189 – Side Story – Their Story – 5

“Hee, hee hee. Hee hee.”

Lucille smiled at Wheelort, who was smirking in the carriage.

“With Lu. Lucille. Hehe. It’s good to go like this. It’s good.”

Stuffing the high-quality cookies, Wheeloth took up a large seat at will and laughed. Lucille nodded at her and looked out the window while reading the report.

The battlefield was getting closer and closer.

– Hee hee hee!!

The carriage stops. What can be seen outside is the soldiers’ camp. There was someone to meet there.

“Yo, yo, going to meet the hero, are you, are you?”

Wheelot, who was messing around with cookies, asked reluctantly, but Lucille just nodded.

“You may stay here, Lord Wheelort.”

“Nope…”

It was a really reluctant expression, but Wheelort hesitated and rose from his seat. Seeing her like that, Lucille smiled.

In the past, he, like Wheeloth, was reluctant to meet a hero.

There’s nothing special about it now.

How long did he have to wait after getting off the wagon and entering the garrison?

A beautiful woman with orange hair walked into the barracks.

“…It’s been a while. Queen.”

“Yes. Long time no see. Warrior.”

Lucille smiled softly at the hero Claire.

When presented with tea and sweets used in the royal family, Claire stared at them in silence. Since the sage left, Claire, who has not been on the battlefield for a while, must have had a luxury item like this for the first time in a while.

Even so, she just looked at it bitterly and chewed on the memories.

“They refused to invite me every year from the royal family. I had no choice but to come here.”

“Because the situation on the battlefield always changes rapidly. You can’t just leave your seat.”

“I see. Thank you on behalf of the kingdom.”

“…So? What are you doing here?”

Lucille handed out the materials she had taken out of her bosom to Claire, who was asking for the main topic. Claire looked at it gently and let out a heavy sigh.

“It’s an anomaly that occurs on the continent… Among these, I know a little bit.”

“I thought so. It also happens on the battlefield, right?”

Apparently, the place where the monsters originated was completely eliminated, but when I went the next day, the monsters reappeared.

I thought it was a powerful monster, but it was absurdly easy to die.

These were the problems that arose after the sage left.

“Actually, these are minor issues that you wouldn’t even notice if you weren’t paying attention. Do you really need to check them?”

“I am a disciple of a wise man.”

Claire glanced at the rainbow wand in Lucille’s hand and closed her eyes.

The weight of the name of the wise man was pressing down on Claire’s chest.

“…That’s right. Since it’s Hyeonu’s disciple…”

“If I want to follow Master’s will and become a new sage… I must do what Master did.”

“…okay.”

Heavy air fills the barracks. The two beauties stared at each other wordlessly, and it was Claire who broke the silence.

“Something like this happens.”

“Is that… what is it?”

“It’s a story about a multiplying pond.”

Claire told me rumors floating around the battlefield.

There was a soldier who was being chased by monsters.

The soldier, frantically running away, hid himself in a forest, then found a small pond and ducked down to fill his canteen.

Then, the string came loose and the helmet fell into the pond.

“It means that the helmet was stretched in two.”

“Yes. At first they thought it was a joke. But if you look at the markings on the helmet, they say it was two helmets.”

“Can I see him?”

“He was discharged the year before last, and rumors say he’s already dead. They say it was a carriage accident. He survived the battlefield, but never thought he’d die in the safety of a city…”

“…I see. Then what about that helmet?”

“That can be verified.”

Claire asked the soldier outside, and after a while the soldier came in with two completely identical helmets in his hand.

Marks engraved on the helmet, things like scribbles.

The handwriting, the colors, everything matches.

Even with the eyes of Lucille, the great wizard, they could not be distinguished at all.

“What about that pond?”

“I don’t know. After hearing the soldier’s words, I tried to look for him, but…”

The pond did not exist. No, originally, there was no forest where the soldier went.

“I entered a place that does not exist… What is it?”

Lucille recalled the details of the Kingdom’s intelligence department’s investigation. ten years ago. Since the disappearance of the Sage, there have been quite a few stories of people entering and leaving places that did not exist in this way.

Maybe this has something to do with it?

And maybe.

The place where the wise man and Veronica left.

Could it be that it has something to do with it?

Thoughtful, Lucille nodded.

“Thank you for good information.”

“I’m glad I helped the princess. But I…”

“…I haven’t found Master yet.”

“…I see. I wish you success.”

After that, Lucille and Claire said goodbye without saying a word and parted ways.

When Lucille left, Claire let out a heavy sigh.

More than ten years have passed since Hyeonu left.

He left with his wife in search of his own happiness, and he decided to bless it.

However, it is inevitable that I still feel as if a corner of my heart has been pierced.

Claire hit her ball a few times and stood up.

Like Lucille, she is also a person who has inherited the will of the wise.

so.

“…I’ll have to do what I have to do.”

To stabilize the battlefield and prevent chaos on the continent.

Claire knew very well that it was the only thing she could do.

Research did not stop.

There were times when he was blocked, and there were times when he wanted to despair, but Lucille couldn’t give up.

“ha…”

Wheelot cautiously approached Lucille, who sighed helplessly.

“I. There. This. You know.”

“Yes?”

“Aren’t you… overdoing it…?”

Lucille laughed helplessly at the tone full of worries.

I was still doing my own research.

It is unfortunate that there is no progress.

Of course, research and analysis on the anomalies occurring on the continent are continuing, and the analysis of the cause of quite a large part has been completed.

Because I knew that such a phenomenon would occur under the condition that certain actions, equipment, or people with skills performed certain actions.

Tapping the report that organized them, Lucille laughed.

“Stories about non-existent places will also be analyzed. And the Soulstone…”

“But… Ah. And Osina is doing better than I thought.”

I couldn’t continue my research while continuing the Queen’s work. In particular, there were too many of her servants who were worried that Lucille was not getting married. That’s why Lucille, who picked a talented child from the royal family and made her the heir, put Wheelott in charge of her education.

The teacher of the next queen?

Wheelot was delighted to be given the position that the sage had held in the past, but he did not stop worrying about Lucille, who was no different from his disciple.

That’s why I was helping Lucille in my spare time while educating.

“You. Too. Don’t overdo it.”

“Yes. Thank you, Mr. Wheelort.”

“Uh hee hee hee…”

So, together with Wheelot, Lucille read the report again.

problems on the continent.

As she calmly read the reports of anomalies once again, she felt something passing through her head.

“Huh? Wait a minute.”

Would this be possible?

Lucille was well aware of the great results that a single flash of light could bring to research. That’s why she quickly wrote formulas and theories on the wall so as not to miss it, and filled the huge wall with formulas, theories, and hypotheses, and she gulped as she watched them.

“What. What. What… ha. Doing. Hey?”

perhaps.

Maybe under this condition.

It might be possible to summon a ‘place that does not exist’ here.

Swallowing, she raised her rainbow wand and Cosmo’s wand.

Two unique equipment, plus scrolls and materials.

They use them to create a magic circle and to use mana.

and. and.

While unraveling by integrating everything she had studied so far, she took up the towel.

If it goes wrong, it can be dangerous, so the details should be erased.

After erasing all the formulas and theories engraved on the wall, Lucille closed her eyes and placed them on top of the magic circle she created.

She raised the soul stone.

If this unknown power and the magic he created were combined.

maybe it is possible

“Whoa…”

If it goes according to the theory he thought, it will be activated.

Swallowing her saliva, she infused magic into the magic circle.

At that moment, the refreshing scent of the forest began to waft through her lab.

“Hee. Heeik?!”

“…This…”

The place where the wall had been before had been blown open.

The forest is there.

Obviously, the laboratory is in the basement of the palace, but why is there a forest there?

Lucille swallowed and opened the door to the lab.

The door was connected to the palace. Then, that forest.

“…a non-existent forest.”

Lucille swallowed her saliva and took the soul stone and went into the forest.

Is it because of the soul stone in his hand? A road was being built where her feet could reach.

At the center of the forest that has advanced so far is a pond.

Lucille swallowed and dropped the soul stone in her hand into the pond.

And when I picked it up and returned to the lab.

There was another soul stone in the lab.

and.

[under…]

“…who?!”

Lucille was frightened by the voice in her head and raised her wand.

This is a secret area among the secrets even in the royal palace.

It is the laboratory of the archmage, and also the secret wife of the queen.

The voice of an unauthorized person in such a place.

before her tense eyes.

A halo of light appeared.

what is that light

Lucille knew.

[No, how did you touch it to create a creation bug instead of a copy bug? And at least the copy bug can’t be fixed properly, so why not hide it here? under. It’s a really cool game… I can’t help but admire it. Are you doing this on purpose to f*ck me…? It wasn’t like that when Robert was the team leader in the past… Ha. Hire a really good tester…]

There was a lot of annoyance in his voice.

The atmosphere made Lucille and Wheelot nervous.

They didn’t know what the light in front of their eyes was, but they knew that they were powerful beings that they couldn’t even deal with.

While they were holding their breath, the mass of light continued to grumble and then stopped talking for a moment.

[…ah. That would be nice.]

“…Who are you.”

Lucille, who was very nervous, was as polite as possible. I was stunned by the majesty of the being shining in front of my eyes.

Towards her, the mass of light relaxed its annoyed tone and spoke calmly.

[I’ve been watching you. Lucille. Oh my gosh. I didn’t know you could make it this far.]

“…Who are you. You. And with Master… no.”

Lucille pursed her lips in thought before asking.

“…Creator God… are you?”

[What. You can see it as a similar existence.]

“…Did you take Master…?”

[Rather than taking him, I sent him back to his original world.]

original world?

It’s complicated in my head.

But the important thing is that God is in front of his eyes, and he is the one who sent the sage, his teacher, to another world.

Then, why did this person appear in front of his eyes?

A person who had never appeared even once when investigating all kinds of problems and anomalies in the world.

Lucille immediately realized why.

“…Is this because of it?”

In her hands are two soul stones.

When this changed, God appeared.

[Yes. Oh… you’re Song Hyeon-woo’s disciple. Master or disciple the same way… tsk. like. What do you want?]

“…Yes?”

[What is wrong with the world you have found out so far. and its causes and conditions. And… the principle of copying the soul stone.]

“……”

[I will grant you a wish in return. ruler. tell me.]

Lucille felt her mind wander. However, the reason why he did not lose his mind must be because of the ‘wish’ he said.

“…I want to visit where Master is.”

[Hmmm…]

Your voice sounds happy.

It seems as if he is delighted that Lucille moved as he wanted.

[You want a gate that connects to where he is? why?]

“that…”

[He is not from this world, and he is also married. But what are you going to do when we meet again?]

“…I just want to see Master again. Not that I specifically want to be his wife. Just. Just…”

[Don’t do that. How about this? I’ll give you the dragon god’s staff. otherwise oh How about this one? Voila! These are luminous wings!]

“…wow. wow. dog cool”

Wheelot admired the large wings that came out of the mass of light.

But Lucille just smiled and watched, and the mass of light pushed her wings and wand into the light.

[Even if you make a gate for what you have found out now, you will have to pay a considerable price to use it.]

“Ha. One thing. One thousand. Nothing. You can ask me. Can I…?”

[of course.]

“If. tongue. sage is. crab. gate? opens. sage. be. veronica. can. come back…?”

[Well… not impossible. But are they going to come? Did you go through that hardship?]

“If it’s a passable gate…”

[One, no, five secrets of the world as a gate toll.]

“…Yes?”

[Lucille. The secrets of the world you have discovered, and the things that went wrong and need to be fixed. I’ll take five of them each time I use the gate. Do you still want to?]

Lucille closed her eyes tightly.

It will never be easy.

So far, we have discovered and analyzed the causes of at most twenty or so cases.

That’s what I found in close to ten years, but I get five of them?

[So let’s just get one glowing wing and finish it.]

The desire to give up overflows.

However.

It couldn’t be.

So, Lucille shook her head, and the mass of light spoke in a joyful tone.

[good! It’s great! If so, I’ll make it…]

– Whoops.

The wall connected to a non-existent place disappears and the wall is colored with light along with a low vibrating sound.

The mass of light spoke towards it in a tone full of excitement.

[Try hard to earn a toll.]

After that, the mass of light disappears.

[Tester honey.]
