Chapter 72.2: Three Wizards (3)
For the first time, Caenerna showed a surprised expression.
Answer the question.
. . .Yes.
Can you talk about the Emperor?
I cant.
Johan casually placed his longsword on Caenernas shoulder.
It was a warning.
Caenerna shivered at the chill of the metal. She turned her head to look at Johan.
In this warehouse with three wizards, only Johan was not a wizard. Caenerna tried to enchant Johan by any means.
Red hair, crimson eyes. Despite being covered in a robe, Caenerna was a beautiful woman. Combined with her magical power, enchanting people was not a difficult task.
But Johans eyes did not waver.
In his eyes, Caenerna felt the power of a strong soul.
Johans eyes conveyed only one message.
The death of Caenerna.
Why cant you speak?
Probably sworn by mysteries and magic. Unless the Emperor is a fool.
Even a court wizard couldnt fully earn the Emperors trust. Naturally, he would have sworn her to secrecy.
For a wizard, death was preferable to losing magic.
So, may I kill her?
. . .Do you bear a grudge?
No. But theres no good in sparing a wizard. You never know what they might do.
Unlike Gulrak and Suetlg, who were well-versed in magic, Johan, who was not, couldnt help but be wary.
And the best defense was to cut off the opponents head. A dead wizard cant cast spells.
How would you feel if your arms and legs were all tied up?
Id probably secretly untie them and get up, dont you think?
. . .I asked the question wrong. What do you think when you see someone with their arms and legs tied up? They dont seem dangerous, right? Its the same with a wizard.
Suetlg placed a Fire Goblet in front of Caenerna, who looked shocked. With just one Fire Goblet, Caenerna understood everything.
We didnt kill Gairendel. We just took care of the remains.
. . . . . .
Wizards dont usually kill each other. But nothing is absolute. Even the knight here wants to kill you. If you want to live, convince us.
Unlike Johan, Suetlg had no intention of killing Caenerna.
It was too wasteful to just kill such a talent.
This leather will protect you from the cold, and from things like moisture and arrows.
Suetlg was amazed by the surcoat. Gulrak, despite his large build, was known for being stingy. It was unlike him to give away such a treasure so easily.
It was clear that Johan liked it very much.
Come visit my house when youre in the forest.
How should I find it?
Just ask a wolf, and they will lead you there. Be careful, the east is a wild place.
After the conversation, Gulrak picked up a piece of leather and threw it at Suetlg. The leather, seemingly unprocessed and unstitched, left Suetlg bewildered.
Really?
Wrap yourself in it. Itll keep you warm if you sleep under it.
If youre giving me something, at least make it decent!
I have repaid my debt. And Suetlg, if you intended to give me the Fire Goblet with such a story, you should appreciate this leather too.
I didnt know that wizard would come for the Fire Goblet.
Im giving this because of that. Otherwise, you would have gotten nothing.
Gulrak slammed the door harshly. Suetlg, grumbling, wrapped himself in the leather. It definitely felt magical, despite its foul smell.
You have a good friend.
Hes much better to befriend than a wizard like Caenerna. Dont think too poorly of me for sparing Caenernas life. Its more beneficial to keep someone alive, even if they are hard to trust, than to kill them.
I dont think poorly of it.
. . .Right. I worried over nothing!
Johan had said that because he tended to draw his sword at the sight of wizards, but it turned out to be an unnecessary worry.
We will keep this Fire Goblet. Its better to have a way to contact.
Johan accepted the Fire Goblet. It was a bit awkward since Caenerna could contact him but he couldnt do the same. . .
Its surprising that a court wizard has no loyalty.
Do you know why Caenerna gave the Fire Goblet to Gairendel?
?
She must have bribed him. If she found the remains of Karamaf, she planned to steal Karamafs sword and other treasures. Its a treasure worth such a scheme.
. . .!
To steal treasures without reporting to the Emperor.
Its not just a lack of loyalty. . .
To her, everything must be a transaction. The Emperor might think differently, but what can be done about it? If someone is deceived, its their own fault. You might see more wizards in the future, but dont treat them like knights. Youll be betrayed. Loyalty is a difficult virtue to expect from wizards.
But friendship can still be hoped for, right?
Suetlg nodded and smiled at Johans words.
Yes. Friendship is indeed a virtue worth hoping for.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
