161 < Chapter 28. It won't be peaceful at all (1) >

Rainy night.

The moon must have been bright. I only know that I cannot bring down my light because I am covered by that cloud that is between the earth and the sky.

How many rainy nights are there that are invisible even on the moons that will always be bright? So it is certain that there will surely be a day when the rainy night feels so joyful.

Assuming, of course, the place you're sleeping right now is not outdoors.

I would have been happy if it weren't for the outdoors. It was obvious that he was looking out the window, soaking wet as he could not stand the susceptibility to the rain, holding a glass of whatever was best known as Himollica or Cairis.

Then he would look at the falling rain and recall one bitter memory of the magic of another attribute that had been struck earlier.

- The house burned down then must have left no trace. Ha. Time is a fool.

This whole thing.

"I never thought of quitting."

I don't know if it was for spring or summer, but it kept raining.

But I didn't have a window to wet my eyes and a roof to hear the rain fall. Even the fact that this place was not a warm room was frustrating, but most of all, there was no alcohol in my hands. That was the most frustrating.

"Oh, I want a drink."

So Uriah complained a little by bringing out a word so faithful to his instincts.

- Tadak, tadak.

as if the answer had been given.

A quiet blaze of campfire scatters into the air and fades away. Like, don't even dream about hopeless things. That's why Euria followed the place where the light disappeared with her eyes filled with even greater frustration.

Immediately, Uriah's gaze was toward the distant sky.

"It's been hard on me, too."

It was the same word.

It's Arsenal, who's accompanying me, and I'm on my way because of Calian's orders, but not Uriah. Even Kalian doesn't know why Uriah's here. So, I came here secretly to make excuses for others, just because Eyria suffered for herself.

"I'm glad you know."

Someone spoke back to Uriah. Of course, it was Arsen.

"Don't be so grumpy because some people don't have to live like this."

He made an ice screen that wouldn't melt and put it on the roof. He magically dried the wet land and firewood in the rain and ignited a flame that wouldn't go out and put it on the firewood.

Arsenal, who is generously encouraged to do all this, is alone. So there's a lot of complaints.

"What, and I'll do it?"

Uriah, who listened to Arsen, said:

I'm older than you, I'm stronger than you, and I'm more emotional than you. Why would I do that? I'm busy watching the rain.

"By the way, I don't know if they eat in this rain."

Uriah continues to follow the sparks that erupt from the campfire. After extending Mana to nearby, you confirm that Chase's plowshares are still following.

"Are you trying to feed me?"

"Coward."

"Yes, I'm back."

I don't have time to say anything.

After sending forty people along the road to the afterlife, he looked at Uriah, who was worried because he didn't fit in, and asked.

"You really don't know why they're following you."

"I don't know."

After answering that, Uriah opened her mouth with a little anger.

"Just one more day and we'll catch them all."

I noticed the birds were catching up and switched routes and delayed my schedule as they came along. Thanks to you, I can't drink on a rainy day. So you're gonna be pissed.

After all the hard work he didn't buy, Arsen turned the Boar Meat upside down and cooked it. Just in case I wanted to catch a blue-haired wizard instead of a bird.

Because Euria says meat tastes the best, it's still full of muscle, but even chunks of meat didn't ripen. Even saying that the meat was as tasty as the cooker's care, I gave up what I was about to learn by magic.

So, Arsen, who was watching the meat slowly ripen with his blank eyes, asked a different question to change the topic.

"You really don't have to tell the prince, by the way. Why are you going now?"

"You're in danger, so you might as well tell me nicely to fuck off."

Of course, Calian, who respects etiquette, never said that. I'm just saying that's what it means.

Anyway, Euria was investigating the Black Stone that Kalian had. Then one of the scholars saw a record claiming that he could make a habit, and was on his way to the lab where he was last known to live.

Then I met the group that attacked Kalian. So I killed them all. After that, it was the birds of Chase, not the birds that made fun of them. That's why Uriah was thinking about killing them, too.

"The prince of Cecritia is investigating the same thing."

"Meat burns."

I wasn't trying to change the horses, I was really riding.

While we were having this serious conversation, Uriah only worried about the meat. Reflective, but not distracted. What a talented wizard you are.

Arsen hurriedly turns to look at Euria, his meat divided into exactly eighteen pieces with his heart when he caught the Boar.

"It could be. But it's weird. I don't know why that prince cares so much about our prince. If Prince Charming ascends to the throne, he may be trying to help, but he doesn't seem to be helping."

Generally, when you want to get paid and help, you have to say, 'I've done this much, so you should do it later.' But Chase didn't have that. That's why Uriah thought it was strange.

"Just mind your own business. Even Earl Manasil takes that for granted."

"The commander can do that."

Arsen nods loudly and replies.

"Captain Manasil is the one who thinks that everything that lives and breathes in this world deserves your help. So you can. But the prince is not like that."

He can't possibly know Chase's help.

Besides, it's Calian who doesn't take anything for free. However, Chase's help was well received on Juju Island.

"If such a prince had just received help, it would mean he was trustworthy. That's what I think. You don't need my help. Leave it alone."

Thinking back to Chase in front of the Arfia Palace, Arsenal once again searches for meat.

The curious wizard says: There must be a reason. Just trust me.

The day of the second fight with them. After sending Allan to Chase and sending Knight Tailan to Calian, Uriah mutters, "I see."

"By the way, it's dangerous for the Chairman of the Association to go alone."

Said it was the Swordsmanship close to the Swordmaster who did so much harm to Kalian. This indicates that Calian was defeated even though the opposing Pokémon was not a Sodmaster. If even one of the people that Uriah is chasing now had that ability, Uriah would not be safe either.

"That's why I'm taking you."

Arsenal fought Kalian quite a few times, though. Moreover, those who had dealt with it were mostly swordsmen. So it was often better for Arsen to fight a swift and proper swordsmanship knight.

Arsen replied with a frustrated voice, saying that he had already thought of taking himself to the destination.

"I have work to do."

"Yeah. I'm going there with you. I'll help you, kid. You can help me."

Arsen sighs deeply as he looks at the light of the white walker who looks small from afar.

"There's work to be done in the White March, but there's work to be done in Balkan. They must be doing things their own way.It's not like Deputy General Plants, your brother, is here to help me. Besides, there are a lot of wizards playing in the capital."

When Uriah heard that, she smiled softly instead of being angry. Then, Arsen uttered a word he could never refuse.

"The movement magic is almost complete. Help me, and I'll give you a ride."

I can't believe you're trying to seduce me with some kind of magic move.

I've never used the Movement Wizard before, but it's so easy to see people.

He thought, placing a plate of cooked meat in front of Eyria, he said.

"Yes, Chairman. Trust me."

Oh, man.

Wizards.

* * *

Callian always did.

I had never asked why, but I had already noticed it long ago. The day Callian takes Bern out, he puts the sword in. Plants knew it was always like that.

"Where are you going?"

"Wilhelm."

So Plants went up all the stairs and replied to Kalian, who asked him not to leave the Haycia Palace.

It was because I had to take care of another deputy commander who seemed to have left me half a turn, and because I thought I'd come back to Chermill in that dark room again.

When we're done with that, let's go to the training ground and hold Kiri.

Somehow, I was thinking that it would be good to receive the sword that is equal to life today.

"Come with me, Wilhelm Coffin. To the training ground."

I was talking about a duel.

Seeing what I was thinking, I heard the answer as if it was nothing.

"The king will be in Chermill by now. I heard you were coming. I'm sorry to run into you, but I'm a little tired."

Of course I heard Remain is coming, but I also heard about Plants. I just didn't care because I said I was coming to meet Randall.

"You said you were tired. Let's fight."

I'm too tired to face Le Maine, so I don't think it's a good idea to challenge her. I doubt he even knows how to lie.

Calian smiles again, saying, "Is that so?"

"Actually, I have nowhere else to go. I'm worried about everyone going anywhere like this."

When you go to Jan, Jan worries, and when you go to Alan, Alan worries. I can't even go to the woods because I'm worried about Raven.

I was saying that I was full.

Who carries a white cat and only wears black robes with confidence. After going in and out of the water, Khoksanni knows that his spell will change in an instant.

So that was the second excuse to shy around the horse. I'm worried about Plants in this palace full of people to worry about.

"· · · · · · How broad-minded my brother is."

"Now you know that. I thought you were as smart as you are fast."

"Bark, again."

I say one word and then another drink. Looking at the person who was watching the axis of time a moment ago.

How, how, how.

"· · · · · · · · · · · Ha."

Plants takes a short sigh, with nothing more to say.

"Whatever."

Finally, Calian nods and replies as he asks. Today, I thought I might really die by my brother's hand, but I wanted to see what I could do.

Plants was the one who uncovered what he was trying to hide, but Calian was the one who really cared. And Plants knows that, so he has to endure being annoyed.

With a smile on his face, Calian turns back and sets foot outside the Hessia Palace.

And then it stopped again.

That's why I felt something in the Sispanian room that I just walked out of. Turning to you, Plants has a blank expression on his face. So were the wizards who guarded their surroundings.

Only Kalian felt an energy that no one else knew about.

Calian looks around with sharpened eyes and opens his mouth to Plants. A cautious voice flows out more than ever.

"I'm sorry. You'll have to go first."

"Why."

"I was going to meet you and you came. I think he's calling me."

When she realized something she didn't know, she said to Plants, without hiding any more.

"The master of Heysia."

Plants' eyes narrowed and Calian's mouth painted a dark arc.
