“Mr. Lee Seo-yeon's pendant is, as you know, not an ordinary object. A special item that fairies give to their priests. Symbolically, it means a lot. ”
This is a story I already know. I heard the same story from Iris.
“Originally, such novels contained the knowledge and power of the ancient priests who worked under the fairies. The newly appointed Priests quickly learn strength and knowledge through their newness. ”
It's often the power of the spirit. Is it a concept similar to contracting spirits in the sanctuary of heroes? I think it might be more powerful than that.
If the contract with the Spirit meant simply planting seeds on the contractor, the newcomers now seemed to be guiding their way so that their priests could become stronger quickly.
“Does that mean that there is such power in the Pendant of Roberia? ”
It was quite fascinating to have the knowledge and power of all the priests working under Roberia. If you learn it quickly, Lee Seo-yeon will quickly become strong.
But Edenmeyer shook his head.
“No, it's not meant to convey Roberia's pendant to future generations. ”
“· · · If not, then what is it? ”
“That pendant is a vessel for sealing something. ”
“ · · · · · · · · · · · · ”
Yoohyun thinks something unknown came out of his mouth. What a story. Despite seeing Yoohyun's expression, Edenmeyer remained silent.
“If nothing had happened, there would still be something sealed inside the pendant with strong power. tied to an artifact of the Demon King called the Chain of the Thousand Bees. ”
· · · Relic of the Demon King.
That's why they're out here again. Yoohyun felt her heart getting cheaper.
I felt something dangerous when I saw it. Did you give yourself something like that?
And Iris didn't know. Maybe he didn't really know. She didn't know anything about Roberia's death either. It's not weird not knowing exactly what the pendant is.
“Is that okay? I heard it sounds dangerous. ”
“· · · Dangerous. Honestly, I don't know until then. But he seemed to be able to speak his own language. Roberia said there's nothing to be afraid of. ”
“Does it work? ”
“Yes, because the terms of the exclusive priesthood were contractual with the existence within the pendant. That's why Roberia couldn't save the Priest until the end. ”
That's the deal. With an unidentified existence?
Yoohyun was troubled. I don't know if I can trust Edenmeyer right now.
Sometimes I look to see if Lee Seo-yeon has any signs, but I don't see anything unusual. She felt frustrated knowing what the pendant was like.
Yoohyun narrowed his eyes.
“Let me ask you one question. Why do you know so well? No matter how much he worked for Roberia, I think he knows too much. ”
“That's · · ·. ”
Edenmeyer blurred his expression. It's a painful face. It must be really rare to see a man's face and feel sorry for him. But Edenmeyer had such a sad face.
He said as he hesitated.
“Because I was Roberia's contractor. ”
“· · · Contractor? ”
Yoohyun carefully searched Edenmeyer. Young. When was Roberia's death?
At that time Edenmeyer was a young boy.
He's a boy, blessed by fairies. Is Edenmeyer's talent that great?
· · · Anything is good. Yoohyun just closed his mouth without saying anything.
I felt like I would hurt Edenmeyer if I said something here for nothing.
Edenmeyer quickly chuckled his emotions. Return to your usual appearance.
“I'm sorry, I've shown you something strange. ”
“· · · No. That's it. Don't think too deeply. ”
Nevertheless, Edenmeyer did not lift his head, bowing.
He's really uncomfortable with a lot of things. I don't want to do this.
“Can I ask you one last question? ”
I can see the movement of the Horseman Investigation Squad trying to leave. I was checking my luggage to make sure I was all set up. If you confirm that nothing is missing, it will move right away. Edenmeyer nods.
“I'm fine, but I don't have much time. ”
He seems to notice the atmosphere when he leaves.
“What can I do to make a contract? ”
“· · · That's a mistake. ”
Edenmeyer seems to think deeply, but shakes his head.
“I don't know. I've never asked you that. ”
· · · Hmm. Yoohyun nods.
“Thank you. I look forward to seeing you in a few days. ”
Edenmeyer bows and says hello and turns his back. I can see the Horseman Survey leaving. Edenmeyer naturally joined the back row. Ugh, they left.
*
The Horseman Investigator left the inn quietly. By now, I'm going through Aria. If they were, they might be able to go out to the maze in a day.
Yoohyun called Lee Seo-yeon and Percy.
I called Lee Seo-yeon to confirm the pendant, and Percy asked me to help confirm it. Maybe she knows something. Yoohyun expected it.
Fortunately, Percy received a favor with a pleasant face. Upon waking up, she felt better than ever. Yoohyun, on the other hand, was tired.
“· · · So there might be something in the pendant? ”
Lee Seo-yeon looked a little surprised after telling the story. But I hold the pendant in my crooked hand.
She stares at the ground as she ponders and slowly raises her head.
“In case · · ·. It's not like you have to throw away the pendant because it's dangerous, is it? ”
Her voice, asking cautiously, was trembling as if frightened. Even the big drops of snow that look naive seem to have earthquakes. I felt a willingness to hold it, even if it was dangerous.
· · · Was it so good? Yoohyun smiled inside.
This is why I feel like I have become a bad man who gives gifts and takes them away. But luckily, there's nothing she can imagine. I didn't call her back.
“No, it's not like that. It doesn't matter if you let it go anyway. ”
Yoohyun said as she stroked her head to reassure her. Then Lee took a long breath and sat down on the chair as if his legs were loosened. The complexion is white.
But he was relieved with a soft smile.
Yoohyun decided to tell Edenmeyer all the explanations he heard. From stories about the chief priests in Roberia to contracts. Lee calmly listened to the explanation.
At the end of the explanation, Percy, who was standing by, asks.
“So what exactly do you want to ask me? ”
“I want to know exactly what's in the pendant. Can you confirm that? ”
“Umm · · ·. Well, I'll give it a try. ”
Percy, who had a vague expression, reached out to Lee Seo-yeon. I don't know why Lee Seo-yeon asked for a pendant, but he hesitated for a moment and then slowly released it from her neck.
Percy soon set up a magic camp in the air. The view was similar to the one used to manipulate the over-weapon. Place the pendant on top of the atmospheric magic scroll. Then the sorcerer shined.
I wonder if it's been about 10 minutes.
“Argh?”
Percy, muttering with his eyes closed, raises his eyes in awe and laughs.
“What is this? The defenses are too strong. ”
You mutter like that, and then you come back in half an hour.
Percy frowns and shakes his head.
“· · · This is a herd. He made a better wizard than me. Moreover, the magic built into it is too heterogeneous. ”
“What if I take a little more time? ”
“· · · Time is not a problem. Skill is also a skill, but there is no way because it is completely different from the magic structure that is being used in this age. It's been too long. Even an ancient magician wouldn't be able to do this. This is more ancient than before · · ·. · · · What the hell. ”
It didn't seem like he was just bluffing.
Twisting his lips, he stares at the pendant with a complex snowflake.
Then how do we do this · · ·.
It was then, as Lee Seo-yeon barely empowered.
“· · · Can't I talk to the angry people inside? ”
“It could be dangerous. ”
I didn't believe Edenmeyer, but it was hard to trust him completely.
He gave me a warning, but Lee Seo-yeon said with great courage.
“I think it's going to be okay. And if you can get help, wouldn't it be nice to get help? ”
Well, that's too much.
Percy helps Lee Seo-yeon.
“What do you say? Let's try it. You won't do anything weird to Seo Yeon because the seal seems to be tight anyway. I guess we'll just have to talk. ”
· · · Is it really okay? Are you worrying too much?
“Brother, trust me. ”
Lee Seo-yeon, who has approached me recently, has a face that is almost closed. It must be hard not to let him see that face.
Yoohyun sighed deeply.
“Fine. But what are you going to do? ”
“Yes?”
When the question mark appeared on Lee Seo-yeon's face, he smiled.
“I don't know how to talk to the one in the pendant. ”
“That's · · ·. ”
But here Percy laughs and Cook says,
“That's an obvious way. Ancient or present. ”
