The night sky took the place of the roof.

By the time Jason came to his senses, he was already standing in a cemetery.

The moonlight was bright overhead.

The soil underfoot is dark.

The wind, blowing gently.

Branch shaker.

Several crows were startled, quacking and chirping.

Jason frowned.

Without the slightest timidity towards the scene in front of him, he strode towards the depths of the cemetery, where his eyes could already see a stony, towering structure.

When he walked inside, Jason was stunned to find that the stone building had stairs on one side, and the other three sides were smooth and flat, and the cracks in the stone were covered with moss.

The steps were cleaned.

On either side of the first staircase are two sculptures, one on the left and one on the right.

The sculptures are all in the shape of birds, more than a meter high.

However, a whole is cylindrical.

The other is square.

"It's ......"

"Altar?!"

Jason looked around again, guessing uncertainly.

For he had never seen an altar built in a cemetery, let alone such a tower-like one.

So, in the following time, Jason became more and more careful.

After inspecting the sculptures and steps one by one, Jason stepped forward.

All the way to the top of the altar, nothing happened.

And then......

Jason's attention was drawn to a verdant fruit.

The verdant fruit is placed on a stone plate.

Stone plates are placed on a stone table.

The table was large enough to occupy almost the top of the altar.

But the fruit was not big, only the size of a date.

Jason looked around and made sure there was no danger, then bent down and took the fruit in his hand, and then threw it in his mouth.

Click!

Crisp!

Sweet!

Juice is abundant.

Unconsciously Jason squinted.

The next moment, his figure disappeared.

At the moment when Jason's figure disappeared, under the steps of the altar, the sculptures on the left and right sides let out a long breath at the same time.

"It's horrible!"

"I was almost eaten!"

The two sculptures said at the same time.

A look like the rest of his life after the catastrophe.

But they are just a little true spirit, and they are no longer real beings.

They can't escape Jason's stomach after all.

The next moment-

A huge mouth appeared in the dark night sky.

This mouth is like a black hole.

The whole cemetery was sucked up.

After chewing a few times, I swallowed it completely.

[Devour a very small amount of 'Raven Blood' essence!] 】

[Maximum recovery of physical strength and energy (injury)!] 】

【Satiety +9】

[Satiety: 25]

……

[Take the potion, perform a special learning ritual, and judge the ......]

[Judgment passed!] 】

[Master 'Blair's Expulsion Technique' (Basic)!] 】

[Judged to have mastered a more advanced secret technique similar to 'Protecting Against Evil'!] 】

['Blair's Expulsion Technique' is being fused!] 】

The text in front of him paused for a second.

Then, more words began to emerge.

[Evil Protection (Mastery): Not only have you become proficient in this spell seal secret art, but you have also enhanced it with special powers, and you have strengthened it with similar powers! At night in the city, it's more than enough to ward off most malice, but you'll still need a lot of stamina to activate this spell seal mystic! In the Night's Watch lineage, a Night's Watch has changed it slightly, so you have mastered this long-range attack technique as well; In the same way, the changes you make to it can be added to the lineage; Effects: 1, a special force field attached to the surface of the body, which can not only defend against the attacks of negative energy creatures (above the explosive level), but also be able to repel them and the power attached to them (above the explosive level); 2. You can use the power to expel evil and aim at creatures or objects within a radius of 8 meters with you as the center of the circle to carry out a long-range attack. 】

……

[Defend against Evil to Mastery Level, gain Intrinsic Mastery Option: Curse Seal Replica]

[Spell Seal Replica: You can store it once in advance to protect against evil, it has the same consumption as normal protection against evil, but because of your improvement, it becomes able to exist for 4 days, within 4 days, the power to protect against evil will gradually weaken, and at the end of the 4th day, the power of the curse mark to protect against evil will disappear completely; It can be replenished at any time within 4 days to protect against evil; Only a short diagram complex syllable (Yi) is required for release]

……

"Increased the power of [Protecting Evil] by a small level, from the explosive level to the explosive level!"

"The long-range attack has also been changed from 6 meters to 8 meters!"

"The [Spell Seal Replica] time has also been increased by one day!"

Jason watched with delight.

Although it is far from the original goal.

But Jason was happy to see the enhancement of [protection against evil].

However, with enhancement comes greater effort.

Originally, the next level of expert, [Defend Against Evil] required 25 points of satiety and 4 points of excitement of eating.

At the moment, it has become 30 o'clock satiety and 5 o'clock food excitement.

The sheer amount of satiety and excitement of eating made Jason frown.

But the next moment, Jason adjusted his mentality.

"Slowly."

"I'll be able to save up someday."

Jason thought and turned to look at Little Lead.

The valet stood there while Jason was taking the potion, silently guarding him.

At this moment, looking at Jason, who turned his head, the personal valet said directly:

"Congratulations, sir."

The words are firm, and the tone is unquestionable.

Little Lead, who had been watching from the sidelines, clearly felt the changes in Jason.

He also studied the 'Blair Expulsion Technique', but he knew what such a change meant.

Succeed!

And it's an extraordinary success!

Master Gerald once said that Lord Jason's aura matched the 'Blair Expulsion Technique' very well.

But......

He never imagined that such a match would reach the peak as soon as he learned it.

"Worthy of Mistress Gerald's cousin."

"Gifted ......"

"It's really terrifying."

Little Lead, who obviously misunderstood something, thought silently in his heart.

However, this valet does not forget business.

"Old General Anno has arrived."

"Takeover of the defense of 'Swallow Castle'."

"You need to meet the old general."

"Remember to be kind."

Little Reed whispered to Jason.

Jason nodded in understanding.

After all, this old general Anno is not only the old man of the harbor, but also 'his' swordsmanship instructor.

Brave character, but irritable.

Jason recalled the information in his head.

Then, following Little Lead, he walked out.

"Gerald!"

In the loud voice, a tall, white-haired figure walked directly over.

The old man's eyes were bright, and the corners of his mouth were upturned, with a deep sense of joy.

After Little Leader stepped away, he stepped forward to Jason with a bear hug.

"Well done."

The old general said so loudly.

then

The voice became low, to the extent that only the two of them could hear it—

"Gerard will be proud of you!"
