Episode 206. Lucky Day (2)
Arcana Continent.
Imperial Capital Antonium.
The Iron Castle floating in the sky.
“Sometimes the imperial wheat beer isn’t bad either.”
“sometimes? You have to speak straight. Isn’t that just decades?”
“is it? hahaha So it was worth eating.”
The tiredness of the smelting that remained in the body.
Even the deep fatigue that lay at the bottom.
The dwarves who had been drained with beer returned to their daily routine.
With the activities of the demons on the decline, the top priority is of course.
“The recon squadron prepares for a sortie.”
To find the remains of the Kürnberg Machine Tower.
that fulfills that role.
It was the small airship ‘Scepter’ mounted inside the Iron Castle.
Dwarven pilots each climb into the scepter.
Veteran pilot Gunner playfully opens his mouth.
“But a chain walker.”
“?”
“Isn’t this a drunk flight? hahaha.”
A chain walker reacts to an unflattering joke.
“What happened to you, wasn’t it a few hours ago when you complained that beer is lighter than water? Stop talking nonsense and go. It’s about time to leave Antonium.”
Defeat Hoyeol’s top demon king.
Thanks to that, the peace of Arcana Continent came.
Thanks to that, the Dwarves stopped flying for a while and stayed in Antonium.
However, the temple was currently in progress.
This means that you never know when and where something will happen.
“Antonium, especially the tavern merchants, must be disappointed.”
“Let’s see how much we raised?”
“Gunner-nim, you said it was like plain water, how many barrels did you empty by yourself?”
“Did I? hahaha.”
Wallsweil looked at the empty shipboard.
I couldn’t be so frantic when the little survivors of Dredsen Village were running around. When he disappeared, the vacancy felt quite large.
The Chain Walker spoke.
“I intend to meet the emperor before I leave.”
“okay? Are you Why?”
Extinction of Akshan.
After that, he was a dwarf who completely cut off contact with humans. An empire and an emperor could not be an exception.
In a way, the annihilation of Akkshan was the responsibility of the empire for failing to manage the territory properly.
“Did the years make you forget the past, Chainwalker?”
At Wallsweil’s question, the chain walker shook his head.
“no. Even if I forget, I can’t forget.”
Akkshan vowed to leave behind the end even for them.
But at the same time, there was a hot fever.
Akkshan’s last survivor.
Chain Walker thought from his point of view.
“That’s why I’m going to break my stubbornness and meet you.”
Sir Hoyeol.
If it were you, you certainly wouldn’t have turned Antonium against the Empire. Because of this, Chain Walker intended to deliver the information collected during reconnaissance directly to the emperor.
“If you learned a lesson from the past, wouldn’t you listen to us?”
.
.
.
Wiing—
the Scepter glides through the sky.
The size of the blimp was smaller than a wagon.
The size of the cockpit was also tailored to the dwarves, so even Dredsen’s children could barely fit into it.
“see. The wreckage…”
Even the small Scepter Hoyeo still had everything there was.
Skill enough to find the remains of mechanical towers scattered across the continent from high in the sky. It’s not unreasonable since a part of the Iron Castle, the concentration of Dwarf technology, was the Scepter.
“?”
Such a scepter detected an abnormal signal.
A mana-sensing instrument panel that vibrates violently.
A moment of tension crept across Gunner’s face.
“…the maximum?”
It’s not enough to reach the maximum.
It sways left and right as if it would break through the instrument panel.
There must be a reason for this level of mana sensitivity.
Gunner looked around and looked around.
Dark clouds suddenly hung over the sky.
Flashing—
“Suddenly, a thunderbolt…?”
Kurleung!
“What kind of fucking weather is this!”
Even the Iron Castle, which was hundreds of thousands of times larger than the Scepter, was not free to fly in bad weather.
Riding a scepter and flying through the sky on a day when thunder and lightning strikes because there is not enough rain?
Suicide in other words.
“It must be a dwarf-style natural death, but this.”
It is already far away from the Iron Castle.
Flashing—
to the point where even if I fly diligently from now on, there is no law to return safely.
Lightning thundered violently from the sky.
However, Gunner did not turn the steering wheel.
“Sky, do you think I’m going to step back like this?”
There was an experience in the holy war.
It made me realize the importance of information.
Akk’shan couldn’t know what had happened to them.
without any help.
I had no choice but to watch their end.
“thunderbolt? It’s okay to avoid it.”
The instrument panel fluctuates even at the moment of declaration.
I won’t turn the steering wheel of the Iron Castle until I find the source.
Gunner controlled the scepter without stopping.
and witnessed
“…!”
Zero Mountains moved to the world of adventurers.
A vast flatland created thanks to this.
The beings who appeared there.
“That one!”
It is the ability of the Scepter to examine even the wreckage of the mechanical tower.
so i was able to find out.
pointed ears.
“…Elf?”
The elves were not one or two.
It’s hard to believe that it’s an existence that hasn’t appeared on the continent until now. A group of nearly one hundred elves stood up on the plain.
“Why are they?”
Do you mean gathering in a place like this?
I don’t know why, but it was something to be concerned about.
Gunner swallowed dry saliva and gripped the steering wheel tightly.
‘I have to go back before it’s too late.’
My head was screaming, but I turned away.
However, the Dwarf’s unique stubbornness could not last long.
A twinkle—
a light that touches the sight.
At first I thought it was just lightning.
But it wasn’t.
“!”
Lightning is falling from the sky.
But now the flash is from the ground to the sky.
To be precise, it was because he had stretched himself toward the Scepter.
I was able to intuit the moment.
‘I noticed my existence!’
Kirik!
Astonished, I reflexively turned the steering wheel.
A flash of light barely escapes.
The reverberation hit the eardrum belatedly.
Geeeeing—!
“!”
A roar that could only be heard from the Iron Castle’s magic gun.
However, the current flash was not so grandiose.
Gunner’s pupils shook violently.
‘That means it was just an arrow!’
What I avoided was a miracle, literally luck.
“Thunderbolts can avoid that!”
Kirik!
Gunner hurriedly turned the steering wheel.
Why did the elves start acting as a group?
I couldn’t figure out why, but one thing was clear.
“You mean you don’t discriminate against anyone.”
To those who go against their will, they pull the bow without having to worry. That alone was valuable information to the Dwarves. It would be the same for the Empire and Hoyeol.
Kurreung—!!
“Damn, should I call this lucky?”
in a pouring thunderstorm.
After safely returning to the Iron Castle, Gunner murmured. When I ran straight to the chain walker, several Dwarf pilots were already in the middle of a conversation with serious faces.
“Chain Walker. And everyone has something to say.”
The appearance of the elves must be more important information than any other news.
I thought so and opened my mouth.
It wasn’t.
The closer you get, the clearer the conversation sounds.
“The devil’s aura was unmistakably that of a demon lord.”
“A demon king? Such crazy…!!”
“Why is your expression like that?”
“Damn it, I saw it too.”
“Sighting? What do you mean?”
“You don’t know. Chainwalker, you will remember. When our king was still alive. A human man who came to our kingdom.”
The Chain Walker asked in shock.
“It’s probably not Akkshan… Are you referring to Urs?”
“Right. The man who got the mechanical arm from us. It’s the mechanical arm. That must have been Urs with an iron arm! That author has reappeared on the Arcana Continent!”
“oh my god.”
Oh my God, chain walker.
“…Hey, is that what I want to say?”
“Oh Gunner. Did you return safely too?”
“Chainwalker, is everything I just heard true? The demons start moving again. The iron-armed Urs appeared on the Arcana continent again?”
“Yes, that is what I heard.”
“What the hell is going on.”
Gunner immediately spoke.
“I saw an elf. Even one hundred.”
“…!!!”
Gunner let out a sigh of relief.
“Damn it, it’s luck that everyone came back alive.”
*
Shall we take a closer look?
I wonder if this is really the effect of greatly increased luck.
First of all, [Magic Eye’s Telescope].
It was clear that he had brought the spoils of the Demon King into his inventory.
Demon King class demon.
Elf.
transcendent.
If it wasn’t for the telescope, I wouldn’t have known at all.
Yes, because I think positively.
Because I found out about the incident at the right time.
I think it’s because of luck.
however.
Smartphone vibrating.
Disaster text from AAU.
At the same time, even texts sent only to players.
The words were clearly written there.
It’s called ‘Dragon’.
The dragon was spotted at the top of the Zero Mountains.
I chanted toward the top of the mountain range.
“You are so cautious that it doesn’t match your size.”
Let’s translate Grandfel.
It means when and where it flew without a trace…!
I’m glad though
I don’t want to destroy the earth as soon as I wake up.
‘Furthermore, according to the information observed by AAU.’
At the top of the Zero Mountains.
[Cracks in a broken dimension] A phenomenon similar to a crack was detected.
I was pretty sure about that.
‘As expected, can a dragon open a rift?’
It’s incomplete, but it’s a rift that connects to the Arcana continent.
Thinking so…
I really feel like I’ve been hit by a lucky letter!
From devils to elves to transcendentalists to dragons to the point of fire.
It’s literally an unprecedented super-large event, right?!
‘If this continues, cracks will inevitably be created.’
Whether as an urgent update or a regular update.
I could guess.
It is said that I am gathering not only my current strength, but also the strength of all allies who participated in the crusade. Between them, it would be nothing but wrinkles in front of the chrysalis.
Not to mention dragons and elves, right?
At least it was the devil and the transcendent.
Because even those two weren’t unusual.
I looked through the telescope again.
The effect of the telescope is to share the field of vision of the demon’s eye.
It means that even if you do not try to feel it, you can automatically feel the sense of the magic eye.
That’s why I was able to notice.
‘It’s not an ordinary devil.’
The magic eye was trembling.
This is a reaction that I couldn’t feel even when I peeped at the demon lord. I don’t know about the top demon lords, but it’s a reaction I couldn’t feel when I saw the middle lords who were close to 30th in the ranking.
furthermore.
‘But it’s different from the demon king.’
In appearance, it was more like a human than a demon.
To the point where you can’t even think of it as a demon unless it’s an outright musical instrument.
finally.
‘Even with the elves in front of them, they don’t seem to be intimidated.’
Elf strength?
I emphasized it several times, but I could tell by looking at Elsidore.
It was Elsidore who had mortally wounded Lockkid, a shadow mercenary, by slaughtering a demon approaching level 800-900 with a single knife. There are hundreds of such elves.
If that’s the case, there’s only one possibility.
“Gorgeous.”
It’s finally starting to move, colossus.
really!
It’s a complicated thing in the head with just a gigantic evil.
There was a transcendental being in the same space as the elves.
How did you know you were transcendental?
I don’t know exactly who it is, but…
it’s because it was a face I ran into at a social gathering place in time and space.
‘He was one of two people who weren’t very interested in me.’
one male and one female.
『In the social world, the existence of Grandfel was like an oasis in the desert or a mirage. I didn’t enjoy social occasions, so I didn’t show up often. On the day he appeared out of nowhere, he drew everyone’s attention…]
That he didn’t get his attention from Grandfel at the social gathering?
…I don’t know what to say with my mouth.
It must be that he is not an average bet among transcendentalists.
large skeleton.
Unruly, shaggy hair.
In fact, even in terms of appearance, it did not belong to the ordinary axis.
The biggest feature of all was that both arms were mechanical.
Thanks to this, I was able to recognize it as soon as I saw it.
Whatever it is, it’s good that everyone showed up.
‘So what’s everyone’s reason?’
The problem is its purpose.
‘Why are you doing this after you’ve been quiet!’
I wish it was like Grandfel’s personality.
Dajjagojja Portal is manifested.
It’s stuffy enough to teleport between them. This!
“Gee. Will you hold on to my ankles even in this situation?”
Look, if only there was a way to get to the Arcana continent.
Would you have run there without fear?
The Granfell I know.
In that sense, should I be
relieved because there is no way out?
‘First of all, reporting the situation is the top priority.’
You should tell the truth to those on the Arcana continent.
That way, you’ll be able to set up a countermeasure in some way.
Of course, there is nothing very relaxed about this situation either.
‘Considering the flow of time…’
Arcana Continent’s time is 4 times faster.
An incident is happening in that place right now.
a few hours later
It wouldn’t be strange if a rift was created in reality.
I opened my mouth.
“Dend.”
“Give me the order, my lord.”
“Take my thoughts to the Chainwalker.”
Information in the head transmitted through telepathy.
Soon, Diend disappeared into thin air as commanded.
Then he appeared in front of me again.
“Lord.”
It really feels like the flow of time is different.
In a time that felt like an instant, I delivered the news to the chain walker and even brought news from them. Anyway… I couldn’t help but be astonished at Diend’s words that continued.
“The Dwarves were accurately grasping the situation.”
Until then, I just thought I was lucky.
Even if I don’t say it, if it’s a chain walker, in advance.
Because you’re making preparations.
The reason I’m shocked is from now on.
“Also, it is said that the imperial army led by the emperor immediately departed. The destination is near the Zero Mountains, and its purpose is to protect the people of the village. It is to follow the pride of the lord who saved Dredsen…!”
…Don’t say it out of emotion, Diend.
I’m serious now.
Because my head is dizzy like it’s going to explode.
Giant Transcendental Elf Dragon Now to the Empire?
I was sure.
This is no luck.
I’m sure it’s a lucky letter.
But I calmly recited it.
“is it.”
It was.
Even in the middle of my agony.
Time on the Arcana Continent flows at 4x speed.
From now on I use my best judgment.
Because it had to be down at 4x speed.
So, I spoke straight away.
“Then go and tell them.”
Even in this situation.
more like me
shamelessly
“I have nothing to worry about.”
Now is the time to realize what you said, Grandfel.
