Sean came to Koga City without telling anyone else. Only Claude and Igonia who was traveling with him knew about it.
However, when Igonia returned to Elin Tower, she was seen by her senior brother Warren, so Sean guessed that the new Earl Hamilton should also know that he was coming, perhaps he had known it since the first day.
After all, this is the other party's territory. Almost every ruler will cultivate his own intelligence forces. When he came to Koga City, he often noticed that there were signs in his vision that he was being watched, but at that time he was on the street... Even ordinary people might stare at him, so Sean didn't care about it.
I have been studying the book that Ignia brought over these days.
After seeing many similar wizarding organizations, Sean discovered that it was not just the Sun Crown. The descriptions of many wizarding organizations all had a mysterious color, and it was the kind of mystery that made people want to explore it.
For example, the places I have been to, the Tacoma area.
There are many wizarding organizations there, and one of them is called Night Forest, which has been recorded several times, but every story makes Sean feel incredible.
The book records that this wizard group is small in number, but their behavior is very strange... They often appear near small towns near swamp areas, and give the surrounding residents the impression that they are always muttering some incomprehensible words. There are even rumors that hidden deep in the swamp is a gate to another world.
There are very few records like this...
Maybe I don’t dare to write it, or maybe I just heard it from others.
But after experiencing the events of the Immortals, Sean also became interested in these accidental and rumored stories.
Especially those stories that are difficult to describe but keep tantalizing the reader's curiosity, each one seems to be happening in real life...
Thirty-four years ago, fishermen in Mersin, the southernmost nation of Zambutar, unearthed a strange statue made of an unknown material. A wizard said it might represent another long-dead civilization... However, time didn't allow people to fully understand it. Soon after acquiring the statue, the owner fell into madness. Anyone who studied it came to the same conclusion, but in the end, nothing was found...
For example...
Seventy-eight years ago, somewhere in the southern continent, a bottomless black water pond appeared. Fresh fish gushed out daily, and the nearby villagers relied on selling and eating the fish to make a living. The smell of the fish seemed to have a magical power, drawing people to a mad love... Until one day, the fish in the pond disappeared. The villagers missed the smell so much that countless people willingly jumped into the black water... No one resisted, and from then on, the pond slowly disappeared, like the ending of all stories, untraceable!
Turn another page.
This time it is the description of the 'Gate of Truth'.
Seventy years ago, on the western continent, an alchemist, considered a madman by the locals, was obsessed with researching the Gate of Truth, attempting to transform what he called weak humans through various means. Unfortunately, he was indeed too weak, even weaker than the average healthy person. The alchemist was a title he gave himself. One day, after noticing he hadn't appeared for a long time, his neighbors mustered up the courage to knock on his door. Upon entering, they found him collapsed in a cloud of strange dust... having been dead for a long time...
However, what was terrifying wasn't this, but what the people who handled the body discovered after they opened his clothes... his body was full of holes and dents, devoid of any internal organs... Later, it was heard that something resembling eye tissue was found within those fleshy dents. Even more remarkable was that he seemed to be smiling as he died!
Read page by page...
Sean gradually felt that there really was a terrifying unknown world in this world, just like the Ghros he saw at that time and the giant octopus hand summoned by Weisman. It was chilling just to think about it.
As if attracted by these stories, Sean sometimes read them for the whole day.
The uncontrollable excitement and impulse...
He didn't come to his senses until he was woken up by Claude.
"Brother Sean, why have you been studying this book lately? Is it interesting?"
Subconsciously, I felt something was wrong, but Claude had already run over and opened the book.
"What? These are just stories. I've heard many similar ones. What's so good about them... They're so fake. Not as interesting as the ones written by the bards." Claude found them boring after reading a few pages.
"Uh... didn't you feel anything when you saw it?"
"What does it feel like?" The young man looked at him with wide eyes.
There was no other situation above his head, which was completely different from what he looked like just now.
"Nothing, just curious," Sean said.
It’s strange, why do I feel like I’m trapped in a story?
"Don't look at this, it's not interesting. Don't you wonder why Sister Igonia didn't come today?" Claude suddenly asked.
today……
Yes.
Sean hadn't noticed the little girl for a long time. When she came before, she seemed to have noticed that he was concentrating on reading and so didn't disturb him. But today, she didn't come at all.
"Should we go to Alyn Tower to see her?"
"It should be fine. At least there won't be any problems in Koga City." Things like robbery and attacks rarely happen in the city which is now more strictly managed. Moreover, with the other party's ability as a Level 4 Orderer, ordinary people cannot beat her.
but……
It’s hard to say if it’s someone else.
While the two were talking, a voice called out from the next hall.
It wasn't the customers calling out for business, but rather someone calling out names directly, and one could even hear the name "Baron Weigel" in the middle.
Accompanying Claude to the front hall of the store, there were two fully armed soldiers standing in the center.
[15oo/15oo, Human, Neutral], [18oo/18oo, Human, Neutral].
"Who are you?"
"Oh, sorry to bother you, Baron. We are members of Earl Hamilton's guard. We came here because we heard that the Baron had arrived in Koga City. So, please come with us to the Earl's Mansion. Earl Hamilton has always wanted to have a face-to-face chat with you."
These were probably Ryan Hamilton's exact words. The two people in front of him were just following the rules...
Sure enough, Earl Hamilton had known that I was coming, and he also knew that the Scovey Store was his base camp, so he came here to invite me.
"Brother Sean!" Claude beside him looked over.
"It's alright, it's the Earl's invitation. Actually, I haven't even visited the new Earl yet."
After all, he is the greatest noble in the region, so he has to go there eventually.
