Episode 127 destiny (5)
The dungeons of Berniam Palace.
The basement, which had been empty for a long time, became full after the Revans Rebellion.
All of them were blood relatives of the nobles who participated in the Revans Rebellion.
The King of France was forgiving to the ordinary soldiers who participated in the rebellion, but was merciless to the nobles.
In fact, it was something that should not be forgiven.
If you forgive them like this, the same thing could happen at any time.
Grumble-.
The sound of snoring echoed loudly in the silence of the prison.
Inside the moonlit prison, a scattered monster was leaning against the wall.
He is none other than Revans.
He looked like a ruined man, and there was nothing to be seen of the powerful man who ruled the French kingdom in the past.
New liquid New liquid -.
Only the small sound of his breathing showed that he was still alive.
Revans, who had been motionless for a while, slowly raised his head.
Gray, dead eyes were visible through greasy hair.
He recalled his conversation with the king on the day he was taken to prison.
[Why don’t you kill me! why! Kill me right now!]
[Don’t worry. Because I will definitely die. But your death will be used to restore the country that was in disarray because of you.]
[…] … .]
This is what the king said to Revans, who glared at him with burning eyes.
[I trusted you. If you are you, you will be able to straighten this country that is falling apart.]
[I am… I did my best. But nothing changed! No matter how much you treat the wound, what is the use of it? The flesh continues to rot away! What I did… It was cutting out rotten flesh! Only then will new skin grow!]
[Okay, how could you have thought that? But still. The knife that cuts out the rotten flesh has turned red and rusty. Can new flesh grow properly?]
[What are you saying… … .]
[Didn’t you understand? Revans, who was full of guns in the past, has already died a long time ago? What remains here now is… It’s just a monster with a stinking smell.]
[…] … ?!]
[The day of hanging will be set soon. until then… Think about it. What is the difference between you now and the rotten nobles you criticized?]
With those words, the King left the prison.
Afterwards, Revans continued to worry.
Every time he denied it.
‘That can’t be possible. Everything I was going to do was for this country!’
A raspy voice came out of Revanth’s mouth, which had not been opened for a long time.
“I am… A choice for everyone… “I just did it.”
His voice rang softly in the silence of the prison.
That moment.
“… “They’re criticizing me.”
A bitter voice flowed into Revans ears.
Revans turned his head.
The owner of the voice was a prisoner in the prison across from him.
A man with a face as dirty as himself.
Revans gave him a curious look.
“who… “You mean it?”
“… “Do you not even know who I am?”
Revans kept his mouth shut.
As the man said, it was because he did not know who he was.
The man said his name as if he was dumbfounded.
“It’s Baron Mitro.”
“… … .”
“Well, there’s no way someone as great as Chancellor Revance would recognize a baron like me.”
“… “What do you want to say?”
“What great thing do you think you have done? So many people followed you to create the new world you dream of? “That’s not even funny.”
“… … ?”
“The reason so many people joined your plan… It was because I was afraid. “If it goes against your will, I will cut it off right away, from the very beginning. What noble would say that they don’t like it?”
Revans shuddered his shoulders.
Baron Mitro’s words, full of anger and resentment, cut into Revance’s heart.
“It was grand at first. Are you going to create a world where talented people are treated preferentially? Yes, that makes sense. but… That’s just bullshit from those who have it! “Think of the blood this country shed because it was deceived by your absurd ideas!”
“I am… I am… … .”
“It was a choice for everyone? Don’t be funny. It was a choice for you, not for everyone! You and those who called themselves committee members! In the end, the rotten pigs of the old world were driven out and more greedy ones took their place!”
“… … ?!”
Revanth’s pupils shook greatly at the man’s scream.
“Tsk tsk, I’m crazy too. I can’t believe I trusted a guy like that and entrusted my future to him, even just for a moment… … .”
The man burst into laughter as if he had lost his mind.
After that, his voice was not heard.
The man turned his back and lay down as if he didn’t want to see Revans.
Faced with this, Revanth’s eyes were filled with futility and emptiness.
‘Is that so…? Was it… … .’
Many things passed through Revans mind.

Acquaintances who congratulated him for being born as a commoner and entering the royal palace.
First meeting with Page.
Afterwards, the young days when I chased after my dream and the great frustration I had to experience.
The years of being consumed by anger and walking down a bloody path.
After reminiscing for a long time, Revans raised his head.
There was skepticism in his eyes as he looked at the moon beyond the iron bars.
“I am… I am… “Where have you been heading until now?”
He stood up with a small mutter.
For a moment, clouds covered the moon.
dump-.
Something fell out of the darkness.
* * *
Jeopuk-.
Lois, who was walking along with Favreau and Paige, asked with surprised eyes.
“Dead?”
“yes.”
“how?”
“They say he took off his pants and hung himself in prison.”
The news that Favreau and Page brought was that Revans had taken his own life.
“Tsk, how did you do the surveillance?”
Lois frowned slightly.
‘It’s meaningless.’
It was an extremely meaningless ending for someone who ruled a kingdom.
On the one hand, I could understand his extreme choice.
‘It must have been quite a shock because something I had no doubt about would succeed failed.’
If things had gone as planned, Revans would have swallowed up the Kingdom of France.
That too easily.
In fact, his preparations were perfect, and the power gap between the King and Revans could not be easily bridged.
If it weren’t for Lois, Revans would have occupied the throne by now.
‘The fall of someone who dreamed of the throne… … .’
Lois shook off her thoughts.
Whether Revans was dead or not was now of little concern to him.
Instead, he asked questioningly.
“But where are you going now?”
Favreau and Paige came to see him a while ago.
They left the palace together, saying they had something to show Lois.
The group entered the forest adjacent to the royal palace.
It seemed like we had walked quite a bit, but they were still walking.
That’s why I couldn’t help but be curious.
What on earth are Favreau and Page trying to show?
To Lois’ question, Paige smiled and answered.
“Just follow along.”
“… “Just pretend it’s no big deal.”
Lois answered poignantly.
I think I walked for about 5 minutes after that.
An old cabin appeared.
Favreau and Paige took Lois in there.
The inside of the cabin was full of light dust, as if no one had visited it in a while.
Lois’ face becomes sullen at this.
“Surely what you’re trying to show me isn’t this dusty hut?”
In response to Lois’ barbed question, Paige just laughed and tore up the floor of the cabin.
Then a hidden space was revealed.
“Ohh?”
When a place that seemed like a secret space appeared, Lois also showed interest.
Fabro, who had prepared a torch, was the first to step into the underground space.
As they went down the narrow stairs in a row, what appeared in front of them was a large underground space.
“This place… … ?”
A look crossed Lois’s eyes.
‘It is an artificially created space.’
In what looked like an underground cave, traces of artificial manipulation were visible here and there.
That was quite a long time ago.
After that, the group walked in silence.
After a while.
“It’s here.”
“uh? This?!”
My eyes widened when I saw Lois appear in front of me.
What appeared in front of him was a flat and spacious space about 2 pyeong (about 2 square meters).
Of course, Lois couldn’t have been surprised to see that.
What surprised him was the engraving on the floor of the large space.
Lois shouted with a shocked face.
“Space movement Beopjin?!”
Fabro and Page prepared with confidence.
It was none other than a space movement beopjin.
“this… “How are you here?”
In the original worldview, spatial movement was a high-level sacred method that was not easily accessible.
You must be at least the top tier to be able to perform short-distance spatial movement, and in order to perform long-distance spatial movement, commonly referred to as teleportation, even a top-tier mage needed a long time of effort.
Surprised, Lois quickly ran towards the space movement beopjin.
He was surprised once again when he saw the engraving on the floor.
“… “It’s huge.”
Although I could not completely interpret the space movement beopjin, it was not an ordinary beopjin.
Lois urgently raised her head.
Page, who caught his gaze, smiled and responded.
“This was an emergency escape line passed down from generation to generation in our royal family.”
“… … ?!”
“Twenty years ago, how did Captain Greg and I go to the Autumn Continent to avoid the eyes of Revans everywhere?”
“I’m asking just in case… “Where is this connected to?”
“The Autumn Continent.”
“Is it a fixed coordinate value?”
“yes that’s right.”
“under… … .”
An exclamation burst from Lois’ mouth.
Isn’t this a greater legal force than you might think?
he asked with full interest.
“how… “How can something like this happen here?”
“It is said that Dermist I, who founded the Kingdom of France, asked an unknown wise man with whom he was close to make it. but… … .”
Page’s face slowly darkens.
Lois seemed to know what the cause was.
Lois asked before Paige could finish speaking.
“Is this disposable?”
“yes.”
Paige nodded with a bitter expression.
The king was willing to give up for himself an emergency defense force that had not been used for hundreds of years.
This is the last lifeline of the French royal family, which has not been used even once for hundreds of years: a disposable court.
While Paige was thankful for her father’s choice at the time, Lois was busy examining the court.
‘This is not just a disposable beomjin.’
If the beopjin was truly disposable, all traces would have disappeared as soon as it was used.
However, the temple in front of me was maintaining its intact form.
Nevertheless, the reason why this beopjin was called disposable was simple.
This is because the spatial attribute power charged in the Beopjin was enough to be used only once.
Say that again.
‘It means you can use it again if you just fill up the space attribute!’
Excitement filled Lois’ eyes.
Although it is a fixed mobile beopjin that connects the summer continent and the fall continent, it is said to be a beopjin that has the ability to travel between at least one continent.
‘if… If only the coordinate values could be modified… … .’
If only that would happen.
‘You can get home right away!’
The excitement in Lois’ eyes reached its peak.
At that moment, Lois made a decision.
Even if it takes several days, I will fill this space with the attribute power to operate the Beopjin.
He asked after calming down his excitement.
“How did you get the idea to show me this?”
“Mr. Fabro said so. “I want to be of some help to Prince Lois.”
Paige looked back at Favreau with a happy face.
When he was suddenly mentioned, Fabreau looked away awkwardly and muttered.
“Hmm, I was originally supposed to take you to the Spring Continent… “Shouldn’t we complete our mission at least this way?”
Page smiled brightly at this and continued.
“Mr. Fabro asked His Majesty if there was an airship… “Is it possible for something like that to exist in our kingdom?”
“so?”
“At that time, this just came to mind. If Confucius has the skills… I was wondering if I could at least modify it and use it… … .”
Paige asked cautiously, her voice trailing off.
“Can you write it?”
Lois answered that question with a bright smile.
“of course! of course!”
He gave Favreau and Paige a thumbs up.
