What is it?

Shepherd was embarrassed.

In Fray's words, he felt somewhat misunderstood. Nevertheless, he did not completely cast aside his doubts, and thought that the initiative of the dialogue rested with him.

That was a very important point.

Suddenly, the flow changed.

At the time of his mouth about Demigad, the boundaries of his face were washed away. There was a small smile in his mouth. Of course, that smile disappeared faster than it did when it appeared.

“Keep talking. ”

“Do you know demigad? ”

If you don't know, that reaction doesn't explain it.

Frey nods.

“A little.”

“How?”

“When I got these earrings, there was a note by Schuhaizer. ”

Shepherd was surprised at what he said.

“Shue, is that Schuhaizer's note? Do you still have it? ”

“Well, first of all, I'd like to keep listening to the story of the lord. ”

“ · · · · · ·. ”

Shepherd had no choice but to acknowledge that he had taken the initiative. He swallowed the drool and spoke.

“· · · · good. Demigod. Transcendent beings. I don't know exactly how many of them exist and how much power they can exert. However, the ease revealed by the tip of the iceberg is not strong enough to dominate the entire continent. ”

I'm sure it's a minority. Frey knows that their number does not exceed a hundred.

However, each one of them is powerful enough to be said to be a disaster.

“We don't know how they exist, what their purpose is, and why they don't show up openly. But there are certain things I know. ”

Shepherd's eyes sank.

“You can destroy every race except yourself with a simple whim. · · · · · and that there have been at least a few such attempts. ”

I knew the most important thing.

“Four thousand years ago, there were five heroes who fought against them. ”

Shepherd put their names in his mouth.

Cannibals, sages, Madomu kings, swordsmen, black witches.

“But after Lucas' disappearance, their relationship was cracked. The quarrel between King Madomu and the Sword Defender, the disappearance of the Black Witch, and the Great Prophet fought alone, but it was not enough. The moment the most powerful traitors who resisted Demigad disappeared from history. ”

Shepherd said so and pointed to his tattoo. Madototattoos glow as lightly as they do in response.

“Our Circle is the organization that has succeeded in maintaining them. ”

I didn't know I was going to put my successor in danger. Frey doubtfully asked.

“Is the circle the name of the organization? ”

“That's what they all call it, but it's actually more complicated. As long as the years went by, the will of the circles didn't come together. ”

“There are many circles? ”

“That's right. We're even holding each other back. ”

Frey lost what he had to say. It was ridiculous. What are you doing in a courtyard where the odds are slim even if you pull all the power together?

Shepherd sighs as he notices the color.

“There are large and small circles, but there are three of the biggest in the current situation. Straw neckles, pisfinder armlets, and Lucid Sword. ”

“ · · · · · ·. ”

Somewhere familiar name. That was like the names of the clubs at the Westroad Academy.

Besides that, there are doubts.

Two names are missing.

“I don't know much about other circles, but I hear Trowman Rings is not doing very well. There's also a rumor that it's about to collapse. A while ago, a circle master died, and half of the executives moved on to another circle. ”

“What about the picture of King Madomu? ”

“The royal right of photography is being passed on as a one-on-one victory, but the successor of the time has yet to be revealed. We're looking for the whereabouts, but we're ducking. ”

“What is your relationship with the club at the Academy? ”

Shepherd smiled.

“The majority of club members will not know who we are, but we know their faces. Circles are always plagued. If anyone reveals their angle at the club, we'll approach them first. ”

“Was it necessary to make the name the same? ”

“It looks like a simple pile, but it works just fine. There are actually groups of similar names all over the continent, and I've seen them often. I don't know where Demigod's eyes and ears are. ”

I spoke boldly, but I felt impatient. If demigads get a little misunderstanding, their lives will vanish more than worms. While aware of that, Shepherd's expression remains unchanged.

“As I just said, the circles are holding each other back. Just over a decade ago, it was a dictionary, not a triple war. Together with Trowman Rings. ”

After saying that, I see Frey with a slightly complicated eye.

“So I wondered. You have Typhoon's earrings, so I thought you were a figure of Trowman Rings. ”

When I heard the story, it was natural to misunderstand.

Apart from that, Frey had his tongue full. It's certainly good news that there's a group against Demigad.

However, it is not good that their powers are not united in one place. Because demigads are not good enough to do with decentralized power.

“I've told you everything you can say. It's your turn. That earring, did you get it from the Ispania Mountains? ”

“Yes.”

“Mmm. ”

Shepherd is silent. Frey guesses from his attitude.

“Did you know? ”

“Rumor has it that there's a good chance there's a relic of heroes. However, none of those who had gone there had been able to return had been counted, nor had they been harvested. ”

It is natural.

Frey knew that there was a dungeon in Drake Mountain's volcano lake, but the others didn't.

It takes a lot of time to search for more than a hundred normal mountains, but the Ispanian Mountains were a place called Monster Heaven.

If you weren't lucky enough to follow me, it would be normal not to find the dungeon, and even if you did, Torkunta would have been waiting.

Frey pondered for a moment and asked.

“Typhoon's earrings are Lucas' legacy. If I get this, will I become a Trowman Rings? ”

“Not really. ”

“Then why did you misunderstand me as your own? ”

“Because I'm kicking so hard. Most of them have a strong sense of belonging to their own circles. ”

Frey looks at Shepherd's tattoo. Then he smiled proudly.

“I admire the contemporary Shuhaiser more than anyone else in the world. ”

'Congratulations, Schuhaizer.'

Frey sends his heartfelt congratulations to his already dead friend.

‘Circle. We found them, so we don't have to go back to the Academy. ’

In the first place, the purpose of the Academy was to approximate how the world was going, and to capture the identity of the Academy's director, Series Triznine.

And Shepherd knows the answer to that, doesn't he?

“Triznine Series. Her skills at Westroad Academy were far superior to those of the last generation. Is she in a circle, too? ”

“I'm going to be an executive member of Pisfinder Armet. I don't know any more. ”

I even found out who Siris is. I really have no reason to go to the academy.

I think Frey was trying to clear up his thoughts.

I felt Shepherd still looking at himself with suspicious eyes.

“Do you have anything more to say? ”

“I'm just wondering what you're going to say. I'll tell you before.I still don't trust you completely. ”

Frey's suspicious gaze slowly opened Shepherd's mouth.

“First of all, I want you to show me one thing. Try those Typhoon earrings. ”

You want me to use barrier magic? Fray wondered about Shepherd's intentions, but he followed them purely because they were not very difficult.

Ueung

Barrier magic was expressed. Then I felt a noticeable disappearance of the light of doubt from Shepherd's eyes.

“Whoo. Yeah. Not the worst. ”

“What do you mean? ”

“It wasn't just because I suspected you and was wary of Trowman Rings. There's a bigger reason than that. ”

Frey glances at him quietly without rushing. Shepherd's mouth slowly opened.

“Isaka Blake. ”

It's the name of Frey's father. Why does that name come out of nowhere? After a thorough look at Frey's reactions, Shepherd said:

“At the end of the horse tower meeting a month ago, I heard that he was in contact with Demigad. ”

1.

That evening, the banquet began.

In the capital, the restraints of the nobility of the highest nostrils were involved, and the finest liquor and foods fueled the atmosphere of the banquet hall. Frey shot a bunch of cool, pathetic people in the eye, but he was also dressed to make the least of his pretexts.

I had a lot to think about.

I finally found the ones I wanted. Those who call themselves circles were the organizations that Frey was looking for.

However, the situation is not good. It was especially true that they could not be united and were divided into several parts. Apart from that, it is not the only problem.

Preparation of Anastasia.

Fully digesting Frozen River.

I don't know what a circle is.

How trustworthy is Shepherd?

And even the news of Isaiah Blake.

“ · · · · · ·. ”

Shepherd does not yet fully trust himself. No, I rather doubt it.

There is one reason. It is because of Isaka's deeds.

At the same time, I got one more piece of information. The snuffers of Demigad know that the legacies of heroes cannot be used.

That's why when he used Typhoon's earrings, Shepherd was vigilant, leaving little doubt.

'I'd rather not take out the sage's staff.'

It is the same staff as the symbol of Schuhaizer. It will react completely differently than Typhoon's earrings. You don't have to take it out and complicate things.

Frey shook his head. These were all unworthy issues. It's ridiculous to solve it all at once. Just like loosening a tangled thread, you have to advance one step at a time.

Fray thought the most pressing problem with the double was to make Frozen River's power fully his own. At the same time, I want to recover the body that became Manshin Chang.

I saw someone walking this way looking for a way to solve these two things at the same time.

It was Sonya. She was wearing a white dress, very good with her hair.

“Frey, there you are. ”

Probably went around the banquet hall looking for Frey. Sonia is a foreigner, so there will be no acquaintance. Feran, the protagonist of the banquet, will reveal himself when the atmosphere is at its highest.

“Are you in? ”

“Yes.”

“I see.”

Frey tries to reconsider, but Sonya shows a tingling tingle without leaving.

“Sonya.”

“Uh, huh? ”

When her name is called, she glances at it. Frey said while doubting her attitude.

“Do you have something to say? ”

“ · · · · · ·. ”

“ · · · · · ·? ”

“It's nothing. ”

Then the grass shook its head with a dead hue. Frey gave her wine because she wanted to get thirsty, but she shook her head.

‘So what happened to the engagement? ’

I thought about it for a while, but it was easy to ask. And honestly, I wasn't so curious.

Frey was about to go into meditation again, but I saw a fat man staring at him. The man's clothes were swollen as if they were about to burst, and his face was covered with grease.

The moment the eyes met, the man approached this way.

“Frey. Frey, right? ”

“What about you?”

“Haha! What is it? Are you taking the shishishimi off now? Huh?”

Frey recalls his memories for a moment. From the attitude, it is clear that ‘Frey' is the acquaintance.

‘I don't think I met him at the academy. ’

It was a moment to go back a little further. The mouth of the man who came as big as me twisted hideously.

“Long time no see. Blake's fallen. ”

Frey stops going against his memory. It was because I didn't have to.

This one wasn't approached in a good way.
