The wise man returns

“So that's why you came alone. ”

“Ah… yes. That's right."

Andropos simply said yes.

He was unmanned, so I couldn't just hand over Duke Abel's words.

However, I couldn't move because Valine instructed me to, but Leven gave me permission to go first.

‘I can't lose to him. Not then, not now. I have to show you that the results are the same. ’

That was the last thing Andropos saw of Leben behind his back.

Balin nods after hearing the story.

It appears that both Leven and Duke Abel are in a one-on-one battle.

If it weren't for Ja-koolka, I'd be relieved, but I couldn't just sit back and relax. Balin sped up even more. It was hard for Andropos to follow.

* * *

A giant black giant appeared in the Holy See, and the time to fall was approximately ten minutes.

However, the impact still hasn't left even after the giant's fall.

Two confused citizens.

That was the direction of the Duke of Abel.

Pa! Tar bla.

Valine walks through the mansion and over the fence, sweeping inward. In the middle of the garden, he glares at Reuben.

“Ah! ”

Andropos, who came up later, saw Reuben as well.

Over twenty meters from the perimeter fence to the center of the garden.

But that was not the case for both of them.

Balin opens his mouth as he goes down.

“Leven! Leven! Are you okay?"

“...!!! ”

The sliding head turns toward Balin, and fortunately, there are no significant scars on your face.

Balin approaches that side in one month, looking carefully at Leben's entire body.

Fortunately, there were no significant injuries to her body. It was like the first time I came up over the fence.

“... I don't see any other injuries, do you feel any pain? ”

“... No. Nothing.”

Leven nods, his head lowered.

I couldn't figure out what his face looked like on the barrel with the hair flowing down.

I checked that there were no other wounds when I first saw this face.

Balin said, raising his tone a little.

“Nothing happened? Are you sure?"

“... well, here. ”

Leven carefully pushes something out. A jewel the size of an apple that emits light. Dragonheart.

“This is the Dragonheart... you've had it all along. Then why?”

“... I was bludgeoned in the last fight, and I dodged it, and it stopped coming through. ”

“What?! ”

Dragonheart stitched into a spear. There are only three treasures in the world.

Balin hurriedly takes over the Dragonheart.

Obviously, the light on the surface was pretty dull.

It had now changed so much that it could brighten the night.

I don't know where the hole was pierced, but it seemed to have lost quite a bit of ether.

Leven adds one more thing to his apology.

“I'm sorry, Valine, I... I couldn't manage. I should have left it to the Andropos ball. ”

“No, it's...”

Examining the Dragon Heart, he says, tasting again.

Leven seems to have lost his grass, but in fact, it was more of a phone consolation situation.

Originally, the Dragon Hearts were filled with ether, and all they had to do was extract it.

But it's different now. One stitch in the spear and the ether disappeared to some extent.

The Dragonheart's epidermis, where the ether disappeared, could be carved with as many mana rays as possible.

There is a way to turn Dragon Heart, the birthplace of Heaven, into an artifact.

"An artifact made of dragonheart, this is the first thing I've ever done in my entire life. ’

Balin does not hide her real smile.

Leven is hopeful now anyway, so it's better to tell her that it's okay than hiding it from her.

Maybe if we leave it like this, he'll continue to be depressed that his work is ruined by you.

“It's okay. It's okay. I think things are gonna work out better because of you. ”

“... Yes? ”

I can feel Leven's head curled up.

Balin slowly said what he had in mind.

“So, Eun Gong will make artifacts out of this? ”

“Yes. Why not? ”

Andropos shakes his head at Balin's question.

“A thousand unjust words. Since it's a silver ball, I don't care what Silver says. And the walk, I think, is fine. Dragonheart's power is a power humans cannot dare to wield. So it's not bad to turn it into an artifact and take some of it out. ”

“Part of it...”

As soon as Balin heard all the answers, she laughed deeply.

I don't know about Andropos, but he was going to pull it all out, not part of it.

Powerful enough to seal the Demon King, the Divine Truth!

However, if you only know the principle, it is a sufficiently applicable force.

I was confident that I was already exploring the ether.

Balin carefully looks around.

No Able Duke, no Aether in the Air.

All that's left is Leven alone. In Balin's head, there is a question.

"If the Aether had leaked out of Dragonheart, I'm sure there would be residual air in the air." Why can't I feel anything? ’

I thought I'd listen to the situation first. Balin opens his mouth to Leven.

“Leven, how did that one-on-one fight go? You said you fought Duke Abel. ”

“Yes, I won consistently, and my chest was pierced by his last blow. I wasn't used to the strategy of giving flesh and taking bone... so I was drilled into it with Dragonheart, and while I was repairing it, Duke Abel ran away. ”

Leven sighs after finishing his speech. Meanwhile, Balin looks surprised.

I heard you took a blow to the chest, but you look fine for that.

Balin nods, thinking for a moment. Perhaps he healed his wounds with immense divine power as soon as he was humiliated.

Her body is now a report of infinite divinity.

If I wanted to, I wouldn't have had to regenerate several times faster than a Troll.

‘So he could still be alive after stabbing him in the chest. ’

Balin smiles lightly and asks the next question.

“So what happened to the ether coming out of here? ”

“That's... that's... I absorbed it. I'm sorry."

Balin's eyes widen in response.

It was a slightly unexpected answer, but it was not an option I did not completely understand.

The ether is a very precious energy. It was better for someone to absorb it all than it was for someone to spill it into the air.

Unless the target is an enemy. Fortunately, Leven had no enemies, so there was not much blame on Balin either.

Balin tries to clap his shoulders, saying he's fine.

At that moment, Leben's shoulders shrug, avoiding his hands. It wasn't a shoulder injury or anything.

“You okay?"

“Yes? Yes. It's okay, really. ”

Leven raises his head, puzzled with an answer.

I kept my head down so I couldn't see my face.

“You look a little tired, so get some rest at the Imperial Palace. You can go to the Holy See to restore some health. ”

“Well, I will. I'm so tired...”

When you're finished, Leven blows away. Andropos mutters as he looks at her as she moves away.

“Tired...? I can't slow down either. Eun-gong, I think he really wants to rest quickly. ”

“I guess so. ”

Balin flinches and turns his gaze.

Leven's reflexes are important, but there aren't a couple more pressing things to do right now.

The most important thing of all is scouting the remaining areas of the Imperial City.

Re-Hot is gone, but his men will still be in the Imperial family.

It started with making sure that the remains were eliminated.

‘Then we'll find out what dragon magic is, and we'll go back to Ruby Tower, retrieving artifacts and collecting corpses from Sil-Lenon... at least ten bodies.' ’

Balin sighs deeply.

It seemed that no matter how much work was done, it seemed to increase rather than decrease.

It felt like 40 years before the regression was compressed in a year after the regression.

I didn't even see the Demon King, and I didn't think he would overlook it. When I thought that, I came to my senses.

‘Your mission is too urgent, but sometimes it's okay to rest. I don't want to fall down trying everything at once. ’

Two of the ducs have been captured. At this rate, it was right to give yourself a break.

His life is still more than 60 years away. From now on, I didn't have to sweat to solve everything.

‘Relax, relax. When this is over, I'm going to the resort for a while. ’

Maybe you'll find a clue to class 9 through a break.

When the decision was made, Balin ordered Andropos to keep an eye on Ailan.

She's one of the Golden Blood Vampires. I had to look at the ideals that were worth using.

Meanwhile, Leven, who returned to the Imperial Palace first, walks dumbfounded.

When you don't see Balin, Leven looks up, looking down.

Revealed Leven's face is like a ripe tomato.

“Haaaa.”

It's not the only weird thing. While walking down the corridor, Leven exhibited all sorts of strange behaviors every hour.

It's either sighing like the ground is dying, or sometimes holding my cheeks with both hands.

Once or twice, I was naturally attracted to the attention.

“... something's fishy. Hey."

“Hey, lady. You don't know where you are? I don't know which nobleman is human, but I can't come in anymore. ”

I don't know if she's a substitute or not, just wearing a simple suit.

It was not hard to mislead people from there to strange behavior.

“... Hey. ”

“Yes, let's go. ”

Several guards feel anxious and close the streets.

The Horses have appeared twice. Of course, the boundaries were much heavier.

Shhh.

The blade of the spear reveals itself to Leven. The blue Mana permeates the spear, giving off a subtle glow.

Leven, surprised by the sound of his knife, raises his head. A spear knife is approaching me.

Even as a Grandmaster, I didn't notice at all. Leven scratches his cheek gently and says,

“I can prove who I am, but there's one thing I need. So, uh, could you step aside, please? ”

“Huh?"

The guards who were aiming at the spear nod in unison.

“Get out of my way, what are you talking about! ”

“Give me a little distance. I don't have anything else. ”

The guard commander raises his voice at the smile of Leven.

Blame it on me!

Well-trained guards flood the floor in unison. Up to a dozen of them each had skills above Expert Intermediate.

Of course, it was too easy for Leven. She smiles lightly and moves her body.

Blah, blah.

“Huh, huh? ”

The soldier waving his spear opens his mouth. The target is the girl who avoided all attacks with a strange gesture.

Not only that, she weaves the spears of soldiers slowly, as if dancing.

Wheeler, Wheeler. Mana's iron bars bend and tangle like an eagle.

The look on the soldiers' faces gradually fades like wax.
