Chapter 63 The Messages



I opened my eyes.

Standing quietly, the light from the magic circle around me slowly began to disappear. The light came from Nya Nu's teleportation magic circle.

To make sure that the coordinates of the teleportation magic that Nya Nu used were correct, I double-checked where we were.

I paid attention to the place where I was.

Under my feet was a dirt path.

It seemed that we hadn't gotten lost. We were still heading in the right direction.

"Fwaaah! This is so tiring, Master!"

"Don't complain. We're not there yet."

Nya Nu whined like a baby. He pulled down the hood of the robe he had been wearing. A skull appeared from deep inside his hood. He was like a real person who was tired.

According to his explanation, the Teleportation magic he used had some limitations, either his spell was bad, or maybe it was because he was incapable of utilizing the spell to the fullest, one of the two answers must be true.

Teleportation magic.

In addition to the massive use of Mana, he also had to know exactly the purpose of teleportation magic.

As a hikikomori Lich, there was no way he could take me to Burgenfield city because he had never been there. However, there was a way for him to know the exact coordinates.

He used mind-reading magic on me. He saw my memory of the coordinates of Burgenfield city and the path to take, then he applied it to the teleportation magic spell.

I wasn't worried that he would play with fire using mind-reading magic, because he was bound to my Mind's Puppet skill. Moreover, he only saw the memories that I pointed at, not my entire memory.

Using the memories I had from my previous life, I managed to give him the right coordinates.

And that's how we both kept going from place to place.

Because he could only cover the maximum distance according to his mana capacity and spell ability, Nya Nu could not teleport directly to Burgenfield City.

Every time he used Teleportation magic, he had to stop for a while, replenish his Mana, then use Teleportation Magic again.

It seemed inefficient because we had to stop every time we teleported. But that way I calculated that we would be able to cover the distance that usually took weeks in just a few days.

"Has your mana recovered?"

"Can we rest a little longer, Master?!"

"It's already been a few hours."

I forced him to get up to use Teleportation Magic again.

Each break would take a few hours, so it wasn't a long or fast time.

Just like that, after performing teleportation magic several times, we were finally close enough to Burgenfield City.

***

One week had passed.

Nya Nu stopped not far from Burgenfield city, where I could see the great wall of Burgenfield city.

I chose to stop and rest before actually entering Burgenfield city.

The sun was about to disappear into the west. That meant it was almost night. Apart from the fact that it was about to get dark, I chose to stop because I wanted to look like an ordinary traveler.

Just to be on the safe side, I had put Nya Nu into the Stigma of Darkness.

Then I set up camp and lit a bonfire. I chose a place not far from the main roads to Burgenfield city.

Certainly not paved roads. Although the main road leads to the big city, the roads outside the city are still made of smoothed dirt.

Sitting in front of the bonfire, I opened the Inventory and took out the Communication Crystal Ball.

I took out two Communication Crystal Balls. One was the Communication Crystal Ball I got from the Black Box Organization headquarters, which was connected with Solemn and Gil, while the other was a gift from Callie.

I wanted to see if there were any messages from them.

After I took it out, I channeled Mana into the two Communication Crystal Balls. In an instant, the two Communication Crystal Balls immediately released a message.

The first thing I saw was the Communication Crystal Ball that I got from the Black Box Organization headquarters

First, a message came from Solemn.

Line after line of text flooding on top of the Communication Crystal Ball was read by my eyes.

[I organized everyone according to what you wanted, sir.

I was trying to build our headquarters better with the money you gave me. I also told the members to follow the rules you made earlier. It seemed that they won't dare to defy your orders, but I didn't know what will happen later. Even so, I will keep an eye on them.

And as for the children who were previously kidnapped, and imprisoned, and some who are still under the influence of drugs, I had been taking good care of them, sir.

~Solemn.]

I didn't have much hope at first, but from the message she sent, it seemed that Solemn had done a good job.

If the message he had sent didn't match the facts or was just something he had made up, I could kill him later.

I hope Gil would be able to make Solemn work well.

The balance of power was important. Even though Gil had no power, he still had Baron Warwick behind him, and Solemn wouldn't dare to mess around while Gil was watching. That was the reason why I had told Gil about Solemn.

And vice versa.

Gil would not do strange things when he knew that the members of the Black Box Organization Ryam City Branch were under my control.

Then I saw the next message. This time, it was from Gil.

[Young Master, something big happened when I returned to the mansion.

It seems that the First Young Master has died. But I don't know the reason for the First Young Master's death, Daniel. People are talking that he died in an accident.

But there is something strange. The troops have indeed been deployed to pursue the culprit. But the strange thing was, the search was carried out secretly. As if they didn't really want to find the culprit.

I'll send a message back when I receive more news.

~Gil.]

Seeing the message delivered by Gil, I was a little surprised. It turned out that Baron Warwick had sealed off every mouth that knew that I was the one who killed Daniel.

I thought he would go after me openly.

'No. This might be a good thing.'

This way, I can move a little more freely.

[Keep an eye on the situation at the mansion. Keep an eye on Baron Warwick. Also, if possible, I would like you to inform me of the movements of Captain Knight and Vice-Captain Knight. ]

I replied to Gil's message.

Gil was an ordinary person with no Mana affinity, hence he had a higher probability of being able to notice Baron Warwick, Captain Knight, and Vice-Captain Knight.

The risk remained, but it was very low.

I can only pray that he will not suffer such an unfortunate fate.

Time to look at the other messages.

I checked the contents of the message in the other Communication Crystal Ball. This Communication Crystal Ball was a gift from Callie Claws.

'This is really impractical.'

Unlike cell phones on earth, where one phone can contact multiple people, the Communication Crystal Ball can only be used to contact one person.

'There's no point in me complaining about technology in this world.'

Deep in the back of my brain, I placed the goal of being able to improve the technology in this world. Of course, that was just wishful thinking.

After that, I focused on the content of Callie's message.

Unlike the formal language that Gil and Solemn used, this time I could feel the playful tone in the writing I read.

[Hey, your half-sister is depressed you know. Aren't you worried? ....]

'Does she mean Willa?'

What an opening sentence that reflects on her.

In the first sentence of the message, she began to explain the news about Willa.

Daniel's funeral had taken place.

Somehow, I could imagine that Willa was looking downcast while attending Daniel's funeral.

[... Fufufu~ But don't worry, I'll take care of her. You better focus on the task I gave you. It would be great if you could immediately fulfill the promise you made. At the very least, I want you to find a clue first.

I can't wait to receive good news from you. My boss seems to be getting impatient. I was told to work harder. Ahh~ Do you know how hard it is?

.....

~Callie Claws]

Although her playful nature was still evident in the messages she wrote, she was actually threatening me.

The promise to free every Beastman who was made a slave by humans. I remembered that I once promised that to Callie. In return, she would protect Willa.

I hadn't forgotten that I had promised to do that. After all, I had come to Burgenfield City not only to meet the female protagonist but also to carry out the agreement I had made with Callie.

[Don't worry. I've found a clue. I'll give you the good news soon.]

That's all the reply I need to give.

After sending the message, I put the Communication Crystal Balls into the Inventory.

Since a horse-drawn carriage was approaching me, it would look strange if they saw me holding the Communication Crystal Balls.

It seemed like they were an entourage of merchants.

"May we join you, Kid?"

"Sure."

One of them walked up to me and asked politely. After I agreed, they stopped and rested at the campsite I had set up.
