I ascend to the throne of God with arcane magic - Chapter 600
5th Ihailes?
golden coconut hotel,
Taiya sent Juou out of the corridor and said to her with some unfinished thoughts:
“I will prepare more snacks next time, Juou, please come over and eat together!”
“Uh-huh!”
Zhuou’s little face was slightly red, her little hands held the corners of her clothes, and she said with some embarrassment:
“Will I disturb Taya, you and Mr. Li Si’s rest?”
The delicious snacks that Taiya shared with her just now were the first time Juou tasted them.
Is that something that only noble men can enjoy?
Juou was a little embarrassed at first, but gradually relaxed after feeling Taiya’s sincerity and closeness.
She had never seen someone as good-looking as Taiya, and she had such a good attitude towards her, which made Juou feel a little moved and reluctant.
Juou heard what he said about the nobles from the caravan merchants who passed by the hotel.
In this small city, there are no so-called nobles except the city lord Ihailes.
Even the officials responsible for the management of the small town and the captains of the city guard can only obey the orders of Lord Ihailes honestly. There is no so-called nobility at all.
From Taiya, Juou felt some food that she had never seen before, which made her very interested. It was like another stone was dropped into the calm lake where she had lived for many years, causing different ripples in her heart.
“It’s okay. Li Si is usually very busy. I’ll call you when I’m ready!”
Taiya waved her hands indifferently.
Li Si looked very busy today, and she did not intend to pester Li Si like she did during the trip, otherwise it would delay Li Si’s business.
It just so happened that Juou gave her a pretty good feeling. It was good to make a friend in this small town, and they could go out together during the day.
“Well, I’ll bring more delicious food next time I come.”
Juou nodded and did not continue to refuse.
Although Juou knew that the drinks she prepared could not compare with the exquisite snacks that Taiya brought out, they were still her thoughts.
“Uh-huh.”
Taiya smiled, nodded repeatedly and said:
“I also want to try bartending later, Juou, can you teach me?”
“No problem, although I might not be very good at it either.”
Juou said a little embarrassed.
The two chatted at the door for a while, and then reluctantly separated.
After Taiya closed the door and looked back, she said with some surprise:
“Li Si, you’re back!”
Li Si was already sitting on a chair in the room and asked Taya:
“Who were you talking to just now?”
Taiya noticed that the table in front of Li Si was still in a messy state with cups and plates, and said with some embarrassment:
“Hehe, Juou came here just now, and I treated her to some snacks.”
“We also made an appointment to take me to the city for a walk when she is free.”
At the end of the day, Juou wanted to help Taiya clear the table, but Taiya refused.
Anyway, the tableware she used was not from the hotel. She would just receive the storage ring and clean it up together later.
Li Si naturally noticed the plate with only some crumbs and jam left in front of him, and was speechless.
To him, these snacks are nothing.
Even if he made it himself, it wouldn’t take much effort.
But the important thing is who Taiya ate with!
When he came back from the city lord’s mansion just now, he was thinking about telling Taiya what happened tonight.
After all, Li Si has determined that a legendary strongman has been paying attention to the Golden Coconut Hotel, and the target of his attention is Juou, who is the maid of the hotel, and it is very likely that the legendary mage Ihailes.
At the same time, Li Si also planned to inform Taiya about the anomalies in this small town, including the undead residents and the strange city lord’s mansion.
If possible, Li Si was even prepared to ask Taiya to leave the small town and wait for him outside.
Before coming in, he didn’t expect that this small town would have such a big problem.
Li Si was certain that in addition to the problems of the undead residents of this small town, there must be problems that Li Si was not aware of.
He was still confident of protecting himself, but Taiya was different.
When facing a legendary mage, Taiya was much more powerless than Lisi, and it was difficult for him to resist.
Although Taiya must have the life-saving means provided by His Majesty Ivan and the Church of God of War, there is absolutely no need to waste it in this city.
After all, she just came in with Li Si, so there was no need to take such a risk.
However, Li Si did not expect that Taiya and the blond girl Juou would get along so well after not seeing each other for one night.
When they got along just now, the two looked like they had been friends for many years.
This shouldn’t be the case. After traveling for so long, Li Si has never seen Taya get along so well with other people.
It’s not that Taiya is too conceited and looks down on people who are not as powerful as her.
Taiya didn’t have so many other thoughts, but she was always traveling and rarely had long-term contact with other people. In addition, her mind was always on herself and her practice, so she rarely made friends with others.
Could it be that Taiya also felt the difference in Juou and did this subconsciously?
Li Si thought about it and realized that it was possible.
I didn’t pay much attention to it when I was in Bright Light City before, but through this accompanying trip, Li Si also confirmed many things.
In addition to possessing the legendary talent [King of Battle], Taiya also has a strong premonition in a sense.
She didn’t come to a conclusion by collecting intelligence like Li Si did, but she liked to act according to her own feelings.
Whether in battle or in daily life.
Although I don’t know why it is like this, Taiya’s premonition is usually very accurate.
For example, when Li Si and Taiya met again before, Taiya quickly recognized Li Si.
Obviously, Li Si changed his face through [Mask of the Transformer] and concealed himself through the skill of breath concealment.
Even if it was a legend, it would be impossible to recognize Li Si so quickly, but Taiya did it.
And in the process of Li Si and Taiya’s competition later, this feeling became more and more obvious.
Even if Li Si used the stealth skill, Taiya could realize Li Si’s location and lock the target, and at the same time almost dodge and parry all of Li Si’s attacks.
If Li Si did not use spells and fought Taiya with melee profession alone, although he would not be defeated, he would be suppressed and embarrassed.
There is a low-level spell called [Battle Magic Warning], which can predict the direction of the enemy’s attack to a certain extent, and there is also a high-level specialty called [Battle Intuition], which can predict the development of the battle to a certain extent, but neither of these two effects is as powerful as what Taya showed.
Li Si had asked Taya how he did it before, but Taya didn’t know, just subconsciously did it.
With such a premonition talent, Taya will have a great advantage in battle.
But can this premonition still allow Taya to take the initiative to get close to Zhuo, the core character of the secret realm?
Isn’t it a bit too strong?
Is this the basis for the protagonist of the plot to overcome many difficulties and finally succeed?
Li Si didn’t know if this was the effect of the lucky halo that the protagonist of the plot usually has, but it was indeed somewhat extraordinary.
Taya noticed Li Si’s somewhat strange look, and couldn’t help but look down curiously at himself.
There is nothing strange on it?
Could it be that the jam was stuck on the snacks just now?
“Can’t go out, Li Si? Do you need me to stay in the room all the time?”
Taya thought about it and asked Li Si.
Although it was a bit regrettable, Taya didn’t care too much.
If Li Si wanted her to do this, Taya didn’t mind.
Anyway, she could invite Zhuo to the room as a guest, and she could continue to practice at other times and look for opportunities to break through the legend.
“No need to do that.”
Li Si reacted and shook his head and said.
Taya was not his appendage, and Li Si couldn’t let Taya stay in the room for his own business.
The reason why he was silent before was because he remembered the relationship between Taya and Zhuo.
Taya and Zhuo’s getting along did not seem to arouse the hostility of the legendary strongman hiding in the dark. If possible, Taya could continue to contact Zhuo to see if she could get useful clues from her.
After all, Li Si was sure that the problem of this small town was big, and the root of the problem was likely to be this girl named Zhuo.
Taya could be so close to Zhuo, and if they continued to get along, it might bring different surprises.
If Taya is not told the truth about Zhuo, it is very likely that more useful information will be obtained, but that is equivalent to deceiving and using Taya.
Li Si hesitated for a moment and gave up the idea.
Whether it is good for Taya or not, Li Si does not want to deceive Taya on such a matter.
The two of them have been together for these days, and their feelings have become more and more sincere, and Taya has become more and more dependent on Li Si.
“Come here, Yaer.”
Li Si held Taya in his arms and sat on the chair, with his chin against Taya’s smooth and white shoulder.
“I have something to tell you.”
“Yeah.”
Taya leaned obediently in Li Si’s arms, blinked her gray-purple eyes, and looked at Li Si with a little curiosity.
Li Si seemed very serious, did something happen?
Then, Li Si hugged Taya and told her all the discoveries today.
Including that all the residents of the town are undead creatures, a legendary undead wizard Ihalus is hidden in the town, and the specialness of the girl Zhuo.
Taiya stared quietly, without making a sound to disturb Li Si.
But her beautiful face showed a bit of sadness.
After Li Si finished speaking, Taiya said softly after a moment of silence:
“So. Zhuo is like everyone else, and is actually gone?”
“Yes.”
Li Si nodded, touched the girl’s head and said:
“Their current situation is very special. I guess it should be through some special necromancy to reconstruct their bodies, but their souls are not affected, and they have not realized that they are dead, and continue their previous lives as usual.”
“It is very likely that it is the effect of the special illusion arranged in this town.”
“I know.”
Taya was a little depressed. After all, she just met a good friend, but she found out that the other party was gone.
This was indeed a bit sudden for Taiya, and she suddenly didn’t know what to do.
Should she continue to face Zhuo?
But in that state, her soul should be quite painful, right?
Facing Taiya’s question, Li Si had no way to give a prepared answer.
“From what I know now, this small town and its residents must have been here for a long time.”
“In other words, Juou and the others have died long ago, but their souls were forcibly left behind.”
“Maybe they don’t realize it, but after all, they are just maintaining the same life as before, and there will be no changes.”
Li Si didn’t know what the residents of this small city thought, but for him, instead of gaining eternity in this way, it would be more pleasant and direct to choose death.
This kind of life without hope and future is the greatest torture.
Perhaps it was because of the influence of that illusion that the residents here didn’t notice anything was wrong?
“So Ya’er, do you want to continue staying here, or go wait for me outside the city first?”
Li Si looked at Taya and gave the choice to Taya.
“I want to stay.”
Taiya did not hesitate and said directly to Li Si in the affirmative:
“I also hope to be able to help. If I can get in touch with the curse of this small town, it should be able to free Juou, right?”
In Taiya’s opinion, this is a painful evil curse.
This kind of life of becoming an undead is definitely not what Juou wants. She wants to help this friend she just met to be freed and let her soul rest in peace.
“I see.”
Li Si smelled the fragrance on Tai Ya’s body, nodded and said.
“Then Taiya, you can just get along with Juou normally from now on, and don’t arouse the vigilance of the legendary crown prince.”
“Um.”
Taiya nodded and said softly.
After listening to Li Si’s description, she felt a little heavier and was eager to find out the truth about this small town as soon as possible.
“That’s right, Li Si.”
Taiya suddenly remembered something and said to Li Si:
“What’s wrong?”
Li Si asked curiously:
“If Juou is a very special existence in this secret realm, then does she know the legendary prince who created this secret realm?”
“When I was chatting with her, she told me that she was actually an orphan. She was taken in and raised by the old Milo in this tavern. She has no other relatives.”
“But Juou seems to have someone she likes, a young man named Kazeri, but now he has left the town with a passing caravan.”
“Kazeri? I understand.”
“Ya’er, you have been of great help.”
Li Si nodded and said.
Li Si had never heard of the name Kazeri in this city.
If what Taiya said is true, it is indeed likely to be the name of the legendary mage Ihailes.
After all, if the purpose of Ihailes in creating this illusion is really Juou, then the most likely person is this Kazeri.
According to the description in the mission system, Ihales and Juou are most likely to be lovers.
Kazeri Ihailes?
The real name of the legendary necromancer who created this secret realm?
