Heavenly Inquisition Sword Chapter 1388

Episode 1388. God come quickly

The place Elio headed to was the Tabula Magic Tower.

The guard who recognized him opened the door without a word.

It was dark but it was only 5 o’clock.

The inside of the Magic Tower was bright as day with lights using mana stones in each hallway.

After a while the guide waiting on the first floor led him to the magic engineering laboratory on the sixth floor.

After darkness fell the magic engineering lab was crowded with magic engineers unlike a city with no people.

Count Kaby Crazer the head of the laboratory who discovered Elio rushed over.

“Your Excellency Count Lagoa.”

He didn’t dare ask about his business and just rolled his eyes.

I was even more careful because I knew that the tower owner had run away from him.

Elio first looked around at the magic engineers.

As expected there was no Megistus.

“I heard that a magic engineer named Megistus is in the Tabula Magic Tower.”

For a moment relief appeared in Count Kavi Crazer’s eyes.

Because he realized that he had not come to ask for his sins.

“Are you looking for Megistus?”

“yes.”

“He has been conducting experiments outside for over ten years.”

“I heard he discovered an ancient magic lab and lives there.”

“Yes it is.”

“Do you know where the ancient magic laboratory is?”

“Wizards never reveal their private laboratories to others.”

That was true.

The wizard’s experiments did not discriminate between legal and illegal.

As a result the wizard kept his personal laboratory secret until his death.

“Is there a magician who is close to Megistus?”

“There is probably no one closer than me.”

“If the director doesn’t know it would be useless to ask other magic engineers.”

“Yes.”

“How do I meet Megistus?”

Elio gazed at Count Cavy Crazer.

He already knew this from the owner of the tower but he only asked to confirm.

“He comes once a month to report on the work situation. “There is research entrusted to him at our horse engineering research institute.”

Elio knew it was because of the Soul Stone but she didn’t dig into it.

This is because her goal is to meet him not to study him.

“okay. When can I come and meet him?”

“It usually arrives at the end of the month or at the beginning of the month at the latest so it should arrive within three or four days.”

“All right. I’ll come back then. Don’t tell Megistus that I came to see him. “You know what I mean right?”

Count Kavi Crazer shrugged his shoulders at Count Lagoa’s cool gaze.

“Yes but can you tell me what you are looking for him for?”

“It’s a personal matter so don’t bother to find out.”

“Oh yeah.”

Count Kavi Crazer thought ‘It looks like Count Lagoa is trying to request something from Megistus.’

Otherwise he would have no reason to secretly search for the magic engineer.

Elio gave her lab director another warning before turning around.

Count Cavy Crazer who had been groveling at his waist began to purr as soon as Count Lagoa left.

“You go to the magic tower for personal reasons. I think the Magic Tower is a place where there is nothing to do. Since the owner of the tower is not there dogs and cows come and go as if they were his own house.”

Of course I’m saying this for no reason because I’m embarrassed to have been groveling.

***

Fabian said as Elio returned to her lodgings and sat blankly by her window.

“I guess you didn’t show up today?”

“uh.”

“Don’t be too disappointed. It will appear within three or four days. Are you saying I have to hand over the Soul Stone or something to the Tabula Magic Tower?”

“I’m wondering if I’m making a mistake because things are suddenly going smoothly.”

“Are you feeling sober? How much trouble did we have to find the sacred place of chaos? Count Omar and Howard Crea are still investigating the Southern Kingdom. “After the hard work of many people we finally got here.”

“Is that so?”

“Is that so? “Please do not doubt the efforts of Count Lagoa and all of us.”

“And what if Megistus is not the vanguard of chaos?”

“Or we have to go looking for the real thing again. “You’re not going to give up are you?”

Elio chuckled at those words.

“Yes you are right. Otherwise you can find it again.”

“But I feel like Megistus is at the forefront of chaos.”

“really?”

“I’m sure. Think about what is intensifying this war. Aren’t they all magic tower techniques? I believe the vanguard of chaos is hiding in the Magic Tower.”

“It seems like that too….”

Elio trailed off her words.

He tried not to get excited.

There is nothing more frustrating than when expectations are violated.

At that time someone knocked on the door.

Elio and Fabian looked at each other with puzzled faces.

Who is coming this night?

Fabian suddenly checked the time and stood up with a embarrassed look on his face.

“It’s only 6 o’clock. “It was so dark I thought it was 12 o’clock at night.”

Soon after he opened the door and the inn manager held out something and said.

“A little while ago a man left me to deliver this to Baron Cloud.”

What was in the manager’s hand was a sealed letter.

Fabian who received the letter did not move from his spot for a long time.

Elio who was worse off said something.

“Aren’t you reading?”

“I’m too scared to open it.”

“Do you still have any regrets about Lord Sarah?”

“It’s not like that… my heart is shaking.”

“Shall I read it to you?”

“I want to do that too but… I think this is what I have to do.”

Finally Fabian carefully cut the seal with a dagger.

However he could not bring himself to take out the contents.

“Stop shaking and take a quick look. “I’m curious too.”

Fabian who had been standing around fiddling with the letter seemed to have made up his mind and took out the contents.

Elio looked at Fabian’s face.

However it was difficult to guess the content of the letter just by looking at the expression.

After a while Fabian said ‘Ha!’ And he let out a long breath.

Elio pretended it was no big deal.

“So what do you say? Will you forgive me? “Are we never going to see each other again?”

“I would forgive you if you could only love yourself for the rest of your life. “If you’re not confident about it don’t appear in front of me.”

“He’s a good person. So what do you want to do?”

“I don’t know.”

“I don’t know? “Is it because I don’t know about my cheating?”

“Honestly I thought Lord Sarah had forgotten about me too. So he was able to meet other women.”

“What are you talking about? So you’re saying you like Lord Serra? “Are you saying you don’t like it?”

“It’s not that I don’t like it. However I don’t know if my feelings are due to guilt or because I still have feelings for Lord Sarah.”

“There’s a saying in my hometown. The space between people is like a path in the forest. “If you don’t come and go often you’ll get buried in the weeds.”

“Is love enough to be buried in weeds?”

“Well you’ll know when you pull up the weeds. “Is it love or guilt?”

Fabian who had been silent for a while spoke in a resolute tone.

“I think I should return to the Escatos Kingdom Army.”

“Well thought out. “A knight of the Kingdom of Escatos must not turn a blind eye to the crisis in the kingdom.”

It was better for Fabian to return to the Escatos Kingdom army in case he inherited his territory in the future.

“I wanted to serve the Count until the end… I’m sorry.”

“are you okay. You’ve had a hard time following me around. Don’t die. “If you die there will be no one to pass on my territory to later.”

“Don’t worry. Do you think I who survived the Sky Castle and the Abyss will die on the Northern Front? “Please don’t go back to your hometown without telling me Count.”

“I’m not that loyal a person. “I’m going to have a farewell party before I leave.”

Fabian laughed heartily at Count Lagoa’s foolish joke.

The next day.

After finishing breakfast Fabian left the inn with Elio seeing him off.

Elio went to the window of the accommodation again and watched the Tabula Magic Tower.

As he remained alone the experiences he had experienced when he first came to Hirhera came back to him.

There were meetings with many people including Fabian.

Some of them became enemies and some became good friends.

Although he was called the upper world he was no different from Gangho the lower world.

Looking back the Savior’s life was like that.

Then I don’t know why there is a need to distinguish between the lower and upper worlds.

‘Maybe struggle is the fate of living things…’

He felt a little frustrated that the wise Nangungyeon would know the perfect answer to that question but he could only guess like he was touching a blind elephant.

All day long he watched Tabula Matab but Megistus did not come.

He said another day passed and another day passed.

As five days passed Elio slowly became anxious.

But she said there was nothing else he could do other than ‘wait’.

‘Let’s see who wins.’

Elio now ignores the date and she decides to wait.

She didn’t know that perhaps as the war intensified there was a problem with the creation of the Soul Stone.

Goliath is a major axis of the Empire’s military power.

Even if it was late Megistus would appear at the Tabula Tower holding the Soul Stone.

***

Somewhere in imperial territory.

At that time Megistus was secretly meeting with the person in charge of Thrano Kobolorum (the black goblin).

“The number of wild people is absurdly insufficient. “Why don’t you keep your promise?”

Maggie Stuth glared at the middle-aged man with cold eyes.

When the soul of a living being is placed in a special crystal made through alchemy it becomes a soul stone.

Soul stones were initially made using beasts.

Then due to limitations in intelligence they were replaced with beastmen but the beastmen were difficult to capture.

Although it is difficult to find a village of beastmen their fighting ability is excellent and they cause great damage.

Compared to beastmen wildmen were not difficult to capture.

This is because the Yain village was relatively widely known and its fighting power was minimal.

Grayzone a middle-aged man spoke as if making an excuse.

“There is nothing we can do Archmage. All borders of the Imperial Territory are blocked… Even if you capture wild people you cannot transport them. “We can bring in one or two people by hiding them like we do now but any more than that is unreasonable.”

For some reason Gray Zone had a hard time calling the magic engineer Megistus an archmage.

“Shut up! Whether you give money to the border guards or threaten them that’s up to you. Supply the wildlings as before. “If we are not able to fill 10 people within three days… we will fill the empty seats with you.”

“That…”

“What is that? “Do you think I can’t do it?”

Megistus looked at Gray Zone with shiny eyes like a snake.

Grayzone who was turning white with fear managed to say.

“Ha I will.”

“Well thought out.”

As he said this Maggie Stuth waved her hand as if she was annoyed.

Gray John jumped up from his seat bowed his waist violently and then walked backwards.

Megistus left alone in his room clicked his tongue and muttered.

“Tsk tsk! “I’m starting to get nagging for no reason because of these timid people.”

I brought you the Soul Stone at the beginning of the month at the latest but seven days have already passed.

If you receive ten wild men three days later it will take fifteen days for the promised amount of soul stones to be created.

That’s a whopping 15 days later than usual.

Meggy Stuth who was shaking his head suddenly looked up at the sky.

It’s only 3 p.m. but it’s already getting dark.

“Isand Thule Barsti.”

It was a saying in the demon language ‘God come quickly.’
