Transmigrated as a Ghost-718 Chapter 718

Suddenly hearing that Marcus knew Boreas, Alaric’s already overwhelmed mind seemed to completely shut down at this point.

Certainly, everything that he had heard so far was beyond anything he could imagine, but it was still so out there he could not really understand it all.

However, as a citizen of Borealia, he natural knew of its legendary first king who had ruled centuries ago.

Learning that Marcus not only knew such a figure, but that he was actually still alive after all this time was beyond astonishing.

‘Looks like that really did a number on him. Maybe I should have eased him into the fact that Boreas is alive and that we have met. Well, it is possible Alaric might meet him one day since he is currently in the castle. So, better now than then.’

Once Alaric began shaking his head and it was clear he had enough time to process what Marcus had just said. He figured it would be a good time to explain more about Boreas.

“So, the person you were talking about that could destroy the entire kingdom in a day is actually Boreas?!” Alaric said when Marcus had finished telling him about his meeting with the first king of Borealia.

“Yeah, he is. Of everyone I have met on this world, he is the strongest that is not a great spirit or the administrator.”

With a pensive expression, Alaric bent his back over and lowered his head.

It was clear he was now trying to work through everything Marcus had just revealed to him.

“How about we call it there for today. I have told you everything that is most pressing, and anything else can wait until you have gathered your thoughts. I know this is probably difficult to accept all of a sudden, so take your time. I would understand if afterwards you no longer want to associate with me.” ƒ𝚛𝐞𝚎𝑤𝘦𝚋𝓷o𝚟e𝘭.c𝐨𝙢

After saying this Marcus got up and prepared to leave but Alaric stopped him.

“Wait, Marcus. I want to hear everything.”

Turning back around and smiling, Marcus retook his seat and began relaying all the information that Alaric wanted to know.

For nearly the next twenty hours the two of them discussed numerous topics until Alaric could not keep himself awake any longer.

When the next day came, and Alaric woke back up there was a certain awkward atmosphere that had not been there before.

It was clear that Alaric was still mulling things over and was not totally sure on what to do.

“So, have you given it some thought? Do you want to follow along with us and go to the special dungeon to get stronger? Lilia is definitely coming. Therefore, if you do not want to, I can tell you now the power gap you have closed with grow far greater again. But if you are fine with that, I will not force you. Whatever relationship you want to have with my sister is up to the two of you.” Marcus said right before they were going to leave.

With his teeth grit and a downcast look, Alaric grappled with something in his mind for a few moments before looking up resolutely at Marcus.

“I already decided I want to be with Lilia and have the strength to stand beside her. Nothing else matters.”

Hearing this Marcus smiled widely and told Alaric that they needed to get going.

‘Whew. For a minute there I thought he was going to say he wanted to cut all ties with me.’

With the time to train Alaric over, the two of them got onto Blitz’s back and began heading towards the exit of the dungeon.

At the same time Marcus called back Roxene and Inten who he had let go wild in the dungeon while he was training Alaric.

When they met back up in the snowy hills area Marcus properly introduced his two other beast comparison to Alaric before they moved to exit the dungeon.

“Ah the fresh air and sunlight. It can be a bit unnerving to be in a dungeon so long, always a bit on edge.” Marcus said as they came back out onto the streets of Lethallan.

Alaric nodded his head and agreed with the sentiment, as he felt a certain weight off of him now that they were out of the dungeon.

“So where did you want to go first? Back to the inn, or straight to the adventurers guild to turn in the requests you took?” Marcus asked to Alaric.

“Let us go to the guild first. I want to see everyone else off and thank them for helping me train.”

Alaric having made his decision Marcus steered Blitz towards the guildhall.

Once inside he left Alaric to turn in his requests and headed right for Dahlia’s office to inform her that they were back and going to be leaving tomorrow.

“Oh Irene, you are back!” Jarek said when he got the door.

As soon as Marcus entered her heard a loud crash and looked on to see Jarek and Dahlia’s daughter throwing her food around again.

“Looks like you have your hands full right now. I will not take long. Just came to inform you both that Alaric and I have returned from the dungeon and will be leaving tomorrow”

Hearing this Jarek just stood their stunned for a moment, before saying, “Wait! You are leaving already.”

After that Jarek asked Marcus why they were going so soon and told him that he should stay longer so that they could have a farewell party.

“Sorry, I would love to, but we are on a bit of a time crunch. I stayed a whole half week longer than I scheduled for already. We have an important engagement we have to be back for in three days.” Marcus explained.

However, Jarek became more frantic at this, and asked how Marcus expected to make the journey from Lethallan back to the capital in such a short amount of time.

“Oh, no need to worry about that. My beast companion can fly so we will ride him all the way back pretty quickly.”

Understanding that Marcus was serious and planned on leaving tomorrow, Jarek at least asked him to wait for a bit while he gathered up some of the other adventures they were close to and could have at least a proper send off.

“That sounds good. Alaric is claiming his rewards for the requests he took and selling any other excess materials he picked up. I will go inform him while you gather everyone.”

Jarek with a panicked expression began running the trough the building in search of the other members of the Depth Delvers who had helped to train up Alaric.

During that time Marcus found Alaric stunning the guild staff as he unloaded numerous valuable materials from his magic bags. free𝚠𝚎𝚋𝒏𝚘ѵ𝐞l.𝑐oｍ

Once they he had wrapped that up, Marcus told him about the quick sendoff party that was being prepared and led him up to Dahlia’s office where it was going to be held.

When they arrived, in a miraculous turn of events it seemed that Jarek had gotten everything setup.

“Alaric, make sure not to drink anything alcoholic.” Marcus said as he eyed the Depths Delvers warily.

Swiftly everyone that had gathered started having a bit of fun playing some games, easting food, and drinking what Jarek had managed to pick up from eh bar on the first floor. And of course, Alaric only had fruit juice.

Eventually though, the merriment came to an end. With Marcus along with Alaric saying their farewells and heading back to the Towering Bear to get some rest during their last night in Lethallan.
