Chapter 160: The Forest of the Magic Tower Master (2)

Clack, clack

The hooves were consistent. I was dozing off in the cozy shaking of the carriage.

We arrived at the Eastern part of the Empire almost instantly after using multiple portals.

We would have had to leave a few days ago and stay in multiple inns if it was not for the headdress that Christelle gifted me.

My friends, as well as the attendants and imperial servants, would have all suffered.

I was having a relaxing trip thanks to the main character. I couldn't help but smile.

Wake up, oh Prince. We dont have much time.

I heard a magnificent voice that I had heard before. The man gently grabbed my shoulder.

I immediately opened my eyes.

I could see the blue sky and my head was on some soft golden grass.

I was in a carriage before I fell asleep, so this was an unexplainable change of scenery.

I jerked my body up.

"What the

I could see a familiar Bell Tower and the blue North Sea.

However, instead of the salty taste of the sea, the air smelled like sweet Gugelhupf.

The seagulls in the blue sky did not chirp but made noises that sounded like the wheels of a carriage.

Clack, clack

Oh, its Yvelines. No, its a dream.

It is similar, your highness.

I heard the familiar tone respond to my mumbling. I was still seated on the ground as I urgently turned around.

The mans long black hair fluttered in the wind and his dark blue eyes were rippling like waves.

A handsome face that looked almost the same as the Imperial Crown Prince's

He was wearing an Archmages formal attire, the same as last time.

I barely managed to stand up without falling.

Your Royal Highness. Nikky.

Yes, I am your chimney bird.

This must not be just a dream. Well, it is a dream, but

I scrunched my nose. I spoke as soon as the thoughts came to my mind.

Did you borrow the location?

You are wise, your highness. I knew I liked you.

The Ark that had taken the appearance of Alexandre Riester gently curled its eyes up.

I was completely stunned.

Something like this is possible? You've never talked to me like this before, sir.

Youve gotten quite strong, your highness. Your plate will not break because of this level of interference. It is only for a very short period of time.

Nikky then approached me extremely quietly.

I couldnt hear any footsteps or even the rustling of his clothes.

Funnily enough, it was only then that it really registered that he was not human.

I calmly looked at the man. It was great that I had gotten stronger.

A divine items assessment would not be a lie so circulating my ether all this time without stopping did pay off.

And this body has also gotten stronger.

Excuse me?

It is because we are gathering together. I was shocked as well, as something like this has never happened before.

He was silent for a moment. He seemed to be giving me time to analyze what he just said.

I thought to myself.

If it is something he would call as we

"Sir, are you saying that you are getting stronger because the divine items of the Empire are gathering in one place? That allowed you to borrow my dreams?

There was no other possible hypothesis.

The last divine item of the Empire, the Sacred Bow of the Tree of Life was in a forest within the Blanquer territory.

Christelle's body held the Blessing of the Blue Sea and Crown prince Cdric had pulled out the Sword of Wisdom from the Flaming Star.

Nikky in front of me was the Ark of the Wind Deity.

All of them were heading toward the Duchy, so the four divine items getting close to each other was inevitable.

Nikky smiled as if he was proud of me.

That is correct. However, you cannot forget the most important existence.

He then extended his index finger and pointed at my heart.Yôur favorite novels at n/o(v)el/bin(.)com

The item within your plate is something that was controlled by the regent of the Almighty God. I do not know anything about that.

I gulped.

I had expected it for a long time but I became certain based on Nikky's comment.

The divine item of the Pope, the Paten of Wishes was really inside of me.

I subconsciously placed a hand on my heart. Thump thump, my heart was beating healthily.

The handsome man covered his mouth with his sleeve and chuckled.

We were scattered all around this land at the will of the Almighty God. We have met many humans throughout the ages but have never chosen a true master. That is why

"Are you giving me a warning that you have no way of knowing what will happen when all of you are gathered in one place?

Yes, your highness. You understood very quickly.

He answered and looked toward the horizon in the distance. I inadvertently looked in the same direction as well.

My eyes then opened wide. It might sound ironic, but I felt like I was waking up.

The border where the sky and the sea met was crumbling like a sand castle during a storm.

Crack, psssss

Ah, there are my parents.

Eva's voice quieted down. I thoroughly observed the castle.

I then saw the large gates opening in the distance.

I could see a group that had come out to greet the envoy of carriages from the Imperial family.

There were two silhouettes in front of the group. Duchess Cecil Blanquer and her husband.

Huuuuuu.

I let out a sigh. I then made eye contact with Percy, who was now on the back of my hand.

Five divine items were set to gather at the heart of the Empire's highest mountains and I was about to be in danger again.

Furthermore, I didnt even know what kind of danger I would be in.

However, thinking about it in my perspective, Prince Jesse had a time limit since the day I transmigrated into his body and had always been in danger.

So

I will be careful no matter what. No matter who I meet here or what I do. Thats enough, right?

Pipo!

The little guy chirped energetically. It was as if he had read my mind.

Duchess Blanquer and her husband were very strong people.

The way they stood up completely straight and their expressions that showed no openings proved that.

They were completely calm, even as they watched the three red pandas, the harp seal, and the chimney bird coming out of our carriage.

Sir Johann escorted Isabelle out of the carriage behind us and although Duke Sarnez was not visible, she looked as if that did not matter.

Eva, who would soon become the official heir, just greeted them before hiding behind us. They did not react to that either.

My name is Cecil Blanquer. I greet our esteemed Royal Highness and Prince Jesse Venetiaan.

The Duchess bowed. Her husband and the rest of the family showed their respects following their matriarch.

She was wearing a shoulder-revealing dress and had a necklace that stuck to her neck.

Other than that, her outfit was oddly different from the nobles in the Imperial Capital. Taking a closer look, I could see that there were parts that were the same as Alexandre's Archmage formal attire.

It seemed to be a mix of her personal style and a mage's formal attire.

My ill-tempered child has shown extreme disrespect toward the Imperial family and the two of you. I truly apologize for his actions.

She followed up with an apology about Robert Blanquer's actions.

The crown prince flicked his chin while I silently nodded my head. The couple slowly stopped bowing.

Please let us escort you inside. Our place may be shabby but we have prepared a place for all of you to stay.

The Duchess motioned with her hands. Everybody followed once the crown prince started walking.

I quietly asked her a question.

Where is the young Duke?

A small crack appeared on the Duchess face. I continued to speak.

I heard that he is still staying in the territory. I hope that your son and young lady Eva will not be in the same place while we are here. Would that be possible?

I will make sure that is the case, your highness.

Thank you very much. It does not matter to me but it would not be relaxing for your daughter.

There was no response.

She looked back and forth at me and her daughter with her deep brown eyes before looking forward with a slightly upset look on her face.

Eva grabbed my arm with one hand and Christelles hand with the other before walking with a smile on her face.

I could hear Vice Captain lisabeth laughing.

The place that Duchess Blanquer had prepared for us was far from shabby.

It was the second tallest tower in the Lords Castle and we had extra rooms even after the attendants, imperial servants, and Imperial Guard members all unpacked.

Everything was cleaned meticulously. We could probably walk bare feet down the hallway.

Percy and our little headaches gathered by the window to chirp, aarf, and whine.

They seemed to be reviewing our new lodging.

Lets think about that after we take a look at the meals, kiddos.

I placed the headdress inside of your bag, your highness.

Thank you very much. Nobody should have seen it when we arrived earlier, right?

Yes, your highness. His Royal Highness and young lady Sarnez made sure that you were covered.

Benjamin responded.

I listened to my teacher and used Julites headdress only before we used the portal and took it off as soon as we arrived.

I was planning on brushing it aside if someone heard the rumors and asked

Gasp. Your highness, your disguise is in here!

Ganael shouted in a loud voice once he opened the closet. Benjamin and I quickly rushed over to the young boy's side.

Eva had not said anything about my masquerade attire until now.

It feels awkward for me to say this, but this was something that was so entertaining that my family in Juliette Palace even placed bets on what it would be.

I don't care what it is as long as it doesn't have that damn wing

It is not an angel, Benjamin-nim. It looks like we lost our emergency fund again

Ganael spoke with a disappointed tone.

I didnt care about Benjamin's sigh as I grabbed the outfit with a smile on my face.

I could see the card the young Duchess had placed by the collar.

Your highness, you are a Black Knight who has fallen for the devils seduction. Nobody will expect this!

I couldnt help but chuckle.

A knight is great. Something normal is best. Our Eva is the best too!
