Episode 1156
Simone went to see Chatel.
This room is a bit further down the stairs than a regular room.
It appears to have originally been a cargo warehouse, but the crew of the Crystal converted it into a guest room especially for the large Chatel.
We finally arrived in front of the room.
<Representative of the Dark Alliance – Chatel Mayer>
Simon glanced at the sign on the door and knocked lightly with the back of his hand.
smart.
“Chatel, it’s me. “Can I come in?”
Thump thump.
A positive answer came back from inside.
It’s positive, right? Thinking so, Simon opened the door and went in.
I saw Chatel lying on a large bed. Sunlight shines faintly through the round window on the wall.
His condition was not much different from usual. When you think of a patient, he didn’t have any bandages or anything like an injection needle.
“Did I wake you up by any chance?”
Chatelle shook her head and raised her heavy upper body. It felt like something like a large mountain came right in front of her.
“How are you feeling?”
“Fine. all.”
Chatelle twirled her arms and opened her palms.
The pitch black rose, rolling like waves. As he clenched his fist, the jet black splashed around and was sucked back into his body.
According to what Medic Crystal Ho said, the cause of Chatel’s poor condition seemed to be a problem with the jet black core, not a health problem.
The only solution is rest.
If we fight further here, the condition may worsen.
“I came because I wanted to talk about participating in this Rune League.”
Simon, who was sitting on a chair, opened his mouth.
“To be honest, Chantel, you are an indispensable force for our Dark Alliance team. However, if you overdo it in the Rune League, it may interfere with your future activities.”
Châtel Maière’s future is bright.
A student who was admitted under special circumstances and has never missed the top 10 ranks in Keygen. It is true that looking at his life as a whole, it seems better to look far away and relax rather than to overdo it in the rune league in front of him.
“So I’m curious what you think.”
“Symptom. It’s temporary. Condition. “You can recover.”
Chatelle opened her mouth intermittently, as always.
“And my thoughts. as it were-“
Chatelle suddenly got off the bed. Simon is blinking and wondering why.
thud!
Chatelle got down on her knees.
“I am. “I want to go to Rune League.”
“Cha, Chatel?”
“Because I’m big. I almost got murdered. My father tried to stop me. “He was murdered.”
A light shimmered in Chatelle’s eyes.
“I want to change, Simon Pollentia. As you.”
Simon pointed at himself with a surprised expression.
“me?”
“You are the commander of the army of betrayal. He started in a much more difficult situation than me. People pointing fingers. Anger and blame.”
Simon’s pupils shook as he listened to the story.
“But he didn’t break down and proudly revealed himself. Now recognized by everyone. Receive. If possible, even the commander of the treacherous army. Even giants-”
A strong will flashed in Chatel’s eyes.
“possible. “I want to imitate you.”
Simon felt his heart pounding. I never thought Chatel would have been thinking like this. She always thought she didn’t know what she was thinking, but she was actually thinking deeply.
As Chatel puts it, he was almost murdered as a child for being ‘too big a kid’. This is because the image of giants as monsters is strong.
However, if a half-giant person himself made his name known by performing on the stage in front of everyone in the Dark Alliance, the residents’ perception of other giants or half-giant people living in the Dark Alliance could change.
He also had a mission. And the motivation behind that mission was Simon himself.
“I understand what you mean. But to be a bit realistic, you can’t enter the Rune League with just a mission. “We must win.”
“said. Symptom. temporary.”
Chatel’s eyes lit up.
“I am definitely helpful.” * * *
The next morning.
Superintendent Meadow called all the students together.
“From now on, we will announce the 10 regular members who will participate in the Rune League.”
Meadow opened the document and continued speaking.
“The order of regular members was measured based on not only their performance in this camp training, but also their achievements such as school grades and mission grades that they have accumulated so far.”
The students murmured with nervous faces.
“I’m nervous!”
Camivarez trembled with his hands clasped together. Meilin was trying to smile, but the corners of her mouth were slightly stiff.
There was tension on deck. Hector had his arms crossed, and Elijah was dazed. Jamie was half covering her face, and Craig was flirting with confidence.
The sailors and instructors also came out and watched with smiling faces. In the background, Dick was taking pictures of this with a magic camera.
“No matter how much it may be just an honor, I can’t help but give number 1 to this person.”
Meadow’s eyes looked straight to one side.
“Dark Coalition Representative No. 1, Simon Pollentia.”

Oooh!
also!
Enthusiastic cheers erupted from all directions.
“Well, of course.”
“then!”
Other representatives were also happy and congratulated him. This was the result that everyone expected and it was a natural reaction, but only Hector tasted it as if he was disappointed. Meilin smiled and looked at him.
“Did you think it was going to be serious?”
“… … “Shut up.”
Simon responded to the applauding people with a smile. Meadow then sang the next song.
“Next, Dark Alliance Representative No. 2.”
Meadow smiled and turned her head.
“This is Hector Moore.”
This time there was a slightly surprised reaction. His keygen ranking is 5th overall, but his performance in Loharon after becoming a corps commander was so overwhelming that he won Rune League number 2.
“Congratulations, Hector.”
Simon said with a smile. Hector also seemed to be happy this time, but the corners of his mouth slightly turned up, but he snorted calmly.
“The match starts now.”
“then.”
Next, familiar names were called.
“Dark Coalition Representative Number 3, Azel Bringer! “Dark Alliance Representative Number 4, Chatelle Maere!”
The turn immediately below was also occupied by familiar strong players. When Chatel’s name came up, there was some concern, but everyone congratulated him.
Simon nodded in satisfaction.
‘Lord Meadows didn’t intend to use Chatel.’
Simon persuaded him. If he failed, he would be criticized by the people of the entire continent, but he also intended to take responsibility for his choices.
The sailors’ voices rang in my ears.
“Seeing it again, it still stands out. “I don’t think we can lose.”
“Okay then.”
The subsequent order flowed almost like the order of seats in Keygen.
No. 5 Maylin Villenne and No. 6 Elisa Celine, who can be said to be traditional powerhouses.
Number 7 Elijah Crovis, who was left out in the Messiah match but made a great performance in the Remnant match.
And No. 8 Jules Vincere and No. 9 Claudia Menzies, who were in poor condition at the beginning of training camp but are now somewhat established.
And number 10, the joker card.
“Camivarez Ursula!”
I settled down to the last camibarez.
Although she is a blood flow magician, she can also perform the role of a healing magician, which is rare among necromancers, so she became a regular member.
While all the crew members were cheering by smiling broadly or raising their arms, only Craig, the Hound Kid, was furious and kicked a nearby chair.
“All 10 people are Keygen? “Do you think this makes sense?”
He raised his voice, straightening the veins on his neck.
“I didn’t do it according to my ability, it was all planned out! Do you think you can win without me in charge of the curse?”
Meadow said after hearing that.
“I also wanted to consider CEO Craig as a regular member, but your camp training performance was not up to par to begin with.”
“what?”
Elisa was the first to burst into laughter, and the surroundings became a sea of laughter. When Craig, whose face turned red, insisted that he should check it, Meadow obediently handed over the data recording her grades and continued talking.
“The following are the three preliminary candidates.”
Reserve No. 1 Genard.
Reserve No. 2 Jamie Victoria.
Reserve No. 3 Ivy Goldbean.
In Zenard’s case, he worried a lot about Meadow and Simone until the very end. Because he is a person who has some level of resistance to divinity.
Remove the chatel and add the génard.
Or, remove Claudia or Jules, who are not in 100% condition, and add Zenar.
To be honest, even in Simon’s opinion, there might be severe opposition from other kingdoms to go with 10 Keygen members, so politically, it seemed right to take a step back and remove one other member and add Zenar.
However, his mind changed after the detailed list of the 10 members of the Holy Federation arrived.
-The Holy Federation has ‘Hand of God’ and ‘Photon of the Iron Wall’. If this happens, it will be difficult to fight power against power in the first place.
-then… … .
In the end, I made a strategic decision and placed Claudia instead of Jenard. The poisonous magician is superior in creating variables on the battlefield, and her teamwork is also better.
There may not be resistance, but Simon was confident that this was the best member, regardless of his personal feelings. He tilted his head and looked up at the sunny sky.
‘This is the right way to win.’
At the beginning of the training camp, it was thought that the four Hound Kids might occupy four of the 10 seats. At least I thought Prince Henrik would come in, but he showed an incredibly poor judgment of the situation in Loharon and resigned. It went around and around and it ended up being Keygen again.
As Simon was exhaling lightly, Jane’s face suddenly appeared and he smiled.
‘In the end, it turned out as the professor said.’ * * *
There was one force that wanted the success of the Rune League between the Dark Federation and the Holy Federation more than anyone else.
It was a neutral zone.
Because of its desperate geographical location between the two powerful powers, the Union and the Federation, the Neutral Zone was wracked with countless conflicts and local wars.
However, this Rune League, which could improve the relationship between the two forces even a little, was an important opportunity for them.
The leader of the Neutral Zone decided to provide all the venues to hold the Rune League and was willing to even support the costs incurred.
So currently.
floating.
Floating. Floating.
Ahead of the Rune League, a grand event was being held in the neutral zone.
This is the ‘Cave of Beginnings’, a particularly historic place even in the neutral zone.
The sound of a wooden flute that I had never heard of rang out, and people in traditional costumes were dancing on the stage.
Horok.
And Jane, Vice President of Kizen, who was sitting at the head table, was watching the dance while drinking tea from a cup with a bored expression.
Even though it was a local tradition, dancing and music were quite boring. At least I’m here as a representative of the Dark Alliance, so I’m looking around to save face.
“You seem bored.”
A voice as soft and elegant as velvet rang out. As Jane moved her eyes with an expressionless face, she saw Isra Phil, the Saint of the Divine Sea, sitting at the head table on the Holy Federation side opposite her.
Jane said in a crooked voice.
“Isn’t it that way?”
“Oh my gosh, even if it looks like I’m dozing off, my eyes are always closed.”
Israfil responded jokingly and looked at the people next to Jane. The powerful figures of the Dark Alliance, including the elders of Kizen, were clapping their hands and having fun. Unlike the two relatively young people, it seems to be a stage suited to the tastes of the elderly.
“The Witch of Death didn’t come this time?”
“The Pope over there has a heavy butt, so shouldn’t we match this too?”
Israfil tried to use diplomatic rhetoric, but unlike Nephthys, who accepted it well, Jane responded aggressively.
There was a lot of vigilance.
It seemed like he was trying to hold back his words until the full-fledged Rune League discussion began. Israfil concludes like that and looks at the boring stage again.
“Rune League preliminary mission proposed by the Holy Federation.”
This time it was Jane who spoke.
“I heard about a goblin called ‘Messiah’ who was hiding in Loharon. How dare you have us deal with something like that? “Sky Island’s plot is still the same.”
Israfil also smiled brightly.
“The Witch of Death gave permission for this? The Dark Alliance is the ancient undead that cannot be formed into an army, and the existence of ‘Morgula’ was hidden and entrusted with a purification mission.”
Each person’s eyes were focused on the central stage, but the words they were saying were moving back and forth toward each other like they were memorized.
“I followed Nephthys’ wishes, but I was opposed to holding the Rune League from the beginning.”
Jane clenched her chin and picked up a piece of fruit on her plate.
“Regardless of these reasons, it is an absurd idea to maintain peace on the continent through competition between students. In the first place, the Rune League is also a proxy war, and peace achieved through war is contradictory.”
“It’s a typical middle manager’s mindset.”
Israfil laughed softly.
“If it’s always like that, the world won’t change. The Witch of Death’s unique childlike ideas and ability to act were the driving force behind the Dark Alliance’s innovation. “It will happen this time too.”
“If you say so.”
Jane unfolded a document with the tips of her long fingers.
“They put that ‘Hand of God’ as the representative of the Holy Federation.”
“… … .”
This time, Israfil, who had continued to respond, remained silent.
“When I received the list, I felt malice. He is a direct subordinate of the Vatican and is the son of the previous Pope. Without him, there would be a gap in ‘duty’, and the interpretation of the holy relics on Sky Island would be delayed. “He takes such risks and still sends evil forces out of control.”
Jane’s expression became cold.
“They only call for peace in the future, but their true intentions seem to be different.”
“The internal situation is complicated, so I can’t tell you everything. Still, I believe that Saint Lethe will control it well.”
After saying that, Israfil’s eyes suddenly opened.
“There are 20 candidates for the Dark Alliance, including those called Hound Kids who have been trained to kill humans since the age of 5. Which one is urgent and which one has unclear true intentions?”
Jane answered with a smile.
“Similarly, the internal situation here is complicated, so I can’t tell you everything, but if they hadn’t added to the camp training, the Rune League itself wouldn’t have been able to be held.”
Although it was only a moment, Israfil and Jane felt a sense of kinship with each other as managers.
“And Hound Kids won’t be a regular member in the end.”
Jane continued speaking, leaning deeply against the back of the chair.
“Whether it is pure ability, teamwork, or personality, our Keygen students are superior.”
“Oh my, you are so confident. “Can students who studied in school for two and a half years defeat a soldier who has been killing since he was five years old?”
“yes.”
Jane said as if stating the obvious.
“Who taught you?”
At that time, the stage ended with loud applause. Jane and Israfil also applauded calmly. Soon, the voice of a loudspeaker was heard.
<Vice-Chancellor Jane of the Dark Alliance and Saint Israfil of the Holy Federation, please come forward!>
The two people stood up at the same time.
In the soon-to-be-opened Rune League, the most important choice is at hand.
