Chapter 100 The Ancient Book and the traces it gives (Part 1)
Just as Wendy had said, the next ht them to Roland’s office There the Prince handed the into account that some of the witches were illiterate, Scroll read its contents to theerprint
Roland knew that it was hard for the of each line written in the contract, but this wasn’t iin to understand what he wanted from them He also knew, even if this was a slave contract, they would still have put their signature under it But Roland didn’t think that it was good to lose his principles just to get some small benefits Since they chose to follow this road, we have to look to where it is leading the of a foundation to for-term investment which should end in a in situation for both sides
After receiving the signed docu plan he had developed yesterday evening, and explained to each of them personally what they should do When he had finished this he called Leaves, Scroll, and Soraya back into his office
After closing the door, Nightingale showed a royal salute, startling her sisters
“I’ve been thinking all night long about the story I’ve heard yesterday froht flood into the room “She said you had encountered a terrible monster and only seven of you were able to survive Even your Witch Cooperation association Mentor, Cara, died within the wilderness So I want to knohat you have encountered, was it a mixed species or a demonic beasts?”
Leaves was the first to speak: “They weren’t de from behind of the Gate of hell They possessed a tall body and were able to ride on deic, just…” She hesitated for a moment, “Just like us”
“They were Devil’s?” Roland frowned, turning his view to Soraya, “Were you also present at the scene?”
The spoken to nodded hesitantly
“You can draw the scene, right?” asked Roland and gave her a piece of paper
Soraya closed her eyes, reardless she still took the paper and went to the table
Following this, she began to fully display her ability, taking her ht, which flew froradually took for process Soraya never opened her eyes once
When Roland stepped near the table, he discovered that the picture’s iery looked very realistic – no, he had to correct hie taken from a real-life scene Her ability was just like a caenocide in the wild from a first-person perspective
When she had co, Soraya’s forehead was covered in sweat, clearly indicating that the htmare to her
Nightingale, went to the table too, taking a look and asked, “Are these the Devils you had encountered?”
“Yes, those are,” Leaves pointed to the nearest one froattacks, while the other one was unusually strong, he could throw a spear several times faster than an arrow shot from a bow More than a dozen sisters died under their hands But they weren’t able to use their special attack the whole ti when I was able to kill them”
“You were able to kill them on your own?” Roland asked
“Cara’s ic snake had ripped open Ironhand’s pipe, and he eventually died from that wound I used the same method, to kill the other one with a crossbow The pipe seeas leaks out they die”
Well, this thing seeen tank, how is it possible for creatures in the wild to have so like this? Roland asked hi that they have to be aliens, is a little too preether out of pieces of leather and animal skins This shows that their level of civilization can’t be much further developed than ours is
Whether it was by using y, that they were able to cross to other planets, already shows their strength – while the people on earth are still fighting against each other all the time
Of course, we cannot rule out the point, that it’s just an innate skill of an exotic civilization Roland thought, for now, the important point is to remember, that “The Devil” is not an invincible enemy, they can be killed
“In addition to the Devil, we also saw a city floating in the sky,” Leaves added, “No matter how far we moved into its direction, it always stayed just in front of us Lightning hassie”
“Can you also draw a picture of the city?” Roland asked in Soraya’s direction
She nodded, su in the sky just as Leaves had said
Roland viewed the picture carefully, but he was unable to get ue scenery Even if the city displayed in the picture really is only a e, it still means that somewhere within the wildlands there has to be the real one There seeas that is needed by the Devils This explanation isabout aliens, after all, the vast wide lands behind the Ie is a co ti a new race isn’t too surprising
“I heard froale and Wendy that Cara decided to look for the Holy Mountain after she read about it in an ancient book,” Roland asked “Scroll, have you also read the book?”
Scroll hesitated for a moment but then she answered “Cara didn’t allow anyone to read the book, but… I have still seen a little, but the text was quite messy yet… also incredible”
“Can you make a copy of it and show me?”
“The text written in the book isn’t true, Your Royal Highness, that the Holy Mountain doesn’t exist confirht hand, “I hope you won’t get confused by the book’s content”
