Childhood Friend Is a Genius Wizard - Childhood Friend Is a Genius Wizard chapter 89
EP11. The meaning of adventure (4)
Sean looked at Lielsia.
She was the same as the last time I saw her in my memory. It’s been less than a month since she started her adventure, so it’s natural to look at it?
Actually, she didn’t really feel that she was getting older. Even now, when Sean was young, Lee Elcia has maintained her beautiful appearance.
“Oops. It’s embarrassing to stare at you like that.”
The smirk was also the same. She was the Lielcia she had always seen. So Sean couldn’t hide his confusion.
How the hell am I supposed to accept it? When her feelings for her come to Sean, who has already crashed to the end, so suddenly.
“·······.”
“Sorry. Won’t she say hello to her sister?”
Are you saying it appears now? I’d rather come later, a little later.
She would have been much better if I had seen her after her feelings for her had completely subsided.
Because I was soaked in memories of her. Maybe it’s because she’s immersed in her memories with her. It was hard for Sean to hate Lielcia. Even though she must have deceived everyone including herself and did vicious things.
No matter how hard she tried to hold on to her heart, it was because Lee Elcia definitely existed in her childhood days when she was happy.
But she couldn’t stay like this. Just because she stays still doesn’t make things better.
Sean looked at her with her cold, sunken eyes and opened her mouth.
“Reelsia.”
“…I never thought my Sean would call my sister by her first name. Of course, that’s not bad either.”
“Why did you bring me here?”
At the boy’s chilly question, Lee Elsia muttered with her lonely smile.
“It’s cold…”
“·······.”
No. Don’t be fooled by such words. She’s not like the sweet neighborhood sister she knew. Her intentions are swayed by her obvious tricks. Words are what she wants.
I’m sure it will. For sure.
“Here. Didn’t you like it? It’s a place prepared for our Sean.”
“And it is something that no ordinary person can do.”
“Right. My sister has a special side.”
Lielsia has always been like this. When Sean gets even a little serious, she spills it over in a playful response. Then in the end, she was the one who gave up first. When her little boy let out a deep sigh, she wondered if it looked cute again, and at the end of the day she hugged her boy and the situation was over.
“Why are you in Elioden?”
“Well, I came because I wanted to meet Sean and Levy.”
Since it wasn’t the answer he wanted, Shawn frowned and asked another question.
“How did you know we were here?”
“My sister can find out where our Sean is. Because they are bound by the thread of fate.”
The thread of fate. Sean didn’t even respond because it would be nothing more than nonsensical bullsh*t, as always.
“Speak quickly. There must be a reason why you came all the way here to meet us!”
“But you don’t want to answer me?”
“····What?”
At Lielcia’s absurd answer, Sean forgot how angry he was and asked back in a bewildered manner. As if his reaction was cute, she smiled slightly and quickly explained why.
“That’s right, my Sean suddenly hated his sister, so it made me sad. Can you tell me why? If my sister did anything wrong, I’ll fix it. Huh?”
“·······.”
Does she still see herself as a child in her eyes? I didn’t really like her tone, which seemed to be gentle and soothing beyond her kind expression. More than anything else, it irritated her to pretend she didn’t know when she should already know.
“You. Are you a cheater?”
“A swindler. That’s what you thought of your sister. It hurts.”
“Is it really true to serve the god of prophecy?”
“Hasn’t that my Shawn ever seen?”
She seemed to refute all of Sean’s suspicions, but gave no definitive answer.
I thought I was going crazy. On the other side of her deep heart was her own self who wanted to believe in her. However, all the circumstance and evidence already says that the woman named Lee Elcia should not be trusted, she says.
In the end, Shawn was exhausted. When the anger subsided, all that was left was resignation and sadness. As a boy faced with the loss of his older sister whom he followed and liked the most. Shawn spoke last.
“····Really. Please answer me properly.”
“·······.”
“Please.”
“Okay.”
She obediently agreed. Shawn asked in a trembling voice.
“····My older sister. Are you really a witch’s child?”
At some point, the reliable young man returned to the boy of her childhood days. She was in so much emotional turmoil that she unknowingly moistened the corners of her eyes. It was a great pain for Sean.
Lee Elsia answered quietly, wiping Sean’s tears with a smile more benevolent than anyone else’s.
“I swear everything. My sister is not a witch’s child.”
“Really?”
“Really.”
Can you believe it? Should I believe Is it right to believe
Those questions didn’t come to Sean right away. All that comes is peace and tranquility.
From noble mtl dot com.
Maybe it is the sweet fruit of good and evil that deceives the boy. But Sean desperately needed that sweetness.
Didn’t she swear? I still don’t know what Lielcia’s true identity is.
Wouldn’t it be okay for her to believe that at least she wasn’t a witch’s child? Sean thought so.
So the boy decided to believe Rielsia’s answer.
“……Okay. I will believe you.”
“Whoops. Thank you.”
As he calmed down, Sean realized too late that he was in her arms.
He didn’t even notice that they were embracing. It was to the point where she seriously wondered if she had jumped into her arms first. If that was true, Sean would have no face seeing Lielcia’s face.
“Over there… I wish I could let you go now…”
“Eh. I hate that. Hasn’t it been a while since you’ve been like this?”
At her own request, she pulled her into her arms even more strongly, and then her soft touch and sweet smell dominated her senses. Shaun shoved her away weakly, much to her embarrassment. The fallen boy cried out with his face completely red.
“····Me, I am no longer a kid!”
“Of course. That she grew up this way at some point.”
The atmosphere has become mysterious. I never thought of a situation like this. Sean asked a question while hiding his embarrassment. Because he hadn’t heard the most important answer.
“So you won’t tell me why your sister is here?”
“Hmm. He asked that question I will answer you.”
When the moment finally came to hear the answer to the question, Shawn felt nervous for some reason. Indeed, why did she come all the way to Elioden? Lielcia answered.
“Sooner or later the time will come when you will have to make a choice.”
Select? Sean had doubts at the unexpected rush, but for now, he quietly listened to what she said.
“You will choose between the left and the right.”
“····Left and right?”
“Choose the right then.”
It was completely unpredictable. Just left and right. It was so expansive that I had no idea what kind of choices would be later.
“…Is that what the Spirit of Prophecy told you about?”
If anyone else had given him that kind of advice, Shawn wouldn’t have listened. But she is a priest who believes in God no matter what. Isn’t that nothing other than believing in the God of Prophecy? What Lielcia said was no different from a prophecy no matter who heard it.
“Right.”
“What if I choose left?”
“The decision is ultimately yours to make, so it’s okay to choose left. You’re just giving Sean some advice.”
Sean thought for a moment. The immediate conclusion was simple. There’s nothing wrong with remembering her words for now. He would have to go and see what kind of choice he had to make. Making that decision, Sean nodded his head.
“Once I get it. I will remember.”
“Whoops. Thank you for listening to my sister.”
“Is that all there is to it?”
“Um… Shall we do that? I don’t know later, but now?”
Hearing Lielcia’s answer, Shawn nodded his head. Then there is no reason to be here anymore. Because there is no time to delay now. You never know what will happen to Levi outside. It would be fortunate if Wiz’s warning meant Rielcia, but if not, she wouldn’t know if Levi still had a danger.
“Then I will go.”
“Are you going to Levi?”
“Yes.”
“····I envy you. Levi.”
“… Huh?”
“Whoops. Nothing.”
Lee Elcia, who smiled in her usual joking tone, ran her hair through her hair, she said.
“Is everything going well with him?”
“It goes well. What····.”
“Oops. Are you pretending not to know? Do you like it Levi.”
“·······.”
The boy’s silence was positive. Did she know that too? It was strange that she didn’t even know. Sean’s eyes were always on Levi. Even if not only Rielcia but everyone in the village noticed it, it was natural.
“I haven’t found the answer yet. Yes?”
“What answer are you talking about?”
“What is it? The answer to Levi’s question.”
“How do you do that…”
Sean, about to ask a question, immediately shuts him up. He didn’t think she would give an answer if he asked, and if she was going to question it, wouldn’t it be right to do the same for all the other far more important things. So the boy decided to just move on.
“Of course you will have to find the answer yourself, but can you give me a hint?”
“…Hint.”
Shawn thought. She fizzled out, but Levy hoped she would find the answer herself. Of course, if he could figure out the perfect answer on his own, there would be no better situation than that, but Sean just couldn’t find the answer.
“····Tell me. Hint.”
“Look at spring rather than winter.”
As expected, it was a cryptic answer worthy of Rielcia. However, the moment he heard those words, he got a vague sense of her, so Sean kept her words deeply in his heart.
“Thank you. Then I’ll really go.”
“Be careful. I will always support you.”
Shawn nodded and turned around. Then, without hesitation, he exited the door and out of his cabin. Lee Elsia continued to look at her boy’s back until he disappeared. When Sean was finally out of sight, she muttered a single word in the rest of the house.
“I’m sorry…”

Levi greeted with her article and brief introduction.
“Hmm. Did you say Mr. Valent?”
“Yes. Miss Levy.”
“So you came all the way here from Laes to meet us?”
Valent nodded and corrected Levi’s words.
“To be precise, the place of departure is the capital, but it is true that it is from Laes.”
“The reason you came to see us is… What did you say?”
Even for Levy, who is usually recognized for his intelligence, it was difficult to understand at once what he just said. It’s because it’s complicated and it’s hard to accept.
“To put it simply, it’s about those who command monsters.”
“Yes. So?”
“I heard that you guys in Laes responded as if you knew about the subject.”
“Ah…”
Levy remembered what happened in Laes. I’m sure I heard something like that in the middle. Above all, right before he left the city, he read the great adventurer’s records through Shriegel and Kania.
“I have heard of the great adventurer.”
“・・・・Um. Then, why did you come to us?”
“I’ll tell you right away. I want you guys to accompany me.”
