The white sword was emitting a powerful Spiritual Energy as though it was alive. He thought this white sword would be similar to Ardagan, but when he asked Ardagan about it, he realized that his assumption was wrong.

"This is a Spirit Sword. Even though I call it a Spirit Sword, this sword doesn't have any spirit we know so far. However, it contains a lingering will of the previous wielder, allowing it to exude such Spiritual Energy."

"Oh…" Noel was impressed. He heard about Ardagan and his ancestors, but Ardagan surprisingly responded to him.

[The will doesn't have complete intelligence. Instead of saying it is a will, it's more like a lingering instinct of the previous wielder. It can detect danger or anything, but it is by no means alive.]

'It's rare for you to speak to me when encountering an item. Don't tell me, you're jealous and want to tell me that you're superior?' Noel replied inwardly. Unfortunately, Ardagan didn't reply to him afterward.

Old Ru guided them inside, where they found a long table. The ground beneath the table was dug completely, allowing them to slide their legs inside. This way, they could sit down on the floor without any trouble.

"Please." Old Ru asked them to take their seats.

Damian and Dimitri took one side, while Nicole and Anna took the other side. Meanwhile, Old Ru and Noel sat diagonally to them, with both of them facing each other.

"I know that you are tired from your long and dangerous trip. Hence, I won't take too much of your time. I'll just tell you the reason why I agree so easily." Old Ru pointed at Noel without hesitation. "It's because of you."

"Me?" Noel pointed at himself, confused.
