Chapter 291: Nameless Island (Part I)
Lilith didn't expect that she just wanted to get some face back in front of Count Vigel, and what she said was actually valued by the other party.
I also asked myself to take my research to the Earl's Court to find him early tomorrow morning!!
What do you have to do your own research?
It's nothing more than watching a few more stories and piecing them together, and I've never studied them well...... Let yourself be shown at once, and still in front of Count Vigel.
Ah~
When I think about tomorrow, my heart jumps with nervousness, and I don't know what to do.
Lilith stayed in her room for almost an afternoon and did not go out, and finally her father came to call her to come out in person.
The Bristol family was not a nobleman, not a wealthy businessman, but a few generations ago he was the favorite leathermaker of the former Lord Francis of Tacoma, and later he wanted to learn and improve the family's culture when he became rich.
For a while, it was really good, even if it was not a nobleman, it was quite prestigious among the local wealthy families.
It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and after two generations, there was no drama...... Especially after the gradual rise of Oro City, the two major families of Morgan and Devara controlled almost the entire economy of the Oro region, and the other small families were either attached or mediocre.
Bristol falls into the latter category......
Lilith was lazily pulled out of the room by her father, and asked excitedly.
"I just heard that Lord Count Vigel went to your school, didn't you?"
"yes. Lilith replied.
"I've heard he'll probably come to the academy for some time, right?"
"I don't know, that's what he said. But I'm not sure if he's coming. Lilith remembered that the earl in front of her in the carriage had no aristocratic bearing.
I had the impression that the nobles should enjoy the love of the people, but Count Vigel felt like he was surrounded by people and was very troublesome!
"Come back! He'll be back. Don't forget, it's time for the Earls Court to select the Academy's talents this year...... Count Vigel is the first year of selection, and he will definitely preside over it himself, otherwise he wouldn't be coming to the academy today, daughter. This is a good opportunity, our Bristol family has not achieved much since we came to Oro City, and when we finally met the lord, I heard that the Earl of Vigel called you today. ”
"yes, he asked me to call a carriage for him today!"
Seeing her father's expectant expression, Lilith felt that she would be happy if she told him that the Count would let her take her research with her tomorrow.
But at the moment, I really don't have much research, so I can only tell my father the whole thing.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the old man not only did not worry, but said very happily.
"Great, great! I've been complaining about the use of those manuscripts and diaries that your grandfather left back then, and now it's just the right time to use them! Go to the study and look for it...... It's the research that your grandfather left behind, you should go through it, maybe there will be something like that. ”
"Ah?!!h
"What are you doing in a daze, go~"
"Oh~oh!"
Lilith went to the study at her father's urging.
..............................
Early the next morning,
In the Earl's Court, Sean got up early as usual and was eating breakfast, and by the way, he called a maid by the way.
"I'll ask a student to come over later, and you can prepare some refreshments and send them to the study...... Also, let Aslant remove those people from the door, and don't frighten others. ”
"Yes, sir. The maid agreed.
Sean had been thinking about this for a morning, and originally thought that the matter in the old city of Tacoma would be over, and then he could only rely on the female snitch to find out the news, but he didn't expect that there were still people who studied them in the city.
If you don't go to the academy in person, I'm afraid you won't be able to meet ......
Fortunately, there is no endless road.
I found someone who had studied those unknown races.
Anyway, the female snitch hasn't heard anything since she left for half a month, and it is estimated that she has not yet reached the Edak area.
Now the road to the valley of Adak has not been fully opened, and if you want to enter Adak, you can only bypass Mersin and take the sea route, and recently Sean has also let Morgan's family be responsible for trading with Mersin to buy a large number of sea goods to the northern front line to resell, and even the witches who cover the sky wings have used it, so that they can use magic to refrigerate the sea goods and fly to the front line.
In this way, the lack of money can be alleviated, and the stress of food scarcity can be replenished.
The only uncertain Northern War is also known through dreams that reinforcements have joined, and in recent days, the news has gradually spread, saying that the Sun King from the depths of Edak has sent troops to rescue, and now he has fought with the Kates.
This is undoubtedly the most encouraging news for the fighters on the front line......
Rumors continue to circulate that the Imperial soldiers are preparing for a major counteroffensive, driving the Borgs back with reinforcements from the Sun King.
However, when things get to the point of getting better, Sean always sees some disturbing sights, and the thing he sees from Emperor Borg is certainly not a normal creature.
Maybe it has something to do with the followers of the Old Gods again.
After breakfast, Sean came back to his senses.
Rubbing his head......
How do these haunting believers of the ancient gods feel as if they are making trouble behind their backs every time!
The letter sent to Frelia has not yet been answered, and for now Sean can only find all the relevant knowledge about the cultists of the Old Gods on his own, and it would be great if the deep divers from half a year ago could find a breakthrough from them.
After breakfast, Sean went to work in the study as usual, and it was not until about noon that the servant came to report that Lilith had come......
Let the little girl come directly to his study, Sean also set up afternoon tea and prepared to listen carefully to how much Lilith has studied deep divers.
Watching the little girl timidly walk into her study, she kept her head in a state of [nervous!].
"You don't have to be nervous, come and sit...... Actually, the matter in Tacoma City has been bothering me for a long time, and if it weren't for the appearance of the rebels and the problems on the border, I would have been tempted to send someone to investigate this matter, and it just so happens that you have studied this aspect. Sean said bluntly.
"Actually, it's not a lot!"
Lilith held a page of a book in her hand and placed it across from Sean.
Turn around......
Pushed forward.
"I compiled some diaries from my grandfather's generation yesterday and read them occasionally when I was a kid...... Look, sir. ”
The pages opened a diary, some years old.
The pages are yellowed......
There is also a reduced map under the open page, which looks like a nautical chart.
"Look here, my lord, this is a small island in the eastern part of the sea, which used to have no name, but then it was submerged in the tide...... Nearby fishermen were once attracted by an undersea volcanic eruption, where large stone pillars with strange carvings were said to have risen. ”
