Upon seeing James leave the cavern, Archbishop Polaris walked over to him and flashed him a bright smile, asking, “How was it, James?”
James shook his head and said, “This is too profound for me. I can’t gain any insight at the moment. I have no choice but to record them. I plan to return for now. Once I have the time, I’ll cultivate it.”
“Are you leaving already?”
“Mhm.” James nodded and asked, “By the way, how many days did I stay in the Sacred Fire Cavern?”
Archbishop said, “About three days in total. Since you intend to leave, why don’t we have a meal first? I should at least organize a farewell banquet for you.”
James smiled and said, “It’s alright.”
“Alright, then.” Archbishop Polaris did not force the issue.
“By the way, how did the investigation go?”
Archbishop Polaris said, “It’s still ongoing, but I believe the news will arrive soon. Why don’t you stay here for a little while longer? You can leave after the investigation is complete.”
“That won’t do.” James shook his head and said, “I have to head to Durandal and bring the army back to Sol. Many matters await me.”
“Alright then. Do you plan to leave now or tomorrow at daybreak?”
“I’ll leave at once.”
James had witnessed the Nine Scriptures of Ordeals and the Polaris Sword Art in the Sacred Fire Cavern. Now that he had attained his objective, there was no point in staying any longer.
“I’ll see you off personally.”
Archbishop Polaris made a welcome gesture and personally escorted James down the hill.
A car was ready by the side of the road.
Polaris said, “I have arranged a car for you. It will bring you straight to the airport.”
“Thanks.”
“There’s no need to thank me. By the way, once I resolve the internal affairs of the sect, I’ll go visit you in Sol. I look forward to researching martial arts together.
