Merlinsera was silent for a long time.
Although she knew it was only Roddy's speculation, she knew that Roddy was probably the only person on the entire continent who had fought with the Demon Lord and the Lord of the Dragons. Based on this, her speculation was far more reliable than the wild guesses of an ordinary person.
As someone who had personally experienced the massacre of the Shadow Dragons, she had a deep understanding of the strangeness of the whole incident. Now that her suspicions were in line with Roddy's speculation, it meant that the word "God" was no longer as distant as before, and the actions of the "God" did not transcend the logic of self-interest.
"Next … what are you going to do?"
Hearing her change the topic and soften her tone, Roddy finally relaxed his tense nerves. He rubbed his eyes tiredly. "After talking to Jeremy, arrange for the army to come here as soon as possible. As for the scepter … I have no clue, so I can only take one step at a time. Sally is resting now, and I will go to the temple tomorrow to have a look. "
"Okay, I will go with you then."
Saying this, Roddy knew it was time for him to leave. He knew that Merlinsera was no one's accessory, and he had to cherish her as a friend.
"I will go and see Naify. Then … see you tomorrow."
"Okay."
After the door closed, Merlinsera seemed to collapse. She sat on the floor of the laboratory with her back straight, exhausted. Leaning against the cold base of the magic circle, she hugged her knees and finally burst into tears.
Roddy, who had left the academy, didn't know Merlinsera's current state. The only thing he was sure of was that he didn't make up the information. His speculation about the "Dragon God" and the conflicts between the "Gods" were all based on the information he had gathered. Although it sounded like the "Gods" were no different from humans, it was the truth in front of him.
The enemy was very strong, so strong that she didn't know how to deal with it. This huge pressure might actually make her less angry for revenge … although it wasn't a good idea.
But he had to walk the path that he had to walk.
Roddy walked towards the Moffett Academy where Naify was studying. Along the way, he kept thinking about how to proceed with the war in Lassiman. When he arrived at the gate of the academy, a group of puppeteers came back from the experimental site outside the city. He followed them in.
"Hello, may I ask where Naifei's laboratory is located?"
After entering the academy, Roddy casually asked a young puppeteer. As soon as he finished speaking, many people around him turned to look at him. The puppeteer who was asked the question looked at Roddy from head to toe and pointed the way with a faint smile. "The path in front, go inside, and the innermost laboratory on the third floor is there."
"Okay, thank you."
"I advise you not to go. It's meaningless."
"Hmm?"
Roddy was stunned, but before he could ask, the group of people left. He couldn't understand why the other party would say such a thing, but he still followed the instructions to the depths of the academy. Here, he found that Naifei really didn't have any special privileges. The laboratory she used was the same as the others. He raised his hand to knock on the door, but was stopped by two female magicians next to him. "What are you doing?!"
He turned his head and looked at them. The two were not more than twenty years old. They had good figures and high levels. Judging from their accessories and robes, they seemed to be from good families. He was a little surprised. "I'm looking for Naifei, so I want to knock on the door. Is there a rule that people can't knock on the door?"
"Uh … No, it's not."
As the Prime Minister, Roddy's imposing manner was not something that the young magicians could withstand. Although it was a simple question, his calm voice immediately made them feel pressured.
But after seeing Roddy's wrinkled cloak and somewhat messy hair, they quickly regained their confidence and put on a cold face. "Naifei said she wants to do research in seclusion, so no one is allowed to disturb her. I don't think you're from the Moffett Academy, are you? Why are you allowing anyone to enter now … "
"I see."
Roddy blinked and didn't continue to say anything. Merinthra had something important to tell her, but as for Naifei, Roddy would rather she grow up in a normal academic environment. After all, even if he went to the frontline this time, he didn't want Naifei to follow him.
Roddy had learned spells before he came here, so he knew the importance of not being disturbed at a critical moment. Even though he knew that the two magicians in front of him were probably not telling the truth, as long as there was a slight possibility, Roddy didn't want to disturb Naifei.
So he nodded and said, "Then I'm really sorry. I'll go back first. When will she be free?"
"Sorry, no comment."
The two puppet masters were very firm. Roddy could tell that they had a good relationship with Naifei, and they might even be best friends. Not only was he not angry, but he was also happy that someone was protecting Naifei. It seemed that this girl did not become a bookworm. It was not bad to have friends of the same age.
Of course, he was even more happy that he didn't see any male friends of the same age.
"Then I'll come back later."
Roddy felt that there was something wrong with his way of thinking, so he quickly left with a dry smile. This made the two magicians feel strange. They actually had to pluck up their courage to say those words. Although Roddy's cloak didn't look like much, the leather armor and boots that were exposed when he walked were obviously not ordinary.
"Who is this time? Is it some big family? "
"His accent is a little strange. Maybe he's from another city."
The two talked for a while, but in the end, they didn't talk to Naifei, because the latter did say that she had something to research, and they shouldn't disturb her unless it was urgent.
After leaving the academy, Roddy looked at the sunset and sighed. The giant dragon was flying over, and it was noisy and bumpy along the way. Sally should still be resting at this time. So he didn't go to the hotel, but went straight to the barbecue restaurant with Jeremy.
When the waiter led him to the private room, Roddy saw that Jeremy was already there.
"Ah, Prime Minister …"
Jeremy smiled warmly and bowed. Roddy returned the greeting, and then saw the waiter leave as if he didn't see anything. The next second, the whole private room was surrounded by the enchantment.
"Forgive my lack of preparation, Prime Minister Roddy, but I'm very curious … Why did you come in such a hurry?"
"Because the Kingdom of Karen is in a hurry."
This kind of conversation was actually a provocation and a test, but after all, both sides were strong allies, so the hidden message in their words wasn't too vague. After sitting down, Roddy joked, "Now that Lachman is the creditor, of course we have to hurry to pay the money back. If we owe it for too long, we can't bear the interest. "
"Didn't we sign an agreement? After all, it's not that urgent."
Jeremy was actually quite anxious, and he wished that the troops of the Kingdom of Karen had already boarded the ship, but he didn't dare to reveal this emotion in his words. Instead, he smiled naturally and said, "I heard from Mithran about the unification war of the Kingdom of Karen. The troops of the Prime Minister have indeed subverted my understanding of war."
