Javier's Promise
"You just told me that you searched for me for 100 years?" Luda asked, and Javier nodded. "Don't you think that maybe I had died by then? Why are you so stubborn, continuing to search for me all that time?" Luda asked curiously.Javier burst out laughing upon hearing Luda's words. He even had to hold his stomach because it hurt from laughing too hard."I didn't just think once or twice that you might have died out there. Especially since at that time Terra was still very chaotic, but then... I thought again. Even if you have passed away after 100 years have gone by, with my search possibly being in vain, I still very much hope to meet you. Even if it is just a gravestone from your grave."Luda fell silent, staring at Javier. Luda had learned a lot during her time with Tha, and she truly knew that elves are mortal beings with long lifespans. Javier might now be in his 400s, but Luda knew that elves can live for over 1,000 years. Elves are also creatures who love to learn and read. This
'I'm home... Erel!'
"The easternmost border of Terra?" Luda asked.When Luda realized that they were at the easternmost border of Terra, Luda remembered the soldier who came with Leah. The soldier had said that Tha and the others were also near the border of Terra. However, their locations were far apart. Luda and Javier were in Andreas, the easternmost part of Terra, while Tha and the others were in the Desolate Unclaimed Land, the westernmost part."Where are we going? Who wants to meet with me?" Luda asked curiously. This was even the first time Luda came to that place, and Luda felt like she didn't know anyone there at all."Just follow me!" said Javier.Luda could only snort in annoyance at Javier's attitude. More than 100 years have passed, and according to Luda, Javier's attitude towards her hasn't changed one bit. His nature is sometimes foolish and still childish. According to Luda, searching for someone for 100 years is the craziest thing she has ever known. Luda was completely baffled by Javie
Keeping a promise
Keeping a promise proved to be not as easy as saying it, and this is what Lyudmila Volkova experienced. To keep her promise to Erel, Luda was even expelled by her family because she was considered a disgrace and a bringer of misfortune. Luda was even falsely accused by Erel's family and her own family as the cause of Erel's death.Luda's suffering didn't stop there. At the age of not even 15, Luda had to survive alone amidst the turmoil happening in Terra. In his struggle to survive alone, Antonnie Xander, the mad alchemist, accidentally discovered Luda and made her one of the test subjects for the immortality magic experiment he was developing at the time. Even so, at the same time, Antonnie also taught Luda how to make medicinal potions and introduced her to various types of medicinal plants.Tsabitha Youenha was the one who later adopted Luda when Antonnie's private laboratory caught fire due to sabotage by the Magic Association. Unfortunately, at the same time, Luda's physical con
You are the most important person in my life.
"So... all this time you two weren't a couple?" Javier asked, still with the same shocked expression on his face as when he heard Luda's story earlier.Luda shook her head. "No," Luda said then. "Erel only asked me to pretend to be his girlfriend. Nevertheless... for some reason, I still keep my promise to Erel."Luda smiled. "I... at first, I never understood why Erel asked me to keep living and be true to myself. I even once felt very regretful. Why did I promise him to fulfill that request before he left forever? I could have given up on that promise by asking Antonnie to kill me earlier. So that I could die sooner, just like the other children who had been experimented on. However, lately I've been thinking. Erel might have known what kind of life I would lead since 111 years ago. Maybe he already knew it long ago, even long before I experienced it. Until then, he asked me to promise to do both things. I could actually be angry at Erel.""Aren't you angry? Don't you think all of t
Farewell
Two months before Luda's 15th birthday, Anthonius visited Luda for the umpteenth time. On that day, Anthonius came to meet Luda to say goodbye. Anthonius said that he would be carrying out a task from Afar and might not return for the next 3 months. At the same time, Anthonius informally proposed to Luda. Because Luda had not yet reached adulthood according to Terra's rules. Luda, who was still very young at that time, left Anthonius without a word. Luda actually never accepted or rejected Anthonius's proposal, but Anthonius interpreted Luda's departure at that time as a rejection.All of Anthonius's treatment towards Luda at that time had truly been able to melt Luda's heart. Unfortunately, at the same time, Luda realized that their relationship was a forbidden one, and Luda truly knew that she and her family would face many problems if she were honest with herself and accepted Anthonius's proposal. Luda knows that elves and humans cannot live together. Humans have a very short lifes
Radiation Exposure
Antonnie and the others were questioning Meuz in the Desolate Land. Even when Anthonius cursed Meuz with Blood, the interrogation procedure was sluggish. Meuz appeared to be stalling in order to prolong their stay there. The radiation effects from the magical residue Tha used to kill Daniel would also gradually kill Antonnie and the others, therefore his actions would undoubtedly have a major influence on their health. After realizing Meuz's plan, Tha gave Anthonius the command to remove them all from the Desolate Land as quickly as possible. Tha's request first perplexed Anthonius, but he promptly complied."Miss Tha, what happened?" asked Anthonius with a puzzled expression after he managed to bring them all away from the Lawless Wasteland. "I haven't even finished the interrogation process," Anthonius said again.Tha did not answer Anthonius's question but instead walked towards Meuz while brandishing a knife right at Meuz's neck. "You want to kill us with my own magic?!" Tha said
The Borderland
"She finally left!" said Meuz.Despite his surrendering gesture, Meuz appeared more at ease following Tha's departure. According to Tha's instructions, Anthonius started questioning Meuz right once, and Antonnie remained ten meters or so away from Meuz's location, with a bow and magical arrows."Meuz... You used to be one of the people in Terra that I respected. However, I believed that many of your ideas were truly harmful to different parties once I joined the Crimson Knight and even rose to the position of highest leader. At first, your generosity sounded wonderful, but as I looked more closely at those policies, I discovered that they were actually quite dishonest and more detrimental to Terrans, including us rank S wizards."Anthonius walked towards Meuz, with an expression of disappointment clearly visible on his face."Meuz... what exactly are you planning for all of us?!" Antonius asked, trying to hold back his anger. "How could you be so cruel to do all this to us?!""So that
Meuz's Plan
"People often neglect the border areas of Terra and tend to focus only on the major cities within Terra. Such as Sofya, Filanesia, and also Andreas. Including important cities in Terra like City Ein and Tohron. Because they are considered unimportant, the security in these cities is not as tight as in the major cities of Terra. This gives many opportunities to certain parties who indeed want to take control of these areas." Meuz then showed Anthonius how to create cracks in the protective barrier of Terra that he had made."What are you doing?!" Anthonus asked, confused and shocked as he saw the magical shield Meuz had created suddenly crack and nearly shatter.Meus chuckled upon hearing Anthonius's question. "I'm showing you how to destroy Terra's protective barrier. Including how I managed to bring Yokr Xarya and the others into Terra without anyone ever knowing!" Meuz said with great arrogance and pride."Didn't you just say that a shield made with the same technique as Terra's pro
The God of Time
Although Anthonius had never battled with Zamman, he had heard tales of the god of time's combat. Zamman is a wizard who does not fall into either group if Meuz and Afar are two wizards with flawless protection systems, positioned in the front lines as the vanguard, and Zu is the primary damage dealer. Since the majority of Zamman's offensive magic causes debuff effects for his opponents, he might be regarded as a debuffer.One of Terra's founders is Zamman. Zamman did not learn any kind of offensive or even defensive magic, in contrast to the majority of wizards of his era. Unlike Antonnie, Zamman was neither a medical wizard nor an alchemist. The majority of Zamman's magic is of the curse kind, and the cursed contracts are frequently connected to dark magic and other incredibly intricate sealing methods that only Zamman himself can grasp. Zaman frequently uses a variety of assault spells in direct battle that do very common damage but come with debuffs that are potentially lethal.T
The Complicated Magic
Tha explained to Antonnie that Dima was affected by the radiation used to kill Daniel, a half-demon creature also sent by Yokr Xarya. The radiation emitted by each dandelion seed transforms into tiny needles that then infiltrate Dima's body, destroying each cell at the DNA level. She explained too that the process is indeed very slow for the needles to penetrate each cell, but that doesn't mean they can delay the operation to extract each magical needle from Dima's body. In fact, they must do it as quickly as possible before the needles have a chance to damage Dima's cells. If that happens, it will be nearly impossible for them to restore Dima's body forever."So... is that white, sparkling powder the tiny needles you took from Dima's body?" Antonnie asked with a surprised expression on his face."Tha... have you gone mad!" Antonnie exclaimed again while observing Tha's hands, which were still trembling and swollen.Luda approached Tha, bringing a towel that had been soaked in warm wa
