Chapter 172: Promotion (Medium)
Sean didn't tell anyone else about Koga's arrival, only Claude and his companion Igonia knew.
However, Igonia was seen by her brother Warren when she returned to Elenta, so Sean estimated that the new Earl Hamil should have known that he was coming, perhaps from the first day he came.
After all, this is the territory of the other side, and almost every ruler cultivates his own intelligence forces, and when he comes to Koga City, he often notices that he is being stared at, but at that time it was on the street...... Even ordinary people might be staring at themselves, so Sean doesn't care about that.
These days, I've been studying the book Igonia brought.
After watching a lot of similar wizarding organizations, Sean found that not only the Sun Crown, but also the descriptions of many wizarding organizations have a mysterious color, and they are still the kind of mystery that makes people want to explore.
For example, the place I walked through, the Tacoma area.
There are also many wizarding organizations there, including an organization called Night Forest, which has been recorded a few times, but every story makes Sean feel incredible.
It is recorded in the book that this wizarding group has few members, but its behavior is very strange...... It can often be found near small towns near swampy areas, giving the impression that the surrounding residents are always babbling and chanting words that people can't understand, and it is even rumored that hiding in the depths of the swamp is a gateway to another world.
Accounts like this are rarely described......
Maybe I don't dare to write it, or maybe I hear it.
However, after experiencing the events of the Immortals, Sean also became interested in these accidental and rumored stories.
Especially the stories that cannot be described, but which have always seduced the reader's curiosity, seem to be happening as if they are real......
[Thirty-four years ago, fishermen in Mersin, the southernmost country of Zambutar, salvaged a strange statue of an unknown material on the seashore, and some sorcerers said that it might represent another civilization that has long since perished...... However, time did not give much to know about him, and soon after obtaining the statue, the bearer fell into a frenzy, even to anyone who studied it, but in the end all the results were lost......]
Another example......
[Seventy-eight years ago, there was a bottomless black water pond somewhere in the southern continent, and at the beginning, fresh fish gushed out every day, and the nearby villagers made their lives rich by selling and eating fish, and the taste of the fish seemed to be as magical as making people crazy and loved...... Until one day the fish in the pond stopped appearing, and the villagers were so nostalgic for the smell that countless people were willing to jump into the black water...... No one resisted, and since then the pond has slowly disappeared, as is the end of all stories!]
Flip the page again.
This time it's the description of the 'Gate of Truth'.
[Seventy years ago, it happened on the western continent, a certain alchemist who was regarded as a madman by the locals has been obsessed with the study of the door of truth, trying to change the weak human in his mouth through various means, but unfortunately he is indeed too weak and even inferior to the average healthy person, and the alchemist is also his own title, until one day the neighbor saw that he had not appeared for a long time, so he mustered up the courage to knock on the other party's door, and when he entered, he found that the other party had fallen into a strange cloud of dust...... It's been a long time since ......]
[However, it is not this that is frightening, but when the person who handles the corpse opens his clothes...... The other person's body is full of potholes and has no internal organs...... Later, I heard that something like eye tissue was found in those fleshy holes, and what was even more special was that he seemed to be smiling when he was dying!]
Page by page......
Sean gradually felt that there really was a terrifying unknown world in this world, just like the Geheros he saw at the time and the giant octopus hand summoned by Westman, which makes people shudder just to think about it.
As if captivated by these stories, Sean sometimes looks at them for a whole day.
I can't suppress the excitement!] and impulsiveness!......
It wasn't until he was woken up by Claude that he came to his senses.
"Brother Sean, why have you been studying this book lately?
Subconsciously, he felt that something was wrong, but Claude had already run over and opened the book.
"What! These are the stories, I've heard many of them, what's so good...... It's as fake as death, but it's not as interesting as the bards. Claude looked at a few pages and found it uninteresting.
"Uh...... Don't you feel anything when you look at it?"
"What a feeling. The young man stared at himself with wide eyes.
There was nothing else going on above his head, it was completely different from what he had just looked.
"It's nothing, it's just curiosity. Sean said.
It's strange why I feel like I'm stuck in a story.
"Don't look at this, it's not interesting. Don't you think why Sister Igonia didn't come here today?" asked Claude suddenly.
Today......
Yes.
Sean hadn't noticed the little girl for a long time, and when she came before, she seemed to have noticed that she was concentrating on reading so she didn't bother, but today she didn't come directly.
"Shall we go to Erinta and see her?"
"It should be fine, at least there won't be any problems in Koga. "Things like robbery, raids, etc., rarely appear in the city that is now more strictly managed, and with the ability of the opponent's orderer level 4, ordinary people can't beat her.
But......
It's hard to say if it's anyone else.
As the two were talking, a call could be heard in the next hall.
It was not the call of the customer but the name directly, and even the title of 'Baron Vigel' could be heard in the middle.
Accompanied Claude to the store's vestibule, standing in the center were two heavily armed soldiers.
[, Human, Neutral], [, Human, Neutral].
"Who are you?"
"Oh, sorry. I'm sorry to disturb the Baron, we are members of Count Hammel's bodyguard, and this time I heard that Lord Baron has come to Koga City, so please go to the Earl's Court with you, Count Hammel has always wanted to talk to your Lord face-to-face. ”
This is probably the exact words of Ryan Hammel, and the two people in front of him are just doing things according to the rules......
Sure enough, Count Ham had known that he was coming, and he also knew that the Skovey store was his home base, so he came here to invite him this time.
"Big Brother Sean!" Claude beside him looked over.
"It's all right, Lord Earl, I haven't visited the new Earl yet. ”
It's the biggest aristocrat in the region, and I still have to go there after all.
