[EP.3] Fire Secret Library
“Why are you pretending not to know? Between us? Although I know very well that you have raised me since I was born. “In a sense, that’s why we’re tied up.”
To Krasch, Aliod was the father who raised him and a precious person.
However, one of the worst rules applies to Valheim’s butlers.
The rule is that their success is determined by how well the lineage they choose to serve strengthens their position within the family.
They must follow the lineage they serve throughout their lives.
Even if the direct descendant is sent to Cheongsongwan.
There is only one way for them to escape this curse-like structure.
This is when the direct lineage that served died.
Of course, when the direct lineage they served dies, they also usually retire.
However, in the case of Aliod, the story was different.
Because Krasch’s third brother made him a suggestion.
The one condition was none other than Crashu’s poisoning.
He said that if he poisoned Krashu, he would be given a new place to live and a large sum of money.
‘My third brother hated me so much.’
The essential reason why the third brother disliked himself was none other than the fourth sister.
A direct descendant of the Valheim family, which consists of a total of five people.
Two of them were actually half of their bloodlines different from the rest.
Starting from the first to the third, they are children born to his ex-wife.
After that, the fourth and youngest child, Krashu, were the children of the current wife adopted by the head of the Valheim family.
And among them, the fourth child, Crashu’s older sister Charlotte Walheim, was the biggest problem.
‘The greatest genius ever born in Valheim.’
Even in Valheim, Charlotte is born with an unbelievable talent that only appears once in a thousand years.
Based on that talent, Charlotte Valheim overturned the immediate hierarchy within Valheim in an instant.
As a result, not only the third brother but also the second sister were robbed of their direct rank by Charlotte.
As a result, the third brother filled his heart with anger that had no place to go.
The family was blatantly pushing Charlotte, so the third brother was truly left out in the cold.
‘The place where the third brother’s angry gaze was directed was none other than me.’
The youngest with the same bloodline as Charlotte and terrible skills.
He is the third child, whom even Crashu’s newly married mother hated.
The moment he was pushed down the ranks with Charlotte’s growth, he poured all of his anger into Crashu.
So much so that I really wanted to kill Krashu.
‘Because I can’t do anything against Charlotte. She must have poured it out on me, who at least had a face that resembled hers.’
It was an incredible thing for Krasch, but he didn’t even have the strength to fight it.
So much so that even the butler who was supposed to serve him ended up agreeing to his deal.
“Well, it’s done. “I don’t care if you’re going to pretend not to notice.”
Crashu did not particularly reprimand Aliod further.
In the end, the reason why the butler was handed over to the third brother was because he was half-penned.
The reason Krasch was alive in the first place was because his poisoning failed.
That was natural.
The day Aliod decided to carry out the assassination.
‘Because that guy committed suicide right in front of my eyes.’
Aliod snatched the poison that had been burned into the stew just before Crasch could eat it and drank it himself.
“sorry. Master, I dared to commit a deadly sin. You are as precious to me as my child, so how dare you… … .」
The image of Aliod apologizing while dying from poison that day was still vividly etched in my mind.
“Instead, please follow me.”
But that was it, he had something else to ask of him.
“… … yes.”
Was there some kind of change of heart?
Aliod answered quite obediently.
Krasch didn’t pay any attention to Aliod and walked on.
‘I’m sure it will happen at this time.’
Hoping that his memory was correct, the direction Crasch walked towards was none other than Cheongsonggwan’s study.
Although it was a study room with numerous books, in reality, this study room was just an assortment.
Crasch, who had actually read the books here, knew very well that there were not many useful books.
Cheongsong-gwan is not a place for those abandoned by Valheim to come for no reason.
There is nothing useful about Cheongsonggwan.
Except for one thing.
“Master Crashu, is there a book you are looking for?”
Krasch suddenly stopped by the study.
When Aliod looked at him and asked a question, Krasch walked away without answering.
Then he suddenly stood in front of the bookshelf.
“Aliod.”
“yes.”
“Take this away.”
Aliod looked doubtful.
However, Krasch’s order somehow felt difficult to refuse.
‘Where did I get this feeling?’

house owner.
She was the head of Valheim.
But he quickly shook off his thoughts.
It was too early to compare him with Krasch.
Aliod took out all the books from the bookshelf and then even cleared the bookshelf.
What appeared like that was the wall of an ordinary study.
“This wall, Vera.”
“yes?”
They told us to remove the bookshelf, but now we have to cut down the walls too?
It was a completely unpredictable story.
However, Aliod was Crashu’s butler.
As Aliod could not refuse his orders, he immediately drew his sword.
Then a bluish aura began to surround his sword.
To be a butler in Valheim, you must have advanced knight skills.
That was because at least he could assist Valheim’s immediate family.
“I’ll cut you.”
With the rising sword energy, Aliod cut down the wall.
The moment he faithfully followed Krashu’s orders and finished cutting cleanly, the sound of kugugung rang out.
Then, after a while, the outer wall was cut into a square shape and fell behind.
At that moment, Aliod realized.
That there is some space beyond the outer wall of the study.
Did you know about this place in advance?
It was a place that even Aliod, who was assigned to Cheongsong Hall, did not know about.
The moment Aliod was looking at the place blankly, Crashu climbed over the cut outer wall.
“Good job.”
Crasch briefly praised Aliod and walked inside.
Aliod followed Crashu as if he were possessed.
After a while they came across a huge lock.
A lock larger than a human hand was fastened securely to the door.
Krasch stood in front of the dusty door with the locked lock on it.
“Do I have to cut the lock too?”
“No, that’s enough.”
The wall beyond Cheongsonggwan’s study.
When I came here before, everything had already burned down and was meaningless.
But it was different now.
Because that’s quite a distant future.
‘Cheongsonggwan is definitely a place where abandoned people from Valheim are sent.’
Therefore, the half-penny Krasch was also sent.
Krasch wasted his time here.
However, the original purpose for which Cheongsonggwan was built was not for such malicious reasons.
Now, a long time has passed since Valheim was created, and its meaning has faded.
The original meaning of Cheongsonggwan was a place to help people who were born without abilities in Valheim so that they could see the light again in Valheim.
However, the original meaning of Cheongsonggwan changed due to one incident.
The worst shame and devil of the Valheim family who grew up in Cheongsongwan.
The one who tried to destroy Valheim.
By Demaris Valheim.
‘Thanks to that, this place was also hidden.’
Someone like Demaris should not be born again.
That’s why this place is hidden.
Cheongsonggwan’s secret library.
It was a place for Valheim’s banpuni.
Unless you are the matriarch of Valheim, this is a place that not even the direct descendants of Valheim know about.
When Krasch arrived there, he placed his hand on the huge lock.
Originally, it was a lock made with properties that even Aliod, a high-ranking knight, could not open.
But he is different.
What is the first thing you have to do to steal it?
That’s lock picking.
For Krasch, who had picked numerous locks so far, locking the secret library at Cheongsonggwan was an easy task.
‘Would you like to show me your active skills?’
Krasch immediately activated Black Hood.
A black hood who steals what the target has.
Of course, the same applies to objects.
Instead, what is different from living things is that value judgments are not necessary for objects.
Especially if it is an item that has not had an owner for a long time.
Clap!
At that moment, the ring of the lock was grasped in Krasch’s hand.
thud!
A large lock that had lost its ring fell to the floor.
Aliod opened his eyes wide when he saw the situation that happened in an instant.
Meanwhile, Krasch roughly threw the ring on the floor.
“… … Master Krasch, have you made a contract with God?”
Then, Aliod looked surprised and asked if there was a contract with God.
The ability Krasch just showed was clearly a skill.
The skill is extraordinary and acts as a deterrent.
Therefore, when Aliod asked, Crashu glanced at him.
Apparently, at this point, he had not yet made a contract with God.
“Well, he’s just an insignificant god. If you want to report it to your father, you can do it. It doesn’t matter whether I stand or work.”
All of the deacon’s affairs are reported to the father, the head of the family.
Knowing that fact, when Crashu said that, Aliod was silent and then bowed his head and spoke.
“At least I will keep quiet until Master Crasch finishes what he wants to do.”
The words that came back were quite unexpected.
In Crasch’s memories, Aliod was a person with a great desire for success.
And the reason for his desire for success was none other than his terminally ill daughter.
All of the salary he receives from Valheim is used to treat his daughter’s terminal illness.
But even so, the money was not enough.
As a result, he needed even more money.
That’s why he received an assassination proposal from Krashu’s third brother.
In the end, the stew was poisoned.
And in the end, the reason he ate that stew was because of his daughter.
That day, Aliod’s eyes widened when he saw that his daughter was in danger.
In the end, the day when he was going to assassinate his third brother in exchange for a better treatment.
His daughter eventually died from an incurable disease.
Aliod barely came to his senses after his daughter died, and died after eating stew instead of krasch.
When he apologized for the last time, he also felt guilty about not being able to help Krasch grow as a deacon.
To myself, who was born with only half a fortune.
He is now coming out with that attitude.
‘In the meantime, did I see a vision or something?’
Krasch changed overnight.
This is a situation that is inherently incomprehensible.
However, if it is a contract with God, it is a different story.
Even if it is half a penny, it can change overnight depending on which god you made the contract with.
The skills given through a contract with God were very valuable.
So Aliod changed his mind.
If it was the Crashu that I see now, maybe it would see the light of day again.
‘At this point, Aliod has only received a suggestion from his third brother, but has not put it into practice.’
If you think about it, he hadn’t betrayed Krashu yet.
It was something that could have been easily overlooked as long as Krasch didn’t judge what was right or wrong.
‘Right. Is this the downside of regression?’
Krasch vaguely realized why Arthur hated regression.
Now Aliod and Aliod, who drank the poison stew, were different people.
And the two will definitely move forward in different directions.
This is because the person called Crashu has changed.
Arthur could not bear this feeling of separation, and in the end, he was robbed of his return.
‘The question is, is she Aliod’s daughter?’
Aliode is useful.
His assistant skills are also excellent enough to serve as a deacon in direct charge of Valheim.
At least until I was in Cheongsonggwan, it was better to keep Aliod by my side.
Moreover, Crasch knew what Aliod’s daughter’s terminal illness was.
And even the solution.
‘This will be resolved gradually.’
Now, the secret library came first.
Krasch felt a little excited for the first time in a long time.
And with that in mind, I opened the door to the secret library.
Whoop-
A dusty wind blew from inside.
Maybe it’s because we’ve been rolling around so much in the world’s erosion, but we don’t really care about this much dust.
So Krasch walked inside with great strides.
As my eyes became accustomed to the darkness, I began to see the inside clearly.
The first thing that caught my eye was the book on the old bookshelf.
The books here were secret books containing the knowledge of our ancestors.
For Valheim, a natural genius, secret books are actually meaningless.
Because when they are born, all the blessings of Valheim are already concentrated in their bodies.
But why is there a secret book like this in the library of Valheim?
The answer is simple.
‘Because this place is only for Banpoon.’
The people who produced Valheim’s secret books were half-fingers of Valheim.
