Three days had passed since the princess's funeral, and for the entire imperial capital of Keselke, this incident was just a topic of conversation after dinner.
Many people still occasionally talk about what they saw and heard that night...especially the huge door.
The topic of "The Gate of Truth" suddenly became popular again without any basis. Some people even linked Meredith with the Gate of Truth when talking about him. Some people said that he might have seen the real God and that was why he disappeared from the mortal world.
Whether it was intentional or to attract some attention, even though Meredith was defined as a traitor by the country, his story was still passed down among the people...
At this point, Sean Zongyu finally understood why the alchemists were still so obsessed with the Gate of Truth and the Book of the Dead more than 20 years later!
Human beings’ exploration of curiosity never stops at learning from past experiences!
While the Xerxes Empire still respected him, Sean took the opportunity to take a look at the library where Occam left the note, but he did not find the secret of the fragments of the Book of the Dead that he had hidden. After all, there was no password or code this time, and he could not find it among millions of books... Later he heard that Occam, the people who saved him, and Saroyan's team were actually sacrificed to the Black Goat in this incident.
Therefore, Sean guessed that the information should have been taken away by Meredith as well.
And in the final analysis, the Book of the Dead was something that Nyarlathotep induced people to write, and it is probably just a method of summoning the ancient gods.
Sean did gain a lot of knowledge from the Gate of Truth...about the origin of these things and their invisible abilities!
Sean saw a black shadow in the final void, and after coming out of it, he felt his strength becoming stronger... At this moment, even without relying on the power of the ancient gods, he had strength comparable to Frelia.
When I walked back to my residence on the street, the little girl Lucille was waiting for me at the door in the distance.
"Teacher, this way!" He waved affectionately when he saw me coming.
"Why did you run out by yourself? Did you study magic well today?"
"I'll learn it." He had an unhappy expression on his face.
After such a long time since he was brought out of the sea, his previously obedient character has finally changed a little, and now he has become a bit like Lucille later... very smart and cunning, but his abilities are also improving rapidly.
If Sean hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that there was such an amazing genius in this world who didn't rely on the ancient gods. Now the six-year-old Lucille already has the strength of a level 3 orderer. If you don't take into account the experience and the fact that she was deceived, the little girl's strength is even greater than that of the captain of the guard in her own town!
This is too much.
In other words, she is now capable of using her strength to snatch the job of a guard captain in a small place.
It should not only be the Basaran Empire, there should be nobles in remote mountainous areas in Keselk and even other countries, where the little girl's level can sweep away everyone.
Genius, it turns out that from the very beginning he didn't take ordinary people seriously at all...
"Yes, mentor."
"What?" Sean looked at Lucille who asked the question. Regardless of whether she was a genius or not, at least their relationship had always been that of master and disciple, and she would listen to what he said.
Even if an indescribable force caused their relationship to be reversed twenty years later, she would still consider her disciple's words...
"I've noticed Lucille's been in a bad mood these past few days. Should we buy something to comfort her?" Sean rarely saw Lucille have any friends. Not even twenty years ago, not even twenty years ago. These were the only people she cared about.
She really cares about Rachel.
"So what do you want to buy?"
"I...I don't know."
The little girl shook her head, actually she couldn't explain it.
"I'm afraid buying something won't comfort her. She can only slowly forget about it on her own." Seeing the little girl's puzzled look, Sean didn't intend to explain.
Come to think of it, I hadn't expected Rachel to like Rorschach so much. Before, when they were in Lewis City, they seemed quite normal, more like an ordinary superior-subordinate relationship with no hint of anything fishy going on. But now I realize that their relationship is really quite deep...
Perhaps they both knew their own situation.
Sometimes it seems like they don’t understand, but both of them do…
Being unwilling to explain clearly doesn’t mean you really don’t understand.
But there are always some people who like to waste time, maybe out of consideration, maybe out of humility, but they always waste time like this...
It will only become like this when this relationship is really broken one day.
After Sean learned about Rachel's identity, he also felt that Rorschach actually had no hope. The daughter of a marquis was originally training under a famous teacher, and her status was higher than his, so what hope was there?
Not everyone is a hero. It should be said that most people are just ordinary people. When they experience too many disappointments, they will slowly accept their ordinariness.
It’s just a pity…
Rorschach simply couldn't wait until then.
"Maybe buy something she likes and try to take her in the next few days." Seeing that the little girl was confused, Sean had no choice but to say this.
"Yeah." Lucille replied.
The two of them were staying in a place arranged by Emperor Williams. Thanks to Ayla, Sean and Lucille were also treated as VIPs...
"I forgot one thing. If the witch leader's subordinates asked you to come back, go look for her." After finishing her own affairs, Lucille remembered something else.
"Ah? When?"
"Just before the instructor left..."
"That's been a long time!" Sean said helplessly.
Is Aila looking for me again?
I don’t know what to do…
………………
After making arrangements with Lucille, Sean went to Ayla's residence.
If they stayed in other hotels, it wouldn't be so troublesome to see each other when they came back. However, it was more cumbersome to be arranged in different places in the palace. If they didn't know the way, they would need someone to lead them every time.
After visiting several palaces, he finally arrived at where Ayla and the other two lived.
Mi'er saw herself at the door!
It can be said that the past twenty years have not left many marks on her. She looks exactly the same now as she did twenty years later, and even her loyalty to the family remains unchanged.
All in all, she is indeed a very good assistant.
"You're here Wizard Sean."
"Well, is Ms. Ayla in there?" Sean asked with a nod.
"Wait a moment, I'll go report to the Queen."
Mi'er probably knew that her identity was exposed, but she had no intention of hiding it. Moreover, it was precisely because her identity was confirmed that she had to demonstrate the majesty of the queen, so she still followed the reporting procedures.
It's a bit like the time when I was a prince...
