Chapter 375

“Mana is the basic energy of nature. The mana here and there are essentially the same. If it doesn’t work, it is something related to space. Perhaps because of the new land and distance to it, space travel is impossible. As long as space movement magic such as teleportation and crystal balls are impossible. As long as those magic are impossible, no one would be able to use flying magic indefinitely...... it should be considered that it is impossible to fly.”
Bailipus is an NPC related to Middle Earth’s system, and his statement that space movement is impossible is probably the correct answer.
After that, Fernand shook his head and continued talking.
“Oh, I can tell you a little about the new continent expedition...... I think it would be discouraging, but I have to tell you in advance. Especially for magicians, polymorph won’t be easy to use. I don’t know about dragons. Even in the sky, there are obstacles. You will have to deal with them while flying, but it will be difficult to polymorph. Unless, as Bailephus-nim said, you can use fly magic and even use attack magic.”
“Phew-! So that means you can only go there by ship. Isn’t this quest almost crazy? It is driving us to our death.”
Luger cutoff Fernand’s words with a frown.
This time, Leeha had no choice but to agree.
What did it mean to not be able to move in space?
What if they went to the new continent once, especially when the ships were attacked along the way and they barely reached the new continent, and the ships became unusable?
‘It’s fortunate if it could be fixed, but if it couldn’t, it means that we might not be able to come back. No crystal ball, no fly or polymorph, you can’t even think of death and resurrection. Death and resurrection were on the closest village... in other words, if things don’t work out-’
[You cannot return to the current continent]
Until the new continent expedition is organized again, the stable connected route and the pioneering base were established.
In other words, they had to wait for the latecomers who were stronger than they currently were to rescue them.
It meant that they had no choice but to live as drifters on the new continent.
In an unknown land where there was no support, including items, and no place of safety.
“How did Fernand-ssi come back then?”
“We turned back. Before we all died. The other ships sacrificed themselves for me to survive.”
Fernand’s light remark made the atmosphere in the hall heavy.
There was a difference in growth between then and now, but the difficulty was enough that the Pioneering King gave up on going to the new continent.
“Amaaazing, then it’s going to give pioneering experience to the first person to reach the new continent? It’s good to accept it.”
“L-Lee Jiwon-ssi? To carelessly-”
“That’s right. Since when did we avoid risks? If you miss the quest opportunity, you will have to chase after my back like the other users. The rewards we received just by wiping out the Demon King’s army in the current continent. Did you forget about the great experience, stats, and continental reputation? Most importantly, there are still the descendants of the other heroes. There are many ways to connect the new continent to the current one. Middle Earth is always like that.”
“Kidd? It makes sense, but...”
Lee Jiwon and Kidd were just the beginning.
“To achieve justice, adversity is a matter of course.”
“I will go, oppa.”
Alexander and Ram Hwajeong as well. With their determination, they pressed the accept buttons.
“......Damn it, you guys. If all of you guys leave, I will have no one to fight in this continent.”
Lastly, except for Leeha, Luger has also accepted the quest.
In such an atmosphere, it was only natural for Leeha to take action.
“Your Holiness the Pope, then can I give this item to Fernand?”
“Hmm. So be it. I’ll ask for your cooperation, but there must be the power of the holy relic.”
Leeha held out the key he was holding to Fernand.
“As a member of the new continent expedition, I would like to ask for a favor. Please prepare well, Fernand-ssi.”
The moment Leeha pressed the accept button, the wings at the end of the key flapped for a moment.
[Old man’s key]
Effect: Buff – [Ahlo’s Protection] to the holder
Description: A gift from Ahlo to his earthly representative. There is a long conflict between the two theories, the spiritual symbol theory, which means opening the closed mind of humans, and the physical reality theory, which is a necessity to go to Upper Earth where Ahlo is in order to actually see the body of God.
The 77th pope, Leoreo XIII, left a will to present the treasures of the pope to those who end this confrontation, but the situation hasn’t been resolved yet.
“Of course. The deadline I received was two months. As we select candidates for the expedition, including descendants of heroes, and draw support from each country,
we ask you to be prepared. Sailing to the new continent will not be easy. That’s probably the purpose of the provided potions.”
Fernand briefly mentioned the contents of the quest and received the key.Follow the latest novels at novelhall.com
“Huh? I will go there?”
“I don’t know Korea’s geography, so what am I supposed to do? I have a few schedules where I go on inspections with my entourage, but I can finish them in no time. you will- hmm, go...... with me until then.”
Her voice, which had been speaking without hesitation, murmured at the end.
She was embarrassed to say it, so she hit her head with documents again. Looking at Ram Hwayeon’s red hair, Leeha was taken aback.
‘I was going to ask to postpone it- but what’s happening now- what does she think my situation is...?’
“Look, I didn’t tell you in advance, but I have trouble with my legs right now, so it’s a little-”
“Can’t you ride a limousine?”
“The limousine is not the problem-”
“Okay, wait. ......Done. I told Jachung to change it to the biggest van. To stretch your legs. Is that okay?”
“Huh? Oh?”
Did she just give the order to change the vehicle via whisper at that moment? Leeha couldn’t keep up with her speed.
“No, it’s something weird. Aren’t you supposed to go on inspection or something? That would be your company’s business.”
There may be something to do with trade secrets. But you want to go around with me, an outsider?
Ram Hwayeon’s answer to Leeha’s question was as expected, with her getting embarrassed at the end.
“I don’t care. You’re not the type to brag about anything you see or hear...... It might be better for you to take a look.”
“What?”
No. No, no. Anyway! I barely made it,
so keep your promise! Okay?”
“Cough...... first...... okay.”
Leeha couldn’t help but nod his head.
‘I can’t help it if this happens.’
A promise is a promise. She helped me so much.
In the end, Leeha had no choice but to whisper to Shin Nara.
Leeha: Nara-ssi!
Shin Nara: Oh, Leeha-ssi! What is it, what is it? Fernand-nim just came to the royal palace! They also ordered me to go to the new continent. Leeha-ssi will also go, right?
Leeha: Ah, yes, t-that’s how it turned out. Haha.
Shin Nara: Hii~ I will have to meet you and ask the rest. So why did you contact me? What did you want to say to me ‘after a long time’? Even if you are indifferent, you’re too indifferent.
Nara’s reprimanding voice made Leeha’s heart heavy. But not talking would be a bigger deal.
Leeha: Cough, perhaps...... do you have time other than Saturday?
Shin Nara: Our meeting? Do you want to postpone it?
Leeha: Ah...... yes, I’m sorry. There’s an emergency-
For a moment, it seemed as if Shin Nara’s expression could be seen with just her whispered words.
Nara’s voice, suddenly cut off, making Leeha more nervous than angry.
Leeha: Nara-ssi?
Shin Nara: ......Alright. I don’t think I can’t make it this weekend because of intensive training anyway...... it can’t be helped.
Leeha: No, that- next time, we can meet near Nara-ssi’s lodging or something! I will go there and-
Shin Nara: It’s okay. Why do you have to do that when you’re busy? I’ll also tell Bobae. Thank you for telling me in advance.

For Leeha, Shin Nara’s sadness was as scary as Ram Hwayeon’s anger. No matter what it was, it had the power to shut Leeha up.
‘Urgh......!’
Should I send another whisper? Should I say it’s because of Ram Hwayeon?
‘No, that- that’s just pouring gas on a burning house. Damn iiiiiit! I would rather! I would have rather fought Bluebeard! I’d rather do that! Damn it, damn it! Stupid, stupid!’
Leeha banged his head against the wall of Gaza City’s office.
“What are you doing? You already have a bad head, you’re making it worse.”
Ram Hwayeon tried to stop him with a joke, but Leeha did not stop blaming himself.
