Chapter 161
In the secluded fields of the citadel, Ecok looked around to see if anyone was nearby. It was class time, so the professors likely wouldn’t be coming around here.
“Finally…”
Ecok placed the sack on the ground and carefully took out a small item. It was a palm-sized door. According to Rimaal, this was supposed to be the door to the Spirit Realm.
– Long ago, spirits could descend to the human world freely, without needing a contract with a mage. They used a certain type of door.
– Isn’t that just some ancient superstition?
There were stories passed down from ancestors that every household once had a door through which spirits would visit, and people prayed for prosperity through it. However, in recent times, even kids didn’t believe in such absurd tales.
– It’s true, Ecok. That door used to be a common item. Maybe for nostalgia’s sake, those who had it would pass it down to their descendants, even if just as a decoration.
Though Rimaal was close to him in age, Ecok hadn’t fully believed his words. But he’d held his tongue, recalling everything he had accomplished thanks to this man.
– So, there’s one here as well.
