Chapter 113. The fourth tomb of Temar (2)
The person who brought the message was a woman and was obviously in a weakened state.
Nevertheless, it was not an opponent that could be done with the mischievous pranks of the inferior fairies.
Some fearless fairies did not recognize the opponent and attacked recklessly. All such fairies met death by having their wings torn off and their bodies exploding. Fortunately, there weren’t too many of them.
who are you?
When asked by Sheila, the woman did not give her name.
Only the eyes hidden inside the hood were shining lonely. The woman smelled of blood and ashes as if she had just come back from a battle.
I came to inform you of Solderlet’s message.
Shadows give us a message?
The woman quietly looked down at Sheila. It meant defeating other fairies.
As the fairies retreated, the woman opened her mouth again.
don’t forget your duty And promise me, I’ll leave you with a story you’ll never forget.
That was Solderlet’s message to Sheila and the elves who followed him.
Is that all?
All.
Why should I follow him?
That would be the only hope for you to restore your honor and regain your original form. He said so.
Sheila’s eyes widened.
Solderlet knew what had happened to Sheila and the fairies. Even the fact that they met Heluram and turned into miserable figures.
The woman turned around. After delivering the message, it looked like he was about to leave.
Where are you going?
Sheila asked. Naturally, she was intensely curious about the woman, but somehow she could only ask where she was going.
The woman paused for a moment.
To where I didn’t break.
After saying that, the woman left Wantaramo Forest.
It was from then.
fairy no The descendants of the fairies started to create the royal family.

As if waking up from alcohol, Jin and Valeria swallowed their breaths and stood up at the same time.
As soon as they opened their eyes, they reflexively raised their weapons and looked around.
The whole black landscape was visible. Subspace Jin, who was made up of aura, immediately realized that this was Temar’s fourth tomb.
“Inside the tomb.”
As Jin drew the sword, Valeria also put down her staff. Cold sweat broke out on both of their foreheads.
“Inside the tomb? Then, was it just a record in King Gawangju?”
“It seem to be like that. Now that the record in Kawangju is over, the seal on the tomb must have been lifted.”
A straight road stretched in front of Jin and Valeria. After examining the road for a while, the two quickly came to the same conclusion.
“Someone must have attacked this grave.”
“The tombs I went to before were also like this. Since this is the fourth tomb, it means that there have been at least four burials. It is also evidence that Ziffle persistently searched for and damaged Temar’s tomb. It could have been the work of the Bement Imperial Family rather than Zipple.”
The two started walking.
It was a long road. However, even after walking for a long time, I couldn’t feel the hostility or energy that was typical of the guardians guarding the tomb from the darkness beyond.
“It looks like there are no Guardians.”
I was relieved that if the guardians existed, another difficult battle might unfold, but on the other hand, I felt regretful.
It was because the absence of a Guardian meant that there was a high possibility that nothing important would remain inside the tomb.
Beok, Beok…
Eventually, the two of them reached the end of the road.
There was a huge sarcophagus where Temar was lying.
The interior was empty and polished without a speck of dust. The cover was broken and debris fell nearby.
First of all, Jin made a flower of artificial flowers in the sarcophagus and put it down.
“Nothing.”
Valeria looked inside the sarcophagus and said,
As she said, all that was left of the fourth tomb was an empty sarcophagus. Nothing like the solderlet’s recording device or the legacy of the old Runkandel remained.
In an instant, a sense of despair soared.
“It seems that there is nothing to be gained from the tomb. Still, there is an old secret story that I saw through King Gawangju, so there was no harvest at all… Ah!”
Jin continued as if he had remembered something.
“Come to think of it, since you’re a record magic user, this tomb itself must be no different than a chunk of records. Isn’t it?”
It was.
To Valeria, this tomb was truly a treasure trove of records. In some ways, it’s easier to analyze than a recording device like a reiki ball.
“that’s right.”
“Can we check the records right away?”
“It’s impossible to read what happened a thousand years ago with my record magic right now.”
Valeria took out a well-folded leather bag from the inside pocket of her robe.
“Instead, you can take the fragments here and go back. In the future, when the achievement of record magic increases, you will be able to recognize it.”
Like an archaeologist discovering an ancient artifact, Valeria carefully put the fragments into a bag. Jin also helped her pick up the debris.
“You don’t have to pack everything. Because it was one thing anyway.”
I scraped off the sarcophagus, fragments of the stone that formed the corridor, and several bloodstains that began to be seen when I looked around closely with my dagger. The blood was placed in an empty glass bottle.
“You did a great job bringing you.”
If he hadn’t met Valeria before reaching the fourth tomb, Jin would have had to return here without getting anything.
Valeria shrugged.
“I think this is enough. Go back now.”
Jin nodded.
But there was a problem.
‘How to get back… what is it?’
The other tombs of Temar that I have been to so far were different from the fourth tomb here.
In the first and second cases, after dealing with the guardians and examining the records and recording devices, the subspace naturally collapsed and escaped the tomb. The third was led by Leed himself.
But what about the fourth?
As soon as I drank the glass, all I saw was an empty sub-space of aura. There were no guardians or other information phenomena to guide them.
As Jin stood still as if he was worried, Valeria met his eyes.
“…Jin Runkandel, no way. Don’t you know how to get back?”
“Um, that’s it. It has never been like this. Until now, the sub-space collapsed automatically after meeting the Guardian or checking the records.”
A moment of silence passed.
Jin felt embarrassed for nothing, but surprisingly, Valeria did not criticize or ridicule.
“What can it be? Because this is no ordinary space. Let’s think about it together.”
First, I looked back the way I had come.
I had already taken a look before reaching the sarcophagus. Even then, there was no such thing as an exit, and when I checked again, the result was the same.
“Shall we destroy the subspace itself?”
At Valeria’s words, Jin shook his head this time.
“It would be best to leave that as a last resort. Perhaps, when the subspace is destroyed, the fragments you brought may also be affected and disappear. I feel that the auras that make up the subspace are connected very organically.”
“Ah, it seems quite possible.”
“For now, let’s wait a bit, Valeria. Anyway, the power on this tomb contained in the seal of the king will not last forever, so when the effect ends, you will be able to return naturally.”

Being followed by Yona was a great fortune for Jin.
Also, the fact that the space where she was waiting for Jin was the entrance to the Wantaramo Forest was strangely overcast, and the fact that it was pouring with heavy rain was also the same.
Hood deuk hood deuk…! Kurleung!
Early morning with heavy rain and thunder.
Time passed completely differently outside and in the tomb. After Jin entered Temar’s fourth tomb, three more hours had already passed.
That meant that Zipple’s additional reinforcements, the Observers, had arrived in Wantaramo Forest.
There are a total of three watchers who came to the forest.
However, they were unable to recklessly enter even after receiving a report that there was a runkandel in the forest.
“…I guess it was a mistake that only the three of us came.”
“I heard that the magical response of the 3 Mage Tower personnel who went to the Wantaramo Forest to support stopped, so I came to visit… It seems that there is something inside. Seeing Jonah Runkandel there.”
Jonah Runcandel.
Even among the Observers, she was known as a super-special dangerous person. This was true not only for the Wraith Corps, but also for all mages in the top ranks of Ziffle.
A person who should never be treated carelessly.
The Wraith Wizards were looking for Wantaramo Forest, never expecting to meet Yona.
“Besides, it rains like this. It’s impossible for the three of us to handle that woman.”
Dealing with the ‘Assassin named Jonah Runkandel’ in the rain like this was an act of suicide, even if it was a lookout.
“Even the captain would tremble if it was Yona Runkandel. Having met him in person, I can see why. Even when I’m still, it feels like his knife is already touching my throat.”
Jonah was still humming a song sitting in the spot where he had killed the 3 Magic Tower wizards. Even though he was an assassin, far from hiding it, he openly guarded the front like a gatekeeper.
Even so, the specters were feeling it intuitively. Unless you burn Jonah whole along with the Wantaramo Forest.
I mean, there’s absolutely no chance of winning. Even burning along with the forest didn’t seem like it could kill Jonah.
For no reason, only the forest, which is a public resource, is blown away, and Zipple will suffer a great loss due to taking responsibility for it.
“Maybe there is nothing particularly important inside the forest. There is a possibility that Yona Runkandel was wandering through the Wantaramo Forest just for fun, and Mayla asked for help, and naturally the wizards of the 3 Magic Towers were annihilated.”
“If it’s Jonah Runkandel, that’s enough. Was there a single report on that woman that didn’t include the word completely insane?”
“Should I just go back?”
For a while, the specters had their eyes fixed on Jonah, unable to do this or that.
Originally, they should have heard that there is a ‘Jin Runkandel and the Record Wizard’ inside the forest.
If that were the case, not just three, but all of the waiters would have come. Also, even if only the three of them had come, they would have prepared for death and battled Jonah.
However, the wizards of the 3 Magic Towers, who should have delivered the letter with the news to their parents, had already become cold corpses three hours ago. to Jonah.
Therefore, the observatory was in a state of not knowing what was going on inside the forest or who was there.
“Damn, I can’t judge.”
While the wraith was wandering around, Jonah was thinking this to himself.
‘Did they come to kill the youngest? No, that’s probably not the case since the letter the dead guys were holding didn’t reach them. Did you just run into me by chance? I’m not sure. kill? don’t you? kill? Don’t you?’
he.
Jonah grinned and turned his gaze to the tree where the wraiths were hiding.
And at that moment, the watchdog had no choice but to make a judgment like this.
I guess I’d rather just come back.
