Chapter 77: Outer Vault
Ancient weapons, ancient armor. Some instruction manuals, and yet...
Where are the Phoenix Tears?
Raelis brushed his fingers across a few items, then walked back to the headmaster.
"Excuse me, do you have any fire-based materials around? Maybe a Phoenix Tear?"
"Oh? That? How am I supposed to get Phoenix Tears off an extinct creature?" Arius replied with a chuckle.
Raelis’s brows twitched. "Then... do you have a Fire Dragon’s tongue?"
"Nope, the Varekan imperial family confiscates all the dragon-related stuff," Arius replied. "There are Fire Wyvern tongues though, but you’d have to search through the rubbish. They’re not exactly a high-demand commodity, so most of those tongues are probably rotten by now."
I don’t need any of those low-quality materials... Raelis sighed.
He knew where a Phoenix Tear was, but it was quite far away. To get it, he would have to wait until the headmaster or Julian sent them on a personal excursion, and at this pace, the next excursion should be in two weeks.
It was mandatory, and it was meant to build up their battle experience. Depending on their performance, they would be sent out on excursions more frequently, which in turn would allow them to skip lessons and still get good grades.
If it really is next week, then I want to go to the Azteran mountain range. In a cave underneath a waterfall, there’s a dying Phoenix.
Even if it was thought to be extinct, people knew deep down that Phoenixes could never truly die. After all, they would be reborn endlessly.
