Episode 124. Cobble Free State (7)
Ariel was confused.
“They became like sword masters and got kidnapped. Even that old man said it was funny when he went there…
Despite what Marlon was saying, Ariel had a hard time admitting that she really fainted for 10 days.
“Anyway, cool down and come down. Because it’s meal time. I’ll tell you what happened while we eat.”
Marlon did not return the pipe and went down to the inn parlor. Ariel sighed calmly as if she had sorted her thoughts out.
Ariel wouldn’t know. That Marlon had stayed by her side almost without sleep, worried about the blue dagger’s bizarre assassination scheme.
Marlon didn’t even tell him, because he didn’t bother to hear that he was grateful.
It was because they thought it was natural for colleagues to protect each other.
‘I fainted for ten days… Yuma’s creation was shocking. I had a hard time teaching him. By the way, the furry was kidnapped?’
Ariel was very displeased with Igor the whole time.
It was because I felt like my mind was being destroyed when I saw the cute snort and cuteness from that hairy giant.
However, when I heard the news that I had been kidnapped, I felt uncomfortable. She found it strange that she cared about a human being other than Yuma or Marlon Zecca.
‘I guess I’ve changed a lot since I started hanging out with them.
What happened in ten days?’
Ariel went straight down to the parlor.
In the drawing room, all the colleagues except for Igor were gathered and looking at the soup on the table. When she comes down, we wait to eat together.
“Are you here right away?”
“I was very worried, Ariel.
I’m glad you woke up safely.”
[Kahak! It’s the master who almost died, so why are you worried about lizards like that!]
But the atmosphere in the drawing room was strange.
This was a fairly large inn in a snoring-free country. There are always more than 50 guests, and most of them are mercenary criminals or former criminal mercenaries.
They, like Yuma and the others, were also out to have breakfast. However, no one was sitting at the table, and everyone was standing at the back of the party, immobile.
“welcome!”
Moreover, they even greeted Ariel as a group. Of course, they were all idiots who quarreled with the party for no reason and didn’t even get their money’s worth.
In the eyes of those wild savages, Yuma and the others were nothing more than prey mixed with girls. Cobble Free State was a wild place.
But it didn’t take half an hour before I realized what the food chain’s supremacy was in the wild, a country free of snoring.
“…Have you had any subordinates?”
“It looks like I got into a fight with Marlon while I was sick and got hit hard.”
“Still, you spit out some pretty useful information. Like when the blue dagger appeared. Anyway, Ariel sit down. Let’s eat. you guys stay away
Quickly catch those blue dando boys.”
“ancient!”
When Marlon gave the order, the bastards dispersed in a hurry.
Those whom Malone described as ‘knapul’ meant those who accepted the request for the blue dagger in the Cobble Free Country. That was the information I got from the bad guys.
While the party ate the soup, Ariel explained everything in detail.
The origin of the case was as follows.
While Ariel fainted at the sight of Yuma’s creation, the three of them were shocked for a while.
However, after realizing that Ariel’s condition was not serious, she returned to training. The fact that it was a simple fainting was reported by Rakir after examining it.
Zecca and Marlon sparred, and Yuma practiced creation, which he believed to be ‘transformation’.
After two more days, the first problem occurred. Suddenly, Yuma collapsed, bleeding profusely from her eyes, nose, mouth and ears.
It was a reflux. on a very serious level.
Now, Malone can say that he ‘nearly went’, but the urgency at the time was unparalleled.
Even Rakir fainted when he saw Yuma flipping his eyes and choking while blood was pouring from all over his body.
While Melina was treating Yuma, Marlon and Zekai Igor comforted each other with tears in their eyes. Of course, Yuma will never know that Marlon and Zecca cried because of him.
In other words, if Milina had no knowledge of medicine, Yuma would have been in a situation where she could not escape death.
A disciple of the King of Knights, a friend of an ogre slayer, a man who will be the eighth grandmaster, a guardian of the East, etc… Yuma’s life, which has been performing miraculous things so far, is almost coming to an end.
However, Milina could not complete the treatment. It was because of the lack of herbs. For this reason, Milina dragged Tulka and went to the free country with Yuma first.
“The problem is that there were no medicinal herbs here in Cobble Free Country. By the time we arrived after them, Sir Milina hadn’t gotten any herbs, and Yuma was getting worse and worse.”
It was unreasonable to seek advanced medical technology or excellent therapists in a snoring-free country. It is easy to find illegal healers or drugs as it is the same country as the end of life.
By the time the rest of the party arrived after Tulka, Milina hadn’t found any herbs. And it was at that point that Igor was kidnapped.
– Aang! Yuma-sama, what are you doing! Well, I guess I’ll have to go to the Jail Church and ask for help. There must be herbs in the temple!
Igor had uttered those words two days ago.
The Free State of Nose was also the home of the blue dagger, but it was originally the site of a Jailism temple. It was Igor, who was once the number 1 captain of the ‘Spear of Light’, an armed group under the direct control of the Zeilgyo.
Of course, Igor remembered not only the location of the temple, but also that there was a warehouse inside which various medicinal materials were piled up. The reason he brought him in the first place was to visit the temple of the Yuga Zeilgyo.
-I’ll be back Aang!
Those were Igor’s last words that the party heard. As soon as Igor left the road, he was kidnapped by the spear of light, an armed group of the Zeil religion.
There was no other reason to say that it was a kidnapping. If you want to save him from the window of light, a note has arrived at the inn telling you to leave this place quietly.
“This is what happened while you passed out. And we made an agreement that rather than leave this place quietly to save this Gor, we would kill him first before they could do anything to Igor.”
“wait for a sec. So you haven’t been able to find herbs? From my point of view, Yuma looks very fine… Am I mistaken?”
Ariel looked at Yuma and said.
It wasn’t just about being fine.
She sensed that the aura she normally felt from Yuma had grown even more.
No, if it had only gotten bigger, the spoon Ariel was holding would not have trembled so sweetly.
‘This guy. Isn’t mana flowing through your body!?’
Mana flows through the body of a human without Hort.
It was impossible.
But within seconds Ariel put down the spoon and started giggling.
In the yard where creation was also done with a human body, it’s funny how much magic power is insignificant]! It was an act that stemmed from a half-desperate feeling.
“The kid is weird. are you still sick? what’s the matter?”
“ha ha ha! Not everyone knows!
That means magic is flowing through Yuma’s body!”
“uh? You say mana flows through my body?”
It was a fact that not everyone knew. Even Rakir was unaware of the magical power riding inside Yuma’s body.
It was inevitable because Yuma’s magic power was far from normal magic power.
To be precise, it was not pure magic, but a mixture of magical properties with aura.
“okay! I don’t even know anymore
How is your body better?
“Oh that’s it. It’s hard to explain in words… I had a similar experience in the past when I trusted my teacher for training. At that time, I drank ogre blood and woke up, but this time I did not drink blood, but at some point a similar sensation came to me.”
Yuma was fully aware of the pain of the aura regurgitation while he was down. Colleagues thought he was completely unconscious.
Should I express that I was feeling pain in my dream? It was a similar feeling to when I first learned the storm.
It was as if the blood vessels throughout his body were repeatedly being torn and glued together, and even Yuma, trained in all sorts of pain in the underworld, could not bear it.
The pain continued, but I couldn’t speak or move like when I was pressed by the scissors, so it was also crazy. From Yuma’s point of view, it was even more problematic because his consciousness was so clear.
Of course, the voices of people outside worried about him could not be heard. Yuma has made several attempts to alleviate the pain while completely disconnecting himself from the world.
“One of them was to cycle the aura, and it worked.
My body was vaguely too hot and painful, so I thought of things like waves or wind and rotated my aura inside my body.”
It was the same way as when he used the creation that threw himself into the backwater.
However, the fact that his creative ability rose to the next level in the process was an area that even Yuma could not have calculated at all.
Unlike outside, where she could only create a single fire and ice crystal, Yuma could create a constantly churning sea within herself or a wind that enveloped everything. Become your own god.
While explaining this process, Yuma smiled awkwardly, as if it was strange even thinking about it.
‘It seems that he unconsciously created the creation through the medium of an aura.
In the first place, humans, this is not the realm of creatures.’
Maybe a god or something more.
Ariel had no choice but to define Yuma that way. Otherwise, that guy would have been the biggest mistake since the world was created.
Even considering that it was an existence outside the realm, it was a law that in the end it could produce a certain level of power. Just as Resol, who can stop the world with magic, cannot create.
“Anyway, right now, my diligence is not important. I have to get Igor back and finish the blue dagger and the Jailgyo.”
Yuma put the soup bowl aside and put a piece of paper on the table. It was a map with a schematic map of Zailgyo. Igor left it.
“First of all, I’m going to cut off the Jailgyo.
In any situation, getting your teammates back comes first. Also, I feel like they have something to do with the blue dagger.”
“That’s right, if you quietly leave here, it’s suspicious that Igor will be spared. when to hit Should I hit it right away?”
“No, I decided to deal with the blue dagger second, but I still have to figure out at least one of them and move. There is an unexpectedly talented person in Jailgyo, but if the blue dagger gets in the way, things get complicated.”
Of course, what Yuma described as an ‘unexpectedly talented person’ meant the archmage Rizol.
If they touch their comrades, Yuma will erase them from the world, no matter what the values of Zeilgyo hold.
And Lot, the high priest of Zeilism, was a person who understood Yuma’s personality to some extent.
Yuma’s judgment was that the reason why Lot kidnapped Igor was most likely because he had a strong background.
“For now, let’s wait for the junkies to bring the tip of the blue dagger.”
