Armed Summoners - Black Spears and the Brave Men of the Other World

Episode One Hundred and seventy-four: Faria and Faria (I)

It was on November 26, five hundred and two years of the Continental Calendar, that Faria left the Dragon House with Malik-Majik on the Gandian Zalwarn side.

It was about the day I ended my crowning ceremony in Bandor, King Abad's capital, and returned to the Dragon House, and for a while to Faria, who thought I could stay and slow down in the Dragon House, it was just water talk in my sleeping ear. But if we listen to Malik-Majik, it's only natural that he won't be able to stay or not, and after troubling himself, he also decided to go to Lyohan with Malik, with Setsuna's backing.

If this were to go for Lyohan by road, I would have made the choice not to go.

Lyohan from Gandia, too far away.

If it was by land, it wasn't something I knew how many months it would take to reach Lyohan. Land routes mean that a number of borders need to be crossed, and it is not unlikely that they will be stopped each time. Sometimes you may encounter the Imperial Devil, or you may encounter a bandit. I wasn't going to indulge in a long journey that was not going to be delayed like the Imperial Demon or the thief, but that's why I didn't intend to slow down.

This time, I agreed to go to Lyohan because there is an assumption that I can go and come back soon.

With the ability of Ravensfeather, which Malik-Majik took over from Quor-Ezen, he could have extremely shortened the distance, which would take several months one way. Because by combining the ability to fly, which is the basic capability of a winged subpoena weapon, with the ability of Ravensfeather, super acceleration, you can get unimaginable travel speeds. However, it is not possible to travel all day. Ravens Feather's ability and super acceleration is due to the heavy strain on the body and spirit, as well as heavy wear and tear. It was necessary to travel and resting repeatedly. Still, in the twenty-sixth day, we have crossed the Abad border and reached Juwain, so Ravensfeather's abilities might be something like that.

Thus, Faria grabbed Malik, with his pitch-black wings spread, and flew straight north from the dragon palace on the Gandhian Zalwarn side, through Abad, and followed the border between Juwain and Armador. Flying far above the border eliminated the need to obtain permits every time she crossed the border, and even in that sense, her journey to Lyohan became extremely easy. During his rest, although he had encountered the Imperial Devil, he was able to repel Faria alone, and from then on, when he tried to rest in the city, he was also freed from the danger of being attacked by the Imperial Devil.

Going north through Armador, everything from there was in the VASTARIAN COMMUNITY FORCE and Faria remembered some tension. Lyohan's relationship with Vashtaria is not always good. As Vashtaria, we do not want to acknowledge Lyohan or any other heterogeneous molecule present within the sphere of power, and we always want to erase it, but because Vashtarian forces make it difficult to destroy Lyohan, we have recognized independent autonomy and have come to an exchange of commitments of mutual non-interference.

Lyohan is also trying not to get involved with Vashtalia, and it was rare in itself for Lyohan humans to go outside Lyohan. An armed summoner who has completed the training course and has served one person will travel across the continent to belong to the Association of Continental Summoners and spread the art of armed summoning. Normally, a person born in Lyohan is one who grew up in Lyohan and ends his life in Lyohan. That has been handed down with cotton long before Lyohan became the birthplace of the armed summons, and it has not changed since Lyohan became the birthplace of the armed summons and the main mountain of the Association.

Faria is about to go back to Lyohan.

But I didn't intend to stay in Lyohan. It's just a temporary return home to visit my grandmother, one of the few flesh parents. Even if there was another thought in Lyohan's governing mechanism, the Mountain Protection Conference, it had nothing to do with the current Faria.

but nervous, there will be that too.

Can Faria push through her own opinions when she is stuck at the Mountain Protection Conference?

Even after reaching the northern earth, Malik continued to fly. Ravens Feather's acceleration and flight altered Faria's vision visibly as she flew, and if she hadn't closed her eyelids, she might have turned her eyes. No matter how fast you get after you reach a certain altitude, there is no change in the surrounding landscape and no eye turns. However, now the fight against the cold begins. To keep flying like humans on the ground would have to maintain considerable altitude and then push through the wintered air, and Faria had asked Malik to descend to the ground during the first flight, no longer able to withstand the cold. Then I put on more clothes, and thereby countered the cold,

Uncle Setuna can't show you that outfit.

Seeing the swollen faria, Malik's words pierced his chest, biting off a laugh.

Anyway, the flying has been going well itself since the cold control was applied. After entering the Vashtarian sphere of power, no one could blame him, he just flew even. I kept flying and quickly reached Yamagate Street in Lyohan.

I checked since I arrived at Yamagata Street, and that day was, December 2nd. In only six days, we are reaching from Ryufu to Lyohan. That's something like Quor's Ravens Feather, and I was sincerely glad Malik took over his subpoena arm. It was a subtle feeling when he was using Quor's summoning arm on his own, but given that he was coming and going with Lyohan and Gandia, it was necessary.

Malik only does what he needs to do. He was such a boy.

I must have visited the Dragon House that day because I thought it was necessary.

Mountain Gate Street is a city surrounded by huge walls, also known as the arms of Miyama. Exercising Ravensfeather's abilities would be easy, such as jumping over, but Malik didn't do it. He stepped down in front of a huge castle gate with soldiers. Exactly. I guess you have the head that you have to follow formal procedures to get in and out of Lyohan.

As Malik walked over to the gate, a heavily armed gate soldier saluted him. Reminds me that he is the Four Great Heavenly Samurai.

"Always good luck, Master Malik...... who's there?

"Look. Don't you get it? It's little Faria."

I don't know.

And Faria thought, because she was still bulging. And with that, I was somewhat embarrassed. I was flying in the cold wind until just now. Just because you get off the ground doesn't mean you can take off your jacket right away.

I could see the gate soldiers opening their eyes behind their helmets.

"Ha? Ha... Was it Little Faria!?

"Please don't be like that. I'm just an armed summoner."

"You've been robbed of your role from the Mountain Protection Conference,"

"Dear Malik"

He's got a cool face. Being the four heavenly samurai who recognize the goddess of war as the Lord, he may not have thought of anything, such as the Mountain Protection Conference. In that regard, its position is very different from that of Quor.

Second, think.

If Quor were alive and he was the summoner of Ravensfeather, Faria might not have been here right now. Quor must comply with the decision of the Mountain Protection Conference. He was the dog of the Mountain Protection Conference. It was difficult for him, a winged runner, to ignore the will of the Mountain Protection Conference, albeit for the goddess of war.

It was Malik the Four Great Heavenly Samurai who silenced the intentions of the Mountain Protection Conference and even flew to Gandhia Kun to bring Faria back.

"Uh, I'm sorry. Well, then, that's the thing, so you'll let me through, won't you?

"Of course it is. Open the gate!

"Open the door!"

When the gate soldiers chanted, a huge gate separated Lyohan's mountain gate street from the outside world opened with a sound.

Mountain Gate Street is one of three residential districts that make up the aerial city of Lyohan, located at the foot of a giant mountain named Mount Lyov, as the name of the mountain gate, which closely monitors access to your mountain. In order to reach the aerial capital, which became the name of the aerial city of Lyohan, it was necessary to enter Yamagate Street first. It was difficult to climb this seasonally quaint Mount Lyov from outside Mountain Gate Street, with the fact that the Vashtarian army tried and failed to break Mount Lyov more than once. The few examples of success are also pointless because they were repelled without difficulty by the armed summoners who had been waiting ahead of them. It was Vashtarian troops who decided it was more efficient to control Mount Lyoff than to climb Mount Lyoff, but there was no way they could control the protected Mountain Gate Street in Farya-Valdish or anything like that. He said the battle over Mountain Gate Street with Vashtalia, which he still didn't know would give up, went on for a long time.

Vashtaria set up a negotiating seat with Lyohan because he did not see a winning chance in that long battle. As a result, Lyohan was the only one in the Vashtarian sphere of power to win the right to independent autonomy, and Lyohan's history marked a new beginning on that day.

In other words, it is the reign of the goddess of war.

Lyohan did not pull a single step against the overwhelming Vashtarian army and was able to grasp the victory because of the presence of one armed summoner who was on the front line, more ambitious than anyone and more fiercely fought out than anyone else.

Its name is Farya-Valdish.

He is the person from whom Faria's name came, and the beloved grandmother of Faria.

Faria visited Lyohan only to meet her grandmother, and she could not afford to enjoy the same landscape as she had enjoyed a few years before the nostalgia of Yamagata Street. This has been the case ever since this journey with Malik began. I was worried about my grandmother.

My grandmother, Fariah-Valdish, fell down because of the deterioration in health caused by old age.

Even during my break at the Yamagata Inn, I couldn't help but rush my mind.

"I know I want to see you soon, but I forbid rush. It's not easy to meet the Great Summoner."

Malik also seemed to have figured out that Faria was driven by a sense of impatience. To his such a word, Faria looked in the mirror that was decorated in the room and became aware of his pale complexion. Maybe this has been the way things have been since we left the Dragon House.

Malik was right.

It was not easy to meet Farya-Valdish, who was called the Goddess of War and also the Great Summoner. Normally, it took a few days, if not months, to complete the process at the Yamagata Street bureau or until the authorization came down. That is because Faria-Baldish is the most important person for Lyohan and there must be no danger to him, and in some cases we must wait for the outcome of the deliberations of the Mountain Protection Conference.

Given that, I was anxious to see if permits would come down to Faria.

"What, a mountain protection meeting isn't stupid?"

Malik, on the other hand, was optimistic. It's not his fault or anything like that that his appearance seems more frivolous than when he flies through the Dragon House. It's wearing out. Physically, mentally. And blood, too.

Ravensfeather needed blood as well as mental strength to demonstrate its immense abilities. It's the ability to give blood as a price. The more they fly, the more blood they consume. And the blood consumed can be recovered by sucking from others. It was the origin of Quor's two names, "Vampires," and also the cause of his floating name with numerous women. The woman who was sucked of blood by him is what captivated him from that moment on.

Ravensfeather's blood-sucking behavior involves some comfort, which was Quor's explanation. They wanted Quor to suck their blood because that pleasure would sicken them. Keeping such women everywhere was the doggy Quor way of the Mountain Protection Conference, and there were several women throughout Lyohan who were bound by Quor and blood bonds.

Most importantly, the subject of blood suction is not exclusive to women. Malik, who had now reached the Dragon House, said he had obtained blood from Setuna. Faria didn't witness that blood-sucking scene, but she remembers that Setuna, who was too blood-sucking, looked like she couldn't even move for a while.

"If you need blood, take my blood."

Faria said, Malik has been waving.

"No, that's fine."

"But"

"If you smoke from little Faria, Uncle Setuna will hate you"

"Yes?"

Setuna's name came out completely unintentionally, and Faria raised her bare voice.

"If you go up there, there's Nyu."

"Master Nyu?

"Don't worry, you can handle it if you ask Nyu"

Malik laughed at Faria's doubts.

In that way, Faria waited for Malik and I to hear from the Yamagata Street office.

In the end, Faria's permission to climb came down the following day.
