Count Scribe's Tutor

Leave Isha in her room.

Ferda goes straight down the stairs. It was to meet Heron who suddenly returned. I also urged him to take a step because I had to listen to the reports.

Ferda leaves the mansion in an instant and heads to the garden.

However, when we arrived at the destination, someone welcomed Heron before him.

[Dad!]

Lovely bunny. It was Radina, Heron's only daughter.

As soon as Radina found him, she ran quickly and held him in her arms. Then he rubbed his cheeks on his pale face. Then, Heron's expression, which had been stiff until just now, softened quickly.

“Dear daughter, how are you? ”

[Yes! I have a lot of work to do, and I need your help too, Prince!]

“I see. Was it hard for you? ”

[sighs] Waiting for your dad?]

After answering, Radina smiles at Vashti.

I went up without saying anything about hertemperature. Then carefully stroke Radina's head. A little clumsy, but Radina smiles brightly, regardless.

Meanwhile, Ferda watches it from a distance from the garden.

And after just five minutes, he approaches Heron.

“You're early. ”

I didn't want to interrupt my wife's intimate encounter, but for now, I had to solve the question first. So I came to the point without hesitation.

“Weren't you supposed to arrive around tomorrow? ”

“Thanks to the job well done. More. ”

After a brief answer, Heron circles the area.

Like I'm looking for someone. You'd have to be somebody. Of course it's the truth. Ferda smiles and shakes her hand thinking about it.

“If you're looking for reality, it's no use. Because right now. ”

“I know. The king contacted us himself. ”

Heron cuts him off first.

Then he continued as if he knew everything.

“He told me to follow your instructions until the end of the study. ”

After saying that, Ferda's expression changed subtly.

That meant Heron wasn't looking for reality. Then who the hell did you find? When I opened my lips to solve the curiosity.

Heron gives me the name of an unimaginable being.

“I'm looking for Tervand. ”

“What about Tervand? ”

Ferda asked with a curious face.

It was because Heron had not thought of finding Tervand. Meanwhile, Heron explains why he is looking for him in a blunt manner.

“I have a question. I saw something strange in the desert. ”

Well, Tervand knows a lot of things about deserts.

I nodded as if I understood. Then he explained that Tervand was not here and why. After all this talk, Heron nods slightly.

“I see. I'll report it first. ”

Is it because I didn't think I'd see you for a while?

Heron plunders the Sovereignty. And then I pulled out what had happened.

“Nothing happened. But there was one thing that was unusual. ”

“What?”

“When I reported the expected arrival to the king, the Akasha horde that was chasing us suddenly began to retreat. ”

With the answer back, my eyes are wide open.

A moment later, Ferda asked straightaway.

“Retreated? Why? ”

“I don't know why. However, he disappeared without looking back as if he had been summoned by someone. Thanks to this, I was able to arrive earlier than expected. ”

Heron closes his mouth, and Ferda's face hardens for a moment.

Akasha, the fragments of the disaster are extremely simple. His goal is to exterminate all humans or turn them into pieces of catastrophe. Therefore, we never run away unless the situation is very disadvantageous.

And then you suddenly retreated after him?

It was definitely strange that it wasn't a special occasion. So Ferda took this change seriously. As he ponders, Heron's voice taps back into his ears.

“Oh, and that scrap metal was left near the border. ”

You must be talking about Rodenhark.

Ferda had instructed this in advance. It was because they needed someone to protect them near the border. With the combat strength of Rodenhag, the crystal should be able to handle it.

Meanwhile, I came to my senses.

Yeah, let's finish the report first.

After regaining his composure, Heron comes back with a series of questions.

“What's the situation on the border? Is the wall complete?”

“It was very high. Just as well as the walls here. ”

“Food?”

“Seemed like a lot to me. ”

I didn't ask to hear a vague answer like this.

I frowned and asked again.

“Not your opinion. What did Korut say?”

“I think I can survive until the full moon if I save my life. ”

Finally, the answer I wanted to hear came back.

Full moon, by the way? I thought I could last at least a month.

‘Looks like there are more refugees than expected. ’

I was comfortable dealing with the undead without having to worry about food. Now my head aches at the thought of caring about food problems. But fortunately, there was a solution.

‘I need to sweep Hale. ’

Hark and the Prince's food situation is quite good. No, it's very good. The Akashas have not plundered the food. On the other hand, the number of territories has decreased greatly, so you should be able to receive quite a lot.

As soon as the problem was resolved, other questions were also asked.

It was a question of how many Desert Tribes can be used as warriors, and what was the average level of warriors.

How long has it been?

Ferda got all the answers she wanted to hear. Later, as I turned my head to clear my thoughts, Heron adds.

“I have something else to tell you. ”

“Huh? What is it? ”

“About the strange thing I said earlier. ”

That's what you said you saw. So I told Tervand I wanted to ask him what it was. Ferda shrugs as she recalls it.

“I don't know much about the desert. If you want answers. ”

“I'm curious about what it is, but the fact that it came out rather disturbs me. Could be harmful. ”

Heron's face hardens steadily as he continues speaking.

Then Ferda's face became dark as well.

“Okay, then tell me. ”

Let's hear it.

What did you see that made you react like this? Then Heron's mouth opens. Immediately, he pulled out of his mouth a foreign body that he had witnessed.

“Two days ago, I saw the sky split in two. ”

Then he added that it was not a cloud.

Suddenly, the sky was split in two. I thought it would make sense, but I heard the story quietly.

“I see a crack in the back. It was so dark, like the night sky. ”

It was said that the sky was split open in broad daylight.

So it must have been pretty amazing that the crack was black.

“I didn't look away because it was a foreign body I'd never seen before. I don't know what's gonna happen. But at that moment, I met someone beyond the gap. ”

“· · · · · · · · What? ”

Ferda, who was listening to the story, was dumbfounded.

What did Heron say? I looked at him embarrassed, but the answer never came back. Heron merely passes on the story.

“The encounter was just momentary. But it was definitely snow. A single eye big enough to cover the sky. ”

Heron's voice trembles.

Like trying to suppress the horror. Does the undead not feel fear of death? It was nonsense as if the Fire Spirit was afraid of fire.

“But I was the only one who saw it. ”

“What? What are you talking about? ”

“Barbarians and Iron in the desert didn't find the snow. No, I'm guessing you didn't notice. Back then, I was looking at the same place. ”

A single eye that only Heron could recognize.

In a sudden report, Ferda's face hardens like a stone. It was because it was a stranger who did not appear at any of the original times.

‘· · · · · · · Organize. ’

A dark crevice that emerged as the sky split.

A giant one-eyed eye found beyond. It was speculated that there was an unknown being looking down at the sky.

What was he looking at? What was he doing in the first place? ’

Numerous questions followed by tails.

The first candidate to emerge is a disaster. To be precise, I remembered a disaster that had not yet been mentioned in the original article. But this was most likely not the case.

If it was a new disaster. ’

World Quests must have been triggered by the Yggdrasil system.

Like it's always been. So I was excluded from the candidate.

But it was then.

‘Wait, the Yggdrasil system? ’

Suddenly, the old memories hit my mind.

When I entered a giant tree at the edge of the desert. I have used the de-synchronization function while doubting the existence of the system

Ability to be used as a Hunter without any problems.

But it was impossible here.

Immediately, with a failed message, a message I had never seen before was displayed.

‘You said you needed the manager's approval. ’

Obviously, there were additional messages like that.

When I thought of this, my eyes cooled.

At the same time, my intuition whispered. There is a relationship between the giant one-eyed man and the manager seen in a crack in the sky. There was no reason to be like this, but for some reason I felt like it.

However, the question cannot be resolved at this point.

Ferda clenches her lips and clenches her fists.

‘First, fight off disasters as soon as possible. ’

Get your bookmarks. And as the third author advised, let's call out the fifth author. He said he could figure out the censored word.

When I decided to take action one by one.

Heron's words continue.

“But nothing happened or happened. It was only a matter of time before I laid eyes on him. ”

He didn't say he felt fear.

Ferda was not buried out of place. If it was the same situation, he would have felt fear, too.

“Still, I think it's better to report it. Could be bad for the king. ”

“Good report. I'll figure this out later. ”

I nodded with a stiff face.

That's how the report ended in the desert. Heron, who was holding his mouth tightly, soon asked the question again.

“What do we do now? ”

“Well, for starters. ”

What we need to do now is fill Tervand's void.

In other words, you are tasked with the defense of Müllern. Suddenly, when I was about to give the order, Radina suddenly met me. The sparkling eyes that look like they want something. Facing this, Ferda bursts into laughter.

“I have something to think about, so I'm hanging out with Radina. ”

[Heehee, uncle!]

Is it because I got what I wanted?

Radina smiles widely. Heron's complexion is also quite bright. While the two women were spending their time in private, Ferda glanced quietly at the southern sky.

At the same time, a black eye catches onto you.

It was because I felt anxious that the plan was getting twisted. Ferda couldn't take her eyes off the sky for a while, even after she was in a complicated mood.

And the day before the scheduled second air strike.

Something unexpected happened.
