"Merlin, name your reward. You're the biggest contributor to this civilization war. Whatever your request, you can say it!"

In the hall of the spacious castle, only the Blackfire Lord and Wizard Setoh were left.

There was a wide smile on Wizard Setoh's face, undoubtedly reflecting the happiness in his heart upon winning the civilization war. Ever since he became an Arcane Wizard, this was the first time he had single-handedly led the force of Setoh Arcane City to face a powerful civilization. In addition, he had emerged victorious.

Although there were dangerous instances, they had finally obtained victory. From now onward, Setoh Arcane City would build on the victory of this civilization war to develop even faster and stronger than before.

Since Merlin was the biggest contributor to the civilization war, naturally, Wizard Setoh would not treat him miserly. Even if Merlin requested for Wizard Setoh to analyze his future again, Wizard Setoh was ready to agree.

The Blackfire Lord saw that Merlin seemed hesitant, so he nodded and said, "Merlin, don't worry, say it boldly. Whatever your request, I'm sure Wizard Setoh will fulfill it!"

Despite hearing the Blackfire Lord's obvious "hint", Wizard Setoh merely smiled. "He's right. Merlin, you can make any request!"

Merlin indulged for a moment and spoke softly. "There's indeed one thing that I need Wizard Setoh's assistance! Perhaps Wizard Setoh doesn't know this but I came from the Glorious Land. After so many years, I would really like to go back to the Glorious Land and take a look. However, I've not been able to find a way back. So…"

"Return to the Glorious Land?"

Wizard Setoh's smile froze in place, and his expression gradually sank.

"Blackfire Lord, please leave for a moment. I'll explain this to Wizard Merlin personally."

Wizard Setoh's expression turned somber, and requested the Blackfire Lord to leave.

The Blackfire Lord also seemed to know some secrets about the Glorious Land, so he did not say anything and left the castle.

"Wizard Setoh, is it very difficult to return to the Glorious Land?"

Merlin asked curiously. He had only heard bits and pieces of news about the Glorious Land. According to rumors, the three great Arcane Wizards had hidden the Glorious Land away. Other than the three great Arcane Wizards, no one would be able to find it.

Wizard Setoh hesitated and whispered, "If anyone else asked me, I wouldn't answer. I won't even consider it at all. However, you came from the Glorious Land, and are also a hero of the civilization war, so I can reveal some information to you.

"The Glorious Land was jointly sealed by me and the other two Arcane Wizards. Back then, we encountered a strange civilization called the Atlan civilization. We wanted to conquer them but we didn't expect the Atlan civilization to unleash amazing powers. In the beginning, we lost, and due to some negligence, we caused the flames of war to spread to the Glorious Land.

"Later, we were eventually able to banish the Atlan civilization back to their origin dimension but the Glorious Land had already suffered massive damage. The Glorious Land is the birthplace of the Spell Caster civilization. In the Void Zone, the birthplace of every single civilization is valued highly. Moreover, the Glorious Land of our Spell Caster civilization is very unique. In addition to giving birth to the Spell Caster civilization, it had also nurtured many gods.

"The Lord God of Light is a prominent example. Back then, the God of Light wasn't considered powerful but after we left the Glorious Land, the God of Light also left and founded the Light God Organization. Now, the Light God Organization is one of the eight largest god organizations in the God Alliance. One of the important reasons we cannot unseal the Glorious Land is also to guard against the Lord God of Light!"

"Does that mean I can't go back to the Glorious Land? Wizard Setoh, the Glorious Land was personally sealed by your own hands, so you must be able to send me back, right?"

Merlin turned a pleading gaze to Arcane Wizard Setoh. As an Arcane Wizard, he was an ultimate existence. There were very few things that could stump these ultimate existences.

Arcane Wizard Setoh turned around, and gently shut his eyes, appearing to be in deep thought.

After about half an hour, Arcane Wizard Setoh turned back again. In a deep voice, he said, "Well, it's not completely impossible. Fortunately, you're not a Legend or even a Great Wizard. This way, I don't have to alert the other two Ultimate Arcane Wizards. I can simply expend some energy to send you back to the Glorious Land."

"Thank you so much, Wizard Setoh!"

Merlin's heart was overjoyed, and sincerely expressed his gratitude to Arcane Wizard Setoh. Going back to the Glorious Land had always been his dream. Finally, it would come true.

"Meow."

Suddenly, from the depths of the castle, a black ball of light flew toward Merlin at the speed of light. It was the black cat Didimoss.

The current black cat Didimoss was still as fat as a dog. With an expectant look, he said, "Merlin, bring me back to the Glorious Land with you."

Merlin looked at Arcane Wizard Setoh. He also wanted to bring the black cat Didimoss back to the Glorious Land. However, Wizard Setoh immediately waved his hand. "Didimoss cannot go back to the Glorious Land with you. His life force is too robust, far exceeding the powers of a Legend, so it would require gathering all three Arcane Wizards to break open the seal. If we do that, there's a distinct possibility that the Lord God of Light would also leverage on the opportunity to send his power into the Glorious Land. If that happens, we'll be in trouble. After all, the Glorious Land is the birthplace of Spell Casters, there can be no room for errors."

Arcane Wizard Setoh placed great importance on the Glorious Land. The birthplace of every civilization was irreplaceable. The last time, the Glorious Land had been damaged due to the war with the Altan civilization. Therefore, the three great Arcane Wizards would not allow the Glorious Land to be destroyed again.

In this regard, Merlin felt very sorry but he could only say helplessly, "Didimoss, I think you better stay here with Wizard Setoh."

The black cat Didimoss understood that he could not return, so he trotted around Merlin with a dejected look.

"Merlin, your return to the Glorious Land actually comes with an important mission!"

"Mission?"

Merlin peered at the grave expression on Wizard Setoh's face curiously. Although the Glorious Land was the birthplace of the Spell Caster civilization, yet after so many years, no one had been able to return to the Glorious Land.

"That's right. The situation in the Glorious Land is slightly complicated. I believe you know about the Church of Light? The Church of Light is the power left behind by the Lord God of Light. Moreover, though the power of faith from its believers, it's able to influence the entire Glorious Land. Due to the seal placed by the three great Arcane Wizards on the Glorious Land, the Lord God of Light's power is weakened countless folds, so he could only transmit traces of power into the Glorious Land. For many years, we dare not break open the seal to the Glorious Land, so we're unable to get rid of the Church of Light. This time when you return to the Glorious Land, your most important mission is to destroy the Church of Light. You must completely eradicate Lord God of Light's aspiration to use the Church of Light to influence the Glorious Land!"

In sending Merlin back to the Glorious Land, Wizard Setoh arranged a mission for him to destroy the Church of Light.

Merlin carefully recalled memories of the Church of Light. In the Glorious Land, the Church of Light was considered a behemoth existence. Even the Great Wizards among the Spell Casters were unable to defeat the Church of Light, shedding light that the Church of Light was not at all a simple opponent.

"Wizard Setoh, the Church of Light isn't that simple. In addition, a Lord God is involved, an ultimate existence that founded a god organization. What if there are some accidents…?"

Merlin was a little reluctant but Wizard Setoh scolded him amicably. "Merlin, are you trying to derive some benefits from me? I'll tell you now, there are no benefits for you. You say that the Lord God of Light is powerful. Is he any more powerful than the three great Arcane Wizards? Standing behind you are the three great Arcane Wizards! Furthermore, with the three great Arcane Wizards' seal, even if the Lord God of Light noticed something amiss, he's unable to transmit more power to them. At most, it would be a Legend's powers, which is about the optimum limit. Do you think I don't know that your Hallucinating spell can entrap an ordinary Great Legend? If that isn't enough to fight the Church of Light, then you still have Darkness Eye, which is also comparable to a Great Legend. So, this task isn't too difficult for you. If you cannot agree, then don't go to the Glorious Land."

Merlin smiled wryly, and shook his head. "Very well, Wizard Setoh, I agree!"

This trip back to the Glorious Land would not come with additional benefits from Wizard Setoh. Nevertheless, if he succeeded in annihilating the Church of Light, perhaps there would be some benefits for him.

After all, the Church of Light was a powerful force that had been entrenched in the Glorious Land for so many years. How would it be sparse?

"When are you ready to depart?"

Wizard Setoh asked Merlin.

Merlin thought for a moment. He had not much to prepare. The Wizard Heart in his Awareness had not been fused with the Darkness-type and Thunder-type Wizards Hearts but simulating fusion in the Illusory World would take a very long time.

Thus, Merlin replied directly, "It's better not to delay. There's nothing I have to prepare. We can go now!"

"Oh? Go now? However, you cannot bring Legend Zado's Maxim avatar in your ring into the Glorious Land. The Pandora Demon Abilities and Wizard Heart inside your body, though comparable to a Great Legend, aren't an issue. On the other hand, if a real Great Legend or a robust life force like the black cat Didimoss were to enter the Glorious Land, it would destroy the seal and might result in an unpredictable outcome."

Wizard Setoh was aware that Merlin was accompanied by Legend Zado's avatar. On several occasions, Wizard Setoh had communicated with Merlin using Legend Zado's avatar.

"I can't bring the Maxim avatar?"

Merlin took a deep breath, and retrieved Legend Zado's Maxim avatar. Then, he gave a respectful bow. "Thank you, teacher, for staying with me all this time!"

Legend Zado's Maxim avatar nodded. "You better not slack off. Strive to become a Great Legend as soon as possible!"

With that, Legend Zado's Maxim avatar flew out of the castle.

"Alright, we can go to the Glorious Land now!"

Wizard Setoh also stepped out of the castle. After keeping the castle away, he led Merlin and flew toward the depths of the Void Zone.
