After a few hours of walking around the kingdom of Erela, Leal decided to bring to another hilltop. But at least this ti, this one did not have statues in it. It was just a simple hilltop where we could see the beautiful view of the forest beneath.
As I turned my gaze to Leal, I found him staring at the cliff far away from our location but still visible. It's a very stiff cliff located at the boundary of the kingdom and the vast forest. For so reason, there was sothing on that cliff that made Leal look nostalgic as if that place made him rember sothing.
"What's in that place?" I asked out of curiosity.
"Everything." He said with a gentle smile on his face. He turned his gaze at . "That spot is the most beautiful place in this kingdom."
If that's the case, why not bring there first! You had walking around this freaking kingdom while being flooded with looks of disgust and those places weren't even the most beautiful places in this kingdom!
"We can still go to that place if you like, you know?"
However, Leal did not reply and just remained silent while staring at the cliff with his gentle smile. He did not hear , he was busy being sentintal.
There is definitely sothing in that place!
For a few minutes, none of us talked and just felt the gentle wind touching us as we watched the beautiful scenery in front of us. The trees beneath were gracefully swaying to the gentle lody of the wind and the sound of the birds and other animals inhabiting the place.
He moved and stared at . "That's it for today, I know you are already tired walking around, we should take our rest now. Thanks for accompanying around."
Ah... So, we're not going to that place?
I shook my head. "No. Thanks for touring around your kingdom." I crossed my arms as I suddenly rembered sothing. "Anyway, you ntioned sothing about the Fairy king earlier? And he is part of... what was it again? Four pillars?"
"Yes, I did. The Fairy king, Roshan. The ruler of the Fairies, the superior race variant of the elven people. Why?"
I unleashed my crossed arms and put them in my pants pocket. "The Four Pillars of Ulterra. What is that?"
Four pillars? Doesn't it sound interesting! It sounds like a group of big shots!
I cleared my throat. "Is that so kind of group? An alliance or sothing?"
Leal shook his head. "No. I won't call them allies. Because each of the Four Pillars has been seeing each other as no less than enemies." He put his hand on his chin. "The Four Pillars is more of a class, a set of people so powerful that putting them in class S rank is an awful disrespect to their superior capabilities. Those four individuals are generally known as the four of the most powerful individuals in the entire Ulterra. They are deed invincible and extrely dangerous that only one of the Four Pillars is capable of fighting against another Pillar. The four powerhouses who rule the power hierarchy of this world."
Yep, a group of big shots. Big, big, big, big shots.
"I see. And the Fairy king is one of them."
"The very first to be proclaid as one. The Fairy king, Roshan used to govern the Ulterra and keep its harmony by the will of the Gods. However, his governance ended when the second Pillar erged in Ulterra and drastically made great changes in this world. The Night Warmonger, the Demon Lord Rael."
The fuck! Demon Lord! Of course, there's a freaking Demon Lord in this world! That person is the real deal!
"The third one is the recent Pillar who succeeded the greatest hero of humanity, Ragnar, and his spot to the top of the power hierarchy. An outstanding human who managed to climb up the ladder of the power hierarchy at an alarming rate and the current hero of humanity. The Sacred Guardian, Karsus."
The current hero! Man, if the hero of humanity is one of the fucking most powerful people in this world! With my current state, I don't think I would love to encounter that guy. I just hope he's still staying put even after all the chaos I did!
I narrowed my eyes. "And the fourth one?"
What is it this ti? We already have a Fairy king, a Demon Lord, and a freaking Hero. What is it this ti? So kind of God?
"The fourth one is the most mysterious of all the Four pillars. And probably the most dangerous... because no one knows what that person is trying to achieve." He stared at with a very serious expression on his face. "The Oracle Archmage... Magerna."
I instantly felt my eyes widen upon hearing that familiar na. I even felt all strands of my body instantly stand up.
Magerna. The author of Magerna's grimoire, the main reason why I was summoned into this world. The one who was responsible for all of this. That person is one of the Four Pillars of Ulterra!
"Is there a problem, Casimir?" Leal asked while staring at .
"Magerna, huh?" I raised my eyes towards Leal. I found him staring at while waiting for my reaction. As if he intentionally said her na last to see what my reaction was compared to the other Pillars.
As if he himself was looking for an answer that only my reaction to that na could give.
"Sounds familiar?" He asked casually.
"Yeah, I heard her na before. Oracle Archmage, huh? So, soone who can see the future? Do you know sothing about her?"
Leal shrugged. "Just like I said, she is the most mysterious out of the Four pillars. The other three are already mysterious on their own, but compared to them, Magerna is an enigma."
"I see."
For so reason, Leal's curious expression turned into a puzzling smile while staring right into my eyes. "But, I know so things about her past that may answer so of your questions."
Oh wow, he has done so research, huh?
Man, this guy, I can easily tell that he is into sothing. Him giving information about Magerna is not getting answers, it's him getting them. I can see it in his curious eyes.
I just don't know what answer he could get from , or if it's even relevant to the things that he wants to know. I don't know shit! I just hope he doesn't end up disappointed.
I exhaled and smiled. "Let hear it, then."
