"Lawrence, wake up!" Rudolf's voice was barely audible over the dozens of exploding spells.

Lawrence's eyes were squeezed shut. So much so that even the skin around his eyes was stretched. He was covered in dust and dirt. On the right side, there were dozens of broken and cut-earth walls. The water that came in contact with the earth wall turned the surrounding area into a swamp. A few trees, barely visible on the rocks, were completely burned except for their roots. The smoke from both the heated water and the burned wood combined to form a large fog.

"Hurry! We have to go! Nicolas is out of Grenscar!" The voice belonged to a woman. Although his eyes were closed, Lawrence recognized everyone's voice and heard what they were saying.

Thanks to Fanny, the surroundings were covered with an incredible amount of wind elements. Fanny, hiding her face, waited for a signal from Lawrence to escape. She could easily outrun everyone here except Nicolas.

Behind Rudolf, Lawrence and Fanny were ten

    The moment Rudolf saw the fire tornado behind him, he had already taken a communication device out of his dimensional bag and ordered all the mages around him to slowly retreat and gather at the shield.They could not escape such a powerful spell by running or even flying. All they could do was wait inside the shield, tire Nicolas out, and create a situation for an attack.As the flame tornado grew larger and larger, they heard a voice in front of them. "The tornado is getting bigger! You will be caught!"It was Mighty Windwalker Lennard's voice. He stepped forward and approached the fleeing group. Then he frowned and looked at the huge fire tornado.He waved his hand, and just like Nicolas, a huge wind element cyclone appeared in the sky. It soon turned into a tornado and began to move slowly but strongly towards the tornado created by Nicolas. At that moment, nearly twenty more official mages followed Lennard and gently mixed the water spells they had created with the tornado. Soon

    William fainted the moment he put the blood crystal in his mouth. It was as if billions of greedy cells in his body were competing with each other to eat the blood crystal. When his consciousness entered the Sea of Consciousness for a few seconds, he saw the little wolf's soul standing up and howling at his soul.His soul seemed unaware and uncaring.William's mind was suddenly filled with memories.He remembered experiencing such a scene before, but these scenes were like a dream. He could neither move nor interfere with anything. It's as if everything was happening outside of his control.William was back in the same wolf body. He was inside the genius wolf who created the Wind Blade ability. The scene was the same as the one he had left the last time. In front of him was a she-wolf's silver moon wolf with the same strength as him.The wolf with William inside approached the She-wolf's pack and was met with anger at first, but soon the opposing pack, seeing the pack behind it and af

    At Lawrence's command, the battlefield became chaotic. Meanwhile, Nicolas' men were attacking from four directions. Some mages avoided a major disaster by using the figurines Lawrence gave them to defend in all directions. It showed how important personal opinions could be in this situation.The creatures behind Nicolas attacked one by one, but they were all powerless against Nicolas' sword. With a single cut, the bodies of the official mage-level creatures were split in two, and the mana that supported their bodies was scattered into the air.Still, the creatures were numerous. This made it easier for Nicolas to make mistakes. One of Lennard's blows created a small gap in his shield. The Lightning Monarch did not miss the opportunity and dived into Nicolas' shield. Its two claws contained the combined power of dozens of lightning bolts. Incredible pain and shock gripped Nicolas at the impact of the claws.But Nicolas was not someone to be taken lightly. Lawrence could now understand

    Lennard looked at William in disbelief. He thought that William's unconscious body must have flown away by now. So he hoped to be free to fight Nicolas.He wanted to devote everything he had left to this battle, but now a problem arose. William was just an official mage. He wouldn't survive the bombardment of third-rank spells. So he wouldn't be able to fight at full strength because he thought he had to protect him.Furthermore, Nicolas' crazy laughter confirmed this. He was laughing because he couldn't understand what a weak ant-like William was doing.William shook his head. "I'm disappointed, Mr. Lennard."Lennard frowned but said nothing. William was right, he had warned them before."I will take this sword and never give it to you again. You do not deserve this sword." William's eyebrows were bent to the ground. It was an expression of great pity."Who are you, brat? What makes you think you can take this sword from my hand?" Nicolas was too great a man to be ignored. Being igno

    When William opened his eyes, he saw a familiar person beside him. She was sleeping in a sitting position by the small fire with her head between her legs. She looked too tired and injured to notice that William had woken up.William got up immediately and checked his body. After seeing that everything was in place and already healed, he called out to Malise but received no response.When he didn't get an answer from Malise, he laid her down where he had just laid down before and waited for her to heal after drinking to her a few potions. The wounds on her arms and chest were visibly healing. Apparently, she had been blown by the wind like William, but she had woken up and done something before. William saw that the exit was blocked by several rocks.William's last memory was of hitting his head against a hard object, but he could not remember what it was. Now he realized that this hard object was the rocks that Malise had placed at the entrance of the cave. Malise had closed it after

    In the city of Grenscar, thousands of corpses lay in Yellowsand Castle. Although most of these corpses were apprentices, the surrounding ruins revealed the extent of the war that had broken out at the beginning of the storm. Even thousands of innocent, ordinary people joined the massacre and became one of the corpses lying on the ground.This war, so great that the city of Grenscar would not forget it for decades, was thankfully over.With the storm still raging, the victorious side imposed a ban on leaving the city and activated all the city's defenses.Now Nicolas' reign was over. Although it is unknown whether Nicolas was dead or not, the Towers and the group called Pilgrims of the Desert that had captured the city were strong enough to defend the city, and the city's captured defenses were enough to keep Nicolas at bay.The second day brought happy news. Lennard had barely survived the storm and returned to the city of Grenscar. His followers, who had greeted his arrival with enth

    The next day, the storm slowly showed signs of abating. First of all, the elements began to decrease, and the power of the wind decreased accordingly. It was no problem for the second-rank mages to travel freely, but there was still danger for the first-rank mages. Lawrence and Doravoli decided to wait a little longer and left the cave on the eighth day when the storm had almost diminished to a slightly gusty wind.During this time, Lawrence tried to bond with the children as much as he could, but they rejected him as if he had murdered their mother. It was then that Doravoli's words relieved Lawrence of his sadness."Leave it to time. Of course, they will get used to it." Doravoli said, knowing that what he was saying was logical. The children might never forget the death of their mother and father, but they would get used to it.Unfortunately, that was the way of the time to deal with things.When they left the cave, they encountered a completely different kind of rocks. Most of the

    William walked with Malise. Since most of the big rocks were flattened, it was not difficult to find their way, and after 4 days they arrived at Grenscar. At first, William thought he should look for Doravoli, but after Malise's words, he decided to go to Grenscar."If you're telling the truth, everyone should be in Grenscar," Malise said this because William claimed that he had killed Nicolas."Are you questioning me? Of course, I killed him! You'll see when you get to Grenscar!" William flew ahead like a grumpy, unpleasant old man.At Grenscar they were both in for a surprise. Lawrence and Doravoli jumped on them and hugged them as soon as they appeared at the city gate.While Malise blushed with excitement, William was not happy at all. Because Doravoli decided to hug William."Hey! Stop rubbing your dirty beard on my belly!" Doravoli was just above William's belly button."You don't know how much I miss you, my dear friend! And don't call my beard dirty! "I care for them as if the

    Meeting Enid

    William didn't notice, but even his posture began to change. Now his chest was further forward and, most importantly, his nose was a little higher in the air. With his height, he began to look down on people.Worst of all, William didn't even realize it. Arrogance was slowly seeping into his blood, taking over his body without him wanting it. Since William was not aware of it for the time being, he entered the main hall of the mansion, thinking that he would show his usual behavior.He was wrong, as he thought he would only meet the City Lord. There were more than ten people in the room, and they were all sitting quietly in their seats, discussing something passionately. As soon as William and Doravoli entered the hall, the woman sitting at the front raised her hand and everyone suddenly fell silent.Then the woman stood and smiled.William recognized the woman. She was one of the three people who had helped him survive the attack of the mysterious bandit mage and complete his mission

    Doravoli's Charisma 3

    William was watching the bedroom of a house five hundred meters away from the roof of a two-story house. His eyes and face could not be seen in the darkness of the night. But a person standing next to him might have the impression that William was deep in thought.Strangely enough, William wasn't thinking about anything at that moment. It was as if there was a black hole in the bedroom of the house he was watching, and it was sweeping everything away, including William's gaze and thoughts.William felt lifeless right now, like a rock with no IQ.'How did this happen?' William had been on this roof for two hours and had asked himself the same question hundreds of times.Doravoli and Elasha for a few minutes, thinking they would leave after a farewell kiss, but he had listened to the lustful voices of the duo for two hours.'How did this happen?' At first, everything was normal. There was no conversation that contained any suggestive hints. These were normal everyday conversations and s

    Elasha thought this was the most boring day of her life. Following his sister's agreement, she was forced to come to Valimar and open new trade routes to several surrounding cities and towns. Opening these trade routes was never easy, as Valimar and the surrounding cities were surrounded by incredibly dense forests. Cutting down these trees and establishing observation points and crossing points were time-consuming tasks. And the hardest part was finding apprentice mages to work at these points.Nevertheless, she succeeded as usual because she was surrounded by hardworking people. Everyone loved her and her sister, except for a few people who didn't care much about money. If they did their job right, money would automatically fill their pockets.Meeting Enid had been a bit eventful. At first, she wanted to refuse Elura's deal, but Enid and Elura's plans gave her enough reason to be convinced.Elura had started making plans as soon as Elasha had left the White City to start the purific

    "Then we agreed. I'll get you the best flame I can find. But first I have to find it, you know they are very rare." William smiled and packed up the camp. They had spent enough time here.Just as they were about to start their journey deep into the forest after packing up the camp, William felt a vibration from his dimensional bag. He immediately took the vibrating device out of his dimensional bag.It was the seal of the Expedition Organization, and it contained a message from Fabian.[Go to Valimar. Find Enid, the City Lord. She will explain everything to you].William's face darkened. Valimar had not left him with good memories. Elura named woman had been a real nuisance to him, and while he had forgotten that story, taking on a mission like this spoiled his mood.Frankly, he wanted to relax in the White City for a few months. His journey had improved him enough, and he was ready to make another breakthrough at any moment. Of course, the most important problem on his mind was Dorav

    Happy Days

    "Have you finally woken up?" Doravoli looked at the weak William lying in the shadow of the rock. He had a sad, tearful expression on his face. He was sitting across from William, gnawing at the flesh of a small creature. It was a small lizard.He had a bandage on his cut foot.William felt more tired than ever, but when he discovered that he could move his hands with a snap of his fingers and a little bit of mana, he pulled hundreds of useful items from his ring. Most of these items were healing potions and blood crystals.He spoke with difficulty, as even the movement of his jaw was painful. "Blood crystals, put some in my mouth."Doravoli was also very tired. He even hunted down the small lizard he had gnawed, using his magic only because the lizard was too close. He waved his hand and, controlling his mana, took some of the blood crystals and brought them to William's mouth. Then he used some himself.Half an hour later, William regained some consciousness. He could move a little

    "Absolute Cut!" William shouted at the top of his voice, attacking the real body between the two copies with the strongest ability he had.The wind blade that came out of the tip of William's sword flew unblocked toward its original target, too fast for the two clones to react. The moment William's sword emerged, it struck the man's body. William knelt in weakness, but he still had one eye on the man. He wanted to see him die with his own eyes.When the ability hit the man, his body split into two, just as William expected, and the two clones vanished instantly. The sword in the hand of one of the copies fell to the ground as if it were a real object and not a spell."Hğğğğğ..." (Blood-filled guttural sound.) A growl came from the body of the man who had been cut in half.William barely raised his head and looked at the man's body in surprise.Two separate body parts were resisting falling to the ground. He was still standing. The six-centimeter gap between them was covered by an invi

    "No matter what happens, I will be with you and we will fight together." Doravoli heard everything that was said and realized that this man was after William. Even though names like 'Storm God', 'Nicolas', and 'Nak'kato' were unfamiliar to him, Doravoli would help in any way he could because he was his friend. -He knew who Nicolas was, but he didn't understand why the man in front of him cared about Nicolas.-William bowed his head. At the slightest movement of the man, he was ready to pull dozens of potions from his ring and cast his spells. He knew that this was a classic cliché and wasn't surprised that he found himself in it, but he only remained on the dark side as to why.While William was in deep thought, the man's voice filled his ears."I...You..." Suddenly the man froze. He made incomprehensible noises and his body bent slightly. William knew this was the perfect moment to attack, but he held back, for soon the man straightened his body and showed his old smile again.He rai

    "Hey Doravoli, you can't carve that wood like that!" William grabbed the flat chisel and the piece of blue ironwood out of Doravoli's hand."You never listen to what I say! Look at it again and pay attention." William began to get angry. Today was two weeks after he started teaching Doravoli blacksmithing. The two of them had almost reached the middle of the rocks. They were a little slow, but it was an acceptable pace.William held the piece of blue ironwood in his left hand and tucked it between his knees. Then he supported it firmly with his left hand and began to "float" the flat chisel on the surface of the blue ironwood with his right hand."Look, if you hold the flat chisel like this, none of the lines you make will be crooked. You have a strong body like mine, so this shouldn't be a problem for you. But you stubbornly insist on holding the flat chisel sideways, and that causes you to make little notches in the wood. Doravoli, if you want to do something of quality and worthy o

    Return Journey

    The two guarded the area for a day and had fun until the next day. The townspeople never set foot in the area because Lennard had warned them. Occasionally, a few brave official mage-level adventurers would stop by, but thanks to William's ability to throw cups, the wounds they received from hundreds of meters away, and a few minor scoldings, escaping became their priority.The next day, Fabian appeared again like a meteor over Greyscar. The way he flew was so dominant, like an unstoppable rocket. It seemed as if he could crush anything that came his way. William realized that day that Fabian's speed was even slightly faster than the strengthened Lennard.Fabian came alone. There was no one behind him, and as soon as he arrived, he looked at William briefly and then quickly examined the surroundings. He didn't speak at all, and although that made William a little uncomfortable, he didn't care. He acted the same way in the first ruin he discovered. The second time he saw Fabian, he rea
