Extra Chapter – Even this chapter has been released out of the goodness of in my heart
So enjoy
A man was waving his pickaxe below land, a place where sunlight never s.h.i.+nes
His appearance was shabby
Age is considerably older his spine bent, and face covered in wrinkles
His gray robe was completely covered in dust, making him look even more shabby
The only light in this place was due to the lantern on his waist, which was barely illuminating his surroundings
His whole body is covered in sweat as he swings the pickaxe with almost no strength in his arms
The breathing was completely rough, indicating his exhaustion at the moment
Even though he looked like he could die at any given moment, a strong light was glinting inside him eyes
As if he was possessed by something, he desperately striked the pickaxe on the same spot again and again and again
And finally…..
The wall he was picking finally crumbles and revealed it
As the man looked at it, his eyes went wide
”Wa……..Hahahahaha……Ahahahahahah!”
His movements became even faster trying to break through completely
As the cracks increased, it eventually became large enough for a man to pa.s.s through it
Seeing his efforts paid off, the man threw the pickaxe away and danced while laughing
”Hahahahahah! I did it! I finally found it! This smell is proof that I found it!”
Then he searched for something through his clothes, and finally pulled out a necklace
It was the only adornment worn by the shabby beggar
A gla.s.s bottle was connected to the necklace
As he pressed him bottles into the hole made by him, the air swirled around it and slowly concentrated into the bottle
Along with it an amber liquid came into the bottle
”High concentration magic crystals that have never been seen before…….wonderful, I’ve did it!”
After the bottle filled up he placed it on the ground and began casting a spell
The spell casting lasted a whole hour before it was finished
As the spell was reaching its ending, the man's slow and weak voice grew cheerful and powerful
At the spells end the man was covered in a strong white light
”I can feel my power overflowing…..this is the power of a young body!”
As the light went out, a young man stood there
The old man whose face was covered with wrinkles and had a bent waist was no where to be found
In his place stood the young man with a neat and sharp featured face
His body overflowing with force, and skin smooth as silk
The only common feature between the two of them was the strong twinkling light in their eyes
”Ah, now one more….”
While saying that he let the bottle refill
Once it the part he used up was refilled, he wielded his arm and mana began overflowing through his fingertips
Then he began casting an even longer spell
The hollow cave which had no light started changing as the man wielded his fingers
The appearance slowly changed from the stagnant room and began turning into bricked walls
Placing his finger near his mouth, he bit on it and began writing a magic spell with his fingers on the newly made floor
As he wrote the smell began growing even more complicated
The spell was even longer than the one he used for rejuvenation
Sweat started dripping from his forehead, and his face distorted due to the pain
The air trembles and the flame inside the lantern was blown out
The s.p.a.ce which was calm until now, began sounding like a thunder rippling through the sky
In the darkness, a form slowly took place and started forming
The shadow even in the darkness could be seen having a clear outline
A voice like a bell sounded out as the form was materialized
”……..was it you who called me?”
What appeared was a fascinating beauty wrapped in minimal clothes
