Chapter 281 – The Turning Point (4)

The reinforcements that arrived were splendid.

It wasn’t enough to scrape off a few Aura Experts of the rank of Knight Commander and an Aura user of the rank of an elite Knight.

In the Mage Tower, there are two high-ranking mage masters and several middle-level mages who are executives.

Even on the side of the Union of Good Gods, it was enough to see that they had gathered as many people as possible to fight.

Haha If you’re planning on going into an all-out war against the greenskin army that’s spread out far beyond filling an entire city, you’ll need to bring this much.

… When they arrived, the situation had already been resolved and was on the verge of being cleaned up.

Arriving with the best of fighting spirit, those who couldn’t hide their dazed expressions at the monster corpses scattered everywhere and the traces left by the wide-area machine.

It was a look that I couldn’t tell if I should be happy or dumbfounded.

It was almost dangerous for Albaor, but after hearing that the situation was able to turn around thanks to us, he looked this way with eyes that saw even ghosts.

In particular, the reaction of the magician was very intense.

The colors and patterns of the robes were all different, so it seemed that they were wizards from other mage towers, but the questions they asked were all the same.

How on earth was he able to use high-level magic so wildly?

Iris, who was once the same mage lord, but now became my slave, hid behind Iona, who always trembled, as if it was a bit uncomfortable.

Iona just pointed at me as she shrugged at her wizards.

In the end, when I told the chairman that I had been helped, she nodded as if she was convinced.

Although he is forced into seclusion, his prestige as the great wizard of the hero party has not yet faded.

However, other people’s attention began to focus on the story that I had been receiving staff from the chairman.

Just as knights do not recklessly hand over their swords to others, sorcerers do not readily lend their staff, who are most closely related to them.

Even if it is attributed and cannot be used by others.

However, borrowing is one of the two. Either the chairman intends to make me his successor, or he sees me very well, even if not to that extent.

After the death of Theodore Lindelheit, the only remaining archmage’s path. It must be something to be concerned about.

I sighed inwardly, feeling the prickly stares around me.

“Let’s bounce.”

“… Yes?”
“You? What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

After a tiring day today, Carla and Elisha, who had been doing each other’s hair amicably, opened their red and blue eyes.

This time, he spoke again in a slightly louder voice so that Iona, who was rolling on the bed, and Iris, who was dozing off in the rocking chair, could hear.

“Let’s jump out. There are monster corpses that haven’t been cleaned yet, but other wizards besides us have also arrived. Take Helena, say hello to the Pope or Sir Gilbert, and then teleport away.”

“I’ll only obey if Master wants it…”

“Yes. It’s okay for me to leave right away. But… Can you explain why?”

“… To be honest, it’s very annoying.”

The wizards understood how they managed to extract such firepower in this battle, but apart from that, they didn’t let me know if they had a lot of questions.

How did he reach the level of a mature lieutenant wizard even though he had just learned magic? How could the Lindelheit family’s vision be learned by outsiders? Let’s have a serious conversation in one’s magic tower, and so on.

Even though Iona intervened somewhat in her middle, she gave me real burdensome attention.

“Whatever… Have you been patient enough up to this point?”

After barely escaping from the wizards, the priests of the Good Gods Union were waiting.

He spoke to me with sparkling eyes full of goodwill, but I didn’t know about other places, but I had to take the Good God Church on my side without fail, so I did nothing to escape.

Even the questions were esoteric.

The correlation between faith and divine power, whether or not I pulled out the divine protection or whether the divine power can be handled with a human body, the out of nowhere propagation that starts with You look good, and so on.

As for magic, there were things I knew, so I could answer somehow, but there was nothing I could answer to the priests’ questions.

Thanks to that, I got tired in a different way.

“In the end, I was too tired today, so the next time I had a chance, I said let’s talk about it and left, right?”

“But since everything has become annoying, are you going to jump out today?”

“That’s right! Wouldn’t it be enough if we just pretended that something urgent happened?”

Karla looked this way with a subtle expression, Elisha let out a sigh, and Iona hurriedly continued talking at her giggling appearance.

“I actually have an urgent business!”

“What. I heard that she will go directly to the imperial palace instead of the academy… Are you trying to raise a rebellion by taking advantage of the lack of troops because it’s urgent? It must be difficult because you have a sword master daddy?”

“Because it’s not like that…”

Iona laughs for a long time about what is so fun while shouting about a big deal.

By the way, Iris is sleeping soundly, not paying attention to the loud noise around her. To the point where she was dripping with saliva.

Did you like the rocking chair that much… ?

She wiped it properly and closed her gaping mouth before getting to the point.

“Of course, it’s true that we have to go to the imperial palace quickly. If she suddenly bursts in here, even the empress, who has access to all the information about the Levantine Empire, will catch her off guard.”

“… What? What? Why is the empress appearing there?”

“It’s a cult, after all.”

“…”

“By the way, this is the Cardinal of Boiling Calm. Even if you don’t have a sword master, it’s going to be difficult to secretly swipe.”

Although it is a church with poor direct combat ability, it is enough to share the sum with high-ranking wizards and aura experts when it comes to cardinals.

It’s not like there’s a big difference in strength, but he’s even an expert in stealth and infiltration? It would be much better to break through head-on at an unexpected timing.

The advantage of her position as empress is that she can know everything about the Levantine Empire from her seat, but her disadvantage is that she cannot move from the spot.

That is, she can neither hide nor run away. She tries to use that part.

“I also just made up a plan, so I only spoke to Karla a little bit, but I haven’t told anyone else yet. Iris… Well, you can explain it later when you wake up.

Iris instinctively sucked on one side when she gently placed her finger on her soft lips.

Without even pulling out her finger, she briefly explained the empress raid plan.

There was an atmosphere of understanding whether everyone thought it was okay, but in the midst of exchanging opinions, saying that details needed to be supplemented.

I was so absorbed in the conversation that I belatedly informed of something I had forgotten for a while.

“Ah, there’s a place to stop by before going to the imperial palace.”

“Oh? Didn’t you say you were in a hurry?”

“It is, but… It’s on the path to the teleport anyway. It probably won’t take long. If you think it will take a long time, you can put it off until later.”

“Hey hey. I don’t know where the Yandel student is going to stop, but you’re saying it’s more important than this operation, right?”

“Maybe.”

She shrugged her shoulders lightly and Karla raised her hand to her and asked.

“That… I’m curious. Where are you going, Master?”

“Do you know Fafnir?”

“Of course. I read it as a fairy tale when I was young. The greedy dragon, Fafnir, has a cute illustration… Now, wait a minute. No way?”

“Huh. I’m going to that Fafnir’s Rare.”

“Dragon Rare… !”

Carla, startled and screaming involuntarily. Each of the others had different ways of expressing themselves, but they were all surprised.

“Don’t expect too much. After Fafnir died, it was robbed, so there is nothing there anymore. But… I have work to do there.”

“… It seems to be important to the master.”

“Huh.”

Notification of fulfilling special conditions that came to mind while obtaining mana-friendly traits a while ago.

This is not an easy phrase. Most of the rewards are useful.

I don’t know why you’re asking me to go to Fafnir’s Rare, but if you can get something there, it’s better to get it.

Empress… No, because the secretive Fiona, the cardinal of the Seething Calm Church, will not readily surrender her head just because her identity has been revealed.

Even if things go according to plan, there will be battles, and even if plans fail, battles will happen.

If things go well, we can count on the sword master’s help, but… The opponent is the Cardinal of Seething Calm, who can be said to be a master of assassination and infiltration.

You can be smitten in the blink of an eye, right? So, it is better to bring something that will help you.

While nodding your head inwardly.

The women who heard my story were whispering among themselves.

“Is this too?”

“Yes. Maybe.”

“The hometown of Yandel students…”

Hmm. There was also such a setting.
