CHAPTER 20 : POWER LEVEL

Olivia's eyes widened in surprise. "Among the prisoners, there are two holy knights?"

she asked, her voice filled with disbelief.

Captain Turner nodded, his expression serious.

"Yes," he replied, his voice tinged with concern. "They were captured during the battle.

"Olivia nodded, a sense of determination evident in her expression.

"Let's go," she said, her voice filled with confidence. "Let's see what the holy knights have to say.

"Olivia along with Lucus left country yard of fortress

....

....

...

Olivia and Lucus made their way to the prisoner cells, the fortress's stone walls echoing with their footsteps.

The fortress itself was a formidable structure, its towering walls and massive gate a testament to the strength and power of the kingdom.

Built on a rocky outcrop, it overlooked the surrounding countryside, providing a strategic advantage in times of war.

As they walked, Olivia couldn't help but ask, "Hey Lucus, it was you who helped our soldiers yesterday night, right?"

Lucus turned to her with a smile, his eyes twinkling. "You can say that,"

he replied, his voice filled with pride. "After all, I have to take the responsibility of a king, my dear."

Olivia smiled, a sense of warmth filling her heart.

She was proud to have a husband who cared so deeply for his people.

As Lucus and Olivia made their way towards the prisoners' cells, Lucus suddenly asked, "Hey Olivia, can you tell me about power levels of mages and swordmans?"

Olivia was taken aback by the sudden question but replied, "Sure, I can explain." She took a moment to gather her thoughts before continuing.

...

...

"Let's start with mages. Mages measure their power by the number of magic circles they have around there heart.

Until now only few were able to reach 12-circle which is bottleneck for mages, but even reaching 8 circles is very difficult. Among millions of mages, only a few can reach 8 circles."

"As for those who use swords, spears, bows, and engage in close combat, they measure their power by the number of stars they have reached. Just like mages, there are also 12-star swordmasters, but reaching 9 stars is very difficult."

"But even a person who is a 5-circle mage can defeat a 6-star swordmaster because those who have reached 5 circles or stars have a unique skill."

"Now let's talk about skills. Skills are mainly considered in three forms.

The first is a normal skill, which anyone can learn.

The second is a unique skill, which is a rare skill. Different people can't have the same unique skill.

In a unique skill, there are many normal skills."

"Lastly,there's the ultimate skill. I don't have much information about this skill, but in an ultimate skill, there are many unique skills."

Olivia paused, realizing she had given a lot of information. "I hope that helps," she said, looking at Lucus for any signs of understanding.

Lucus nodded, his expression thoughtful. "Yes, it does," he replied, his voice filled with gratitude. "Thank you for explaining."

Olivia smiled, relieved that Lucus had understood. "There's more to say, but let's stop here for now," she said, her voice filled with warmth.

Lucus nodded, a sense of determination evident in his expression. "We'll continue this conversation later," he said, his voice filled with conviction. "But for now, let's focus on the task at hand."

....

As they entered the basement where prisoners are kept., Olivia and Lucus were met with a grim sight.

The area was a dimly lit prison, with torches flickering on the walls casting eerie shadows.

The air was thick with the smell of dampness and decay, and the sound of dripping water echoed through the corridors.

:"looks like , We have to maintain this place in future"", Lucus said ,

Olivia nodded : ,yes you are right,

Olivia and Lucus approached the cells, their footsteps echoing in the silence.

As they reached the first cell,the cell were small and cramped, with iron bars separating the prisoners from the outside world.

The prisoners were huddled in the corners of their cells, their faces drawn and weary from the battle.

As they continued waking , Olivia and Lucus finally reached the place where , two holy knights imprisoned .

One was a man, and the other was a woman.

The woman had golden hair, and as she looked at Lucus, her expression changed drastically from surprise to terror

"You! You are that man who fought with me and also killed my comrades!" she exclaimed, her voice trembling with fear
