Chapter 394 The Heart

Just as the situation became tense, "I apologize for the sudden commotion. As you heard from Lady Jayna, my name is Lily. I am the representative of the Heart Kingdom\'s research center. I was on task in bringing some material for Master Angus." said Lily with an expressionless face.

Hearing this, all the nearby knights looked at each other before withdrawing their weapons.

"I see.. Then, can you please tell us what\'s happening in this place?" asked Faron.

"As we are now at war, we are quite strict about confirming someone\'s identity. All we have done here is just a little bit of identity confirmation. I apologize if this process bothers all of you." replied Lily.

\'A little bit of identity confirmation?!!\' thought everyone while looking at the destruction in the surrounding.

They also could find heavy mana traces in the surrounding area. They even thought that there was an all-out fight between high-grade combatants. No matter what, this is definitely not an identity confirmation process.

However, they also couldn\'t rebuke Lily since Lady Jayna herself is not saying anything about it. Besides, all the sixth-grade combatants find Lily quite weird.

Their instinct tells them to get away as far as possible from this petite girl, yet they couldn\'t even find any speck of mana on her. Every combatant in this world always radiates mana whether they want it or not.

Most high-grade combatants could suppress it, but they still couldn\'t completely hide it from sixth-grade combatants or above.

Therefore, they find Lily\'s situation to be bizarre. They feel like meeting an ordinary person that is not forming a core. Yet, their instinct is to tell them that she is capable of killing all of them.

As experienced sixth-grade holy knights, they know Lily\'s power may almost reach seventh-grade combatants as only people at that level could make them feel like that.

"I see.. Then, I will excuse myself first." said Anny, who didn\'t want to get involved in the Heart kingdom\'s affairs anymore.

Unlike the Temple of Death, the Karum only has little power in the Heart Kingdom. They also have a strict contract with the Heart kingdom. Therefore even if they are interested in the kingdom\'s affairs, they couldn\'t get into it because it is restricted by contract.

Following Anny\'s example, everyone also decides to withdraw themself until it is only Faron and his knights.

After a moment of silence, "I suggest you not test me. Since I believe your Temple of Death will not be able to bear its consequence." said Lily with her expressionless face.

"Are you threatening us?" asked Faron.

"No, I am just saving your worthless life." replied Lily coldly.

Hearing such an arrogant reply, Faron couldn\'t help but want to release mana pressure to teach the petite silver-haired girl. Yet, being seen by Lily makes Faron couldn\'t help but have cold sweat on his back. With each passing moment, he feels like his death is coming.

"T-Then.. I-I will excuse myself." said Faron before going away from his spot.

A few moments later, Angus comes back wearing new clothes while his body is fully healed. Angus didn\'t plan to expose his abnormal regeneration ability, especially to the religious organization.

This kind of organization may look friendly and on the light side. However, after getting the hidden knowledge of the Temple of Death, there is also hidden darkness inside their light facade.

On more than one occasion, the Temple of Death abducts particular kinds of people to become lab experiments. At some point, they are even worse than Evil God believers or other heretics groups. Angus believes the other religious groups are also not too different than them.

"Thanks, Lily, for your covering." said Angus while hugging Jayna.

"No problem, Master Angus. However, I still think it should be Lady Jayna\'s job to make some excuse for them." said Lily.

"Well, Jayna didn\'t really like to talk to other people. Anyway, I didn\'t expect Master Benjamin to send you here." said Angus while letting Jayna snuggle her head to his chest.

"Father told me to get some kind of vacation since I always train the others nonstop. Then, it just happened that he needed a trustworthy and strong person to send a package to you." replied Lily.

"I see. Judging by your capability, I believe you could train them nonstop. Then, did you have the package?" asked Angus.

"Yes, it\'s here." said Lily while bringing out an item from some kind of black hole.

\'Storage Spell.\' thought Angus.

Looking at this, Angus couldn\'t help but want to curse Lily. Storage spell is under the category of space elemental spell. Unlike other space elemental spells/skills, the spell is actually not too hard to learn.

As long as someone can reach some understanding about the space elemental, they could use it. Hence, Angus could also use it since he has a lot of understanding in terms of space elemental.

However, the problem is the spell mana consumption. With Angus\'s current mana, he didn\'t have problems casting the spell. But, he needs to use mana to maintain the storage spell. Its consumption also gets more significant the more items inside the storage and its size.

Even storing a wooden spoon or fork could exhaust all Angus\'s mana in a few hours. Moreover, It will consume more when it keeps powerful objects such as artifacts or other magical items. Therefore, Angus couldn\'t use the spell despite his absurd mana regeneration.

However, the mana regeneration of Homunculus is on a different scale from the current Angus, especially Lily\'s mana regeneration. She is basically a broken-like existence. If Lily wanted, she could even continuously cast fifth circle spells nonstop all day without getting tired.

After the demonstration in front of King Leon, Lily is not just staying idle and training the other homunculus. She is also improving herself, especially in terms of spells. Because of her great computerized brain, she could easily calculate the spells.

Combined with her precise mana manipulation from his body, she could cast all the fourth circle spells and a few fifth-grade spells chantless. Currently, Lily\'s power level is between sixth-grade combatant and seventh-grade combatant.

Looking at the dark metallic sphere in Lily\'s hand, "Good, with this, I could start my experiment." said Angus while taking out the sphere and playing it in his hand casually.

If the researchers in the Research Center saw Angus\'s deed, they would curse him a thousand times. Not only is the sphere a very rare item, but it is also worth a Count family\'s entire fortune.

"Angus, what is that?" asked Anna, who curiously looked at the metallic sphere.

Hearing Anna\'s question, Angus immediately has a surprised expression. After all this year, Angus knows a few things attracted Anna\'s interest. Even if she finds it interesting, she will directly try to eat it first before asking around.

Looking at Anna asking first before trying to eat makes Angus interested in the little girl\'s behavior. After all, even Angus didn\'t want to admit it. The little girl is too monstrous. If Angus is not living in the fantasy world, he may decide to stay as far as possible from her.

"What do you think this is?" asked Angus, trying to test Anna.

"Umm.. I think it is a heart." replied Anna innocently.

As soon as Anna said this, both Angus and Lily immediately looked at the little girl, surprised.

"Have you ever seen this sphere?" asked Angus.

"Nope. But, my instinct tells me it is some kind of heart." replied Anna.

\'Instinct… She always said this when she was able to guess something right. But, isn\'t this instinct too strong?!! She could even guess the sphere\'s name.\' thought Angus inwardly.

"Master Angus, have you told the others about the sphere?" asked Lily.

Wake up from his inner thought, "Nope. Even if I want to tell the others, I wouldn\'t be able to because of the contract." said Angus.

Hearing this, Lily immediately looks at the black-haired girl carefully. The sphere in Angus\'s hand is called the Heart. It is a material for the homunculus\'s energy core. Although it couldn\'t become a core without Vigo\'s rune, it is still a very valuable item.

Using everyone\'s knowledge, the researcher creates a material able to withstand significant amounts of mana. According to the legend and Benjamin, Homunculus\'s core should be Philosopher\'s Stone.

However, Master Benjamin refused to divulge any knowledge about the Philosopher\'s stone. Therefore, they decide to search for another material for the core. Since they also needed to produce a few homunculus, they concluded they couldn\'t use rare natural materials.

In the end, they decide to synthesize material and create a new unknown material. Since it will be used as the core of the Homunculus, they choose to call it Heart.

The problem is only people involved with Lily\'s initial creation know about the Heart. Even King Leon himself also didn\'t know anything about the Heart. Yet, Anna can guess its name right. Suddenly, both Angus and Lily have a revelation thinking about Anna\'s previous behavior.

"Anna, could you tell me why you pointed your claws at Lily\'s chest previously?" asked Angus.

"I thought I could hurt her if I hit her there." replied Jayna.

\'Hurt her?! Indeed, the place Anna points to is Lily\'s core location. Although it will not instantly kill Lily, it still will cause heavy damage to her.\' thought Angus.

"I guess… You know it from your instinct, right?" asked Angus.

"Yup." said Anna.
