After answering Shang's questions, the Sweeper and the Ancestral Mage continued talking. The Sweeper was going through some important questions while warning the Ancestral Mage about things he would have to go through if he actually decided to join their organization. The Ancestral Mage just kept nodding and dismissing the messages, saying that all of that was fine. It seemed like he didn't have any particular aversions to doing things that required a colder mindset. As long as he was getting paid, he…-

Shang and the Sweeper only looked at the Ancestral Mage. There had been too many plot twists in the past minutes, and they had some issues with actually coming to terms with reality. The powerful Ancestral Mage that wanted to kill them had now asked them for a job. "You have a Light Affinity?" the Sweeper asked. Even though he had long white hair and looked rather heroic, he had still cloaked his fists in Darkness Mana, which meant that his main Affinity was probably Light, but he also had some mastery…

Everyone just looked at the powerful Mage Lord that had just arrived. Under normal circumstances, this would be an extremely dangerous situation for Shang and the Sweeper, but the ridiculousness of the earlier situation made it difficult to feel any kind of genuine threat. "Light Bringer," the Ancestral Mage repeated, "the Dawn Seedling has ordered me to kill these two people since they have dared to come close to the Dawn Seedling's training area." The Light Bringer blinked once without any amusement.…

Inevitably, the fight dragged on. No side could hit the other side. The Sweeper and Shang couldn't retreat. If they did, the Ancestral Mage would regain the use of his Spells, and they would actually die. They also couldn't go deeper into the Eternal Maw's territory. If they entered its Spirit Sense, it would just attack them. The only positive thing about this situation was that the Ancestral Mage was also cloaking himself with a Spell, just like Shang and the Sweeper. However, the movement of Mana…

Shang could barely process that they were actually being chased by someone belonging to one of the Mage Emperors before the person following them actually arrived just behind them. "What do you want?" the Sweeper asked via voice transmission. But then, the Ancestral Mage shot directly at her, his fists surrounded by a dense shroud of Darkness Mana. The Ancestral Mage's actions shocked the Sweeper immensely. Just this one action of shooting forward, trying to attack the Sweeper, created so many logical…

The Ancestral Mage respectfully remained at the young man's side. "Any orders?" he asked. The young man with grey hair focused a bit more on the gravitational waves in the air. "I was under the impression that Sirius Dreila forbade anyone from entering this place. I told him I need to focus on my training," the young man muttered with cold annoyance. "Either Sirius Dreila has become careless, or he has become careless," the young man said, both sides of his sentence referring to different…

Shang remained silent for a while. The Sky Lantern kept looking at Shang. It could understand why this human was so distraught. The human had arrived in front of it in hopes of having his eyes healed. Yet, to the Sky Lantern's and the human's surprise, the Sky Lantern didn't have the ability to heal his eyes. "I might not have the ability to regrow your eyes," the Sky Lantern transmitted, "but there is someone out there that can." Shang was distracted by the fact that he had come here for absolutely…

The Sky Lantern turned its head and looked at Shang. At that moment, Shang felt like the eyes of the Sky Lantern were staring into his own, even though he didn't have any. It was a weird sensation. As Shang's Spirit Sense looked at the Sky Lantern, he felt its Spirit Sense investigate him. There were many beasts around this place, but the Sky Lantern didn't focus on any of them. It only looked at him. A moment later, Shang's body began to levitate on its own. The Sweeper looked at Shang with a bit…

Eventually, Shang and the Sweeper found the Sky Lantern. Shang couldn't see it, but his Spirit Sense painted a beautiful image. Up in the sky, there was a second sun, but in comparison to the sun everyone knew, this one didn't hurt anyone if they dared to look at it. The second sun was pure white and bright, but it didn't injure anyone, and it also didn't give off any warmth. However, the light the second sun was giving off felt comforting. Shang felt the Mana inside his body start to move…

Shang and the Sweeper continued towards the east. All the dangerous areas were now behind them, and the only thing between them and their target was distance. The Sweeper was amazing at avoiding all kinds of beasts. Even though they had been traveling for over four days by now, not even a single beast had attacked them during all this time. Even back when Shang had traveled in groups, they had been attacked by several beasts. But the journey had been very relaxed with the Sweeper. The only problematic…
