247 – Fragment of the Past – 2
“Uh…… Uh…… ?”
Claudia was so flustered that she couldn’t even utter a word, and her lips pursed incessantly. Iris, Rize, and Erica, who were watching the sparring, were no exception.
Because no matter how many of them there are, they won’t be able to act the same way as I did. If he tried recklessly, his whole upper body would be cut off rather than being caught with the greatsword.
I lightly pulled out the greatsword stuck in the ground with one hand and turned it 90 degrees in the air. The hilt of the sword that had been facing the sky came down towards Claudia.
“Here, your greatsword.”
When I stretched out my arm, the hilt of the sword thrust right in front of Claudia. Turning a greatsword with one hand like turning a cane was not an easy action.
Knowing that fact better than anyone else, Claudia just stood there blankly, not even thinking about grabbing the extended sword hilt.
“I don’t get surprised when I’m really messy…… This…… I have nothing to say…….”
Claudia stared alternately at the handle of the greatsword that had come right in front of her, and at me holding it with only the strength of her fingers and lifting it close to the horizontal line, and stammered at his words.
“I told you before the sparring started. I think it will surprise you.”
“…… That, no, isn’t this something that can be played and slept on…… ?”
Claudia took the handle with a dumbfounded face and swung it around. He could hear the sound of the wind even as he held and wielded a greatsword that size with one hand.
“…… The weight hasn’t changed.”
“Suddenly, what kind of weight?”
“You’ve been hanging out with Schientia-nim a lot lately. I wonder if you learned magic and used it.”
“I must have done that.”
“I know, I know. I just made a joke because I couldn’t believe it. If you had used magic, you would have noticed it sooner?”
While Claudia was admiring her elongated figure, Iris, Lize, and Erica, who were playing together on the other side of her, strode forward.
All three of them had faces that couldn’t hide their surprise, but the detailed emotions were slightly different. Iris was doubtful, Erika was astonished, and Rize’s excitement was mingled with her surprise.
“What did you do, Delta?”
“What did you do? It’s just what you see. Grab hold of Claudia’s wielding power, voila.”
“Hold on by force…… ? Wait. Then, was it real that her sister was being held by Mr. Delta, not an act?”
“Didn’t you hear before the sparring started? She said she wasn’t full, but she was quite strong.”
“… ….”
Iris and Erica opened their mouths. Contrary to the two of them, who were so shocked that they froze in place, Lize, who looked very excited, jumped up and jumped at me.
Rise tightly wrapped her legs around my waist and hung on to me, kissing me as if she was going to die of cuteness. The baptism of kisses ended only after dozens of kisses continued.
“Awesome, Delta! What happened? What did you do to get this strong?”
“What…… No big deal. Her memories began to come back after I met the goddess face-to-face.”
“…… Really?”
Rise’s face, which had been full of smiles, suddenly became serious. Iris, Erica, and Claudia had similar reactions.
It’s a thing of the past now, but that’s what I said when I first met the Knights of the Silver Dawn.
Because of the witch’s curse, all of her physical abilities have deteriorated to the bottom, and even her memories have been lost. It was an excuse that fit the setting of the abandoned person, but somehow it all became the truth.
It’s true that Nix put some kind of curse on me, it’s true that his physical abilities have deteriorated to the bottom, and even that he’s lost his memory is all right.
It was like catching a mouse while the cow was walking backwards.
“We haven’t come back yet, only a part of it. But as the memory returns, so does the ability. That’s how it was possible just now.”
Nyx said that the concept of levels and stats is the process by which I regain my former strength. In other words, if you regain your strength, you can use all the game systems from Br 1 to 3.
Because I’ve already experienced it in the past.
From
3, It has improved a lot, but in good terms, it is unique, and in bad terms, the build quality is sloppy. There were quite a few things that would destroy the balance if you decided to use it.
There are magic tricks that are deceptive enough to destroy the entire game the moment you get them, and there are also skills that will definitely capture you without asking or questioning if it’s an attack using a weapon like before.
I haven’t played the game myself, but I’ve looked for a lot of related information since it’s a previous game of Brunet 4.
‘Maybe I can use it if my memories come back.’
“…… Delta. Then do you even remember who you used to be?”
Rize, who came down to the ground at some point, cautiously asked a question. I didn’t know how to answer, so I just laughed.
The first Undead. Who inherited the mission. The one who suppressed the curse. All three of them were me, so I can’t say that openly.
While the captains of the knights grumbled about how they took my laughter, someone landed on the training ground and quickly approached us. There was no sound of footsteps, not even dust.
“Captain of the Delta Knights.”
She was a maid who had been carrying out orders from Caicilia for a long time.
“What happened?”
“His Majesty has ordered the Knight Commander to move immediately to the designated location.”
“Okay. Where should I go?”
His emotionless eyes turned to me.
“It is in front of the imperial palace treasure house.”
‘It’s an imperial palace treasure chest, it came sooner than I thought.’
Originally, after receiving the golden key from Fetch, I was planning to use the golden key to get in and out after telling Minerva properly.
If you hand over 3 or more ancient scrolls in the game, you will not become hostile to the empire even if you enter and exit the imperial palace treasury. It was a setting that the eternal wizard persuaded the emperor to do so.
‘Even if that’s not the case now, it seems that if you ask Caicilia to open it…….’
Her relationship with Kai Kilia has grown very rapidly since she went to Hell. If this happened, she seemed to have to reconsider where to use the golden key.
“Delta! This way!”
Caicilia and Aurora were waiting for me in front of the treasure house. Seeing the two of them standing side by side made me realize how incredibly powerful Caicilia’s mother’s genes were.
It was hard to believe that they were her twin sisters rather than aunt and nephew, except that one looked a little younger.
In the past, I thought it was the result of rewriting modeling, but the truth was just thanks to the power of genes.
“What did you call me for, Your Majesty?”
“What is the reason for calling you all the way here?”
“I don’t know.”
“Ha, in the end, you’re going to have her speak directly with her mouth. This sly thing.”

Kai Killia frowned at my attitude of clearing out my intentions but saying I don’t know and pulling her away, but I couldn’t find the slightest hint of living like before.
If the previous Kai Killia felt like a ticking time bomb that would blow her throat if she was really wrong, the current Kai Killia was completely different.
No matter how high-handedly she pretended to be, she only felt that she was an antagonist.
“I heard the explanation from my aunt. Are you okay, Delta?”
Laura looked at me with her worried gaze. I nodded her head.
“Yes, that’s fine. The goddess herself fixed it.”
“I’m glad. I was worried about what would happen if something went wrong. Oh, and you said that you came from the Holy Land after committing a crime? Well, at least that much is enough to be able to face the Goddess in person.”
“Where else did you hear that?”
“Have you forgotten who I’ve been with? After hearing that the Pope followed you to the imperial palace, her aunt called the Pope.”
“… ….”
I put on a disgusted expression, anticipating what the two of them would say. Cai Killia snorted at me as she saw me.
“You foolish thing. Seongkuk is a country made up of fanatics who would be willing to cut off their limbs if it was for the sake of God, but did you know what would happen and descended into the middle of the Seongguk fearlessly?”
“…… It really wasn’t meant to be.”
“Whether intentionally or not, from now on, not only your words, but also your every action and glance will become the object of worship and praise from those fanatics. It is inevitable.”
It sounded even more frightening because I had personally experienced until recently that there was not even the slightest exaggeration in that expression. Cae Killia added her words without hesitation despite my disgusted response.
“If you don’t like that, there is a way to live in the imperial palace for the rest of your life and not leave the woman’s side, so think carefully.”
“… ….”
While I was struggling with Ji Seon Da of Hell, Kai Kilia placed her hand on a door that was smaller in size than the doorway of the central hall but many times more ornate.
It was made entirely of gold, and it was such a door that you could live on for the rest of your life by taking off and selling only the jewels attached to the surface.
She raised her hand and after about 3 seconds the door opened on both sides. Caicilia entered it without hesitation. Aurora was second, and I was last.
The door closed by itself as soon as I went inside.
“Wow… ….”
Aurora exclaimed at the sight of the stairs.
Everywhere the eye could see was covered in gold, and the types and numbers of jewels were so wide and scattered that I had to give up counting them. Every time she took a step, a jewel crystal was knocked off.
Cai Killia casually gave her advice, perhaps sensing Aurora’s presence as she carefully walked to avoid stepping on her jewelry.
“The entire vault is protected by Minerva’s magic, Aurora. With your strength, you won’t get a single scratch no matter how much you trample on it, so walk normally.”
Hearing that, Aurora looked back at me with her embarrassed face and started walking normally.
After going down the stairs, I saw another door. It was an appearance that would not be inferior to those of the outside, and perhaps even more splendid.
Caecilia stood in front of him. The magic circle on the floor glowed and a blue square pillar appeared in the air. Cai Killia laid her hand over it.
‘…… Maybe I couldn’t open this with the golden key?’
At that point, it is virtually no different from fingerprint recognition.
The door opened shortly after. The interior landscape was revealed through the cracks. As soon as Aurora entered after Kaikilia, she stopped and froze.
Inside there was a mountain of gold, literally.
The height alone seemed to be dozens of meters, but there were dozens of such golden mountains. The banquet of jewels that half-covered the mountain and all kinds of weapons stuck in the middle were a bonus.
In the game, except for a few items that were placed to be eaten, they were all decorations.
Unlike me, who managed to stop being surprised at the scenery I had seen through graphics, Aurora, who had become stiff, did not intend to move. He had no choice but to push me on the back and move forward.
Cai Cilia passed through the gold and entered her center without hesitation.
“Do you know what this rune is, Commander of the Jet Dark Night Knights?”
There was a rune stone at the place where she stopped.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“I want to give this to you.”
“That rune…… Are you talking?”
“I see.”
Kai Killia nodded her head.
This rune was originally given as a final reward for being loyal to the emperor until the end of the game. Matching the method of obtaining it, the effect was very unconventional.
‘Yes, it’s a good effect once activated. When triggered…….’
“Auntie, what is that rune?”
Aurora asked a question while I swallowed a bitter smile at the conditions for using that rune. Instead of answering right away, Kai Kilia looked at me intently, and it took a while before she opened her mouth.
“It is to bring you back to life from the dead.”
