Advent of the Archmage Chapter 455

The black seal was a magic ring . Link studied it carefully, and information appeared in his vision .

Dragon Duke's Obsidian Seal (Rechargeable)

Legendary

Effect 1: Instantaneously creates a Level-12 shield after activating (3/3)

Effect 2: Teleportation from five to 50 miles (3/3)

Effect 3: Summon the Red Dragon Queen!

(Note: According to dragon tradition, dragons who possess the black seal will automatically become the only candidate for the Red Dragon Queen's companion . )

This seal was useful . It was a shield that could transport him—it was practically lifesaving . The note made Link speechless though . Didn't "only candidate" basically mean future husband?

The Red Dragon Queen did something like this without telling him again .

No, I can't take this . It'll cause problems . How will I explain to Celine later?

Link troubled over this for a long while . Finally, he used the Magician's Hand to place the seal on the table beside him . With the soft clack, he stopped thinking about it .

Materialize rewards, he told the game system .

Ding! His vision flashed, and a money pouch-like thing appeared in his hands . He opened it to see 50 Jogu that looked like white Go pieces .

He got 50 from this mission . With the 25 from the last mission, he now had 75 Jogu . Aisenis had said that if Link gave him 300 Jogu, he would provide the way to mend the crack .

It wasn't far away now .

However, he wouldn't get Epic missions every day . Link decided that after his body recovered, he would go to relics to find Jogu . Right, he could also give rewards for people to help him look .

Other than Jogu, there was also a heavy dark blue belt . Looking at it, the messages appeared .

Assassin's Dragon King Belt

Lower-Order Legendary (11)

Effect: Activates the Infinite Dragon Power effect . The user's Dragon Power recovery rate increases by 1000% for 20 seconds . This effect can be used once per month .

(Note: With this, you no longer have to worry about using up Dragon Power . )

"Great . " Link put away the belt .

He didn't have anything else to do, so he took out the book Dragon to read . He'd been studying the contents for half a month but still only knew the basics . If he wanted to study it all, it would take one or two years .

Link had an idea . Dragons and humans are from the same source . If I can find the secret to Dragon Power and transform it into a battle art, there will be many more powerful humans . At that time, they won't be bullied by others anymore .

With this goal in mind, Link grew even more serious .

Time flew by and half a day passed . There was a sudden sound by the door . Link looked over to see Gretel walk in with some food .

She took a few steps and saw the black seal Link put on the table . Her steps faltered, but she didn't stop . Gretel continued forward and placed the food on the table . Picking up the seal, she asked casually, "How come you put it here?"

Link was still focused on the book . Hearing the question, he looked up . Seeing Gretel holding the seal, he instantly felt awkward . After a pregnant pause, he shrugged . "I saw a book in the library, called Traditional Power . It introduced the seal . I don't think I'm suitable for a duke . "

He actually hadn't read that book, but he'd seen the title at the library, so he just stole it .

"A mortal's life is short . I can wait for 100 years later . " Since Link knew, Gretel didn't have to hide it anymore . She handed the seal to him .

Link felt awkward . This was his first time in a situation like this, but the Red Dragon Queen had lived for 2000 years . She could calmly face these things but Link couldn't .

He didn't know what to do . If he rejected her, he would feel heartless . If he accepted, he would be heartless to Celine . He was caught .

Seeing him like this, Gretel burst into laughter . She suddenly realized that this powerful Legendary Magician was only a 20-year-old young man and she had been so scared of getting rejected .

This gave her a psychological advantage . She tossed the seal into Link's lap, saying, "Take it, kid . Only the elders know this tradition . Even the younger dragons don't know . Just take it . You don't have to wear it; just protect yourself . When you think it through, wear it on your left middle finger, and I'll sense it . "

This was well-said and immediately soothed Link's troubles . He was realistic . Hearing the queen's words, he quickly put the seal away . "Then I'll take it . "

Grinning, Gretel brought over a bowl of soup and set the spoon down . "I was ready to feed you . So many people want me to feed them, but I know you won't accept it . Here, do it yourself . This soup is made from the purple moon cassava grown in the Moonlight Forest in the south of the Dragon Valley . It's miraculous for healing . Drink it while it's still hot . "

"Oh, okay . " Link sniffed, and a rich aroma hit his nose . His appetite was awakened . He took a sip; the aromatic softness tasted great . He quickly slurped the soup down .

Gretel sat beside the bed . Seeing how happy Link was while eating, she couldn't help but smile . As expected, under the Legendary Magician, he was just a kid who hadn't experienced much .

This bratty kid .

When Link was done, Gretel asked, "How was it?"

Link felt a warm current flow through his stomach . He rubbed his stomach gently . It had hurt before, but with this warmth, the pain was gone .

He nodded continuously . "It's delicious . "

"There will be more but the cassava it's only for me . I gave it to you now, so I don't have any left . You have to pay me back . "

"Uh…how?"

"You're an Enchantment Magician . Those guys took the Emerald Circle . And those stabilizing runes…"

Link chuckled . "Oh, that? That's easy . How about tomorrow? I can start tomorrow . "

Gretel quickly shook her head . "No need to hurry . You can rest a few more days, and I'll finish the easier parts . I'll leave the difficult things to you . "

"No problem . "

"Oh, there's also this . " Gretel took out a magic book for Link . "Lucia Silverstar told me to give this to you . It's her notes . "

Hearing this, Link ignored his injuries and sat up, reaching for the book . This was a Legendary figure's gains . It was more valuable than a whole country!

The words Secret Power was written in delicate font . Lucia Silverstar seemed to specialize in Secret spells . It happened to be just what Link lacked .

He flipped through and scanned roughly . Link's eyes brightened . He hadn't heard of many of the knowledge introduced in the book . These notes will definitely widen his view of the Secret spells . He'd been at a disadvantage because of this before .

Putting the book away carefully, Link asked, "How is Silverstar now?"

"She went to the Neanderthals' ancestral place to rest . I sent a Warrior to escort her . We won't see her anymore . " Gretel was a bit sad . Silverstar was her old friend, but only her soul was left now . This was the same as dying .

Link felt it was unfortunate too . With Silverstar, Firuman was one Legendary figure fewer . It was a pity .

"Alright, rest well . You'll be busy in a few days . "

Link spent the days recovering in the Dragon Temple . Three days later, his wounds were mostly healed, so he started working on the stabilizing runes .

These runes were very complicated . Non-Legendary figures couldn't do them . Even with Link and Gretel working together, one runestone required three days, but they needed at least ten . This meant it would take one month to complete .

Link just took it as Enchantment practice .

While creating these runestones, he also discussed some magic questions with Gretel . He was especially interested in the healing properties of Dragon Power .

Naturally, Gretel didn't hold anything back in answering .

One month later, the runes were complete, and Link had learned a few healing spells . They weren't very effective on his body, but that was because his body was too strong . The spells would be like divine spells on regular people .

After completing the runes, they went to Korora Mountain Range to set them . It was also a success . After setting the runes, the cracked region was completely sealed inside a dome . It was practically isolated from the Firuman Realm .

However, this only solved the surface instead of the core . Mana would continue accumulating in that region . Once the density surpassed the limit of the runes, there would be a pop and Mana would flood out . The Mana density of the entire Firuman Realm would instantly multiply many times .

Mana's sudden explosion wouldn't cause much damage, but it wasn't good either . To counter this, Link and Gretel also worked to set up alarm equipment around the runes . Once the Mana was about to reach the limit, the alarm would go off automatically .

Looking at the isolated area in the mountain, Link predicted, "It should last ten years . During this time, I'll look for a way to mend the crack . "

"I can tell that you already have an idea, right?" Gretel asked, chuckling . After spending so much time together, she knew Link better . For example, his brows were relaxed while talking now . Even though he didn't say anything definite, Gretel knew that he already had a plan in mind .

Link smiled . "I can't fool you . I know a very powerful Travel Magician . He said that he has a plan, but he needs some things in exchange . "

With that, Link took out a Jogu to give Gretel . "He needs 300 of this . Have you seen this before?"

Gretel studied the Jogu and shook her head . "It only looks like a pretty stone to me . Where did you find it?"

"In relics . Some ancient people used it as decorations . "

Hearing this, the Red Dragon Queen chuckled wryly . "You want to rob tombs?"

Link shrugged . "Compared to the safety of the realm, that's nothing . "

"You're right . Give me one as a sample . I'll send my Warriors to look all over the continent . Once it's enough, I'll send it to you . "

"No problem . "

Seeing that it was getting late, Link said, "My injuries are all healed . I won't spend more time in the Dragon Valley . Felina, I'll have to bother you again . "

"It's nothing, Duke," Felina said, chuckling . She transformed into dragon form, and Link climbed onto her .

"Come visit when you're free . " Gretel waved at Link .

"I will . " Link waved as well .

Felina began flying . This time, she wouldn't get tired . When she did, Link would pump Flawless Dragon Power into her, and she would instantly become revitalized .

She brought Link eastward and landed in Ferde within half a day . Felina didn't go back to the Dragon Valley . She stayed in Ferde as the guard of Duke Link .

Yes, Link was now a duke of the Dragon Valley . This wasn't just an honorary title . He had true authority and was also recognized by the entire dragon race .

Of course, he wouldn't use this authority unless he had no other choice .

Link walked towards his Mage Tower . At the entrance, he saw a familiar man . It was Skinorse of MI3 . He was disguised as a regular wandering vigilante .

"How come you have time to see me?" Link asked, smiling .

Skinorse's expression was off . He looked side to side and muttered, "Lord, I've been waiting for a long time . I need to talk to you in private!"
