87 – So – 3

The amount of relaxation desired varies from person to person.

Some people take a break by lying in bed and not getting up, while others take a break by eating delicious food.

Therefore, Cecile was grateful for her taste for rest.

“Depending on what we do while resting here and receiving healing, does the sage’s pain increase? For example, taking an expensive rest…”

“It’s not like that, so don’t feel pressured and just relax. As I said, we can provide anything you need for rest and healing. But, you’ll have to use it all here.”

Leia spoke with sincerity, and Cecile smiled.

waited for that

“Really? Then can you give me a magic book? I’m healed by studying.”

“If it’s a magic book… what do you mean…”

“The highest level of magic.”

The principality developed much more magic than other countries, and was able to learn precious magic without difficulty.

But even so, the development of the highest level magic was not much different from other places.

Cecil, who had mastered most of the highest-level magic available in the duchy with her outstanding talent, decided to take advantage of this opportunity.

“Bring all the top-notch magic books currently possessed here. And bring all the items for magic recovery.

At her long request, Leia was silent for a moment, then raised her hand. At the same time, the door opened, and along with several books of magic, the items Cecil requested were provided.

As soon as they were put in place, Cecile immediately examined the spell book.

this is learned

this is knowing

This is already learned.

Cecil quickly looked through the titles of the spellbooks and found the spellbook she had been looking for for a long time and the spellbook she needed the most in the current situation.

“This and this. Take all but two.”

“All right.”

What Cecile chose was fantasy realization, the highest level of fantasy magic.

A powerful illusion-type magic that creates a kind of barrier and constructs one’s illusions within it.

It was a powerful magic that was quite useful in wars that required damage to many, where those with mental powers below a certain level considered illusions to be real and became unable to fight.

and the other one.

‘Thousands of lines.’

Unlike the realization of fantasy, it is a magic that is used for one person, and it is a magic that gives strong damage to those with a malicious orientation and buffs to those with a good orientation.

When you have to fight a malignant enemy like a devil, this ‘Thousands of Lines’ will surely be of greater help than any magic you have learned.

After lightly taking two magic books, Cecil sat down at the luxurious desk, put the magic recovery crystal ball next to her, and turned her head.

“Hey Chugi…”

Unlike himself, it seems that Veronica did not want anything here.

She has already prepared an altar in one corner of the room and is sitting down and praying.

She is a truly greedy woman. Shouldn’t it be considered greedy?

Cecile understood the reason why she had been screaming until just now, but changed her attitude in an instant.

‘It must be for the wise.’

If this is a place where anything is offered for healing. Maybe the place where the sage entered is a place where anything is provided for pain.

From what I’ve experienced so far, the sage has always done what he said was possible.

That’s why he chose the ordeal of asceticism himself.

why?

Because he likes to suffer?

That’s not going to happen.

Then there is only one answer.

There is a way for the sage to endure the ordeal of asceticism.

But just in case, it’s not enough to be prepared.

The possibility that he will be in a half-baked state when the ordeal is over cannot be ruled out.

Veronica noticed that even for that time, she had to prepare her holy power as much as possible.

‘Really. It’s not easy.’

Cecil looked at the two magic books she had chosen.

As a ruler of a country, it was only natural that he had to prepare for that time as he did not know when a war would break out.

So useful in war.

Realization of fantasy, the highest level of magic that cannot be obtained even in the principality, should be learned by prioritizing it above all else.

Since you don’t know when this ordeal of healing will end, what she needs to learn as the princess right now is the realization of fantasy.

You don’t know how long it will take you to learn the highest level magic, even if you are yourself.

Didn’t the sage say that there?

He says he can catch the devil with Cardinal Veronica and himself.

So, it is right for him, who is only a bonus, to learn to realize his fantasy here.

Cecile chuckled.

and.

Without hesitation, he unfolded ‘Thousands of Lines’.

How long has it been? Cecile, who had barely mastered thousands of lines in a space so desolate that even the flow of time could not be known, raised her hand to activate the magic.

A soft light resembling holy power formed on her hand.

The light looked very pure, like a sage or Veronica who could use holy power.

Cecile glanced at Leia, who hadn’t lost her posture since she first appeared.

If that woman was also a servant of the devil, thousands of lines would work.

How about trying to get out of here after defeating Leia?

When she was contemplating whether or not to blow the light she was holding in her hand.

“it’s over.”

Did he even notice his own thoughts? Leia opened the door. What’s inside is shimmering.

It was the exit that signaled the end of the ordeal.

-Tadadak!

Veronica, who had been praying with her hands together like a stone statue, jumped up. As she flew through the ordeal, Cecil stared intently at the fantasy realization magic book she hadn’t even opened.

If you ask whether it’s a waste or not, of course it’s a waste.

However.

“It doesn’t mean that.”

Cecil trudged toward the exit of the ordeal, looked at Leia, and said,

“Tell the devil to wait. The price of playing with people will never be light.”

Despite her almost threatening words, Leia was still expressionless.

Like, if you want to try it, try it.

After coming out of her ordeal, Veronica frantically looked around and stiffened.

It was because I found a person standing in front of the ordeal of mortification that was disappearing.

Looking pretty exhausted, he stood upright with his arms crossed with a glum face.

“Hyunwoo!!”

If I came out after suffering from the ordeal and became that haggard, I would lie down, but why are you doing that?

Veronica hurriedly poured heels at Hyeonu and shouted.

“What the hell… what the hell happened over there?!”

I felt like crying.

While he is resting comfortably, Hyeonu…

Cecile, who appeared behind the weeping woman, was equally astounded.

“Hey. Sage. Teach me. What happened?”

“What the hell…!”

to both questions.

The sage replied calmly with a well-groomed face without even loosening his folded arms.

“Nothing…nothing happened.”

After that answer, the wise man lost his mind.

***

How crazy have you been?

When I opened my eyes, I felt something soft on the back of my head, and there was a large lump in front of my eyes.

I knew at once. That you’re getting a lap pillow from Veronica.

“Woke up?”

I brushed away the silver hair tickling my face and stood up. The physical strength and mental strength consumed while enduring the ordeal had already been recovered.

Looking at the floor, there are several empty bottles of the highest quality healing potion and tranquilizers lying around.

I wrote a lot. It should be just heels. Mental strength can be supplemented with meditation, a shaman’s skill.

“you really…!!”

“Ugh…”

Veronica’s hand gripped my cheek and twisted it tightly. It’s not painful, but annoying enough.

So I could see how worried she was.

“Why are you going through such a hard time on your own! It hurts Siri!”

“This is fine.”

“Is this enough? Do you know what your face looked like earlier?”

“It must have been close to death.”

It was like that in the game too. The ordeal of asceticism harasses those who enter it until just before death, and then sends them back.

never kill In the first place, this ordeal is an ordeal of discord, not an ordeal of killing the challenger.

‘I’ve worked hard, but I hope you guys can play and eat!’ It is said that it is to create discord between parties based on that.

Even if you kill them, the solidarity of the party will become even stronger.

“It’s been hard to heal.”

“Haa… You really do remember the promise we made when we entered, so wait and see.”

After inflating her cheeks, Veronica slowly removed her hands from my cheeks and stroked them gently.

Anyway, now that these boring trials are over, shall we go?

Previously.

“Hey. Cecil. Why did you learn thousands of lines? Isn’t fantasy realization better?”

“…You really saw it.”

“Didn’t they explain it? So what’s the answer?”

“I’m strong even without fantasizing. I’ll get stronger when the dragon’s curse is lifted.”

“okay?”

“I didn’t learn it specifically for you, so don’t worry about it.”

Cecile, who said this in a clear and cold manner, turned her head away.

If so, that would be it.

After I understood, Cecile looked at me dissatisfied with something and asked,

“So? What happened in the ordeal of penance? Can’t you tell me now?”

What happened?

If I tried to explain it, it was clear that either Veronica or Cecile would only feel bad.

Do we really need to increase our stress for no reason?

I got the answer right away.

No matter how much I chose the ordeal of penance, Veronica and Cecil would both feel guilty, so there was no need to increase that guilt.

“Come on. Let’s go! Let’s go!”

“Hey! The answer!”

There is one final step left to finish all of this.

After hearing my words, the two came to their senses and nodded and looked at the road that appeared.

Now, if you go down there, you can face the boss of this event, the demon Eurye.

“What’s the devil’s countermeasure?”

Veronica asked, taking out the relic and mace. Its fighting spirit is so great that it looks like it will charge the devil as soon as it sees it.

Well, since I kept collecting holy power while passing the ordeal, I might want to use it quickly.

When she asked with a smile on her white forehead, even revealing blue veins, I remembered the memory of the game and explained.

Phase 1 is nothing special, so just fight.

The problem is phase 2.

“After catching it, he’ll seduce you in the second half. It’s a mental attack, so if you endure it, it’s okay. And I can solve that, so don’t bother with him until I signal and stay calm.”

“Yes? That’s all right.”

“Ah. And Cecil. As soon as I attack, blow thousands of lines.”

“okay.”

In addition, he told me about some precautions and tactics.

It was fine with Veronica, as she had worked with her a lot, but it wasn’t like that with Cecil, so she had to be careful.

As we talked, we passed through the corridor and arrived at the large door.

Horrible monsters and screaming people were engraved on the iron gate, which looked like there was something to it.

As soon as Veronica saw the door, she openly frowned.

“I can feel the evil inside.”

“It’s evil, but would you be good then? Now. Then. Come here!!”

-bang!!

When I kicked the door open, what I saw was a dark space where only a faint light could be glimpsed.

As soon as you set foot there, dark cries and screams of pain begin to resound like a choir from a choir.

Hearing that, Veronica gritted her teeth.

He seems to have noticed that this is a chant.

She knew very well that singing a hymn with screams and cries was an insult to God.

“…to be cheeky.”

It was as if they were crying out to go back and run away.

Fluctuating mana spreads out, and a sticky red liquid like blood spreads across the floor.

and.

– Iron!!

Iron puck, iron puck, iron puck, iron puck, iron puck, iron puck, iron puck, iron puck, iron puck, iron puck, iron puck, iron puck, iron puck, iron puck, iron puck, iron puck, iron puck, iron puck.

Along with profane chants, the sound of something huge walking out is heard.

A gigantic body that seemed to freeze through the dim light.

Two naturalizations come to mind in the dark.

It’s snow.

Horrible, cursed eyes.

Singing the profane chants that permeated the place were those clinging to the eye’s owner, the six-armed monstrosity.

Are they the victims of that demon?

Those whose shape was not properly known struggled and howled, and the monster grinned at those who were caught in its body with a face resembling a wolf.

“…Kreur…”

The monster laughed happily and opened its huge mouth to let out a roar to announce the start of the war.

I didn’t just let it go.

-Keuuh…Kuhuhhh?!

I am a huge monster that appears in the dark after transforming the moonlight into a gauntlet.

I threw a foot shot at the boss of this event, the demon Eurye, to stop its roar.

-Kwagwawang!!

With the sound of the giant rolling, I threw the magic orb into the air, revealing my vision.

Veronica and Cecil, who were nervous about the magic sphere’s light, are seen to be bewildered.

Making eye contact with them, I blinked one eye and shrugged.

It’s a national rule to skip appearance scenes.
