The great mage who transcends by returning Episode 36
The story before the return ended like that.
I don’t think my father felt the need to say more there.
but.
“Hmm that’s right. Has there ever been a situation where that friend moved like that?”
I could see my father muttering suspicious things and beating the tuk-tuk staff.
It looks like someone’s blood will be added to the staff sooner or later, but let’s not bother with that for now.
‘Come to think of it, what happened to Viscount Nostra?’
I don’t know why he was held hostage and disappeared at some point.
I was walking down the hallway with such thoughts in my mind.
“Ah, Bocchan.”
Isn’t it a familiar face walking from the other side?
was a butler
The butler approached me with a peaceful expression, as if he had forgotten the time when he beat me up with his father and Tot.
“You look healthy, so I feel really comfortable.”
“Thanks to the butler, I don’t think I’m healthy. Did the butler work hard for three years?”
“I’ve had enough. Thanks to someone hee hee.”
A butler who throws a dagger with a smile. What the hell did I go through for the past 3 years, so everyone is looking at me like this.
“What did I do? I just did my job like a warrior.”
“Two years ago, the young master drank a lot in the middle of the night and burned a huge artificial structure while drunk.”
“….”
“As I remember, the reason the young master burned it was that a huge evil spirit was sealed in it….”
“That’s true, butler.”
Demon Wall… ….
When those two words were combined, the situation at that time came to mind.
It was a night when I was in the middle of watching the dying moon and I drank a lot of alcohol.
It was then.
Isn’t there an ominous energy from the castle wall over there? An ominous aura that can’t be seen as a hero… ….
So I immediately went into action.
How to purify the ominous energy of the wall?
After thinking about it, I realized that I am the Great Mage of the 10th Circle.
Yes, the Great Mage of the 10th Circle.
Shouldn’t it be hot to purify?
so….
“Did you put a meteorite in the same spot?”
“Was it hot?”
“You even gave up on packing. It’s hot, and that artificial structure was made by a wizard who had staked everything on Haeju research for three years.”
“oh.”
“Does that sound true?!”
The butler glared at me with a bewildered expression and shouted.
“No matter how compressed Meteor is, a meteorite is a meteorite! The whole area has been completely devastated!”
“Um, that’s right.”
“No, since ancient times, if you are a hero, you have to take responsibility for what you did?! Then, what do you mean by making a claim to the family?!”
“…hmm.”
“Do you know that there is only that! Just like a boy with a lot of accidents, problems will continue everywhere he goes… …!”
“….”
I couldn’t think of anything to refute the butler’s words that fired like a rapid-fire cannon.
really.
what can i do I heard and saw that my karma is right… …But again, it’s not like there’s nothing to say.
“But you always solved the problem.”
“Does the family pay for the costs incurred in the process?”
“At that time, if you don’t use a blood relationship chance, when will you use it?”
At those words, the corners of the butler’s mouth trembled.
The expression on his face shows that he really wants to slap me hard on the back of the head.
However, the butler, who soon regained his composure, sighed and said,
“…Well, it’s not even a day or two that the young master has no conscience, so what are you going to do?”
“yes?”
“When the time comes, Your Excellency breaks his leg, and say, Oh, something has come.”
“….”
For three years, the butler must have trained to die for the law that craved me. Otherwise, there’s no way it would be possible to feed me like breathing.
Anyway, the butler walked next to me and had a small talk like he always had.
‘Come to think of it, even before returning, Master Merdin had a bad mouth, but it was all for my sake.’
Even when I said harsh words, there was a clear reason that it was to save my motivation in the end.
Yes, Master Merdin too.
The butler was always like that.
At some point, if you see them, they walk side by side. Even if it wasn’t like that, it was always there when I looked back.
“hmm.”
Thinking so, what can I say as a butler… ….
‘A family not connected by blood?’
If I had a grandfather, I wondered if it would feel like this. I can’t say this even if I die.
“butler.”
“Why are you like that?”
“Long live.”
I threw it like that in passing.
At that moment, the butler who was walking side by side stopped for a moment and looked at me quietly.
“Of course you should.”
He said that and smiled.
“Even if you look at it like this, it is the 8th circle. Like I said, you’re going backwards in age these days, aren’t you?”
“That’s good.”
So I walked down the aisle with the butler.
The hallway, as always, was long enough for us to talk.
* * *
Upon returning to the room through the hallway, the traitors of the world appeared.
“Lian Aileen….”
As soon as I was in danger, they turned away from me like ghosts.
When I entered, the two of them averted their gaze without asking who came first.
“Hehehe.”
“Uhm.”
look at those I was just thinking of running away from the beginning.
“To be honest, I didn’t know you guys would abandon me.”
“Oh, that’s a bit.”
“What else?”
“Okay.”
Eileen said to me with an expression asking what she was talking about.
“We didn’t go together for a day or two, didn’t you expect that much? Trust that… …? Could I say… ….”
“Oh, don’t be bullshit.”
Since when did he get to spit out bullshit like this for granted?
It’s just really sad.
Anyway.
“After finishing a few things in the family, I go to Gyo-guk. It won’t take too long.”
“By the way, what the hell are you going to do in Kyoguk, making it your destination?”
“In a way, isn’t that my starting point?”
Warrior.
All of my stories eventually started in Kyoguk. It is the same whether before or after the return.
“So you want to go. In order to give up the title of hero.”
“…Was that something you could quit just because you quit?”
“I’m not going to do it, so what are you going to do?”
I have already done all my duties.
The Demon God has disappeared, and now the demons have also fallen to a level where they are not a big threat.
‘The demon from last time must have been resolved in the Siegfried line after all.’
The world no longer needs warriors. I also can’t be tied to the title of a hero forever.
“but.”
Ryan nodded at my words.
“There is no need to keep the position of a warrior. If you decide you don’t need it, then you really will.”
“Of course, I’m not trying to get rid of the hero itself. Maybe I just want to put it down symbolically… ….”
It’s just like that.
As Mikhail, not as a ‘hero’.
After thinking about doing what I wanted to do for three years, that was the conclusion I came to.
“So, until now, meeting old ties one after another was like a ritual of your own.”
“What is it?”
Should I rewind it backwards?
Even before I reunited with these guys for three years, I met other people and solved the problem.
I decided to do it anyway.
“By the way, what is the small problem to be solved here?”
“First, about Wise.”
“ah.”
At my words, the two of them nodded their heads without saying who came first. Both of them know about Wise.
The fact that Wise’s true identity is Solomon, the founder of our family.
“Of course, Wise will have to figure it out on his own, but I think we need to intervene at least. and….”
“And what?”
Aileen looked at me curiously and asked,
The answer is not difficult.
“religion.”
“….”
At that moment, silence fell between the two of us.
Riuel was in the corner, chewing on snacks, so that’s out of the question.
Anyway, the two of them looked at me with eyes asking what kind of bullshit they were talking about.
“that…religion? There is no god.”
“What is a person? If you don’t have someone to rely on, aren’t they creatures that rely on you even if you create them?”
What a sad world.
It is clear that God does not exist, but still wandering in search of the object of faith… ….
At that, Ryan’s expression turned a little serious.
“Wait, could it be that a pseudo-religion is spreading in your estate? It’s not another territory… …In that Walpurgis estate… …?”
“Surely that is serious.”
Aileen accepted Lian’s words with a dark expression.
“The family of the Marquis of Walpurgis is currently the most powerful faction within the Empire. However, if it is a pseudo-religion that takes root in such a place, there is a high possibility that it will be bigger than you think.”
“Tell me immediately Mikhail.”
Ryan looked at me with sharp eyes and said. The serious look of a guy I haven’t seen in a long time.
“What exactly is the god that ‘religion’ enshrines?”
“It is a powerful being. To be honest, neither of you can do anything about it.”
“…!”
At those words, the two of them trembled without saying who came first.
It’s an expression that I didn’t know that such words would come out of my mouth.
“you…Enough to say that? What kind of existence… ….”
“Besides, you are smart. Even with knowledge, the two of you cannot do anything. To be honest, I’m pretty nervous too.”
“What is that….”
An even more serious atmosphere.
The two of them were really nervous now, even putting their hands on the sword.
Eileen said cautiously.
“Then tell me. Whatever it is, you need to know the information first to prepare for it or not.”
“…okay.”
Both of them definitely got it. If my heart is this firm, it would be right for me to answer too.
“There is a tower that wizards climb on the continent. In that tower, excellent mages as good as our family are studying.”
“…yes.”
“But they have recently started to believe in something. Sorcerers who don’t believe in God are starting to believe in something blindly.”
“…!”
The two are getting really serious now.
Their expressions were so serious that even a demon would think they were resurrected.
“What is that?”
“Yeah right….”
I shouted at them with my arms wide open.
“My country has a god…!”
“….”
“….”
The serious expressions on the two men’s faces relaxed, and they tilted their heads.
“what?”
“No, it’s a simple story.”
They don’t seem to understand, so let me explain again.
“They say that a pseudo-religion that believes in Mikhail Walpurgis is thriving in our estate.”
I was really surprised when I first heard this. Anyway, it’s not a pseudo-religion.
As a warrior, this is not.
“So, join me in eradicating pseudo-religion….”
It was a moment when I was looking at my two precious colleagues with those words.
“hmm.”
Swoop.
He smiled wide as he saw the two rushing at him with their swords out like ghosts.
“< Teleport >.”
At first, I decided to run away.
