Kale drew ever closer to the Southern Alchemy Tower as he traversed the narrow forest path.

“It’s been quite some time since you’ve visited, hasn’t it?”

The Guide Alchemist who had taken on the role of escort spoke warmly to Flavin.

“Indeed. I was here just last week. Ahem, the tower’s prosperity remains truly impressive.”

True to Flavin’s words, Kale furrowed his brow as the Southern Alchemy Tower loomed ever larger before him.
Though the mask concealed his furrowed brow from view, Kale’s eyes narrowed as the increasingly massive spectacle surrounding the Southern Alchemy Tower came into focus.

-Human! The Southern Alchemy Tower must be incredibly wealthy! It’s absolutely resplendent! Wow! Is that gold?

Unlike the Alchemy Tower in the Capital, the Southern Alchemy Tower had erected an enormous statue before its entrance.

‘…It really is gold.’

The gleaming statue held a staff and alchemical tools in its hands, dressed in the typical robes of an alchemist with its face obscured.

-Wow! Human! Isn’t that staff the statue’s holding a diamond? It’s sparkling so brilliantly!

Sigh.
As Kale quietly steadied his breathing, the alchemist’s voice reached his ears.

“Haha, aren’t all of these things thanks to the help of the Sangdang Lord? He made one-tenth of that statue, right?”
“Haha, surely all of this is thanks to the Merchant Lord’s assistance? After all, the Merchant Lord created a tenth of that statue, didn’t he?”

The owner of the top secretly glanced at Cale, who was right behind me.

‘What are you looking at?’

However, when he met Cale’s gaze, Flavin quickly turned his head straight ahead.

‘Damn it!’

Flavin felt irritation and anger in Cale’s eyes.

“I guess that’s right. Thanks to the owner of the top, everyone was able to plan for a prosperous future.”

Shut up!
Shut up already!

“Besides, I can’t tell you how grateful the lord of the southern tower is, as he willingly agreed to send us everything we need this time.”
“Moreover, you graciously sent everything we needed this time, so you cannot imagine how grateful the Tower Master of the Southern Tower is.”

Shit! Shut up!
Damn it! Just shut your mouth!

“If we soon take over everything in the capital, the lord of the merchants will gain much more wealth, power, and honor than what he spent.”

… If you want to whisper, make sure no one can hear you!
…If you’re going to whisper, at least make sure the man behind me can’t hear!

“Is that so? That’s good news.”

But on the outside he pretended to be happy.
But outwardly, he pretended to be pleased.

“It seems like a lot has happened since I couldn’t come?”

The Southern Alchemy Tower was a 10-story tower.
The Southern Alchemy Tower was a structure spanning ten floors.
A small city had formed around this tower.

However, that was not what Flavin Sangju said.

“Isn’t the village full of life?”

The alchemist smiled slyly.
The Alchemist drew a sly smile across his face.

“It’s all ours, right?”

To Flavin’s question, he smiled and answered in a whisper.

“The real troops are gathered separately.”

also.
As expected.
A flicker of intrigue danced across Kale’s eyes.

“Can I know where it is?”

Flavin asked subtly, but the alchemist just smiled and pointed to the main gate of the southern alchemy tower.

“All the high-ranking people are staying in the tower.”

What he meant was that although he could not tell the exact location of the troops, all the high-ranking people that Flavin would like were secretly staying in the tower.

“Oh, really? Good.”

Flavin smiled as if he wanted that answer, but his insides were filled with frustration. Because since he was attached to the Sun God’s side, his position was to find out the location of the troops and help the Sun God Church win.

‘Shit! ‘Nothing goes my way!’

Flavin felt like a thousand dollars were burning inside him. When I glanced up, the man on the Sun God side was smiling softly.
Flavin felt as though flames were consuming him from within. When he glanced sideways, the man from the Sun God Cult wore a gentle smile.

Flavin, who was in a hurry, opened his mouth with a relaxed expression.

“Then when can I see them?”

The guide alchemist raised his hand to the guards greeting him at the main gate.

Mei profit-
Creeeeak—
The massive gate swung open, and the interior of the Southern Alchemy Tower came into Kale’s view.

“I can meet you now.”

Flavin and Cale exchanged secret glances, and Flavin shouted excitedly.

“Hurry and guide me.”
“Then lead the way.”

Kwiik, boom!
Screeeech, thud!
The main gate of the Alchemy Tower closed behind Kale as he stepped inside.

“It’s the 7th floor.”

Cale pretended to escort Flavin and exchanged glances with Ron and Vikros on the way to the 7th floor.
While pretending to escort Flavin, I exchanged glances with Ron and Vicross as we headed toward the 7th floor.

“Sangdan lord.”

Vicross’s mouth opened.
Vicross opened his mouth.

Those words were the starting signal.

“Why but?”

He asked for understanding from the guide alchemist and then looked casually at one of his masked henchmen. That henchman, Vicross, bowed his head and said.

“I think I need to move my luggage.”
“It seems we need to move the luggage.”

Vicross’s two hands were carrying luggage.
Vicross held luggage in both his hands.

“Don’t worry. Just tell someone else to move it here.”
“Don’t worry. You can have someone else store it here.”
“Ah, that won’t do.”

Flavin whispered to the alchemist with a sinister smile.

“This is my sincere gift to precious people.”
“It’s a token of my sincerity for our esteemed guests.”

As if he understood, the alchemist caught the passerby and attached it to Vicross. And he told me the location of the room where Singten would stay.

“Then I’ll be back.”

Vikros bowed to Flavin and greeted him.

“What are you talking about?”

At that moment, Flavin looked sharply at Vikros and added,

“I know how precious they are. Protect them. Do you understand?”
“Do you understand how precious those are? Guard them well. Understood?”

Vikros walked away from the group carrying two large luggage bags and headed towards Flavin’s room.
Vicross picked up two large travel bags and, separating from the group, headed toward Flavin’s quarters.

“I didn’t ask you to protect this place because I didn’t trust you. You know?”
“I didn’t ask you to guard this place because I don’t trust it. You understand, don’t you?”
“Ah, of course. I understand. I know what’s in your heart.”

Flavin quickly handed something to the alchemist. It was a money bag. The alchemist was shocked, but soon smiled brightly and politely pointed in front of Flavin.

“I will take you there.”
“I shall escort you.”

Cale nodded to Flavin, and Flavin then walked towards his destination with light steps.

At that moment, Raon’s voice came into Cale’s head.

-Human! Vicross is good at cooking and will be able to move the magic bomb well! Don’t worry!

Underneath the mask, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of Cale’s mouth.

Two large luggage bags filled with Vicross.
The two large travel bags that Vicross carried.

Erhaven’s handmade, state-of-the-art magic bomb.

Vikros will stay in Flavin Singten’s room in the name of protecting valuable items.
Vicross would remain in Flavin Sinten’s quarters under the guise of guarding valuable items.

“flaw.”

Cale swallowed the laughter that escaped his mind.
Kale swallowed the laughter that had escaped unbidden from his lips.

“Here we go.”

And finally, the 7th floor. When you reach a place where there are many high-ranking people.

Sigh.
Creeeeak.

-Human! Shocking!

Like Raon, Kale was shocked.

‘These rotten things! Anyway, that’s true!’

South Tower 7th floor.
The 7th Floor of the Southern Alchemy Tower.
The entire floor was a grand banquet hall.
The interior was decorated with gold, jewels, and ornate fabrics.

No, to put it simply, I was playing and eating.

‘These crazy things!’

A major battle, one that could be called a civil war, was scheduled to take place.
A massive battle—one that could be called a civil war—was supposed to unfold.

-Human! I feel somehow unfair! For some reason, I feel angry! I want to destroy everything here!

Like Raon said, I wanted to destroy everything.
I wanted to destroy everything just as Raon said.

‘I can’t see the main characters.’

An impression of the enemy’s main character that Lord Rex had given him in the Mogor capital appeared in Kayle’s mind.

The owner of the south tower was not visible in the banquet hall.
The Tower Master of the Southern Alchemy Tower was not visible in the banquet hall.

‘At least it means they are properly prepared for battle.’

Cale was finally able to truly feel the atmosphere of the banquet hall.
I finally felt the true atmosphere of the banquet hall.
Half were genuinely indulging in revelry, while the other half harbored worry and tension about what was to come.

‘That’s fun,’

They were having a lot of fun playing.

“Oh! Is Singten Sangsangju here!”
“Ah! The Sinten Merchant Lord has arrived!”

Flavin walked to the center of the banquet hall and politely greeted a drunk nobleman.

“Hehe, you too, drink some alcohol. You’ve come a long way. The alcohol here tastes really good!”
“Hehe, have some drink yourself. You’ve traveled far. The wine here is absolutely exquisite!”
“Is that so?”

Flavin answered politely, but glanced at Cale. Then he whispered to the marquis who soon approached him.

“I have some good stuff.”
“I have something of value to show you.”

Greed arose in the Marquis’ eyes.
Greed flickered in the Marquis’s eyes.

“Did you hear the location earlier? Go and get it.”
“You heard the location earlier, didn’t you? Go fetch it.”

When Kayle answered politely, Flavin spoke kindly to the alchemist who guided him.

“You can stop now. Thank you.”
“You can rest now. Thank you for your help.”

The alchemist who had received something asked with goodwill, and Flavin shook his head.

“It’s okay. Is it okay for people like us to do this? You, go and come back.”

The alchemist who was bound by Flavin’s words was secretly pleased, and the Marquis waited for the precious item to arrive soon.
The Alchemist bound by Flavin’s words was secretly pleased, and the Marquis waited for the precious item that would soon arrive.

People at the Alchemy Tower glanced at Cale, who was wearing a mask and black clothes, but when he came out of the 7th floor banquet hall, they passed by him as if they were familiar with him.

-Human, shall we begin?

Raon’s question was heard. At that moment, Cale went down to the 6th floor and headed to a corner where people were hard to see, a place where there were shadows.

I couldn’t feel the gaze around me.

-No one is looking!

Cale nodded at Raon’s confirmation.

Kale hiding in the shadows.
I concealed myself in the shadows.

‘Shall we begin?’

Cale grabbed the golden spinning top in his arms.

‘It’s the 8th floor! ‘8th floor!’

One of the three wind spirits who teleported together from the Empire shouted excitedly.

‘Kkkkkkkkkkkk! Sounds fun! Go to the 8th floor! ‘I’ll show you the way!’

Cale came out of the shadows with a very light breeze.

“hmm?”

A passerby tilted his head for a moment due to the slight wind, but when he saw nothing, he started walking again.
A passerby tilted their head slightly at the gentle wind, but seeing nothing, they continued on their way.
I passed them and soared upward on the wind toward the 8th floor.

‘It’s definitely different.’

Unlike the 7th floor, the 8th floor had knights standing guard from the entrance.

‘are you okay! ‘We will erase your traces and sounds!’

However, with the help of the three wind spirits, Kale was able to easily avoid the gaze.
However, I moved easily while avoiding attention with the help of three Wind Spirits.

‘end! ‘It’s the end room!’
‘The end! It’s the end room!’
‘Not a room. It’s more like a storage shed.’

I heard only what I needed to hear from the conversation between the three wind spirits.

-Human! There are three people in the second room, one in the fifth room, and two in the last room!

Raon told me the number of people in the room. Cale carefully headed to the last room.
Raon informed me of the number of people in each room. I carefully headed toward the room at the very end.

I felt like I was popular.
I felt a presence.

‘Come out soon!’

The moment the spirit spoke, the sound of a doorknob being turned reached Cale’s ears.

Mei profit-
Creeeeak—

“Did you understand everything correctly?”
“You’ve got everything mapped out correctly, right?”
“Of course. Phew, it’s incredible.”

The two alchemists talked.
The two alchemists conversed.

“hmm?”

At that moment, his cheek felt itchy, so he let go of the doorknob for a moment and stroked his cheek.

“what?”

He roughly rubbed his cheek and closed the open door again.

“Quickly close it and come back.”
“Hurry and close it.”

He quickly closed the door hard upon hearing his senior’s words.

Quang!

“Hey! Be careful!”
“Hey! Be careful!”

Ah, my cheeks are itchy for no reason.
Damn, my cheek was just itching like crazy.

‘Hehehehe, I tickled your cheek! ‘You idiot!’
‘Hehehehe, it was me tickling his cheek! This fool!’

The two wind spirits laughed mischievously as they watched the alchemist chasing their senior.
The two Wind Spirits laughed mischievously as they watched the Alchemist chase after his senior.

‘It’s easy.’

Cale turned towards the closed door and took in the scenery inside the room.
Kale Heniatus turned his body toward the closed door and took in the sight of the room.

“Human, human! There is no one nearby! I stopped the magic device for a moment! If I turn it on again later when I leave, it won’t be noticeable!”

Raon removed his invisibility and confidently exclaimed, sticking out his plump belly.
Raon dropped his invisibility and declared confidently, his round belly thrust forward.

“Then let’s begin.”
“Then let’s begin.”

A big smile appeared on Raon’s lips.

“flaw.”

Cale also laughed.
Kale couldn’t help but laugh.
His gaze swept across the room.

‘Flavin Sangjangju.’

Cale asked the owner of the top before coming here.

‘The Alchemy Tower probably requested magic stones from others besides you, right?’
‘The Alchemy Tower must have demanded mana stones from others besides you, right?’
‘That’s likely the case.’
‘Those mana stones would belong to the magical forces newly joining us this time, correct?’

8th floor.
The 8th Floor.

“Open.”

As Kale spoke, Raon bloomed black mana.

“Open!”

Raon shouted, and black mana surrounded the magically locked boxes.

Sweet.
Click.
Click.
Click.
One by one, the boxes opened on their own.

Inside were subspace pockets.

“Hehe.”

Cale burst out laughing.

“You mean these are all magic stones?”

He thought of the people playing and eating in the banquet hall on the 7th floor. And I thought about the leaders of the Alchemy Tower who created such a luxurious event and stole people’s attention even as they were preparing for war.

“Raon, did you fill your subspace with all the stones?”
“Raon, you’ve filled your subspace with stones, right?”

Raon and Cale’s eyes met.
My eyes and Raon’s met.

‘fraud!’
‘Fraud!’
‘Theft!’

Cale took out a subspace pouch from his arms.
I pulled a subspace pouch from my breast.
Inside were dozens of other subspace pouches.

“Do the work.”
“Let’s get to work.”

Cale picked up a subspace pouch from the box and opened it. And he poured it all into his subspace pocket.
I grabbed one subspace pouch from the box and opened it, then dumped its contents directly into my own subspace pouch.

“Hehe.”

Raon laughed and put the stones from his subspace inside.
Raon laughed and stuffed the stones from his subspace into it.

We saw humans wearing masks and black clothes, crouching down and stealing magic stones.

“Try getting hit in the back really well.”

Kale looked happy as she muttered and moved the magic stone.
As I muttered and transferred the magical stones, I looked happy.

“Human! Are you going to steal all this and use it for us?”
“Human! Are we stealing all of this to use ourselves?”

Raon suddenly remembered what Cale said to Bud.

‘Bud, this battle is two fights. Money and magic.’

Raon asked.

“Human! Is this all used for magic?”
“Human! Do we use all of this for magic?”

Cale thought.

What amazes people more than overwhelming power.
What astounded people more than overwhelming power was this:
Overwhelming extravagance with money.

Magic gemstone is an expensive item.
Mana Stones—those expensive, precious treasures.

‘The broke alchemy tower! despair! destruction! chaos! teardrop!’
‘Broke Alchemy Tower! Despair! Destruction! Chaos! Tears!’
‘Don’t be like that. The Alchemy Tower is pitiful.’

Kale ignored the spirits’ shouts and steadily stole the magic stone.
Kale ignored what the spirits were crying out and steadily stole the Mana Stones.

-… He looks like a scary devil, but at first glance he looks like an angel… … .

For the first time in a long time, the fire-destructive bastard was rumbling something, but Kale couldn’t hear him.
After a long time, Cale’s Power grumbled something, but Kale did not hear it.

Beep-
Beep—
A small signal tone sounded.

“Human! It’s smart Rosaline!”

It was a call from Rosalyn, who would be in the capital of the Kingdom of Roun.

“Connect.”

Soon the video communication port was secretly connected, and Rosalyn was silent for a moment before opening her mouth.

-What are you doing?
-What are you doing?

The wizard Rosalind, who was watching the crouching actions of the shield prince, called a hero, and the black dragon, worthy of the word great, was momentarily speechless.
