Regressor of the Fallen Family Chapter 327

Episode 327: Jump, jump, jump.

A space where the sound of footsteps echoes exceptionally loudly.

The shady, damp air underground without a single ray of sunlight could have made people feel uneasy, but the group walking underground showed no sign of that.

It was not simply because the torches hanging throughout the underpass were clearing away some of the humid air. The faces seen through the bright torches were filled with anticipation and excitement rather than anxiety.

“It’ll work out, right?”

Logan smiled at the question of Victor, who was walking ahead with a torch.

“Lord Clayton assured me, so of course it will work out.”

“Of course. It should work out. Just for the money I spent on this project…”

The minister, a huge man with voluminous sideburns, struck a candle with a worried expression that did not befit his size.

The moment Logan was about to say something, a sharp voice came from next to him and criticized Dwayne.

“You’re just activating something that already exists. There’s a lower chance of failure.”

“…yes.”

Despite Damian’s words and Logan’s rebuttal, Dwayne could only sigh.

“I hope so. How much money was spent on the experiment…”

“Dwayne, if you keep doing that, I’ll be cheating. If it goes wrong, I might have to start over again.”

“What man?”

The enormous budget invested so far may be lost.

To the Minister of Finance, it was a joke that could not have been more terrible.

Dwayne’s face, frowning and glaring at Damian, looked even more grim than usual, perhaps because of the shadow of the torch.

Damian waved his hand and smiled slyly.

“Haha. Let’s think positively. Good and good. If you keep doing that, wrinkles will only increase.”

“You, man. Half of these wrinkles are because of the accident between you and His Majesty…”

“Ah, you’ve gone too far. Your Majesty may not know, but I don’t.”

“…What is it? This familiar and dirty feeling… Ah, how come you resemble Rick?”

“Chief Chamberlain? Why are you talking so harshly?”

“You’re saying that right now…”

Logan chuckled as he watched the two people bickering over and over again.

‘Definitely Damian is completely different from his past life.’

Even though he had such a warm expression on his face, his thoughts soon wandered somewhere and his expression hardened again.

Since it was a confidential matter, only three people were present. There were only Victor, a superhuman who was already beyond the level of a simple guard and could be said to be the nation’s main force, Dwayne, the Minister of Finance, who executed the funds for this project, and Damien, who handled confidential information due to his location.

‘From now on, it will have to remain confidential unless you are a corps commander or superhuman.’

Among ordinary people without special abilities, these two people will continue to be the only ones who know about this matter.

People who have supported me knowingly or unknowingly while going through many hardships.

My faith in them was already firm.

However, after learning about the magic of the Kassel Magic Tower, I couldn’t help but worry, regardless of my faith.

– Let’s hold hands for a while. Because I have no intention of protecting my loyalty even after being stabbed in the back like this.

I don’t know how much to believe Luisa’s words. To be honest, it can also be interpreted as meaning that he will continue to stay in the royal castle, Grandpia, and carry out tricks. I felt like I needed to think about special protection measures for the two of them.

But until I think of a clear way.

“Once again, after today, you both must report to me at least once every three days. Don’t even think about going near Princess Luisa, who is quarantined in the villa.”

I don’t know why, but I had no choice but to keep washing(?) my mind with my own force, which can be said to be the energy of opposites.

“…yes.”

“All right.”

The two also knew the seriousness of the situation, so they had no choice but to stop arguing and nod despite Logan’s nagging, which had already happened several times.

The culture of the current continent is such that civil servants without special abilities such as force or mana have no choice but to be looked down on. But regardless, they knew very well how heavy the task they were responsible for was.

Even as he looked at them like that, Logan’s eyebrows did not straighten.

‘I’m also worried about the news about the temple…’

This was because once I thought about it, my worries kept coming.

Although he knew that the place and situation were not very appropriate, Logan suddenly asked while the thought occurred to him.

“Damien. Has anything substantively changed since Pope Austin’s comments in support of the empire?”

“…I haven’t noticed any changes in Seongguk yet.”

“What about Seongguk?”

Logan looks back at him at that subtle choice of words.

“I was planning to report back with the data after this inspection. That’s…”

Damian swallowed his saliva and continued in a cautious tone.

“There is news from the Empire that Prince Baros has departed to visit the capital Noviens.”

“what?”

“There is no confirmation yet as to exactly why. Philip Sang-ju is also focusing his attention on Noviens, but I think we will have to wait and see what happens in the future.”

“Ha…”

My heart felt tight.

‘I can’t do anything about it.’

The change in the temple was too sudden.

Since Pope Austin had blatantly destroyed the temple’s principle of not having anything to do with worldly power, it was difficult to even predict how the temple would move in the future.

Then, I suddenly remembered a cardinal emeritus with whom I had a good relationship in the past and who was recently called a saint.

“What about Bishop Ilia? Can you contact me?”

Wouldn’t she know something about the changes in the temple?

“We already tried to send people to contact him, but they say he went into penance immediately after the Pope’s coronation ceremony and cut off all contact with the outside world.”

“her?”

Why now?

The answer to the question in his eyes was simple.

“It is said in the temple that the saint deliberately chose isolation to secure her position as the new pope.”

“Hmm…”

I thought that might be the case.

The number one contributor to driving out the corrupt priests and creating a new temple.

In addition, strictly speaking, the word ‘saint’ had greater weight than Cardinal Austin, who was famous only within the saints. If such a saint frequently worked outside, the position of the newly enthroned Pope would inevitably decrease.

It wasn’t something I couldn’t understand, but for now all I could do was sigh.

“The timing of this is so clever.”

“…Since the election of the new Pope was a period in which important figures in the church were being completely reorganized, we were able to plant a number of people in Noviense with the help of Philip Sanguine. Soon, you will be able to understand the situation in more detail.”

“Okay, okay. If you have any news, report it right away. Orally first.”

“Yes, I understand.”

“Your Majesty, I think we are almost there.”

“Ah…”

As we talked about the situation at the temple, we eventually reached our destination.

In a space where blue and white light emitted so much that the torch in Victor’s hand was meaningless.

“your majesty!”

“Your Majesty has arrived!”

“See you, Your Majesty.”

The moment the party entered the underground plaza, the wizards who saw them all lowered their heads.

Greek and Enan Truth, including Clayton and Victoria.

Five of the Golem School’s most elite wizards were gathered together and examining every nook and cranny of the magic circle, which seemed to have a radius of over 300 meters.

At a glance, it seemed like there were too few people to inspect such a huge magic circle. At the moment when the blue and white mana was shining, the scattered wizards could not be seen properly.

However, since it was difficult to increase the number of people, Logan greeted the mage who bowed to him with a bitter smile.

“Thank you for your hard work, Lord Clayton.”

“No. I learned a lot while reactivating the magic circle that was already created.”

“Still, it seems like we’re too short on people.”

Clayton smiled and shook his head at Logan’s words.

“Reinterpreting ancient magic is a great help to me and my students. Above all, since Lia takes on almost the biggest role, there is nothing particularly difficult for us.”

“Are you Leah?”

“Yes. I think his sensitivity has improved a lot since ‘that incident’. He really is an amazing kid. His attributes are the same.”

property?

I had a lot of questions, but Victoria’s abilities weren’t important right now.

“Oh, I see.”

Logan pushed his curiosity to the corner of his head and looked at every corner of the glowing magic circle. However, what he could tell from his limited insight was that the entire huge magic circle was in the form of several pentacles overlapping each other. Even though I knew the ancient language well, I couldn’t understand even a part of the magical rune language because it was a completely different language.

“Did you say there were five great magic circles?”

Clayton, who realized the meaning of that ambiguous look, hurriedly followed and explained.

“Yes. Analysis of 4 out of 5 magic circles has been completed.”

“What about the other one?”

“It’s a magic circle with some unusual corners, so I think we’ll still need more time.”

It was difficult to guess the time because Clayton’s expression was somewhat strange, but Logan smiled and nodded.

“Hmm. Well, how about just four? Let’s listen to the explanation first.”

Even though I didn’t know exactly what kind of power it had, I felt reassured just by the energy I could feel in the Great Magic Circle.

If you install this in the castles and fortresses on the front lines, dealing with the empire will be much easier.

“Yes. First, the outermost blue magic circle is a magic circle related to castle wall strengthening and automatic repair. And the second is a defense magic circle that blocks external anti-magic attacks. Your Majesty is probably well aware of these two.”

“Ah, I’ve been maintaining that magic stone by replacing it, but it’s running out of effect?”

“Yes. As a thousand years have passed, we have supplemented the corrupted magic circle and disappeared rune words to further improve its efficiency. If we maintain it consistently, it will last for another thousand years.”

“Hmm, that’s good. Then what are the other three?”

“One is a vitality maintenance magic circle that relieves fatigue and aids recovery for all targets within the castle.”

“Keep your energy up?”

“If activated properly, it will have a stamina increase effect of close to 30% and a recovery effect for all targets. There are differences for each person, but we believe that it can be applied to up to 100,000 general soldiers excluding knights and superhumans. ”

“her?”

“I think that even if we combine all the knights and superhumans, it can be fully applied to our current legion. What’s even more amazing is that even if the number of targets is larger, the effect will be reduced, but it can be applied.”

“How much is it?”

“Yes. In theory, there is no limit to the number. Although the effect will be weakened.”

“It’s a weakening, so if it can be applied…”

At first glance, it seemed like an insignificant effect that could be achieved with just a 1-circle spell, but considering that the area of application was the entire capital Grand, it was ridiculous.

It is also a great magic circle that is activated at all times when only magic stones and mana are supplied. No matter how much a mage he was, it was not a level of magic that an individual could use.

“That’s amazing.”

“Yes. It’s really amazing. We are still figuring out the principle of how one magic circle can simultaneously stimulate the power of life with different wavelengths for each individual. If we study this properly, we can surpass the research achievements of past great mages… ..”

“No, no, I don’t need to know that much detail. What about other magic circles?”

“Ah… haha. Another is the weakening effect that acts on hostile forces, that is, enemies. Since this was not intended for humans in the first place, we cannot know its exact power at this time.”

“Ah…”

I could roughly guess what he meant.

“I guess it was magic to fight a different race.”

“Yes. It is a magic that weakens all races other than humans.”

Among the leading races that roamed the continent a thousand years ago, humans were among the weakest.

Dwarves, elves, lizardmen, orcs, and even the legendary dragons and dragons.

An incomprehensible, absolute race. Not to mention dragons, other races that were as intelligent as humans and had some superior characteristics were the leading races that led the civilization of the time. On the

other hand, humans were so weak that most individuals could not defeat even a wild beast and had a long lifespan. It was also unreasonably short compared to other races.

However, among such humans, several great mages, who are said to be rare even among other races that live for hundreds of years, appeared every generation and were able to maintain the name of the human race.

And many such arch mages were grouped together. Or, they built a city over several generations and created a great magic circle to protect weak humans.

One of those cities was the current Grand.

A thousand years ago, during the Great Migration, five great mages were among the humans who were swept away by the great migration of different races. The legendary city that was built to protect the world is none other than Gran.

A city with five magic towers and five great magic formations built by five great mages. This city was the pride of Grandia and the hope of the humans in the eastern part of the continent.

But its pride was its pride. Some of them seemed like they would have no use in today’s era.

“Why is it a magic circle for a different race…”

A sad sigh came out of Logan’s mouth, and as if in agreement, Clayton also let out an ominous sound.

“Actually, it hasn’t been analyzed yet . I found a bit of a problem with this final, unfinished magic circle.”

“Hmm?”

“The remaining magic circle is an exploration magic circle that classifies the targets of the two magic circles, ‘vitality’ and ‘weakness.'” ”

… But what?”

“In ancient times, it could have been divided into only two categories: humans and other races. However, in the current war between humans, there is a problem that it is difficult for the magic circle to classify allies and enemies. Even excluding the problem that the current population of Gran is so large that it was unimaginable in ancient times.” ”

Ah….”

The essential problem. The

first problem was that not only was the cross-race weakening magic circle not particularly useful, but the effect of the vitality magic circle was also weakened due to too many residents of Gran.

And even if the first problem was solved, the ‘humans’ existing in the castle ‘There was a fatal problem that if this reinforcement was targeted, the enemy army would also be strengthened.

Wouldn’t that make the war more lively and bloody?

However, Logan did not miss what Clayton said in a subtle tone.

“There was’?

” Clayton smiled at the sharp question.

“Luckily Leah found a way.”

Clayton winked, and Victoria, who had already come closer, took a step forward.
