The wise man returns

Storms were brewing on the southern lands as Balin entered the treasure vault.

“... ”

Dark Round Table Conference Room. Looking at the two empty thrones, Hans closes his eyes in three pairs.

Three pairs! The heavy body is a strange pair.

Three heads, six arms. There are two legs, but they are unbelievable.

Even more surprising is the enormous amount of dark mana surrounding his body.

There was only one person in the world who had such a dense dark Mana except the Demon King.

“... Is it... confirmed?" ”

The three faces of Za-Koolka, the rich man of the Three Kingdoms, read with a gloomy look.

He has just received news of the warriors of the other two ducs.

The Horsemen reported that they thought they were going to die, but Za-Koolka sent the Horsemen away without a word.

We don't have enough power. I couldn't kill the best man there with my own hands.

Alone in the Round Table Conference Room, Ja-Kulka sighs deeply.

I didn't even think about it. All the ducs took it for granted to be alive until the day of resurrection.

He will, too. There is no one in the world who can beat them on their own now.

Sil-Lenon, Re-Hot. Both of them had more destructive power than the national class.

They did not come face to face with the human army. You didn't even give your enemies time to prepare, as it was just a ploy.

There could have been some variables. But I thought they could cover enough.

It has returned to its attachment. Za-Koolka sighs deeply at the consequences of his discomfort.

“True-Lennon hid his tracks after the storm, and Re-Hot quickly raided the Holy See and disappeared...”

It's a blow. It's also an involuntary blow.

Two of the three ducs have vanished. The army they led immediately was a matter of what to do first.

That's it. Humanity's next. And I had to prepare for the war against the Northtra Empire.

Za-Kulka felt pain in three heads at the same time as he thought he had to do it alone.

“Trouble.”

“Trouble.”

“Yes."

In one word, the two heads on either side of the bag came together. He slowly got up from his seat.

“We'll have to wait for the Demon King once this happens. Until then, all I can do is shrivel up like a dead man...”

Za-Kulka's eyes sank cold. After a while, he shakes his head.

“... No. No, you can't do that! ”

The Demon King's Seal is almost broken.

As we discussed with the ducs the other day, the seasons have been ripe.

All that remains is the best vessel for its power.

The Demon King is like a water tank. And the vessel becomes a medium for lowering dark Mana from the water tank.

Its power could flow infinitely if the dark Mana had a bowl.

It was the same principle as Layan of Light. If Rayan is the God of Light, it is natural that the Demon King is the God of Darkness.

The greater the ability of the recipient, the greater the power the vessel can handle.

The Demon King is at its peak. Of course, the selection of the bowl was only important.

“We should pick the best vessels to break the seals of the dragons... but not like this. ”

If we leave it like this, humans will eventually come towards us.

Then it's over. With the two ducs dead, no matter how ja-koolka flies, this place is still Mills.

Humans will manage the Demon King's Seal? It was as if the hope of the Horsemen had vanished forever.

“I guess I'll just have to wake him up...”

Ja-koolka got up from the conference room and headed somewhere.

The very heart of the Black Palace, where he reached, was a room filled with countless beads of light.

The room surrounds an infinite void thanks to space distortion. Hundreds of lights filled the space. That was all Dragonheart.

Ja-kulka, who was looking at the bright light, said.

“It's almost gone now. ”

As soon as the horse is finished, one of the remaining sources of light is shredded and disappeared.

One Dragonheart, who was suppressing his power, finally consumed all the ether.

However, there was still a lot of light left. If it is normal, the sealing period will end in a few decades or hundreds of years.

But Za-Koolka didn't want to wait until then.

“The Demon King, we're almost there. But inevitably."

After speaking, he pulls out a giant hammer. Rising at the same time is the field of his unique ability, distortion.

Ten times as powerful as a star strikes a radiant Dragon Heart.

Phew!!!

With an enormous surge, the Aether's resistance has hit Za-Kulka.

A strong repulsion that will tear your whole body apart. But Za-Koolka empowered again in the meantime.

Woof! Woof!

“Cough!”

At that moment, his three faces spilled black blood.

What he chose was to force the seal to be broken.

Originally, he decided to break the seal by force, which would be kept forever, either broken naturally or managed.

I couldn't wait until then. I had to free the Demon King even if it was incomplete.

I'm willing to give myself up if I don't have a bowl. Za-Kulka was that desperate.

“... Ugh!! ”

With a loud shout, the hammer strikes the Dragon Heart once more.

Ka 'Kan! The mighty resistance bounces him back once more.

* * *

“... It's dark. ”

Balin says a few words, walking around in a treasure chest.

The next moment, the Light Magic unfolded and illuminated. It's no wonder now.

The face revealed under the light shows an awkward expression.

I was asked to restore some of the damaged parts, but I had no idea where the breach was.

Nevertheless, it was also impossible to spread Mana and discover the terrain.

This is because the flow of Mana on the walls, floors, and ceilings here distorts the wavelength so that it cannot be detected.

“You can't detect Mana, and you don't have a map... You'll have to go around on your own eventually. ”

Of course, the treasure itself is not that complex a structure.

I had no reason to build a maze because there was no reason for the enemies to come here in the first place.

But the scale was also enormous, and it was like looking for a broken part of the sky.

I remember some of the artifacts, thanks to my previous experience.

But the only thing that's broken is the fact that I don't know where it is in the first place, so I just have to walk around on my own.

“But it's not like there's no way. There's always a loophole. ”

Balin said so and summoned the Spirit.

Pod!

The light happened several times. Soon, the small glass bead-sized figures filled the surroundings.

These wind spirits made of air were the breaches Valine found.

He gives the orders to the spirits and looms around the treasure chest.

“If there's any way out, find out where it is and come back to me. Oh, and if you find any other hot spots, ”

Spirits scattered abroad without an answer. But Valine was sure that they would understand.

Now it's their turn to find the flaw in the treasure chest. In the meantime, Balin walked to the place she had looked at in her past life.

Rare.

Everywhere in the treasure chest was a solid metal door. Originally, it would have to be sealed tightly, but now the system is too simple to open.

“Since I said ten, let's start with artifacts and people. ”

Balin reads, opening the treasure chest door by door.

Rrrrrrrrrr!!

Gold and silver that had been sealed for a long time were poured into the hallway every time.

After at least a thousand years, they were still radiant.

Every one of them is an expensive jewel, but Balin turns his head to you without a doubt.

There was plenty of money. It's not that you don't know the value of gold and silver, but something far more important is at hand.

“Let's classify first. ”

Balin classified people in need of artifacts into three categories:

The first is a fighter who needs direct reinforcement.

People who need to defeat the Demon Prince's officers! They intend to individually select artifacts that will help them in combat.

Half the people belong here, Balin. Leven, Andropos, Palias and Sonya are roughly five.

Secondly, the creators, such as artifacts and potions, are among those who help in combat by creating the essentials.

There can only be one Valine and one Elijah in this category! Her unique abilities were that rare.

Naturally, the artifact of empowerment is of no use to them.

"Since Elia's talent is artificial craftsmanship, I hope she has an artifact far more powerful than a magician. Mana and then the ether can be made into lines..."

As Valine ponders, she smiles bloody.

I wasn't sure if Elias could handle the Aether for the rest of his life.

Even if it wasn't, I wanted to find something that would help.

The last category is the Supporter. Similar to producers, but they help people through politics and military forces in the background.

It may not be much, but given the importance of strategy, they are the ones who will pay the most attention.

Among these classifications are Evelyn, Earl Minarva and Alberto.

I could put Eilan in if I wanted to, but Valine had no intention of doing so.

A Class S artifact to vampires! Reasonably, even though the need is acknowledged, the body instinctively rejects and drinks it.

“... I'll think about it when I have room. ”

The cold muttering Balin moves slowly.

Almost all of the best artifacts he's looking for are on the bottom floor.

I didn't have time to hesitate about treasure or other artifacts.

Blame. Blame.

Without the trap, it was quick to get to the bottom floor.

On his way down, Balin looks at the two empty grooves and laughs helplessly.

“The Dragonhearts were here, Pope... braver than I thought. I want to compliment you. ”

As you pass the empty groove, you'll soon see other doors.

Unlike the above artifacts, they are stored individually.

That means that each one is sealed separately. It probably took me a long time to solve these.

After a moment of deliberation, Valine takes a step towards her artifact.

The Sky Key that you used in your previous life. I wanted to reunite with him first.

I was just about to open the stone chamber door. You feel a spirit rushing behind your back.

“... faster than I thought. You found a hole already? ”

Balin looks surprised.

The presence of a Spirit indicates the presence of a site of damage.

No matter how much it was solved, considering the width of the treasure chest, it was a tremendous speed.

“Okay, let's go there. I need to see what the magic seal of the treasure chest looks like. ”

Balin, who lightly warmed up, reacted violently in front of him.

Woof! Woof!

“... What, I found it and now I'm leaving? ”

Woohoo! Woohoo!

The spirit does nothing to stop it, but it rushes towards Balin.

A spirit that plagues Balin like a frenzied fly! No matter how hard I tried, it was a floating point.

“Oh, you have a temper. You're summoned... I'm leaving...”

Balin's new brother, who was moving slowly, suddenly stopped.

Then there was one more thing I asked the spirits to do.

The other intruder, the one who told us to come back if we ever found him popular.

‘... No way?! Intruders here!! ’

Balin's complexion is hard.

The strongest was the lowest level of treasure, but even the upper floors were full of powerful artifacts.

There is nothing here other than a Class S artifact. It means that the world can be shaken if one goes out carelessly.

What's even worse is that the intruder is working for the vampires or the Demon King's army.

If they came in, they had to be eliminated. Balin quickly starts to move behind the spirit's guide.
