Episode 1017. He is the guardian of the nine heavens
. Despite Fabian’s remark that he was a ranger in the deep and rugged Montanosa Mountains, the younger brother’s expression was agitated.
Realizing that Elio might not know about the Ranger unit, Fabian added a word.
“A unit that specializes in reconnaissance is called a ranger unit.”
“No matter what. All you have to do is not get lost.”
As if confirming it, he looked into Fabian’s eyes.
Fabian swallowed dry saliva and said as if he were determined.
“I will do my best.”
“Okay, let’s go together. By the way, I don’t know what’s in this area (Tameion). So you better not fall from my side. Do you see what I mean?”
“I will follow Elio like a shadow.”
“Yeah, I really like that attitude. Then let’s move slowly.”
I started exploring around the rift with my rival Fabian.
Although Fabian said he was from the Ranger unit, he still moved with the ice wall in sight as much as possible.
Not only demons, but also monsters appeared, so he was as careful as possible.
Fortunately, the morning passed without incident.
It is because of the appearance of the Ice Ogre, the strongest life form on land, that the nearby demons fled.
around noon.
Yeonjeokha and Fabian sat facing each other in a clearing in the snowy forest.
The younger brother asked the trembling Fabian.
“hey. Are you a knight? But why are you so cold?”
Then Fabian replied with a bluish face.
“Even a knight cannot go outside for more than three hours.”
“I heard you’re going to stay in front of the rift for three days?”
“I can’t survive without warming up in the tent, even for a moment.”
“Is Gyeongdo like that?”
“Elio-nim is special. All knights warm up once every three hours.”
“Why did you say you would follow me with that kind of stamina?”
“Elio-sama, don’t you have any Fire Stones? Even a small piece.”
“What is a Fire Stone?”
Seeing Elio’s expression as he asked, Fabian despaired.
He could have died if he hadn’t had the Fire Stone.
If this happens, he will have to return to the rift.
‘It’s a big deal. I think it will take at least two hours to crack.’
I don’t know if I can go all the way to the cracks with my body like this.
“Fire Stone is a stone that contains the energy of fire. So if you light it up, it will keep burning for a long time. If you have even a piece, you can burn the frozen tree.”
“A stone catches fire?”
“Yes, it is not just any stone, it must contain the energy of fire. Did you see the fist-sized Fire Stone being burned in the barracks?”
“Wasn’t that coal? I thought it was coal because it was burning red.”
“If you burn coal like that indoors, you die. Only the Fire Stone can be used indoors.”
“okay. So, if you don’t burn the wood, you have to go back to Alpha Company?”
Then Fabian said with a sorrowful face.
“I don’t know if I can go all the way to the cracks with my physical condition.”
“Why does the knight sound so weak? Let’s light a fire first.”
“You can’t do without a piece of Fire Stone. The trees in the Great Snowfield are frozen so you can’t make a fire with tinder.”
“Abandon the habit of giving up on everything first. It’s like taking a break every 3 hours. Do you have a set time? Or should I just warm myself up?”
“Of course, you just need to melt your body. But to start a fire in the great snow, you need a fire stone.”
“If you don’t have teeth, you live with your gums. If you stay still, it will get colder, so gather some wood.”
Fabian trembled and said, as if he had reached his limit.
“Ha, this is Mana. A tree that has been frozen for thousands of years cannot be thawed unless it is a fire stone.”
“That’s how people say it’s annoying. Get up and move!”
Fabian reluctantly stood up at the Sword Master’s screams, pulled out an armful of trees nearby, and brought them back.
The tree that Fabian, who was in love with him, had saved, was struck with the Cheondun Sword, trimmed to an appropriate size, and piled up.
“It is useless. It won’t catch on fire unless the wizard throws a fireball at it.”
The younger brother, who had piled up the trees moderately, suddenly looked back at Fabian.
“Sir Fabian, promise me that you will keep your affair with me a secret for the rest of your life.”
“Hey, if you promise, will it catch fire?”
“Is that so?”
“Hey, I promise. Light a fire, please.”
“I bet the honor of a knight.”
“I promise you on the honor of being a knight.”
It was only then that he reached out his hand into the void. It is to find the talisman stored in the space warehouse Mahadam.
A wad of yellow paper suddenly popped out of the empty air, and Fabian’s eyes widened as if tearing.
“Ah, did you have a subspace artifact?”
The words, ‘Even if you use that paper as kindling, it won’t start a fire’ came to his throat, but he held it in.
I rummaged through the talismans that were connected.
They are looking for the flames.
Eventually, the rival enemy who found the flame department threw it into the firewood pile.
“Gucheonhyeonnyeo, I only rely on you, so show me the flame with your divine power [九天玄女 但憑fire焰威神力]!”
In an instant, the fire from the amulet engulfed the pyre.
Fire-.
The flames were so intense that the frozen pyre quickly became red hot.
Fabian was startled by Elio’s unexpected magic, but instinctively drew closer to the fire.
I don’t know if this is a dream or reality as I watch an armful of trees burn as easily as branches.
“Elio-sama, is that barbaric magic?”
Unlike ordinary wizards who use spell chanting, Elio asked using paper.
“Oh, similar.”
I threw in more trees with a nonchalant face.
This is because the firepower of the flame section was so strong that the log burned quickly.
The roaring flames extinguished only after burning all the beautiful trees that Fabian had brought with them.
“Elio-sama, don’t you need a tree? You don’t need the Fire Stone anymore.”
Then, Yeonjeokha shook his head.
“If I run out of amulets, I can’t light a fire. So it’s good to have a fire stone. Is the fire stone on the ground? Are you in the basement?”
“I heard they are both above and below ground.”
“So you’re saying you just need to find a stone that contains the energy of fire?”
“That’s right.”
“It is simple.”
I didn’t think it was a difficult thing to do. It was because I thought I would be able to find fire with a spirit.
“It’s not as easy as you think. It is difficult to feel the energy of fire unless you are a Elementalist.”
“You said you were training mana? Can’t you even sense the energy of fire?”
“Because mana is a more fundamental power. For example, a wizard can use fire magic… but cannot detect the energy of fire. It is possible to find the energy of fire with search magic.”
“Can’t you sense it with your pure ability?”
“That’s right. A person who can do that without the help of magic is called a Elementalist.”
Hearing Fabian’s words, he nodded his head.
It was strange that Mana couldn’t do what Reiki could do.
“It’s fun. I think it’s possible to find energy with a spiritual skill.”
“It must be because spirits and spirits are based on nature. But mana is different from them.”
“Still, the elemental sage treats you well?”
“It is because the elemental spirit is also not an individual effort, but a power given from the sky.”
“aha! Are dogs and cows treated with disrespect for what they can achieve through hard work?”
“Rather, it is because the power given from heaven is stronger than the power obtained through human efforts.”
“Ah…”
It seemed that he knew some of the principles of this world of matchmaking.
Anyone can be chosen by the creator god, so should it be fair, or should it be said that it is dirtier than the chosen person even if a person tries hard…
.
“I didn’t know that Elio was a follower of Shastra Parakti.”
“What are you talking about? Why is Shastra Parakti suddenly appearing?”
For a moment, Fabian looked at Elio with bewildered eyes.
Why did you come out after using magic in the name of Shastra Parakti?
“Didn’t you do it in the name of Shastra Parakti when you did the fire magic a while ago?”
“I? I did it under the name of ‘Gucheonhyeonnyeo’?”
“Oops! are you kidding me now? Even now, he still says ‘Shastra Parakti’…” It
was only then that everyone realized that it was the translation of the artifact.
‘wait? You translated Nine-Chun Hyeonnyeo into Shastra Parakti?’
When they say ‘Shastra Parakti’, it sounds the same to you, but when you pronounce ‘Nine Heavenly Maiden’, it seems to be translated as ‘Shastra Parakti’.
“Tell me about Shastra Parakti.”
“You really don’t know?”
“I don’t know, so ask.”
Fabian nodded, then raised his finger.
“What do you see over there?”
“sky?”
“Yes, that’s right. It is the sky of this world. Shastra Parakti is the guardian deity of the nine heavens, including this world.”
“Nine Heavens?”
“There is a saying that you are the owner of the ninth dimension. Only the apostles of Shastra Parakti know the exact thing, right?”
“So, is the creator of this world Shastra Parakti by any chance?”
“Oops! Could it be? The God who created this world is Mana Phrases.”
“I heard that Shastra Parakti is the lord of the nine heavens?”
“I said there was such a thing. When did I say I was the owner?”
“Then the Creator God created this world and the Guardian God is Shastra Parakti, right?”
“That is the orthodoxy.”
“Hmm!”
A heavy groan escaped from his mouth.
I thought that Gucheonhyeonnyeo was one of the many Jinseon (眞仙), but when I came here, it was just the tip of the iceberg.
A guardian deity of nine dimensions?
That’s something you can’t even imagine.
“Elio uses magic in the name of Shastra Parakti, so why do you ask me about him?”
After thinking for a moment, he spread his palm out to Fabian, who was in love with him.
“Can you see the ring? This is the interpreter artifact I received from the court mage. I don’t really know the continental language. It was because the language of our tribe and the continental language were different.”
“ah!”
A short exclamation escaped from Fabian’s mouth.
After hearing Elio’s explanation, I understood what had happened.
“I guess the name is different in Elio-sama’s language?”
“uh. Call it ‘Gucheonhyeonnyeo’.”
“haha. I don’t know what you said now, but it sounds like ‘Shastra Parakti’ to my ears. Somehow, that’s why you sometimes said things strangely.”
“The interpreter is not good, so I sometimes get misunderstood by nobles.”
“You will get better if you learn the common language of the continent. I heard that interpreting becomes smoother when you know the meaning of a word.”
“okay. Anyway, take everything you see and hear with me to the grave. Failure to do so could result in loss of honor… and life.”
He didn’t want his work to be hindered by his rival Fabian.
If he showed any signs of bragging about it, I would kill him to keep his mouth shut.
“Don’t worry. If I die, I will die, and I will not betray my honor.”
Fabian boasted.
Even if it wasn’t honor, he had no intention of betraying Elio, who used sword master-class swordsmanship and even magic.
The roaring tree turned into red charcoal.
In the gentle warmth, Yeonjeokha and Fabian took out the energy balls they were carrying and put them in their mouths.
Fabian, who had been chomping on it, said with an emotionless face.
“I thought I would freeze to death, but life really is…”
“Shh!”
Yeonjeokha cut off Fabian’s words.
Fabian, quick-witted, held his breath and looked at the enemy.
Before long, a strange sound came from the wind – neither man’s nor beast’s.
