Chapter 24: Talking

My dad didn't even say that about me! After being reprimanded in a face-splitting, Enid felt very depressed, mature, Am I immature? If the ages on both sides are combined!Uh...... It doesn't seem to be that big, but anyway, in short, at this moment, Enid inexplicably just wants to refute the other party.

"Worldly power means nothing to mages, I'm only here to have a stable environment to study magic, what reason do I have to get involved in the rest of the conflict?"

"Worldly power is indeed meaningless to mages, but ...... For those fanatical believers in the north, this is not necessarily the case, faith is a kind of power, although you may not understand, although I may not really understand, but faith is really a power. ”

Obviously, a moment ago, he still looked angry, but in an instant, the old man's expression calmed down, and he began to answer his questions patiently, looking at the other party's performance, Enid's mood was a little complicated.

"So, you're saying they're coming...... Right?"

"In your eyes, I see hesitation, wavering......" The old man stared at the silver-haired girl's face with dim yellow eyes: "Luck? Speculation? You don't want to make a choice, you don't want to take responsibility, you have to wait until the situation is approaching to ......."

He shook his head: "I don't understand, why do you have such naïve thoughts? You have to understand that you are a mage, not a commoner who can only passively wait for the handouts of fate! If you are strong, you must choke the throat of fate!"

At this moment, Enid even forgot that she was still in awkwardness, and looked at each other in surprise.

This is not the kind of common saying that is close to the general effect, but the specific expression is similar to that of different peoples, but it is a coincidence that the classic quote is accurately said in the language of the Aaronic continent? In the native books, Enid has not seen the sage say this sentence, but there are still similar sentences. Moreover, because of the spread of the god culture, when talking about fate, ordinary people often use imagery related to those goddesses as metaphors.

However, the other party seemed to have misunderstood Enid's reaction, and the old man sighed and said in a slow tone: "I know, for your age, these words are still a little too harsh. But only those who are brave enough to face the challenge will be rewarded with the favor of Lady Luck. ”

Well, that one would say something here, Enid thought. But the old man didn't realize that the little girl's thinking circuit on the other side had completely run out of shape.

Because of a small accident, the silver-haired young girl who calmed down changed the topic back: "I want to ask, what god you have for the north...... What do you think?"

"I don't know, I don't know, I can't answer this question until I actually see Him......" Iger laughed, "My teacher has the same attitude, I guess, you think the same way, right? Prudence is a mage's virtue." ”

Do you remember that word at this point? Enid was noncommittal to the old man's words.

"However, according to the information that has been obtained, at least those magic ...... It all looks genuine. In Sophie, we found some ignorant children and guided them to believe in the so-called gods, but no one ...... Get a response. As for the spies who went north to join the Church...... Either they are found and executed, or, they are completely thrown into the arms of the other party......"

Tsk, Enid smacked her lips.

"It's a headache, isn't it?" the old man smiled wryly: "These gods...... There's always a way to make trouble for us mages. ”

Are you playing the mage identity card again? Enid rightfully ignored that.

"So, what do you think......" The little girl stared at each other and asked word by word, "Does that god who suddenly appeared have anything to do with the current situation in our continent?"

Enid's words sounded endless, so the old man also showed a blank expression: "What do you mean?"

"Nothing. Enid shook her head: "Okay, so now what I want to know is, what does Sophie think of the North, and will they sit back and watch Thea be invaded and annexed?"

It seems that he ...... I can't really understand the abnormality of our continent, Enid thought, after all, the other party is not like herself, so, that celebrity proverb, is it really just a coincidence?

Still wondering about the little girl's previous question, the old man replied for a while: "Of course not, if they can, of course they hope to end everything on the land of Thea, if the war is burned to Sophie......"

The little girl chuckled, "So you want me to be on the side of the royal party, right......? Isn't that so?"

Without waiting for the old man's answer, the little girl walked straight to the terrace on the third floor and looked at the bright scenery outside: "Then what is your offer?"

The silence lasted for a long time, and after a while, the old man's voice finally came from behind.

"His Excellency Stone assures that whatever the outcome of this war, he will guarantee the independence and integrity of the House of Noble, and if even Thea cannot hold it, then ...... The Noble family will be able to acquire a plot of land in Sophion that is no less than the size of their current domain. ”

The little girl turned her head and smiled with a cute, age-appropriate innocent smile: "It seems that you haven't been waiting here for nothing these days." ”

The old man on the rattan chair finally felt a strong sense of frustration, no longer the previous pretentious performance, he smiled bitterly: "It's great that a young ~ mage like Your Excellency can still care about and care about things......"

......

"The silver-haired tyrant is out!" said this as Enid stepped out of the gate of the Magic Tower, and then the crowd in the outer circle of the clearing dispersed, as if some village had been attacked by a dragon.

The little girl's brow jumped, and she set out on her way home with a strange feeling.

Egg's precedent gesture didn't give Enid much of a sense of accomplishment, but it was one thing he said that made the little girl more concerned.

That's Kuroshio.

The term Kuroshio, Enid is no stranger to Ollie...... In Patian's lesson, he mentions that it is a peculiar phenomenon that occurs in Sophion, and at irregular intervals, several strange, distorted areas appear in an unspecified part of Sophion's territory.

Patty didn't elaborate on how weird and twisted it was, but he mentioned that in this area, all magic and magic items would be disabled, and in addition, all kinds of monsters would appear, and Sophie had spent a lot of energy to eliminate this untimely, ineradicable potential threat, and thanks to it, many of Thea's adventurers had found work......

In Egger's mouth, because of the threat of the Kuroshio, Sophie will not be able to draw up enough military force to support Thea until June next year...... What Enid needs to do is to help the royal party gather the power of the fiefdom nobles as much as possible without causing hostility from the north and at the same time, without causing a large-scale civil war in Thea.

Let's not mention the domestic affairs, what is the black tide? Walking in the alleys of the royal capital, Enid felt when he had no return.

Let a legendary mage be helpless for hundreds of years, a disaster that cannot be completely eradicated...... No matter how you think about it, it has something to do with the huge shadow hanging over this continent.

PS: Things in this world, from the perspective you want, can always make sense...... Egger is just from the perspective of his own interests, choosing the right big truth and good words, so his various mouths and cannons, just take a look.
