Chapter 523,
Chapter 144. For a friend (1)
All transit gates in the empire were being closed.
The appearance of the armies of the vassal states heading towards the empire was also captured in various places by land and sea.
Clearly beyond any doubt the Empire was preparing for war. War with Hiran.
Booong-!
A white dimensional door was formed in the front yard of Tikan, and Motte, the snow toad, appeared.
As soon as Talaris realized that the atmosphere was unusual, he visited the Geomwangseong. Mort looked quite tired because he had moved too many dimensions in a short period of time.
“Lady Thalaris!”
As Jin and his allies approached, Talaris shook his head in bewilderment.
“The emperor has gone mad. I’m really in the mood to play the dark mood.”
“Have you met Sir Ron?”
“They said he wasn’t there. I haven’t heard any other details. But the sword emperor was also completely poisoned… War is unavoidable. All the samurai who follow Ron are also gathering at Geomwangseong.”
War between Hiran and the entire Empire.
Originally, Talaris thought that as long as Ron was there, the outcome of the war would surely return to Hyran’s victory.
However, now that she had been to the Geomwangseong Fortress herself, she wasn’t sure either. It wasn’t because I hadn’t met Ron in person.
“There are strangely few families who have decided to help Hailan. I don’t know what kind of trick the imperial family played or if Ron lost popularity while I didn’t know.”
Jin knew why.
“Lady Thalaris.”
“why?”
“Talaris-sama told me to let me know if something bad was going to happen. Could you please tell me what could be the reason?”
Secret Palace has always been neutral, but now it deserves to be called Jin’s ally.
However, his relationship with Hylan was unclear.
In fact, the secret palace did not have to step out even if Hiran was destroyed. It shouldn’t have come out exactly. It would turn the empire into an enemy for no reason.
So, it was only after she had expressed her willingness to help Pandemic that Ron’s health was not known.
Talaris shrugged and looked at Jin’s allies.
“Everyone, go out for a while. Only your son-in-law needs to listen.”
Colleagues moved away.
“son-in-law.”
“yes.”
“You will remember what I told you about the duties of a secret palace last time, right?”
– Bigung has been neutral for most of the years, but it wasn’t always like that. We also made an oath when the 1st great queen was chosen by Manbing and Mort for the first time.
-The same goes for the power of ice that our Endorma clans got. In exchange for gaining too much power for humans, he was entrusted with a mission to help solve the world’s anomalies.
Jin nodded as he recalled the story.
“Preceding queens left a record that Hiran had one thing that could be a threat to the world.”
white stone.
It was about him.
It is the best secret of Hiran, passed down only to the heads of households, but the Secret Palace has already known the existence of the stone for a long time.
“Our Secret Palace presumes that the item Hi-Lan has is the witch Heluram’s item. And as I said before, preventing the disaster that Helluram brings is one of the representative duties of the Secret Palace.”
“Then, Talaris-nim must have prevented the danger that Hiran is harboring as the secret wife in this matter.”
“Yes.”
Talaris answered calmly.
Her words that she would keep her duty as a secret palace could be interpreted in many ways.
‘The story that Talaris takes care of the White Stone takes precedence over Highran is very reasonable, but if you think about it differently… It means that the moment the White Stone reveals the danger, Talaris-sama could rather attack Highran. am.’
We have no idea what condition the white stone is in at this time.
Also, when the situation reached an extreme, he was not sure what choice Hi-Lan would make.
He believes in his friend Dante, but the leader of Hiran is Ron, not Dante.
If Highlan is at its worst in this war.
Ron was a person who could use the power of the white stone if he could protect his beloved grandson.
-I don’t think there’s any reason for the imperial family to covet something that’s all there is to it.
-That’s right.
– I get it roughly. The stone must be dangerous enough to be unknown to anyone in the world. So, the family head of Hiran, who acquired the item for the first time, tried to cut it down and failed. After that, only the order to destroy it was left without revealing the identity of the object so that future family heads would not be greedy.
-You mean you inferred everything from just my brief explanation? That’s shocking.
-It’s even more shocking that not even all the heads of Hiran’s history have been able to cut the stone, even Lord Lorne. How did the stone come about?
A conversation with Dante about the White Stone.
In that conversation, the danger of the white stone was already revealed.
The same was true of the emperor’s actions to obtain the stone, even giving up Hailan.
‘If, by any chance, the stone threatens the world, and Lady Talaris stands on the side of stopping Hyran.’
There is no way to stop it.
That’s why Jin was hesitant to give Talaris information about Ron.
After Jin was silent for a while, Talaris smiled mischievously as if he knew everything.
“son-in-law.”
“yes.”
“I think I know what you are worried about. I mean, it’s easy to read your thoughts.”
“Yes, I am concerned. I will help Dante as a friend no matter what.”
“Even if something bumps into me in the process?”
“yes.”
A heavy silence fell between the two.
“…If he’s an idiot, he could use Heluram’s stuff to save his grandson. Because nothing is more important to him than his grandson. but gin. As Dante Hylan is your friend, Lon Hylan is my friend.”
Chiron and Ron and Thalaris.
To those three, the closest friends or companions were each other.
Such is the life of absolutes. The higher you stand, the stronger you get, the deeper you enter.
people become lonely They gained absolute power at the cost of falling into the deepest solitude.
Only those who entered the land could understand each other.
However, their relationship was not different, just as stars collide and disappear when they come too close.
If one of the three could embrace all of them, they would have become more affectionate friends than anyone else.
However, Shiron, who was able to take on the role, ascended to a higher and lonely realm and lost his emotions as a human being, and from then on, the three couldn’t get closer.
I still have the feeling of being a friend.
So Thalaris hoped that she would never do her duty, and was determined to make things work out that way if possible.
“So be a little more honest with me and tell me everything you know. We’re talking about the worst situation right now, but isn’t that just an assumption? we have the power The power to rule out the worst.”
I felt the sincerity.
In addition, in order to help Hyran as quickly as possible realistically, Talaris’ ability was needed.
The fact that all movement gateways are closed means that land and sea routes are also blocked.
Jin was prepared to approach the Geomhwangseong via land and sea while fighting the imperial army, and was confident that he would break through without difficulty.
But it’s too late to go that way.
Until then, if Hailan can’t hold out, it will only be hostile to the empire instead of helping friends.
Going quickly and fighting together could also have enough meaning if you lost the empire and led the war to victory.
Jin is the rider of Runcandel.
As a jockey, this support was intended to proceed without the permission of Rosa, acting governor.
If so, it must have been successful.
“And maybe you and I are overcomplicating things. Even though there were fewer martial flags with Hiran than I thought, if it were Ron…”
“Sir Ron… has not yet recovered from the internal injuries sustained during the Black Emperor Terror.”
Thalaris’ eyes widened.
“…what?”
“Sir Ron’s condition has not improved at all since he suffered internal injuries in a fight with Captain Kingelo. I don’t know the details, but maybe it’s worse than then. And the only ones who know this are me, Thalaris, and all five of Sir Lorne’s entourage.”
“I was aware that Ron had hardly done any foreign activities after the attack on the Yellow Emperor, but… Are you saying it was because of that reason?”
“The reason why the emperor is carrying out the purge is that there are few samurai with Hailan. Perhaps those in the know in the Empire know that Sir Lorne is not normal.”
“…Ron, contrary to his looks, is good at tricks, so maybe he’s doing it on purpose. Pretending to be sick, it could be the intention to root out Hyran’s enemies and maybe even deal with the Emperor… Goddamn things don’t look too good for that. I’m not the kind of person who covets power even when Ron forces a fight.”
Whoa Thalaris sighed.
Hearing of Ron’s condition made her even more concerned. Even assuming he was in good health, it was only natural that he was worried about the danger of the white stone.
“I can understand why Ron never met me. Even though he’s a friend, I’m fundamentally an outsider in Hiran, so I couldn’t tell you the situation.”
Worse than that, it could be so bad that you can’t even move.
“Lady Thalaris.”
“Speak.”
“Please help me and my colleagues get on the motte and go to Geomwangseong.”
“okay. But right now it is not possible. Mort is tired from having just traveled so far. I need time to recover.”
Jin nodded.
“Anyway, I need a little time. We must muster all our allies and men, and we must also create means to protect the Tikan while the power goes out.”
Jin planned to focus all of his energy on Hailan.
