55 Fury Of The Seven Sword Society (1/2)
The following day, Elder Drun with the empire's emissary left the city. Few of his students remained to help the City Lord's Mansion and the Magic Hall. Naga gave Oscar three scrolls and adviced him to use it in case of emergency. Oscar is a man of few words but as a former knight and bandit leader, he knows that this elf is strong and capable.
Naga did not waste time and he continued his training routine. After a week, he got a report from Cris who he asked to check Ludwig's connection to the Duke and to check the current movements of the Seven Sword Society. He asked Albert to always stay at their Magic Hall since they might cause trouble.
Two days before the scheduled meeting of the Silver Sparrow, Hextor arrived with some news.
”My Lord, I'm back.” Hextor bowed and said.
Naga is resting near the lake and looking at the calm sky when Hextor landed from flying.
”Glad to see you back, Hextor.” Naga nodded and said.
”The dragons from the Northern Wyrm Sea are currently guarding the Overlord Mountain.” Hextor said.
”That's a good news.” Naga smiled.
”There are some survivors but the King of the Overlord Mountain really died.” Hextor said while clenching his fists.
”I heard.” Naga responded.
”Did you learn what the High Demons wanted there.” He continued.
”Yes, The King's Dragon Soul and the Draconian Heavenly Door. It seems that they thought that the Overlord Mountain was keeping it.” Hextor said with a serious tone.
”I see. It is good that the door is now safe. I will inform the Order of the Sacred Scale. Thanks.” Naga responded and smiled.
”My Lord, the King of the Northern Wyrm Sea wants to meet you.” Hextor said respectfully.
”Maybe next time.” Naga replied.
”As you wish.” Hextor said and bowed.
”You can leave now. For the next two days, do what you want but be here on the scheduled date.” Naga commanded and stood up.
”I will follow my Lord's command.” Hextor immediately left after that.
Naga went to the commoner's town and visited the church. He informed Father Justus the news that Hextor gave him. The old priest hurriedly said his goodbye so he can report it to the Magnus Clan.
After that, he visited his sister who is currently at the orphanage.
”I am thankful to our God that you are alive.” Lillie looked at her with a warm smile.
Naga smiled and said, ”Would you like to move to my place?”
Lillie lightly shook her head and responded while looking at the children who are playing, ”No, but thank you. I want to help here. I didn't really grew up with our father so I understand these children.
”I see. That's fine then.” Naga said and smiled.
”You can always visit me.” Lillie said with a warm smile.
They talked for a while and Naga told her how did his group end up in this city. He informed her as well where he learned that she is his sister. Lillie was surprised with what she heard. She couldn't believe that her brother met the elusive Elder and that he is in partnership with the great Magnus Clan of the Holy Church.
It was almost night time when Naga said his goodbye.
”I will visit you again. You can tell our House of Iron Crow anything that you need or you can also tell it to Father Justus.” Naga said and smiled.
”I will remember it. Thank you, Naga.” Lillie said.
Naga smiled at her and nodded. He left the orphanage and decided to go back to their manor.
When he arrived at their manor, Old Samuel approached him.
”Naga, we received an invitation from an elder of the Seven Sword Society.” The old elf said.
He told Naga that Bill left and went to a restaurant in the central district. Bill decided to meet the elder since Old Samuel needs to manage the manor and the Magic Hall.
