Song of the Water Demon (11)
So... Paglot already knows that I destroyed the Black Dragon Seal? No, from the perspective of the Pastor of Death, I should have defeated the conspiracy of Ajisha who attempted to betray the Lich King. For Paglot, instead of letting a young boy like Ajisha to annex the power of the Black Dragon and climb several levels, it is better to let the Black Dragon wake up from the seal. Even if the Black Dragon won't repay this favor, it is a hundred times better than being gained by Ajisha.
"What are the instructions of Lord Paglot?" Victor thought that Glott should have not noticed its rebellion. Although it was somewhat related to the black dragon seal, Victor, who knew Paglott's style of conduct, had it been revealed that if it had obtained the Book of the Dead, the Lich King would have come to him long ago, so he would have used only one messenger to get the matter.
"My lord, I will obey the priest's order."
Priest?
It seems that Paglott attaches importance to the seal of the black dragon as I imagined, and actually promoted me from a priest to a priest for this purpose...
While thinking about Vikto, he looked at the first messenger sent to him by the Lich King after he came to the middle world through the puppet corpse. Although his body was covered with a strong smell of blood and evil aura, he did not have the death aura that the undead mage should have, not at all.
This guy is not a necromancer at all!
After realizing that the other party was not a necromancer, Cerdo realized that what the surname "Hamel" represents - the imperial surname that Hyde is currently in power in the Empire. This human who looks like an ordinary person is actually the same as Vienne? He is in the position of a magician and has elves blood. Isn't he a little hungry when he finds such a person when he is in the middle world?
...
"As the priest guessed, it was indeed the royal family of Hydein Empire, but that was the old thing twenty years ago." Safin still smiled and the Buddha was discussing the person he is not himself.
"Is Hydein's method of excluding inheritance?" When he was a human, he heard about Hydein's strange inheritance method, which determines inheritance rights based on the purity of bloodline. The stronger the bloodline, the greater the chances of the person. On the contrary, the weaker the bloodline, the further away from the center of rights. In this way, Safin's motivation for surrendering to Paglott also surfaced. Power is really harmful, and even the mage can't escape the temptation...
Although he despised Safin's motivation, Victor was secretly happy, which showed that its existence was no longer as optional as in the past. Although the achievements currently achieved are far less than those of other eyeliners, they deserve the attention of the Lich King, at least it attracted Paglotte's attention.
Safin held the lich's slightly contemptuous expression in his eyes, neither angry nor upset, which further increased Victor's alertness. It expressed contempt and ignorance so explicitly, but this human was not affected at all and was difficult to deal with...
It seems that I am more at ease in the future. Maybe Paglott has already thought about sending such a difficult guy to serve as an assistant. Safen just made it clear on the street that he wanted to surrender to me. Alberrecht and other forces were distributed around him will soon know.
Hydein's former royal family and magician defected to the illegitimate son of a noble who had just become an earl...
Pagot, you are much more skilled than Ramde and others. Are you trying to test whether I have the ability to resolve the political crisis of mankind? Or are you reminding me that your eyeliner and means are far beyond the scope of my ability to deal with it?
"Have the priest not yet considered the first task to be assigned to me?" Safin's voice pulled Victor's thoughts back to the side of the puppet corpse.
"No, I've already thought about it. You can go to the extreme south city of Shakes in the empire." A plan was formed in Victor's mind, and he was worried that he couldn't escape. Since Paglott sent him a magician as his subordinate, why not take advantage of this rare opportunity. Let Safin join Klein and others to solve the problem of the temple. I used this time to solve the black dragon's seal.
"Shakes, the Seventh City?" Safen was polite to Victor in language and asked directly why he was sent to such a remote place.
"The mercenary group I formed took over the mission of the Water Temple. Although there was a priest from the temple as a guide, there was no mage in the team. It was too dangerous to break into the ancient temple. Although you had to help and be wronged, this task was secretly entrusted by the Emperor of the Empire. It can only succeed, not fail. Besides, I don't want to lose the newly cultivated mercenary group, the Saffen Magister, and those rash ghosts, please.
”
When he heard that he asked him to help the mercenary group, Safen agreed without frowning. After asking about the foothold of the mercenary Karen, he handed Viktor a magic crystal that had not been processed and inlaid. The magic power attached to it came from Safen, which was obviously used for contact.
The extra vacation was already deadline for the invitation. Victor hurried back to the academy and just sent Wood's body back to the large library. The body located in Shelder received a report from Klein that the new lord from Jingyao arrived.
Baron Navi was sent to Sheld by Fernandez on the first day of the meeting. The Royal Griffon he was riding in was far faster than ordinary pack birds. It took him less than two days to arrive at the city of Lelarion. Although he heard about the report on the Water City at the meeting, he could not hide his surprise when he saw Lelarion above the lake. He had witnessed the past appearance of Lelarion, which was difficult for him to accept what it would be like to have a city of such a size escaped from the lake by some force.
Led by several surviving officials, the Baron met the 'hero' who saved the city and the former lord who rebelled in the almost ruined lord's mansion.
Hawk and Reina seemed a little restrained. This was the first time they communicated with the nobles. Klein squatted in a corner without saying a word, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him. The negotiations and reports naturally fell on Dunan, who was the deputy commander, and Victor, who was disguised as a half-elf.
It has been the sixth day since the city of Leilalien rises. It has not been a drop of water in the past few days to a necromancer. In order to prevent Ajisha from escaping, Victor used a delusion technique on him during the five days of his mental withdrawal, so that the former lord, who had become a necromancer, was immersed in the memories of the past.
The water monsters living at the bottom of the lake have fish-like scales. They have no feet, only a big tail like a fish. They only use magic to transform into human legs when they go ashore. Therefore, the people of Sheld County also call water monsters mermaids. Because they not only have a face that can charm people, but also have a good voice.
