Chapter 77 Return

  Finally arrived outside, it was deep night at this time, although the ruins were still desolate, but the fresh air entering my lungs made me feel like I had been suffocating in that tomb for days. Facing the cool breeze on the mountain, I greedily took two breaths of air, and only after calming down did I open the box.

  I extended my perception into the "Soul Pearl" and guided Nante's soul to fly out from inside. At this time, after Nante came out, he was like a child, happily spinning around me in two quick circles, laughing loudly several times, shouting: "I'm finally out! I'm finally out!"

  Watching his movements, I laughed and was truly happy for him. Nante finally spoke to me after he finished venting: "Alick, thank you for giving me the chance to reincarnate again. Now, I'll be leaving. Your kindness will always be remembered."

  I smiled and nodded, saying: "Teacher Nante, good luck to you, goodbye." Nante's soul began to fade away, and as he was about to leave, Nante said: "Alyric, I have one more request for you. You don't necessarily have to do it, just keep it in your heart."

  I said: "Teacher Nante, you say it, if possible, I will try my best."

  Nante said: "As long as you keep walking on the path of magic, you have hope to reach the peak of this world. If, I mean if, in the future you have the power to face God, then please avenge me against that woman who betrayed me. Although I say I don't care, it's because I have no way to deal with her."

  I said with some difficulty: "You mean your wife should have become a god? Sorry, Professor Nante, I'm a person without great ambitions, and I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. I just want to live out my life quietly, as for becoming a god, that's too far-fetched, it's almost impossible."

  Nan Te said: "I know, I just mentioned it, and didn't expect anything, but still please remember her name, she's called Dolly, a pastor. After all these years, if she hadn't died, she should have held a very high position in the church by now. With her intelligence, although not enough to become a god, at least she would have had the power of a pseudo-god. Keep it in mind for now, we'll talk about it later. Thank you again, Yalick, I'm leaving."

  Nante finished speaking and didn't even wait for me to respond. His soul had already transformed into a gentle breeze, disappearing before my eyes.

  I stretched out my hand to stop him, but it was too late. I withdrew my own hand that had been suspended in mid-air with a sense of desolation, rubbed my nose and muttered to myself: "What's the point of this joke? What's good about becoming a god? Being an immortal demon, I'd rather spend a happy lifetime with Furei."

  I left the magic space coordinates at the top of the mountain, stood up and walked down the mountain against the night wind, and finally arrived at the starting point when it was almost dawn.

  Terry's boat had been waiting there for some time, and as soon as I appeared on the shore, he spotted me. He ran far to come over, welcomed me aboard, and respectfully asked: "Your Highness, where are you prepared to go?"

  "After some thought, I said: 'First go to the harbor, I want to give something to Evan, then you can take me to see Sulina, I want to see her and the child.'"

  "A voice sounded outside the door: 'No need to be so troublesome, I've been eagerly waiting to know what gift you brought me?'"

  "I said with a wry smile, 'Evan, as an assassin, you don't seem calm enough, actually coming here in person. It's just a dagger, do you have to be so worked up?'"

  Ivan's figure appeared at the door, and Xilu also followed him in.

  "Aiwen said discontentedly: 'You're not an assassin, you don't know that a dagger is everything to an assassin, and yet you don't take it seriously, and even say "just a dagger"...'"

  I rolled my eyes and said, "Let's get one thing straight, this is the last time. Don't drag me to death's door again for no reason. I don't have that many lives to spare for your amusement."

  Evan heard that I had already obtained the dagger and immediately smiled all over his face. He stretched out one hand to ask for the dagger from me, and said with a flattering tone: "Definitely, absolutely no next time! Hand it over? Ha ha, I knew you were omnipotent and actually got it."

  I nonchalantly pulled out the dagger and threw it at him. Evan deftly caught the dagger in mid-air, beaming with joy as he played with it in his hand.

  Evan held the dagger in mid-air, making two false stabs. The dagger emitted a dark red glow in his hand. For a moment, the red light enveloped the blade of the dagger. When Evan stabbed out with the dagger, I almost saw the red light suddenly surge three inches forward, silently opening a circular hole in the wall of the cabin.

  "Good! That's a fine weapon indeed!" exclaimed Terry on the side with admiration.

  Evan looked at me with a hint of pride and said, "You don't know, do you? This dagger is called 'Soul Devourer', one of the most famous daggers in ancient times. Legend has it that this dagger can easily behead a giant dragon, and it also possesses properties of magic destruction and blood absorption, making it the ultimate dream weapon for assassins. I spent several years searching for its whereabouts. With this dagger, I have the confidence to take down any magician, even if it's Shute who appears unexpectedly."

  I smiled and shook my head, thinking to myself: "That's not necessarily true. A magician who has mastered spatial magic isn't that afraid of an assassin. The original owner of this dagger was killed by Nant even when his strength was suppressed by half due to the effects of a drug in Nant. Anyway, at least I have some confidence in dealing with Evin now."

  Although I thought so in my heart, I didn't say anything with my mouth. Evan's strength plus the dagger is indeed a headache for most magicians now, and I won't go to strike him down.

  Lucy said discontentedly beside him: "Brother, I don't even have a good weapon yet, how can you also want to help me think of a way?"

  Upon hearing Lucy's words, Evan immediately put away the dagger, as if afraid that his sister would be tempted by greed and have thoughts of snatching it. At the same time, he said to Lucy: "Your assassin skills and experience are still insufficient, a good weapon in your hands is just a disaster waiting to happen. When you truly deserve to own a good weapon, I'll help you think of a way then."

  Lucy grumbled and sat down alone, getting angry. Evan saw that his sister was really angry and had to run over to comfort her. Lucy hummed and ignored Evan, so in the end Evan had to give his sister the weapon he used before, and finally managed to placate Lucy.

  Terry and I stood by, watching the brother and sister bicker back and forth, both of us struggling to keep a straight face. Seeing that there was nothing more to be done, I instructed Terry, "Terry, let's go. We'll head directly to your queen. I have a surprise for her."

  Terry bowed respectfully and said, "As you wish, then let's set off."

  After a while, I felt the ship's body shake, and the huge sea boat left this deserted island, sailing with the wind and waves, heading towards the Kingdom of Krielan...
