Chapter Ninety-Five: Investigation
It's hard to imagine that Romaniel's army could have been so strong.
From the beginning of the war, the Odin people seem to have been losing their lands constantly. Aside from the battles outside of the fortress of Fimir, the battles won by the Odin Empire were very few, and the situation at home became more and more sensitive.
In recent days, many math students have no intention of attending classes anymore, and they are all discussing things about the war. Odin's report of being beaten by Romaniel on the battlefield is more or less known to most of these students from noble backgrounds.
Although mages are almost always members of the Wizards' Alliance, it is impossible for them to completely abandon the world and pursue the ultimate in magic wholeheartedly. They also have their own families and relatives, and even their political affiliations.
Andrea, the head of the Royal Academy of Magic, is not from Odin, but rather from the south. Came to the North, only because of the decision of the Magical Association to serve together.
The Royal Academy of Magic of Odin was established by the Wizards Alliance and the Odin Royal Court, and the head of the academy is not a simple identity, in fact, the real status of this identity in the north is actually the head of the Northern Branch of the Mage Alliance.
So Andrea is not a spellcaster belonging to the Odin Empire.
Andrea doesn't care how the Odin Empire was beaten, as one of the heads of the Magic Council, casually participating in the war between the two countries will cause big problems, so even if she has a good relationship with the Odin Court, she can only watch from the sidelines.
However, what she was told today made her think differently.
"The chief spellcaster of the royal court has been killed?!"
Andrea was skeptical about the veracity of the news, knowing that the chief mage of the royal court was an eighth-level archmage, even if it was far less than her (the difference between the same ranks was sometimes even greater), but an eighth-level spellcaster was very difficult to kill.
"Yes, it's a bit strange to die."
The black shadow beside Andrea was obviously still a little unacceptable when she talked about it.
"It's a cursed magic ......"
"Is there a dark mage over there in Romaniel?"
"For now... It's not clear. ”
The black magician, a school of magic that cannot be recognized and accepted by orthodox mages, practices magic in a way that desecrates life and disrupts balance, and belongs to the kind of existence that everyone shouts at on the Irish card continent.
"Romaniel wouldn't have the guts to break the Magical Pact, would he?"
The Magic Convention clearly states that no force shall support and study black magic, and those who violate it will bear the consequences!
"What level of curse can actually kill an eighth-level archmage?"
This situation is undoubtedly the most unbelievable thing in Andrea's opinion, even curse magic cannot escape the fluctuations of the magic net, and it is difficult to use curse magic to kill a spellcaster of the level of the chief of the royal court.
"It seems necessary to investigate...... In addition, the matter was immediately reported to the old fellows of Guderis, so that they could also go about their work. ”
Andrea rubbed her forehead and continued, "Recently, I always felt that something special was going to happen, and I don't know if it has anything to do with this incident. ”
"It's been an eventful time."
When the black shadow finished sighing, it quickly turned into a shadow bird and disappeared into the room......
………
Andrea has to say that it was really a personal effort.
Luckily, though, she brought with her a coolie who could be commanded at will.
Behind her, Ivan, carrying a large bag on his back, was sweating profusely under the "caresses" of the sun.
"No, I said, why don't you put these broken things in the space ring?"
"No! Not so many whys, anyway, it just doesn't work! ”
It's not that Andrea can't explain why it's so troublesome, it's just that she doesn't think Ivan needs to know about it for the time being.
"Say nothing...... Just pull me to do such a hard thing, if it weren't for my trust in you, it's not an exaggeration to say that you deliberately made a whole person. ”
"Then you can treat me as a whole."
Ivan was speechless, this old witch was thorny everywhere when she spoke, and she was running to choke him anyway.
If you have it, you can't beat others anyway, and your body has done something to others to the present, so you can do it as a coolie.
To aside, in fact, every time he thinks about the events of that night, he always has a chill, and the reason is that he still doesn't believe Andrea's age.
He claims to be twenty-six years old and looks fourteen years old, even his physical development is the same! It's strange to anyone who looks at this! Hearing that some old monsters who have lived for a hundred years also like to freeze their faces when they were young, he thinks that Andrea is likely to be this kind of existence.
"What are you thinking?"
An unkind gaze made Ivan's body tremble.
"No, nothing... Huh..."
Ivan scoffed.
Andrea is sure that Ivan definitely didn't think of anything good, and probably arranged her in her heart again, but for the time being, she didn't want to worry about anything with this kid, anyway, there will be time in the future.
Collecting the remnants of magic left in the magic net is not a simple matter even for Andrea, and the murderer's methods are very clever, so I am afraid it is difficult to measure anything without the help of props.
And what will be used for a while, that is, the "thing" on Ivan's back is the existence of the space ring that cannot be put into it, and dimensional magic will have an irreversible impact on it, which is one of the reasons why teleportation is not taken.
In short, with the help of free labor, they finally arrived at Odin's royal court, and Andrea also informed the royal court in advance that they would come to investigate the "murder of the chief mage" today, and the royal court naturally agreed, after all, they were also eager to know the cause of the chief's death.
After all, it was too unconvincing for an eighth-level archmage to die under a "cursed magic".
The chief mage's room was still the same, and nothing had been touched since it was discovered that the mage had died.
Andrea kicked the rest out, leaving Ivan alone to help out in the room.
She looked at the guy next to her who was still dumbfounded, so she stretched out her leg and kicked Ivan.
"What are you doing?"
"This ...... This ......"
"What do you want to say?"
"Odin's chief mage is dead...... He's dead?! ”
"Nonsense, did you just react?"
Ivan still couldn't believe what was in front of him, the chief mage of the Odin Empire, eh, there are a number of strong people on the continent who actually died like this?
"What's so surprising about this, anyone will die, even legends."
Ivan calmed down and asked, "What should I do now?" ”
"Just help me defend it."
Andrea actually wanted to say, "You just stand there for the time being and don't move", but she felt that it was too ruthless, and it would not be good to hit this guy's confidence, after all, he would be needed for a while.
Andrea's staff looks a little taller than her, the overall color is purple, and just holding it in her hand has a special streamer spinning, its name is "Endless Secrets", which is a real legendary wand.
Ivan looked at Andrea's wand with envy, not knowing when he could use a legendary-level wand.
With the infusion of magic power, the aura of the "Endless Secret" also shone more and more, and it was only slightly closer, and the magic wind pressure gushing out of Andrea's body made Ivan a little breathless.
After a while, Andrea stopped emitting her magic, and the legendary wand "Endless Secrets" returned to calm.
"Did you find anything?"
"One thing, but the murderer's methods are very clever, and all I found were traces of little use."
"What then?"
"Don't worry, I've expected this situation for a long time, and you're here to do this." Andrea said with a smile.
"Wait... Wait, why didn't I know there was such a thing?! ”
Ivan took two steps back in fear, Andrea always had that look every time she used him as a guinea pig, so he turned around and opened the door and wanted to run.
But as soon as he opened the door, before he could rush out, two blades stacked on top of each other to stop him, and Ivan saw that there were two knights standing there outside the door blocking his escape route card.
"Don't struggle, I'll do my best to make it less painful."
"You're a demon! Let me out! I don't want to do anything weird! ”
"Coward!"
Andrea looked at Ivan with disdain.
"I don't need you, just help me untie what you carried."
"Really?"
"Hurry up!"
"Okay."
Ivan didn't mind Andrea's arrogant instructions, but opened his backpack excitedly, just don't let him take the risk anyway.
Andrea asked Ivan to carry a lot of magic materials in addition to some mysterious magic items.
Next, Andrea began to instruct Ivan to put the magic materials in their rightful places, and then began to carve out an extremely strange looking magic circle.
"Does this circle have any special purpose?"
"It's kind of a spirit summoning array."
"Oh, the Soul Summoning Array, huh? What did you say? Conjuring?! ”
"yes."
Andrea had no mood swings.
"Isn't this black magic?"
"Yes, it's an application of necromancy."
"Why can you say so lightly?"
Ivan really didn't know where to start complaining, if it was known that the chief of the Magic Council actually used necromancy, I don't know how much shock it would cause to the outside world!
It's just that she doesn't seem to be so conscious......
