THE RETURN OF THE WITCH
Guests To Mogrian House (1)
The great continent was divided into three countries.
Greenriver Empire, Coldwood Empire and Lo Republic.
All these countries operate an institution, called ‘pos communication’
It serves as ‘’ emergency calls for each country. These posts are held in certain places within a certain distance from others, to complement the magic of communication (which has a limited range) by conveying from post to post.
Thanks to the communication post, The Royal and The Ivory tower were able to receive reports before the afternoon.
“What do you think? Lord's tower? ”
Big capital Greenriver, ‘Greenriverdium.’
Where the most noble governs the country.
At the royal office, ‘Terry Greenriver’ asked.
“Nothing is certain, Your Grace.”
A white-bearded old man spoke doubtfully.
The man is the ruler of Ivory tower tower, 5th archmage cla.s.s, ‘Habert.’
“But,”
“But?”
The middle-aged emperor glanced at his eyes with interest.
“In the history of humman, there are only a few witches who made it to the 5th clone. Fortunately, this litte old man became one of them. ”
“Stop bragging. Do you think I wouldn't know that? ”
“At first, mana is the energy that flows with blood. When you can control it, the mage path begins. Step by step, with the help of spells, you can learn how to stimulate which brain, then ultimately how to make magic. In most cases it is taught by the academy. I'm not an exception, nor are the other witches. ”
“Contiune.”
“However, the boy said he woke her up on his own, without help. Furthermore, the report said, He can perform cla 1 magic smoothly. Exactly like, ‘First magician.’ ”
Long ago,
The first witch who had no one to teach her magic.
He must have found his own way.
How to manage mana, and also, perform magic.
A legend among all the witches.
“The first witch? What do you mean dragon? ”
“The existence of dragons is just an illusion. However, we know there was a witch first. There must have been a beginning of magic so it has worked until now. ”
The Emperor nodded when he agreed.
The tower master continued to speak.
“Using common sense, consider it a false report makes sense …….. But it has to be true. The Witch is a wise man. ”
“There is no reason he dared to make a false report.”
This time, the tower lord was silent.
He disagreed, but both disagreed.
“So it must be true.”
“Nothing confirmed.”
“Yeah, then let's assume it's true.”
Due to the persistence of the emperor, the tower lord laughed bitterly.
“ONLY IF, the report is very true, then ...”
“Then?”
“It's true that the boy has extraordinarily dangerous talent, that's my answer.”
“Hmm ..”
The Emperor began to think while tapping his finger on the throne.
He did not care whether the talent was right or not.
He's already a. Assume it is true.
“Crown prince, are you there?”
“Yes, dad, waiting for next instruction.”
“Please enter.”
The door opens, and the crown prince, ‘Hayden Greenriver’, walks into the office.
Her good appearance with golden hair, inherited by noble blood, was unimpressive.
“I'm ready to serve you.”
“Good. Prince, sorry about that, made you wait outside for a while. ”
“I'm fine with that. How can I serve? ”
The crown prince asked in a hurry.
Not because it was an urgent situation, but his own impatience.
“When was the last time you went outside the palace?”
“Iya? Uh .... it .. uh .. ”.
“Isn't that an inspection for a big lean year?
“I, that's right, dad!”
“It has been five years aleady. ”
After the emperor realized the flow of time not long, he continued the conversation.
“I want you to go outside of that place for the first time in 5 years.”
“…. You mean traveling outside? ”
“I will lend you all the royal knights, three hundred imperial soldiers and three 3rd magicians, quickly move to Mogrian province, and bring back the boy named Ian Page.”
“I ... Page Page?”
Looks like the crown prince has never heard of Ian Page.
A name that everyone has heard everywhere.
“Please don't tell me you haven't heard his name.”
“I .. I'm sorry, dad!”
“It's nothing to apologize ...* sigh*forget it. It might endanger your life. I better ask the other prince. ”
“T, No dad! Trust me, let me do this mission !. ”
The crown prince reacted sensitively when he heard the word ‘other prince.’
His attitude has changed dramatically.
“I guarantee you to complete this mission with my best efforts!”
“Ha ha.”
By watching the crown prince move so easily, the emperor felt bitter.
His intention.
But..
“She's too easy to see.”
He still needed to learn many things to lead the empire later.
Every part of him did not satisfy the emperor.
Not in the eyes of a father, but in the eyes of an emperor.
Of course, he did not express this concern to the crown prince.
For now all he could do was love the son as his father, not the emperor.
Support her child as much as she can.
For the most part, he needed talented alegiants, who could cover his short side.
Gifted, who could serve him long ago.
“He better make the boy a faithful monk.”
It's hard to make someone loyal to an adult.
Because they chose their master.
For example, the ruler of the tower had chosen the fifth prince.
That's why the beggar tried to send the crown prince.
If he was unable to have the gems carved, then he better take out the raw gemstones instead.
“I better teach him before he goes.”
The emperor ordered to the crown prince after a long thought.
“Approved. Now go back and get ready for the mission. Traveling to the north side will be a long journey. ”
There was silence after the crown prince left the office.
“Then, if you excuse me first, I'm better now.”
It was the tower lord who broke the silence.
“Why don't you stay a little longer?”
“As you know, mages hate traveling. If I don't start persuading them from now on, it might be difficult to arrange three witches on a mission, before the crown prince leaves. ”
“Ha ha ha! Indeed indeed. You can leave now. ”
The Tower Master left the office. The steps, however, did not lead to the ivory tower, but the side of the palace, where the princes lived. In particular, the palace of the fifth prince, ‘Ragnar Greenriver’.
“Cutting!”
Ian focused on which breath until the morning without sleep.
Even though he had not slept, his body was completely refreshed as if he was sleeping soundly.
Fatigue has completely been removed, whichever is already full.
Cleanse her skin and hair as if she had taken a bath.
Moreover, a fresh scent enveloped his body.
“This is a good thing about where to breath.”
More specifically, the effect of Ian's breath.
“Mother is still asleep ...”
It had been a long time since he had visited Mogrian since his previous life.
He did not have many memories here, but it was his hometown.
“Scenary this will be removed first when the war starts.”
Mogrian is the province where the border is connected with the border of another large kingdom, ‘Coldwood.’
It should be a strategic point for allies and enemies.
There is no way to avoid war.
“By the way, they must have received a report by now.”
He made sure that the reports of the executing magician should be sent directly to the Emperor.
Ian was confirmed by the mage even if he had not entered the academy.
This was part of the plan, the mage had to follow as he meant.
“The current emperor must be desperate to find a talented youngster.”
Not for him, but for his first son.
The immature crown prince, Hayden Greenriver.
“Old fox ivory tower may start supporting the fifth prince.”
Old fox ivory tower. Ian's expression pointed towards the current tower lord, Habert.
“They may want me as much as Emperor.”
Soon, the conflict between The Rroyal and The Ivory tower will begin.
Since it happened when Ian was young, he was unable to recall in detail.
The stories he read from books or heard from Ragnar.
He just guessed the situation from those sources.
“What I can be sure of is, on whichever side I stand, I will be welcomed.”
The main object now is to regain strength as the previous life.
He would stand on whichever side provided the shortest way to recover his stregnth.
Whether the emperor's side or the ivory tower. Or, stay neutral.
Side Whatever side I take, I won't be controlled by them at this time.
After thinking, Ian left the room quietly.
It was too early, so the first floor was empty.
However, that sounds really complicated out there.
The source of the noise came from the street where the Inn door was located.
‘What's going on?’
Ian quickly focused the mana in his ears.
He stuck his ear to the wall of the inn.
Because of the mana replication, he could hear the voice clearly.
“So, does he stay at this inn?”
“Accurate once. He came with a knight with a large body .. ”
“We came to the right location, then.”
Ian did not know about the voice that asked, but the one who answered the voice was the innkeeper.
In addition, he could hear many sounds from outside.
“Hmm ...”
It was clear that they were coming for Ian.
With pals.
“Pak. Mage, let's get started. ”
huh uh? The mage?
Start what?
That time,
“IAN, MAGE OF EMPIRE COME OUTSIDE AND ACCEPT EMPEROR'S ORDER!”
“Urgh!”
Ian almost lost his ear.
The voice was already amplified by Ian. Worse, the outer mage amplified his voice once more.
It was the voice of the witch witch, who met Ian yesterday.
