Chapter 218.
The morning of the name at the beginning of dawn, the alleyway where the gin was dragged in was lonely.” Is this the place, Your Highness Jung Ji-hoon?” “Well, good timing.”
I was relieved at the look of the intact top floor. It seems like it hasn’t been discovered yet, stealing a piece for Winter.
“It was hard to get here. I’ve got something to look at, so don’t go back and look at it.” “Yeah? Uh, how come I’m alone…! Gas, I’ll wait for you!” “What, or.”
Then I’ll be fine. No need to shamefully beg Pitt to give you a ride. That was for knocking on the old door painted with a white rabbit pattern, when I just climbed a staircase.” That, but it’s a bit strange for His Royal Highness Jung Ji Xun …… building, isn’t it?” Gene timidly grabbed me.” What?”
“It’s like saying that mana will explode, and I feel a powerful magic power in the building …… Ah, feel it?”
“Yes? In that case, it seems that I felt something.”
Of course, everything was felt. But his incomprehensible words, I don’t think it’s a big deal.” This is the top floor of a wizard’s operation, is it natural to feel magic?” Climbing the rest of the stairs, I quickly knocked on the door.” It’s me. In there?”
I left a moment’s gap and knocked once more.” I’m back. It’s urgent, open the door …….”
Tonley ……. It was instantaneous. With an eerie sound, the door opened feebly. Looking through that crack
It was a completely different memory from the last time I saw it.” …… what.”
Like a bomb had gone off, the office was in ruins. Collapsed ceilings, pillars, and walls. All that was left was blackened wreckage, no more buildings to be seen, as if they were abandoned. Did you come to the wrong place?
Momentarily dazed, I stepped back and descended a flight of stairs. But the buildings were the same as seen outside.
“What the hell is this ……”
At that time, he looked alternately at the outer wall of the building and inside the door with a blank face.” Tea, it seems to be a type of illusion magic.” Gene in the back pretended to know with a stutter.” Illusion magic?”
“Yes. Makes other people look like they’re still fine.” There was something ominous and creepy about his words. No way, has Iben already been here?
I hurried through the door again. Gene called out to me from behind, but I didn’t mind. What I saw from the outside was different from the obvious, and my heart sank when I saw the inside.” Hey!”
I ran around the ground, looking for the collapsed wreckage. Powerful magician he couldn’t have been Ito Locke Void ಔ.
But in other words, it’s impossible for the top that operates with magic to just suddenly fall down overnight. It’s not a normal thing.
So how did …… Iben take Emilie and the children hostage?” Suddenly losing his spirit, a missed sense of crisis burrowed into his brain. Obviously know, only escape home ah, was evacuated to a safe house …….” Hey! Marquis! Marquis, where are you!” Addressing the Lord is getting heavier and heavier.” Here ah, seems no one!”
Running frantically among the wreckage, Gene, who couldn’t see me looking for shelter, shouted. Wasn’t it enchanted, he was holding the cane with the small orb of light hanging from it.
“…… corpses too?”
I asked him gruffly. My words bent the cane again and he shook his head slowly.
“There doesn’t seem to be anything.”
“Ha……”
That was a relief. If he’d been robbed of the piece, he’d be a little pissed, but he didn’t want to be found as a corpse by Iben.
“Should I go even if it’s a Belldandy afterthought?” At that moment, in bewilderment, looking around the collapsed office again, agonizing.
“But, Your Highness, the magic here is unusual.” Gene subdued with a timid voice.
“It looks too dangerous, let’s just go back ……”
I don’t know what kind of magic the witches are feeling, but it’s a waste of effort if they don’t escape anyway.
“Yeah. Don’t go back …….”
Nodding, I was about to follow Gene. Suddenly, he realized that the mirror wand was vibrating horribly in his hand.
“What ……”
Unintentionally lifting his eyes, the ornate hand mirror on top of the rod emitted a white light that illuminated on the wreckage of the collapsed inner wall. The light spilling from the mirror drew long, straight angles in midair.
“That’s …….”
It looked like a door. I instinctively noticed that it was the secret passage, hidden behind the wall. As if to enter, white light began to pour out of the fully painted door frame.
“What are you doing where you are if you’re not coming out?”
Gene, who had already slipped through the door, asked if I was coming out.
“Let’s get you back to the Duke first. I’m going to be here for a while.”
“Yeah? You said there was something else to see here …….”
A short order, and he looked around me with a strange expression. It seemed like he couldn’t see a ‘door’ as dazzling as this in his eyes.
“I’ll confirm the demons and go back immediately.” Gene’s face turned pale all of a sudden.
“Please, Your Highness the Duchess ……. I’ll be killed if His Royal Highness says he knows …….”
I don’t know what you’re talking about, but for the sake of the wizard who was about to cry, I painfully suggested a method.
“Then hook me up with a tracking spell.”
“Then at least His Highness won’t kill you until you can’t track me down.”
“I… Really?”
“Uh-huh. There’s no time to carve.”
“The back of my hand will sting a little.”
Fortunately, the method I suggested was probably okay, and Gene nodded quickly and waved his wand. After a while, like he said, with a fiery sensation, a small golden-colored pattern of magic arrays was carved into the back of his hand.
“Is it over? Don’t you go any further.”
“Please come back before His Highness knows ……”
Gene sobbed until the end, then returned to moving magic. I make sure he’s completely gone, then turn around. The door that still appeared in mid-air glowed brightly, waiting for me.
I glanced at the top of the mirrored wand I was holding. Looking blankly at the hovering white letters from moments ago, he suddenly chants quietly like a sigh.” ……viral Trio, par tor senior.”
Like a mad mantra. The thought of sending Jane to gloat went blank.
When I opened my eyes again, I was standing tall on a tall staircase.
Stunned, I looked around. It was a place that was not unfamiliar. A vast space erected by huge pillars.
“Uh ……”
The floor was piled up under the stairs, and beyond that, there were skeletons, I think.
“Ancient Larella’s tomb.”
Memories of the location flashed through my mind. It wasn’t that long ago that I found The Mirror of Truth, and came with Callisto.
I thought I’d entered a secret space. Suddenly why are you here?
It came time to look around the silent space with my eyes. Suddenly that distant conspicuous object caught the eye.
A frame large enough to take up one wall of the large place. There, unknown light flickered intermittently. It must be a real mirror.
“What? It must have been broken then …….”
The self-talk leaked out. After giving me a shameful stick, how come the mirror that didn’t break into powder was intact again.
The mirror stick held at the time vibrated again. It was like resonating in the mirror of the glowing truth.
I moved my feet slowly as if drawn to it. Caught off guard.
Ashes were kicked at my feet, not minding how much they were trampled and walked.
In front of the approaching mirror, I suddenly saw something strange. Instead of ashes filling the floor, something red.
One step, one step, the closer you get, the clearer it becomes. Knowing the true identity of the red thing, I stopped in my tracks. It was the giant magic formation that burned red.
Among them, the one who collapsed helplessly like an off-string doll was who.
Tada, Tada″The sound of smoke and fire bouncing off the ground rang out in a low tone. I doubt the eyes. A flame rising like a star. Beneath it limbs bound and burning helplessly.
“From …… now …… on?”
