Keeeek! Kyak! Kyak!
After the holy power of the Crawling Chaos disappeared from the clan house, it left behind strange monsters. Without its connection to the Crawling Chaos, the holy power took on independent identities and began to form different vestiges that were too bizarre to have evolved naturally. They were so tough that even Hell Tribulation and Holy Fire didn’t burn them.
However, Yeon-woo hesitated to increase the intensity of his fire power for fear that the clan house might be blown away.
“How troublesome.” Brahm clucked his tongue and cast his magic, aware of the problem. There were several explosions and a large magic square appeared. Holy power was a god’s strength, and he was using magic to return the clan house to its original condition.
Whoosh! As rays of light appeared, the holy power began to weaken. Galliard, who was standing quietly in the back, released an arrow, which split into multiple pieces that descended on the monsters’ heads, making them explode like fireworks.
[Hades’ Spirit Eating Sword is absorbing the Crawling Chaos’ holy power!]
[‘Hades’ Spirit Eating Sword’ skill proficiency has slightly increased. 3.2%]
[‘Atmam System’ is assessing the absorbed holy power.]
[Refinement Process: 32.1%]
[The Stone of Sin (Superbia·Gula) has reacted and is speeding up the process.]
[Final Refinement: 42.9%]
[The refined holy power has been bound to your magic power storage (Dragon Heart).]
Yeon-woo weakened the monsters with Hell Tribulation, Brahm took them apart with his magic, and Galliard and Edora took care of what was left. They repeated this process multiple times, and after a while, they finally got rid of all the holy power in the clan house as Hades’ Spirit Eating Sword greedily ate its ashes.
[You have made a small achievement.]
[You have acquired 50,000 karma.]
The clan house was exactly as Yeon-woo had seen it in the diary.
“It’s been a while.” Brahm quietly muttered to himself with a nostalgic expression. As Jeong-woo’s alchemy teacher, he had had a close relationship with Arthia, and so this place held special memories for him as well. Because he regretted not being at Jeong-woo’s side since he was busy caring for Sesha, his walk down memory lane was especially poignant.
Galliard, who’d believed he would stay in the Tutorial forever, was also emotional as he remembered the child who had followed him around everywhere calling him “Teacher”.
Edora was awed at the sight of the famed Arthia headquarters, but she also glanced at Yeon-woo with concern.
Yeon-woo stared at the clan house. “Let’s move.”
Brahm looked at Yeon-woo and took Galliard and Edora somewhere else to give Yeon-woo privacy.

The clan house was made up of a long building connected to three smaller ones which made it look like an “E”. There were separate rooms and training areas that were located far from the main building.
Yeon-woo slowly looked around each of the buildings. Although a long time had passed, the cleaning magic kept the clan house neat, as though people were still living in it. It made Yeon-woo imagine countless scenes.
“Hahaha! Why do you look like that?!”
“Haaa. That idiot has caused trouble again.”
“Haha! Yes! That’s our commander for you! Right?”
