The Second Son of The Marquis Runs Away from Home ~ Lacking Talent, He Abandons Everything and Becomes an Adventurer ~ - 137

Chapter 137: Amber-Colored Eyes

After leaving the room, Aria and the others also emerged from the adjacent room.

“Serena, how did it go?”

“None of the three had crystals embedded or any kind of tampering, so the possibility of being manipulated seems low.”

“And this is a copy of the spell written inside the tower.”

I looked through the bundle of papers handed to me by Aria. Although it was indeed a spell, it was written in ancient characters and unfamiliar formats, making it unreadable.

“I don’t understand this either.”

“Yeah, I’ve never heard of a spell using ancient characters… Maybe Philia-san can analyze it.”

“I’ll send a copy to her, but they might move while she’s analyzing it…”

Even with the fastest courier from here to the Beruga Kingdom, it would definitely take at least ten days, and it was clear that they would prepare and cause trouble during that time.

“The situation is more serious than expected… Restricting access to the deepest part is a given, but what should we do about someone capable of defeating Guiron…”

The Guild Master pondered the next moves with a grave expression. I decided to move to send a copy to Philia.

“Guild Master, we’ll prepare to move tomorrow if possible.”

“Thank you, I’ll also call for an emergency assembly of Silver-rank adventurers and above.”

After parting ways with the Guild Master, the three of us worked together to make copies of the spell.

By the time we finished copying and sent it to Philia, the sun was beginning to set…

After finishing our preparations, the three of us walked through the town. Aria sighed as she stretched her neck.

“Sigh… It would have been nice if we could use Sister’s communication crystal.”

“Can’t be helped. There aren’t always relay magic tools available in the sea.”

Philia’s communication crystal had the function of temporarily hijacking surrounding magic tools for relay. While it was common to have magic tools set up on land, such tools were not always available on the sea unless they were loaded onto a ship.

As we talked and walked, something caught the corner of my eye. At the same time, the Chaos Crusader at my waist reacted.

Turning around, I saw that Aria and Serena had also noticed, nodding. When I looked back, I saw a girl with a bow on her back and a hat on her head being harassed by adventurers.

“You’ve got a bulky bow for such a cute face, miss. If you’re going to be an adventurer, I’ll let you join my party… I’ll teach you everything you need to know, okay?”

The warrior who was harassing her blushed, and his companions laughed. Perhaps it was because they were drunk, but judging from their behavior, they seemed to have had a bad upbringing from the start.

Feeling a sense of foreboding, I tried to intervene, and when the girl’s eyes met mine, she made a ring with her finger towards the man who was harassing her.

The restrained finger broke free and hit the man’s forehead. The man who had been “boinked” on the forehead fell backward with a sound like a whip cracking.

Even his laughing companions were stunned by the sudden turn of events, and while they were still bewildered, the girl’s sharp fist struck one of them in the solar plexus, causing him to collapse in agony.

The girl brushed off the dust with her hand and approached us with firm steps, then looked up at me again with her amber-colored eyes.

“…Found it, Chaos Crusader.”

From the bow the girl carried on her back, I could feel the presence of a rare drop…
