NovelEnglishChapter 26.2: Tair Bamon (3)
Then I, too, had a chance to obtain that mystery.
A mystery that amplifies your senses and reflexes.
That was a very useful skill for me.
In the past, it would have been useless since my body wouldn’t follow me at all, but now I had the floating tent.
Now that I had a means to counter the opponent’s attack, the senses and reflexes to use it swiftly were also important.
It was the same even when he thought about the time the Orc King attacked me before.
Even though the distance was quite far, the Orc King’s was right in front of my nose in the blink of an eye.
Had I been a little late in opening the veil, one of its heavy fists would have shattered my body.
It’s only level 70, but what about the monsters that are much higher than that? What about the other Lords?
If they attacked me with hostility, I would die before I could even open the veil in response, unless I was far away.
Or there was a risk of being ambushed or sniped by an opponent who was hiding somewhere or was very far away.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhat’s the use of an absolute defense if my throat was cut before I could even use it?
There must have been a huge gap between the speed of the superhumans of this world and my cognitive ability.
Of course, I was excited because I didn’t know whether Lian had obtained a mystery yet.
I couldn’t ask that outright, so I implied using another question.
“If you’ve been wandering around the continent, have you ever found something like a dungeon? Or a place where ruins are hidden.”
“You mean dungeons or ruins. I’ve been looking for them, but unfortunately I haven’t found one yet. Ah, I just remembered a story…”
Then, with an expression as if thinking of something, Lian took something out of his bosom.
An old-looking parchment that was rolled up.
He said with a laugh.
“This is the map I bought at the antique shop I stopped by in the city before, but the owner said it might be a treasure map pointing to where the ruins are hidden.”
“…!”
I hid my surprise and looked at the map. No way?
It was to the point where I wondered if there was such a coincidence in such a perfect situation.
“It’s absurd. I tried to open it for no reason, but tore it up a little, so I was forced to buy it for a few silver coins. But since I bought it, I thought I’d visit it as it was on the map, so I was heading there.”
“Can I look?”
“As much as you like.”
Lian obediently handed me the parchment and turned his attention back to the chicken.
I slowly unfolded it and examined it.
A map so crude and sloppy that I couldn’t believe that the contents were real.
The location showed by the map was a place between the Fifth and Fourth Lords’ territories, but there was a strange code-like character written on it.
No matter how I looked at it, it looked like scribbled garbage..
After examining the map, I turned my attention back to Lian.
Anyway, if this was a map that would lead me to the place where the real mystery was hidden, as I remembered, and if I get that mystery.
It did not differ from swallowing the mystery he would have gained in the future.
“I will buy this map again. Do you intend to sell it?”
“…Yes?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLian looked at me in surprise.
Then he immediately clapped his hand and said.
“Sheesh, no. If you’re interested, just take it. I’ve also received favors from the young master.”
“…Don’t you think this could be a map where a real ancient artifact is hidden?”
“Then there’s nothing special. If you really find even an ancient magic artifact, young master, please use it favorably, haha.”
He didn’t even seem to think that this was really a treasure map.
…Even so, my conscience stings a little to be honest.
But I couldn’t be arguing about that right now.
If I was going to feel guilty every time something like this happened in the first place, I would not be able to properly use the knowledge of the future.
After I got the map and we finished our meal, we said goodbye to him in front of the store.
“Then thank you, young master. I’ll go first.”
I turned my body and looked at his back as he moved his steps, and I fell into trouble for a moment.
Could we just end this meeting like this?
The future war between neutral countries was an event that had a significant impact on the power structure of Calderic and Santea.
There’s nothing I could do about it by meddling in it right now. In the first place, I had my own problems to deal with, so I didn’t have time to care…
