Capital Scramble-2
The imperial palace had never been set on fire. Whether invaded by a foreign enemy or a rebellion breaks out. Has there ever been a time when I have been so burned through the thick protective wall protected by magical powers? Some said that the dragon was resurrected. Some said that the god of the moon was angry and that the imperial family was in trouble.
Mirazen didn’t really deny that. Isn’t it true that the evil dragon was resurrected and that it was ruined? Being able to escape from the imperial palace was close to a miracle.
Hearing that Robert died, he protested that he would go crazy and got out. Mirazen, who touched her heart for a moment, quietly looked out of the carriage.
“I wouldn’t have been able to get out without the church’s help. How can I thank you for this?”
“There is no need for thanks. Everything is said by the saintess, so when you reach the north, speak directly.”
I knew right away that my brother was no longer the person he used to be. It was great that it reminded me of Robert. The Keitel I met there was strange no matter how I looked at it. You’d be a fool or an idiot if you didn’t see and notice that.
My head hurt. Even if I don’t think Robert is really dead, if the rumors are true. I tried to contact him, but after thinking about it several times, I finally stopped. probably alive I just believed that he would definitely be alive.
“For those of you currently in the imperial palace-”
It was the pope himself who was facing him. The cult that worships the moon itself decided to flee to the north. Since the saintess was also there in the first place, the church did not hesitate to evacuate. What the pope carefully asks is the existence inside the crown prince.
Now it seems like he’s trying not to hide himself completely. Mirazen let out a small sigh and nodded in reply.
“Probably the dragon is right. That should be enough to create the flames to burn down the imperial palace.”
Although the capital has never been breached, there have been several rebellions. However, the reason the imperial palace survived was because of the magic field that protected the palace itself. The fact that it was pierced meant that the protective shield the moon god himself had created was broken. Even if he was the one who would do such a thing, what else could there be other than the evil dragon?
“Huh.”
The pope let out a quiet sigh, but nothing changed. There would be only one way to break through this reality. catch a dragon But by what means? I couldn’t be sure of anything now that the power of God was weak. If there was anything at all, it would be Robert Taylor, but the Church, which had not fully grasped his power, could not help but feel uneasy.
“There must have been demons in this subjugation party. Robert said that, so you’ll get a feel for what’s going on when you get to the north.”
“I hope everything goes well, but…”
By the time the probability of that happening was low, everyone in the carriage knew.

“For now, we must advance straight to the capital. There is not much time left to delay.”
I knew at least that it was the energy of the artifact embedded in my chest, and that its influence on me had intensified. Adele also nodded in affirmation. Adrian knew that even if my words were dangerous, they were not wrong.
The dragon is surely resurrected. maybe you already did Since three days have already passed since I woke up, I can’t stay here any longer with the excuse of rest. Move to the dimensional door in the Wall Tower, but delay the movement of soldiers as much as possible.
Me, Adele, Adrian, and my lieutenants move first, and then the soldiers move to the capital to recover.
Since I had made up my mind about this in advance, all the people who would have missed it were missing. It would be safe to say that all the remaining people prepared for the decisive battle with the evil dragon. We must prepare for a decisive battle with the dragon. Adele and Adrian didn’t seem to want to vomit at my move either.
If there was a problem, it would be Miragen, but even that was solved to some extent with the urgent report that arrived yesterday.
“Is Her Highness the Princess coming this way?”
“That’s right. Because I got in touch with the pope earlier.”
There was plenty of room for a positive view of the denomination in the capital coming here. Now, does the status of a traitor have any meaning? However, the church was important to what people thought of us. It’s funny that you’re already thinking about the future after catching the dragon.
What can I do?
If you can’t catch the dragon, there’s nothing. There is nothing left and no one who can survive. It would be a step towards the end. So it’s best to think positively as much as possible. Catching the dragon is my role. Dealing with the rest of the demons is also my job.
The good news is that dealing with the demons won’t be as difficult as before. The realization I felt while facing the goddess of the moon and the realization that I had cultivated in the imagery space definitely took me one step further.
I can’t compare it to the old days when I was proud of simply reaching the tip of the sword. The Minotaur, to the point where he was confident that he would end it once again if he met him. Of course, it was something I felt alone, and Adele and Adrian looked at me with quite a bit of concern.
It must be clear that it can be resolved with a few words. Still, not knowing what would happen if I stayed still, people left and slowly opened their mouths in the quiet room.
“Aren’t you worried too much? If anyone sees it, I’m sure you’re looking at someone who will die any second.”
“It’s natural to worry, he’s already died once. That too… in front of me.”
Having said that, I have nothing to say. Again, he lightly grabbed Adele’s shoulder, who was trying to blame herself, and smiled slightly.
“It won’t happen again. Shall we at least make a promise?”
When I raised Adele’s hand and intertwined her little fingers, Adele, startled, tried to step back. Of course they didn’t send it. It was only after I prevented her from avoiding her fingers and lightly twisted them that she finally relaxed. Adele, who had been looking at her tied fingers, frowned slightly.
Of course you won’t like it. She would know better that these far-fetched promises would have no effect. However, I wanted to do it anyway. That way you will have the motivation to do anything. It was just a matter of making up my own resolve.
“…This doesn’t mean that a person who will die will come back alive.”
“grandee.”
As Adrian bruised, Adele sighed and turned her gaze to me. I remembered the first time we met. Exactly in this life. At that time, I only read interest in the eyes that were looking at me, but now it was very funny to see only worry.
When he slowly brushed his cheek, he tilted his head and burst into laughter at his puppy-like appearance. Who else but me knows that the grand duke is doing this? If I had a little more time, I would have said more things, if I had the time. I would have left a more reliable promise.
When I dropped my hand, Adele seemed to have guessed what I was about to do. It didn’t take long for the shadowy expression on his face to clear up. I have to leave. Now to the ecliptic, to catch the dragon.
It would be nice if we could meet Mirazen and go together. Suddenly, I turned my head towards a sign that I felt far away. Mirazen and the Pope were clearly heading in this direction. Even if you look around, there’s nothing dangerous, so you can leave as it is and face the evil dragon.
“It’s better to start together,”
“It is better for me to go first alone. In the first place, it doesn’t look like the evil dragon will show up.”
The four dragons will first deal with the demons they are in charge of, and only then reveal themselves. I’ve already wasted quite a bit of time. The ecliptic might have collapsed completely. In order to save people even a little bit… After all, it was right for me to go first. When you hold the sword Mirazen gave you, a blue sword body appears.
It was definitely different. If this is enough, you won’t be defeated by the demons. Adrian and Adele look at me. I know how the two of you are sending me. So, I will definitely come back alive. don’t die Are you tired of dying over and over again?
“I’m coming.”
that buck
He took an unusually heavy step and headed forward. nobody answered him I didn’t say anything anymore because I felt like my emotions would explode if I parted my lips. Break through the stillness. Crossing the silent hallway, past the soldier staring at me.
There was no one waiting in the portal where Adrian came. Maybe it’s because he came over to Adrian Hall? No one knew when this portal would collapse, as the entire Church came over. I closed my eyes as I looked at the portal that was flooded with blue light.
If you reach the ecliptic as soon as you cross over, you should head to the imperial palace and deal with the demons first.
Refine your plan in your head. A plan I’ve thought about many times since I was in the mental space, things I can do if I’ve reached the stage. When I opened my eyes, my heart, which had been pounding and beating, had calmed down before I knew it.
catch your breath Taking a step, I threw myself into the portal with my cold mind.
And when you open your eyes
What unfolded before my eyes was the basement of the church. In a space where Adrian and I had visited once, broken pieces of rosarios were scattered in one corner. As I bent my knees and touched it, a somewhat familiar feeling rose up. Did Adrian write it?
I put the piece into my chest with a laugh that escaped from exhaustion. Let’s think of it as a talisman, right before the battle. Because I could do anything to calm my mind. The hand that touched the sword trembled unnaturally.
“it’s okay.”
In the end everything will be fine There is no tragedy in the future. Aren’t all the tragedies he’s experienced over and over 100 lives invented by the dragons? The road I am walking now was the one I stepped on to erase it. As I mumbled that it was okay several times, I felt my senses become more sensitive.
There was a sound that my ears could pick up.
There was the sound of something burning, and when they came out of the basement, what they saw was dusk. It’s a good time to say that it’s already night, but the sun that hasn’t set yet eats up the light of the moon. The starry darkness dissipated, leaving only the blood-stained sky visible.
Looking at the burning flames and the completely ruined church, he drew his sword.
“…No. 101.”
wanted to die I decided to die to end everything completely. Wasn’t everything I wished for eternal rest? The corners of his lips twisted, creating a natural smile. Because I thought death was the only way to end life as a comedy. I was always heading toward death.
It’s different now.
Because I want life, there are too many people to protect. I can no longer die by my own choice. If I looked at it when I had just returned, wouldn’t I say that living is a tragedy? The light from the drawn sword stretched towards the sky. A radiance covered the red sky, bringing it back to blue for a moment.
It was a signal to inform the dragon that I had come. Perhaps now he knew for sure, that I had come back alive.
100 tragedies.
All of them were just pieces needed for a single ending. It was time to move on.
mine, ours. Toward the 101st ending.
