A sumptuous dinner was being held at the home of the mayor of Kimohe Town, and then someone came to report that the state alchemists had arrived here?
"Didn't we hear about it during the day? Why are they here now?"
How much could happen in a small town? The mayor already knew it when the state alchemists entered the town.
It's just that the mayor of a small town is usually the local tyrant. If it's not absolutely necessary, he usually doesn't want to get involved with the country's soldiers. And they're not generals! They're just some gangsters. If they are invited over, they might just eat and drink for a few days and refuse to leave.
These days, it’s not as easy to make money in Kimohe Town as before, so let’s save as much as possible!
"I heard that they are looking for a fugitive, and they are going to search door to door, so I wanted to inform the mayor first. I hope you can help." said the bachelor who came to report the news.
"What? Look for them one by one."
The mayor, who was about forty years old, was so shocked that he almost stood up.
"That's fine, let them go on their own... I don't want to cause any trouble."
At this moment, the woman sitting opposite said something curiously.
"Mayor, you should go and take a look. I heard that the alchemists in Lewis City captured an imperial fugitive from many years ago. If he escaped, the mayor might be implicated by the imperial capital. Even if Kimohe Town is innocent, if the mayor doesn't help, he will be framed."
The mayor and the bachelor glanced at the beautiful lady sitting opposite them.
It is said that she is the witch leader from the Crown of the Sun in the Adak region... It is reasonable for a leader of a wizard organization to appear in this small town and be received proactively, not to mention that she is a noble and charming woman.
After the other party came to the town two days ago and visited him directly to identify himself, the mayor has been treating the other party as a guest of honor.
He always provided her with good food and drink, followed her instructions on weekdays, and even often invited her to visit interesting attractions in the town during the day...
Of course, the reasons behind this are probably only understood by the mayor and his close associates.
It has been a long time since the previous hostess of Kimo River Town was kicked out of the house and there has not been a woman who can fascinate the mayor so much!
"Sir Ayla is right. We should go and take a look." He stood up, dragging his fat belly.
It was a bit tiring to sit for so long, so I wiped the grease from the corners of my mouth.
"Ms. Ayla, please sit here and wait. The fat duck will be roasted soon. I'll go take care of it and be back soon." He said with a smile and then trotted towards the door.
Probably walking, but I always feel like he's running again.
The fat on his body trembled...
Mi'erke and Mesula, who were standing next to Ayla, couldn't help but frown.
"Your Majesty..."
"Don't call me that outside, and I'm no longer the queen." Aila looked back at them. They were the only ones who followed her out.
"Chief." Mierke immediately changed the address.
"That's right."
Use a fork to sort the food on the plate. Don’t mention it... the mayor of this town eats very greasy food. Anyway, I am not used to it.
"Then why are you staying here, Chief? Look at the way the mayor looks at you. If you allowed me, I would have gouged out his eyes long ago!"
Looking at Mi'erke's angry look, Aila could only smile helplessly.
"Are there not many people like this in Jagong? Although this town is small, due to its rich resources, it has good relations with most officials in the imperial capital. If we want to understand this country, we must first understand these marginal rulers. Their information will be very helpful when we go to the imperial capital later."
From the first day she arrived here, Ayla came here to inquire about the news of the imperial capital. As the leader of the Sun Crown, she would receive many preferential treatments... Although there are many wizard organizations in Adak that claim to be the Sun Crown, none of them can be underestimated.
Just then, the quarrel outside became more intense.
It seems the mayor had a quarrel with those state alchemists!
Mesula went to the window and looked...
Suddenly he started shouting.
"Chief, Chief... come and see."
The three of them gathered around the window.
A high-level wizard could easily tell that the fog in the distance was created by magic, and such dense fog must have been created by a high-level wizard.
"It seems that there are more than just us in this town!" Aila said, looking at the fog in the distance.
…………………………
In the blacksmith shop, Saroyan and his group and Sean were looking at the three witches that appeared before them.
"Don't move, stay here quietly!" Mierke tied up the blacksmith Fox with one hand and silently chanted magic above her head.
Sean never imagined that one day he would have to fight against these subordinates from twenty years later!
"Who are you?" Saroyan and his companions asked nervously. The seven of them had gathered together and were about to fight back.
"Huh, didn't you learn as kids that you have to answer questions before asking them?!" The magic spell had already been prepared, and just as the words fell, the last part of the [Entangle~] magic was about to be completed.
【Interruption~】
Sean attacked directly, and his magic power instantly interfered with the opponent's spellcasting.
"What!!"
Mi Erke looked at Sean with an expression of "Unbelievable!" Her magic, which she had hidden so well, had been discovered by him before she could even use it.
She then cast another [Thorn Vines~]. Meanwhile, another witch behind her was casting the spell [Exile~]...
Mesula.
Sean saw from the other person's face that this was Mesula who had been corroded and aged twenty years later. At this time, she was still a woman with a normal face, and the person standing next to her was his "mother". It seemed that she did not choose to take action but looked at him with interest.
How could I meet them here? Aren’t they still in Lewis City?
Without time to think, Sean subconsciously put up the barrier of [Magic Backlash~].
The two spells instantly bound their own magic when they were thrown...
The body immediately enters the different dimension, slowing down time.
Seeing the three women in front of him whom he knew, Sean didn't want to make things difficult for them. As time slowed down, he didn't attack them but directly reached out and grabbed the old blacksmith who was tied up by Mierko, pulled him into the house, and closed the door with a wave of his hand.
At this moment, a premonition that Sean had never had before appeared. The fluctuations between the alternate dimension and the real world began to intensify, as if he was about to be pulled back into space.
"What's going on?" There was an exclamation outside the door.
When Sean came back to his senses, he had already returned to reality...
The old blacksmith who was forcibly pulled back was also confused. He was clearly in the other party's hands just now, so how did he suddenly walk in!
"break!"
Sean waved his hand and blasted open the wooden wall of the blacksmith shop attic.
I didn't understand what happened just now, so I could only leave with the others.
"Go!"
