Chapter 98

Walter is startled and quickly turns his head.

I didn’t expect the white apostle to say such a thing.

Most of all, Setinos Quasar had the authority to recommend candidates, so if they wanted to, they could raise their mantra to the king.

“… Are you recommending Ms. Harnette as a candidate for the Cetinos Quasar?”

“I am thinking about it. If you’re a little more greedy, I’d also recommend Shion-nim.”

“Are you saying you would recommend two people together?”

“I understand that there is no problem in terms of regulations.”

“… … .”

Walter followed the silence and fell into trouble.

Sion Reggiard and Hannette Adelaira were rare talents, and in recent years they have been proving their mettle.

However, it was not yet possible to determine whether it would be recommended as a Cetinos quasar.

Of course, the white apostle might have thoughts, but I wondered if they were a little out of line.

“Have you made a statement to His Majesty the King?”

“I haven’t posted my mantra yet.”

“Are you trying to raise a mantra just because you subdued the Shadow Dragon?”

“This is something no other article has ever done. Because of them, I was able to enjoy the same glory.”

Enritte found new possibilities in Zion Reggiard and Hannette Adelaira.

He was not a mere magic sword user, but a being capable of destroying the immortality of the 3 great demon kings and 4 great disasters.

In addition, Shion Reggiard knew what to do on his own, and Hanette Adelaira tried to help by moving together.

Given the power and strength of those two, it would bring true peace to this continent in the not-too-distant future.

“His Majesty the King will not allow it easily. Wouldn’t the bureaucrats also object?”

“… Both of you are young and inexperienced. The Marquis of Reggiard is conducting an arranged marriage with the immediate royal family, and the Duke of Adelaira is taking care of it. It won’t be easy, as the power is skewed to one side.”

“Are you trying to raise a mantra even though you know that?”

“There is no change in my opinion.”

Only when he conveys his will can the king think about it.

Even if the officials found out, they wouldn’t sympathize with him, but they would look back on the two.

If the two of them build up their reputation little by little, the king and officials will also be affected.

In other words, you have to keep trying to change the overall flow.

“Do you want me to help you?”

“If you can help me, I will gladly accept it.”

“… Just because I step out won’t change the outcome.”

“Two are better than one. Wouldn’t His Majesty the King take it seriously if the two of us made a statement?”

Even the mere nomination of a candidate by the Cetinos Quasar is a significant issue.

If the number is added, even the king cannot carelessly ignore it.

Knights under the direct command of the king would not give the same opinion for no reason.

“When I get a chance, I plan to persuade purple and silver as well.”

“Are you trying to agree with the Cetinos quasar?”

“If the Cetinos quasar is of a common opinion, the bureaucrats will not be able to object.”

“You have chosen the hard road.”

“If you can’t convince me, you just have to wait until the right time comes. But… … .”

Enrite is unable to speak and looks forward to the worst future.

In the meantime, it has been defending against the invasion of demon beasts without difficulty, and the 3rd demon king and 4th major disaster have hardly appeared.

However, since the Shadow Dragon was the first to break the balance, it could have led to a massive war.

‘Now there are six left. It should be destroyed when there is an opportunity.’

The lifespan of a monster may be long, but the lifespan of a human is limited.

Even Shion Reggiard and Harnette Adelaide were young now, but as time passed, they would age and die.

After those two are gone, when will we be able to destroy immortality again?

‘I should have had a relationship like that… … .’

For the first time since becoming a human being, Enrite realized what emotions are.

But I couldn’t fully understand it, and I only regarded it as a characteristic that humans have.

That’s why, even though I recognized the relationship between Shion Reggiard and Hanette Adelaira in my head, I couldn’t accept it in my heart.

‘It’s difficult. Can you call me a human?’

When he judges humans, he prioritizes their strength and magical powers, character and values.

After that, you decide whether to approach or not, and talk little by little to come to a complete conclusion.

Emotional sympathy did not exist, and only rational thinking and efficient processes were pursued.

‘What is the human heart?’

Enrite is locked in deep doubt with her eyes closed.

What principle caused immortality to fade?

Why did Acid Rain and Brecht react to their hearts?

What is hidden between these two?

‘Is it possible to know only when I give up being a demonic sword?’

His own self was born from El Tesoicb, and was given a human body by El Tesoicb.

If she escaped the demonic sword with her own will, nothing would be left.

If you die, who will try to deal with the 3 great devils and the 4 great disasters?

‘How should I… … .’

Royal Palace, Royal Banquet Hall.

Harnette encountered someone while away from Shion for a while.

It was someone he knew, and occasionally had private conversations with.

Perhaps Shion would recognize it right away, but they weren’t as close to each other as he was.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you! I heard that you went to a remote area, but are you unhurt?”

“Yes, there are no injuries. How have you been Miss Rina?”

“I am learning the Holy Law at Kinesien Divinity Church. It was a bit difficult at first, but I think it’s going well now.”

“Sex Law… What?”

“I was originally going to learn magic like Miss Harnette, right? However, they say that the sex law suits the quality more. So I started learning my voice!”

“Oh yeah?”

Hannett was puzzled, but slowly agreed.

It was unexpected, but not to the point of being terribly surprised.

For those who have already awakened their magical powers and earned the title of mage, it’s just a daily routine.

“I am a little bit sad. I wanted to be a sophisticated young lady like Miss Harnette… … .”

“Learning magic doesn’t make you a sophisticated young lady. Miss Rina still looks sophisticated enough.”

“Nevertheless… I was envious of Miss Harnette. You look so smart when you learn magic, right? Noble ladies are only jealous, they don’t try to be like Miss Hanette.”

“Miss Rina is wise. If you want something, you should try to have it. Being jealous doesn’t change anything.”

“Yes? That’s why I studied the Seongbeop diligently. The cardinal says I have talent!”

Harnette immediately remembered what she had heard from Shion.

It’s also a friendly family with the Duke of Adelaira, so there’s nothing wrong with being friendly with Raina Prandike.

It’s just speculation, but it seems that Raina Prandike has a hidden talent.

I wonder if Shion had noticed this.

“… Incredible. The cardinal wouldn’t say that to just anyone.”

“Other cardinals have said similar things… I think it was said out of politeness. Our family is a marquis.”

“Not necessarily. When you reach the level of a cardinal, you gain authority and pride. They won’t notice you because you’re an aristocrat.”

“is that so? Am I really talented?”

“of course. If you’re Miss Leina, you could be a cardinal.”

Hannette smiles calmly and gives encouragement.

Of course, it was not known whether Raina Prandike would ever really hold the title of cardinal.

I just thought it would be meaningful because it was the advice Shion gave me.

“Am I? Ahahahaha… Wouldn’t that be a bit difficult?”

“It doesn’t matter if I don’t become a cardinal. It is important that you put in the effort.”

“… Did Miss Harnette put in a lot of effort?”

“Yes, I wouldn’t say I don’t have talent, but it doesn’t mean I haven’t tried. Nothing can be done without hard work.”

When he secretly mastered magic, he considered it simply as luck.

Later, I learned that there are cases in which you cannot become a wizard no matter how hard you try, and you are sure that you have the qualifications.

After that, with the help of Shion, he entered the Rivdad Magic Society, and was able to obtain the title of mage only after exerting all his might.

“That… then… Will you accept me after I become a cardinal?”

“Are you accepting it? What do you mean?”

“I want to join the Knights of Lihines!”

“… … ?”

Harnett swallows silence, embarrassed.

Why did the Knights of Lihines suddenly appear here?

Above all, it was Shion’s decision whether to join the Knights, and he was only giving his opinion.

“Ms. Hanette obtained the title of mage and went to the outskirts, right? You killed the Shadow Dragon and brought back the spoils.”

“That… What about it?”

“I also thought that I should make such an achievement. So I thought about what to do, but the answer came quickly. Wouldn’t it be possible to become like Miss Harnette by following her around?”

“Nope. Until then… … .”

“I will work hard! I will definitely become a cardinal, so can you accept it?”

“uh… I… … .”

Hannette hesitated and began to organize her thoughts.

There were so many things to explain.

The reason why paladins can’t work alone, the process of joining the knights, the dangers of border areas and monsters, etc.

From where and how should I speak so that Rina can understand.

‘I see you’re doing well.’

Shion watches the two from a distance and slowly steps forward.

Raina Prandike was very talented as a paladin.

Even if a skilled paladin taught them, they would soon reach a high level.

‘I’ll be a cardinal in a year. If only we could draw them to our side… … .’

Karon Belaz Continent, Narak King’s Citadel.

From noblemtl.com

Keremion, the king of hell, erected a wall in the place where the thick darkness fell.

Thousands of undead knights obeyed the Narak King, and tens of thousands of undead soldiers filled the inside and outside of the castle.

From noblemtl.com

King Narak tried to expand his territory to use his troops, and the undead soldiers followed the order and slaughtered the beasts and occupied the surrounding area.

‘It’s near here.’

A human hid in this place where only the undead existed.

Moving swiftly, he entered the castle and was not noticed by anyone.

As long as he didn’t run into the Narak King, he could easily achieve his goal.

‘The first is the demonic sword of the earth… … .’

In the meantime, he has been training his swordsmanship and magical powers while handling demonic swords.

I can’t say it wasn’t hard, but I managed to persevere somehow.

In the end, he obtained power beyond the limit, and even learned the true name of the magic sword.

‘I’ll seal all the magic swords with the eighth magic sword.’
