A peerless killer possessing a cat girl assassin from another world
Chapter 952 Puzzle
There is still one day until the meeting time.
On the last day, Baiye decided to have Wuyue visit Lysa and give her the dragon stone fragments he had obtained from Leowen.
Upon arriving at the residence of the court sorcerers, they bumped into Melmed.
"Wuyue? She's back."
"I've come to see Aunt Lysa; I have something important to give her."
"What a coincidence, I'm also looking for her, let's go together."
Upon entering, almost all the palace monks' eyes were drawn to it.
Generally speaking, they are not easily disturbed when they are engaged in research.
But this time period is clearly not working hours.
Everyone in the room stood up and bowed to Melmed.
"Commander Melmed!"
"Ah."
Melmed responded simply, without stopping, and led Wuyue straight up to the second floor.
"That must be an honorary mage, right? He's come several times now, and every time Lord Landsol comes, he's all smiles... It's so nice to receive such treatment without having to do any work."
Some people whispered as they watched Wuyue's retreating figure.
"You don't know, do you? That's His Majesty's distinguished guest. Oh right, I forgot you only joined us the year before last..."
"They have the ability to get honorary titles, so stop gossiping about them and get back to work."
These words reached Wuyue's ears without missing a single one.
A person who is inexplicably granted the title of honorary mage and almost never shows up here is indeed prone to controversy.
You'll get used to it...
......
"Lady Lysa."
"Oh, it's little Melmee. Oh? And Muzuki is here too?"
"It seems the hero's pilgrimage is going very smoothly."
"Should you speak first or should I?"
Melmed looked at Wuyue and asked.
"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry, you go first."
"Row."
Melmed nodded and said seriously:
"Lady Lysa, the situation in the East is currently tense, and our soldiers have suffered considerable casualties. His Majesty is considering deploying some of the Knights and court mages as support forces, which is why he sent me to make contact with you."
"That makes sense. Relying solely on an Eastern Frontier Legion to withstand the Demon Clan's offensive is simply too much of a stretch..."
The eastern border of the Kingdom of Dorok borders the territory of the demons, and apart from a hill that serves as a natural barrier, there is no fortress of the level of Sacred Deer Valley as a base.
This means that the demon race has not yet launched a full-scale war.
If things get serious, they could launch an attack from the west, first taking the Kingdom of Dorok, then advancing along the southern slopes of the northern section of the Dukush Mountains to directly strike the Kingdom of Fajia. Besieged on both sides and with their supplies cut off, the Sacred Deer Valley, once a fortress, would be completely transformed into a graveyard for the allied forces.
"I'm fine on my end, and I'm ready to serve Your Majesty at any time."
"Where is the Knights?"
"My father originally volunteered to lead a team to provide support, but I took the lead instead."
Melmed's words were full of smugness.
After all, she is now the Grand Master of the Knights, while Raymond has long since been promoted to Vice Grand Master. With the father and daughter's roles reversed, it's clear who's in charge.
"It's very much in Melmei's style..."
Lysa laughed.
"Ahem, in short, His Majesty's message has been conveyed, so I'll take my leave now. Goodbye."
Melmed turned and walked away.
......
"Young people are full of energy."
"So, Wuyue, you never come here for no reason. This time, there must be something important to discuss."
Lysa took off the lens, leaned back in her chair, and relaxed.
"Well, actually... I'm here to deliver something to you..."
As she spoke, Wuyue swept her hand across the table, and a pile of shards clattered and rattled.
Crunch!
A loud crash came from the chair; just from the sound, you'd think it was about to break.
Lysa's eyes widened instantly; the woman, who was in her fifties, nearly fell off her chair.
"This...this is..."
Lysa's voice trembled as she looked at the fragments on the table and then back at the half-assembled stone slab on the wall, unable to believe it was true.
“Yes, Aunt Lysa, it’s exactly what you think.”
"...How is this possible? Are these genuine? Where did you get them?"
"These were collected over many years by a friend who is passionate about collecting. He was deeply moved after learning that the court sorcerers of Dorok had devoted considerable effort to studying this stone tablet and was willing to donate it free of charge..."
Wuyue recited the words that Baiye had already prepared.
Although it's somewhat exaggerated, there's not a single lie in it.
Leowen was indeed passionate about collecting (collecting everything), and he spent a considerable amount of time on it (over two thousand years), and he was even willing to donate it free of charge (in exchange for a story).
Lysa picked up a stone slab with great respect and examined it carefully.
Only after confirming that its material was exactly the same as those on the wall behind him did two lines of tears unknowingly stream down his face.
"Finally... finally."
The life's work of our predecessors has finally yielded a tremendous reward today.
"Wuyue, how can I possibly thank you, especially that selfless and kind collector..."
“Aunt Lysa, as I have said before, I do not ask for anything in return. Like you, I just hope that one day I can see it pieced together.”
"Good, good boy..."
Lysa was deeply moved.
After a while, Lysa finally calmed down.
She smiled and said to Wuyue:
"Wuyue, I hope you can witness this honor firsthand... no, complete it yourself."
"Let's piece these fragments together and put them back on the wall, shall we?"
"That would be my honor."
......
This was Wuyue's first time participating in the on-site restoration of stone slabs.
I thought it was just a simple matter of piecing together and gluing... but the actual process was much more complicated than I imagined.
Lysa picked up a fragment that was clearly on the edge of the map and began chanting some unfamiliar incantation.
Before long, the fragments began to emit a ghostly blue light.
"Come, Wuyue, put it up there."
Lysa handed the fragment to Wuyue, indicating that she could handle it directly.
Wuyue nodded, aimed at the spot on the wall, and gently pressed it down.
"Okay, stay still."
Soon, Lysa began chanting the second half of the spell.
The entire wall was infected by that blue light, emitting the same glow.
Visibly, the edge of that fragment began to merge with the other fragments into one piece...
In the following time, the two worked together to piece together the fragments one by one.
"call......"
Lysa took a deep breath.
It's clear that those unique healing spells are extremely mana-intensive.
Even for her, it would be difficult to sustain such a long period of magic consumption.
But looking at the stone slab on the wall, almost completely pieced together except for one missing corner, Lysa's pale face was once again filled with relief.
The efforts of thousands of years and dozens of generations have not been in vain...
