Rann understood why he couldn't use these magical things. Because, according to Kassandra, he was not 'approved by the gods'.

That is, is there really a god in this world? They made artifacts and shards, and then they chose users for them?

That's what Kassandra meant, but Rann always felt something wasn't right.

"Come, come on."

After saying hello, Rann took out the longbow he had taken from Anyu's corpse and tossed it to Kassandra.

The falconer picked up the longbow smoothly in mid-air. Sure enough, after this ordinary weapon in Lanen's hand reached Kassandra's hand, the green lines engraved on the bow began to glow slightly, and it was obviously in a state of operation.

Kassandra pulled the bowstring handily as she looked at the breezy witcher in amazement.

"Where did you get this bow from?"

This bow is not heavy, but it will stand out if you want to carry it. Kassandra was sure that she had never seen anything like this in Len in all the time she had seen him.

In the face of Kassandra's question, Rann just spread his hands. Kassandra smiled and asked no more.

She pulled an arrow from her quiver and placed it on the bowstring, slowly filling it up.

The sun from the sea shone on her skin, and her muscles rolled and bulged under her skin with a powerful bow draw.

Fit, and as if with a sculptural art-like divinity.

And at the moment when the bowstring was full, green smoke suddenly appeared on the arrows of the arrows.

It's the same as what Anyu used at the time.

Under Lan's observation, the small, highly technical green crystals were formed out of thin air on the cluster of arrows and attached.

It seems that Anyu's poison blast arrows, as well as her green crystals, were obtained from this bow.

This is not only a ranged weapon, but also a green crystal generator.

"It's amazing."

Lan looked at the bow and sighed quietly.

"But where did the artifact fragments come from, Kassandra?"

"What?"

"I mean, these magical weapons and armor are the result of the application of artifact fragments or artifacts by highly skilled blacksmiths, right? So where did the artifact fragments come from? It's like making a bow, the raw wood grows out of the ground, they have to have a source, right? ”

Kassandra rightly said, "Of course the gods made it." ”

"So how did they get into the hands of humans? The temple priest is responsible for receiving? ”

Kassandra waved her hand in a big smile.

"Please, even the most famous sacrifice in the Greek world will not be able to see the gods many times in a lifetime. These fragments were excavated by humans, or inherited from the hero's ancestors. ”

By digging?

This statement was obviously beyond Lanne's expectations, so much so that he was a little dumbfounded.

In this case, the human beings of this world are more like discoverers, reusers, and inventors of these powers.

"But. There is always a day when digging out ruins, right? And artifacts will lose power after fighting each other. If this continues, won't the artifact become less and less with the times, and finally disappear completely? ”

Kassandra apparently hadn't thought about artifacts in that direction.

After all, in her previous life, she was just a mercenary who was good at fighting and was willing to fight.

In her opinion, this kind of question seemed to be something that the wise men, priests, and consuls in the city-state should consider.

"Should. No way? ”

Kassandra herself was unsure.

"There have always been a lot of fragments, and there aren't many people who can use artifacts."

"Maybe." Lan En shrugged. "After all, I'm just an outsider who doesn't know much. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe it's a long way off. ”

——

The group sailed around Kefalonia to the port of Sámi, where they stayed for several days. The Barnabas crew procured rations and supplies to prepare for the journey ahead, and from time to time people on board were running back and forth on the gangplanks with bulging sacks.

Lan En propped up the side of the ship and looked at the small island in the Aegean Sea.

White sand beaches shaped by the sun, waves and wind, as well as the iconic white rocks of the Aegean Sea, can be found everywhere. So much so that even the ground is white.

And those flowers and plants make their colors more prominent because of the white ground. The water is also clearer and more turquoise because of the white coastline.

In Lan's opinion, the color saturation of the picture in front of him is very comfortable.

Like him, Kassandra rested one elbow on the side of the boat, surrounded by the sounds of people talking on the docks, the screams of seagulls, and the clinking of glasses from the nearby tavern, but her thoughts were already drifting to the surface.

And suddenly, there was the sound of brisk footsteps on the deck behind the two of them, and the planks rattled with the footsteps. "I'm ready," Fauberder said breathlessly, "I've packed everything." ”

Kassandra sighed, and Rann glanced at her. It seemed that she was depressed because she had anticipated this situation.

"I'm not going to take you with me, Fauber."

Kassandra crouched down and let herself look at the girl in front of her.

"Where I'm going, what's going to do, I can't take you with me."

"Really?"

Fauber lowered his head, and there was not only loss in his voice, but also fear for the future. She and Kassandra were about to be separated, something she had never thought about the future.

Then Kassandra felt something press against her, it was Fauber's toy wood eagle.

"Then you take Challa away," said Fauber, "so that wherever you go, Challa will be with you as if I were with you." ”

"Luckily, Lan En can be with you." Fauber glanced up at the young man. "He is the first thing I have ever seen, my patron saint, and I will give him to you now."

"Hey, don't say I'm like something, okay?"

Lan En tilted his head to look down at the little girl, muttering discontentedly.

"Still. Looks like you want to go to sea too? ”

Fauber looked up in surprise suddenly, and she seemed to hear some signs of surprise in Lan's tone.

"Of course! Of course! ”

She was cared for by Kassandra since she was a child, and naturally targeted Kassandra. Kephallonia was too young to let go of them.

Eager to take risks, to make life wonderful, Kassandra took care of Fauber as if she were herself.

"It's not that I can't follow, I can take care of her for a while. She didn't look like someone who had been quiet since we left. ”

Ryan nodded towards Kassandra.

"After dealing with the Elpino matter, I guess I'll get off the boat and find an interesting place to visit, Athens is good, I'm interested. Fauber can be my guide, isn't she from Athens? And you can go to Athens to find her then. ”

The little girl happily waved her fist and let out a 'woohoo! 'The sound of celebration.

Kassandra seemed to be much more relaxed, smiling at Lan and nodding at him.

Then, a man dressed in a natural curly hair and a little rich also walked over.

He spoke with a comical accent and asked Kassandra for a farewell hug in a pompous tone and movements.

Looks like this is that Marcos.

"Please! Give me a hug before leaving! ”

He opened his arms wide to Kassandra.

The falconer smiled helplessly: "Okay, come here." ”

The two hugged each other.

After Kassandra had settled the only two people she cared about on the island, the Adrestia untied the ropes and sailed into the turquoise Aegean Sea.
