Earth’s Greatest Magus

Chapter 598: Leaving



Chapter 598: Leaving

Emery returned to the shrine and quickly told the High Priestess about how the legendary sword was apparently unwilling to be wielded by him nor Arthur. The reason he came back apart from checking on Morgana again was also to ask more details and specifics about the vision Gaia had shown him, which the High Priestess also had.

“What exactly do we need to worry about and when will it happen?”

The vision given to him had specifically shown the importance of the sword. Therefore, Emery believed being able to wield its inherent power should be the main key to face whatever it was threatening Gaia in the future.

Unfortunately, the High Priestess told him that Gaia was quiet about this and still hadn’t said anything since the last interaction. However, she also believed that this odd situation was a matter of importance because she never found Gaia to be so restless ever since the time she became the High Priestess, which was two hundred years ago.

As for the sword, it had always been part of Briton’s history dating back as far as two thousand years ago. The High Priestess didn’t really have any knowledge about it.

Hearing an answer that basically didn’t help him at all, Emery could only shake his head helplessly. Now the only way he had left was to wait for his next visit to the academy to check about the sword.

A high-tier sword with such a level of grandeur couldn’t be too hard to find the information of, couldn’t it?

Returning his thoughts to the main reason for him returning to the shrine, Emery’s eyes shifted toward the pond where Morgana’s body was still lying there unmoving.

Looking at the girl who looked more fragile than glass, he muttered. “Wait for me, I will definitely find a way to heal you.”

Another task he would keep in mind and objective to bring back from the academy.

Afterwards, Emery told the High Priestess that he would be leaving for a year. The latter seemed to be able to guess that he was about to train somewhere far and would be unreachable to her as she gave him her sincere wish and hope for his successful return.

Not forgetting about his pack, Emery decided to spend some time with them. 

Emery also told them to be careful as he won’t be sticking around for them for a year, specifically when the Fey were interacting with the humans.

Although the people of Brittania had much better perception toward the Fey village thanks to what the Akavi warriors contributed during the previous battle, the girls who had the ability to transform into a wolf would certainly need some time and not easily be accepted into society. Therefore, Emery told them to restrain themself from using their transformation and focus their attention on training their spells.

Emery then made his way to the Quintins estate. The reason he came to the Quintins was actually for the ingredients that he ordered weeks ago.

Emery would surely continue his study and take the exams at the Apothecary Institution when he returned to the academy. Therefore, he planned to have any kind of advantage he could get for them.

He had been gathering a large amount of Gaia Essence and blue powders; they were all stored safely in his [Spatial Storage]. He also didn’t forget to clean and pick up any available Caracas Flower that had matured in its habitat.

During his one year travel across the world, Emery had also found a dozen types of tier 2.

Emery assumed these ingredients might be a useful addition to his apothecary works later in the academy, then he asked Luna to buy and import a large quantity of these dozen plants and seeds.

After storing the massive amount of goods Luna helped him acquire in his [Spatial Storage], Emery returned to the Khaos space and spent his last few days cultivating there.

The last minute push did not seem fruitless as Emery received the familiar notification in his mind.

[Spirit force increased]

[Spirit force increased]

Three days later, Emery received a different notification from the symbol on his hand.

[One day left until the recall spell to the magus academy is activated]

Emery opened his eyes. He planned to use the last hours he had to help Arthur regarding the Roman matter.

When he stood up and was about to leave, Killgragah noticed his actions and asked, “Is it time already?”

“Yes, Lord Killgragah. Thank you for your guidance. I will return in one year.”

The dragon still couldn’t hide its annoyance at him leaving. Realizing that, Emery didn’t say anything and only gave the former a bow. He then opened the portal to the outside world and was about to step into it when the dragon suddenly said something.

“Here, this is the most I can help you with. I have nothing else to offer.”

Emery turned around and saw the dragon throwing two pieces of black diamond-shaped objects that he quickly recognized as its scales at him. 

“Those two just recently came off these last few weeks” said the dragon

He remembered how one of this scale was able to save his life during his fight against Hades. He knew they would be very useful for him. Therefore, he quickly gave his gratitude to the dragon again before leaving through the portal.

Stepping out of the portal, Emery arrived just outside of what used to be the Cantiaci Palace. However, the area was currently filled with hundreds of Roman soldiers who were dressed in their signature red robes.

With his [Spirit Reading], Emery could sense that Arthur was currently at one of the hills outside of the palace. The two groups seemed to agree to have the meeting there, and as expected, he also perceived that Julian was there.

Emery cast another [Spatial Gate]. But as soon as he arrived, he was treated to the sight of both sides already drawing swords at each other. Their demeanor told him that they were ready to fight at any moment.

His eyes immediately fell on Julian who was wearing his new dashing armour. Before he could ask what was going on, the latter said something that made his head hurt.

“Ahh.. Emery, thank god you’re here! Can you help me talk some sense to these people here?”

Said Julian casually

“I was just saying it’s futile to go against the Romans. Britannia wouldn’t be able to resist the inevitable.”
