When Ascart nodded in cb5dc95b82 confirmation, Lia’s face lit 48ce44ea0c up with the brightest 145dddf4e0 smile.5710c7f25ee97a11

Seeing that, Ascart forgot 903a3aca12 all about regretting his 3246b20267 words. Instead, he 81484a2292 took in 674fb36e24 a sharp 2aab536eb4 breath, overwhelmed.fce74956b2027a4d

Barely managing to a40ad6139d endure Ascart’s endless 86dda88967 dramatic flattery, I 90e85d24d3 finally returned to 67356903e6 the castle using c9550363dc the teleportation scroll.d9e3993d3d354ef3

The teleportation scroll was e5c9f2527e something I had poured 5752c9cb60 my heart into developing. It allowed travel 73e285a699 from the capital 0487c4ea1d of Belus to 7d165289c7 the farthest village 6e341e13c1 at the duchy’s 3355234710 borders, a truly ed154d5405 remarkable creation.a446df6aa9aa4270

Of course, just like 63bd8dc2d0 during the development phase, 713f1887dd my family would never f1f5396bfb allow me to test 8c1edd23f3 it myself.3e73a8ebb52d7598

Still, I 9892b4b672 planned to 75d41cee95 modify the 176f48b2b4 magic circle fd07117486 again and adb1c48efa suggest that af24b3bb29 the mages dc36826ba1 conduct further d7686f403c experiments in 9189f70905 the future.2ba5563aa15bc7b9
