Chapter 218 – Morbius (2)

It wasn’t that I didn’t pay attention to Sylvia.

Her letter to Sylvia was coming regularly, and I could swear that I was also responding to her faithfully. She could also say with certainty that the old maid who had been tutoring Sylvia had not been dishonest in her report.

Sylvia’s last letter from her is still on my desk.

[Evan. I have now entered the advanced intermediate magic course. I wanted to learn how to make magic tools more deeply, but it is difficult to procure materials in this field, so I think I need to learn next time. I wanted to give Evan a present, but it’s a pity.

I’m doing fine here though. After a while, they say that I have taught them everything that can be taught. I think I can go back soon.

Evan. I miss you. Do you know when we meet? Don’t forget to go on a date with me all day?]

She didn’t even know that she was going to be kidnapped. Even the sorcerer she brought with her didn’t seem to notice any signs that Sophia might be kidnapped.

“Has our plan been exposed?”

“Evan. If our plans were exposed, I think it would have been more efficient to attack us directly.”

Milia shook her head and said so. And she did as she said. If the plan to defeat the hero and Mobius individually had been exposed, it would have been more efficient for the two of them to form a team and invade this place than to do such a thing.

This clumsy hostage-taking only gave them room for a counterattack, and was nothing more than an act of cutting their power. I said.

“Then it must be a personal matter that Mobius staged the kidnapping this time? It was also for personal reasons that Mobius blocked Sylvia’s path before.”

“I think you can see that.”

I touched the map and said.

“How long will it take for this map to be completed?”

“Two months late. A month if things really go well.”

The pace of completing the map, which felt fast, felt imminent. What the hell is Mobius planning to do in the Mage Tower? No matter what he did, his sudden abduction of the target meant that his purpose had reached its final point.

If you rush after something happens, it will be too late. I shook my head and said.

“It is too late. Do you know what will happen in between? I can’t gamble with Sylvia’s life. I don’t know what he’s trying to do, but he’s not trying to do anything good.”

“That’s right.”

I turned my head. In the distance, on the sofa in the lobby of our house, Petunia Titi was sitting sharpening her arrows. She glanced at me, turning her head as the story of Morbius came up, twitching her lips. I told her

“You know nothing? One of our kids was kidnapped, and we haven’t made a map of the Mage Tower yet.”

Petunia Titi gave me a complicated look. As if I had made a strange suggestion, I narrowed my eyes and rolled my eyes. With a deep sigh, she said.

“…Recently, I’ve been to Mobius’ Mage’s Tower. I even went to that secret cellar.”

There was a kid right next to him who knew all about the topography of the Mage Tower? Petunia eats and sleeps in my mansion and she doesn’t even give me that information? I was dumbfounded and asked.

“No, then you have to tell me. How hard are we making maps? Uh? It wouldn’t have been easier with your help.”

Petunia shook her head and shouted as I finished.

“At that time, I was treated like a VIP and went up to the direct elevator! There’s no way you can go directly to the elevator just because you’re going! It’s not like I went to see Mobius’ face and searched all over the Mage Tower, so it wouldn’t be much help in making a map… I was going to tell you when you made a map near the top floor?”

She was right. There were rumors that large magic towers like the Mobius Magic Tower had strict elevator security, and that if a suspicious person entered, the elevator would be sealed intact and exploded underground. If we want to take the elevator, we have to use it after overpowering the security room, but we didn’t even know where the security room was.

“Do you know where the security room is?”

“I don’t know. It would be quicker to ask the people there.”

I looked at Millia again. At the point Mobius kidnapped Sylvia, we were in a countdown with no end in sight. There was no more leisurely time to map, and everything had to be done as quickly as possible.

Millia also sighed as she spoke. She, too, seemed dissatisfied with the situation that did not go according to her plan.

“I can’t help it. First of all, I think we should move to the vicinity of the magic tower so that we can change the direction to find the security room and be contacted within a few days.”

I looked at Petunia, and Petunia nodded her head.

“…I know. I will go too.”

If too many people gather, it also attracts attention. Only a small number of elite members consisting of Petunia Titi, I, Millia and Taffy decided to head for the Mage Tower this time.

Fortunately, there were lodgings and large villages where people could stay near the magic tower, so it seemed like I could just wait for the right time while spending time quietly in the lodgings.

I looked at the map and asked. There was a wide plain between the mage tower and the village, and a small forest area was also visible in the middle. Wouldn’t there be a way to summon Mobius to a forest like this and then assassinate him? I pointed to the forest and said.

“Can’t we just call Mobius outside? It might come out if you called.”

“What if it doesn’t come out?”

I thought of the situation when Mobius rejected Petunia Titi’s offer. He came to the Magic Tower and called out that he had a business, but when he said he would not come out, he just left.

“It’s so suspicious. The risk is rather high. Let’s put that aside just.”

“In the first place, since this is the end of the experiment, I’m not going to come out. We met in the drawing room the other day. Isn’t that Sylvia the granddaughter of the wizard who expelled Morbius? I think I heard that.”

“That’s right.”

I remembered Sylvia’s face. Her voluptuous breasts and the chewy sensation of an anus tame in the shape of my cock pushed me. The thought that she couldn’t lose her like this put a lot of strength in her lower body.

Petunia Titi met my expression and narrowed her eyes. She turned her head, wondering if she had read my mind, and she shook her head and said,

“That… It’s such an absurd revenge. Revenge is already over. I saw Mobius locking up and torturing an old man in his secret laboratory. It sucked mana through the magic chain and gave it an electric shock.”

“…Is that person Sylvia’s grandfather?”

After Morbius returned, it was rumored that he was dead, but it seems that Morbius did not kill him and kept him alive until the end. What the hell did Mobius want to do? Was he not enough torturing a colleague who insulted him? Why the hell is he even taking his granddaughter with him?

“Take her granddaughter…” … I think I have the right to take revenge on Mobius. However, blocking the path of wizards who did no harm and expanding their revenge play at will… I think that is too absurd.”

“By the way, what kind of experiment are you doing? You wouldn’t have seen the experiments Morbius was doing there. Do you know what?”

Petunia Titti shook her head. Although she witnessed the laboratory, she was not familiar with her magic.

“I don’t know. It was a magic circle I had never seen before, and it was full of complex devices I had never seen before.”

Milia snuggled up next to me, handing Petunia Titti her paper.

“Would you like to draw a little more detail here?”

The active appearance was like a wizard in our party. We hadn’t had sex yet, but we were building a solid alliance of our own. Petunia Titi sketched out on her paper the shape she had seen, albeit roughly. Machines and test tubes. An old man stuck in a corner and a densely painted floor. And the blackboard full of graffiti and the stack of magic stones.

I didn’t know either, and Taffy just tilted her head. Millia also tilted her head and said.

“I think I saw it somewhere… I do not know. Where the hell did this magic come from? It’s different from the magic formula I’ve used before…”

“Is it that complicated?”

“Uh, complicated… It’s fresh.”

Mila said that and nodded her head. I stroked Taffy’s chin and summarized the story.

“Then, we can occupy the security room first and then use the elevator to go to the top floor. Taffy, who can freely move between floors, should be in charge of checking the security room.”

There was a high chance of being shot down if we flew in from outside the magic tower, and Taffy couldn’t carry all of us up to the top floor by herself. To move on foot without using the elevator, it seemed like it would take a fight with all the Wizards of the Mage Tower.

In the first place, knowing only the location of the security room and breaking through the magic tower was a gamble in itself. Because the Mage Tower was full of security devices to guard against intruders. We were just making reckless plans because we didn’t have time.

I pointed to the top floor of the tower and said.

“After defeating Mobius here. Let’s go to that secret laboratory and save Sylvia and come out.”

You couldn’t just break down the wall and get to the secret lab. After entering the secret lab, without Mobius, we had to fight Mobius shooting magic over our heads.

We didn’t know anything about the security system in the upper level of the Mage Tower. As soon as he got off the elevator, it was best to knock down Mobius by destroying the surroundings in the most destructive way possible.

Petunia Titi said cautiously.

“If I go up for the last time this time, can you give me one chance? I want to convince you one last time.”

I looked at Milia and Taffy. Taffy shook her head, and Milia said.

“Do we look that strong?”

Petunia Titty just kept her mouth shut and her head hanging.

I said patting her on the shoulder.

“Understand me. Petunia. Still, this is for the best for us.”

“…Okay.”
