Breaking the iron bars wasn’t that difficult.

All you had to do was wrap the hammer in mana and swing it at the iron bars.

Kwaaang!

There is a loud explosion and shards of iron from the iron bars scatter in all directions.

It seems to break more easily than expected.

Since it is an item used to confine someone, it seems that they focused more on internal shock than external shock.

‘At this point, it should be possible to destroy it all in a few minutes.’

I looked at those inside, thinking that at this level, I could destroy all the prisons in a short period of time.

“Sa,save me… ”

“Don’t come!… !”

“Ugh.”

Even though the iron bars were broken, he did not try to escape, but just stayed in the corner, showing fear and taking steps backwards.

After all, even those with the well-intentioned name of a ‘volunteer group’ are committing fraud, so how can you trust a stranger whose name you don’t even know?

‘And on top of that, a person suddenly showed up and broke the iron bars.’

It must have been quite a frightening sight for them.

That’s why I thought it wasn’t unreasonable for them to do that.

Rihanna, who was next to me, patted my shoulder and smiled softly.

“I’ll solve it.”

Then he steps forward and speaks in a louder voice than usual so that everyone around him can hear.

“Whether we are the enemy or not, this is your only chance to escape from this place, so why don’t you run away on your own?”

To be honest, I thought Rihanna would just say something corny like ‘We’re on your side!’

I laughed, thinking that I didn’t know they would try to negotiate like that.

‘That would be better.’

Even if you shout to those who are confused that you are on the same side, the chances of them listening are very low.

I think it would be a better decision to make them realize what the benefits are, even if it is a bit rough.

So, thinking that it wasn’t a bad decision, I turned my gaze towards the other iron bars with the hammer still in my hand.

After releasing so many people at once and letting them escape, chaos erupted in the auction house.

I looked back, smiling happily, as I watched the security guards at the auction house not even allowing anyone in.

‘There is about 15 minutes left.’

If possible, I hoped they would buy time until Siren could unlock it.

Everyone has slowly left and those with quick wits are trying to get in, so there’s only so much you can gain from the confusion.

Thinking that this was satisfactory enough, I walked towards the entrance.

‘It’s slowly creeping in.’

I see a few people approaching, pushing through the crowd outside.

I called out to Daisy, thinking that they weren’t ordinary people, since they were pushing away a crowd of that size with just brute force.

“Daisy, please help me.”

“Wow!”

After patting Daisy’s head, he walked forward and scattered Daisy’s fire in all directions.

The fire of the sun that only burns those who have ill will toward me.

I looked around quickly, hearing screams coming from all over the place.

‘Is it possible for two people to endure it?’

The fact that he was indifferent even though Daisy’s fire was all over his body meant that he was defending himself perfectly.

This meant that there were at least two people I had to deal with seriously.

The moment I made that decision, I immediately pushed as much mana into the hammer as possible and took a deep breath to use the origin explosion.

I felt the powerful waves of mana created by the mixing of my mana and the sun spirit’s mana, and gathered them together.

When I thought I was ready, I immediately attacked the enemy who had barely escaped the crowd.

Kwaaang!

In addition to Daisy’s assistance, the opponent is unable to react at all and is simply pinned to the ground, perhaps due to the enormous amount of mana poured into his body.

I hit the head of the fallen man once with a hammer and looked around.

‘I see you noticed.’

It doesn’t really matter. I was able to avoid the worst-case scenario of two formidable enemies attacking me at the same time.

So I decided to confront him and unleashed my flames at the man running towards me.

Daisy’s unique, intense flame blocked the opponent’s path.

The man suppresses it using his mana and swings his sword at me.

It was faster than expected, but since there were sufficient countermeasures in place, it wasn’t a problem.

“Daisy.”

The moment he calls Daisy’s name, a huge firestorm pours down on him.

He threw his body to the side to avoid it, and the moment I saw him doing that, I threw my hammer and temporarily blocked his movements.

Boom!

Then he quickly grabbed the sword that had fallen down and swung it to put pressure on his opponent.

Although it wasn’t used as often as the black blunt weapon, it was a weapon I often used when sparring with Lorraine, so it wasn’t too difficult to cut off my opponent’s flow.

“Oh, you crazy bastard!”

The voice of the other person, who seems obviously flustered, rings out loud.

As I watched my opponent’s movements becoming increasingly more hectic and his actions becoming more unnecessary, I thought that he was being pushed around as much as he could.

Daisy immediately lit the enemy’s face with her fireball, blocking his vision.

Hurrruk!

“Kkaaaak!”

This time, he swung his weapon around, letting out a sound of pain as he failed to block the flames created by Daisy.

I realized that this was my last resort, so I took a step back and picked up the hammer.

Then, he gripped the hammer tightly and brought it down on his opponent’s head, sending him crashing to the floor.

Kwaaang!

The expression “crushed” is appropriate, as the opponent is stuck to the floor without even leaving a proper shape.

There is no chance of her being alive, but just in case, I go back to Siren after killing her, but someone approaches me with a laugh.

“You did something fun!”

A man came up to me with a very bright expression, pushed away a fallen enemy with his foot, and spoke to me in a voice full of interest.

“I never thought there’d be a kid trying to rob our auction house. Wow, this is how you live a long life, right? Isn’t that right, Master Damian? ”

Judging from the fact that the artifact Rihanna gave you isn’t being applied properly, it seems like you’re a fairly high-level wizard.

I looked to the side, thinking that this might be the most difficult driving maneuver I’ve ever been in.

‘It would be better to fight moderately and then run away.’

Since this was the enemy’s main base, even if you somehow managed to defeat the enemy, there was a very high chance that a new enemy would appear, so it would be better to fight moderately and then retreat.

So, the moment Siren unlocks, I decide to grab what’s inside and run towards the enemy.

Suddenly, the whole place is covered in darkness, and hundreds of eyeballs start popping out everywhere.

Like a scene from a horror movie, hundreds of eyes are looking at me at the same time, emitting intense mana.

I couldn’t figure out what those eyes meant.

Thinking that it might be okay if I just blow it up, I smirked and struck the floor with the hammer full of Daisy’s strength.

WHAT!

A loud explosion causes flames to burst out in all directions, burning and blowing out every eye in sight.

I spoke briefly while watching the blood-red drops bursting out here and there.

“Come out.”

At those words, a loud laughter was heard from in front of me, and they applauded and gave me a light exclamation.

“Wow. This is the first time I’ve seen someone destroy this in one go. Hey, who are you?”

Since it wasn’t worth answering, I immediately swung my hammer and shot flames towards the enemy.

He quickly dodges and moves sideways, looking me up and down.

“That loser who couldn’t even hold a kendo properly became this strong? Huh, did Lorraine teach him well? Or is this kid a genius? Hey, tell me. ”

Usually, there are two reasons why you want to lead a conversation pointlessly.

To obtain information or to kill time.

And considering that this is the enemy’s base, it would be right to see that they are acting like that to buy time.

The problem is that he’s quite strong.

‘Why do you avoid battles by wasting time when you are strong?’

The moment that thought occurred to me, the ‘door’ behind me appeared in my mind.

‘Is this guy waiting for the door to open?’

And the reason I’m waiting is to steal it.

I couldn’t figure out why the same black magicians would try to steal each other’s items.

One thing I could be sure of was that the items inside were absolutely not ordinary items.

As such thoughts crossed my mind, I made up my mind to somehow secure the items inside and go back.

I stepped back and set fire to the door to prevent the other person from approaching.

The moment I quickly back away, the warlock clicks his tongue and speaks to me.

“You’re quicker than I thought.”

It must have felt that it couldn’t just leave me like this, so it gathered a huge amount of mana and tried to attack me.

I was looking at that mana and preparing to block it at that moment.

Siren, who was unlocking the door, spoke to me in a somewhat tired voice.

“… I solved it.”

The moment I heard that, I immediately thought that it would be better to just pack my belongings and leave.

I took Siren and Liana and went straight to the temple.

When we went inside, what we saw was a strange and chaotic place with dozens of places tangled together.

I was worried that I might get sucked into a strange place if I was not careful, so I tried to calm down as much as possible and looked around.

Siren points ahead and talks to me.

“There’s something hidden here.”

“Can you take that out?”

“Just a moment.”

Siren drew a vertical line in the air with her hand and took something black out of it.

I looked at it more closely because it looked strangely familiar and I wondered what it was.

I could see a dark black heart that reminded me of a shadow.

I was thinking that I had no idea what this was.

Siren, who was next to me, showed a look of bewilderment and told me what it was.

“… That’s an artificial sun.”

The moment I heard that, I realized that the artificial sun crystal that I had longed for in the North was now in my hands, and I stared blankly for a moment.
