Malise awoke from William's shocking show when there was a knock at the door. The figure behind the door was exactly who William suspected.It was Lawrence. He was the richest man William had ever met. He was arrogant, powerful, and authoritative.William stood up and met Malise at the door. William held out his hand and Lawrence returned the small gesture with equal courtesy. It was truly astonishing to see a mage, perhaps second rank in power, shaking the hand of an apprentice.William immediately motioned for him to take one of the seats inside, and he sat across from him.When Malise and William sat down, Lawrence began to speak. "So this is the blacksmith you have been raving about?" He looked at Malise with a smile.Malise smiled positively and nodded. "Yes, and I invited you because his demands exceeded mine.""Let's see what his demands are." Meanwhile, he took the scrolls Malise handed him and examined them. "Heh." A small chuckle involuntarily escaped his mouth.Lawrence soo

William felt as if something unknown was waking him up. He was so afraid of this unknown that he looked around as soon as he woke up, but the real fear began as soon as he woke up.William awoke in the middle of nowhere. His surroundings were not filled with chairs, pillows, tables, and books, as he remembered, but just nothing. There was no light. As far as he could feel, he raised his hands and tried to look, but he couldn't see. 'How did I get here?'William felt like he was stepping on the ground. His body wasn't as bad as he remembered, it was in perfect shape right now.[All-Seeing Eye] He wanted to look deeper into his hands, but for the first time, this ability betrayed him. There was nothing but nothingness around him, but a deep feeling, an emotion, or perhaps a creature he could not explain, exerted an unbearable pressure on every cell of his body, terrifying him to the core, to say the least.He didn't know how much time had passed, but suddenly it felt like several years.

Although the mission was difficult for some, it was easy enough for others to feel like their time was being wasted. Still, it took about five minutes for someone to accept the mission.Ekey came up to William with a young man beside him. "Congratulations, it didn't take you long to find someone to accept your mission."The young mage was surprised at first to see that William was only an apprentice, but he immediately introduced himself. "I am Delano Drach, I would like to discuss your mission in more detail."William thought the young man looked even younger than he was. He could even call him a bit childish, but the waves of mana that occasionally appeared on the young man's face and some parts of his body gave clues that he was using a technique for changing appearance. In fact, this young man could be a senile old man, but none of that mattered to William."Hello, I'm William. I am a Wanderer Mage. I will be an official mage and I need protection for a year. I don't know of any e

The storm continued to grow for a while. This was not a simple storm, a simple storm would not even be significant enough to damage a single tree leaf of the White City. It was a storm of spiritual energy and elements. Soon, the elements and impure spiritual energy that could not reach William, who had lost its way, began to sweep the streets of the White City.No one seemed to care about this storm, for soon a pure white light emanated from the White Tower. The safest way to trap such irregular and impure energies, one might even say dirty energies, was pure spiritual energy.As expected, the light emanating from the top of the White Tower was pure spiritual energy, and it suddenly spread all over the White City. Nothing was harmed by this pure spiritual energy that covered every house, and every cobblestone. Except for people, of course. Dozens of mages suddenly emerged from the White Tower. Perhaps more emerged from most of the houses in the inner ring and spread throughout the whi

When William opened his eyes, he felt as if he had been asleep for a year. His body had last been in the fetal position and when he opened his eyes he was in the same position.'I feel refreshed.' William sat up and yawned deeply. Every muscle looked as if it had been removed, lubricated and reattached. He felt much more energetic and agile.William began to examine his own body. How many hours had my real body been nourished? The concept of time was a problematic issue in the Sea of Consciousness, but as far as he could tell, the washing phase of his body took quite a long time.William noticed that his body had not changed much, just a little more permeable. He could now feel the spiritual energy around him more easily, manipulate it more easily, and especially see the Fire and Wind Element particles more easily. In fact, the Fire and Wind elements were begging to enter William's body, even though he did not want them to. If these two elements were a fly, William's body was like can
