My Magical System - Chapter 242

“We appreciate your visit here in our humble abode valiant saviors,” Patriarch Rue, the patriarch of the Gentlewind family, said with a slight nod of her head to her guests.

Kyle smiled slightly from the calm expression noticeable on his face. ‘Our Hero title is really useful in this world. They respect our presence wherever we go. Even the leader of upper families such as the Gentlewind family needs to show us respect. If I had only noticed this earlier I would never have experienced those things on the frontline. If I had only noticed this earlier it would have been easier for me to control the empire,’ Kyle thought inwardly.

Heroes are divine creatures for the people here in the empire. They all possess the strong divine skill and their physical strength is unmatched. Therefore, the higher families are not reluctant to have a connection with them.

It simply means, as long as they have a connection with these powerful creatures, it will add force and popularity that can deter their family competition.

Kyle and Arthur were brought inside the room with ample space. A few people could be seen inside, but the old woman in front of them immediately asked them out. The old woman in front of them was wearing a long cloth better known as a robe.

Her long white hair was tied over the head and designed with expensive hair ornaments. Even with her old age, you can hardly see the wrinkle on her face. The people of this world are indeed very mysterious. Even Kyle couldn’t hide his fascination with this world.

Although the old woman was alone in front of them, she could not be belittled. This woman is the head of the Gentlewind family. With just a flick of her finger, she could bring out those individuals hiding in the shadows in any corner of this room. Arthur and Kyle once witnessed this event, so they knew that family leaders weren’t just for show. They are protected by creatures they call Shadow Guards.

“Ahem,” Kyle coughed slightly to clear his throat. “Thank you very much for your warm greetings, Patriarch Rue.” Kyle’s head bowed slightly while his right palm was on his left chest. This action of his is only natural in this world as a show of respect for the person in front.

Kyle secretly glared at Arthur who immediately noticed his intention and imitated his action. Though, he was just compelled. Arthur was never really accustomed to these courtesies. It was just a waste of time for him. Why don’t they just talk directly? Why else is this necessary? It’s just a waste of time. Arthur sighed inwardly. If their wish comes true, he will change this habit of the people here!

Patriarch Rue smiled slightly and nodded at them. “Thank you so much for visiting again, good Heroes.”

Based on what she said, it will be noted that this is not the first time the two have visited this place. They immediately started their conversation.

They are currently sitting in front of a polished rectangular table made of an expensive kind of wood. In front of them can be seen the cup smoking from the hot expensive Tea in it. The glasses rest on a brass plate.

Moments later, Patriarch Rue grabbed the object under her sleeve. The thing she took was one piece of paper. She slid it over the table towards the two, who were sitting at the opposite end. The paper seemed to be crawling at the right speed before it stopped right in front of Kyle and next to the saucer. They immediately noticed that she used magical energy on it. Well, honestly this kind of thing is not new to them.

In this world, there are three types of energy: the magical energy that is common to people in this world, dark energy that comes from demons, and divine energy that only heroes possess.

“The report of my people is recorded there,” Patriarch Rue said in a calm tone. Kyle looked at Patriarch Rue first.

Kyle is not new to this gimmick by the leaders of their respective families. Whatever it is he has to be careful. When he noticed that there was no slight suspicion of the patriarch’s movements, he picked up the paper and read what was written on it.

As he read the letter Arthur was just quietly sitting with them. The bored expression was apparent on his face.

The language used in writing is unique. But this did not stop Kyle from understanding what was written. His lips curled up as he read the writing.

A few seconds after he had read what was written on the paper, he slowly lowered his hand. You can see the satisfied expression on his face.

“In that case, we have no problem. The palace is paralyzed this time,” Kyle said with a noticeable mysterious glint in his eyes.

Patriarch Rue also smiled. “Fufufu. All this is possible only because of your help, our gallant hero. I’m sure Duke Lucci would be very delighted with this result.”

“Heh~” Kyle snorted. “But as long as the one sitting on the throne is still the same, this has yet to end. Let’s celebrate once the imperial power is on the right hand. To where it should belong,” Kyle replied.

“Fufu. You’re right. In that case, as the current situation, it won’t be long for that to happen.”

Kyle’s mouth stretched further. “You’re right.”

“…..”

There was a momentary silence between the two. Patriarch Rue sipped her tea before opening her mouth again. “By the way, gallant hero…” she suddenly called out.

“Yes?”

“Have you heard of a group known as the Reanimated Corpse?”

Kyle stopped his action of bringing the cup closer to his mouth after hearing these familiar western words.

To his knowledge, no language in his previous world was the same as the language in this world. Even Arthur who seemed to have no interest in their conversation suddenly looked at the Patriarch when he heard this.

Patriarch Rue’s eyes narrowed when she noticed their reactions. It looks like these two know something. She guessed.
