Chapter 78: The Mage of Domains (2)
“Surely, you’re not thinking of handling this yourself, are you?” Milayna asked hesitantly, as if to confirm her suspicion.
“Is there a problem if I do?” Ketal replied.
“Well, not exactly, but...”
“If I take care of the mage, I can obtain the materials needed to wield Myst. Some of those materials may already be in the mage’s possession. Wouldn’t that be killing two birds with one stone?” Although that’s not my main reason, Ketal thought. He had been learning alchemy. He had gained the ability to handle a small part of this world’s Myst. Naturally, with newfound power came the urge to test it.
At his current level, Ketal believed he could handle Myst. He wanted to confirm that for himself.
“Hm...” Milayna, who had been planning to dissuade him, hesitated. Do I really need to stop Ketal?
Ketal was strong—far beyond what most would consider Transcendent. If anyone could deal with the mage, it was him. That would solve one of her biggest problems.
Wait a minute, is this actually a good thing? Milayna wondered.
“Oh... Well, then, I’ll leave it to you,” she said, feeling relieved.
Ketal nodded.
