The King of Elden does not die alone!

Probably neither of them could laugh at the other about this matter. After all, the hood of the pyroxene magician was something thicker than a blindfold.

"Actually, if you want, you can go with us."

Mia said.

Se Lian shook his head: "This body is just a physical phantom. It only survives because of the pyroxene and magic circle in this ruins."

“I can help you…”

"Shh——" Se Lian extended his index finger, asking Mia not to speak for the time being.

Seren had something to say to Mia, something to ask of her...

Her true body is currently imprisoned on the Weeping Peninsula thousands of miles away.

If Mia could find that body and take out the substance her soul had turned into - Originium.

Then finding a suitable body might help her escape the constraints imposed by the academy.

So that she can return to college.

But when he opened his mouth, Se Lian wanted to ask Mia for help again but he couldn't say it out loud.

"Am I relying too much on my apprentice..."

Such thoughts echoed in the magician's mind.

Even if Mia could find her Originium, she would not be able to find a suitable body to house it.

There is someone else who can help Selin regain a new body, and it is impossible for Mia to have any contact with that guy now.

Obviously, as an elder and a teacher, what you should do is to arrange a way out for your apprentice.

But now, he seems to be so dependent on his apprentice...

He even extended his unfulfilled wishes to his disciples.

This reminded her of those incompetent people who imposed things they themselves could not do on their descendants and forced their own wishes on others.

I've already asked you to 'please help me revive the pyroxene magic'.

She had already made a vow to defeat the demigod and make the starry sky start to flow again.

I, an incompetent teacher, still want to rely on her for more things.

Until the end of silence, Se Lian couldn't convince himself.

At least not now.

"Apprentice," she said, "you can't help me yet."

"So, please continue on the path of King Elden for now."

"If you feel sad or lost... I will always be here waiting for you."

Even Se Lian wanted to see how his disciple depended on him.

It is not that as a teacher, you have to constantly ask your apprentices for help in order to realize your dream.

Se Lian didn't think that the knowledge she taught Mia in just over a month was enough to make Mia cry with gratitude.

There was still too much knowledge that Se Lian had not had time to teach her about the origin of pyroxene magic and how to explore the starry sky in this world where the stars had stopped.

"As long as you want to take lessons, I am always willing to teach you."

"If the knowledge I have given you allows you to reach the lake of Lienia... and you still remember what I, your teacher, said, please come here again. I have something I want you to do."

Perhaps only then would Se Lian be able to comfort herself that it was she who enabled Mia to go so far in this border area, and that there was not such a great debt between her and Mia.

Only then would Se Lian feel at ease asking her to help him again.

"Yeah." Mia nodded.

Then he smiled playfully: "But it's too late today, it's not too late to say goodbye tomorrow."

As he said this, he said goodbye to the teacher who had finished teaching for the day, just like usual.

Se Lian looked at the girl's brisk steps and returned to his desk.

I opened the book that I had been writing since the day I accepted him as my disciple, and decided to give it a peaceful ending.

When Mia came to the ground, she announced to her companions that they were about to restart the journey.

"I'll just say it!"

The most out-of-character one, of course, is Patch.

"It's time to leave this place where my body is rusting."

When did you say...

Mia looked at this guy speechlessly.

But what was rare was that Curry, who had always been at loggerheads with Patch, did not fight back.

Instead, he stroked his chin and said, "Come to think of it, it is indeed time."

As a nomadic people, it is not normal to stay in one place for too long.

Especially when there was only one person before.

Without the care of a companion, a person is often in danger no matter where he is.

Kale looked around the camp.

Curry and Wilden put a lot of effort into making this place feel like home.

The awning above, the wooden wall blocking the gap, the crooked furniture...

Not only Kale, but even Mia felt reluctant to leave when she saw these things that could not be taken away.

"Will the magician come with us?" asked Kale.

In more than a month, the person who had the most contact with Seren was only Mia.

The rest of the people only knew that he was a mysterious magician who seldom appeared and never left his study.

Mia sat on a wooden box: "She stays here, we leave tomorrow." She stared at the empty air in front of her, in a daze.

No one could know what she was thinking.

But Kale could sense that Mia was feeling a little heavy-hearted.

The businessman looked up at the sky.

It was still an afternoon when the sky was bright even without a bonfire.

"Since we're leaving tomorrow, why don't we have a good meal?" he suddenly said.

Everyone, including the spirit wolf, turned to look at him.

-

Ever since.

at dusk.

A whole pink sheep was placed on the campfire in the camp.

The source of the whole sheep is naturally the three spirit wolves.

When the decision to hold the banquet was made, Kale specifically instructed the wolf to catch a fat female goat.

Mia will ride Torret and follow behind the spirit wolf.

Because once they successfully kill their prey, they cannot transport the sheep back quickly.

We must rely on Torrett.

When Mia brought the prey back to the camp, Kale began to process it skillfully.

Before dark, the fat ewe was already on the fire.

That was no ordinary fire.

It was Mia who controlled the temperature of the fire precisely.

With the same concentration as studying magic, she carefully controlled the flames surrounding the whole sheep.

She watched the whole lamb being slowly roasted, the skin gradually turning golden and crispy under the high temperature.

Mia stopped from time to time to let Kale sprinkle the roasted whole lamb with the precious spices he had collected for a long time.

Mia's precise control of the flames allows her to keep the outer skin of the whole lamb from burning while keeping the meat inside tender and juicy...

Almost done.

Kale suddenly remembered something: "How can we eat meat without wine?"

As he spoke, he rummaged through his luggage and found a small wooden barrel the size of a human head from among a pile of things for sale.

And at this time, Mia can't forget another person.

"Meimei!" Mia straightened up and shouted.

"Meimei! Melina! Time to eat!"

"Please don't call me that in public."

Melina, who had not appeared for a long time, sighed helplessly and appeared next to Mia.

But his face still looked calm.

"I'm calling you to come for dinner. It's been a while since we last saw each other." Mia waved her hand.

"Actually, I've always been by your side." Melina stood next to Mia.

Mia pouted.

Indeed, Melina was always by her side.

Whether she was taking a bath, sleeping, or taking classes with Teacher Seren, Melina was always by her side.

The minds and even the senses of both of them are partially connected.

Even without too many words, they are closely connected like flowers and green leaves.

But as long as Mia doesn't call her, Melina won't show up or speak.

Mia doesn't like this feeling of being the 'most familiar stranger'.

If possible, I would like to get closer to this eccentric cheap sister...

Melina twitched her nose slightly, then naturally looked at the whole sheep placed on the bonfire. "And I don't need... to eat."

Mia looked sideways at her proudly.

That look clearly shows that he is interested in barbecue, right?

The girl removed the flame, lowered her head and smelled the whole lamb. The roasted meat gave off a mouth-watering aroma.

'Wave--'

Currie pried open the cork of the wine barrel.

"Are you okay? Are you okay?!"

Patch, who noticed Mia stopped moving, was the first to come over.

Use a knife to cut the thickest leg of lamb and you can see its ripe color.

"Eat!" Patch, with a piece of cloth wrapped in his hands, stretched out his hand and tore off the largest piece of meat from the lamb's thigh.

The veins on Kale's head popped out: "You scoundrel!"

"You should come and eat soon! Otherwise it will be snatched away."

Mia waved to Kale, who was holding a wine barrel and looking for a cup.

"And Wilden! Come here!"

"Wait a minute." replied Kale.

Wilden came over, took off his equipment, and sat down on the opposite side of Mia.

"Well, do it yourself." Mia said bluntly.

Compared to Patch, the beautiful girl's way of eating is very reserved.
