Natalie's magical growth record

Chapter 719 Helpless misunderstanding

Lanz no longer remembers how long he has been here. He only remembers that the neighborhood has always been noisy. It is often so noisy that he cannot sleep peacefully. It is often so noisy that he has to consume a large-scale [Sound Isolation] magic scroll to let him go. He had a good sleep for now.

But today, it was surprisingly quiet outside. The noise that usually drove him crazy disappeared, and the explosions caused by the collision of various magic attacks also disappeared.

This puzzled him.

"What's going on outside?"

He couldn't help but whisper.

He tried to wait for a while, but the situation outside still did not change.

what happened?

Lanz felt increasingly confused.

Finally, he decided to go out and take a look to see which kind person helped him clear away the garbage that would disturb his sleep today.

With this thought in mind, he no longer hesitated, immediately stood up and walked quickly to the door. He reached out and pushed open the dusty door with very small steps and movements.

creak-

Under the activated [Sound Isolation] magic, this door of isolation that had been closed for more than three hundred years was finally opened by the owner of the house.

Not paying attention to the sunlight that was a bit dazzling for him, Lanz walked straight through the gorgeous sea of ​​flowers that looked particularly dazzling under the sunlight and walked to the edge of the territory.

Bang, bang, bang, bang!

On a road near his territory, several heavily armed prison staff were carefully pushing a cage with many complex magic circle symbols and layers of magic restrictions engraved on its surface.

Just when he was wondering what kind of criminal needed so much magic to be strictly restricted, the team suddenly stopped.

"Time is up!"

A staff member located on the side of the cage stopped and spoke loudly to all the members near the cage.

In an instant, all the staff stopped.

A young man with yellow hair who wore a medal with a door and key pattern on his chest quietly took out a simple key and reached out to touch the magic circle with the corresponding key pattern engraved on it.

Just before he was about to use magic to temporarily lift the magic restriction above, he stopped again and said to the staff member on the side of the cage with a gloomy expression: "Is there anyone nearby, is it okay?"

The person who seemed to be the team leader was stunned for a moment, then put away the notebook he took out and walked towards Lanz's location.

"No problem, I haven't received any negative feedback."

But at this time, another young man stood up from the side of the team. He first quickly touched the magic symbol on the surface of the book in his hand, and then nodded gently to the yellow-haired young man who was about his age.

"It's Mr. Witness."

The yellow-haired young man said no more, and immediately skillfully placed the key in his hand against the magic circle.

Suddenly, a deep and dark pure light suddenly bloomed near the entire prison.

The light subsided, and there was only a sound of the shackles loosening and being spread out layer by layer, and the scene inside the cage was revealed. Elementalization? And it’s still far beyond the critical point...!
  Lanz had long heard about the negative state in which the body was gradually eroded by magical elements after using resurrection magic many times, but those states were far less touching than the scene he saw now.

What kind of experience could give rise to such intense despair...

As if he noticed his gaze and understood his mood, just when he was lamenting this, he suddenly felt a gaze quietly falling on him.

It was an emotion that he could hardly describe clearly in words.

It's like a variety of emotions that shouldn't appear in one person at the same time, but they are paradoxically mixed together at this moment, giving people the feeling that they are clearly burdened with a lot, suppressed a lot, but they can't grasp anything. The feeling of powerlessness of not being able to grasp anything.

This feeling of powerlessness felt familiar to him, made him sad, and even more heart-wrenching.

Somehow, he had an intuition that as long as someone had deciphered the true meaning of that contradictory emotion and figured out the source of that emotion, things would not have evolved to this situation...

"Don't look at her. She is very dangerous. Even if you see sadness and helplessness in her eyes at this time, this is the result of her disguise!"

"Sorry to disturb your rest, we will leave soon."

As soon as this thought came to an end, the young man who was sitting on the side of the team and holding a black-covered book had finished talking to the people next to him. He smiled reservedly and walked towards him in a steady pace. After a quick reminder, He bowed deeply and sincerely to him.

Although the young man hid his emotions very well, Lanz could still feel the tightly restricted sadness and intolerance that originated from the depths of his soul through the emotional seeds in his body that could not be completely eliminated by magic.

He didn't point this out, just like the other party tacitly didn't point out the fact that his mentality had changed. He just pretended that he just accidentally noticed the abnormality and came out to find out, and responded calmly and nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter. Since the target is very dangerous, it is understandable that you choose this path."

After saying that, Lanz did not stay any longer. As if he had truly satisfied his curiosity, he turned around and prepared to go back to the house, intending to find other ways to find out about the woman's subsequent whereabouts.

"Sorry, please wait!"

However, just as he turned around and took two or three steps, he heard the aristocratic young man who was a little young but relatively calm in mentality call him again.

Lanz was a little shocked, but he didn't feel too surprised.

He did not show this, stopping in his tracks to show his initial surprise at the right moment.

"what's up?"

he asks.

"I can see that you are different from everyone else here. I want to entrust you to be her guardian. When the situation outside stabilizes, I will personally vouch for you and arrange a suitable identity for you. . I think that the identity of the first sage assistant in the North District of Water and the direct descendant of the [Sky] sage should still have enough weight."

The sage assistant seemed calm, but in fact he was struggling in his heart to answer.

"Why are you telling me this? Aren't you afraid that I will become her accomplice?"

As before, Lanz did not reveal the other party's current mental state, and cooperated with the other party tacitly, pretending that he was just an ordinary prisoner.

"I believe you can do it, but it doesn't matter. As long as she can't leave here, the situation outside will not be worse."

said the sage assistant.
