Everyone couldnât rest because the cursed people reached the castle and they had to protect themselves from them. Since Mykel didnât want to waste his time dealing with armies of cursed people, he burned them all into ashes and slaughtered them with the throwing knives that he imbued with Hellfire.
âYou shouldâve done it earlier so we donât have to struggle,â Kastor said as he looked at Mykel playing with the knives.
âYou sound better if you keep your mouth shut,â Agnez walked past Kastor and bumped onto his shoulder. âYou know what? If you train like how you open your mouth, I think you will be more useful. No wonder Miss Lyneth left you over Mykel since youâre whining at anything,â Agnez said as she walked backward and stared at him.
Gunnar and the others snorted and held their laughter as they followed Agnez from behind.
âI know that heâs your mentor, but I suggest you donât copy him because heâs impossible to not be underestimated,â Rozan said as he looked at Asmond with a pitiful expression.
âThatâs a good one, dude,â Gunnar said quietly as he giggled and looked at Rozan while carrying Jeanne on his back.
Asmond wanted to defend Kastor but at the same time, he started to feel like he was superior since he had become stronger than Kastor. He suddenly shook his head and realized that he just thought something that he shouldnât think about because Kastor was the one who brought him.
âHeâs my mentor and Iâm here because of him, so I will follow him and learn from him,â Asmond answered as he smiled.
Mykel looked at Gunnar and waved at him. âLet me carry her,â
Gunnar turned around and let Mykel grab Jeanne from his back.
âIf you have complaints, why donât you fight that servant on your own? We will be chilling here,â Mykel said as he looked at Kastor.
Kastor went quiet and he didnât want to embarrass himself more by responding to Mykelâs question.
Agnez stared at the servant of the demon lord with her arms crossed, she looked at it for quite a while then turned around.
âThat thing is called Legion, itâs when a bunch of demons is combined into one. By the looks of it, I think we wonât be able to fight it with our weapons nor skills since theyâre a bunch of those shadow figures,â Agnez looked at Jeanne on Mykelâs back. âIf we want to fight it, we should use Albertaâs purification skill,â
âAnything else that we need to be worried about?â Rozan asked as he fixed his glasses.
âNothing, itâs just a big demon but itâs still the same demon that we have been fighting for the past five days,â Agnez answered as she shook her head. âAny more questions?â
Gunnar and the others shook their heads.
âAlright, letâs get the fuck out of this gloomy world,â Agnez said and started walking toward the tower.
It took them three hours to finally be able to kill the servant, and Mykel donated 5,000 Arcana Coins. He got a gift from the system because all his recipients had achieved two achievements and gave him 50,000 Arcana Coins.
[Thank you for your participation!]
[You have gained 10 [Constellation Points] from donation!]
[You have gained 300 [Constellation Points] from your [Recipient(s)] achievement!]
[2,630/10,000 [Constellation Points] to level up your [Authority] to level [2]!]
[A total of [5] [Arcana Chests] are being delivered to [Tirth] World]
âItâs finally done!â Gunnar sat down as he dropped his shield, then he looked at Enma who was amazed by the shield that he lent âHow was it? Do you like it?â Gunnar asked.
âThis shield, I think I know what Iâm going to make with the material that I got,â Enma answered as she looked at Gunnar with a big smile on her face.
âGlad that you like it,â Gunnar grinned and giggled.
Enma found it cute how Gunnar was being serious and all during a mission but the moment everything was done, he changed to his true self. She had been paying attention to him ever since the first joint team, and she learned a lot of stuff from his way of fighting.
âSo, to whom we are going to share those chests?â Enma asked as she looked at the chests behind them.
âThatâs the boss to decide,â Gunnar answered as he turned around slowly to look at the chests.
Mykel felt a movement on his back and then he looked at Jeanne who slowly furrowed her forehead. âGood morning, sleepyhead,â Mykel said quietly.
Jeanne hummed and opened her eyes, she looked at the tower in front of her, and then she realized that she was being carried by Mykel on the back. She looked at him but she didnât want to go down and rested her head on his shoulder.
âDid we clear the world?â Jeanne asked as she wrapped her arms around Mykelâs neck.
âWe did and you slept through it like a log,â Mykel smirked as he looked at Jeanne. âAnyway, can you get down?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Jeanne nodded and jumped down then she followed Mykel.
âThere are only six chests, itâs more fitting to give them to Brynhilde and the others since theyâre the ones who basically came here first and tried to clear it. But, we will take one key for each of us so we can go here again without having to clear the first tenth floor,â Mykel said as he looked at Kastor and the others.
âDo you have any complaints?â Mykel asked Kastor.
Kastor shook his head because he didnât want to deal with Mykel or he would embarrass himself. Gaswin and the others immediately opened all the chests and looked at the inside.
âBut there are only five chests while there are six of them though,â Rozan said as he stared at the chests.
âYou donât have to worry about me because I donât need those,â Brynhilde said as she stared at the content of the chest.
âAre you sure? Those materials are blessed by the Gods and Goddesses,â Sven looked at Brynhilde.
Gaswin turned around and looked at Rozan and Sven. âSheâs already wearing the empireâs treasure, the swords that she has were made of a better quality than these, so these materials are no match,â Gaswin explained.
âSpeaking of the swords,â Brynhilde walked toward Jeanne. âI think this sword now belongs to you,â Brynhilde said as she offered the blue sword to Jeanne.
They all looked at Brynhilde with disbelief and were surprised by her words.
âNo, I canât accept it, itâs the empireâs treasure, right? I canât accept it,â Jeanne shook her head as she waved her hands.
âIt is, but this sword has chosen its master, and youâre the new master now. Even if I use it, I canât use the power of the sword anymore because it doesnât recognize me anymore. Itâs only pain but no gain so itâs useless even if I bring it back home,â Brynhilde explained as she unsheathed the sword and swung it around as hard as she could but nothing happened.
âAre you sure, Bryn?â Jeanne frowned her eyebrows.
âThe truth is we came here for something else,â Brynhilde sheathed the sword and looked at it.
Agnez and the others looked at Brynhilde with confusion.
âWe came here for a mission, and that mission is to find the right master for this sword by the order of the emperor because he had a dream and saw a woman that would become the master of this sword,â Brynhilde looked at Jeanne.
âYou can see the different colors of the swords that I have. The top one is gold, the middle one is white, and this one is blue. Each represents the color of the people in our world, Aersland,â Brynhilde showed each color of her swords.
âThe gold one was gifted by Lucian to one of his sons, Maurel. The white one was gifted by Celeste to one of her daughters, Hilde. The blue one was gifted by Celeste to one of her daughtersâ¦â Brynhilde explained but before she could give the name of the daughter, Jeanne interrupted.
âBerta. The sword was gifted to Berta, I saw her as one of the souls trapped inside the sword,â Jeanne said as she stared at the sword.
Brynhilde and the others were shocked when she knew about the history of the sword, she then chuckled softly as she nodded her head.
âSo itâs true, youâre one of us,â Brynhilde looked at Jeanne with a smile on her face.
Agnez furrowed her forehead with confusion as she stared at Brynhilde.
âIâm not sure about that, but she was speaking to me, or at least she gave a final message before she died,â Jeanne said as she stared blankly. âShe asked me to save the Empyrean, the world of your ancestor,â
Brynhilde was shocked and confused at the same time.
âWhat?! What did she say?!â Brynhilde grabbed Jeanneâs shoulders as she stared at Jeanne with her eyes wide open.
Mykel grabbed Brynhildeâs hand as he looked at the others. âI think itâs better we speak about this privately,â Mykel said as he looked at Agnez. âSend everyone back to Earth, I will stay here with Jeanne,â
Agnez nodded with understanding and then she and the others sent everyone to the portal forcefully. Even Kastor was threatened by her and decided to leave with her and the others.
âThereâs something that I would like to show you as well,â Mykel said as he looked at Agnez as the last person that entered the portal.
