Chapter 132: Journey to the Magic Continent

“No wonder we couldn’t figure out what was happening here.”

After conveying the contents of the letter to Aria and the others, Aria muttered with a stern expression. At that moment, Philia started rummaging through the pile of luggage in the corner of the room.

“I’m sure it’s around here somewhere…”

What Philia picked up was a crystal with an engraving. As she infused it with magic, it began to shine, creating a halo of light.

“Philia, what’s wrong?”

“That magical tool…”

The light formed the face of Victoria, and her voice resonated. I had seen it before in the Empire, but I hadn’t expected it to work from such a distance, all the way from the kingdom.

“Yes, that’s right. I applied and improved the technology used in that helmet to the device.”

“Technology?”

“We couldn’t analyze everything, but for now, we managed to pull out part of the function of influencing the wearer with magic from the helmet’s magic and added a function to relay magic signals to existing magical tools to overcome the distance.”

Adding that there would be more noise the farther away it got, we were amazed.

“…Does that mean…”

“…Depending on how it’s used, it could make magical tools go berserk or stop functioning.”

“…And with Berg and Aria here, is this an urgent matter?”

My brother was also taken aback by Philia’s expertise in magical tool creation, but Victoria’s voice brought us back to reality, explaining the situation.

Victoria fell silent for a moment and then looked at me.

“I feel like it’s too obvious, but there are no other clues. Rather than idly contemplating, it’s better to take action. What do you think?”

“I agree. Besides, with Berg’s current status, we might be able to negotiate with Clangrulls to some extent.”

“This is all thanks to Berg’s outstanding reputation. There might even be a chance to cooperate with Clangrulls.”

“…Shall we proceed to the Magic Continent for now?”

Sensing the conversation might become uncomfortable, I tried to change the subject, and both my brother and Victoria nodded.

“However, not everyone should go. We still don’t know how many of their people are involved… Naturally, I can’t send Bardle or Philia either.”

“I’m sorry, but I can’t go either. The domestic situation is still unstable, and I also have to accompany Lord Bardle and Lady Philia.”

Following Victoria, Rakul also explained his reasons. Indeed, there was still no certainty that Fifth’s operatives were gone, and considering this incident, I wanted Rakul, aside from my brother, to remain.

“For now, it’ll be me, Aria, and Serena heading there. We’ll report the situation as it unfolds and request reinforcements if necessary. How does that sound?”

Everyone agreed to my proposal, and without delay, we quickly prepared to head to the Magic Continent. We rushed to the port city aboard Galmal…
