Man in the Ark: Revitalizing Kazdel

Winter of 1092, in the "One More Drink" tavern on the middle commercial street of Rhode Island.

This is a place that many operators and staff members frequent. They come here to have a few drinks with friends in their free time to relieve the stress accumulated from work.

The pub owner had an old record player with terrible sound quality and only played a few discs.

However, some operators who like to sing and join in the fun will hold performances here, singing their own songs or ditties from their hometowns.

Miss Mary from the Mudrock Team was one of them. She was a little tipsy now, and was looking at the handsome man in the center of the tavern with blurry eyes.

A melodious song came out of the man's mouth, like a warm spring breeze blowing through a grassy field, gently brushing against his face, even though it was winter.

As a Leitanian, Miss Mary has been exposed to classical music since childhood. Every time the music sounds in her ears, she feels like she is in a concert hall.

But now, she felt like she was back to nature, with feathered beasts calling on branches, the sound of toothed beasts stepping on leaves, the sound of the stream flowing, and the rustling of leaves in the breeze...

Everything is so clear, everything is so real...

The noisy conversations of the patrons in the tavern completely disappeared, leaving only the man's singing.

Everyone was immersed in the wonderful feeling brought to them by the singing, and no one noticed that a tall figure in black gauze walked into the tavern with elegant steps.

"Oh~~~Aifanil sings so beautifully, do you need mother to accompany you?"

"Mother, why are you here?" Logos stopped singing. The guests, who had lost their singing voice, woke up as if from a dream, with a little confusion on their faces.

"I heard your singing, so I followed the sound and came here. Well, go on, I'll accompany you." After saying this, the Banshee Lord took out her bone whistle, opened her red lips slightly, and pressed them to the mouth of the whistle.

"Aifanil, please regard this song as a farewell gift we prepared for the warriors who are about to go to war."

Logos glanced at his mother and nodded. Accompanied by her accompaniment, the melodious singing sounded again.

......

"W, why are you reading suddenly?" Hedley pushed open the door of W's dormitory. As soon as he entered, he saw W lying on the bed, flipping through a heavy book out of boredom.

"There has been no suitable mission for me recently, and I don't know what to do, so I can only take a look at this book that His Highness gave me."

"Haha, I never thought that there would be a day when you would read a book by yourself." Hedley skillfully moved a stool out from under the table and sat down, still teasing W.

"Hedley, are you free? Didn't you go to the city with Inès to find a suitable shop? How do you have time to bother me?" W immediately retorted to Hedley like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

"Um... this is not going smoothly. We are still discussing it." Hedley replied calmly. In fact, the price has not been agreed upon.

"Heh, it seems you're not doing that well. Tell me, how can I help you?" Although W was harsh in his words, he was still concerned about the situation of Hedley and Inès.

"It's okay. At most I'll just work hard for a while and it will be solved soon." Hedley waved his hand and said indifferently.

"Tsk, you're just trying to be brave..."

After their usual bickering time, W and Hedley talked about their recent situation.

Hedley is now a teacher in a school, realizing his dream when he was a mercenary. Inès works as an assistant in a shop, she said she wants to gain experience first and then open her own shop when the time is right.

Knowing that the two of them lived such a fulfilling life, W felt happy for them, but also a little inexplicably lost.

She didn't know what she could do. Now every day was just boring training and studying. When she was a mercenary, she longed for such a life every day, but now she felt a little bored.

Hedley keenly noticed W's disappointment, and just as he was about to enlighten her, a rapid electronic sound suddenly sounded. Turning his head, he saw that it was the notification sound from the mobile terminal on the desktop.

W quickly picked up the mobile terminal and pressed a button. A gentle and familiar voice came out of it, and W immediately recognized it as the voice of His Highness.

"Operators who receive this message please go to the operations meeting room immediately and do not disclose the content of the notification to other operators."

W jumped up from the bed quickly, put on his equipment as quickly as possible, picked up the terminal and left in a hurry, leaving only a sentence: "Hedley, I have something urgent to do, you go back first..."

Those who can receive this notification in the Tower of Babel are powerful operators with rich combat experience and elites from various departments.

Logos, Mantra, Scout, Ascalon...even Warfarin received the notification.

They put down their work and walked in the same direction.

At this time, Roy was teaching Mud Rock how to use spells in the operator training room. After this period of study, Mud Rock was already able to use his own spells proficiently.

In order to help Mudstone better master her spells, Roy asked the engineering department to make a staff for her, which is the silver glove she wears on her hand.

With the help of gloves to guide spells, Mud Rock can not only shape spell creations that are so detailed that they can be called works of art, but also control them to make complex movements. It seems that the Stone Man Concert that Miss Mary has been looking forward to will be realized in the near future.

On the other side of the training room, Shining was using equipment to help the Doctor relax her tense and sore muscles. The Doctor didn't care about his image at all and made some comfortable sounds that could be misunderstood.

At this moment, the mobile terminals that several people put together rang almost at the same time. Roy stood up first and handed the terminals to each of them.

Mudstone looked down at his unresponsive terminal, wondering why his was the only one that didn't ring...

The Doctor was just as confused as she was. When she learned that Theresa wanted the operators to gather in the combat meeting room, her face was filled with question marks.

"Is this a war meeting?"

Roy did not answer the doctor's question. He took Shining's hand and left. Anyway, Theresa would explain the situation there.

Upon seeing this, the Doctor hurriedly followed, leaving Mudstone the only one left in the training room, staring blankly at the magical creation in front of him.

She had just seen Roy holding the hand of Miss Shining, and she felt a thrill she had never felt before in her heart.

Mudstone seemed to have thought of something, took off one of his gloves, and then used his other hand to cast a spell on the creature in front of him.

The creature was transformed rapidly by the will of the mudstone, and became the image of Roy. She took off her gloves and gently held Roy's hand, slowly tightening it.

"Why don't I have that strange feeling just now? Do I have to hold hands with a real teacher to have it? Let's find a chance to try next time."
