Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 282 Lies

The wizards of the Principality of Kema were subtly polite to Thor, whether out of respect for the power of the wizarding tower behind him or for some other reason, it was unclear.

Because Yura was throwing a tantrum and locking herself in her single carriage, they invited Saul to rest in their carriage for a while.

But Thor is now just one step away from becoming a Level 3 apprentice and has no interest in socializing with others.

"Thank you, but no need. Could you please tell me what happened?"

However, Brie hesitated.

Just then, a bird's cry came from the sky, and almost everyone raised their chins to look up at the sky.

Not long after, a huge, dark brown eagle-like bird descended from the sky.

It hovered for a moment, about ten meters above the ground. The person on the bird's back didn't dismount, but instead leaned out and said to Thor on the ground, "That guy's run away again. Do you know where he'll go?"

Thor shook his head.

Kira curled his lip. "What's Kismet doing in the Western Continent? He's like a vulture drawn to blood, so annoying!"

"So you know his name!" Thor thought to himself. "Then why do you call him Silver Hair? Kismet is probably going to be driven crazy by you."

She then asked Saul, "How did you end up with him?"

"After I escaped from the small town..."

"Bang!" The carriage door was pushed open again and slammed hard against the carriage frame.

"This is a matter for our Wizard Tower, it's none of your business, you outsider!" Lady Yura was still inside the doll's body.

Although she could only blink and move her mouth, and her facial expression was stiff, the chill emanating from her body still made those around her clearly feel her anger.

Only Kira dared to challenge her. "Those dozen princesses from the Knaus marriage alliance entered this town, and now they're nothing but bones. Of course I'm going to find Thor and get to the bottom of this! Even if Gorza were here, he wouldn't say a word. If you dare to act recklessly again, I'll smash your shell in two!"

Yura was so angry that her joints were making terrible creaking sounds, but she really didn't say anything more.

The power of a second-tier formal wizard is no joke.

Thor quickly recounted what he had experienced since entering the town, picking out the parts he could tell.

The court wizards of the Principality of Kema, who were standing nearby, also felt a chill run down their spines upon hearing this.

The Wizard Tower has actually lost one level two apprentice and two level three apprentices this time!

Fortunately, they waited until Grand Duke Kira arrived before coming to the town to pick them up.

If someone had been in a hurry and had come last night, they would probably have become part of this blood-red town.

But by the end, they began to question the parts of Saul's explanation that were not entirely clear.

"Lord Thor, since that little girl named Penny tricked others into going to their deaths, why would she be willing to send you out?" the court wizard Brie asked.

His expression remained respectful, but the suspicion in his tone was quite evident.

Saul wasn't angry; he knew that any normal person would be suspicious.

"Firstly, I've already realized that the so-called escape route is actually a trap; she can't fool me. Secondly, I've reached a deal with her in exchange for my freedom."

Another court wizard frowned, clearly disbelieving, his expression unfriendly. He was about to speak when Kira interrupted him again.

"Alright, he's an apprentice personally taught by Gorza. What's the point of asking so many questions?"

The moment Gorza's name was mentioned, the room fell silent.

This person is a top-tier second-tier wizard in the Western Continent. Most importantly, he's incredibly unreasonable!

Let alone concealing the truth, even if the entire town belonged to Soltu, who would dare to say anything?

"What you need to be concerned about is already clear. Their princess went in after Thor. Whether they were tricked into going in or went there willingly, it doesn't matter much. They're all definitely dead now anyway. Tell the people from the Duchy of Knath to go back and tell their Grand Duke that if they want to stall for time, they shouldn't send the princess, but send some real gold and silver instead. If they want to vent their anger on someone, let them go find Kismet, a wandering second-level official wizard."

Kira glanced at Thor again, clearly knowing that he was hiding something.

But no matter what despicable means Thor used, or whether he lied to hide his gains, it made no difference to Kira.

Gorza's attitude last time was very clear; he values ​​Thor highly.

Kira has no reason to make things difficult for Thor for the sake of a princess from an enemy country.

"I'm going back. You guys clean this place up and don't let the pollution spread!" Kira said, gently patting the bird's back.

The giant bird let out another long cry and flapped its wings, flying away from Mofan Town.

The remaining people looked at Thor with some fear in their eyes.

They were not afraid of Thor, but of Gorza behind him.

The first to speak, the wizard Brie, now stood opposite Thor, feeling as if countless insects were crawling all over him.

"If there's nothing else, I'll be going now." Thor maintained his smile as he bid farewell to the people of the Principality of Kema.

The atmosphere on the other side immediately became much more relaxed, and everyone present wanted to clap and cheer as they saw them off.

To ease tensions, the wizard Brie offered to give Saul a more luxurious carriage.

However, Thor refused.

Saul walked back to the carriage and looked at Mrs. Yura, whose face was still full of displeasure. Angry women are not to be trifled with.

He composed himself and asked respectfully, "Vinnie, shall we go back now? I'd like to explain the details of the town to you."

Thor's subtext: There are some things I can't tell others, but I need to explain to Yora.

The doll's tense lips suddenly relaxed considerably. She tilted her head slightly, and two words escaped from her lips: "Come up!"

Before leaving, Saul entrusted the old madman to the wizard Brie.

In order to ease the tension that just happened, Brie will surely take good care of the old madman.

Although it may not cure his mental illness, it is certain that he will be well-off for the rest of his life.

Although Saul is of higher status than Bree, he is certainly inferior to Bree in handling worldly affairs.

He also specifically instructed Brie not to give the old madman any fancy things, and to let him live a peaceful life as much as possible.

The wizard Brie took the disheveled old madman from Thor's hands, promising to do everything Thor had asked of him.

As Thor turned to leave, he suddenly heard the old madman mutter a low voice.

"The butterfly... flew away."

Thor paused for a moment, and Penny's image flashed through his mind.

He closed his eyes briefly, and when he took another step, his face had returned to calm.

The carriage then started moving, but not to return to the Wizard's Tower.

They need to go to Blackburg first to deal with Mochi Mochi's legacy.

In the car, Saul recounted the deaths of Mochi Mochi and Angela to Yura in detail, emphasizing that Billy might have a hard time escaping the town.

"Madam, did you see Billy escape outside the city?"

"I saw it," Yura admitted directly. "It was because when Billy came out, Wright and I were near the city gate that Wright was dragged into Sailtown by Billy."

So Wright was dragged to his death by Billy?

The people of the Principality of Kema have already checked and there are no survivors in the town. Although the blood and flesh contamination in the town is currently confined within the city walls, it will quickly spread if not handled carefully, and then it will cause a huge bloody panic.

It wouldn't be surprising if a curse that even a third-level wizard apprentice couldn't escape wiped out a large town.

So while Thor and his group were leaving, the people of the Principality of Kema were still busy.

"Did Billy escape?"

"He ran away. After using Wright as a scapegoat, he didn't dare to see me and ran away on his own." Yura said nonchalantly, fiddling with the ruffled hem of her doll maid's skirt. "Actually, I don't care. Anyway, I've already done everything that needed Wright."

Thor lowered his eyes.

He'd encountered situations before where someone was used as a scapegoat to escape. If he hadn't remained vigilant and prepared a counter-attack strategy, he might not even be sitting in this carriage today!

That's basically how it is in the wizarding world; people either pursue knowledge or they pursue profit.

Those who pursue knowledge are willing to die for it, while those who pursue profit are willing to make others die for it.
