Chapter 100

Hamun was the first to react to Seol's words.

"Could I take a look?"

"Sure."

As the weapon proved to be slightly heavy, Karen carefully set it down on a suitable table for Hamun.

First, Hamun was in awe of Fire Serpent's unique shape, and afterward, he was in awe of its material.

"This is undoubtedly fire spirit stone. The energy... the energy is concentrated in a remarkably unique manner. It seems I'll need to dedicate some time to studying this, as well."

"Then..."

Hamun continued while touching Fire Serpent.

"I will make Karen's weapon."

"How long will it take?"

"If all of my tools are still in their right places... roughly fifteen days."

"Fifteen days... Understood."

Since Seol had roughly twenty days until his next Adventure, it was plenty of time.

After finishing their business, Karen yawned while exiting Hamun's smithy.

"Haah... It's mostly solved now, right? What do we do next?"

"Next is to figure out where we'll head next."

In truth, Seol came to Nobira solely because of this problem.

His problem being that he didn't know what to do for his next Adventure.

'Is Chao... still here?'

Chao granted Seol three months to procure a particular sleeping medicine for her. Accepting her request, Seol ventured out and accomplished his mission.

However, on his way back to Nobira, he discovered that it was attacked and completely destroyed. As such, all of his plans went awry.

It was possible that Chao had also been swept up in that incident and had to change her plans.

'Chao was Gregory's disciple too... Is my connection to him going to disappear like this?'

Gregory was one of the three most influential Shadow Summoners of this age. He was notorious for his cruelty and ill-temperament, but he was more known for his exceptional skills. Consequently, few dared to defy him.

Furthermore, most of his disciples were known to be skilled individuals themselves.

'It's my first time hearing about Chao, though...'

Even for Seol, understanding Gregory's disciples' exact number and individual strength was impossible unless he lived with them.

Even so, Seol had never heard about Chao. And as such, he grew curious.

'Her powers were the real deal though... And what's important right now isn't whether Chao was Gregory's disciple or not.'

The only important thing was whether Seol could find her.

"Is that why we're here again?"

"It's a familiar place, Master."

"Huh? It's not as destroyed as I thought it would be."

Seol's party arrived at the manor, a familiar place they had visited numerous times in search of Chao.

'Did this building survive the attack because it was on the outskirts?'
