The Great Mage Returns After 4000 Years

Preparation, and Training # 3

16/156

Frey soon looked around. Ispaniola was a small, secluded city. However, there was no glimpse of rural or urban relaxation in people's faces.

The reason is a big conjecture.

‘It is adjacent to the mountain range. Sometimes monsters come down. ’

There was a glimpse in the faces of the guards, and there were plenty of mercenaries. Thanks to it, the whole city was a disturbing atmosphere, but there was no tension like walking on the ice.

Unlike dangerous geographical locations, safety is evidence of certainty.

First of all, I bought food and drinking water. There are plenty of subspace pockets, so there are more than half of them.

‘This could last three weeks. ’

Then the place to go was a bar. Frey went inside looking for one of the bars near the city square.

Many mercenaries were good bars. And yet it wasn't loud. The mercenaries drank quietly and sometimes gave and received a few words.

It was also unusual that the interior was so dark even in the middle of the day.

Frey looks around once and then goes to the counter.

“Welcome. ”

The bald man, who seemed to be the owner of the shop, said loudly. Fray sat down and then said,

“A beer. And a simple yogi. ”

“What if it's a joke?”

“Bread is good and meat is good. Anything you can fill the ship with. ”

The owner nodded and brought out some food after a while. What came out of the yogurt was bread and an edible sausage. Frey drank a sip of beer and then looked at the owner and said,

“Are you familiar with the Ispania Mountains? ”

“A mercenary?”

Frey nods. Then the owner looked at Frey and smiled.

“Hmm. It seems to me that you've only just started working as a mercenary. Wrong?”

Technically incorrect, but Frey shrugs without answering.

Then the owner shook his head.

“I know everything. Dress up in waterproof armor and put a new knife on your waist, and you'll feel confident as if you can beat up even a dragon. That's not wrong. Losing is a privilege for young people. ”

Young man. And lose.

Isn't that what you forgot in the past that you don't remember anymore?

“But I got the wrong number. The Ispania Mountains are not a good place to run with a little adventure. ”

“It's called Monster Heaven. I know that much. ”

“No, you don't know anything. ”

The owner chewed and spoke roughly. When Frey looked with suspicious eyes, he shook his head.

“Excuse me. I had a son. I was just a guest of my age. Ever since I was a kid, I've been saying that being a mercenary is a dream. There's no such thing as an infertile. ”

Frey looked at the owner and asked.

“Your son is now..... ”

“Dead. In the Ispania Mountains. It's been about two years now. ”

“I'm sorry.”

He sighed and spoke.

“I would have taken over the escort of the woman who took the herb. She barely came back alive. ”

The owner looked through Frey once and said,

“I won't say anything bad, so just go back. I'm not projecting my son to a guest. However, even the mercenaries who say Nanda Ginda should know that place is called the Hellfire Mountains. ”

The owner thought Frey would understand if he said this. He sincerely hoped that this young man would not lose his life at a young age.

But Frey quietly emptied the beer cup and then said,

“I want to know about the monsters that appear in the mountains. ”

“Phew. You don't intend to bend? ”

“I have a reason to go. ”

Frey said in a calm voice. If the owner shook his head for more than this, he was going to get information elsewhere.

The owner scratches his head.

“Don't resent me later. ”

“Why would I resent my host? ”

“A. Floating. You slept well today. ”

The owner said again with a mouthful.

“Monster paradise. As the nickname suggests, there are all the stars in the mountains. From Goblins, Ogres, Trolls to Drake, Wyvern and Griffon, I assure you, there will be no monsters in the neighborhood. ”

The owner decided to kick him out because he was scared, which made his face look nasty.

“That's not all. From a two-headed owl to a white troll with skin, to a nasty goblin who knows how to make extreme poison. There are also mutations in line that are unlikely to come out of other places. ”

The owner explained as hard as he could. To be honest, he felt that this was meaningless. Nevertheless, I couldn't quite explain it because I received Frey's calm eyes.

“I see.”

Frey, who heard all the explanations, nodded and stood up. And it was a moment to make a calculation.

The owner shakes his head.

“I won't take the money. If you come back safely, we'll take it. ”

Frey pauses to pull out his hand and smiles.

“It's not the right personality for a business. ”

“My wife made me sit in her ear. Well, it doesn't matter what the family says. ”

Frey stood up from his seat. I still had the money, but I didn't want to refuse the owner's favor.

“I've eaten well. Especially when the sausage hit my mouth. ”

“Strange. There was a lot of dead bodies in my shop, except for beer. ”

The owner said with a smile.

“Your face. I'll remember. Be sure to come alive. Until then, we'll bake more delicious sausages. ”

“I look forward to it.”

When Frey tried to turn around, the owner said as he passed by.

“Oh, I've been seeing dead bodies in the mountains lately. ”

“Is this the work of a monster? ”

“No. He says there's a trace of the lesion. ”

Trace of the barricade. Frey quickly understood the owner's words.

“Someone is killing people near the mountains? ”

“Yes. Some of the best mercenaries have already suffered. I don't know if it's one or several, but those murderers...

You must have some skill. ”

“Has the body been discovered recently? ”

“He said so.”

The owner's face became heavy. I am thinking of my son.

“The guards are investigating in their own way, but nothing is revealed. As far as I'm concerned, the mercenaries hired a few times, but it didn't work. I don't know what you're doing, but I can't get out of the mountain range, so the city's response is cool. ”

You don't have to poke the hive on purpose. In the first place, we're in no danger.

‘Are you looking for something in the mountains? ’

Or wait for someone.

Frey nods with that thought.

“I'll be careful.”

Frey left the store, and soon left Ispaniola.

Then a huge boulevard appeared.

"Mac said that a day's walk would bring the entrance to the mountain range. ’

It leads to the mountains, so I thought it would be unmanageable, but it has a modest road shape.

Frey walks on a wild-feeling boulevard and falls into thought.

The Dungeon of Schuheiser is most likely not in the form of a Dungeon.

"A mountain that rises in a position to pierce the clouds. Beautiful lake at the top. And a small island in the lake. ’

What Schuhijer said before was a clue. I know where you're talking about.

The mountain called Drake Mountain. ’

The lake at the top is probably a volcanic lake. We'll find a small island there.

The problem is that the way to get there is not worth it.

If it is an entry, it can still be sustained by land now. However, if you cross the hips, the level of monsters increases. You must reach a minimum of 6 Stars in order to be able to deal with them freely.

Of course, there is no big worry. Natural manas are evenly distributed in the Ispania Mountains. Setting up and training near the mountain ranges will bring the landscape up.

It'll take about a month.

You've arrived.

Frey looked ahead. A new lush forest was unfolded. This lush forest will literally lead to the top of the mountain. And there must be a hundred of these mountains around.

In other words, this was the beginning of the Ispania Mountains.

‘From now on. ’

Frey goes into the forest with his hands clasped.

1.

Frey wanted to focus solely on performing.

‘I decided it was a month. ’

In fact, it looks like it too.

Apart from physiological activities, you will only have to spend a day doing meals. A skilled sorcerer is a distressing force, but it was nothing to do with Frey, who had already endured 4,000 years.

The most important thing is to search for a place to study.

And the place must meet two conditions.

‘Be relatively safe. And I think Mana would be a particularly more focused place,’

Searching for a place is worth your time.

Frey slowly began to look around. It was not gentle. There were many monsters that bothered to cling to the tinnitus of Monster Heaven.

Of course, it was only as small as the beginning of the mountain range.

After two days, Frey was able to find where he wanted to be.

It was a spectacular place with a large waterfall.

It feels classical after a retreat. Of course, I don't intend to meditate on that waterfall with my head. What Frey noticed was the cave at the back of the waterfall.

Man is a place where monsters can barely ride. It was dark inside the waterfall, but it can be illuminated by magic, so it's not a big deal.

‘It's going to be okay here. ’

The best thing is that it is a place to satisfy two of the ceremonies simultaneously.

The cave was untouched and an easy place to get drinking water or food. Because it's fast enough to keep up with the food I brought.

“Good.”

Frey deliberately makes a sound out of his mouth, and talks with all his heart.

His chosen training was a struggle.

The way Isabelle was so curious, Fray didn't tell her until the end, was because the risk was really great.

First of all, gather Mana. A smile touched Frey's face, which embraced the mana in the mountains.

‘What a peaceful manna. ’

He had also trained in the Ispania Mountains in the past. Though the memory is a little blurry, it seems that Mana has become darker than then.

Shh.

Manna gathers in Frey's body.

The manna, gathered by the body, converges to the Manaroom beneath the navel. Frey leaves very little room and collects the Mana to the maximum.

Shh.

The sun rises, the sun goes down.

And when the sun came up again, Frey realized that he had gathered all the minimum Mana he needed.

A different feeling of satiety surrounded the whole body.

The sensation Manna felt when she was full was a kind of orgasm.

“Hoo · · · · · ·. ”

Step one is complete. He opens his eyes and immediately takes the drinking water out of his pocket and chokes. I couldn't replenish moisture for a day and my neck seemed to burn.

I wasn't hungry, but this is the brain tricking into mana's fullness. He forcefully squeezed the jerky in his mouth, then swallowed it and immediately asked for sleep.

I woke up again after about five hours of sleep. I slept longer than I thought.

‘It's going to be hard from now on, so I have to take a final break. ’

He immediately sat down and took a deep breath.

Gathering Mana is only a preparatory step.

Frey divided Manar in two. It was easy to explain, but it was a very hard job.

Once in place, Mana tends to stick together. But Frey skilfully drew a line in the middle of Manarum.

Fifties. Fifties.

Mana was divided into exact proportions.

I am ready to start the training of the struggle.

After ‘· · · · · ·. ’

From now on, it is accompanied by some pain.

Frey makes the fire attribute visible in the Mana on the right. On the contrary, the mana on the left makes the water's properties noticeable.

Kugu-ku

“ · · · · · ·. ”

Manas, who had the attributes of the theatre, soon held each other back. Frey frowns with mild pain in his navel.

‘It's been a long time since I've been in control. ’

This was the practice of struggle.

Manarum is now a battlefield, not just a warehouse, and Manas in each camp have begun a small war.

Even if you sell one eye at a time, Mana can cause a runaway, damaging Manarum, and in the worst case, losing your life.

While observing the struggle, Frey gave little help if one side wanted to be empowered. The balance is then rebalanced, and the Mana is refined one more layer.

It also greatly improves the reception space and durability of the Manarum while the Manas are beating mentally.

“ · · · · · ·. ”

Fray's forehead began to sweat.
