Chapter 320: Chapter 320: Shall We Fight Again?

Therefore, the role of priest mentor at the adventurer’s guild was never fixed, it was generally taken in turn by high-level priests working within the church.

The church that provided priestly assistance would also take this opportunity to seek financial support from the adventurer’s guild.

But this rotational teaching approach also hindered the emergence of high-level priests to some extent.

Seeking an A-ranked adventurer team’s priest for one-on-one guidance was tantamount to a fool’s dream.

Thus, large cathedrals became the ideal place for priests to further their studies.

There, as long as one was devout, the nuns and priests working in the cathedral would not abandon them.

To cultivate Iyas into a qualified healer, Yang Yu also had to rely on the power of the church.

Amulotdan was situated in a remote area where the commercial atmosphere of Serti was not strong.

Owing to the presence of Atros Cathedral, the city enjoyed a different kind of prosperity.

Priests from all over the world often came here for advanced studies, and their affiliated teams would follow suit.

Walking on the streets of Amulotdan, paved with white marble, one could see a bustling crowd, among which adventurers were not uncommon.

Atros Cathedral was the most conspicuous building in the city, with its towering twin spires. It stood out prominently among the white bungalows that were only one or two stories tall and was a landmark that could be seen from afar.

Once past the checkpoint, Yang Yu headed straight for the cathedral.

Even amid the throng, Lotcar’s towering figure was distinctly conspicuous. But perhaps because many adventurers were among the passersby, most just glanced at him curiously and then went about their business.

"Hey, hey! Isn’t that Brother Yang Yu? Did you tame a new demon beast? Such a big wolf! Can I pet it?" an enthusiastic voice came from Yang Yu’s side.

Yang Yu slowed down Lotcar’s pace and looked in the direction of the voice.

He saw an unruly assassin dashing toward them. The man’s ordinary eyes were filled with excitement as he stared at Lotcar.

Yang Yu found this man somewhat familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before, but he couldn’t remember exactly where.

Opening the attribute panel only revealed the man’s name was Qi, an assassin.

Qi, sensing the expression on Yang Yu’s face, frowned and said helplessly with a wry smile, "Why are you looking at me like ’Who is this guy?’ Don’t tell me you forgot who I am? That’s not like you... I remember I’m quite distinctive, so I shouldn’t be so easily forgotten by you."

This overly familiar attitude made Yang Yu all the more puzzled.

There was nothing to be done about it. If it wasn’t an important NPC, Yang Yu didn’t actually make a point of remembering their names. He had interacted with too many NPCs; it was excusable to forget one or two.

But Qi didn’t think the same. Even though he was an assassin and knew how to stay hidden, his presence itself was not weak.

He was confident that his distinctive self was easy to remember with a little attention. He really didn’t believe Yang Yu had completely forgotten about him.

"Several months have passed, and I still remember your affairs like it was yesterday. Although we were the ones captured by goblins and didn’t witness firsthand how you commanded the team to cut through thorns, during the gathering, I seriously sought to understand your deeds. In fact, your stories were the most discussed at the whole gathering."

"This is also a case of being influenced by what one constantly sees and hears."

Hearing Qi say this, Yang Yu vaguely recalled something.

At that moment, a dazzling light burst forth from the crowd, a splendid armor gleaming under the sunlight, golden hair tied into a long braid fluttering in the wind, and a Sharp Long Spear emitting a touch of cold light, looking imposing.

The man searched through the crowd, and upon seeing Qi, he immediately changed direction, striding confidently and steadily towards Yang Yu and the others.

It wasn’t until he saw this blond handsome guy that Yang Yu finally remembered who he was; he was a member of the Silver Wind Team from Sekamens.

Stopping in front of Yang Yu’s carriage, Sekamens looked at Qi with displeasure,

"Qi, I’ve told you before not to run around at will. Once Rococo has finished his training, we’ll head to the Underground Maze to undergo our trials."

"Don’t preach to me at noon! I just came out for a casual look. When the time comes, I’ll naturally return.

Besides, if I hadn’t come out for a stroll, I wouldn’t have met them.

And, are you saying that you didn’t notice who was leading the white wolf that was walking boldly through the streets, focusing only on me?

Take a good look, at who we’ve actually encountered."

Qi’s face showed not a trace of regret, playfully tugging at Sekamens, urging him to raise his head and take a good look at who was riding the white wolf.

Sekamens’ attention had always been on Qi.

Because of Qi, who always acted recklessly and sought pleasure, often sneaking away without a word, Sekamens, when he came out looking, focused solely on this irresponsible and somewhat disheveled teammate, with no mood to look elsewhere.

Now, seeing the excited expression on Qi’s face, Sekamens finally looked up and noticed who was sitting on the carriage.

The moment he saw the familiar face appearing before him, Sekamens was utterly astonished,

"So it’s you."

This man had mercilessly shattered his pride, telling him there are always stronger people out there, and he should not confine himself to one area. Only by constantly challenging his own limits could he transcend himself and become an outstanding adventurer.

Although Yang Yu had never actually said these words, the part about thoroughly shattering Sekamens’ pride was indeed true.

It was after being defeated by Yang Yu that Sekamens became determined to improve himself, leading the team away from the Goblin Forest in search of stronger opponents, constantly transcending himself to become stronger.

The intense training close to his limits of the past few months made Sekamens feel that his growth during this period completely surpassed all his previous growth combined.

If he now faced Yang Yu again, he was certain he wouldn’t make a fool of himself like last time, but rather, would be able to fight Yang Yu squarely and win without any doubt.

"Yo! Long time no see, Sekamens." Yang Yu also showed a greeting-specific smile on his face.

"Indeed, since parting at the adventurer’s guild, this is the first time we’ve properly met."

Sekamens smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, speaking with ease,

"During this time, I’ve grown quite a bit, and it seems like you have too. Meeting like this is a kind of fate, and it’s a rare opportunity. How about another duel? This time, I have considerable confidence in defeating you."
