Helmut: The Forsaken Child Chapter 254

Helmut

Episode 254

‘A decision for Linosa.’

Magritte was born as an aristocrat and grew up as an aristocrat.

Have those words, which I followed without difficulty except once, ever felt so heavy?

Magritte, who had been lost in thought for a while after Michael’s visit, opened his eyes that had been closed heavily.

I can guess how Michael found out that fact.

In the Archduke’s study, there is a journal in which important events occurring in Rinosa are recorded. It was a journal written by the Archduke himself.

Now that the Archduke is absent, it is Michael who is taking control of Rinosa.

It wouldn’t have been difficult for Michael to get information out of there.

All Michael had to do was find a record of that day 15 years ago there.

“… … I am.”

Magritte sighed.

She knew it too. If Michael noticed, the high priests could also notice.

If Levina shows interest in Helmut again, how long will Magritte be and what excuse will he be able to stop it?

Michael could have revealed that fact to the ministers at any time.

Although he is said to have received treatment from the High Priest, the Archduke has also lost much of his energy. He has not recovered his mind yet.

It is impossible to confront the temple in this situation.

That was not the choice for the Grand Duchess of Rinosa to make.

But she was also human. She is a weak and shaken human being.

Magritte’s worries deepened.

I probably won’t be able to sleep tonight.

*

When I opened my eyes, what I saw was a familiar ceiling.

This air is familiar.

Helmut blinked. It looks like he brought him back to the place where he stayed before.

It was quiet everywhere.

“hmm.”

Helmut, who was about to get up immediately, frowned.

My whole body was achy and I had no strength. It was as if he had completely exhausted himself and recovered enough to open his eyes.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been pushed to my limits like this.

However, I was in a much better condition than when I had just left the Forest of Pahe.

‘It looks like the situation has been resolved safely.’

I was overcome with anxiety as I lost my mind in a place where I had no one to trust.

However, seeing as they were moved to the lodgings like this, it would have been no problem. All I had to do was be alive.

Helmut checked his physical condition. I look inside myself as if contemplating.

The sprout of darkness grew again. The series of processes of using and spewing out demonic energy was enough to grow the sprouts of darkness.

However, it bothered me that the guy who always made his presence known by wriggling like a fetus in its mother’s womb was subtly quiet. As if in hibernation.

Is it because he also used dragons to survive?

Helmut stopped worrying and suddenly looked down at his arm. There was someone who came to mind first.

‘Is Area still there?’

His girlfriend probably doesn’t even know that Helmut almost died.

Well, she wouldn’t have expected that Helmut, who was fine, would be facing the danger of death. It happened in such a short period of time.

‘What on earth are you doing?’

I didn’t feel like criticizing again. Area was originally that kind of girl. Research addicted wizard.

‘No, I want to criticize.’

Helmut changed his mind. However, it was also true that he could not think of anything else to criticize Area.

Because his body was not moving properly, Helmut was sitting on his back with only his upper body raised.

How long did you let go of your sword? In my heart, I wanted to head to the training center right away.

The clothes have been changed cleanly. I just didn’t know where his cloak and sword went.

Sweet. Soon the door opened and closed, and the sound of footsteps running somewhere was heard.

After a while, someone came into the room with a knock.

Just by hearing the sound of footsteps, Helmut knew who the opponent was. Helmut immediately looked up.

“mother.”

Blue eyes full of worry were staring at him. His face had become noticeably thinner over the past few days.

But her expression as she looked at Helmut was calm and kind. Just like her mother’s.

“Don’t get up. The congressman said that both his bones and muscles were damaged due to the collision with Vis. “It seemed to have good recovery, so I didn’t call a separate healing wizard.”

“How long has it been?”

“It’s three days.”

‘I guess I wasn’t down for as long as I thought.’

Although it was brief, my instincts must have judged that it was a state in which I could be awakened from unconsciousness.

Helmut asked another question.

“What about Charlotte?”

“It’s okay. I’m in treatment. Just then, someone came from the temple. Thanks to that, I will be able to get over this difficult time and my life will not be in trouble. “They said it would take some time to recover, but I would be healthy as if nothing had happened.”

“At the temple… … People?”

Helmut instinctively examined his mother’s complexion. His guard went up.

Mother shook her head.

“They didn’t see you.”

Those words seemed to be true. Only then did Helmut relax his nerves.

Even though he was wearing Area’s bracelet, the unconscious Helmut could not completely control the weak magical energy radiating from his body.

If the priest had seen Helmut, he would not have tried to keep him alive. Also, no matter how unconscious he was, there was no way Helmut could not have felt the divine power manifesting nearby.

His mother held his hand tightly.

“I really appreciate you.”

With those words, I felt like everything was enough.

Helmut came to the human world and learned the joy of using his strength for someone else.

When we saved Area, and at this very moment.

What he learned in the human world were things he could feel as a human being, not just on his own.

For this, Dig came out of the forest. It was so valuable that no words can explain it.

Suddenly, Magritte’s touch gained strength.

“mother?”

She lowered her head and chanted.

“Thank you, and I’m sorry. “I only gave birth to you, but I haven’t done anything for you.”

Helmut shook his head weakly.

They called me by name and gave me a goal in life. It allowed me to come back here.

So Helmut gained a lot. I wouldn’t say he received much, but he wasn’t deprived of anything.

“are you okay.”

“Just take it easy for a while. “The temple people may wander into the palace, so it would be a good idea to move it to a location that will help with vis recovery soon.”

“My sword.”

There was no situation that aroused Helmut’s vigilance more than being empty-handed and without a weapon.

Above all, the sword is Darian’s keepsake. I didn’t want anyone else to notice.

There may not be many people who recognize it in the first place.

‘There’s also Michael.’

Mother whispered in a kind tone.

“Alonso took care of it. I’ll move it there with your luggage first, so you can just focus on recovering. “I know you’re working hard at training, but you need to rest for a while.”

Helmut nodded.

“yes.”

They are temple people. I don’t know who came, but they are probably focusing on the recovery of the Archduke and the Archduchess. I don’t think the gaze will reach this far.

Even if they are curious about the swordsman who defeated the monster, their mother will take care of it.

This was the Linosa Palace, so it was right to follow the words of my Grand Duchess mother.

Soon my mother left, and a light, rejuvenating meal was served.

Helmut focused on recovery for several days.

The next day I was able to stand up from bed, and the next day I was able to walk a little.

Well, I can’t leave the vicinity of my room.

There was still no contact from Area. It looks like her research isn’t over yet.

His mother visited him every day, and as soon as he could walk, she said it would be a good idea to move from place to place.

“After midnight, at dawn.”

Helmut nodded.

*

I had a strange feeling. As if a foggy wind was blowing.

Senses become more sensitive. Early in the morning, it feels like something is going to happen.

It was pitch dark outside. She traveled by carriage with her mother and arrived at the villa of the Grand Duke of Linosa near Latona.

The softly lit villa was quiet. There was a hint of presence inside the villa, but it was faint.

With Helmut’s current physical condition, it is impossible to detect the presence completely.

‘Are you a member of the Black Wing Knights?’

My mother encouraged me with a smile. It was still a gentle and calm smile.

It felt somewhat different from usual, but it was probably because I was nervous from sneaking around late at night.

“Let’s go inside.”

Helmut followed her inside.

Mother naturally led Helmut to a certain place in the villa garden.

He said there is a good training ground to recover Vis.

It was a sturdy dome-shaped building. A strange sensation caught my attention. It was somehow cool.

But my mother was still smiling. As if to appease Helmut’s wariness, she took the lead and went inside.

And he stretched out his hand towards Helmut.

“Now come on. “Your sword and luggage have all been moved here.”

Helmut could not refuse her.

When I went inside, it was dark before my eyes. Somehow, I felt weak from my body. The door closed behind me. Clap.

After passing through the dark entrance and taking a few steps inside, Helmut suddenly stopped.

He stared frozen at the scene before him.

Unlike the entrance, the inside is spacious and bright.

However, it was definitely not a place that looked like a training ground. Incontinence drawn all over the floor. Almost like a magic circle. His sword cannot be found anywhere.

An ominous premonition becomes reality. An eerie sensation shot straight through him. A dull noise shakes him inside.

Helmut calmly called her.

“mother.”

Marguerite, who was walking ahead, looked back at him quietly.

There was sadness in her eyes as Helmut’s expressionless face was reflected.

No, it was like that from the beginning. Helmut just didn’t notice.

“sorry.”

Thank you and I’m sorry. It was only then that Helmut felt like he knew what his mother really wanted to say.

‘sorry.’

Making the same choice again.

Helmut gritted his teeth. The shadow of fate was casting.

A soft voice rang out from somewhere.

“Thank you for your hard work, Her Highness. “Please step aside now.”

The clothes of the two people walking out from the other side were dazzling.

Wearing pure white clothes, I could feel immense divine power from them.

As their divine power seeped in, light spread across the incontinence of the floor. It quickly turned into a magic circle.

“We are ready.”

Helmut recognized what kind of place this was. He knew right away.

That this was the place where he was sent to the Forest of Pahe on that day, 15 years ago.

It wasn’t a loud betrayal.

His mother simply took advantage of Helmut’s faith to lure him here.

It’s not that there weren’t any signs, and it’s not that I didn’t feel anything.

Still, I wanted to believe it.

The desire to believe blinded Helmut.

Helmut must now be wary of subjects with dark sprouts, and pay the price for trusting someone. A terribly painful price.

Magritte did not move. She was right next to him, looking at Helmut.

Tears overflowed from her gentle blue eyes.

“Helmut.”

The voice calling my name was as desperate and sad as that day 15 years ago.

Who could doubt her sincerity?

However, she was a woman who could choose to betray her sincerity. That was the Grand Duchess of Linosa.

No matter how weak you are, just one moment would be enough to reach out and break her neck.

But Helmut just stood tall like a stone and faced her.

My mother was prepared to pay the price for this betrayal. So she is giving Helmut a chance.

A chance to punish the mother who murdered her and abandoned her children twice!

Helmut let that opportunity pass as if he had never hoped for it.

It was force majeure.

Helmut could take someone’s life without hesitation, but he also had a feeling of helplessness.

A feeling that started from the beginning.

Helmut could never throw it away.

Even if his mother betrayed him.

Someone led my mother away. Helmut remained alone on the glowing sacred magic circle.

Two high priests surrounded him. He has neither the strength nor the sword to resist anyway. He was completely trapped. Foolishly.

The sound of the two people talking was heard like an echo.

“You poor person who was born with noble blood but was not given a fate worthy of it.”

“He who has the sprouts of darkness will inevitably end up in disaster. so… … .”

Soon a bright light poured down on Helmut. It was like the sun burning my body.

“May you go back to where you came from and sleep.”

Helmut closed his eyes. His powerful divine power enveloped his entire body, and at the same time, a burning sensation as if burning his skin swept over him.
