A giant blue light emerged from a patch of grass, and blue patterns spread out in the space.

A violent blast of air erupted from the deep, ethereal tunnel, completely flattening the lush green grass.

A group of people slowly walked out from the giant blue gate.

The mansion was so quiet that the birds that had been quietly perched on the branches were startled by the magic and scattered in all directions.

Lia looked around and revealed a very content expression.

"We've arrived."

When Heni first arrived here, her eyes sparkled as she emerged from the portal and gazed at the incredibly natural scenery around her.

Wow, it's huge!

She pointed her finger at the old house and exclaimed in surprise.

Vanilla, dragging her luggage, was the first to enter the mansion to put it away.

After a while, a series of sounds like small earthquakes rang out, and the ground trembled.

A deep, muffled voice came from behind:

"Master, Miss Liya."

Welcome back.

A bear-man butler stood beside them all.

His tall, robust body and steady breathing, rising and falling with his chest, reached everyone's ears.

A pair of gentle eyes revealed a hint of seriousness, and a terrifying aura gradually emanated from between his brows.

Henne and Cocoy both gaped in astonishment:

"Wow...it's so big."

However, Kokot quickly saw clearly the incredibly large and muscular demi-human in front of him:

"Is this a bear-man?"

Is this actually a bear-man?

How come the bear-men, such a violent and ferocious race, have become so quiet here?

Moreover... his every move looked very elegant, just like a gentleman.

The enormous bear-man looked at them gently and bowed to them.

Terrifying, elegant, powerful.

Is this the family motto of the Clavner family, which even a bear-man must follow?

Koko was somewhat surprised.

At this moment, Leah pulled Henney in front of her and solemnly said to Helnason:

“Mr. Helnarson, could you please prepare a room for her?”

"That elf doesn't need to; she'll find a garden to sleep in herself."

The bear-man nodded, bowed slightly to Heni, and said:

"Miss, please come with me."

Henney was startled and looked at Halenason with a hint of fear.

After all, she had never seen such a huge person before. The giant-like Halenason really put her under a lot of pressure.

She turned around in a panic, glanced at Victor, and then looked at Lia.

Lia nodded to her, giving her a reassuring look, and then continued:

"First, let's get your room ready with Mr. Helnason. I'll take you around town in a bit."

Clevner House is not located in Brighton; it is built separately outside.

It takes at least two kilometers to get from the mansion into the city.

Henney nodded, calmed herself down, and followed Helnason into the mansion.

After watching the two leave, Cocot, sitting on the cloud beneath him, floated down to Victor's side and whispered a question to him:

"Hey, that should be a bear-man, right..."

How did you do that?

As a top-tier mage, she could clearly sense the power contained within this bear-man.

He might be able to kill her with one punch.

It wasn't that Kokot thought the other person was stronger than her; after all, she was just a mage, and her body was incredibly fragile.

Victor glanced at Cocotte and said casually:

"You need to know that I am not omnipotent."

Upon hearing this, Coco leaned back slightly, raised his eyebrows, opened his mouth, and looked surprised.

"What!? This has nothing to do with you?"

Seeing this, Lia began to explain:

“Helenason has been working in our family since my grandfather’s generation.”

"The reason you see so many demi-human guards is all thanks to his training."

Kokot's mouth dropped open; this was completely beyond his expectations.

Moreover, the restrained power within Helnason's body was beyond her comprehension.

What exactly is his profession?

“Martial arts master, that’s Helnason’s profession.”

Viktor's voice sounded softly in her ear.

"Martial Arts Master?"

As a former member of the Mage Council, Kokot's knowledge is naturally beyond question.

But now, for the first time, she feels that her knowledge is insufficient.

Victor didn't offer much explanation, put his hands in his pockets, and continued walking forward.

Black crows shook their feathers on his shoulder and yawned while perched on it.

At that moment, Viktor's voice came from the side.

"All you need to know is that there is only one martial artist in the entire empire, Helnason."

Martial artist is a very special profession, both in terms of strength and the way to change professions.

It is a branch of the warrior class and does not require the consumption of magic power.

However, the difference between martial arts masters and traditional warriors is that martial arts masters need to cultivate 'natural energy'.

This energy is also known as 'qi'.

Only when the amount of 'qi' stored in the body reaches a certain level can one be qualified to become a martial arts master.

This is just the most basic level.

Martial arts masters do not advocate killing and need to spend time cultivating their inner energy.

This behavior not only gives martial artists a healthier and stronger body, but also extends their lifespan.
