Chapter 620 Visitor

Chapter 620 Visitor

Upon the airship's arrival and subsequent docking in a field near the small town, Vale, Chad, and Magnus disembarked to attend to their respective tasks.

Specifically, Chad and Magnus set out to finalize a transaction within the small town, while Vale took the opportunity to explore the area.

Apparently, it was Vale who had detected a disturbance in the small town, prompting him to dispatch Lisa to address the situation.

Although he was capable of handling it himself, Vale opted to have Lisa take charge, in order to leave a favorable impression.

After all, it was her responsibility to sell their products to the public. It means that she would have more interactions with them than Vale.

"Vale, we're heading ahead... We should be done in about an hour..." Chad informed Vale as he observed him gazing at the town square.

After being together with the dragons for a week, Chad felt that he no longer had anything to fear, so he felt comfortable going to unfamiliar places, like this small town. The debut release of this chapter happened at Ñøv€l-B1n.

"Alright... I'll take a look around the town. Just wait for me in the airship..." Vale replied as he waved his hand to Chad.

With his Presence Shift Spell, he possessed the ability to move effortlessly within his Magic Zone, ensuring that he wouldn't be lost or left behind by his companions.

As Vale roamed the small town, he made a startling discovery – an abundance of cursed items were being circulated in the area!

'What's going on here?' Vale mused.

He also keenly observed the conspicuous absence of Arcanists in the vicinity, a fact that struck him as highly unusual considering the magical nature of their surroundings.

'I felt a huge amount of Arcane Energy a while ago... But there are only a few Combat Arcanists around when I arrived... Did it all come from the evil spirits?'

This absence of magical practitioners raised further concerns about the town's predicament and the potential impact of the cursed items.

Fortunately, the townspeople embraced the idea and cooperated with Vale's proposal.

Everything proceeded smoothly, thanks to the reputation of their merchant airship among the public. Subsequently, Vale enlisted Yvaine's assistance to store all the artifacts in his shadow.

Everything seemed peaceful as Lisa finalized their transaction with the small town.

Regrettably, this tranquil interlude didn't last for long as an unexpected visitor arrived in the city.

'Mhmm? When did he get here?' Vale thought as he activated his Arcane Armor. It was a practiced reaction since Arcane Armor could defend almost against any form of attack.

Vale then squinted his eyes as he triggered his detection spells on the figure that has arrived.

The newcomer was a man adorned with two black horns protruding from his head and fiery red hair.

He wasn't emitting any form of energy as he arrived at the town square without being noticed by Vale's Magic Zone until he had appeared near him!

He had a strikingly pale complexion, a handsome countenance, and discernible fangs. Clad in a robe exuding an otherworldly aura, he had undoubtedly made a mysterious entrance...

"Mhmmm... No wonder my items disappeared here... Did you destroy them, incomplete immortal?" The visitor spoke in a deep voice as he looked at Vale with an emotionless eye.

Vale found himself at a loss regarding the identity of the enigmatic man, but a realization dawned upon him as he took note of the distinctive horns and the manner in which he was addressed.

'Demon Saint?!' Vale couldn't help but draw a deep breath as the pieces of the puzzle fell into place.

While he had anticipated an encounter with them, he had not expected it to unfold at this particular moment, especially when he had only intended to explore the nearby towns and cities around their castle.

His plans to treat Lisa and the others to an extravagant meal after completing their tasks now seemed like a distant luxury.
