Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 899 Departure

"Keri, why don't we just go and tell Gorza about this? Will he believe it if we just pass him a note?" Char asked Keri, puzzled, as he leaned against the tree.

Char's current state is strange; he is surrounded by brown branches that extend to the large tree behind him and into the soil below.

Char now looks like a marionette with a hundred strings attached to it.

But in fact, these roots are not controlling Char; in fact, they are being controlled by Char.

Keli hid behind a rock. In fact, they couldn't see Gorsa from their position, and he shouldn't be able to see them in the dense forest either, but she still carefully hid.

"Right now, there's more than one force watching Lord Gorsata, both openly and secretly. If we appear directly in front of him, it will easily expose our purpose. So we can't show ourselves. We just need to find a way to alert him with an unusual phenomenon, and then take advantage of the chaos to rescue Grand Duke Kira. That's our most important mission."

Keli explained in detail, carefully and even somewhat excessively.

But for some reason, Xia felt that Klee's explanation was just a cover-up—that she was afraid of Gorza.

"Is this really necessary?" Char asked, peering through the treetop of the large tree he was connected to at the distant Gorza.

He had heard of Gorza's name when he was still a living first-tier wizard, but he had never actually seen him. Today, he was watching him from afar.

It doesn't seem as powerful as the rumors suggest!

However, considering that Gorsa may have been hurt by his failure to get promoted, perhaps he is intentionally keeping a low profile.

Didn't you notice that he didn't use witchcraft to travel, and even his attire was ordinary?

Just as Xia was staring at Gorza's figure, pondering who was stronger between him and Thor, he suddenly felt a shiver run through his body.

Char subconsciously withdrew his gaze and returned to his puppet-like body.

"Did someone just spot us?" he asked Claire hastily, looking like a frightened groundhog.

Claire was silent for a moment, then said, "You've probably been found out."

"How could that be..." Xia was about to retort instinctively, but he quickly came to his senses, or rather, his paranoia kicked in again. "Could it be that we've already been discovered? Or is this all a trap, just to lure us in?"

Klee couldn't resist throwing a stick from behind the rock at Char's head, but it was brushed away by the small leaves that automatically grew from Char's head.

"Don't jump to conclusions!" Claire gasped. "Whoever noticed you, let's move on right now."

After saying that, Klee didn't wait for Xia and turned to run. Xia quickly tore off the branches covering him and buried himself in the ground.

In a small village across a hillside in the distance, Gorsa stood there hesitant.

"Should we go find Yura, or go find the Upside-Down Tree first?"

I feel like I shouldn't miss either of them.

"Never mind, the Upside-Down Tree seems to have some connection with Thor, I'll have him send me a copy later."

Gorsa vaguely recalled hearing about Thor's two visits to Bydon College, and temporarily abandoned the idea of ​​uprooting the upside-down tree that had somehow appeared there.

Passing through the small village and entering the capital of Kema, you can see the ancient castle that has stood on the mountain for many years.

The sisters Yura and Kira should be there.

Gorsa stood at the foot of the mountain, looking up at the palace, yet he felt as if he were standing on a cloud, looking down on all living beings.

"You've been dawdling for so long, haven't you finished setting everything up? And everyone who was supposed to come has arrived, right?"

Gorsara pulled down the hood of her cloak, hiding the upper half of her face in shadow.

Where others cannot see, the shadows stir, throb, and desperately...endure.

……

Thor has returned from the Chaotic Realm. This time, he will not stay there for too long because he needs to keep a close eye on the situation of Xia and Midor and cannot afford to lose contact for an extended period.

As soon as I returned to the Wizarding World today, before I even entered the Chromatic Channel, I heard the butler knocking on the door.

"Lord Tower Master, there is an encrypted letter for you."

Thor pushed open the door and stepped out, somewhat surprised. Who would write to him at this time?

In his memory, only Claire and Kismet had written him letters.

Saul reached out and took the letter. The envelope was blank. He looked it over twice, but there was no recipient's name written on it.

"It's a message dictated to you by the messenger," the butler Hope explained, bowing.

Where are they?

"I had just received the letter when the recipient turned to ashes in the sunlight." Hope's expression remained unchanged, as if he had received similar letters before.

"Guess who sent you the letter?" Saul noticed the butler's composure.

"If you want me to guess, it should be someone from Radiance." Hope leaned forward slightly, then took a step back, indicating that she wouldn't peek.

Thor immediately opened the letter, and sure enough, it was from the Radiant Family. To Thor's surprise, the writer was none other than Norton, the patriarch of the Radiant Family!

Thor had just finished reading the contents when a sense of surprise quietly rose within him. But when he tried to read it a second time, the letter turned to ashes as well.

Thor squinted slightly, pondering the contents of the letter, and gently rubbed his fingertips to shake off the dust clinging to them.

A moment later, Thor opened his eyes and immediately beckoned the butler over.

"Pack your things, Byron and I are going to the Duchy of Kema." After saying that, Thor turned around and went into the room, slamming the door shut.

The butler had no idea what had happened, but he was still somewhat anxious when he heard that Thor was going to leave the No Man's Land.

As the steward of the Wizarding Tower, he had a general understanding of everything going on. If Thor were to openly leave the No Man's Land for Kerma at this time, the Inquisition would surely come and take him away once they discovered it.

Could it be that the Glorious Family promised to help Thor get rid of the Tribunal's entanglement?

But is the tribunal such an easy force to get rid of?

But no matter what Hope thought, he couldn't go against the Tower Master's opinion. Besides, Thor had just made his decision and immediately returned to his room, not giving him a chance to offer any suggestions.

He went downstairs with a heavy heart, then grabbed a passing wizard and said, "Mings, go and prepare the carriages and horses for the Tower Master to go to the capital of Kema tomorrow."

Mings stumbled as he was pulled, exclaiming in surprise, "Didn't the Tower Master just return less than two months ago? Why is he going out again?"

"That's not your question." Hope successfully transmitted her inner turmoil to the next person, then clapped her hands and left satisfied.

Mings was very efficient; that very evening, he had prepared the carriages for Saul and Byron. Following the detailed instructions he later learned, he carefully added concealing magical arrays to the carriages.

Upon learning that the luggage was ready, Thor took Byron and left the Spirit Cleansing Wizard Tower that very night.

This time, instead of taking the original exit located in the Valley of Fallen Hands, they chose another exit that was farther away from the Principality of Kema.

Furthermore, the carriage had no markings of the Spirit Cleansing Wizard Tower and its appearance was very understated.

The night was deep, the moonlight was hazy, and the chirping of insects was sparse.

It's a good time to travel quietly.

Byron sat in the swaying carriage, watching the driver and Saul leaning expressionlessly against the wall, and frowned as he asked, "Why are you in such a hurry to get to the Duchy of Kema? And why did you make me bring...?"

Saul raised his hand, stopping Byron from continuing.

"The things were already prepared, just lacking an opportunity. Now that the opportunity has come knocking, we should seize the moment."

"But..." Byron wasn't one to ask many questions, but he genuinely didn't know what Thor was planning. Thinking about what he carried, and that terrifying thing from the Chaotic Realm, he couldn't help but feel uneasy.

"Don't ask, senior." Thor opened his eyes, turned his head to look at Byron, "The less you know, the better."
