, and there was a deep pain over her face. Aldrich was about to reprimand her when a notification popped up in front of him.

Hidden Quest: Hand over Basandere's confession to the Boss Crawler

]

"NO!"

Aldrich exclaimed and his face became so ugly that even Sha let go of his wrist and distanced herself from him.

He had already died once because of his first Hidden Quest. And he hated them, despite their high risk and high reward nature. Even though Aldrich had planned to face the Boss in the future, he wanted it to be on his terms and as his choice.

Not because of a mandatory Quest.

"Sha!"

Aldrich's eyes brimmed with realization and anger, and he called out Sha's name. He raised the scroll towards her and said through his clenched teeth.

"Sha, eat it."

"Daddy No."

Aldrich, taken aback by this refusal, took a step towards Sha, making her take a step back, too.

"What do you mean by 'No'?"

"I I full."

"Humph! Don't lie to me, you were just drooling when I touched it before this fucking thing came into my hands."

Aldrich took several steps towards Sha, who kept looking at the scroll and Aldrich's face.

"Sha, Don't run!"

Aldrich dashed towards Sha, but she had already run away from him. Two black blurs kept appearing and vanishing within the flattened ruins. Aldrich was like an animal chasing an even faster and crazier beast than him. But without the Skill Change, Aldrich was no match for the Shadow Homunculus' speed and the Items at its disposal.

Just as Aldrich was about to approach her, two bat-like wings opened up on Sha's back and she flew up towards the sky.

"Sha! Come down, Now."

But Sha didn't even turn back to look at him and kept going up as if running away from something.

"You! Huh, Don't blame me for doing this Absolute Pull!"

Aldrich pointed his right hand towards Sha and it shined with a blue-green glow. Sha, though fast with the Wings of Bat-Lord, hadn't gone out of the Rumok's range and the sudden jerk pulled her back as if there was a rope tied to her body.

"Ahhhhh!"

Sha screamed out loud as she came falling along with the ripple in space towards Aldrich. Just as she was about to hit him, Aldrich wrapped his hands around her body and brought her to the ground. Sha's perky breasts got squeezed in struggle and an evil laugh came upon Aldrich's face.

"Haha! Open your mouth!"

"NOooo Ugh!"

As Aldrich brought the Scroll close to her mouth, Sha clenched her teeth shut. But it didn't take Aldrich's experienced hands to put his fingers in her mouth and open it up. Aldrich saw the small opening and stuffed the scroll deep in her mouth. And Sha's claw-like nails dug dip into his body, as she almost gagged from the scroll stuck in her throat.

Gulppp!!!

Aldrich heard the awaited gulping sound and let go of the teary Sha. He waited for the Hidden Quest to change in some form, thinking that the Scroll technically didn't exist anymore.

Aldrich's hand slowly raised to cover his face, seeing no change whatsoever. Behind him, Sha stood up crying because of the ordeal and stared at Aldrich who was facepalming himself.

Sniff!

"That was love letter. Daddy so mean"

Aldrich took a deep breath and saw the portal to the next Plaza that had opened up in the place of the vanished rewards. Before going in, he had to take care of this problem related to the penalty by any means possible. But Sha hadn't finished raising a ruckus.

Sniff!

"Daddy Daddy a pervert."

Aldrich snapped his head towards her and looked at her pouting face.

"What did you call me?!"
