Chapter 305 - Episode Five
“It’s a nasty wind. There is a slight but deep evil spirit in it. Where in the world is it lurking? ……”
As Mea and I were walking through the Fage territory, a familiar voice came from the heavens.
I turned my attention to the roofs of the surrounding buildings.
There was a woman sitting on the roof, staring at the sky.
She was wearing a solemn robe inscribed with magical formulas.
There was beauty in her profile, as if an artist had poured his life into perfecting it.
The way she looked up at the sky with a bit of melancholy could have been a piece of religious painting.
Except for the balding paint on the roof and the phantom beast, Nyarun in his arms.
A phantom beast is a rare magical beast.
Nyarun is a rare type of magic beast, and in addition to its lovely appearance, it is not very violent.
For this reason, they are very popular as pet magic beats.
However, Nyarun has been found in extremely few cases, and since they are good at moving at high speed by manipulating the wind, it takes a lot of effort to catch them.
Even if some adventurer catches one, the rich nobles will spend a lot of money to get their hands on one, so there is almost no chance for ordinary people to get their hands on one.
“I wonder where that God of Law got the money from. Did she get it from Peter?”
I muttered to myself as I looked at Kudor.
Peter is probably not too crazy about Kudor, who he tried to control and failed so hard that he ended up missing multiple lives.
If I were Kudor, I would definitely go to Peter to ask for money in this situation.
“Hmmmm …… as expected it’s not true, isn’t it?”
Mea replies with a bitter smile.
In case you’re wondering, Peter is generous to me as well, probably because of his guilt.
Even now, after the commotion, I asked Peter for a special permit for the use of magic and alchemy experiments, and he promised to return it to me through a messenger.
However, if Peter was moving as fast as he could, his messenger should have come to us by now, but his messenger has not shown up yet.
I’m sure he’s not taking the time to get permission from the royal family or the church after talking so much about it.
If the situation continues, I will take Kudor to pay a visit to Peter.
This isn’t the first time I’ve seen Kudor since the battle in the ancient cathedral.
Kudor has been flying all over Dinrat Kingdom, using the fage territory as his base.
Even in the fage territory, she was accepted as a beautiful traveling adventurer.
I often see her carrying what seems to be a souvenir from some other territory.
As a side note, the collector, who usually claims to be able to see people’s auras, was completely intimidated when he saw Kudor.
The collector, who usually hates me, said, “What kind of monster is that? Did you bring him here?” asked me repeatedly in a frightened manner.
According to Altamir, the aura that the collector sees is “an extension of the ability to infer the character of a person by applying experience from their words and actions.
I have many questions for Kudor.
Why did he react to Mea, what does it indicate about the coming disaster, and what exactly does she want me to do?
And where was the talk of giving me the “Staff of Judgment of Sephiroth” and the “Ravenous Dragon’s Magic Organ” as a gift for breaking through the trial?
However, even if we ask her something, she almost never takes us seriously.
They just say, “You’ll understand when the time comes”, or “I’ll tell you when the time comes”.
Every time I see her, she says, “You’ll have to work for the amount of my magic power that was depleted”, but I never receive any specific instructions or orders.
Kudor, sitting on the roof, looks down at me.
“Look who it is, it’s Abel and the girl who made me waste my magic power that I had been saving up for the coming disaster.”
This god might be the type to hold a grudge.
I stepped in front of Mea.
Before, Kudor has tried to kill Mea.
Even from Mea, It’s not a person you want to face.
“Abel. It seems that the time will come when I will need your help. In the meantime, sharpen your magic skills to the fullest.”
Kudor tells me.
Kudor, who had not spoken about the coming disaster until now, finally spoke up.
Now she might be able to answer some of our questions.
“Is …… the other party the four pillars of the four great creator gods?”
This is the only person I can think of that would make Kudor feel even a little threatened.
In fact, it is certain that the four major powers, led by the Riveras Kingdom, are showing disturbing movements.
After a moment of silence, Kudor opened her mouth.
“I have destroyed the four great creator gods. But they are all monsters, too. It would not be surprising if they were lurking around, deceiving me. That’s why I had to keep my power, because there is no guarantee that they are gone.”
In addition to being an overly powerful high-ranking spirit, Kudor is also an artificial spirit that drains magic power just by existing and has an extremely low natural recovery rate for magic power.
The only way to deal with them would be to seal themselves up and wait for the enemy to turn tail.
“The only thing is, I don’t know who this enemy is either. But I do know that there is someone who is preparing to fight against me.”
Kudor then turns her attention to Mea, who stands behind me.
The …… ancient cathedral, Cudall Kudor clearly changed her policy when she saw Mea.
“The only thing I care about is where my adversaries are. No matter how cleverly they conceal it, there is no way that someone with a magical output comparable to that of Maharbo, the God of Fire, or Silfheim, the God of the sky, can escape my detection, but I can’t locate or identify them at all. If it were simply hiding in the end of the dimension or at a physical distance, I would lose sight of it, but if it were that far away, it would be difficult for it to return to this place in the first place.”
The names of Levi, the god of water, and Garuja, the god of earth, were omitted from the text.
She don’t even seem to be interested in the two lower four creator gods. I somehow felt uncomfortable.
I gulped and asked Kudor again.
“Why did you target Mea?”
“I can’t tell you that yet, since you’re not with me, but with that little girl.”
She had no intention of answering this question.
Mea grasped my hand tightly. I guess she’s worried about facing Kudor.
But there is still something I need to tell Kudor.
I tighten my mouth, take a deep breath, and calm myself down.
I see the anxiety in Mea’s eyes as she looks at me.
I nod vigorously and give her a strong smile.
The truth is, I’m scared, too.
But there are some things you can’t retreat from, even if the other party is the God of Law.
Right now, Kudor, who had always been deceitful before, is unusually eloquent.
The opportunity is now or never.
“I’ve thought about it a lot, but I still want the golden skull, the automatic magic activator that is said to be the greatest weapon of Priest Yohanan ……”
“…… I’ve spoken a little too much. I’m leaving this place again.”
A gust of wind blew.
In the blink of an eye, the figures of Kudor sitting on the roof and Nyarun on her lap had disappeared.
She got away ……
