And Rowe, who was at the front holding the Holy Grail, was approaching him. Several flying rubies turned into hot magic bullets at this moment, which immediately knocked the weapon in his hand away again.
Now, the winner is decided.
"..."
Faced with the poisonous snake on his feet and the mysterious young man approaching him, the old gravekeeper could only helplessly raise his hands to indicate that he was willing to give up resistance.
When Luo Wei saw this, he just smiled slightly.
"Don't worry, old man. I've just noticed that the ley lines of this land are too deeply bound to the undead. If I forcibly extract the magic power, it will undoubtedly destroy and harm them, so I won't continue."
He looked at the nervous old gravekeeper and slowly said, "And now, as the victor, can I ask you to sit down and talk with me for a moment, Mr. Gravekeeper? Perhaps we don't need to fight at all, right?"
"…Do I have any other choice?"
"What do you think?"
Luo Wei smiled slightly, and the meaning in his eyes was self-evident.
Gravekeeper: “…”
……
In the dark night, two figures were sitting on the grass in the middle of the cemetery.
"So... this is roughly the situation."
"My purpose in coming here is to look for my friend who might be here to, well, steal... ahem, do some archaeological work."
"So... you two bastards really are here to rob a tomb?!"
Listening to Luo Wei's explanation, the old gravekeeper's brows were tightly knitted together. Although his body was controlled, his gloomy eyes still did not move away from Luo Wei.
Talking to a gravekeeper about an archaeological excavation beneath his village was like being in a rage, akin to courting death. If the situation didn't prevent him from defeating Luo Wei, he would have absolutely taught him and his so-called friend a lesson about respecting the dead.
What worried him even more was Luo Wei's so-called friend. He hadn't noticed anyone entering the gravekeeper's village during this period, and he didn't know where the friend was hiding.
This is my own negligence.
He didn't realize how the other party had evaded the surveillance of the village barrier.
Moreover, the old gravekeeper could not contain his anger when he thought that a magician might be hiding under his feet and doing non-stop archaeological work.
"Calm down, old man. Don't get too excited. Don't get too excited... We're not sure what Leif is doing right now. Maybe he's just here for a stroll and hasn't done anything bad."
Noticing the old gravekeeper's face, which was almost darker than the night, Luo Wei defended Leif somewhat awkwardly.
However, what he got in return was just a strange look from the old gravekeeper, as if to say, "Do you believe what you said?"
As for whether Luo Wei believes it or not?
The result, of course, is disbelief.
After all, if he were Rafe, before being caught by Morgan and the gravekeeper, he would have worked as a gold miner under their feet and started digging for treasure.
But it’s not popular to say such things nowadays.
"By the way, old man, my name is Rowe Crowley, a magician from the Clock Tower. What's your name?"
Noticing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Luo Wei finally took the initiative to give his name in an attempt to ease the strange atmosphere.
"As expected, they're all magicians from the Clock Tower... Humph! You guys who disrespect the dead will be punished sooner or later!"
The old man's attitude remained angry.
He only watched the Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid bubbling out of Luo Wei's thermos cup and realized that the situation was more powerful than him. The young man before him was completely different from the magicians he had used before. If he mishandled it, the entire village of gravekeepers could be destroyed.
Although he was not afraid of death, when he thought of this land, the entire village, and his apprentice Gray, the old gravekeeper did not dare to provoke or anger Luo Wei too much, but answered his questions instead.
"I am the gravekeeper, Belsak Brakmoya."
Glancing at Luo Wei in front of him, the old man lowered his head and spoke in a voice that was still low but somewhat pleading: "Magician, although I know this is ridiculous, after all, as a loser, I have no right to make demands of you."
"If you want something, or if you fancy something, feel free to take it from this land, but I still ask you not to harm these innocent people who are trapped by fate and imprisoned on this land."
"The one who offended you was only me, not them. If you want to punish me, killing me alone is enough."
Luo Wei: "..."
Looking at the old man in front of him with his head lowered and speaking in a low voice, Luo Wei always felt that he had misunderstood something.
Although it was indeed suspicious that he was spawning in someone else's cemetery in the middle of the night, especially when his companions might have already started archaeological work underneath, Luo Wei still wanted to defend himself. He really was a good person and came here just to...
Well, I did want to kidnap Gray and the Holy Lance along with me, just like I had kidnapped Sakura. After all, Waver had already done it in the original world, so I guess I had a chance too.
And rather than forcing a little girl who had nothing to do with Altria to accept a life and destiny that did not belong to her, Luo Wei felt that it would be better to take her out, go to London together, and see the wider world and have her own choices.
He would not hurt Gray, nor would he force her to do anything she did not like. By doing this, he could be considered making some decent compensation for Altria. This was also an important reason why he did not kill her just now.
The old gravekeeper before him was Gray's master and a very important person to her. If he truly killed him, the consequences would be dire. Furthermore, this time, he and Leif had indeed been dishonest. The old gravekeeper was simply doing his job. While his methods were somewhat extreme, they were not punishable by death, so Rowe's actions were measured. From beginning to end, he had only used the gold magic he had learned in mineral science or inherited from his family.
"Wait, old man, you must have misunderstood something. I'm not here to cause trouble. And it was you who started it first, right?"
Luo Wei quickly raised his hand to stop Belsac from speaking, and then explained, "I really am a good person, do you believe it?"
"..."
He didn't answer anything, yet it seemed as if he had answered everything. Looking at Belsac's suspicious eyes, Luo Wei was furious.
"If you say you're a good person, I might believe you. After all, you're a magus who was able to calmly communicate with someone who just tried to kill you, even after subduing them. You're truly special, but..."
After glancing at Rowe in front of him, Belsac continued speaking slowly in a low voice.
"But you not only know about Gray's existence, but also the secrets of King Arthur and this village. You definitely didn't come here unintentionally. You must have your own goals. That's beyond doubt."
"So... mighty magician from the Clock Tower, as the victor, could you please show some mercy and satisfy the curiosity of a loser like me? How did you learn this secret? And what is your purpose?"
"..."
In response to the old man's low plea, Luo Wei did not directly respond with words.
Because he knew that words had little proof in this situation, even if he said more, the old man in front of him still would not believe it.
So, under the old man's shocked gaze, Luo Wei slowly put his palm into his chest, and then a ball of colorful bright light was slowly taken out and gradually appeared in his palm.
"I think this should explain everything, Mr. Belsac."
Luo Wei asked calmly.
“What, what is this…?!!”
At this moment, upon seeing the true form of the light, the old man's cloudy eyes suddenly narrowed. He stared at the treasure held in Luo Wei's hands in disbelief, his words filled with excitement.
