Chapter 878 - 878 Sara Reached Master Level
878 Sara Reached Master Level
“Wow, you’re so busy today,” I said.
I have continued my journey and yesterday, I reached Bernard’s mansion.
And today, he’s stuck in his office with a lot of paperwork to do.
“Yes. Do you know that we are already preparing for the next tournament already? And I want to suggest that the tournament to be played here in this city. So I want to fix everything, prepare a big stage for the participants to perform, and many other things. Since there are no other city prepared to host the tournament, I expected my chance to be high. So I want to prepare for the best,” Bernard said.
The tournament will start soon? Well, the kings are meeting at least every months. So maybe during that time, they spoke about the tournament. And I skipped it because it’s not related to the cult.
If the tournament happened, with how many people has become stronger now, I guess everyone can expect something great. And there will be more participants as well since there are more countries that will participate.
Well, I don’t know who will participate in the tournament from my group, but I will wish them the best.
As for me, I have no interest at all with the tournament. Even if the reward for the first place is huge, I don’t think there will be anything that will interest me. Other than the cult’s destruction obviously.
“Why here? Why not in the capital?” I asked Bernard.
.....
“When the cult almost conquer Arturo and had my father replaced by an impostor, this city was not influenced by the cult at all. And the people have learned of that fact. Even the citizens here took pride in that. So if we hosted the tournament here instead of the capital, the people of Arturo will know that there won’t be any influence from the cult at all,” Bernard said.

Hmm... maybe he’s right. But does that matter?
Well, maybe it does matter. Especially to those who were victims of the cult. They might despise the cult as much as I do. So if the tournament is hosted here instead of the capital which has been controlled by the cult once in the past, the people will be happy.
Though the happiest one would be hunters and other mages. Because it seems that they all have the chance to participate in the tournament.
“So, how will the selection for the participants be conducted? If there are hunters, then they might not have any permanent residence. Which country will they fight for?” I asked.
“With more countries participating, there will be more chances for them to be included. They will belong to the country where they entered the selection from. I think we will have a small tournament like back then to decide who will participate. Like the one where colleges from all over Tatrama fight first. There’s a possibility that they will go all over the continent and participate in the selection many times until they could participate. But that won’t be a problem,” Bernard said.
So, when a hunter like a member of Gladius party wants to participate in the tournament, but they failed to enter because they didn’t pass the selection in Arturo, they can go to Tatrama and try it again. That’s basically what Bernard said.
With more participants, there will be more fights. That will make everyone happy to have something to watch.
“When do you think that the tournament will happen?” I asked.
“If there’s no movement from the cult, then it could happen probably within the next year. But if you find any traces of the cult, it might be delayed,” Bernard said.
Back then, it was delayed many times as well. I guess they all love delay.
In many cities now, there are small scale tournament already. Set by the noble in charge of the city usually. Those who won a lot might enter the selection.
But there will be a lot competitors. Like from the army. People who have trained more than hunters especially because of the war. So they have bigger chance to win.
But if Angela is there, then the winner is obvious.
Maybe the tournament is started again because the kings wanted to introduce everyone who has reached master level to the people. Making the cult more afraid of us since we have more master level mages now.
That could be good as well. But I’m not involved at all with the next tournament other than to transport some people probably.
“Well, since you are busy, I will continue my journey. No need to see me off,” I said to Bernard as I jumped out of the window of his office.
“It would be best if you stop jumping out of the window like it’s normal thing to do. I don’t want kids to try and copy you,” Bernard said.
It won’t be a problem if there are no one watching.
There’s no need for me to stay here for a long time since I’m sure Bernard has taken precaution in case there are cult members here. Maybe he has gotten rid of the bad clan here as well.
Whatever. My goal is still to go to the peak of the continent. Though I have gone to a place higher than any peak. To the outer space.
Well, I don’t need to go there anymore since we have Airy now. Improving my level with her around is much faster than going to the space. And it’s kind of scary going there floating around without direction.
Just like usual, I stopped at the cities on the way and see if there are any clans that I need to watch out for. Though I don’t think that there are any.
And going to every city and finish some requests as soon as possible will just be suspicious. So I just try to find out about any clans without having to enter the guild.
Seems like a clan that has bad reputation is actually rare. It’s just that I met them twice in the last few days since I started my journey, so I thought that they are common.
Though when there are more than one clan in one city, both clans usually hostile to each other. But they mostly compete in completing quests rather than fighting among each other. And the citizens put their trust on at least one of the clans. So when two citizens who supported different clans met, it’s usually them who caused trouble instead of the clans.
It was quite funny to see. Though it’s good that at least none of them are strong enough to cause big trouble. It’s just a bar fight at most.
As for the two rival clans, when they met, they would ignore each other unless there’s something to talk about. Like if there’s a mission that both of them took at the same time.
Though when I watched them, they actually took care of the problem with the help of the guild master. So it’s nice to see that people actually get along with each other.
Finally, after a few days of travel from Bernard’s place, there’s no more city to visit before I can finally climb the mountain.
“...It’s so tall. Though if I run up there, I can get there in a few minutes,” I said.
“Then I’ll take a few seconds!” Breezy said. Trying to compete with me.
“With Ray, it will take even shorter time,” I said. Not wanting to lose.
“Or we can just go there after a few days. I got a message from Sara saying that she will attempt to reach master level in her air element soon. Let’s help her first before we climb up there. Once we’re done with it, we can climb the mountain with Airy,” Victoria said.
Why is she the one who received the message? I guess Sara knows that I would be too busy moving around so she contacted Victoria instead.
To think that she would reach master level in her air element so soon. If I didn’t go around with Airy all the time, and Airy stayed with Sara, then she would have reached master level even sooner.
No, I’m not jealous at all that she reached master level in her air element.
Well... maybe a little.
Fine, I’ll admit that I’m extremely jealous since I don’t think that I can reach that level anytime soon. But at least I’m already a master level in my summoning element.
Sara attempted to breakthrough in Monsters World. And since there’s no place where air mages can cultivate faster, like how wind mages can cultivate on Andro’s back, it took a lot longer for her to reach master level than the others. Though thanks to Airy’s help, it’s not that long either. Just a month.
And then, Sara can shoot to a distance of more than 10 km without her bullet slowed down at all. I’m so jealous.
But at least we got another master level mage. And Sara is now focused in her earth element. I think she will be the first to reach master level in two of her elements.
