Chapter 19: The Wise
“……!”
Konten was truly stupefied at Kerza’s comment.
“The Spire Lords?”
The Spire Lords were the leaders of Matab and one would think they were the lords of the Matab Spire, but it was just a title as Matab originally only had the Spire before more were built. The Spire Lords wouldn’t all gather except for situations which could change Matab’s future, because they actually resided in their own towers or they would be adventuring elsewhere.
As Matab’s representatives, which was acknowledged as the City of Magicians, the Spire Lords often had more than Kings of nearby Kingdoms. This was because they were considered the face of Magicians and every Magician strove to be as powerful as them. Those venerated Spire Lords were actually gathering?
“Just because of one man?”
It was hard enough to get a glimpse of just one of the lords. Did a man with immeasurable potential have such power? Konten couldn’t help but feel doubtful of Kerza’s words but didn’t voice them.
“For now…”
Konten was pulled out of his thoughts with Kerza’s words and listened carefully.
