Episode 939
-I have no intention of stopping the play.
The Death Knights spoke with their blue eyes flashing.
Some people sighed with concern, while others said they should.
-It would be even more humiliating if pre-planned events were thwarted due to the hideous actions of evil people.
The information obtained by the Death Knights who interrogated the evil god worshiper was fragmentary.
Evil god worshipers who worship Prahgal are targeting the palace, and one of them, Madhf, sneaks in first, looking for an opportunity, and causes a disturbance when he receives a signal.
Even Madf himself did not know when and how the attack would occur. The evil god worshipers who had survived in the shadows of the empire for a long time made meticulous preparations to prevent each other from knowing each other’s plans.
‘It’s a problem to cancel a play arbitrarily, but it’s even more of a problem if the evil worshipers step down.’
The Death Knights were planning to use this opportunity to bring out the evil god worshipers and completely punish them.
If the play had stopped here, they would have sensed a sense of incongruity and would have hidden again, but then there was no telling when and where damage would occur.
“As expected of the knights of the Duke, they are warlike.”
Like Lee Han, Alcicle also figured out the Death Knights’ intentions.
On the outside, it was said to be for the sake of the play’s reputation, but on the inside, a sense of responsibility was evident to catch those who worshiped evil spirits.
They were indeed the knights of the Commander-in-Chief.
“…Wait a minute, what illusion magic have we prepared?”
“We have to cancel. “Are you calling that a question now?”
Lee Han looked down and whispered.
You never know when or how evil spirit worshipers will come in, but they surprise people with surprise plays.
If he was not careful, he could have been accused of being a sympathizer of evil spirits.
“I prepared hard…”
Alcicle looked like a penguin who had lost all the sardines he had fished for the day.
When Lee Han saw that expression, he felt sorry, but he couldn’t help it.
“We forget about it and only think about evil spirits.”
“What about escape?”
“Escape… I guess I’ll have to give up.”
Lee Han said after thinking about it.
The theater club students may have been very disappointed, but as things turned out, all plans were put on hold.
There are evil god worshipers wandering around, but what kind of escape is it if they disperse and escape?
‘Luckily I can get out.’
The good news was that even though the theater club students could not go out, Lee Han could.
Even theater club students will realize over time that they joined the wrong club.
-Nago. Pengelin.
“yes.”
-You two, please look for suspicious people among the audience inside the palace.
Alcicle of the Pengerin family knew the skills of even the Death Knights, and Stedal of the Nago family was the first to catch the strangeness of the soul.
If there were any additional infiltrators, these two would be able to catch them.
“Just leave it to me.”
“It is an honour!”
-Clvik. Could you please ask the illusion wizards to strengthen the palace’s magical defenses?
“Anything is possible! However, the level of fantasy wizards here is not that outstanding. “Please don’t expect too much.”
-of course. If you just tell us about the installed magic, our engineers will be able to refer to it.
‘You are humble.’
Lee Han thought to himself.
They are wizards, including Baldororn, but they are so humble.
-Einrogard students divide their roles and respond flexibly.
“We will prepare potions and prepare for any unexpected situation.”
“We will secure an evacuation route and evacuate nobles out of the palace in case something unusual happens.”
“We will create a secret passageway and take out nobles when they need to avoid attention.”
-…Students!
The Death Knights were deeply moved.
When did Einrogard students grow like this?
The Death Knights were unknowingly thrilled to see the students, who would normally whine and complain, move in order without wasting any time.
The students bowed their heads with solemn expressions despite the emotion of the Death Knights.
At first glance, it seemed like he felt a deep sense of responsibility as a student at the best magic school in the empire.
‘I bet you didn’t get caught.’
‘I wouldn’t have caught it. …maybe.’
‘wait for a sec. You’re not being prevented from escaping because of an evil spirit worshiper, right? The escape is going as planned, right?’
‘no. They say it’s on hold.’
‘…If you find me, I’ll kill you!’
* * *
“There doesn’t seem to be anyone suspicious.”
“It seem to be like that. me too.”
Alcicle lightly shook the pendulum with the ice crystal hanging from it.
Although he could not penetrate the soul as deeply as Lee Han, this cold precognition magic was effective in sensitively detecting malice or evil intentions.
Lee Han asked with interest, knowing full well that foresight magic is more restrictive and tricky than expected.
“Can I learn this fortune telling?”
“this? “You can do it.”

Alcicle asked what kind of fortune-telling Lee Han had learned, just in case.
Of course, this Wodanaz was a genius enough to be called a magic monster, but the magic of precognition was the magic that could be easily and quickly manipulated among the various schools of magic.
This was especially true for talented wizards. The more you indulge in the future, the more you have to pay and the more severe the rebound you have to pay.
What an outstanding precognitive wizard really needed might not be talent, but modesty and restraint.
“I learned things like the crystal top, the spirit gold coin, and the five demons.”
“That would be fine.”
Alcicle nodded.
If such a fortune telling was used safely, it was clear that Lee Han used it with control.
“for a moment. “Isn’t the price of crystal top fortune telling is magical power?”
“you’re right.”
“…Such a coward.”
“!?”
Seeing his junior’s deceptive talent in divination, Alcicle grumbled and began to explain.
This pendulum fortune-telling required a diamond cut into the shape of a water drop as payment.
“……”
Lee Han looked at Alcicle with eyes of bewilderment and astonishment. However, Alcicle did not notice and continued to explain.
“If you sublimate this into cold and offer it as a sacrifice, a pendulum made of ice crystal will be temporarily created like this. Now, instead of taking the risk of peeking into the future… Why are you doing that?”
“I was surprised because the price was so ridiculous.”
“What are you talking about? I’m thankful for this. “It’s not like I’m offering my hands or my feet.”
Alcicle looked rather dumbfounded.
Among precognitive magics, there are many more evil and powerful spells that require payment, but gems were a cheap solution.
‘That’s why we always lack research funds.’
Lee Han thought rudely to himself.
Meanwhile, the two checked all the people inside.
There was no one who felt uncomfortable in their soul or whose pendulum was swinging.
“I guess there aren’t any more. In fact, I don’t think they would have infiltrated many evil god worshipers.”
“Then let’s move upstage.”
The upper part was convenient for monitoring the surroundings or responding to situations while the play was in progress.
Alcicle asked with a lingering voice.
“Is there any need to use the illusion magic I prepared?”
“Because there isn’t one. “Take it home.”
“Take this and use it somewhere! “Children will faint from shock.”
Lee Han, who was walking, found Waldororn groaning and groaning at the palace stairs.
“Is it elastic labyrinth magic?”
“yes. “It’s about halfway done.”
Both Alcicle and Lee Han immediately realized what kind of magic was being prepared.
The 3rd circle magic,
It wasn’t a very easy magic, but it wasn’t so difficult that the two of them couldn’t do it. Alcicle asked curiously.
“Why are you whining about that?”
“You’re probably worried because magic is cliche and bad. However, if you cast the Go Circle spell alone, the balance will be unbalanced and you will run out of reagents.”
Lee Han nodded as if he understood.
Since I wasn’t doing it alone, I couldn’t change the magic at will even if I didn’t like it.
There is a need to maintain balance with other wizards.
It was clear that Waldororn was looking for a better way even within those limitations.
“Let’s go. “Let’s not get in the way.”
“okay.”
As the two rushed away without stopping, Waldororn grumbled inwardly.
‘If you’re a great wizard, I’ll help you…!’
I heard they were both great wizards, but they just walked away without giving me any advice on what I was stuck on.
As we prepare to defend the palace together, wouldn’t it be a good idea to give some advice to the junior wizard who is struggling.
As expected, all outstanding wizards were extremely eccentric.
* * *
“Something is strange.”
“What are you talking about?”
“Hasn’t the atmosphere in the palace become sharper?”
“Maybe so. But nothing changes.”
The priest with the scarab symbol carved on his forehead muttered.
The thinking of evil god worshipers was basically twisted and tainted with madness.
Still, ordinary believers and collaborators could still lead a normal life, but as priests, even though they were human on the outside, they had to be seen as an alien race from another dimension on the inside.
It is difficult to predict such an accident using normal thinking methods.
The priest with the scarab symbol carved on his forehead was one such being. Everything, including the name, was sacrificed to an evil spirit long ago, and all that remains is the engraved pattern.
The same was true for priests who had a tree symbol carved on their foreheads or priests who had a sun symbol carved on their foreheads.
“The blasphemer will come, and Prahgal will rejoice.”
“The blasphemer will come, and Prahgal will rejoice!”
With a gloomy spell, the priests’ figures began to shrink.
Even though it became smaller than a child, it did not stop shrinking. Eventually, the priests turned into small lumps of blood and disappeared.
No one noticed that this ceremony took place quietly on a hill far from the palace.
But I noticed the empty space above the palace. The undead being who received the offering was delighted and began to fulfill the contract.
-We’re up!
-how!?
The Death Knights responded immediately.
I was wondering how to approach the palace, but what about summoning from thin air?
‘That’s ridiculous! ‘Summoning such a strong person without any approach or preparation?’
Even as they responded, the Death Knights were embarrassed.
As their master was their master, they were knights, but they were also quite skilled in magic.
Magic was never an all-purpose technology. It was a ruthless study that could only be done by paying a price under the law.
The energy felt in the air right now is quite powerful.
To summon such a strong person, you have no access or awareness?
-Didn’t they really sacrifice themselves? That’s their specialty!
-Nonsense. No matter how much human sacrifice is done, this is enough for several high-ranking priests…
The Death Knight trailed off.
If you think about it normally, sacrificing several high-ranking priests just to attack the palace where the play was taking place was crazy.
However, evil god worshipers were far from the general way of thinking and worshiped a grand plan that only they understood.
These people can really sacrifice high-ranking priests for the sake of the Great Precepts.
-For what reason? For what?
-I’m not even curious about what that crazy evil spirit thinks! Ready for battle! Evacuate the area below!
The Death Knight clicked his tongue.
I thought an attack would come from somewhere, but this was just a senseless terrorist attack.
Despite the delicate preparations, I never thought evacuation would have been the right answer.
Kwazijijijik-!
Chains filled with negative energy wrapped around the portal, and siege weapons dragged by the Death Knights began to attack.
An onslaught rained down beyond the portal that opened in the air.
However, the summoning of the undead did not stop. The Death Knights swore at the disgusting smell.
-You are a blasphemer! After all, he’s a strong guy!
-Take the time! If he pays attention to the lower part, things get troublesome!
Hehehe!
The Death Knights became nervous as the undead with their army of corruption and corruption tried to crawl out.
At that moment, a huge dragon shot out from the palace below.
-!!!?!
Dragon?!
The blasphemer must have been startled, so he quickly backed away.
fantasy,
