"My little apprentice, have you shown my magic book to your lover?"
Lucille, who had walked to the table in the hair room and sat down, suddenly turned around and said.
"You didn't say before that you wouldn't show it to others. Besides, I helped you complete a lot of it." Sean said bluntly. If he lowered his posture a little in response to Lucille's words, the other party would immediately counterattack.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were Sean's mentor before... and I haven't read your magic book." Frelia suddenly said respectfully.
The two men look about the same age, but since the other person is Sean's magic mentor, he should be given a respectful title.
"Forget it, it's nothing anyway. I'm going to rest... Hey, even my little apprentice has someone warming her bed, I'd better go and hold Lucy to sleep." With a long sigh, he left Sean's room with his hands folded.
Strong winds continued to blow in from the holes in the roof.
At this time, Mi'er nodded sensibly.
"Then I'll be leaving too, Your Highness. You should have a good rest... You all should have a good rest." He added.
He stretched out his hand and threw out something that looked like a tree seed. It instantly blossomed when it touched the hole in the ceiling, sealing the broken ceiling like a patch.
He bowed and saluted before slowly leaving the house...
Only Sean and Frelia were left.
"Your subordinate's abilities are very similar to those of a witch."
"She was originally a witch, and seemed to be a witch my mother had saved, so she has always been loyal to my family." Sean said.
"And your mentor is not bad either." Frelia said calmly.
"She's quite capable. I didn't know she was that powerful before."
“She’s beautiful too.”
“It’s just so-so…”
“He has a very free and easy style.”
“That’s just the way she is.”
Well……
Suddenly, Sean subconsciously glanced at Frelia's expression above his head.
???
What happened today.
Isn’t life over?
"You seem to know her quite well." Although his expression seemed calm, the condition above his head said it all.
"You just taught me a few more things. It's nothing special... Come on, Leia. I want to hear what you have been doing recently. I have been waiting for you in the capital for so long, why haven't you come?" Try to lead the topic in a positive direction.
I have the ability to observe everyone's emotional changes, isn't that easy?
Just hold the other person's hand.
It's not hot this time...
It’s not too late yet, we can chat a little longer.
"It's nothing, actually. We encountered a lot of problems along the way," Frelia said.
Her temper still flared up, but with Sean holding her hand, her mood gradually calmed down, and she even briefly felt a little "secretly delighted!"
"Is it about the Wings of the Sky?"
"No, it's about my mentor... You know, Sean? In the early generations of Bashalan court wizards, there was also a habit of studying various unknown magics, the kind you mentioned."
“Which one?”
I remember that apart from telling him about the ancient gods and my own physical condition, I talked about everything else.
"It's about the research related to the Ancient Gods. Those unknown magics are indeed powerful. The Ancient Crystal you mentioned when you fought Lapshi in the Bashalan Palace was also found by the previous court wizards. I originally went to Oro City as you instructed, but I met an acquaintance on the way..."
Frelia recounted her experiences during this period.
I have never seen the leader of the so-called Black Rose Wizard Organization, Fatherine.
I didn’t expect that he was actually a spy belonging to Jia Gong!
There were many cases of spies being planted in other countries. I guess only the Sun King and his close ministers knew these details, and the princes and princesses were still unaware of them.
After the matter in Oro City was over, Frelia was still worried, so she asked the people of the Wings of the Covering Sky to investigate the situation in Koga City.
"You still remember the fortress city we were in when we first left Koga City."
"It's called Bifeng City, I remember." Sean said.
This was the city where Karyana originally stayed, and it was there that the two first learned about what happened in Tacoma.
And after that, Frelia transferred Karlyana away and left the three girls who had woken up from the curse to stay in Bifeng City!
"I just asked those three girls to help investigate the situation in Koga City. I didn't expect that the private actions of believers there were so common."
"Followers of the ancient gods?" Sean asked.
“They call themselves the people of the Shepherd God.”
For a moment, Sean seemed to remember something.
This name is not unfamiliar to me, and I have heard of it before!
When I left the town for the second time, I went to see Miss Alia Hammill, and I heard the name of the Shepherd God on the way.
“And what happened next?”
"Later, they said that although the situation in Koga City was very peaceful, the people in the entire city looked very... hard to describe." After a short silence, he finally uttered these words.
“What is indescribable?”
"It's that kind of... Anyway, I can't put it into words, because they can't put it into words either. It might be a feeling of depression. It is said that Miss Alia Hamilton is no longer in the city, and has gone south, possibly directly to the country of Mersin." As he spoke, he took out a folded piece of paper from his waist bag.
“This is what they gave me as feedback, and it’s also what God’s people often say.”
Sean opened the page and saw:
It was like some kind of verse that the bards would recite.
Along the shore, cutting through the clouds
The Gemini sun sinks into the lake
A long shadow fell
There in Carcosa.]
…
My soul can no longer sing
My songs are like tears that no longer flow
There is only dryness and silence
Lost Carcosa.]
It's like a poem about missing home, which should be considered a normal piece of writing among literary people, but when Sean reads it, it makes people feel creepy.
moment,
A strange picture seemed to appear in my mind.
There was a dim light on the misty sea, and then in the distance… a huge human figure in a tattered yellow coat walked on the surface of the water where the sea and the sky met.
“Sean, Sean!”
Frelia's gentle voice brought her back to reality.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you suddenly in a daze?"
"No...it's okay." Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
And at this moment the door was suddenly opened!
Lucille appeared at the door and happened to see Frelia wiping Sean's sweat.
"They're still being affectionate! Our mounts are about to be snatched away!"
