194. Where the sky becomes thin (5)

“It’s not like I left it there because I knew you would find it.”
“That’s right.”
Ronan nodded heavily. The circumstances in which I discovered the map were so exquisite. In particular the fact that it had been processed so that even Navarrodo could not find it disproved the fact that this map was prepared for a specific person.
“You said Elthea left here five years ago right?”
“okay. “It was around that time.”
“It would be correct to assume that the woman left her map here. “I will take care of this.”
No matter how much I thought about it the only solution was to go find it in person. Ronan folded the map neatly and put it in his inner pocket.
“I guess so. First of all it seems clear that there is something on that island hmm. “If it’s not too busy here I’d be happy to help…”
Navardose muttered with a hint of regret. This is what I thought from the first time we met it was a really nice dragon. Even though I know he is much stronger than me I am worried about his safety.
His pretty face still showed signs of fatigue. No matter what it won’t be long before he goes into battle. Ronan who was thinking deeply about something opened his mouth.
“Since we’re already here shall we chop it up a bit?”
“Hmm? “What do you mean by cutting?”
“I’m not bragging but killing strange monsters like that is my specialty. “I will be training and standing on the front line in place of Navardose so wouldn’t it be okay to rest for a few days?”
“Hoo?”
Navardose shrugged his eyebrows. The sharply narrowed eyes became round again. Ronan scratched his cheek for no reason. Expressing favor verbally can sometimes be embarrassing.
“There’s nothing I can’t do as long as I contact Phileon… Oh really why are you looking at me like that?”
Ronan who continued talking gibberish finally couldn’t hold back and spoke. It was difficult to bear the gaze of Navardose who had a meaningful smile on his face.
She laughed out loud and stroked Ronan’s head. There was quite a difference in her height so I had to raise her on tiptoes.
“Ahaha I’m proud of it and it’s cute. “I see you have a very good friend.”
“Ugh.”
Ronan frowned. I never got used to being treated like a child. Even considering that the other person is the longest-living creature in the world.
“But I refuse. “I will see you off so please return as soon as I finish this job.”
“Are you serious? “I’m confident I can fight better than most of these idiots.”
“okay. “Because you’re a much nicer kid than you think.”
Ronan who couldn’t understand what she meant at first tilted his head. Navarro Dodo I took her word for it.
“Child I know you are special. Obviously it would be good to put it on the front line right away. Since he inherited ■■’s ability to cut down magic I have no doubt that he will perform better than most immortals.”
“Then why…”
“But that’s why you can’t leave here. A situation like the one that saved Bnihardo and Iraniel will happen several times and each time it happens you will hesitate to leave Drimoor.”
Navardose’s voice was friendly yet serious. Ronan who was about to retort by saying “Why would I care about such a thing?” swallowed her words that hit him right under his chin.
‘shit. That makes sense.’
When I thought about it it didn’t seem like an entirely unlikely opinion. Ronan twisted her mouth. Looking back it happened several times when she was rolling around in the punishment squad.
I didn’t want to see them being wasted so I started taking care of them one by one and before I knew it I was responsible for quite a few insectivores. They were criminals who had no answers but eventually we became attached to them and they repaid the favor in their own way.
By throwing away even the lives he saved he opened a path leading to Ahayute. Navardose continued.
“I want you to think about the bigger picture. “Like ■■ and Elthea who were wandering around looking for a way to save everyone.”
“Navardose.”
“So don’t worry about this place and leave it to us.”
Navarro took his hand away from his head and this time started touching his cheek. Her sleep escaped between his dry lips. It was not difficult for him to predict what would happen next.
‘I will definitely kill those monsters without any trouble. Even the immortals who were tickling will eventually recognize your skills and you will be able to have fun in your own way although not as much as in Phileon… enough to make you feel affectionate.’
She was right. Ronan acknowledged that coupled with her own curmudgeonly personality there was a strong possibility that she would be caught off guard. He bit her lower lip lightly.
‘I don’t feel like using it like a chess piece but I have no choice.’
She had to compete within five to seven years at best. As Navardose said defense against alien forces had to be left to the Drimoore and a way to catch and kill the winged balds had to be found. Ronan nodded her decision not long in coming.
“all right. “I’ll go back today.”
“okay. “You’re a smart kid.”
“I have something to say instead.”
“Hmm?”
“It’s a rather serious story. It may sound absurd but these are facts that I have found out. “I hope you can trust me.”
It was for this reason that she asked for separate time as compensation in the first place. Navarro tilted her head. It seemed as if she was wondering what she was going to say and why she was taking such a long time. Ronan took a deep breath and opened her mouth.
“Nebula Clage. So how much do you know about the Nebula Church?”
“If it’s the Nebula Church…are you talking about that organization that turned strange at some point? “They say it’s related to recent events but honestly I’m not sure.”
Navardose’s reaction was as boring as expected. It was a reaction befitting an immortal. For her the rise and fall of her humanity is as natural and natural as the change of seasons.
Although the Savior the founder of the cult cut off the horns of her clan the Gargarens that was before Nebula Clazier was even founded.
‘If I say something wrong Asher will be screwed.’
For a moment she thought about drawing out her anger by linking it to the attempted murder of Itar Gand but she quickly decided against it. It was the evil deeds of the Winter Witch rather than Nebula Clage and if they spoke hastily there was a possibility that Asher who was being tutored by the witch would be hit with a spark.
In the end it’s a head-to-head battle. Ronan mumbled her words and took out her Dawn card from his inner pocket. Navarre’s eyes widened at Blood Mithril’s beautiful appearance.
“that?”
“This is the identification card I received from His Majesty the Emperor.”
Ronan explained her position and her mission step by step. It was absolutely necessary for her smooth persuasion. As she listened to her explanation she hummed in interest.
“Oh… was he an imperial official? “He was more capable than I thought.”
“It’s just that there was no one in the Empire who hated those bastards more than me. “What I’m talking about now is about what those fanatics will do in the future.”
After Ronan had sufficiently gathered her thoughts he spoke to her. He began talking about the ‘Descent of the Stars’ event that would occur in the near future based on the Darman transformation incident that occurred in Farzan.
Bald men and their unrealistic strength coming down from the sky seven years later. Until the future when everything will be lost. As the story progressed Navardose’s face hardened.
“So what you’re saying is that seven years later the original monsters called Darman will come down to the world? “Is it around that time that Drimoore falls?”
“That’s accurate.”
“…Honestly it’s hard to believe. “I don’t know what it is but I can’t believe that only three of them can penetrate the Drimoore.”
“If the information I confirmed is true it would be difficult to stop even one person. Regardless of its destructive power it is equipped with a protective shield that prevents all damage.”
Ronan even made hand gestures to describe the giants’ abilities. The important thing was to describe what she had experienced in her past life as if she had recently seen it somewhere.
Because I couldn’t bear to say that I had regressed. It was a story that was bound to sound like nonsense even if another chance was used. Navardose sighed.
“If what I say is true…um. “It’s definitely a problem.”
However what was different from before was that it was possible to convey a story like a sleep talk in a persuasive way. This is because many people each with considerable influence in their respective positions saw Darman’s transformation into a giant.
‘Actually that idiot drove the wedge.’
Just by having the leaders of a group take the story seriously the game changes. It wasn’t for nothing that Darman’s transformation into a giant became a turning point. A few minutes passed and Ronan finally got the answer he wanted.
“Let’s look into it seriously. “I guess I’ll have to send a letter to Adren sometime today.”
Ronan clenched his fists instead of answering. From this moment on it was as if Nebula Clage had turned its enemy against a force that rivaled or exceeded that of the Empire.
It seemed that it would not be long before the bugs would meet the dragon’s fire. No matter what secret weapons were left the most perfect race since the creation of the world would not be an easy opponent. Ronan calming down his excitement lowered his head.
“Please take care of me.”
“Thank you for telling me such important information. “I guess I’ll have to go back now.”
The conversation soon ended. I searched the room for about an hour but couldn’t find anything useful except the map I found at first. Ronan decided to leave the fortress immediately as Navardose said.
“I’m sorry. “I wanted to take you there myself.”
“are you okay.”
Navardose was unable to personally see Ronan off due to time constraints. The portal she had prepared in advance was created at the spot where she first landed on her Drimoor. The contrast between the black sky and blue stars was still beautiful. A woman he had never seen before an elf named Iraniel who had fought with the Mother of Fire herself a little while ago saw him off.
“Take care Ronan. “If you change your mind or want to enjoy eternal wealth and fame please come to Iraniel Remation.”
“Next time I won’t even count and hit you.”
“I don’t mind getting hit a little as long as you let me do the research.”
Iraniel offered to shake hands. Ronan grinned holding his hand and shaking it up and down. The woman who was poking her mouth out blurted out.
“Goodbye. human being.”
“hmm?”
Ronan turned his head and looked at her. Her impression was a bit fierce but she was undeniably beautiful. The problem was that I had no idea who this woman was to see me off.
“Excuse me but who are you?”
“Did you at least hurt your head?”
She laughed as if the woman was amazed. I was impressed by her waist-length auburn hair and her assertive figure. Even if it wasn’t at the level of Navardose it was enough to describe it as violent. Violent. Because it’s violent… Ronan who suddenly realized her identity opened her eyes wide.
“Could it be Bnihard?”
“You’re really quick-witted.”
Bnihardo snorted. It seemed like this was her humanoid polymorph. It was a natural thing to say but it was an appearance that could not be associated with the dragon form. Ronan who was dumbfounded took her mouth off.
“You look like Navardose. “In many ways.”
“You’re saying it’s obvious. “Anyway seeing you suddenly show me manners did you realize my greatness belatedly?”
“Uh…let’s say so.”
Ronan nodded her head. Her eyes were fixed on one place. She was starting to like the dragon race which had seemed unlucky in her previous life. Bni Hardo smiled putting her hands on her hips.
“You are wiser than you look. Hehehe please continue to be polite like that in the future.”
He looked just as clueless as Itargand when I first met him but that didn’t really matter. Navarre also sent her message as if I was whispering.
[I hope you understand. Neve is not a bad kid…]
She was looking at her daughter with eyes that were half affectionate and half pitiful. It was a really nice picture to see the two of them standing side by side. Ronan gently placed her hand on the hilt of her sword.
‘Lin. I think the next four masters will also be okay with dragons.’
Anyway it was time to leave. It was an unforgettable experience in many ways. The monster father’s room coming from the sky above the curse of fire and the dragon mother and daughter who are vicious in many ways. It was a topic that would make some money if I wrote a book and sold it. Just as she was about to enter the portal Navarro waved her hand and greeted me.
“Then goodbye. Hey kid. See you again.”
“I owe you a lot.”
Ronan who grinned took a step towards her. As the space was twisted a fucking sensation came over me as if all my internal organs were having a dance.
Exactly 30 minutes passed before he returned to Phileon Plaza. My vision which had been dark for a while became brighter and the night sky with a bright moon spread out before my eyes. Ronan muttered softly as he saw that he was stretched out in his arms.
“You’re back.”
Everything that happened felt like a dream. I never thought I would touch the sky beyond the sky. In her heart only the embers of the Navarre ritual proved that what had happened so far was real.
First I’ll have to make a plan to leave for the north. Ronan muttered and stood up. As I was just wiping the dust off my back I heard a familiar voice from behind me.
“You dare to get some fresh air. “Were you at least observing the stars?”
“ok?”
It was a familiar voice but one I hadn’t heard in a long time. Ronan turned his head. Ronan’s eyes widened at the sight of the skinny man.
“…Professor Jaradin?”
“It’s been a while. Did Hae Joo finish well?”
Jaradin the exalted earth mage was standing up straight and looking at himself. It was our first face-to-face meeting in two years. His bony wrists and sunken cheeks still haven’t collapsed.
“It’s been a really long time. It’s me…um?”
Ronan was about to say hello warmly. Suddenly the woman hiding behind Rodin’s back caught her eye. It was quite cute to see her sticking out her face clinging to her like a cicada.
“What about that woman?”
“Ah I guess you didn’t know.”
Ronan extended her index finger and pointed at her woman. Her face looked like I had seen it somewhere. She was startled and hid behind her back again. Jarrodin opened her mouth with a faint smile.
“Say hello. “She is my wife.”
