"As an apprentice to Stanticom, you're quick to learn. Reda nodded in praise of the young man in front of her.

"Unbelievable, you said the Void was going to engulf our world, and the Entropy Demon......" Jude was momentarily dazed by so much unfamiliar information, "They sound so ...... Mysterious. How did you find out about this? The mages are as knowledgeable as you and Master Stansho?"

"Because we thirst for knowledge and want to see all the mysteries of the world. Jude, there is a famous adage you should have heard: 'Only the most intelligent and self-disciplined apprentice can become a true mage.' 'Persevere on the path of the Mage, and one day you will become knowledgeable. ”

The tavernkeeper was unusually easy-going, and his expression was unusually serious: "The important thing at the moment is that tomorrow evening there will be an Entropy Demon in this place, in the Ochedant realm, this is a serious problem that needs to be dealt with urgently. ”

"Will it destroy this town?Roy, will they be able to destroy the Entropy Demon successfully?" The boy couldn't imagine the form of the creatures bred by the Void, but it must be extremely dangerous to make Reda unusually so serious.

"It is almost impossible to destroy the Entropy Demon with the power of mortals alone. The tavernkeeper sighed, "I suspect I may have been calculated, those guys may have expected me to be here at this point." Alas, if I ever had the opportunity to run a tavern in the future, I would have to find a more peaceful and peaceful place. ”

Hearing Reda's words, Jude was incredulous, "What? You mean, you're going to help Roy and them destroy the Entropy Demon? The spirit administrators expected you to be here today more than a decade ago?"

"More than a dozen years is not a long time for us. Well, Jude, I really didn't tell you before, but those guys, those spiritual managers...... Let's just be colleagues. Ruida's face was full of helplessness, "and your teacher, Stanticom." This is the code of conduct, and it is our innate mission and vocation – we all have a responsibility to destroy the entropy demons of the present world. ”

-

Until the next afternoon, Jude was still thinking about the tavernkeeper's words, according to the other party, he and Mr. Stansho should be some kind of "manager", protecting certain aspects of the world from the entropy of the Void.

No wonder they are so knowledgeable, even in the realm of mages, I am afraid that they are probably the most outstanding top existences.

However, even a mage as powerful as Reda still had a heavy face when he talked about Entropy Demon, which was completely different from his usual calm and easy manner.

The Black Thorn Rose Tavern is closed for the day today, and has been closed since last night, and all the guests except the teenager have been temporarily evicted. After a little cleaning and tidying up in the morning, the tavern owner asked the bartender Lena to go home and rest, and then began to prepare for the battle.

The usual simple black robe has been replaced by a solemn and formal star-patterned silk robe, and Ruida also wears mysterious gray leather gloves, and out of nowhere conjures up a transparent and empty crystal staff, and there is a faint blue and light purple energy flowing back and forth inside.

The only two of them were left in the empty tavern hall, and Reda was putting some magic items on the counter for adjustment, while Jude was looking at him in silence.

What is it that bothers him?Jude reflects on introspection, who is he worried about?Is it Reda, Roy, Mejia, or the residents of Ochedant?

It's enough to give a legend like Roy a go, and a mage like Reda to fight hard, and this level of combat is probably hard to help himself, and his life is obviously in danger.

However, if Roy they fail...... Ochedant is afraid that he will be destroyed, so now should he leave the town quickly, take Mehya with him, and persuade all the people in the town to evacuate?

No, it's not. Regardless of whether the townsfolk might believe it, if Roy fails, the spirit administrators won't let Mexia go.

If Leia had been here, she would not have wanted to cause the inhabitants of Euchedant to suffer.

Shaking his head in denial, Jude asked, "Can I go with you?" ”

"Have you really thought it through?" the tavern keeper stopped his debugging work and looked at the boy with a complicated expression, "The Entropy Demon is a terrifying existence that you may not even imagine, and I can't guarantee your safety. ”

"You're Stanticom's apprentice, Jude," Reda stared into the boy's eyes, "I can't explain anything to him if anything goes wrong." From my personal point of view, I advise you to stay away from this danger. ”

"I'm also an adventurer, how can I be called an adventure without experiencing danger. Jude's face was calm, "It's my own decision, if I die tonight, the teacher shouldn't blame you." ”

As if seeing the determination in the young man's eyes, the tavern owner hesitated for a moment, and then sighed, "Okay, Jude, your choice." ”

Suddenly, Jude vaguely remembered that when Snowfall had a disagreement with Nosa, the bounty hunter seemed to respond in the same way.

"Then be well prepared and wait for sunset to act. With that, Reda proceeded to adjust the magic items on the counter.

"Where is the operation?"

"The estate of the Viscount of Lutsis. To be exact, deep underground on the estate. ”

-

Returning to his room, Jude retrieved his belongings and left Mr. Stanshu's magic notes and Linda's azure crystal in the room. These valuables will not be used in this battle and are at risk of being damaged.

As for the silver wolf badge that symbolized the Norberth family, after a little thought, the boy decided to carry it with him. After all, the location of this operation is the estate of the local lord, Viscount Lutisis, and this family crest may come in handy if it causes trouble.

Opening the wardrobe and looking at the precious star-patterned silk robe, Jude shook his head and closed the closet, standing in front of the dressing mirror to sort out his slightly messy hair.

Glancing at the hunting bow and quiver hanging on the wall, Jude took out the black sword and tried it for a moment, then opened the Eternal Traveler's pocket watch: 1:51 p.m.

With a long time before the action begins, Jude decides to sit on his bed and meditate for a while in order to adjust to his best.

-

When the boy opened his eyes again, the townscape outside the window had been dyed golden by the setting sun.

Standing up and moving his body, Jude felt his concentration and mental coordination, skillfully tied the black sword behind him, and walked out of the guest room and downstairs.

In the hall, Ruida seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and when Jude appeared, who had finished preparation, he immediately made a gesture to leave.

"By the way, Jude, if you encounter danger, use your pocket watch immediately, and don't hesitate in the slightest. The tavern keeper stopped in front of the gate and suddenly said so.

"Entropy demons are affected by the standing of time?"

"No, but it will send a signal that you're in danger. Ruida's face was solemn, "The battle we will face later may take a completely different form than you think. ”
