I became the youngest prince in the novel Episode 220

Chapter 55: Doubts and misunderstandings (2)

“Why are you asking that question?”

Shion looked interested and asked back at Claire.

“The first time I had doubts was when Your Highness used ‘Kronos’ Five Questions.’”

Claire begins to open her mouth in a calm voice.

“I used that sacred weapon before returning, and thanks to that, I know what kind of abilities it has. Also, because of that… … .”

Her voice becomes lower.

“I also know how nonsensical the scene you showed me after using the question is.”

Even looking back on it now, it was an unbelievable sight.

A collapsing world and disappearing light.

They were clearly scenes that only beings who escaped fate could create.

“After that I kept thinking about it. “What kind of question was used to create such a scene?”

In fact, no matter what question you used, it was an impossible scene, but if you choose to point out that even the slightest possibility exists… … .

“Second question, or fourth question. Of these, the second question, ‘Time Stealth,’ seems to have been used in Le Zero, so the fourth question is probably correct.”

Other questions did not even have the slightest possibility.

For things like ‘time fixation’ or ‘time reproduction’, the caster had to reach that level himself.

“As you know, Your Highness, ‘time theft’ is only possible if you have personally seen the object from which time is to be retrieved.”

Although she seemed to have gotten stuck here, Claire was able to find the answer in an unexpected place.

“The power you normally use and the power you brought with you through ‘time hijacking.’ It looked very similar. So much so that it can be said to be the same power.”

No, it was definitely the same power.

If so, the source of power would also be the same.

“Furthermore, I can only think of one person who seems to be the original owner of that power.”

Eternal Orrelion Khan Agnes.

In fact, before Claire returned, she had glimpsed some of the hidden history in the depths of the demonic realm, and at that time, she had also acquired some information about the eternal system.

That’s why I had always suspected it before, and this time I was able to be sure.

The appearance of Prince Zion, who uses the ‘Question of Kronos’ to overwhelm Ogrit, is exactly like the Eternal Emperor depicted in hidden history.

Although that description came to mind after the battle was over.

And in the first place, there were only a few beings with that level of power throughout history.

“After my thoughts reached that point, I came up with a hypothesis.”

As the hero continues to speak, a strange light begins to appear in his eyes.

“In fact, Yeongyeokje has not passed away and continues to reside in the imperial palace. About a year ago, Your Highness happened to meet Yeongeokje and inherited his power.”

It was truly a probability so slim that the word impossible was appropriate, and it made no sense to the point that even Claire herself, who had come up with the hypothesis, would normally scoff, but right now, this was all there was to it.

There was no other way to explain the battle a few days ago than this.

Additionally, if this hypothesis is correct, it could also explain Prince Zion’s rapid growth.

‘The witch says she has regained her strength, but… … .’

That was an absolutely absurd statement, so Claire decided not to think about it any more.

‘Is it even possible to think like that?’

Listening to the hero’s words, Shion secretly smiled.

Well, who can guess?

I never thought he would be sitting right in front of me, possessed in another body.

“Let me change the question again, Your Highness Zion.”

The warrior asked once again, looking at Zion with young eyes that went beyond a strange light and filled with aspiration.

“Your Majesty, have you actually seen Eonjeon?”

Of course, Zion’s answer to that question was predetermined.

“No, there is none.”

It was obvious.

It would be strange for him to say that he saw something even though he himself is an eternity old.

If you had asked me if I was alive for eternity like I just did, the answer would have been ambiguous.

“Then how on earth…” … !”

“But I was right about using the power of Eternity.”

Shion smiled and opened his mouth towards Claire, who was showing her confusion.

“Let’s focus on that fact and come up with a hypothesis again. “By making your thinking more flexible.”

Lightly tapping your head with your fingers.

‘Are you saying you won’t tell me directly?’

Claire looked at Shion with shaking eyes for a moment, then closed her eyes and took a deep breath as if to calm her agitation.

I was very curious about who the subject of the question Prince Sion was using was, but even if I thought about it more now, I couldn’t find the answer.

“… … All right.”

So, putting aside that question, Claire opened her closed eyes and changed the subject.

“Then let’s move on to business straight away. In the past, before we headed to Mage Station, Your Highness said this. “Come under me.”

While fighting countless battles at the Demon Station, she continued to think about it and finally made a decision after consulting with other colleagues.

“So what is your choice?”

“… … “The entire group here, including the second hero Claire Flossimar, will serve His Highness Sion.”

The answer that comes out after a moment of silence.

There were concerns that her identity as a warrior would become blurred, but Claire decided to focus more on saving the world than that.

If we can go under Prince Sion and mobilize his power and influence, the salvation of the world will be much easier than it is now.

“But it didn’t mean my head didn’t turn at all.”

Shion grinned as if he knew how to say that and slowly spoke.

“I allow you to serve me. But I am not allowed to stay by my side.”

“yes? What is that… … .”

Those unknown words raised doubt in the eyes of the warrior and his party.

“It’s because you don’t have enough strength to keep you by my side.”

Of course, Zion knew.

He realized that each and every person in front of him was a world-class powerhouse, and that through his journey in this magical world, he had achieved growth that was incomparable to before.

But these were the warrior and his companions.

The last bastion of humanity that carries the destiny of ‘world salvation’ and the final sword that destroys demons.

Therefore, the standards had to be much stricter and higher.

In addition, Zion’s standards were further raised due to this battle at the border.

‘Oman’s power was clearly much higher than described in the chronicles.’

Fate is fair.

Therefore, just as the gods possessed themselves and brought back the warrior, there was a high possibility that various corresponding measures were taken on the demon side.

And Shion guessed that one of them would be an improvement in overall strength.

‘In comparison, these guys haven’t even recovered to the level they were before regression.’

Therefore, it was necessary to work harder and raise the level of strength in a short period of time.

“What I mean by not keeping you around is…” … Just like you sent us to Demon Station, are you saying you will send us to another place this time?”

Tyran, who thought about the meaning of Zion’s words for a moment, opened his mouth with his eyes shining.

“You understand quickly.”

“Then where should we go this time?”

Claire asks Zion about his next destination without any hesitation.

Because of this incident, she felt a great sense of her own shortcomings and therefore also felt the need to become stronger.

Given the opportunity to become stronger in this situation, there was no reason to refuse.

Shion, who was looking at the group of warriors with bored eyes,

“It’s a beast.”

He chanted one word in a low voice.

* * *

The outer part of the border between the Demon Region and the Empire.

Susss-

A woman was moving secretly, hiding her presence in a desert where no life existed.

The name of the woman with dark green hair and fascinating appearance is Jelis.

It was the Grand Duke of Jealousy.

“But I still got out.”

Jelis, who mumbled in a voice full of emptiness, was not in a good condition.

Countless wounds engraved here and there on the body and the power flowing from them.

But she was satisfied with just being alive now.

Because I fought two archdukes.

“Anyway, Oman suffered.”

Jellis muttered, recalling the death of Ogrit, who had created a gap between them to escape.

To be honest, it was something she didn’t expect at all.

Who would have thought that such arrogance would have been inflicted on humans rather than other princes.

“How on earth did it happen?”

Before that, I had heard that Evelyn Agnes, known as the strongest knight, and Sion Agnes, known as the archenemy of the demonic realm, had headed to the border, but it was absolutely impossible with just those two.

‘I think there must have been some other variable… … .’

Jelis, who had been guessing the variables for a moment, shook her head to shake off the thought.

Because now I should have been more concerned about my own situation than that.

‘There is no place for me in Demon Station anymore.’

The home base has already been occupied and the troops are scattered.

Then there was only one way.

To escape from the evil area where the eyes of the Grand Dukes are densely spread out and try to make a comeback in another place.

‘If there is a force close to here and friendly to me, and a place where I can recover my strength the fastest… … .’

Soon, Jellys thought of a place that best suited the conditions and turned with bright eyes.

Fairy forest.

That was exactly the destination she was heading to.

* * *

A luxurious wooden round table that doesn’t feel artificial at all.

“after… … .”

A deep sigh came from the mouth of a middle-aged man, one of the fairies sitting at the round table.

His name is Hallegrion.

It was the first leaf of the World Tree and the head of the Fairy Forest.

“… … “Is there no other way?”

Soon, Hallegrion looked at the fairy in the form of a middle-aged woman sitting across from him and asked.

“At the moment, there is nothing. We have no choice but to summon the Spirit King or a spirit of similar rank as soon as possible.”

The middle-aged woman, Spirena, shook her head and answered in a gloomy voice.

She was the second leaf of the World Tree and held the position of priest.

“… … This is a big deal. really.”

The reason the expressions on the faces of the two highest-ranking members of the Fairy Forest and the 5th Princess Deanna, who was listening to the story next to them, were so serious was because of the festival ‘Song of Leaves of Grass and Trees’ that would be held soon.

This event, said to be the best festival in Fairy Forest, had a different character from other festivals.

A prayer to Achenidia, the god of nature and spirits.

And the purpose was to maintain the World Tree, which can be said to be the source of the Fairy Forest.

What made the fairies so serious was the second purpose, maintenance of the World Tree.

‘In order to maintain the World Tree, a spirit king-level being must imbue the World Tree with spirit power appropriate for that level during a festival held once every four years.’

However, the problem was that there were currently no spiritists in the fairy forest high enough to summon the spirit king.

“How many years did you say? “It was no longer possible to imbue the World Tree with the spirit power of the Spirit King.”

“… … It’s been 40 years. Maybe if I can’t infuse spirit power this time… … You may have to consider the worst case scenario.”

Spirena bowed her head and answered Deanna’s question.

“ha… … .”

A sigh flows from the 5th princess’s mouth.

In fact, the reason Hallegrion visited the capital again after the world conference was to meet Deanna and discuss this issue, there was no way she could do anything else.

“How can a Spirit King-level summoner not appear for this long? … .”

Fairies are blessed by Archenidia, the spirit god, from birth.

Therefore, it was natural that they had to be better than any other race when it came to summoning spirits.

It was certainly strange that among the entire fairy race, there was not a single person who could summon the Spirit King.

This cannot happen unless the blessing disappears.

“Has Archenidia really abandoned us? … .”

at that time,

“Actually, the spirit spirit gave an oracle about it this morning.”

Spirena, who was listening to the lament, opened her mouth.

“Is that true? But why didn’t you tell me?”

Hallegrion stood up and shouted.

“The contents are strange… … .”

“What do you think is strange?”

“I will recite it first. The person who will save the World Tree will soon appear. but… … .”

That was before Spirena recited the entire oracle.

Quang!

“Halegrion!”

A fairy who appeared to be a soldier came in with an urgent look on her face, strongly opening the door to the conference room.

“What’s going on?”

Hallegrion furrowed his eyebrows and asked the soldier.

“Si, Her Highness Zion Agnes has arrived!”

“Hmm, are you here now? But why are you saying that fact so urgently? “Isn’t His Highness Zion’s visit already planned?”

“Well, as soon as we arrived, we massacred our fairies… … !”

It was before the soldier even finished speaking.

Tukwaaaaang!

With a roar so loud that it shook the ground, enormous flames and darkness began to rise from the entrance.
