Episode 776 The True Evil Group (9)
The banquet lasted all morning.
Could it be because of the beautiful anomaly that embroiders the night sky?
If not, is it because of the sky that is as bright as daytime?
I don’t know why.
The important thing now is that no one has come to help yet.
‘Oh no…!’
He struggled with his overflowing mana, but a crisis soon came.
My nose itches like crazy right now.
I want to scratch it once, but if I do, my posture will be disturbed and I don’t know what kind of trouble will happen.
There was no choice for Ray, who did not want to leave a name as a rare murderer who annihilated an aristocratic family after scratching his nose once.
I just have to be patient.
one hour.
another hour.
By the time dawn ends and the day begins to dawn.
A procession of servants continued to clear the banquet hall.
One of them came close to the patron and finally found Ray.
“Oh over there!”
“huh? Is there anything?”
When he called his fellow attendants, they recognized Ray from afar and opened their mouths.
good!
Finally this madness is over!
Anyone is fine, so if you give me a breathing space, I’ll break the magic tool and scratch my nose!
Seeing hope, his face turned bright.
Contrary to expectations, however, the servants who seemed to be walking towards the support soon turned their backs after saying something to each other.
Ray was perplexed.
‘Oh no! Where!’
He raised his hearing with mana and listened to the conversations of the attendants.
“Yesterday, lady… No, the Count told me not to disturb him no matter what happens as he has an honored guest in the garden.”
“I see. I almost came close. What does that mean anyway?”
“I don’t know. Seeing them still in the same posture, isn’t it like a stone statue?”
“There are also strange stone statues. Looking at it, it must have been the one that emitted light during the night.”
Maybe it’s because this place is quite far away from sponsorship? The servants were just thinking of themselves as interesting statues.
wait!
I mean, there are still people here!
The hope I had barely grasped disappeared as suddenly as it had come.
Rey, who had been abandoned by both heaven and people, vainly followed their backs with her eyes.

The ray of light fired from Count Cerian’s family has already been reported to Celia Castle.
The phenomenon that lasted all morning and the strange wave of mana made even the Wizards Association curious.
“What the hell could that be?”
Count Vincent stroked his beard as he watched the intense beam of light faintly visible over the castle.
He was the son of Marquis Vincent, a famous family of magic.
Although he did not inherit the family of marquis, he had a special eye for magic as he was a member of the Wizards Association.
That must be magic.
It was also range magic that used a huge amount of mana.
Thinking that something like that had happened openly in the kingdom of Celia made me curious and curious at the same time.
he said to the messenger next to him.
“Tell the association that you will recruit people. I must go and see for myself.”
“All right.”
The messenger, who got down on one knee, immediately informed the royal family and the association.
Count Vincent, who has risen to the 5th circle master, does not move except for dizzying events.
Since it was something he was interested in, the Association also thought it worth investigating.
As many as 30 wizards gathered for this event.
While there were those who were purely curious, the majority were those who tried to catch Count Vincent’s eyes somehow.
He is the son-in-law of the Marquis Vincent.
In addition, since he was a person who sat on the title of count only with his own ability, it could be said that the king was quite on the side of the powerful among the nobles.
If it looked good to him like that, it was good to see that life from now on was blooming.
In response, a search party consisting of over twenty nobles and a few elderly wizards was formed.

The morning passed and the day passed.
Now the sun is setting again.
Naturally, Ray was still immobilized.
‘What should I do with this now?’
Mana doesn’t have much to worry about.
This is because there is no way it will become insufficient as long as you start using atmospheric mana in the first place.
However, if there was a problem, it was that the spirit and stamina were not infinite.
Even if the body is strengthened with mana, there is a limit.
What’s more, he had to deal with the huge amount of mana he had for one day.
As a result, my legs were already shaking.
If a few days passed like this without being able to sleep or even drink water, you would surely not be able to hold on even if you were yourself.
‘There is only one way.’
to find someone to help.
Even if only the three of them, who claim to be able to use magic, gather together, there will be some time to rest.
At that time, if the magic tool is completely destroyed, there will be a little shock, but it can be freed from it.
However, even if you know how, the situation does not change.
This is because no one will help in the first place, and not a single ant cub passes by.
It seemed that the courtiers he met in the morning were also paying attention to the servants of the mansion.
A swearing sound rose from his natural throat.
What crime did you have to go through like this!
Did God really exist?
My faith, which hadn’t been there before, was greatly shaken.
anyone is good!
Please come quickly and save me!
His silent cries did not reach anyone.
It was the evening of the first day after Ray started drifting away from the county’s patronage.
* * *
One of the branches of the Black Room.
In the small Daejeon, everyone in their thirtieth division was having a conversation with serious faces.
“Does that make sense?”
Forty-five, who had been removed from the ban by Ray and was now acting as a spy, said, putting his clenched hands to his neck.
“…I can’t believe it easily either. Please explain in detail.”
Thirty-one, who could be said to be second among them, glared at ninety-eight.
The number difference was so great that ninety-eight couldn’t even breathe deeply.
He was just lying flat on the ground and repeating the information he had brought.
“That seems to have happened to the elder who settled down in the Cerian Mountains.”
Quaang-!
Thirty-five, who had been listening silently, struck the podium with his fist.
“So what the hell is that all about! Who the hell is doing harm to the elder!”
“I don’t know either! However, I heard that the bandit den was completely destroyed and the elder was absent!”
At the words of ninety-eight, thirty-five shut up.
The nest was destroyed, but the elder could not be absent.
No, if there was an elder in the first place, there was no way that the den would be defeated.
That means either the elder left the mission or disappeared with the lair, but the latter case was honestly hard to imagine.
Thirty-five said.
“I don’t know about your 90s, but we’ve met the elder once before. He was a man with red hair and scars on his face. At that time, we were given the name Thirty, and beyond pride, we were wrapped in pride. He was the one who changed it in an instant.”
The frightened voice from the previous number had never been heard by ninety-eight.
Swallowing a gulp, he asked, risking his death.
“How did you change it…”
Then, instead of thirty-five, Thirty Days said.
“The Elder has subdued us all with only seven swings of his sword.”
“Seven times!”
Ninety-eight exclaimed in amazement.
Speaking of the thirtieth generation, each individual is capable of handling the famous knights of a country as if they were children.
There were not just one or two of them, but ten.
To subdue all of them by swinging the sword seven times was only possible with an indescribable difference in skill.
Hearing those words, I couldn’t understand the fact that the ninety-eight bandit’s den had collapsed.
Isn’t it that even though there was such an absolute person!
Thirty-one shook his head as if he knew what ninety-eight was thinking.
“It’s hard to think, but he must have been vacant. Otherwise, it cannot be explained.”
“yes. I think so too.”
If you denied it here, your throat would run away, so the only way to survive was to affirm it unconditionally.
Thirty-one asked if he liked Ninety-eight’s answer.
“Come to think of it, your colleague said he met the saint in that rumor. Which do you feel is more serious then or now?”
In other words, it is a question of who looks stronger.
Of course, the answer was fixed.
Ninety-eight hurriedly answered.
“Of course he is an elder.”
“hmm. I guess so too. But on the other hand, it’s disappointing. I wanted to test the extent to which I defeated the undead dragon alone.”
Forty-five looked at Thirty Days muttering, ‘Is there anything I can do?’
‘Crazy bastard.’
At the moment of forty-five, when I had once competed with the saint in that rumor, I thought maybe thirty days had turned around.
It’s not enough to activate the 4th circle magic only with the starter word, it’s a guy who cancels the top level 5th circle magic in seconds.
Moreover, how much mana can be contained in one body? Even after so much magic, his stamina remained, breaking even the black ban that was planted in him.
And the one who even replaced it with a new gold one was the saint who speaks of thirty days.
If it was the red-haired elder they were talking about, I could guarantee that they would not be able to compete with only one or two members of the thirtieth generation.
without even dreaming of such a fact.
Ninety-eight was oblivious to flattery.
“Even a saint is no big deal to the people of the thirtieth generation here. Wouldn’t it be enough to deal with just three or four people from the 60th division?”
“ha ha ha. No matter how hard it is for sixty. Isn’t the name and color the lineage of that hero?”
“How come ninety-somethings seem to be polishing their mouths, not their skills. hahahaha.”
At first glance, he seemed to be in a good mood.
Ninety-eight even painted his face with gold.
“It is never empty talk. It might be difficult for people in their 60s, but people in their 30s should be able to deal with it.”
“That’s natural. Even if only one of these guys goes outside right now, I’ll be able to easily subdue a saint.”
I was laughing with a hint of murder, but at ninety-eight I almost peed a little.
All he could do was laugh at him.
Flattering is good, but crossing the line is rather poisonous.
He was a man who knew how to back down.
Forty-five joined the conversation.
“Anyway, that is. You’re not here just to talk about it, are you? What did they say in the room?”
Ninety-eight, who had nothing to say because he was cut off while flattering, did not refuse the outstretched hand of salvation.
“yes. This throne entrusted the search to the people of the 30th division.”
“search?”
They were interested in the words of ninety-eight, which refers to all thirty, not to designate anyone.
