It was a night with the full moon shining brightly with the stars, a beauty unattainable by human hands.

However it was the worst night when the beautiful castle was burned by the red flames. Anyone would know that it was a damned fire.

The flowers that adorned the castle began to burn rapidly by the red whiz. Many people started running around and the knights seemed to be trying to extinguish.

“Stupid! Damned fire will not be extinguished with plain water!”

The old man, the chivalrous head of the castle looked castrated, he had very deep worries.

“Come to find the mistress and her children! His life is worth more than ours!”

Cruel but that's the reality. A hundred warriors would not be worth the life of the castle owner and his children.

However the people who serve in this castle believe, one day there will be light coming to the Knight kingdom.

The old knight chief found movement within the fire. It looked like a little girl crying and walking in the heat of the fire.

“Nona!” The old man immediately rushed through the rosy flames.

His armour started to heat up and almost melted, but that didn't stop him. He took off his armour and all that was able to melt before hugging the little girl.

There were burns on his neck and back, the old knight's head immediately carried the little girl away for treatment.

“This is a burn from a cursed fire, quickly handle it carefully!”

“Uncle, my mother and twin brother are still inside! Save them!”

The old commander nodded and drained Mana all over his body. The heat cannot be retained but can still be minimized. Not to mention that this fire contained a curse, it was better to maintain Mana than nothing.

“You immediately take holy water or use anything that has the power of purification!”

Finished giving his orders he entered the blaze.

The little girl who began to lose consciousness stared at the castle where she lived which began to disintegrate and collapse.

He started to hear a faint scream from within.

“No, Iu—”

Everything went dark. He woke up from his bed with a body flooded with sweat. The woman awoke with breathless breath, tears flowing as tears came from her dreams.

He closed his eyes with both hands. His right hand has a long black pattern starting from his shoulders to his back.

“Hah~, this nightmare again .. what kind of calamity will happen?”

***

The East Port suffered considerable damage that can be said to be everywhere. But all of them were not monsters that attacked the city. The biggest contribution was to Shin's order destroying the aqueduct door.

In addition, there are some pieces of meteor that were destroyed Alda fell into several places even though the damage was minimized. Alda managed to destroy the large meteor and make the fragments do not fall much into the city.

The originally panicked citizens were stunned because the meteor shards looked beautiful to them. It was a truly magnificent rescue for the main protagonist.

But there is no happiness. This attack took a lot of casualties and it was a very painful thing. Even Shin hated the loss of life more than the destruction of the city.

“Well, I can say this is a pretty good result. Had that Lich bastard entered the city, or the meteor fell then undoubtedly the damage was worse.”

Arcturus gazed out the window and watched the clear blue sky despite the depressing cityscape to behold.

“Are you sure you're not trying to chase that bastard?” asked Alda who was sitting on the other side of Arcturus' room. “Can only he come back again and destroy the city.”

Alda was worried that Zegion would come back again to destroy this city. But Arcturus was not worried about him at all. For the Zegion to attack this city was not important at all.

“No need to worry, he will not get any benefit from this city.”

Both fangs could belong to Jomungandr disappeared. It was proof that Zegion was really looking for gold porridge.

“The snake's net was useful to help him find the Special Porridge.”

The higher the evolution of the Serpent, the more likely it is that the fangs can be the guides where the Special Porridge is located.

“I don't know what kind of porridge you mean. But shouldn't we hurry before he finds her?”

Alda is wrong. If Zegion were to find him then things would be very troublesome.

In his previous life Arcturus managed to find him and destroy him, but unfortunately he was a little late. Zegion found it and used it.

“Just relax, at least I'm sure he needs time to find her.”

Although there are some changes that occur in this round of the world, but Arcturus believes major events will come at the appropriate time in the novel.

In addition there is a reason why Arcturus cannot rush.

Arcturus approached Alda, while talking leisurely.

“In addition there are things that are a priority for now.”

Arcturus' priority to face the Moon Banquet has not changed. It was a meeting he needed to attend. In addition, Arcturus had already sown the seeds for his plan.

Then the other priority was to help the Main Protagonist regain his strength. Although the seal on his soul could not, at least his right hand could be released.

He needed to make the Main Protagonist regain his strength even if little by little. A complicated and uncertain future awaits.

Arcturus needs to prepare the Main Protagonist to regain his main power.

Alda looked at Arcturus elaborately, “I've been curious since. Is this your hobby? Use a wheelchair instead of your feet.”

Arcturus is currently sitting in a wheelchair, moving to use it rather than using his legs.

“What is this weird?” arcturus asked with a gentle smile.

“It is an insult to people who can't walk when you use it.”

Arcturus could use both feet well but he chose to use a wheelchair.

Not because he has a strange hobby but because Arcturus is currently unable to walk.

Mary had been told of the reason but Arcturus had forgotten to tell Alda and Shin.

‘Alda may not be a problem but it is troublesome to tell Shin. He always had a weird obsession about me.’

Even in his novels, the scum Arcturus always believed Shin could be a great person even though in the original story he would be a miserable slave.

“Yeah, it can be said this is a consequence of my strength.”

“Consequences?” Alda tilted his head.

Arcturus. Paying from him borrowing the power of the Assassin, Arcturus would borrow his limbs for a period of time.

True, what Arcturus lent was his leg for the next two weeks.

It's not that his legs were removed or anything like that, just artificially. Arcturus will lose the function of his footwork during these two weeks.

‘This is quite risky because the killer borrowed whatever he wanted. I can't rely too much on him.’

It would be risky if the killer borrowed everything else. Arcturus could not determine if it was just a part of the body that could be borrowed.
