Episode 127
Yeongsan Mountain.
I never thought I would hear these words in a place like this, or even from the mouth of a dark fairy wizard.
“… “Where?”
“I said it was Yeongsan.”
Lycerradigos looked at me dumbfounded and spoke calmly.
“There is a strange peninsula-shaped land at the eastern end of the continent, and it is one of the Taishan Mountains there. “It is probably considered one of the largest demonic realms on the continent.”
“… … .”
I came to my senses slightly by the next words.
I realized that the spiritual mountain that Lycerradigos talked about and the spiritual mountain I knew were completely different places.
In fact, it was a natural thing.
“… “The place name is a bit unusual.”
“I heard it was a name given by followers of Colorless.”
“… … .”
That statement is probably not true.
I don’t know how the spiritual mountain of this world came to be and where it came to be… … .
It cannot be a mere coincidence that the name of the place where the great brother stays is Yeongsan.
In other words, giving a mountain the name Yeongsan is a great example, and the believers are just calling it after it.
‘why?’
The ambassador left Yeongsan on his own.
At first, I thought there might be some misunderstanding, but when I met him in person, I realized that was not the case.
The ambassador’s punishment was all thrown away.
Everything from the relationship, relationship, and memories between the teacher and his brother-in-law. People who prioritize their mission above all else often display such behavior.
Why did the great brother name the mountain Yeongsan?
‘… … .’
Instead of the devil I saw in hell, I think of the great execution in my memory.
The Grand Master usually had a smiling face, but it wasn’t specifically to hide his emotions.
When I was happy, I laughed louder.
When he was in trouble, he smiled awkwardly.
Before eating, I always prayed to someone.
After killing the monsters and monsters that stayed in the mountain, he always repented with a silent expression.
Even if there was something I couldn’t understand, even if it was the heavenly teacher’s words, I fought against them.
So, next to my teacher, I respected and followed my great brother… … .
I thought that the reason I was always smiling was because I was always treating life with joy.
Because laughter naturally comes from leisure.
But in my world, the colorless devil destroyed the country.
One country.
How much blood will be shed as a result?
“-ruler.”
As if applauding, Lycerradigos aroused my attention.
“This would have been well worth the 35 points. “To find out about this from the outside, I would have had to search through at least hundreds of old books.”
That’s right.
With today’s question and answer, I probably saved at least a few months of time.
However, I am in a sad state of mind for no reason.
“Your complexion looks bad.”
“… is that so? “Did you have trouble sleeping?”
I shook my head, but my foggy mind was not easily cleared.
“If you’re done with your business, let’s go. My throat hurts after talking so much for the first time in a while. “If you go back the way you came, you will be able to leave.”
“… … .”
“What are you doing? “Don’t go quickly.”
I asked, looking at Lyserradigos.
“Can I come here again?”
“The underground library does not want repeat visits. “Any guest can stop by only once.”
It seemed like it would be so.
Since it is a place with a grand name, the Tomb of Forbidden Books, most of what exists here is probably dangerous knowledge.
This is knowledge that ordinary people would rather not know.
‘In short, I absolutely need it.’
In any case, my life from now on will be terribly intertwined with these sects.
In addition, the God of War, the Sword of the Seven Deadly Sins, a forgotten era, and even the throne… … . It seems like the things you need to know are increasing rather than decreasing.
So, if I can make the knowledge in the underground library my own, it will definitely be of great help in my future steps.
“Is there any other way? “I want to visit this library often in the future.”
“That kind of thing wasn’t in the contract. go away.”
Slowly, the tone of his speech was starting to change.
It felt like my hair, which had been hanging down, was trying to stand up again.
I said before it took the form of a snake.
“So what about the deal?”
“transaction?”
“If you allow me to borrow the book, I will give you something in return.”

An absurd light flashed through Lyserradigos’ eyes.
“Do you know the definition of transaction?”
“That’s right, water-.”
“Don’t answer yet. I don’t think you even know the concept of words. What I’m curious about is, kid. “What on earth can a child who has not even signed a contract give to this body?”
I thought it was important from now on.
First of all, this wizard is obviously eccentric, but he can communicate anyway.
Of course, I don’t know how this attitude will suddenly change, so I’m tired of wizards… … .
“Is there anything you want?”
“does not exist.”
Couldn’t this be a lie?
If you don’t really want anything in the first place, there is no reason to continue this conversation, apart from the fact that you have no ill will.
I’m going to kick them out by force right now.
Of course, guessing from the word ‘contract’ mentioned above, there may be conditions under which direct harm cannot be inflicted… … .
Anyway, Lycerradigos is testing me.
It’s still insidious, but that’s why it’s worth doing.
In an instant, I thought of several things I could suggest.
You can simply give money in return.
Now I am a wealthy person with a whopping 5,000 gold… … . Or, you could use that money to get me the materials needed for magic arts instead.
‘but… … .’
I feel a strange sense of certainty.
I am convinced that everything that comes to mind right now is the wrong answer.
“Try saying something. However, if the answer is not to my liking, you will have to pay the price.”
“What is the price?”
“You’re still young, so I won’t take your life away. “But I’ll have to give up one of my right arms.”
I almost sighed.
At this point, it felt like something was stuck tightly on my right arm.
I remember the past when my tendons were cut by Keian, and my arm was cut off by a priest right before I returned.
I spat out half angrily.
“I will teach you a magic trick.”
“… … .”
“You’re going to teach me magic?”
“yes.”
“… crane.”
Lycerradigos reacted in a dazed way and made a strange sound before I could respond.
“Aha, haha, haha, haha, hahaha… … .”
After a while I realized it was laughter.
This wizard’s laugh was as bizarre as his appearance.
“That’s fun, kid. How long has it been since I laughed like this? … .”
“… … .”
“Will you teach me magic? This is the first time I’ve heard this in hundreds of years. Child, do you know who I am?”
“… “Isn’t he the Badniker’s Serpent Divine Priest, an ancient black fairy, an underground library librarian, and a wizard?”
“That’s only a small part of it.”
Lycerradigos spoke in an excited voice.
“Hey, I’ll ask you again. Will you teach me, Lyserradigos, the sentinel of the night sky, the rightful owner of the Dark Tower, and the creator of the nine runes? Can you take responsibility for those words?”
I can feel the anger in his voice.
It seemed like he thought I had insulted him.
but.
“yes.”
Does this wizard know?
I am rather happy with the current situation.
“I’ll teach you the magic you’ve never experienced before.”
* * *
Lycerradigos looked at the baby in front of him.
Its characteristics are too faint to be considered a Badniker’s bloodline.
First of all, that annoyingly bright white blonde hair is a feature that black fairies do not have. The skin color is as white as porcelain.
If it weren’t for the color of the eyes, you wouldn’t even know it was a badknicker.
in other words.
Even if we face each other like this, Lycerradigos’ heart should not be shaken.
‘That’s strange.’
They have manners.
At times, a hint of caution could be seen in their surprised and embarrassed faces.
A general reaction of those who encounter Lycerradigos.
There is only one difference… … .
‘There is no fear.’
This is the strangest thing.
Lycerradigos knows very well how others feel about the atmosphere he gives off.
To some extent, this is intentional.
Unless you are a very disciplined person, it will be difficult to maintain your sanity.
But this little guy.
Even though this side is making quite elaborate threats, their attitude remains unwavering.
Looking at my age, I don’t think this kind of experience happens often, but is it just an innate nature?
“… Well, good. Say it once. “It’s magic that this body has never experienced.”
anyway.
Whatever this kid’s identity was, he succeeded.
That means putting Lycerradigos at the negotiating table.
It brought out the most important emotion for a wizard: curiosity.
Still, there is one more thing this kid needs to know.
“But if you try to humiliate me with your petty knowledge, you will have to pay the price.”
What arouses the wizard’s curiosity is that in some cases, it is dangerous enough to risk one’s life.
* * *
“At what cost?”
When I asked, the wizard answered in an indifferent voice.
“As I said before, I will take your right arm first. And don’t cut off your tongue. “There will be no more need for your tongue to talk nonsense.”
I’m going to cut off your arm and cut out your tongue.
During his time as a collector, Keian was seen as a nobleman.
“But child, you are asking useless things. “Are you planning to deceive me?”
“That can’t be right.”
Actually, there was something I wanted to know, and the conversation just made me feel confident.
“then… “Ladilysegos.”
“It’s Lycerradigos.”
“Lisadigos-.”
“Just call me Lise.”
“yes.”
“Don’t tell me in advance. “This body is not just good at magic.”
Rise continued speaking in a calm voice.
“I have experience not only in alchemy, summoning, and elemental magic, but also in divine power, primitive magic that deals with the ethnic minorities of the plains, curses, demonic contracts, and necromancy.”
I paused for a moment at these words.
“If the magic you said you would teach me is one of these, now is your last chance. “If I tell you in advance, I won’t cut off your tongue.”
You’re saying you’re going to cut off your arm.
That’s it for me.
The good news is that the magic I will teach you is a completely different and different power from what Lise said.
“It’s the spell that was placed in the crypt.”
I continued speaking, noting the change in Lise’s expression.
“It was amazing.”
They say compliments make even whales dance, but that doesn’t seem to be true.
Rise responded in her characteristic dry voice.
“What is it?”
“Usually that type of magic prefers to distort the intruder’s senses, right? But the wizard didn’t do that. He put a spell on the entire crypt.”
The reason for adopting the former method is simple.
This is because it is more efficient to set up a spell that distorts the intruder’s perception than to change the crypt from time to time with magic.
Anyway, even though I praised her by giving a fairly specific example, Riese’s reaction was calm, which is actually a natural attitude.
Anyone can say to a snotty dog, ‘You’re smart.’ You won’t feel excited after hearing the same thing.
“Actually, just from that alone, I could tell that you were a magician of a great level – but that wasn’t the only thing.”
At this point, I deliberately changed the topic excessively.
“I have been to the old dance hall beyond the back of the mansion.”
I had no intention of revealing this to anyone in the family, but in my opinion, there was no need to do so to Lise.
“It was a place that wasn’t maintained at all, and there were no traces of people coming and going.”
“however.”
“I saw the undead there.”
In times like this, it is effective not to avoid eye contact, so I continued glaring at Lise.
“To me, the flow of mana is handwriting. “It’s not something you can hide if you want to.”
In fact, each person has a different way of feeling mana, or energy.
– Some people distinguish it by color, while others feel it by touch. Although he is an unusual case, he says some people can tell by smell.
The second sister-in-law had particularly keen senses.
– How does Luan see the flow of energy?
My sister-in-law asked me in her characteristic quiet voice, and I answered.
To me, the flow looks like handwriting.
And the Mana handwriting I felt when looking at the undead and the handwriting I saw just passing through the crypt are the same.
in other words.
The unidentified necromancer who dealt with the undead in Badniker is Lyserradigos.
“… … .”
Rise closed her mouth.
