Even though the bird led them to the treasure, it was not a good journey. The bird did not stop even once, maintaining its speed and flying freely because it could not be detected by anyone or any creature.After fifteen days, the duo was tired and tired of flying. It wasn't a problem because Gento had made this journey before, but William was very bored. Flying at the same speed, neither too fast nor too slow, in a specific and known direction was boring.That's why the return journey took a whole month at the bird's speed. If William had a watch on his wrist, he could bet it was a full month. Because it was evening when they left, and it was evening again when they reached the place where the treasure was.After a few laps around the entrance of the 'treasure,' the bird landed on a small ledge."It will open now," Gento spoke. He knew how the bird behaved and opened the illusion on the door.Slowly, the expected scene took place. Along with the fist mark left by William, a small roc
William saw the hinges of two doors. He laughed and spoke loudly."Treasure!" He walked over to the hinges took a hammer from his dimensional bag and struck them from underneath. The top hinge came off with a snap. He hit the bottom hinge in the same way and the left door came completely loose from where it was attached.Smiling, William touched the door and threw it into his ring before it fell. 'It was worth all the suffering just for this!' He then did the same with the other door and no longer had to worry about the darkness. Behind the door where William was, the sunlight was shining and the view was clear.This was a classic mage tower, but it could easily be understood to belong to a powerful mage. The powerful illusion array on the door, and even the doors themselves, explained this.The part where William stood was the rocky part that was supposed to be the first floor and the main hall, but since the tower had collapsed, it was covered with rocks and debris everywhere.'Is t
William thought aloud. "If two saints were just guarding a door, the people behind it must be more majestic, right?" William hadn't even reached the platinum level yet. He didn't even have gold-level techniques. That's why even the platinum level seemed like a long shot to him.William carefully touched the door and pushed it forward. "Good~" The annoying bird on his shoulder seemed to be telling him to be careful in a low voice.This time, William opened the door carefully, not afraid of the bird's voice, and wanted to take a quick look inside. However, the moment he felt the unbelievable amount of death aura on his face, he ran with all his might and appeared at the campground outside. Then, the Death Aura emerged from the entrance of the ruins, only slightly slower than William. First, it spread out a bit, and then half of it flew towards the ground and half towards the sky.The amount of Death Aura coming from the inside was not normal. William knew that if he was exposed to this
Yan approached William carelessly and put his hand on William's head."Hmm? What? Oh? Too bad? Huh? Nice?" He examined William's soul for a long time.William could not withstand this examination. Completely naked(soul), he let Yan examine him."You have an unbelievable secret engraved in your soul. Even I can't see it... It's strange... But on top of that, you're damn untalented. Even the most ordinary soldier in my army was more talented than you. Even your talent as a mage is mediocre. Either way, you don't deserve a ring from anyone in this room. But you are incredibly strong for your level. A beautiful bloodline, very beautiful. It has incredible potential. Tell me, isn't it hard to drink liters of blood every day?" Yan talked non-stop. He spoke without pausing for a second, as if his mouth had been forcibly closed for a long time and was now being released."No Senior, I use this now." William waved his hand and took a blood crystal out of his ring.Yan approached and examined t
William had never felt that his thoughts could be so complicated. Even though he was a person who had a hard time making decisions, he might eventually manage to make a decision, but he felt like he had to hold the stick at both ends. That's why he kept going over the same thought in his mind, trying to look at it from different angles, but he knew that no matter what he did, he couldn't avoid getting shit on his hands.William held his head with both hands and lay down on the grass behind him. He looked again at the sun, which was trying its best to light up the whole world. "Even though you know that these people might harm you one day, you continue to light the world."He shook his head as he lay there. "There is no need to give the sun a personality.""Are these unknown people, gods, or creatures that Yan mentioned really evil?""What if people like Yan and Sun are the real evil?"William shook his head again. It was as if he was banishing the thoughts from his mind like drops of
Fabian arrived exactly three days later, and he was not alone. Next to him were Agast, Mia, and eight other first-rank mages that William did not know. This would be considered a strong group in most regions.As they flew through the sky, they all seemed to take advantage of Fabian's speed. They dived like a meteorite as soon as they saw William. Then they slowed down a few feet from the ground and landed quietly.When William first saw them, he was lying down, thinking about how to improve the techniques he had found. As soon as he saw them, he stood up and got ready.Fabian looked at William first and then narrowed his eyes at the doorless, cave-like entrance."There are very powerful corpses inside," Fabian spoke calmly."Yes, they are all corpses. "I personally approved it," William replied. Then he started to go inside. Meanwhile, he started to tell how he found the ruin and how he opened the door."It all began with the appearance of a bird. Farno was the first person to tell us
William returned to the White City two weeks later. He added to his treasury by killing a few rank-one creatures that bothered him along the way. That's why he was two days later than expected. As soon as he returned to the White City, he went to his house and dug a small secret compartment under the bed in the back bedroom. After putting the items in the rings he bought into his ring, he buried the remaining rings here. Maybe he could sell them or give them to someone in the future. William then went to the study he had created for himself and wrote a report on a small table. He didn't add many details other than what he had told Fabian. He simply wrote a lie that matched Fabian's suspicions about the bird's disappearance. Fabian said that he had felt a spirit that had just disappeared, and William hid his perfect lie by saying that the bird had disappeared after entering the warrior in the third row on the right. After writing the report, he went to the White Tower and gave it to
William remembered Malise's words. "Is this place run by Lawrence's uncle who kidnapped his mother? If so, fuck my luck."William put the notebook in his dimensional bag and started walking towards the city. 'This explains why Lawrence and Malise have been missing for so long.'William passed the identity check without any problems as he sadly entered the city. The security of this city was only slightly inferior to the White City. Although the walls and the surrounding area were heavily guarded, it seemed that there were not enough guards for the inner city.William cursed as soon as he entered the city. "Damn!"Unable to bear it, he swore out loud. It happened as he had predicted. The small wall at the entrance of the city and the two posters there gave sad news. They were wanted posters. William approached and looked at the drawing of Lawrence with his head in a turban. 'The person who drew it did a good job.'Malise's wanted poster was a little difficult to understand. Someone who
