40. spiritual body (2)

<System Message>

[As the spirit body enchanted in ‘Soul Linker’ awakens, some of its functions are opened. ]

[Check the fusion of ‘Hero’s Fragments’. ]

[ The level of the skill that is opened is strengthened. ]

[‘Skill: Imaginary World’ is open. ]

At the same time as the spiritual body appeared, a white curtain spread around me.

It’s as if the entire background around me is being pushed out in pure white.

It is similar to the ‘erosion’ phenomenon that occurred when the gray demon fragment was summoned earlier. It is in terms of the ability to spread its influence on the surrounding area.

It’s not as powerful a skill as Erosion, which stops time itself, but that doesn’t mean it’s weak.

[ To a knight, a comrade is a family. You can spread some of the buffs you have to nearby people. ]

“…”

It’s possible to share buffs…

Does it make sense?

Of course, since there is a limit of ‘some’, it may not be able to fully transfer the performance, but there is no limit on the number of people, and there is no limit on the level of buffs that can be shared.

Although it is said that it is possible only within the scope of the realm.

‘How many meters around me right now.’

At least right now, it’s a range that can be fully utilized in close-range combat.

And even though the target who got this is trash with all stats F, most of Nago solves the situation with ridiculous buff skills.

‘…I was good at getting it quickly.’

uh. really.

It’s not an epic item for nothing. Such a crazy effect from the beginning.

As I thought so, the spiritual body that fully appeared in the pure white world of images began to take shape.

A visor covering the face. full body armor. And among such equipment, a breastplate engraved with a lion’s head stands out.

It is the standard equipment of the Imperial Guard.

As a single group, it is a group that is evaluated as the strongest on the continent.

The difference between an ordinary person and a regular driver is often compared to the difference between a baby and an adult man.

The difference between the regular knights and the imperial guard is talked about as a similar gap.

And, among the imperial guards, the ones wearing the ‘lion’s breastplate’.

Among those monsters, they were at the peak.

‘Guardians.’

A group of only the strongest knights of the time.

It was a group that was swarming with guys with almost the same skills as Gideon, who is currently called the strongest in the empire.

Why are they the ones who were ‘subjected’ to special treatment? they were annihilated

These guys were brought in during the ‘Red Night Incident’ that swept Elijah’s family, and they cut off the head of the bowl that caused the incident.

“…”

It’s a feat that doesn’t make sense.

As you can see from the previous Purifier boss fight, the energy of the devil itself summons the creatures of Pandaemonium to the material world. Especially if it’s a guy with several pieces gathered at the same time.

Against the guy who single-handedly summoned an army of thousands of monsters, only a few dozen or so people were urgently put in and the situation was successfully extinguished.

So, any of them deserves to be called a great man.

However.

I think I know who this is.

“…Hello, Guardian.”

At my words, the knight’s eyes slowly returned to me.

[Who are you? Where are you?]

The voice of the spiritual body echoes inside the image world.

As expected, it was the voice of a young man. It’s similar to the atmosphere of the guy I know.

In order for a human being to transform into a thought form, he must not simply be great.

There has to be a ‘fussiness’ that makes you feel terrible.

Before I die, I have a goal that I couldn’t achieve, so I can’t close my eyes even if I want to. what would that feel like

And, among the annihilated guardians, there was only one human who could have such a thing.

“I have heard the story and know it.”

[…What?]

uh. It really is.

It’s not just game knowledge, it’s because I’ve already heard about it from someone else.

“Nice to meet you, Caliban.”

The movement of the spiritual body stopped abruptly.

Caliban Krisanax.

The title given is the Knight of Dawn. The strongest and last Guardian. Even if he catches it low, he is a top-level strongman who has the same level of fighting power as Gideon.

The main character of Chapter 4.

and.

“The other day, he said that you and I look alike. your sister.”

He is the older brother of the warrior Elijah.

<System Message>

[ Check the current condition of the target ‘Elijah’. ]

[Current favorability less than ‘trust’. Contact with target ‘Caliban’ has been confirmed. ]

[If you increase your affinity to ‘trust’, a dedicated quest will be unlocked. ]

<System Message>

[‘The Inquisition’ is starting to take an interest in you! ]

Read the message that popped up in front of your eyes.

Caliban Krisanax is a person who plays a very important role in the growth of Elijah in the main story.

It is also true in that Elijah himself is the object of longing and following, and also in that he is the only remaining blood relative and is desperately seeking his place.

‘…As you can see, whether he is alive or dead.’

If he was alive, he wouldn’t have become a thought body.

In the end, it is an episode related to Elijah, who learns that his brother is dead, and gets a great mental shock, but overcomes it and becomes a true warrior.

As you can see from that progress, the information the player can know about Caliban is very fragmentary. At least at the beginning of the scenario, unlike Gideon, who is still alive, he is considered a deceased who has already died a long time ago.

So, some information I didn’t know.

[Hey, the memories are fresh. Compared to when I was there, nothing has changed?]

“…”

[Ah, when did I enter the school…]

This man is more talkative than you might think.

“…You have been resurrected as a spiritual body, aren’t you shocked by the current situation?”

As I whispered that to the amulet, a giggling voice echoed in my head.

[Because the memories of the dead are already there. What would you do if you denied reality? Rather than that, isn’t it better to quickly adapt to the current situation?]

okay. As you can see, the adaptability is incredibly fast.

That’s how he accepted my ‘request for cooperation’ in an instant, saying that he was in no position to refuse given my circumstances.

I was about to receive a promise to cooperate with anything, as long as I didn’t commit an openly bad thing, less than an hour after I woke up.

[Well, I don’t have a choice anyway, right? Shouldn’t I do everything you tell me to do now?]

left such a word

It was like signing a slave contract in the tone that some dinner menu would prefer meat.

“…”

I wonder if this is just being packaged at a level that adaptability is good.

After all, the strongest man among the Guardians. Mental is not usually extraordinary.

[Well, there were conditions though.]

The voice inside the amulet died down for a moment.

It’s like he’s barely suppressing something that makes him cry.

Thanks to that, the voice that followed was cheerful as before.

[You can’t talk about me to Elijah. until I say yes. Is that your promise too?]

“…yes, I promise.”

I know why.

The fact that Elijah now knows whether this person is alive or dead is itself… a ‘danger’ to them.

The events of Elijah and the ‘Heretic Inquisition’ were opened when Caliban’s soul was awakened. A group reputed to be the most ruthless in the Empire.

Because it wasn’t open for nothing.

‘…Not until he gives his permission.’

I remember the sentence I just said and stroke my chin.

I think I know roughly when that time is.

This person and Elijah would be the main quest in Chapter 4. Find the owner of the holy sword.

After that, Elijah’s fighting power skyrocketed to the level where he could face the demons in earnest.

‘…Although I have to fight with the Heretic Inquisition instead.’

Even just thinking about the message that came to mind just now.

Maybe it’s better to think that sooner or later we will see each other’s faces. I really don’t want to get involved with him.

While I was sighing inwardly and thinking about that, Sir Ophelia, the dormitory superintendent, was clapping her hands in front of me, attracting the attention of the new students gathered in the auditorium.

“So, you all know the reason for gathering, right? It’s midterm soon-“

Scream-like sighs flowed from everywhere in the notice that Sir Ophelia had brought out in a languid voice.

Well, is there anyone in the world who likes exams?

Especially if it’s Elfante’s regular exam, which is known to be strict.

“I’m sure there are still a lot of people who haven’t decided on their major because they’re still freshmen, but everyone should take the midterm exam fairly.”

The regular exams of freshmen who are not even assigned to school districts are always taken in a similar format in the end.

Great Plains Survival.

It is to put students on an enormous stage and have them battle in teams.

The main enemies officially defined by the empire are, after all, witch beasts and devil worshippers, and Elfante itself is an organization established with the purpose of opposing them. Focus on combat skills first and foremost.

It’s not for nothing that the Knights Faculty is the most popular.

“Survival consists of a team of up to 4 people- you will be traveling together for two days, so choose carefully-”

In fact, the reason why they gathered in this auditorium must be to gather together and form a team.

Of course, it doesn’t matter if you are alone. As the difficulty level increases, the points also increase.

However, I have no intention of going that way now.

Because this midterm is a very important event.

It’s not just because it’s a test, but the events that happen in between are very important.

‘Saint Lucien. boy king. The law.’

Because it’s an incident that gets entangled with these three people at the same time.

I don’t want to be important, I can’t be important.

So, I also have to organize a party optimized for rolling the case as I intended.

‘Team formation is…’

First of all, Elnor is dismissed.

Even so, it is absurd for the student council president to even interfere in freshmen’s exams.

There is also a ‘role’ to take on.

So, who should be the first to be recruited?

“there.”

When I approached Elijah, who was chatting with his friends, and said that, the surroundings instantly became quiet.

everything is spherical

Luca. Falco. grid. Trisha. The warrior party members.

“…”

Originally, I would have let Elijah continue to go with these guys, but now I also need this guy.

“…I’m sorry, but would it be okay if I took this guy with me for the midterm exam?”

Saying that, the guys all at once fell silent.

Looking at each other while staring into each other’s eyes, everyone looks embarrassed.

‘…was it a bit sudden?’

From the point of view of these guys, they are having a good time with their friends, but it must look like some random guy rolls over and tries to take one of them away.

It’s natural to be so upset

“That’s great, Elijah!”

“I knew it would be like this! He always said that!”

“Ah yes! Take me! Please, please!”

Luca, Grid, and Falco said so in thrilling voices, and they all patted Elijah’s back.

It’s like congratulating a friend on a good thing that happened.

“…”

what is this mood

“…Is this something worth celebrating?”

When I cautiously asked that question, the wizard Falco answered with a swipe of his nose.

“No, Elijah kept singing about wanting to see him for the midterm exam. Seeing him hanging out with the student president all the time, he must have felt a sense of crisis, and this time he said he should do something while hanging out with him-”

A merciless fist lodged in Falco’s face.

Seeing him collapse like a doll with a thread cut while he was talking, he must have fainted in one hit.

“Ah, Seo, it’s such a big deal that the teacher recommended it! yes!”

“…”

And Elijah, who clenched his fist, said so in a slightly brash tone.

Your face is a bit red Breathing is also difficult.

“…Are you okay?”

Aren’t you overdoing it?

Something doesn’t look normal?

When I asked him with such suspicion, Elijah rolled his eyes and scratched the back of his head.

“Okay, that’s fine! of course! ha ha ha!”

“…No, I was invited to go out with a guy who cared a lot, but it’s really okay-“

Elijah’s short hook stuck in the face of shooter Grid who was saying that. It was such a clean attitude that the warrior Luca, who was watching from the side, admired slightly.

It seems that this one also fainted neatly in one room. fall straight to the floor

“Really, I’m fine! yes!”

“…”

“Hey, get out of here for now! Before you hear more nonsense!”

okay. I’m glad you’re okay.

Getting out of the seat is also a perfect suggestion.

[…What is your relationship with my sister?]

In the amulet, Caliban muttered that in a bewildered voice, but he ignored it for now and returned the words to Elijah.

“okay. Great. I have one more place to go.”

“yes? Where are you going?”

“It is team building. We need at least one more.”

To be precise, he needed one human who was related to Saint Lucien.

“…”

It’s really the worst person to join an event like this, though.

Can not help it.

“Elijah.”

“Yes?”

“Have you ever heard of a furnishings room?”

So.

It is time for the monumental debut of Swordsman.

“…So, this regular delegation includes Saint Lucien Greyhounder and her escort knight. Thank you, President, for your generosity.”

“Not much to say, His Holiness.”

It will seem like a friendly conversation.

In fact, a polite expression hung over Atalanta’s face as she faced the man behind the magical marbles for long-distance communication.

However, she was fervently chewing on the gossip about the other person.

If it’s a conversation between educated intellectuals, it’s to the point where you’ll be beaten and kicked out.

‘He was threatening with his entire body that he would stab Elfante if he didn’t give permission.’

disgusting human.

Atalanta’s evaluation of the Emperor could be summed up in that one sentence.

Saint Credo Paul II. laws of the present age.

It’s also disgusting that he’s a cunning human who can casually stab people in the back with a smile on his face.

It is also disgusting to see the obvious treatment of people’s lives as less than worms, despite being the head of the continent’s best and largest religious group.

It is also disgusting that the divine power that can be used on such a subject is at the level of discussing the strongest of all time beyond the current generation’s strongest.

‘I don’t even know what the intention is to hand the saintess over here.’

Most of the talented people who gather in Elfante now are people with her breath. Especially those who are suspected of being devil’s vessel candidates.

Saint Lucien was one of them, but honestly, even she didn’t think that it would be accepted.

saintess. An existence that is like a religious symbol of the empire and the holy kingdom.

Although handing over such a human to the empire casually was an unconventional decision in itself.

This human said that he would hand it over ‘as soon as possible’, and even threatened us to bring the saintess into the academy without fail.

As if it had some intention.

“What are you doing to express your gratitude with your bare lips? I would like to give you a little help.”

And, the words that follow must be in that context.

“El Fante is now in the midterm period. Isn’t it?”

Atalanta’s expression softened slightly.

‘…Midterm exam?’

What is the reason that a human being of the level of the emperor cares about the affairs of students?

Not to mention the regular exams.

The story is so different in scale that I can’t even guess the intention.

“…I do. It’s entirely an internal academy event, His Holiness. You don’t have to worry about that-“

“no.”

The emperor cut her off in a clear voice.

“Give Lucien a job, President.”

Unlike the voice, of course.

“Obviously, he will help.”

There was poison like a snake in his eyes.

    I thought the Emperor was cooperating with Atalanta for the harem plan, which is why he insisted that the Saintess go to the place where MC is

  2. Arcus 101 Arcus 101 says:

    Hmm? So did the saintess escaped the radar of being a vessel of a demon? Because the MC said that the vessel can either be her or that 3-meter slash girl(I forgot her name).
