‘Is this enlightenment?’
Kazan thought.
It was while he was sitting in the center of his personal gymnasium and contemplating mana.
It’s because I started to catch something like a faint outline heading to the 8th circle.
After the confrontation with Whistle, Kazan, who went through life and death, felt a change in his body immediately after waking up.
Mana feels much more stable.
It felt like Mana was guiding him.
After that, he retreated to the gymnasium and continued to meditate.
‘It seems to have changed since Reinhardt caught the runaway.’
Mana runaway phenomenon.
The runaway target has a high probability of dying or becoming paralyzed.
However, Reinhardt’s hands caught the runaway.

Just like how he ruled over Carmon’s rampage in the past.
It should be seen that this change also occurred after that.
‘… What is mana?’
Kazan had never thought deeply about mana.
I don’t remember ever having to put much effort into it.
innate talent.
Mana increased just by breathing.
He was destined not to become emperor anyway. It is because living comfortably without any greed has become the goal of life.
However, he lost the confrontation with Whistle and Kazan regretted it.
I’ll try my best I’ll try to live as hard as possible.
‘Moving according to orders is never a natural phenomenon.’
It will be different now.
For the first time, Kazan continued to worry.
mana. Auras that are supernatural and embroidered throughout the world.
But nothing in nature moves according to human commands. However, only mana is input and performed according to human commands.
‘If it’s artificial. If mana was created for someone’s needs… for what purpose?’
The twelve gods who created this world.
According to the doctrine of the Holy Church, mana must also have been created by the main god.
The function of mana is ‘change’. It changes its properties according to the input command.
A representative example is the four major elements.
fire, water, wind and earth.
In addition to this, it can change to rare areas such as light, darkness, and ice.
Truly complete. Isn’t that an all-purpose tool?
‘God created a versatile tool called Mana. And humans could become masters of the earth because they knew how to use tools. But if you don’t handle it properly, it will explode. In the first place, this is because the all-powerful tool is not a human’s.’
A runaway phenomenon caused by mana.
There is no human in this world who can rule it.
To be precise, there was none.
There were many challenges and efforts, but the story of healing a runaway human was a story that only came out of a novel.
‘But Reinhardt dealt with runaways. Fundamental understanding of the tools God made was possible because there was introspection. Reinhardt knows what mana is.’
Because you know the exact identity of the tool, you can catch errors.
Wizards often mistake themselves for technicians.
But a real technician should also know how to repair tools when they break.
But the odd thing is that it’s all the same.
Does that mean that Reinhardt is the only human being to have reached that truth?
‘ah.’
That was the moment.
The realization that mana is not a natural being.
When I questioned that mana was created for other needs, I felt as if I could touch mana with my fingertips.
Kazan closed his eyes and moved his hand.
Accordingly, Mana is following.
Kazan waved his hands in rhythm like an opera conductor.
Then more mana began to shine and dance around Kazan.
‘An all-purpose tool, the power to rule the world. Mana is like that.’
Whoever controls mana controls the world.
To ‘dominate’ is to regard mana as just a tool.
It is not a natural object to be worshiped, but a tool to be handled out of necessity.
Ordinarily, even orders were unnecessary.
burrr!
Kazan shuddered.
At the same time.
············· Crossed the wall.
8 circles.
This level is comparable to that of the Mage Tower owners.
It was the moment when the youngest Circle 8 wizard was born.
But that wasn’t the point.
Kazan smiled. Then he opened his eyes and looked at the center of the rippling mana.
Something that emits a greater light than other mana.
The greatest power to lead and follow mana.
‘This is Reinhardt’s mana.’
After healing the runaway, he realized the existence of the mana that Reinhardt planted in him.
The absolute cause that healed runaways and regenerated the body.
Come to think of it, Carmondo and Raunel also… they both crossed the wall after experiencing Reinhardt.
Carmon was already in the 5th circle at such a young age, and Launel also became a sword master.
‘Reinhardt’s mana evolves humans.’
Soon, Kazan shook his head and corrected his thoughts.
‘Reinhardt changes people.’
Not mana, but Reinhardt itself has such an effect.
‘He is the master of mana.’
He is the master of mana and tools.
Kazan opened his eyes and stood up.
He should have known the true identity of the tool.
Perhaps he has reached the ‘9th circle’ that all wizards long for.
Muyoungchang. Ruler of Mana!
So I’ll have to find out. I’ll have to check.
“… disappeared?”
“Yes. Lowering. Her Highness suddenly disappeared three days ago. An extensive search is under way, but so far there has been no news. Whoa.”
However, Reinhardt’s butler, Germin, heard the news like thunder from the sky.
Reinhardt disappeared ‘again’.
Kazan bit his lip.
At the same time, regret flooded in.
Because you can’t ask about the question?
Because I couldn’t ask what mana was and if I really reached the 9th circle?
no. It wasn’t that kind of sadness or regret.
‘I couldn’t say thank you properly…’
thank you for treating me
I just regretted not being able to say that one word.

“Are you the first monarch?”
Launel swallowed a gulp.
It’s been a month since I started as the head of the Northern Peace Agreement Team.
We finally arrived in the north and sat down at the negotiating table.
On the other side of such Launel was the 1st monarch.
1 monarch.
The mightiest of the north.
I know the rumors about him.
He was also known for being the most stubborn of all monarchs.
This was evident from the fact that he was leading the negotiations with Archduke Carlos and his men without making any concessions.
“It is true that I am the first monarch. Is that Prince Launel?”
“Yes.”
“Didn’t Crown Prince Reinhard originally plan to come?”
“… that’s how it happened.”
“Hmm. Come and change at the last minute… Besides, it’s not even a match. Does the Empire really want a war that never ends?”
Taang.
Lord 1 hit the table.
At the same time, waves of mana roared and engulfed Launel’s entire body.
‘crazy.’
Launel couldn’t help but be very nervous.
Manada more than rumors. The air wave alone made the knights around him kneel on one knee.
Not just a sword master.
Lord 1 was a strong man who was at least one number stronger than himself.
Undaunted, Launel pulled an object from his bosom.
“He asked me to deliver this.”
“This······?”
A flash flashed in the eyes of Lord 1, who received the goods.
But Launel was restless.
Reinhardt asked for it, so he would deliver it, but he didn’t know what the hell this thing had to do with the peace treaty.
‘portion······.’
The delivered item was a potion.
A potion created by the Holy Overlord to cure Pagan.
“Yung. Great Pagan.”
The first monarch summoned Jung.
Soon after, he was called ‘The Great Pagan’ and respected by the people of the north.
It was cured to some extent by a potion the other day, but it was not cured.
In particular, because it was a ‘great pagan’ that was greatly influenced by the Holy Land, the organs including the skin have not been completely restored yet.

Jung opened the lid of the potion and put it in his mouth.
gulp!
“Ummm…”
Read at noblemtl.com
Jung swallowed his saliva.
at the same time.
“… It must have been sent by the Sacred Overlord.”
1 monarch acknowledged it.
This is because as soon as I drank it, I could see that the unhealed parts of Jung were healed.
The only person who can cause such a transfer is the ‘Sacred Overlord’.
Launel sent it.
It must be the will of the divine overlord to end this agreement now.
“Do not sign.”
“…?”
Launel was dumbfounded.
It’s because it was so sudden.
It was a negotiation that had been sluggishly dragging on for a long time, pretending to be with Archduke Carlos.
That one potion made it happen?
‘······ Sacred Overlord?’
A divinity that unified the north.
The protagonist who suddenly appeared and led this war to this point.
That is the Divine Overlord.
However, it was Reinhardt who told him to hand over the potion.
If you hand over the potion, the agreement will proceed quickly.
I doubted it, but it was true.
But I couldn’t understand.
How did Reinhardt know that, and how did he have the same potion as the Holy Overlord’s will?
‘no way······.’
Raunel shook his head at the sudden thought.
no way.
The lord of the north, the divine overlord like the emperor of the north… couldn’t be Reinhardt.

“Whoa. Is that the ‘Northern Dragon’?”
“A dragon that was sealed by humans a thousand years ago?”
“The dragon that used the entire North as its nest?”
······ A commotion ensued.
Controlling the whole body of the balrog, I entered the blood circuit.
Because I controlled and dominated everything in the Balrog, I became the Balrog itself.
The gaze of dragons looking at me like that.
It felt as if I would suffocate from the intimidating feeling of the dragons that wept with their huge bodies.
‘fourteen.’
Read at noblemtl.com
Just fourteen.
All the dragons of the Dragon Blood Society were gathered here.
It is located for today’s ‘plenary meeting’.
So did I.
‘Once the first step was passed.’
There seemed to be no suspicious glances.
However, I just looked at it as if it was funny and funny.
It was introduced as a dragon that appeared for the first time in a thousand years, so it was understandable.
“By the way, isn’t there another one?”
“Malfiel… among the names that joined this time, Malfiel must have been one.”
Malfiel’s name was mentioned.
A dragon that joined the dragon at the same time as the northern dragon.
It was as if he didn’t know that Malfiel was dead yet.
“Malfiel is dead.”
Except for one person.
Alec.
The person who brought Malfiel to the dragon blood meeting. dragon of death!
He was the dragon who probably watched Malfiel the most closely.
The dragon looked at me and said.
“The Deadly Sins are said to have resurrected and killed Malfiel.”
“Ah, that ‘singularity’?”
The mortal sins they called the Singularity.
The dragons expressed their uncomfortable feelings at the sound of a singularity.
That emotion is close to anger.
You wouldn’t be able to show this kind of reaction unless you instinctively had an aversion to the Singularity and the Deadly Sins.
And Alec nailed it.
“’Singularity’ is the target that we, the Dragon Blood Society, must prioritize and eliminate. It is an existence that must be destroyed by putting aside all trials. To make sure that ‘that thing’ doesn’t happen again.”
that thing?
What happened to the singularity?
Alec continued.
“Isn’t that right, the Dragon of the North?”
······ But why are you talking to me while looking straight at me like that?
suspicious eyes.
As if I knew what I had done.
