Private Awakened During The War

“Ugh...”

“Are you awake? ”

“Huh? Lucan! ”

As you get up from your seat with your dizzy head on, you see the furry old man, Lucan, standing in front of you.

“Haha, you can just call me Lucan. ”

“You've saved a lot of people in the past, and you have to respect that. ”

When he smiles and says with a happy smile, he bursts out a cool smile and gestures to follow.

“Let's go inside and talk. ”

“Yes.”

As I followed him into the forge, the hot heat welcomed me first, and led me to the room where he had talked to me once.

“Yes, it's been a long time. ”

“Sorry. I should have come more often, but I was more busy than I thought...”

“I don't blame you. It's just a pleasure to have a visitor for a long time. ”

“It's been a long time since I've seen you. How have you been, Mr. Lucan? ”

Sitting on a wooden chair, he takes out the story and points to the hammer on his waist.

“Well, what else is there to do here? Rather, I wonder how you've been. If you don't mind, I'd like to hear the story outside. ”

“If Lucan wants to hear it, of course he can. Hmm... First I have to tell you about my visit to the Strait of Antigas. ”

“Hoho... Have you been to Antigua? ”

I wanted to get right to the point, but I couldn't help but welcome the day I came to see Lucan's eyes and unravel the story one by one.

“I was...”

He applauded the fact that I had come from Antigua to meet the Master, and he comforted me and listened to me to tell me that a precious person had died on the battlefield.

It's been a while since we've had such a crazy conversation.

“So the organization that I taught...”

“Garon? Garon... I think I've heard of him... I don't remember much. Can you hear more about him? ”

“Yes? Oh, of course. ”

Lucan tilted his head as if it were strange to say Garon. As he asked, let's talk about Garon in considerable detail.

Pair!

Suddenly, Lucan stands up applauding.

“Garon! You mean High Priest Garon! Why-why did I forget that? ”

“Do you know about Lord Lucan? ”

“Of course! None of the heroes of the past, including myself, have not received the grace of Garonne. One way or another, he raised heroes. ”

“Yes?”

Well, Lucan was also a great man in the past, so I thought I'd get to know Garon, but I never heard of him raising heroes on his own.

So Garon has gathered heroes for the Great War from a very distant past?

‘You didn't hear much about him, then. I just heard you need heroes for the Great War. ’

Either Garon avoided explaining the story, or I didn't know why.

What was certain was that I didn't know at the time, but now that I think about it, I feel strange.

"Would it help if the gods were heroes in the Great War? ’

Even if it helps, it has to be the elders of Astia.

Then why is Garon gathering heroes? Maybe there's another purpose? And if that's true, there's a good chance Reflexa is, too.

“Hey."

“Ah! Yes. ”

“Is that why you met Garon? ”

“Yes, that's where he is. I'm a little bit indebted. ”

“Huh... What a pity. You weren't always a man of your destiny. I can't believe I didn't find the missing Lucan's teeth for centuries and come to see me. ”

“It's a coincidence. Somehow...”

Avoiding Lukan's gaze of awkwardness, he grabs my hand. Wrapped in blistering fur.

“Please help the High Priest. He does a lot for the continent of Unicia. ”

“There's nothing I can do to help... I understand. But is it true that Lord Garon raised heroes from the past? ”

“Of course. Have you ever heard of theater? ”

“Yes? I... I'm the Master of Orleans. ”

Asking the master if he knows how to perform is like asking the blacksmith if he knows how to handle fire.

He scratches his back head in embarrassment as he looks at Lucan with a puzzling question.

“Hmmm. Garonne was the first person to invent the method. And it was he who created the grimoire for humans to use. ”

“… this is a bit surprising. I thought it was made by humans, of course. ”

“In fact, you've given a lot more technology than that to humans. He's a great man. ”

I acknowledge this part.

If what Lucan says is true, he is a dragon, not a man who can be thanked by Humans for his entire life. His propagated technology allowed him to lead the continent without being defeated by monsters.

But the question on the other hand is,

‘Then why is it that the Garonne has no strong Astian elder? Did I just not see it? ’

If what he says is true, then there must be a great level of error craftsmanship and sorcery in the organization he teaches. It's been hundreds of years since he first built them.

But even with such high-level technology, there are only masters, six-circle wizards.

“Lucan, I don't doubt... No, I doubt it. Is it true that Garon actually created the Crafting Law and the Grimoire? ”

“Huh! Of course! I swear on my name for that part. ”

“Then why... ha...”

It must have taken some time to explain to him from the beginning about the Garonne organization.

Given his frustrated head that he couldn't get an answer right away, he looked at me with an impression.

“What's wrong with you? ”

“I... I don't know what to tell you. If you don't understand, I'll just tell you. ”

“Don't worry, tell me. ”

“If Garon had invented the art of craftsmanship, wouldn't it be hundreds of years ago now that you've invented the art of craftsmanship? But I know...”

“What are you talking about? I don't understand why Lord Garon would make such an excellent craftsmanship. ”

“Yes?”

Do you know what you just said?

He laughs as he stares at Lukan, who says things that don't add up.

“Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii! ”

“… What's the matter? ”

“I'm just having fun. So, what do you think, Lord Garonne, is why he hasn't made a better craftsmanship in centuries? ”

“Yes… that's right. ”

“So I can't laugh. Lord Garon just made me a basic craftsmanship and grimoire. After that, it was purely humankind who developed them. ”

“Ah!”

Yeah, why didn't I think of that?

That's the Garon I saw in the records.

‘He was in a way a dragon with the same logic as the player system. ’

I give them an opportunity, but I don't force them. I give them the right to choose, but I don't reward them if they don't try.

He just gave the humans a chance to be strong. And humans have been sharpening and polishing for centuries, choosing without missing that opportunity.

“… I understand what you mean. ”

“Klael, I'm glad you've solved your question. So, is Mr. Garon still working for the continent? ”

“That's... that's hard for me to say. Things have been pretty different since Lucan came in with his teeth. ”

“Huh... What the hell is going on? I'd love to meet him in person if I had the chance. ”

Looking at Lukan's sad, half-naked eyes, you realize it's time to get to the point.

“M-Lucan. Let's talk... ”

“Hmm? Ah! So there's a reason you came to see me. I was going to ask you to do something, but that's good. ”

“Please? What kind of favor? ”

“It's nothing. I'm just... trying to end it now. Speaking of which, can you help me out a little bit? ”

“Yes? What exactly does that mean? ”

“I'm going to stop living my life. If you help me do that, I'll give you all the artifacts in the Storage. They're made of real materials, so you can take them with you. ”

Let's just look at him with words like "kill him."

Countless emotions were projected into his eyes, such as loneliness, bitterness, loneliness, sadness, and regret.

‘Well... it's great to have survived for hundreds of years. I would have given up my life a long time ago. ’

Occasionally, I spend more than 300 years alone, with the exception of a very occasional guest like me.

It's a long, long time to be sorry even to imagine what he's going through. Therefore, it makes sense that he doesn't need to ask why he suddenly wants to give up his life. But...

“So you...”

“I can't help you. ”

“Hmm? No, I can't do this anymore...”

“Have you forgotten? That Lucan said he would work for me. ”

“Huh... That's what I was talking about when I went out. If you've searched for the Ventian Jewel, you know, but finding it now is almost impossible... ”

I smiled at Lukan, who had a sad look on his face to persuade me.

Probably the meanest, meanest smile I've ever had in my life.

“If it's a Ventian jewel...”

I put my hand in the pocket of the waist dance and turned around, and I held a jewel in my hand that felt cold. Take the jewels out of your pocket with your hands and put them in front of Lucan's eyes.

“This is... this is crazy. I really... I really want the Ventian Jewel...”

“Here you go. So you have to keep your promise. I can't watch Lucan die before the contract is complete. ”

If people are too surprised, what will they look like?

Now that I see Lukan's face, I wonder if that's what he looks like.

Seeing his two incredibly large eyes and his face filled with horror, I could not help but smile.

“I never thought I'd... see a Ventia jewel again. ”

Lucan reaches out to touch the Ventia gem, but he's either too surprised to hold it, or he's too shaken to hold it.

“Yes, it's not a fake, it's a real Ventian gem. I was worried I wouldn't be able to bring it because it's a creature, but thank God. ”

“How... How did you find this? ”

“I didn't find it. Lukan found it. ”

“… What do you mean? ”

“The progeny of the Lucan. Kasha, Zecain, Rohen. Your progeny, these three fathers, have found the jewel of Ventia. And it was delivered to me through those three. ”

In fact, I didn't want to talk about it. You'd better go out there and see them and hear them.

But seeing Lukan so surprised changed my mind.

Let's surprise him more. And let him know that it wasn't wrong to wait hundreds of years.

Your descendants have been searching the world for Benthian gems and Lucan's teeth for centuries, so stop hanging out with me.

“So Lucan must build a dimensional key. And you're going to have to come out with me and meet them. Lucan's descendants. ”

“Haha... Haha... Thank you. I don't know what to say... ”

I tapped Lukan on the shoulder, making sure he was moved.

“I'll take a thank you outside. But there are artifacts that can be used outside the warehouse...? ”

Now all that's left is to wait for the dimensional key to be made and rip out everything you can from him.

And the first of them is to take the artifacts from the warehouse that he mentioned and go outside.
