Herag shook his head: "There are still a lot of things to be busy in the future, I'm afraid I don't have much time." ”

Reese's face softened a little as she listened, and she hugged Herag's arm tightly, squeezing it.

She looked at Irina's, then at herself, and felt like she was being compared, and her hand became even harder.

Irina glanced at Herag and smiled, "Okay, I see." Your wife is embarrassed to say here, I understand, wait for the next whisper, I'll wait for you. ”

Irina smiled and left, swaying.

"There's no way I'm going to contact her, don't worry." Herag hurriedly said.

Rees said, "It's okay brother, I can understand if you contact her." ”

Herag could only smile wryly, Rees was completely acceptable to both Shatia and Asuna, but hostile to Irina.

Herag couldn't figure out why, he didn't quite understand a woman's mind.

The dinner soon began, and Herag took center stage as the protagonist of the dinner, welcoming everyone's attention.

What followed was the tedious social process, where Herag smiled and greeted, communicated, and befriended people from all sides, and Ruepstone had a bunch of friends.

For these people, Herag was a potential wizard who had officially entered their field of vision.

Herag felt his face stiffen with a smile, and for the first time he felt that socializing was such a tiring thing, even more tiring than refining potions.

He knows very well in his heart that although he looks beautiful now, he has been watched by the bigwigs from all sides, and it seems that he has a bright future.

But these are all false, and you can't be complacent because of them.

All fame, fortune, status, and relationships come from strength.

Only if you have enough strength can you afford these things.

The strength has increased, and things like fame and fortune are just incidental, and they will follow.

The dinner lasted for a long time, and it was not until three or four o'clock in the morning that it slowly dispersed.

Similar to other banquets and balls, Herag's dinner party also became an opportunity for people from all sides to move around each other.

Naturally, these people did not come only for Helag, many of them had interests with each other, and they just took this opportunity to get together.

Herag looked at a golden badge in his hand, which was the Medal of Honor of the First Degree.

In addition to representing honor, the medal itself is a second-level witch weapon, with a one-time effect that blocks lethal attacks.

Since he used it for the dead straw man, Herag has not had a witchcraft with a similar effect, and now he has made up for it.

In addition to this, the contribution has also been added, and Herag looked at the balance of the contribution of the runestone.

"Historical Contribution: 11870."

"Remaining Contribution: 11600."

At present, there are more than 11,000 available contributions, and Herag plans to wait until he is about to be promoted to a second-level wizard before exchanging the key to the rules.

Now that I have the Medal of Honor of the First Class, there is almost no difficulty in applying for the key to the rules, and I will definitely be able to approve it.

Even if he couldn't approve it, Herag only needed to choose a space-type second-level spell.

In fact, he doesn't need the key of the rules so much now, he can already use the rules of space, and then he understands the rules of space, so he naturally doesn't need the assistance of external forces.

When Herag returned home, he once again entered a monotonous and boring meditative life, growing his mental strength.

During this time, thanks to Rees, she was able to bring him some fun in life, try a lot of clothes and new knowledge.

Two months later, a star had completely solidified in Herag's mind, the thirty-first star.

A few months ago, when I was on the airship, I successfully condensed one, and after a few months, I succeeded in condensing another star.

"Herag Merlin: Strength 51.2, Dexterity 50.3, Constitution 53.1, Spirit 82.7, Mana 100%."

Herag glanced at the data panel, and the physical attribute improvement was not much, and most of the improvement was due to absorbing a lot of demonic aura when he was in the demon plane.

The mental power has increased a few points, at least now the speed is getting slower and slower.

Herag could clearly feel that even with the help of the energy of the God's Core, the progress of meditation was still relatively slow.

He knew that he was approaching a bottleneck, and there was no other way but to continue meditating and get close to that limit as soon as possible.

……

Two years later.

"Herag Merlin: Strength 55.1, Agility 54.2, Constitution 57.4, Spirit 87.5, Mana 100%."

The number of stars in his mind had reached thirty-five, and Herag had successfully condensed four stars again in two years.

He felt that his current speed was like a turtle crawling, and if it weren't for the assistance of the god's core energy, he would definitely not be able to improve it a long time ago.

The question now is whether to continue meditating on ascension or to directly try to advance to a second-level wizard.

Herag thought for a moment and was ready to continue grinding, he had the energy of the god core to completely raise his spiritual power to the limit.

He is only twenty-seven years old now, and there is still time to improve.

Once he had made up his mind, he continued to meditate and practice asceticism.

Three years later.

Herag stopped meditating and prepared to be promoted to a second-level wizard.

The reason why he stopped was not because he couldn't continue to improve, although the speed was very slow now, he could still continue to improve with the energy of the god core.

Herag stopped because of the news that Master Parker had returned.

Parker's return should have been good news, with a third-level wizard sitting in Silvermoon City, and the security performance has improved a lot.

But along with this news, there is also the gossip that Parker was seriously injured in the elven plane and was forced to return to recuperate.

Although this news has not been confirmed, it is very true from various indications.

Parker hadn't been seen since he returned, stayed in the Floating City, and hadn't seen anyone.

On the contrary, during this time, a number of famous potions masters came to visit Parker.

The signs made Gerag realize that something might really be wrong with Parker.

He immediately had a sense of crisis, and if something went wrong with Parker, he was in danger.

Herag had been in Silvermoon City for several years, and the Taylor family and Fran had no choice but to do anything to him, without any chance.

Herag was at home, the witch array was activated, and no one could do anything about him.

But now the situation is different, and Herag believes that the worst-case scenario must be prepared.

He immediately decided to start promoting to a second-level wizard.

"Herag Merlin: Strength 57.2, Dexterity 56.1, Constitution 58.9, Spirit 90.0, Mana 100%."

Herag glanced at the data panel, and now he had successfully meditated for a total of thirty-seven stars, and his spiritual power had reached ninety points.

The spiritual power crystals in his mind were larger than they had been at the beginning.

Although Herag didn't know how big other people's spiritual power crystals were, most of them weren't as big as him.
