"I know what to do. I don't need you to teach me what to do! Don't forget that Cristante only asked you to assist me! " Firo said coldly. After that, Firo ignored Milik and walked to another olive tree a few meters to his left to rest.
Seeing that Firo didn't leave his sight, Milik suppressed the urge to attack him and closed his eyes to meditate again.
Watching Milick meditating, Firo, who was sitting under another olive tree, sighed in his heart. He knew that what was going to happen would happen in the end.
Regardless of whether or not he could find the ruins related to Reyes, the Church of the Lord of Storms represented by Milick had already decided to take action against him. Ever since he learned that the Church of the Lord of Storms had arranged for him to replace van der Beek with the bastard Milick for this operation, the experienced Firo had a premonition that the Church of the Lord of Storms was going to take action against him. That was why he asked Connor for those things just in case.
Although Firo was prepared for this worst-case scenario, he still held on to the last glimmer of hope that this change in personnel was just a coincidence, as he had only arranged a new partner for himself and hadn't made a move yet.
After all, although Firo already knew that the Church of the Lord of Storms had done something to him, and he had already prepared the Demonic Blood Puppet to deal with it, he still felt a little distressed when he thought about how the Demonic Blood Puppet, which could be said to be his last trump card, would be used for such a purpose.
Firo still had a glimmer of hope in his heart. Along the way with Milik, he could feel Milik's attitude towards him. Firo's hope gradually disappeared until he finally recognized the reality. He knew that the Church of the Storm was going to kill him.
Now that he had recognized the reality of the situation, Firo, as a Dark Adept who practiced Blood Magic, was no pushover either. A ferocious glint flashed across his eyes, and he quickly made a decision. Instead of being a lamb waiting to be slaughtered and passively waiting for Milick to attack, he would rather strike first and gain the upper hand. If he was lucky, he might even be able to kill Milick. This bastard was not impossible to kill!
After making up his mind, Firo secretly took out a palm-sized broken piece of wood from his space ring. This was the only alchemy bomb in the black package that Connor had left for him when he secretly met up with Connor Ferguson in the bookstore.
After leaving the bookstore and returning to his residence, Firo began to check the items in the black package that Connor had given him. He was extremely surprised when he first saw the broken piece of wood. If he hadn't held it in his hand and examined it closely, he wouldn't have believed that this broken piece of wood that looked like a leftover chopstick was actually an alchemy bomb that could blow up a tall building.
Firo didn't know whether to laugh or cry at how Connor had made an alchemy bomb into a broken piece of wood. However, what he didn't know was that the broken piece of wood that Connor had given him was specially made by Connor after spending a lot of effort on its exterior and internal structure!
Connor was very clear about what Firo was going to do with this alchemy bomb, and how the Church of the Storm would react after it was done. Therefore, in order to be able to draw a clear line between himself and Firo when the Church of the Storm was investigating the source of the alchemy bomb, Connor wanted to protect himself and the Ferguson family from being implicated. Connor didn't use the metal brick alchemy bomb that he was most familiar with to make Firo's alchemy bomb.
Instead, he imitated the alchemy technique and habit of another alchemy bomb expert in the Sorcerer World, Henderson. He made this broken piece of wood for Firo. This way, even if the alchemy bomb exploded, the Church of the Storm would only investigate Henderson, and not Connor Ferguson.
Firo, who didn't know what Connor was thinking, quietly hid this broken piece of wood under the olive tree. In his plan, this alchemy bomb that Connor gave him could be said to occupy a very important position that would determine the success or failure of this matter!
After hiding the alchemy bomb, Firo quietly observed Milik who was not far behind him. Seeing that Milik didn't seem to have noticed anything strange, Firo's eyes, which were covered by his grey cloak, couldn't help but show a trace of contempt. No matter how cruel this guy was, he still couldn't find anything, right?
After completing the first step of the plan, Firo began the second step of his plan. He pretended to be meditating, and a layer of faint red gas that looked like blood mist appeared on his body.
Feeling the red gas rising from Firo's body, Milik, who hated Dark Sorcerers and Dark Sorcery, opened his eyes to observe and maintained his meditative state. However, a very obvious look of disgust appeared on his face.
Noticing the change in Milik's expression, Firo sneered in his heart. He ignored Milik and continued his meditative state. As he meditated, his face seemed to become redder and redder. However, under the cover of the red gas rising from Firo's body, Milik didn't notice the change in Firo's face. After a minute, he began to vaguely sense the energy waves emerging from Firo's body. When he opened his eyes and looked at Firo with confusion, the redness on Firo's face had disappeared, and his expression had returned to normal.
Seeing that the suspicious energy waves he just sensed from Firo's body disappeared, Milik's eyes suddenly narrowed. He secretly looked at Firo. He had already realized that Firo might be playing a trick on him, but he still needed to observe and see what it was.
For a moment, Firo and Milik, who both had ulterior motives, were very tacitly silent. For a moment, the originally tense atmosphere between the two of them became strangely quiet.
This quiet atmosphere naturally didn't last long. As Firo gradually prepared to take action, he, who had already decided to make the first move, didn't hold back anymore. He pretended to wake up from his meditative state and seemed to have noticed something in the surrounding environment. He pointed to a forest on the left and said to Milik, "There's something in the forest, I'll go check it out!"
