Wow! Big Adventures of Each (5)
Frederick stared at the old man. Red eyes like wine were silent.
A long cloak fell under the throne, and Durandal, who had not yet cut anyone, was by his side.
For a while there was only the noise outside the barracks between them.
Even that was the heart of the camp, so it wasn’t noisy.
Elizabeth, seated like a statue, stood guard behind the cardinal.
“·················ogue.”
The holy stone beads in the palm of her hand radiated a friendly energy as if soothing them.
The headache seemed to subside again. The emperor slowly opened his mouth.
“What if Jim doesn’t want it?”
“Then I am not here today. You should back down as if you were a coward who didn’t say anything. Just like it used to be.”
Cardinal Ari Shahod answered, slowly standing up. The prince frowned slightly.
From an early age, she had no interest in speaking backwards, nor did she like socialite metaphors or fan language.
My mother used to say that I resemble my father.
But apparently, this was a trait she had inherited from her grandfather, Romero Lister.
Soon, a husky warning sounded.
“If you’re going to talk to Jim, you’d better make a direct sentence. This body is a simple man.”
“Heh heh heh.”
It was a prickly joke. Ari smiled and looked at the king.
There was a subtle light in the eyes that resembled hazelnuts.
Frederic had an intuition that his next story would contain very important information.
It was the instinct of an old-fashioned beast.
“The old man was reckless. I will uphold Your Majesty’s will.”
“·················ogue.”
“You are the companion of Cardinal Boutier. You probably don’t know what ‘neutral’ means in the Vatican. Usually it refers to a group of priests who are not lined up with either the Empire or the New Kingdom.”
He opened his mouth with a stick. The emperor waited for the backstory without a response.
Her wrinkled eyes became blurry as if drawing a past.
“But, in reality, those who are neutrals suffer from constant persecution and oppression. I am often criticized for having my voice heard properly even in trivial matters. Especially on the Penetian side… There is a lot of pressure like that.”
The old man narrowed his eyes slightly. Frederick’s forehead was wrinkled.
She was a ruler who had little interest in the Vatican, and the immediate imperial family had been taught that it was right from generation to generation.
The Holy See was a completely independent institution.
Moreover, Lister did not collect religious taxes or sow any money there.
He was active in the necessary lobbying, but did not intend to dominate the Vatican.
Since the paladin was not born, such a task was fundamentally impossible.
The old age flowed like an old brook.
“This is not a year or two. The New Kingdom has been such a country for a very long time. They forced their faith on those who knew nothing, used it as a weapon, and even used it as a means of domination.”
“·················ogue.”
“Those years have reached a thousand years. Most of the people are still ignorant of religion to this day. It is believed that His Majesty the King and his children are like gods. Our neutrals are… It is a gathering of old people who are tired of such history. They are wanderers who have voluntarily abandoned their nationality.”
“Rebels?”
The Emperor asked a blatant question.
The old man tapped the cane with his fingertips and gave a pleasant expression.
“It would be great if you had the power to do that. It’s okay.”
A short light flashed across his tired eyes. He was over eighty, and he still had an unstoppable corner.
He did not budge even to a dangerous question, and responded with an even more dangerous answer.
Frederic tilted his head, and the old man bowed his head.
“Your power is strong and great, Your Majesty. It is difficult to break the solid belief of the whole with a few powerful nobles. We are all broken eggs that hit rocks at one time or another.”
“·················ogue.”
“For example, King Lilianer put great effort into the deification of the royal family. The temple’s function of education for commoners was greatly reduced, and those who opposed it were ruled by treason. It is said that he did it for the conscription of new officers and the unification of the national opinion. It was not in the right direction.”
“If you want to criticize your king, you don’t have to talk to me.”
The emperor pointed low. It was a call to stop talking about it.

On the one hand, it was also a signal that he was ready to hear the cardinal’s ‘information’.
Ari smiled kindly. He truly gave everything he had to come here.
To a warlord’s granddaughter and a pacifist, fierce-blooded and cold-hearted.
This was perhaps the last chance to revive the dying faith.
“…we, the neutral old men, hold a council once a quarter. In an era in the absence of the Holy Father, it is a frivolous tea party where not even the chieftain is present.”
“Give it a try. Was that yesterday?”
“You are truly brilliant.”
The emperor snorted, and the cardinal sighed softly.
Elizabeth was worried that an old man like an old tree might fall.
He slowly opened his mouth.
“And we . . . We reached out to His Majesty for help and agreed to give us the information we needed. It was a long meeting.”
“Ask for help?”
“Yes. I am begging you to save the dying Penethian.”
Frederic had a genuinely confused look on his face after a while.
He even furrowed his eyebrows in annoyance.
The lieutenant colonel looked at the old man in awe.
Unfortunately, he didn’t seem crazy at all. What does all this mean?
“Do you mean that you will entrust the rebellion of your dreams to me?”
“You could put it that way, Your Majesty. I will not dare to deny it. However, what we ultimately want is ‘neutral’. It’s a minimal balance and order.”
“·················ogue.”
“It is regrettable that it is a thing of the past that the nobles of the royal family regard religion as a political instrument. It would be shameless to try to overturn this foundation through His Majesty. This is the sole task of Penetian.”
“·················ogue.”
“But today it is not the royal family that rules the new kingdom.”
– Exactly!
The holy stone beads in the emperor’s hand collided sharply.
The cardinal vomited with dry lips.
“Decades have passed since Duke Sneijder devoured the land, scarecating his maddening Majesty and his daughters. Penetian was unable to examine himself, unable to reflect, and thus became a barren land from which he could not even take a step forward…”
“Oh my gosh.”
Elizabeth sighed and covered her mouth with her hand.
The emperor recalled the number of cases with an expressionless expression.
Wilhelmina Sneijder, the third son of the Empire, was a person who informs her about the royal family and the royal road from time to time.
It is said that the role of ganja began in the age of the duke’s father.
In short, she was one of the many legacy that Mohuang left me.
But it was a rotten apple.
Frederic had never ordered any interference or overthrow of the new country’s internal affairs.
His sharp eyes narrowed like a needle.
No one knows yet which side the stomach will fall on.
“According to what is being said, she is ubiquitous. Also nowhere. It is said that in just one generation, it permeates all over the new country and no one feels awkward. Only those who look into the new kingdom from the outside perceive the looming inconsistency.”
“It’s like God.”
The emperor spoke the truth bluntly. The cardinal agreed with an old and familiar despair.
“Yes. We had hope until the very end, but… I found out when I heard the news that the poor prince had passed away. The fact that there is no one in the land to hold the reins.”
“There must be a grown-up Crown Princess.”
“Ahh. The Lord does not care for him.”
‘Kyrie, eleison.’ He prayed like he was sick in an old new language.
Frederic interpreted Old Gong’s religious sentences in extremely realistic terms.
‘Elisher Penethian does not have the right power.’
Moreover, if I had grown up under such a father and aunt.
If I had lived with my brother who endured death and my mother who went crazy, I could see the gore that didn’t know anything…
‘You haven’t changed a bit.’
“I’m glad you didn’t give up.”
The emperor murmured, recalling last summer.
It would have been more convenient to let go of your hands and get dyed.
Theoretically, it would have been ‘clean’ for everyone.
However, the reason why he was unable to do so was because the young man resembled his mother or grandfather’s temperament.
She never knew.
Frederic recognized that he had been brought up in a very affluent environment.
“So, please…. I advise you not to get caught up in the number of peacocks. Among them, I would like to say that you should pay special attention to the Trosart Mountains. You will most likely lose your strength there before going inland.”
“What happened to Trosart?”
Elizabeth, who had been listening quietly, asked abruptly. Confusion and worry flashed across the young man’s face.
Although she deeply cared for Cedric, she did not follow him to fulfill her duty of aide to the emperor.
Director Bakari accompanied them, but the two did not have a very close relationship.
After losing the prince, Sedric completely closed the door to his heart.
Now he was practically alone.
“There are many demons.”
“ah······. If that’s the case, that’s fine. His Majesty the Crown Prince is the winner of the Great Beast Subjugation. With the elite army,”
“And there are some very mysterious caves.”
Ari said as she turned to Elizabeth. The prosecutor was startled.
“A cave? Are you talking about the dungeon?”
“It’s a similar cave, but a lot worse than that. If the beasts from all over the mountain range entered there and avoided themselves… No one can catch it. After that, they evolve into even stronger monsters.”
“yes?”
“What did you say?”
Frederic’s voice shone. It was a golden door.
Except for those who had fled to the Empire, none of the three remaining in the new kingdom had ever given her this kind of information.
So, if not a lie, this was Penetian’s top secret.
said the cardinal, wiggling his wand.
“When a low-level beast enters, it turns into an intermediate-level beast of the same species and appears. It is said that when the intermediate level goes in, the advanced level appears, and in rare cases, the legendary level appears when the advanced level hides. There is no way Duke Sneijder would be unaware of this. He must have written down the numbers.”
“Oh my gosh. Is that true?”
“If your Majesty orders it, I will make a covenant.”
“·················ogue.”

Oh my god Frederick took a deep breath and wrapped his forehead.
The ether in the marble swirled and looked at her.
The warm golden tail was at first a beige color.
‘don’t worry. It will be fine.’ It was as if he could hear a voice saying that from right next to him.
none is fine Besides, you’re going to buy it again.
“Elizabeth, pick the five fastest horses and immediately send them forward. It is said that the battle with the beast must end with a kill. Gather all your staff and report the situation to Duke Cecil Blanquer in the rear. Also to Francois. I need to get expert advice.”
“I’ll take your name!”
The dark green bob moved like a sword. Ripples began to form in the emperor’s eyes.
Somehow, it’s been so easy so far.
*
I’ll tell you today.
just now. right now.
I can’t live like this.
-Pumpkin, squash, squash…
“Hey, Heineken! Are you going back to work?”
“No, Titania-sama. I have something to tell you for a moment. Sorry for not being able to help.”
I nodded and greeted each other with a thick straw bag.
Then the villagers of Honing, who were shoveling in full swing, smiled while waving their hands.
“Aww! We’re almost done, it’s enough for us. Say goodbye and come!”
“If you come, let’s have dinner together. I want to bake potatoes.”
“Yes, Fino. Eat first and rest.”
These days, they have been working hard on excavating the ‘Sword of the Lord’ that has been embedded around the military base.
It was originally a handyman for Imperial soldiers, and the residents had no reason to approach it because they got skin diseases after touching it.
However, it was confirmed that there was no problem as long as the sword was not touched with bare hands.
Also, according to the wizards, it was safer to touch and wrap your hands with ‘paper’ rather than leather.
From then on, everyone worked in cotton-paper-covered thumb gloves.
It was even cute because the children drew various pictures on the outside.
“I’ll go uncle. Don’t run around.”
“yes!”
Khun, who had clean skin and was not even wearing a mask, shouted out loud.
The child, who was lucky enough to even meet a healing priest, is now in good shape with no pain.
I looked at him and smiled, then headed straight to the center of the military camp.
It was refreshing to say hello to good people.

Okay, let’s get back to the basics. Let’s not sleep and live.
It’s better to sell first, and the sooner you reveal it, the better for me.
As time passes, the fear only increases.
If I said the worst, would it be nothing more than being imprisoned for the rest of my life and being pulled out of the ether?
·······Don’t be afraid.
“Hello, Volunteer!”
“hello.”
“female! It’s late, but you’re here!”
“Hello, knight.”
I grabbed my backpack and walked around chatting with familiar faces.
I was about to pack up all my belongings, ready to be kicked out tonight.
I had courage and a crystal bell in my arms (I went back to the barracks that day and was crying a lot by myself).
He wore a cleanly washed cardigan, shirt, and slacks.
There were also people who were surprised by the awkward attire.
But I bet anyone would have acted like me.
‘Is it your ether?’
…if nothing happened for three days.
No, really. I’m afraid I’m going to die!
– Bukkake, bum buck, bum buck
“ha······.”
This time, I thought I would be caught unconditionally.
It would have been better if he had been dragged along with Viscount Trosart.
Because that day I won no matter how I thought about it.
A prisoner of the new kingdom who escaped from the broken prison and a commoner trembling pathetic by his side.
Two tolls of unidentified ether. Plus, this one matched Prince Jesse’s sound.
how did that happen again?
The fact that Elissa didn’t say anything to me at dinner means that the prince and I have the same voice!
“Oh, it hurts.”
why didn’t i think of that Did you mean to come and listen to the audiobook?
I rubbed my sore forehead and walked, looking only at the ground.
We had to do it one at a time.
What is urgent right now is the fact that there has been no change in me since the tyranny of Jeon-ryong 3 days ago.
This was strange for anyone to see.

Of course, Prince Cedric hasn’t been looking for Charlemagne, and that’s why I haven’t met him…
“If I had interrogated the Viscount, the truth would have been revealed. Why are you leaving me alone?”
What are you thinking? What if I? What do you do when you do something bad?
“There is no answer. It’s just rushing.”
I mumbled bitterly and fixed my bag.
I know you’re busy with post-processing, but maybe you just don’t have time to care about a guy like me—
I really can’t stand it like this. I can’t breathe. I can’t even sleep because my feet are numb.
“Find David first, yup!”
puck! A white hand reached out from the barracks alley.
I was dragged into the darkness with my mouth covered in an instant.
Wow, what! His hands are small, but he has a lot of power. uh?
“Shh. Shh!”
Bakari-kun?!
