Chapter 51: 51-Episode 50

We walked through the city until we came to an area lined with the residences of the upper class.

Irene pointed to a mansion a little further on.

'Hey Will, isn't that the mansion of Count Goldart?

The mansion was indeed larger than the surrounding houses, and had a magnificent gate.

It was in a small city, so it wasn't huge, but it was clearly several times larger than the average person's residence.

'Oh, it's probably that one. I'm going to go now, so Irene and the others can wait here.

'What, wait for me at ......? Don't you want me to go?

'Of course, Irene's presence is necessary when we go in, but we need to scout first.

I told Eileen as well as the other three accompanying her to stand by, and cast an insensible spell myself.

Then, under the effect of the spell, I walked to the vicinity of the house I wanted to visit.

As he had told Irene, the first thing he would do was to scout.

Count Goldert and Alice must not be aware of our presence yet.

Once we make a direct approach to them, they will be aware of our presence and take precautions and countermeasures, but for now, we are outside of their awareness, so we are on our own now.

Now, as we neared the residence of what appeared to be Count Goldart, we could see two strong-looking gatekeepers standing in front of the gate, wearing chain mail and holding spears in their hands.

The gatekeepers did not seem to pay any particular attention to my presence as I approached the house.

I'm under the effect of an insensible spell, so I'd be in trouble if I wasn't.

The entire property was surrounded by a stone wall nearly three meters high, indicating a rigorous defensive posture.

I don't know if Mee can somehow climb that stone wall, but it's impossible for me to climb it, and even if I jumped and reached for it with all my might, I wouldn't be able to reach the top of the wall.

Now, I'm going to cast a spell here.

It's a spell called "Sense Magic".

Then, under the effect of the spell, I look over the stone wall of the mansion, into the space within the grounds.

'...... Are you still on alert? Even though it's peacetime, you're being cautious.

The red hemispherical membrane of magical power was seen to cover a large area, though not the entire grounds of the house.

The spell I used, Sense Magic, is a spell that allows you to 'see' the magical power at work within your field of vision.

The magic power will appear as a translucent red glow in the magician's vision.

The hemispherical magical power that I see now is probably the magical power of the alert spell cast by Alice, the court magician in the mansion.

It may be that Alice is constantly using the spell of alert while she is in the mansion, and detects intruders in the mansion.

However, the Alert spell is supposed to react to anyone who enters or leaves the mansion, including servants.

It would make daily life too noisy, but still, it is a very cautious thing to do.

However, there is one thing that has been confirmed by this.

Alice is currently in the house.

The sensing membrane of the Alert spell forms a sphere around the user.

It is possible to use the spell with a narrower radius of effect, and it is believed that Alice is currently using it in that state, but the point that it forms a sphere around the sorcerer cannot be moved.

You can't move the point of the spherical formation at the center of the sorcerer, so the fact that there is a light of alert magic there means that the sorcerer is currently in the house.

That's exactly the information I wanted to know.

That's what I wanted to know, whether Alice is currently in the house or not.

Now, we have the minimum information we need to acquire.

I could leave now, but since it's such a good opportunity, I'll go see the court magician in question.

It's also possible that Count Goldart has hired another sorcerer besides Alice, and that person is using the alert.

It's better to be visible.

I cast a see-through spell and proceeded to check the internal structure of Count Goldart's mansion.

And then...

'So... that's Alice Flamelia.

She found the person she was looking for.

She was in a room on the third floor of the mansion, writing something.

She matches the description I got from the professor at the academy, so I'm pretty sure she's Alice.

She is a beautiful woman of about 20 years old, with long, wavy red hair.

She has a good figure even from a distance, and the sorcerer's robe she is wearing has been designed with a lot of modifications, such as making her body lines more visible and a bold slit from the waist.

Of course, she did not seem to notice my presence.

I then used the power of see-through vision to check the internal structure of the Count's mansion and the other members of the team, and after completing my reconnaissance, I returned to Irene and the others.

'Welcome back, Will! How was it, did you find out anything?'

'Yeah. We got most of the information we needed.

As Irene and the others greeted me at the side of the road, I led them in a direction that would take them out of the upscale neighborhood.

Irene follows beside me and asks me a question.

'Hey, are you leaving after all ......? Hey, Will, why aren't you going today?

'I'll tell you later. Let's just get a place to stay for now.

I walked down the darkened street with my client and his friends to find a place to stay for the day.
