In the hollow compartment, he found three ancient manuals, a piece of torn sheepskin, and a black token.
He was positive his mentor had left those items for him.
Levi lifted the antique books and the sheepskin with trembling hands.
The torn sheepskin looked like a map, but was incomplete and torn at many places. From the material and the wear and tear of the skin, it was also another piece of antique.
Levi had no clue what that black token was for, but his eyes lit up when he flipped through the three books.
They were very valuable books!
Although his mentor had never acknowledged him as his disciple, he had allowed Levi to inherit his valuable knowledge and possessions.
I hope we will meet again somewhere!
Levi took away his mentor's possessions and cleared off all evidence of their visit to the prison.
When he arrived home with Forlevia, he received a solid scolding from the family.
“How could you run around with Evie during this dangerous time? Are you asking for trouble?”
“What if Evie gets in harm's way?”
Levi knew they were concerned for Forlevia, so he kept quiet and bore with their scolding.
While Levi was away, the family had been actively looking for a strong backer to protect Forlevia.
They had shortlisted a few renowned and influential parties and made initial contact with them.
Many impressive warriors had emerged in recent times, so to them, Wildefield was no longer up to standard.
“No, no. This would not do. The fighter is only a Rank Six!'
“That is right! Evie's master must be at least a Rank Seven. Only a Rank Seven could protect her from harm and guarantee her a good future.”
The family was engaged in heated discussions, as the few they had shortlisted had leaders who were Rank Six in class.
They wanted a Rank Seven fighter as Forlevia's master, but it wasn't easy to find a reputable one.
Actually, after the Gem&Stone List came out, even a Rank Seven was nothing impressive.
