After a few days, Ian arrived at the Shaia peak. As the distance got closer, his eyes started rolling.

If it had been the way it was, we'd never be able to fly again. ’

Extreme Cold gusts that started at the peak and thundered violently.

And the white snow that covered the whole mountain, and all the ice.

It was as if the same mountain that I had really seen had vanished without a hitch.

What is it? Did you come to the wrong place? ’

Of course, there were piles of white snow that had not melted yet in the shades of the mountain, and the branches that had been crumbling with bones had not yet smoked the right leaves, but it looked so different from the appearance of the Shaia peak that Ian knew.

“Unacceptable, are you sure you've come to the right place? ”

At Ian's question, the inconvenience rebounded with a blunt expression.

“Yes, master. Have you forgotten where I've lived for centuries? ”

“No, but... It's just so different from what I saw the other day, it's weird. ”

“How is it different from what the owner saw? ”

“Clearly, there was a cold storm that was hard to reach at the peak, and there were drums of white snow and snow piled up all the way to the waist. ”

Ian was embarrassed and mumbled as if he was making excuses.

It was Arene, not Irene, who stood up to Ian's story.

“That's right, Ian. Just last week, it was as Ian said, close to a barren wasteland. ”

“Him, right? ”

“Just a few days ago, the peak suddenly started to revitalize, and the snow started to melt and life started to bloom. ”

“Th-they said? ”

“There must have been some kind of motive, and I don't know exactly what it is. ”

“Hmm……. ”

Ian looks down at Shaia peak from the spine of the ill-fated, rubbing his chin.

As always, it was not unlikely that such a change would occur in Kailan's worldview for no reason, so I made a thorough guess as to why.

‘Could this have something to do with me clearing Lava Land? ’

However, it was impossible to come up with concrete grounds right away, and Ian's interest in the quest was soon to move on.

“Arlene. Is this the valley of life around here? ”

When Ian asked, Aren nodded and replied.

“Yes, that's right, Ian. If you turn just a little west, you'll find a way into the valley in no time. ”

The inconvenience of hearing Arene's words begins to swing slowly with a large spread of wings.

Beyond the rugged ridge, the deep, blue valley reveals itself to the group like a lie.

And the landscape was completely new to Ian, who had the power to scour the Shaia peak.

“Wow, there was a zone like this.... ”

A blue waterfall falling vertically and a stream of deep, still valleys below.

Ian was surprised that he hadn't discovered this enormous terrain, but in fact it was too natural.

When Ian came to Shaia peak, the valley of life itself was frozen solid.

Since the valley was completely frozen with white snow, it was natural that Ian could not find the peaks thoroughly.

Flash-!

A massive fluttering flutter of wings settles down on the valley's entrance.

Ian and Aren, who were riding on the back of the ill-fated, also fell to the ground with a gentle gesture.

“Here, Ian. ”

“Hmm.”

“You've already seen it up there, but it's huge, right? ”

“You mean this valley? ”

“Yep.”

“Obviously, but.... ”

Approaching the front of the valley, Ian looks up at the valley that runs magnificently along the mountain range.

Then I slowly walked toward it.

‘It sure looks like there's something in the valley.... Why can't you come in here without Charta? ’

According to Arene, there is some kind of seal that surrounds the valley, but Ian saw nothing of it.

In Ian's case, there must be a question.

But the next moment…….

Woof.

Fang-!

All of a sudden, translucent blue walls in front of Ian bounced him off…….

“Oh!”

Ian was startled and had to step back with his eyes wide open.

Was it like that? ’

And that wasn't the end of it.

In Ian's eyes, there were new system messages.

- We hit the "Seal of the Holy Spirit."

Movement Speed is slowed by 20% for -10 sec.

- So far, we've hit a wall.

-If it hits the seal more than three times, it is forced summoned to the entrance of the valley.

- The number of collisions will reset in 3 minutes.

“Oh.”

Ian's expression of seeing the message had all the emotions of surprise erased, but it was filled with exciting emotions.

"I never thought there would be this much fun content. ’

But when he couldn't see Ian's face in the back, he scratched his back head and opened his mouth to see if he thought he was embarrassed.

“Because of the seal of the Holy Spirit, I couldn't reach the valley. ”

“Definitely not easy in the usual way. ”

“I've tried it a dozen times by myself, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get in more than 10 meters. ”

Ian listens to Arlene, flashing his eyes and asking again.

“Did you enter while predicting and avoiding the coordinates for the blockage? ”

Aren shakes his head and opens his mouth again.

“No, they responded faster than predictions. ”

“Response?”

“The blue light flashes just before the seal is created. If you look at it, you have to take a quick step back. ”

“Oh, there was that. ”

After gaining new information, Ian once again takes a step toward the entrance to the valley.

And when the blue light flashed in front of my eyes....

Blame-!

Immediately, the body was rotated to turn away from the seal.

Bloop.

Ian then barely crosses the side of the boundary, curling his mouth's tail.

"Hehe, this is what it was? ’

I was embarrassed when I hit the conclusion for the first time, but even the size of the blue wall that appeared this time was somewhat successful.

‘It's roughly one metre wide. ’

And Ian, who was excited, continued to walk even deeper.

I wanted to test how far I could get without Charta.

Blame it! Blame it!

Ian moves around responding to blue lights like he's playing an arcade game.

“Ooh, wow! ”

Arene, who identified Ian's knife-like reflexes, opened her mouth and was amazed.

In fact, even if he showed me the mechanism of closure, I didn't know Ian could avoid it at all.

‘I thought I'd have to avoid it once...' ’

Arlene stares blankly at Ian as he breaks through the perimeter like a circus.

But Ian bounced out of the cage before he made it through the whole thing, and Aren jumped at him in a panic.

“Amazing! Ian, aren't you an animist? ”

“Well, yeah. ”

“How can an animist be so physically competent? ”

“This is as much as anyone can do without me. ”

“Oh, no way. ”

Arlene's excitement continues to rattle around, but Ian answers appropriately and then approaches the entrance to the seal again.

I had just bounced out of the gate in a row with the last hurricane, but I thought I could try a few more times and make it to the valley.

Without Charta, of course.

"Hmm, didn't Charta used to be a necessity? ’

But after a while, Ian realized right away that it wasn't.

As I went deeper and deeper, the difficulty became more difficult.

- We hit the "Seal of the Holy Spirit."

Movement Speed is slowed by 20% for -10 sec.

- We hit the "Seal of the Holy Spirit."

…… approximate……

- We've had three conflicts.

- Forced summoned to the Valley Passage.

Moreover, there was once a physically inevitable boundary pattern created in the middle of the boundary, so it was practically impossible to pass through here without Charta.

“Gas. It's not easy. ”

After three attempts, Ian finally returned to the starting point and sighed for a short time, Aren approached and asked carefully.

“Hey... Ian? ”

“Huh?"

“But why don't you use Charta? ”

The elders of the Goral told Aren that if he could use the power of the space ruler, Charta, he would be able to get through the barrier with ease.

As an Arene, Ian's behavior of continuing to head without Charta was a little unclear.

But of course, there was a reason Ian hadn't ridden Charta yet.

After familiarizing himself with the structure and patterns of the seal as much as possible, he and Aren were going to ride on Charta's back and try to break through the seal at once.

“If not, I was going to call Charta now. ”

“Oh!”

Whoo-hoo!

At the end of Ian's words, a sleek tiger with a blue mane was summoned in front of them.

- Cough!

Ian then, without hesitation, reaches out to Arene on Charta's back.

“Come on, get behind me, Arlene. I'll take you inside the valley. ”

Soon after Ian's words brightened his face, Aren immediately climbed onto Charta's back.

Blame-!

Although not as fast as Ian, Arene was also able to climb on the back of a huge chartar in one fell swoop.

“Then, shall we go? ”

“Yep!"

When Arene's answer dropped, Charta, who was riding the two of them, immediately ran out.

Then their stature disappears, being sucked into the valley's entrance.

“Hmm……. This is the artifact the Goral were talking about, right? ”

Deep in the Spirit Mountain, the murky ruins of the underworld.

Lilson picks it up carefully and shines a torch, looking for a small bead with a bright spark in it.

- Unknown orb (???)

Right now, she was running a series of quests to find the Ruins of the Holy Spirit.

We needed the help of 'Charta' to get through the barrier around the Valley of Life, because we needed to find Charta and figure out how to ask her for help.

So the first place she came was the Ruins of the Ruined Papma.

Papma's ruins had a lot of special artifacts hidden away, and I got some information on the 'Orphan Beads’ that Lilson needed.

If I had the Orb of Life, I would be able to communicate with the Spirit Master, and then I would be able to ask for help from 'Charta’.

Of course, there was a good chance that you would have to complete his quest again in order to get ‘Charta’ 's help, but solving these quests step by step is fun.

‘Now, this time, the Orb of Life should be right! ’

Lilson, who found the bright orb, triggered a professional skill, 'Advanced Emotions'.

After a while.

Fath-!

In the darkness, the sparkling light started wrapping around the ‘unknown bead’.

- You have succeeded in feeling the 'Unknown Bead’!

- You won the 'Magic Orb (Legendary) (Superior)’ item!

“Enough!”

Lilson cheers as he finds the ruins he wanted.

Now all that's left is to find the spirit of a rare species named Charta.

‘All right, let's go find the fountain of life. ’

But at this point, she didn't know.

One day only to find the fountain of life.

Moreover, a guy named Charta said he wouldn't be able to find him for a while.
