The shadows of the old world, the tides of the new era. Light and darkness, chaos and dawn... arise alternately in a world of machinery and witchcraft!
But what does this have to do with me, ...
Can this sentence be said casually?
That's a member of the royal family!
People who are taboo in their speech should be avoided no matter which country they are in.
"I know it's hard for you to imagine, but there have been various signs over the years that Prince Philip has had second thoughts about the country."
Sean looked at the Grand Duke in front of him with a serious expression. He was so sure about what he said, and it was from the mouth of a Duke.
There is no excuse to question.
The fights between royal families are often more brutal than those between ordinary nobles, and a little carelessness may expose the empire to external threats.
Even in this situation, the prince is willing to fight?
Sean recalled his meeting with Prince Philip, who was particularly concerned about the Eye of Chaos.
"I remember that when the prince summoned me yesterday, I was paying attention to the Eye of Chaos. Before his death, Earl Hamilton of Koga City was injected with some kind of magic by an organization called Immortals, which awakened that thing..." Sean did not hide it.
If you want to know about this matter, you can ask at any time.
"I've heard about this as well. It's precisely because this incident has already alerted the attention of most wizards in the empire. I'll be inviting a wizard from the north to learn more about it later. The Eye of Chaos falls into the category of unknown powers... Ultimately, the most dangerous power is the one who wields it; the power itself isn't a threat."
He is worthy of being the Grand Duke of the Empire.
Not only is he older, but his vision is also far superior to many people.
Although I have never learned magic, these words give me a sense of security. Power itself is not scary, what is scary is the person who uses it.
"Many people want to use more powerful forces, but many people can't really touch them, so the most important thing for us right now is to stop Philip's impulsive behavior."
The Grand Duke was not as moved by the fear of the Eye of Chaos as Ash was. He put almost all his thoughts on confronting the Prince.
But until now, Sean has not noticed what treasonous actions Prince Philip has taken...
Since the South was once under the rule of the Grand Duke, even though His Royal Highness the Prince was parachuted in later, it should not have reached the level of the Haruman family. It is estimated that there are many nobles like his family who have been arranged to various cities in the South, and Weigel is just one of them.
Can't so many people find evidence of the prince's treason?
It's hard to believe!
However, the Grand Duke's state did not change while he was speaking, which at least showed that he was very sure of his guess and was not lying.
For a moment, it was difficult for Sean to determine who was right...
But one thing is certain, the prince wants power, and what Duke Haruman wants is what he calls imperial peace, but in fact, there is also his own selfish motives in between.
In the end, Sean just gave an ambiguous answer and followed the tracker who led the way away...
If the Grand Duke has an informant in the Prince's Palace, then there must be one here as well.
The other party should already know that I came here.
In the days ahead, I may have to survive more in two power centers...
Unexpectedly, after arriving in Lietis, he failed to resolve the issues in Koga City, but was instead involved in the struggle between the prince and the grand duke.
Boom!
At this time, there was a thunder in the sky outside the carriage.
Look at the sky.
[Night: Heavy Rain, 8:40:40]
It's raining!
Oh, it should be the summer night rainy season.
I remember it was still spring when I left Thermian Town. The seasons in the north seemed to pass faster than in the south.
By this time it is summer in the north.
"It's raining, guest."
The person pulling the carriage was not the pursuer but another coachman found from outside the yard.
"Well. Let's go directly to the headquarters of Wings of the Sky." Sean said to the driver outside.
Right now, it’s best for me to speed up my magic practice and study, and not get involved in other things for the time being...especially the open and secret struggles between the two major camps, I just need to stand on the sidelines and shout 666.
With my current strength, I am afraid that if I stand on either side, I will be retaliated by the other side, and it will probably not be easy to walk between the two.
"This rain will probably last all night. It suddenly got so heavy." The coachman outside the carriage complained somewhat dissatisfiedly.
Because the rain was so heavy, even water started to flow out of the car...
“It may rain for many days.”
Sean muttered as he looked at the numbers appearing in the sky.
If there is anything worth utilizing in myself, it is this ability I have now.
…………………………
It rained heavily in the following days, and Sean stayed at the headquarters of Sky-Covering Wings without going out.
In addition to practicing his magic every day, he would observe the maps he brought with him. Even though he was in the northern city of Rietis, he could still observe the situation in the small town of Telemian.
Today, an area in the mountainous area east of the town has been reclaimed as forest land. Due to the avalanche that occurred in Xi Village at that time, the mountains in this area seem to have changed, but fortunately Luke still knows how to plan.
He did not plant a large number of trees in this area, but also tried to reclaim the barren hills in the south...
Almost every day you can see many small green dots wandering around the southern mountains. They should be the townspeople working.
Fortunately, they did not go to the north, otherwise the place where he and the archaeological team buried Bachler might be discovered. In order to prevent any accidents, Sean even wanted to write a letter to Luke asking him to develop the east and south, and keep the other places as they were.
But there have been heavy rains in recent days, and it is said that even carrier eagles cannot fly.
If you want to send a message at this time, you can only rely on manual delivery... Even airships find it difficult to fly in such heavy rain, resulting in a lot of information being blocked during these days.
In addition to Telemian, Sean will also observe the maps of the two cities of Lietis and Bifeng City.
There really isn't much to see in Bifeng City, and the impressions are mostly neutral.
And they only walked through a few streets, but every night they could see three small green dots appearing at the house where the Wings of the Sky was located, representing the three girls who stayed there.
They appear in the house on time almost every night... Since part of the area shown on the map is in shadow, they cannot be seen if they walk into the shadow. They can only be seen at night.
It seems like it's raining over there too...
Because when it rains, the projected map displayed in front of you will also show rain falling.
The fact that all three of them were here showed that the magic did not affect their lives afterwards.
Seven days passed like this...
Until one morning, Frelia was the first to rush to her room and open the door.
"Sean, there's news from Katia Village!"
