"But did he manage to get our revenge on that sect?" Nina asked as she let go of Killian's hand, clenching her fists and wishing the worst for Nixlas' Shadows.",

"Yes, Vicente wiped out that sect," Rory said. "Didn't you know? We sent some beasts from that sect to help the Seidel Kingdom. Didn't they come here?"

"Beasts? From the Dark Path?" Eve asked, frowning. "We have heard of a few incidents of Dark Path beasts acting strangely in the last five months or so, resulting in human victories or even people claiming to have been rescued by beasts. But we have approached none of them out of fear."

"As expected... Vicente imagined this could happen." Rory sighed before continuing to answer Nina's question. "Anyway, that sect no longer exists. Apart from Lauren, the only ones left are the beasts we sent to the kingdom."

"And how is big sister Lauren? What level is she at?" Nina asked curiously, even more relieved to know that her family's enemies were all dead.

"She's a Low-level Paragon now. Her power is the Book of Death. You may have heard of her. She's also known by the nickname Miss Death." Rory said.

"Oh?" Nina's eyes widened as she remembered the news about this magician she had read about several times in her childhood.

"She's fine as far as that goes. Vicente has been taking care of her, so we have to be hopeful and patient. Just be ready to see her again, Nina. They'll be here with you in a few weeks."

"I will be. Don't worry, I know what I have to do." Nina said confidently as they walked out of the college.

"Besides, I have some excellent resources to pass on to the family. Our group collected a lot of stuff while traveling around the continent, so it's time for the family alchemists to get to work." Rory said to Eve and Nina as he handed a spatial ring to the blonde woman next to him.

Sensing what was inside it, Eve stopped and opened her mouth in shock. "All this?"

"The North is dangerous, but because of that, it has many opportunities. This ring contains the organs of more than a dozen superior vampires. Unfortunately, we couldn't preserve their blood, otherwise we could have guaranteed important and rapid progress for the family members.

In any case, we have enough for everyone in the family to benefit. Take advantage of these resources, Vicente will bring more in the future, so we don't have to skimp." Rory delivered the good news and went over what he had been told to do when he met Eve.

"There are so many things here... How many monsters have you fought?" Nina asked after checking the ring.

"A few tens of thousands. We've also killed a lot of monsters in the cities we've passed through. There are also a lot of artifacts and financial resources that we have collected from order posts and abandoned cities.

Sigh! The crisis is a sea of opportunity." Rory replied with a complicated look, a mixture of satisfaction and regret.

There was enough in that 5th grade spatial ring to enrich a state!

But it had only come into his family's possession because of the drastic situation the Polaris Realm was currently in!

The three walking beside him clearly understood where these riches came from, and they remained silent as they walked through the city.

"What was the capital like before you left? I haven't heard from my family in weeks." Killian looked at Rory expectantly.

"They're fine. We avoided the worst, and now I imagine Vicente has retaken a lot of territory around Grandis. He'll soon have to retake the railroad lines in Diamond Province before he gets here."

"What are your plans now?" Nina asked the red-haired man beside her.

"The Metal City seems safe. I'll leave Onyx here to protect it, and I'll head to Martell Village to defend the territory we still own." He said as he thought of his mother, whose aura he had already felt in this city and whom he wanted to talk to later.

"I see... I was thinking of hunting my next pentagram now that I've moved on, but I think I'll wait for my brother to return. Or do you think it would be better if I surprised him now with my three pentagrams?"

"Wait for him. It'll be better that way." Rory smiled at her as he walked on alongside Nina, Killian, and Eve.

They would make their way to the army post to talk to Nova, but when they got there, they would discover that she was leading a group of soldiers out of the city.

As good as the local defenses were, the army and the Fuller family had to constantly eliminate creatures that got too close to the city.

With that, Rory would finish talking to Nina and Eve about his plans and what should happen in the meantime while Vicente was away, before he left to be reunited with his mother.

Heidi was doing very well in the Metal City, having used the opportunities she had as Rory's mother to become a Low-

level Mage.

No longer exploiting the sex trade, she was now an important political member of the Metal City government.

As an ex-prostitute and ex-pimp, Heidi knew how to deal with nobles, rulers, and ordinary people, and had earned herself a prestigious place in the city.

When she saw her only son again, the woman was naturally thrilled and relieved, and then devoted the rest of the day to listening to the young redhead's stories.

That was the rest of Rory's day in Metal City until he rested and left early the next day with Bart and Casey for Millfall and Martell Village.

Using the local trains, they would arrive at their new guard posts in just a few hours!

...

Meanwhile, Vicente had finished developing the artifacts for the men in the capital to use in defending the territory already reclaimed by young Fuller's actions.

With that done, and his Awakening Altar helping people awaken their powers for the third day in a row, it was time for Vicente to get on with repairing the railway line in the province before leaving for Nina!
