The King’s Palace was even bigger than the Mercenary Guild. It was so large inside that it completely exceeded what Xie Feng had anticipated.
Because of the peaceful atmosphere of the place, Xie Feng was sure that he was the first player to enter the King’s Palace.
After walking in a straight line for what seemed like an eternity, a beautiful maiden appeared before Xie Feng’s eyes.
The maiden had straight light brown hair, brown eyes that glowed like two sparks of light in the darkness. Her face had a touch of innocence and a gentle smile shaped her face.
Any player would no doubt think: as expected from an NPC, she really is beautiful.
However, what Xie Feng thought was: ‘Mmm, as expected. My Yaoyao is more beautiful than her’.
The maiden smiled gently and bowed slightly: “It is a pleasure for me to meet you. My name is Xiao Xiao. I have already been informed of your arrival. Please follow me this way”.
Xie Feng cleared his throat and no changes in his expression that would give away his inner thoughts nodded with a smile: Xiao Xiao is a beautiful name, thank you very much for your kindness.
The maiden suddenly blushed furiously and turned quickly, beginning to lead the way.
[Ding!…. Favorable impression from Xiao Xiao to you +40]
Xie Feng almost fell to the ground when he heard that.
He stared dazedly at the maiden’s back as he thought: ‘What the hell? I didn’t say anything! Sorry girl, but I’m a one-woman man’.
While making strange gestures and having strange thoughts, Xie Feng made the decision not to say any more nice words to this innocent young maiden. It would be a problem if she fell in love with him.
Even if she is an NPC, playing with feelings is not right.
He follows the maiden for several minutes, walks around several places and sees several soldiers with a powerful aura around them.
Soon, Xiao Xiao took Xie Feng to a simple looking wooden door, which surprised him a little, as he was expecting a pair of huge golden doors, showing the majesty of a king.
“Your Majesty, a brave hero from another world fulfilled the necessary requirement to help Your Majesty with his problem”. Xiao Xiao said respectfully as she waited outside the door.
Xie Feng did not have to wait even 5 seconds before a man’s voice was heard from inside the room: “Thank you for guiding him here. Let him in, you can leave and continue your duties”.
The maiden, Xiao Xiao bowed again to Xie Feng and after looking at his face again, she left quickly as if she were running away from someone.
Seeing this, Xie Feng’s mouth contracted several times as he cursed his current heavenly look.
He looked at the door for a moment and then opened it without hesitation.
What greeted Xie Feng was a simple room. Inside, there was a wooden desk, two chairs and a bookcase with many old books carefully stacked next to each other.
Sitting in the chair behind the desk was a middle-aged man with several white hairs on his head. The middle-aged man looked at Xie Feng with a smile, not at all arrogant or proud like a king and greeted him: “A pleasure to meet you, traveler from another world, or as you call yourselves, players. My name is Hu Yi and as you know, I am the King of Ciudad Eminentis, also known as King of the North. Although I honestly prefer to be called by my name”.
Xie Feng doesn’t know how many times he has been surprised since he entered this place. The king rests in a simple room, has no arrogant or proud attitude and even speaks with moderate respect.
Still, Xie Feng is not a normal person either.
“Thank you for your kind words, King Hu Yi”. Say Xie Feng with a polite smile.
Hearing his words, King Hu Yi’s eyes light up slightly and he looked at Xie Feng with appreciation.
By calling him King Hu Yi, Xie Feng is not only treating the king with the basic respect due to a king. He is also fulfilling King Hu Yi’s wish to be called by his name.
[Ding!…. Favorable impression of the King of Eminentis City towards you +10]
King Hu Yi waved his hand to indicate to Xie Feng not to stand and take a seat. After Xie Feng sat in the other chair, King Hu Yi continued to speak: “Really a smart young man. Commendable”.
Suddenly, King Hu Yi frowned and said with a disappointed look: “What a pity…. your current level is too low, you will not be able to complete this mission. Come back when your level reaches 20.”
Although this unique quest didn’t have a level requirement, but the prestige requirement should closely represent the level requirement….Because of this, the King Hu Yi presumed that for one to have over one hundred prestige, one must at least be at level twenty.
But King Hu Yi never expected an anomaly like Xie Feng to appear being level 13, with more than a hundred prestige points.
Xie Feng also frowned as this is something he did not expect. He never thought that instead of a mission, all he would get out of it would be a waste of time.
Still, he is not one to give up easily. So instead of leaving, he put his brain to work.
Suddenly, a brilliant idea appeared in his mind.
Without saying anything, he opened his status window and showed his name, level, points of fame and something that only belongs to him….. title.
King Hu Yi looked at him in confusion but then looked at his status window. At first the king’s expression did not change in the slightest, however, when he saw his total fame points, his eyes opened slightly. When he saw the title ….
King Hu Yi stood up and said with disbelief: “Creator of Myths!”
Suddenly, King Hu Yi looked at Xie Feng with a slight murderous intent in his eyes.
Seeing this, Xie Feng immediately stood up and jumped backwards maintaining a distance at which he felt more comfortable while looking at King Hu Yi intently.
The two looked at each other for five seconds. A drop of sweat slowly crept up Xie Feng’s forehead as he tried to think of a way out while thinking about why King Hu Yi would suddenly react in such a way.
Suddenly, King Hu Yi’s face filled with a smile and he began to laugh as he looked at Xie Feng with a look of praise: “Hahaha! Young hero, you are indeed the holder of the title Creator of Myths. I did not expect that during my lifetime I would be able to see a legend”.
Xie Feng watched King Hu Yi closely for a few seconds more but not noticing any malicious intent on his part, he finally took a secretly relieved breath and then relaxed.
Seeing that he was relaxing his posture again, King Hu Yi sat down again and invited Xie Feng to sit down again. After hesitating for a split second, undetectable to King Hu Yi, Xie Feng approached the chair and sat down.
“I am sorry for my previous behavior, it was rude of me”. King Hu Yi apologized with a genuine expession.
Xie Feng shook his head to indicate that there is nothing to apologize for, but he still asked: “No need to apologize, King Hu Yi. However, I am curious. Why did you suddenly react that way because of the title Creator of Myths?”.
King Hu Yi sighed and relaxed in his seat: “It is natural that you think that title is just a normal title. But you are quite wrong, Shiva”.
Xie Feng realized that King Hu Yi referred to him by name, more closely and not as a king to a subject.
He did not say anything and remained silent, waiting for the following words from King Hu Yi
Indeed, King Hu Yi continued: “This is a legend that has existed for several millennia on the Adastrian Continent. The legend says that he who possesses the title Creator of Myths will be the one who puts an end to the war between demons and the human race”.
Xie Feng frowned slightly, since this information was not told to him by the Guardian of the Beginner’s Village. Therefore, he could not help but ask: “Who was the person who told this legend? After all, I don’t even belong to this world. Not to mention ending the war between two races, a single Emperor-grade beast will be a great challenge to me at this time”.
However, instead of an answer, the following words from King Hu Yi surprised Xie Feng even more.
“Apparently, you have already received a mission from the system in Beginner’s Village before you arrived at Eminentis City”.
System!?
How do NPCs know about the system!
Xie Feng was stupefied as he looked at King Hu Yi.
Although he was extremely surprised, his face did not change in the slightest, so King Hu Yi had no idea what Xie Feng was thinking.
