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, ...
Big library?
Frelia looked at the two people confusedly.
Although he had not participated in the incident at the Great Library, he had a general idea of the situation from Sean's later narration. After that, he was indeed investigated individually by the alchemists of Kserk for a period of time, but they gave up after finding no clues.
Moreover, the team has already left the capital of this country. Isn't it too disrespectful to come here to look for people at this time?
"I don't know what you are talking about, but this is where our prince rests. You can't just interrogate people here casually." Frelia raised her voice slightly.
"You can't afford to damage the newly improved relationship between the two countries!"
Whatever the reason, the level of the two alchemists in front of him was too low, not enough to require Sean to answer the questions in person.
Frelia was ready to send the two away...
"Did Your Excellency the Witch just think of something?"
"Hmm?" He turned to look at the girl who suddenly spoke.
"I'm asking if your hesitation just now indicates you know something... We also know it's inappropriate for us to come here now, but if Prince Sean leaves, there's no one left to answer this question. We investigated the incident at the Great Library. Prince Sean was probably asleep at the time, and no soldiers ever saw him in person. It wasn't until the rescuers from the Great Library arrived that someone reported seeing the prince in the palace."
Kiana shared her analysis.
Through a door, Sean took a closer look at the two alchemists who suddenly appeared.
That's amazing, what an excellent investigator.
They actually noticed this little detail.
"What does that prove? And as an investigator, you actually privately inquired about the whereabouts of the prince of another country. Do you know that this is enough to deprive you of your status?" Frelia replied.
"We are only concerned about national security. Even if we are the princes of the desert, we have the right to maintain the stability of our country!"
He spoke with indignation.
From the perspective of national interests, what the two said is correct, but two young men with little status rushed here to ask questions. Whether they are right or wrong, they are wrong!
"Hehe, it seems I need to call the guards!" Frelia said.
He was responding to the two on Sean's behalf, but he didn't expect that the two alchemists were here to interrogate him.
I guess no one in Jagun would dare to interrogate the prince, so they could only drive them out...
"Wait a minute, Your Excellency the Witch." At this time, the man among the two suddenly said.
"I'm sorry, my companion offended you just now... but this matter is indeed very important. We also discovered a trace of magic at the scene. The ice magic in particular is extremely powerful. The ice crystals we collected didn't melt in the sun for three days. What kind of power is this?"
Luo said.
"There are no wizards this powerful in the capital. Even if there are, they are all under the control of our empire. The only ones we cannot control are you, sir, and the other white-haired witch. And according to our observation, her power is even stronger and more terrifying!"
ice crystals……
Oh, that's it.
Sean, who was listening next door, reacted at this time. Lucille did use ice magic to restrain those puppets. The ice crystals condensed by her magic were several times stronger than ordinary ones.
It turns out that he was discovered here!
The investigation was very thorough and the reasoning was well-founded, but how could such a smart person be so stupid?
Even if I send someone to capture them here, Emperor Sel probably won't dare to intervene, and he has no excuse to intervene... Two such smart people would be so stupid here.
Although Frelia didn't say anything, the expressions on the two men's faces showed that she didn't want to talk anymore. At this time, the soldiers outside the door also came over.
"We have no reason to embarrass Her Majesty, the Witch, and certainly not to ask Prince Sean... But this matter is very important to us. I hope Her Majesty can convey it to the prince. We discovered undead creatures during that battle. This means that the synthetic monster that even alchemy cannot fuse has appeared in another form."
"I can't tell what kind of power that is, but it's definitely not a benevolent force!"
When he said this, Sean finally understood that the two of them came here because they saw the skeleton.
For ordinary people, the dead getting up again... this terrifying ability has never been heard of, so they are so anxious to get the answer.
"Sorry to disturb your rest."
After Kiana and Luo finished talking, they had no choice but to leave.
After Frelia closed the door in the room, she asked Sean on the other side...
"Now that they're gone, shouldn't you have some instructions?"
Open the door,
Just then, I saw Sean move a stool and sit by the window next to him. I smiled slightly and sat directly on his lap.
"How are you going to deal with this?"
"You still need me to deal with this kind of thing... They are investigators. If they have a target, they can just go find it themselves. Why ask me? It's useless to ask." Sean said with a smile while holding Frelia.
"If there were answers to everything, there would be no danger in the world!"
If that power was not his own, Sean might have participated, but unfortunately [Gift of the Black Goat] has now become another BUFF of his, and it was exchanged for fire, so there is no need to investigate.
It's all the same anyway!
On the contrary, he would rather look for the investigator on his side.
It has been almost a year since Barnil formed the investigation team. What results have been achieved in this year? How much can we learn about the ancient gods, including those deeds related to the ancient gods?
……………………
The rest period on the way was only a few days, because Sean asked the whole team to speed up a lot.
This time it took eight days to return to Yalan Fort...
The last time I set out, I was with Earl Barton Clive of Yalan Castle, and now he has returned here ahead of time.
The capital city is dangerous. Sometimes nobles from remote places like them can live independently by simply taking care of the affairs of their own city without having to participate in the power struggles in the imperial capital.
After returning to Yalan Fort, Sean continued to live in the home of businessman Lucas...
The navy from the port of Dansu has arrived.
The mighty navy slowly left the port with the farewell of the entire Yalanburg military and civilians.
It took almost three months, and if you include the time Sean returned to the timeline, a total of more than half a year has passed...
I didn't expect that this expedition would take so long.
Thinking about the opposing armies fighting a protracted war, Sean began to understand the feeling a little.
Boil~
It just depends on who can endure it.
After leaving Yalan Castle and stepping into the ocean between the north and south continents, they actually met a few familiar faces among the people from the Dansu Navy.
