Arryn, Mirelia and several other groups of adventurers began to take Clark to the Village Hall. They have already found accurate evidence of the perpetrator in this murder case. Without a doubt, they found organs that were deliberately taken by Clark without knowing what the reason was. Even sadder was that Clark killed his own nephew, who had lived with him for a long time. "I don't know why you did that, but you'd better start explaining it to the rest of us, Clark," Mirelia pleaded. Mirelia and Arryn stepped in the right behind Clark, who was carried by the village soldiers. Not only them but all the villagers were informed of the latest news this time. "I did it to protect the village!" Clark insisted. "Even so, taking the lives of innocent people is a big crime," Arryn explained. "Listen to me. You must agree with my reasons for killing them," Clark snapped. Although Clark continued to speak, rambling on with explanations, in the end, Arryn and Mirelia chose not to listen t
*** Luckily for Arryn's party group, the stuff they brought wasn't so much, so Vio and Ivy didn't have much trouble when they had to pack quickly. Alicia and Hunt followed Arryn's lead because they didn't understand what was happening. Before going to her inn, Mirelia had visited Arryn's room for a moment, intending to sign the report that would be submitted to the guild. Arryn gave her the report paper they hadn't been able to fill in at all due to the rather tense situation tonight. Mirelia, without hesitation, took the pen and wrote a signature that looked like Clark's. "They won't know the truth about this signature," Mirelia explained. "I hope so," Arryn replied. "After this mission, where are you going?" asked Mirelia. Arryn sighed as his hands were clasped around his waist. "I don't know. I think we're going to the capital to visit someone there," Arryn replied. "Anchora? I know almost everyone there. Who exactly are you going to visit there?" asked Mirelia. "I couldn't
*** "I didn't expect you to complete the rank-A mission so quickly and well," replied the guild receptionist, smiling proudly as she received the written report made by Arryn's group this morning. "Thank you. We couldn't have done it without the assistance of the other adventurers. We learned a lot from this mission," said Arryn, smiling happily, followed by the two women standing behind him. The receptionist began to reach behind her desk, taking out a bag of coins wrapped in cloth and handing it to Arryn as the group leader. The woman added that Arryn would get experience points for completing the mission. [One Message!] [You get mission reward: 500 exp] Suddenly a blue panel appeared in front of Arryn, showing a description of the EXP points earned right after Arryn submitted the mission report. The experience points earned were enough for Arryn to increase his current level from 53 to 55. Not only he got these points, but his two members also got the same points. Vio and Ivy
*** "Before we go to Anchora, we should improve our skills first. There are several large cities along the way to the capital of the Athanor," Arryn explained. He stepped up while carrying a brief detailing the mission they were about to carry out. Arryn hadn't had a chance to read it yet, so the mission brief was unopened and still sealed. "We should discuss it with Alicia. I'm sure she knows more about the city outside Ravengarden than we do," Ivy pleaded. Arryn nodded, agreeing with Ivy's request because he thought Alicia must have certain information regarding the status upgrade. "Alright, but please keep this secret from her, okay? I don't want her to get worried when she hears we're taking a dangerous mission to the demon area," Arryn explained. Ivy and Vio agreed without arguing. Arryn said goodbye to the receptionist while carrying the mission brief. He took a step accompanied by two women on his right and left. Just as Arryn was about to step away from the guild office,
Seeing the seriousness shown by Arryn makes Gordon wary of him. Gordon didn't know Arryn's true ability; it could be stronger or weaker than him. Unwilling to take more time, Gordon began tightening his sword grip and dashed towards Arryn. Arryn didn't flinch against Gordon's attack either. He stood tall and strong as his right hand extended forward. "HYAAA!" [Summoning System: Wind Spear Thrust] A vortex of wind appeared in front of Arryn's open palm. Gordon's sword swing, which had somehow slowed down in Arryn's eyes, was well-taken advantage of by the man to launch a counterattack. He dodged Gordon's attack with a right hand that directly hit Gordon's body hard. The attack instantly stunned Gordon and pushed him far enough that he had to kneel down while trying to breathe normally. "An attack like that won't kill me," Gordon explained, smiling with a grin. "It's not time for you to die yet. I still want to play with you," Arryn replied. "FUCKING SHIT!" Gordon shouted in ann
"Eranor?" asked Arryn, who had just heard of the city. "Eranor is a City of Culture. You will find significant differences between the city and Ravengarden," Alicia explained. "But what is certain is that you can upgrade your status there. Come to Vertophon's research institute and tell them you want to do that," Alicia continued. Ivy raised her right hand, intending to ask a question to Alicia who had already done the status upgrade. Ivy remembered that when she and Arryn were still at the Obelisk, she had heard that upgrading from Apprentice to second-tier magic user required some preparation. "Isn't it true that if we want to upgrade, we must study several magic books?" Ivy asked. Alicia nodded with a smile. She explained that the status upgrade could only be done if Arryn had understood the first three scriptures. "That's true. The first book is The Codex of Arcana, the second book is The Spirit of Magic, and the third book is The Scriptures Faith of Magic," said Alicia. Hea
*** Day three Arryn surprisingly managed to finish three books quickly, as did Vio, who only needed two days to complete the last book, The Scriptures Faith of Magic. This made Alicia happy, as did Ivy, who had accompanied the two during their studies. After completing all three books, Alicia now only had to take a few small tests as a prelude to the primary test to upgrade their status. "I'm impressed. You two managed to finish all three books well," Alicia praised, standing tall in front of them at a considerable distance. Arryn and Vio began to prepare after seeing that Alicia's outfit was different from usual. The woman wore light armour along with her helmet and held a small magic wand in her right hand. "Since you're about to take the main test, I'll show you what it's like," Alicia said. The three of them were in a no man's land; there were only them and Ivy, as well as Hunt, who saw directly. Alicia intentionally chose this place because she thought this place was much s
Five hours wouldn't be enough time for the two to search for magic spirits around Ravengarden. Arryn himself still hadn't moved from where he stood. He was still thinking about what kind of magic spirit he wanted. Unlike Vio, who had already determined what kind of magic spirit she wanted, that's what made the woman go along with Ivy to visit the lake outside the Ravengarden city area. Alicia was still in that place, observing Arryn, who was still standing there. "I'm sure you can find the spirits you want because there are far more of them than we imagined," Alicia explained. "That's a relief, but I don't know if I can find the magic spirit I want there," Arryn replied, pointing to the rainforest area west of Ravengarden. "Oh, you're going to look for them in that forest?" asked Alicia, Arryn nodding slowly. "There's a good chance they're there too, but as far as I know, the spirits will stay where their magic takes them," Alicia replied. The woman's words surprised Arryn becau
