The wise man returns

“You can't concentrate your strength in one place for what I'm thinking about. I'll go back and tell you the details. Just hold on until then. ”

“... you might not be able to come back? It's dangerous there. ”

A low voice comes from Elia, who lowers her head.

Her reflection on the artifact shivers like a tear in an instant.

“This may be the last time we see each other, and then...”

“Elijah, didn't you promise us last time? ”

Balin tells the story in a gentle tone. It was the story of her face when she came back crying after defeating the Emperor.

“Then you must have said, Don't try to solve everything by yourself. You and Ruby Tower... will follow. ”

“... suck. ”

Elijah takes a short breath. A clear tear comes out of her blue eyes and flows down her cheek.

“That's why I told you everything. Competition in the Eclipse, the ability of entrants. And the identity of the darkness here. ”

“... Hehe. Ugh... yeah. ”

Elijah sniffed as if she was about to burst into tears.

But in the midst of her emotional support, she listens to Balin.

Valine remembers Elia at first sight, smiling calmly.

There was a huge gap between Elias back then and now.

If only the first Elijah had withered under Clyden.

Now she was a giant leaf tree that was spreading its branches and growing.

‘I was lacking in attention at the time. I've been denouncing this tremendous amount of timber for lack of talent. ’

Balin reaches out for the artifact's screen. My fingers stroked the shape of Manat.

“But now that you've come and cried like that, will I be able to trust you and discuss it? ”

“Hehe! Ugh! But... but!! ”

You might not be able to come back. Elijah wipes off her elongated tears, unable to bring out the hind horse.

“Please, don't worry. But when you're done with work, do you want to give me that much credit? ”

“... Master, you look great. Teacher, you're amazing. ”

“Yes, something like that. Hahaha.”

She rubs her face against Elia's head, rubbing it against her arms. She bursts into laughter.

After the atmosphere has been refreshed for a moment, Elijah says the answer he thought about what he said earlier.

“Then I can't do it. We have to work harder so we don't fall behind Sapphire Tower. ”

“Please.”

Balin smiles and gives a encouraging remark.

Elijah opens his mouth as if he doesn't know what you're talking about.

“Please. Master Valine is also the Master of the Ruby Tower, but of course we have to work together. ”

“Oops…”

Balin scratches his back head with a shivering look.

I didn't think he would be involved in the effort as well.

“But don't be too nervous because it's true that you have the best advantage. ”

“Advantage?”

Elijah tilts his head.

Now that Sapphire Tower has eight classes of Grand Wizard, Ruby Tower is that far behind.

I didn't know what was good for me.

To Elia, who looks pretty, Valine adds with a killer smile.

“Then you have the most to gain. I've done the copy casting, and I've done the artifact, and I've practiced my physical skills. In the future, I'll be handing over the know-how myself, so of course it's in your best interest. Don't you think?”

“... I admit it. You're right. ”

Elijah shrugs at the indisputable proof.

The fact that there is a real Balin has changed Ruby Tower like this, and that alone proves its power.

Now that Balin's turn is over, it's time for Elijah to report his performance to Balin.

She talked about the progress of the three conditions that she had checked earlier.

“First of all, for Assignment 1... I have not yet climbed the walls of Class 4. I'm sorry, Master. ”

“No, you're not. It's an unusual talent to be in class 4 right now. You can take your time. ”

“Thank you. It looks like you're banging on the wall, so I'm going to try a little harder. ”

After finishing speaking, Elijah smiles. It was a beautiful smile like when I cried.

Assignment 2 is about creating more than Class B artifacts with a magician.

Elia showed off her blinking boots instead of answering.

“If you use it consecutively, the Mana Sun burns down, so the limit is once every two minutes. Other than that, you can continue to use it as long as Mana is supplied. ”

“What about the magic of increasing and decreasing size? Don't forget to think about who wears the boots. ”

“Here.”

Elijah shakes his hand and repeats that the size of his boots has increased and decreased.

Balin gladly applauded. I was proud that I had created enough Class B artifacts.

However, the third task did not show any results as opposed to the previous two.

Elijah's complaint was that no matter how much he studied, he couldn't craft the status spear.

“I'm sorry. Mixing up all the magic...”

“No, I get it. ”

Balin comforts depressed Elia and thinks about a bottle of vampire blood.

I could send it right away to start the experiment, but that's why this material was so valuable.

“I don't have any results either. But the way things are getting a little more detailed, so let's do it together when we get back. ”

“… yes! ”

In response to the positive answer, Elijah replied with a bright look in his eyes.

Now that both sides have finished reporting, it's time to split up. Just before that, Balin asked me one question in passing tone.

“Hey, did Andropos and Palias leave? ”

“Yes, just like I said the other day. ”

In Elia's eyes, I asked a question for a moment.

“What's the matter? I don't think so... have you arrived yet? We should have joined by now. ”

“Well, there's no news yet. ”

With negative news, Elijah opens his mouth with an embarrassing expression.

“That can't be... They must have moved long before the trials started...”

The eyes of Balin, who was looking at her face, lit up. It didn't seem like he was lying.

Balin purposely hides her suspicions about Andropos from Elias.

I didn't want to give her another worry.

However, I had to ask questions separately.

“Did you notice anything strange on your way there? Sneaking around, something about not looking good. ”

“There was no such thing. You walked like you were hanging out. ”

“What about Palias?”

“Palias left screaming at the whales that he didn't want to go. Did you want to be with Millia? Obviously, it's hard to train them, so they're trying to escape. ”

Elijah, a distressed face, smiles deeply for a moment.

Meanwhile, Balin nods at the reaction as expected.

‘Looks like they left without a hitch... so they're on their way.' ’

“Okay, I'll call you later. ”

“Yes."

Elijah laughs and ends communication with you.

Balin, who was left alone, closed his eyes and thought:

Andropos didn't seem particularly betrayed, so I should focus on meeting him and talking to him first.

But apart from that, it was clear that other investigations had to be thorough.

Especially the Duke of Rudens! I had to make sure of that.

* * *

That night, Balin stepped out and headed somewhere other than Duke Rudens, unlike what he had thought.

The Holy See is headed for Balin!

First, we decided to find out what their relationship was with the Demon Prince or whether they were working with the Duke of Rudens.

"Being Duke of Rudens is more dangerous than I ever imagined. ’

The fast-moving Balin smiles unconsciously.

Unlike the Duke of Abel, the Duke of Rudens has found one unknown.

It was better to investigate there as far back as possible, after at least a few more rounds.

‘There's time until the 8th or 4th Precinct. ’

Then the only thing left is the author of Kratan, who has already apprehended the Duke of Abel and is very close to finding out about the number of North Tra Empires.

Thus, there was only one spot where Balin could turn his eyes.

‘The Holy See... The Holy See of the Night is a little different. ’

Balin leaps up the high wall without hesitation.

It was a huge 90-degree wall, but it was so easily breached in front of the livestock law.

“Still better than Duke Abel. ”

Balin, who was on the spire near the entrance, slowly looked around the inside view of the Holy See.

Unlike during the day, the Pope's church was very quiet at night.

I can see paladins praying at the most, or guarding the temple.

Not unlike the Duke of Abel, who was filled with high ranking unaccounted for.

However, Balin curls up rather than releasing his guard.

Where he goes is the Central Chapel of the Holy See.

It was a residence for important successors, including the Pope.

I thought you said the name of the cathedral of origin? That's funny. "

The cathedral of origin. It is the source of all the Rayan Faith.

It was a ridiculous name for a wizard named Balin.

‘In my past life, I don't know what all the ruins look like, but I can finally see what they look like. ’

The moving Balin casts a few layers of magic to aid in the immersion of her body.

Opacification as well as motion blocking and sound blocking. All sorts of magic, such as manana blockade.

‘All right, let's go. ’

After checking the readiness several times, Balin finally starts to move inward.

As you get closer to your destination, you can see the paladins and priests' defenses getting stronger.

Unlike the entrance or the vicinity, sharp paladins slowly appeared as if they were about to draw their swords.

‘You have a protective shield here, too, with divine power. Is this the system that triggered the crash alarm? ’

The system itself was very good. But Valine had a weapon that went beyond that.

‘Chuckle.’

The moment he moves his legs without a sound, he suddenly reaches the other side of the barrier.

This was one of the benefits of rising levels of livestock methods.

The current level of the method was closer to three than two, thanks to the skill gained by using it almost every day.

Did you see more than 80 percent of the skills you saw before? You'll be level 3 in the next day. ’

Yesterday's experience with the Duke of Abel contributed immensely to the law of the land as well as the occult.

Using these two abilities together, skill level really grew like bamboo after raining.

This is what's happened since then. A visible wall of impurities could easily be breached by matter.

"It's a good thing, but somehow I feel like a ghost..."

After crossing the Divine Boundary, Balin revisited his palate and pondered the abilities of his abilities.

Seeing that the stealth and the method of livestock go up together, it seemed that the two abilities would soon merge into one.

‘At least the highest level should be merged after filming. ’

If Balin is right, the limits of a new ability fused and manifested depend on the level of abilities.

The combined power of Level 5 is higher than the combined power of Level 1.

‘In that sense, the sword of all time was very lucky. Combined with the highest level of Soldier Sword. If it weren't for that, it wouldn't be a legend, it would be down... "

I didn't think I'd have to refrain from using livestock to some extent.

Balin takes a deep breath and looks carefully at the perimeter.

Not many, but one of them was the most elite of the elite.

It seems that even the hard-to-see sodmaster feels more than three, so more so than the Duke of Abel, never less.

"The Pope's abode... the Pope's wife... hmm? ’

Balin's gaze shifts for a long time and catches something.

A familiar face. Nemrod's chancellor is headed inside the cathedral.

Balin's eyes narrowed as he watched that expression.

Something's fishy. ’

The first time I saw him, Valine, who had already met him, quickly found out that Minister Nemrod cared about his surroundings.

If that's how the official greetings will move tonight, at least it won't be light.

Balin's instinctive instincts somehow caught up with Nemrod's successor.

Thank you for reading. That's all for today.

I'd like to thank you again today for seeing your readers in the review area.

By the way, I think it's time to start using the web. Hmm. Hmm.

I'm not using an app on my mobile, I'm just using a mobile version of Joara. That might be a little better.

Let me give you a little piece of advice, and I'm going to step aside for tomorrow's entertainment.

P.S. is getting bigger and bigger. I didn't think of that. Let's think deeply about this point. Best regards,
