Chapter 159

From noblemtl.com

Juter, before anyone else, had chosen Varhen as the partner of an arranged marriage and presented a mantra to the king.

It was an arranged marriage that would happen someday, so he made his own decision and tried to get permission.

‘I’m not someone who is greedy for power.’

If you are a person who will be with you for the rest of your life, you must have the skills and support them.

It moves you along your goals, and sometimes you may end up giving away what you have.

Barhen was a knight who could do that enough, and would wield the sword only for himself.

‘He said he would give up his family for me.’

Of course, Barhen didn’t abandon the family because he wanted to.

If you have a relationship with the immediate royal family, you have no choice but to prioritize the royal family.

If he tried to take care of his family even a little, the royal family would be suspicious first.

‘… I have to take care of the Marquis of Reggiard.’

This was an action for Barhen and also to help the forces that would serve as his foundation.

In the first place, he did not want to force Barhen to sacrifice.

Although he is a knight who will protect himself at all times, he must not make his family and friends turn away from him.

However, if you openly reveal your meaning, the royal family and nobles will not be happy, so you should keep the balance in the right line.

‘I’m sure the Marquis of Reggieard will support me.’

Currently, the Marquis of Reggiard has become a family that no noble can surpass.

It was possible because the black knight, the arranged marriage with the Duke of Adelaira, and the arranged marriage with the royal family were premised.

The king might be conscious of this fact, but he wouldn’t be able to go against the flow.

‘I didn’t expect the black knight.’

For Juter, the black knight was an object of jealousy, but it was also unexpected luck.

He inadvertently developed a sense of jealousy because he had achieved what he had set out to have at a young age.

Even so, he would be his ally, so he had no choice but to count it as luck.

‘He uses the same magic sword as me… I can’t feel anything.’

Juter was intuitively aware of the reason why the black knight had no choice but to be strong.

A strange magic sword, something other than magical power, a strong will, and attachment to her fiancé.

The existence of the black knight must have been born when all of that was gathered.

‘I can’t be like the black knight.’

I was already convinced, but I didn’t want to give in to it.

I just thought it was because I wasn’t given a chance to prove my skills.

But if he didn’t accept reality, he would throw away another possibility.

‘I will become the king and prove my worth. in my own way… … .’

Cathedral of the Holy Order of Kinesien, Second Cardinal’s Office.

Enritte was looking through the files in a calm atmosphere.

There were many times when he was away, so the Pope reduced his work, but even that piled up and piled up and had to increase to quite a lot.

He could have left the Church of Kinesien on the grounds of Setinos Quasar’s activities, but he had to hold the title of cardinal in order to mobilize the Paladins at the right time.

‘Cardinal Prandike is still doing well.’

Raina, who had taken an oath of martyrdom the other day, had been carrying out her duties at the Cathedral smoothly.

He seemed happy no matter what he was doing, and he tried to act humble even in front of the paladins of lower ranks.

Perhaps because of that, he had a good reputation among the cardinals, and even the older paladins did not treat Rina rudely.

If you adapt well to this extent, wouldn’t it be possible to see the martyrdom oath as a wrong choice?

‘The king quietly passed over… Is it just a matter of getting together now?’

Enrite puts ink on the tip of her pen and writes her signature at the bottom of the document.

Shion came up with the opinion that the three great demon kings had been wiped out, and added that he had dealt a fatal blow to the demon god.

The four major disasters would be busy fighting among themselves, so for the time being, they wouldn’t be approaching the Alain Kingdom.

‘Everything is set up. Even if you fight them, you won’t be defeated. But… … .’

Enrite tilts the pen holder, then raises it again.

No matter what you do, it can’t always work out.

Occasionally, you will have an unexpected accident, and if you do not overcome it, you will suffer enormous damage.

I couldn’t guarantee that an incident like King Narak would not happen again.

‘The slime dragon has such power.’

If Shion went as expected, the Slime Dragon would have gotten stronger after eating the Chimera Dragon.

It will be the most threatening of the 4 catastrophes, and even the Bone Dragon can be eaten.

After that, wouldn’t it remain as the only one of the four major disasters and overcome even the Demon God?

‘If only the four major disasters are eliminated, it will end.’

The long-awaited time was approaching.

Shion Regard was trying to accomplish what he, Lesia, and that human could not do.

If all the magic sword users and Setinos Quasar joined forces, they would surely be able to stand against the four major disasters.

‘You can win. You’ve done well so far… … .’

“It’s a bit boring… Can’t you let me go out alone?”

Lecia turned her head while lying on the table.

Enrite was glaring at him with fierce eyes.

At first, I didn’t like that expression, but now I’m used to it, so I was able to accept it with ease.

“You’d better consider your position.”

“Think about it. If you were going to betray, you’ve already done it. what is that… Wouldn’t it be fine if you ran away when fighting the Great King or something?”

“What do you have now?”

“I don’t have any. Without you, I have to sleep on the street.”

“… … .”

Enrite frowned and waited for another answer.

Lesia seems to be thinking for a while, but soon sends magic to her right hand.

“Are you talking about this?”

“It used to be dangerous, but now it’s even more dangerous. It is not easy to conquer now.”

Enrite looks at the magic sword Lesia is holding and is gripped by a sense of alienation.

It was an artificial demonic sword modeled after seven demonic swords, but its inherent power was bizarre and profound.

I couldn’t help but be more wary because I had seen Lesia use that demonic sword.

“You’re saying you’re going to kill me because you can’t subdue me?”

“Hasn’t that demonic sword made you stronger?”

“Are you sure you’re willing to kill me?”

“There is nothing you cannot achieve if you risk your life.”

This time, Seran startled and glanced at Enrite.

It meant that he would kill Lesia at all costs.

Of course, if Lesia didn’t cause trouble, Enrite wouldn’t have stepped forward.

“Are you going to die with me?”

“Shouldn’t you be held accountable for doing that?”

“Does that mean that if I do something wrong, it is your responsibility?”

“I made an appointment with Black and decided to spy on you. If there are casualties because of you, I have to deal with it even at the cost of my life.”

“Ahh… that’s too much Why do you not trust me like this?”

“I will ask the opposite. How can I trust you?”

“That… uh… … .”

Lecia looked for plausible words, but soon shut her mouth.

Normally, she tries to listen to what Enrite has to say, but at critical moments, she acts on her own.

Of course, the result was not bad, but the process was distorted, so he was reprimanded.

“You always disobey my orders and act as you like, so there’s no way I can trust you.”

“Then should I have stayed there?”

“Coming out doesn’t help! I almost ruined my plan because of you!”

“It worked out in the end, right? The Great King is dead, and he is wounded… … .”

“I had to kill him too! I don’t know how it will come back for not killing him!”

Of course, Enrite had no intention of blaming Lesia.

Because Lesia was there, he was able to deliver a decisive blow to the Demon God while preparing for the invasion of the Great Sea King.

However, it was inadvertently scolded because the bad looks bigger than the good.

“I was going to kill him too! I tried, but it didn’t work!”

“So I told you to follow my instructions. If I had waited a little longer, I would have had a chance to kill him in one shot!”

“I can use this to kill you, but are you telling me to leave it as it is? If I had done as you said, I wouldn’t have even attacked you.”

“That was the black thing to do. It would have been fine if I or Vice-captain Lihines stepped in. You were the one who didn’t listen to me and moved!”

Even as Enrite glared at Lecia, she realized that she was acting differently than she thought.

Lesia instinctively felt a sense of repulsion, but she couldn’t bear to deny it because it wasn’t completely wrong.

‘… I want to go out.’

Caught between the two, Saeran quietly lowered her head.

Enrite and Lecia argued every single day, sometimes pushing each other with sharp edges.

Saeran had been watching it all along, and on the contrary, it felt like her heart was getting tired.

‘I must endure this to become stronger, right?’

Saeran steadfastly recalled her goal and tried to overhear the conversation between the two.

Personally, it just looks like they’re fighting, but the two are quite strong.

Considering the cases of Shion and Harnette, shouldn’t we somehow read the atmosphere?

‘Let’s follow at least half of the black knights. half… … .’

The royal palace, the royal gymnasium.

All the magic sword users finally gathered in one place.

Brandis arranged the schedule, albeit belatedly, and was able to arrange a seat in the safest and quietest place.

No one would enter the Royal Ballroom without the King’s permission.

“Black, what should I do now?”

“You can take out the magic sword and put the magic into it.”

In response to Shion’s answer, the magic sword users summoned magic swords at the same time.

Shion exchanges glances with Enrite and blows magic into the demonic sword.

Only Hanette was emitting magic without taking out the magic sword.

‘I feel embarrassed when nothing happens.’

Shion looks around with a sense of pressure.

I couldn’t find anyone other than the magic sword user.

Brandis also thought it was right to hide the existence of the magic sword, so even the Royal Knights were not allowed to enter it.

‘I guess you’ll know after you try it.’

Starting with Acid Rain, all the demonic swords began to emit their own colors in turn.

Navy blue, silver, sky blue, light brown, yellow, light green.

The royal gymnasium was immersed in silence for a while, but nothing changed.

‘Is there a problem after all?’

Zion already knew about the cause.

The awakening of El Tesoix and Exceed Rain, and the fact that Brecht, the demonic sword of flame, was not summoned.

The power and shape of the two demonic swords changed, and Hannett was not aware of Brecht’s existence, so she might have escaped from the seven demonic swords.

‘I have to find another way… … .’

As Shion tries to give up, the color of the demonic swords deepens even more.

Harnett’s magical power also turned red at some point, and the color gradually deepened.

Eventually, as we reached the limit, a group of lights harmonized and a mysterious voice was heard.

– He who connects the five sources will create salvation.

– Those who embrace light and darkness will destroy evil.
