Chapter 234 – The Emissary
#234.
It was a sunny morning two days after the day I had accelerated progress with Louisiana, and the day I had successfully completed Isabella’s persuasion.
Gaon was heading towards the gray mage tower to meet Jaehee.
“Please, it should work out.”
One of the factors that convinced Isabella, helping her become stronger, requires the help of Jaehee and Lee Inkel Heinrich.
It’s okay to introduce other flame wizards, and even if it’s not that, there’s no problem if you teach them yourself that their magical understanding and insight are different, even if their attributes are different.
There is little chance that the person who gave up the seat of the Tower because it is annoying will do the favor, but based on what I saw last time, he seems to care for Jae-hee quite a bit, so there is still hope.
Entering the magic tower, Gaon skillfully presented the ticket he had received from Jaehee to the counter staff and then moved to her lab.
Coincidentally, today was the day of joint research with Reinkel Heinrich, so the timing was good.
Push-
Scanning magic passed over my face, and the door opened with a squeak from the ship.
When I went inside, I saw Jaehee and Liinkel, who had all kinds of data spread out on a wide desk and were handling various reagents.
Jaehee hurriedly approached Gaon’s popularity.
“Came? Long time no see!”
“Yes. It’s only two weeks. How have you been doing?”
“I was fine, of course. I heard that Mr. Gaon collapsed again? She heard from Mr. Chorin.”
“Is it so? It was no big deal though. In the first place, I woke up the next day. I am fine now.”
As she playfully bent her arms to inflate her biceps, Jaehee’s eyes were fixed there. Her eyes light up and she sneaks up to her and pokes her finger.
“Wow, that’s so hard!”
“Is that so? You see this often.”
‘Still, is this the first time you’ve touched it yourself?’
While Jaehee said that, as if she couldn’t be satisfied with her fingers, now she completely started to play with her palms.
It is doubtful whether this is the woman who was passive about skinship to the point of having to feed her because he couldn’t even kiss her.
As I hesitated, thinking how long Gaon would have to stay like this, I heard an old voice.
“My disciple. Why don’t you stop touching the man’s body and help Master?”
“Yes? Ah, ah, yes! By the way, don’t be ridiculous! Is it just because the muscles are amazing? Right? Mr. Gaon!”
“… Yes. Yes.”
“Look! You say yes! Ugh, Mr. Gaon, wait a moment!”
Jae-hee went over to him to help her re-inkel, even though she blushed and grunted as if she was ashamed.
Like the relationship between her close grandfather and her granddaughter, the way she puts her hands and feet together while bickering makes the viewer smile.
As if this research had originally reached its end, it came to an end after drawing a magic circle and combining reagents along with Reinkel.
Reinkel handed over the purple potion that made him lose his appetite just by looking at it.
“Long time no see. It is a gift.”
“Yes? This to me… ?”
“It’s a good thing for a man. I heard you meet your student often these days? There might be something to do.”
Then, when he accidentally accepted the handover, Jaehee took it out with a more reddened face than before! He shouted.
“Master!”
“Why are you screaming again? It’s long. Am I wrong? You will answer.”
“… I will be grateful.”
What more can he say here? It seems that Reinkel doesn’t know that Jaehee is secretly dating Chorin, Gaon’s lover and friend.
If he had known, he wouldn’t have allowed the disciple he cared for so much to meet someone who had a lover, even a child.
Being indifferent to people and disliking annoying people helped me at times like this.
As Gaon took her stamina pills, Jaehee, who was arguing with Lee Incell again, sighed and asked,
“But what happened? You said you had a favor to ask of me.”
“That’s it. Actually, I was going to visit Mr. Reinkel, not Mr. Jaehee.”
“You mean me? Let me tell you. I’ll think about it if it’s not too annoying.”
Inside of Riinkel, Gaon was already the son-in-law. He is a face that will be with you for a long time to come, so he is willing to take on some troublesome tasks.
Gaon brought up the matter, feeling that the possibility was surprisingly not so slim.
“There is a woman among my acquaintances. She’s called Isabella Martinez, but she’s not like Mr. Jaehee, but can she teach me magic? By the way, she uses flame magic.”
“Hmm? You want me to teach you magic? What a nuisance. Even if it’s a flame type, it doesn’t fit me.”
“I know that this is an unreasonable request. However, the most outstanding mage I know is Mr. Reinkel. Please!”
As she bowed her head, Lee Incell gently stroked her beard and took her luck.
“If it’s Martinez, she must be a family that fought against the Shu Brands. As far as I know, I heard that the family has completely collapsed.”
“… She is the granddaughter of Dominic Martinez. After her grandfather passed away, she left her hometown and wandered around.”
“Right. But what have you got to do with her?”
“Yes?”
“What do you mean? Wouldn’t there be a reason for doing this? If… Is this?”
Lee Incell held out her pinky finger and shook it disgustingly while stealthily peeking at Jaehee.
From the moment she mentioned Isabella, she was visibly agitated and fidgety, but it was obvious what she was thinking.
It was information that I absolutely needed to find out even for the sake of my student’s love front.
“… They were hostile until not too long ago. Now, through persuasion, the relationship has improved to some extent.”
“You are hostile… That’s enough. By the way, if it’s Martinez, does that kid use telekinesis?”
“Yes. I use a combination of telekinesis and magic.”
“Hoo… ? A combination of psychic powers and magic. It’s fun. How old are you and how old are you?”
“At the age of 22, it’s a 9-star level.”
Isabella was younger than Hayeon.
Of course, it would be reversed if I did it until her return, but I couldn’t reveal it to Lee Incell. He opened his eyes wide to the conditions beyond his imagination.
“9 stars at 22? That’s great. He’s not as good as you, but he’s a great genius. You’ve accomplished faster than that Hirencia Chevrons. If I teach you, the youngest Transcendentalist might be born. Jaehee is better than you. You might lose your man.”
Lee Incell, who showed interest in Isabella as if she was interested, smiled at her pupil and revealed her playfulness.
Jaehee calmly listened to the story, then refuted Gaon’s attention at the sudden remark.
“What, what are you losing? And I started magic late! If you started at a young age, you’ve already reached 11 stars and more!”
“Is that so? I don’t think it’s something to talk about with only 8 adults, right?”
Seeing the nasty glances, Jae-hee started to cheer up, perhaps feeling the heat.
“Profit! If you continue, I will not stand still!”
“If not? What are you going to do?”
“I’m going to run away!”
“Do you have a place to go? Are you thinking of following him?”
“It’s Master!!”
The quarrel between the priests and priests began again.
Through the conversation between the two, Gaon was able to know that Jaehee had taken a step further and pioneered the realm of 8 stars while he had been to the Dragon’s Nest.
It is a miracle that is hard to accept with common sense that he has already achieved this level of achievement in less than three years since he came into contact with Mana.
Even so, it was really proud that he was still not satisfied and continued to develop.
Gaon laughed while watching Reinkel and Jaehee’s one-sided deal, then intervened between the two.
“Anyway, I want Riinkel-nim to teach Isabella.”
“Hmm? What kind of advice can you give me? But there is one last thing I want to ask you. What is the child’s purpose? If she says she will commit evil with the magic I teach, she can’t teach.”
It was a serious question that could not be ignored. Gaon sighed and answered.
“Revenge.”
“… Revenge Of course, it must be about the Shubrands. What are you going to do Are you going to annihilate the entire family?”
“I may have thought so before. However, it seems that there was a change of heart after persuasion. I’m not going to just kill it.”
This is not something I heard directly from the person concerned, so it is impossible to give a definite answer, but it is something that can be guessed by looking at the attitude at that time.
“Okay? You’re not sure yet. When the answer to that becomes clear, come back together. I will decide based on the condition.”
“Thank you. Then I will go alone.”
“That’s right. Jaehee, you go out to meet me.”
“Chit! Is it because you don’t say anything? Gaon, let’s go!”
Jaehee, who snorted at her teacher’s teasing, left the lab with Gaon.
Of course, he didn’t seem to be genuinely offended because he knew it was a prank that only came from affection. It was evident from the slight smile on his lips.
Jaehee glanced behind her and she said.
“You don’t have to pay too much attention to what Master said. That, when I said there was a guy I’m dating these days, I must have mistaken him for Gaon!”
“It’s okay. It’s not even a bad misunderstanding. What.”
“That, that, that? I’m glad then.”
Jaehee fanned her hand while responding. The red cheeks brought out her youthful charm.
After a while, the two stood at the entrance of the magic tower and exchanged greetings.
“Bye. See you later.”
“Yes. Contact me if anything happens.”
“Yes! Thank you for your concern.”
Lastly, Gaon bowed his head and turned back as it was. It was not my taste to waste time conceding to each other to go first.
‘Once the preparations are complete. I just have to wait for an answer.’
The alliance with Isabella is now a matter of time. It was better for her to do this than to wait for an escape opportunity she never knew would come.
It’s a very smooth process compared to what I was worried about what to do if I was stained with vengeance before persuasion and the conversation didn’t work at all.
Gaon, who was heading towards the guild street, hurriedly took out his communicator at the sudden vibration.
“Rugiena?”
– Oh, it’s me. The treatment for the dragon’s heart has been decided. A week later, with the participation of the delegation sent from Drakania, it was decided to destroy it. By the way, there was no Rivera Dracanis on the delegation’s personnel list.
“Is it so? Then, can I ask His Highness the 2nd Prince so that I can participate?”
-Are you going there?
It seems strange that Gaon is directly attending such a meeting.
“Yes, there is nothing to lose by going there. More than anything, I also want to capture the scenes that are clearly processed.”
-Huh… Okay? Don’t you just want to see Hirencia Chevrons up close?
“… No. It’s a combination of both.”
-Okay. I’ll believe you when you say that. Maybe tomorrow the answer will come. Hang up
“Yes, I will wait for your call.”
That was it. Gaon, who put her communicator in his arms, returned to the guild with light steps, anticipating the day when he would meet Hirencia and her face at a leisurely distance.
4 days later
“I beg your pardon? Rivera Dracanis included in the delegation?”
-Huh. She said she was suddenly sent to an extra roster. She’s her two escorts including her.
“Ha…”
– What should I do? Should I just call back and ask for it to be removed?
I had already finished talking with the second prince three days ago. If I suddenly fell out now, it would hurt her face quite a bit.
‘Perseverance is…’
The envoys must have been aware of the personal information of those participating in the Dragon’s Heart Extinction Ceremony.
Perhaps through some process Rivera must have seen her name there and belatedly announced her intention to participate.
My head hurts at the blatant behavior overflowing with relentless yet malicious intent.
Gaon, who had been thinking about it, made a decision.
“I will just participate. Even if I come, I can’t do anything.”
-… Ok then Even if you have a fight, never hang out with me. Got it?
“Sure. They will completely ignore you.”
-Huh. Contact me again next time.
After that, contact was cut off.
… And, time passed quickly and it became the day the delegation was dispatched.
