Episode. 43 Laplace (1)
“Noisy… … !”
who dies who dies
It’s enough if you hold on until you do this.
I widened my eyes and looked at the ‘bad relationship’.
Meanwhile, the pain was getting worse and worse.
It’s to the point where you wonder what it would be like if a violent storm raged inside your body.
[…] … Junior warrior.]
At that time, a voice rang through the hilt of the sword of ‘Bad Yeon’ again.
It wasn’t the gruff and unpleasant voice of Calgos, it was an honest and firm voice.
It was Albert’s voice.
[For some reason, my old bad relationship doesn’t seem to want your death.]
[I can’t help but see your danger.]
[I’ll give you a little help.]
I hope you get through this difficulty-
As soon as the words were finished, the ‘bad relationship’ emitted light.
‘Albert. Why did this guy grow up living with Calgos? When I called, he didn’t even answer!’
I complained internally, but thanks to that, the inside started to stabilize little by little.
The light that flowed from the sword body suppressed the aura that stirred inside the body.
Thanks to that, I was able to hold the reins of the energy that was like a fool.
‘Anyway, things have become easier.’
The gap that Albert made, he operated his faith through the gap.
He suppressed the mana that surged like an exploded volcano and forced it to circulate along the mana route.
‘My mana route was created by Balak. There is no need to make a new road.’
Thicker than Orcs and stronger than Elves.
Balak’s mana route, which maximizes two of human strengths, elasticity and thickness, is perfect for a magic swordsman.
I turned my energy several times on that well-polished road.
The feeling of being able to breathe every time I go through one cycle.
When I opened my eyes again, a round ring was floating on the palm of my hand.
“… … her.”
Laughter came out.
Looking this way and that way, it was a clear circle.
A magician’s circle is not only a measure of that realm, but also a ‘power organ’ attached to the heart for manifesting magic.
But now this situation… …
It was easy to imagine, for example, that my right atrium was flapping in the palm of my hand.
‘The energy of the artificial heart settled all over the body. An artificial heart isn’t even a miracle drug. Hmm, is it because I already have a knight’s heart?’
While thinking, he rotated the circle on his palm once.
Then, divine power gathered through his palms, and soon he felt that even the mana around him was being drawn to the circle.
Jiying, Jiying-
The brightly shining ring, imbued with divine power, trembled naturally.
‘The caster’s mana and nature’s mana gather in the ring and resonate. It must be the heart of a wizard.’
At this point, he had to listen to the opinions of those who were well versed in magic.
First of all, one thing is certain, the path to becoming a magic swordsman has been opened for me.
But, unfortunately, my colleagues did not give me time to fully enjoy my joy.
“Saint! What happened?”
The guys who had been stomping their feet all the time came running in a hurry.
While exploring the ruins, I explained the plan in general, but for some reason, the eyes looking at me were full of resentment.
“Ah, don’t worry. Everything went according to my plan.”
“It goes according to plan! How many times have you vomited blood!”
“I didn’t tell you it would be this dangerous, you bastard!”
“ha! What the hell, this old man doesn’t have a comfortable day. Please stop worrying.”
After that, I had to listen to the words of resentment for an hour in silence.
‘Next time, if I think it’s going to be even a little bit dangerous, I’ll have to tell you.’
Of course, I could express my resentment.
I didn’t expect absorbing an artificial heart to be this dangerous.
But still, in my ears, the screams of Moritz and the Temple Knights, as I heard them being chewed by Calgos’s teeth, were vivid.
I didn’t want to worry them anymore.
◈ ◈ ◈
“Heung, heung heung, heuh uh-!”
On the way to leave the ruins, Adele hums a song.
“one! in the middle of the night! Let me tell you the good news!”
Even so, they hopped and hopped and sang hymns.
The others, including Richard, gazed at the green back of her head with delight.
“Hmmm… … Your mother must be very happy.”
“Yeah, that’s right. We couldn’t even talk properly last time.”
“It was very disappointing for us as well.”
“… … I’m sorry I didn’t pay attention to you back then, Tassar. I could have made time to talk to him at least a little.”
A strange light appeared in Tassar’s eyes.
Then, soon after, he smiled softly.
“Don’t talk like that. We elves are having the happiest days since we were born.”
The eyes of the elves chasing Adele were deeply wet.
The happiest days since I was born.
It wasn’t a lie.
Compared to the days when I held on to my dying mother and forcibly swallowed her tears, these days were truly embarrassing.
Even though the world encourages their karma and desire in another form, it was a great blessing for the elves to be able to be with the smiling Adele.
“Now, those happy days will be enjoyed by the elves in the south as well.”
“Yeah, right. I will make sure that the elves will never be persecuted in the future. Even in the name of this Moritz!”
Moritz, who suddenly joined the conversation, put his arm around Richard’s shoulder and said,
“Whoops… … thank you Human friends.”
The expressions on the faces of the companions as they walked were very light.
However, since their eyes and ears were wide open, they did not lose their discipline in the enemy camp of the Southern Continent.
Soon they reached the ‘meeting place’.
“Isn’t anyone there?”
Moritz frowned slightly and looked around.
All I could see was trees, and I didn’t feel a single human presence.
“Richard, did he really receive a revelation?”
“hmm… … did you get it? Let’s wait first.”
“Tsk. The saint of the south acts sluggishly even after receiving a revelation. I don’t like it either.”
Sitting with his back against a huge rock, Richard suppressed a chuckle.
It was funny that Moritz spoke as if he had waited a long time for a subject he had just arrived at.
‘I’ll be there in an hour.’
Having identified Alan’s location with his Shinan, he secretly looked at his colleagues.
I had to stay away for a while, so I thought I’d keep an eye on him for now.
◈ ◈ ◈
Beep-
A bird entwined in the blue wind chirped.
Circle 2 magic, ‘Crying Bird’.
It was just magic for the purpose of sending some kind of signal to allies, but if the caster was a genius of Marx, the story would be completely different.
It will become a very good mount that can generate instant mobility more than that of a wyvern.
“… … .”
Alan’s face was mercilessly frowned as he climbed on top of the ‘Crying Bird’.
From the time he escaped from the family head’s eyes four days ago, he hadn’t straightened even for a moment.
“Margarten.”
“what.”
“… … .”
“If you are called, please speak up, human.”
Marar, who held his back tightly, felt like crying.
Does it mean that there is no response after calling several times already?
If he had his original strength, he would have beaten Alan in the back of the head by now.
It was when Mar’s eyes closed in grief.
“why. always.”
Alan continued as if chewing and spitting out word by word.
“Are you accepting Hor’s revelation instead? I have something urgent to tell him… … !”
Hearing his voice heated with anger, Marr briefly recalled what happened in the past.
– Alan Marx. Hor gave a revelation.
– what… … ?
– He told me to face the saint of the north at the center of Kar Forest, where there is a huge rock.
– … … .
– You’ll have to leave right now to avoid prying eyes. Hurry up and pack your things.
okay.
Looking back, when this damn saint of the south looks like he’s chewed something, it’s always after Marga has delivered the revelation instead.
‘I couldn’t believe it… … Was it because he was heartbroken because he hadn’t received the revelation?’
In fact, it’s not even a revelation.
It was just that Richard informed Marr of his will through Adele.
Marr just packaged it up nicely in the name of revelation and delivered it to Alan.
“… … crazy guy Even if he’s crazy, he’s still crazy.”
Beep-
A songbird chirped at the right time.
“what? What did you say?”
“No, it is. ah! over there Descend!”
In the middle of the forest far away, a flat rock caught my eye.
Humans huddled on the rock.
It was difficult to see due to the distance, but the saint of the north and his companions were clear.
◈ ◈ ◈
A bird made of magic landed on the rock exactly.
softly-
Between the streams of mana that flew fiercely into the air, Alan stood on the rock and looked down at Richard.
Richard was also staring at him.
“The Saint of the North.”
The voice that came out of Alan’s mouth could not be described as friendly even in empty words.
All of a sudden, the knights who blocked Richard’s way raised their blades.
A silence enveloped the hall, as if a fierce battle would break out at any moment.
Alan broke the silence.
“Did you also receive the revelation of Hor from the World Tree? Or, did you receive orders directly from Hor?”
Richard’s calm eyes glanced at Marr.
Behind Alan, a boy with green hair shook his head.
‘Oh, my God.’
From noble mtl dot com
Richard, who grasped the situation in that brief moment, raised the corners of his mouth.
“I begged Hor to hug me gently and earnestly.”
“what… … ?”
“hmm. Let’s stop talking about this for now. It’s not important.”
Ignoring Alan, who was frozen white, he pushed the backs of the elves and Adele.
It meant to hurry up and solve Marwa Hoepo.
“No, Maru-!”
“Adele… … ! Children of the North!”
A boy and a girl who looked good in green hugged each other.
The elves, who had been hesitant at a distance, could be seen approaching Marr’s beckoning gestures.
“Ah. Leave those guys alone for a while.”
Richard, who climbed the rock with a single leap, met Alan’s gaze.
“Your father became a heretic.”
“… … .”
Alan’s dazed eyes returned to focus.
However, there was no doubt that the slightly shaking eyes were reminiscent of Bapel, who had become a heretic.
“I am… … I am the Heretic Judge. Even if heresy is my father, the name Judge will never fade.”
“okay. You are the saint of the south and at the same time the heretic judge. But wouldn’t Hor have urged unconditional burning at the stake?”
『You will have to show the right path to those who serve the wrong thing.』
Richard did not want to give Alan false hope.
He also came to the Southern Continent with the idea of killing Bapel Marx.
but.
Therefore, one cannot turn a blind eye to hope itself.
“Your sister, the ruler of Laplace Kingdom.”
chin.
Richard put his hand on Alan’s shoulder and his eyes lit up.
“We bring Alisa Marx to our side. If her forces stop Marx, war between the North and South Continents will not break out right away.”
Most importantly, it was to buy time.
When Marx pulls the trigger of the war, it is out of control from then on.
But Alan was skeptical of that opinion.
Alisa Marx.
Alan knew the character of Marx’s eldest daughter, Alyssa, best.
It was natural.
Alan’s magic teacher was Alyssa.
“He is a man who acts according to his convictions. If even I don’t know what he wants, how can someone like you, who doesn’t even know what he wants, embrace him?”
“I know. She does not know true peace, but she loves peace.”
Richard slowly raised his hand.
A ring that emits brilliance floated in his hand.
“I will learn magic from her. Everything you didn’t learn, even ‘Laplace’.”
“… … !”
Seeing the circle, Alan’s mouth slowly opened.
A shock that cannot be hidden.
“Instead, I asked the ruler of Laplace what peace was, and whether the current two great family systems were true peace. It will tell you clearly.”
Gying, Gying-!
Circle greedily inflated its body.
It was a skill that would never be possible with a normal magician’s ring.
