Meanwhile, the remaining party members were searching the surroundings while waiting for the Hero to return.

Ah, theres nothing here.

Kasim muttered despondently.

Just now, both Noubelmag and Pia had experienced rejection from the portal once each.

Due to the violent shaking of the ground, they gave up entering the portal and focused on searching.

This side is just a pile of dust, too.

They really swept through here.

Of course, even if they searched the laboratory thoroughly, they couldnt find any useful clues.

Covered in dust, they naturally started idling with the portal in front of them, puffing on their pipes.

Pia initiated the conversation with a light question.

But why exactly can only Professor go in there?

Kasim answered without much thought.

Because hes an extraordinary person, isnt he?

Uh, do you think thats a sufficient answer Professor Pierre.

Well, anyway, what difference does it make who among us can go in, haha.

Noubelmag, with deepening wrinkles, interjected while puffing on his pipe.

Hmm, it doesnt seem like such a simple matter to think aboutNew novel chapters are published on

The old man, gazing at the shimmering portal, then shifted his gaze back to the inscription above it.

Before the anointed one

It was hard to understand.

Why was the leader called the anointed one, meaning the one who atones for others sins?

Of course, it was true that he bore an immense responsibility that ordinary humans couldnt handle.

But cant we see all of this as a process of someone paying off someone elses sins?

There isnt a person who doesnt know that Ted Redymer, far from atoning, strives for the salvation of humanity out of voluntary will.

Sigh-

Noubelmag tried to continue his thoughts, but soon sucked deeply on his pipe and lowered his head.

Am I being too sensitive? Seems like Im overthinking.

He shook his head, dispersing the hazy smoke in front of him.

The leaders inexplicable actions How many times had he been in ambiguous situations like this?

Each time, it was perplexing, but ultimately, those actions were all for the greater good.

Hell probably explain everything about it later.

Noubelmag temporarily put aside those recurring questions.

Woo woo woong-

The portal began shimmering again, at that moment.

Pia and Kasim jumped up.

Hero.

Professor!

The Hero appeared before them, looking noticeably more tired than before.

His expression seemed deeply lost in thought.

We shall return now.

Before they could ask anything, the Hero murmured quietly.

Noubelmag inquired.

What do you mean by return?

The Hero replied.

To Rosenstark.

What?

Pia and Kasim exclaimed.

Why?

Well, I dont know when we can come to the Great Forest again.

Pia and Kasim pleaded with as pitiful expressions as possible.

Even the staff members urgently needed a vacation.

Going back to Rosenstark after working tirelessly all along, thats unacceptable.

Moreover, Kasim had only achieved one of his two goals for coming to The Great Forest.

He had improved his skills but

Faerie maidens!

All this time, he had been engrossed in training, looking like a beggar, unable to speak a word to them.

If they were to return without any memories like this, it would be a lifelong regret.

Not much different from kids.

The Hero sighed deeply, lowering his head.

We shall depart in two days.

Watching them like that, Noubelmag smiled faintly.

He felt reassured.

Yes, if hes the leader, hell explain everything someday. Were comrades.

Why are you guys here together!

As they got off the carriage with Leciel, Ban scratched his head with a pure expression.

Huh? We were just together at our house, so.

What?

As Ban continued his spirited explanation, Leciel watched with a face twisted in surprise.

Karen observed the relationship between Ban and Leciel closely.

Hmm, whats going on? Did they get closer during the vacation?

It seemed like something had changed between them during the semester, but it was hard to pinpoint exactly.

She planned to subtly probe about what had happened during the vacation later.

Scandals were Karens favorite topic.

However, amid the cheerful commotion, there was one girl who quietly looked around.

What should I do?

They were about to depart soon.

She couldnt help but approach Yussi, a difficult situation for an ordinary student.

Evergreens courage was considerable.

Um Principal. Excuse me, but is Luke Selsood absent from the trip?

Yussi recalled a communication from a few days ago.

It hasnt been decided yet that I can go, so if someone asks me if Im coming, can you tell them I cant go?

Got it.

Yussi nodded up and down.

Hes absent.

Ah.

Evergreen hung her head dejectedly.

Are you really busy with requests?

Maybe he was hurt.

Or perhaps he didnt like these kinds of leisure trips.

Still, when they communicated from Solintail, he had agreed to meet at the destination.

It was a moment when thoughts like these swirled around in her mind.

Deindart approached with a swoosh-.

Evergreen, Im here. How have you been?

Oh, Senior.

By the way, did you hear that the resort has a swimming pool? Do you know how to swim? Did you bring a swimsuit?

Uh, not really. Im not good at it. I grew up in the mountains.

Thats great. Big brothers nickname is a seal. Haha!

Meanwhile, a step behind, Nyhill quietly watched all the commotion.

Unlike the other kids who were dressed up for the trip, she wore her usual dull-colored clothes.

The only difference was that she had woven the leaves of the World Tree into a tiara and wore it on her wrist.

She had thought about putting it on her head, but it was too conspicuous, so she gave up.

Even though she was skilled at hiding her presence like a ghost, wearing a bright blue leaf crown would make her invisibility useless.

Nyhill was continuing the thoughts that she couldnt shake off recently.

Why does the Hero keep excluding me from dangerous missions?

Whether in Harlem or during this expedition in the Great Forest, even though I infiltrated as a student, I am still an agent dispatched by the Shadows to assist the Heros activities.

Being continuously marginalized like this is a problem.

Maybe my abilities are not sufficient. If I am not helpful, if I cannot prove my usefulness, there is no reason for me to be here. At some point, another agent who can replace me could come to the academy as always.

As Nyhill imagined another agent replacing her, she felt a discomfort in her chest.

It was at that moment.

Hey, girl! Why do you look so down when the trip is right around the corner?

Cuculli.

Nyhill instinctively stepped back.

Cucullis narrow eyes were observing her intently.

Since the festival, Cuculli had become quite curious about her.

Hehe, you feel the same, huh?

About what?

Just when we were starting to become close, the vacation came! Lets strengthen our friendship on this trip.

Yussi gathered everyone then.

Alright, now that everyones here, lets depart!

Fluttering-

From bow to stern, it was an all-white cruise ship.

Under the sunlight, the sparkling hull slid smoothly towards the dock and came to a stop on one side.

With its white and clean sails, wide deck, and neatly painted hull, against the backdrop of fluttering cloth in the wind, the contours of the beautiful artificial island were faintly visible.

It was a very smooth departure.
