I am the Monarch
< Chapter 29 Tail Baron >
------------------------------------
"Leming Ad!"
"MacGrum!"
Leming and McCrumb stood up without even knowing it.
'What? I think you're about the same age as me.......'
MacGrum swallows dry water while looking at Roan.
Something stabbed me in the chest.
'Big.'
The first time I saw Roan.
I did not have a big body, but the energy coming out of my body was great.
Even so, it wasn't like Roan was releasing an overwhelming amount of energy.
Magnificence flows from all over.
It was definitely majestic.
"How can you be at this age already......."
It wasn't just McCorm who was surprised.
'It's like a general who's been sweeping the battlefield for decades.'
Leming sticks his tongue out at Roan, who already smells the General's fur.
'Will he support us?'
Leaving pride and being objective, the Leno school was currently a degenerate school that was not worth sponsoring.
"Nice to meet you. Leming Adra......."
Roan reaches out his right hand and cautiously asks.
Leming grins awkwardly, holding hands.
"I'm not a nobleman. As the head of the academy, he only received a last name."
"I see."
After a slight nod, Roan shakes McCrumb's hand.
'This is the Macrum that blew up an entire small town.'
Talent was the best, but a genius born in the wrong era.
After empowering the two of you to take a seat, Roan sits in the opposite chair.
"I wonder why the distinguished wizards have come to see me."
That was the whole point.
Leming and McCrumb hesitated for a moment.
Especially after being rejected again and again by many people, Leming did not even look up.
In the end, it was McCrumb.
"I know it's a shame to barge in here like this... but can you sponsor my Leno school?" "
He blinks and looks at Roan's face.
Roan smiles softly and doesn't react much.
"Oh! Wait a minute."
MacGrum grins awkwardly and pulls the magic lamp out of his large bag.
Thung.
You place the lamp on the table, and a heavy voice rings.
Macrum glances at Roan and presses on the controller.
Pa!
Suddenly, a small basket appeared inside the lamp.
"Hmm."
Roan shed a low elasticity.
Even though it was bright in the reception room, a dazzling light came out around the lamp.
"This is a magic lamp that we made."
McCrumb opens his chest.
Leming, who was lowering his head, looked at the lamp with a straight face this time.
Roan rubs his fingertips against the lamp and asks in a bold voice.
"Are you using the stable stone?"
At that moment, McCrumb's face hardened.
'Ew. You recognized me at once.'
One stone for each lamp did not match resin.
The fact that I wanted to hide it to the end.
Of course, I didn't intend to retreat like this.
'It emphasizes the potential for the development of our school.'
McCrumb deliberately smiled as confidently as he could.
It was time for him to speak out.
"Well done, by the way. With this, people will no longer be afraid of the dark."
Roan nods with a satisfied expression.
"Well, yes!"
Leming stood up and shouted.
McCrumb stares at him in surprise.
Please watch your manners.
"Hmm."
McCrumb clears his throat and looks back at Roan.
"That's right. It's still early in development, so you only have to use one nail, but after researching it again, it can only be used with wheat grain size, or even horse stone debris......."
When the horse goes on like that.
"Very well."
Roan nods, smiling brightly.
"I'll back you up."
"Yes?"
Following the words of the Feast of Tabernacles, McCrumb asked with a surprised look.
Roan glances at the figure for a moment, then shakes his head.
"No, I don't think so….."
He whispered in a small voice.
"I'll build a steeple within the territory, so why don't you study it at all under the Baron's command?" "
"Are you with the Baron?"
McCrumb looks at Lemming, startled.
"Hmm."
Leming spills a low saliva.
Currently, there are 13 magical factions in the Rhine Kingdom.
The five most powerful academics were supported by the Kingdom.
The rest of the academics were researching under the patronage of nobles and other members of the force.
Most of them were independent researchers, though sponsored, and only a few academics belonged to noble families.
'All of them belong to the Duke.'
In a way, it was okay to think of it as a member of the kingdom.
"I belong to the baron......."
It was historically unprecedented.
I was deeply troubled.
Roan glances at him, then takes a step back.
"The future of the academic community must be difficult for you to decide. If so, I'll sponsor you first. See, hear, and feel the Baron Tail himself while researching here. We'll get back to that today."
At that point, Lemming and McCrumb gave each other a slight nod.
Honestly, it was a great condition for them.
The two head down toward Roan.
"Baron Tail. Thank you so much."
"When the results are good, I'll show you first."
Roan nods, smiling and smiling.
"Yes, I look forward to it."
The voice was bold.
But my heart was very pleased.
'Leno is the magic school I need.'
The combination of alchemists and technologists now, plus the Leno Academy, seemed to produce a tremendous result.
Above all.
'If you apply carefully, you won't see the tragedy of blowing up a city.'
I felt like I could prevent a big accident in the future.
Roan takes a deep breath.
The season was winter.
'Before spring comes, I must prepare what I need.'
Thinking about finishing what you can do before sowing the grain seeds.
In his mind was the bright future of the Baron Tail.
'The age of war was not far off.'
I saved Manus Persian and defeated Reytas Persian, but I cannot guarantee that an era of war will not unfold.
'Because so many things have happened in a complex mix.'
Three long years ahead.
If the age of war begins, it will begin in three years.
'At that time, the world changed greatly.......'
My heart was beating loudly.
'I will also change greatly.'
I vaguely thought that.
A bright light flashed in the brown eyes.
* * *
Thump! Thump! Kick!
The hammer sounds chaotic.
The sun rising overhead pushes away the cold of the winter.
Deng, Deng! Deng!
The bell rings in succession.
"Stop working! Stop working! It's shift time!"
"Let's all go eat snacks!"
The men who carry the stones, hammering and sawing the stones without rest scream, smiling brightly.
They took a thick loaf of bread and a warm tea and sat in a sunny space.
"Is that really what we built?"
A man gladly looks up at the high stone wall to the right.
The young man who had eaten a loaf of bread said in a loud voice.
"You can call it Mediacis Castle now, not Mediacis."
"Of course, of course. We're doing construction on the walls at the same time in Northwest and Southwest. What a castle now, Castle."
Another man confronts you.
Another man frowns.
"But don't you have to make a permanent one?"
"The Lord said we should build a wall first. We must prepare for the invasion of monsters and enemy forces."
"Still, it's a little awkward for the lord to live in a shabby building......."
A lot of people said that with a big smile.
"Our lord is a man who thinks about his people before he does."
"You said we were safer than our own homes."
"So let's quickly finish the Wall and build a magnificent territory."
The atmosphere was warm-hearted.
The young man who had cut the bread nodded and smiled brightly.
"I think we're really good at moving to Tail Land. They pay their wages separately for the work done in the territory, and they keep plenty of snacks there. It's a very hungry and difficult time right now, but thanks to our Lord, we are having a generous year. I'm really glad you're moving. Really."
He was originally from the baron of Elton Court.
Everyone around you nods.
It's been three months since Roan returned to the land.
The season was running toward spring after the middle of winter.
When food is scarce and difficult for the common people.
However, thanks to Roan's payment of fair wages through various works, Tail's residents were able to live a life unlike other locals.
Then.
Deng, Deng! Deng, Deng! Deng!
The bell rings frantically.
It was not an alternate bell.
Boooooo!
You hear the sound of the horn.
It was a sign of the appearance of monsters or hostiles.
But people didn't see any tremors.
"Looks like a monster has appeared, right?"
"Did you just hear the alarm at our gate? If we go west, we'll be hit by monsters."
"Which troops will advance this time?
Very relaxed and casual conversation.
They get up and head as fast as they can across the castle.
In the smooth pavement, there were originally many passers-by.
But now they step aside, as promised.
At the same time.
Two or two.
You hear the hoof echoing in the ground.
Immediately, a group of mounted men led the outpost from the end showed up.
A flag with leopard faces and symbols on it.
"Ah! Panthers."
"Looks like the Panthers are headed this time, Captain Thane."
You wave your hand at the troops that are marching bravely.
The reason that all the passers-by left the side.
They cleared the way for the troops to make their way.
"Waaaahhhh!"
"Crush the monsters!"
The children shouted with an excited expression.
Adults gladly looked at such children.
Phew! Phew!
The Panther Army blows a majestic horn in unison.
The men who came out of the construction site cut the bread and headed back to the vacant lot.
"Will it be okay this time?"
The young man cautiously asked, and all the men around him burst into laughter.
"Of course not. Just like before......."
"Defeating monsters vigorously......."
"I'll be back."
They look at each other alternately and then smile brightly.
When the young man saw it, he nodded.
"Yes, of course. The Tail Army….."
He looks to the west, where the Panthers march.
"It's the best."
* * *
Boom!
A boom erupted.
The ugly statue that you left on the other side of the small lake looks good.
Bang, bang! Boom!
There was an explosion.
Every time, a statue burst out.
The cloudy dust rises.
Pavat!
A young man was stirring it violently.
Every time, a blizzard arose.
The black spear moves like a dance.
Boom!
Once again, a statue is broken.
"Whew."
The young man breathed deeply.
The young man's face was revealed as the dust that had bloomed fluidly sank.
Roan.
The young man was Roan.
He bares his top and reveals his smooth muscles.
'Obviously, it's not easy to move underwater.'
Roan is currently working on spear training in a small lake south of Mediacis Village, or Mediacis Castle.
Choosing underwater training to make the movement a little bit sharper.
The results were pretty good.
I felt better without knowing the speed and balance of the moment.
Roan takes a deep breath.
The lungs became cool.
'The manas of the Dion Root were almost completely absorbed.'
Five Dion Roots as a gift from Simon.
Roan ingested all of the roots shortly after returning to Tail territory.
After three months of continuous training in the Flemish Mana method, all of Dion Root's Mana can be made into its own.
'Mana is growing in good faith.'
Now I was able to condense Manama blurrily.
Moreover, Manaroed's body was much harder and wider than before.
You spill a large amount of Mana at once, but it's not too much.
'The problem is how to create Fleps.......'
Roan bites his lower lip slightly.
Flebs' creation was much deeper than I expected.
In fact, there were many things that were hard for him to understand for Roan that had not only mastered practical spearing, but had not learned proper spearing.
In the first ten days, I did not pass three pages of the book of Creation.
'At least I was glad to have Brian.'
Roan asks Brian for help.
He was not ashamed to ask what he didn't know and ask for lessons.
Brian, who was working on the fundamental Mana method, helped Roan through time.
He was knowledgeable in various arts and arts, and taught Roan the basics and foundations of public service.
'The things that had been called practice spearing have actually been piled up on the sand.'
The building itself may have been spectacular and huge, but it could have collapsed entirely.
It was fortunate to be able to secure the basics and foundations even now.
"Whew."
Roan takes another deep breath and closes his eyes.
The water that sank below my waist gently wrapped around my legs.
'Comfortable.'
I felt good.
One of the reasons why Roan can't quit underwater training.
When I immersed my body in the water, my coarse Mana regained stability and relaxed my mind.
"I thought the Flamdor Manawa Act and the water were polar….."
Difficult to understand situations.
But now I didn't want to think about it that complicated.
I wanted to feel the molten flow that gently wrapped my whole body.
"Good……"
I felt better by myself.
Then.
[Hey.]
I heard a humming sound in my ears.
Roan frowns, his eyes closed.
What is it?
I thought I heard it wrong.
But...
[Hey, can't you hear me?]
I could hear a sharp voice in my ears.
[It's been months. How could the one who absorbed the Spirit King's tears not hear my voice?]
A grumbling noise.
Roan opens his eyes in surprise.
I looked around, but there was nothing to see.
"Did you hear wrong?"
A little whisper.
Suddenly, I heard a voice full of excitement.
[You can finally hear me!]
It was as if a decade old body weight had subsided.
