Under the candlelight, the sword light flickered.

The two layers of force field shields were penetrated like paper, along with Rodel's 'body'.

Airplanes!

The blade of the [Wind Thorn] shook, and the frost filled the air, and Rodel's 'body' in front of him instantly turned into a bubble, like a soap bubble in the sun, and it shattered with a 'snap'.

Obviously, this is a very real apparition!

However, Dean was not surprised by this, and even paused his movements.

He turned his wrist, and the blade of the [Wind Thorn] cut through one wonderful arc after another, forming one circle after another.

Extreme cold, with the turn of the blade, began to fill the room.

The candle flame was extinguished in the cold a moment ago.

In the entire room, only darkness remained.

……

"Damn! Damn it! ”

Rodell cursed angrily in his heart, he never thought that the hole cards he had kept as a life-saving card would be 'consumed' like this.

The anger and resentment towards Dean reached a high point again.

However, Rodel was very conscious, and if he wanted to live, he had to leave this room, and even this galleon.

Fortunately, in order to deal with the unexpected, Rodell was quite prepared.

"Now it's just ......"

Rodell, who had concealed all his breath, looked at the door of the room, and suddenly the candle flame went out, and the whole room was plunged into darkness.

"Chance!"

With a shock to his heart, a fist-sized crystal ball appeared in Rodel's palm, which he threw straight out.

Sou!

There was a sound of clothes breaking through the air as they were hurrying forward. Then. It was the sound of a sword blade breaking through the air.

Burst!

It's like a metal blade piercing into flesh. The voice in the body appears. At the same time, it was followed by the sound of corpses falling to the ground; However, the door was slammed open by the 'corpse'.

And just then, Rodell flew towards the door.

The lights in the cabin were faintly lit.

One of Rodel's feet had already stepped out of the room, but the next moment he was standing still.

A sword tip protruded from his slightly open mouth, with layers of thick blood and most of his tongue, and then the sword slashed downward.

Start with the chin. Rodel was split in two.

Dean walked out slowly, the darkness was left far behind him, but still with a sense of being one, he looked down at the dead wizard and chuckled, "Darkness...... But my home turf! ”

As he spoke, he shook the blood on the blade slightly.

【XP+450】

An XP orb of light that closely matched that of a superior wizard was integrated into Dean's body.

"Tom!"

Dean shouted.

"Young Master!"

Tom, who had been waiting for a long time, walked out of the other side of the cabin with a quick step.

"Clean up the body and check his hiding place again!"

Dean commanded.

"Yes, young master!"

Tom replied with a bow.

……

Flagship, Captain's Quarters.

Dean sat behind the table. Looking at some of the things on the table that Tom had retrieved from Rodal -

Four magic rings, and a magic necklace. There is also a considerable amount of magic material.

However, three of the four magic rings had already been used and needed to be refilled with magic, and the remaining magic ring had only one chance to be used, as was the magic necklace.

【Silenced Ring】

【Type: Ring】

[Weight: 3g]

[Specification: Normal Human Category]

[Special Effect: Mute (1/5)]

[Mute Technique: Cancels the sound made by oneself for 75 seconds]

[Description: This is one of the thieves' favorite magic items, although it is worth a lot of money.]

[Note: Even if your voice is eliminated, it doesn't mean that you can sing loudly]

……

【Illusion of Reality】

【Type: Necklace】

[Weight: 15g]

[Specification: Normal Human Category]

[Special Effect: Real Illusion (1/2)]

[True Illusion: Leave an illusion identical to yourself in place, without any attack or defense capabilities, and unable to move]

[Description: This is a magical item produced by an accidental realization]

[Note: Put it on, the critical moment may be your lifesaver]

Glancing at the two magic items that were still usable, Dean left the [Illusion of Reality] behind, and gave Tom the rest, including the [Silencer Ring].

With the Constraints of the Atmospheric Golem and his own skills, Dean doesn't need other magical items to hide his secrets.

"Can you recharge these magical items again?"

Dean asked.

"I can't do it yet, but the teacher can!"

Tom replied honestly.

"Hmmm! Go and cut off Rodel's head and hang it on the bow of the ship! ”

Dean nodded, and then, straight to the point.

"Young Master?"

Tom was stunned and didn't act immediately.

"We can't hide his death here - the contract left in the Wizard's Tower is enough for the wizards to find out about Rodel's death! In such a situation, it is far better to be there openly than to be discovered in a secretive way...... After all, Rodel was at fault in the first place! ”

Dean said.

"But young master, the wizards of the Secret Law Island ......"

"Isn't it arrogant and unreasonable?"

Dean couldn't help but laugh as he looked at his servant, who didn't know what to say.

"Don't worry, I know better than you what these wizards look like - I'm ready! Go ahead and hang Rodel's head in the bow of the ship! ”

Dean continued to smile and wave.

"Okay, young master!"

This time Tom didn't hesitate any longer, and bowed. He left with the magic items Dean had given him.

Dean sat in the captain's room. Look through the window. Looking at the dark and secluded sea outside, under the reflection of the candle flame in the room, Dean's eyes became more and more quiet and deep.

He reminisced about his experiences on the Mystic Island.

Of course, the vast majority of them are quite unbearable.

Act as an Apothecary, Wizard Apprentice, and...... Live. The real yàn material of the body.

However, it was also because of this experience that he was in danger several times in the future. Fall on one's feet.

"Edmund ......"

Subconsciously, Dean silently muttered about this forbidden. The real yàn room of the taboo yàn.

Then, coming back to his senses, Dean couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle.

Now he is not the same as him in the previous life, he is no longer the Dean who is willing to become a real material in order to survive.

However, just like in the previous life, he had the same purpose.

The goal from the bottom of his heart makes Dean serious and strong. And persistent.

He stood up and took a slight breath -

[The Power of the Mountain Spirits Lv5→ Lv6.] Consumes 2400XP

[The Power of the Mountain Lv6: Forge your own body with the breath of the mountains and the earth; Effect: Constitution +2.9, Strength +2.4, Effect: Earth Support Lv6 (When standing on the ground with both feet, Health and Energy Recovery Speed +0.90/min; Gain the blessing of Constitution and Strength +2.0)]

Constitution and strength have been increased by 0.5 on the basis of the original one again.

Dean clearly felt the change in his body—that powerful, strong feeling, and Dean couldn't help but clench his fists.

"This time will definitely be different!"

Dean swore silently in his heart.

Then, he quickly glanced at his XP bar and the XP value of [Mountain Spirit Lv6→Lv7].

"There are still 460 XP points left, and [Mountain Spirit Power Lv6→ Lv7] needs 3200 XP points...... Not an insurmountable number! ”

Dean, who sat back in his chair, stretched out his fingers and tapped lightly on the armrests of the chair.

He was thinking about an opponent who could give him XP.

……

Mystic Island, Wizard's Tower.

The tallest building on the Mystic Island, day and night, is in such a hurry.

Wizards, who are rarely seen in the outside world, come and go in groups here.

Some are for studying, while others are renting a better practical room inside the Wizard's Tower.

And some simply serve in the Wizard's Tower.

It's not something to be ashamed of, on the contrary, it's quite an enviable thing to do on the Mystic Island.

Because, being able to serve in the wizard tower is enough to show that your potential and strength have been recognized.

So, countless wizards on the island want to enter it.

Therefore, every wizard who enters it, in the pride of honor, is so serious - they are not willing to let their future be ruined by a small thing.

Therefore, when a contract in the contract room suddenly exuded a strange brilliance, the wizard on duty immediately notified the wizard in charge.

The middle-aged wizard in charge walked towards the top of the wizard's tower with the parchment scroll contract that had become dim after it had bloomed.

This is where the sorcerer Tata Lord lives.

It's just that there is no bedroom furniture such as beds, on the contrary, there are books everywhere.

And at this time, the wizard Tata Master was still reading.

"My lord, Rodel's contract has been broken!"

The steward of the contract office reported.

"yes, got it!"

The wizard Tata Master said without raising his head.

"So what are we going to do?"

The steward of the contract room asked.

"How?"

With a rhetorical question, the Wizard Tower Master raised his head, just as he said in a bland voice, the other party's face was the same, and his eyes were even more cloudy, if it weren't for him sitting here and being respected by the people, no one would believe it anyway, such a person in front of him was the tower master of the Wizard Tower of the Secret Law Island.

"Handle it according to the wizard's rules!"

After a pause, the wizard Tata Master said slowly.

"Yes, sir!"

The steward of the contract room replied respectfully.
