C142

As soon as Deborah's words ended, the dining hall turned upside down.

Deborah's opinion was quite persuasive, and if her hypothesis is correct, there could soon be a great loss of lives near the Euclid Temple.

"In the cracks are underground ...!"

"Certainly, there is no law that says it only happens on the surface."

"So, we shouldn't keep our hands off this matter, right?"

"Even if it's not, there's nothing wrong with preparing for the worst-case scenario."

Duke Seymour looked at his daughter in astonishment and said with a serious voice.

But if they want to prepare for it, they have to act quickly. Many people were staying in the accommodations near the temple due to the pilgrimage.

"I don't think this is the time to enjoy a dinner, so I'll go first."

Starting with Belreck, those of similar age to him also left their seats.

It's an emergency situation, but if you think about it again, it was also a great opportunity to contribute to the capital.

"Belreck, I'll give you the right as the Tower's representative, so bring some people to support the rear. I'll pass through the gate and confirm the movement near the temple again."

"We'll follow you too."

Duke Seymour and his guards alone were enough to annihilate the imperial knights, but even the head of an indirect family would also participate.

"I'll go too."

In the midst of chaos, the duke gently grabbed Deborah's shoulder as she was lost in thought.

"I'll go with you too."

When she said something unexpected, attention shifted back to her. This time they seemed deeply nervous.

"What are you saying now? It's dangerous."

Even Belreck, who was leaving in good spirits, stopped walking.

"Deborah, there may be battles, so it's dangerous to proceed."

"Honestly speaking, you might just get in the way..."

A relative magician started giving some advice, so Deborah summoned a large divine spirit out of nowhere.

When the white turtle with a mysterious atmosphere appeared on the table, they were astonished.

"Isn't that a divine spirit?"

"It looks like a light divine spirit..."

Light and dark spirits had not been summoned in the Montes family for several generations, so they paid more attention.

"Deborah, where did you get such a valuable divine spirit?"

"That's amazing."

In the midst of admiration, she had the turtle change back into the form of a tattoo.

"As you can see, it wasn't my intention to go out and fight. I'm not foolish, and I know I won't help in battle."

"So, will you use that divine spirit?"

"This is a divine spirit sensitive to the power of darkness. If monsters are hiding underground, this divine spirit could detect them."

Some of them seemed admiring.

She even reached the most convincing hypothesis and suggested the best solution to minimize damage.

The eyes of the family members, who had completely ignored Deborah before, changed completely.

They didn't know what had happened to her in the meantime, but she seemed to be part of the true Seymour lineage they were proud of.

"Deborah. If you feel in danger, you must return immediately by tearing the teleportation scroll at any time. Do you understand?"

The monsters hid underground and came out late at night, so they were very weak to light.

The mages, seeing the young monsters fall powerless when exposed to light, continuously cast spells combining broad domain magic and illumination. So the situation was handled quickly.

"The people in the Yukri Temple area applauded Deborah all night, as if her handling of the white divine spirit was mysterious. I was also surprised to see the enormous dome-shaped defensive wall."

The mage's voice contained an emotion that couldn't be hidden.

Thanks to her, a catastrophe was avoided, and the tower's reputation was further elevated.

"I never thought she could handle a divine spirit. She has many hidden talents. Honestly, I am amazed."

"I didn't expect Miss Deborah to appear on the battlefield, so I had to look twice. I thought she was a Seymour for sure. All mages probably must think the same as me; she is amazing."

It seemed that the mages had already fallen in love with Deborah.

Deborah was secretly popular among the battle mages due to her formula, but this incident has strengthened her position even more.

"I see. Good job participating in the battle, you may return."

When the conversation with the mage ended, the Crown Prince resumed meditating, sitting with crossed legs.

"Deborah..."

It could be said that it was a relief that the mages managed to prevent the rift well.

People are still anxious about the rifts, so if the Yukri Temple and its surroundings had suffered significant damage, the atmosphere would have become even more agitated.

The Crown Prince wanted to successfully conclude this incense ceremony entrusted to him by his father.

'How should I respond to this incident?'

Absorbed in his thoughts, he suddenly came up with a good idea.

Originally, the Crown Prince had tried to make the incense ceremony stand out by using Philap's fire spirit in the form of a bird.

But Philap did something foolish and had to be exiled.

Even in the midst of that, Deborah saved people's lives using a mysterious divine spirit.

"It would be a much bigger scene than that of a fire bird."

He grabbed a quill and hastily wrote a letter.

He didn't have time.

Since the event is tomorrow, the Crown Prince immediately called the servant to take the letter and deliver it to the Seymour mansion.

On the day of the incense ceremony.

I was dressed by a maid while feeling exhausted.

Despite stopping the rift monster, I still didn't feel well.

Perhaps it's because of the dream I had.

No matter how much effective sleep tea I drank, the strange dreams still showed no signs of stopping.

"Maybe I'm tired because I stayed up the night before."

The night of the rift. While watching the magic happening near the Euclid Temple, I was frightened by the invasion of young monsters, so I created a defensive wall using Purple.

"I never thought Purple would be so strong."

The defensive wall was supposed to be large enough to protect a body, but Purple created a huge dome covering the entire hill.

"Well, since it ate so many expensive mana stones, it must have a lot of mana..."

Anyway, people around me suddenly looked at me like a hero because of the defensive wall I made.

"Things got out of control again."

I don't know how rumors spread, but the Crown Prince suddenly made an unexpected request.
