On the other side in Vincent’s house, Vincent looked busy fixing his gun artifact. He liked the idea Alex given him before about upgrading the reload time of the bullets. In order to do that, Vincent already got an idea to add more bars for the bullets. He needed to make his artifact bigger too. In addition, he wanted to upgrade the maximum capacity of the capsule. This way could be useful to store more mana. He used the remaining jade crystals he had.Jade crystal was kind of a mineral stone that could absorb mana from surrounding.

As soon as Saliery and Stella arrived in the inn, both of them take rest. Saliery enjoyed his time by sitting on a bench outside the inn. He began to humming with soothing voice. Mephisto joined Saliery while listening to him. For Stella, she took a nap inside the inn.“Mephy, what do you think about your mother?” Saliery asked.Mephisto could not really understand what Saliery was trying to say. Mephy could only look at him dumbfounded.“You know, I have been keeping up this feeling until now. But I don’t want to make it bloom yet. I need to be a worthy man first. Just like the Hero Alex.” Saliery started to daydream about something. He wished that one day when the time has come, he could show his worthy side so that Stella could really fall for him.CAWCAW! Mephisto seemed like it supported Saliery.“Thanks, child! Let’s do our best to protect her!” Saliery looked optimistic.Some hours have passed and Stella woke up feeling a

Alex bought a lot until some of the shops were about to run out their stocks. Some of the food sellers looked so happy because their products were about to sold out soon and they could get lots of money. However, there were also some sellers who thought differently.“Excuse me, sir Hero. Please pardon my rudeness.” One of the seller approached Alex. It seemed like he got something bothering in his mind.“Yes, sir. What can I help you?” Alex stopped his shopping tour.“I’m sorry I overheard your conversation before with your bard friend and elf girl. Are you really planning to give all of those food to that crazy guy?” The seller looked dissatisfied.“Well, yeah. Is there something wrong?” Alex frowned.“Hmm. Sir Hero, I don’t want to stop you doing anything you want but to give excessive care t

Alex gave Vincent some food in case he did not have breakfast before.“Vin, I’m going back to the Kingdom soon.” Alex tried to open up a topic.There was quite a silence until Vincent decided to respond.“Oh, ok.” Vincent answered clear and short.

Doubt
The scorching sun was reaching its peak, but the horse-drawn carriage ride on which Alex and his three friends had not yet arrived at the Nousant Kingdom.Throughout the trip, Alex could not sleep even though he had tried many times. Every time he was almost asleep, the pebbles in the road that made the carriage sway made him wake again."We've traveled from the village to the Nousant Kingdom many times. But it's still tiring." Salieri blurts out amidst the silence.Alex lowered the cloth that had been covering his face from the sun's reflection. He stares at Salieri with narrowed eyes—indeed, even though he's inside the train, the sun's rays still sting his skin."Are you tired?" he asked.Salieri nods his leaning head. Salieri's face shows both sleepiness and fatigue. Even under his eyes just had formed eye bags."I feel more sleepy," Alex said.Stella watched her two male friends without saying anything else. He placed both hands on his bent knees, hugging himself. But just like Al

I am Worthy
Alex and Salieri's sharp gazes turned to Stella in unison. Give a direct reprimand to the woman."Hey, Stella. Don't say that," Alex scolded.Stella shrugged her shoulders indifferently. The corners of his lips curved downwards."I'm just asking for facts," Stella said before putting her face back into her folded hands.Alex's ragged breaths were heard. "Don't listen to Stella. I'm sure I'll take you to the palace," she answered firmly. "No one can doubt you, Vincent. It's only natural that you need to work on your talents again.""Because, no one immediately becomes an expert," said Salieri. "Oh, by the way, may I know how you came to have a talent for creating magic items?"Vincent was a bit surprised that Salieri asked that. Because honestly no one wants to know about his life."You... want to know?" Vincent looked uneasy.Without hesitation, Salieri nods. "Of course. I'll listen.""Actually ... this

After traveling for a long time and having passed through obstacles from bandits, finally Alex and his three friends arrived at Nousant Kingdom.The sky was quite dark when they arrived at Nousant Kingdom, even the village looked deserted.However, from the point where the horse-drawn carriage stopped, there were four royal guards approaching them. It was confirmed that it was due to an order from King Romeos. Alex and his three friends accepted their escort even though Stella didn't look like she really needed it."Alex, are you sure?" asked Vincent when he and Alex had gotten off the stagecoach."Hmm?" Alex turned and nodded. "Sure. We've arrived, why hesitate?"Stella overhears their conversation. His cynical laugh was heard to steal the attention of Vincent and Alex."Hey, you can leave if you don't want to, but do you remember how quiet the village is? You'll have to face the bandits without support from Alex." Stella delibe
