cube, but other shapes could be used if enough runes were available. Over the past decade, he had changed the drawings he put on the runes to strengthen them.

There were plenty of limits to these runes, though.

For one, you couldn’t add runes to the structure after they had been activated. This meant that they were pretty much useless in an actual fight since predicting the enemy’s movements wasn’t fully possible. They were only useful in a fight if they were deployed on a much larger scale to make sure the enemy was trapped the first time. For this reason, he used millions of the mythical blank runes he had bought.

He had run out of the blood needed for his experiments a while ago, and every few weeks he had to hunt the creatures that were ranked SSS back on Nobody Sect’s private planet for the beast’s blood to continue experimenting. When he tried replacing the blood with an immortal beast’s blood on the blank rune, hoping that would strengthen the result, the blank rune disintegrated into nothing.

As John was creating another mythical space sealing rune, he suddenly heard his system go off.

Ding!

The noise caught him off guard because he knew there was only one skill left and it still had another six months until it was finished. It surprised him so much that he dropped the rune he was working on.

He opened up the system to check what happened and was shocked beyond belief.

Chapter 13: The Finished Task

In front of John were three pop-up boxes from the system. Two of them were large squares which were side-by-side, and the third box was underneath them with flashing words in the centre.

In the left box was a map and on the right was a picture of mountains, rivers, and a large forest which did not match up with the map.

John studied the words in the small box.

Analysis complete!

It all came back to him.

Back at the auction house, he bought a map which was said to be from an eon ago and could possibly lead to transcending.

After he won the map in the auction, he threw it inside his Storage Space and the system scanned it. It then began comparing the terrain of all the other maps it had scanned to the old map’s contents.

But this all happened over thirty years ago!

No wonder I couldn’t think of why the system would go off. It started this task thirty-two years ago and I was more concerned about fighting those class one enforcers the Adventurers’ Guild sent after me.

Why did it take so long? Why does the map on the right look so different?

John noticed an arrow on the right side of the map and tapped it twice, turning it into a world map.

He still couldn’t recognise the planet, so he pressed the arrow again to turn it into the 3D universal map.

The planet itself was located at the very most centre of the universe! It was almost as if the universe itself was created around this planet.

Taking note of the location, he motioned to close the pop-up box as he wasn’t going to do anything until after he made sure Kelly became an immortal. However, as he did so, he noticed some writing on the aged map and he recognised it!

The origin language! The bounty guild leader said it was the first language of the human race.

John retrieved his bounty guild badge and compared a few letters, and while they were not the same, it was close enough to say it was the same language.

In six months’ time, after Kelly becomes an immortal, I guess I’m going on an adventure again.

As he finished thinking, he heard the door open and quickly put away the badge. When he turned around, he saw an angry Sarah glaring at him, arms crossed.

“What?” John asked.

“I didn’t say anything all this time because I thought Kelly was too young and she needed to focus on her training and studies,” Sarah answered, “but now, even I think you’ve gone too far!”

John opened his mouth to speak, but Sarah stopped him by smacking his chest with her hand as she scowled.

“The family of the boy who was interested in Kelly disappeared last night and I know it was you!” she said in a hushed voice in an attempt to keep others from hearing.

“Since we came to this village, the boys interested in Kelly wouldn’t try to make anything of it because they feared you. Some of the families coming to live here have sons who didn’t know about you, but they have always disappeared before they could make a move!

“This is like the fiftieth time already! What do you do with them? I know you don’t kill them!”

“How do you know I don’t kill them?” John asked.

“So you admit you got rid of them?” Sarah half-shouted.

“Oh, so you wanted me to ask that question, then confess I did something else? You’re either getting trickier, or I’m slipping.” John sighed before continuing. “They’re in the other kingdom with new identities, memories, and the like.”

“So anybody who thinks about Kelly as a love interest is suddenly kidnapped, brainwashed, and moved by you? Am I missing anything?” Sarah asked.

“I always give them a bit of money, that’s how generous I am.” John smiled.

“That’s not the point! Do you want Kelly to live in isolation, separated from the rest of the world, forced to never find anybody to love?” Sarah became angrier the more she thought about it.

“Not really,” John answered. “It’s just that none of the boys on this planet are good enough. If they want to even think about dating my daughter, they’ve got to be stronger than me so I know she’ll be safe. That’s the minimum requirement!”

Sarah gawked at John’s comment. It took her a while before she realised John wasn’t kidding. “Are you crazy? Only the transcendents are stronger than you at this point! That’s basically telling me you don’t want your daughter to
