The Executed Sage Reincarnates as a Lich and Begins a War of Aggression

Chapter 245: The Sage Finds a Breakthrough

Although it sounds ridiculous I think its really true.

I glanced at Henry.

He casually munched on roasted meat.

Then, he slurped at his liquor to wash it down to his throat.

There was no sign of him stopping during our conversation.

If he werent already talking with me, he would likely go and pick up another serving of meat from the iron plate.

The contents of Henrys conversation was a bit vague, but I could roughly understand what he meant.

He was an anomalous existence after all.

He managed to instinctively perceive the Virtual Savior, that even I was unable to detect, and managed to repel it away.

Henry had no talent for magic.

I think he was able to detect it using his innate intuition.

He managed to resist an existence that was supposedly unperceivable and suppressed the casualties of the Demon Lords Army to a minimum. There could be nothing but praise for his achievements.

Even though he managed to accomplish such a feat, the person in question seemed to feel regretful.

Even so, its a shame I missed the assailant. Perhaps if it were the Commanders magic instead, you might have been able to finish it.

It would have been hard even with my power. Dont worry about it.

I didnt say that to comfort him.

It was a genuine fact.

No matter how strong my power was, it wouldnt be effective against the Virtual Savior.

It was doubtful I could even repel it like Henry did.

I would like to tell him the discovery from my conversation with the Great Spirit, but we were in public at the moment.

Given the danger of getting eavesdropped by a third party, it wasnt something that ought to be talked about outdoors.

I whispered to Henry.

Regarding the truth of this phenomenon, well talk more about it later.

Aah, Im looking forward to it.

Henry deepened his smile as he understood my intentions.

Although his free speech tone and actions stood out, he was someone who could read the room well.

Otherwise, there was no way he could be a warrior who led a large army.

Although he would sometimes choose to ignore the atmosphere instead, he was good at grasping and manipulating the whole flow as far as the battlefield was concerned.

Please return the Demon Lords Army to the base as it is. You dont have to hurry.

Roger. Ill contact you as soon as its done.

Okay.

After conveying the instructions, I returned to the audience hall with a transfer.

While checking on the newly piled documents, I immediately contacted Luciana with telepathy.

Can I have a moment?

Okay, what is it?

I want to hold a meeting tonight. Do you have time?

When I asked, there was a pondering hum on the other side.

Perhaps she was mentally adjusting her schedule.

Shortly after, Luciana replied.

Alright. Ill do my best to free up some time.

Aah, please do.

I ended the telepathy there.

Luciana agreed to attend the meeting without asking about the specific agenda.

Perhaps she understood how serious the matter was from my tone.

I was grateful that it saved me the extra effort.

Ill have to contact the other executives later.

We would gather together to discuss and report.

It was a crucial decision that would influence the situation of the Demon Lords Army nay, the whole world.

I couldnt decide on my own.

There was a high yield from the investigations this time.

I managed to understand the characteristics of the Virtual Savior, as vague as it might be.

I hadnt found anything until now, but I was finally able to get an outline.

It was thanks to Henrys success.

The expected solution for the problem would probably be effective as well.

It was not a mere solution either.

It seemed the current worries could be resolved at once.

All that remained was to make appropriate preparations and execute them.

There were still uncertainties, but that wasnt enough to stop me from moving forward.

It was time to strengthen my resolve.
