It’s more like a ghost story than a legend. I remember hearing ladies-in-waiting who liked such stories. And a similar ghost story exists in the academy as well.
“The first is that there is a dungeon in the basement of the palace. It is said that the body of the dragon caught by the founding king remains there.”
does not exist. There is a secret passage underground. And I’ve gone down quite a bit underground, but there’s absolutely nothing.
“The second is that there is a soul wandering around the palace…”
It looks strange when you talk. Of course I am
“Not that…soul. It seems that the soul of a person who died unjustly in the royal palace clings to a painting or musical instrument, plays the instrument, or causes the painting’s eyes to blink. So at that time, if you guess the identity of your life, it will tell you where the royal family’s missing treasure is.”
does not exist. maybe there wasn’t But not now. Because I absorbed all the evil spirits and floating spirits that inhabited the palace. And no hidden treasures from the royal family. Honestly, this may not be what I’ve been looking for, but at least as far as I know there isn’t.
“And the third. There is a hidden book in the royal palace library, and it contains the mana theory to become a great wizard.”
The collection of books in the royal library is enormous. I don’t know about this part because I can’t take them all out. By the way, is there such a thing as a mana theory that can make you an archmage? Of course, even something like the Manasimbeop that Fortega created would have a considerable effect if a talented person continued to practice.
[First of all, there is definitely no first and second. And the third one is that I haven’t read all the books in the library, so I can’t say for sure, but I think it’s probably not.]
“yes? No?”
[No. I went into the basement more than twice the height of this palace, but there was nothing. There are no wandering souls because I chased them all away.]
He said he pursued it because it was a bit strange to say he absorbed it.
“okay.”
Isabelle had a very disappointed look on her face.
“What did the spirit say?”
The queen next to me asked Isabel, and Isabelle gave me my answer. The queen put on an expression that the world had collapsed. She is still at the age of a girl with a lot of dreams.
I think I need to tell the disappointed Isabelle and the queen something else.
[There are a few other things instead, would you like to try them?]
Isabella’s eyes widened.
“Let’s go! let me go! The queen said that the spirit guides her to another legend!”
“oh!”
Looking at the queen, who opened her eyes wide and exclaimed, she wondered if it would be rather disappointing if she made a mistake.
[No, it’s not even a legend]
“Mom, I want to go too!”
“Yes, let’s go on an adventure like Ether.”
Suddenly things got really big. It is a party with the queen, the bean and the prince. There were more than 10 escort knights following Bonnie, and an organization of more than 20 people including the attendants was created.
From noble mtl dot com.
[No, it’s not that dangerous, but]
If it seemed dangerous in the first place, I wouldn’t have taken her. Anyway, the place I was going to guide was the secret passage in the basement of the palace. The existence of a secret passage was known to all high-ranking officials in the palace. However, going in there is a different story. The queen, Aether, and Isabelle didn’t matter, but the attendants were a problem. So it was reduced and reduced to three escort knights and one attendant. However, one person was added later.
“Please take good care of me. Guardian Spirit”
The King followed. In this way, it turned into something like a royal family picnic. I wondered what this was all about, but when I saw Ether’s very happy face, I thought it didn’t matter.
[It’s not great, so tell me not to expect anything]
When Isabel delivered the words, the king chuckled.
“Honestly, I was curious because I had never entered an underground passage before. In fact, everyone knows that there is, but there is nothing like the medicine inside.”
The entrance to the secret passage was at the end of the hallway where the warehouses were located in the basement of the palace. In fact, there are two other entrances besides this one, but when I asked, even the king didn’t know about them, so I told them through Isabelle.
When the engine operated, a secret door that rotated through the entire wall opened and a long, endless staircase came out below.
“oh!”
“oh my god”
“Incredible.”
Two knights lit torches and led the way, followed by a party.
“The air is stuffy.”
“It must be because no one has come to the basement.”
[Um, is that so? I don’t feel that way… I’m sorry]
The downside of not being able to smell was revealed like this.
“no. It will be a really unforgettable good memory.”
Isabel rushed to defend it, but in my opinion, this was a big mistake. What if there was a gas or poison that I couldn’t feel in this place? That would have been terrible.
After that, it was a really enjoyable picnic. Aether sat on the back of an attendant and chatted, while the queen and Isabelle were excited about their first adventure. I don’t know what the king is like on the inside, but at least on the outside, the king seemed happy.
As I guided them, they finally arrived at their destination after winding through the maze-like underground passage.
[It’s all here.]
“Everyone has arrived.”
Still, the queen and Isabelle, who had weak stamina because they had walked quite a bit, looked a little tired.
[Can you point to the brick halfway up the right wall?]
“Here you go?”
[Two spaces up from there]
“Here you go?”
[Yes, read the article and tell them to hit it hard]
“Could you please hit this brick hard?”
Just as Isabelle had told them, a knight stepped forward and struck with a fist clad in a gauntlet.
bang!
It hit with considerable force, and a rather loud sound echoed through the aisle. But the brick didn’t even budge.
[Maybe it’s because it’s been a long time, so it seems to be harder than I thought]
The wall was simply hardened, but the knight’s face blushed a little as if his pride had been hurt, so he slammed the wall with his fist this time.
Quaang!
With an incomparable loud sound, the bricks went inside and disappeared. Only then did the knight’s expression brighten.
[If you put your hand there, there will be a ring. pull it]
“They tell me to put my hand in and pull the loop.”
As soon as Isabel finished speaking, the knight reached in and pulled the ring, but the ring did not budge. The knight, who was also wounded in pride, gave strength to his body and did his best, but it was the same.
[Uh, this is a bit strange, wait a minute]
If it is a normal organ, no matter how hard it is, it should be operational if the knight using the aura has exhausted his strength. Otherwise, the link would have already been broken.
I also thought it was a normal organ, but when I looked closely, it was a magical organ, not a mechanical organ.
[There’s a magic organ installed in a part I haven’t looked into? Would you mind waiting a little while to interpret it? I should have eaten a snack.]
They came out in the spirit of a picnic, so they even brought a bag of snacks.
As soon as Isabelle spoke, the attendant quickly spread the mat and began to take out simple food from the bag.
“Guardian Spirit seems to have considerable knowledge of magic.”
When the king, who was quietly chewing on a sandwich, said something, everyone nodded in admiration.
“It’s the red suit of the kingdom.”
Even the queen, who spoke very little, added a word.
“It would be nice if you would stay by our side without leaving like this.”
Isabel didn’t say anything behind her back, as if she thought it was rude to me.
“I hope you stay by my side at least until Aether grows up.”
The king’s remarks were quite subtle. Then it means that I have to stay for another 20 years, but if I can’t ascend to heaven after graduating from the academy, there’s nothing I can’t do.
But 20 years is quite a long time. What am I going to do in the meantime? The knowledge that can be learned at the academy is already scarce. There may be cases of magic towers, but how many years can they last?
By the time the party finished eating their snacks, the interpretation of the magic agency was almost finished. This was an institution for a specific person, precisely for a specific lineage.
What could be said of a specific lineage in the underground passage of the royal palace? It was a device for royalty. I thought it was good for the king to follow. Ether can do it, but it can be dangerous, right?
[If the king does it, it will work. You just need to hold the ring and inject some mana, maybe you will injure your hand a little, but it’s not dangerous, so don’t be alarmed]
When Isabelle spoke, the king said with a slightly nervous face.
“Should I do it?”
[Or Ether can do it]
“The prince says it’s okay.”
If you tell a 3-year-old to do something in this situation, it’s human garbage. No, in the first place, since ether can’t use mana yet, should I wait until ether is big?
“Hum-Hum!”
The king cleared his throat and reached into the hole, grabbed the ring, and raised mana. Then a small needle came out of the loop and pricked the king’s hand. The king flinched a little in surprise, but he didn’t scream or scream. If that was the case, it would be disgraceful, so I probably would have endured it desperately.
rumble!
The walls started to move with a fairly loud noise from the engine running. The king let go of his hand and stepped back, and the knights stepped forward to protect the king.
The wall opened on both sides, revealing a medium-sized chest. Of course I knew the contents.
[Just open the box, I’ve said it several times, but don’t expect it]
“You say you can just open it. And he told me not to expect too much.”
“Then let me open this too.”
The king stepped forward and opened the chest, whether it was because of sudden courage or the pleasure of opening the treasure chest. There were swords and shields with traces of time that I couldn’t even guess how old they were.
The king suddenly trembled and swept the outer surface of the sword and shield, and there was the royal family crest.
“This, this!”
The king screamed like a scream. Surprised by the king’s reaction, the party approached.
“Your Majesty, why are you doing that?”
“This seems to be the weapon the founding king used.”
Oh, yes. I’m glad though It may not have value as an object, but isn’t it of very high historical value? I’ll be treated like a treasure
Shaaagh!
The king raised his sword and drew it. Even though it was an old sword, the sound of the sword being pulled was unusual.
However, the sword he pulled out was special. It was a translucent like ruby, yet red like a burning sword.
“Surely. This is a sword made from the scales of a dragon hunted by the founding king.
“Yes?”
The group was startled and stunned. In particular, the knights who followed as an escort could not take their eyes off the sword with their mouths open. As a knight, he knew the value of that sword.
Is that the legendary dragon scale? I saw it for the first time. It is said that there are some weapons made from dragon by-products on the continent, but little has been revealed about them.
It is said that the dragon’s bones and scales are stronger than any metal and are optimized for using mana and aura. It was very difficult to process it into a weapon because it was almost impossible to process it.
The by-product of the dragon itself was legendary, but it was processed into a sword, so the value of this sword would be similar to that of a small kingdom.
“Then what is that shield?”
When the queen, who was unusually bright-eyed, asked, the king raised his shield this time and injected an aura. Then, a blindingly strong light burst from the shield.
