“…not my strength. Power is a keepsake.”
“You mean you use the power of the Golden Sutra? Then, isn’t it a golden mirror?”
“…With this power, I can only fix broken things. It’s not the Golden Goblet, it’s because I use it.”
Even if a tool has infinite power, there is a limit to the subject who uses it. Compared to the golden sutra, where Demo and Elric’s thoughts remained, Peru was inferior. Like me. Actually golden hardness. Even if I could make everything in the world, I couldn’t decorate the city aesthetics well due to the limits of my imagination. There is a law that everyone lacks in the world.
“Thank you for your kind explanation. Um, what about this?”
Hilde made a troubled face. Even if there was no clear evidence, considering that the Golden Palace collapsed after Peru approached the Golden Mirror, there is no particular reason to doubt it. Especially if you use the power of the golden mirror.
However, the story is different at the level of a beggar country that can only trust Hilde who saw the scene in person.
“Peru. In order to become the representative of a country, it is more important for the majority to recognize and follow that person as the representative rather than the individual claiming to be the representative. It’s like everyone follows the will of the general headquarters even if there is no king in the military country. No matter how much Peru is called the golden state, who will believe it?”
“…There is a suppressor.”
“That person is dead. ‘I’ watched it with my own two eyes, but I kept my eyes on it and moved too close to the golden mirror. I didn’t have to.”
Peru was shocked by the unexpected news. As if responding to her feelings, the golden bell also cried. Peru, who had been dazed for a while, muttered helplessly.
“…I see. Hector.”
“It was a holy sacrifice. I don’t know if it’s thanks to you or not, but I’ve achieved my goal! So what now?”
The reason why Hilde pushes Peru is not simply because she is nasty. Hilde still represents the interests of the military, so she acts in any situation that leads to the best results for the military. Now Hilde is in a position to extract as much as possible while negotiating a truce. It is to point out Peru’s weaknesses and gain the upper hand.
“The self-proclaimed Golden Lord. He might have extinguished the golden mirror himself! who will follow you? Even if I obey you, I can’t believe it!”
…Of course, that’s not to say that he isn’t mean.
While Hilde was pushing Peru in various ways, she felt a number of people from behind. When I turned my head, the wildcats who had been following Hector had arrived late and were snooping around. One of them, dressed much more neatly than the other wildcats, drew everyone’s attention.
“Lord Jannokhoe. This is Deca, the secretary of the oppressive lord.”
It was Hector’s subordinate whom he had seen several times in the city. Recognizing his face, Peru replied sadly.
“…He is the oppressor.”
“I know. Because I saw it myself.”
The one called Dekara briefly closed his eyes as if sending a tribute to the respected Hoeju and continued.
“I want to mourn Hoe-ju’s death, but I can’t even afford to because of those wild cats. The moment Hector passed away, he cowardly came to me right away and demanded that I hand over his property.”
There was a distance, but his voice was loud enough that even the wildcats who followed him could hear it. At the sound of his voice, the wolves became angry and shouted.
“The oppressor said he would share his wealth with us if we followed him!”
“Since we heard that and followed it, of course we should have our share!”
Deka, who had sufficiently elicited the clamor of the wildcats, shouted proudly.
“Did you see? To the subject who did nothing, to the subject who did not help you who are trying to block the Golden Goblet! Simply following Hector’s heels demands a share! What kind of business is this? even! When Lord Hui passed away, there was no one by his side!”
“You go all the way there because you’re crazy? If you go, you will die!”
“Who would bang their head against a wall knowing they’d be searched for?!”
All kinds of booing and cursing poured out on Decca.
In terms of facts, Seungnyangi was right, but now that Hekto was dead, the Seungnyangs who were shouting for their share looked like faceless devils. Deca secured legitimacy with the cries of the wildcats and then complained to Peru.
“Lord Jannokhoe. It is Lord Jannokhoe who sets out to block the Golden Sutra. Lord Hui saved us and accomplished the will of the Lord of Oppression. If only the Lord Jannokhoe can distribute the property and business of the Lord of Oppression.”
“…I am.”
“Lord Jannokhoe. Even though the Lord of Oppression Society passed away, we, Drum Sanghoe, are responsible for the food of all countries. If it disintegrates in the air like this, the nations will starve. It can’t be, can it?”
“…umm.”
Deca seemed genuinely concerned about the future of the country, so Peru couldn’t answer easily and slurred his words. To the troubled Peru, Decca quietly added a word.
“And doesn’t Lord Jannokhoe need strength too? Drum Sanghoe can help Lord Jannokhoe.”
If you have to, I suggest that you become the owner of the drum store. I was curious about his inner thoughts, so I read his thoughts.
‘If we disband Gobungobun Trading and divide the property here, nothing will happen! We’re running nations. Even if Hekto is dead, we should still be Drums! We can’t make the nations roll!’
Decca was obviously sincere. Although he had a sense of superiority that he was different from other seungnyangs, he clearly had a genuine desire to maintain this system, even if he had Peru as the new ruler. Peru already seemed to have many worries. As soon as you become the king of the nations, one side is pressuring you to sign an armistice, while the other side is arguing over inheritance issues, so you must be on the verge of death. I’m in the worst condition there.
Peru looked at me with difficulty and asked.
“…what should I do?”
“yes? Why do you do that to me?”
“…there’s no one else to ask.”
Peru looked around and answered gloomily. That’s right. Hilde is on the military side. The regressor is in charge of the armed forces. Because Hector, who would be helpful at least, is dead.
“I have nothing to answer. Wouldn’t it be better to ask someone else for help?”
“…If it’s someone else.”
“I need to find out the details first. Where is the oppressor’s property? No matter how many Juggernauts I had, I wouldn’t have carried them all.”
“…If the size of the property is large, that property will be entrusted to Claudia. It’s also the only city… Because the Lord of Thunder has trust.”
“Then it has been decided.”
You can’t do anything on a street like this anyway. Then there is only one way left.
“Let’s go to Claudia. If you meet Urehoeju there, you will be able to take on most of the problems.”
Problems that cannot be solved in the first place can be left to competent people. How would you lift a log by yourself? have to share
The reactions to my proposal were sharply divided.
“for a moment. is it a property? Do you really intend to share the property of the oppressor lord?”
“no way. It was an opportunity to steam someone who doesn’t know anything. Whose side is your father on?”
Deca and Hilde did not welcome greater power and power, although not as great as the Golden Ring. But others were different.
The wildcats cheered and Peru was convinced. Even Tyr welcomed the choice.
“Because it’s a cloud town… it would be nice to go and check how much it has changed.”
‘If I can, I’ll be able to show Hugh the Mist Principality beyond.’
The regressor who had been thinking hard also agreed.
“good. Decided. Our next destination is Claudia. I had to hear it at least once anyway.”
‘There is Cheon-Aeng and there is Ji-Zan. If you go to Claudia with both of them, you can enshrine the god of thunder inside. Even with Cheon-Ai and Ji-Zan, it’s too much, but it’ll be a little better if I dwell on the Thunder God.’
…Though I had a slightly different idea. What else is the brain god? how do you put it on? Can you become stronger here? Some people are just miscellaneous people even if they have three demons nesting in them!
“…Let’s go to Claudia. There if you have business.”
In any case, it was concluded. Peru tried to board the golden ship. At that time, Decca blocked the way in excitement. If the regressor hadn’t glared at him with a sad expression, he might have touched Peru’s body.
“Of course you can go. But do you intend to take them with you? They will try to extort all of the company’s money!”
“…If that’s a contract.”
“They did not fulfill their contract!”
“…Including that, I’m going to solve it in Claudia.”
“How to do the obvious!”
If Peru was alone, it might have been difficult. But now there is a regressor who specializes in cutting something by Peru’s side. When Deca persisted, the regressor cut off his words in a fit of annoyance.
“Noisy. we don’t have time right now If you intend to interfere, stay here, pack something, and leave.”
However, the survival instinct was still there. Deca closed her mouth and turned around.
‘Nonsense. It’s not like I just chased after the golden mirror and wiped my back! I can’t let our company disappear like this!’
It seems that there are many things to do before Claudia’s business is over.
The golden ship’s horn sounded and the group headed for Claudia set off in unison.
If there was one thing Decca did well, it was bringing Aurea, a horse from Peru. To be precise, Aurea, left behind by Peru, ran after Deca on her own accord, but anyway. Peru rode on a Rottweiler and climbed onto the Golden Ship, barely even starting the engine before collapsing. Aurea stayed by Peru’s side crying as if she was worried about her master.
Seeing Peru collapse on the bed and groan, Hilde said a word.
“I think I will die before reaching Claudia. Shouldn’t we get a memorandum in advance?”
Pretend not to be malicious, say harsh words. The regressor also reacted nervously.
“Stop saying ominous things! You don’t die that easily.”
“No~. I know that ‘I’ have a good understanding of healing arts, but Peru’s body seems to be in a very dangerous state? This cannot be healed even with divine power.”
Tyr reacted lightly to the word divine power, but Hilde was not a fool to reveal that she knew how to use divine power in front of a vampire. As if it was someone else’s story, he quietly spilled his words.
“Peru looks fine right now, but her energy is tangled, right? It’s because it’s stuffed with homunculus. Grafting that replaces the body with other powers is a type 2 contraindication. If you do it even once, you will not be able to return to your body with divine power.”
Healing by divine power is restored. However, if a part of the body is replaced with power, as in Peru, restoration is impossible. Hilde, who was once a paladin, saw through the fact and made a de facto declaration of a time limit. However, the regressor answered insignificantly.
“are you okay. There must be someone who can cure Jannokhoeju.”
“Treatment? Are there any saints? No, if you commit a taboo, even a saint can’t fix it?”
“I am not a saint. Righteousness.”
“Of… good?”
Hilde tilted her head. It has to be. Jiseon and Yoseon. Like all human beings, I, who is good at mind reading, could only think of two immortals. Hilde, who was in charge of a country’s intelligence department, was no different.
It’s more righteous than that. A saint and divine power openly exist, but is it a freshman who heals people? something is weird
“Is that weird~? Among the freshmen I know, there is no Uiseon? Wouldn’t that be too much to confuse?”
“I guess.”
‘The reason she is called Uiseon is because the future has yet to come. She wouldn’t be called so without the Seven War that brought her fame. but i know who she is If someone is injured, I will treat them regardless of the type.’
Come to think of it, it seems that Uiseon was also mentioned when making medicine in the abyss. It’s a freshman that doesn’t exist yet. You mean only regressors know? After all, it’s good to have a comeback. Unlike me, who knew information that others didn’t know. As if complaining, Hilde asked, analyzing the regressor in a sharp way.
“How on earth do you know information that even ‘me’, who was the head of a country’s intelligence bureau, doesn’t know~. That’s too suspicious. Shay, what the hell are you?”
“Think whatever you want.”
“Yes. Okay. ‘I’ think what I want~.”
Ignoring Hilde who was sulking like a child, the regressor glanced at Tyr.
‘…but if there’s one problem, it’s Tyrkanjaka… well, there’s no particular problem. Uiseon is a vampire, but unlike Tyrkanjaka, he moves alone.’
what? Uiseon’s true identity was a vampire? No, a vampire that sucks human blood and treats people? Does that make sense?…Is there anything I can’t do? Because even humans who eat animals have a job called a veterinarian. It’s not like I’m doing something grandiose enough to be called righteous line.
Aji, who had been yawning droopingly, whimpered as he hit the floor with his tail.
“Woof woof. I’m bored. Woof woof.”
“Play with words as usual.”
“bruise. i have noticed I don’t bother you.”
“Are you saying that he’s bored right now?”
Where did you sell your eyes? This is why beasts. But for Aji, the journey where people die at random was a bit harsh. A little change of atmosphere would be necessary. There aren’t many opportunities to stay like this. When the next 15 days come… Aji will fight the king of wolves even if he doesn’t like it. Well, with this power, even the king of wolves would be no problem. If it’s necessary, you can get help from other countries, and if you need help, there are vampires.
“Let’s go out to the deck for a moment. I want to ventilate too.”
“bruise!”
