Episode 233
“Your Majesty the Queen! It’s urgent!”
“yes. What is. Sir Gerald.”
“Count! No enemies! no no! Lord Colliers murdered the Prince!”
The queen’s eyes went up.
reassuring face. However, it soon changed to a slightly sad expression.
“Aren’t you happy?”
“I’m glad. It’s been a while since the aristocrats of the South were harmed by air force. The impatient king couldn’t react quickly, but how can he not be happy that his servants stepped forward to avenge Carpe?”
“But why is your face like that?”
“Just…”
said the Queen, looking at the warm sunlight.
“Because the warm winter is about to leave me.”
“Haha, spring will come soon after the warm winter, so you don’t have to worry.”
The queen only smiled slightly at the judge Gerald, who offered words of comfort.
After winter comes spring.
However, the queen’s spring.
Because it seemed like it would never come.
Charleuk.
“That’s…”
“It’s the emperor’s edict.”
It was written in it.
“The enemy of mankind is confusing the land, so we must unite our mighty warriors like a thousand years ago.”
“It’s shameless. When you attack Carpe, always ask for help!”
Shameless.
But the cause exists.
enemy of mankind.
Like a thousand years ago, great warriors gather.
If you refuse, Carpe will be criticized as a coward.
They may be stigmatized as traitors to humanity and later subjected to all sorts of insults.
“okay.”
Clara opened her mouth, crumpling the letter sent by the emperor.
“It went better. At this point, you just have to show Carpe’s potential.”
Carpe has changed.
There is no Carpe who insisted only on the sword.
Carpe has everything.
Shields, fists, whips, and other weapons.
I’ve already started to have a lot of things.
“What happened to Sir Cedric?”
“I heard that you captured the Myoin people who worshiped Kwon Gak on an uninhabited island in the south.”
“How many?”
“It was said to reach three thousand.”
Cedric’s story was also known to the Queen. A bond that originated with Callius.
I heard that he also played a big role in recovering the holy relic, and because of that, he became the leader of the Myoin tribe who recovered the holy relic and held the authority on a deserted island that had been forgotten.
It will take time to mix, but this is Carpe’s blessing.
“What happened to the shield?”
“I heard that the shield is also well established in the north and is expanding the land.”
It is said that they are pushing the Orcs out of the northern tribal life and rapidly increasing the available land and resources.
“How many warriors are available?”
“Beast races reproduce quickly and have a shorter growth period than humans.”
However, the number of beastmen who migrated to the north was not very large.
Even if you pull it as much as possible, cloth.
But at the center of them all is the Shield Saint.
There is Junice.
With her command and strength, it will be a strong shield.
“Sir Serena the elf and Sir Aldu the dwarf. And what happened to Sir Philo, the dragon race?”
“All of them have been confirmed to support their group. We will reach Carpe with reinforcements in the near future.”
Elves and Dwarves.
And to the Yongin people.
Even if the number is not much, it will be a great help if you help even if it is small.
Besides, they can show their power to the empire in their own way, so even if they feel uncomfortable, it will be of great benefit later.
“However, it is not yet clear whether they will go out of their way to help the Empire. As you know, the Empire pushed for the extermination of the heterogeneous race…”
“It is not helping the Empire.”
It is for the sake of mankind living on the continent.
So it doesn’t matter.
“Moreover, carpe is carpe no matter what. I’ll show them that. So that you don’t mess around again.”
will show you clearly
Carpe, who embraced what the Empire did not have, was beyond what they thought.
“Because you are strong.”
this.
Because he wanted Carpe.

Shrine of the Principality.
At some point Gerter stopped following the goblin rules.
transaction of knowledge.
After that, he didn’t break the bridge of Materigan and leap through space, but he stayed where he wanted to stay.
Like the goblin rules.
It no longer meant anything to him.
“Redbeard Gerter.”
Appearance no different from other goblins.
The difference is that he has a red beard like his name and looks twice as old as Lecter.
And unlike him, who was quite gentle.
‘Your impression is dirty.’
The fact that he is the owner with the impression that he is likely to be dirty once in a while.
“A human being called me carelessly. The world has gotten so much better.”
“It’s not that the world has improved, it’s just that I’ve risen to that level.”
“Befitting a young guy, his spirit is amazing.”
A place where white steam blooms.
Made of pure white marble, it was a bathhouse.
At the center of it, Gerter was half-immersed and did not move.
“Would you like to come in?”
“I don’t have time to take a leisurely bath.”
“You must think what will be left if you live without having time to take a bath. Such a life only ruins your destiny and makes your life messy.”
A word that feels like a long regret.
However, Colliers did not listen.
Rather than Gerter’s words, he listened to the woman whispering inside him.
[Gerter. He’s still alive.]
‘Do you know him?’
[I’ve met him once. You’re such a shy guy Why did you come to meet this person?]
‘I have no contact with the giant.’
The current era is like the eye of a typhoon that does not know how to change.
The continent moved faster than expected, and corruption and dragons appeared accordingly.
The goblins couldn’t just watch this, and the giants would have no choice but to jump on the bandwagon.
[Why are you obsessed with giants?]
‘They can be enemies or allies, but no matter what.’
Callius incurs the wrath of the gods.
‘Because they are enemies of God.’
If God owns the sky, who owns the earth?
Some might say it’s a human, some might say it’s a dragon.
Others would call it a goblin, and some would call it a corruption.
But Colliers was different.
The owner of the land has always belonged to the giants.
They just didn’t dominate.
‘Perhaps in the near future giants and messengers of gods will appear.’
Messenger of God.
Slaves of God calling out to their masters.
Annoyances with a different meaning from corruption will begin to appear.
To put an end to continental chaos.
To touch the turbulent land.
or.
‘To become God’s errand boy and do whatever he wants.’
Stella asked.
[Callius. What is your purpose?]
‘I wonder why.’
[Because it’s absolutely no coincidence that I turned to you.]
‘…I just want to live. And I just miss you.’
A story that started in my hands.
and to survive in it.
To do that, just survive.
‘But that won’t be enough anymore.’
The continent will gradually reach catastrophe.
In order to survive there, it is better to keep what you want to protect and have a bigger one to achieve your goal.
I swallowed Colliers.
Afterwards, he swallowed Carpe’s wishes, and later harbored the grudges of Titeo and the warriors he could not forsake.
I will continue to do so.
I kill or embrace those who go the same way as me.
I don’t know what might be at the end.
Even if my way was wrong.
I don’t stop moving
For me, the road itself is a pleasure, something I hoped for, and a road I had to go.
I had to know why I was reborn in the world that started at my fingertips and why I had to die so miserably.
‘I need to know.’
So there is no hesitation in my path.
“Why are you not talking?”
Seeing Gerter, the goblin who combed his red beard, asked, Callius answered.
“It will fall like the rain of God’s punishment.”
“…”
Gerter was speechless.
God’s Punishment.
A divine punishment that hurt the goblins more than anything else.
Gerter does not know what it means to fall like rain.
“You are not human. Are you a giant?”
“Gerter. Just like the day the goblins were doomed, the messengers of the gods will pour down. The apostles will appear and sweep the continent.”
“Nonsense! God has no reason!!”
“there is.”
Black hair turns gray.
A gray aura rises from Colius’ body.
Whoa-!
The water vapor in the bathroom dissipates.
And what fell down was ashes.
“They want me.”
The energy of the demigod filled the temple.
“An apostle will appear soon.”
so.
“Give me the source of the giant. There is no way to stop the apostles other than them.”
the apostle.
can fly anywhere
Because it can happen anywhere.

South of Carpe.
Genos and Lauren von Ruidren are living while rebuilding collapsed cities.
Lauren, the next Golden Lion of the South, swallowed a drool at the story of Colius.
“You have already left.”
“There are rumors that the king of the duchy was murdered. He now has powers that cannot be confined to one country. He must have left because he knew this.”
To invade the principality single-bloodedly and smash the king’s head. Even turning it into a mace, it hurts to say how great his power is.
I even thought it was wiser.
If you have that kind of power, strange things will flock to you.
However, because of that, Genos was quite worried about Colius.
Those who stand at the top are inherently lonely, and because they are closest to the sky, they have to endure the weight of the vast sky.
“There was something I wanted to talk to you about…”
“I’m not as good as him, but I’m still here. Consult.”
In response, Lauren pointed at the sword tied to the scabbard standing in the corner of the office.
“Is it a sword made of luteon?”
“yes.”
A nice sword in a scabbard.
However, it was also a sword tightly bound with all sorts of threads and chains.
“This sword.”
Lauren said while looking at the sword that Lutheon had changed with uneasy eyes.
“You will keep talking to me.”
“Speak?”
“Yes, and I want to move.”
like.
“Like being alive.”
deaf deaf.
As if trying to get out of the sheath on his own, as if he had heard me talking.
Lutheon’s sword dropped.
