Snow, Nora, Charles.

They were the ones that Frey brought. I treated only the minimum number of people I needed to move in secret, but I was able to bring more.

Nevertheless, there are two reasons for bringing only these three.

Individual strength and knife-like coolness. At least those who are here need a sense of dignity that will not spare a soul.

In that sense, all three were accepted.

“That's inconclusive. ”

Snow murmurs with an angry face, as usual.

These are the midwives of the circle. Straw Necklace is not the only one.

Other tributary circles, as well as elves belonging to Hirald Garden in the past.

Snow's eyes turned to the elf. I couldn't believe there was such a spoiled man among my people.

“Do you know what you're going to do? ”

“Khh, uhh. ”

The elf steps back without answering.

Yeah, I don't think so. You know, there's no way you're doing this crazy thing.

Handing over the core information in your circles to Demigod is no different from completely destroying your circles.

The biggest reason the circle has survived so far is in secrecy. There is no multiplication in all-out war, so it hides itself thoroughly.

Decades of art are scattered throughout the continent, and key executives, including circle masters and rounders, do not stay in specific locations for long periods of time.

However, Rezil Wirseman is aware of most of the key information in such tri-state circles. The location of the art in each circle, the regularity of the route of travel of the executives who cannot be caught.

When all that information passes, it's over. At least half of the circle's power will be cut off.

Charles's anger was also less than snow.

In particular, shortly after she identified some of the executives of the Pisfinder Amritt, her face became as cold as an ice field.

“Yeah. Rotten sometimes. ”

Charles knew the corruption of the circles better than anyone. I'm one of the longest working members of the circle.

The intentions put forward at the time of its creation were spoiled, and the group smelled disgusting like rotten pus. From the time I joined, spoilage was already underway.

At that time, I turned my eyes to the fact that there was nothing I could do because I was a circle member with no influence. After that, he told himself that corruption had already reached a level that he could not do, and that it was too late.

Then I was really late. It is now an unstoppable problem.

I was not confident in facing it. So I turned my eyes. But in the end, it was a meaningless act. Closing my eyes wasn't hiding. It was just to turn away.

“Too late.”

It was too late.

However, even now, I will do my best.

“ · · · · · ·. ”

Frey and Rezil did not move face to face.

I got cold sweat on Rezil's chin line. Now I get it.

Manna fluctuates around Frey, and can only be seen from the excavation.

‘I can't win. ’

This man has achieved a ninth star, which is the name of every sorcerer.

Unlike a half-price like yourself. He took one more step.

Only one of those footprints split the gap.

The dark red light that Frey shot. Now I know what it is.

“Is that how you deal with Absolute? ”

Frey nods.

“It's not just the ability to create fields. ”

“Uh-huh. It would be useless if any of that power had its origins in Mana. It's like an absolute death sentence. ”

Implementation of Mana that can only be used by those who have reached the 8th grade.

An app root field that can only be used by people who are 9 Star Early.

The next landmark was the dark red light that Frey showed.

It condenses the absolute space and projects it into the energy body. In simple words, Rezil did not even imagine what principle he applied that power to.

No, you won't be able to use it even if you know how.

“You said that demigad is not absolute. That's right. In fact, I remember defeating Demigod in the history of the circles. ”

“ · · · · · ·. ”

“But there is only one absolute existence. ”

Frey knew who Rezil was talking about.

Boldly put his name in his mouth.

“Rod.”

“I thought the genius of tax evasion was our brother. I thought a genius like that wouldn't come out in a hundred years, but you're overwhelming him in pure capacity. So I want to ask. Tell me honestly.Are you sure you want to beat Rod? ”

“ · · · · · ·. ”

Frey didn't answer with all his heart.

“You can't beat Rod anymore, Wizard. Do you understand what I'm saying? A gap, once again, exists between demigads and rods. If he was willing to do that, the continent would be at an end. ”

Very few people know the power of Rod in the circle. Even those who know it are thoroughly questioned and never spread it.

It breaks my heart just by realizing the edge of power. You lose the will to confront and you lose your sense of helplessness.

That's why Rod's powers were confidential.

“I said at the meeting. Now that we've destroyed Geotan Fire and the Talhadun, demigad is a brutal massacre. That's right. They slaughter. No, even a massacre is cute in front of them. There will be nothing but demigades that have killed tens of thousands of people by the power of the gods throughout history. ”

Rezil said with a low smile.

“So I'm afraid. What if Rod feels we have no hope? What can we do when he tries to dry up the seed of life on the continent? ”

“Is that why you want to be enslaved? Are you begging me to spare my life because humans are useful? ”

“What's so bad about that!! ”

Rezil roared like a lion. He stares at Frey with his bloody eyes.

“Is it wrong to beg for your life? Why don't you and your brother understand this simple thing? One thing. You just have to throw away one thing. ”

Frey also knows what it is.

“Pride. What would you call a creature who abandoned it. ”

Frey's voice also burst with heat.

Now I know what Rezil has in mind. Yes, to be honest ─ I understand. I didn't understand what grievances he had and why he came to this extreme conclusion.

Once upon a time there were those who bowed their heads to Demigad and went in. After all, it's scary. The power that Demigad has, the limit that the Immortal has.

He probably didn't do his best to subdue the Nose Dog. Apocalypse is a demagogue that Rod especially thinks deeply. You didn't want Rod to get angry with him for his death.

However, it was not convincing.

“Livestock. Do you understand? I'm going to be a livestock. They will be slowly tamed by the food they give them, and at the end they will be deprived of the right to think for themselves. Is that what you want? ”

“· · · · · You, you haven't seen Rod, so you can make that sound. ”

Rezil said so.

That was a very grave mistake.

“I know. About Rod.”

“What?”

“Because I lost. He's the one who lost the fight. I know better than anyone on the continent about his overwhelming power. ”

Rezil's eyes shake violently. He looks at Frey with a confused face.

“Who the hell are you? ”

Frey was silent for a moment.

“Lucas.”

“ · · · · · ·!! ”

Rezil's eyes widened.

He squirms and looks at Frey with unbelievable eyes.

“Well. But · · · · · he · · · ·. ”

“I was missing. He fought Rod and was defeated. He was locked up for 4,000 years. In a space where only the mind is wealthy. It was a good thing the accident was allowed. Thanks to you, I was able to keep thinking. How to escape there, and then on foot. ”

What the hell are you talking about?

Lucas?

‘Is this man calling himself the Cannabis Lucas Trowman now? ’

No arrogant wizard in history has ever considered himself a cannabis.

Because the deeper I knew the rhetoric, the more I felt stubborn.

About Lucas Trowman's achievements.

How great he is.

How much you take in rhetoric.

And you call yourself Lucas Trowman, not even a cannabis?

"Ah."

At that moment, Rezil was shocked as if he had been hammered in the back.

Frey's attitude, the reason he asked himself why he deserved it, the anger he saw at the time.

And because I was so young that I was able to build a 9-star landscape.

It didn't make sense, but each one followed a line to the points that were scattered.

Yeah, that's what it was.

“Ha, ha, ha. ”

4000 years.

You survived all those long years?

In a human spirit?

And you don't give up?

“How can you do that? ”

Rezil took a step back. He saw no more anger. But I was embarrassed.

“How to Replace · · · · · ·. ”

Rezil smashes his ass in the back step. What's it got?

“Ah.”

It was Simone's body. He was sympathetic to his will.

No, I'm not.

The body of Straw Necklace's Circle Rounder, who was incited by himself.

Rezil looks up at Frey.

“I · · · · ”

I learned the existence of Demigod.

I learned magic.

Recognized for his talent.

I came into the circle.

And I saw the teacher.

Master of the circle before his brother Cairo.

He was like a god to Rezil. The teacher was a wizard of the 9th Star. Rezil was not as frightened as Demygad was when he was a teacher.

Strong powers of Master and Straw Necklace.

I thought if only they could drive demigads out of the continent at any time.

Such a teacher died. I lost my life to Rod. Not even a fight was established. I couldn't even sneeze.

The circles commended him for his death and for his bravery.

But Rezil knows. Teacher's death is just dog death.

The sky collapsed.

He was succeeded by his brother, Cairo Wierseman.

Rezil sometimes asked his brother.

“Can we beat Rod? ”

The answer didn't come back.

I just needed reassurance. I liked the empty words. It would have been just one word.

We can win. You can defeat the rod. I would have been able to dispel the anxiety if I had just said that word.

But no one answered.

Those who don't know anything say what they want. Demigod is nothing, he can kill Rod.

Isn't that comforting? I haven't seen it, so I can say it. If Rod had suffered as much force as his nails, he would not have dared to take it out of his mouth.

Ignorant people.

But Rezil was more pathetic than that. He was a coward.

What he wanted was to nod his head while being fully aware of Rod's power.

Someone with a perfect 9-star landmark.

If that person answered with confidence · · · · ·.

“Why, now. ”

A split voice came out.

Why are you here now? If you've come a little bit sooner.

I wish I could, too.

“Ugh!”

At that moment, the spirit was awakened as if cold water had been obtained.

He looks down at his face.

‘Rezil Wirseman. This garbage.’

What kind of bullshit did you just say?

I woke up stumbling.

There were corpses piled around. Those who listened to themselves and followed them, those who were incited.

All of them eventually became thin carcasses. They were looking at themselves empty-eyed. Bleeding.

“Uh-huh. ”

So Rezil laughed. Rather, I looked at Frey with a smile.

What you need to pursue the extreme. Root. In other words, a floating mind.

It's probably about belief.

‘It was a hard lesson for you. The advice of a cannabis.’

Rezil realized his luck late, but everything was already late.

He looks at Frey with a calm face.

“I don't think I'm wrong. ”

“ · · · · · ·. ”

“Humans can't beat demigads. If we go like this, we'll lose. So I'm not going to bend my will. ”

Frey's face changed.

I looked into Rezil's eyes. I see what kind of end he wants.

Is there a reason for corruption? He would have been a young wizard who had been furious with Demigod at first.

But realising the reality, being frustrated, eventually compromised. It was a pity to have chosen the worst compromise.

What is more unfortunate is that past wrongs do not disappear.

No matter how sorry you are, no matter how remorseful or repentant you are, you cannot reverse what you have done once.

‘Everything is what I did. ’

Neither did he interfere with the demigod subjugation, nor did he drive thousands of people to their limbs, nor did he try to bear the sacrifices of the continent, nor did he steal information from the circles and bring it to Rod.

It's disgusting enough to make a vomit.

So I'm not going to reflect. I won't regret it.

Because those who sympathize with themselves, and end up dead, see themselves as empty-eyed.

“We are incompatible. Frey Blake. You should think about the purpose of coming here. ”

“I won't.”

The dark red light is once again in Frey's hands.

“You won't die comfortably. ”

“That's what I want. ”

Glug

Rezil shed a tear. And I saw Frey Blake.

The light bursts out, and it slowly approaches. The scene looked very slow.

So I realized.

Frey lied. The dark red light was aiming for precisely the glare.

“Hugh.”

If you do this, there will be no pain.

“It was an honor to meet you. Cannabis.”

Frey said he was a livestock, called a man without pride.

Now I know what that means. Sometimes pride takes precedence over life.

There are times when the flesh must protect the soul even if it dies.

‘I'll imitate you. ’

I will defend my last pride.

It was his last pride to die as a human scum, not a human, not a livestock.

Rezil's gaze touched Frey just before the light touched him.

At that moment, I thought sincerely.

You're wrong.

I hope he's right.
