I Became the First Prince

107. 33. Left, Forgotten, and Returned (3)

Dong is dead.

The darkness that found the winter castle during the night disappeared with the dawn. But as much as that trace remained.

There were bodies everywhere.

Soldiers of Winter Castle gather corpses. If his limbs are torn, he heaps them up in the quarry before the gates, as if they were torn, as if they were burned with fire.

And I lit it.

The corpses of the warriors, who had been buried under the snow without being recovered for hundreds of years, were burned with macabre smoke.

No one opened their mouth. The rangers and knights just watched him quietly.

I also stood on the wall with them and saw the bodies burn. I saw 400 years of dispersion in it.

The fire didn't go out until sunset.

* *

“There are wounded, but no warriors have come out. ”

The warrior did not miraculously show whether the knights had been actively involved in the battle from the beginning. Perhaps the body of the undead trapped in the frozen carcass was dull.

Because of this, there were only a large number of soldiers wounded by the Undead and their nails, and no one died.

“Take good care of the soldiers. ”

“Don't worry.”

After reporting, Vincent did not leave his post. I noticed something to say.

“Why."

Vincent hesitated for a long time.

“It's too late, but congratulations. ”

“What?”

“Aren't you the youngest Sword Master in the kingdom? ”

Vincent said with a smile.

Even late, it was a late celebration.

In the meantime, it wasn't a good time to greet and celebrate.

He smiled and said, "Go back to rest," but Vincent seemed to have something to say.

“And I'm sorry. ”

But Vincent has been apologizing.

“I will never forget what you sacrificed, Balahard. ”

A face full of regrets, I could not understand English.

“I'm going to be strong. I'm going to be strong, I'm going to be strong. Never let His Majesty carry the burden alone again. ”

I kept my mouth shut again to ask why.

Vincent's expression reveals my commitment.

Whatever the reason, I didn't want to ruin that determination.

So I just told him I'd look forward to it.

Vincent leaves and High Rich comes.

I told her the last of the Death Nights.

“There's something I haven't done yet. ”

“All the duties that were conferred upon them 400 years ago are over. There's no way there's anything left to do. ”

“Don't be impatient. It's something they'll know when they say it. ”

I was unconsciously persuaded by what she said.

The knights who had not forgotten their upright heart even though they were dead could not do anything to harm the kingdom for three days.

Only thing I was worried about was Gurwain and the Knight Cadets.

I saw the missing ghosts seeping into their bodies.

“Don't worry, it won't do you much harm unless they force you to. They just needed a place to sleep for a while. ”

If it's Gurwayne and the Cadets, the Death Nights would be a pretty good fit for a break.

Blind loyalty to the king, and the same Mana Hart. The wavelength of the soul and the energy in the body were all the same.

“I see.”

I parted with her and grabbed a drink.

I didn't like alcohol, but I think I need to drink a little today.

400 years ago, I emptied my glass in memory of soldiers and knights crucified in Mount Surrey.

And I emptied the cup again in remembrance of the spirits of Balahad, who had barely been able to have a funeral.

“For the loyal knights. ”

Last but not least, I offered another drink to the loyal knights who were only for the king.

Three days have passed since the battle against the dead.

“There is a terrible rumor in the castle. ”

“Whether you've seen a ghost or a shadow hidden in the dark. ”

It seems that the wounds of the dead were deep.

When you see what a childish rumor has spread, even though it is a tale among powerful men who have never backed off against monsters.

“It is not strange to see a ghost howling before your eyes and dead bodies resurrected. But this will also be forgotten over time. ”

Even this vain talk will come to an end in time.

I thought so.

Walk around the sunset castle the next day until you encounter them.

I tried to drive Ophelia out because it interfered with her concentration as usual.

Just a few days ago, I felt depressed, and I walked around the castle without a place.

An ambitious night, a time when no one is awake but the novice. Somehow the corner of the fort was noisy.

Crumb, crumb.

Wag 'zac, Wag 'zac.

I followed the sound of disturbance in my ears, and the kitchen appeared.

"Hmm?"

There were familiar faces.

Gurwayne and the Cadets.

I felt like I was in the market until late at night, and I thought so and tried to turn around again, and the guyways and cadets found me and bowed their heads.

“Eat what you used to eat. ”

I swung my hand and turned around. Then it hardened as it was.

I turned around again.

Three of the men who were grinding down the kitchen's tableware stopped eating and looked at me.

“Would you like some? ”

The snowy giant wayne threw a chunk of blood into his mouth and asked me.

Common greetings, none of which were said to be special.

If they weren't from a secret royal knight who couldn't eat me.

These are men who have taken the sword with hatred and grudge against me.

After going to the royal palace, I did not explicitly oppose me as before, but that did not mean that my relationship improved enough to show examples by bowing my head first.

Those men spoke to me first.

It was strange and incomprehensible.

So I asked them.

"Who are you?"

Guywain naturally replied to my question.

“How can you not recognise your suits? ”

I laughed fluffy.

That giant Wayne is in my hands, and the passing dog will laugh.

“Don't bullshit me. ”

In my words, Guerwain and his men exchanged their eyes.

At that time, strange waves caught my senses.

The transmission of a will incomprehensible to the human senses, it was certainly the wavelength of thought.

Somehow I knew who they were.

“Reveal your identity. ”

“What are you talking about...”

I was accustomed to the tone and expression of Guerwain, who took off Shichimi.

“Eusna.”

In response to my question, Death Knight, Eus, who wore the Gewwain's Tall, was flawless.

I turned my head more when I spoke to him.

There was a man who closed his eyes and a man who looked at me with an awkward face.

“Ecchion and Edar. ”

Scaredly before the end of the speech, the ideological repercussions began to be irrelevant.

I told you not to.

What are you talking about? When you say the map is good.

It's a parcel. It's a parcel.

It looks really agitated.

I can't see the thoughts flowing all the way to me.

Turtle.

I think it would be better to just pretend not to know.

Or do you lie down and run away?

I've seen it all and now it means something. It is also impossible to overcome the ignorance and horror he saw that day.

You don't even have a sword. There's three of us. There's a knife.

A knife for meat is a knife.

The choreographer they were sharing came into my ear.

I shouted because the silent mockery will be the mockery of the extermination of the murder.

“Who are you hitting? ”

Did you hear?

I think I heard.

“Shut up, because you heard me! ”

The thought of giving and receiving from the three brothers of Echion ceased.

Looking at the three men looking at me with their awkward faces, I put my forehead on.

Now I remember.

Reaching the end of the abyss, the Ecchions were among the royal knights and the most hopeful of the future.

Because they were the youngest knights in the Knights.

At the time when the three brothers were killed in Mount Suri, Echion was twenty-nine, Eus nineteen, and Edar eighteen.

Apart from his skills, he was old enough to make trouble.

Yeah. It was pretty rotten back then because of them.

Late in the past, I said, looking at the giant wayne rolling over his eyeballs.

“Ehus. You encouraged me. ”

In the old days, the driver was always too cheerful, and secondly, Eus.

“No, I'm not.”

Hearing the excuses of Eus, I thought it would not be necessary.

For loyal knights, the horn is a bitch.

I wrapped my head around a bunch of unchanging accidents.

* *

I was unfair because I wanted to sleep quietly.

Guerwain, so Guerwain's body, has rejected his excuses.

I couldn't stand it because I looked like I didn't know what to do. I wanted to enjoy things I couldn't enjoy without my body.

"Is that all you eat? ”

Somehow, I couldn't stand appetite. It's ridiculous, but it's a serious problem for us.

Contrary to what Eus said, I did not think their desires were at all amusing.

I could understand everything.

I was also the first to enjoy the human body.

At that time, it was worth being human.

Even though they did not fully remember it, they would not have been less so if they had added more appetite than I, since they had been dead for a long time.

I have not completely taken away my body, nor have I lost my life.

It's not like you're biting someone else's body and filling their stomach.

It's just a short stroll through the night while the owner of the body is asleep.

“Let the master of the body refrain himself from a line that does not harm him. ”

I assure you, I never did anything to harm the owner of my body.

In case we lost our energy, I also gave you a squirt.

But do you really understand?

There was nothing to understand and say. From now on, who's the tree in the yard that's taking over someone else's body?

If they don't understand, they'll behave as I say.

I shake my head.

It can't be.

I gave the right line to the troublemakers.

“An hour a day. Just so others don't know. ”

He laughed at them with a more fluffy smile as he nodded his head.

“But he's in the middle of three days. ”

But for now, I have a status.

Eus answered me quickly.

“It's good to have a wife so fast. ”

In my words, Gigi San Eus spoke in a subtle tone.

And when our existence benefits them too, it won't hurt.

Manas who can't use this friend's body are scattered. I've never seen it before, but there's fragments and fragments all over my body. It must have been pretty painful to turn the Mana around.

It won't be possible in a short time, but if you hold the ball for a long time, you won't feel any more pain every time you accumulate. And if you're lucky, you can absorb all that energy.

Isn't that enough for ransom?

I was hardened by the spirit of the Three Brothers.

I thought I knew what the fragments of Mana were that they were talking about.

Until many years ago, it was clear that the Mana of the broken ring had been lost because of the circumference of this body.

In other words, the energy corresponding to the three rings melted in the bodies of the giantwaynes and the cadets.

I saw the Ecchion Three brothers.

But it's a big mistake to use the flesh of the living. I'll pay attention...

“No.”

I cut the story of Ecchion in the middle, bowing my head like a sinner.

“There's nothing to worry about. It crosses the line, but it doesn't work. Do as you're told. ”

Seeing the three brothers of Ecchion, he added a word.

“And it would be better to allow others to absorb the fragments of Mana that spread in the body of the electrolyte knights. ”

It seemed that the knights who had become obliterated could find the Old Testament sooner than expected.

I got a laugh.

Not the mistakes I made, but the jealousy I had to bear in the end,

I have a way to make up for that karma, but I don't think I can laugh.

Even though they won't be able to make up for the time they've been living like scrapies.

Are you sure you want to close your eyes?

“I'll pretend I don't know. ”

It's not my body, it's not the sun.

There was no reason to miss the opportunity.

* *

Three more days passed after meeting with the three Ecchion brothers who roamed every night.

I finished preparing to leave the castle, leading only a handful of knights who followed me to the royal palace.

Winter Castle's tribulation has passed, and the King's trial is over.

All that was left now was to finish the calculations that were mirrored.

I ran without a break.

Then I finally arrived at the royal palace, and I immediately found the king.

The King welcomed me with a firm face.

“I'm here for the price of the treaty. ”

Seeing such a king, I smiled with pleasure.
