Chapter: 28
"Okay." Lumian acted very well-behaved.
He and Raymond bid farewell to Naroka and set off on the road to the village square.
"There's no hope, Lumian, there's no hope for this matter." After bypassing a building, Raymond said in frustration.
"Indeed, everything that should be burned has been burned, and what should have been taken away has been taken away for decades." Lumian nodded.
Because the dream had an opportunity, he was relatively not that disappointed.
Raymond agreed:
"Yeah, the only owl in the whole legend hasn't been destroyed."
"Owl..." Lumian's eyes lit up, and he turned his gaze to the forest outside the village.
Raymond shuddered, and quickly added:
"But after all these years, it must have died long ago."
He is terrified of touching owls, such evil creatures.
In southern Intis, owls, nightingales, and crows are all considered ominous, evil, and devil-serving creatures, often taking away human souls or bringing bad luck.
Lumian just had an inspiration suddenly, and he didn't really want to do it.
Leaving aside the fact that so many years have passed, the life of owls is much shorter than that of humans. The one that flew over when the wizard died should have rotted into mud. The number of owls in this mountain alone prevented Lumian from tracking them. desire to go down.
Too much!
The owl has no obvious characteristics... No, in the legend, the owl has no specific image, and Naroka didn't mention it just now... We still didn't ask carefully enough... Lumian came back to his senses, Smiled to Raymond:

"Don't worry, this is the last option, I don't want to face a monster.
"Let's ask other old people again, maybe there is a key clue that Naroka overlooked."
He then said in a bewitching tone:
"If I were a wizard, I would definitely not take all the treasures with me or put them at home. I would definitely hide some of them somewhere, lest I be suddenly attacked by the court and have nothing in time and must flee immediately. , the purse is empty."
One of the important responsibilities of the Inquisition of the "Eternal Sun" church is to eliminate all wizards and witches, and their "great achievements" are widely circulated in the countryside.
"Yes!" Raymond cheered again.
He said eagerly:
"It's a pity, too many years have passed, and the treasures collected by the church must have been spent long ago."
"Young man, your idea is very dangerous." Lumian joked.
The two continued to visit old Pierre, Naferria and other old people in Mori's house.
Although their answers were similar to those of Naroka, the experienced Lumian and Raymond still asked for more details.
For example, that owl is large and medium-sized, basically the same as its kind: pointed mouth, cat-like face, brown feathers, scattered fine spots, brown-yellow eye whites, black eyes...
