Episode 406. Four days (1)
I scolded the new chick.
“Don’t be cocky, Prosnax.”
“As the Dark Dragon said, I will forgive you today. human.”
“What about that chick, Commander-in-Chief?”
As I said with my beak, this was Bingryong Prosnax.
‘It’s been a while since I realized the power of cubic.’
Do you mean that the words you spit out must come true? Prosnax manifested a polymorph, changed his appearance to a new chick, tore through the dimension and pursued me. The reason is obvious.
‘Anyway, I’m good at worrying others, so I am.’
I sighed inwardly and replied to Harkon.
“It was successful because of your sacrifice.”
“My sacrifice is… no way!”
“Yes, I have purified the fruit of evil.”
What process did Prosnax go through to be purified because it was me who manifested the extremes of healing magic and died on the Arcana continent? Also, it was unknown what the situation was like on the Arcana continent.
so.
-“Dark Dark Dragon!”
The moment when Prosnax tore through the air and revealed the appearance of a new chick.
I was rather delighted than surprised. Still, the relief that it wasn’t a dog death. On top of that, I felt like I could hear the details of what had happened in detail.
however.
A fluttering sunbeam.
-“I don’t know because I’m rushing after you?”
Indeed, a hatchling who is faithful to his emotions even in a flurry…!
‘At this rate, I have no choice but to ask Highel.’
The moment I was in agony.
Harkon had knocked on the door of the office.
He is a Harkon trained in the Grandpel style of speech.
It seemed that he immediately recognized the meaning behind my words.
“It seems that evil dragons appeared on the Arcana continent after Yunaxus. That’s the Bingryong Frosnax… But can I ask why it’s in the form of a chick?”
Regarding that, Prosnax answered.
“Human. Appearance is meaningless to dragons as long as polymorphs exist. You want me to be a new chick, so I just follow orders. Isn’t that right, Dark Dragon?”
A new chick doesn’t mean a real new chick.
It’s because he’s a hatchling, so he doesn’t understand the analogy.
Still, it was good as long as it was a chickpea.
‘Although the hair is flying.’
Above all else, try to come back as a massive Bingryong in the office. Aside from being a mess, the luxurious golden palace may collapse.
Harkon nodded startled.
“As expected, it was the commander-in-chief’s influence. indeed.”
I looked at Harkon in admiration.
‘You can’t completely hide your feelings, Harkondo.’
Harkon was an old veteran.
He went through countless battlefields and suffered extreme ordeals to the point of losing both legs at the end. Therefore, the emotional change is not revealed in most things. However, there was a hint of hope in Harkon’s face.
‘I’m more sorry to say this.’
A questionable choice made by the emperor.
A blockade was declared in Antonium.
Cloudy’s prodigal son may be involved in the situation.
No matter how you look at it, it wasn’t my fault.
I am Lee Ho-yeol.
It was not easy to speak out hastily.
However, could Grandfel, who does not hide anything, allow silence?
Eventually I opened my mouth.
“Antonium is under blockade, Harkon.”
“…Even if not, I heard the rumors. It was true.”
“Also, there is evil involved in the blockade.”
“To call it evil must be the Seven Deadly Sins.”
“That’s right. The last seven deadly sins are arrogance.”
I spoke.
“At the same time, she is Cloudy, who has the same silver hair as me.”
“…!”
Harkon’s pupils shake.
I can’t help but feel frustrated
But I don’t know the specific story yet.
In the first place, it was [Understanding the Curse of Darkness] that I faced with the arrogant guy.
It was only a moment in the memory of ‘that day’.
‘I don’t even know what kind of relationship it is.’
But nothing to worry about.
Emilio, the king of scavengers.
Now that I have a relationship with him.
I was able to grasp the dynamics of Antonium through the sewer.
Harkon nodded at Emilio’s name.
“A devastated continent must be an environment where scavengers cannot but infest. Having gathered such scavengers means that they are not ordinary people… To be able to embrace even such a person. He is also the commander-in-chief.”
…Not because I embraced it, but because of the butterfly effect.
I was silent about it. It was because he was struggling to answer, but he noticed the worry on Harkon’s face. I’ll have to get to the point soon.
“I will permit the Lion Heart Knights to enter the Arcana continent. The date and time is exactly this time tomorrow. The purpose is to find out the situation in Antonium. and.”
At the words that follow, Harkon’s eyes shine.
“It’s a face-to-face with the emperor.”
“!”
The arrogant guy must have plans.
It seemed that I, not anyone else, wanted to set foot in Antonium. If it was like before, I might have entered Antonium right away. However, as I said before, it is different from the past when I struggled alone.
As much as the Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Forces of the Holy War acknowledged its weight.
I have many friends.
Because I had to lead and take responsibility for them.
chuck.
Soon, Harkon lowered his head with a solemn expression.
“Ryan Hart will follow the command of the Commander-in-Chief.”
Harkon retreated to prepare for the final campaign, leaving only me and Prosnax in the office. So, let’s get serious about it now. I asked the new chick.
so.
“What happened to the evil you swallowed, Prosnax?”
*
Time on the Arcana continent was passing four times faster than in reality.
exhaustion of power.
In the aftermath, Bellier’s eyelids flinched as they collapsed.
“…?”
strange ceiling.
small family home.
A man with blonde hair came into sight.
“This is…”
“Senior Bellier are you okay?!”
“Senior Banshi…?”
“Fortunately, the. Really!”
A skilled mage of the Mage Tower must decide on her major magic.
It means that unless you create a new school with exceptional talent like Hoyeol, Marcelo or Matisse, you will only polish the magic you chose from the time you were a skilled mage.
“It really took an hour. You worked hard, aww.”
“lol. That’s too much, bro.”
However, Nash William was a wizard with the skills of a skilled wizard even though he did not belong to the Mage Tower.
Healing magic was also included among the magic he mastered through the high-quality magic books left in the Imperial Library, so his level was comparable to that of a skilled wizard of the Healing School.
Bellier noticed the hard work and thanked him.
“Thank you, Sir Nash.”
“Oh no!”
Nash’s face turns red.
Banshee’s eyebrows twitched mischievously.
There was no time to tell jokes.
Bellier asked right away.
“Where is Chief Lee Ho-yeol?”
Recall your last memory.
A way to purify the evil fruit the dragon swallowed.
It manifests the extreme of healing magic and infuses powerful vitality into the fruit. To be precise, he sacrificed his life to germinate the seeds of the World Tree that the Fruit of Evil had embraced.
‘and.’
Apparently Chief Lee assumed the role on his behalf.
Benshe and Nash.
The faces of the two brothers harden.
“Unfortunately, me and my brother Nash did not witness the last appearance of Chief Bellier. But one thing is clear…”
Seuk.
Banshee’s finger pointed beyond the window.
“Senior Bellier’s research is not wrong.”
“…?”
Bellier got up from the bed as if possessed by something and went outside.
then it appeared
A sprout that bloomed from the seed of a large world tree in the northern part of Antonium.
“At first, I wondered what kind of rock it was… Adventurers immediately recognized it, right? That is the seed of the world tree. Perhaps Chief Lee showed it to adventurers before.”
Yes.
It was Ho-yeol who had already sprouted the seeds of the world tree through Hayel’s {blessing} once in the [Secret Garden of the World Tree]. But Belle knew.
“…No, it’s different from back then.”
However, that seed was the seed of a whole world tree untainted by evil. In order to sprout the seeds of the world tree in the midst of the fruit of evil, the blessing of Hiel is not enough.
Like I said before, it’s a powerful life force.
The ultimate in healing magic.
It meant a sacrifice was needed.
To Bellier’s firm words, Bensh replied.
“Then why don’t you ask me directly?”
Where Banshee’s eyes were headed, there were adventurers looking at the sprouts of the World Tree. As patients, those who sought a private room for the healing school. It was Leoni Hisagi, Nam Tae-min.
Bellier approached them.
‘If it’s them.’
As with Yunaxus, they were the ones who fought to the death with Prosnax. If it were them, they would know the whereabouts of Chief Lee. As Bellier approached, all three turned their heads as if they felt a presence.
“…!”
But Belle couldn’t ask right away.
Even if it’s a great healing wizard.
The human mind is incurable.
Because the inside of their wounded face was clearly revealed.
Hisagi opened his mouth cautiously.
“Prosnax disappeared with the commander who became a ray of light. And in the place where the rays of light disappeared… only the seeds of the World Tree that sprouted remained.”
Hisagi asked.
“…Is the plan a success, Mr. Bellier?”
Leras Till.
If he crouched down to become a sphere of light, did our upright Chief Lee become a beam of light? Did he stay upright to the end despite the excruciating pain? It was the moment when Bellier, who had been thinking, nodded.
Leonie gritted it.
“Is this crazy thing a plan?”
Looking at Bellier, he continued his words clearly.
“You and Lee Ho-yeol are crazy. know?! Giving up your life is the only way?! Then you should know when to give up. Why are you driving yourself so far into a precipice?!”
…Ugh, don’t let this go?!
Taemin Nam covered Leonie’s mouth with a large hand, but Leonie had already said everything. It was rude to break the formality. Bellier just smiled bitterly.
“You are no different, are you?”
drive yourself into a corner
Heading to the cliff was no different for the Allied Crusade.
Bellier was the best healing wizard in existence.
Even Velier, who could heal most injuries right away.
They were the three people who healed by hanging on for about a week.
Especially.
“How is the pain in Miss Leonie’s left arm?”
Berserker.
“what?”
Leoni always fights with blood and injuries. Leonie’s left arm is only attached. The condition was not much different from Harkon’s two legs, which had to be amputated.
It was only then that Nam Tae-min was taken aback by Bellier’s words.
“Come to think of it, where did you sell one sack?”
“…you just shut up.”
Leonie, who used to wield dual swords freely, lost her left arm.
It is safe to say that the power was cut in half.
Even so, he ran into Prosnax, who was more dangerous than Yunaxus.
risk your life
When Leonie was quiet, Bellier continued.
“Like us, Chief Lee was prepared.”
I didn’t want to admit it, but that was the ending.
Bellier looked at the buds of the world tree that had bloomed brilliantly.
Is this sprout worth exchanging Ho-yeol’s life for?
Chief Lee I….
It was the moment Bellier suppressed his emotions.
Hisagi lowered his lips.
“What do you plan to do from now on?”
“well.”
Bellier looked at the village at the imperial people.
Healing their condition is the top priority right now.
Hisagi spoke first before answering.
“We intend to wait.”
“Waiting…”
“Four days.”
“…?”
“Because you said you would start over in four days.”
four days
to that word.
Memories that were blurry due to magical exhaustion came back.
-“I’ll see you in four days.”
“…!”
Those words that Hoyeol left behind.
“Chief Lee left me a similar message.”
“…yes?”
“If only for four days.”
A longing sage.
Hisagi’s head spins busily.
Find the meaning hidden in the Grandpel style of speech.
“…a possibility came to mind.”
“Possibility? What? Don’t be intimidated!”
“Perhaps the commander-in-chief may be in reality at this moment.”
“What?!”
It was the moment when even Bellier’s green pupils widened.
Pajijik-!
Suddenly, the air began to split.
Bellier, the magician.
And the William brothers who were away were the first to notice.
That’s no ordinary portal.
Connecting dimension to dimension.
In other words, it was a portal of strangeness manifested in reality.
Eventually, a figure emerged from the portal.
The shape appears.
But it was small.
no it was insignificant
“…is that?”
Not suitable for grand production.
Because he was such a tiny little chick.
However, the voice was never light.
“Pay attention, people.”
“…what? Is that a chick?”
“Bingryong.”
“Yeah, no matter who sees it, it’s Bingari…. It’s not what? Bingryong?!”
The content was the same.
flutter.
dainty flapping of wings.
“This body, Prosnax-nim, is the commander of the allied forces of our great Dark Dragon, your temple in reality. It means that he returned with the order he gave!!”
“!!!”
