Frilian: The Adventure of the Hero

Chapter 166 Heading to [Oisast]

Viabel's eyes widened instantly.

Golden leaves can be used as withdrawal vouchers!

Five gold coins at a time!

He doubted he had heard correctly!

For an adventurer, 5 gold coins can buy them all the food, drink, and entertainment they could want for two years.

For an average person, five gold coins can cover the daily expenses of the whole family for three to five years.

and.

He looked up at Xia En.

"They give you 5 gold coins each time. If I take them dozens of times, I can empty the entire Adventurers' Guild's cash in this city in a day."

Xia En raised an eyebrow.

"Can you?"

"I----"

Viabelu's language is blocked.

He glared at Shane, and Shane glared back at him.

Neither of them spoke.

The others nearby were puzzled when they saw the two people who had been chatting peacefully suddenly stop, stare at each other, and stand in silent confrontation.

Everyone stopped packing their luggage.

Standing beside the carriage, she looked at the two people with a somewhat helpless expression.

Philon approached Frilian and nervously tugged at her sleeve.

Viaberu has a bad temper.

He was worried that Xia En would be bullied.

Frillie was still packing her magic books; she had gone on a big shopping spree for this festival, buying a lot of powerful magic books.

The boxes are overflowing.

Seeing that Felene had pulled her aside, she glanced up at the two people not far away and casually replied, "It's nothing."

Then, I continued to struggle with the magic book.

This attitude made Philon somewhat unhappy.

"You should at least show some concern."

Frillie didn't even look up.

"Don't worry, they'll both be fine."

Contrary to her statement, the two people not far away gradually raised their voices in conversation.

"don't want."

Viaberu flatly refused.

He shoved the gold leaf back into Shane's hand.

"Even if you trust me, what if I lose this certificate? What if I die on the battlefield and some unknown person finds this leaf?"

"Then it will become a regular gold coin, just like you asked at the beginning."

"Aren't you afraid I'll reveal this agreement to someone else?"

Xia En reiterated his previous statement.

"Can you?"

Viabel looked into Shane's eyes.

They gradually lost ground.

He was unusually different from his usual cool and aloof self, scratching his hair with some anxiety and glancing to the side.

You can withdraw 5 gold coins at will.

What does such a gift signify?

Viabeiru knew all too well.

He doesn't consider himself a good person.

This trust was so heavy that he was somewhat afraid.

Seeing Viabel's expression, Shane finally straightened his face.

"Don't feel guilty. This isn't for you. It's for those fighting on the front lines in the Northern Plateau."

"As the captain of the Northern Magic Team, you know all too well the brutality of fighting on the front lines."

"But I have one request regarding how this money will be used."

Viabel looked up at Shane.

Shane continued, "It can only be used for compensation to those who have been killed in the line of duty."

"Those who shed blood for peace, their families, their children, deserve this respect."

Viaberu held the golden leaf in his hand and remained silent for a long time.

"Shane".

Do you know how many people will shed tears because of what you just said?

Xia En patted Viabel on the shoulder, walked past him, and headed towards the carriage.

There, everyone was looking at him with concern.

Xia En smiled.

"I hope that one day in the future, no one in the world will have to shed tears for this."

The carriage moved slowly along the main road.

【Kel City】slowly became a small dot on the horizon.

in the carriage.

Shaen looked at Zain with a puzzled expression.

"What are you doing—"

Zain clung to the carriage shaft, gazing in the direction Viaberu had left, his face filled with melancholy.

"I felt the pain I felt ten years ago."

Xia En was speechless.

"Oh, by the way, has your friend called 'Gorilla Warrior' heard anything lately?"

Zain looked away and shook his head.

"No one has seen him along the way; perhaps he didn't take this route at all—"

Philon comforted Zain, "Don't be discouraged. Oisaster is the largest magic city in the northern kingdoms. Almost all adventurers go there. Maybe you can find out some information there."

Zain nodded.

After that.

The carriage swayed and rattled as it entered the [Chur region].

The conversation naturally turned to the topic of the [Level 1 Mage] exam.

Both Philon and Yubel are Level 3 mages and will be taking the exam this time.

Frilian stroked her chin, thinking, "Based on your previous exam experience, the exam will include both theory and practice. There's a high chance that the two of you will become rivals, so we need to carefully consider our strategy—we need to learn more about the exam content once we get to [Oisast]."

Philon nodded obediently.

Yubel, however, had a mischievous grin on his face.

"Whether they're teammates or opponents, I won't hold back, Philon-chan."

That strange and mischievous tone of voice caught Philon's attention.

Seeing Yubel's completely nonchalant attitude, Frilian reminded him, "Don't be careless, Yubel."

"A mage's strength lies not only in magical power and spells, but also in precise control of magical power, combat experience, the compatibility of spells, and even intellect and perseverance."

Shutark scoffed, "Isn't this the all-around warrior?!"

Frillie glanced at him.

"In the absence of warriors, mages need to act as their own vanguard."

"In addition to that, there is [talent]."

Frilian looked up at the sky.

"In my life so far, I have lost to magicians whose magic power is inferior to mine 11 times. Four of them were demons, one was an elf like me, and the remaining six were humans."

"Wow~~"

Yubel tapped his chin with his finger and looked at Frilian. "Even a legendary mage like you can lose to others, and so many times at that."

This arrogant remark startled Xia En.

Girl, have you ever eaten a poisonous mushroom?

"Miss Yubel."

Philon's disapproving gaze swept over.

She was very protective of her own and couldn't stand anyone being rude to Frilian or Shane. Yubel's words had stepped on her tail.

Yubel lowered her eyelids. "I understand. Sorry."

Although they apologized verbally, their attitude showed no remorse whatsoever.

Fortunately.

Frillie didn't pay any attention.

"Since Vlamé promoted the popularization of magic among humans, the entire magical world has developed at a speed that has exceeded everyone's imagination."

"In just a thousand years, the speed at which magic has evolved has surpassed that of the previous thousands, even tens of thousands of years. Human geniuses are like stars, illuminating the entire magical world. — Next, you two may see many strange and wonderful magic spells, and many unimaginable magical techniques. Be careful."

As Frilian spoke, a vast lake appeared on the horizon ahead. A city, completely encircled by walls, sat on an island in the lake. A long stone bridge extended from the city gate, the only passage connecting the city to the mainland.

In the city center stands a striking white spire, the headquarters of the Continental Magic Association.

Shutark was awestruck by the distant metropolis.

"That's the largest magical city in the northern kingdoms, [Oisast]!"

Zain was also shocked.

This was the most magnificent city they had encountered on their journey.

but.

It looks like we're still a long way off.

"They'll probably arrive around afternoon."

Upon hearing this, Frillie yawned and casually lay down on Philon's lap.

"Then I'll take a nap first, wake me up when we get to [Oisast]."

Everyone was already used to Frilian's laziness.

I consciously stepped back a little.
