The Devil Tears: Lord of the Night
Arc 1 Chapter 40: The Witch's level

Luciel and the others had exited the mining area and were waiting for a transport boat that would lead to the bridge. They rest on the riverbank and start chatting – talk.

“So, we will only get half paid after what we went through!?” Alan Protest.

“I think not, we bring some ears Lycanthrope and Talisman they can be sold 1 ral per Talisman,” said Serlina who showed a bag.

“So the possibility of money that each – we get about 8 ral for today,” explained Serlina.

A few moments later they saw a boat going by and boarded it. Luciel then chatted – talk with Serlina about Magic tower and witch.

“So the witch also has a level of –?” ask Luciel.

“Yes, there are 7 levels of a witch. I myself am at the 6th level, namely Pseduo Mage and can use some Basic magic of level 2.” Serlina replied.

Serlina then explained about the several levels of magicians to Luciel.

Grand Mage

Archmage (capable of mastering Extreme level 9 and 10 magic)

Senior Mage (capable of mastering level 7 and 8 Top magic)

2 hours later they had reached the Rhine bridge and went towards the Hunter Guild to report their Quest.

Somewhere on the border of the Kingdom of Bavaria and the Holy Isenburg Empire. Several knights were resting near a river.

“ Master, why don't you use a teleportation artifact alone and bother – bother having to travel so far?” ask a young knight.

“ Betrand, Teleportation artifacts are only used for the most emergencies only and will attract a lot of attention if I come to the Royal Palace in such a way,” Camillus replied.

“ Eyes – eyes Devil Cult is where – where you know and some days their movement indicates is doing a big operation,” he continued.

“ What was your experience when handling a Conjunction 30 years ago?” ask Betrand.

“Very messy,” replied Camillus.” Tens of thousands of people died, hundreds of thousands of people were homeless and even the descendants of one of the heroes became depleted in death while fighting one of the level 6 demons and the heirloom of his holy spear was lost somewhere,” explained Camillus.

The descendants of one of the exhausted heroes have become a considerable loss for mankind, plus the sacred weapons of his legacy are also lost into a catastrophe for mankind.

“ I've been messing with the devil for 47 years Betrand, and I know they're planning something this time.”

Saxon magic tower, Great hall.

“ Before you go up to become a level 4 magician which is a graduation requirement to become an official magician of the magic tower, you must do an internship task for 1 year,” said an Archmage. “ Be it a senior wizard assistant, or become a hunter and plunge into battle. Kaliah should practice your skills in real life,” he continued.

“ Hey Adel, you want to do an internship where?” ask a student to a student.

“My father will not allow me to go to the battlefield and being an assistant seems to be very boring,” replied the student.

“So you're going to be a hunter?”

“ Of course,” replied the student. “ With my status as a magic tower student, at least the Guild will give me at least Rank Cooper directly,” he explained.

“ How about you Max?” Ask the students.

“I would like to try to be an assistant to an Archmage if my experiment succeeds in attracting the attention of one of them,” replied the student.

They were both students and honorary students of the Saxon Magic Tower 3 years ago, which they entered when they were 10 years old. Because of their talent, the tower officials invited them to enter to become students and students in the magic tower.

They have been friends since childhood and have always studied magic together. But this time they will part to their respective paths – each for a while.

They were both also one of the young people who could potentially become an Archmage in the Kingdom of Bavaria.

“Alright, good luck with your path and remember our promise first okay,” said the student.

“Ummm, we will both become an Archmage and fight to become a Grand Magus Kingdom,” the student replied.

Liz POVs

“So that's how it is, you have a lot of interesting stories when you become a knight,” said Liz.

“Don't call me that, from now on call me Master,”.

“ Master Ready,” Liz replied excitedly.

Seeing the enthusiastic Liz, Rolf smiled melancholy. Liz who saw him was a little confused.

The day started at night, they had already spent quite a while resting waiting for Rolf to recover a little.

“ Alright, I think I'm a little better. We have to go back to the city I think,” said Rolf.

“Ahhh! No!” Liz then arrived – arrived standing screaming.

Seeing Liz whose attitude became strange, Rolf then asked.

“ What's wrong?”

*************

Inside the Hunter Guild.

Upon the return of Luciel and the others from the munichhea mines, they then ate – meals. While Luciel and Alan conduct a beer drinking contest racing who will last longer. After 10 glasses, Alan collapsed and started saying the word – strange words that made Serlina and Paul have to take him home.

Luciel at the time said he would be in the Guild for a while. But the night had come and Luciel still had not seen Liz.

“ Hey, We'll close. You've been here a few hours just sitting around you know,” said a Guild Master.

“ Are you sure all the Hunters doing the Extermination Quest have been completed?” Ask Luciel.

“ I've told you how many times, they've been sorted out from noon. Now go or do I have to kick you out now?” answer the Guild Master.

Luciel waited for Liz because they had promised to have dinner together when they had completed the Quest – each.

‘If Liz is in danger then surely she will activate her artifact’ thought Luciel. In fact he has questioned the mentors of Alan's team and they say Liz wants to practice first before going home.

‘Could he have forgotten?Could he think being with me was just wasting – of his time?Could he be spending time with another stronger man?’ Luciel's mind was falling apart.

‘I think too deeply about it I think’ Luciel thinks. (The fact is that Liz is just another guy. )

Luciel returned to his inn in a gloomy mood.
