The next day, Yuira and Nurveus were in front of the shop. Yuira approached the shop and shrank it; Yuira turned around and said, "Alright, we will leave now." Yuira and Nurveus walked, leaving the city of Noblesser.
Two weeks later, Yuira and Nurveus were inside a very vast and dense forest. The two of them stopped to rest.
Yuira said, "The two of us have been walking for two weeks, and also..."
Yuira looked to the side and saw a cave there. "That place has a lot of Mana; most likely it is a Dungeon."
"Do you want the two of us to go inside?" Nurveus asked.
Yuira gave a small smile, "Of course; besides, we are short on ingredients for Potions." Yuira and Nurveus walked into the Dungeon.
A few minutes later, Yuira and Nurveus walked inside the very dark Dungeon. "Ah~, this Dungeon only contains Lizards," Yuira said in a lazy and bored tone.
The two of them stopped because they saw two paths in front of them. Yuira, seeing that, said, "We will split up."
Nurveus nodded. Yuira walked toward the right path while Nurveus went to the left.
A few minutes later, Yuira saw Mana Crystals in very large quantities on almost all the walls.
Yuira approached one of those Mana Crystals; Yuira touched the Mana Crystal, and he felt a lot of Mana from that Mana Crystal. "Wow, this is a High-grade Mana Crystal, but... Why are all the monsters here only Lizards?"
Yuira shook his head and said, "Never mind, I don't care; besides, I am getting a large amount of high-grade Mana Crystals." He immediately took all the Mana Crystals he saw.
Meanwhile, Nurveus was in a very vast place. There was a large hole above that looked like the mouth of a mountain; at the end of the wall, there was a Dragon whose scales were yellow and was very large in size, and that Dragon was sleeping.
Nurveus asked, "A Dragon? Is he the boss of this Dungeon?"
She began to walk toward that Dragon.
Even though the Dragon was sleeping, he felt the power of another very strong Dragon, which made him wake up.
The Dragon saw Nurveus walking toward him; feeling danger, the Dragon quickly blew his fire breath at Nurveus.
Nurveus manifested a water wall and blocked the Dragon's fire breath; water vapor appeared in front of Nurveus's Water wall, and Nurveus kept walking forward. As Nurveus got closer to the Dragon, the Dragon quickly flew around Nurveus.
Nurveus manifested water orbs and shot them at the Dragon, but the Dragon blew his fire breath, which made Nurveus's water orbs start to evaporate. Nurveus, seeing that, accidentally had her pupils turn red; the Dragon, feeling a very serious threat, immediately flew toward the hole above, but Nurveus swung her arm like a sword horizontally. A giant water slash appeared and quickly decapitated the Dragon's head, which made it die instantly, and its body hit the Dungeon wall. Nurveus's pupils started to turn back to black; she began to lift the Dragon's body.
A few minutes later, Yuira and Nurveus returned to the starting point.
Yuira, seeing Nurveus carrying the Dragon corpse, immediately approached her, then he put the Dragon into his Inventory, and Yuira said, "Alright, now we will go to Vilka city."
Two weeks later, in Vilka city, Yuna, who had just arrived, said enthusiastically, "The Academy is on break, and we are finally vacationing in this city."
Yuna's female friend, who had long black hair and red irises, was named Alicia Revnant.
With her flat face, Alicia followed Yuna. Not long after, they heard a voice, "Y-Yuna, Alicia... Waiiiit~"
Yuna and Alicia turned around; they saw their friend, who was a male with brown hair and gold irises, whose name was Vin Swazart, running toward them in a state of exhaustion.
When Vin was in front of them, Yuna said, "Hey, Vin. Shouldn't you be faster than us? You are a Light Magic user," Vin answered with panting breath, "Eve... Even though I am a Light Magic user... that Mana is very little."
In another area, Yuira and Nurveus were at the reddish-brown Vilka city gate. Yuira looked at Nurveus, "You know? If we used the fastest path, then we would arrive in two weeks at the latest, but I chose a farther path to look for some ingredients."
The two of them heard a shout, "Finally, I've reached this city!"
They immediately looked to the side and saw Velt shouting while spreading both of his arms.
Velt turned his head and saw the two of them, and he said, "Ah..."
A few minutes later, at a nearby cafe. The three of them sat on outdoor chairs. "I didn't think we would meet again," Velt said.
Yuira smiled and drank his coffee, "Yes, you're right."
Not long after, all the residents who were inside the buildings began to come out. They all crowded at the edge of the road; Velt, seeing that, asked, "What is wrong with them?"
Velt looked toward Yuira, "Should we go see?"
"Alright," Yuira answered.
Yuira, Velt, and Nurveus stood up, and then they approached the crowd.
Velt tapped one of the residents' shoulders and asked, "Excuse me, what is happening here?"
The person looked toward them, "Don't you know?"
The three of them shook their heads. Then the person said, "This is the return of the Saint and also the members of the Holy Temple from their journey."
In another area, Yuna, Alicia, and Vin saw the crowd of people at the edge of the road. Yuna tilted her head and asked, "What is happening there?"
Alicia answered in a cold tone, "I heard a Saint and members of the Holy Temple are coming." Yuna, hearing that, got excited and said, "Vin, take us to the top of that building."
Vin, hearing that, was shocked, "Ehhh~?!"
Vin inevitably began to lift Yuna and take her to the roof of the building, then he went down and took Alicia to the roof of the building. From a distance, they saw people wearing white robes, and there were two people walking in front. Those two people were the Saint and his guard. The Saint's appearance was that of a man in his 30s with blonde hair, and he had green irises and wore a white robe with gold lines. The guard's appearance was black hair with orange irises, wearing a black hood, and there was a black sword and scabbard.
In another area, Yuira, Velt, and Nurveus passed through the crowd, and then they saw the Saint waving his hand while smiling.
Velt, seeing that, said, "So that's him, the Saint they were talking about."
Suddenly, a man with black hair and golden-yellow irises, while holding a sword, came forward and was behind the Saint and his Guard from a distance; the person began to throw it at the Saint's head.
When the Saint turned around, and the sword almost hit his face, his Guard quickly caught the sword. The members of the Holy Temple quickly caught him and made him fall to the floor; when the man wanted to shout, one of the holy temple members immediately covered his mouth.
The Saint, seeing that, approached the man, "Sir, why are you doing this?" he asked while kneeling in front of the man.
The man stared at the Saint with full anger, and the Saint was shocked and said, "Aren't you one of the disaster victims that I once helped?" The Saint began to hug the man and said with a sad face, "Forgive me, I don't know what my mistake was, but I will help you as best as I can."
The Saint made the man stand up and said, "I want to help you, but for the sake of justice, I must punish you."
The members of the Holy Temple began to take the man toward the Holy Temple; the Saint and his guard began to walk to the Holy Temple while smiling and waving their hands.
"Heh~... He's quite great; it seems he's at the Sword Expert level," Velt said.
Yuna, seeing that from a distance, was amazed, "Whoa! Look at that," she said while pointing toward the Saint's guard.
"That guard is so cool; he could catch that sword so easily... Is that an attraction?" Yuna asked with curiosity and wonder.
Alicia walked closer and said, "I don't think that was an attraction."
Yuna, hearing that, tilted her head and asked, "Really?"
Then Alicia answered, "I feel that person deliberately threw his sword toward the Saint."
Yuna turned around and said, "Alright... Vin takes us down. I feel hungry now." "Ehhh~?!" Vin said in a shocked and tired tone.
