Chapter 28: Have Mercy (1)
"It's urgent!"
A raider who entered Seldam's Royal Skadium appeared with an important letter.
The king and ministers, who were in the midst of a meeting about the war ahead, looked at him with displeasure.
"What the hell is going on, so a gangster enters Daejeon recklessly?"
Instead, one of them took a step forward and beat the gangster.
Originally, it was necessary to go through the process of sending a letter to a low-ranking official, and a low-ranking official filing an appeal to the king through a high-ranking official.
However, there was no way to get a good look at it, as a raider who was not a nobleman entered the battle of the Skadium, which was difficult for even nobles to enter.
However, the deputy's voice was not heard in the ears of the raiders.
With a heavy breath, he knelt before the king and hurriedly reported.
"I'm sorry for such a rude person to set foot here. Ha, but I didn't have time to follow the procedure."
"Hey! Come on, take this guy... !"
stop.
As the ambassador, who thought he had been ignored, blushed and tried to summon the guard, King Friedmoor stopped him.
The king clenched his jaw with his right hand and gave the order to the raiders.
"Tell me in detail what is going on. But, if it's not a big deal, I'll play the sutra.
"You will surely be delighted!"
The raider slammed his head into the ground and reported every word he had brought to the king.
It was about the battle that took place just last night in Aegean, and the king and ministers, who had heard everything, looked at the raiders in disbelief.
"Is that really true? Are you really saying that the three elders subdued a large army of 50,000?!"
To King Friedmoor's cry, the stalker shook his head again and answered.
"That's right!"
"Ha, ha, your Majesty. How far can you believe the words of a single gangster?"
"Come right. Trusting the words of a single scammer is probably... ."
When some of the ministers showed distrust and looked at the messenger with suspicion, they shook their heads urgently saying that they were not.
"I am not lying! What kind of safety would I tell the supreme of this country a lie!"
"Even so, it's so absurd ."
your Majesty.
That was then.
An old man who had been silent in the first row stepped out.
The audience became quiet at the appearance of the old man.
It was proof that the status of the elderly in Seldam was great.
The old man, Marquis Bell, spoke to King Friedmoor.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, can I tell you about your grandson's grandson for a moment?
"The Marquis deserves it. Speak."
The ministers who had just expressed disbelief at King Friedmoor's words flinched.
He was not even given the right to speak, but he was talking about the situation a while ago, when he ignored the king and opened his mouth.
The Marquis Belle smiled kindly and said.
"Perhaps what the rapist said is true."
"Why do you think so?"
"Because my grandson stayed with Beiryl Onyx in Abraxas, the northernmost part of Ban, not long ago."
"With Beiryl?"
"And Beiril was also with Aegeene yesterday. Isn't that right, rapist?
"No, that's right!"
The striker nodded his head vigorously.
Marquis Bell nodded and looked back at King Friedmoor.
"Soshin was in constant contact with Beiryl Onyx, so he was aware of the situation. also ."
also?
"I have also received reports that my grandson, Jamie Wellton, has reached the heights of supremacy."
King Friedmoor jumped up in surprise.
The ministers also doubted their ears.
supreme realm!
No one was here who didn't know what that meant.
"Is it something you can take responsibility for, Marquis?"
"I will bet my honor."
"If you do, why are you talking now?"
"It's because I wasn't even sure of my beliefs. I do not disbelieve Beiryl Onyx, but it has not been proven, so please forgive me for not speaking to Your Majesty right away."
"So, does that mean you're sure now?"
"It is. A sorcerer who has reached the supreme state will be able to run through that distance at once, and he will be able to subdue a large army of enemies alone."
That's right.
Even if you climb to the 8th class level right now, you can travel a great distance alone, but if you are the 9th class, the supreme level, it will not be as difficult as going back and forth between the ends of the continent.
Soon, as if to prove that statement.
"Lung, Your Majesty!"
The minister, who was standing at the end, heard someone quietly approached him, and, in shock, came to the king and knelt down.
What's going on?
"I just got a report from Aegean! 20,000 and 8,000 enemy soldiers lost their lives, and the remaining 20,000 and 2,000 were taken prisoner, Commander Katarina and Lance Master Draxar were captured, and Sword Master Ferros is missing, but it is said that they are presumed dead!!"
In other words, it was not enough for Jamie Welton to succeed in defending alone, inflicting a huge blow to the enemy.
Hearing the results, the stadium was filled with shouts for a while.
'Jamie Welton.'
Isabel, the princess sitting quietly behind King Friedmoor, smiled.
Only here she was not surprised.
Because I already knew.
'I didn't know when, but that was today.'
She knew this sight.
Because she has the ability to foresight.
So, I knew what was going to happen next.
' Jamie. Darkness is coming.'
The darkness, which may be light to some, will gradually encroach on Jamie.
And the person who knows it better than anyone else is Jamie Welton.
'What are you going to do now?'
Can you get through the rough thorny road?
The end of the thorny road could not be seen even with foresight.
The smile on Isabelle's face disappeared, and the depth of the water filled up.
* * *
" My son."
Earl Welton, who heard the news too late, smiled faintly.
He did not know that his son had defeated 50,000 enemy troops alone.
It was hard to believe at first, but I couldn't believe the sudden news that came from the Royal Stadium.
'It's the supreme state.'
How would Sears react if he heard of this?
It's been about two months since Jamie hasn't come home, so Sears was struggling quite a bit.
So, sharing this news will surely bring you back some vitality.
It will be the same for her daughter Sarah.
I was already excited to see my son.
"Are you going to be stronger than me now?"
As you will see for yourself, Earl Wellton did not reveal everything in front of his children.
Because I didn't want to be overtaken by my son yet.
Still, as a parent, shouldn't you protect that level of self-esteem?
"Fufu. What a great kid. Oh, is it rude to call you a child now?"
no. He's not as big as a kid, but he's still only thirteen.
Earl Wellton saw an old man walking side by side on horseback.
He was also a person who had just emerged from the world after five years of self-reliance, and Earl Welton felt an undeniable power in him whom he had not seen in a long time.
Archmage Offen Ginger, the first elder of the magic world and known as the king's teacher, said with a smile.
"Huhu, I will be very surprised to see you after a long time."
The last time I saw it was 5 years ago, right after the demon crisis that took place in the magic world.
At that time, he was still a child, but now he has become an archmage who has reached the supreme state.
"Genius is scary."
"I am also my son, but I am a little scared."
"I want to see you as soon as possible."
"So do I."
The two smiled low and speeded up.
* * *
Two days have passed.
Jamie saw Katarina locked up in a dungeon.
Imprisoned with the mana restraint restraint device, for the past few days, he had been wrinkled as if he had been decades old.
In fact, that's what Katarina really is.
Previously, she had only maintained her youth by using magic and fake skin.
Katarina's real age is eighty-four years old.
He was the same age as the Marquis Linmer.
" Kill it."
"You said I plan to make it mine."
"Do you know how to be forgiven by the 12 gods for doing such a wrathful thing?"
it's okay. Because I am a saint."
Saying so, Jamie showed the sentence with the pie in her left hand.
Katarina's eyes trembled.
He looked very angry, but that was all he could do now.
Winners don't have to look at losers.
Jamie squatted and spoke, eye level with Katarina.
"But the preparation process is taking a little longer because the team has good skills and there is a high chance of failure. So just make yourself comfortable. Don't stress yourself out."
"You devil."
"If I could kill you guys, I could be more than a demon."
As Jamie warns with gleaming purple eyes, Katarina twitches and looks away.
Those purple eyes contained an ominous ominous feeling that just gave them goosebumps.
Jamie snorted and saw the man lying corpse next to Katarina.
He was a very famous Lance Master as Draxar.
His favorite lover, Gaybolg, is now temporarily sealed off here.
The reason for the seal was that the gay ball itself was a powerful cursed magic spear.
If you leave it alone, the weak lives around you will die from the curse of the gaybolg.
So, if you get stabbed directly, whoever your opponent is, you have no choice but to die.
'I don't know if the other one is dead or alive. There aren't too many traces of it to say he's dead.'
Draksar, who was swallowed up by the light right in front of him, was still alive, so did Peros disappear without a trace?
Jamie thought no.
However, there was no sign of it being felt.
'Since detection magic has been spread throughout the city, if there is any unidentified movement, you will be able to tell.'
No matter how hard a sword master is, he will not be able to escape the detection magic of a 9th class wizard.
Maybe he had that kind of power.
'What if, even if it can't be detected.'
Jamie walked out of the dungeon with a strange expression on her face.
And the next day.
Hmm.
Jamie scratched his chin as he looked at the corpses of Katarina and Draxar, whose necks and hearts had disappeared.
He was fine until yesterday, and the guards came down periodically to check their condition.
However, he was killed last night.
Seeing that he had his head cut and his heart cut out, he seemed to know the plan to turn him into an undead.
Jamie laughed.
"This is a goal-scoring guy."
He moved freely in the detection magic he had laid down.
That means it has the power to deceive detection magic, as feared yesterday.
However, there was one thing he overlooked.
"You bastard. How do you fish like this?"
Initially, Jamie had no intention of turning Katarina and Draxar into undead.
It was a simple reason.
Because they were the ones baptized by Janice.
As soon as they were taken prisoner, it was confirmed what religion they believed in, and in particular, it turned out that Katarina had even received a surname.
Because of that, I gave up making it undead.
If I made it for nothing and Janice found out, everything would be in vain.
Instead, the plan was to turn it into bait.
I needed something to fish for, since I was half convinced that Ferros was alive somewhere.
ruler. I'll have to look into your memories from now on.
The body does not remember with the head.
A corpse exists and remembers the past.
Jamie reached out to Katarina.
The moment black mana burrowed into the corpse, he cast a spell.
"Remember. Memories in death."
[Corpse Memory]
Katarina's corpse, the only body left, shuddered, and began to transmit memories of last night into Jamie's head.
After reading all the memories, Jamie laughed happily.
"Run hard, Peros. Let's run away harder."
That's why you'll have a taste for chasing!!
Jamie's new model disappeared with the purple light.
