Bab 277: Plot
It wasn't long after Daedalus slew the chimera that the carriage began to move again. To Daedalus slight suprise neither the driver or whoever was being escorted said anything about one of the pegasi dying or being slowed down. It was as though they expected it to happen.
Not minding it to much Daedalus could only think about the chimera itself. It was probably only that weak because it was in constant pain, Daedalus could tell because it was constantly screaming and when he looked into its eyes as it died he could see a faint glimmer of thankfulness.
Daedalus didn't dwell on those thoughts however and decided that it would probably be best if he asked more about the situation. So turning to the driver Daedalus said "What have you not told me, that chimera, it was wrong. Only someone strong would have the skill required to make something like that. We both know this isn't as simple as a B rank quest."
The driver sighed and continued looking forward before saying "I knew you would ask. You could probably tell what noble family I am serving, however we are from what many call the honourable faction. We need to reach the empress and tell her about what the other faction have discovered and what they are planning."
Hearing what the elf said Daedalus put a hand on his chin and thought, the elf was very trusting of him which confused Daedalus. Before Daedalus could ask why, the elf spoke saying "You defended us so easily, the chimera was at least comparable to an A rank adventurer. So I took a chance as I think you are hiding your identity for a reason."
Daedalus nodded and decided to trust the elf for now, it's not like the elf was stronger than him. So Daedalus unhinged his mask and placed it in a chest compartment of the armour before saying "You happen to be in luck, I am the nephew of the empress, Daedalus."
The driver looked shocked but a young voice spoke from within the carriage saying "Would you like to sit and talk with me for a while?"
Daedalus nodded to the driver and went inside the carriage. He had used wind to form footholds so that he could get in without an issue.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
As Daedalus entered the carriage he was surprised to see that it was a teenaged wood elf. The young wood elf introduced themself as Hasien Torothine the youngest son of he previous patriarch. Daedalus also introduced himself and added "So tell me, what had the other faction discovered and what are they planning?"
Hasien immediately started talking "They have discovered a journal of sorts, I don't know the exact details but chimera are a small part of the knowledge that it carries. What they plan is to use the knowledge within the journal in order to create unspeakable things and use them to kill the empress and take over the empire."
As Hasien spoke Daedalus face became more and more serious until Hasien finished speaking. Daedalus then said "I will hurry us along, we can't give them even a moment longer to work on their plans."
