Episode 86.
While traveling with Ephinia, something inside me changed.
I wonder if what was blurry has become clear.
“Why am I doing this?”
Gradually, Epinia started to look beautiful.
Actually, I already thought that I might like Epinia.
But it wasn’t certain.
It was just a vague idea that it might be.
‘From then on…’
Ephinia’s words that she would have given up the succession anyway.
Right after he said that, his feelings for Ephinia grew bigger and bigger.
Maybe it was because he had the same thoughts as me.
These thoughts ceased when Ephinia spoke to me.
“Suhar, there are still many places left to travel, let’s hurry.”
“Ah yes!”
I thought that this moment would last forever.
At the same time, a thought occurred to me.
‘What will Ephinia think of me?’
***
Ephinia applied heavy makeup around her eyes without Suhar noticing.
It was because of dark circles.
From the moment I started traveling with Suhar, I couldn’t get a good night’s sleep.
It’s because I couldn’t sleep because my heart pounded every night.
“Why do you keep thinking about that time!”
Suhar when Suhar brought the demon of the book, Suhar’s back when he was in danger from bandits.
The image of Suhar, who kept saving her, came to Ephinia’s mind.
Epinia herself was well aware of why she was doing this.
“You must like Suhar. With reason…”
That’s why I planned this trip.
To be honest, it was close to what I said out of anger.
Although she is the princess of the Mycenae Empire, she has not been to all the tourist spots in the Mycenae Empire.
Rather, I didn’t go much.
“Because I was busy because of the curse.”
That’s why the current situation is even more new.
“I can’t believe there were so many beautiful places in the Mechener Empire.”
That’s all I’ve seen in books so far.
That’s why I realized that going and seeing it in person, not in a book, is on a different level.
Besides, in a way, what Ephinia is doing right now.
“It’s what lovers do.”
Ephinia was embarrassed enough to blush at the words she had uttered.
It was Ephinia’s first love.
When I was young, there was talk of engagement, but from the moment Ephinia fell under the curse, there was no talk of engagement.
It wasn’t a situation to fall in love in the first place.
“I wonder if a curse has been applied…”
Did he fall in love because his heart felt relaxed the moment the curse was applied?
Or was the curse devouring even the emotion of love?
“Ike, Suhar will wait for you.”
Epinia hurriedly finished her makeup and hurriedly moved to the place where Suhar was waiting.
***
The trip to the Mycenae Empire went differently than I expected.
‘Honestly, I thought there was nothing to see in the Mycenae Empire other than the Colosseum.’
Since I had been to Forast, I had no expectations.
Forast Village, which is called the best view.
Having already experienced it, I couldn’t help it.
However, that thought changed completely while traveling.
‘It’s not as good as Forest Village, but it’s good.’
There were many places with beautiful scenery.
When I got tired of looking at the scenery, I went to the city.
The cities of the Mycenaean Empire that I went to during my travels were all good.
“There are so many cities that can be compared to the free city I was asking for.”
It was also an empire.
Epinia said as if it were natural.
“That’s right. It’s an empire!”
However, there was one thing that was disappointing.
“It feels like all the textures of the trip are the same.”
If I had to choose, this was my complaint.
Enjoy the natural scenery or eat delicious food.
It might be fun for a day or two.
But the same daily life is the fourth day.
To be honest, I’m starting to get bored.
“Um… isn’t there a unique place like the Colosseum in the Empire?”
“If that’s the case…”
Ephinia, who had been thinking for a while, showed a bright color even by clapping her hands.
“right! It was there.”
“Is that there?”
“Yeah, it’s a very famous place in the empire, so why didn’t I think of that place.”
If you are famous in the empire.
The Colosseum, and…
Suddenly, a place came to mind.
“Could it be the ruins of Theojaia?”
“That’s right!”
If it was the Theojaia ruins, I was familiar with it.
There were several types of ruins.
Ruins with mechanical dolls like golems as guards, or ruins with monsters as guards by unknown power.
Usually, these ruins contained precious treasures of the person who made them.
However, other types of remains also existed.
‘Usually other types of ruins are often used as tourist destinations.’
It was an artificially created villa in the past.
The commonality there was nothing like protecting the ruins.
In addition, the Theojaia site was a successful place to restore the ruins to their original state.
“That sounds like fun!”
“right. But why didn’t I think of it?”
Well, the reason I didn’t think of it is simple.
Theojaia ruins were located near the capital of the empire.
Usually, it can be said that the bottom of the lamp is dark.
“Then, let’s go to the Theojaia ruins one last time! I’ll leave the guidance to you.”
“huh. Leave it alone!”
Ephinia and I decided on the Theojaia ruins as our destination, and set off right away.
Then, a thought came to me.
‘Is it okay to take the wolf to the ruins?’
no matter what
***
An organization brought together with great ambition, Noblesse.
It was an organization with the intention of eradicating all the current nobles.
However, their leadership was in a difficult situation due to Suhar.
The second person shouted at the Noblesse organization.
“Why can’t we find out who the hell is that!”
At the screams of the second-in-command, the executives of the organization could not lift their heads with their heads bowed.
The second person tossed the report he had received and said.
“And you think this makes sense!”
The report concluded that it was the work of only one person.
As if making an excuse for the angry second-in-command, a member of the organization said.
“However, when I checked the branches of the annihilated organization, they all suffered the same way. It’s just that one person is like that…”
The second person swallowed his anger and said.
“Then you mean our organization was destroyed by just one person!”
The branch would follow, but the second factor was sure.
It could be concluded that even one person, even a sword master, could not destroy the branch.
“But if it was a group, there would have been movement, but there was no such movement.”
“after···.”
It was just daunting.
The second factor thought about why this had happened.
“Black mercenary Hans… no, Cassias. What is he doing now?”
It was from Lugi Village that he began to feel that something had gone wrong.
The place where the red-haired Otris was killed.
It was the place where the demon of resurrection was summoned.
There, I heard that a man named Hans Reik had thwarted the plan.
“I was just trying to punish…”
suddenly disappeared somewhere.
Because he couldn’t pinpoint the location, he even found out that he had changed his name and was a gladiator at the moment when he was in trouble.
“It must be that guy.”
It should have been punished right then.
But it disappeared again.
I tried to find out about him through the information vendor, but there was no way to know the information.
Because information is tied up.
It was also tied at the imperial family.
“Yes, now I am convinced.”
Hans Like.
The second-in-command was convinced that he was the culprit behind all of this.
How on earth was he able to pinpoint the location of the branch?
There was only one answer.
‘There is a traitor. I’ll have to do a purge sooner or later.’
said the second person.
“Where do you think you will be attacked next?”
“In chronological order, it is most likely the branch in the city of Pepero, next to the Forast branch of the Holy Empire of Epia, near Forast of the Holy Empire of Epia.”
“Is that so… call the local branch immediately and tell them to dig a trap and wait.”
“All right.”
Anyway, the second-in-command began to think about how to weed out the traitor.
“At times like this, I should definitely go to the boss.”
To the second-in-command, the boss was an absolute person who did not know anything.
The second-in-command thought that if he got advice from the boss, he would be able to pass on this task.
“I’m sure… you said you were going to the Theosaia Ruins in the Mycenaerian Empire.”
It was a place that would take time to return to the organization, so the second person decided to wait calmly.
***
The day before arriving at Theojaia Ruins, I had an ominous dream.
It wasn’t exactly my dream.
Cassias, the former owner of the exorcism sword.
It was a dream in which the demon he faced and defeated appeared.
‘Perhaps Cassias was weaker than I am now when I faced that demon.’
However, I was defeated too easily by that demon.
In Cassias’ memory, it was clear that the devil was more than a sword master.
“Then why did I suddenly have this dream?”
For some reason, it was ominous.
“It must be a dog dream.”
I just dismissed it as a dream and passed it on.
After all, a long-awaited trip cannot be wrapped up in an ominous mood because of a dream like this.
“It’s a bit early, but.”
I woke up an hour earlier than we were supposed to meet in the morning.
To change my mind, I decided to take Haru for a morning walk.
“Harya!”
I forcibly woke up Har, who was still in the dream world.
I left the inn with a slightly grumbling Har.
It was still dark dawn outside.
“A walk like this is good. Right, Harya?”
Haru yawned loudly, disapprovingly.
Still, Haru followed me.
Walking at a brisk pace made me feel better.
By the time we finished our walk, the day was bright.
From nob le mt l. co m
Now it’s time to wash up and get ready to leave.
“You said it was about an hour away, right?”
An hour away, the ruins of Theojaia await.
I quickly washed my body and waited for Ephinia at the entrance of the inn.
Eventually, Ephinia came down, and together we headed for Theosaia Ruins.
***
“wow···.”
Admiration came out of nowhere.
The ruins were a legacy of the past.
That’s why I thought I’d put up with a certain amount of countrymanship.
But the site of Theojaia was different.
It was an old-fashioned place with no countryliness at all.
“It sure deserves to be popular.”
Old buildings were rising.
While inspecting the buildings, some of them were familiar to the eye.
‘uh···?’
These were the buildings seen in Cassias’ memories.
It’s not exactly that building, but it was a building of a similar style.
that is so.
‘Were these buildings made during the time of Cassias?’
At the same time, it felt great.
I don’t know what it looked like when it was first discovered, but it was that it was perfectly implemented.
“Suhar, wait for me!”
If Ephinia had business to do, she disappeared somewhere.
Left alone, I looked around a bit more.
Then I suddenly got chills.
Instinct frantically began to sound the alarm.
‘What is this, this awkward feeling…’
That feeling was something that should never have been here.
That eerie feeling exuded by Magi.
I took a quick look around.
And I found a man.
One man smiled at me and then disappeared.
I hurriedly grabbed the people around me and said.
“If there is a woman here who seems to be looking for someone, please tell me that I have an urgent matter and have left first. By the way, my name is Suhar.”
And immediately followed the trail left by the man.
He was a man who left a mark properly, as if he were telling me to follow him.
and reached the mountain.
It was obviously daytime, so it was dark even though it should be bright.
I looked around at the place where the trail was cut off.
The man was nowhere to be seen.
“Where are you!”
Even though I called out, it only echoed, but the man did not appear.
I took a deep breath and looked around.
Then, he caught a place where he felt a sense of heterogeneity and immediately blew a big wave there.
Biggie, which flew correctly, disappeared in vain.
And there, a man appeared.
“That sword and the power I feel from you… I guess I should say it’s been a while.”
It was clear that the man knew Cassias and the exorcism sword.
