Surviving The Fourth Calamity

Capítulo 1092: Chapter 885: Lynn’s Agitation

Lynn’s expression shifted swiftly from blank to livid: “Leonard? How could he come out? What is Mogwei trying to do?”

Lady of the Forest, Mogwei, is the leader of the Wood Elves in the Supreme Forest, and this group of Wood Elves is descendants of the Elf Kingdom Yerland, which has tried to rebuild in the Supreme Forest.

Initially, due to the full collapse of the Supreme Forest, the Wood Elves had to flee to Eternity Island… The first to leave its eerie environment were them.

The Wood Elves would rather return to the Supreme Forest and fight desperately with the Beastmen, Gnoll People, and Demon-born Elves than get trapped in the strange civil war on Eternity Island.

It seems that although Leonard is of Sun Elf descent, he leans more towards the Nature System mage; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been sent to Mogwei to study magic.

Sun Elf Archmages are more proficient in Arcane Magic; otherwise, the group of arcanists at Windsong Tower wouldn’t have stolen the Nyscroll.

No wonder Leonard doesn’t live in the Star Mountain Range. If a Child of Nature appears in the Sun Elf bloodline, they are generally sent to the Wood Elves to learn spells.

But once a pupil enters the Magic Tower, neither parents nor siblings can interfere in his life.

If that Lady of the Forest truly wishes to become one of the protagonists of this year’s grand play, Leonard indeed serves as a valid reason.

At least, Agleya City side can’t just stand by… At least when Leonard is in danger, they will surely step in to help.

Lynn estimated this fact, knowing that Hill might be dragged into trouble by his brother, causing his expression to look so grim.

“Mogwei doesn’t know that much. You should first ask where your brother’s destination is before getting anxious.” Hill calmly reminded Lynn, who was thinking too much.

Currently, not many people know Edna’s true identity, and characters like the Lady of the Forest clearly intend to catch a share of fate in this battle.

In the minds of many who think they have a good grasp of history, Edna, who can take the White Dragon Queen as an Animal Companion, is obviously adjacent to the Son of Destiny… But due to her bloodline origin, no one thought she would be the heroine.

Before encountering the starring role, most supporting characters have quite good luck. Of course, after encountering the protagonist, whether Edna will benefit or be drained of her luck depends on her stance.

So that Lady of the Forest is brazenly dispatching the brother of the Agleya Municipal Officer because she wants the benefits without paying much of a price.

Lynn pressed his temples tightly: “Sorry, Hill. I might be bringing you trouble…”

Hill’s friend gathered his chaotic thoughts and stood by the window, gazing into the distance: “But believe me, my friend, as a Chosen of Miliel, I won’t die so easily.”

Hill raised an eyebrow, understanding Lynn’s intention.

Lynn’s first choice, of course, is to pull his brother out of this pit… But if that Lady of the Forest gives Leonard a death order, even as a Level 20 Transcendent Mage, Lynn’s brother cannot defy his mentor’s request.

So, if Leonard is faced with an inevitable death situation, as an elder brother, Lynn can’t just sit back and watch his brother walk to his death.

So he will inevitably have to officially expose his identity as a Chosen of the God of Singing.

Even though the rumor always existed, as long as Lynn did not acknowledge it and Miliel was vague, he could still freely serve as Mayor of Agleya.

But once the Chosen identity is exposed, Lynn can only choose to leave Agleya… He can’t allow a disciple of Miliel to become an unstable factor in Agleya.

Agleya is a city of Elves and Half-Elves, and can choose not to accept Humans, but Miliel’s Chosen cannot reject the arrival of his Main God’s followers.

However, Lynn would rather give up his beloved Municipal Officer position than wish for Hill, who wants to leave Toril, to be dragged into this farce.

Hill smiled gently: “You should first check Leonard’s situation before talking about future matters! The issues haven’t happened yet; there’s no need for such sadness in advance.

Besides… have you forgotten the Undead Tribe?

Look at how Vila did it, and Edna too; your brother can do the same, can’t they?”

Hill thought Lynn was frightened by past events, but from the start, he never considered Edna’s adventure this troublesome… The heroes arranged by the Tablets of Fate mostly suffered heavy casualties to block for the protagonist, so their deaths ultimately allow the protagonist to explode in a small world.

But isn’t there the Undead Tribe!

The Teraxil Elf friends who died one after another in front of Edna would be enough to drive her mad.

Even if someone in her adventure team were to die, it wouldn’t be Leonard who joins for the fun, would it?

As long as the money flows smoothly, Lynn is sure to see an intact brother.

AO wants Midnight, who awakens memories, and doesn’t care how many survive in the adventure team!

The adventure teams arranged by the Tablets of Fate originally had bad luck in Styx but could live out a bright life if lucky enough with this opportunity.

Lynn’s resolute eyes suddenly became shifty as he finally realized he might be overthinking… The Undead Tribe is summoned by Coron as mercenaries, and any responsibility falls on the contractor if someone from the Toril people intervenes, regardless of their actions.

So, as long as Leonard, as the employer, contracts with the Temporal Artifact, he could even bring millions of Undead Tribes to trouble the Haber Family without issue.

Finally enlightened, Lynn revealed a smile, akin to a toothache: “Hill, I’m heading to Hidden Town for a check; if it turns out to be troublesome, it might take two days.”

“Don’t bring him to Agleya!” After listening for a long time and still not understanding, cousin Gaul repeatedly reminded, life in Agleya is good enough! They wouldn’t want those troublemakers to destroy their home.

Lynn pressed his forehead: “He won’t come; you should hurry back to the port, isn’t there always a ship coming? Aren’t you busy?”

“Today is not my duty!” His cousin muttered slowly, “Otherwise, why would I be drinking at your place?”

Lynn dragged his cousin out speechlessly: “Go back to your drinking, don’t disturb Hill here.”

Watching them leave, Hill cleaned up some things in the study and returned once more to the stone table in the garden.

He turned his head to glance at the Moonlight Pool and the Gold Thread Hanging Butterfly Tree, thinking the noble guests were likely to arrive soon.

Hill sat quietly, assumed a comfortable posture, and switched the giant screen, which had been playing randomly, to Hidden Town… Given his understanding of the Undead Tribe, Edna’s entanglements with those four mages would surely show up in the Undead Tribe’s footage.

He was right.

On a beautiful lakeside town, along a pretty lakefront avenue, Edna is strolling with a certain mage.

The matching magic books they held revealed that this figure was an esteemed student of Edna’s biological father.

From their cheerful expressions, at least the conversation was harmonious.

But Hill could tell Edna didn’t hold any additional sentiment towards her father’s student… Despite that classically noble, sunlit and handsome face, for Edna, who frequently interacted with the Undead Tribe, she likely became face-blind.

Edna’s dealings with the Undead Tribe for many years had made her indifferent to appearances, only those exceptionally distinctive would catch her eye.

For instance, the Tiger People bodyguard trailing her father’s student.

If the other mages hadn’t quickly surrounded them after discovering the amicable atmosphere, Edna’s glance would have eventually attracted attention… But the Tiger Person had already noticed, sneaking glances at the pretty Human girl, bewildered.

Hill exhaled… At least this adventure team genuinely embarked on an adventure.

As long as Edna didn’t dive in herself, no amount of scheming and machinations from others would matter.

Once Midnight’s memory is restored, there shouldn’t be any more issues… Though Hill always felt she was a bit quirky, he did believe in her feelings for that Grim Reaper Kranvo.

After all, Kranvo offered her an unwavering love that endured through death; those juvenile feelings interwoven with desire wouldn’t sway Midnight at all.

If Midnight were in a desperate escape, she might have been moved by someone fiercely protecting her to abandon the always controversial lover.

But she wasn’t… Edna’s life was indeed quite joyful, either way. When free, she happily collaborates with the White Dragon Queen to collect tolls, her accounting speed outmatching anyone else’s.
