Looking Forward to Another World

"event?"

Everyone was immediately stunned.

Seeing this, Andy on the side intervened.

"Is it a disappearance incident?" Andy said: "It is said that many people in the army trained by the Maples family suddenly disappeared for no reason. Grandpa was invited here because of this incident."

As soon as these words came out, Fanny suddenly trembled, and her little face instantly turned pale.

"There are mysterious disappearances among the troops trained by the Maples family?"

Geer's expression also changed suddenly, obviously like Fanny, he thought of something.

"Could it be..."

Liz covered her mouth.

Li Ge's eyes also became deeper and he fell into silence.

"W-what's wrong with you?"

The strange reaction of Li Ge and his entourage made Andy, who had just casually interjected, bewildered.

"Your Excellency Brighaut?"

Nibald also looked at Rige in surprise.

"...It's okay." Li Ge did not explain immediately, but glanced at Fanny, who was pale, and then asked Nibald: "Can you please tell us about this disappearance?" Incident?"

Hearing this, Nibald looked at Lige intently for a while, then nodded and explained.

It turns out that this was something that had already appeared a long time ago.

According to Nibold, many years ago, disappearances occurred from time to time in the Mapros Territory.

The first people who disappeared were some civilians who often went out on business. Some of them were hunters, and some were farmers working outside. They went out one day and never came back, and there was no news from them since.

Then came some caravans who suddenly disappeared while on their way to trade. No one among the dozens of people in the entire caravan was spared, and no one could find them again.

Originally, these disappearances did not attract the attention of the local nobles, and even the Mapros family did not pay much attention to this matter.

Because this is the Mapros Territory, the most chaotic area in the Kingdom of Jinas, where thieves are rampant and there are many monsters. It is normal for someone to encounter accidents when they go out.

But after that, these disappearances intensified, and their scale grew larger and larger, until large caravans with hundreds of people dispatched together, and even large-scale knights who were escorting some noble children passing through, mysteriously disappeared one after another. The nobles headed by the Maples family finally realized the seriousness of the matter and began to investigate.

However, not only did their investigation end in vain, they even failed to control the situation, allowing the disappearances to continue to intensify and expand, and eventually spread to the troops trained by the Mapros family.

This is just poking a hornet's nest.

You must know that the army trained by the Mapros family is a valuable source of troops recruited from all over the kingdom every three years, and it even includes the descendants of the major noble families.

As these people disappeared one after another, the major noble families who noticed the abnormality began to ask for people from the Maples family, so that the Maples family gradually came under tremendous pressure.

Even if the Mapros family is a Marquis family, and the current head is the Sword Master of Zhenguan, sooner or later he will be unable to handle such a big matter.

As a result, the investigation into the incident reached a dead end, and the Maples family, which had not made any progress at all, began to seek foreign help.

"They suspect that there is an unknown magical phenomenon involved in this mysterious disappearance, otherwise they, as lords, would not be able to find any clues." Nibald said: "And I still have a bit of a reputation in the magic world. , and has some friendship with Lord Maples, so some time ago, Lord Maples personally wrote me a letter, inviting me to come over and help with the investigation."

This is the reason why Nibald came to Mapros Territory and prepared to go to Mapros' house.

"Finn..."

After hearing Nibald's explanation, Fanny's delicate body began to tremble and she shed tears.

"Miss!"

Geer was shocked and quickly supported Fanny.

"What happened to her?"

Andy couldn't help but asked.

The person who answered this question was not Fanny, Geer, or Li Ge, but Liz.

"Miss Fannie's brother was sent to the Mapros family for training, and he suddenly lost contact with him three months ago."

Liz explained in a low voice, making Andy shut her mouth.

"As expected." Nibold seemed to have already guessed. After hearing Liz's explanation, he immediately comforted him and said: "Miss Alisier, don't be too sad, although there are indeed many strange things about this disappearance. place, but so far there has been no news of missing persons being injured. Your brother may be fine."

"Really?" Fanny said with tears in her eyes, "Then where is Finn now?"

"This..." Nibald smiled bitterly, unable to speak.

He hasn't even arrived at the Maples house yet and started investigating. How can he tell Fanny the answer?

Fanny seemed to realize that she had asked a stupid question and stopped talking, but her tears could not stop flowing.

"Isn't there anyone who informed us about this matter and asked the royal capital to send someone over to investigate?"

Li Ge frowned and asked.

"Why not?" Nibald said: "I heard that the king had sent several court magicians to investigate, and also sent a detachment from the Kingdom Knights to assist, but nothing was found."

It's no wonder that the sword master of the Mapros family turned to Nibald for help.

Seeing that Lige was lost in thought again, Nibald spoke again.

"My grandfather and grandson left the city this time to go to the Mapoulos' house in Besare to start investigating the matter. Unexpectedly, we met Mr. Brighaut here."

Hearing these words, before Li Ge could react, Fanny leaned forward first.

"Please, please let me go with you!"

It was rare for Fanny to make such a request loudly.

"Please don't be impulsive, Miss." Geer quickly pressed Fanny's shoulders and said, "We just contacted the master. The master said that we should wait for him here in Kaludi, and he will send someone over immediately. Pick us up, we haven't entered the city yet, how can we ignore the master's instructions and run to Besare?"

Hearing this, Fanny did not speak, but looked at Nibald with stubborn eyes full of tears, silently expressing her will.

This actually made Nibald feel embarrassed.

Although Fanny cannot be regarded as an irrelevant person, as a young lady, even if she follows, what can she do?

And since his father said so, Nibald naturally didn't want to agree to Fanny and take her to Besare.

Moreover, there are still many strange things in this matter. I don’t know if there are any risks. Nibold dare not bring a little girl there who has no power to restrain a chicken.

Therefore, Nibald was prepared to refuse.

But at this time, Andy grabbed Nibald's clothes.

"My younger brother may have been involved in this incident. Grandpa, just agree to it."

Andy actually said such words.

"Nonsense." Nibald frowned and said, "This is an incident that even the royal family and the Maples family have not investigated and found out any clues about. There may be unimaginable dangers hidden in it. How can you just do it casually for this reason?" Bring people there?"

"What about me?" Andy said angrily: "Why did you think of taking me with you?"

"Can this be the same?" Nibald laughed angrily and said, "You are already seventeen years old this year, and soon you will have to embark on the path of studying magic alone. I am here to take you to gain experience and teach you by the way. The one who ordered you something was not the one who brought you here to visit.”

Andy wanted to refute, but was interrupted by Li Ge.

no way.

When Li Ge was deep in thought, the little princess on the side also tugged at the corner of his clothes, allowing him to instantly understand what the girl was thinking.

Obviously, the little princess also felt a little compassion.

This made Li Ge feel dumbfounded when he came back to his senses.

He felt that what Nibald said made sense.

If it were him, he wouldn't want to take a helpless 12-year-old girl to a place where unimaginable dangers may occur.

Liz and Andy's ideas are actually very willful. They want to satisfy each other's requests because they feel sorry for them. This is actually very baffling in Rige's opinion.

Li Ge, who was thinking this way, couldn't help but feel a little soft in his heart when he saw Liz looking at him eagerly.

"That's all."

Li Ge turned to Nibod and said this before Andy could.

"Actually, it is not without benefit to let Miss Fanny go with us." Li Ge said: "If her brother is really involved in this mysterious disappearance, maybe her sister can see it if she goes to the scene. Can you come up with some clues that no one else has discovered?"

This sentence made Nibod stunned.

Li Ge continued.

"Besides, she already knows everything now. Even if we don't take her with us, I don't think she will stay in Karudi and wait for her father to pick her up." Li Ge said with a half-smile. He said: "After all, this eldest lady dared to sneak out of the house with an entourage because her younger brother had not contacted her, and was almost kidnapped by a group of thieves and played around with?"

Li Ge's words made the stubborn-looking Fanny turn pale again, and she lowered her head in shame.

There is no doubt that Li Ge was blaming Fanny in a roundabout way, accusing her of being reckless and accusing her of not knowing what danger is.

Liz and Andy were both stunned, looked at each other, and stopped talking.

Perhaps, they started to think about it, and spoke for Fanny. Is this the right thing to do?

"Your Excellency, what do you mean...?"

Nibald looked at Rige thoughtfully.

"I mean, for the time being, it doesn't hurt to take her over for a look." Li Ge smiled slightly and said, "If she really can't help, just let her leave."

Anyway, with [Portal], the highest-level teleportation magic, Li Ge can throw this young lady back to Karudi at any time.

in addition………

"We will also go together."

In Nibald's surprised eyes, Li Ge said this.

"Anyway, Besare is also in our destination."
