Chapter 219: The Man of Laxis

There are not many rooms in the Traveler's House, the largest one is at the left end, and the thick window guards are halfway open, allowing the room to let in a faint amount of sunlight.

John sat on the bed on a pillow stuffed with pigeon feathers, scooping up goat's milk, cereal, and porridge made from minced lamb with a wooden spoon.

“...... It turns out that Mr. Plante said such an excessive thing. John smiled wryly.

Shortly after Carlo called Ivan out after returning from Angel's room, Aisha, who had been staying by John's side, suddenly opened his eyes wide, shouted "Oh no, I'll go out and have a look" and ran out. John didn't know what was going on outside, the two children came back with gloomy faces, and Carlo didn't come back.

Aisha, who was sitting in the chair opposite, immediately pursed her mouth.

"That's right! He actually took Ivan for a liar! Ivan didn't lie to him at all!" Esia's expression was as if she had been wronged, and her slightly flushed cheeks bulged like bread.

"The person who violated the rules is actually me, I ran to Takamo Town without permission, why didn't he talk about me!"

"Uh......"

Ivan glanced at her a little embarrassed, thinking to himself, Aisha is not an executor after all.

In order not to worry John, they did not tell John about the fight between Ivan and Carlo, John only knew that Carlo blamed Ivan for letting go of the wizards in Takamo Town and did not follow the plan, and suspected that he was a subordinate of Laxis Flotica, and deceived others with Serin, which made Ivan feel terrible.

The situation in the town of Takamo...... How could it be possible to go according to the plan!

"Well, do you know Master Laxis?" John swallowed a mouthful of porridge and looked thoughtfully at the faces of the two children. Aisha was stunned for a moment, pondered for a moment, and nodded wryly.

"Well, we've met. She said.

At the end of last year, in order to find clues to save their lives, Ivan, Aisha and Xiulin followed the merchant father and son Kenneth and Marven to the Kingdom of Fatland. However, the legendary Glass Tears is not the black ring mentioned by Aisha's father, who encountered a formidable enemy in the kingdom of Phatland, the first Witch of Sloth, Pendrera. At that time, the three of them also had an illegal sorcerer named Christina Martil Villiers in a bitter battle to stop Penderella from harming the Queen, when Laxis suddenly appeared in the gray sky and killed Penderella as if a god of judgment had descended.

Laxis came across as impersonal and arrogant, but Ashia remembered that she didn't take Christina with her in the end, and didn't punish her for not being a magician of the Alliance but using a magic weapon. Perhaps, Laxis is not as cold and heartless as it seems.

"But we didn't say anything at the time. Ivan muttered that they were only interceding for Christina. Therefore, it is considered that Laxis is a pawn arranged within the alliance, which is also too depressing.

"Hmm...... Mistress Laxis wasn't very welcoming......" John slowly thought about how to make him clear, "I, I haven't met her, but I've heard some rumors about her, and I think she's a pretty good person. ”

"Huh?" Ivan looked at John in confusion. What's the name of the evaluation?

"Overall...... She, she didn't agree with some of the members of the Caucus, and she didn't want people to misunderstand the meaning of the existence of the Magic Alliance...... What shall I say?"

It seemed that it was not easy to make the meaning clear, John casually stirred the porridge in the bowl, and the cold wind blew outside the window, and the porridge was about to be cold.

"Some people feel that the Magic Alliance is the ruler of the world, at least the ruler of the Paran Continent. John stopped stirring, lowered his voice, and his expression was slightly solemn, "The Magic Alliance holds the most powerful power in the Paran Continent, and it does not belong to any country, and of course, those countries are not affiliated with the Alliance of Magicians. The Wizard Alliance is a steward who manages the dangerous, uncontrollable power of new magical technology, with the purpose of ...... It is also to protect humanity and protect these countries. However, some people don't think so.

"Laxis doesn't want people to think of the Wizard Alliance as a ruler or a dictator, and she has done a lot to do so, and she wants the Alliance to work with all countries, as well as ...... Ancient scholars like sorcerers, and even, the Nome people in the north, the Kuiling people in the south, and the Yu people live in peace and seek a balanced order. In short, Laxis hopes that new magical technologies will bring happiness to people, not strife. ”

"That's good!" said Aisha's eyes lit up. John nodded approvingly, and he tilted the corners of his mouth and smiled a little.

"Uh, how do you say that, so...... It's not a bad thing to be treated as Lord Luxis's subordinate, hehe. Ah, Ivan, don't be angry, I'm not saying it's good that he misunderstood you like that......"

Realizing that his son's face was not very good-looking, John hurriedly waved his hand.

"Your friend was strange before, and when he came downstairs, he told us not to stay at this hotel. John looked up at Ivan, "Didn't he tell you why?"

“...... Didn't say. Ivan turned his head and deliberately didn't look into John's eyes.

Carlo said this as he grabbed him by the neck. "Do you know Her Highness Angel's plan?"

After Carlo walked away, Ivan suddenly remembered this sentence, and only felt like a piece of ice had slipped into his stomach. Angel...... Your Highness?

Is it another Highness?

He was right, Angel's girl was not ordinary, that girl lived here, there must be a special reason! Perhaps, they really hindered a certain "plan" of Her Royal Highness Angel. If he had known in advance, Ivan would not have chosen to stay in this hotel.

He really wanted to get out of Price City now.

"Carlo reminded me before...... One thing. ”

Ivan took a deep breath and looked up, "Because he reminded someone to calculate me, I ...... Well...... It's fine, so I figured there must be a reason why he told us not to stay here......"

"Oh?" said John, raising an eyebrow in surprise.

"Hmm...... That's what I thought, too. Aisha turned his face and said seriously, "Although Carlo is very strange today, however, Carlo is not a bad person, and there must be a reason why he said that." ”

"Well, let's move out, shall we?" John put down the unfinished porridge and struggled to sit up with his arms.

"No!" the two children said in unison.

"Mr. John, didn't Mr. Grand say that you had better stay in bed and not move for the past two days?" Essia stood up suddenly, and anxiously persuaded, "He just showed you the wound, and he has to change the dressing in the afternoon, at least don't go now!"

"I don't know if there are any more suitable hotels in the city. Ivan frowned, "Otherwise, I'll go out with Aisha tomorrow, I want to ...... There's no need to be in such a hurry. ”

If it was necessary to move out immediately, Carlo would not have left without convincing them. Her Royal Highness's great plan, it shouldn't matter if it is delayed for a day or two.

However, it would be better to visit Angel.

Now, when he thinks of Angel, Ivan feels furious in his heart, and he vaguely feels that Angel is also related to the Electrics family, but even if it is, there is no room for outsiders like them to interfere in the affairs of the royal family.

He only wanted to be able to leave smoothly.

Whether you want to admit it or not, neither he nor John are opponents of Sloth, and John is still injured, and it makes no sense to stay in the city.
