Having acquired the Pigeon Blood Ruby, Tyler commenced planning his immediate goals.
In this realm of myriad unknowns, he must maintain a clear sense of direction to avoid losing himself.
First and foremost, Tyler is certain that he doesn't need to concern himself with the ultimate three tasks, as they are simply unattainable with his current abilities.
=====
Task 1: Kill the "Singular Demon God - The Unutterable Name";
Task 2: Make the "Singular Demon God - The Unutterable Name" dissolve the Abyssal Empire, or surrender unconditionally to the Alliance of Light;
(Note: If Task 2 is accomplished, Task 1 is considered fulfilled, regardless of completion.)
Task 3: Make the "Singular Demon God - The Unutterable Name" sincerely confess their love for you and agree to return to your original world (Earth) together;
(Note: If Task 3 is accomplished, Tasks 1 and 2 are considered fulfilled, regardless of completion.)
=====
Given that the difficulty level of this Prison Star world is deemed "Impossible," the "Singular Demon God - The Unutterable Name" would be at least at level "999," or perhaps even more despairingly, levels such as "9999" or "99999" could be within the realm of possibility.
No matter how formidable Tyler's knowledge of love psychology may be, it is simply impossible to "make a demon god fall in love with a mere ant."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs for the idea of dissolving the Abyssal Empire, that is nothing more than a pipe dream. Those who possess the capability to govern a nation are individuals of unparalleled astuteness. It is inconceivable that they would all be fools in positions of power, as depicted in anime and light s. Nor can one expect some divine intervention that suddenly diminishes the intelligence of those in authority, leading them to make decisions of diminished intellect.
Therefore, Tyler's current objective is to survive and gather as much information as possible about this world, while seeking out suitable means to enhance his own strength.
Although staying in Ira Village is an option, the rate of growth is too slow, information is severely limited, and there is the constant risk associated with "Elle." It could even disrupt his sleep at night.
Hence, Tyler decided to head towards the town.
The main concern about the town stems from the "Precognitive Death Scene" that Tyler witnessed.
Based on the future scene, Tyler knows that he will be killed in a certain town on the 15th of May, at 1:14 PM.
Considering this information, Tyler pondered for a moment.
(Today is the 12th of May, assuming I depart from Ira Village today, the only town I could reach within three days is Gudetown.)
(In other words, the most probable town where I find myself in the "death scene" is likely Gudetown...)
If he avoids Gudetown, according to the information Tyler acquired from the village chief, the neighboring town called Sunnytown would take about 10 days to reach.
Based on this calculation, Tyler would completely avoid the scenario of "appearing in a town on the 15th of May."
However, going to Sunnytown poses a problem, as it requires passing through Sandrift Gorge, where the rumored rock demon, the "Rock Shadow Demon," resides.
Considering that the Gudetown Cavalry has already attempted to subjugate it three times this year without success, Tyler decided to bypass Sandrift Gorge and take a longer route around the outskirts of the Sandrift Mountains.
As a result, Tyler will need to spend more than twice the time, but he believes it is worth it.
(This journey through the wilderness will serve as valuable training to enhance my strength.)
·
Two days later, Tyler arrived near the Sandrift Mountains in the vicinity of the Luca Forest.
If he continued westward, he would be able to see the allegedly ravaged Luca Village, while heading northeast through the Luca Forest would lead him to the Sandrift Mountains. By following the path around the Sandrift Mountains for another seven or eight days, he would finally reach the Sunnytown.
During these two days of wilderness exploration, Tyler successfully shot down a male pheasant, two pheasants, and an aged stag, accumulating a total of 100 occupation experience points. He was only 100 points away from reaching level 2 as a hunter.
However, what puzzled Tyler was that despite neither his combat occupation nor his production occupation leveling up, his status information underwent changes after waking up from a nap:
His maximum life energy increased by 10 points.
His maximum endurance increased by 6 points.
His maximum magic energy increased by 10 points.
Accompanying these numerical increases was a noticeable enhancement of his physical condition. Or rather, Tyler initially sensed the strengthening of his physical condition during his wilderness exploration, and once this enhancement reached a certain level, his status information followed suit.
(It seems that gaining experience and leveling up occupation rank is not the only way to become stronger.)
Tyler vaguely sensed that beneath his status information, there should be some concept of "attributes," but his level of the Divine Eye of Transcendence was currently too low to see them.
The system of this world truly is intricate and complex.
·
During his midday break, Tyler, sitting cross-legged, faintly felt the ground vibrating.
He pressed his ear against the ground and listened for a while, realizing that it seemed to be caused by some kind of creature, like a horse, running on the outskirts of the forest and approaching this side of the woods. It appeared to be a solitary rider.
To be safe, Tyler went to the edge of the forest and climbed a tree to observe from a distance.
He saw a silver-haired girl in a red and black cloak, galloping on a verdant grassy plain, resembling a meteor streaking across the earth in broad daylight.
Although Tyler couldn't discern the girl's appearance, the ethereal aura emanating from her was distinctly visible, rendering this scene so breathtakingly beautiful that it seemed like a painting from another realm.
However, as soon as Tyler caught a glimpse of the girl's basic information, this dreamlike sensation immediately vanished without a trace.

Viviana Scarlet; the Divine Heir of the Scarlet Family; 16 years old; Magic Swordsman - Level 51... The amount of information conveyed in a single glance was truly immense, causing Tyler to momentarily lose his focus.
However, there was one thing Tyler could ascertain without any hesitation - he had to hide as soon as possible. This was because he noticed the flaming emblem and the blazing stallion on the young girl's red and black cloak.
This emblem wasn't just on the cloak of the man who killed him in the "Precognitive Death Scene," but it was also engraved on the box containing the "Pigeon Blood Ruby - Phylia."
To Tyler, this emblem represented the "Emblem of Death"!
Suppressing the panic in his heart, Tyler quickly found the thickest canopy of a large tree and concealed himself within it. Just as he covered himself with branches and leaves, he felt the tree beneath his feet beginning to tilt, and then... he and the tree both fell to the ground.
"Hey, hunter, why are you running away?"
A hauntingly beautiful voice echoed from the front. Tyler, who had fallen heavily to the ground, was still disoriented, unable to discern his orientation. He thought he was experiencing an illusion - such a melodious voice didn't seem like something one could hear in the mortal realm.
Once Tyler regained some clarity, he suddenly noticed two slender silver longswords floating in the air on his left and right, their tips aimed at him. It was evident that they were meant to restrict his movements.
Fearful of making any sudden movements, Tyler cautiously lifted his head and saw the young girl who had been galloping on horseback moments ago now standing in front of him.
(How did she manage to cover a distance of two to three hundred meters in just a few seconds?)
"Hunter, why are you fleeing?" the girl inquired once again.
In the span of a single second, Tyler's mind raced at the speed of a hummingbird's wings flapping for an hour. Then, suddenly, he clutched his head and collapsed to the ground.
"M-Mercy, my lord! I... I have nothing more than these meager possessions. I beg you, spare me!" Tyler pleaded, presenting the pheasant and deer meat he had on him.
