Episode 808 Danger to Baybon (4)
If the situation were like this, now that I think about it, what Heukbang wants can be said to be two things.
The first is to cause chaos in Baybon Kingdom.
Since the outer wall has collapsed, it will take time to restore it, and it will cost that much.
In addition, it may be an opportunity for the people who have believed that it is safe for hundreds of years to become a little suspicious of the royal family.
If he was planning something to take advantage of this, it was worth using in the black room.
The second is to exclude the Deungwoldan for the soon-to-be-opened Shinmahoe.
It’s not like they’re attacking in the middle of the night, but last night’s training grounds are closely embroidered with woolen hats as proof of that.
It was clear that Heukbang wanted to get rid of the light moon stage.
The reason must be to remove the buds that will grow in advance.
If they become powerful under the guidance of each country, and later lead the kingdom, it will be a headache for them.
‘I don’t know how much these youngsters will grow.’
After all, the talents raised in the Heukbang had much more potential.
If they were to infiltrate the kingdom, countless nobles would cling to them around them who showed outstanding skills at a young age.
After that, it’s up to you to take care of the kingdom yourself.
Of course, Heukbang probably didn’t know the skills of the Teng Yue Dan.
In fact, since all the powerful men in the Black Room who were sent to attack the Tengyuedan have disappeared in their own hands, they must think that the Tengyuedan is stronger than expected.
Looking at the increasing level of attackers, it is quite predictable.
Arriving at the inner castle, Ray met a restless gay man in front of the castle gate.
“Saint.”
“Shh! Why don’t you gossip around the neighborhood? Please change your name.”
“I’m sorry. Rather, this now.”
He held out an old parchment.
Inside, quite complicated magic formulas were continuously connected.
“Wow.”
I was in awe of admiration.
This is simply not something that can be dismissed as difficult.
Even if a high-circle magician could see it, it would be all he could do to recognize it.
“What’s this?”
“…It’s top secret, but it’s part of the magic formula for the royal pillar.”
is this a part?
Even though it’s a relic of the magic era, how much effort did you put into a single pillar?
Gayman added, as if he had noticed his intentions.
“Because the purpose of making pillars is not just to support the castle. Originally, it’s a saint… even if you are, it’s something I can’t show you, but since it’s a matter, I’ll make an exception.”
He tried to say that he was a saint, but he received glares and quickly changed his title.
“So why are you showing this to me?”
“I heard that you have a lot of magical knowledge. Find out why the pillar suddenly collapsed.”
“Mmm.”
Ray thought for a moment.
It’s not that hard to find out.
However, if there is a problem, it is difficult to show presence in front of people like this.
‘I’m sure the attention will be focused the moment I start the investigation.’
Not only the people in the kingdom, but also in the black room would be secretly watching the current situation.
In the midst of that, if you go out on your own, it’s no different from advertising asking you to look at me.
After all, this is a kingdom that is sincere about magic.
Even if it wasn’t him, there would be plenty of people to investigate.
Thinking so, Ray conveyed his intentions to Gayman.
“It is too risky for me to go out on my own. I don’t think I can help you this time.”
“Is that so?”
Only Gay, who was blatantly regretful, soon agreed.
“All right. We’ll figure this out on our own. But if you still can’t make progress, then please lend me your strength.”
“What do you like?”
Thinking that there was no such thing, Ray readily accepted it.
Even if it was a magic tool, it was only a few pillars collapsed.
The famous wizards who have been sitting on chairs since their youth and have been studying all day and night, can’t solve that one thing.
“Then do me one favor.”
“Tell me.”
“Please call the guest celebrity you were calling us as soon as possible.”
It was an unexpected statement, so Gayman was puzzled.
“It is not difficult. Why?”
“I waited for over a week to receive some instruction. Everyone is worried that if this happens, they will leave Baybon as it is.”
“iced coffee.”
He nodded as if he knew.
Actually, what you just said was a lie.
In order to keep the deungwoldan in the castle, such an excuse was needed, but for now, there was no other way than to invite a prominent figure.
‘It’s obvious that black rooms are everywhere, but I can’t just let them die.’
The light moon group had an obligation to fight bloodily with Heukbang on the battlefield.
I can’t afford to lose myself in a place like this.
“All right. Then we’ll make plans for tomorrow.”
“thank you.”
“I will come to call you when the time is right.”
After speaking, Geyman moved briskly.

“….”
“Is it finally over?”
“It was a short time.”
They received training from an unknown old man.
The number at the beginning has decreased significantly, and now there are only about five people left.
Before I knew it, I was able to respond quite well to the pouring divine power, and I was able to rise to a new level after repeating my growth under the teachings of the old man.
The old man laughed and said.
“You’re still a kid. Well, this should be useful enough to send out.”
“I want to test my strength.”
“Arthur. This place will become a mess.”
“It’s the last time, isn’t it okay? Teach the disciples the sky.”
last number.
Her name must have been Lilith.
His eyes are hidden by his shaggy hair, but the corners of his mouth that are always raised are strangely annoying.
‘Tsk. It’s a shameful guy.’
“good night. Only you guys will be able to afford to deal with them, so try to attack them all at once.”
“….”
“..”
No one jumped at those words.
The old man let out a laugh as if it were absurd.
“Whenever you say you want to test your strength, do you worry about me? At your level, a hundred years is too early. Don’t worry and try with all your might.”
“…then I won’t decline.”
“Things without quirks.”
Each of the four of them lunged at the old man.
Woo-woo-!
An enormous magic that feels heavy in your hand.
Their energy, dense enough to push away the divine power, oppressed the old man.
Ku-gu-gu-gu-!
Every time I stretch out my hand, I hear a thunderclap.
Even though attacks rained down on him from all sides, the old man easily defended himself.
“We are still far away.”
As if chasing away an insect, he motions lightly, and the model of the woman caught in it falls forward.
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
Then, he stepped out with his front foot and scattered the stones he had picked up before he knew it.
The moment I wanted to pull my hand slightly toward my side, a small stone that was shot like a comb was fired at the three people who were attacking me.
Peeing-!
Kaaaang-!
Turong-!
While they were distracted by the stone, the old man’s hand moved gracefully again.
His wrinkled arm, which snaked forward, soon dropped the three swords.
“Ugh!”
“I lost.”
All four conceded defeat.
He taps his lower back, as if his shoes are sore from moving for the first time in a while.
“Ego waist. More than that, you guys just talk slickly and don’t mess around.”
At those words, Lilith took out her sword belatedly.
“I was waiting.”
“Wait. Are you saying you’re going to fight alone?”
“Couldn’t you?”
“There’s nothing wrong with that, but you’re overly conceited. Would you come to your senses if you were sick?”
“Anytime you want.”
At his provocation, the old man picked up a leaf.
“good night. Come on.”
Those who watched it were stunned.
Even though you must have watched the fight just now, are you thinking of going alone?
It’s reckless.
“You are overdoing it.”
“That guy is the type to learn while getting hit right from the start.”
It was clear that sooner or later he would lie on the floor and crawl.
However, contrary to their expectations, the results went in a completely different direction.
It was because Lilith, who had briefly confronted with her sword, suddenly admitted defeat.
“I lost.”
“Eh?”
The old man frowned as if he was a little surprised.
To make the body run hot and then toss it back.
However, when I saw this guy, I was more curious than angry because he wasn’t the kind of guy who would back down without reason after saying something.
“Have you had any change of heart?”
“yes. I didn’t know when I was watching the fight, but I knew it when I stood face to face. I don’t think I’ll beat you now.”
“now?”
There are very offensive words in it.
“I heard that you can win the next fight.”
“It is as you say. If a year or a half more passes, it will be difficult to predict the outcome.”
“Hoo.”
A small guy makes fun of his mouth.
Since the excitement had cooled, the old man shook off the mana and saved it.
“Did you say half a year? I will look forward to it.”
“I will not disappoint you.”
Lilith.
Come to think of it, I don’t know why this one is named differently from the other numbers.
Had he been favored by the elders?
‘There’s no way that’s the case with that strange personality.’
It’s nice to have a friendly spirit, but I don’t think the energetic elders will tolerate it.
The old man said with his hands behind his back.
“Leave. Go back and do your work.”
“Thank you so far.”
“I’ll go.”
“…then.”
After saying hello to each other, they started mental arithmetic without saying who came first.
Less than a month had passed, but they were markedly different from when they first came.
It was the moment when the monsters were finally released out of the world.
* * *
Even until the next day, Baybon was noisy.
The outer fortress collapsed overnight, and even nobles were summoned because of it, so it was only natural if it was natural.
While the nobles who had gathered after hearing the summons had gathered from the morning and had a meeting.
The Deungwoldan were sitting together at the Great Hall to finally receive the long-awaited teaching.
“Who is coming?”
“It’s a kingdom famous for magic, so a high-ranking wizard will definitely come.”
It wasn’t just those who practiced magic that were interested.
Even the swordsmen couldn’t control their excitement at the fact that they were meeting a prestigious wizard.
Time passed and passed again.
Even after more than an hour had passed since the promised time, not even a celebrity was seen, so the members began to mutter.
“What else happened?”
“No way… Since yesterday, the association has been investigating, will anything unusual happen?”
Of course, there is no way to catch people.
Since the outer castle collapsed, there was no law that the inner castle should not collapse.
When they’re making multiple conspiracy theories.
Loud laughter could be heard over the rocks in the distance.
“Uh ha ha ha. sorry. On the way, I got lost. What is it?”
small stature.
The bright red nose, ripe like a tomato, is particularly impressive.
A drunken middle-aged man staggered along.
Could it be that this guy…no, he’s a guest celebrity in Baybon?
While everyone was anxious, Ray fearlessly asked.
“Are you a wizard with high virtue?”
The sons of nobles opened their mouths at the savage question, which had no manners to be found, but to be honest, no one stopped it because it was something they were curious about as well.
The middle-aged man showed off his yellow teeth.
“I guess I look virtuous.”
The answer was that.
The old beggar grandpa, who made me wait for more than a week and then introduced me at best, which is common in any beggar den.
Okay, let’s destroy all the pillar roots that remain in the castle.
Ray, who was watching the beggar wizard, made up his mind.
