Mage's Secret

The windows were wide open, and from the angle of the sunlight, even without looking at the magic dial, one could clearly know that it was just past noon.Judging from the work and rest habits that Traphael has maintained for more than ten years, he should have sat in the dining room and enjoyed a healthy and delicious lunch, and then he would keep shuttling between the study and the research room until At sunset, when even the moon is dim, you will stop your day's research and go back to your room to rest.

But at this moment, he was sitting on his bed. The room was empty and quiet, suitable for thinking.This was supposed to be the most comfortable environment for Traphael, but now he felt that it was too quiet, which would make him involuntarily think about a lot of things that he had better not think about in his current state.

For example, the same blue eyes of Elvis and Jadonis, he once lost one, but gained another pair during his travels.Yadunis was the one who saved him from the brink of death, and the appearance of Elvis pulled him out of the quagmire of sorrow.But now they had all disappeared from him, and all in ways he least wanted.

Another example, what the bard had said to him not long ago.

To resurrect the dead, as a mage, and a mage who has a certain understanding of black magic, Traphael certainly understands that this is impossible.But the tiny ray of hope that arose during the conversation with the poet still existed in his heart at this time, impacting his reason together with his beating heart.

If the existence of the world and magic itself are miracles, then why is it impossible for such a theory that subverts common sense to exist?

As soon as this thought entered his mind, it added fuel to the flame of hope.The flames burned higher and higher, and his heart beat faster and faster.

If Lawrence's resurrection spell is real, then he can bring Yadunis back to life.Even if it's black magic, so what?He is already a fallen man now, and he doesn't care to deepen his sin.He is not a believer in the temple, so he doesn't care even if his soul cannot return to the God of Light after death, as long as his research is not exposed, he will still be the magician respected by the world.Even if they would be ruined because of this, these false names are nothing compared to saving Yadunis' life.

If it was just fake news, he would have nothing more to lose than disappointment if he just took a look.

After figuring this out, Traphael could no longer sit still in the same place, he straightened his back bent by the depression, and his heartbeat rumbled in his ears like thunder.He grabbed the magic staff beside the bed, and his feet seemed to have his own consciousness, leading him to rush to the door. He opened the door and continued to run towards the gate of the mage tower.

But as soon as he ran out of the room, his arm was grabbed by someone.He turned his head, and Murphy was watching him worriedly from the door.

After Traphael left, Murphy also left the empty reception room.When he walked out of the room, he realized that he seemed to have nowhere to go.He is not a real mage apprentice, so he doesn't have to do those studies, or study various tomes and notes related to spells.He came to the mainland to find his younger brother, but there was still no news of his younger brother at this time.Before that, he spent most of his time pursuing the mage, but now Traphael left alone and refused to communicate with him.

The dazed demon was walking randomly in the mage tower, and when he came back to his senses, he had already reached the door of Traphael's room.The mage was in the room at this time, but Murphy couldn't hear any movement in the room.The door was made of wood, without any defensive circle, and Murphy could easily destroy it.But he couldn't do that. At this moment, a thin door stood in front of him like an insurmountable moat.

Murphy was a little worried about the impact Leo's words would have on Traphael, but he quickly comforted himself that the mage had just rejected the poet, and he should just be in a bad mood and needed to be alone.He understood that it was meaningless for him to stand here. Even if the mage had sorted out his emotions and planned to leave the room to go to the study or research room for his endless research, he would still use that teleportation spell instead of coming to where Murphy was. in the hallway.

Just when he was about to leave, the door next to him opened from the inside, and Traphael walked out of the room in a hurry, without even seeing him standing at the door of the room.

Seeing such a mage, Murphy immediately realized that he was probably wrong—the bard's words had a greater impact on the mage than he had imagined.

He grabbed the mage who was about to leave and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Why are you here?" Trafalle asked back in astonishment.

"Where I am is not the point, where are you going?" Murphy asked, he was a little annoyed, "Are you going to find that homeless man? Are you crazy? You also know that spells that can revive people are impossible." Yes, even with such a spell, it can only summon undead without self-awareness!"

Murphy held Traphael's wrist so hard that it almost hurt the mage. The latter struggled, but as expected, he couldn't pull his hand out.He frowned and looked at his wrist and said, "Let me go, where I'm going and who I'm going to meet doesn't seem to be your business."

"It's none of my business?" Murphy was instantly ignited by these words. He pulled Traphael to his face, but the pained expression on the other's face softened his heart again: "Even if you Don't care about my feelings for you, and don't take my worries seriously, but don't forget that we still have a relationship of collaborators. You are still in the process of losing Elvis and thinking of Yadu Among Nice's sorrows, this kind of sorrow makes you lose the ability to judge accurately, even as a collaborator, I can't just stand by and watch you do stupid things because of it."

However, Trafael didn't appreciate his persuasion: "I know what I'm doing, I'm sober." When he said these words bluntly, Murphy involuntarily showed a disappointed expression, pulled His hands loosened a little too.

For Trafael at this time, the most correct approach should be to throw off his hand immediately, and then continue to chase Leo who should be still on the road at this time.But looking at Murphy's injured appearance, he added: "I'm just going to see, if it's just fake news, or a spell to manipulate undead, I'll be right back."

Seeing that Traphael could not be persuaded, Murphy sighed annoyedly, and said, "Then I will go with you." Fearing that Traphael would reject his request, Murphy immediately added: "You say Wherever you go is your freedom, so where I go is also my freedom. And compared to me being with you, don't you feel more at ease leaving me alone in the mage tower?"

Hearing Murphy's question, Traphael suddenly reacted. He didn't know when he had started to trust this young devil. There's nothing wrong with Fay being left alone in the mage's tower.

There seemed to be no reason to refuse, and Traphael agreed to Murphy's request to accompany him after a little thought.

"However, if what Leo said is true, don't stop me anymore. Also, you have to obey my arrangements on the way," the mage said.

Regarding Traphael's request, Murphy just snorted—as if he had never heard of the mage's arrangement before.Well, it seems that there was one time, but he was not sensible at the time, so it didn't count.

If Murphy's request to go with him was expected, another temporary resident in the Mage Tower made such a request completely beyond Traphael's expectations.

When Traphael took Murphy downstairs and ordered the apprentices to prepare the horses, the elf suddenly appeared in front of them.

"Are you going out?" Roy asked.

"That's right, I'm going to visit a mage." Traphael said, as simple as having an ordinary academic exchange.

Roy didn't even ask who he was visiting, but immediately said, "I'm with you, too." He even used declarative sentences instead of requesting questions.

Of course, Traphael immediately refused. He frowned and looked at the elf, always feeling that the elf at this time was different from before.The elf's expression is very calm, with his cold green eyes, he looks a little indifferent, which is completely different from his usual innocent and natural attitude.

"If you don't want to go with me, I will go alone. If you can generously lend me a horse, I will be very grateful to you." Roy said blankly, his attitude was very tough, which made Traphael almost thought that standing in front of him was another elf who looked exactly like Roy.

"Wherever you want to go is of course your freedom, and a horse is not precious to me, but why do you insist on going with me?" The elf's power is very strong, even if he has never used them Strength, Traphael could still feel it in him.The mage knew that if the elf insisted on going, he had neither the ability nor a good excuse to stop him, but he was still curious about the elf's motives.

"I'm going because I have to." The elf narrowed his eyes and looked at the mage, but his vision seemed to penetrate the mage far away.Trafael realized that what he was looking at was the direction of the Moran Plain.

Roy was out of his mind for a while, and soon he refocused on the mage. His eyes were cold and seemed to have insight into the world, which made Traphael feel a little hairy.Seemingly seeing the mage's concerns, he smirked without emotion and said, "Don't worry, no matter what your purpose is, I will not interfere with you. Of course, I won't tell anyone else about it." .”
