late at night.
In the dormitory-style room, a pair of cobalt blue eyes quietly opened.
Ethan pulled out the anti-aging serum from his pocket and gulped it down.
"Kakami".
The bones made a crunching sound like chewing celery, and Ethan's body slowly lengthened.
After quietly changing her clothes, she put a pure white mask on her face.
perfect.
That way, even if they get caught, they can shift the blame to "Mr. Lamp".
whee.
Disillusionment.
Ethan spoke in a breathy voice.
With a wave of his wand, magic poured down like icy water, and he vanished from the spot.
"Mmm, fairy, delicious—"
One of the wizards rolled over, smacked his lips, and continued to sleep soundly.
Sweet dreams.
Ethan nodded and tiptoed away from the dormitory.
"Goo-ya".
The door opened and then closed again.
The sky is overcast tonight.
It completely obscured the moon.
Ethan quietly crossed the open space in the center of the camp and passed between the houses.
Arrive at the location of the ancient well indicated by the treasure map.
Ethan stuck it to the wall.
Sure enough, there were two guards standing by the well.
Nearby, there were people constantly patrolling back and forth.
The Disguise Spell only conceals one's physical form.
Even when you get close to someone, you will still be noticed.
The sheer number of guards demonstrates the importance they place on ancient magic.
Even if Ethan's spell allows him to do the splits, it's still difficult to overcome it head-on.
"Luna, we're counting on you."
Thinking this, Ethan wasn't nervous at all.
He trusted Luna; he was sure she could use her extraordinary intelligence to come up with a brilliant plan. *Bang!*
A loud explosion erupted from the other side of the camp!
A beam of fire shot into the sky, blazing brightly against the thick darkness of the night.
Ethan: ? ? ?
Is it really that simple and crude?!
Ethan stared at the billowing smoke and muttered, "...wise yet foolish, the greatest truths are the simplest. Truly worthy of Luna."
excellent!
Ravenclaw gets a perfect score!!
Immediately afterwards, a deep and melodious horn sounded.
It completely shattered the tranquility of the night, instantly turning the camp into a noisy mess!
The guards around the ancient well said:
"Attack! Those damned fairies have launched a sneak attack!"
"But the explosion just now seemed to have come from inside the camp—."
"Nonsense, it must be the fairies' alchemical bomb! Those treacherous guys!!"
Upon hearing this, Ethan nodded in agreement.
I remembered the fairy scout I found in the dense forest on the way here.
Hmm, it feels like we stumbled upon something by accident, but it actually served as a wake-up call for them?
Beside the ancient well.
"Slap! Slap!"
Several explosions rang out, and the guards teleported to join the battle.
Alright! My turn!
Ethan's eyes lit up, and after confirming that they had left, he quickly walked towards the intersection.
"The Art of Feather Fall".
Light feathers fluttered up from around my feet.
Ethan leaped directly into the deep abyss and landed lightly.
I didn't notice.
A tall, strong figure went and then returned.
He stared fiercely at the ancient well.
"despair."
The soles of my shoes were in the puddles.
Ethan stood at the bottom of the well, looking around in surprise.
What comes into view is an incredibly vast space.
The air was damp and humid, which accumulated in the depressions underground. The tunnels were interconnected, like a spider web, with many twists and turns.
It looks like those wizards dug for a long time.
They know the ancient magical relics are here, but they can't find them no matter what they do.
But I have a cheat code!
Ethan unfolds the treasure map left by the owner of the artifact.
Instantly, a dark blue magical power emanated from it.
Form a guiding line to lead Ethan forward!
Show me the way!
Ethan quickly followed the beam of light.
We traversed the slippery ground and passed through countless intersections.
Finally, we arrived at a wall.
The magic beam stretched all the way behind the wall.
—·A smokescreen?
Ethan reached out his hand, but bumped into a solid wall.
It's not that it can't be blown up, but Ethan instinctively felt that's not how it should be done.
Ethan pressed himself against the wall, touching it inch by inch.
Sure enough, an inconspicuous little hole was found in the center!
"I see."
Ethan had a sudden inspiration.
Take out the key to vault number 12 and insert it into the lock.
Perfectly fitted!
"Click."
Turn the key, and an arched door with intricate patterns will appear on the wall!
It slowly opened before Ethan's eyes!
"This is actually a series of quests!" Ethan exclaimed. "No wonder ancient magic was lost; it turns out all the key components are indispensable."
"I wonder what good things that mysterious Mr. Blake left me this time."
Ethan, like a fly, rubbed his hands together and eagerly stepped inside.
Inside was a narrow room.
There was only one table, placed quietly in the center.
Above, there was a thick, heavy book.
The surface, like skin scorched by flames, is pitted and uneven.
It makes people feel uncomfortable.
Ethan loved it.
I increasingly feel that I have a lot in common with the owner of this ancient magical relic.
But Ethan didn't pick it up rashly; instead, he first observed his surroundings.
Then, you can see two dragon head statues hidden in the shadows on the walls on both sides.
Hmm...it looks like some kind of mechanism.
Just as Ethan was about to find out what was going on...
Suddenly, his pupils contracted!
With a rapid wave of his wand, a spell was uttered from his mouth:
"Armor for protection!"
"Bang!"
A red curse struck the magical barrier that had just risen!
Ethan confirmed that he was still wearing the mask and looked like an adult.
He then turned his head and looked at the attacker.
He is Jack, the captain of the camp's guard.
Jack, wand in hand, stared at the scene before him with a mixture of wariness and shock, his pupils dilating in disbelief!
The ancient magical relic they had been searching for had actually been found by this mysterious masked man!
I initially thought it was one of today's scavengers, but how could that little brat, who was only thirteen or fourteen years old, possibly have accomplished all of this!
It must be another expert!!
Jack roared menacingly, "You dare come to my turf and cause trouble!"
"Get out of here now, and I might spare your life!"
The hidden door has been opened, very good.
Leave your belongings behind, and you can leave.
After all, ancient magic is an incredibly powerful force that must not be allowed to be taken away by evil people!
A burning desire ignited in Jack's eyes.
Now? Let me go?
You must be joking!
Ethan almost instinctively scattered sunflowers to show the burly man what light was.
But Ethan held back.
He's a good person, how could he attack a wizard who is also human?
Even if the other party is unreasonable, a kind and peace-loving person like myself can only endure it.
Ethan glanced at the dragon-head mechanism on the wall.
Raise your hands and silently step back.
This move further boosted Jack's confidence.
This convinced him that the other party was no match for him.
Otherwise, why not just launch an attack directly?
"Hmph," Jack grinned, threateningly, "Don't make any moves, I'll know. Stay put, or you'll cause trouble!"
Ethan didn't speak, he just stood there quietly.
Like a cold and emotionless statue.
A chill ran down Jack's spine for no apparent reason.
But the desire for ancient magical relics easily overshadowed this strange feeling.
He shoved Ethan aside and strode into the room.
Staring at the heavy books on the table, an irrepressible longing rose within me!
This book belongs to him!!
Jack practically snatched the book from his hand!
next second.
"Click".
A soft sound rang out.
There was a push-button switch located under the book and on the table!
Ethan whistled from outside.
Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that the dragon-head mechanism on the wall had begun to light up with a reddish-orange light.
Jack clutched the book tightly, frowning in confusion, and asked, "Huh? What the hell?"
He looked at the increasingly bright walls and suddenly had a bad feeling.
Just as I was about to back away, "Bang!!!"
Two blazing fireballs shot out from the dragon heads facing each other!
The explosion hit Jack, causing him to suddenly let out a pig-like scream!
"Aaaaaah!!"
Flames erupted.
After the first shot, there was a second and a third!
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Like two cannons, they continuously spewed out fireballs!
The entire secret room was filled with fireworks!
At first, there was Jack's pitiful scream.
Later, there was no sound at all.
The firelight shone through the mask and reflected in Ethan's eyes, making him sigh with emotion:
"So beautiful."
Both above and below ground exploded simultaneously.
There are treasures to collect and fireworks to watch.
The owner of the belongings was truly thoughtful. (A moment later)
The two dragon heads went out, ceasing their deadly barrage.
It's like they've fired enough, and then they enter a period of reflection.
Ethan waved his wand, clearing the smoke from the room.
Stepping inside, I searched around and finally spotted a black mountain of flesh on the ground that blended almost seamlessly into its surroundings.
It was still undulating slightly, showing remarkable vitality.
Ethan: "So you were here. You disguised yourself so well. No wonder you're the captain of the guard."
Jack: "...—
Damn, I'm like this from being blown up!!
He was so enraged that he trembled violently.
He desperately tried to open his eyes from his charred skin.
Seeing the mysterious and eerie masked man, I picked up the ancient magic book that had fallen to the ground.
The cover is perfectly intact after scanning, its posture elegant and relaxed.
It made him seem like a joke.
—.—. I've been tricked.
Using someone else to do the dirty work—everything is under the control of this damned masked man!
From beginning to end, he was like a clown!
Jack's eyes were bloodshot as he roared hoarsely:
"Who...who are you?! The camp will never let you get away with this!!"
Ethan: Why does this sentence sound so familiar?
It seems the fairy also said she wouldn't let herself go?
Sigh~ I'm clearly a champion of justice for everyone.
Ethan looked down at the pile of jack on the ground and slowly spoke:
"Since you've asked so sincerely, I'll mercifully tell you."
Jack: "..—
Jack trembled even more violently.
Ethan: "I am the Lamp, the Lamp Master who holds light and hope."
Jack: ? ! !
He was suddenly stunned.
In his mind, he quickly recalled the terrifying scene in the forest, a scene that resembled an apocalyptic ice age.
then.
Ethan suddenly leaned down and, to Jack's horrified gaze, removed his mask.
Seeing Jack's suddenly wide eyes, her cobalt blue eyes curved into a smile as she said playfully:
"That's right, the scavenger 'Wright'~"
Jack: ? ! !
He stared blankly at that mature, yet unforgettable, handsome face.
My mind went blank!
How could this be?! How could it be that pretty boy brat?!
At what point did I fall into their trap?!
