Episode 97 Lord
Zeke’s mansion was never close.
It was correct that I was in Selonia, but since I am stuck in the mountains, it takes quite a while just to go up.
“What’s with this forest… It’s almost like an elven village, isn’t it?”
“Have you ever been to an elven village?”
“Before I came to the Holy Land, I was just living in an elven village.”
“yes? Elves are a closed race, so they tend to reject other races, don’t they?”
“know. The closed personality of those nobles is awesome.”
“…”
Something didn’t flow smoothly, so Eucliwood kept his mouth shut.
It was because, living in the same mansion, he felt keenly that the saint would speak in such a way if he spoke any further.
“Looks like we still have a long way to go.”
“Not even halfway yet.”
“…”
Eucliwood’s words in response to Ray’s self-talk were shocking.
At this level, it was right to say that Zeke’s mansion was almost in a different area.
Aren’t you even halfway there yet? I didn’t really walk around mana, but I walked for half a day without a break.
He deliberately refused to follow up with the escort troops and went with Eucliwood, but how much slower would it be if the troops escorting him were attached?
Moreover, in these mountains.
Ray grumbled.
“No, does it make sense to move such an injured patient to a mansion like this? How nice it would be to just lie down in Selonia Castle.”
Eucliwood answered him.
“After the saint collapsed, Zeke took care of the saint with foam at the mouth.”
“Is it Zeke?”
“yes. They didn’t even let me come next to them.”
Eucliwood’s words were quite surprising.
No matter how much he healed his wounds through surgery, how could he wake up so quickly and escort himself?
What is the spiritual power of a sword master? Even if the sword master is beyond human, it is impossible to move when the heart is so dirty.
Even so, Zeke moved.
The human mind sometimes seems to work miracles.
Ray thought for a moment and asked.
“Then, wouldn’t it be fine if I just recovered my body in my mansion?”
At his words, Eucliwood shook his head.
“After seeing that the saint’s condition improved, I left the saint in my care and went back to the mansion. They said that a dying servant could not be by the lord’s side.”
“…”
Ray was quite moved.
Has anyone ever followed you this way?
There was no decision. In modern times, even if you build up that high position, build up your wealth, and build up achievements, you can’t think of anyone who goes mad at Zeke’s toes.
Just because he became a saint, many people were following him with their lives.
Even Eucliwood, who is here, will follow whatever he says if it is a command.
That’s why Ray doesn’t give orders recklessly.
Is it because Zeke and Eucliwood also know that? The two of them had a stronger relationship of trust than when they first met.
In some ways, even more so than Iriel.
Come to think of it, when you arrive at Zeke’s mansion, it’s like only the three families and yourself are in the mansion.
It’s quite unusual, so a small thought blooms.
‘Euclidean and Zeke know about the receiving committee, but don’t know their faces. Wouldn’t it be nice to see everyone in the mansion at this point?’
While Ray was thinking that, Eucliwood spoke to him.
“Saint.”
“huh?”
“That arm… is it okay?”
“Oh this?”
Ray spoke and raised his left arm.
The left arm, which is still black, shows the mark Aira has engraved.
he grinned.
“I can’t do anything until the demonic energy seeps into my bones… but there’s no particular pain.”
“Still, isn’t it just Magi in it?”
Hidden in the arm is the Bone Dragon’s magic. Even Ray himself doesn’t know what will happen next.
Occasionally, it seems that I often have nightmares, but I don’t think there’s much of a problem if I let them go.
Even if I said I wouldn’t let it go, there was no way to get rid of it.
Seeing Eucliwood talking anxiously in the dark, Ray stroked her hair.
“are you okay. It was I who killed the Bone Dragon. There’s no way you can’t handle a Magi.”
“…All right.”
She lowered her head at Ray’s actions and closed her eyes.
He looked embarrassed, but the tips of his ears were dyed red and he seemed quite embarrassed.
In addition, the divine power radiating from his side made her feel good.
No matter how much he had the mental strength not to be dazzled by such things, he couldn’t stop feeling better.
Eucliwood thought that the saint, who was supposed to be younger today, looked manly.

“Estimating more than 8 circles… what is that…”
The crowd became noisy.
The Archmage of the 8th Circle.
It already meant Lord.
Since the age of magic, no one has been able to call themselves Lord.
That’s also true, since no magician with a 7th circle or higher has ever appeared.
The 6th circle, the limit of human beings.
Those who reached that level were very few among the few wizards.
At one time, there was an era when the 6th circle did not appear for fifty years, so the level of the 6th circle is not enough to receive the title of a great wizard.
But at the age of sixteen, a road that is neither 5th nor 6th?
Philia said as if it were nonsense.
“Rod cannot come out in this era. you know? Even the visions and magic books that have been lost since the Age of Destruction… Already the Lord is a legacy of the Age of Sorcery. Isn’t Seongguk misunderstanding something?”
At her words, Eclay shook his head.
“The Holy Son performed a magic trick before entering the baptismal ceremony.”
The nobles were quietly listening to Eclay’s words.
She paused for a moment, then opened her mouth.
“That magic was a level of magic that didn’t come out even in the age of sorcery.”
“I can’t believe it…”
Selena covered her mouth with her hand as if she had guessed something.
A state that could not be seen even in the age of magic.
There was only one realm.
“It was Meteor, the 9th circle magic.”
bang-!
Philia hit the table.
“This is nonsense!”
No one stopped her from her violent behavior.
Because it actually makes no sense.
However, those who actually saw it at the baptism ceremony shook their heads.
Just because what happened before your eyes is far from reality doesn’t mean you can’t believe it.
Eclay spoke with strength again.
“It is true. The current saint… It is only right to call him Lord, at least out of respect..”
Selena thought for a moment at her words before saying,
“Then can I try the Holy Son’s circle check in the Lessian Empire?”
“You talk about that with the saint. However, I just want you to keep in mind that you are not a person worth going just because someone says you are.”
That meant that the holy kingdom was entirely entrusted to the saint as far as the circle’s confirmation was concerned.
Gregory objected to Eclay’s words.
“Saint Hana knew how to use a sword. As you can see, the movements you made during the meeting are not something that a wizard can do.”
People nodded their heads at him.
Certainly, there couldn’t be a wizard of the Lessian Empire’s sword master who aimed his sword at his neck before he could pull out his sword, and it shouldn’t exist.
At that, Eclay had no words to say.
How did he explain the use of swords and magic?
Are you saying that ‘the saint is a rod, but he uses it well at the level of kendo’?
Then Gregory would hit the table this time.
It was a decision she could never make as she wanted the table in the lecture hall to be safe.
In the end, Eclay decided to avoid answering.
“We don’t know either.”
That one word was enough.
If they don’t know, how will they find out?
As she intended, the other kingdoms also kept their mouths shut.
A quiet voice echoed throughout the hall, and more and more people were thinking about something.
It was especially true in combat corps that dealt with magic.
Excluding Selena and Philia, the commanders of the magic corps couldn’t move their mouths because they were thinking.
If you’ve come this far, the fact that the saint is Lord is an established fact.
If so, they had to change their behavior accordingly.
The Lessian Empire, which looked bad for that lord, was especially like that.
Taken by Rod? It was so absurd to think that it was simply filmed.
Now that there is no mage tower, it is Rod who stands at the top of all mages. Do you think wizards will disobey what the lord commands? Unless ordered to betray their country, they will gladly move.
What if Lord made up his mind and raised the Magic Tower? All countries were literally at an end.
At best, the 5th circle users are the command system and the 6th circle is making a name for themselves as the chief royal mage, but who will teach them?
When the mage tower is created there, most of the wizards who have been involved in their respective academic societies will escape.
There is a rod that is estimated to be more than Circle 8 in the Mage Tower, and many mages under it can gather and form a meeting place.
Above all, you should be able to focus more on magic than on the rotten society.
So, the Natural Society was eliminated and the magic force had no choice but to decrease.
Each kingdom had to somehow revive the relationship with Lord, which had been entangled since the meeting.
From how to naturally invite them to their kingdom, to how to maintain a friendly relationship.
Many thoughts ran through their heads.
Eclay looked at the figure and sighed.
Perhaps the talks will end with this. It’s because if I tried to say more, it would create an atmosphere where she would talk to herself and think about the rest.
But I guess it’s not over yet. Gregory of the Lessian Empire said.
“Can we meet the Holy Son one more time after the meeting?”
At that, Eclay shook his head.
“I don’t think I can give you a definitive answer.”
“Hmm… Until the Holy Son gives an answer, the Lessian Empire will be indebted to the holy kingdom.”
“You do that.”
It is good for a holy country that the Sword Master and the Archmage of the 6th Circle stay for a long time.
After all, the rebellion is about to be suppressed gradually.
However, it seems that the idea was not limited to the Lessian Empire.
Even in the Kingdom of Gleiman, Klein rose up.
“Would it be all right if we took care of the Kingdom of Gleiman a little?”
Gayman of the Baybon Kingdom was the same.
“Please allow the Baybon Kingdom to stay in the Holy Kingdom for a while.”
When Count Slaine and Captain Gayman spoke, Eclay let out a small sigh.
“If you wish, you can stay in the Holy Kingdom.”
These are volunteer troops who came nominally to support the Holy Kingdom. If they were thrown out here and now, the position of the Seongguk would be difficult.
It would be better to accept their opinions and benefit from them.
‘Whoa… It will be difficult for that child.’
Even if he didn’t fix his eyes, he was a humanely liked child.
After leaving Saint Igo Rodigo, I am attached to him now and do not care when and where he comes to his mansion. Personally, I didn’t even bother to take an example, so I said everything.
It is obvious that the situation that will make Ray difficult is being directed.
There will probably be marriage talks coming and going quite often, and there will be people who openly push with their bodies.
Wealth, honor, pleasure, a strong back and a woman.
There were many dirty tricks that Ray, who was still young, had never experienced before.
There was one thing she didn’t know.
Ray has experienced such dirty tricks countless times in modern times.
Pressure from the political world, rejection from medical societies, and so on.
The current Ray was the one who stood up after going through all of those moves. Moreover, now that he had the power to crush others, most of the moves wouldn’t work for Ray.
