Moreover, aside from this, Lis also received a promise from Fenrir.

The power in the New Moon Mark can only temporarily help Lis resist the Abyss Power in [Pastom's Stomach].

After obtaining this Divine Artifact, Lis can bring it to Elf Country Tirion.

At that time, Fenrir will help Lis partially seal the artifact to prevent the Abyss Power within it from spreading out and corrupting others.

Although this method cannot fully utilize the artifact's strength, it greatly improves the safety of using it.

Regarding Fenrir's promise, Lis naturally had no objections.

Originally, his purpose in obtaining the artifact was for further personal study, and the opportunity to use the artifact in real combat was not frequent.

However, this operation seems to cost Fenrir considerable strength.

The willingness to bear such a cost indicates loyalty to Lis.

... The feeling of being pampered isn't bad!

But, there's no such thing as a free lunch.

Lis shook his head slightly, hoping that when the time comes for him to pay the cost, it won't be too painful.

Looking below at Jonas City, Lis pondered.

Now, the Elf Clan has started preparing to gather strength to strike against those Dark Elves.

At the same time, the Elf Clan is also preparing to dispatch more investigative strength into the underground cities of various continents to probe the movements of the Dark Elves.

Adela and Lis faced each other with a glance.

Spider Queen Rose and the Dark Elves are making such significant moves, they surely won't limit themselves to just one Forbidden Land Fortress Donovan.

In other continental regions, especially those underground cities close to the Elf Clan's territory, might there also exist a presence similar to Forbidden Fortress Donovan.

This requires a considerable amount of manpower, and it's best that they go unnoticed by those Dark Elves.

For this, after Goddess Fenrir left, Adela busily made contacts.

This matter did not need Lis to worry about.

However, similarly, Donovan's side was completely entrusted to him by Adela.

Whenever the time to attack Donovan comes, Adela will arrange personnel to assist Lis.

After organizing affairs related to the Elf Clan, Lis returned to the Pan-Continent Mage Association.

In attacking Forbidden Land Fortress Donovan, Lis also needed to prepare the situation on the association's side.

He hadn't forgotten the peculiarities on the Dark Elf's side.

If there truly was a traitor within the Pan-Continent Mage Association who leaked the association's secrets to the Dark Elves, informing the Legendary Council about it would merely alert the traitor.

Lis had to carefully think through how to resolve this matter.

Although Lis had some suspects, acting rashly might end in failure.

Anyone who can achieve a legendary status is not a fool.

Before catching any slip, Lis did not want to reveal his intentions.

Since that's the case, Lis needed to think carefully about it.

However... Recently, the association has seemed somewhat restless.

Lis glanced down.

In front of the [Source of All Magic] Mage Tower, some gathered mages seemed to be engaging in lively discussions.

Lis had never seen such a situation before.

After all, for mages, knowledge is life!

Wasting time learning knowledge is equivalent to wasting life!

If it were before, mages might not have been able to exhaust all the knowledge available.

But now, since the appearance of [Source of All Magic], such instances have become quite rare.

If not for the fear that some low-level mages might suddenly perish, the Library of [Source of All Magic] had specially imposed time restrictions; otherwise, everyone would wish to live inside the library.

Anyway, the library has Magic Rune for space expansion, not worrying about accommodating so many people.

Therefore, except for those who couldn't apply for experimental grounds and practiced spells on the grassland outside the Mage Tower, no one would spend long periods of time in front of the Mage Tower.

Let alone gather in one place.

Lis focused his attention and quickly discovered what those people were discussing.

They were... discussing opposition to [Source of All Magic]?

Lis's gaze was somewhat intrigued, looking at the evidently young mages below.

Lis could easily hear what those mages were saying by using some simple spells.

However, Lis truly did not expect those mages to be discussing this topic.

And judging by the situation, they seemed rather impassioned~

I must see who's causing trouble!

Lis's figure flickered and disappeared from the room.

...

In front of [Source of All Magic] Mage Tower,

a young man in a simple gray Magic Robe was speaking passionately.

"I think the way [Source of All Magic] is right now is incorrect!"

"[Source of All Magic] has now opened so many Magic Books; almost all magic knowledge is recorded within them. This is quite a rare opportunity for us."

"But, have you ever thought that the library is now open to us for free, but what about in the future?"

"Know that previously, learning magic knowledge required a cost, which is also the foundation of the Association Magic School."

"And now, the foundation of the association is being shaken by [Source of All Magic]."

Havier waved his hands enthusiastically, giving a speech to the crowd in front:

"Of course, I'm not saying that the previous school system was wrong."

"But with the previous school system's closed-off knowledge, it's very difficult for mages like us without connections to break through."

"Therefore, the previous school system needed change, but the change by [Source of All Magic] was too drastic."

"This is completely moving from one extreme to another!"

"Indeed, by doing this, [Source of All Magic] has allowed us to easily gain more knowledge."

"But what about the future?"

"Isn't the system of [Source of All Magic] forcing us to publicly share our magic research for free?"

"By defeating other schools in this way, who knows if [Source of All Magic] will start limiting our learning of magic knowledge again?"

"That would mean we all become the slaves of that councilor, wouldn't it?"

"Who can guarantee that this won't happen in the future?"

Many young mages around nodded slightly, somewhat agreeing with Havier's point of view.
