Lenny checked, and according to the Satan system, if he were able to cover the full 100 kiloters of the Desert Walk, then he would be able to beco a Deep Demon rank being.
The thought of it made Lenny chuckle lightly.
Even moving a step made him completely light out.
There was no way that he was going to complete the challenge anyti soon.
He would have to grind one step at a ti to get there.
Maybe next ti he would try out a lower level that still exerts so pressure but is just enough to promote his growth, but definitely not now.
Lenny checked. According to the Satan System, he had slept for an entire day.
The thought of this sent shivers down his spine.
He was an assassin. To lose his guard like that was a recipe for death.
Thankfully, nothing happened.
There was also the good fortune that the Sisters of Fate did not seek to take advantage of this opportunity and hurt him.
All he could do now was ensure that such a thing never happened again.
Lenny's clothes had been soaked with sweat from the events of the previous night.
He was once a gladiator and was long used to the very ssed-up sll.
But since he could choose, he naturally picked to change clothes.
After which, he stood to his feet.
He staggered a little. Apparently, his body still felt the effects of the strong strain he had put it through in the desert.
He stretched, and his bones made creaking sounds to emphasize their release.
He found that he was both hungry and thirsty.
Rembering that Captain Crimson remained waiting at the door, he opened it.
"Good morning, Mr. Lenny," Captain Crimson greeted.
"Good morning to you too," Lenny nodded, "is sothing the matter?"
"No! Not at all, sir."
He shook his head. "I just thought to inform you that we are at the first stop on our journey. We are at Town 'Skull Head' ho territory of Red Skull Magic School."
"Oh!" Lenny nodded. "Okay then. I'll be right out."
Captain Crimson nodded as he hurried on.
Lenny could see that he was very excited.
Also, he noticed that the captain's n were carrying a big box out of the ship at a corner.
This was the sa box he had intentionally left behind.
So of the crew mbers used this as an opportunity to steal one or two magic stones from the chest.
Lenny was not surprised by this.
After all, it was a normal occurrence for mbers of a society to behave like their leaders.
Like captain, like crew mbers.
With what Lenny had heard about these magic stones, it was easy to guess that Captain Crimson most likely intended to trade them for branded human skins.
After all, gold was useless if it could not be converted into money.
It was still early in the morning. The sun was already peeking off the horizon.
Even the dry sll of the desert was still fresh and cool from the night before.
It was really a good morning.
Lenny ca to the edge of the ship and looked out.
To his absolute surprise, this town was more functional than he thought.
There were buildings; most were made from wood, but the structures were very functional.
The houses were made in such a way that they allowed for the broad road in between.
He could see people below going about their daily business.
So were trading goods; others were trading food.
So traded body parts of mutated beasts, and so others traded what Lenny could tell were actually mutated plants.
So others transported wild mutated rats in iron cages.
These cages were obviously not normal.
Lenny could see rune symbols on them.
This was a town. It also served as a port, as there were ships anchored at the jetty at different points.
Lenny took in the sight of this busy town.
The people were not many, but then again, they were not few either.
To see humans walking about so freely was always an incredible sight.
However, Lenny knew that they could not even parade the outside world like this.
Even for those who had magic, there was always the risk of being captured by demons for food or by devils.
It was only in magical territories like these that humans were able to survive.
Another question plagued Lenny.
At the ti he left Spring Town for the very first ti, there was the issue of devils surrounding the place.
This was the sa thing for Waterfall City.
So he decided to ask one of the crew mbers.
And what he learned was quite interesting.
It turned out that the parts in which human beings mostly lived were very far from Demon residence.
For reasons no one knew, devils only flocked to demon cities or towns.
For these reasons, human pirates developed different shipping routes across the vast dry lands to keep themselves safe.
Although there was always the problem of demon poachers that hunted humans and other pirates that also hunted humans,
It never stopped the cockroach existence that was called humanity from giving up on survival.
Even Demons agreed that they were a stubborn existence.
This town was really interesting to see, and Lenny was quite curious about it.
However, there was nothing he wanted more at the mont than to increase his power.
"Are we going into the town?" Perseus asked, his intonation and eyes radiating the zeal to explore.
Lenny did not mind this.
But he would really rather eat so demon at to quench his hunger and cultivate peace.
However, the mont he turned towards his cabin, he got an alert for a mission.
Lenny paused in his steps. He suddenly turned back toward the town with an eerie smile on his face...
