Unlike Effir, who faced Artis before her eyes, Ryu Han-bin watched the battle from a third partyâs perspective.
That was why he could see what Artis did.
After dodging Effirâs Magic Swordsmanship and the frostbite attack using the Blink magic spell to teleport away, he counterattacked with frost magic Frozen Blast.
He didnât get it at first glance.
Blink and Frozen Blast were top-level magic above level 80.
âHow? Wasnât it said that magic spells above level 75 could only be used if it has the fire attribute?â
After a while, Han-bin understood the situation.
âOh, thatâs how they fought?â
The Guideline answered his query.

[Ring of Blink
A magic item that allows the wearer to use level 80 magic, Blink.
Terms of use: Lv. 82. Range: 15 meters Number of uses: 10/25 times.]
[Cold Winter Ring
A magic item that allows wearers to use level 83 magic, Frozen Blast.
Terms of use: Lv. 85. Range: 35 meters Number of uses: 15/30 times.]
It was not the magic of Artis himself, but the power of two magic rings on his left hand.
Given that the number of uses was considerably exhausted, he seemed to have practiced using it repeatedly.
Kibie nodded her head blankly.

âI see, the world has changedâŠâ
In the past, when there was no invasion of the Devil, there were no such things as Magic Tools.
Therefore, if Artis sealed all of the attributes with only one left, he would have become a half-Mage.
But now?
It was an era in which all kinds of Magic Tools and Artifacts were gained from the dungeons.
âEven if a Mage can only use fire magic, isnât that a level up?â
Artis grinned as he raised his left hand.
âThen I can use Magic Tools according to my level.â
The sparring between the two continued.

out of Effirâs small body.
Artis continued to fight back by combining his magic and Magic Tools.
A series of explosive sounds rang out.
Boom!
Leon Hart, who was watching the battle, was impressed.
âHeâs clever. Thatâs enough to cover his weaknesses.â
Of course, there were disadvantages to that method.
Only prepared Magic Tools could be used, so other than the fire attributes, the attributes could only be used limitedly.
However, he didnât think of the fact that Artis could use magic unavailable to him using Magic Tools.

If he wanted to replace all those magics with Magic tools, he would lack Magic Tools though the wagon was full of them.
His main source of firepower was fire-based magic, and whenever the situation became unfavorable, Artis could escape the crisis with the power of Magic Tools.
âIâve always fought using fire magic. Other attributes have played a minor role.â
It was not difficult to adapt because it was a familiar tactic for Artis.
After fighting for such a long time, Artis waved his hand.
âLetâs stop here. Thereâs a level difference, so I canât do it anymore.â
Sheathing her twin blades, Effirâs eyes shone brightly.
âAmazing, Artis! Iâve never thought of doing that!â
She thought Artis had missed something really important.

But he overcame his weaknesses well.
âSince Iâm weak, Iâve been struggling. I shouldnât be a nuisance to the team.â
Ryu Han-bin also raised a question as he approached.
âBut why have you been away for so long? According to Kibie, the attribute-sealing procedure only takes about a day.
Artis shrugged his shoulders.
âIt took me a long time to shop. Itâs not easy to get the right tools for different situations.â
Still, he could have purchased most of the artifacts at the center of the continent.
âI put all my payments in front of the Church of Darkness. Itâs great to have a big sponsor.â
Suddenly, Leon Hart frowned.
Updated from lightnovelpub[.]com
âWait, how much did you buy?â
Artis showed the inside of his clothes by lifting his robe.
â⊠This much?â
The party coughed momentarily.
âCough!â
âWhatâs that look like?â
There were three magic necklaces and three or four magic rings on each finger.
His bracelets, anklets, and belts were all Magic Tools.
There were dozens of emblems that were usually worn alone or with one other.

Effir talked as if she was sick of it.
âDo I look like a parvenuâŠ?â
Well, since Artis was so handsome, he was not parvenuâŠ
âYou look like a gangster rapper full of swag.â
âSwag? Whatâs that, Han-bin? Like Earthâs Aura or mana?â
âYeah, not like that, but if you have a lot of it, you can make a lot of money.â
ââŠ?â
Leon Hart felt confused. He touched his forehead.
âAh, Iâm sure the finance department will hear that. How much is that?â

Regardless Artis found a way for him to remain strong.
It was a bit expensive, however.
Kibie smiled vaguely at Leon Heart, which was filled with sorrow.
âShould we⊠congratulate him?â
* * *
Even while Han-bin and his party were growing their strength, the Church of Darkness was moving steadily.
First of all, the strongest religious leaders scattered throughout Latna were brought to the main mountain to face the Top Three.
It was quite dangerous.
If a large-scale military moved out of the blue, the Continental Top Three could notice it.

However, the power of the Church was influential enough to gather them secretly.
It was dangerous to move hastily without a definite cause.
Fortunately, that point was solved easily.
The Church of Darkness was already rallying strong individuals from all parts of the continent to Scotaskia to save Leon Hart, the Orderâs kidnapped Head.
At first, they thought they had wasted money for nothing, but it was a blessing in disguise.
Latna was not a world where communication had developed.
Therefore, it had not yet been reported to them that Leon Hart had already been found.
Without knowing anything, they rushed to rescue the Templar Lord to gain honor and glory.
Thanks to that, they were able to concentrate all their forces on the main mountain naturally.

They secretly sent messengers to the five other Churches serving the Goddesses of Latna.
Kybriel of Darkness descended on Latna in the body of an incarnation.
-Faithful followers, her will had come to the world, so learn the truth about Latnaâs affairs and fulfill the saintsâ duty!
Althea of light, Sorondi of the earth, Rhamniana of water, Preleu of wind, and Yessen of fire.
The five Goddesses selected senior priests and sent envoys to Scotaskia.
It was to verify the authenticity of the message.
For the other Churches, it was not an easy story to believe.
Especially in the Yessen Church case, it was even more so because they had a case of almost being tricked by the âAliensâ fake incarnation.â
Fortunately, the Church of Darkness had three pieces of evidence to show them.
Visit lightnovelpub[.]com for a better experience
The first one was the Sacred Heart of the Darkness.
The object itself could not be presented as evidence because Ryu Han-bin had taken it, but they could show Leon Hartâs testimony that he had watched the scene himself.
His remarks as a person blessed by the Goddesses had considerable credibility.
The second was the presence of the Wyvern, who gained intelligence through the grace of the incarnation.
The Wyvern, a member of a primitive Dragon race, was almost as wise and knowledgeable as Dragons.
That could never happen unless it were a miracle done by a Goddess.
Kybriel was the creator of all Dragons, which meant it was a sure sign that Kibie was the incarnation of Darkness.
The third evidence was that Earth Dragon, Saltus, was placed under the auspices of Hollien the Transcendental.
As followers of the Dragonsâ creator, various methods of dealing with Dragons were handed down to the Church of Darkness.
Visit lightnovelpub[.]com for a better experience
Among them, there was a technique that even a Dragon over 500 years old could be tied up with.
Dozens of powerful high-level individuals used their strength to seal the power of Saltus.
Even if he returned to his main body, the seal was still strong enough to overpower it.
Saltus had no choice but to give up his resistance and cooperated with the Church instead.
He also promised to testify that the Top Three had performed the ascension.
That should be enough to prove the descent of the incarnation.
Feeling that it was time, Castalo II contacted Han-binâs group.
* * *
They were in an inn in Serhithran, a forbidden city in the Ice-Flame Forest, that day.

Leon Hart waved the letter from the Church.
âTheyâre telling us to come back to Scotaskia.â
To win the cooperation of the five Churches, the Church of Darkness must persuade the envoys.
But if Kibie, the incarnation, Leon Hart, and Effir were away, the Church wouldnât be able to do that successfully.
âSo is this the end of the actual mission? Or are we coming back from the main mountain?â
Leon Hart politely replied to Kibieâs question.
âWe donât have to. Weâve done everything we can do here.â
Ryu Han-binâs skills had also risen significantly due to his combat with various high-level monsters.
His control over Aura had become much more proficient, especially when operating his Valtaraâs Fighting Spirit.
The most up-to-date novels are published on lightnovelpub[.]com
At the moment, he could control nearly 80% of the skill.
Kibie also clearly made her combat capabilities imprinted on the body of the incarnation.
Originally, it was the body of a Valtara female warrior, so her potential was extraordinary.
She had currently become a level late-90s Aura user.
At that point, however, their growth had once again stopped.
âFrom now on, we probably wonât be able to level up artificially.â
Will I become stronger if I continue to train steadily?
That was not usually the case.
It was common to become stronger in a short period, remain in that state for a while, and become stronger in a short period again when an opportunity came.

If they gathered experience points steadily, the level of Aliens became rather abnormal.
âThat was the limit to being strong, as others say. Itâs time to find your way out of it.â
Leon Hart looked around and continued.
âHas the speed of your level increase slowed down?â
Artis and Effir nodded.
âI think so.â
âYes, I thinkâŠâ
The growth of the two Dragons with energy absorption had also decreased significantly.
Effir became a level 94 Magic Swordsman, and Artis had become a level 91 Mage.

However, Artis used an expedient.
At that point, the necessary amount of energy they needed had increased too much.
Even if dozens of equivalent-level monsters were killed, it still wouldnât be enough to gain a single level.
Their efficiency was no longer viable.
Besides, there were other problems.
âAfter level 100, it will become harder to drive energy towards Artis and Effir.â
The difficulty of killing an opponent in a single blow and overpowering them without killing them was completely different.
No matter how strong Ryu Han-bin and Leon Heart were, it was not enough to voluntarily stack dozens of powerful monsters above level 100.
The limit in hunting was reached around level mid-80s.
It would be a waste of time to stay in the Ice-Flame Forest any longer.
âYeah, I donât know what Hollien or Garhan are doingâŠâ
Kibie stood up.
âLetâs go back to Scotaskia.â
