The wise man returns

Before arriving in Balin, Andropos traveled all over the continent and kidnapped people known as geniuses.

That's why I was already familiar with all the reactions they showed, and I was able to respond as soon as I heard Valine's words.

"No. You're not going to do anything!"

But there was one thing Andropos didn't know.

that Balin is a regent, and at the same time a person who is more obsessed with this than Andropos.

"I will not ask for help or run away from others, and there is no harm to each other. If you don't listen to me, I will resist like before, okay?"

Andropos scratches his head in front of Balin, who calmly hesitates.

Obviously, if you resist like you just did, you become disadvantaged.

Moreover, this place is his residence, so if other wizards come, it can be quite difficult.

“Chung... Will you follow me quietly if I listen to you? ”

And the tone of giving up everything.

The hand of Andropos, who was taking advantage, loosened momentarily.

Valine, who confirmed it, empowered her eyes and spoke.

“Before I follow, please take a look at my sword. ”

“Your sword? It shouldn't be difficult. ”

Once I started training anyway, it wasn't that hard to see since I saw swordsmanship every day. It was only a few times more business than defeating the desperate Balin.

Andropos adds a few words after accepting the offer.

“Tonight, we'll fight on the other side. And if it's a duel and it moves, you'll regret it. My struggle has always stood in the way of death. ”

“... Yes. ”

All I have to say is that Palias gets up and breathes because he's sleeping.

My old colleagues used to tease me with it, but each time, Palias used to scratch the back of his head.

“Then I'll come back at night, so be ready. I won't forgive you if you run away. ”

“Of course.”

A declaration of someone close to the best in the world. I couldn't ignore it if I wanted to.

Andropos smiles, wondering if he liked the angles in the answer.

* * *

After Andropos disappeared, Balin hurriedly brought a list of artifacts from the Tower.

Numerous artifacts stored in the tower separately from those handed over to the nobles.

Both the owners and the artifacts stored in the warehouse were written in a book.

“What's going on? Who the hell is the old man? ”

Elijah approaches, looking over the list, raising his voice.

Balin raises his head slightly, then leans back to examine the next chapter.

Wind Blade, flying a sword in the wind? I'm gonna get fired from the Oracle Blade. Lion Ring. Summon the Lion of Flame? Rejected. ’

“Master Valine! ”

“Oh! Oh. Yes.”

When she looks up in anger, Elijah frowns a lot.

“I know you have an appointment tonight, but I need to know what's going on. ”

“Sword Andropos. ”

“Yes?”

“That's the old man's name. He's just trying to kidnap me as his disciple. ”

Elia's face pales in an instant, hearing the identity of the old man.

I've heard of the world's finest prosecutors, even though she's only lived inside the tower.

“Uh, uh. The andropos I knew, the andropos Valine knew? The one closest to the world's strongest, who is allied with Duke Abel of Kadim? ”

“Who else would come here but that Andropos? ”

Balin reaffirms the taste and covers the list, confirming that the sword she knows is correct.

Numerous artifacts were documented, but none of them were useful.

"With the ability of a no-man 's-land, you can cast all your magic without casting, so what's the need for artifacts..."

You can summon all the magic right away without casting time.

When you deal with a wizard, you quickly realize how frightening it can be.

Basically, you can't anticipate when or where an attack will come from.

Once you hold on to your magic, the attack continues without any time to breathe.

I don't remember the name of magic after casting it, so I don't know what magic will come out of it, and I get confused by magical attacks that appear all of a sudden.

Having this ability, there was no need for artifacts.

“There's no way. I have to do my best. ”

Balain, who sat with his strength down, told Elias that he was always asking for help.

From what happened with Leven.

The purpose of Andropos, and the promise of tonight.

But one thing was intentionally hidden as much as the fight in the city.

Knowing what the right level of Balin is for Elijah.

because we had to avoid that much.

“I can't... I can't believe it!? Teaching a wizard swordsmanship, that makes no sense! ”

When Elijah told the story, he pleaded with her to see if she was in great pain.

I wanted to fight back because I felt like it, but now I don't have the time.

Balin grabs Manaseok out of the tomb.

“I don't know. That inspiration could be good. The sword, the magic. Anything out of the ordinary can be taken, made his disciple, and swordsmanship handed over. ”

The grumbling face of Balin suddenly hardened. His eyes turned red and his surroundings became moist.

Elijah tilts his head toward the lengthening silence as he prepares to face you.

“Valine? ”

“Hmph. Hmph. Nothing, I just don't think you understand him. ”

“You don't understand. He's just a freak. ”

“... Kleckle. ”

It was an old man's laugh that had been brought out for a long time. Balin closes her eyes, smiling bloody.

‘Does anyone understand this yet? I thought you said we could move Mana elsewhere and create new circles! ’

"Idiots! That's not what I'm doing! Distribute focus evenly to both Mana with contradictory attributes! ’

‘I'm frustrated, frustrated. I can't believe I don't have any disciples to leave my progress to. This is why if I am attacked by the Demon King, who will take my place? ’

The passing voice was unfamiliar.

With that sound, there was clear water around Balin's eyes.

“... Ha. Haha... Hahaha...”

“Aye, Master Valine? ”

Elijah calls, but Valine does not stop laughing.

In his eyes, clear water continued to flow.

Familiar faces continue to pass through the shimmy vision.

Balin realizes, looking at each one of his faces.

Immediately, Mana approaches.

Spaa -

Spaa -!

The flow of Mana flows in like waves, filling each part of your body.

Elijah, who was watching, is furious and turns back.

This is... enlightenment! ’

A wizard who needs to battle in the absolute volume of Mana, but sometimes realizations can make him grow.

This is called enlightenment, and the achievements achieved were wider and harder than normal growth.

In addition, the sorcerers who experienced the realization received self-respect from others.

Having an epiphany means that the person's soul rating has increased that much.

It was such a rare phenomenon that Balin was being enlightened whether the sky helped him or not.

I remembered one thing in Elia's head that I was staring at dazed.

‘Anyone seeking enlightenment should not be disturbed! If you get in the way, Mana, who was cut off in the wrong place, will be strangely seated. ‘

She quietly walks out of the room.

Balin, who was left alone, closed her eyes and thought for a while.

In the meantime, Mana slowly circulates and cleans up the impurities in Mana Circle.

Over the newly refurbished Mana circle, a new frame is overlaid.

In keeping with the uplifted spirit, all of Mana's circles began to see it.

Spinning fiercely through five Mana circles, she vomits a new Mana and creates a new one.

For a long time, Mana froze and frowned.

Balin slowly opens her eyes in the fox.

Six circles of lightning became seven circles.

Other Mana circles also improved by 1 circle.

Lightning is class seven, fire and water and wind magic is class six, and soil magic is class five.

It wasn't the only thing I got.

A Soldier sword that I had mastered while performing swordsmanship at every turn.

It has evolved into a new unique ability, combined with memories of the past.

Many swords I have seen before regression. The experience of fighting with all the factions melts away like the spring snow.

- [Unique Ability: Soldier Sword] has disappeared.

- [New Unique Ability: Sword of Mankind] has been created.

By the time the absorption of the realization was over, the outside was already dim.

Balin, who had a remarkable performance, would have sent congratulations right away if Elijah were around.

But Valerie thought for a moment that she was lost in thought.

“Haaa... I can't... just think about it...”

There were always men with knives in their backs, but there were also precious disciples.

Now that you've come to know its value, you're quite reckless for Layan. When Valine thought that, she suddenly stood up, noticing the darkness around her.

“Wait, time is already like this!! ”

Balin rolls his feet without even knowing it.

Bang, bang! With the sound of his feet, Mana flows in and fills Mana's circles.

At that moment, Balin's eyes widened. Balin quickly breathed a few times.

The results were surprising.

The Mana Circle grew by one, and the amount and concentration of Mana increased.

I thought I was lost in thought, but in the meantime I made great progress.

At least a few times, I was welcome to sleep like this. Balin grins and shakes his head.

“Tsk tsk!! ”

Despite almost the end of his promise, Balin was more relaxed than before.

The realization made it more relaxing.

Resting like that, the black shadow shines over the window frame.

The tower's alarm system has detected no anomalies, but the intruder is already here.

“Are you ready? ”

“I'll leave when Master Elia comes. He's going to be the observer. ”

“It doesn't matter to me. Unless you're digging a trap. ”

“That's not going to happen. ”

Andropos faced a returning look at Balin with a brief admiration.

I gave myself an unusual boost during the day, but now that I'm here, I see myself with my deeper eyes.

Growing up with an epiphany in one day. I was thrilled to imagine how strong it would be in a month or a year.

“Then let's go. ”

“Yes.”

After waiting for a while, Elijah came in after finishing his work.

Balin and Andropos get up from their seat as if they were waiting, and head for the place they promised - the tower training ground.
