Episode 243. The weight of the name ‘Reinhardt’ (2)
Kukuku kung!
The entire tomb shook with a roar.
As if to warn the grave robbers that he will punish them.
A cloud of dust poured from the ceiling.
“Ughhhh! It’s a trap!”
“Avoid everyone! Move backwards, backwards!”
Beinstelln’s aides backed away in fright.
Puffer Puck!
Fuck!
A crossbow was fired between wall and wall.
The wizards whose whole bodies had been pierced spewed blood and died.
“Gagging!”
“Cool….”
The damage was beyond imagination because it had magic that professionally destroyed the shield.
At least, even the knights with excellent physical abilities barely survived.
rattle!
“Uh huh?”
“Sah, save me.”
This time, the floor went off, and traps with spears sprouted out below them.
A trap that leads like a storm.
“I see, it’s really like you to trap the enemies. You did a good job. Thanks to you, I can breathe.”
Chun Yoo-seong patted Jin-hyeok on the shoulder with a confident face.
Taking advantage of the chaos, I even obtained the ‘Heavenly Place’, so it can be said that the most important goal has been achieved.
hmm.
I’m grateful for the compliment…
“This range is the entire tomb.”
“what?”
“We should avoid it diligently. Oh, to be precise, there is a secret passage that leads to the outside at the end of the tomb, so we can go outside with the emperor.”
“What crazy! What the hell are you planning?”
“Ehehe. Don’t be like that. Just avoid traps and stuff like that. Take a good look.”
Jinhyeok moved his head slightly to avoid the flying crossbow.
one foot two feet. and one more step.
A crossbow that passed through my body was embedded in the wall on the other side.
Poison darts and spears flew from under his feet and from the ceiling in an off-beat, but Jinhyeok had already escaped like a mudfish.
“It’s very elastic, so it’s rather dangerous if you try to hit it or twist its trajectory. It’s best to avoid it like this, but you’ll get used to it after doing it a few times. And the rest of the traps have a gap of about 0.13 seconds before they activate. You can use that gap to move quickly.”
There were about 17 other traps, but if you understand the pattern, you will be able to reach the exit without difficulty.
hey
To be honest, this is almost the same as putting a tube down my throat and pushing rice into it.
I memorized these things while bloody shit, but since I told them about this for free, I’m sure they’ll be thrilled.
“Damn it. That’s easier said than done. You mean avoiding everything that comes at that speed?”
“…That’s possible because it’s Mr. Jinhyeok.”
Chun Yoo-sung gnawed his molars and Teresa let out a small sigh.
“Tsk tsk. You didn’t even consider that the old emperor was capable of such a move, did you?”
Even Alice clicked her tongue and put on a pitiful expression.
“It looks like you picked the wrong side. I have to apologize to the Duke right now.”
Even Abraham despaired of the choice he had made.
‘Um… is this really that hard?’ I
think I can do it with my eyes closed once I get used to it a little bit
.
However, I agree with the saying that it is difficult for the emperor, even if I don’t know about other people.
then.
“I’ll make a gap with the barrier, so in the meantime, you guys form a formation and go outside. Mr. Pesis can act as a guide, so it won’t be too difficult to get out.”
After weakening the power of the crossbow with a defensive barrier, he protected the emperor from all directions.
The risk was reduced to a minimum because there was a pesis optimized for finding a way out just in time.
“What are you going to do?”
“I have to stay. I also need someone to wait until I inform the outside about this incident.”
The nobles in the palace may not know, but the kings of the rest of the kingdoms have no choice but to take this matter seriously.
It’s a natural story.
Because that might be their future.
And if I could inform them of this…
I would be able to create a dagger that could completely destroy Beinstelln’s conspiracy.
“That’s not a bad idea. Certainly, if it goes that way, we’ll be the ones who can establish a cause.”
Abraham nodded.
“Damn. I always feel like I’m in the middle of a storm when I’m with you.”
Chun Yoo-seong grumbled, but did not object.
It’s because I realized that this way is the only way.
“Take care of yourself, Mr. Jinhyeok.”
“Don’t worry too much about this. I’ll do my best to lead you safely.”
Teresa and Pescis added one word at a time.
“Thanks to you, I am able to dream again. Please, I hope to see you up there.”
Finally, Reinhardt greeted me with gratitude and respect.
With such a brief farewell.
Whoops!
Jinhyeok opened a barrier.
At the same time, everyone jumped out of their seats and started running towards the entrance.
no, not everyone is like that.
Only one.
“Why aren’t you going?”
Alice stood still next to Jinhyeok, not moving.
“I thought it would be difficult for you to deal with that many guys alone. Losing a contractor in a place like this was not in my plan.”
“It’s an admirable thing to say, but you haven’t fully recovered your magical powers yet. Rather, don’t you think you’ll become a burden?”
“There’s no need to use force. Even if it’s not, there’s a way for the troops on the Empire’s side to solve it in my line. At least there won’t be anything holding back their ankles.”
In Elise’s hand, a sword symbolizing ‘Reinhardt’ was clutched.
“Isn’t that the sword of the first emperor…?”
Not for combat, but for ceremonial use.
Therefore, the sword was merely an ornament to decorate the tomb.
“Yes. That’s right. It’s that guy’s sword.”
Elise lightly swung her sword as if reminiscing about the past.
＊＊＊
A place where a storm swept away once.
Due to numerous traps, Beinstein and the nobles suffered tremendous damage.
“Keugh…”
Beinstellen wiped the blood flowing from his forehead with the back of his hand.
It was a mistake to not figure out that there would be a trap that would trigger in this way.
But it’s not too late.
The opponent must have been sweating to avoid this trap as well.
Even now, you can set up a pursuit team and cut off your breath.
But just then
Someone appeared in front of Beinstelln.
It was a white-haired girl who stayed by that human bastard’s side.
“I thought you ran away. You’re still here.”
“I, too, hate getting involved in troublesome things more than dying. In my heart, I want to sip wine in a soft bed.”
“Your words and actions contradict each other. If so, why didn’t you escape?”
“My contractor wants it.”
“Isn’t it too futile for a reason for death? Well, if that’s your choice, I hope you won’t regret it.”
It was when Beinstein was about to give orders to the knights beside him.
“Before we begin, may I ask you one question?”
“Hmm. Last question? Okay. I’ll allow you that much.”
“Why do you humans try to betray the emperor when you put so much emphasis on loyalty and honor?”
“That’s a question not even worth answering. Loyalty is something you should do to someone who deserves it. But, the emperor doesn’t deserve it.”
“It’s strange.”
Elise tilted her head at Beinstelln’s words.
“What’s strange?”
“Hasn’t your family sworn to protect the name ‘Reinhardt’ from generation to generation? The first Reinhardt certainly said so.”
“Puhaha! That’s absurd. There’s even such a thing as nonsense. I can’t believe I just made up words like this. The first emperor is said to have lived for a long time thanks to his phantom metamorphosis over the wall, but he lived long enough to face a kid as young as you. it’s not.”
Beinstein burst into laughter, but Ellis did not laugh.
“I think you’re mistaken about something…”
Alice slowly opened her mouth.
“The kid is the one who wielded this sword.”
I am.
“He’s the one who saw the sword’s first steps.”
‘Tercencio. Te Arphem.’
To the short words that flowed from Elise’s mouth…
…the runes engraved on the sword responded.
What followed was the light emitted from the sword and the figure of a young man formed by that light.
It was only an illusion, not a reality, but the illusion exuded a greater presence than the reality of everyone here.
An earthquake occurred in the pupils of the nobles.
“I-I can’t do this.”
“That person can’t be…”
Undoubtedly.
A great emperor who unified the empire.
To be precise, it was the appearance of Reinhard I in his youth.
“Woe, see your Majesty the Emperor.”
“The sword… was a holy relic containing the image of the emperor.”
Among the old gods, there were those who remembered Reinhardt’s appearance.
They were wise men of the Mage Tower or sword masters who jumped over the wall.
Right then.
The man wrapped in a halo of light looked at Elise.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a close friend. Haha. It would have been really nice if this was in my lifetime. It’s just a pity to face this image projected as a memory of the past.”
A sad smile emerged from Reinhardt’s mouth.
Although only fragments of his fragmented ego, not reality, brought out that smile.
“Yes. Me too.”
“Still, seeing that you’ve come here, it seems that you have escaped from the corridor that restrained you.”
“Because I met a good person. It overlaps with your image a little bit.”
“That’s fortunate. It’s really fortunate.”
Reinhardt and Elise had a calm conversation.
It was a common sight to see people exchanging their regards on a daily basis, but everywhere.
Those who watched it couldn’t help but be shocked by each and every small conversation.
“Is that girl really… acquainted with His Majesty the First Emperor?”
“Mi, I can’t believe it.”
Even after many years, all the retainers of the empire remembered the achievements of Reinhardt I, King of Conquerors.
The sword masters and arch mages who were allowed to live a long life met the emperor in person.
Even those who did not meet him in person learned about the great conqueror through numerous history books and textbooks.
-The first emperor is the empire itself. His will and will take precedence over all laws and regulations.
made the impossible possible.
The absolute one who allowed a stable life to the people of the empire who lived in anxiety every day.
It was no exaggeration to say that the current peace and vast territory were all achievements of the first emperor.
However, the alter ego of the emperor heard the truth from Alice.
Reinhardt’s eyes turned to the nobles.
“The tower with the Six Visions is the symbol of the White Tower. If it is false, it must mean that you belong to the magic family led by Terher.”
“Yes, yes. Terher was my father. I too had an audience with Your Majesty when I was young.”
The old man in a robe bowed his head at Reinhardt’s question.
“Then you will remember too. White Tower swore. I will protect the empire and my bloodline.”
The voice sank heavily.
However, the question was filled with deep sadness rather than reprimand or rebuke.
Perhaps… the days when the empire was established. “…”
The head of the white pagoda lowered his head with a stiff face.
Because he had nothing to say even with ten mouths.
Reinhardt’s eyes turned to another man.
“The red horseman is the symbol of the Trian family .
am. When a beacon rises that an enemy has invaded the empire, your flag is the first thing to be seen on the plains coming to the ecliptic. Is Jim wrong?”
The first to fight the enemy and the last to retreat.
That was the belief of the Trian family,
called the Spear of the Empire .
That’s it. If Trion were here, he would have mourned with me.”
“…”
The emperor’s voice
continued
. It is true that this could darken the future of your family.”
But.
Even so.
“Your family and your ancestors swore an oath. Even when the empire collapses and everything turns to dust, I will meet my end by my side and my descendants.”
If that fate is their own words, they
will accept it with a smile. The
first family heads swore
. ” Remember
that oath,”
Reinhardt commanded last.
A deep silence lingered in the tomb.
Nobles and knights led by nobles could not lift their swords and shields.
Wizards I couldn’t even sing it, so
I kept my mouth shut. Do not be swayed by the words of the dead ghost and raise your sword. Fire magic and wipe them out!”
However, no one moved even at the sound of Beinstein’s
flagship
.
!”
We must not delay any longer.
Now we have to overturn this situation by any
means necessary
.
I can’t do it.”
[The ‘Goddess of Destruction’ smiles.] A
terrifying storm raged.
The magic power of the godhead began to manifest through Nirasha’s body.
At the same time.
“Sorry, but the godhead . You are not the only one who can reach it.”
Jinhyeok also injected magic power into the purple jewel.
[The ‘Heavenly Place’ responds.]
The upper part of the invisible tower here.
From that far away.
Someone answered Jinhyeok’s call. did.
