Fake Professor, Misunderstood As Strong - Chapter 214

Chapter 214: Uervar Flower Area… Part-1.
‘Now this is what we call enjoying life to the fullest…’

Jareth brought out a big chair from his space ring and put it on the giant sword laid down on it by tilting the chairs back.

The luxurious chair even had a leg rest on it so Jareth could lean on it comfortably.

He gave the work of controlling the giant sword and making it fly to his three disciples and started to enjoy juice as the refreshing wind breeze brushed past his face.

Although Mark and others telekinesis skills aren’t strong enough to fly as fast as Jareth, they can still make it work somehow.

Not only will this help the group travel faster than planes, it will also be a training experience for Mark and the other two.

‘What a genius idea… I might be the best teacher out there, I think…’

Jareth sipped the juice from the glass and enjoyed himself to the fullest while his disciples worked hard for him. (Disclaimer: No child labor was done in the making of this chapter…)

‘In the past month I was so busy with research I had no time to relax at all…’

Jareth came back from the Abyss Altar and got busy with more work right after that.

He got a massive team of researchers, basically for free, and they started working for him with great enthusiasm.

The chance to work with a grade 1 mage is not something you get every day after all; it’s like winning a lottery, and the pay is also very good.

Moreover, what Jareth is trying to research is an Era changing level of technology.

Although Jareth didn’t tell them everything, they could feel that Jareth is working on a technology that has the potential to change the entire world forever.

The invention of a working stable wormhole is not something that can be considered a small invention; it has the power to shake the entire world and make everyone acknowledge Jareth’s abilities.

If it were an ordinary world, Jareth would have opened a company that would specialize in creating wormholes.

It would have earned him immense wealth, with which he could have spent his whole life spending money like water.

But now that he knows that this world is already on the verge of destruction, the money doesn’t matter much, thus he doesn’t have the motivation to open a company.

Instead, he will just create the wormhole and leave this place fast, and the technology will disappear along with this world.

‘Well, if I survived, I can still carry on this legacy with me…’

Outer space is filled with mystery; the sea of endless miasma is so vast that there’s no end to it in sight, and Jareth can only hope that it doesn’t actually cover the entire universe.

If there’s someplace out there where he can go and live a normal life, then he will find it extremely lucky.

‘Or I will just go to some random empty space and will die a slow death while floating in space like an asteroid or something…’

As the game developers never really confirmed it themselves, Jareth has no idea what lies outside the sea of endless miasma.

It can be an empty void, it can be more miasma, or it can be some bizarre existence like null, nothingness, or chaos.

‘Well, my main motive is to not let the sea of miasma capture my soul; aside from that, nothing else matters much…’

Just when Jareth was enjoying himself, the mountain range finally ended and a massive grassland appeared.

Looking at the massive fields of grassland spread over several dozens of kilometers, Jareth spoke in a calm voice.

“This is the famous ‘Purple Earth Area’ known far and wide for the unique purple flowers that bloom here at night every day….”

“These purple flowers here are unique; they are called Uervar Lotus…”

Jareth glanced at the trio and taught them what he knew about the lore of this area.

“Uervar Seceno was a world-famous hero who hailed from a small village in this area… According to history books, he was born a millennia after the era of the First King ended…”

“And he was one of the most powerful people to ever exist in the long annals of history, but his tale is said to be that of great tragedy…”

“He saved millions of people from disasters and used his magic to help humanity prosper…”

“He’s said to be the one who saved humanity from the attacks of the Orc Necromancer that had slaughtered thousands of people and destroyed massive cities…”

“But even though he saved others, he couldn’t save himself; his friends betrayed him, his lover ran away with someone else, and his own children stabbed him to death in sleep…”

“And then his corpse didn’t even receive a proper funeral; it was hung up by the villagers whom he protected with his life, and they ended up considering him a traitor in the end…”

“It is said that his corpse rotted away and his bones were later used to create some powerful artifacts…”

“A tale of tragedy and a tale that had a bad ending… The Uervar flowers represent ‘Tragedy’, ‘Mourning’, ‘Betrayal’ and can also be considered a sign of ‘Unwavering Faith’…”

“The hero Uervar’s faith never wavered even till the end, and he thought of saving people till the end…”

“It is said that he had dark purple hair just like these flowers…”

Jareth glanced at the flowers and spoke in a vague tone.

“You can say that he was a very distant relative of my ancestors, actually…”

As eras pass and centuries go by, family names change, and people forget their ancestry over time.

But Jareth remembers that the developers once personally confirmed it that Uervar was related to Jareth Blaze, the third-rate villain who appears in the prologue of the game.

The trio were quite surprised after hearing Jareth’s words.

They didn’t expect that Jareth was actually related by blood to people from legends and myths.

“But how do you know all this… I don’t remember the history teacher ever telling us about it in class…”

Jareth just shrugged his shoulders at that question and replied to Mark with a vague tone,

“I found a dungeon once that was filled with records on history that is lost to time… Unfortunately, that dungeon was burned down when I was fighting…”

Mark rolled his eyes at those words.

‘He must have used so wide area type magic, and the entire dungeon would have been leveled down along with the records being burned to the crisp…’

Mark knows Jareth quite well; he knows that whenever Jareth uses magic in battle, his magic destroys everything in the vicinity as if nothing existed there in the first place.

So, in his opinion, Jareth must have forgotten about those records for a second in battle, and he ended up destroying everything only to realize that he had destroyed the records too accidently along with the enemy.

“Uh, perhaps you should hold back a bit more sometimes…”

Jareth was a bit confused when Mark suddenly gave that weird advice to him out of nowhere, but as he was busy thinking about game lore, he ignored it.

‘There should be a powerful grade-1 boss monster a few kilometers deep somewhere… Strange; I can’t detect it’s presence; has it left the area?’

Before their journey started, Reynald had advised Mark to tell Jareth about a powerful beast in this area, but Jareth already knew about all that from the start.

He already knew what difficulties he would need to face when going to the Elven Empire, so he was already prepared for it.

In the original game timeline, Allen traverses this area with the help of Nathan and defeats the giant serpent lord here with the power of love and friendship… cough! I mean, he defeats it with magic.

Nathan was Allen’s biggest supporter in the original timeline, but now that he’s stuck in the death cage, Allen can’t dream of crossing this area so easily.

He will need to rely on some extra heavy plot armor if he really wants to go to the elven empire in his current weak state.

‘Well, I don’t think he will be going to the Elven Empire for quite some time right now, though… After all, he’s busy scoring favorability points with various heroines…’

Jareth shook his head at the thought of that guy. The only reason Jareth hasn’t dealt with Allen as of yet is because he doesn’t have the power to face the heavenly punishment right now.

If you kill Allen, the heavens will definitely get angry and react; at that point, Jareth will end up exactly like Konda.

Jareth doesn’t have the power to resist the heavenly punishment if it falls upon him, and just like Konda, he will be completely erased from existence along with his soul and will.

‘The best way to win a game that puts you at a disadvantage from the start is to never play that game in the first place and make your way around it…’

Jareth directly ignored that trouble magnet, Allen, and focused on his goals.

This way he didn’t get in trouble with the protagonist and didn’t get targeted by the heavenly luck until now.

“Okay, it’s daytime right now, so you can land on this grassland… Let’s rest here for now; we will travel at night because we can’t stay on the grassland when the Uervar flowers are in full bloom at night…”

The Uervar flowers are said to be able to carry the hatred of the dead and the evil wrath of tortured souls; thus, it’s not a good idea to stay beside them or touch those flowers with bare hands.

These kinds of flowers have the power to poison your mana, and they can even do mental attacks when you touch them.

At Jareth’s order, Mark and the others made the giant sword land on the ground, and they lit a bonfire to rest for a while.
