Chapter 467: Messages

Venta Town

Bang! Bang!

The banging sounds echoed throughout the quiet courtyard, as the beautiful girl hit on the door.

"Emery, it has been 6 days already!" Klea shouted.

For the past six days, Emery spent his time cultivating with [Nature Grasp]. Part of him wanted to pretend he was in a trance and thus forgot about the time, but in truth, he was trying to buy more time waiting for news from a certain girl.

He wished he could just [Spatial Gate] himself to Camelot and ask for her decision, and, in truth he was worried. He couldn't shake the thought of what her answer will be. Will she reject him again?

Bang! Bang!

Klea once more banging the door and It was more insistent this time.

"Hey, Emery! You know I can easily break this door apart, don't you? Open up!"

Emery stood up, stretched his body, and opened the door. At first, he was expecting Klea to unleash all her pent-up anger on him, but to his surprise, as soon as the door open he saw her expression was more or less neutral. She walked in, looked at him, and said with a caring tone.

"I am sorry Emery, I don't think she is coming"

Emery took a deep breath. No matter what he did, it appeared that there was nothing this girl didn't know about him.

She looked away for a moment, her gaze looking conflicted before she stared firmly towards his eyes. "Emery, I didn't say this before because I didn't want to push you to make a decision, but…"

"What is it, Klea?" Emery had known Klea for quite some time, he could tell when the time for jokes was over. Her gaze was nothing but serious.

"Actually…"

Klea talked about her trip from Egypt to Briton, a long voyage that took her more than three months. The reason was that she wanted to come and visit their dear friend Julian in Rome which was just across from Egypt.

It took her quite a while to find him as Julian was on duty with his Legion and at the same time, a huge slave rebellion was happening that complicated things further.

Of course, Emery was concerned for his friend, Julian, but he was confused about how any of this was relevant to their current situation.

Until Klea's last sentence sent a chill to his heart.

"The slave leader was none other than Thrax, our dear Thracian!. You see, while we're wasting time here, our friends are probably killing each other right now.

This really was a concerning news

"I actually did manage to find Thrax, but he doesn't wish to listen to me. later I found out that the? Romans did terrible things to him and... they killed his wife."

The information left him speechless and shook him to the heart. Here he was, delaying his quest for the sake of one girl, while his friend's wife was murdered.

Klea added "Emey, Thrax was in a lot of pain and anger. I was hoping maybe he would listen to you"

Emery gripped his hand until the tips of his fingers turned white as regret came to him.

There was no need for more time waiting for her. He nodded at Klea and said. "Yes, let us go."

Emery's decision only made Klea immensely happy.

"Alright, my ship has docked in Lioness City harbor already, we can leave as soon as possible. Tomorrow at noon, maybe?"

Seeing no reason to neither argue nor delay, Emery agreed. "Yes, alright, tomorrow at noon, we will go."

"Okay, tomorrow it is."

Emery took a deep sigh. This journey would take months, possibly more than a year. There was also a probability that things go wrong that he can only be returned after the third year of the academy, which will be years. Hence, he needed a bit of preparation.

Klea suggested that she left first to go to the harbor to prepare the ship, as Lioness City was merely a few hours' ride from Venta Town, but Emery stopped her and asked her to wait a while for him first. There were only a few things he had to take care, after that, they could go together with his [Spatial Gate] spell.

In the end, she agreed with his plan and chose to wait in the estate's.

First things first, Emery opened the [Spatial Gate] and went to his hut in the fey village. He opened his [Spatial Storage] and placed all his important ingredients inside, as there was no way to know when he would ever need one of those. From what Klea had told him, being involved in Roman's war was a possibility.

Next, he went to the Quintins' estate to see Luna and tell her about his travel plans. Luna thought to give him the Egypt territory maps she had collected in her trading venture, but she hesitates, as she remembered Emery was going to travel with an Egyptian Queen. She must have a much better version.

She then told him the way she normally communicates with her network across the sea. With this just in case, he has trouble with his spell, Emery could send and receive messages. With weeks of delay or maybe even months depending on how far it was.

Luna smiled and decided to ask. "Merlin, you could make one message now and I will deliver it"

Emery rubbed the back of his head. Apparently, all these girls know too much about him. Emery nodded and Luna called for a servant to bring a piece of parchment and a bottle of ink to the living room.

Emery quickly prepared a letter for Gwen, as the quill touch the parchment his mind was troubled. Other than a message saying he has to leave to help a friend in need, it occurs to him that he might be writing a goodbye later for her.

It took him longer than he thought to finally write his letter.

Afterwards, he thanked Luna, before he walked out of the Quintins' estate courtyard. He opened a [Spatial Gate] back to his house to pick Klea up. Right after he appeared in front of the door, he went inside and realize the girl has been waiting.

"Alright Klea, I am ready, let's go-"

Only for him to see that it wasn't Klea that was waiting for him. A familiar golden-haired girl stood in front of him, with a serious expression etched on her otherwise beautiful face.

"Gwen… You are here."
