Helmut

Episode 440

“It’s Elaga, right?”

Ygrel snorted.

The Archduke looked strangely at the cat that suddenly bypassed security and appeared in a unique way.

This is a situation that cannot help but be strange. Even if you know it’s Helmut’s cat.

[I heard everything.]

Elaga got down on the floor and raised her head straight.

[Igrel is also walking around, so there’s no reason for me to pretend to be a cat anymore, right?] The

Archduke’s gaze quickly shifted between Elaga and Helmut. I’m half surprised and half asking for an explanation.

Helmut felt like touching his forehead.

I thought I would tell you someday, but this situation came so suddenly.

“It’s basically a cat. “It’s just big.”

Ygrel sarcastically said.

[Shut up, such a weak subject.]

Igrel kept his mouth shut, as if he couldn’t deny those words.

[Rather than that, there really was a hole in the sacred barrier? I was just making an excuse.]

“Are you making an excuse?”

[Yes, the woman who was a high priest or something asked me where I was from, and I said I was from the Forest of Pahe. I told you to take a look because there were a lot of holes in the sacred barrier.]

“Oh, you also fought with the high priest?”

[Lately. Well, it’s nothing special.]

Elaga was showing off and hiding her front paws where the fur had not fully grown.

The pain at that time felt like it was on fire.

It got to the point where I thought it would be better to face someone like Naho again than to come into contact with divine power.

Area organized it.

“Then the temple must know this.”

There was no way I wouldn’t have looked towards the sacred barrier since the monster that was said to have come from the Forest of Pahe was right in front of me.

It was questionable how they would accept this situation. Elaga shrugged.

[As expected, I’m great. I guess I instinctively sensed that there was something wrong with the barrier.]

“It’s probably just a coincidence.”

Even as he muttered, Ygrel wondered if that was the reason he headed to the Forest of Pahe.

The monster’s instincts are powerful.

As my demonic nature developed, I began to control my instincts, but the sense that my instincts gave me developed even further.

‘Then is there any reason for me, a monster, to feel ominous? ‘There’s nothing bad about me because the sacred barrier is gone, right?’

It may be a crisis for humans, but it is not a big deal for Ygrel, who reigned in the Forest of Pahe.

When the conversation reached a lull for a moment, the Archduke spoke heavily towards Helmut.

“…I think I need to explain for a moment. Helmut, why did your monster, and not your cat, fight the high priest?”

Even after hearing the shocking story, he maintained his composure like a monarch.

But I needed to hear a convincing answer.

Helmut chose what to say.

I felt a little embarrassed, but I thought it was better. I should just explain everything at this point.

The Archduke listened to Helmut’s story in silence.

Elaga and Ygrel are monsters that came out together from the Forest of Pahe, and in particular, Elaga has protected and raised Helmut since childhood.

It was also emphasized that neither of the two monsters eat people, but are rather friendly and even protect humans from other monsters.

Of course, Ygrel was not particularly friendly to humans, but he did not eat humans.

“Without these two, it would have been difficult to get out of the Forest of Pahe. “They have never had an accident so far.”

Ygrel’s accident was inevitable.

The Archduke pinched sharply.

“Then what do you mean you fought with the High Priest?”

“That…”

Isn’t that also an accident?

While Helmut was choosing an answer, Area quickly answered.

“It was an operation. Helmut didn’t know either.”

“It’s an operation…?”

The Archduke frowned.

“Rinosa’s fate is at stake. But how can you plan and execute it on your own?”

“If I said I would do it, I would have stopped you. And whether it succeeds or fails, it will be an incident that has nothing to do with Renosa.”

“Did you attack the temple with that monster?”

“To be exact, Elaga was the only one who attacked. “I just moved him and brought him back.”

Area nodded lightly.

Even the Archduke can guess why Elaga’s existence was hidden.

The Archduke was not entirely on Helmut’s side, and using powerful monsters could highlight the fact that Helmut possesses the germ of darkness.

The Archduke, who until now had considered the only danger to be Helmut’s ‘sprout of darkness’, must have felt deceived.

Monsters cannot be at full strength unless it is the last moment.

Rinosa pointed his sword at the temple, but he still had a good reason.

Because the corrupt and corrupt temple first found fault and invaded Rinosa.

If you use demons, it will end up as an evil army just like the temple said.

But it has already been done. If he had known, the Archduke would not have allowed it.

Even if the most effective strategy is to attack the temple’s main base from behind and force them to retreat.

The Archduke understood Area’s choice.

However, she was displeased that her choice had been made against the will of the monarch of Linosa.

But that was the past. At this point, when the temple was defeated, they irrevocably joined the same boat.

You cannot get off this ship until it reaches its destination unless it sinks.

Also, the Archduke was in no position to blame Helmut.

The Archduke closed his eyes for a moment and finished organizing himself.

“Helmut.”

Soon the Archduke softly called his name.

“yes.”

“Is there something else you’re hiding?”

Helmut thought for a moment.

Since I was so used to hiding things, I had to think about whether there was something important I wasn’t telling.

“Well, specifically? “It’s just that I have a connection with Black Hawk.”

“That’s it.”

I thought I had had a rest for a while, but a new worry arose.

Fortunately or unfortunately, this worry was not theirs alone.

“Can Archmage Antiol calculate when the barrier will collapse?”

Heike answered.

“It will take three days.”

“I guess I should report this to other countries first.”

There was coolness in the Archduke’s eyes. His mind was rapidly thinking of ways to deal with the situation.

It was not a problem that Linosa could prevent alone.

This is probably an issue that affects countries that are close to the border of Pahe Forest.

If the barrier is broken, the monsters that come out of the Forest of Pahe will eat the humans closest to them.

Those with sensitive senses might wipe out the human species, every single one of them.

No, it’s not just humans, but animals and plants that are weak because they don’t have magical energy, unlike the forest of Pahe. All of that.

“It has probably already been delivered to the Wizards Association. You can use them as notaries. “Because I am a public servant of the temple, I cannot reveal myself.”

Heike, who is merely an archmage, is an important force in this situation.

There might come a time when even the temple would have to acknowledge her assistance.

“Thank you for your hard work in finding out the facts.”

The Archduke offered words of congratulations.

Fortunately, the Empire and Basor were fighting a war against the temple. We are in direct communication with the two countries with the strongest military power.

Heike frowned.

“The temple is probably thinking the same thing. “It’s not a problem that can be solved by them alone.”

The Archduke received the word.

“It may create a situation where they seek help from other countries.”

Weren’t we in a war just yesterday? It’s going to be a very strange composition.

Elaga muttered.

[Someone went through the ordeal of death to overcome the divine barrier, but these people will overcome it day by day.]

“I went through the ordeal of death.”

Ygrel snorted. It wasn’t much help for Elaga, who suffered from a fear of heights.

[Well, anyway, there might actually be nothing to worry about monsters.]

Elaga said calmly. Unlike humans, he had no worries about monsters.

Aren’t they weak guys who fly away if I tap them with my front foot anyway?

“The guys that were crawling in the Forest of Pahe are attacking us again…”

Igrel hesitated as he spoke.

“They’re stupid, and there’s human meat all over the place, so they might not be able to resist and attack them.”

Moreover, it felt like something was going on in the forest of Pahe.

If that feeling were to be believed, they might not be able to control the monsters that came out after the sacred barrier was released.

The two domain rulers remaining in Pahe’s Forest.

Baharek and Kantra had no idea what would have happened.

“I have to go to Pahe’s Forest one more time.”

When Ygrel spoke, Elaga responded.

[Yes, me too.]

“…You’re not saying you’re going to ride me, are you?”

[Why not?]

“Anyone wants!”

Alea intervened between them who were fighting.

“Instead of doing this, it would be better if you go with me and Helmut. “Xiando.”

It would have been better to examine the situation for myself.

We all had a rough idea of what to do.

Everyone left their seats and left the room.

Elaga, who was about to leave for the last time, suddenly turned to look at the Archduke.

[You are Helmut’s incompetent and irresponsible father.]

The Archduke, who was sorting out his complicated thoughts, flinched at the sudden words.

Even if he were the emperor of an empire, he would not be able to criticize Prince Linosa so blatantly.

However, the opponent was a monster. It is a monster powerful enough to destroy a temple alone.

“…That’s right.”

[I picked up the child you abandoned and raised him.]

“Thank you.”

It sounded somehow soulless.

[I raised you well, but are you going to steal me every day?]

“If you want child support, I will give it to you.”

The Archduke frowned as if he was unfamiliar with the situation in which he was talking to a cat.

Elaga raised her tail.

[Where does the monster spend the money?]

“Aren’t they already eating and drinking in the castle? “I’ve never heard of Helmut having a guest.”

This is also a type of guest that must be known.

The Archduke spoke quickly, as if revealing his desire to shake it off.

“So what do you want to say?”

[I will watch from now on. Will you hit that guy in the back like Helmut’s mother or not?]

That’s really straightforward. But it was also a valid warning.

After a moment, the Archduke responded as if he were displeased.

“Sure. But I assure you, that will not happen.”

[Then it went well.]

After saying everything she wanted to say, the Archduke’s voice flowed into the back of Elaga’s head as she left the room.

“And I meant it when I said thank you.”

Elaga did not answer.
