While Thor was busy pulling people around, Gorsa, who had been away from the Principality of Kema for several years, finally set foot on this familiar land again.

After receiving Yula's letter before sighing, he decided to come back, but on the way back, Gorsa did not use witchcraft to hurry, nor did he take a convenient airship, but walked slowly and leisurely back from the far north alone, carrying a wooden staff that reached to his chest.

The tall wall of sighs blocked the cold snap from the north, and the Duchy of Kema had just entered spring when the temperature began to rise sharply.

And a person like Gorsa, who was covered in a wide gray cloak, was very abrupt.

From time to time, there are pedestrians on the side of the road who cast exploratory glances, but they don't come up to ask anything, and no one even talks.

A person who behaves strangely may have an eccentric personality, but they can also be a wizard.

Ordinary people don't want to have anything to do with wizards unless they have to.

Gorsa walked alone on the road, saying that it was more like an outing.

He is not in a hurry, some people are anxious for him.

On the second day after Gorsa entered the territory of Kema, he was greeted by a detachment of soldiers on the road.

The leader was a full-fledged wizard of the First Order, with an ornate carriage of four horses parked behind him.

"Lord Gorsa, Grand Duke Kira has sent us to pick you up."

Gorsa glanced at the wizard who greeted him and smiled, "Kira won't send a carriage to pick me up. Don't you know that I'm good at walking? ”

The wizard who greeted him hurriedly said courteously, "Lord Kira knows that you are in ...... body now The mood may not be good, but it is more comfortable to ride in our carriage. ”

Those who fail to be promoted will have a period of weakness, and some people will even directly enter a state of serious injury and on the verge of alienation. This period of weakness may last for a few months, or for some years.

In the wizard's opinion, although Gorsa did not see anything abnormal on the surface, his body must have been injured. So he said that the other party was in a bad mood and was still taking care of Gorsa's dignity.

"No," Gorsa waved casually, continuing to walk forward with his cane, "you're not as fast as I am. ”

The corner of the wizard's mouth twitched, and he said in his heart: "If you don't have witchcraft, you have to use your feet to hurry, and you have just walked to the Kema border after walking for two months, do we use such trouble to pick up people?" ”

But this is certainly not to be said. The wizard remembered what he had been told before he left, so he puffed up his chest a little and said, "Lord Gorsa, Grand Duke Kira asked me to remind you that some things are time-sensitive. ”

Gorsa suddenly raised his hand and pressed it on the other party's face, and the latter was immediately so frightened that he didn't even dare to move.

Gorsa's hand pressed down a little, and the latter's knees weakened, and he squatted down directly, and finally sat down on the ground.

By this time, Gorsa had already withdrawn his hand and wiped his palm on the cloak, as if he had touched something dirty.

He lowered his eyes, "Tell Yura that I'll go, don't worry." If her message is really time-sensitive, then she doesn't have to wait for me, she will come to me herself. So...... Don't disturb my walks. ”

The sorcerer sitting on the ground trembled.

Gorsa had been constricting his magic and spiritual power before, and from the outside, he looked like an ordinary person, which made him, who had never faced a third-order wizard directly, a little carried away, and unconsciously began to imitate the expression of the boss who told him this sentence.

But he didn't dare to let his mission end in failure.

Therefore, although there was no way to get up from the ground, he still asked in a trilling voice: "Gorsada, my lord, you, when are you going to the national capital?" ”

Gorsa stood still and asked a question half-back.

"Do you know why there is only one wizard on your team?"

The wizard lying on the ground was stunned.

"Because they're afraid of wasting it, huh......"

Gorsa chuckled and walked on.

The wizard who was thrown down thought blankly for a long time, until the soldiers behind him couldn't see Gorsa's figure, and when they came to help him, they didn't understand what it meant to be "afraid of waste".

One of the soldiers reminded him in a low voice, "Maybe the Grand Duke of Kira didn't think we'd make it back alive when he sent us out." ”

The wizard who was helped up immediately glared at him.

The wizard couldn't understand that it was normal if an ordinary soldier was pushed out as cannon fodder, but he was an official wizard, and there weren't many official wizards in the entire Principality of Kema!

How could Grand Duke Kira also use him as cannon fodder?!

Gorsa ignored the wizards and soldiers left behind and moved on.

And so he kept walking. When you feel tired, you can sit on a big rock on the side of the road and rest, and if you feel sleepy, you can also sleep peacefully by jumping on a small tree with new green shoots.

Along the way, you can eat as much as you want, and if you don't want to eat, you can directly absorb the magic around you to replenish your energy.

In this way, Gorsa staggered to a small village outside the city of King Kema, and as long as he crossed the moat, he would enter the royal city.

Most of the people in the small village are farmers, and they are turning the soil, but there are few people in the village.

Just as Gorsa was about to make his way through the village, a small brown branch suddenly popped out of the muddy country road.

It's like a sprout that sprouts in response to spring, but the growth rate is a little frighteningly fast.

The branches, which were no thicker than human fingers, grew to the thickness of a small arm and a meter tall in a few breaths, and then continued to fork and extend, turning into the shape of a small tree.

It's just that this little tree is bare, and there are no spores, and it doesn't seem to plan to sprout and grow leaves at all.

Gorsa paused, then stepped forward, stretched out his hand and "clicked" to break a branch directly, and held it up in front of him for a closer look.

"Well, the upside-down tree. So...... This is the root of the tree. ”

Gorsa lowered the roots, and then noticed that the bare tree in front of him had withered and disappeared at a faster rate.

Of course, Gorsa knew that the inverted tree was the treasure of Baidong College, and now that Baidong College was destroyed, the remaining personnel basically went their separate ways. The inverted tree enclosed itself on the site of Pak Dong College.

"Could it be that the upside-down tree woke up and started running around?"

You must know that Baidong College is not close to here.

"If it's true that the tree ran over on its own, then it should have recovered to the third order." The corners of Gorsa's mouth curled slightly, and the expression on his face finally changed slightly, and he stared at the small hole left in the ground due to the withered roots of the tree, and his eyes gradually lit up, "I finally saw something interesting!" ”

Gorsa didn't consider the possibility that it was another upside-down tree, which was even less likely than the upside-down tree that would run by itself.

Now, he had forgotten the invitation from Kira, or rather Yora, and was bent on seeing the inverted tree that could be restored to the third order without its keeper.

"It must have an interesting secret." Just as Gorsa was about to put her hand into the cave above ground, a piece of parchment cropped to the size of her thumb suddenly jumped out of the hole.

Gorsa immediately changed his probe to grasp, and immediately read the words on the parchment.

"Kira is imprisoned by Yura."
