Hikari instantly perked up.
That's what they say, but I've had some new and different thoughts.
It is said that the Library of All Things contains all kinds of books in the world. If we consider this land as the pages of a book, could we consider the spells engraved on this land as the contents recorded in the book? If this idea really works, I only need to find the corresponding book in the library after returning to the Little Garden.
That would obviously be much faster than waiting for a great mage to travel back and forth and complete the recording and research of the overall structure of the spell.
Although there are some concerns, such as whether large-scale techniques like these might be misused after they are spread to the outside world, that is a matter for later when they are brought back.
"Ah, more than anything you've mentioned, I'm curious about who created this vast sea of flowers in this mountain range, and for what purpose." Annie stood in the flower field, one hand on her hip, the other shading her eyes, gazing into the distance. "This is just... way too big!"
Leaving aside the part in front, what we can see already stretches to the foot of the distant mountain peaks, forming a slightly upturned arc, which is about a hundred meters long.
The little fool thought for a moment, then suddenly looked startled: "Ah! Someone who would come to this mountain range, appear nearby, and have the ability to set up a spell to maintain such a large sea of flowers, and according to Mr. Yumi's description, is a very capable mage, it seems there can only be that person!"
Almost simultaneously, a certain thought came to mind: "It can only be that one, right?"
Annie complained, "Who are you talking about? Speak your mind instead of spouting riddles!"
I flicked my ear, lightly leaped to the ground, and inhaled the rich floral fragrance: "Who else could it be but a member of the team that Ai An said she was going to witness?"
“That’s the one who’s been praised as the Radiant Mage,” Hikari added with a smile.
Annie, looking puzzled, hesitated for two seconds before finally saying "Oh," and muttered indifferently, "I... I'm not interested in these kinds of fantasy stories, and I've never heard of them before."
"How can you call it a fantasy story! It's clearly a legendary tale!"
"I've never heard of that!"
“Hichart, you don’t need to argue with Annie about this. Maybe she lives in a remote area, which is why she’s a bit ignorant,” I teased deliberately.
As expected, Annie exploded: "You're the one who's out of touch! You're the one who's ignorant! The place I used to live in was incredibly luxurious! It had tall, sturdy city walls! It had a magnificent, dazzling hall! The pillars were all gilded, the bowls and cups were made of glass, and even the food was made from the finest ingredients!"
"I, this young lady, am a descendant of the esteemed Fatus family! I would never stoop to your level!"
I twitched my ear indifferently: "But when asked about the exact location of your hometown, you just can't point it out no matter what."
"...It's clear that your maps don't accurately record the location of each city!"
As she spoke, she turned away in a huff and headed deeper into the sea of flowers.
“Mr. Yumi, you’re teasing me too much,” Hikari complained softly, while holding me in her arms. “We can’t go back. Obviously, the person who’s most anxious is Anne herself, right?”
"I should apologize to Annie properly later."
"Well... I understand."
As we said this, we strolled into the sea of flowers.
"But could this really be the place set up by that legendary person?"
Hikari looked around, her clear eyes occasionally flashing with amazement: "Although I heard a lot about that legendary team's deeds at the Sacred Tree Barrier during the Sword Tournament, perhaps because the time that happened was too far removed from the present, and those things sounded so incredible, I always felt a strong sense of unreality."
"Radiant holy light magic, iridescent tornadoes, and the extreme ice hell capable of freezing a vast area... any of them sounds incredibly powerful..."
"Now that I suddenly see traces that may have been left by the other party, I suddenly become concerned."
"...There's no need to think so much."
I comforted them, saying, "Your current feeling is similar to how other mercenary groups feel when they hear about [Dawn's] deeds. It's just that because they don't know each other, and the stories spread have been constantly processed and exaggerated, they have an unbelievable sense of mystery and unreality. So when they see it with their own eyes, they constantly compare the other party's performance with the image they have built in their minds."
The little fool tilted his head: "Mr. Yumi is right."
"Instead of all that, why don't we just enjoy this beautiful scenery like Annie did?" I suggested. "Although we can have the fairies recreate it in the miniature garden when we go back, at least for now, this is a unique and beautiful sight, isn't it?"
The girl nodded vigorously, and her steps became lighter.
The biting cold wind surged from the direction of the mountain peaks, and when it passed through the permanent barrier, it turned into a gentle warm breeze, causing the lush flowers and plants to tremble slightly, conveying a vibrant sense of life.
"Hello--"
Annie, who was in the lead, seemed to have discovered something. After observing for a while, she turned around, waved, and shouted loudly, "Come here quickly! I've found something strange over here!"
