Chapter 352: The Grail (1)

—

She stood motionlessly amidst the vast expanse of the sky, dressed in a flowing belly dancer outfit of shimmering white, as the gentle, pastel-colored clouds surrounded her in the tranquil morning light.

Behind her, the pale and waning moon descended slowly towards the distant mountains, casting a soft glow on the woman's back. The moonlight highlighted her elegant chocolate curves and illuminated her short ash-white hair, which waved with the wind like feathers.

To the ordinary folks who hadn't seen her appear, she looked like she came out of the moon that was descending behind her.

Rumi Usagiyama, the Moon Rabbit, rested a hand on her waist as she had her head tilted and looked at Neji.

Neji smiled and waved at her. The girls beside him who were staring stunningly at the flying bunny, turned to look at him with questionable frowns.

"You are a lucky man. As expected of a King." said Ozymandias, smiling.

"Hey, who is that?"

Amongst the countless sentences and Ozymandias' one compliment, it was Quetzalcoatl's question that all shared.

"That woman?" Neji replied with a smile. "She is the love of my life."

One-fifth... no, one-sixth of them, anyway.

'A Goddess has appeared!' – was the general belief of the civilians of Uruk, and its nearby cities.

No, it wasn't just the civilians. Even the soldiers who participated in the war seemed to believe that rumor. Well, they were the initiator of the rumor to begin with.

The King has summoned a Goddess, despite his past history with divinities, so that he could protect his subjects. Uruk was in a state of partying right now.

Of course, none of them were wrong. Rumi was a Goddess in all but divinity. Neji didn't hate the rumor either—it was producing quite a bit of faith points, after all.

While Uruk celebrated, Neji sat on his throne and observed the quest he had completed.

[Main Objective – Defeat all three of the knights, in any way possible – has been completed!]

[Bonus Objective 1 – Defeat all three of the knights yourself – has been completed!!]

[Bonus Objective 2 – Save Uruk from its Destruction – has been completed!!]

He received 100 levels, along with the potions, from the first two objectives. That earned him the 24th Voidmancer Skill, as he reached [Level 2350].

[Void Sealing: The user is able to seal targets using void, making them completely nonexistent, unable to do any action or anything, trapped in the nothingness, where no one can feel their presence.]

That was a handy ability as of right now. Neji used it on the three Knights, and they were currently locked in a prison dungeon beneath this castle.

Neji was using it in moderation though, using a cage-type prison instead of a concealed cube. This made them stay conscious without access to any of their abilities. Otherwise, it wouldn't be a punishment if they weren't even conscious to know they were being punished.

The most interesting part of the quest was the last objective. It didn't specify the reward. That was rare, but that meant it could be something big. Sadly, it said it was by the Director, so it could be something that he couldn't use. Neji was excited anyway since Rumi was here now, and he could share it with him.
