“Please wait a moment. I will pass on the message for you!”
The church guard’s eyes widened. Leylin’s aura immediately made him feel like he was seeing someone important like the king. He was also in wizard robes, and the power that signified more than shocked him. Hence, he presented himself politely.
The guard who went in returned very quickly, though this time, he bowed so deeply that his nose practically touched the ground, “Welcome, esteemed wizard Leylin! Paladin Rafiniya is now away, but we have already informed her. We believe she will return soon… Many apologies for this. Please take a short rest in the church…”
The guard was actually trembling inside in fear. This was a legend! The pinnacle of strength in the continent, and even a legendary wizard at that!
As the youngest legend, and one that had become one in the most difficult path of a wizard, Leylin’s reputation had long since spread in the continent. However, there were few who had actually met him.
“Fine. Lead the way.”
Leylin entered alongside the guard, and upon entering through the doors, a few people hastened over, evidently to receive hi.
“Oh, Leylin, my friend! We finally meet…”
Next to the white-robed bishop of the God of Justice, Leylin saw another noble. His astounding memory caused Leylin to freeze for a second, and then put on a smile while going forward.
“Marquis Lancet! Long time no see…”
The noble who had come along with the bishop to meet Leylin was the one who held power over Yorkshire, and the one that had split the territories of a few unlucky noble families, Lancet.
“After hearing the beautiful birdsong from skylarks this morning, I knew something great was going to happen. I didn’t expect it would be your arrival…”
Lancet now had a sincere smile on his face. He had a vivid memory of this kid who had gotten a position as a viscount during the feast of the dividing of lands in the north. Tiff, who he was helping, seemed to be doing something strange, but that wasn’t important!
Leylin was now a legend! It was impossible to go wrong with improving their relationship. Actually, Marquis Lancet was already regretting not giving Leylin more.
“But… who would have known that he would become a legend in a few years?”
Lancet observed Leylin’s young face, removing the jealousy deep in his heart with some difficulty and then smiling brightly.
“Also… this is a bishop of the God of Justice, Scholar Benedict, who’s also a friend of mine…”
“I express my deepest gratitude for Sire’s determination in offering yourself in the name of righteousness… The refugees suffering in the north will never forget your contributions…”
Benedict’s voice was kind and resolute, and there was a glint in his eyes unique to those willing to die for their cause.
Leylin had no qualms that if Benedict were to be told that his death would save the lives of all commoners of the north, he would kill himself without hesitation.
It was pity that the people who were the most resolute were also the most troublesome…
“I’m only here because of a promise with Rafiniya. Whether I’ll make my move at the end and when I do it is my freedom…”
Leylin had no plans of being careless with this and answered, causing the atmosphere to turn cold in an instant.
“Uh… haha… Whatever it is, having Sire Leylin coming all the way here is already enough… It must have been difficult to come so far. Please get some rest, and you can meet the other comrades later tonight…”
Lancet’s mind moved quickly and immediately dispelled the awkward atmosphere.
“Even though he’s the youngest legendary, has he already been corroded by reputation and power?”
After Leylin left, great resentment shone in Benedict’s eyes. In his eyes, all legends on the continent were the same. They only wished for power and enjoyment, and never did what they should.
There were few willing to sacrifice themselves in the name of justice, and now this seemed to also go for the youngest to become a legend.
“But of course! He became a legendary with much difficulty and reached the peak in the continent. There are countless things for him to enjoy, so what right do you have to make him die for your sake?”
Lancet snickered inside while maintaining a smile on his face, “Sire Leylin just has yet to come to terms with what’s going on yet. I’m sure with time, he’ll change his mind…”
“Sigh… I hope so! The refugees of the north can’t wait for long…”
Bishop Benedict sighed, looking as if he were bemoaning the state of the universe.
“The paladins and priests of the god of justice are all lunatics…”
While already mentally prepared, Leylin had honestly been scared by his naivety. If the bishop was like this, then he could guess at what the clerics were like. They were definitely not people Leylin would like.
“But only a church with such a zealous ambience would attract Rafiniya and have her treat this as her final home…”
Chapter 980 – Secret Meeting
Secret Meeting
Leylin sighed inside. A member of the clergy guided him to the back of the church.
Golden sunlight streamed into the room through the windows, showing the motes of dust in the air. Furniture and all other decorations were simple, as was customary in the church of justice.
“If you have any needs, please press the doorbell here. We will await any orders… Also, the meeting with the other lords will be after dinner. Paladin Rafiniya will arrive very soon.” The servant that had brought Leylin in withdrew and closed the door.
Rafiniya came quickly. After all, Leylin was a legendary, and it was necessary to show him the required respect. Unfortunately for such a moronic paladin, Leylin had no common topic to discuss with her.
After enjoying a simple dinner, Leylin was guided to a small drawing room. A few masters with powerful auras were lying in wait.
‘Are these the other legendaries?’ Leylin nodded and headed inside.
The room was rather small. There was a bright red fur rug on the ground as well as a fireplace that was blazing brightly. However, there was no scent of smoke in the air. While this was the north, the room was still as warm as if it were spring.
“You… You must be the rumoured wizard from the outer seas. Leylin, right? You really are very young!”
Leylin’s entrance immediately gathered their attention. A long-haired woman wrapped in a red mink fur coat stood up with a kind smile on her face.
“Besides us old geezers of the north, you arrived quite quickly.”
She was evidently a legendary, and from the elemental domain power around her, she was a legendary wizard!
“Let me introduce myself. My name is Lillian, and next to me here is the paladin of the god of justice, Sire Patrick. Next to the fireplace is the protector of the north, the legendary druid, Alegor.”
There were very few legends in the room, numbering only three.
The Queen Alustriel of Silverymoon and her chief scholar, Blu were not around. They were people that Leylin had wished to meet, and this left him slightly disappointed.
“Greetings…”
Of course, Leylin presented himself humbly on the surface and greeted the three of them politely while judging them.
Lillian was a traditional wizard. Undulations from magic items and scrolls were emitted from her body, and there even seemed to be some hidden aura there, likely some legendary item sh had with her. Her battle might was not to be underestimated.
Patrick, on the other hand, was a man of few words and looked rather cold. This actually had Leylin snickering inside. Recalling the legendary paladin that had died at his hands, who had been said to be a judge or something like that, he was sure that the god of justice’s church must have been dealt a great blow.
The last one was the legendary druid, Alegor, who was dressed in an interesting manner.
He was a burly man over three metres tall and with a thick brown beard. Next to his fuzzy ears was a pair of large forked horns like that of elks, with some leaves appearing at the tip. This druid did not wear much, and only had some beast hide and leaves that had been used to make an apron. This revealed a hairy and broad chest, which made him seem rather wild.
“Initially, as the protector of nature, I should not participate in these activities. However, those orcs are destroying nature to a terrifying degree, which goes against the most fundamental cycle and harmony here…”
Alegor now looked solemn, giving Leylin all the information he needed in a few sentences.
In general, all druids took on the responsibility of protecting nature. They were strongly against any actions taken to destroy it, and there was even the rise of radicals against this.
