Chapter 19: On the eve of departure
Originally, Denilos planned to find a new treasure, but Chu Ge refused.
Although he was looking forward to that kind of thing, Chu Ge didn't want any accidents to happen to the old priest.
Based on his experience since his rebirth, he can probably already surmise what happened during this period of time in his previous life:
When Denilos returned, in order to better play the effect of the World Tree, he broke part of the seal in advance.
The old priest has been waiting since returning to the temple, and he himself has not returned because he was caught by the thieves' guild, and while the old priest waited, the seal broke by itself, and the disguise inside was exposed.
After discovering this, Denilos was furious and anxious, and before his apprentice could find out that he had returned, he set off again, immediately set off in search of a new treasure, and then disappeared without a trace.
If Denilos goes out again this time like in his previous life, I'm afraid he will repeat the mistakes of the past.
Until now, Chu Ge didn't know what Dinilos had experienced, but he only vaguely knew a little broken information.
"Let's not talk about that, you can open that scroll and take a look."
Looking at Chu Ge, who insisted on not letting him go, Dinilos showed a wry smile, but his eyes were full of relief, he put the amber fragment on the table, and motioned Chu Ge to open the old scroll,
"This gift will surely not disappoint you again."
Are you sure? But judging from Noah's description, it seems to be very unreliable.
The description of this [old testimony] evaluation and explanation does not look useful no matter how you look at it, but since the teacher has sworn it......
Chu Ge carefully opened the scroll little by little, and the parchment was so fragile that it seemed to be about to crack immediately.
……
It only took half a minute for him to read the contents of the scroll, to the effect that a man named Heinrich made a bet with Dinillos, and in the end the other party lost, and that's it.
"So, does this have anything to do with me?"
Although he understood the meaning on the scroll, Chu Ge still didn't understand what the old priest wanted to express.
Denilos explains:
"You should be familiar with the famous national academy in the Arkaya Empire, this name Heinrich is the current president of the national college."
"We once made a bet, and in the end I won, but because the bet was difficult to achieve, Heinrich's bastard cheekily broke the contract, and as a person, he will probably be haunted by this matter in his heart, and this is a good opportunity for him to pay it back."
"I remember that the National Academy will soon open for new students, and although I cannot teach you the power of the Light, there will always be a suitable teacher for you, so I have decided to let you go to Greenland and participate in this year's intake as a freshman."
"With your current strength, it may be a little difficult to successfully obtain the qualification, and even if you succeed in entering, it should be difficult to get enough resources in a short period of time, so when you enroll, find an opportunity to hand over this scroll to Heinrich."
"I have left a little fragment of consciousness on this scroll, and the specific situation and conditions have been described very clearly in the fragment of consciousness, as long as the old guy still wants to make a face, he will not refuse my request this time."
Looking at Denilos' confident face, Chu Ge couldn't help but be a little curious, he still knew a little about Heinrich, he had dealt with him a few times in his previous life, and even fought with him when he invaded the National Academy.
The stubborn and serious character of the other party left a very deep impression on his mind, and he was curious about what the bet between the two was, and it was so harsh that it could make that kind of stereotypical guy lose his trust.
It's a pity that the bottom part of the scroll has been torn off, and that is probably the last bit of face that Denelos left for Heinrich.
"Thank you, teacher."
Chu Ge didn't show any hypocrisy, he accepted the gift directly, and then continued to Denelos,
"Actually, I'm here to bid farewell to the teacher today, in fact, even if you don't give me this scroll, I already have plans to go to the royal capital."
This sentence made Denelos stunned, but then the old priest patted his forehead and sighed:
"It seems that you have changed a lot, although you often had this kind of thought in the past, but always because you can't let go of your companions, so there has been no actual action, this time I finally made up my mind, I was still thinking about how to persuade you to go to the royal capital."
After hearing Denilos' words, Chu Ge was silent for a second or two before smiling and saying:
"It wasn't a sudden decision, because everyone already had their own place to go, and it would be lonely if I was left alone in Brewell."
*******
After spending two days with various preparations, Chu Ge packed his bags and set out on his way to Silva.
Because East County is thousands of miles away from Silva County, if you want to go there, you must take the magic energy train, and in a remote area like Brewell, there is definitely no popular such a high-end means of transportation, so Chu Ge needs to go to Silva City first before he can successfully take the magic energy train.
Before leaving, he came to the Skylark Pavilion again, where several people were waiting for him.
Because of the early days, there was no business in the tavern, and it was empty, except for the three women around the table by the window on the left.
Karina, Yuu, and a woman Chu Ge hadn't met.
"Yo! Little brother, this way, this way! ”
The strange woman looked older than You, but it was unknown how old Chu Ge was.
Her facial features are somewhat similar to You's, both have blue hair and blue eyes, but her face is a little more mature than You's, and her body curves are more attractive than You's.
She is probably the older sister who teaches at the National College.
At this moment, she was waving to Chu Ge with an enthusiastic face, signaling Chu Ge to hurry over.
Chu Ge walked over and said with a smile:
"You should be Yu's sister, Miss Xia Lei, when we first met, my name is Ino, and I am a good friend of Yu and Karina."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Karina and asked with concern,
"It looks like you're recovering well, and you're fine."
From her countenance, Karina seemed to have fully recovered, but the former enthusiasm seemed to be gone, and she replied:
"Well...... Being able to eat, sleep, and move should be considered a complete recovery. ”
Although it was extremely faint, Chu Ge could indeed feel the sadness hidden in Karina's words.
