I became the youngest prince in the novel Episode 141

Chapter 38: To the Church of Light (1)

Late at night after midnight.

On the outskirts of Agnes Imperial Castle, where there were few people, a human figure was moving at high speed toward the outside of the castle.

A woman wearing a white priestly robe symbolizing the god of light.

It was Serkia, one of the five demon spirits and called the half-demon general.

‘We have to get out of here quickly.’

Her eyes looked very urgent.

That was because even now, at this very moment, the eyes of the First Prince were following her.

‘How did this happen?’

The decisive factor that made Serkia decide to escape from the imperial castle was an incident that occurred just a few days ago.

While she was listening to the report from her demon subordinate in front of the statue of light, 1st Prince Rubrios suddenly appeared, and the hidden subordinate was immediately caught by him.

Of course, that did not mean that Serkia was in danger right then and there.

Her minions were disguised as humans, and there was no evidence to link them to her.

‘I may have a heartache, but… … .’

That alone wasn’t enough.

Therefore, Serkia answered the fanatic prince’s question about their relationship as if she had absolutely no idea, and thanks to that, she was able to avoid the crisis of that day by only having her subordinate demons captured.

But it was only a temporary measure.

It was natural that the first prince’s obsession grew stronger after that.

‘If we keep going like this, it’s only a matter of time before we get caught.’

I felt like my every breath was being watched.

Even if Serkia herself was extremely careful, the moment it was discovered that the captured subordinate was a demon, it was obvious how things would unfold.

Surely, he would be taken in front of the Heresy Inquisitors immediately.

‘And Hanosral died too… … Utekan, no, Tarahal’s protection will now disappear.’

No matter how I thought about it, escaping from the imperial castle was the best option.

As a result, his influence in the imperial castle would rapidly decline, but it could not be helped.

Because escaping from the crisis was the priority.

‘The situation is getting worse.’

From Hanosral to Tarahal.

In less than half a year, two of the five maryeongs have already lost their lives.

This is the first major crisis we have faced since the demonic forces first permeated the empire over a hundred years ago.

‘If we continue like this, other demons and demons will not be able to move properly.’

No, it was already happening that way.

‘Sion Agnes.’

Serkia thought of the man who was the culprit behind all of this.

Who would have imagined it?

Who would have thought that the person called the imprisoned prince would come closest to the throne in less than a year and push them to this extent.

Now was the time to admit it.

They can never defeat him on their own.

‘I need to request support.’

It was very prideful, but there was no other way.

This would be much better than having the great world itself destroyed.

The other Omar spirits in the outer world were working on other plans and could not afford to help Serkia herself.

then… … .

‘I request it directly from the station.’

Thinking like that, Serkia, with her eyes shining coldly, climbed over the outer wall of the imperial castle.

After the war in the Great Colony ended.

The first thing Zion did was to gather all the Utecan giants, including the Red Horn Tribe, under the control of the Blue Claw Tribe.

In any case, the Blue Claw tribe had sworn allegiance to Sion himself, so coming under them was no different from coming under Sion himself.

And the process was very easy.

-… … Do as you wish.

In the first place, there was no will to rebel against Bayarma, the red-horned tribal leader who was no different from the leader of the pro-Utecan faction.

He accepted Zion’s words obediently, as if he had given up everything.

But in fact, from Bayarma’s perspective, it had no choice but to be like that.

Because the Utekan they served used magic energy.

Even in a large colony of giants, mastering demonic energy was one of the biggest taboos, and the dislike for it was even worse than in the empire.

In the past, the race that took the lead during the war against demonic forces was the giants, and the damage was also severe.

Therefore, Bayarma, who served Utekan, was in severe shock and was satisfied with just surviving his life.

together,

-We, the Black Mane Tribe, have come to form brotherhood with the Blue Claw Tribe.

-The Frost Wolf tribe here also has Blue Claws… … .

It was a natural result that the neutral tribes, who had not participated in the war and were only watching, began to move.

In the first place, it was only important to them that the war ended, not who the winner was.

The last thing Zion did after putting the war behind him and reorganizing the power structure of the colony was to eliminate the hidden monsters.

Although it was a very small number compared to the Empire and other apocryphal regions, monsters definitely existed within the large colony.

Shion planned to organize them all before leaving this place.

Removing the monsters was simple.

-yes? Are you saying there are monsters in the colony?

After giving instructions to Batar, who asked with a questioning look in his eyes, he gathered the high-ranking giants from each tribe into one place and said, wow!

All I had to do was use the Dragon Explosion Spear to activate the previously drawn enemy line.

Wow!

Since there were almost no high-level demons, the demons that came into contact with the light erupting from the enemy camp immediately revealed their identities, and the only result was death.

one week.

How long it took Zion to process all of those things.

If you exclude the time taken for rest due to the rebound of the lunar eclipse, it was a short period of time, less than 4 days.

It indirectly showed how excellent Zion’s judgment and drive were.

The next morning after everything was done.

“Are you going back now?”

The Blue Claw Tribal Chief, Batar, was seeing off Sion as he left the colony with the other tribal chiefs.

The deep regret in his eyes.

Although it was only a short time, Batar was truly impressed by the abilities that Sion had shown so far and was following along.

He moved the monster army as he wanted, single-handedly destroyed the Utekan, and led the war to victory.

In addition, the horrifying judgment and charisma he showed by uniting the tribes and eliminating the hidden demons.

If such a being does not ascend to the throne, then who else will ascend to the throne?

‘So it must have been Gigaperses’ choice.’

Shion nodded towards Baatar and answered briefly.

“okay.”

“You can stay a little longer, get enough rest, and then go.”

“I have something to do.”

“… … All right. “Then please proceed carefully.”

Batar responded as if there was nothing he could do and lowered his head.

Following the tribal leader, the giants behind him also began to bow their heads towards Zion.

The giants did not bow their heads to those they did not approve of, even if it meant having their heads cut off.

How many people in the world would receive such a sincere greeting from such giants?

“We’ll see at the ‘world conference.’”

Sion, who smiled knowingly or not, turned around without hesitation.

Lucas and the Twilight Sword begin to quietly follow Zion.

Until the sight of Sion and the Twilight Sword completely disappeared beyond the horizon.

The giants continued to see them off without moving from their spot.

“You made a big deal out of it this time too.”

This was what Thierry said as soon as Sion returned to Chimseong Palace.

“It has not yet reached the citizens of the empire, so the capital is quiet, but among the nobles right now, all they talk about is Your Majesty and the Great Colony.”

It had to be that way.

That’s because the things Zion did in Daegunrok were unconventional.

The monster army that went to subdue them ended the war of giants without even touching them and conquered the entire colony, even taking the life of the 4th prince Utekan in the process.

This is an act that is beyond shocking and unbelievable.

“Utekan was treated as if he had died after being caught up in a conflict between giants… … Those who know will already have guessed that His Majesty took his life.”

I had no idea how big the fallout from this would be.

Clearly, the competitive landscape for the throne will also be completely changed.

However, Sion asked Thierry in his usual languid tone, as if he didn’t care about such things at all.

“What about Rio Sina?”

“There has been no news yet since we left with the blood mages after receiving instructions from His Highness. “It seems like that work is taking quite a long time.”

“okay?”

In response to Thierry’s answer, Shion tilted his coffee cup with an expression of ‘as expected’.

red chestnuts.

This was the name of the disaster that Liu Sina was entrusted with handling.

The reason why Shion entrusted her with handling ‘Red Night’ was because it was deeply related to blood magic.

‘If you’re Liu Sina, you might be able to get something there.’

In fact, even in the chronicles, Liu Sina becomes intertwined with the ‘Red Night’, which later serves as one of the triggers when she awakens as the ‘Witch of the Apocalypse’.

‘I hope this makes me a little stronger.’

Of course, Liu Sina’s military power was still satisfactory.

Because, as the pinnacle of blood wizards, he possessed a strength rarely seen in royalty.

However, compared to the enemies that would appear in the future, especially the 4th Duke, the highest ranking officer in the Demon Station, he felt inadequate.

I needed to become stronger in preparation for the moment when I would have to fight them.

at that time,

“Ah, by the way, Your Highness. May I ask why you came back so quickly? “Didn’t you say that you had to stay in the larger group because you had work to do?”

Thierry suddenly remembered the message he received from Sion not long ago and asked with a questioning expression.

“I couldn’t do that.”

Shion answers him with a calm expression.

The task was to take as a subordinate Turzan, the warrior’s companion, the third heaven, and the strongest warrior of the giants.

Unlike other warrior companions, Turzan was a complete person from the beginning, so he met Zion’s conditions.

So, after finishing the war, Zion planned to head to ‘Sky Mountain’ to meet him.

but,

‘I was one step too late.’

While Sion himself was fighting a war with Utekan, a group of warriors were already climbing the ‘Sky Mountain’ and ended up making contact with Turzan first.

‘The timing has moved much earlier.’

Originally, it would have been at least a few months later for Turzan to join the warrior’s party.

Therefore, even Zion, who knew the contents of the chronicle, could not have predicted it.

‘Well, it doesn’t matter.’

It didn’t bother me too much.

If Turzan had joined the warrior’s party, he could have obtained the entire warrior’s party.

It was entirely possible if Sion himself ascended to the throne.

Of course, it was a pity that I couldn’t use Turzan right now, but that was all.

‘It’s not particularly urgent.’

The reason I tried to take Turzan in the first place was not because I needed him right away, but because I wanted to deal with him while I was in the giant colony.

“So, are you staying in the imperial castle for the time being?”

“no.”

Sion shook his head in response to Thierry’s next question.

“There’s a place I need to go.”

As he answered like that, Sion recalled the contents of the Flosimar Chronicles in his mind.

‘The red night has appeared, so it won’t be long before ‘it’ will appear as well.’

The largest dungeon on earth, also known as the ‘Tower of Causality’.

As one of the important turning points in the chronology, it was a place that greatly contributed to the growth of the warrior group.

And it was also a place where there were important items that Zion needed to obtain.

But the place Zion was heading to now was not that kind of dungeon.

‘Because there’s still time left before the dungeon opens.’

Originally, I had planned to meet Turzan during that time, but now my plans had changed.

“May I ask where you are going?”

In response to Thierry’s next question, the destination for this time came out of Sion’s mouth.

“Church of Light.”

To be exact, the headquarters of the Church of Light.

‘It wouldn’t be a bad idea to take this opportunity to solve the question about the oracle that Rubrios spoke about.’

If you’re lucky, you’ll also get a clue as to why you fell into this world and your purpose.

In addition, I felt like I could finish the work I had to do there in advance.

After thinking like that, Shion’s eyes began to sink with a strange light in them.
