"Yes, Mr. Pena! It's true and the officials requested for you to see this image."
Unlike Jonas Nolan who didn't tell much about the advancent ceremony because he wanted to gather the resources he needed on his own, Pena chose to let the country knew so things.
Because he couldn't get these things so easily.
Thanks to that, the official knew that there would be a markings ford in the sky during an advancent ceremony and the identity of the person who advanced could be seen through it.
Of course, Pena only let them knew a part of it.
Part that he couldn't gather on his own and required their help.
"Let see," Pena said leisurely.
A tablet was put in front of Pena. His dropping eyes moved towards the screen before his movent paused.
"It's a rune master," Pena said slowly.
And this rune master… is that rune master.
Pena's eyes flickered when he saw that familiar engraving marks. Everyone had their own unique marks, which represent their paths and profession. The profession one would be similar one after another but because their specific paths would be different, most advancent ceremony would create a different kind of pattern in the sky.
The greatest shape was naturally their profession and then there would be a lot of fillings in accordance to their specific path.
And the path that he saw this ti…
'A very pure rune master… as far as I know, there's only one pure rune master in that world around our age.'
Pena had heard of this special rune master.
A rune master with low talent but chose to take the path of magician regardless. When he passed by that place, he heard so rumors about how soone changed their magic spells to runes.
It was a bit outrageous in his opinion.
Because no matter how fast they draw runes, how could it be faster than the magic spells that could be cast instantly after reaching a certain ranks?
So he only felt that this person is foolish.
Until two years afterwards when he saw the screen with his master that he found out… he was the foolish one.
His master told him calmly, "There's no rubbish path, only rubbish people. If you're determined enough to create a specific path that belong only for you alone, you can still make your na resound all across the land."
Just like that special rune master.
Because he was about to advance to rank 7 himself and embarked on his own journey out, Pena rembered this incident very clearly.
That beautiful mark…
It was really eye catching with gold and silver intertwined.
But more importantly was the fact that if they paid closer attention, they would be able to see various colors hidden within these runes. From outside, they could only see the brilliant color of silver and gold.
The magic tools that the people in that world used allowed them to see the inside clearly.
He could never forget the dense runes that seed to be filling the entire sky, yet none of them clashed against the other. It was so much that he didn't know how the person herself would be able to finish making the formation.
After all, Pena is not a rune master.
Those combination runes were simply too complicated for him to learn. It was enough that he learned the art of necromancy from his master.
"So it's the rune master. I'll make the report, Mr. Pena," the soldier said and quickly left.
Pena didn't care too much about these officials people being so impatient.
After all, he knew that there were competition between continents and countries that still existed until now.
But for him…
"If it's really that special rune master, it's really not a surprise for her to advance to rank 7 so quickly," Pena muttered in a low voice.
His gloomy aura turned even gloomier.
Even though it was indeed not that unusual, but he didn't want to lose. He had already collected a large number of skeletons and as long as he could collect a bit more and build his castle… he could start his own advancent ceremony.
At that ti, no one would be able to stop him anymore.
…
Long distance away, Continent Y, one of the city base.
As the greatest opponent of Continent Z, Continent Y has always been paying close attention to the situation in Continent Z. They have already lost in terms of the returnees' numbers, to they hoped that these returnees they have would have higher ability.
Both Navi and Nalan could be said to be under heavy pressure from the officials.
Because after Ami, the soul magician, death, there were only two returnees left. The officials knew that the number of the returnees were limited but they never get the clear number before this.
Now, they had the feeling that almost all returnees have appeared.
And if this was the case, it ant that they have lost a lot with Ami's death.
In the eyes of these officials, how could these people in the base be compared to the returnee?
The knowledge and ability of these returnees would bring their country to a greater height!
They couldn't afford to lose even one of them.
Unfortunately, there was no ti for them to regret.
After all, they couldn't change the past.
"Nalan, the officials are making a fuss again." Navi's face twisted a bit when she saw the ssage they sent.
"Is there any problem?"
"A returnee has advanced to rank 7 and they sohow managed to find this out so quickly," Navi replied and her face contorted.
Who is it?
Who could advance to rank 7 so quickly?
"I see." On the other hand, Nalan was relatively indifferent.
"Nalan!"
"They're on the other side of the world. Do you really think that you can stop them?" Nalan asked back. "Besides, only the first part of mana compression could have the possibility of intervention from others. Once they enter the second stage, they would be in the state isolated from the world…. You can't do anything to them at that ti."
