Chapter 41: The Dizzy Situation (4)
The capital, Fibre, was not completely devoid of people like the magic world.
However, it was far from the usual peaceful sight.
Because of the gray-white barrier, the entire city is dark as if covered with dark clouds.
Armed soldiers are also on the alert as they wander the city and stand vigilant.
Inside the building, I could feel the presence of people hiding, holding their breath.
"Who are you?"
Just then, one of the soldiers spotted Jamie and shouted in a sharp voice.
The soldiers around them also quickly surrounded Jamie with their spears in front.
Like the soldiers guarding the capital, they moved quickly, and there were almost no gaps in sight.
The man who appeared to be the captain drew his sword and walked forward.
"How did you get in?"
He pressed someone so deeply that his face could not be seen, but his eyes inside were very bloody.
He looked like someone who hadn't slept well for a few days.
It was the same with the other soldiers.
Jamie took out an identity card that symbolized the elder in the magical world in the subspace.
"This is Jamie Welton, the Third Elder of the Magic World."
He glanced at his identity card, then immediately opened his eyes, adjusted his posture and saluted.
"Captain of the Capital Defense Guard Corps, Commander Carl Smith, sees the 3rd Elder!"
The elder of the magic world was a position that could lead to a corps-level command in the Kingdom Army.
In fact, it was also the position in charge of eight magical corps.
Even though their affiliations were different, to Carl Smith, Jamie was a superior position.
When Carl Smith secured Jamie's identity, the soldiers withdrew their weapons.
Jamie asked him briefly about the situation in the capital.
"What happened? Is your Majesty okay?"
"We have heard the news of the Elder. First of all, in a nutshell... The beginning was when an apostle of the Pyro Church was attacked. As a result, the Apostle lost consciousness, and several denominations moved simultaneously, including the Zenith Church, while the North was in chaos. It's like weaving."
terror?
Yes. I'm at the end, so I don't know the details. You'd better go inside and listen. Your Majesty is fortunately safe."
okay. you've worked hard.
Jamie patted Carl's shoulder, gave a brief greeting to the other soldiers, and then headed back to the Skadium.
It got complicated in my mind along the way.
Ricky got hit
After all, an apostle of the Pyro Church.
'how?'
No matter how much he escaped from the realm of the goddess, Ricky had enough power to subdue Kryon at once.
Also, the divine power of the apostle makes him unable to die even if he wants to die.
Still, he became unconscious.
In addition, several denominations, including the Zenith Church, attacked the North together.
One of them was the Nihmu Church.
'Why is the Church of Nihmu... .'
According to the Pyro in the past, it was the beauty goddess Lily and the dragon god Brahman that allied with Zenith.
I've heard that you don't have a good relationship with other gods.
What happened in heaven?
'After talking to King Friedmoor, I'll have to talk to the Pyro in person.'
I haven't spoken to her in over 5 years.
I didn't feel the need to talk.
She was also a member of the 12 gods, and although she is said to be isolated, her perception of her as an enemy has not changed.
However, there was no one who could explain the current situation to her in detail other than her now.
Arriving at the Royal Skadium was instantaneous.
The Royal Palace Guards were guarding the skadium with a wide spread, and an unsightly human was right in front of them.
Since he was in charge of the defense of the capital, it was only natural.
"Stop!"
He shouted at Jamie.
Jamie stood still, looking at a troublesome bastard.
The king's spear Albert looked at Jamie as if he were looking at a stranger, and then opened his mouth with a stern look.
You Is that Jamie Welton?"
Five years ago, the arrogant and cheeky Spearmaster who had a brief conflict with Jamie.
I thought I'd be upset when we met later, but now it just felt cute.
Jamie had no intention of dealing with him, so he spoke only of purpose.
"I need to meet your Majesty."
what? How did I know if you were the real Jamie Welton or not?"
"Are you feeling it yourself? So shut up. I don't even have time to talk."
"I don't know where you have been for a month, but it looks like you ate a meal out of manners. Baby... ."
"Noisy bastard."
Jamie waved his hands as if dealing with a nuisance, and Albert's body flew to the side and crashed.
He must have been embarrassed by the sudden attack, but Albert immediately pulled out his spear and tried to counterattack.
bang-!!
But he couldn't get up and fell back to the ground.
He subdued the strong man in the master class with just one gesture.
The expression on the royal guard's expression became quite noticeable.
In the past, he would have enjoyed this gaze, but for Jamie now, even this was a pointless waste of time.
No one thought to stop it.
Jamie went straight into the stadium.
And not King Friedmoor on the throne-
Hi?
Princess Isabelle was sitting.
* * *
Jamie didn't say anything for about five seconds.
Why is the girl I'm seeing for the first time sitting there?
And, who is it easy to talk to?
At first it didn't seem like a big deal.
It looked something special, but the power she had was weaker than that of a girl her age.
In fact, his health didn't look very good either.
"You don't seem to remember who I am?"
"Do you know me?"
They must have met, but Jamie couldn't remember her face.
The last time I saw it was at the appointment of elders five years ago.
Five years have passed in such a state, and the girl has grown a lot.
"A lot of time has passed. Because children grow up quickly. As you.
Jamie didn't understand what she was saying.
I didn't even have time to understand.
Now, there was something more important than that.
"Where are you going, Your Majesty, is there a child like you sitting there?"
"You don't know anything either."
"Because I'm not in a situation where I can be considered a child right now. Even if it's a little rough, please understand."
Jamie approached her, intending to read the girl's memory.
do not worry. I have more room than I thought. The fire was put out immediately."
At that, Jamie stopped walking.
and asked.
what?
"My name is Isabelle. Isabel P Friedmoor. Would you like to be introduced?"
" Princess?
I couldn't remember the face, but I didn't even know the name.
Because he was the son of the great nobles and the elder of the magic world.
Of course, he knew the princess's name.
Jamie could only remember her face.
It was quite different from back then, so I didn't notice it at all.
It was a big thing I didn't even think about noticing.
"What happened?"
"Aren't you as comfortable as you were back then?"
"I'm sorry, but I don't have time to talk to you. The magical world has already been completely smitten by the cult of nihilism. If you're sitting there, I'm sure you're aware of this.
"Of course I know. But like I said, you don't have to be in a hurry now that you have more time than you think. Also, Heath is still safe. The Countess and her sister took refuge in a safe place. The same goes for the young people there."
As the princess' mouth spoke of Heis' safety, Jamie breathed a sigh of relief involuntarily.
Still, I was worried because I hadn't heard from another Jamie who had gone there.
"Have you calmed down a little? then sit down Do I need to prepare a separate chair for you?"
Jamie frowned at Isabelle who smiled kindly on the podium, and then magically made a chair and sat down.
also. Magic is amazing the more you see it."
"So, what exactly happened? Your Majesty, I would appreciate it if you could explain where you are going and where the princess is sitting."
"You don't have to be polite to the royal family. You are no longer weak enough to be entangled in such things."
She spoke as if she knew a lot, and the more she did, the more Jamie was able to get nervous.
'That girl, what is it?'
It's not my age. Even if it's possible because I'm a princess, I didn't like the way she said she knew a lot about herself.
"I am a people of Seldam. I can't stop treating the royal family.
"Thank you for saying that. Not yet You look fine."
"What do you mean?"
I do not know.
Is this supposed to be a pun on words?
As Jamie's expression darkened sharply, Isabel shook her head and added further explanation.
"Jamie. i mean He was born with a very strong foresight ability. To the extent of being able to see someone's future with certainty."
It would be more accurate to call it a retrospective rather than an explanation.
"I have confirmed the fate of many, and their fate is irreversible, and their end has always been the one I have seen."
" ."
"But, only one. It was impossible for even me to fully read your fate."
"You mean you don't know my fate?"
That's not right.
Isabelle, in a calm tone, began to tell about Jamie's fate she had seen.
"A lot of hardship, adversity, and growth. The path you walk is usually the path of a hero. Even if there are failures, there is always victory in the end. Again, you got what you wanted from the Demon Realm."
Jamie's eyes widened when 'Devil Realm' was mentioned.
I never thought she would have even read a specific place.
Isabel's words continued.
"Actually, I wondered if that was the end of your destiny that I had not read. Looking at it now, it seems that the time has not yet come."
"What lies at the end of that fate?"
"Nothing is certain. Like I said, I couldn't read that much. There is only one thing I can say for sure."
Isabelle said with a serious face.
"You will have to make a choice someday."
"What choice?"
"I don't know specifically, but depending on your choice, you ."
She took a deep breath and recounted the fate of Jamie she had read.
"You will stand in the dark."
I don't know what kind of darkness it is.
However, it is clear that when that time comes, Jamie will be a completely different being than she is now.
I don't know whether it's good or bad to be a completely different being.
Darkness is just an abstract expression, and there is no such thing as negative.
But just like humans have senses, Isabel didn't think that darkness would be positive.
darkness ."
Jamie mumbled it as if pondering.
I don't know how far I can trust Isabel's words, but only she knew the demon realm that no one knew.
it's not a scammer.
Jamie let out a short sigh and shook her head.
"Let's go think about it then."
"Still positive."
"Because you only get stress when you look at it negatively. It is more important to solve the problem right away than to know when it will happen. tell me everything you know Then I'll take care of everything.
If you are who you are now, you have nothing to fear.
