Although Shagberg handed over the Book of Casa, the final fate was very miserable. He was tricked into accepting the old bandage, and was transported directly to the catacombs. Naivagia, who had been waiting for a long time, locked it in the coffin without hesitation, and escaped from this dark place at the moment when the curse and magic contract shifted.

It wasn't long before an ancient mummy wrapped in bandages appeared on the roof of the Bronze Crown Inn. As soon as it saw Henry, it immediately knelt down and made a deep voice: "New...... New owner...... You're done...... Conventions...... From now on...... I will obey...... Command...... All the way up to ...... By...... was destroyed. ”

"Very well, sue me, how did you manage to make a judgment when the spell was just being chanted?" It took a long time, and Henry was most concerned about this. In order to keep it a secret, he sent his teammates to the Bronze Crown Hotel a few minutes before.

Naivagia's ruby eyes flashed, and then she shook her head slightly. "I ...... No...... Name the ...... Secret...... Oath of Magic...... Casa ...... Tutors are forbidden...... All apprentices...... Mention...... But...... Book of Casa...... Yes...... It is documented......"

"You're saying you can learn this magic skill just by reading this book?" Henry asked, shaking a thick dark blue book in his hand.

This is the Book of Casa handed over by Shagberg. The moment he got it, he flipped it open and looked it up, only to find that the page was almost blank. Obviously, the book is blessed with special protective magic and secret locks, which can only be cracked layer by layer except for the owner himself. It's a time-consuming and laborious task. Without damaging the contents. Sometimes it lasts from a few months to a year.

――――――――――――――

Book of Casa:

This famous book was written by a lich named "Casa". It is said to be related to the darkest secrets of sorcery. But when you look at it. Its pages seem to be blank entirely. After Casa was killed in the final days of the Nethrel Rebellion, the book was taken by his disciples to what is now known as Am. It is not known how it came to its current position after so many years.

――――――――――――――

Seeing this book, Naivagia's bandaged face showed a rare hint of excitement. "Yes...... Yes...... Inside...... Documented...... Tutor ...... the most The Greatest ...... Accomplishment...... I...... I used to crave ...... Go read it...... But...... But because of ...... Messed up one thing...... Eventually, it was turned into ...... This way. ”

Henry frowned and asked, "So you know how you can unlock the protective magic on it?" ”

"That's right...... The night of the first quarter moon...... With the blood of a pure woman...... Soak...... All...... Pages...... The Literal ...... of Knowledge will manifest ...... "Naivagia always spoke intermittently, as if the long period of isolation had impaired his ability to express himself. But fortunately, when chanting the mantra, it didn't affect at all, not only did the words speak clearly, but also the speed was quite fast.

Henry probably made a silent calculation in his mind. The night of the first quarter moon does not appear until three days later, and the blood of pure women is easier to obtain. After all, it is not about human life, as long as you spend a few gold coins, you can easily find a large number of volunteers in the slums. You know, there are a lot of people here who can't even afford to eat, and if you know that you can make money by shedding a little blood, you are guaranteed to be flocked to the place.

After getting the information he wanted, he sent the Ancient Mummy directly to the Mage Tower in Amm to be the company of the Lich Oleg. With these two powerful undead creatures in charge, the safety of the Mage Tower doesn't have to worry too much.

Since Amelia had already fallen asleep, Henry didn't bother much, just explained the matter and left immediately. Although he had already instructed Viconia and Feder to keep an eye on Edwin, he was still not too worried about letting the Nexriel Scroll out of his sight.

The night at the Bronze Crown Hotel is even more lively. Many business projects that were not allowed to be carried out during the day are now open. For example, the bloody underground arena, and then the special rooms with closed doors. Because it's midnight. There were not a few patrolling guards in the streets.

As soon as Henry entered the door, he smelled the smell of sweat, inferior perfume, wine, cigarettes, etc., and was almost pushed out. He quietly punished a few halfling pickpockets while looking around for traces of his teammates. After sending several scantily clad women to work in the special services in a row, he finally saw Kogan eating and drinking in a corner.

I saw that the inferior wooden table was filled with sumptuous dishes, from meat from various livestock and poultry to fish, shrimp, and shellfish swimming in the water. There was even a large plate in the middle of the table, and it was filled with one-foot-long sea crabs. It can be said that this is already the most luxurious food that the Bronze Crown Inn can offer, adding up to at least forty gold coins.

The dwarf apparently saw Henry as well, and immediately shouted at the top of his voice, "Hey! This way! Come on, we're all waiting for you to eat. ”

"Damn! What is it? "Henry had just approached when he suddenly noticed a bloody hand on the ground.

Feder shrugged his shoulders and explained, "Aha, don't care. The guy had a bad idea when he saw the sumptuous dishes and the two beauties in the party, and as soon as his claws reached out, he was cut off by a sharp axe. ”

"Are you boasting about yourself in disguise?" Hyung asked in a joking tone. As soon as he heard that it was the other party who made the first move, he didn't plan to pursue it anymore, anyway, this kind of guy is definitely not a good thing.

"Look at the plump (full) chest, the slender waist, and finally the slender pairs (legs). Am I not a beauty? Feder also jokingly struck a seductive pose. Her long-term training as a thief has allowed her to maintain her feminine lines, and a pair of tight-fitting leather jackets can indeed provoke the primitive (desire) of men.

Henry sighed slightly. "Well, I'll admit that you are indeed a very (seductive) beauty. But it's best to put this action away for now, because there are a lot of men who are attracted to it. If you don't stop quickly, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat this sumptuous dinner. ”

Fett smiled happily and covered himself with his cloak again. Although she had done many dangerous jobs to survive before, including thieves, assassins, pickpockets, robbers, and even widows, this was the first time she had ventured. It only took one afternoon to get a share of more than 2,000 gold coins, which was faster than the money from robbery.

She was quite satisfied with the new boss she had taken refuge in. Not only is he quite handsome, but he is also generous, and he is a powerful legendary spellcaster in his own right. Isn't it the life you've always dreamed of walking around, doing something dangerous and exciting, and then finding a warm hotel to eat and drink after earning a lot of coins.

Seeing the excited eyes of his teammates, Henry poured himself a glass of sweet wine and said with a smile: "To the great adventurer!" ”

"To the great adventurers!"

Everyone shouted in unison, followed by a gulp, even Henry himself. Since absorbing the (desire) of the longing, his aversion to alcohol has decreased a lot, and although he still doesn't like the taste, it's okay to have a small drink on a celebratory occasion.

"Hah! There's nothing more enjoyable than having a big meal at the end of an adventure. What's more, our harvest is quite rich, and it is the first time for me to get so much money. Kogan said, wiping the wine from his beard.

Viconia asked Henry as she ate her food, "What's next, rest for a few days or continue the adventure?" I've heard that the Blind Eye Church has been going on in the temple area lately, and various temples have offered huge bounties. In addition, there is a sphere that suddenly appeared in the west of the ghetto, and the masked has intervened in the investigation, and I believe that as a mage, you will definitely be interested. ”

"Spheres? It was a magical flying machine capable of traveling through all planes. I've heard that it belonged to a powerful mage from hundreds of years ago in the Khosara family, and if the masked mage intervenes, it must be a treasure inside, maybe we should strike before they get it. ”

Edwin, who had been silent, immediately became interested when he heard about magic. Apparently he was very interested in the Orb and the special bloodline of the Kosara family. You must know that this family used to be the richest nobleman in Am, but now it is ridiculed. It is said that they have a special curse in their veins, and that each member of the Khosara family has a very good talent for magic, and once they use it, they will be bewitched by the powerful power within, and the end will be very miserable.

Henry shook his head with a smile as he swallowed the piece of meat in his mouth. "No, these things are not on the table yet. Our next target is the Talisman Society's stronghold in Ascatla, where one is said to hold the Archmage's Staff that every mage and warlock dreams of. ”

"Archmage's Staff ?!!" Edwin's face flushed with excitement when he heard this, and then cursed in a low voice, "Damn! This is the devil's temptation. ”

"Are you sure you want to deal with the Talisman Society? They are a group of powerful undead creatures, especially lichs, who will surely be retaliated against if they can't find a life box after they are killed. I've been a slave to Karinshan for a while, and I know all too well how terrifying this organization is. Feide's hands and feet were shaking as he spoke, and it seemed that the experience had left a lot of psychological shadows.

"Don't worry, I'm sure I'll eradicate them all at once, and I won't let any of them escape and report back."

Henry said this with confidence. He'd already surveyed the stronghold in the Bridge area, which was connected to a miniature half-plane that could be quickly sealed off if you were quick enough. When the time comes, neither the Lich, the Vampire, nor the Eye Demon will be able to escape, and they will only be trapped inside. (To be continued......)
