"You also don''t have to worry about the demons. Rami here already killed all of them," Lawrend said to Reon and pointed to Rami.
"Really? Thank you! Even with our extensive search operation, we weren''t able to locate any of them." Reon thanked Rami gratefully.
"It''s my duty to kill demons. You don''t have to thank me," Rami replied coldly.
"For this, I will do my best to support Lawrend," Reon said.
"Thank you. That''s actually all we came here for. We still need to convince the other cities," Lawrend said.
"You''re leaving already?" Reon asked in surprise.
"We only have less than two weeks left before the king returns ording to my intelligence. If I''m wrong, he could return any moment now," Lawrend replied.
"Well then, I won''t upy you anymore," Reon replied.
"We will contact you using the Mage Guild''smunication devices," Lawrend said.
"I will be on a lookout," Reon replied.
"We''ll be going now," Lawrend bid his farewell and left the room.
Aleshia, Aezel, Humility, Rami, and Kenova followed behind him.
"What if the two Arch Mages forcefully take control of the city?" Kenova asked.
"They won''t do that," Humility replied.
"Why is that, Princess?" Kenova asked curiously.
"They are from the ns in the capital city. They will be more concerned about their npared to some city far away," Humility exined.
"I see. That makes sense. Thank you for enlightening me, Princess," Kenova replied and bowed to her respectfully.
After walking up the stairs for a few more minutes, they arrived at the lobby of the Mage Guild.
"Master!" Amene called out with a smile on her face.
"We''re done here. We can leave now," Lawrend said.
"Yes, Master," Amene and the others replied.
They left the Mage Guild and headed back to the Great Njiro Forest.
…
"Lawrend… Lawrend… Hm? I remember now. My niece told me that he was the new Prime Student of the Undrasil Mage Academy," Grendan muttered in the Guild Master''s office.
"Prime Student? That kid is??" Brues eximed in shock.
"I don''t know, but I''m fairly certain it''s him. He''s also a Lightning Mage, and Reon seems to know about him pretty well," Grendan replied.
"Let''s go meet him. There''s a high chance that he will be a Grand Mage," Brues replied.
"Mm." Grendan nodded his head and the two of them left the room.
But as they were about to walk down the stairs to the lobby, they encountered Reon.
"Reon, where is Lawrend? He''s the Prime Student isn''t he?" Grendan asked.
"Him? He already left. And what do you mean Prime Student?" Reon asked with a confused look on his face.
"He''s the current Prime Student Lawrend Horiel," Grendan exined.
"...What?"
Reon widened his eyes in disbelief. But he soon recovered from his shock. After all, he was already shocked earlier by Lawrend.
At this point, nothing could faze him anymore.
"Where did he go? I want to test out his strength," Grendan said.
"I don''t know."
Reon shook his head. If he knew that Lawrend was the current Prime Student, he would have asked him to duel with him.
"That''s a shame. Maybe he will return to the capital city. I''ll go ask more about him from my niece," Grendan said and headed back to the office.
…
"Where are we going now, Master?" Aleshia asked.
"Let''s go buy a map first," Lawrend replied.
He stopped an empty carriage and rode it. The others also rode their own carriage and followed after Lawrend''s.
"Head to the Merchant Guild," Lawrend said to the coachman.
They waited for a dozen minutes before they arrived at their destination.
"Oh, you''re back?" Uncle Kaban asked in surprise.
"Uncle Kaban, do you have a map of the whole Undrasil Kingdom?" Lawrend asked.
"What are you going to use it for?" Uncle Kaban asked.
"I''m going to travel around the kingdom, and I need it," Lawrend replied.
"Around the kingdom? Are you going to find your father?" Uncle Kaban asked with bulging eyes.
"..."
Lawrend stayed silent and smiled at him awkwardly while scratching the back of his head.
"*Sigh* Here. Take this free of charge," Uncle Kaban said and grabbed a scroll from under the receptionist table before passing it to Lawrend.
He took it and opened it widely.
The scroll contained the wholend area of the Undrasil Kingdom. Including the three provinces that it isposed of.
N?v(el)B\\jnn
These were the Lanshia, Treeshia, and Cypol Provinces. Lawrend''s group was currently in the Lanshia Province.
By going south, they would enter the Treeshia Province. As they have Clova, who can fly really high and fast, they don''t have to worry about traversing the Great Njiro Forest that would block their way.
The capital city was located in the Lanshia Province as that province epasses the whole north of the kingdom.
As for the Cypol Province, it borders the Bluemin Empire''s province far to the west.
Across the kingdom, there''s a huge mountain range, and the highest peak was Stargazing Mountain that Lawrend and Clova climbed before
"Wow. This map is pretty detailed," Lawrend said to Uncle Kaban.
"Of course. Merchants of the Merchant Guild require a very urate map of the whole kingdom. Otherwise, we would get lost. HAHAHAHAHA!!" Uncle Kabanughed out loudly.
"That''s true," Lawrend responded and smiled at him.
"Is that all that you need?" Uncle Kaban asked.
"Yes. I''m really tight on time. I didn''t realize there were these many cities in the kingdom," Lawrend replied.
"If the Empire wasn''t in the southwest of the kingdom, we would have invaded that ce. The north is a big no-no as the Undrasil Monster Forest is blocking the way," Uncle Kaban exined.
"Amazing. This kingdom is full of surprises," Lawrend replied.
Hearing those words renewed Lawrend''s determination to take the throne.
The more he understood about the kingdom, the more he realized that there''s a chance for it to be a fully-fledged empire one day.. If he takes the throne now and develops the kingdom to the empire-level, the Bluemin Empire would not be able to do anything.
