315 < Chapter 56. Serpent's Grave (4) >

Clouds gathered in the clear black sky.

The silent black sky flashes bright.

Too sudden and powerful lightning to be seen as a natural phenomenon. It was definitely the power of Euria.

- Hina and Kyrie have arrived at the Grand Chamber with a wizard named Rachel Grace. Prince Plants is staying at the annex.

If you say or do anything wrong here, you may end up being branded as a traitor for the rest of your life in the dungeon. Because of this, Chase was unable to convey Kyrie's explanation as it is, but instead only shared some of the most important content. Then, instead of telling her more details, she handed over the ring that was connected to Kiri to Calian.

"You thought I was just going to get beat up."

Devilan's words flowed towards Chase afterwards.

And the life of Plants.

That should be enough to make you realize what's happening. Devil makes another snake-like move, and Plants finds out. I sent Hina to the mansion. There was a fight in the mansion.

That's how noticeable the wizard of Cairis was, who shouldn't be involved with what happened here, suggests that something like that must have exploded.

- Teacher, please come right away. To the Mansion of Earl Lynn.

- Aye, sir.

So I called Alan, who said he was going to meet another seven-circle wizard, right away.

"How dare you."

I laughed.

It was always quiet.

Thanks to this, the eyes of those who heard Prince Cairis' words were wide open.

I didn't care.

"Did you touch my people? Tie my feet here, in front of me, you. How dare you."

Not the calculating, pretending Prince Kalian. Not the Swordmaster Khalian, who distinguishes power from endurance.

Kalian is furious.

- Whoo-hoo!

A deteriorating error appeared on the tip of my hand, when I heard nothing. I hold in my hand a long, sharp sword that looks like it's burning red. With it in hand, Kalian is covered. I walked forward.

"Prince Kalian. Stop."

Devilan's knights march in unison to block Kalian's advance. Callian didn't care, either. He raised his sword in his hand and threw it away. It's like it's a dagger or a memorizer.

- Yuck!

The day of error, which took the shape of a long, long sword, flew headlong toward Devil Lane. Chase watches, the knights do nothing, and Tailan remains motionless. And Devilan is looking at Callian.

Kalyan's sword does not stop.

You fly straight for Devil's Heart. The black, trembling through Devil's heart.

The royal gate pillar, right behind the Devil. I went deep in the middle of it.

People stopped breathing.

Devilan sighs slowly and exhales as he looks at Calian. I didn't look down at my body as if I'd just been pierced by Calian's sword. You still keep your eyes peeled from Kalian's red eyes.

Because I know better than anyone that Callian is not going to kill himself here.

A Kalian sword that pierced the Devil's heart but didn't actually cut itself because it had been transformed into an invisible energy just moments before passing through his body. The sword, which had been completely embedded in the pillar of the palace, exudes a fierce red aura, leaving only its handle.

As proof that you could have killed as many people as you wanted, but you let them live.

"Lord Castrin."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty is attacking the Grand Chamber and the Annex."

Chase's voice breaks.

"As you know, there is my mother, the love of Rin, and Prince Plants' bride, Bern, and Prince Plants, alone in the Annex."

A word that seems to come out to listen.

You make the sound of people breathing.

Earl Lazian Lynn's gaze settles on Chase.

"Go to the Marquis right now, help Lord Lynn and rescue everyone and get them to the palace safely."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Tailan, who gave the sleeping child to the one standing beside him, escapes the crowd. Then he jumps on the horse and runs toward the Lazian mansion.

It was treason that Chase's knights aided those who were confronting the Knights of Devlan. Now Chase puts treason in his mouth. But no one shook.

Instead, Devil looks a little, a little confused. You didn't think that Plants would be alone in the annex, that there would be a Hina in the Lazian mansion.

- Jubbuck.

Kalian moves his feet.

"Once a month. Once a week, at times."

I walked through my memories.

You walk towards Devil Lane, recalling all the old memories of vomiting that you don't want to think about again.

"After the whole noble family disappeared and was burned down, there was only one crazy king who didn't recognize my family. How can a man be so cruel? I can see what you did to my brother and my people today. All of that was true, obviously."

- Jubbuck, Jubbuck.

"Cairys will never go quietly about this. And I am."

I took another step toward Devil Lane through the facts of today's sights and the knights of the king who had been forced to do nothing by the darker and darker life I had never experienced. You walk to the sound of Devil's Breath.

Kalian smiles long and long at Devlan. Then you take your head close to Devil's ear. You move your red lips quietly without wearing any silent silence.

"Every day, I'm going to come visit you. Until you die."

A delicate aesthetic that is impeccable everywhere has been whispered to me as a dream.

"I'll make you regret touching my people and let you die. Wherever you are, where you breathe, where you don't breathe. I'll make you the tomb of the snake where you belong."

The Ghost of Devil has warned you.

"· · · · · · · Me."

Devil clenches his fist without even knowing it. He looks back at the knights who seem to have given up trying to protect his king and at those who are still looking at him.

Suddenly, Kalian disappears, nowhere to be seen.

A cool energy appeared in my heart after the red error had passed.

It's like you're faced with a ghost.

* * *

You see a round smile in Adelia's long eyes.

"Wow. Alan Manasil is here. I was surprised to hear from you for a minute."

Hina thinks that it resembles those of the playful children who saw Adelia.

"You're up in eight circles, by the way."

Adelia smiles maliciously, standing so far away. As soon as he got here, he disabled all of his attacks at once.

A friendly handover gives Alan a small nod and Adelia opens her mouth again.

"Is that why you came to get me, to show off your ascension?"

"What are you going to do with the old man? I came here to mess with my boys."

"Ah · · · · · · · · You're talking too much."

The wizard who becomes a 7 circle returns to the age that is best suited to implement his magic. Most people refer to it as the reversal of the wizard's age in their early 20s. The ageing of wizards who go that far back is slower than that of ordinary people. Just as Alan had been in his mid-20s until recently, when he arrived in Libern and became a seventh circle and regressed to his 23rd body.

So Adelia, who looks like she's in her mid-30s, is much older than Allen. Nevertheless, Adelia's words and actions were quite far from the relationship. If you think about Arsenal or Balkans, how many wizards in the world would live at the right age, but they did.

"Don't listen to it, we haven't even started. By the way, what did the man who was stuck in his skull studying come into the world for?"

"I'm bored."

Adelia smiles at Allen's question and replies as if it was nothing.

Adelia was still standing on the post of the Marquis's Gate. If you feel uncomfortable speaking to her in that state, Adelia jumps lightly in front of Alan. He smiled again, looking at the hina behind Alan's back.

"But about that half-elf. For me earlier."

- Shit!

Adelia's words don't carry on.

Alan bounces his hand, and at the same time the two wizards standing in the middle of the Marquis disappear.

Maybe the forest where Alan and Calian fought, emptied out all his magical powers, had been completely destroyed. I don't know about Adelia, but Alan didn't want to get rid of Cecreta.

For a short while, those who faced an enormous amount of teeth and quickly got out faced with complex faces. No one stood there without taking a break.

Hina bows quietly.

I clenched my fist. And he picked up what was in it and put it in his hand.

A dull silver ring.

Alan gave it to me a moment ago. It was a way to communicate with Calian instead of the broken bracelet that Adelia broke.

Arianne, who saw it, approached and took her hand.

It was because I knew Hina was a healer and assumed she wouldn't be able to handle magic.

Soon, a faint light appeared on the ring.

- Prince Kalian.

However, there was no answer to the call.

I couldn't figure out what she was doing, but Hina didn't call any more and waited for Callian. And a long time later, the answer was given.

- Hina.

- Are you okay? - Yeah.

- I don't know. How about you?

- The white-haired Wizard is here, and the Marquis Manasil is here. Marquis Manasil is gone, just like the Wizard.

- Yeah. Hina, thank God. That must have been hard.

Calian's voice, which has been sinking ever since. I feel deep relief in the middle.

- I didn't suffer. It's okay. It's okay.

- Yes, I am.

- Plants, me too.

After a moment of silence, you hear a slightly calmer voice.

I'm moving him into the annex and watching him.

- There was a memory with anesthesia on it.

- I think that's why. And there's a cut on the right shoulder.

Hina looks surprised and asks.

- Are you hurt bad?

- · · · · · · · Through. It's not a wound that won't heal. He's healing. He's bleeding. Somewhere else seems fine.

- I'll take a look around when I get back. Don't worry too much. Count Manasil and I will be fine.

- Yes, sir.

Arianne was the first one to make a move while the conversation lasted for a short time. I checked to see if there were any injured people in the mansion. You can see Euria from a distance, blindfolded on the rooftop, without being distracted by the surrounding boundaries. I don't see Arsen escorting Louise. It was dangerous to come out, so I would stay in the room and protect Louise.

That was a long time ago.

When the night of tranquility was deep, but no one could rest.

Another person who doesn't have to endure it.

Tailan arrives.

You hear a long, long scream outside the barn.

* * *

Deep forest.

A small town.

The safest place where the map of Cecretia can remain unchanged, even if it is destroyed without damaging the forest. Everyone who has lived here for a while has fled the body. So no one lives there anymore.

- Kuguaguava light!

Bridget Forest.

In the middle of it, the town that was protected by the Elves was shaken. The town was literally shaken. The grass blooms on the hills, shaking, and dust falls from the ceilings of the small houses.

Afterwards, the whirlwinds of fire with the magnitude of the spire of the royal palace of Cecritia surge through the earth. It squirms as if it were alive, and reaches for Allen.

Immediately before the fiery flames hit Alan, Alan's hands move as he watches it with dim eyes.

The forest atmosphere has stopped and all the oxygen around the pillar has disappeared. The pillar that had spread in an instant faded into thin air and lost its form.

It made Flame Storm of the Seven Circles disappear with a single gesture. Alan Manasil.

"Indeed."

As expected, Adelia, standing at a distance, nods. Immediately thereafter, a surge of enormous magical power felt from all sides of Alan.

- Wheeing.

- Saaaa!

The wind is rising.

The whirlpool of wind from the sky and the whirlpool rising from the earth narrowed the distance in an instant. And then I went straight for Alan.

Alan hides himself. And it appears right behind where Adelia was standing. At the same time, Adelia disappears as if she were erased, and she emerges from where Alan was just now. I switched places with Adelia.

You smile admirably at Adelia's mouth.

- Kuaaaa!

The earth echoes. It feels as if Allen's feet are slipping away, and the floor cracks and splits apart. Above that, a whirlpool the size of Adelia's house just passed through Adelia and reached Allan. At the same time, several pillars of fire rise from the ground, spreading their branches like vines, grabbing Alan's ankle.

- Shit!

A cheerful voice echoes from Alan's hands.

The earthquake created by the Wizard stopped. As the earth separated from each other, the earth moved again and found its original shape. Alan reaches back for Adelia after a forced earthquake.

- Kugu!

- Kuaang!

The ground beneath Adelia begins to crumble, creating enormous dust particles. And it falls down towards the bottom, where it cannot be seen. Adelia's body disappears from where she lost it, and then reappears from another place. Then, this time, the floor collapsed.

The lava bubbling far underground, as if awaiting Adelia's fall, gives out a red jawline. Adelia reappears elsewhere, momentarily stepping on the falling rock. And there it was, "Kuang!" Kuang! Kuang! Boom!

The stars fell from the sky.

Every piece of falling star, forcibly pulled to the ground, gives a deep whip on the ground. Adelia smiles slightly, not knowing that the shield is useless, and warps back to the distance. You then stretch out your arms to Alan.

- Shhh!

The wind whirls. Sharp stones, ice sculptures, and pillars of fire blend into it. I can feel it getting heavier under Alan's feet. You tie Alan up by moving the gravity around him.

Five kinds of magic all at once.

It was not possible because it was just seven circles.

I didn't tell Hina the truth, but I could tell. A soft smile was drawn on Alan's mouth.

"It wasn't worth it."

Somehow I'm too relaxed with eight circles ahead.

Alan raises his hand. The force of gravity that was tying its arms was already forced back a long time ago.

Soon, Alan opened his mouth to cast a short spell.

- It's noisy.

Arm up, arm up, arm up.

A black butterfly flies quietly and sits at the tip of Alan's hand.
