Possessing Nothing

357.85. Gold Tower (2)

Lloyd escorts the group to the reception. The steeple was empty, but the reception room was spotless. There was a cup of tea ready or for the number of people.

“There's still time until the Spirit Queen arrives. ”

Lloyd sits in a chair and says,

“Her spirit wanders through the gaps in space, looking for an exit. Unfortunately, there's nothing we can do about her now. ”

“With the magic of Gries? ”

“Gris is not the book of the Universe. It's the wrong thing to do. ”

Lloyd pulls Gries out of the inside of the robe, an old outer covering book.

“It is true that the Queen of Spirits is coming. It's hard to know the exact time, but she'll be coming to the forest soon enough to fall asleep. ”

“…… Ten years ago, Abel wanted to change the fate of the end by connecting the spiritual system with the world. Different ways, but hasn't the spirit system eroded this world and changed its fate? ”

“You haven't changed. ”

Lloyd sighs and says:

“It's not a complete connection, it's a compulsory erosion and an invasion. This kind of phenomenon doesn't change the fate of the end of the world. ”

Lee was a little disappointed in that. Maybe, I was hoping for a coincidence.

Perhaps the fate of this world was not that easy to escape.

“What happened to the other spirit kings? ”

Lloyd places his hand on Gries. He doesn't hesitate to unleash his magic on Gries.

“…… The Spirit King of Water and Earth hasn't arrived yet. But soon. If you're thinking of the streets, it's best to move now and attack them as soon as they arrive to summon them. ”

“What about the Spirit King of Flame? ”

“…… The Spirit King of Flame……. ”

Lloyd closes his eyes. To find out the existence of the Spirit of Flame King through Gries.

It wasn't that hard. Tracking things that don't exist in this world, that shouldn't exist.

Lloyd's eyebrows, which were concentrating on his mind for a moment, flinched.

“…… extinction? ”

Lloyd raises his voice in disquiet. Rubia, who was in Lee Sung-min's arms, came out surprised.

“Yes? Disappearance? ”

“If I'm not mistaken... I'm sure. There's a trace of the Spirit of Flame King coming, but it's gone clean. ”

“Weren't you summoned? ”

“No. I feel differently than when the Spirit King of the Wind was summoned." This... is complete annihilation. ”

“No way...... that can't be... ”

Rubia mutters in disbelief. Even though the Queen of Spirits may not be the ones who rule the Four Age Spirits, they are not the ones who transcend.

But they were as distant from death as transcendents. Especially if it is not a spiritual system, it is almost impossible to exterminate the Spirit King or other spirits.

“Spirits return to the Spirit System when they are hit by a fatal blow. That's... unconditional... ”

“Is this Weijihoyen?”

Seong-min paused for a moment and asked. Making the impossible possible. In this situation, all I could think about was Ji Ho-yeon.

“No.”

He asked the question with some confidence, but Lloyd denied it to the extent that the person who asked the question felt uncomfortable. Lloyd frowns as he touches Gries.

“Wijihoyun...... I can't even feel her presence as Gries. A blessing surrounds her several layers. ”

Magician.

“Maybe she's already in the world. Maybe she's drifting through space like the Queen of Spirits. ”

“If it can't be detected...... It might be Wiji Hoyen who defeated the Spirit of Flame King, right?" ”

“That's not true. I felt who knocked it down. ”

I can't believe it. Lloyd mutters in a small voice.

“…… when I first met you. I succeeded in discovering the dungeon he played during a long time in pursuit of Prescan, the Black Horseman of the War. I was sure I could kill Preskan there.... ”

No way, Lee Sung-min realized who Lloyd said she was.

“Chimera……. ”

“Do you know? Well, that explains a lot. Yes, the chimera that Prescan built defeated the Spirit of Flame King. ”

Lee Sung-min felt a chill on his back.

It's me.

Lee Sung-min remembered her name for a long time.

Eine and I have been in conflict so far, and each time, she didn't have a chance to kill Eine.

And the last time I saw her was when I went with the tetrarch to meet Geniella. Lee swallowed a gulp thinking of Aine who had been pierced by dozens of songs.

“…… where is she now? ”

“Are you going after her? ”

“When you can kill it, you have to kill it. The possibility of Eine is dangerous. ”

“I wouldn't recommend it much. ”

Lloyd frowned and said.

“There's a vampire queen by her side. It's not just Quinn. There are a lot of vampires out there. Are you still going? ”

Lloyd's words blocked Lee's words.

“It works?”

Gemini looks a little surprised and shouts her resilience. She stands with her arms crossed and smiles, and her twin brothers, Chen and Kun, stand face down behind her.

“Oh, oh... oh... ”

A little distance from the vampires. Preskan, in a robe, sits shivering.

It was a joyous excitement that shook him. He could not believe what he had just seen.

One of the Four Legion Spirit Kings.

The spirit king of flames, especially fierce and powerful, collapsed just moments ago. It was neither summoned nor extinct.

I got eaten.

That's all I had to say. Prescan recalls the marvelous work his creature has done and felt his beating heart as if it were not beating.

If Rich was an undead who was a little more familiar with emotional expression, Prescan was confident to make the happiest smile in the world using all his tears and facial muscles.

“How the hell did he make a chimera like that? ”

Gemini grimaces and grimaces at Janiella. At that, Jennifer smiles and replies.

“Coincidence.”

That's all I had to say. According to his ability to be a Black Wizard, Prescan is no better than Acrych Arbes.

Of course, they say the magic field that was authentic is different. Arbes, who admired Eine, tried to sweep up Preskan and make the same chimera in the same way, but she was unsuccessful.

So it's a coincidence. It was definitely created through the same process, but it was impossible to rebuild the same chimera as Eine.

“…… coincidence……. ”

Gemini mutters in a small voice and sees Aine standing in the middle of the crater.

A moment ago, Eine defeated the Spirit of Flame King there. A Fire Spirit King who wields lava like it will ripen with just the sight of it.

Though I fought just before coming, I didn't receive the help of another Fire Spirit. The Fermoud Volcano was a restless lava boiling place where the Spirit of Flame King had no shortage of power.

It was not overwhelming.

But it was Aine who survived to the end and ate the Spirit of Flame King.

She clutches her boiling belly in the middle of the crater. After 10 years, she hardly grows.

She still looked like a little girl. Eine refused to grow as she was not complaining about her appearance.

“Isn't it spreading too far? ”

Gemini says she's desperate for Janiella.

“You ate the Spirit King of Flame. That chimera will use the Spirit King's Flame all she wants from now on. Can you handle it? ”

“Are you asking me if I can handle it? ”

Xeniella laughs at Gemini, who quietly asks.

“And then, Jamie. I want that chimera to be strong enough that I'll never be able to handle. After 10 years of hard work, I couldn't find a decent meal. But there's plenty to eat now. ”

As she speaks, she points her finger at Eine.

“Still not enough. I can't get enough of it. ”

“And the other Spirit King? ”

“That might be difficult. ”

It was for a realistic reason. It will take some time to get from here to the other spots in the Femoud volcano.

Even though Xeniella and her clan were strong and superior, they couldn't do anything on the streets.

“We won't be able to make it in time for the fall, and we'll probably be subdued by the time we arrive. There's a fairy horse there. ”

It was Lee Sung-min who was conscious. You cannot compete with a fairy that leaps over space at speed. That wasn't the only problem.

“This is the last time, right? ”

“Yes.”

In Gemini's question, she nods slightly. She lost her future 10 years ago.

This is the last future Jennifer saw before she lost her future. Picking up a picturesque white sogo in the snow.

And then, the Spirit of Flame descends from the femur volcano. She could no longer see the future, but this was clear.

“So far, it's been my wish. ”

The end of the future I saw.

Even though the future of carnage is closed. She's not desperate.

So far, it has been what Jennifer saw and hoped for. The last one just changed a little bit.

And she liked the future that changed like this. Rather than come a genocide where no one knows who it is, like this...... he makes a genocide with his own hands.

It was so much fun that it was sagging. Especially after centuries of being trapped in the northernmost of Travia, Jennifera has been enjoying the present reality.

“... Phew! ”

Aine walks out of the crater. After devouring the Spirit of Flame King, she held a mysterious power inside her body that was nothing compared to the power of the Spirit King before he fought.

Prescan was impressed and approached Aine. Jennifer turns to look at them.

“Let's go.”

“Where are you going? Are you going back to Travier? ”

“No.”

Xeniella laughs.

* * *

Quinn.

With Geniella, Lee Sung-min had no choice but to give up on going after Eine. She's not alone.

If she and her family are together, it would be suicide to fight with the power that Lee Sung-min now has.

Even if we bring everyone in the Fairy Forest, we can't be sure we're going to win.

‘Though there are no attendants or Lycanslopes. ’

You can't do that. No, rather this is an opportunity in a different sense.

Lee Sung-min touched the cup of tea and thought.

Xeniella, the vampires, and Eine are in the Femoud volcano. It's not that far north from Travia.

In other words, it means that now is the right time to cut off the limbs of Zeniela who is isolated.

‘Hematoma.’

Lee Sung-min remembered a hematoma he had never met. A second bloodline that Geniella has sent out to rule the bloodline.

‘Nero.’

A conqueror's henchman who rules over Cephed.

Who should I hit first?
