“Returning will be tough. Carlos is highly suspicious and will doubt you too.”
Lou placed her hand on Hayden’s.
“I still wanted to try with my own power.”
“Yes, I know. But I also wouldn’t have let you do it alone.”
Both people in the dark laboratory and several glass jars vanished at the same time.
[Star Icon]Emperor Perseta and Rustica Gennes reappeared in the western Perseta, Matop, more than 12 hours after they had disappeared.
Frankly, Roderick Keller and Garnet de Jewel were worried sick that Lou had drawn up an absurd plan and rushed to Caleta. They wondered if they had pushed a perfectly good talent to the edge, yet Master Matop was quite excited.
“Roderick, can you bring me some paper? I need it for research. And ink too. Garnet?”
“Yes, Master!”
While answering busily, Garnet looked at Roderick and asked him with her eyes.
“Is this all okay now?”
“Maybe.”
Rodric shrugged, unable to hide the look of helplessness on his face.
At least the master regained his spirit; that must be a good thing for now. He was merely holding his breath, hoping that the anticipation would bear fruit. No, honestly, they had waited too long and were worn out when the Emperor and Riga returned.
“Welcome, Your Imperial Majesty. Lady Gennes.”
First, they greeted the two and observed the Emperor and Riga’s new appearances.
“Wow.”
Garnet’s mouth dropped open. Rodric had something he wanted to say, but as a former Imperial Knight, he kept his mouth shut.
“Upon seeing it again, that Kaleta outfit is really… I’ll bring you new clothes.”
However, Garnet de Jule, who came from a noble background, had to speak her mind, even before His Imperial Majesty. Riga and Hayden, forced into their heavy Kaleta and guardsman outfits, could not refute her words.
“Isn’t it rather splendid?”
“Next time you buy new clothes, be sure to ask me, Rodric.”
Garnet said as she hurried toward the magic circle.
“Lord Kellahan, do you have clean white cloth? It’s to cover a corpse.”
Rodric looked at the glass jars behind the Emperor and immediately turned around.
“I’ll fetch it right away, Your Majesty. The master is waiting inside.”
But Ophelia opened the door even before his words were finished.
“What happened?”
Rodric stuck out his tongue and went to get the cloth to cover the corpse. Ophelia’s blue eyes gazed at the Emperor and Riga, and the enormous tragedy they had brought with them.
“Oh.”
Ophelia covered her mouth with her hand and looked at the glass jars. Her expression twisted in agony.
“Oh, dear.”
She stepped forward. Riga watched, clutching his heavy velvet pouch, as the elegant Western Sage looked painfully into the glass jars.
Like Hayden, she seemed to know who the children in these jars were. Ophelia, who was mourning and grieving while recalling old memories, quietly asked.
“Are these all the remaining children, Your Majesty?”
“Yes, that’s correct, Ophelia.”
“Out of forty-seven, only five returned.”
Ophelia’s face was filled with despair.
“It’s not five, it’s six. Didn’t I also not return?”
Hayden quietly comforted her.
