  Chapter 140 Asking the name of [Angel]

The master of the stripped city, Gervong Ashber En died suddenly, but the magician didn't know when he would die on the path of exploring the root cause, so it seemed that he had already made a will.

Gerü Weng has no sons.

He originally had a wife and children, but his wife and son seemed to have left him one after another because of an incurable disease, turning him into a lonely family.

In view of this, his inheritance can only be entrusted to the magicians invited by him to come to this stripped city.

However, of course Gerüweng will not evenly divide his inheritance and hand it over to everyone. His plan is to choose the most suitable one among the magicians who come here. Give your inheritance to the other party.

The method of selection is to conduct a special puzzle-solving ceremony.

The one who was invited to preside over this inheritance ceremony was a magician from the Clock Tower [Law Politics Section].

【Law and Politics Department】, it is also the most special department in the clock tower. It is not one of the twelve disciplines, but separate from the twelve disciplines, the thirteenth Subject.

The official name of [Law and Politics Section] is actually [First Principles Executive Board]. In other words, this is a department that strictly adheres to the principle of'mysterious should be hidden', and its inherent functions It is to "guard the existence of the magic world" and "supervise the existence of the magician".

This is not a place for studying magic, but a political department used to operate and manage the clock tower.

The magicians who come out of this department either participate in the execution forces that intervene in disputes between magicians, or through the power of the department, they serve as important government positions in countries that have close contacts with the clock tower.

Whether it is the internal disputes of the magician, the inheritance of inheritance, or the international politics and economy, as long as it is used as the title of "for the continuation of the magic world", [Law and Politics] can all be just and honorable. Participating in a kick, the power and strength of action make magicians who are detached from ordinary people fear it.

This time the inheritance ceremony of the stripped city will be presided over by the magician of the [Law and Politics Section].

The magicians of the [Law and Politics Section] are certainly terrifying, but as long as they are seriously considered by the magic world and have the right to inherit the inheritance, the [Law and Politics Section] will not secretly obstruct.

At this point, the [Law and Politics Section] is very authoritative and credible. If the magician of this department presides over the ceremony, then no one should worry that the inheritance ceremony will be unfair. Favoritism occurs.

…………

"This time the inheritance ceremony is to find our respective [Angels]."

Luvia cleans up one piece He took out his envelope and placed it in front of Lucia. From it, he took out a piece of white paper with the words'Michael' written on it, without a word apart from this.

At the same time, she also took out a gem from the table and placed it on the wound Lucia bit out on her neck. Under the weak magical rays of light, she healed her neck. Bite marks.

Lucia remembered that when he came to this room last night, the nameplate on the door seemed to have the words'Michael' written on it. In other words, it was actually Levy here. The room Ya was assigned to.

"——Ask about the name of an angel

If you do not answer a question, you will deprive the angel of it

If you find my angel, you can inherit Legacy——"

From Luvia's mouth, three words that seemed to have special magic power were murmured.

paused, she continued to explain to Lucia: "This is all the contents of the will announced by the magician Ryori Kasano from the [Legal and Political Department]."

Strip the Lord of the City The will left behind, published by the magician Ryori Kano, contains only these three lines in total.

The meaning of the words themselves is not difficult to understand.

The magicians who were invited here, it seems that everyone has been given their own [Angel]. For example, the angel Luvia was given should be'Michael', this [Angel] itself It should be a kind of clue to let the magicians look for the [Angel] of Gerüweng, and as long as they find it, they can inherit its legacy.

But what kind of clues [Angel] itself contains is unclear. Therefore, how to find Gerüwung's angel through his own angel is even more confusing.

And in the second sentence [If you do not answer a question, you will deprive the angel of it], what is the angel referring to? The word "Michael" is always impossible, right? Does it mean the right to inherit the inheritance?

Is it the angel who is deprived of himself when he encounters something and asks but does not answer?   The content of the whole will is quite obscure, full of mysteries in the style of a magician.

"How much can you understand on this will now?"

Lucia looked towards Luvia, and asked her like this.

"No, I don't understand anything yet."

Luvia shook the head, without a trace of concealing Lucia, "Actually, I just learned that there is not a will When I was young, it was too late to think about the meaning of the will."

Lucia nodded, he hid in the closet before, and heard the voice in the hall, knowing that the will had just been announced, and it was too late to think that the joints were normal.

But this way, it's a little troublesome.

Although Lucia knows some [common sense] in magic, she is seriously lacking in knowledge. It is simply unrealistic to solve the mystery of this legacy by herself-let him use the knife It is easier for those who threaten the inheritance to hand over the inheritance.

"...Master, it seems to be this room."

When Lucia and Luvia had no idea about the will, a girl suddenly came from outside the door. The voice of the other party seems to be talking to someone next to him.

"I see."

Then came another low but intellectual young male voice, which made people produce a kind of wisdom and wisdom like a university professor. impression.

Next moment, with a squeak, the door of Luvia's room was opened, and two silhouettes appeared at the door, one high and one low.

The taller man is a man with black waist and long hair. He is wearing a dark black slim suit. His height is not inferior to the youthful Lucia, and his hands are still Very particular about wearing a pair of black gloves.

Although his hair seems to be as long as a woman, he does not have the slightest tenderness. On the contrary, he often frowns, giving people a feeling of impatience, exuding a slightly strong aura.

It's just that there are a few untimely wrinkles between the brows on his face, as if he could not bear the tireless workers all the year round.

The other short figure is a girl with a hood that covers her face and makes her look unclear. She should be more than 1.5 meters tall, with a black coat on her upper body, and a black jacket on her lower body. It is a gray pleated skirt with a cloak with a hood on the outside, black stockings on the legs, and a pair of short black round-toed Little Pi shoes on the feet.

The whole person looks black and white, and only a pair of emerald green pupils can be seen from under the hood, giving the impression of a winter fairy.

"Ah..."

The girl with the hood covering her face opened the door and saw the figures of Lucia and Luvia inside, a subconsciously short burst Exclamation.

Even the tall young man beside her was stunned.

"Is there anything important to visit at this time?"

Luvia raised her eyes slightly, her eyes clearly locked on a long-haired young man , And said the title of the other party from the mouth.

"——Sovereign Elmero II."
