Episode 116

Second Dragon Heart.

It even has the effect of raising not only magic power, but all stats by one level.

“Because I have lived a long time.”

Brea said that when a dragon is over 1,000 years old, it develops an additional heart that contains its own power, not mana.

Since Skadi was an ancient dragon who had lived through countless years, both hearts contained enormous power.

“Because I wanted you guys to survive.”

Brea pushed my hand holding the dragon heart away and turned around.

“go back.”

“Hey, this… … .”

“Take that too. It will come in handy someday.”

The other heart that Euril was holding, the snow of winter, also came into hand as planned.

“I… … Cut it off.”

wheein!

Brea, who changed into a fox with the blizzard, curled up and lay down on the bedside of the huge dragon.

The fox, which had closed its eyes, did not move any more.

“Then let’s go.”

“yes.”

Leaving Brea behind.

Euril and I started walking slowly southwest along the stream that was beginning to melt.

When I came out of the cave exit on the other side, it was just in the middle of a snowstorm, so I had to stay inside for another day.

“Will Obama believe this story?”

“Anyway, the river will melt, well.”

When spring comes after winter, the Pigtail River melts.

White jade and permafrost farther north than that are said to start melting after at least 100 years, so there is no need to expand the front line right away.

“And what if you don’t believe me? If we knew each other, that would be enough.”

“Yes.”

After the blizzard stopped, they started moving along the river.

The road down the river was much longer. Even if there is a snowstorm on the way, there is no place to rest, so it cannot be used as a way to come.

But when I returned, the story was different. It’s because it’s all a gentle downhill.

“Can I make it like this?”

“It’s good.”

I made a sled out of ice.

Originally, I had to sharpen and trim things that were a little sloppy with Auril’s ability, but now I didn’t have to touch them. Brea’s teaching seems to have helped.

“depart!”

Above the frozen river, the sled started running along the downhill. Faced with the cool wind, the sled continued to slide without stopping.

I was able to arrive at the village of hunters in the late afternoon.

Originally, I didn’t have to stop by, but Euril said he wanted to come.

“Am I seeing ghosts?”

“You are saying something rude.”

“no.”

In the middle of the yard, a large bearskin was laid out.

The tanned man, still topless, blinked his eyes.

“You came back alive?”

I head to the house across the street this time, but I walk a little more cautiously than before.

The reason was immediately clear.

“Heather!”

“Why are you calling me!”

“The princess has returned.”

It seemed that Heather, who had returned, had recently uncovered Euril’s identity. It won’t matter since it will be Auril’s achievement anyway.

With the same clattering sound, this time taking a little longer, a dressed Heather stormed out.

“Sah, to come back alive… … .”

“Hey, nice to meet you.”

Passing by me, who greeted me warmly, Heather walked over to Euril, who was standing in the back. and then flop.

got down on his knees

“I… … .”

“You were a knight in the palace, right?”

Heather nodded with difficulty at Auril’s question.

“It must have been my knight.”

“How can I… … .”

“I remembered your face. You feel more wrinkles than back then.”

“Yes.”

Then Heather put her head on the ground. A thump, I could hear it.

“I have committed a mortal sin.”

“What sin?”

“I stole the property of the royal palace.”

“And.”

“I abandoned the name of a knight and dared to betray the princess and His Majesty the King and run away.”

“And.”

“I swore to protect the princess until the day I die, but I couldn’t keep it. I can’t be forgiven, so I deserve to die right here.”

Euril took off her hat and walked slowly, drawing the sword from Heather’s side.

There was no need to worry.

“Isn’t there a law telling one person not to do it twice?”

Auril quietly placed the back of the drawn sword on Heather’s left shoulder.

It was a knight inauguration ceremony.

“Princess… … ?”

“I have committed a crime, so I must be punished.”

“However.”

“Herald Dusk. You are my knight from now on. Keep your head up.”

Heather raised her head.

It was a name long abandoned.

“Come back. It is an order.”

After putting the drawn sword back into the scabbard, Euril said with a smile.

Heather, the Herald shouted, putting his head back on the ground.

“I take orders!”

“There will be work here, so please come back when it is finished. There are plenty of seats.”

Since we have to go down to the city before sunset, I went straight out of town with Euril.

Even after Auril withdrew, Heather remained on her knees for a long time.

“Are you okay? Even if you bring that guy back.”

“He talked to me often.”

Euril, who was young and unable to properly control her powers, had to live alone in an isolated space.

Since Kelzian, who had inherited the throne, was busy at the time, the person who usually talked to young Euril was none other than Harold.

“And there are many knights other than Herald who have returned after running away.”

When Mashu fell into a ricochet.

It is said that even after running away from the royal family, there were not one or two knights who felt guilty and returned to the royal family to kneel in front of Keljian.

I think it’s worth living for a little bit now, so I wonder if it’s a shame to come back.

As Arrill said, the royal family’s manpower shortage was at a serious level right now, so it wasn’t a bad idea to bring in a Harald with experience.

“You’re back already.”

“I know.”

“First, let’s eat.”

After returning to the city, I finished a proper meal after a long time.

After renting a carriage to go back, finding a driver, and finding a place to stay, I was finally able to lie down on a comfortable bed. Aurilman, of course.

“You don’t have to do it today.”

“it’s okay. Tomorrow will be the last.”

Before going to sleep, I sat by the bedside and stroked Auril’s hair.

“Interesting.”

“What?”

“Going that far. I thought it would be very scary.”

It is white jade, one of the four bans.

No matter how much Euril is immune to the cold, I am afraid of the white jade with only pure white snow stretching far away.

With endless meadows and no road to go, I should have worried first.

“I wasn’t scared at all. Except when you pass out.”

“I am similar.”

“Now that I think about it, I think it might have been because of this.”

In the white jade, in the meadow.

Before you go to sleep, you might think it’s natural since you’ve done it without exception. Auril thanked me.

“It was fun.”

“Let’s go play again next time.”

“… … Not in a dangerous place.”

“sure.”

I am also deeply moved that they returned safely. Is that all?

Euril fell asleep quickly, probably from exhaustion, and I quietly took out the dragon heart from my chest.

‘Two… … .’

First of all, you need to focus on the most important magic power.

If one person eats two, even a person who was level 8 will immediately become level 10, the highest level of magic in the world.

If two 9th level people each eat one, there are two 10th level people. Of course, even at level 9, it would be difficult to find a level that only court mages could achieve.

In any case, considering the difficulty of the upcoming episodes, it’s a good idea to write at least one of the two.

Schoolhouses, lasers, 300 refugees.

There are many things I don’t want to lose.

I checked my status for the first time in a long time. Quite a few things have changed.

[STATUS]

“Yeah.”

It is a touching growth that brings tears to my eyes. But why is magic still at level 4? That fairy also ended up sticking to it.

In the tenth episode, one more special ability point is given, and finally, you can’t get any more ability points.

What I thought about for a moment was the option of eating both of them.

If you consume all the remaining points and eat two dragon hearts, you are at level 9, and you are at level 10 with the magical power you can get from the artifact, Typhoon’s Devotion Ring.

At that point, you will definitely be able to equip yourself with power comparable to that of the main character in the original work.

Just one thing I’m worried about.

‘I only have one body.’

No matter how much magic power is level 10, there is a limit to the power of one person in the end.

If you look closely at the court mages, all of them are level 9 or higher. But even with Derek, wasn’t the northern wall in danger?

Such crises occur simultaneously in the thirteenth and fourteenth episodes. Divide personnel into roles.

Moreover, considering the end, it becomes even more problematic.

‘… … Does it make sense?’

When dealing with Ainim in the 15th episode, the main character’s magical power was level 10.

Nevertheless, the effect of all magic is halved against children. As a fixed setting, it means that even 10 levels are not the same 10 levels.

The main characters, including the main character, have to take the time, and it is Auril who gives the final blow.

However, if you give Euril a dragon heart, it is difficult for Euril to stay in Mashu and help the episode for the time being.

Above all, my magic has no distinct advantages. It is true that the imagination theory is a suitable theory for me.

My magic is not as strong as Ainim’s, not as fast as Freed’s, and not as sophisticated as Baeller’s. If it’s a little more creative, that’s a title that will soon be taken away by Lamu.

‘… … okay.’

draw conclusions soon

You can’t just follow the story forever. I checked the already ruined episodes several times.

The best move that is likely to reverse the situation. For Rocktrin, it’s a high-probability gamble.

I tucked the dragon heart into my bosom and laid down on the bed.

The next afternoon, after arriving at the palace, the script came to mind.

[EPISODE CLEAR!]

X. never ending winter

: Found and resolved the cause of the frozen Pigtail River.

When spring arrives, the river gradually begins to melt, so you may have to prepare for the swollen river. It will be a very pleasant worry for the inhabitants of northern Mashu.

Also, the heart, which no longer bleeds, must be stored well.

It will come in handy someday.

“Princess!”

“Have you been out here?”

“Are you all right? Are you not hurt anywhere?”

“Yeah, I’m fine.”

“Your Majesty is waiting for you.”

Before I even climbed the stairs, as soon as the front door opened, Shale jumped out. It was because the signal had been sent in advance through the dimensional fragments that they would arrive today.

Shale studied Auril’s dark complexion and spoke cautiously.

“You don’t have to be too discouraged.”

“yes?”

“It is enough that you returned safely. However, since the princess cleared the way this time, next time we will definitely send out an investigation team… … .”

“What are you talking about, Shale?”

Euril took out the snow of winter from her bosom.

“Everything has been resolved.”
