00853 Meanwhile, Same Time: Seven —————————- —————————–=
The expedition team was able to remove all the debris accumulated in the center within a short period of time. However, contrary to expectations, there was nothing jaw-droppingly surprising. There was just a round table of appropriate size made of stone, lined up at regular intervals like the floor of a square, with round stones placed at each edge.
“It’s just like looking at pizza.”
“Edward, please. “Don’t break the mood.”
The woman with the white shield rolled her eyes and Edward shrugged his shoulders.
After a while, Ian naturally stepped forward. After looking around the table, he called Melinus over and they whispered to each other for a while. Soon they both nodded at the same time, and Ian placed his hand on the nearest stone and carefully dragged it to the center of the table. It was then.
Ksssssssss!
Suddenly, a sound like grinding a millstone echoed in the quiet hall. Natalie’s eyes widened as she looked to the side blankly. This is because one of the fan-shaped pillars on the left was moving at a slow speed. The pillar slowly came closer along the line drawn on the floor, and only stopped when it reached the central point.
“Melinus. “Is that stone connected to this pillar?”
Grumble!
Someone’s question was suddenly buried by a bright light that illuminated the darkness. A light groan flowed among the expedition members who reflexively looked up into the sky. At the top of the pillar that moved to the center, a dark green light was burning like a holy fire. Ian looked at it for a while and then absentmindedly moved his hand towards the second stone.
Ksssssssss!
Ksssssssss!
A faint noise made the square tremble little by little. Every time Ian moved his hand, the pillars standing around began to move one after another.
As a result, the number of green torches lighting up the sky had already increased to seven. The pillars gathered in the center fit together as if they were originally one, and are about to be reborn as a huge circular pillar. Now there is only one pillar left.
Eventually, Ian, who had adjusted his glasses out of habit, was about to reach out for the final stone.
“wait a minute.”
A beautiful voice put the brakes on the movement.
“If you quit… . “Why not?”
The attention of the expedition team was focused on one person. A noble fairy wearing clothes woven from leaves looks at the pillar with an infinitely uneasy look.
“Erwin?”
“Eldora, I mean… . “I’m sorry.”
Erwin was about to say something, but suddenly he touched his forehead and shook his head. Then he hurriedly looks at Natalie.
“Natalie. “Did you really not see any traces earlier?”
“huh? Uh, uh.”
“Really? “Nothing?”
“Mo, you didn’t see it? Why are you doing this all of a sudden? It’s scary… .”
Natalie stepped back with a horrified look on her face. Erwin slumped down, clutching her head, this time looking at Akirov.
“Akirov! Didn’t I say it was a prepared table earlier? Why did you feel that way?”
“Well, I didn’t say that. And that’s just… . “It was a joke.”
Akirov, who was suddenly singled out, responded hesitantly.
“But it’s strange… . It’s so strange… . There must be someone… .”
Then, he kept moving his mouth and seemed troubled, as if he couldn’t figure out what to say.
As Erwin continued to be confused and his breathing became rough, Melinus opened his mouth in a calm voice.
“Erwin. “You’d better calm down first.”
“I just…” . iced coffee… !”
“Erwin? Erwin!”
“… no. Well, I’m fine. sorry. I just felt like I shouldn’t do it… .”
Erwin, who had barely managed to calm down, continued speaking in a strained voice and bit his mouth. Eldora asks ‘What should I do?’ I looked around with a look in my eyes, but everyone had a similar reaction. Everyone just has an awkward face like Eldora. Although he showed signs of disapproval, even Akirov was quietly licking his lips.
In fact, except for Erwin, their inner thoughts were almost the same. Now that the expedition is almost over, who would want to quit here and go back?
Also, even if it is not due to performance, there must be a reasonable basis to quit the expedition and return. Perhaps these are the words of ‘Priest of Radiance’ Ansol. I feel more regretful about returning simply because I have a strange feeling.
Nevertheless, the conflict between the expedition team is due to Erwin’s usual behavior and the uniqueness of his race. Although it is not a proven fact, there is always a reason for Erwin’s actions, and fairies always act reasonably. I instinctively feel very uncomfortable when I do something that goes against the principles of business.
Of course, this doesn’t mean I believe and follow it to the point of blind faith, but it was still something worth thinking about at least once.
… Yes, if Eldora wasn’t blinded by the scabbard.
If that were the case, there might have been a future where he would have definitely chosen to retreat out of the tower.
“Still, we came this far… . “Why not give it a try?”
“Eldora… !”
“It’s something we’ve been considering anyway, and we’ve prepared thoroughly. If something strange is going to happen, we can either cancel it right away, or we can handle it ourselves.”
“… … .”
When Eldora spoke coherently, many people showed agreement. These users were confident in their skills to begin with, and after discovering Ragnarok, their confidence was sky-high. Moreover, there are examples from the Northern Continent that Ian mentioned, so I don’t think it’s completely impossible.
Erwin looked around with anxious eyes for a moment, but soon closed his eyes as if resigned. However, Ian did not proceed with the work right away and kept an eye on Melinus. Although the vast majority of the Knights of the Round Table secretly took part in the continuation, Melinus, who had always taken the lead in matters, felt that a definite answer was needed.
“Uhm… .”
Melinus stroked his white beard and sighed. Eldora took a step back as if she was leaving the choice to her, but there was a subtle light in her eyes.
The time to worry wasn’t long. Melinus, who was looking at Eldora and Erwin alternately, soon let out a deep sigh and nodded slightly. Her appearance made me feel as if she was reluctant but had no choice but to accept it.
When even Melinus agreed, Ian no longer hesitated.
Ksssssssss!
When the last remaining one moved to the center, all eight were finally combined to form one gigantic circular pillar. Suddenly, a green light came on and the area near the pillar became brighter.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
At that moment, the pillar shone a dazzling light. Along with a loud vibration, tangible energy flows like waves on the surface, and the entire square begins to tremble as if there was an earthquake.
Wooooow!
Then, the light on the pillar rose high into the sky. It truly happened in the blink of an eye, and the sight of eight fireworks coming together and soaring through the ceiling was truly spectacular.
But the next moment, an even more surprising phenomenon occurred.
-Quid Enim… .
– Do exclude… .
– Revertere, Si Non Est Per Se Paratum… .
– Unum Tantum Quatuor Reges Ac… .
At the same time, unintelligible sounds from all directions echo in a dizzying manner throughout the space.
Hwaaaaaaaaaaa!

A circle begins to slowly descend from the green-lit ceiling.
It emitted a blinding amount of light, so no one could see in detail. A circular ring-like shape glides through the center of the pillar, and then a cluster of lights begins to glow clearly, and something slowly rises in the center of the light. As if it was being forced out from within.
All of this happened quickly, before anyone could do anything about it.
and.
Flash!
Suddenly, my vision flickered with golden light.
Eldora quickly closed her eyes and opened them, unable to hide her embarrassment. My vision is still colored by light, making it difficult to see.
However, the various sounds that had been distracting me just a moment ago faded away like lies. The sound that felt like chanting a spell and the unpleasant noise that scratched my eardrums all disappeared in an instant. Eldora felt like she was dreaming and focused all her energy on her eyes.
After a while.
When the light that had filled the hall suddenly subsided, a very subtle noise, quite different from before, suddenly followed. At that time, the expedition team had also recovered some degree of visibility. Eventually, Eldora’s eyes grew as big as a flower lantern as she looked at her pillar.
The surface of the pillar is slowly opening from side to side with a clicking sound. Inside the pillar, which was finally wide open, was a structure that looked like a coffin. To be exact, it was a stone gate just big enough for an adult male to fit through.
“oh… .”
“for a moment! “Wait!”
Ian was very ecstatic and was about to approach there when Melinus stopped him with a thunderous voice.
“Meh, Melinus?”
“Calm down, calm down. I guess this is the final step… .”
After saying that, Melinus looked back at Eldora and continued.
“Rather than making a hasty move here, it would be better to investigate the situation for a moment.”
Did you think that there was some truth to that? The moment Erwin let out a sigh of relief as he saw El Dora lower her head.
thud!
Suddenly, there was a sound of something heavy falling and hitting. The large flagship expedition team momentarily aimed their weapons and looked at the pillar. Erwin, who was just about to get up, opened his mouth slightly.
“ah… .”
No one touched it even a hair, and the stone gate had already fallen down. And from inside the pillar, cloudy smoke is billowing out.
“Uh, uh, I don’t have anything…” .”
Ian hurriedly retreated to avoid the flood of smoke, but his legs were twisted and he fell to the floor. However, the smoke passed by Ian and focused on one person.
But no one really paid attention to the phenomenon. This is because, rather than the smoke flowing out, what caught my eye was a dark shape falling out.
The shadow, which was getting closer and closer as if dancing, quickly got closer to where the expedition team was. Eldora gradually regained control of her pounding heart and held Excalibur in both hands hard enough to crush it.
at that time.
“… … ?”
A very small, childish voice suddenly tickled my ears.
Eldora’s Army frowned, wondering if she had misheard.
It was that moment.
In a split second, a small white foot emerged through the thick fog,
“thank you.”
It was almost at the same time that someone tapped Eldora’s shoulder and fell to the ground, accompanied by a young voice.
—————————= Review of the work ——————– ——-=
1. Episode 7 is over. We’ll see you next time with Episode 6. _(__)_
2. I received the mobilization training without any problems. (Someone asked, I received it at the Gangnam Seocho Reserve Force Training Center of the 211th Regiment of the 52nd Division.) The intensity of the training certainly seems to have increased compared to last year, but it was at a level worthy of the training. Rather, I think the overall training went smoothly because the reservists followed the instructors and teaching assistants’ control well.
Personally, I think this training went really well. I was able to complete this year’s training cleanly after two nights of sleep, but most importantly, my body’s rhythm was completely back to normal. Roll call, breakfast, morning training, lunch, afternoon training, dinner, night mental training, bedtime. As I repeat this life, I am forced to adapt to it. haha.
3. That’s not the female soldier. ㅡㅡ; That’s right man. Not a woman. Separately, there are female reserve forces. The day I was discharged was Reserve Force Day, so there was an event in the unit, and I saw a lot of female reservists among them. (I should tell you in advance, I am absolutely not saying this because I am a female reserve soldier.)
Please stop creating strange rumors. I thought the readers were just teasing me for fun, but I was surprised to see that some readers actually thought I was a woman. Let me reiterate, I and Ro Yu-jin are men.
4. Thank you for your patience. As of today, we will resume the series, and we will continue to work towards its completion, which is just around the corner. Have a restful night, all readers. 🙂
fantasy,
