Chapter 1243

Episode 1243. You’re going to meet the god of dreams and fantasies?

Elio did not want to get deeply involved in the affairs of this world.

There are things that he has nothing to do with this world, but rather than that, he wanted to go back to his family as soon as possible.

It is said that time can go back to the point of longing, but it is because I missed my family so much.

As he was thinking of his family, he heard Duke Cillian Hale’s voice in his ears.

“But what about the South? Could it be that Count Lagoa is also interested in the Abyss?”

Duke Cillian Hale asked as if he were floating.

Count Elio Lagoa found the perforation castle, and then I thought it was like Abyss.

“Yes, that’s right. We are on our way to the Abyss.”

Elio, who had no reason to hide, did not deny it.

Anyway, even the Imperial Intelligence Service should have known that his destination was the Great Forest.

“Is the Count interested in artifacts too?”

“Not at all. I’m looking for the owner of the Abyss rather than an artifact.”

“The owner of Abyss? Are you talking about Ushas Undra? You said you would meet the god of dreams and illusions?”

“That’s right.”

“Heh heh heh! I didn’t know that the count had such romance. Ushas Undra, my God!”

“Is that romantic?”

“The wishes of the children of noble families are to meet Ushas Undra. Ushas Undra is said to make people’s dreams and fantasies come true. It’s not even that young people are embarrassed. By the way, do Count Lagoa, who has reached the ultimate level, still have a dream he wants to achieve?”

“My goal is to meet Ushas Undra itself.”

“You mean you’re not making a wish on Ushas Undra, but just going to meet him?”

“That’s right.”

“Since Countess Lagoa is going to the Abyss, can I ask you a favor?”

“What is it?”

“I’d appreciate it if you could find out how many artifacts from the Dark Ages are in the Southern Kingdom. If there are more than five, why do they only put five relics on the front line? How is it?”

“Isn’t this a simple request?”

Then Duke Cillian Hale laughed and said.

“That is true for ordinary people. I don’t think it’s difficult if it’s Count Lagoa’s ability.”

“sorry. That seems difficult. I’m more urgent to find Ushas Undra now. I can’t waste my time on other things.”

“Then what about doing this? You don’t have to do anything special to figure it out. If the count’s party happens to know about it on the way to the south, it will be informed at that time. How is it?”

Duke Cillian Hale did not give up easily.

From the point of view of conducting war, the steel golem was a huge variable, so I really wanted to know.

“...”

Elio couldn’t answer easily.

More than anything else, he did not want to get involved in the war between the Empire and the Kingdom.

“I know very well that Count Lagoa is unwilling to get involved in this war. I hope this war ends soon. Maybe the southern kingdom wants the empire to give up after leading the war with artifacts from the Dark Ages. But the Empire will never yield to the will of the Southern Kingdoms. Do you know that the Empire has a weapon against the relics of the Dark Ages?”

“Is there such a thing?”

“Yes. Fifty years ago during the Imperial War, the Mage Tower conceived of a destructive weapon to end the war. It’s called Excitium, and it’s a terrible magic bullet developed to kill the sword masters of the southern kingdom.”

“Excitium?”

“That’s right. I heard that the Crown Prince is turning his eyes to Excitium, which was discarded under the pretext of ‘fighting against the artifacts of the Sorcery Age’. Do you know what that means?”

“Are you saying that the Empire will eventually win the war against the southern kingdom?”

“That’s natural, and that’s the problem.”

“Is there a problem?”

“It takes decades of time and hundreds of gold of financial support to turn a single knight into a sword master. That’s why sword masters only come from prestigious families.”

“So what?”

“It costs less than 100 gold to produce one Excitium. With less than 100 gold, you can kill a sword master who has invested hundreds or even more. Imagine a world in which even ordinary people can kill sword masters if they know how to fire a magic gun.”

“her!”

A sigh escaped Elio’s mouth.

Was the magic bullet that he shot himself during the duel with Marquis Gosling Knauf also the excitium?

Recalling the events of that day made my back throb.

It wasn’t particularly surprising since he saw himself and the Corvo magic corps meet last night.

“Did you say Baron Solon?”

“yes!”

“Unlike the baron, my colleagues and I do not like to be in the spotlight. So call us adventurers from now on.”

“yes! Adventurer!”

“Go before the other adventurers arrive.”

Elio waved his hand as if to get out of hand.

Baron Howard Solon, who was about to leave, spoke cautiously.

“Well, by the way, can we call the three of you the same adventurer-sama?”

As the conversation got longer, Fabian, who was next to him, stepped out.

“This is Lord Lagoa, and the person next to him is Lord Omar and I can be called Lord Cloud.”

“It’s an honorable question, but what will happen to Extyrium when the war is over?”

“We will go through the recovery process for each unit. Considering the destructive power of weapons, we must manage them thoroughly.”

“There must be a lot of things lost or omitted in the process, right?”

“That’s why I’m against the mass production of Excitium. We don’t know what will happen once we send them to the frontline units.”

Even if you try to figure out and manage your inventory, the magic gun shooter will report that you shot a steel golem.

Under current wartime conditions, management of Excitium was virtually impossible.

Unlike Fabian, who asked if he had any questions, Count Larva Omar, a great nobleman of the Baylem Kingdom, spared his words.

It is because it is uncomfortable to talk with the head of the magic corps, known as the best power in the empire, in a situation where the future of the northern kingdom and the empire is unknown.

Duke Cillian Hale never asked Count Omar of Larva.

After the drinking party, Elio and the others returned to the tavern near the Stagecoach Association.

next day.

Elio and his friends were resting after breakfast, when a person from the Stagecoach Association came to inform them that the stagecoach was scheduled to depart in an hour.

and 1 hour later.

As Elio and his party entered the stagecoach waiting room, Baron Howard Solon and his party approached.

As Elio glanced over, Baron Howard Solon broke his back.

“Count! I respect you! It’s an honor to travel with you! I wish you all the best in the future!”

Elio’s expression as he looked at him was grave.

It wasn’t particularly surprising since he saw himself and the Corvo magic corps meet last night.

“Did you say Baron Solon?”

“yes!”

“Unlike the baron, my colleagues and I do not like to be in the spotlight. So call us adventurers from now on.”

“yes! Adventurer!”

“Go before the other adventurers arrive.”

Elio waved his hand as if to get out of hand.

Baron Howard Solon, who was about to leave, spoke cautiously.

“Well, by the way, can we call the three of you the same adventurer-sama?”

As the conversation got longer, Fabian, who was next to him, stepped out.

“This is Lord Lagoa, and the person next to him is Lord Omar and I can be called Lord Cloud.”

Then, Baron Howard Solon reached out to Fabian and asked for a handshake.

“As you already know, I am Baron Howard Solon. I will leave it up to you.”

“I am Baron Fabian Cloud. What are you asking me to do? Anyway, the coachman of the Stagecoach Transport Association will drive the wagon well.”

Fabian pretended not to understand and drew a line.

The opponent blatantly pushed back, but Baron Howard Solon did not back down.

“I know you are going to Abyss. Don’t they say two heads are better than one? We are lacking, but it will be better than nothing. Please take me with you while we go to the Abyss.”

The eyes of Baron Howard Solon and his party all turned to Count Elio Lagoa.

Elio nodded to Fabian.

It wasn’t because they needed help, but because they needed to be accepted for their safety. It’s because the people of the Southern Kingdom call Great Forest ‘tropical Tamion’.

Still, I didn’t want to see the spirit practitioner I met for the first time and the magic swordsman expelled from my family die in a guesthouse, perhaps because I felt attached to traveling together.
