Unique Item (3)
A forest near the original Preleu headquarters.
In the middle of the quiet vacant lot, a miserable woman was running wild in chains.
“Growl!”
Leon Hart reached for the woman, Leslie.
“Let me alter the art itself first.”
The energy of spiritual arts permeated her whole body.
The spell of the powerless ban began to change.
Hollien’s influence was eliminated, and she waited for her next master.
Perhaps feeling a change, Leslie breathed out.
“Huh, uh…”
Of course, that alone couldn’t reactivate the prohibition.
Leon Hart beckoned, stepping back.
“Your turn, Han-bin.”
“Okay. I hope it works properly.”
Standing in front of Leslie, Ryu Han-bin released as much Aura as he could.
“Taaaaah!”
The flames of ruthless Aura lit up the place.
Kibie, Artis, and Effir, who were watching under tremendous pressure, stepped back passively.
“You don’t even have to use the Valtara’s Fighting Spirit, do you?”
“It’s because you’re just putting your energy in place.”
“In the past, Han-bin’s Aura itself was in the level 140s. He just couldn’t hit the target with it.”
The formidable energy was hitting Leslie, too.
She let out a scream in fear.
“Ahhhh!”
At that time, Han-bin invoked the unique item on his waist, the Four-power Conversion Belt.
“Activate, Prana Transformation!”
The red Aura quickly turned into blue spiritual energy. All of the Aura he emitted had been converted to Prana at once.
At the same time, all the pressure disappeared.
Artis and Effir wondered.
“Oh, it’s so comfy all of a sudden?”
“What’s this? Hollien’s Prana felt so crushing.”
Kibie explained the phenomenon.
“Unlike Hollien, Han-bin is releasing Prana recklessly. He isn’t operating Prana like Aura, so of course, there’s no pressure.”
But Leslie was different.
The mighty Prana wave, comparable to the Hollien of old times, properly penetrated her altered ban spell!
“Aaaaa…”
Her pain was disappearing.
Her hazy mind slowly returned to normal.
Looking around, Leslie shed a dazed voice.
“… Who are you? What about my queen?”
Ryu Han-bin replied with ambiguity.
“Uh, that’s not a story short enough for me to tell right now…”
Leslie looked up at the giant in front of her with a blank stare.
She didn’t know what the hell happened, but it didn’t matter.
It didn’t matter what had happened to Hollien, who she served so sincerely.
There was only one truth that mattered to her at that moment.
‘He’s my master!’
Endless desire battered her heart.
Chained to a new owner, Leslie knelt.
She crawled like a four-legged animal and kissed Han-bin’s shoes.
“Please accept this humble servant, my master.”
Watching the scene, Han-bin clicked his tongue.
‘Wow, she has given away her human rights.’
But it was the only way to get her back to normal.
He recited his lines solemnly.
“Be my slave. Give up all of you, and give up your body, spirit, as well as your soul. If you do that, I’ll make your pain go away.”
Leon Hart’s spell and Han-bin’s Prana were combined to recreate Hollien’s ‘words.’
At that moment, Leslie’s soul was perfectly bound.
‘Oh, this is the feeling! It’s a holy fortune to serve someone!’
She smiled brightly in endless delight.
“Thank you, Master.”

Even after reactivating the ban on Leslie, Han-bin’s group briefly stayed at the Preleu headquarters.
It was because Leon Hart had to take care of some personal matters.
In the meantime, Ryu Han-bin had been studying the Four-power Conversion Belt.
“Now that I’ve got it, shouldn’t I experiment with it?”
He tried to change the Aura of his whole body to the other four energy types.
“Activate, Mana Conversion!”
His status changed slightly.
[Ryu Han-bin: Mage Lv. 7
Possessed Skills: Magic Arrow, Light, Flame Ignition, Spark, Language Communication
[Strength 28 (+1,364), Stamina 23 (+1,364), Endurance 17 (+682), Defense 18 (+1,364), Intelligence 7 (+341), Reflexes 9 (+341), Agility 11 (+341).]
“Oh, I became a Mage.”
He had new skills as well, though only a few.
Level 1 Magic Arrow, Level 3 Light, Level 5 Flame Ignition, Level 7 Spark.
“I guess magic gives spells every two levels, I guess.”
If a warrior were at a high level, he would gain skills every 3~4 levels.
“Still, how come my physical abilities are still the same?”
None of his stats changed to wizard-only abilities.
He did experiments just in case, but he could still crack trees and lift rocks with ease, even as a wizard.
Furthermore, it didn’t display his Mana capacity.
Unlike warriors, Mages, Spiritists, and Magic Swordsmen had their primary energy type’s capacity shown from level 1.
‘If that were to be displayed, I’d be able to find out my current Aura amount.’
Looking back, Han-bin asked a question.
“Is this how it’s supposed to be, Leslie?”
A polite answer came back.
“Yes, Mr. Han-bin.”
Ryu Han-bin, who won Leslie over, revealed his identity to her.
He saved Leslie in the first place to gain information by comparing Guidelines. It was hard to dig up properly without hiding that he was from Earth.
She wouldn’t disclose information to anyone anyway.
Even if the Thunder King or the Archmage tortured her, she’d rather die than leaking secrets.
Leslie answered with assiduity.
“The Four-power Conversation Belt wasn’t fully used by the fit. The four attributes changes, but the other abilities remain the same.”
If Mana turned into Aura, it didn’t mean a powerful wizard could become a muscled warrior.
“The skills become available. However, it takes several times longer for warriors to use magic. Likewise, if a Mage used a warrior-based skill, they’d suffered muscle pain for days.”
Nevertheless, it had been useful enough for the Great Earth.
“Even if it’s a disadvantage, it’s very tactical if you can use a variety of other professions. You could have caught an unexpected loophole.”
She read Han-bin’s mind and continued cautiously.
“But in your case, it won’t be of much use…”
A skill below level 7 was simply a third-rate miscellaneous one.
Even if he had as much Mana or Prana as there was water in the ocean, it would be useless if there was no way to use it.
“You don’t know that yet.”
Leslie looked at Han-bin with worry, but in fact, he wasn’t disappointed at all.
He had been through many unfair things so far, and often he thought that way as well, but they turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
“My level error is one such case. My broken Guideline is a blessing whenever I meet other Earthlings.”
“That’s true.”
Nodding in agreement, Leslie looked at Ryu Han-bin with envious eyes.
Even without her imprinted loyalty, she would still be truly envious of the giant Korean.
What did he mean his level didn’t go up?
So he could avoid all the demon’s traps?
Besides, the only thing that didn’t grow was his level. In reality, he wasn’t weak. Didn’t his true self continue to develop tremendously?
Of course, that was all in return for decades of hard work on the Rocky Mountains.
However, Akhtarun’s Aliens also had experienced decades of hardships. But it didn’t make them that strong, did it?
“I wish I could break my Guideline, too.”
“I’ve been thinking about it, but there’s no way I can think of a way to do it.”
Studies could only begin with a minimum of clues.
He didn’t even know why it was broken, so how could he break it on purpose?
“Anyway, I’m going to finish the experiment.”
Ryu Han-bin reached out to the target located on one side of the training camp.
In that state, he activated the magic spell of his Guideline.
-Magic Arrow!
[Your command has been rejected. Your talent is insufficient.]
“It says that I am not talented enough.”
Once again, Leslie became fiercely wary of Han-bin.
‘I thought you could use at least level seven magic!’
Ryu Han-bin remained calm again that time.
“It’s been a long time since I last heard that comment.”
He changed his Aura to Prana and Force and tried to execute spiritual arts and magic swordsmanship techniques.
As expected, the same message popped up.
[Your command has been rejected. Your talent is insufficient.]
“Well, that’s how it works.”
“Don’t… Don’t be too disappointed, dear Han-bin. It was a useless item even for the Top Three.”
Looking back at the cringing Leslie, Ryu Han-bin smiled.
“Useless? I’ve confirmed that if I use it properly, it can be a great weapon.”
“What?”
Already, he had come up with the idea of using this belt of four powers conversion.
“I can’t do it on my own, but I need to be cooperated by others.”
* * *
After the civil war, Allendia gradually regained stability.
The new Fairy King, Sormel Siaran Allendia, actively picked up the pieces of the broken Fairy Kingdom.
The six Churches were also undergoing internal reorganization to recover their strength.
Fifty days had passed since the civil war broke out.
The time had come for the two of the Three Continental Powers, Kaldris and the Mado Kingdom, to declare war, as predicted by Angelica.
Indeed, as she said, the Thunder King and the Arc Mage were well prepared for war in that short time. It was also reported that strong soldiers from the two kingdoms gathered at the border of Allendia.
Nevertheless, they weren’t moving yet.
“What? You’ve been acting like you’re about to start a war in 50 days.”
Leon Hart swept his chest at Ryu Han-bin’s question.
“Fortunately, our bluff worked.”
“Bluff?”
“Han-bin, I told you to show yourself off as much as possible.”
“Oh, that?”
Leon Hart had specifically asked Ryu Han-bin and Kibie to get to the front of the battlefield as much as possible and use potent skills in front of many people!
It was to pressure the Thunder King and the Archmage.
“Honestly, we didn’t beat the Transcendental with our skills.”
The battle itself was, in fact, a defeat.
It was just unexpected luck at the end.
“But it’s not right for a man who’s in a battle to keep wishing him luck.”
They needed time.
Time to supplement their power.
“Our six Templar Lords are already known to the world.”
There was no way they were the cause of their victory against the Transcendental. Her level was too high for them.
“Garhan and Genovia are well aware of that.”
Hence, Leon Hart purposely put Ryu Han-bin and Kibie in the spotlight.
They were hidden powers that were unknown to the world.
“It’s normal to hide information about secret weapons. But what if we show our cards in the open like that?”
Instead, the alertness would be higher.
They didn’t know what their enemy was up to.
“They will try to use Aliens to figure out the exact level first. And they will be in chaos.”
Leon Hart shrugged at Han-bin.
“Your level is only seven.”
