Chapter 85. Meng (7)
Excessive.
If you think about it, it is Calian who has the most ability to ascend to the throne. Having learned both the insight of a bird of prey and the venom of a snake, if his abilities were fully revealed, Calian would never be able to walk on the red carpet of Arfia.
If only Calian had insight and venom.
If only I had those two things, I would have done that.
But Kalyan had other excesses. Even if everything Calian possessed was revealed one day, there was an excess that would make it impossible to block his path, even if he hid his hostility behind a clumsy smile.
‘Anyway, I gave you a nickname that fits you perfectly.’
‘Yes, Master. I like it too. cat.’
Sharpened the claws of a wild beast.
Flowers were born to hide it.
I have learned magic that can hide even the accumulated aura, a power that can be hidden at any time and can be revealed again at any time, and swordsmanship that will prevent you from even noticing that you are missing out on life. However, it has white fingers and bright red lips that will make you forget about its sharp claws.
So Kalyan was okay.
It didn’t matter if I passed by. Even if he lived as a tyrant standing on a red carpet, he would never die as an unlucky king who would dye the city square in red.
– My brother talked about rocks.
But it wasn’t Planz.
– Are you talking about the story about falling off a rock cliff after drinking?
– not. I
– you shouldn’t care about that. It’s a very energetic period, so I understand your desire to show off your skills a bit, but you should give up any thoughts of imitating him. My brother’s long plump waist will be broken into pieces.
– ……Don’t say it.
– Didn’t I break my brother’s back and the knife in pieces to save him in Secretia? I put in a lot of effort that day to save my brother’s back, so I’ll experience it for myself at least for my hard work. Don’t be stubborn and be quiet…
– Hey.
…… what.
Even though I am depriving myself of all the coolness that the black cat so beautifully explained just a moment ago has given me.
In any case, Plantz was not a person who was okay with having too much. He was different from Kalian, who, even if his excesses were known, it would only be a little more difficult and bothersome, but would not cause any trouble in his life.
– Or are you talking about the incident where you only broke a garden rock instead of the head of the count who was arguing with Arianne? no. I don’t think I told you that… Anyway, if I ever told you that, you shouldn’t follow suit.
– I didn’t.
– My brother’s fist was more painful than I expected, but that’s because it was a pea fist that grew by eating only grass. I don’t know who doesn’t like it, but my handsome brother’s hair will fly away. Just talk to me.
– …… not.
– Otherwise, what kind of rock are you talking about? Oh, are you talking about the rocky cliffs on the beach where you can hear whales crying? I’m curious, but you can’t hear me. My brother’s hearing is still not good enough to pick up and hear those sounds.
– Keep barking.
– The reason you suddenly bring up the past is because you feel bored with quiet people gathering at the beach. Wouldn’t it be my brother’s duty to at least tease him from afar?
– you. a little.
– Either that or that. Brother, did you catch something smart?
– I got caught.
– Is that why it started to get cut down?
– okay.
– To whom?
– Danu.
– What happened?
– It just so happened.
– so. Should I go cut down the tree roots?
– and.
– I’m hungry.
– … Raw oysters. I’ll buy it for you.
– yes.
Pop!
– Not right away, but slowly… Kalyan.
– …….
– …… Hey.
This is what happened.
Plantz ‘had no intention’ of calling Calian right away. Knowing full well how many people were going through life and death in Whitlin at this moment, I certainly had no intention of bringing Calian back to the city of elves. It’s true that it didn’t exist.
It’s just that I didn’t listen to the person who was okay with being exposed for everything he was saying, but he wasn’t okay with being exposed for everything he was doing.
– I was surprised when Sir Ren, the guard knight, came to the Duke’s residence. It is said that Lady Lin has seen Her Majesty.
– yes. I told Arianne the story.
-Has there been an accident?
– yes. This is an accident that could put you at risk as well.
– More than that… where is my son now?
– Whitlin, father.
I got so excited when my brother asked me to make one tonggam in return for buying raw oysters.

They said it would be the power of the harpies.
Arsene said that he must have stolen the ability to absorb fireballs and spit them out or nullify shields from the Harpy.
I had no idea its power was this much.
“They are flooding into a total of four locations: at the end of the 3rd floor hallway, the 5th floor study, the 5th floor bedroom, and the basement liquor store. The entrance to the basement warehouse was blocked by exploding magic bullets, but the 3rd and 5th floors were unable to respond.”
“What is the damage situation?”
“The two wizards who first encountered them on the third floor, and one of the knights who took them out, were seriously injured. We immediately moved them to the healer and deployed all wizards to the rear.”
Hina’s healing power was revealed without any problems.
Not only did it manifest, it did much more. A protective shield was activated to cover the entire castle. Even so, he still had the strength to treat the seriously injured.
The magic power of the wizards was also no problem. Magic items, including magic bullets, worked properly, and Xeon’s wizards also performed magic without any effort.
Only the Balkan wizards and Euria were unable to implement magic.
“Even if we keep blocking the secret passage, if there are only a few people, we will eventually be pushed back. There is no need to sacrifice our lives in vain, so we retreat little by little.”
“Yes, Vice Commander.”
I thought about it amid the commotion.
In a situation where I couldn’t even use Silent, I thought desperately. I thought about it while pulling out all the knowledge I had about the monster called Harpy.
“Is it true that magic bullets work?”
“Yes, that’s right, Vice Commander. I confirmed.”
“There are magic bullets in the Lord Castle weapons warehouse, so the wizards of the 1st and 2nd divisions of the 4th Division should bring the magic bullets and install them in the passage of the west wing.”
It’s not a brigade under a division, it’s a regiment, it’s a mass platoon. Why is there a squad of 10 people all of a sudden?
I was itchy because I didn’t know about Calian’s plan, which was to name it a legion from the beginning regardless of the number of people so that there would be no backlash from the nobles even if the size of the army increased in the future, but I put all my curiosity aside and started thinking about whatever I could.
“It is difficult to respond properly if the floors are divided. We retreat slowly, pass through the west wing passage, explode magic bullets, and block the west wing and wait while those blocking the passage turn outside and approach.”
“Yes, Vice Commander.”
“Knights will not be deployed to blockade the west wing. All of them will go into battle. Wizards who use magic weapons will go forward as trained, and if they are trained with a bow, take out their bows. Wizards who cannot fight can go to the west wing and prepare for blockade work.”
“All right.”
Things turned around quickly.
Before long, the West Wing was sealed off with an explosion that shook the entire Yeongju Castle.
Zeon’s soldiers, who could no longer approach because the passage was blocked, went out and began pounding on the outer wall of the lord’s castle.
After that, all the wizards sat down.
I tried my best to manifest magic somehow.
In the meantime, I continued to think.
In the end, if the battle ended without me being able to use magic, the head of the Wizards’ Association, who had confidently said that he would help me, didn’t stand up, so I didn’t want to betray the request of the little vice-captain leader who said that Euria would be able to figure out a solution, so it’s not Adelia, but that guy. I couldn’t bear to wag my tail and retreat in front of the wolves.
-…… Dismissal!
I decided to bring back the magic.
However, like Calian, I was unable to steal the mana from those who intercepted the flow of mana. This is because Calian and Euria, who fight by freely changing the shape, direction, and size of the mana containing aura, are different.
I can’t be like a dull Kalyan who doesn’t even know that I have awakened a similar ability to Hina, who knows how to move natural mana without much calculation in order to swing the sword in the direction and shape I want. Euria was like Arsene or any other wizard who had to complete 30 magic calculations to rotate 30 ice spears in different directions.
Therefore, I was unable to read the flow of mana that was trying to nullify the magic and cut it off. instead.
“Open the door.”
Whether it was wearing a shield, sending out fireballs, pouring water, or using lightning, it beat the existing methods of expressing magic that concentrated magical power externally.
A magic bullet explodes, doesn’t it?
Doesn’t the magic of the calculation formula that was completed from the beginning appear as is?
So, I created already completed magic inside my body. It embodies the dual-attribute magic of concentrating electricity within a water bead. He created countless small, harmless water droplets containing even smaller amounts of electricity and extracted them from the body. I gathered it up and held it in my hand.
– Pajijik pajik!
I woke up holding the bundle of electricity I created in my hand like a flower, as if congratulating myself for surviving without being electrocuted by my magic power.
“also.”
Arsene, who had said countless words in just two letters, turned back. Then, with the wizards behind him, he looked at the knights who were standing guard in front of the outer wall, which could be destroyed at any moment, and opened his mouth.
“Lord Verne.”
Nod.
Hina stood up and came to Euria’s side. Arsene continued.
“The wizard is on standby. If Sir Bern finds those playing with our magic, Siren will eliminate them. From then on, we can fight as much as we want, whether we blow them away or burn them.”
“All right!”
“Most of them are warriors of the great desert. I know this from experience, but they are strong.”
“I know!”
“That’s right, they are swordsmen rolling around on the sand. How can they defeat the Balkan knight Nabulaengi?”
“you’re right!”
“And if the corps commander comes in the middle of the day, all of our work will be taken away. We have to finish it before he comes in order to get a raise. Do you understand?”
“I know!”
Arsene paused for a moment and grinned.
“Let’s go hunting.”
The knights laughed together and moved quickly.
They removed not only the locks but also the fasteners on the door that were blocking the door. And then I pushed that thick iron door towards them.
– Gigi geek…… Cooung!
The huge iron gate falls down with a loud noise.
Zeon’s guys standing near the iron gate bit my foot without me knowing. Balkan knights poured into the empty space thus created.
– Pajijik!
-Shoooooo!
Once you learn the method, will it be difficult to apply it?
An enormous amount of electricity created at a microscopic scale that could not be seen with the naked eye gathered again at the tips of Euria’s fingers. The magic, which was created to gather in one place and shoot straight away, flew towards the warriors.
– Kwasik!
A warrior’s sword was broken as it fell on a Balkan knight. Nevertheless, the electric attacks did not stop. It climbed up the hand of the guy holding the sword and wrapped around his entire body. It was passed on to the others who had gathered to block Vulcan’s counterattack, instantly creating a larger empty space.
Meanwhile, the second knights came out.
Another knight’s sword extends from behind the knight who blocked the incoming attack and pierces the warrior. As the sword is drawn, the first knight’s sword strikes the next warrior’s neck. If you aim for the empty space created to defend against the swinging sword, the wizard’s arrow will soon pierce the guy’s hand.
– Pajik Pajijik!
– Sigh!
– I’m going to go to the middle of the day!
Sparks shine on the red fake aura.
A blinding purple electricity pierced through his solar plexus and tore through his body. As the arrows of water stretched out together exploded in the air and rained down, the spears of electricity that had arrived again rushed into everyone’s bodies.
– Dismissal…!
It does not create water vapor in the sky. Electricity cannot be collided in crowded dark clouds. Lightning cannot create lightning.
– Sigh!
– Pajijik!
Still, it’s Euria.
– Boo!
– Tuong kwajik!
A heavy sword fell into the heart of the guy who was flinching from Euria’s attack. He destroyed someone’s sword aimed at the knight’s neck and then shattered the guy’s waist.
Without waiting, the next attack breaks another warrior’s heart. The wolf’s blood forms on the heavy silver sword that blocked the red aura.
– Boo!
– Kagak Kwasik!
It was Dmirea.
Demirea, who had been unable to fight for long because she was protecting Hina by her side, kicked her foot.
A body wearing nothing but black light chain armor landed with a deep rumble on the floor. Only then did the tip of the drawn sword touch the heart of another person who had been completely torn out.
– The person hiding behind the purple-haired knight over there. The stone in that person’s heart is unusually small.
You finally found it.
Euria, who was holding Hina’s bead in her hand, smiled.
“Don’t let your guard down! Watch your battle lines!”
Arsene’s voice continues endlessly as he moves the knights to empty areas and brings back those who have strayed from the battle line so that the battle line against the outer wall of the lord’s castle will never be surrounded by Zeon’s soldiers.
The sound of wizards who are not familiar with bows firing arrows without stopping for a moment. The loud sound of a magic bullet exploding. The shouts of those moving large and small injured people.
Across so much urgency that shakes your ears
– fuck!
A sharp arrow of electricity flew like light.
Feeling Euria’s gaze, three arrows fly and hit the forehead and heart of the warrior who was blocking the wizard. The knight’s sword gets stuck in the ankle of another warrior who was trying to throw himself towards the wizard, and a deep sword mark appears on the stumbling man’s neck.
– Long red hair over there. Blue pigtails at the end. Gray hair on the far right. Long brown hair next to him.
“Good luck finding it.”
– Cum, cum, cum!
-Ssssssssssssssssss!
Five arrows fly.
– Kwasik!
– Cards! Kwazijic!
Heading towards the goal.
– …… Cooung!
It hit each target.
The dull sound of a person’s body hitting the floor rings five times.
It’s coming soon.
– Ugh……
“Shield! Unfold the shield!”
– Ugh, wow!
– Kugugugung… Kugugugung… Kugugung!
“Rearrange the formation!”
– Ugh! Wooooow!
It’s coming soon.
It was the sound announcing the end of the fight.
* * *
Because of Slayman.
If Slayman’s chat had been even a little shorter, the only 8th circle wizard on the continent
would not have done the miscellaneous task of ‘tying up several guys who were running away after the battle and dragging them away.’
– and.
– I’m hungry
– … raw oysters. I’ll buy it for you.
– yes.
Kalian ran after leaving Siona to clean up the villa, but he recognized that what was blocking his path was Hina’s defense shield and was unable to force his way into the lord’s castle.
Therefore, Calian, who had been chatting with Plantz while waiting helplessly for the shield to open, would not have found Hina unconscious right after the battle was over and the shield had been lifted.
Aside from the raw oysters, Kalyan, who rolled his eyes because of Hina, would not have to let out a long laugh.
– More than that… where is my son now?
– Whitlin, father.
– All right.
– Come. Please stop me.
– …… That’s right.
– hurry.
There was no need for the beast-like prince with long blue-silver hair to make such a request.
If only Slayman’s chat had been a little shorter, if Alan had returned to the palace on time, if Calian had returned to Whitlin a little sooner, and in the meantime, if Alan had been able to go to the lord’s castle as quickly as possible.
Such things would never have happened.
So everything that happens is because of Slayman.
“Don’t worry because they say there is no major problem. The other injured people also say that their lives are not in danger. Don’t worry. For now, just be happy that you won 500 with 100.”
It’s all because of Slayman, so don’t blame anything else. Alan Manasil, the shameless corps commander who arrived only after the situation was over, consoled the three princes with those words.
If anyone mentions the name ‘Zeon’ on the spot, the blue-silver-haired man who will not be remembered well will either destroy Tensil’s duchy or go to the Sispanian nest and destroy Serenti’s egg. Because it’s clear what to do.
It is clear that Calian will choose a path he will never want to walk. So I just blamed Slayman.
“I will go to the city of elves.”
And Kalyan answered like this:
Alan, who arrived and nodded without asking what he was planning to do, grabbed Calian’s shoulder. In front of the situation that unfolded before their eyes, they picked Calian and brought him to the entrance of the elf city. And went straight back to Whitlin.
If something were to happen there again, the corps commander had to be with me this time.
– Jeopuk.
After Allen left, Calian, who was left alone, took a step forward.
“One ear. One arm. One lung.”
A low murmur continued toward the gigantic shape of the Mother Tree in the distance.
“One of our Hina’s mothers.”
– Jeopuk.
I moved my feet.
slowly.
“I came to get it.”
I walked, engraving the things I had lost.
I walked towards a tree that would be okay to take my anger out on instead.
“Woof….”
The low murmur spreads again.
