I will Save this Doomed Plot

Chapter 85: Forest(2)

Nash connected his mana and called Tina. After a few beeps, Tina finally picked up.

•Long time no see, boy.

"Hello, Miss Tina."

•Do you need anything? Why are you suddenly calling me?"

Luke smiled and took out the paper he had received from Elton and faced it towards the screen. He then began to explain it.

"I want you to please verify if this meeting is actually legit and not a trap. Also, please check if all the nobles enlisted here are in there while you are at it."

•Ho.... Moonlight Pub, huh? Interesting. Okay, then, we'll also investigate that.

Luke smiled and slipped the paper into the pocket of his coat.

"Thank you very much."

•Don't mention it. I'll now hang up. I can't stay connected like this any longer.

"Okay, please take care."

Tina nodded and hung up. Luke sighed and ate a cookie from the tray next to him. He then asked Nash, who was stuffing his cheeks with cookies.

"Did you have a strange feeling about Elton earlier?"

"Hmm? Strange?"

Luke nodded.

"Yes, is he a mage? If so, what grade?"

Nash was silent for a while before answering in a serious voice.

"He's not a mage, Dad."

Luke looked at Nash's serious face. Nash continued.

"He.... That guy.... He is not human."

Luke blinked for a few seconds before asking with a frown.

"What? Why didn't you tell me?"

"I was about to tell you, but I forgot when I saw grandpa being bothered about something, so I asked him what was wrong and forgot about it."

Luke just sighed. If he didn't ask Nash, he wouldn't know what Elton was really like. Luke then asked.

"Not human, huh? Do you have any idea on what he is?"

Nash shakes his head.

"No, his aura is so different from anything I've met before. He is weird. Dad! Make sure to not get too close to him! I can sense him being dangerous! He is also strong!"

Luke's face turned serious. For a legendary beast to say that Elton was strong, just how strong was he? And.... How much does he know?

Luke sighed and decided to not think much about it and eat his cookie.

Two weeks have passed and Luke is now standing in front of the tall stone wall that separates the Forest of Death from the others. With him are Erdene, Ava, and Liam. They are both gazing up at the tall wall in front of them. They could hear the roars of the monsters clearly on the other side of the wall. Erdene sighed.

"Haa, I need to do the cleaning again..."

Luke ignored Erdene's mumblings and jumped up to the top of the wall with the assistance of [Wind]. Erdene, Liam, and Ava, who was floating with flight magic thanks to Nash, followed behind Luke. They then saw a completely dark and foggy forest. Then Luke spoke up.

"Welcome to your new home."

"You brat, does this seem like a home to you?"

"Yeah, I mean, if you do a little cleaning here and there, it'll look just like your former mystical forest."
