Chapter 464 - 253: Chosen of the Frost Goddess

After nearly an hour of hammering, when Elder Grenum, looking slightly tired, handed Counterattacker back, he said something that made Raine’s heart jolt:

"Raine, it’s been successfully repaired!"

"Thank you so much, Elder Grenum!"

Overjoyed, Raine gripped the still scorching-hot Counterattacker and looked it over carefully, only to see that the cracks on the hammerhead had completely vanished, without the slightest trace that it had ever shattered.

Clearly, this repair was an absolute success.

Since Raine had previously used Identification Spell on Counterattacker, its full set of Attributes immediately surfaced in his mind at this moment. Nothing else had changed, but its Durability had strikingly become (10/10).

You had to know, its Durability had once dropped to (1/10).

In other words, previously, Special Effect Three—"Immune to one lethal Magic or certain-death attack, temporarily suppress all injuries and fatigue, and gain triple strikes and +50% counterattack speed in the ensuing counterattack. (Each time this effect is triggered, the Warhammer’s damage increases by 10%. This effect can only be triggered once per day.)"—could have failed at any time.

If Counterattacker failed, in this world where gods truly existed, Raine would find it very hard to feel any sense of security.

Even his Golden Finger couldn’t make up for this, at least not for now.

But it was different now; it was equivalent to having an extra life.

...

The border between the Fadir Kingdom and the Soladin Kingdom.

In a clearing in the middle of a dense forest, a bonfire was crackling away.

Beside the fire, a middle-aged man in a black robe and a stunning woman in a red Mage Robe were casually sitting around it.

"Lord Siegfried, what do you think about the information Lord Yejiya sent—could it be true?" Lilith couldn’t help asking.

Because in Lilith’s opinion, within the Soladin Kingdom, there were at least hundreds if not a thousand people called Raine; the name was just too common.

Especially since the location mentioned in the report was actually Warwick City; you had to know that was within the Fadir Wetland Kingdom, not the Soladin Kingdom.

When it came to people from different Kingdoms sharing the same name, there were even more of them.

"I have a feeling the person is very likely that Raine."

"My lord, but if it really is him, shouldn’t we prepare a bit more thoroughly!"

"His close-combat ability is very strong, to the point that he can go toe-to-toe with an elite Enchanting Demon, and his Magic resistance is also extremely high. Logically speaking, a Power set shouldn’t have such strong Magic resistance."

"And lastly, the guy is a total freak—he can even use Frost Spell! Oh, right, and that move where large patches of ice crystals capable of reflecting Magic actually appeared on his Shield!"

Lilith couldn’t help recalling those two battles she had fought against Raine, especially the last one. Even now, she still felt a lingering fear.

That feeling of being almost certain she could kill the opponent, only to be overturned, was something she would never forget for the rest of her life!

She had even reflected over this during this period—what would she do if she ran into Raine alone?

The result of her deliberation was one word: "Run!"

It didn’t sound very pleasant, but Lilith knew very well that if she encountered him alone, the only way to survive was to run.

"He is very likely a God’s Favored; to be precise, I suspect he’s most likely the God’s Favored of the Frost Goddess." After listening to Lilith’s account, Siegfried put forth a conjecture.

"The Frost Goddess? That really is a very niche faith! I’ve heard that only among a handful of polar barbarians and primitive tribes do people worship the Frost Goddess."

Lilith looked suddenly enlightened.

That actually made sense.

Frost Spell, unusual Class Skills, and that incredibly fast rate of Power growth and so on.

"Right, my lord, are you very familiar with Lord Yejiya? Will he actually help us deal with a God’s Favored?"

Once a God’s Favored was killed, it might attract a sliver of the god’s will behind them. At that point, if a projection descended, it could be quite troublesome.

Even for an Extraordinary Strong Person, that was rather troublesome, so generally speaking, they wouldn’t wade into these muddy waters.

Of course, with the Frost Goddess being a deity at the weak Divine Power level, even a projection wouldn’t possess absurdly overwhelming combat strength.

"It’s just a transaction."

"Besides, this trip to Warwick City, I’m also going to meet an old acquaintance." Siegfried said, his face tinged with reminiscence.

...

The next day.

Iron Hills.

On the Griffin Platform at the top floor of the Adventurer’s Association, Humbert, Centurion Krom Stonefist and the others were seeing Raine and Laisa off.

Considering the situation in the Soladin Kingdom and Dorne City, on the second day after the Warhammer was repaired, Raine proposed his departure to his mentor Humbert.

"Mentor, this time I really owe it to your recommendation and help." Raine placed his right hand over his chest, bent slightly, and expressed his heartfelt gratitude.

"What are you thinking! This is exactly what I should do."

"I’m sure that at the rate you’re growing stronger, it won’t be long before I can’t help you with much anymore."

Humbert looked at his disciple Raine with smiling, narrowed eyes, the more he looked, the more satisfied he felt.

"Mentor, you flatter me. Oh, right—if the Kingdom really goes to war with the Aisores blue dragon flight, please contact me at once. I want to do my part, however small."

Hearing this, Humbert was stunned at first, then, as if he had thought of his disciple’s strength, he nodded, face growing solemn, and said with emotion, "All right, no problem! It means a lot that you’re willing!"

And off to the side, when Centurion Krom heard Raine’s words, he was quite moved as well and said:
