Leo walked back to the house. When he entered it, the house just seemed empty. Daphne hadn't taken a lot of stuff with her, but now that the house only housed one occupant, it felt very hollow. By leaving, she took away the life from the house with her. Even though he hadn't talked with her a lot while she was there, just knowing that she was there was enough for him. But now that she was gone, he didn't know what to do all of a sudden. After sitting on the couch for a while, he realized what his new…

"Okay, I am going to check outside to see what the situation is there, and then I will come back," Leo said. She nodded. He went out and started racking his brain. He had been avoiding her which might have made her this distant to him, but it didn't explain why she was very unresponsive to him. Normally she was very cheerful, but she seemed very gloomy today. He went to the inn like he normally did and checked the situation out. When he got there, the inn was almost deserted. There was nobody there.…

In the center of Solhaven stood a tower the same size as the Thousand Treasure Tower. This was the tower of the Magistrate. On the topmost floor was a nice office where an old man was sitting in a fancy chair. He was the magistrate of Solhaven. He wasn't doing anything, just resting in the chair. Beside him was a desk with a few stacks of documents that were piled up. Suddenly, his eyes flew open and he got up from his chair. He looked in the direction of the commoner's district. He could feel the…

The bud swelled as if pulsating with life and energy from within. Its outer layers, once a deep shade of emerald green, began to unfurl, revealing delicate layers of vibrant petals or leaves. The unfolding process was akin to a dance orchestrated by nature itself. As the bud continued to bloom, its true essence was revealed. Petals unfurled with a gentle, yet purposeful, precision, exposing intricate patterns, vivid colors, and mesmerizing textures. Each petal or leaf exuded an ethereal glow, as if…

"What do you mean?" Leo asked Miller. He wanted to know exactly how bad the outbreak had gotten. "The Outer Forest is completely filled with 2nd Circle Magical Beasts. There are 1st Circle Magical Beasts wandering around the outskirts too. None of the commoners who don't have aura are leaving the city premises. We don't have any income left." He said. "As for the adventurers, they have no choice but to take the risk and enter the forest. A lot of them were unfortunate and met 2nd Circle Magical…

Leo opened his eyes. He had gone through all of the leaves that the plant had in this time. The plant was now completely bare and looked like it was going to die, but he had made so much progress that he thought it was worth it. In the two weeks, he had successfully gotten to the Peak-Stage of the 2nd Circle. All he needed to do was break through to the 3rd Circle. This would also make him one of the most powerful people in Solhaven. Obviously, all of this was because of the tome, but he still felt a…

(A/N: Check Auxiliary Chapters for announcement) The next morning, he got up early again to go to the forest. He walked to the forest without any dagger because he wasn't planning on using his aura techniques. He was going to only hunt 2nd Circle Magical Beasts, so he was going to use his magic. He prepared himself a cloak to hide his identity in case someone saw him. He was now very used to looking for Magical Beasts in the forest since they were all in the Outer Forest. They weren't in packs…

He went back to the forest the next day. He upgraded from just weak Magical Beasts to Early-Stage Magical Beasts as well. He didn't want to go against any Middle-Stage Magical Beasts with his aura yet because he knew he wouldn't be able to do much. He spent most of the day using his Twilight Veil Slash against them. He commonly paired that with the Shadow Step to get to his opponent quickly without it noticing so his proficiency in that was improving as well. He didn't realize it because he wasn't…
-
The reason he didn't want to bring Daphne was that the possibility that he would encounter a 2nd Circle Magical Beast was fairly high. Since he was going to venture into the forest, it would be better if he was alone so that he could use his mage powers. With Daphne, he would be handicapped since he would be limited to using his aura which he wasn't used to. He walked to the forest. On the way, he dropped by the inn again to see if there were any changes. With the Blacktooth Gang gone for only ten…
-
His urgency to train in magic was not just because of the incoming Beast Wave. He would be fine in the wave even if it happened as it is. He could even run away from the city with Daphne. They could leave everything they had at Solhaven because they didn't have anything to care about. Even if they stayed, both of them were 1st Circle Aura Knights. As long as they stayed inside the city, they would be able to fight off the stray Magical Beasts that managed to enter the city. But Leo wasn't planning on…
