Count Scribe's Tutor

Since Earl Keshmif joined us.

Thanks to the active cooperation of the Magic Troops, the repairs on the walls were even more accelerated.

The half-broken East Gate has already been fully repaired, and the North Gate has been repaired for about 8 years. Thanks to this, Ferda and Silvan have more time.

I was walking along the walls and looking at Sererheim.

I noticed that it caught the eye of the two stars.

“Huh? What is that? ”

A structure rises from the center of the northern gate's walls.

Seven large crystal spheres and dozens of small crystal spheres were engraved on them. He also boasted such a large size that five or six adults had to surround him.

At that time, I found someone nearby who could help me with my curiosity.

Earl Keshmif, a young wizard with horn-rimmed glasses. I approached him and asked, pointing to a bizarre device.

“Wizard Keshmif. What is this?”

“Oh, by the way, you don't know Earl Sernerk. ”

Keshmif stops walking and smiles.

He makes his way towards the structure and speaks.

“Three years ago, the result of a project that was very secret to the king. ”

Come to think of it, I thought I heard a similar word from Robert one day.

He said he was building a special magic device for the war against the Holy Land. About the time I stumbled upon the memory, Keshmif continued.

“It's called the Eye of Argos, and you can understand it's an artifact for observation and identification. Or maybe it's just an identification device. ”

The answer came back and he looked awkward.

He then looks back at the magic circle engraved in Argos' eyes.

“There's a lot of magic in it for simple things. ”

“Hahaha, yes. because in the last three years, all the players in the tower have been mobilized. ”

That said, Ferda and Silvana opened their eyes wide.

The towers are famous for their unique personality and lack of control. There were also several times in the fleet that the king ordered us to create artifacts, but only three out of six were involved.

I'm surprised all the passengers follow the king's orders.

‘That must mean Robert's strength has grown. ’

A smile appeared on Ferda's lips.

On the other hand, Keshmif, who was continuing to speak, suddenly remembered something, added an additional explanation.

“Ah, the towers of the Winter Tower aren't participating. ”

“No, Your Highness! You don't have to say that. ”

Isha, the tower of the winter tower, who was standing nearby, cries out with a sticky face. Immediately, Ferda and Silvan's gaze turned to her, and Isha coughed and protested.

“Khh, khh! I've been kind of busy. You know very well. ”

“Yes, Isha was busy. ”

“Sleeping late until the sun comes up. ”

“Oh, we agreed not to talk about that! ”

Isha's face is red with the two priests' mischievous teasing.

At the end of a grumpy conversation, Keshmif opens his mouth again.

“The Eye of Argos only has the ability to assess its position by specifying individuals with a divine power above a certain number. ”

That is, we can distinguish between sacred objects.

When he understood what it meant, Keshmif continued.

“The current value is a 3-star Divine Power. Shall we activate it? ”

“Yes, please. ”

Despite any principle of operation, I now wanted to know the power of Cererheim. Soon after, the crystal spheres in Argos' eyes radiate together.

After a short time.

Like the night sky, the black screen sparkles like a star. The light that was expanding one by one suddenly embroidered the entire screen like the Milky Way.

In this scene, his eyes were wide open.

“All these numbers. ”

“These are individuals with a divine power of three stars or higher. ”

A three-star or higher individual, as Queshamif said, was more than a minimum of Expert intermediate, and more than a high priest.

And there are over a hundred numbers that we can see right now. No, if you take a closer look, it looks like about a thousand. Isha looked at the screen together and sighed a low groan.

“Hmmm, that's a lot more than I thought. ”

“That must mean that the Holy Nation has been focused on this war. ”

Keshmif nods.

I knew this war would not be easy. But when I saw the enemy's troops like this, I felt more and more like I could feel them.

When the atmosphere around me sank into darkness.

Ferda, who was quiet, opens her mouth.

“Can you maybe set it to a higher value? ”

“Of course. This device was originally built for Ser Ferda. ”

“Yes? Made for the teacher, what is that?" ”

Is it the unexpected answer?

The thread opened its eyes wide and asked. Isha makes a guess.

“Maybe you made them to help you kill your enemies? ”

“Indeed. Ser Ferda is the greatest assassin in the realm." ”

Keshmif nods, smiling.

On the other hand, he looked uncomfortable.

“Tsk, what a waste. ”

Of course. Although Ferda's assassination skills were excellent, the assassination itself was extremely dangerous.

“Then let's set it to 4 stars or higher, as you requested. ”

Keshmif's fingers move dazzling.

After a few moments, Argos' eyes start once again with a loud noise. And this time, the results were much faster.

“That's a significant reduction compared to before. ”

“Absolutely. Even in the Holy Land, there won't be much more than a soddmaster, or more than a runway. ”

There are seven lights on the screen.

The starlight that looked like a similar star was different from each other in the intensity of light. The fact that I realized this asked with my face just in case.

“Are you more magical with the brightness of the light? ”

“Yes, that's right. ”

“If so, the identity of the brightest light. ”

“Faladin Eloden, most likely. ”

Sererheim's only five-star knight.

Faladin Eloden, closest to the Grand Master.

Five years ago, I thought of him in front of the Kingdom of Laderon, and the description of Keshmif followed.

“There are two additional 4-star paladins, and one of them is walking around here, so I'm guessing all four here are cardinals. ”

Cardinal Sererheim is comparable to the towers of the tower.

Of course, their combat abilities will be inferior to paladins, but their divine enchantments are nothing more than poison to the realms and armies.

“If the Holy Spirit of the Sun were here, it would be one of these four. ”

Isha mutters, pointing to the four lights.

Then Ferda twitches her eyebrows slightly.

"The Holy of the Sun. ’

The Son and the Daughter have a divine power that surpasses the cardinal.

Also, the Cardinal uses magic that is not dared to be used easily, and there is also holy magic that is only allowed to the Son and the Holy Girl. This means that we may be more difficult enemies in this war than Eloden.

‘I have the sacrament, so there's nothing to worry about. ’

Fortunately, Ferda has the heart of the sun.

But strangely, I felt embarrassed. It was an intuition that had saved him from so many crises, I couldn't easily overcome it.

“The location is clear, so it should be a good place to assassinate. ”

“Yes, and the Holy Land does not know the Eye of Argos exists. ”

Keshmif confronts Isha.

On the other hand, he frowned. It was because of the atmosphere that Ferda had to leave the assassination.

“Why not use this information to make a preliminary decision? Through the breach here, the teacher is more likely to assassinate. ”

“That's inefficient behavior. ”

So I made another offer, but it was rejected immediately.

Keshmif shakes his head and replies.

“Above all, their sacred barrier has become much stronger and stronger, just as we repair the walls. If you charge now, all the servants will vanish in vain, except for the clan with the rift. ”

“Then it's the same when they attack, isn't it? ”

“That's not true. because that sacred barrier, the other Sun, only exists in a fixed state. There are other ways to fight. ”

Isha's rebuttal made her deaf and dumb.

Then Ferda shrugs as if she had no choice.

“At the end of the day, it's the only way I'm getting out. ”

“But you really need to take the risk! ”

The clothespin grips Ferda's collar tightly.

Worrying eyes. Ferda grins as she faces him.

“That's okay, you know. ”

Ferda's gaze is towards Sererheim's flag.

A moment later, he mutters with a slow, furan smile.

“I have a problem with this kind of thing. ”

* * *

That night.

After all the preparations, Ferda heads to the west gate. The North Gate had a lot of Sererheim lookouts, so it could have been found out.

So I went out to the west gate, circling the surrounding forest and headed back to the headquarters of Serrhaim.

‘I remember the location. ’

Eloden does not move in the same position, and only four-star knights are busy. Those presumed to be Cardinals were also just standing still or wandering around.

‘The best thing to do is to wipe it out. ’

The odds were slim.

Even Eloden could win in a one-on-one situation, but that place is hostile. It is even the home of the infamous Holy Country Ser Ham. So this time, I planned to take a little extra time.

‘If you feel bad, at least get rid of all the cardinals. ’

If there's a Sun-god, let's take care of her.

That should give us an edge in our future battles.

As I rushed to walk thinking about the plans I had during the day, I felt a familiar posture near Seo Moon.

“Boss.”

It was Kalman.

Kalman turns the gray hood upside down and raises Ferda with a face of concern.

“Are you sure you want to go alone? ”

“Yeah, it's a lot easier this way. ”

As long as the enemy is an army of Sererheim, it is difficult to get help from him.

The same goes for all the other clans. We couldn't guarantee his safety to get him back. This opponent was at great risk.

So this time, I decided to move alone.

Meanwhile, Kalman's expression darkens in response to the refusal.

“I'm sorry, I wish I was stronger. ”

Kalman clenches his fist with a furious face.

Ferda strokes Kalman's head with a bloody smile.

“It's all right. Don't worry about me, I'm asking you to practice. ”

“· · · · · · · Yes, I understand. ”

Kalman bites his lip and nods.

Soon after that, I saw an unexpected figure as I was walking past Kalman. A young man with a big unihorn on his forehead. I called out his name as if to surprise him in his appearance.

“Merced?”

“The Lord has asked me to assist you. ”

Merced explains why he was here.

Probably thought it would be helpful to have an absolute immunity to divine power. But Ferda thought differently.

“Thank you, but I don't need your help. Go back to reality.”

“It won't be a setback. ”

“But I don't think it's going to help. ”

Merced's cold laughter does not rebuke him.

It was also because he had a hunch how strong Ferda was.

“And don't you think they could have sent an assassin back there? ”

“That's · · · · · · · · · · · ·. ”

“Your job is to keep it real. Ambush is enough for one man. ”

Mercedes has a special role to play.

For example, when he sent a powerful assassin from the Holy Land, he served as a guard against the nameless Cardinal in the face of the second disaster, five years ago.

So I couldn't take him.

Merced, too, drops his head as if he had finally counted Ferda's intentions.

“I see. Wish me luck. ”

Merced turns to the castle.

I tried to maximize my senses if there were others, but there was no way I could feel them anymore. Ferda covers herself with a mask and throws herself to the ground.

Pa!

There was nothing left to do with Ferda being alone.

I ran only in front of him, and I arrived at Sererheim's Garrison.

After confirming the position of the lookout on the lookout, he triggers the Hyde Walker, a skill that completely clears the way.

Since then, it has been fourteen thousand.

Through the watchtower, you made your way to the first and second perimeter.

‘The first target is · · · · · · · · ·. ’

Cardinals, of course.

When his eyes sank cold, he was about to move his steps.

The archaeological mastermind trembles once. After a while, the sword that erases its existence suddenly returns from Rundall.

[I can feel the spirit of the sword around me.]
