Chapter 136 Map

Chapter 136 Map

The road to Glassford was filled with carriages. Magi from all over the Southern Federation were traveling to this city for the opening of the Soaring River Secret Plane.

A month had passed since the students of the Clover Academy had departed from Moon City. By sunset today, they will have reached the city that houses the portal to the secret plane.

Inside a black carriage drawn by blue, fish-scaled horses, Adam, Edward, and Lisa were traveling together. Currently, the three of them were attentively going over a particular map.

Adam thoroughly memorized the details on the parchment paper and muttered in amazement, "How fascinating! The area inside the secret plane is actually so big?" This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

Much to his surprise, he learned that the secret plane was more than 80 square miles!

"This map looks pretty old, fatty. It's been in your family for a while, huh?" Adam glanced at Edward and asked curiously.

Edward rolled the map and kept it away. He crossed his arms and replied smugly. "Heh, of course! For generations, my family has been updating this map every time the secret plane opened."

Adam silently nodded. He guessed that the current prosperity of the Turner Family, or any major Magus Family in the Southern Federation for that matter, could be directly related to the secret plane.

Only now was he beginning to realize just how much of a vital role the secret plane played in the history and the progress of the Southern Federation.

"I must say, this map is even more detailed than the one in my family." Lisa praised the detailed work as she rolled the parchment paper and put it inside her space-type storage ring.

"So the main objective for us will be to advance toward the center of the secret plane, huh?" Adam asked as he stroked his chin.

"That is correct." Edward nodded. "Based on the past experiences of my family elders, although one would find treasures and precious herbs and items in the periphery of the secret plane, none of them can compare to the ones found at the center."

"Hmm..." Adam nodded absentmindedly as he stared at the center of the map. There, he saw something marked that he would have never imagined even in his wildest dreams.

The fact that such a structure could even exist spoke volumes about the Magus who created the secret plane. He had learned that the Magus who owned this secret plane was someone who majored in the School of Summoning.

Rows of carriages traveled on the dirt road leading to the city. From the coat of arms painted on these carriages, Lisa could tell that many organizations from all over the Southern Federation were arriving here. That was a given, after all.

Suddenly, she started to feel butterflies in her stomach and her hands involuntarily clenched. She had never been to a secret plane before. She nervously hoped that she would find good treasures inside that would help her as a Magus.

Seeing this, Edward gently patted her shoulder. "Don't worry, everything will be fine."

Lisa turned to look at Edward and met his eyes. She didn't know when, but after a certain point in time, Edward started to seem very reliable to her. She felt she could depend on him and not worry about other things in his company.

Realizing, that she was gazing into his eyes for longer than necessary, she immediately looked away. Her face reddened slightly and she softly replied, "T-Thanks, I know."

Edward also started to blush, noticing what had just happened. He turned the other way and looked outside the window. "Y-

Yeah, no problem."

Adam, who was sitting across from them with a wine gourd in hand, looked stupidly at the duo acting so weirdly. He couldn't help but ask, "Why are you guys acting so strange?"

"Shut up!" Edward and Lisa screamed together, hoping their loud voices would drown out their embarrassment.

"Kekeke." Adam decided this was the perfect time to tease them. "You guys look so cute—"

However, before he could even finish what he was about to say, Lisa and Edward's feet enlarged in his vision.

"Acckk!! You bastards! Ganging up on poor ol' me—Ughh! Stop it! Fine, ya bastards, have it your way. Val, I choose you!"

Gray light flashed inside the carriage.

"Rawr~"
