Chapter. 14. One Empire, Three Legends (11)

“Where have you been?”
“Aww…. Something hurts a bit….”
The professor, who appeared from among the priests who had stepped aside like the miracle of Moses, wiped his face at the question.
“The grassland people think quickly and act quickly.”
“It has to be that way, right? These are people who fold their entire house and move when circumstances change. “There are only a limited number of places to raise sheep in the barren and dangerous pastures, so it must have become ingrained in them to move quickly to get a place before others.”
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu… That’s why we’re leaving right away with just one word…”

– Noru Drug: Fun, uh, see, huh?
– Jokass: February 17, 2058. Professor Park receives a notice to ‘come out and talk later.’
– DOOMgay: Hehehehe. What a difficult time for a clumsy guy like you. The world seems to be turning upside down.
– Unemployed: Hepburn is not clumsy. People are just a little pure.
– Noru Drug: ?
– Heungan Mandu: ?
– takealook: Pure????
– Soy Sauce Gay Bar: It probably has a different meaning than that of purity. Isn’t this what they meant by saying, “An animal has attached to the lips of a pure beast?”
– Unemployed: It’s true. Hepburn is a very gentle and soft person.
-Namba Three: Metal Joe? Are you still very sick, Bex?
– DOOMgay: Uh… sorry. I guess I haven’t recovered enough to live a social life yet. You keep saying strange nonsense.
– Unemployed: It’s true.
– Speed Wagon: The professor is a person with many strengths, but… I can’t agree with that much.
– Heungan Mandu: Okay, what happened to my rescue? Are you coming now? They actually knocked down two mountain peaks, right? Perhaps the nearby mutants were going crazy.
–
– DOOMgay: Oh no. Thanks to that landslide, all the plants in the neighborhood were crushed to death, so there was no need to go there. If you become a type 3 mutant, I will come catch you.
– Heungan Dumplings: sesame!!!!!
– takealook: I heard there is a lot of food. Just be okay.

When I looked at the chat room, I could only sigh. Seeing the kids come in, it looks like it’s dinner time outside. When I see such a friendly appearance, I feel like I want to go out, but when I imagine Dana’s frosty eyes, I think it might be okay to play a little slower…
[Oh my. What kind of memory is this? Ana…. My husband…. Oh, the sharp memory of the first kiss disappeared as I turned back the direction of my fate and took a step back…. The woman in the desert waits endlessly for her lover, but finds the embrace of another woman. My husband, who left, doesn’t say anything, so it’s literally your silence.]
‘Oh please.’
[It’s not a memory I brought with you? It’s a memory that sticks out like a thorn in your partner, a memory that you scoop up from deep within your heart every time there’s a mating issue.]
‘Ugh, the desert… I need to get there quickly too.’
Yakshasha. Real name, Ana.
Honestly, I never imagined I would have to worry like this. I spent my most youthful high school years on the battlefield, and after the war ended, I lived in a fight between everyone and everyone, but it was a political issue!
[What are you going to do? In addition to weakening the Named Mute, if we succeed in sending the nomads and providing support to the Empire and elves, the human forces will be strengthened to the point where we can form an attack force rather than a defense force. Then wouldn’t we be able to afford to go to the desert and receive support there?]
‘Ugh…. I don’t know! ‘Let’s think about it later!’
[There is no paradise where you run away. Remember, shell.]
The professor opened his eyes, swearing at his inner Hyde who was grinning. Let’s focus, because the next game is almost here. Master knights of the Marquis of Wildeland. We finally arrived at a stadium surrounded by watchtowers, right in front of the Colosseum.
Many, many, many, many, many-
Before I knew it, the carriage had been transformed into an eight-headed carriage for the semi-final host, and all the strange restrictions imposed on gladiatorial contestants had disappeared. A semi-final match that marks Khun Tagiz’s heyday. A battle where the only goal is to use all your strength and abilities to defeat your rivals and reach the Colosseum.
“I’m worried about the empire’s support.”
“me too. Even local nomadic tribes at the level of Toho attacked like that, risking the lives of their own tribe members, so I don’t know how much extravagant support the imperial family would provide. Since we have them, we don’t have to worry about black magic curses… but we should expect at least two knights of the Royal Guard with eye-popping equipment and all kinds of magic, blessings, and alchemy potion enhancements.”
Basically, you cannot use multiple types of buffs at the same time. Divinity is in opposition to magic, and the two forces that reject phenomena are in opposition to alchemy, which uses phenomena.
However – if you have the ‘Battle Potion’, the official religion of the Empire and the specialty of the Cult of Courage, this is a different story. This comprehensive buff potion, which only requires a washbasin, has buffs such as [Increased Agility] and [Increased Strength] that normally cancel each other out and reduce the effectiveness by half. Not only does it provide harmonious effects without any disadvantages, but it also has the wonderful effect of sorting out the positive effects received by the body and allowing them to settle in the body without any resistance.
In addition to its own [increased strength, agility, stamina, recovery, perception, and mental spell resistance], it also receives the water wizard’s [purification of water] buff and the fire wizard’s [fire property resistance], and the alchemist’s [Berserker-Control Disorder] Greatly strengthens combat power at the cost of Lv.5], [Lone Wolf – Combat ability increases as there are fewer allies on the battlefield], [Slime Essence – Resistance to blunt machine attacks], [Medusa Gaze – Focus on the enemy and overwhelm the enemy Lv. [Give 3] This means that the same extraordinary effects can be used evenly without mixing them together.
If you think of it as an RPG game, the buff limit is five, but that limit has been temporarily lifted to allow all types of buffs to be applied. Of course, if you stack 30 or 40 buffs like that, you will become a person with side effects later, but anyway, you can create the ultimate Royder superhuman right now.
Borka, who was sitting in the carriage and listening to my explanation, expressed concern as deep as the wrinkles between his eyebrows when he reached the support of the Courage Church.
“This is ridiculous. A holy water that gives you both striking resistance and slashing resistance in one body. Should we say that it is a religion that raises the battle itself as the banner of the religious order?…”
“Of course, as the divine power of Da-Karja, the God of Courage, grants a mysterious effect to the body, the side effects will be endless if used by someone other than a Paladin of Courage, so as I said before, ‘all attribute resistance, strength 50 times, agility 50 times They won’t make something like ‘Chinese God Royder Knight’. “They say there are limits depending on your beliefs.”
It is a holy water of the Courage Cult that is as precious as its effectiveness, but since it is called the state religion of the Empire, it is always lenient to the requests of the Empire’s high-ranking officials. If it was an important match where the battle for the throne was at stake, it could be said that this was taken care of.
“…If the situation arises, I will try to cover the outfield as much as possible. There were a lot of colorful banners hanging around the Colosseum. “If we raise a little dust and create a square with the cut banner…”
“Shall I take advantage of that opportunity and deal with it?”
“Of course, as a saint, your position is comfortable, but won’t it be difficult to move properly? “I’m looking at you with such envious eyes.”
“I guess so. No matter how broken-headed the believers of light are, if a person who is praised as a saint turns into a monster with two black eight heads and four arms, and the severed limbs pile up to the point where they can stumble, they will be tempted to convert right away.”
[You don’t know that. Because I don’t know how those fanatics will take it. Rather, there may be a story like ‘The Holy Son of Blood handed over his flesh and blood and said, ‘This is bread and this is wine,’ and he performed the miracle of feeding the entire starving village with just his arms and legs.’]
‘Loaves and fishes?’
Anyway, it was true that combat power was limited. You can’t get injured carelessly like you would when fighting a mute. The excuse that Haram miraculously came back to life should be enough to work. If his head was blown off and he survived, what would the onlookers think? It’s not a test of faith.
Borka’s words meant that people’s eyes would be covered for a while, so let’s break away from those restrictions and deal with it with all our might.
“Good? “Shall we plan a little more specifically?”
“As expected, how about destroying the entire stadium like last time? “If I cut down the large decoration leading from the central Colosseum to the arena while everyone was losing their senses and dust and stone dust were flying around…”
Dagdauk, dagdauk, dagdauk!
“Kiiik! Breaking news! trot! Benard Fang, Professor! Breaking news for you! Get out of the way, get out of the way!”
While Borka and I were making plans for the ‘knight who was attacked by a monster while I was looking away’, a goblin on a horse from the Colosseum (I couldn’t believe my eyes) came darting towards our carriage.
“Keheek, keheugh, hehe, hehe!”
“It seems like you came in quite a hurry. “What kind of news did you have to come here in such a hurry?”
“Next game, next game starts in 22 hours, tomorrow at noon! Go back and rest, gladiator!”
At the goblin’s sudden message, I, Borka, the audience and the priests gathered around the carriage all looked embarrassed.

“The game is suddenly postponed. “What is the reason?”
“Kiik! It’s not smoke! Cancel! The Marquis of Wildeland has declared his abstention! You win by default! The finals will be held at noon tomorrow at the Coliseum!”
“….what?”
Since I wasn’t expecting this in the slightest, I needed some time to think about what this meant.
It’s a competition where you can gain control of 1/8 of a city. You make it all the way to the semifinals and then withdraw? Just before the game, a competition that is the key and everything to the plan to absorb Haunuman, which the 2nd Prince has risked his life and death to pursue for a long time?
What did I do wrong?
.
.
.
.
There was silence in the room, and the people in the chat room, who were all in confusion, were raising their voices wondering where they had gone wrong.
“Oh, it’s ruined. “I’m ruined!”
What broke the silence was the scream of an ordinary man. After that, the arena, which was full of cheers and curses from those who had bet on the marquis, became a chaos, and the coachman, escorted by the Church of Gwangmyeong, rode through the chaotic streets toward the inn.
abstention. unearned win. And a letter, a note, delivered by the goblin from the arena so quickly and secretly that even Borka right next to him didn’t notice.
It was an upset in a speculative competition that had been proceeding smoothly, and it was like a signal that the hand of the empire that had permeated this year’s game was beginning to move in earnest.

Jump up!
The first floor of an inn where other guests were bitten at the request of the church. While Borka and I were clearing our throats with serious expressions, a group of people arrived through the chaotic crowd and gathered at our table.
“Hero. I’ll ask you straight. Is this something to celebrate? Or are things starting to go wrong again?”
“Lucille. “You always ask questions even though you know my answers.”
“Ahhh….!!! Yesterday, I just ordered a top-of-the-line Haunuman dress worth five chests of silver coins! Do you have time to take care of that?”
“When is it coming out?”
“tomorrow! The evening after the game ends! “I thought if I won, I would enjoy it until the next day!”
“…Let’s go to the capital and buy a new pair.”
“Aaaah#(*&$#@*&!!!!”
While Lucilla said goodbye to the tailor’s dress she had chosen after six hours of deliberation, the professor laid out the note the goblin had handed her on the table.
“They handed this along with the declaration of abstention.”
“That’s right… There’s no way a knight full of imperial pride would be scared of your game. “Something, what is that?”
“One is, as Master Aldrich expected, a message from the Empire.”
When the professor turned over the clean side of the two notes, a letter written in elegant handwriting with the seal of the Marquis of Wildeland was revealed.
“….and.”
“This is so… so amazing that it’s hard to express in words.”
The group couldn’t help but be impressed by the sender’s dignity revealed from the very beginning.
=========
If what you serve is the god of light, then the emperor is the god of this world. This is a ghostwritten letter from his direct line, the 2nd Prince. Therefore, I command you to humbly accept the words of the one you serve.
=========
“…Who changed it midway?”
“Even if it was a change, I don’t think it would have been this noticeable…”
The professor ended up rubbing his eyes at a sentence that would have made priests nauseous if they had read it because they could not understand it. The letter in front of him was indeed from the Marquis of Wildeland.
