Never touch Eldmia Egga - Episode 153

It's been a while since I saw a happy face, but I can't hold on to tired people..

After finishing our meal, we headed to Raviel Drake Station with plans for the next time. Originally, I was just going to leave the inn, but I couldn't refuse their sincerity, saying that they were a great help this time and offering to see me off to Hansako Station..

Asilier, who was looking at the people walking down the street together smiling cheerfully even though they were probably tired, with a faint smile, poked my side and spoke to me..

"Considering I've only been with you once, I'm quite trusted.?"

"of course. Who did you learn it from?."

I don't know anything else, but I can now be sure that adventurers similar to our level will start to appear only when we reach level 4. If you put in a little more effort, you will easily be able to achieve the level of self-sufficiency, which is one level higher. Of course, I'm not just talking about combat ability in an ignorant way, so it may take a little more time..

"Anyway, I can see the flow of magical power. I've never heard anything like that in my life. Is it the same type as the Demon Eye? Then should we call it Magic City??"

While Gaendal and his party went up to their lodgings to put down their gear, they were quickly told the story they had not told before, and Asili's reaction was duller than expected..

He said he had heard it for the first time, and I thought he might be more embarrassed when he remembered how everyone, including Ragnis, was shocked every time he cut magic with this, but it was unexpected..

"He takes it very calmly.?"

"of course. Who have I been living with?."

I, an elf who has lived for over 120 years, suddenly became a collection of things that I had never experienced in my life, and I couldn't help but make a shocked expression..

"You speak as if this is a hotbed of mystery that I cannot understand. There are many guys in the world who fly better than me.."

"That's right, but aren't there only a handful of people who can fly like L.D. at the age of 15? Even the person who was called the youngest Auror Master was probably 25 years old. But now, LDI uses magic power, so just looking at his movements, it seems like he can fight without difficulty even with people who are at the level of an Auror expert.?"

"What? Auror Master? Expert? There is such a thing?"

While working at the Ogatorf family, my eyes widened at the fantasy-like word I had heard for the first time in my life. When he sees me, he just calls me Auror user.?

"There are levels of magic, and of course there are levels of aurors as well.."

"No, everyone who saw me was like, ‘Auror users!’ They said it was like this?"

"Isn't it because I really only felt that much from L.D.?"

For those who use auras, they are insignificant, so they are auror users, and for those who cannot use auras, they are simply auror users because their level is unknown..

When I think about it, it is a very reasonable and reasonable inference..

Eventually, after 15 years of reincarnation in another world, I learned that people who use Aurors are divided into Beginners, Experts, and Masters. They are collectively referred to as auror users or auror users..

"The distinction is pretty simple.."

"This is because it is an ability that relies mostly on intuition rather than being studied in an academic area like wizards. I heard that the standard was set not by 'if you can do this from here to here, you will be at this level', but 'if you can roughly do this, you will be at this level'.."

I did it just in case, but it was still a warrior-like reason..

We all got together and talked about the various stories we had experienced during the week I was away. When we arrived at the Drake Station, we saw Gees drinking water while throwing food to the Drake..

Although no one expected her to arrive so early, Catherine, who was the most surprised, spoke first..

"What, I'm already here?"

"Ah, everyone. Did you organize your work well??"

"I sorted it out pretty well. But how did you come so early??"

Unlike before, I made some calculations based on the appearance of the shiny flying dragon and Gies with their arms rolled up, whether the dust had been wiped off, and it was clear that we arrived much faster than when we flew in. I didn't spend that much time looking for a guild leader, but it's amazing..

Our common question was surprisingly resolved without any hesitation..

"If there are no passengers, there is no need to adjust the speed. I went at full speed."

Gees smiled as he proved to himself that he didn't really treat the guy named Gwens he was carrying behind him like a human being..

Then he casually took out an antique envelope from his pocket and handed it to me..

"When I arrived at the mansion, the guards told me that there was a letter from Eldmia.."

"letter? I don't think anyone will send me a letter from the Ogatorp family.."

"For something like that, it was a bit of an old-fashioned envelope and sealing wax, wasn’t it? There was something inside."

Duke Lesrom, who even secretly sent the flight permit, couldn't have sent another letter, and Sikmel didn't have expensive envelopes or seals, so who could he be? There was nothing particularly secret about it, so I prepared to open it in front of everyone, and my companions approached me with curiosity..

This is a world where even reading a letter is a piece of content unless it is a secret. Now that I'm used to it, I don't really try to distance myself from them. Rather, I intentionally kneeled down to the right height to make it easier to read..

"Oh, the envelope looks a bit expensive.?"

I nodded reflexively at Lellie’s words. Because it wasn't really wrong. But when we opened the rather large envelope and saw the contents, we couldn't help but be surprised once more..

"blank?!"

"Oh wait. I feel dizzy."

This is because another letter envelope made of white paper, which can be easily seen in modern times, like a matryoshka doll, has been released..

In this world, it is a luxury item so expensive that it makes your eyes pop out. There are only a handful of cases where even really good books are made from blank paper..

Just looking at the fact that you made an envelope with it and sent it, it is normal to feel that it is almost a waste of money from a general perspective. Naturally, everyone's attention was focused on the letter envelope in my hand, as if it were some kind of treasure..

For a brief moment, I took out the envelope of the letter that aroused many questions and looked at the sealing wax, and there was a star candy-like pattern stamped on the pure white sealing wax, which was not typical at all..

white... star...?

"White wax on white paper. I would believe it if it were a letter from the empire.."

As soon as he saw that, Gaendal reacted this time. Is sealing wax expensive? I have no idea about this. In any case, his reaction was closer to half surprise and half astonishment..

From an adventurer's perspective, it would be very unsettling to suddenly receive a letter from a high-ranking noble. Even without knowing who sent it, wouldn't it be a scary phenomenon that shouldn't normally happen to be seen in real time doing something extravagant that only a high-ranking noble can afford?.

Of course, I was not normal, so I had to feel completely different..

"Esmueh?"

I mumbled in a low voice without knowing it and carefully opened the sealing wax and looked at the contents. There were two letters that looked as luxurious as the envelope and a thin ring..

However, the first thing that caught my eye, rather than the contents of the letter, was the sentence written neatly at the beginning of the letter..

"Dragon emblem and star emblem wrapped around a sword...!"

"Well, it’s a real empire, right? Even the 1st princess?!"

People who stick their heads out and look at the contents with me suppress their voices and express their admiration. And I hurriedly covered my mouth to see if anyone around me would hear..

"Mr. Ega? Is this really an imperial letter? really? A letter from the 1st princess called the Iron Blood Princess.?"

Of all the people in the group, except for Asilier and me, Lellie was especially shocked and surprised, wondering whether she should watch this or not, but I couldn't even respond to that because it was a sudden situation..

First of all, it was confirmed that the contents of the official letter under the pretense of a letter express strong regret over the series of conspiracies and incidents that are taking place between Ragnis, and at the same time, it concludes with the statement that the Empire will do its best to ensure her innocence. I couldn't help but tilt my head.

"Why do you do this to me?"

No matter how I looked at it, there seemed to be no reason for me to personally receive it and deliver it to the royal family..

"Maybe... I think it's something like pressure or warning to the royal family.."

Asilier, who was quietly reading the letter together, answered after a short period of thought..

"Just because this incident has already occurred, the royal family is not entitled to directly receive an official letter from the empire... I think it's close to expressing very strong regret. Whether Eldi delivers it directly or through Lord Ekaf, the royal family will be quite noisy.."

"Is this a common case??"

"It's not common, and it's safe to say that the Empire is rude, but this time it's a little different.."

Even without Asilier explaining further, I was able to fully guess why this time was different. That seemed to be the end of the letter, but there was no information about the ring anywhere, so I opened the second letter..

Since it came with a letter, I thought it would say things like prove your identity and receive security through this ring..

With that in mind, when I naturally opened the second letter, I had to regret my complacency..

"White star... To my beloved black star...?"

Because we all read the first introduction together without any time to hide, attention was now focused on me, not the letter..
