Episode 350 A direct
descendant of the royal family.
The power to rise to the highest position given to those who have transcended one species.
Whoever obtains it can be called a god and is respected by everyone.
That is the Godhead, and it is what everyone in the world aspires to.
But are there any beings who are born with such a status?
Jaehyun had never heard of this from anyone else.
Besides, the genius girl that Jaehyun saw.
Ruina’s personality was different from the others.
‘Your body can’t contain it. That’s why I got sick.’
It’s completely different from when Ahn Ho-yeon’s mother was. At that time, he had been poisoned by a godhead by someone else and fell into a state of drowsiness.
But now it was definitely different from then.
Aside from how Ruina got her temper, it was questionable why she fell into addiction like she is now.
If it’s a power you can’t handle, you shouldn’t be able to use it at all.
But why does her body keep pumping out steam?
Why are you destroying yourself?
The girl who was supposed to give the answer slowly opened her mouth.
“…Did I tell you that your father died?”
“okay. They said it was killed by humans. By Einherjar.”
Jaehyun said. Seo Eana was a bit surprised because she did not know the details of the incident.
She finally realized why Lars had been so rude to Jaehyun.
Repulsion and disgust towards the race of humans who killed his father. Maybe that’s what motivated him. with an even greater sense of inferiority.
“My father told me when he died. Odin will now swallow everything in the world… but there is no one among us who can properly handle the power of the direct line yet.”
lineal power.
It is the power passed on to the elven royal family that Ina Seo and Aindel had heard before.
To put it simply, it must have meant Alfheim’s sword.
“Does it have anything to do with your body?”
Ruina let out a small sigh and wiggled her hands.
“There has to be. A direct descendant of the royal family… I am the one who was born with that power.”
“…what?”
Jaehyun couldn’t help but be taken aback when the unexpected answer came back.
Deep down, he thought that Seo In-na was a direct descendant of the royal family and had something to do with him.
Didn’t Aindel say that only the direct line of the royal family could use Alfheim’s sword?
But in fact, Ruina was a direct descendant…
“Really? Is that true?!”
Eindel shouted and grabbed Ruina by the shoulder.
Apparently, she, the king, did not know much about him either.
“Yes… Mother, I am sorry. direct descendant of the royal family. I am the one who inherited that power. It’s true that I was born with strong strength…
But I was too weak. I just couldn’t handle the power. So, all this time, my father developed magic to transmit power to others in order to contain it.
All this time, you hid your strength from everyone. I don’t want to lose my daughter in the name of responsibility… that’s what my father said.”
Ruina looked at her with groggy eyes and continued.
“But… my father passed away in the completion stage, and when my father disappeared, I lost the means to restrain my strength, and I felt the pain of the case.”
“That’s right… so…!”
It was Louisa who was especially close to her father.
As a mother, Aindel also had a bit of a sad side.
Didn’t the child follow the mother more closely?
It was the same with his son, Lars. However, from the past, Ruina was closer to her father than to herself. The reason must have been there.
“Luna. Why didn’t you tell me in the first place?”
Lars clenched his fists in anger. But it wasn’t directed at Louisa.
Anger at myself for not knowing the truth. that was just what worked.
“Shut up, Lars. in front of the patient.”
“…….”
Lars said no more. I’m just angry that I’m in a situation like this, but I’m not angry with her.
Didn’t he say that in the first place? If you can only save one, ask to save one of the two other people.
As much as he cares about his family, there will be no worries.
Jiing.
Jaehyun thought he had heard enough answers and continued the treatment.
Not a long time passed after that.
―You have completed the treatment of the designated target.
The sound of the system welcomed Jaehyun.
But then.
“Can I talk to Seo Eana-nim for a moment? Just the two of you.”
Seo Ina tilted her head, but then nodded.
She knew instinctively.
That Ruina’s story had to do with her own growth and something that slept deep within her.
Jaehyun also nodded and got up from his seat.
“Let’s get away for a while. You won’t be sick in the future, so don’t worry.”
* * *
Lars remembered.
His father’s death and Einherjar.
Beings close to immortality who could not be easily killed even if they were cut down.
The army of death, which was as tough as a draug, resilient like a troll, and boasted an absurdly large number of troops.
they killed my father
He already knew that they weren’t human.
That my father was a little foolish.
However, because he loved such a foolish father, he was able to follow his back.
Louisa thought so too.
“But did it end up like this…”
He had to be perfectly honest with himself. if the father
However, he failed to do so and left Ruina in a sick state.
Lars couldn’t quite understand it. What is this and what should I do next?
I couldn’t understand anything.
Then, all of a sudden, I felt my anger shifting to one side.
Odin.
Why is he trying to take over the world?
What does that mean for you?
The world is wide.
Each of the nine worlds is so huge that many races live in harmony.
But why would he put everything under Asgard?
why. Are you stealing someone else’s?
“Las.”
At that moment, a voice came from behind.
“…Min Jaehyun. What’s going on here?”
The tone quickly returned to normal. Also, this one is better.
Jaehyun groaned and sat down next to him.
“Perhaps you would have done that even if you were born with such a fragile body. your father.”
“…okay. I know.”
Lars was more docile in his attitude toward Jaehyun than at the beginning.
He now had weak trust in Jaehyun.
I had never felt this feeling even among elves. Lars felt a laugh leak out of him involuntarily.
To receive comfort other than this from the object you hated the most.
It wasn’t very enjoyable, but I didn’t hate it either.
“You know that I’m not here to comfort you, right?”
“okay.”
“Everyone is waiting for you at the gymnasium. I’m the leader now… but you’re leading them anyway. is not it?”
At that, Lars shrugged and stood up.
“When did you take it from me and say you’re going to come back and give it back? Do you think I would accept that?”
“Accept and sleep. I would have told you to be stronger to say that.”
Lars pretended not to hear what Jaehyun said and headed for the gymnasium.
There, other elves were already busy practicing the shaping of magic tools. It seemed that Jaehyun’s teachings were effective, and that he had a much better weapon in his hand than the one he had used before.
Among them, there were soldiers who had already produced C-class weapons or higher.
Lars took a deep breath, thinking he couldn’t get behind.
After that, focus your magic on your fingertips.
Thinking of Louisa as my father.

Meanwhile, Ruina and Seoina are sitting on a small terrace and drinking tea.
The swelling in Ruina’s legs was almost gone.
Like an elf, her recovery ability was very fast, but the most effective was the increase in her willpower and the effect of her reenactment skill.
For some reason, Seo Ina didn’t look unfamiliar with Ruina at all.
I don’t know why, but I should say it’s a familiar feeling.
It felt like his heart and mana, not just his face, were resonating with each other.
The two drank tea for a while. It was Louisa who spoke first.
“A direct descendant of the royal family. You must have heard it from your mother… but it’s still unfamiliar, right?”
“…yes.”
“Please speak at ease. Jaehyun-nim does that too.”
Seo In-na’s expression subtly changed at the strangely familiar tone of Jae-hyun, but soon returned to normal.
“Ah, your expression has changed. Do you like Jaehyun?”
“……?”
Seo Ina could not answer easily. It was because I wasn’t used to bringing up such a story to someone I hadn’t seen in a while.
It’s true that I like Jaehyun, but talking in front of others is a different matter.
However, Louisa had a smirk on her face.
“I guess so too. But what about this… I also fell in love with Jaehyun. I fell in love.”
“…That’s not okay…”
Seo Eana muttered involuntarily and then covered her mouth. For some reason, it was easy for Jaehyun to throw a fastball and actively step forward, but now it was different.
When I heard that Kim Yoo-jung likes Jae-hyun, I thought I was just waiting for a choice between friendship and love. Ruina really felt like a competitor.
Seo Ina asked in a wary voice.
“…why do you like Jaehyun?”
“Yeah… First of all, he’s handsome. He also treated my body. Oh, the house is all over now. If it wasn’t Jaehyun-nim…….”
“…Jaehyun would like me more. That… I’ve been confessed to before…”
Seo Eana’s eyes subtly shifted, and those words leaked out of her mouth.
Of course, this was the story he had heard when changing the tragedy of Sigurd and Brünhild in the third layer. The confession I heard to clear the quest.
‘…but it’s not a lie… it’ll be fine…!’
Seo In-na nodded her head slightly as she rationalized that.
Louisa smiled mischievously.
“Whoops… Humans don’t live long anyway. Since Jaehyun-nim has attained the status anyway, he should be able to live with him… Then I will be the second wife.”
“……what?”
It was a story completely different from human common sense.
As it turns out, it’s not that rare in the world of elves.
Seo In-na’s brain became confused for a moment, but she didn’t show it, and the two continued to exchange stories.
That’s when the two of them had a trivial conversation.
Suddenly, Ruina put the teacup down and touched the end. Suddenly, a heavy voice escaped from her mouth.
“I think you might be wondering why you can use Alfheim’s sword. You may have heard of that power, but only the direct line of the royal family can use it.”
“…huh. that’s right. However, Aindel still hasn’t revealed the reason…”
“Seo Eana-sama.”
Ruina suddenly raised her head and took her hand.
she was laughing
“I know that Seo Eana-nim and Min Jae-hyun came from the future.”
The moment she heard those words, Seo Ina’s eyes narrowed.
