Chapter 886 - Progress

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Seeing Nando’s reaction, Furan reviewed what she did and decided that she was being too hasty. She had come straight after learning the message from another sorcerer on the road. It did not occur to her that it was impossible for Nando, who should have been away from Holm for a while, to learn the intelligence earlier than she did.

“Has anything happened?” After a brief moment of being stunned, Fernando immediately realized that new intelligence had been delivered from Holm to Rentato, so out of concern, he asked in a low voice. It was much easier for the legends to communicate than it was for the common sorcerers. For example, the two Excellencies of Cabin of Palmeira talked almost on a daily basis.

Keeping her right hand on the misty window of the nightmare wagon, Furan thought for a moment and believed that she could get more details from Nando. So, she smiled and said, “A while earlier, the Liege of Death killed ‘Graceful Angel’ Francois in the Radiance Church and destroyed the transmission circle. Such a terrifying outcome made people wonder if he had regained his top legendary capabilities. So, none of the legendary knights of Holm dared to come out again, and the new pope had to send the Sword of Truth back with two saints.”

After a brief pause, she said, “In such a way, the pressure we suffer has been greatly reduced. We’ll be on the winning side if Gregory does not leave Lance.”

“What? The Graceful Angel was killed in the Radiance Church?” Antec exclaimed in surprise before Fernando said anything. With the support of the divine power circles of the cathedral, Saint Francois could have resisted a top legend for a while. Had the Liege of Death approached the demigod level after his resurrection? Even if he didn’t, he had to have returned to his peak in the past, hadn’t he?

Fernando also found it hard to believe. He had only been away for half a month, and why had the situation changed so fast? The organization was keeping a low profile after attacking Kritonia and Alfonsol, but how was the highest leader of the Church in Holm killed all of a sudden?

Suddenly, he realized that a secret agreement had to have been reached in the battle against Kritonia. The targets of the Liege of Death and the old fox included not just the Heart of Time but also the Graceful Angel. They intended to create chaos and cooperate with this side.

Looking at Fernando’s changing expression, Furan thought of something. “Do you know what is going on?”

“I’m not sure. It’s been half a month since I left Rentato. The Graceful Angel was still as alive as ever back then.” Fernando did not propose his speculation.

Furan also did not think that a seventh-circle sorcerer who did not have a notable background could know that. So, she nodded, “Do you know anything else about the Liege of Death?”

“Earlier, our Union attacked the Heart of Time together with the Liege of Death.” Fernando felt that it was necessary for him to raise some valuable intelligence in case he was underestimated.

Furan chuckled. “Wasn’t it the Witch of Iceland and the Eye of Curse?”

Yours is just a wretched group without even a legend. Stop overselling yourself.

“I was there.” Not in a good mood, Fernando said straightforwardly.

“What?” Antec was even more surprised than Furan.

Furan did not lose her calmness now that Antec shouted out his surprise. She smiled thoughtfully and asked, “Nando, can you tell me the details?”

Her eyes were wet and full of charm. Although the Lord of Frigidity would inform the legends of the coalition army of the major events, he was not close to the Stellar Mentor and certainly would not tell him all the details.

Fernando did not intend to hide in the first place. He told the basic story and concluded, “… At that time, the Liege of Death behaved as a level-three legend; otherwise, Kritonia wouldn’t have escaped.”

As for whether or not the Liege of Death was pretending, he was not certain.

Furan listened quietly and asked about the details now and then. In the end, she nodded. “Your intelligence is very valuable.”

Suddenly, her face was rigid, and she sounded old. “Little girl, we are interested in what you said. We hope that you can come to my demiplane.”

“Yes, Your Excellency.” Fernando was stunned before he suddenly realized who the person who had just controlled Furan’s body was. In Aalto, only the Stellar Mentor could have done that without causing a conflict.

Furan shivered hard and looked around in confusion. Then, she rubbed her head and said, “Did my teacher invite you just now?”

“Yes.” Fernando respected the legends for their strength, but he was not intimidated by them. He seemed rather calm.

Furan smiled like the peaceful moonlight at night, which was entirely different from her usual look. Not only was Antec, a rookie, lost in it, but even Fernando was also rather amazed.

“For our teacher and for us, the issue about the Liege of Death is one of the most important things.” Furan smiled.

Damn! This chick has combined illusion, divinity, and her own vibe so perfectly? Fernando struggled to move his eyes away from Furan’s face, speculating that she was using illusion. In the meantime, he smiled. “I know that Prince Dracula, the primordial dragon of time, the elven queen, the Mother God of the Earth, and the Master of the Boundless Ocean are not sorcerers.”

Even though there were plenty of legends among them, the sorcerers were actually playing a supportive role in the war and could not decide their fate. At such a moment, the “Liege of Death” who had recovered his strength was like a gift from the Goddess of Fortune!

Furan was briefly stunned, not expecting Nando to be unaffected by herself. She smiled and thought that the countryside girl had a lot of potentials!

After only one moment, she had a new understanding and more interest in Nando than physical ones.

“You are very smart.” Furan touched Fernando’s face with her right hand. “Let’s go to my teacher’s demiplane now.”

It was not until the two of them were melted into the mist that Antec was back to himself. He sighed. “Furan is only into girls. Should I borrow the transformation belt from Fernando for my use? No, she knows that I am a man.”

He turned to the mist and said enviously, “Fernando was involved in such an important matter. It’s so much better than staying in Aalto and helping with the maintenance of the dreams…”

……

In the demiplane of “Starry Ocean”, none of the legendary sorcerers revealed their real appearances, but only affected the space and showed unusual phenomena. For example, on Fernando’s left side was a scorching fireball that felt like the sun, and on his right was a weird pattern made of the four main elements.

In their eyes, Fernando, who was not even an archmage, was not qualified to meet them at all. They wouldn’t have bothered to talk to him had it not been for the Liege of Death. That was the pride of legends of the Magic Empire.

“That’s all I know.” Fernando described the event in greater detail and stressed the old fox’s role, but he did not mention Douglas’ whys and his current research.

Right before him, the brilliant stars swirled and constituted into a fateful nebula. From the nebula, an old but clear voice said, “It’s much more valuable than I imagined.”

The Stellar Mentor was much more polite than the other legends, but he did not mention what the specific value was.

“I know why you’ve come to Aalto. We won’t stop you from taking sorcerers away with you. There are indeed too many people here.” The Stellar Mentor showed their attitude on behalf of other people.

Fernando was secretly relieved. That was the purpose of his intentional leakage. Although it was not important for the legends that he was persuading the talented sorcerers to leave, it was still possible that some of them would turn him into an experimental material someday when they were in a foul mood. Now that he had the endorsement of the Stellar Mentor, there would be no problem. His divinity told him that the Stellar Mentor would have accepted his request, but he did not expect that the guy would mention it before he asked.

Although he was impatient and mean, Fernando was not a reckless man. He had thought of and perfected most of the details.

After Fernando left, the nebula asked the twisting darkness nearby, “Did you notice anything?”

The darkness was vaguely showing the scenery of the abyss.

“There are signs of body modification, and she lacks the unique feminine qualities.” Natravos, the Lord of Abyss, was one of the best experts in body modification, only slightly secondary to Viken, the King of Calamities who once stood at the cutting edge of the field.

“Do you mean that she might not be a female?” the Stellar Mentor asked.

“It’s a possibility.” Natravos grinned hideously. “If you don’t mind, I can give her a test. Such a violent girl fits my appetite very well.”

“Forget it. We cannot afford any accidents right now. She’s a Red Eye noble of the Asso Empire, and she may be related to the Liege of Death.” The Stellar Mentor shook his head and thought of his student. However, he soon forgot about such trivia.

The Sun King said loudly, “Does she deserve any attention? Are you too idle? There are so many important things to do!”

Therefore, the Starry Ocean regained the everlasting peace, and the minds of the legends communicated and sparkled.

……

In the days that followed, Fernando and Furan had a great time on the bed. Also, thanks to her introduction and Antec’s, he made friends with quite a lot of sorcerers who had potentials but could not improve in cities like Aalto due to the insufficiency of resources. The few female sorcerers that Furan introduced were particularly remarkable.

Those sorcerers were not very happy to leave at first. After all, many companions had been gathered here, and it was easy for them to exchange knowledge here as they were in Antiffler. However, after learning that the Liege of Death had “regained” his capabilities and did something great, they began to feel that the prospects of Holm were promising and changed their mind.

One day, Furan told Fernando that there was an elemental sorcerer in Holsava, a city to the north of Aalto, who hadn’t been doing very well. His name was Tuck. His talents were rather impressive, but he had been ostracized after pissing off Beto and was forced to live in Holsava City instead of Aalto.

Fernando immediately went there. Furan, however, was delayed by something else and was not with him for a couple of days.
