Triggering the Main Storyline [Saintess of Oran City]

"Tsk tsk, the magic-type monsters in Novice Village are even weaker than the physical ones," Su Yu shook his head.

In reality, if Baron Wilson's Fireball had hit Su Yu even once, he would have been instantly killed.

But unfortunately, the Baron's magic couldn't hit him, giving off a "very weak" impression.

Su Yu walked forward and flipped over Baron Wilson's corpse.

Baron Wilson was a quest BOSS, and there was no "first kill" concept, so he only dropped two items:

Cloth boots Full Moon Boots Lv8 (Excellent), and a skill scroll Fireball (Normal).

Although the drops were fewer, Su Yu could use both items.

He could learn Fireball immediately, and Full Moon Boots required him to be level 8 to equip.

After obtaining the skill scroll, Su Yu chose to learn it directly and spent 1100 Psionic Coins to upgrade Fireball to Rare quality.

Fireball (Rare): Unleashes a fireball to attack a target, dealing 360% Spell Power fire damage and having a 40% chance to inflict the target with the Burn status. Casting time is 0.5 seconds, and mana cost is 15.

Burn: Takes 15 fire damage per second for 4 seconds.

Fireball's single-target damage is similar to Lightning Arrow.

If facing a high-health BOSS, Fireball's Burn effect would deal even more damage.

However, Su Yu was currently one-shotting everything, making Lightning Arrow more practical.

After learning Fireball, Su Yu walked out of the Baron's study.

Tina was standing outside the door, waiting anxiously.

She heard the sounds of magic impacts disappear from the study, knowing that the victor had been decided inside.

However, she didn't dare to go in and check, only standing outside, nervously fiddling with the corners of her clothes.

Seeing that her Nemesis had walked out unharmed, Tina let out a long sigh of relief and patted her chest, "Praise the gods, Nemesis, you're alive! What a relief!"

"What, you didn't want me to be alive?" Su Yu teased.

"Of course not."

"Alright!" Su Yu ruffled Tina's hair. "Go to the Warrior's Guild and call Quinn over. There's a lot of evidence of the Baron's crimes in the manor, so have her come and sort through it."

"Okay!" Tina replied excitedly.

Su Yu sent Tina away from the Baron's manor.

Then, he returned to the study on the second floor to search thoroughly.

With his extensive gaming experience, Su Yu easily found two crucial pieces of evidence of the Baron's crimes—a letter and the Baron's diary.

Since Tina hadn't returned yet, Su Yu, bored, commanded the manor's guards and servants to find all the wealth the Baron had plundered and the women he had illegally detained.

Unfortunately, the plundered wealth was quest-related, and Su Yu couldn't keep it for himself.

Half an hour later, Inspector Quinn arrived late with people from the Warrior's Guild.

Quinn was an cadre dispatched from the Oran City Warrior's Guild headquarters for field training. She was fair-skinned, beautiful, and had an exceptional demeanor.

In the study on the second floor, looking at Baron Wilson's charred corpse, which had been dead for a long time, Quinn looked incredulous. "Adventurer, you killed Baron Wilson?!"

Su Yu didn't speak, only nodded.

"Do you know what a grave crime it is to kill a noble?"

"Take a look at this first." Su Yu handed the two pieces of evidence he found to Quinn.

Quinn took the two pieces of evidence and read their contents in detail.

The letter in the evidence was written by the Baron when he was communicating with the northern rebels and hadn't had time to destroy it.

With this letter alone, the Empire could sentence Baron Wilson to treason! Even nobles faced the death penalty for it! They could even have their entire clan executed!

Therefore, Su Yu not only committed no crime by killing Baron Wilson but had also made a great contribution!

As for the Baron's diary...

The diary recorded a large number of plans the Baron had against Quinn. The shamefulness of the various methods described was immense, opening Su Yu's eyes even as someone who had been through a lot.

After reading the diary's contents, Quinn's face turned red with anger (and shame).

She drew her long sword, bent down, and stabbed the already dead Baron a few more times. Only then did her resentment slightly lessen.

"Thank you very much for your help, Adventurer! Thank you for ridding the Empire of this scum!" Quinn said solemnly.

Then, she took out two gilded medals and handed them to Su Yu. "This is your reward! Please accept it!"

Su Yu's quest log updated.

"Ding! Your quest Tina's Resistance is complete!"

"As you have exceeded the quest requirements, the quest rewards have been increased!"

"Quest Rewards: Medal of Honor (Excellent) x2, Experience Points x1000."

Medal of Honor (Excellent)

Synopsis: Rewards granted by major guilds to those with outstanding contributions.

Instructions: You can use this medal to exchange for a skill scroll of (Excellent) quality that matches your level and profession at the Mage Guild.

Because Su Yu skipped ahead and completed the entire questline, the rewards for quest stages 6-19 no longer exist. However, the reward for the final stage, the [Medal of Honor], was increased from one to two.

Su Yu was very satisfied!

With a smile, he accepted the two [Medal of Honor] and said to Quinn, "Then I won't disturb you any further. I'll be taking my leave!"

"Goodbye! Adventurer!" Quinn waved goodbye to Su Yu.

Baron Wilson's crimes had been confirmed, and there was indeed no need for Su Yu here; the Warrior Guild could handle the aftermath.

But just as Su Yu turned around, preparing to leave, a clear voice called out from behind him, "Nemesis, wait a moment!"

The person speaking was Tina.

"Tina, is there something else?" Su Yu turned back to look at the beautiful young woman.

"It's like this," Tina said, her face slightly flushed, as she walked up to Su Yu and shyly whispered, "I'll be going to the Warrior Guild to test my talent later. If my talent is qualified, I'll be heading to Oran City with Sister Quinn."

"Oh, and then?"

"If you pass through Oran City in the future, could you come and see me? I'll be alone in Oran City with no family or friends, and I'm a bit scared."

Tina said softly, handing Su Yu the receipt for the Baron's debt as a token.

Hearing this, Su Yu realized that Tina had a follow-up quest.

However, Su Yu didn't want to accept this quest.

This was because the main storyline he was about to unlock, [Glory of the Broom Empire], if he guessed correctly, would definitely take place in the capital of the Broom Empire—Broom City.

Oran City was located southwest of the Broom Empire. Although it was also a large city, it was over a thousand kilometers away from the capital!

Completing the main storyline was more important.

But just as Su Yu was about to politely refuse.

"Ding! You have triggered the main storyline [Saintess of Oran City 0/100]. Do you accept?"

Su Yu: "..."

A main storyline!

It was another main storyline!

And it was the infamous [Saintess of Oran City] from his previous life!

Su Yu's pupils constricted.

"Tina, I..."

"Don't refuse me." Tina stepped forward and gave Su Yu a big hug.

During the hug, she slipped the receipt into the pocket of Su Yu's jacket.

"Remember to visit me!"

After saying that, Tina quickly leaped away like a startled fawn, disappearing from Su Yu's sight.

"This..." Su Yu took out the receipt from his pocket, a wry smile on his face.

"I probably can't refuse now."

"Ding! You have accepted the main storyline [Saintess of Oran City]. Please proceed to Broom Empire - Oran City to begin the main storyline."
