Dark Eldar

The sacred "otherworld" is heavily guarded, its teleportation portals impassable! Security is extremely tight during the "High-Level Mage Examination"! The main purposes are: to prevent the "Creator" of another world from descending (the mirror world); and also, to guard against unqualified "outsiders." (No one has ever seen an "outsider," according to the "laws" revised by Archmage Assef. Ordinary people, even elders, have no right to contact them unless they receive a "special invitation," granting them "authorization.")

"Have they not come out yet?" Elder Schopenhauer asked the "Dharma Array Officer" with concern outside the teleportation portal.

"Yes. No students have managed to get out safely so far. The energy field of this barrier is exceptionally strong, Master Schopenhauer! If it remains open for an extended period, closing it will become extremely difficult." The magic array officer was a high-ranking mage whose passive and primary studies were both related to "barriers."

"Let's extend the time a little longer. I firmly believe that with my magic combined with yours, we should be able to shut it down. It's not a difficult task!" Elder Schopenhauer said this with a selfish motive. He hoped that his more talented young disciple, "Benjamin VI," could compete with his senior brothers!

Benjamin, a member of the 17th Rebel Legion in the Void Fortress, has amassed a considerable amount of gold (>3000G). He and Rona are using stealth assassinations and vine bows to deal high damage! Benjamin is even considering switching to the "archer" class...

Fortunately, Elder Schopenhauer was "magnanimous." When Benjamin received the message that "the advanced examination array is still active" (secretly sent by Schopenhauer), his thoughts were somewhat turbulent. He was still somewhat unwilling, after all, this was the "otherworldly education" model he had received for so many years. "If Benjamin really becomes a high-level mage, then he will be the youngest 'otherworldly' high-level mage in history?"

"Who wouldn't want that?" Benjamin muttered to himself. The 17th Legion's barracks remained dark and gloomy. Recently, a dozen or so more human "ancestors" had come to join them, drawn by the reputation of the 17th Legion. (They'd heard that the 17th Legion leveled up quickly and had a high drop rate.)

"What did you say? Ben? You mean your gold coins are gone?" Even in her sleep, the shrewd and perceptive Rona could hear the strange noise. Assassins are naturally "agile."

"Oh, no. I've stored the gold coins in the new warehouse you opened for me. I... I was thinking about the past," Benjamin said casually to the person in the upper bunk. He didn't want Lorna to know too much. Mainly, it was to protect her.

"If I hadn't gone to that other world, Elder Schopenhauer probably would never have forgiven me. He went to great lengths to teach me 'Arcane Light Wave'..." (Arcane Light Wave: Area of ​​Effect Damage)

Benjamin hesitated. The nearly month-long "trip" had made him "happy" and broadened his horizons considerably. He didn't want to be a selfish person who only cared about himself.

"Lorna, are you asleep?" Benjamin asked softly.

"It's so noisy, Ben. What's wrong with you now? Can't sleep? We're going to Crocodile Island tomorrow! Go to sleep! If you don't, I'll 'mute' you!" (Crocodile Island, a low-level area where elite "Iron Crocodiles" occasionally appear)

"What I meant was, I'd like to leave for a while. Take good care of yourself," Benjamin said in a whisper. But Lorna heard it all.

"Go on! Go on! You have to report to me even when you're just going to the bathroom! Ah~~~ I'm so sleepy! I'm going to sleep..." After saying that, Rona turned over and fell asleep.

Benjamin VI used "displacement" to simply "disappear" from the bed. He didn't want to disturb Lorna's rest, so he didn't even put on his boots.

After Benjamin left, Lorna stared blankly at Ben's boots in the lower bunk for a long time... She had a strong premonition—"Ben won't be coming back..."

Benjamin used the most powerful "displacement" spell in the "otherworld" to travel back to the "otherworld" in the shortest time (the teleportation speed was still not as fast as the Dark Messenger).

On the way, Benjamin's tears "fell" into the river of time... (This is a teleportation spell from another world, a form of time manipulation, [Secret Arts]; even Loki didn't master it, requiring a large amount of "mana" and "arcane essence" in conjunction...)
