E N Chapter 33
: The fear of the Future
[N POV]
On the way to the Milshion, Claude filled his days with tinkering, the magic circle on the parchment.
In one of his memories, he knows about industrialization and is working on creating an enchantment about it.
It's definitely not an easy matter, and he can't create anything out of a simple drawing. Knowing Rudeus didn't have much information about magic circle enchantment, he didn't ask for Rudeus's help and allowed him to play around with Geese and Eris.
He had already planned everything from the start of his journey, and never expected anything about the distant future. Claude, threading his life step by step, wished for a safe life from here on.
He had already overcome his death flag in the Nightmare Dungeon; thus, he had already planned his happy life when he met with his subordinates and companion.
Even so, because of his fear of the Divine being, he takes a step back when it's time to have a conversation with Geese.
He feared the Human God, and he wanted to stay away from the being as much as possible. At the same time, he wanted to have a cooperative relationship with the Dragon God.
However, this is a mistake.
He should get closer to Geese, examine his relationship with the human god, and prepare for any possibilities.
In addition, there are several things that even Mike would not be able to understand since the future had a different path from what he knew.
The presence of his organization might be a turning point, but a butterfly should appear in the near future.
He already understands why the divine being was targeting Rudeus and trying to hurt Rudeus.
Even so, there's no guarantee that Claude's existence will be a detriment to the Human God.
So, what'd be his reason to fear the Human God?
It's still a mystery, even now, why he had an inclination to hate the divine being.
"Hey, Claude, what are you doing?" Eris suddenly appeared beside him and asked the question.
Claude didn't even blink at Eris's sudden appearance and answered her without stopping his drawing.
"I'm constructing a magic circle."
"What's for?"
"Enchantment"
"Huh, oh..." Eris said disinterestedly, and left him to train.
Not long after, Rudeus comes and watches him from his back.
"What is it, Rudy?"
"Nothing, just watching you scribbling on the parchment..."
"If you want to say something, just do it. I won't hide things from you."
Rudeus didn't answer, but went to his side and watched him draw a circle after another. Rudeus already becomes dizzy with all the details and, whatsoever, he compares what Claude did with his world's mathematical calculation.
Although there's a difference and he doubted that they would even know mathematics, he couldn't help but ask.
"Are you using some kind of formula to create this?"
"Of course, you think an enchantment is something that only uses intuition?"
"Can you give an explanation of how they work then?"
"Let's see, this part here is a magic circle to..."
It took him a long time to explain every piece of the magic circle he created to Rudeus. Each part had its own usage and function.
To understand it better, Rudeus compared it to the programming language that nerds use. Although he could grasp something within the enchantment, Rudeus couldn't help but shake his head as it got heavier with every explanation Claude described.
"Wow, to think you can think about something like this? Are you really sure you're not some old demon like Ruijerd? "
"That's rude. I'm your childhood friend and we grew up together, you know."
"But, your development is just too horrendous for me. I can only see you as a genius by now. "
"And what makes you think otherwise? For a saint class magician genius like you, wouldn't seeing someone genius or even better, something normal be enough? "
"Urh... ahaha, now that you mention it... "
Trying to hide the fact that he was a reincarnated old man, Rudeus took a step back and left the place.
Claude just shook his head, as he already knew what Rudeus was hiding. He didn't point it out because he too had a secret to protect, moreover, with Rudeus being eyed by the Human God. It's not good to tell the truth to him, since he doesn't know whether Rudeus will say that or not.
Anyway, Claude fears for the future.
He was exaggeratingly fearful of what would happen after he met with the other and confirmed the villagers' safety. As of now, he thought that everything was planned smoothly.
Although he failed to save Somar's parents, the number of deceased shouldn't be as exaggerated as in the other incarnation or even the original timeline.
Which is why he threads the path carefully.
Even so, he didn't do it secretly either. His vanity to flaunt sometimes took over and brought more harm to him at this point, but it'd taken a long time for him to realize this mistake.
Neither him nor his surroundings will like it when this shortcoming comes to light.
