The weapons I forge are absolutely flawless.

And then the next second.

“Who can help fix this hole?” Wiener turned around and asked.

"It's okay to leave it alone; even if it's breached, it will recover over time."

The main reason why Tilissa dared to let Felix experiment with confidence was because the outer wall was used to test the power of attacks.

Being able to penetrate it means having the ability to pierce through barriers at the level of a demon apostles and inflict damage upon them.

Instead of those things, why don't you share your thoughts?

“It feels like a key condition is still missing,” Viner said, becoming much more serious when the conversation turned to business. “I can sense the effect of the Sword Emblem on Gondorav, but it feels different from what I felt back then.”

"It's more like the priorities have been reversed, with my illusory dream becoming an auxiliary element, entangled around Felix."

As evidence, he did not receive the return flow from the Sword Emblem as he did when he was working with Anna.

In Wiener's view, the attempt ended in failure, but Tissa saw other possibilities.

"Does that mean you can use your influence to help others temporarily break through to a higher level?"

"Or perhaps, to let those who haven't grasped the power feel it in advance?"

There are countless ways to enhance physical strength and magical energy; the only difference lies in the efficiency.

This special ability, which could potentially amplify the power of others, was something Tilisa had never seen before.

Gundorlaf surprised her once again.

"If that's the case, this ability is probably more useful than you think."

Tilisa looked at Vina with a meaningful expression.

Previously, there had never been a dedicated Emblem user; most people, even if they mastered it, simply maintained a "use it as long as it's functional" attitude.

The reason is simple: a weak position lacks the potential to be explored further.

However, those who start from a high position find it difficult to advance further.

Just like the spear aura gained from breaking through to the Spear Saint realm, one must have a sufficiently powerful opponent and the support of battle intent to unleash its full potential. Only in this way is it possible to break through the threshold.

Most of the emblem wielders who can reach this level are top human experts of the seventh rank or above. Where are there so many opponents to find?

The demon is certainly qualified.

However, unless they are naturally compatible or possess a powerful weapon that can counter demons, they are unlikely to be a match for demons in a one-on-one fight.

For this very reason, many powerful individuals are not as strong as those who, by chance, master the power of the emblems in advance, as they are not as good at understanding the power of the emblems.

Having mastered both types of force, Feld's understanding of military force surpassed that of spear force.

However, this problem does not exist for Vener. He mastered it too early, and his foundation was weak enough. Not to mention demon apostles, even sixth or seventh-order magical beasts could put considerable pressure on him.

Under this premise, the mastery of the situation naturally improves rapidly.

If this experience could be passed on to others, it would be invaluable.

"Then wouldn't I be able to help Lisette and Jessica deepen their understanding of the situation?"

Wiener immediately understood the meaning behind those words.

“Why not?” Tissa asked in return.

"Well... I need to rest a bit more."

Encircling another force is much more difficult than encircling someone who offers no resistance; the part used on Felix alone is not so easy to recover.

"No rush, you have plenty of time to try it out." Tilisa patted Vina on the shoulder, then called to Jessica and headed up to the third floor.

"Where are you going?" Wiener asked.

"Inspect the seal of the dungeon."

"So, what about today's special training?"

“Your strength doesn’t rely on basic skills anyway, so special training won’t be very meaningful for you.” Tilisa glanced at Listy and said with a playful smile, “As for now, you should take care of your own affairs.”

Chapter 447 Lisette: How did you end up liking this kind of thing?

After the two left, only Vena and Lisette remained in the vast training ground.

Vena's gaze naturally fell on Lisette.

He had noticed it earlier; ever since he finished explaining how he acquired the ability of the Emblem of Fortune, Lisette had remained silent.

“Um…” Viner was just about to apologize for her previous concealment.

But Lisette was one step ahead.

She sat down with her knees together, then patted her knees lightly and said, "Come on, weren't we going to rest for a while?"

Looking into those calm eyes, Vena swallowed the words she was about to say and sat down next to Lisette.

Lisette gently adjusted his position so that he could lie comfortably on her lap.

"Aren't you angry?"

Wiener's voice carried a hint of apology.

“I am a little angry,” Lisette nodded in admission. “So, should I take it out on you?”

"Uh, if it will make you feel a little better."

Lisette raised her hand and swung it down forcefully. After Venus closed his eyes, she simply brushed his hair lightly so that it wouldn't be pressed down when he turned his head.

"You must have been prepared to be so frank, so I won't let you get away with it so easily."

"And I'm angry at myself. If I had gone with her, I wouldn't have given her the opportunity."

Lisette had long ago realized that the so-called avoidance of suspicion was just an excuse.

Whether it's a transformation technique or Vena's Mirror Flower Water Moon, it allows her to appear in Snowdrift Valley under different identities.

The reason the teacher didn't let her go with them was because she, unlike the other three, didn't have the ability to protect herself in an unfamiliar environment.

This can also be seen from the private lessons that Tissa gave after the three left.

Rather than various offensive techniques, she prioritized teaching defensive techniques.

"Then wouldn't I have to save both sides?"

"You are the only one who is poor!"

Lisette finally couldn't resist and lightly patted Vina's forehead.

"I remember now, when you went to the Knights for your apprenticeship, you were paired with Anna, weren't you?"

"...yes."

"Did anything else happen at that time?"

"Does taking her to Lumiel Village count?"

"stand up."

Vina obediently got up from his knees, while Lisette leaned against his shoulder.

"So it started from that time?" Lisette looked at Venus's profile.

“At least I’m not,” Wiener assured her.

“Every time you leave the academy, Anna is always there with you. When facing demons, your senior sister helps you. On the contrary, I haven’t done anything, yet I’m always the closest…it seems like Felix is ​​closer?” Lisette was halfway through listing when she suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Why are you suddenly bringing up Felix at a time like this? How can they be the same thing?"

If it were any other misunderstanding, that would be one thing, but to say it's Felix Wiener is truly unbearable.

Even if the physical distance between us is very close, it can't be negative!

"Senior, you didn't deny it either?" Lisette keenly noticed.

“That was because I didn’t have time to deny it.” Viner denied it repeatedly. “You can tell from how Jessica treats me, right? We don’t get along at all.”

"You womanizer."

Lisette didn't care about any of that.

"Yes."

Knowing he was in the wrong, Wiener dared not refute.

After finishing her rant, Lisette changed the subject: "What you said before might very well be true."

"what's up?"

"Something unexpected might happen to the hero."

"..."

Wiener remained silent.

He had no idea how much resolve it took for Risty, who had always idolized heroes, to accept this reality.

“Ah, I don’t mean the hero is definitely dead or anything like that. He might just be trapped in some special dimension and unable to escape,” Risti quickly added. “But the time before the demon god’s resurgence is running out, and if the hero can’t appear in time… many people will die.”

Once you get closer, many filters will be removed.

When she was a child, Lisette heard legends of heroes and thought that heroes were the saviors of the world.

After embarking on the path of magic, she was also filled with confidence that the hero would defeat the demon god.

Even when she entered the Silver Wolf Class, Lisette still firmly believed in this.

However, as her strength increased, she realized that the gap between a hero and a demon god was not as large as she had imagined.

The Silver Wolf Classroom contains countless records of fallen heroes, all of which demonstrate that even heroes cannot save everything.

Even if the hero arrives as scheduled and seals the demon god, how many people will fall on the path to paving the way for the decisive blow?

It could be other powerful humans, teachers or students from St. Freya Academy, or even anyone among them.

Even if she and Vener survive, how much longer can she stay with him?

“Everything we are doing now is to reduce the sacrifices that will be made later,” Wiener comforted her.

“I know,” Lisette nodded, “that’s why you want to forge a new holy sword and find a way that doesn’t depend on the hero.”

"Anna is essential for this."

The Valentin family's wealth is the greatest asset of the academy and the heroes, and also an important force for humanity in its fight against the demons.

"It's not that pragmatic, is it?" Wiener asked tentatively.

He did indeed make a lot of money through the Valentine Chamber of Commerce, and his cooperation and communication with Anna were extremely smooth.

However, in terms of actual value, it is indeed not as extravagant as the one time Feld was.

Using the Valentin Chamber of Commerce as a necessary reason would make even Viña blush.

“I’m trying to convince myself,” Lisette said, glancing at Venus with slight annoyance. “What? Are you trying to convince me too?”

The two persuasions have clearly different meanings.

Wiener quickly shook his head.

"None of us can guarantee that we'll live long enough to seal the demon god. It would be ridiculous to waste this last bit of time on jealousy and rivalry."

“If you’re the one who survives to the end… I’ll turn a blind eye to everything!” Lisette said, her cheeks slightly flushed.

If the demon god could be sealed, she believed that Vena's contribution would be enough to make him a hero of the continent.

This was something special, and she considered it a reward for the hero.

“If it were just you—” A thought flashed through Viner’s mind, but before she could utter these ominous words, she was silenced by a sharp glare from Lisette, and could only change her mind, “I mean, everyone else is safe and sound?”

"Then I want to be number one too!"

Lisette refused to budge an inch.

She hoped that after she was gone, someone else would be there to keep Vina company, and she also hoped that Vina would always remember her.

She would never give up this position under any circumstances.

“Since things have come to this point, then this demon god is truly doomed to die,” Vena remarked.
