I became the youngest prince in the novel Episode 172
Chapter 45 Tower of Cause and Effect (12)
A divine device.
It was a term used to refer to a weapon that was at the highest level among mythical weapons containing stories of gods and that directly represented a single god.
Therefore, in order for a mortal, not an immortal, to become the owner of such a sacred weapon, appropriate qualifications were needed.
Of course, it was very difficult to obtain that qualification.
As evidence, throughout the history of mankind, the number of subjects who have been recognized as divine powers has been so small that they can be counted within five fingers.
And now,
‘This place… … .’
In order to be recognized for such qualifications, Zion entered the mental world created by Muspelheim, the Ten Thousand Armored Man.
Muspelheim was a sacred weapon representing Loki, the god of fire and mischief.
Perhaps the ‘synchronization with Yeomcheon’ that the trial assistant mentioned a little while ago is the process and test for recognition of qualifications.
‘And the test will be that.’
Thinking like that, Shion raises his head and looks upward.
In the eyes of Zion,
—————–!
In that endless mental world, bright red flames were falling towards him, burning the entire sky.
Just looking at that fiery sky was giving off a heat that felt like it would burn your soul.
Even a person with a mental strength of steel would instantly disappear the moment he is swept up in that ‘flame spring’.
In comparison, the sight of Zion standing alone on the empty land looked dangerous, as if it would burn up at any moment.
‘It sure looks difficult.’
It is on a different level from other weapons tests.
But when Shion thought that, his eyes were extremely peaceful.
There was no way he couldn’t pass the test that Magnus Flare, the first hero, had also passed in the first place.
And this place… … .
sssss-
It was a mental world, not reality.
The darkness flowing from Zion’s entire body begins to spread across the earth in all directions at an insane speed.
And finally, at the moment when such darkness covers the entire earth, coo coo coo coo!
An infinite army emerged from the darkness and soared toward the sky of flame.
Rather, it is a force that spreads even wider than the flames and takes the form of encompassing the sky.
The moment the speed of the flames that had been falling down as if flinching from the unimaginable force slowed down, the emperor’s army finally swallowed up the sky.
* * *
The voice of the ordeal assistant rings in my ears.
At the same time, the sight inside the iron gate before the woman’s eyes was completely different from before she returned.
‘entire… … ‘Are you frozen?’
A cave covered in pure white frost, as if you were at the extreme end of the North.
The bottom of the cavity was entirely made up of lakes, which were also frozen solid.
and,
Quang!
As the iron gate closed with a loud sound, something slowly began to rise in the center of the lake.
A woman whose entire body is made of ice from head to toe.
Inside the woman’s transparent chest, an unpleasant black lump was throbbing just by looking at it.
‘The remnants of the Frost Queen tainted by evil… … .’
The eyes of the woman, Flosimar, who was looking at that scene were shaking violently.
I couldn’t understand at all what was happening.
Why was the difficulty of the trial changed to extreme, and why did a being that was not seen before the return appear?
‘And what about the trial assistant’s last words…? … .’
I didn’t know what kind of being the ‘King of Fire’ meant, but I was more concerned about the word Bertie behind it.
It was unclear how strong the entity known as the ‘Remnant of the Frost Queen’ was, but as they said, the trial helpers had judged that they could not deal with that entity on their own.
at that time,
Kyaaa!
The remnants of the Frost Queen, who had fully recovered, let out a loud cry.
A cry that is more like a monster than a human.
Blah blah blah!
With a terrifying chill bursting from him, -20 minutes remain until the Fire King arrives.
The voice of the helper was heard in the ears of all participants in the ordeal.
And it also signaled the start of the battle.
“Ugh! Stay large! Priests and wizards start with cold defense spells!”
“Hey, I’ve been betting from the moment I came in! But it’s so strong that the spell doesn’t work!”
Participants defended themselves against the cold with expressions of embarrassment as the temperature in the cavity dropped rapidly.
at that time,
Whoa!
As if that wasn’t enough, the remnants began to suck up all the cold air in the cavity, as if preparing something.
“We have to stop it!”
Did he instinctively sense that it would be dangerous if it were activated?
With a loud shout, Rain’s new model was the first to start plowing into the remains.
Other participants began to rush in after Lane with stern expressions.

Ta-da!
Rain, who appeared in front of the remnants in an instant riding on a thunderbolt, plunged his white-hot spear into the remnant’s heart.
however,
Whoops!
The remnant flicked his hand lightly, as if catching an insect, and flicked Rain’s spear away.
When Rain’s body also bounces and stumbles due to the tremendous rebound force that arose from that, Sugagagak!
Lee Woon-gang, the blood sword who appeared from behind the lane, immediately dived into Janjae’s arms and swung his red-stained sword towards Janjae’s neck.
A fantastic strike delivered at exactly the right time without any error.
Lee Woon-kang’s eyes lit up at the sight of Janjae not being able to properly defend himself, but he got a card!
The light soon turned into confusion.
“what… … .”
This was because his sword, which contained almost all of its power, was unable to penetrate any further, leaving only a slight scratch on the remnant’s neck.
Pow!
The remnant hand piercing Lee Woon-kang’s abdomen.
Soon after, the remnant lightly shook off his hand,
Kwaaaaang!
Lee Woon-kang’s body flew at an incredible speed and landed on the surface of the frozen lake.
The sight of Lee Woon-gang stuck and not moving made me think he was dead, but there was no time to look at him like that.
Meanwhile, the cold air around me continued to be sucked into the remnants.
at that time,
“Hmph!”
In the meantime, Turzan appeared right next to him and hit the remnants with his shoulder with the same force he had lunged at.
A strike with the power to collapse even a mountain.
As if it couldn’t be ignored, it used a shield created by transforming some of the cold energy absorbed by the remnants of the Frost Queen to block the giant’s attack.
Tukwaaaaang!
The cracked surface of the lake rises upward with a loud noise as if dozens of bombs exploded at once.
Before the aftereffects could even disappear, Lane, who had corrected his posture again, and Gregory, the newly joined ‘Twelve Seas’ steel soul, simultaneously attacked the remnants in front and behind them with the maximum amount of attack they could make.
Kwajijijijik!
A huge shock wave spread throughout the cavity, combining with the aftermath that occurred first.
To what extent it was effective this time, the remnants of the Frost Queen hesitated and retreated.
“Shit!”
Nevertheless, the cohesive coldness was still alive and well.
“Damn it, stop it!”
It was the moment when the remnants, who had been looking at the desperately running contestants, including Lane, who was spouting profanity, with emotionless eyes, were finally about to burst out with their maximum concentration of coldness.
A sword that pierces the five heavens.
Quad deuk!
Without any warning, the silver-haired woman’s sword appeared above the Frost Queen and pierced the very center of the concentrated cold.
The cold air that scatters away with the core completely shattered.
As if that wasn’t the end, the woman’s sword moved in a graceful curve, seemed to point upwards, and then fell vertically.
Quaaaaaaaaaaa!
The body of the remnant, who raised both hands to block the woman’s sword strike, breaks through the ice and goes down.
At that moment, all the participants who were fighting closely with him, as if they had made an appointment, retreated to the back at the same time.
“Pour it all out!”
Following the shouts of Storm King Richard, another ‘Twelve Seas’, ranged participants, including wizards, began pouring all their prepared attacks towards the remnants pinned to the ground.
Kwagwagwagwagwang!
Weapons, magic, spirits, etc.
Attacks of all kinds and with all kinds of properties are fired only at the evil-tainted remnants, creating an enormous explosion.
and,
A sword that divides the seven seas.
White dragon attack.
Destroying Mount Tai.
—————-!
A strike from a group of warriors that marked the end of such an intensive offensive.
In an instant, the temperature in the cavity, which had fallen below freezing for a long time, soared to a visual level, and the entire field of vision was filled with bright light.
“It’s okay, if it’s this level of power… … !”
An expectant voice comes from the mouth of one of the participants.
The three ‘Twelve Seas’ and those with equivalent or greater power linked up and poured out the most powerful attack.
No matter how much of a monster it is during the final ordeal, it will not be able to survive.
But the expectations of those people are,
-There are 8 minutes left until the Fire King arrives.
It immediately disappeared with the voice of the ordeal assistant ringing in my ears.
Kyaaaaa!
The remnants of the Frost Queen emerge, howling loudly as the explosion slowly clears away.
The body of the remnant was broken here and there, but it looked too healthy to say that it had withstood all the attacks just now.
Before the people who saw it could even react, Tuung!
A wave that started from the remnants of howling began to spread throughout the cavity.
“Don’t touch that wave!!”
Following someone’s shout, the participants quickly defended themselves against the approaching wave, but it was already too late.
Blah blah blah!
A frozen world.
Anyone who tried to block by swinging a weapon kept the weapon.
Anyone who tried to block using a defensive spell is left with the spell intact.
It stands still, completely frozen, like a statue.
Soon after,
Kwazik, kwazizik!
The participants fall apart and meet their end.
“iced coffee… … .”
The participants who managed to survive looked at the scene with devastated faces and let out sounds filled with gloom.
One-third.
It was the percentage of participants who lost their lives in just one wave.
However, as if there was no reason to wait for the participants to come to their senses, wow!
Once again, the remnants of the Frost Queen, stained with evil, began to gather cold air in front of her blackened chest.
“You f*cking ice bastard!”
“Don’t let them use range skills!”
In order to block such remnants, all participants who could move, including the warrior’s group, poured out attacks, but Tuung!
Those attacks were all swept away and disappeared by the second wave, which exploded several times faster than before.
Was it impossible to stop it this time?
At the same time, the bodies of participants touched by the wave immediately freeze and begin to break apart.
A larger number than before.
“How do you do something like that…” … .”
It seemed as if the initial advantage was just an illusion, and despair filled the eyes of those who remained as the victory suddenly waned.
And it was the same for the silver-haired woman.
‘I can’t think of a way to win.’
strong.
So strong.
How to make the attack successful.
How can I protect myself from that cold?
I just couldn’t think of it.
Although he and Turzan, who could be said to be high-level forces of the ‘Seven Heavens’, were doing their best, it was difficult to even hold on.
No matter how evil it was, I couldn’t understand why something that was just a part of the Frost Queen and not the original body was so strong.
If we continue like this, we will be completely wiped out in an instant.
In the woman’s mind, the crisis of death she experienced before her return gradually begins to overlap.
-Two minutes left until the Fire King arrives.
The voice of the trial assistant informs us that there is not much time left until the ‘King of Fire’ arrives.
But the despair in the woman’s eyes did not disappear.
Because I was wondering whether it would be possible to exterminate that being just by adding one more person here.
in between,
Kwaaaaang!
In the end, Lane, who had allowed the remnants to attack, was thrown away at an invisible speed and fell into the wall of the cavity with a loud roar.
“Gagging!”
Lane is pinned down and blood is pouring out of his mouth with the sound of him struggling to breathe.
Starting with that,
Kwasik!
Steel Soul, who had been holding up well for so long, collapsed with a hole in his heart, and Turzan also froze, with white frost falling all over his body.
And finally, as if to put an end to this battle, keaaaaaa!
The remnants of the Frost Queen howled and began to create another wave of cold in front of their chest.
death.
These were the words that came to the eyes of the woman looking at that scene.
And it was also the word that all the other surviving participants were thinking of.
A sword that shatters the six heavens.
Kwak-ga-ga-ga-gak!
Even the woman’s sword strike, which was fired as if in a final struggle, was blocked by hundreds of layers of ice, and the remnants smiled and stretched out their hands forward.
With the despair deepening in the woman’s eyes, the wave of cold that had finally reached its maximum level spread out, threatening to drive all participants to death.
-The King of Fire arrives here.
The voice of the trial assistant rang out in the ears of all the beings there.
* * *
Has time ever stopped?
In the middle of a cavity where perception is accelerated and everything flows extremely slowly.
The being stood.
As if it had been there from the beginning.
The being stood calmly and looked down at everyone else.
The figure looked very ordinary as it did not feel any power, but everyone in the cavity had no doubt that this being was the ‘King of Fire’.
A gentle flame that burns covering the entire being.
Because I couldn’t take my eyes off that flame.
Like a mayfly that flies at the sight of a fire even though it knows it will die.
That flame was forcibly attracting the attention of all life here.
Sreuk-
A wave of coldness that disappears so naturally that it seems as if it is melting.
In the sea of silence that continues with him, the eyes of the ‘King of Fire’ slowly begin to move.
And when the king’s eyes finally turn to the remains, puhwahahaha!
The queen’s frozen cavity began to burn bright red.
fantasy,
