"Are you sure you want to leave it with me?" Sean asked again.
That's the Cain Slate, an item that countless wizards are vying for. It was because of this thing that Lucille was willing to put herself in the wizard's trap. How could such an important thing be handed over to her?
The reason why he gave it to me before was because he was fighting with the mentality of certain death and wanted me to leave with the secret.
But now that everything has been resolved, why should I keep it? It feels like a hot potato, should I keep it at home?
Maybe the servants would find it when they were sorting it out, and I was worried someone would find it if I kept it with me all the time... I felt like there was no place to put it...
"Well, I feel more at ease leaving you here."
I feel relieved.
But he just threw the responsibility to himself, and his identity was just a local baron. This high favorability would indeed make people do some irrational behaviors.
"How do you explain Prince Philip's side?"
"I'll tell him that Tacoma City was destroyed by the enemy. The Cain Slate is a very special thing. I feel a little scared now... Maybe what Wizard Ash often says is true. Don't explore the secrets of the roots of magic, otherwise you will get a result contrary to the facts." Frelia said solemnly.
Ancient God.
Perhaps it was this title that moved her.
This world is not without deities. In some cities, there are priests. Some of them do know some healing spells to help the people recover, while many more make a living from their knowledge of medicine. Of course, I heard that larger churches would even lend money at high interest rates to the Chamber of Commerce to collect profits.
In short, these things are all within the scope of normal life. The so-called faith is nothing more than something that gives people a sense of belonging in their hearts, and does not represent a real god.
However, the appearance of the Ancient God may be the thing that truly changes people's common sense...
The so-called God may not take humans seriously at all.
"Yeah, I understand." Sean also agreed with Frelia. At least it is best to have less contact with them until you fully understand which creatures they are.
…………………………
The summer rainy season has passed and it hasn't rained in these days.
Sean and Frelia were also on the airship with a merchant couple and their two children. They were among the survivors of Tacoma. After waking up from the chaos, the couple sold all their assets and prepared to seek refuge with relatives in Koga, hoping to start a new life in this new city...
The businessman couple and Sean rarely communicated with each other. At most, they greeted each other in the morning, and then they stayed in a hotel to rest at night.
No contact with outsiders...
Because during this period, if you say you are from Tacoma, you will be asked a lot of questions, and the couple may have money on them so they don't want to contact any outsiders.
This is good, Sean feels much calmer.
Every morning, I get up, eat something, and then board the airship to catch up with my schedule. After being "rumbled" by the machinery all day, I will finally land in a rest area in the evening... As for Frelia, it is of course the same. Occasionally, in the evening, I will ask Sean to go shopping on the streets of the rest area together.
The clothes Sean often wore were the ones he brought with him when he was in the town of Telemian. The leather had become fuzzy due to wind and sun, so Frelia bought him a new set.
As long as it wasn't too hot, especially in the morning, the two would watch the sunrise on the deck of the cabin.
Watching the sunrise from a high altitude feels different from watching the sunrise in other places. You can fully see the changes in the entire sky. From a certain perspective, it is indeed quite romantic. Although the businessman couple doesn't like to chat with themselves, their two six or seven-year-old children often come to Sean and Frelia.
A man and a woman look very cute...
Sometimes I give him some food, and sometimes I ask him some wild questions.
Sean couldn't answer. It was almost always Frelia joking with the two children. Over time, the little brother and the little brother came here frequently.
This lasted for five or six days. This was probably the most relaxing time for the two of them in recent times. There was no pressure from the outside world, and no so many tedious tasks and requirements. No one around them knew them, and they would often chat about interesting things that happened in various places along the way.
Very interesting.
At least in Sean's opinion, it is interesting to relax and take a trip like this after a period of time. Going back to the south from the southeast requires passing through many places. The customs of each place are unique, and seeing these fresh places will make you feel different.
This journey continued until the eighth day...
Because the merchant couple had to get off the airship in advance at a rest area in front of Koga City, the two little guys could only say goodbye to Sean and Frelia reluctantly and gave Frelia a flower folded with special leaves.
Sean had seen this kind of leaves before. He had found them in a small town when he came here a few days ago. It seemed that the two little guys had started preparing their farewell gifts a long time ago!
And he said a lot of words to bless the two of them and finally left reluctantly...
"These two siblings are so cute." Frelia said as she looked at the flowers made of leaves in her hands.
"Yeah, anyone who can get out of the Tacoma area should be happy."
"Don't say things like that at a time like this!"
"What's wrong with me talking..."
Frelia actually rolled her eyes at herself and muttered.
"It's really disappointing~"
The two arrived in Koga City the next morning, but what surprised Sean was that the other party chose not to stay overnight but to take the afternoon airship back to Rietis.
"It's only two a day. It's been a few days anyway, so there's no need to rush."
We didn't really know each other when we were here last time, so there are a lot of places we can go, especially the pubs along Brucan Boulevard. There's a lot of delicious food there!
"No need. I've been delayed long enough. I guess Ash went back to Rietis without waiting for any news. We may have to negotiate and report with the Royal Wizard Corps for a long time. It will probably be a very busy time." Frelia said.
Originally, Sean replied that since he was so busy, he still came to see him off...
But if you think about it, it’s better not to say anything in this kind of chat. Just say a few words to take care of yourself and then tell each other some things about daily life.
In the end, I didn't say anything...
"Then...see you next time."
"See you next time!"
The two said goodbye not far from the city gate and then Frelia headed towards the airship again, while Sean walked towards Brucan Avenue.
