Chapter 29 The Council of Five

The meeting place with the Council of Five is the Great Hall at the top of the tower.

Transparent glass replaces the blue-gray stone walls, and the whole hall is so bright that you can overlook the artisan town from the window.

In this way, the five-member council advertises its transparency, meaning that everyone can see what they're doing.

The five members sat on one side of a long table in the center, and the party sat on the other.

"Hello, everybody. A middle-aged man sitting in the middle spoke, his blonde hair combed and shiny, a gold-plated monocle stuck in the muscle of his left eye.

"Hello, members of the Council of Five. Omoni asked politely back.

"Welcome to Artisan Town, Wizard of Omoni, I'm Asted, and I'm in charge of trade in the Council of Five. Astrid stood up and held out his hand to Omoni.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Asted. Omoni also stood up and shook his hand. To Omoni's delight, Astrid called him a wizard instead of a mage, a detail that made him feel favorable.

After shaking hands, Astrid did not sit down, but introduced him from left to right.

"This is Samiha, a dwarf, a veritable master blacksmith. ”

A muscular dwarf sat on a high chair and waved at Ormoni, "I'm sorry, I'd be happy to shake your hand if I could touch you." ”

"This beautiful lady is Evans, the undisputed genius who we ask when we have problems with inventions. ”

"Hello, wizard. The bright-faced Ivan looked interested in Omoni and stretched out her hand to Omoni with a shiny eye.

Omoni was uncomfortable with this particular gaze, and shook Ivans' hand.

"This sullen-looking old man is Boraz, who has spent his life looking for new forging materials and energy sources, and if you have materials you don't know, give them to him. ”

"This girl is Hestim. At the mention of this girl, Asted's face unconsciously showed a little respect. "She is the chosen spokesperson of the goddess of wisdom. ”

The adventure group that was originally looking for the deeds of the gods all looked at this girl.

The maiden, dressed in a white gown, put her hands over her chest, and whispered, "May the light of the goddess of wisdom bless you." ”

Astrid sat back in his seat, his eyes on the rest of the party, "I don't know how many ...... are left."

"I was about to introduce you to you. Omoni smiled and put his hand on little Paul's head.

"This is the only apprentice I have ever accepted, little Paul, and I have high hopes for him. ”

"This is Nana, the orphan of one of my deceased people, she is unfortunately blind in her eyes, if she has done anything wrong, please bear with me. ”

When it came to the remaining three, Omoni seemed much more casual.

"These three are Sanctuary warriors, companions on my adventures. β€œ

Under the deliberate guidance of Omoni, the attention of the five-member council was really more focused on little Paul and Nana.

Ivans, who was also a woman, looked at Nana with a little sympathy.

I don't know why, although such a gaze is reasonable, but Leo feels from the bottom of his heart that such a sympathetic gaze makes him a little annoyed.

Ivan tapped her head and said to Ormony, "I remember I used to design an aid for the blind, but it was too cost-effective to have a finished product, maybe it would help her feel better." β€œ

Leo was immediately overjoyed, and his discomfort with this woman immediately turned into gratitude.

Omoni was also quite surprised, and immediately smiled and said, "Thank you very much for your kindness. β€œ

Samiha was more interested in little Paul: "Is this little guy learning magic from you?"

"No, he's limited by age and body, he's exercising now, and he's still early to learn magic. Omoni rubbed little Paul's hair again. "But he's a qualified scout now. β€œ

Samiha smiled, flashed his strong arms, and said to little Paul, "Very good, although spellcaster is a noble and rare profession, having a strong body like mine is the foundation of everything. β€œ

"I think I have a few pieces of equipment for melee mages here, and although the functionality is a bit old, it's just right for a kid like you. β€œ

Omoni smiled and agreed for little Paul.

A few people at the table used Nana and Little Paul to get close to each other and get closer, but they forgot about Leo and the three of them.

And that's exactly what Isenas wants to see.

After showing enough goodwill, the five-member council felt that the time was ripe, and then it got to the point.

Astrid tightened his glasses, looked at Omoni, and said, "I wonder what type of spell you're good at?"

Omoni groaned for a moment and threw out an ability that was somewhat forgotten by everyone: "I am good at making predictions about the future, and I am extremely accurate in predicting small events in a short time span, and the increasing complexity of time span and time will greatly reduce the credibility of my predictions. β€œ

The Council of Five spoke in a low voice.

The power of prophecy is often only found in legends. After a professional steps into the legendary level, his breakthrough through the legend will be written into a legendary story by someone with a heart, and the importance of the legend is far above this, and the people related to the prophecy have all left a strong mark in history, which is enough to pass on the reputation for thousands of years.

Although the Council of Five is also a well-known organization between the two kingdoms, it is often the backdrop for the protagonist of the story in the lore. This can't help but make them think about it carefully.

Finally, it was Asgard who stepped forward: "We implore you to make a prophecy or two for us to evaluate the direction of our cooperation." β€œ

"Of course. β€œ

Omoni nodded, stretched out his finger and dotted it on the floor, a green light snaking along with Omoni's finger on the ground, and it didn't take long to outline an irregular pattern.

"What is this, a prophecy that needs to be cracked?" Samiha stood in his chair, curiously surveying the pattern on the ground.

Omoni smiled mysteriously, "Please allow me to hide this mystery first, once the prophecy is revealed, it will not be so shocking." β€œ

"My second prophecy is about Artisan Town, and I see a shadow hanging over Artisan Town for many years, and in the east, a flame is approaching Artisan Town, and the lingering shadow will be dispelled in the near future. β€œ

The Council of Five was shocked, Omoni's prophecy hit them right in the heart, the Artisan Town was indeed haunted by the events of more than twenty years ago, and although they hid it from the outside world, they were helpless about it. For a moment, Astrid even wondered if the wizard was the one who knew about the events of more than twenty years ago.

As the five of them were distracted, Samiha stumbled over the coffee cup that was sitting at hand, and the coffee ran down the table to the floor.

Omoni pointed to the floor, smiled, and said, "Look, the first prophecy has been fulfilled." β€œ

Everyone looked to the ground, and saw that the water stains on the coffee running down the tablecloth were just filled with the pattern that Omoni had just circled.

The five-member jury was shocked in their hearts, to be able to sit in this position, their knowledge and experience were extremely rich, and in their cognition, there was no way to do such a thing like magic.

Omoni leaned down again, and sketched a rectangular pattern in the water, in which the white coffee foam outlined a crescent.

"This is the moon in the tarot. Omoni whispered. "The moon in this position represents betrayal and enemies in the shadows. You have to be careful. β€œ

Isenus noticed that Asted's expression suddenly became heavy as Omoni spoke of betrayal.

The Council of Five was silent for a while, and then they discussed in a whisper again.

The Chosen One and Samiha seemed to be arguing over something, but in the end, Samiha, who was flushed, was defeated.

"I'm so sorry, Wizard Omoni. Astrid stood up, a look of regret on his face.

"Presumably you have also seen and known the case of the perfect combination of the spells of Master Pedido of the Labyrinth of Space and Master Catherly of the Arcane Torrent and Artisan Town, but for your spell, I'm sorry we can't even understand it, so I think it's hard for us to borrow your power. ”

Seeing that Omoni frowned, Astrid hurriedly added: "Of course, we are very grateful for the prophecy you made for us, and what Ivan and Samiha are going to give you will not be reduced, this is what we should give." ”

Omoni's brow furrowed.

The five-person council watched Leo and his party leave with regret, such a mysterious ability, but it could not be combined with magic props, which could not but be said to be a big pity.

Walking into the elevator, Leo patted Omoni on the shoulder excitedly: "I really can't see it, Lao Mo, you still have the potential to be a god stick, I also believe you in this set of prophecies three times in a row, what's going on with that water stain, you used magic power, right?"

Omoni smiled wryly and rubbed his shoulders, ignoring Leo, who was overly excited, and asked about Isennus, who was thinking on the side.

"How's that, Isenus?

"More than you can imagine. Isenus nodded calmly. Not only did they weaken the influence of the three of us, but these prophecies succeeded in diverting their thinking. Judging by their performance, their focus is on you right now, and I can even imagine what they're going to do next. So there's an 80 percent chance that my plan will come true. ”

Leo and little Paul's curiosity was immediately piqued.

"When are you planning again?"

Isenus smiled faintly, "Aren't you curious about the fifteenth floor of the tower, let's go see what's inside tonight!"

On the top floor of the tower, after seeing off Omoni and his party, the Council of Five was still discussing in a low voice.

"Is this wizard's power really a prophecy?" Astrid confirmed to the Chosen Girl again.

"You can't be wrong. The Chosen Girl Hurstim nodded in conviction. "The goddess of wisdom also makes prophecies, and the prophecy techniques and forms used are the same as these three prophecies, and the truth and falsehood of these prophecies are not known in everyone's hearts?"

Hurstim gave Asgard a particularly serious look.

Asgard took off his glasses, rubbed his sore eye muscles, and said, "Indeed, whether it is the shadow that hangs over the town of Artisans or the prophecy of the tarot cards, this is in line with what we know, especially the tarot cards...... But I'm still having a hard time believing that we're about to be involved in a legend, and I'd rather believe that the wizard used some other means to get the information about Artisan Town to make these two alarmist predictions. ”

Facing the stubborn Asted, Hestim let out a long sigh and complied with his meaning: "Okay, then we will increase our surveillance of them in the past few days, and focus on this wizard."

"And what about the three Sanctuars?" asked Evans.

Asgard rubbed his brow, slowly recalling the scene of their meeting.

"These three people don't care about them, they don't seem to know much about this wizard, if this wizard has an important task, it is likely to be handed over to his little apprentice, and that blind girl, we also need to be vigilant. Increase the surveillance of these three people. β€œ

"If he's really okay, we'll talk about working with him. β€œ
