[ Episode 211. Appearance]
Morheim’s history has been long, but it hasn’t been that long since it changed to what it is like recently.
Morhaime, who had a strong image of a weak literary man, was a family of founding contributors and a duke, but his power was not strong, so he was always hit here and there.
In the meantime, an incident occurred.
The Benzema Marquis family, which was the strongest family in the West.
The Marquis of Benzema asked Morhaime for an arranged marriage.
In fact, it didn’t seem like a big deal because it was common for a marquess family to marry a duke, but the problem was that the marquess family unilaterally informed them.
And what made this possible was the logic of the era, which was determined only by power, regardless of status.
Unlike other families, who generally had power commensurate with their status, Morhaime was weak and therefore a target.
“The enemies have noticed.”
“It went rather well. Kill all those who retreat.”
A muscular man in a white suit gave the order on the bloody ground.
It was the appearance of Minus Morhaime, who had participated in the battlefield.
“Hehe! Hehehehe!”
“Danard. Guy Clousoe begs you.”
“This madman? oh my.”
Danard sighed as he looked at the hunchbacked man with saliva dripping from his mouth.
His combat power is equal to that of an Auror Master, but this mentally troubled man only listened to Minus’ orders, so it was only natural for Danyrd’s reaction to be complicated.
“Today I am going out too. huh.”
Minus smiled, brushing her blonde hair.
His blood was boiling, and he was greatly encouraged by the scent of blood he hadn’t felt in a long time.
“I’ve been stressed out with office work, but… that’s good.”
As if those words were a signal, the Morheim family warriors ran out.
They were wearing uniforms that were not uniform, like those of mercenaries rather than regular troops of the family, and were wearing various types of equipment that were more practical.
“Dannard! I’ll go first! haha!”
“Kuk-kuk. Take care of Clusoe or work hard!”
“Oh my…”
Without saying a word to his fellow runners, Dannard chased after the rampaging Clusso.
And Minus shouted with all his might and removed allies who stood in his way with both hands.
“Get out of the way! I am the first!”
His expression stained with madness was more suitable for the Morheim family than anyone else.
Predatory Morhaime.
Starting with the Marquess Benzema, the most influential family in the West, a mad family that purged with blood all the families that had persecuted Morheim for a long time.
The golden Minus, which took the temperament intact from Hogma Mohaim, the mad dog of the former Duke of Moheim, the origin of the madness, searched for the enemy with bloodshot eyes.
“In the name of Morhaime! what! article! lee! Kill!”
**
The charter has changed.
The barbarians who entered the outer castle and the barbarians who had just crossed the outer wall were crushed before the overwhelming firepower of the Morheim family.
Because they couldn’t even secure a route to retreat, they were attacked by mercenaries inside and Morhaim outside.
“It seems that the situation has changed?”
Magner laughed as he wiped the blood from between his lips.
However, the black magician was not at all embarrassed.
“Anyway, my target is you guys. And since I’m being asked to help, the battlefield doesn’t really matter.”
“You can’t do anything about that?”
“Believe it or not, it’s none of my business, this trivial thing.”
The possessed soldiers collapsed one by one.
However, it didn’t just collapse, it melted away terribly, spewing poisonous mist.
“Back off!”
Magner hurriedly shouted as those caught in the poison mist fell, bleeding from their ears, eyes and mouth.
“Anyway, this war itself is not aimed at victory haha!”
Suddenly –
Vivian rushes in and cuts the one who is talking, but soon someone else takes over.
“We are a ‘assembly’. everywhere and nowhere Ends like me were everywhere. The true darkness didn’t even move.”
“Ah…”
People trembled in fear every time he opened his mouth.
Even with that monster-like ability, I feel hopeless that I can’t even touch it, but black magicians are worse than that……
“This is just the beginning. The darkness that will soon cover the world will cover you…”
“You were there.”
At that time, a voice from a third person that I had never heard before came out.
Recognizing the owner by the voice, Vivian turned her head to find the owner.
“Adrias?”
A sudden tidal wave occurred.
And the tsunami hit the spire attached to the castle.
Kwagwagwang—-!
The spire shook with a huge shock.
It didn’t collapse as much as the magic circle of mana resistance was installed, but it had enough destructive power to damage someone inside it.
Then, the possessed soldiers collapsed all at once like puppets whose strings had been cut.
“You ran away.”
“The real Adrias senior.”
The one who showed up late was Adrias, as Vivian expected.
Fione confirmed his figure and collapsed in exhaustion, and the academy students who knew him spat out cheers.
“It’s Adrias-senpai!”
“Senior Adrias! We live!”
Confirming Adrias’ identity by their cheers, Magner approached him.
“Are you Mr. Cromwell?”
“That’s right.”
“Thank you for your help. But, excuse me, may I ask how you got into this inner sanctuary?”
Fione frowned at Magner’s words.
Doubts about the situation where you should be grateful just for saving him.
“It’s a rude question, but as a commander here…”
“I met Count Borgiyan. He told me.”
Magner wiped his face at the name of his master, which is unusually common today.
“Is that so. Thank you for speaking up.”
“Earl Borgien went safely to the imperial palace, so you don’t have to worry.”
Hearing that he was all right, the soldiers’ complexions turned bad.
As Adrias tilted her head at the sight of her holding back her anger, Vivian approached her.
“Adrias.”
“I’m glad Vivian is safe.”
“I have too!”
Fione hurriedly intervened, but Vivian covered Adrias with her body, as if refusing to yield this time.
“no. It’s mine now.”
“yes?”
Vivian made eye contact with Adrias, blocking Adrias with a bold face.
Adrias looked away awkwardly for a moment at that burdensome gaze, then patted Vivian on the shoulder.
“Are you hurt anywhere?”
“huh.”
“The battle isn’t over yet, so let’s go. You are resting here.”
“huh.”
Vivian nodded and Adrias immediately turned around.
The students shouted behind him.
“be careful!”
“Senior Adrias! Don’t get hurt!”
“Please protect Borgijen!”
Students who knew his skills indirectly were able to look at his participation with a look of anticipation.
Borgien’s soldiers also began to have hope that they could live while watching the flags of Morheim and Cromwell fluttering in the distance.
“Victory to Borgijen!”
“Wow!”
The siege of Borghien was heading towards the second act.
**
“Oh my gosh. I never thought you would come to this humble place.”
“haha. It’s shabby. It’s too much for this old man to be.”
Aika Imp, who had been smoking tobacco in a long pipe, greeted the unknown Dwalski while lying on a bench.
There was a strange atmosphere in the place where only the two of them existed.
“so? You said you came because of your anger?”
“Yes. Now I have to take him.”
“Huh. Are you taking me?”
Aika just looked at Morne with an incomprehensible snort.
But even without a change in emotion, he just stood there with a smile on his face.
“Tell me exactly. Are you really determined to take me?”
“Exactly what our chief wants.”
“Isn’t it surprising that the world’s Morn Dwarski is being swung around by a kid?”
“bantling?”
Morne’s smile cracked.
“Be careful what you say, witch.”
“why? You’re a kid, right? Then you call a kid who is only 20 or so, what the heck…”
Sreung-
Bang!
A black blade suddenly appeared out of thin air and pierced the side of Aika’s face.
But Aika didn’t blink an eye and smirked.
“Oh my goodness! be scared Are you sure you came here to commit violence?”
“Ignoring Adrias Cromwell is the same as ignoring me for entrusting everything to him. You are ignoring the old lady.”
“Hi go. okay okay. The old man’s temper doesn’t change.”
“That’s not something a ghost with a small age gap with an old woman would say.”
Eika, who changed her appearance freely, just smiled.
“So what are you going to give me? You’re not going to take it empty-handed, are you?”
“In the first place, it would have been our turn?”
“It’s not yet time. Wouldn’t you have to pay a price to get it in advance?”
“Hmm…….”
Morne, who showed a look of concern for a moment, opened his mouth slowly.
“I won’t kill you when you unite the coven.”
The corners of Eika’s mouth twitched at the arrogant words that soon escaped from his mouth.
Then, her unbearable laughter shook the space.
“Ahahahaha!”
Morne returned to his calm demeanor and continued with a smile.
“Aka Imp. You were already destined to die for beating our chief. That’s a lot of concessions for me.”
“I don’t know. Are you trying to kill me laughing? I will die laughing before you can save me!”
Eika, who was still giggling, nodded, wiping the tears from her eyes.
“good. take it.”
“A wise decision.”
“A wise decision? No, it’s simply in return for making me laugh. Well, I tend to laugh a lot, but it’s because I’ve been laughing the most lately…”
After saying that, Aika caught her breath and pointed to her seat.
“Now, while you’re here, let’s talk. Can you do that much?”
“I will.”
When Morne sat down, a black masked monster, who appeared from nowhere and when, poured tea and disappeared.
“Thank you.”
“Your boss is quite talkative these days. Do you know?”
“You are a wonderful person.”
“Anyway, I don’t care how this war goes, but Fade and Jester must have been pretty pissed off. It would be pretty dangerous if those two targeted Adrias Cromwell during the war?”
“haha. He is not endangered by just such a thing.”
“Huh huh?”
Aika looked at Morne’s face with interest and naturally turned the conversation around.
“Dragon disease, giant undead, and the Bone Dragon.”
“…….”
“I know that you are not undead. Because you already have your location exposed to us. A little suspicious about Pissy Keller? Or…”
Eika bit the smoking pipe and the conversation was cut off for a moment.
She blew out the smoke that was in her mouth and made a certain shape.
That figure is Adrias Cromwell no matter who sees it.
“Could it be this guy? Otherwise you wouldn’t bet everything on a young warlock who’s only your grandson?”
“haha. I also want those undead to be our chief’s familiars. But unfortunately, the place where the dragon appeared and the location where the chief was located are completely different.”
“It’s fun.”
Eika’s eyes shone with lust.
“It’s really fun.”
“What do you mean?”
“Isn’t that the dragon you saw? It’s interesting that you don’t know who it is… It’s been a while since the meeting has been high, but I have a feeling that it might change a little. I don’t know if that’s a good thing or a bad thing?”
“It will change because of us. Why don’t you join us this time instead?”
“well. It’s not that there’s no possibility at all, but right now, nothing has been proven? And I have a lot of other things to do, so I’m busy.”
Looking at Eika with a mischievous expression on her face, Morne vaguely thought that it was good that she came here alone.
Aika Imp.
She is a volatile and dangerous witch.
Although he wasn’t harming himself, his expression smelled dangerous.
“If what I’m doing now works out, then I’ll think about it again.”
“Don’t do that.”
“haha! Don’t make that face when you don’t intend to embrace me in the first place! You just want to kill me.”
“Did you catch it? Heh heh heh.”
After a slightly loose conversation, Aika gestured.
Then, suddenly, the black masked man reappeared and approached her.
“Give your anger to that old man.”
“Thank you.”
Morn was soon guided by the masked man and disappeared from the place where Aika was.
After he disappeared, Eika burned the smoking pipe again and let out smoke.
“Adrias Cromwell, Adrias Cromwell, Adrias Cromwell……”
Aika repeated Adrias’ name like someone who had become strange.
