Lord Summoner's Freedom Philosophy: Grimoire of Love

Chapter 140 Journey To The North (8) The Continuation



Through the deeper side of the Astellia Kingdom beneath the Bruinsan village where Mia, Lia, and Nia live, the road steadily gets better as they get near the first town to the north. Lyan went through several other small villages, but since there are no seasonal storms to be wary of, he went straight to the first town of the southern region of Astellia Kingdom's territory.

There are fewer monsters and magic beasts he encountered as he gets near the town, and there are people that seem to be adventurers surveying throughout the forest.

(Hm~ Adventurers, huh? That's the first time I encountered some... I've tasted the experience of being a mercenary, maybe trying to experience being an adventurer later might be fun as well. But first, the journey to the north comes first) (Lyan)

The birds' chirps, the rustling leaves and bushes of the forest, and the sound of the wagon's wheels. Looking at forward as he sits in the coachman's seat, Lyan imagined the place in the north that was called the eternal winter beyond the central plains.

Hazy and blurry scenes of the long-forgotten memories of winter of his hometown on earth appeared in his mind. He knows the fact that he plays together with his little sister, his niece, and his friends, but he can't seem to recall the clear image and what he did back then.

The feeling of forgetting something important drives his desire to went to the north to see the snowing winter, hoping that he might remember the fun memories of the long past. For Lyan, his memories of his previous lives on earth are very important and more precious than any kind of treasures this world might offer.

There's actually a place filled with memories where he could easily recall the scenes and memories of his previous life on earth, which is the apartment room that was somehow summoned at the grimoire's space house. But that apartment room that was filled with too much with memories might overload his heart with different kinds of overflowing emotions.

(But even so, I need to take the first step. Inside the apartment room, there are books that would definitely give me lots of benefits in this world. And there is also the computer that is filled with lots of electronic books and data that will be beneficial as well) (Lyan)

It's fine if it's just slow, it's fine for the step to be a short one, but at least he needs to move forward. By facing forward the memories of his past, he will eventually be able to enter the apartment room without having the overbearing pain in his chest.

As he held his chest, a certain saying that his sister used to tell him resonated throughout his head.

(True peace is to settle and make peace with your own past, huh...) (Lyan)

"But there are too many conflicts in the past for me to settle and make peace with, sis..." Lyan uttered sentimentally as he stared at the sky, the blurry face of his little sister seemed to be formed by the clouds as if the gods are asking him to remember her.

Lyan let out a self-mocking snort and closed his eyes. As aggressive as the black horse might be, his intellect is leagues beyond normal horses. Even without Lyan holding the reins, he knew and could follow the highway road independently.

Along the way from the Bruinsan village, the black horse has been rather obedient to his orders. But it's not because of nothing, it's because that he had his complete fill unleashing his sexual drive at the village.

Lyan heard that he sometimes went to stables to stables to visit the mares of the other stables and have fun with them along the night. There are no villagers that complained since the seed from such a strong, big, and smart black horse will give them the same quality horse for the village.

As Lyan was about to curse at the vulgar horse, he remembered about the number of women he has to take care of in such a short duration.

(I heard that there might be war in near future. I can't protect them if they are scattered all over the place, and I can't just bring them all over the place with a huge wagon... I need a place... A home, huh...?) (Lyan)

Finally, Lyan remembered the words Abraham the refined butler told him. He mentioned about a home, a place to return, and a place to settle. It's easy for him to buy a big house with his current wealth, but just a big house can't ensure the safety of his family.

Then he remembered the words of Jose and Abraham, as well as the invitation from the crown prince of the Astellia Kingdom.

If he became a noble and granted a territory, it will not be difficult for him to station a big amount of guards to protect her family. He could also openly summon his grimoire's creatures to wander around and have some freedom to play around the territory. The annoying things are that his freedom might get limited by his obligations towards the kingdom, and he might need to go to wars and battles of the kingdom's affairs.

"A noble, huh..." Staring at the clouds that seem to have formed in a form of a shield.

"I guess I need to start to consider it seriously..." (Lyan)

*******************************************

---Astellia Kingdom's royal castle, Capital city of Astalte---

"""Welcome back, Prince Erich!"""

The guards and servants of the castle that had gathered at the entrance bowed and welcomed their master as their master arrived.

With a small smile and a raise of hand, their master benevolently told them-

"Thank you everyone, but there's no need to welcome me like this. You should return to your posts and continue your work," (Erich)

The guards and servants gave their responses of telling him how he's too modest and too kind, but there are none of them that seems to be saying their words of gratitude and praise with no sincerity.

After giving a satisfied nod and a friendly smile to them, Erich proceed and went to walk to his own chamber at the royal chamber at the inner castle.

"His royal highness is as benevolent as always!"

"And he's as handsome as always!"

"I heard that his quest to the south to vanquish the uprising of the goblin king went smoothly without him exposing his identity to the people of the Arkansas!"

"What a modest person as always... I wonder if I could be his concubine or mistress..."

The maids are gathering and squealing as they gossips about the handsome and charismatic prince of the kingdom.

The crown prince of the Astellia Kingdom.

A prodigy that was praised for being highly capable in every aspect that is necessary for a king to have. Whether it is fighting, military tactics, political schemes, and communication with the people, he has all of them. He also inherited the strong royal magic blood that carries the magic of the royal flame with him, giving him a powerful strength as a mage as well.

The whole kingdom respects him, since he's not just a prodigy, but he has a kind and noble heart as well. The servants of the royal castle especially adore him since they saw him occasionally, and fell for not just his great looks, but his noble and charismatic aura, together with his capabilities of bringing achievements whenever he goes.

*Thud!*

As the door shut, the adored prince that only entered with a single maid gave a gesture to the maid, and the maid immediately covers all of the curtains and turns on the lights inside the room.

"Your highness, isn't it time for you to lay low? If you continue to do so many activities, I'm afraid that it might give the risk of having your cover getting blown," The maid that gives off the vibe of a seasonal fighter worriedly suggests to her master.

"It's a step that is necessary for me to take, so I took them," The one that had been called as the crown prince hold his hair, and pulled them. But with that single pull, a beautiful silky long blonde hair slowly and gracefully falls downwards. The hands that finally got exposed from the long gloves are pale white and very smooth, took the wet cloth prepared by the maid and wiped the face, revealing a beautiful face that holds both peerless beauty and intellect.

"With our current condition, Evocatore, no, Lyan is someone that we absolutely need,"
