Chapter 25 Three pages of paper in the ancient book sneak out to play
As autumn approached, Lachigo experienced a rare heavy rain. The bean-sized raindrops hit the soil with a dull sound, and even hit the windows with crackling sounds due to the wind.
Vifiya, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, stood up, pulled the curtains, and shut out the heavy night without even a glance.
After blowing out the candle, the dormitory suddenly fell into darkness, and Vifiya snuggled into the slightly cool bed.
As her eyes gradually adjusted to the darkness, Vifiya stared at the ceiling and reviewed everything that had happened that day.
First, Raylord has the memories of his previous life. He is a troublesome person and we have to find a way to get rid of him.
Then there was the note in the cave, "Find the dragon." She had to go to the Pope's scriptorium, and also the records about dragons in the Royal Library. If possible, she needed to confirm them again to prevent herself from making mistakes or missing anything.
Next is the matter of a magician living in the Marquis's mansion. Let's not talk about how the Marquise found out and how the Marquis knew about the magician and how he lived in the Marquis's mansion. The Marquis could not have been unaware of what kind of punishment he would receive and how his political enemies would make things difficult for him if the royal family knew about this.
Then there is the relationship with Isidore and others.
Vifiya turned over and buried her face in the soft quilt. At the same time, she took off the bracelet on her right hand and put it in front of her eyes. The silver bracelet still had the warmth of her body temperature.
In the dim light, time passed by minute by minute, and the red ice gradually melted.
This time, maybe she can give it a try.
Bet on human nature again.
It doesn't matter when she became so distrustful.
She clenched the silver bracelet and closed her eyes.
It was late at night, and the sound of rain outside the window gradually subsided, leaving only the sound of "drip drip".
Is there anything in common between the appearance of necklaces and silver bracelets? How do things from another world come here? Necklaces can be used as maps, so what about silver bracelets?
What does the higher power refer to?
While she was thinking, the silver bracelet gently emitted a faint red color that was so faint that it was difficult to see clearly, and slowly sank into Vifiya's forehead.
Her breathing gradually calmed down, and she still held the silver bracelet tightly in her hand.
After a long time, tears rolled down her eyes, and she had a sweet dream after a long time.
After the rain stopped, cool autumn breezes continued to blow. Even when the sun reached its highest point of the day, the ground was still a little wet.
The hunting competition was still in full swing. However, behind the tent, Vifiya looked at the three people in front of her, wondering why they were there. "Aren't you supposed to be attending the hunting competition now?"
Osa, who had tied her hair into a high ponytail, curled her lips and said, "I passed this year's final test ahead of schedule."
There was a hint of surprise in Vifiya's eyes. This meant that Osa had learned all the content of the first-grade ancient history a year in advance, and at the end of this year, she would not have to take the final test.
"We have found one of the items." Isidore's eyes were calm, and there was a hint of smile in his eyes as he looked at her.
"And we have already discussed with the rest of the team to hand it in when the time is right," Kahalan added.
"So?" Vifiya asked casually.
"So, let's sneak out and play!" Kaharun's face was filled with excitement. "I heard that Lachigo recently opened a new shop. Their signature drink is the water from the weeping emerald tree in Iska. And do you know about the small monster called Legu? It can actually be made into food!"
Osa also seemed to be in high spirits, and asked expectantly, "Shall we go, Vifiya?"
Isidore did not speak, but waited quietly for Vifiya to make a decision.
Vifiya knew the shop they were talking about. The food made by this shop was unique and would be popular in Lachigo for a long time to come.
However, during the hunting competition, she, as the family representative, could leave the academy, but ordinary students like them were not allowed to leave, unless...
Osa took out a plaque with the Alsayn Academy emblem on it and said, "Taking two more of them won't be a problem."
This is the temporary travel permit of the hunting club that can be applied for through the general test.
They had already prepared almost everything before inviting her, and Vifiya had no reason to refuse.
She arched her eyebrows and said, "Then let's go."
Kaharun's excitement was completely unconcealed: "Then let's get going quickly."
Osha knew what Vifia needed to do before leaving. After all, she was representing her family at the hunting competition, and she had to bring a knight with her. She said, "Go ahead and give them instructions, then take a few knights with you. Go to the side gate and board the Duke's carriage. The Duke's will be responsible for your safety during the trip."
Knowing the reason why Osha specifically asked her to bring a few knights from the Kesley family, Vifiya nodded.
After arranging everything, Vifiya went to the agreed place.
As she approached the entrance of the tent area, Vifiya saw Isidore standing not far away. When he saw her figure, he started walking towards her.
The knight behind him recognized that this was one of the people who had come to see Vifia before. Although she did not reject this person's approach, they were still wary.
Vifia looked at Isidore who had come to her, and without asking why he was waiting for her, she simply said, "Let's go."
Silver eyes lowered their gaze to look at her. Since she appeared, their eyes had been on her: "Okay."
The two of them didn't say anything, just walked side by side quietly.
Osa and Kaharun were already waiting for them next to the Duke's carriage at the side door. Kaharun saw them and waved in their direction.
The street was bustling with people, and there was already a long line forming at the store they were going to.
As soon as the carriage of the Duke's Mansion stopped, the shop owner who had been waiting at the door for a long time straightened his clothes slightly and came forward to greet them with several shop assistants behind him.
The shop owner was a chubby old man. His smiling face made even his wrinkles look adorable.
He saluted the four people who got off the carriage, and when his eyes swept over Kaharun, there was a vague sense of deep meaning, but the time he stayed there was too brief, like an illusion.
The shop owner took them to the best room in the store as Osa had instructed before, and told the staff not to serve them inside.
After placing his order, Kaharun slumped in his chair, his face serene. "I finally escaped from the academy."
Osa glanced up and said, "We have to go back later."
Kaharun's expression changed, then he suddenly relaxed: "We'll talk about it when we get back."
Isidore took out a letter from his pocket and said to Vifiya: "Vifiya."
Vifiya, who was thinking about how to use the things she already had to enter the Pope's scriptorium, was stunned for a few seconds when she heard his voice. Her eyes moved from his face to the object in his hand.
I only heard him say, "The teacher left yesterday for something, and she asked me to give you this letter."
Upon hearing this, Vifiya took it and replied, "Okay."
Osha turned around and was about to say something to Vifiya when she heard a knock on the door. The knight's voice came from behind the door: "Miss, could you please come out for a moment?"
Osha recognized the voice as a knight from her own order. Although she was a little confused about what was going on, she stood up and said to Vifiya and the other two, "I'll go out and take a look."
After she left temporarily, Isidore looked at Vifia. When he first called her, he felt that she was worried and asked, "Do you have any problems that you can't solve?"
Kaharun, who was slumped in his chair without caring about his image, glanced in Vifiya's direction and sat up. "What's wrong?"
Vifiya, who was being questioned, thought for a moment that now might be the right time to ask the magicians about their opinions on dragons. Not wanting to delay any further, she carefully asked, "Do you know the history of Buma Lingdale?"
This name is too old, and even as the protagonist of a legend, almost no one cares about it. Upon hearing this, the two did not respond immediately.
After a while, it was Kaharun who spoke first: "I remember reading in an ancient book that it was recorded that Buma Lingdalie was proud by nature, loved freedom, and was the guardian of treasure." He paused, "But the back of this ancient book has been torn out."
After saying that, he looked at Isidore. In terms of reading ancient books, he did not read as much as Isidore. Besides, his talent was there, and he might not be able to read as thoroughly as Isidore had read.
But Isidore was silent for a long time, as if he was lost in some memories. A different emotion appeared in his eyes, confusion and bewilderment.
Vifiya, who was facing Isidore, noticed his expression and said softly, "Isidore."
"Buma Lingdalie is dead."
The two sounds coming out at the same time mixed together, diluting the clarity of the sound.
But Vifiya and Kahalun still heard it clearly.
Because they heard Isidore's firm words, neither of them spoke for a while.
Isidore's gaze fell on Vifiya. The confusion and bewilderment in his eyes had disappeared. He repeated again, "Buma Lingdalie is dead. Three pages of the ancient book are filled with this sentence."
Vifiya lowered her eyes. These words, which conflicted with what was recorded in the Royal Library, made her fall into deep thought.
Which of the two ancient books was lying? Or, if the dragon was dead, how could she find it? She couldn't just look for its remains.
Kaharun was surprised. Three whole pages of the ancient book actually contained this sentence. He couldn't help but ask, "Why haven't I heard you say this before?"
Isidore turned his gaze towards him and said simply, "You didn't ask."
Kaharun was choked by his words. He now felt that only the food later could comfort him.
Isidore looked at Vifia again: "At the end of the three pages..."
"Knock knock knock." There was the sound of someone knocking on the door.
The door was gently opened, and the waiters came to serve the dishes. They moved quickly, and the table was soon filled with all kinds of strange and exotic foods in the store.
The shop assistants bowed and left.
Kaharun's eyes lit up as he looked at the food on the table, but Osa hadn't come back yet, so no one moved first.
Vefiya looked towards Isidore, but heard the door open again.
It was Osha, and behind her was a figure in a robe.
