Even though it should be a short mission, it would most likely be a very dangerous one.
After being dismissed by Headmaster Delbrand, everyone went on their separate ways to finish their business before leaving for the mission.
As for Ery, he returned to the Terra Palace to inform the Eastern Sage and the others.
After thinking about it, he just left a bottle filled with the revival pill and a note in his room saying he had decided to stay and would be away for a while because he had gotten a lead on the whereabouts of his friends.
The note only contained a short ssage without explaining anything, as he was strictly prohibited from disclosing any information about the mission. On the other hand, he didn't want to put Julian in a difficult position. After all, one of them had to go ho.
"You did the right thing, the less people know about the mission the better," Silva said, who accompanied Ery and was watching him write down the note.
However, as they were about to leave, they ran into Fuxi and since he didn't want to tell lies to his senior, Ery briefly explained he would be joining a mission to save his friends.
Needless to say, the Eastern Sage showed his concern about the plan but in the end, the latter only heaved a sigh and supported his decision, "Be careful, Ery and go bring them ho."
Ery nodded his head in conviction and continued on his way.
Together with Silva, Ery quickly left the Terra Kingdom and went to his next destination, the Hyperion planet.
"Wow, I can finally co and see this place," said Silva, who never had a chance to enter the planet because of her leaving the academy.
The girl looked very excited as Ery took care of her visitor access to the planet.
There were two reasons Ery had decided to co to this place. The first was to retrieve his last batch of [Spirit Foundation Pill]. As for the second reason, that was related to the reward of a divine-tier skill he won from the tournant.
It didn't take long for the figure of Magus Ramona to appear before the two of them. She showed a more compliant attitude than usual, most likely due to Ery's second place finish in the Magus Tournant.
"Congratulations on your success in the tournant! I always knew from the first ti I t you that you were special. All your fights were incredible."
Her over friendly attitude quickly put the magus on Silva's blacklisted list.
As for Ery, having absolutely no celebratory mood or intent, he quickly stopped the magus before she could say more. "I apologize, Senior, but I'm currently in a rush. Can you please just help with the items?"
"Aaa…" A deflated expression appeared on Magus Ramona's face, but it quickly disappeared and she nodded her head in understanding. "Yes, of course. Please wait a mont."
Just like the previous tis, Ery received a wooden box which was filled with 40 Spirit Foundation Pills, but nothing about the divine art. With a wry smile on her face, Magus Ramona explained.
"Divine-tier skills are a very valuable commodity, so it requires ti to prepare so options that are deed suitable to choose. I can arrange it so you can et the person in charge in two or three days."
Ery heaved a sigh when he heard that. After all, he only had less than twenty four hours until his mission.
However, Silva didn't seem willing to let this slip by easily. "Are you guys serious? He cannot wait two days! Everyone knows he's from a lower realm, he will be returning ho tomorrow. Don't you get it!? He won't be returning in years!"
Those words sent Magus Ramona into a panic. "I am sorry… it's an unintended mistake, afterall we never had a winner from the lower world before, not ever".
The female magus turns disbelief saying, "But… You are returning to your world!? Soone with such extraordinary talent like you?! Why?"
Silva interrupted her, "That is none of your business, rather you should be concerned about getting his reward right away!"
Knowing that Silva's lies could potentially make things complicated, Ery quickly stopped her and said, "My friend here is not serious. Thank you for your help, Senior." Seeing the look on her face, he added, " I will co back for that reward later."
Ery's words seed to irritate the white-haired girl even more. When they finally exited the Hyperion center, Silva looked more upset about the whole situation than Ery.
On the other hand, Ery was not angry about her rude actions, because he knew she did it for him.
"Don't be upset, Silva. Even if I had gotten the skill earlier, I wouldn't have been able to master it in a matter of days." Glancing at her, he saw she was still a little annoyed. "Besides, I need so ti to think about what I want. And who knows, maybe the mission will help know better what kind of skill I need."
Those words seed to have taken her by surprise, if the expression on her face was genuine. She then smiled and said, "I guess you got much wiser now."
Turning her head towards the front, she then asked, "Where shall we go next?"
A smile appeared on Ery's face when he heard that question. "I need to see my little friends."
"Little friends?" asked Silva, confusion evident in her voice. "Little like the dwarves?"
Ery just smiled at her and didn't elaborate further. The two of them rode the orbiter to fly towards a certain flying island with powerful nature energy, whereupon Ery then showed the white-haired girl his spirit cave.
"I can see that this place does suit you very much," Silva comnted as she saw the interior of the cave.
But as they walked deeper, the white-haired girl was surprised to see a dozen or so plant creatures filling a lush garden located deep within the cave. All of them cheered when they saw the two of them arrive.
Kuang… kuang… kuang.
Out of the dozen plant creatures, there was one that was bigger than the others and, seeing it, Ery quickly called him.
"Chiku! Can you please call the others to co?"
Silva involuntarily gasped in surprise again at the sight of more plant creatures erging from the ground. In the end, there were a total of twenty-three such creatures, with five noticeably bigger than the others and one unique-looking one who jumped right on Ery.
"Kuang kuang!"
"Twik, yes… I am glad to see all of you too."
