Chun discovered a problem: "Was Fafnir's original plan to send you to pick me up?"
"Yeah!"
"But it was the Church that brought me back!"
"There's no way around that. The Church has the highest authority! Although it doesn't get involved in city administration, when it comes to extraordinary events like plagues, its functions overlap with the City Lord's, and it ranks above the City Lord. If the City Lord isn't proactive in epidemic prevention, they can be held accountable by the Church."
Ah, so the Church is like the boss over the City Lord! And then folks like Fafnir, the Flowers of the Five Cities, are sent to the Golden Empire for further training, serving essentially as the Empire's spies. Even the City Lord's family becomes the boss! Tough gig for the City Lord.
Maybe Fafnir is still aligned with her father and isn't keen on being a puppet of the Empire or a subordinate of the Church... I need to explore this further. Having missed out on the village belle as a wife, I need to give my all for the city belle wife.
Chun asked, "Sweetheart, can I check your attributes?"
"Go ahead!"
——Sherry: Level 15
Profession: Mage.
Position: Defunct Black Flag Commerce Association President Blizzard Ice Flower (All Attributes +105%)
Residence: Boarding at Fafnir's Magic Tower (All Attributes +5%, Wisdom +5, Spirit +5, Mana Value +100.)
Skills: Expert Meditation, Expert Frost Freeze Technique, Advanced Ice Arrow Technique, Advanced Frost Shield, Advanced Tailoring, Intermediate Spatial Magic, Basic Gardener, Basic Alchemy, Basic Module Combination, Magic Mining Technique.
Attack 25, Magic Attack 205, Defense 10, Spirit 10, Wisdom +7, Life Value 560, Mana Value 710, Carry Capacity 225, Physical Strength 350.
...
Finally a Mage, not the former apprentice Mage student, that's skipping two levels in one go!
But these attributes make Chun's scalp tingle!
These are results with the Black Flag Order and residence bonuses, without them it's a bit daring to look! Moreover, the skills are basically the same from ten days ago, fortunately, Meditation and Frost Freeze Technique became expert-levels. Spatial Magic was probably learned when she asked about the use of the Magic Stone, and Basic Alchemy shows she did care about curing the whale's barnacle, but now it's unnecessary... Wait a minute!
Chun was astonished: "Sweetheart, you comprehended Module Combination?"
Sherry was very proud: "That's exactly why Miss Fafnir appreciates me, and it's also why I comprehended Expert Meditation and Frost Freeze Technique in less than ten days."
Well, although I have Master-level 10 Module Combination, knowing various comprehensions involve this divine skill, I truly didn't know just how divine this skill is without comparing it with others.
Chun's confidence also rose: "Rest assured, the more we group these skills, the more powerful they become. If we keep cooperating, we will surely make even greater progress."
Decided, I'll take this opportunity to carry Sherry!
Just hoping that this deadly forest has some monsters to farm. Logically, this canyon is created by a meteor, and with scattered Magic Gold and Mithril being eaten by monsters, it should birth a few powerful bosses, right?
But now let's not waste travel time.
Chun took out a Magic Stone: "Sweetheart, this is the Magic Stone I mentioned that day, do you know how to use it?"
Sherry was surprised: "With this, things become much easier!"
While speaking, Sherry directly pulled out a Magic Book and started chattering excitedly: "These six Magic Stones have multiple combination methods. Arranged in a hexagon, they form a Space Transmission Array! In pentagonal arrangement with a Water Element Stone in the center, they form a Cold Ice Amplification Array. As long as I stand on the array, the power of my Cold Ice Magic becomes unimaginably powerful. By the same logic, place other Element Stones in the center to amplify them! Do you want to teleport directly to the forest or use the Cold Ice Array against the monsters there once we arrive? I suggest teleporting directly, this could level up my Spatial Magic to advanced, what's lacking now is real-world spatial operations!"
Holy shit, is it really that simple to use?
Chun was amazed: "But won't teleporting consume a lot of the Magic Stone's energy?"
Sherry immediately pulled out a bunch of stone images: "As long as it's not long-distance teleporting into alternate space, it doesn't consume much. And looking at the Magic Stone's quality, it's a top-tier good, low consumption and fast recovery, you can definitely teleport once!"
This is a boss's secret stone, picking this up is a fast track to Master, how is it just top-tier?
Chun asked again: "The stones can recover their energy?"
Sherry pulled out an array image: "Yes, these stones will automatically absorb elemental energy from the world even if they're just left there. To speed up absorption, you can set up a Charging Array!"
Chun let her be: "Then let's teleport, can we locate precisely?"
Sherry laughed: "Of course, this distance is too easy to locate!"
Then she put down Chun and began drawing circles and hexagons on the ground.
Chun suddenly felt an indescribable feeling, recalling that he used a stone to go to the first layer of Hell, and didn't say where he went when he returned, she didn't ask. This level of tacit understanding...
Well, even if she and Fafnir know I might have been to Hell, my small account becoming mutated, even I don't recognize myself...
In no time, Sherry completed the array, then began putting on the Crow Death God protective gear and placed the six stones on the array.
Chun wasn't idle either, he directly summoned his Angel Divine Pet and S-Class Cannibal Fish King Pet, just in case of an unexpected enemy encounter upon landing.
Sherry was not enticed by wealth, seeing Chun has such high-level divine pets didn't show a delayed careful gaze with a sweet tremor in demeanor: "Come, stand in the middle with me, hold tight!"
Uh... If it was holding tight before it would've been delightful, but now it feels like holding the Death God, can't look directly...
Then the Magic Stone on the array began lighting up one by one, just like the time Chun waited for teleportation.
Sherry continued explaining: "A newbie who doesn't know any Spatial Techniques waits a long time for the Magic Stone to activate, but now I'm at intermediate level so the activation time is shorter. Once I reach the expert level, the array activates at any time..."
As she spoke, the surrounding scene began to blur!
Sherry was so excited her voice trembled: "This is still my first time using teleportation magic! Like Miss Fafnir's level, she doesn't need Magic Stones and can directly teleport me everywhere in the city, which was why we teleported directly to the spot you opened the manhole cover in the sewer..."
Chun was truly impressed! Back then, it seemed natural for her, but now, it looks like even the President Sister can't teleport me back to the mansion but instead needs to use some Shrinking Earth Technique. So, Fafnir's level... might indeed be what Aileen called "a star creating a god."
In his mind... Chun felt he'd been daydreaming for a bit too long! Why is the scene still blurry and not teleported?
Sherry also sensed something was off: "Why haven't we teleported? Is it because I did it wrong for my first teleportation?"
Chun started to panic: "Can we escape now?"
Sherry anxiously replied: "No! The array has been activated, even if we step out, these six Magic Stones will teleport by themselves..."
Holy shit, indeed!
Finally, once the scene changed, Chun appeared in a place scattered with tree shadows, blurred and indistinct...
——System Prompt: Warning! You have entered an unknown space.
——System Prompt: Congratulations! The Spatial Magic of Sherry in your team has been upgraded to Advanced Level 10!
Sherry was stunned: "The coordinates are wrong, where is this place?"
Chun then came to his senses, realizing the meteor impact site would open into an alternate space, this teleportation took them into an alternate space!
