Tales Of New World: The Magus 34 Resolution

Romain and Volya are venturing through the forest after Volya told Romain that he knows the location of the mage. And it's been ten minutes since they left the group of the knight. Romain walks in front of Volya and then says,

"Volya... Are you sure about the mage?"

"Yes..." answer Volya as he panting

Romain peeks behind him and could see that Volya is tired. Before Romain could say anything, he could hear that Volya falls to the ground. He immediately looks behind and runs towards Volya. Romain immediately says,

"Are you sure that you want to continue it? I think you should take some rest."

"No... I can't..."

"Why?"

"If... If I didn't do it now... More people will..."

Romain looks again at Volya and then notices that Volya is hiding something. He walks to Volya, pushes him to the tree so he is sitting, and then says,

"What is it, Volya? I could read it from your face."

"Huh?"

"What is it?"

Volya looks down and then hears that Romain takes out his helmet. Romain then says,

"If you didn't open up now, it will end horribly for us."

"..."

"And when I see your face right now, it reminds me of me when we are taking the mission that almost killed Helena."

Romain then walks to Volya and says,

"Before we fight that troll, I notice the sign of the troll there. But, I'm not quite sure whether that is a troll's mark or another animal. And because you seem relaxed, I think it should be fine."

"..."

"But when we meet the troll, some part of me starts to blame myself and because of that I am hesitant for what my next step is, Helena and Ludmila injured too much."

Volya keep silent about that, and Romain continues,

"If possible I want to make sure that you will not hesitate about this mission. I don't want us to become another victim because someone is hiding something."

Volya starts to look down and Romain is disappointed with Volya's action. He then puts on his helmet, starts to walk away from Volya and waits for Volya to take some rest.

Around five minutes later, Volya suddenly says,

"I think... I know who is the mage that is causing this problem..."

"Huh?" says Romain as he quite surprised that Volya suddenly says something

"From the mana that I gather, I know who the one that owns this mana and magic."

"If you know... Who is it?"

"At first I didn't want to believe it... I want to deny the truth..."

Romain looks at Volya for a moment and starts to walk to Volya. Volya continues,

"I... don't want to..."

"Volya..." says Romain suddenly

"Huh..."

"Who is it? Maybe I could help you..."

"..."

"And maybe we could prepare a plan for it... Who is it?"

Volya looks at Romain and then says,

"Do you remember the girl that I am searching for?"

"Ah... yes, I remember that... Wait... Don't' say that"

Volya takes a deep breath and then continues,

"The mage that causes this havoc is her... The one that causes the problem in this world is her, Gracia Ravelli. The girl that I am searching for until now."

Romain keep silent about it and then Volya continues,

"I want to save her... But, I know that everyone in this part of the kingdom and guild wants her head..."

"That's right. Everyone in the kingdom and guild will try to kill him."

"That's why... Until now, I am trying to find a way to save her..." continues Volya as he looks at Romain

"But, I believe you still don't know what you should do..."

"Yes..." answered Volya as he looked away from Romain.

Romain then closes his eyes, thinks for a while, and says,

"I think... I will help you."

"Huh?"

"I will use my connection to help you. I believe I could make Sir Albert on our side... But, I doubt about our King and Sir Villias."

"Wait... No... I don't want your family to be involved in this mess..." says Volya after he heard what Romain says.

"I don't care... I will help either way. And believe me... Now my chance to help you after you help me so many times."

Romain reaches out his hand to Volya. Volya surprised to hear what Romain just said, chuckles, and says,

"You are an idiot..."

Volya then accept Romain's hand and then says,

"Alright... Don't blame me if your family disowns you, Romain."

"Well, at least I have a house to stay and rebuild my honour from scratch... Ahahahahaha."

"Really... You are an idiot..."

"Well... WE are a bunch of idiots!" answer Romain

Both of them laugh together with Volya standing up. He then says,

"Alright... Let's meet with her... And I believe she already notices us."

"Hee... Are you sure about that? Are you ready to fight her?"

"Yes, I am. As long as you support me... I believe I could survive from this ordeal"

"Is that so? Good to hear that!" shouts Romain

As soon Romain shouts that the two of them looks at the forest and shouts together,

"Let's do this!"

Volya's doubt still lingers in his head, but at least now he knows that Romain will help him no matter what. And he from this conversation and his experience, he knows that Romain always keeps his word no matter what and a trustworthy person.

While Romain now understands that Volya's mentality isn't as strong as he believes. His mind is as fragile as a crystal ball. But, at the same time, he knows that Volya is also a strong person that could rally and entice the people around him with his kindness and stubbornness. And that moment, he feels like he knows someone at the kingdom with that trait. As he tried to remember who the person is, Volya already prepares his staff and shouts,

"Looks like we have a lot of guests... Are you ready, Romain?"

"What a rude guest... And of course, I am ready!" Romain shouts back at Volya and prepares his s.h.i.+eld and sword.

With that, they continue their mission to find The Smiling Angel of Death.
