Elasia now followed Habel’s every order without question.

She replied with a “Yes” in a sullen voice, and shortly after, Elasia returned with a change of clothes for Habel.

Habel changed his clothes and carefully placed the torn ones in his subspace ring.

The clothes Elasia brought fit him perfectly.

They gave off the impression of being a mix between an adventurer and a noble.

They took into consideration formality and functionality.

“They look good on you.”

“Do they?”

“Yes, they make you look like a noble.”

Well, he is a noble.

He didn’t scold her, however, as he realized that it was Elasia’s way of complimenting him.

“Sir Habel.”

Elasia called out to him softly as he was adjusting his collar.

“How much longer will I be traveling with you?”

Originally, the condition was that she would be released once they found the ones who had stolen the key.

Yet, they had continued to travel together after that.

It was something that made her curious.

“Why? Do you want to run away?”

“No, not at all! Why would I do that!”

Elasia forced a smile.

From noble mtl dot com

For a while, I used her too much.

“I’ll take you to the Cloudy Mist Island. That’s where it ends. That would be better for you too, right?”

“Oh, me, really?”

Habell nodded once more to confirm.

Then she was genuinely delighted.

She no longer had to do unpaid labor.

‘She’s been complaining about cocoa. I should have bought her one.’

I felt a little sorry for her, as she had been quite helpful.

“I’m going up right now. Are you coming?”

So he even showed her the kindness of asking her opinion.

“Are you asking me my opinion?”

“Go if you have nothing to do.”

“Work, I don’t have any work. But it feels like the result of hard work, so I’m proud. Hehe.”

Her haughty gaze was gone now.

She smiled a youthful smile.

Habell thought she was a little broken.

There is a psychological phenomenon where the victim defends the perpetrator.

I wondered if she had been caught in such a psychological phenomenon.

Anyway, Habell entered the tower once again with such Erasia.

Möbius said he would come to the Cloudy Mist Island.

If I go first, I’m sure he’ll know instinctively.

So as Habell re-entered the 6th Order, the azure sea greeted him.

As he happened to be looking at the setting sun, Erasia came up behind Habell.

She was now used to being carried.

“Sir Habell.”

As she was being carried by Erasia, she called out to him all of a sudden.

“What is it?”

When Habell asked, Erasia hesitated.

Then she seemed to make up her mind and said,

“Do you think Selentia and Banpellion could ever have a good relationship?”

The next words made Habell realize why Erasia was acting like this.

Elysia knew that Habell spared Banpellion.

Habell is strong.

He is clearly a monster with the power to shake the world.

Rather than breaking off relations with him, she wanted to maintain a good relationship with him at this time.

‘It wasn’t a psychological phenomenon at all.’

She was simply acting in the interests of her family, like a noblewoman.

“What value can Selentia offer Banpellion?”

So Habell asked her like a nobleman.

“Ah, that, that is.”

Elashia’s lips parted slightly.

She never expected such a response.

Watching such a Celentia, Habel stepped onto the water.

“Think about it on your way, and tell your thoughts to Sir Arthur Vanpelion when you arrive in Vanpelion.”

Then Arthur, who understood what he meant, would build a relationship with Celentia.

“Ah.”

Elashia, who realized Habel’s intention, opened her eyes wide.

Then she soon smiled broadly.

“Yes!”

Vanpelion seemed likely to grow even larger in the future.

Two days after arriving on Misty Island.

Habel stayed comfortably in the room prepared by the Celentia family.

Meanwhile, Habel checked the power of destruction on an island not far from the Misty Island.

Kuaang!

The small-scale island was now gone without a trace.

It had disappeared from the map forever due to Habel’s destruction.

He had also caught the owner of the island in the meantime.

Thanks to that, his skill had finally reached four digits.

“My talent will also be transcendent in two days.”

Now, he could make all his stats transcendent, except for the demerit.

“I’ve checked the performance enough.”

Habel turned his arm and returned to Misty Island with ease.

At that moment, Habel heard a commotion.

As he headed towards the place where he heard the commotion, there were familiar guys there.

“No, we came to see Sir Habel!”

“Don’t lie. Who would believe you, you thieves!”

It was the Moebius members and the Celentia magic corps.

The growing Pyro and the Celentia magician confronted each other, swearing.

Moebius, who was behind them, looked embarrassed and soon looked this way.

Looking at him exclaiming, “Ah,” Habel scratched the back of his head.

Come to think of it, he had forgotten to tell Celentia.

Habel approached, grabbed Pyro by the nape of his neck, and lifted him up.

“Ugh, wh, who!”

The moment his clothes strangled his neck, Pyro screamed.

He stiffened his body as soon as he realized it was Habel.

Habel, who was looking at such a pyro, apologized to the magician.

“These guys are my party. Don’t worry, because they agreed to obey me.”

“Ah, is, is that so?”

The magician made an awkward expression.

Since Ellacia has been diligently following him around, he decided not to be rude to Habell.

He also knew Habell’s face well.

“Follow me. I have something in mind.”

When Habell gestured, all four of them obediently followed him.

All four of them had seen Habell’s power firsthand.

So much so that he had entered into a cooperative relationship with The Whisperer.

They couldn’t disobey Habell’s words.

As he led the four of them, Habell spoke as they walked.

“Baria.”

“Yes.”

Baria suddenly appeared from a place where there was clearly nothing.

As befitting the Graiza family, who excelled at gathering information and assassination, he was skilled at hiding.

Even the Firebrand and the Spearwielder looked at Baria with rather surprised eyes.

It seemed that Baria was superior to those two in terms of stealth alone.

However, he was nothing in front of Habell.

Every time, Havell would come to the place where Baria was and call him.

“We’re going to have a meeting, so bring those two guys.”

“Azaris is asleep after competing in magic with the Mad Sorcerer, Selentia, yesterday.”

“Bring him even if you have to beat him up.”

Without another word, Baria went to fetch Azaris.

After a while, Azaris appeared with a bump on his head.

The direct descendants of the Ignor family only knew how to fight every day.

In Habell’s eyes, the future of the Ignor family was bleak.

Thus, everyone, including Edler and the priest, gathered.

Habell, who stood before them, first introduced Mobius.

“These are the four who will be working with us for the time being. Just say hello.”

For some reason, Baria starred at the four of them with sharp eyes.

“I am Baria Graiza.”

“I am Mobius.”

After they finished exchanging simple greetings.

Habell spoke up right away.

“From now on, we’re going to divide the 6th Order strategy team.”

“What do you mean by team?”

Even now, there were quite a few people.

Baria asked Habell if it was okay to divide them up even more.

However, Habell pointed to Mobius as if to say not to worry.

“We’re going to divide it into two teams, Mobius’ team and my team.”

Baria looked back at Mobius with surprise.

For Habell to entrust him with a team meant that he was quite a capable person.

“Mobius, how many mutants do you think that an old woman on your side can make?”

Havel had previously heard from Mobius about how to clear the 6th stage.

According to Mobius, a stage could be cleared by filling the required malice in that stage.

Although it was a method that felt like cheating, it was one of the ways to climb the Tower.

So Havel was going to use it without hesitation.

“Granny.”

Mobius turned to look at Granny, and she raised her head.

She looked even more haggard than before.

She only regained consciousness a few days ago and sighed.

“You need at least a hundred. If a mutant of that level appears then it could be reduced.”

A hundred.

Considering that he originally had to go around a thousand islands, it was actually a small number.

He could collect that much in no time.

“The two teams will split up and collect fifty each. Is that possible?”

“That was what we were going to do anyway. It’s possible.”

Mobius answered confidently as if to say not to worry.

If he was that confident then he could believe it.

He wouldn’t do something reckless right now.

“The team members will be mixed.”

But it was always good to have some safety measures.

“Baria, Edler, you join that team. And Hwasan comes to this team.”

Hwasan, who had been scratching at the scar on his face, stopped.

On the other hand, Baria’s face was relaxed.

He knew well that it was more tiring to be next to Havel.

Edler just made a sign of the cross and headed over there without a word.

“Why, why me?”

At that moment, Hwasan asked with a flustered look.

Havel looked at him blankly and answered shortly.

“It’s easier for a magician to follow me.”

Havel was planning to move on a tight schedule from now on.

He had noticed it when he was carrying Elasia.

A magician was the most suitable class to follow him.

That was why Hwasan was chosen.

“Good luck.”

Spear Handle saw them off with a smile.

“Wipe that smile off your face.”

Hwasan, who was hot-tempered, moved next to Havel.

Azarias, who was next to him, looked at him with sparkling eyes for some reason.

But he didn’t have time to care about that.

“Lastly, Granny, wait for us at the Cloudy Mist Island. I’ve already told Elasia about this.”

“I guess it’s good to be old.”

We’ll kindly treat you like a fool.

“Mr. Haber.”

At that moment, Mobius called out to Haber.

Haber glanced back at him.

“There’s something I’d like to propose to you. Would that be okay?”

“Go on.”

“If we happen to be faster in obtaining this key, would you be willing to positively consider the Whisperer’s offer of cooperation?”

Mobius knew very well that Haber didn’t trust the Whisperer.

That was why he made this offer.

He wanted Haber to trust the Whisperer as much as he himself did.

Haber gazed upon Mobius with an inscrutable expression.

Who on earth was the Whisperer to this guy?

He didn’t know for sure, but there must have been a reason for him to take the Whisperer under his wing.

“Fine. Let’s do that.”

“Thank you.”

He had no intention whatsoever of giving in.

But it couldn’t hurt to encourage their enthusiasm.

And so, after finishing up the team assignments.

Haber, with Azarias and Hwasan on either side of him, exited the conference room.

He was going to yank out the iron horn in one go.

He intended to head straight to the next island.

Mobius, who had been watching the backs of the three men, all of whom seemed completely unfazed, looked over at Baria.

“You’ve had a hard time.”

Baria gave a wry smile.

“Yes, well, it feels like I’ve been having a hard time every day.”

Being by Haber’s side, his motivation was constantly being sapped.

It was no wonder that Baria had recently lost weight.

But Baria knew it too.

He knew that the path he was on now might end up changing the world.

“Still, I think it’s worth the hardship.”

The world was about to change drastically.

Perhaps he was actually in a very fortunate position.

‘Penbola must have sensed the danger for no reason.’

Looking at Haber made one naturally want to follow him.

Baria, a direct descendant of one of the Five Great Clans, felt much the same way.

After all, everyone was equal before him.

“You’ll have a hard time too, for a while.”

“I’m used to serve someone.”

Baria felt that this man must have had a very hard time as well.

In any case, they had received their orders.

“I’ll leave it in your capable hands for the time being.”

“Likewise.”

For some reason, it felt like we would understand each other well.

That was the moment when an untimely partnership was formed.
