Uchiha Madara quickly exchanged the sepith he had collected from defeating spirit beasts for some quartz at the stone pillar. For now, these were only basic quartz, such as Mind 1, Evade 1, Shield 1, and Impede 1. Of course, the most important ones were EP 1 and EP Cut 1. Once these two quartz were installed in the tactical orbment, they immediately provided 3 Space, 3 Mirage, and 2 Time attributes—extremely useful!
Using Evade 1, Shield 1, Impede 1, and the Space attribute, Uchiha Madara configured his first area-of-effect spell, "Wind Domain." Then, using the two Water-element quartz HP 1 and Mind 1 together with the Wind and Space attributes, he acquired the recovery art Tear. This way, Uchiha Madara and Tita could both recover at the same time.
Tita also had the combat art "Heal Bullet," which could restore health within a designated area. With this combination, the two of them already possessed a certain degree of combat ability. Uchiha Madara looked at his tactical orbment with satisfaction and said, "If you weren't an expert in this field, Tita, I'd probably just be staring blankly at this tactical orbment on my own."
Tita smiled. "That's not true. Didn't you already install an HP 1 quartz yourself, Uchiha Madara? As long as you keep exploring, you'll definitely figure out this tactical orbment too."
Uchiha Madara nodded. "All right, then let's keep moving!"
Tita nodded as well. "There may be powerful spirit beasts ahead. I think we should just charge through!"
Uchiha Madara rushed ahead with Tita!
However, they did not see anything that looked like a spirit beast. Instead, they saw two people—one of whom Uchiha Madara recognized. It was Father Kevin Graham. The other was a red-haired woman wearing a nun's headdress.
"Mr. Kevin? Why are you here?"
