Chapter 59: Mythical Heroes - Arrival of Reinforcements

Julius returned to the Sun Kingdom in the first week of the next month, as Aelius spoke with Merlin. Upon seeing him, Merlin and Aelius sensed a change in his presence, and it was apparent that he had become more powerful than before.

However, the emotion on his face was contrary to what Aelius expected. Julius was questioned by Aelius, "What with the expression when you have just returned from God knows what training you went on?"

Julius looked at Aelius and stated, "I am lacking".

"What do you mean you are lacking?" Aelius inquired.

Julius then explained, "I traveled all around the continent practicing my techniques, and during that time I mastered the Sword to a greater extent than before. I caught a glimpse of the Pinnacle Realm of Sword, but it was beyond my reach. I can't figure out what am I missing since I saw that glimpse, despite having practiced several times since then. I cannot see the path that will lead me to the Pinnacle."
