Chapter 502: Helim's Departure

The members of the Alchemist Guild, who presided over the ceremony, ushered in the most important moment, and everyone's face was full of nervousness. The middle-aged magician was still trying to think about how to save him from this embarrassing situation, and Anna was able to contain almost all the demons almost single-handedly, and was able to solve them in the end, which made him very uncomfortable.

Necromancy is banned everywhere except the territory of the Dark Elves, but it is clear that Komka is not bound by any faction. But even then, Anna struggled to convince them to use necromancy to banish Shilim. Alchemists were reluctant to come into contact with this sorcery because they believed it would bring disaster to them. But in order to expel Helim, who had been bothering the place for a long time, they finally agreed to Anna's plan.

When the demon spirit summoned by necromancy gradually turned into a black soul that was not aggressive, but wandered in place blankly, Anna knew that she was only one step away from success. The fog was clearly showing signs of dissipating, and small whispers and curses rang out in the fog, with the occasional black shadow flashing through the fog. In order to ensure her safety, Anna retreated into the range of the spider formation, and she was careful not to step on the lines drawn with chalk on the ground, because once she stepped on it, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Looks like you're done with your show, miss. The middle-aged magician's disdainful voice came.

Anna didn't want to pay attention to him, but in order to keep the others from seeing any clues, she responded kindly. "I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do, and in order for the eviction ceremony to go smoothly, I believe we all have the same purpose. ”

"Of course, you have made a very important contribution. The magician snorted, obviously haunted by the scene where Anna had just been in the limelight. Now Anna knew why the magician was so mediocre at this age, and jealousy had ruined him, like so many very arrogant knights, and every defeat always struck them in the heart.

"Well, can't you find a reliable magician here......" Anna whispered helplessly, turning her head.

The fog dispersed very slowly at first, then intensified without warning, and a demon-like silhouette of the fog gradually emerged. Anna narrowed her eyes slightly, staring at the shadow. The appearance of the fog demon Helim reminds Anna of the demon in the story Elias used to scare Schultz. Well, I don't know why, there was a feeling of nostalgia in her heart.

Now that she didn't need to do anything, Helim, who had lost a lot of strength, had no choice but to leave, waiting for a chance to regain his strength. What is certain, however, is that once the creature is expelled, it will never return to the place where it was expelled, and according to the book, it is because of the fear that Helim felt. In short, the fog will no longer envelop Komka.

Even creatures like Helim were terrified, and Anna couldn't help but find the world even more interesting. If it really is just a creature made up of remnants, then it shouldn't have the emotion of fear. But the emotions it manifests prove that it is not a creature without intelligence, without feelings, but simply made up of something that does not actually exist. "Leave, never come back. With Anna's last words, the last trace of fog also completely dissipated.

Marcos and Fett looked up from the room and looked at the starry sky. "It seems they succeeded. Marcos said softly.

"Did you ever think you'd see this in Komka?" said Fett.

"What do you mean?"

"Isn't that what you like? starry sky. Fett smiled.

"All I know is that I won't get the bounty this time. Marcos pretended to be distressed, but then he smiled shamelessly. "Of course, it's not bad to see such a beautiful scene, at least I didn't come here in vain. ”

"Do you still want to sleep now?" Fett pointed to the bed. "If you decide to set off tomorrow for Mount Afaria, you can stay up all night and then slip off the cliff and fall into a patty the next day. She was making a joke about Marcos's discomfort again.

"I have to say, you're really not kidding. Marcos said teasingly.

Fett shrugged, "Because that's the only way to make you less shameless, okay, I'm going to sleep." She turned and left the room, leaving Marcos alone in the room to look at the stars and mutter. "It's good once in a while. ”

The people living in Komka hadn't been in the sun for a long time, and it was clear that now that Helim had been expelled, they were in a happier mood than they had been in the previous month. It was a matter of course, and Marcos, who had gone out early the next morning, found that the tower in the northwest corner of Komka had rekindled a bonfire.

Marcos explained the general situation to the tower keeper, and of course he did not receive the 1,800 gold coins. This pleased the destitute fellow, for he could not find anything better to solve the problem without being paid. Even though he didn't drive Marcos away, at least making him a cup of tea was able to do it. He had every reason to do so, because now that the problem was settled, he had nothing to do with Marcos, and not everyone could hang around the tower.

Although it is a bit regrettable, as Fett said, the four are not short of money at the moment. Before leaving for Huttonmar, each guy had sorted out their savings for a long time, so they didn't have to worry about money, at least for the time being. And for now, the more important thing is to go to Mount Afaria and rendezvous with Boken. They had been delayed for more than half a week, so they could no longer stay in Komka.

Honestly, Komka is like a village that couldn't be more ordinary, and it certainly is for the four. Perhaps most of the people passing by will never get a chance to come here again, and there is nothing to be nostalgic for the four of them. Perhaps the only fragment of their memories that they could remember later was that they met a sentient creature here, and that creature survived by sucking on the remnants of a dead creature.

As the four of them left Komka and set out on the road to Mount Afaria, their thoughts were interrupted by a shout not far behind them. The four looked back, and they saw Anna, panting for breath and carrying a delicate backpack. Well, that's something that no one expected. "Hey, what are you going to warn us about this time? Don't rob us of your bounty, or is it something else?" said Marcos jokingly.

"You ...... Are you going to Mount Afaria too?" asked Anna.

"Yes. ”

"That's a coincidence, I'm going there too, so I guess you shouldn't mind if I walk with you. Anna laughed, now she didn't have the defensive look on her competitors at all. Fett thought, maybe outside of the commission, she was one such person.

Before Marcos could go any further and make some boring jokes, Fett spoke first. "Of course, we would love to. ”

"It's great, traveling alone can feel lonely at times, and it's good to have a team action once in a while. Anna didn't pay any attention to Marcos's surprised eyes, and joined the four of them on her own.

"Wow, you're magnanimous...... Marcos muttered.

"Don't complain, trust me, she's not a snarky person, you're going to be interested in her. Fett turned, left one last word, and walked forward.

Marcos stood where he was, smiling and muttering to himself. "It's a bit of a thing to look forward to. ”
