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, ...
Remember [ ] in one second, no pop-up windows, fast updates, and free reading!
Is it delivered every autumn?
It was already winter when Sean arrived, so he didn't know when the last subsidy came.
It turns out that this season has arrived...
After staying in Thelmian for half a month, Claude finally felt bored and prepared to go back. After all, according to his age, he was at the most lively time. There was nothing worth staying in the small town, so he might as well go back to the city.
At least when you run a shop in Koga City, you can chat with the girl next door.
Of course, Sean finally understood from Claude's [secretly delighted!] state that Esmeralda would probably stay in the town for a while, and if he went back now, it would mean no one would care and he could do whatever he wanted!
On the day he left, he told Sean he was useless, looking frustrated. He couldn't get anything out of the town, didn't know how to grow crops, and mining wasn't possible in the town for the time being. In the end, he could only tune up Sean's musket in his free time as a reward.
Looking at the young man's sad face, Sean waved his hand and told him to leave quickly...
From the beginning, I didn't expect Claude to do anything. I just called Esmeralda at that time. Later, I guess he followed me because he wanted to go out and have fun. Now that he is tired of playing, of course he will go back.
………………
Claude left, but his sister Esmeralda didn't seem to have any intention of leaving.
Although he and Luke often quarreled, Sean could see that their relationship had never deteriorated. However, their communication became more and more frequent. He often heard Igonia say that Esmeralda would leave the Baron's house early in the day and go to the town.
Because they were arranged to live in her own home, while Luke was in the small town... She couldn't possibly know anyone else here, so if she had to go out and find someone, it would only be Luke. These two were really interesting. Even if they kept it to themselves and always gave people the impression of being at odds with each other, they still cared about each other deep down.
Putting aside their relationship, Esmeralda is indeed a business genius!
Women who can carry a family business on their own are truly capable. Luke's knowledge and Esmeralda's experience make their work much easier. Sean even considered hiring Esmeralda or forming a joint venture with her. He hoped she would join in the development of Thermian...
In contrast, Igonia has been helping herself to search for historical traces of magic. She feels that if the 'enemy' really came to Telemian and assassinated the previous generation of Baron Weigel, then there must be something left behind. Even if it is covered by heavy snow, even if it is exposed to wind and sun, something must have been missed.
As a disciple of Ash, a learned scholar in the Bashalan Empire's wizarding world, Ignia seems to have her own insistence on this aspect, even having specially crafted another tool for exploring magical traces...
As for Sean.
After figuring out that his family might have enemies, he has been studying his family's history, including the distribution of wizarding organizations around the world.
However, there were limited books in the town of Telemian. The missing ones were brought from other cities by people asked by the head of the mercenary guild, and the others were brought from the city of Koga by Igonia writing letters.
However, there are still very few records about the wizard organization of the Sun Crown. The main reason is that it is not a wizard organization of the Bashalan Empire, nor even of the Zambutar region, so there are very few descriptions. Many classics only mention it briefly in a few sentences, and there is no mention of the formation and development of the organization.
Perhaps relevant records can only be found in larger cities, Sean thought.
I wonder if there are any relevant records in the headquarters of the Wings of the Sky in Lietis City?
After thinking about it, Sean finally gave up the idea of asking for it...
It's too far. Just sending a letter might take more than half a month, and the round trip might take a month, and there's no guarantee you'll find it. It would be best to be more precise and ask a few knowledgeable people.
In addition, I should communicate less with Frelia as much as possible, at least during this period of time.
Not only was the Tacoma issue still bothering her, but she also had the Cain Slate given to her. If she corresponded with her during this period, she would likely be targeted by Prince Philip...
From the first moment he saw the prince, Sean never thought that he was a fool. To be able to become a leader among the royal family members and to suppress the Grand Duke who was deeply rooted in the local area within a few years after coming to the south requires strength and courage. He has an intelligence network throughout the southern cities, so it is impossible for him not to know the way to deliver the letter.
If the other party were to have the caine slate in their hands, it would probably be a disaster for many people.
Although Sean felt that he could fight many masters with his current strength, the biggest problem was his own strength...
I don't know how long that passive skill can last, and once the Eye of Ghroth opens in front of the world, it will not be a question of winning or losing, but my existence will probably be questioned. At that time, I will be labeled a heretic and attacked by the whole nation!
At present, Sean has not yet realized that he will become the "big villain" period that every protagonist in the novels he read before has to go through.
A nationwide hunt?
That's so painful!
and……
He looked at the caine slate that had been placed under his desk.
During this period, Sean occasionally took the time to study this stone slab, but this stone slab, which was coveted by so many people, was not only made of unknown materials, but also had no knowledge of the text engraved on it. He could only understand the pattern.
