Necropolis

Mission Completed: The Final Battle

Player received magic book Slayer of Demons . 　

This information flashed across Link's field of vision . In his eyes, this magic book had a dark crimson cover . It flew across his eyes and eventually landed in a spot at the bottom right corner of the "game interface . "　　　

There were already two magic books in store from this area . One of them was Essence of the Flame, and the other was Flame of Purification . They were all books regarding fire elemental spells .

The in-game system rewards nothing but good stuff . I must study them well after returning to the Ferde Wilderness, Link thought . 　　　

At that moment, Joseph could be seen carrying Wavier on his back and throwing his hideous body onto the ground . A loud thud could be heard .

Wavier had an indestructible soul and was thus still alive . However, he kept silent the entire time . There was no sign of life in his eyes nor did he show any expression . There seemed to be no vitality running through his body .

"I can't wait to tear him to pieces!" Joseph gritted his teeth as he said . There were tens of thousands of corpses in the Necropolis . It was simply a place filled with the stench of fresh blood and corpses . This tragedy was caused single-handedly by this fallen Magician right in front of their eyes!　　

Wavier then snickered, "Holy Knight, you are but a weak tag along . If not for Link, do you really think I would have lost?"　　　

He then stared at Link and shouted, "If not for your stupid potion, how could you have defeated me? You wouldn't! This was not a fair right! You guys better hope that I never escape, because if so, I will show you true despair!"

Thud! Joseph walked forward and kicked Wavier in the face before shouting, "You b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Look at all the innocent lives that you killed . Do you think this is a game? How can you still be talking about wins and losses? Do you really think a few words will be able to get you out of this predicament? How childis.h.!.+ I am telling you now . The moment you chose to walk down this path, you were doomed to fail!"　　

Romilson then stared at the fanatical Wavier with a tinge of fear as he said, "This is truly a lunatic . We might have to find a way to destroy his soul . "

Milda then shook her head and said, "Alright, Romilson . Do not let fear take control of your heart . We have no need to research into dark magic just so we can destroy the soul of an evil Magician . His fate will be eternal imprisonment!" At this moment, Milda's face was extremely pale, almost to the point of being translucent . She was extremely weak as well . If not for Romilson's support, she could not even stand .

She controlled three Golden Tree Spirits during the battle and stayed at the forefront of the fight the entire time . If not for her valued support and Romilson's Defensive spell, Link would not have been able to focus on his fight against Wavier .

In essence, the success of this mission was largely due to the two High Elves as well .

This time, Link had also paid a great price for his success . He drank the Blessings of the Red Dragon Queen potion . At this moment, the effect of the potion had already pa.s.sed, and as promised, he was cursed with the Elemental Rejection State .

He tried to construct a Gla.s.s...o...b..spell . However, the fire elementals did not seem to respond to his calls, causing the spell to fail . The elements seemed to be rejecting him as though he was the plague . 　

One full year of this terrible state, causing all elemental spells to lose effect . This is slightly too long . It seems like I have to research into other spells to make up for this major decrease in power . Link sighed . 　　

His power would decrease by an estimated 90% . Amongst the powerful spells in his a.r.s.enal, he only had two spatial spells that he could use .

"This place is not safe . There are undead everywhere . Even that succubus might be near . Let's go back," Link said . 　　

Everyone nodded . Apart from Nana and Romilson, all of them were completely exhausted . Their only thought was to return to somewhere safe before taking a nice bath and a long comfortable nap .

"What about this Necropolis?" Romilson asked .

"Burn it . "　

Ten minutes later, the entire Necropolis was engulfed in a sea of flames . Link and the group then headed straight towards the airs.h.i.+p . 　

Around three miles into their journey, they heard the whirling sound of engines above them . The airs.h.i.+p seemed to have found them and took the initiative to welcome them back into the safe haven .

Upon boarding the airs.h.i.+p, everyone still remained silent . They had just seen true h.e.l.l on earth and just wanted some time alone to recollect themselves .

The Yabbas also kept their volume to a minimum . They looked at Link and the rest with a respectful gaze . 　　

The two priests then started healing their wounds and replenish their lost energy . 　　

Link then took this chance to return the Statue of Saint Rafael, "Thank you, it was of great help . "　　　

The priests then shook their heads and said, "You have done a great deed for the World of Firuman . This means nothing . "

Link merely smiled and did not want to continue the conversation . He said, "I will get some rest . "

The priests then gave him his personal s.p.a.ce .

No one spoke for the entire journey . Around an hour later, the airs.h.i.+p returned to the Scorched Ridge in Ferde Wilderness .

The a.s.sa.s.sination mission was already completed . Hence, there was no need to keep the airs.h.i.+p a secret . The airs.h.i.+p brazenly stopped in the middle of Scorched Ridge and attracted a lot of onlookers .

Amongst them . Master Grenci and Master Ferdinand were present as well . They glanced at the airs.h.i.+p with a worried expression . When they saw Link and the rest of the team unscathed, their faces brimmed with happiness . However, the moment they saw Joseph exiting the airs.h.i.+p with Wavier in his arms, their expression turned serious . 　　

It was time to deal with this Necromancer .

After greeting the Master Magicians, they walked towards the Mage Tower . The Yabbas were naturally given good service and treatment . As the lord of the territory, Link made some arrangements for everyone before returning to his own room to rest . 　

Upon reaching his room, Link realized that Celine was already lying in wait for him . 　

"You're back . " Celine heaved a sigh of relief and quickly walked forward . She had an expression of relief and joy as she said, "Here, I have already prepared a warm bath for you . "

Link suddenly felt a long-lost warmth from his heart and entered the bath upon Celine's signal . 　

It was a wonderful night . What started off as Link's private bathing time became a couple's affair, which finally ended on Link's bed .

Link cared about nothing that day . He spent quality time with Celine and rested as much as he could . 　　

The next morning, Link felt rejuvenated as he opened his eyes, as though he was a changed person .

He lay on his bed as he caressed Celine's supple body . He then looked out of the window as the golden sun rays graced the green fields of the Ferde Wilderness . A few plowing magic puppets were still hard at work while residents were either farming or doing construction work . The s.p.a.cious pathways in the bustling city area were filled with merchants from all around the world .

Ferde Wilderness was bursting with energy . 　　

At this sight, the last cloud of darkness and trauma in Link's heart dissipated . 　　

As Celine had not woken up, Link crept stealthily out of the room . After was.h.i.+ng up, he enjoyed a delicious breakfast and went to his study room . His elemental energy was temporarily sealed . However, the war in the North was imminent; he had to find a quick replacement for his lost powers .

Summon magic books, Link commanded the in-game system .

In an instant, the magic books that he received from completing the missions given by the in-game system appeared in his field of vision . All of the books were crimson in color . Link did not carefully observe these books while he was going on the mission . Upon closer inspection, he realized that each of this books had an ancient yet striking runic symbol on them .

The first book The Essence of Flame had a symbol depicting an eye surrounded by flames . The second book Flame and Purification had a symbol in the shape of a flaming hand . The third book Slayer of Demons had a symbol of a sword entangled with a flaming dragon .

Link originally intended to read the books directly from the interface . However, after a while he thought, The library in my Mage Tower is basically empty . The books that I currently have are all common ones that can be bought from the market . I need a few books that are unique to my collection . Yes, I will copy out these magic books .

Link then took out a pen and paper and started using the Magic Transcription spell to copy the information onto the paper . When he first began, he copied the book as he read . Clearly, it was a simple task for him . 　

He laid casually and arched his legs on his table . A paper floated right in front of his eyes as the pen scribbled at high speed, emitting a swoos.h.i.+ng sound .

However, this relaxed state only lasted for about five minutes . Five minutes later, Link was completely absorbed into this magic book . He started off with the first book, The Essence of Flame . The perspective and content of the book were exceptionally unique and eye-opening . As the name implied, it was truly discussing the very essence of fire elemental spells!　

"Hey, this book did not mention anything about fire elements as well . It is all equations and theories…Oh my! These are the principles governing fire elemental spells!"　　　

When the first intricate magic equation appeared, Link was startled .

When one invested enough time into a certain field of magic, they would eventually arrive at the principles governing that magic . Link had been researching into spatial magic, and after a year and a half, he had finally grazed the principles governing them .

This magic book, The Essence of Flame, also started deducing from the very basic burning phenomenon . It started with a very simple basis before developing it logically, going deeper into the essence of fire elemental spells .

At the one-fifth mark, it had already reached an almost incomprehensible level . Link realized that he had to use all his might to even understand the content . 　

"This book might just be able to help me breakthrough this Elemental Rejection State, I need to read it carefully!" Link then sat in an upright position . He decided that this book deserved his full attention .

He started treating the book seriously . After half an hour pa.s.sed, Link had completely lost track of time and started delving himself fanatically into the wonders of the knowledge this book offered .

This continued for the next few days .

However, he also had to take care of Celine's feelings . He was not as insane as before and promised himself at least eight hours of rest every day, including some private time with Celine .

These innocent and happy times lasted for five whole days .

One evening, Link was just getting into the magic book when he heard voices beside him . The dimly lighted study room then turned bright . He raised his head and saw that it was Celine, who came in to illuminate the room for him . 　　

Celine then said, "I knew you would be absorbed in your research again . Someone is here to find you . "

"Oh, who is it?" Link was slightly confused and even a bit fearful . He was afraid of horrible news from the North .

"A stunning beauty," Celine teased .

"A beauty?" Link heaved a sigh of relief . He would be fine as long as it was not news from the North . However, he had seen many beauties in his time in Firuman . Celine, Herrera, Milda, Eleanor, Annie, and Lucy were all considered beauties . However, apart from Celine, all of them were purely friends . It was already 7 o' clock in the night; why would they find him at this time?　　

Celine then sighed . "It seems like you have forgotten her . If she sees you in this state, she must be sad . "

Link scratched his head before staring at the magic book in front of him . He had been reading this book, The Essence of Flame, for a long time . However, it was extremely tedious, and he was only done with a third of its contents . It was probably not enough to finish reading this book in a month's time . Furthermore, this was only the first one; he had two more to go .

Anyway, he was determined to put all his energy into this research . He had no interest in the rest . 　

Celine knew how Link was like and invited the person in without his consent, "Felina, please come in . "

Upon hearing the name, Link was reminded of something .

Felina, the Red Dragon Warrior . They had once fought alongside each other in the Dark Forest . He remembered that she promised him a trip to the Dragon Valley in a month's time . Thinking back, it had been way more than a month by now . 　

Felina entered the room . She a.s.sumed the look of a human-race girl . Naturally, she was still extremely tall at 6'2" . There was also a hint of lethargy on her face . 　

Upon seeing Link, she said, "I'm sorry that I am late . There had been some issues in the Dragon Valley . Master Link, if you are free, I hope that you can accompany me to the Dragon Valley immediately . "

Link frowned as he said, "What happened?"　　

"I have no idea . I only know that the balance in the World of Firuman is being destroyed . The queen believes that you have the capability and qualifications to be informed of this matter . She was the one who sent me to pick you up . "

That sounded extremely serious . Link thought for a moment before he put away the three magic books of fire he had copied and said, "Alright then, I will make some arrangements, and we can set off!"
