In the dead of night.

Swish! Swish!

Ian swung his sword down as if chopping with an axe.

Along the swords trajectory, green bodily fluids splattered everywhere, and the thick neck of the gray troll was completely severed.

Its head with a protruding forehead and hideous fangs weakly rolled on the ground.

Phew haa.

Ian straightened his crouched back.

Not far away lay the corpse of another gray troll.

160cm in height with abnormally long, muscular arms and big hands.

Whats more, they always moved in pairs, which was annoying to deal with.

But Ians frown wasnt because of that.

That feeling again.Read latest chapters at novelhall.com Only

His jet-black pupils, like a nocturnal animals, scanned the darkness.

For the past few days, he would occasionally sense a gaze.

But no matter how much he focused his senses, he couldnt find any being that would be watching him.

It was the same now.

In any case, this was probably more of a spiritual or magical sensation.

Like the gaze he would sometimes feel from Conrouds essence.

Tch.

He didnt know what it was, but hed beat it up if he caught it.

Clicking his tongue, Ian turned around.

The camp was close.

You done? I heard terrible screams.

Miguel, sitting by the campfire, spoke.

He was shielding Luci with his whole body, clutching an iron mace in his hand.

Yeah. Put away the crossbow.

Ian replied blandly as he approached the campfire.

Miguel let out a sigh of relief and threw over a prepared cloth.

As Ian familiarly wiped off the troll fluids that had splattered on his face, Miguel asked him.

What was it?

Troll.

Again? You said the same thing the day before yesterday. I might just be feeling things, but doesnt it seem like

Miguel hesitated before adding,

Only vicious beasts keep ambushing us? Maybe up north itd be different, but Belronde shouldnt be all that different from Agellan.

A sharp guy.

Ian just shrugged his shoulders.

Thanks to his heightened senses, he could now clearly perceive the traces of prowling creatures better than before.

So he would just scout out the trivial ones and they would disappear, while relatively stronger beings like trolls, night stalkers, and cave spiders would approach them.

He already knew that, but he had no way to explain why such changes were happening.

Whether it was due to the quest, or some transformation occurring within Ian himself.

Or perhaps it was related to that magical gaze he just sensed.

Look on the bright side. At least we probably wont get attacked again tonight.

Having lost his appetite, Miguel grumbled.

Its all because this damn massive continent is so hard to manage when they dont even have the ability. They divided up the land even though they cant handle it. Tch.

Luci nodded in agreement.

Miguel looked at her fondly.

It was nice and endearing.

Ian sighed and opened his mouth.

You dont need to learn things like sword fighting, Lucy. Without that, you can still protect yourself just fine.

How?

Luci blinked and asked back.

Does she really not know?

You have an innate talent.

Are you referring tomy curse?

.

It seems she really doesnt know.

Only then did Ian furrow his brows.

Didnt Sir say anything to you at all?

I dont understand what youre talking about.

Then why did you say you wanted to go to the Temple of Furnace?

I was told it would be safe. And that I could learn a lot more things there than I can now.

So she just agreed to go because she was told to.

Ian let out a hollow laugh.

Maeve probably thought it would be enough that Ian knew the truth.

She must have also thought it would be better if Luci didnt find out beforehand.

But Ian thought differently.

You have a special talent. Going to the Temple of Furnace is meant to help that talent blossom.

What kind of.talent is that?

Not just Luci, but Miguel also looked at him expectantly.

Instead of answering, Ian stretched out his palm.

Whoosh. A flame sprouted from his hand.

!

Lucis eyes blew wide open.

She looked between Ian and the fireball, then sputtered,

Youre a.Mage?

Considering her usual temperament, this should be her maximum shock.

She didnt know this either?

Feeling Ians gaze on her, Miguel shrugged his shoulders.

Its a secret. Whats there to fuss over.

Everyone sure knows how to keep their mouths shut.

With a snort, Ian looked back at Luci.

Thats right. Im a mage. Well, half of one anyway.

Now Lady Lucy has become privy to the secret as well. It feels like weve grown closer.

Lucifer.

Yes, not Lady Lucy, but Lucifer.

Despite her attention being completely stolen by the fireball, Luci still corrected Miguels words.
