Chapter 456: Reincarnated as a Genius of the Most Talented Family
329. God’s Fire (1)
After the mysterious man left, Count Lebedev started collecting the charred corpses of his subordinates.
Death is no longer a special thing after the war, but that doesn’t mean that leaving dead bodies unattended is acceptable.
“Write a letter to the bereaved family and reconfirm the identities. Also prepare a simple military funeral.”
“Understood, Count.”
It was very fortunate that this was possible, apart from the dead.
Because if we had been so careful, we would have all been burned to death.
Now, which of these people could possibly face even one of those dead priests?
It explodes with flames and burns everything in all directions.
‘If it weren’t for that guy… … .’
My thoughts naturally turned to the man who had left earlier.
A secret group said to be run by the imperial family.
I was able to experience the grandeur of the imperial family while feeling anew that it was truly amazing.
Indeed, it’s not like you’re just sitting back and doing nothing.
On the other hand, a strange question also arose.
Even to Count Lebedev, who was not familiar with the man’s level of power, it seemed enormous.
“Hey, you.”
Count Lebedev, remembering this, asked a lieutenant officer standing next to him.
“Yes, Count.”
“Can you cut a fireball with a sword?”
“… … Are you asking the impossible right now?”
“Yes, that’s right. It’s impossible. In normal cases.”
Perhaps it might be possible for the few ‘Great Warriors’ or lower-level warriors in Dranek.
But even they would find it difficult to do it so carelessly and simply.
There…….
“I… I don’t know how to explain it. What do you think about what that man did?”
“… … .”
The officer couldn’t answer easily.
It’s not that I’m choosing my answers carefully.
Because it was not a level of force that could be recognized and answered.
“Honestly, I don’t know.”
“Even you? You’re still quite an accomplished warrior, aren’t you?”
“It’s all relative. In my opinion, I don’t think I could even last two minutes against that guy.”
“Ugh.”
“I’ll correct that. I think you need a lot of luck with the first sum to get to the second sum.”
To become a lieutenant-level officer, that is, a lieutenant in the warrior branch, it takes at least 15 years of training.
How can someone like that say something like that?
‘If there are people like that all over the place… … the imperial palace is truly a scary place.’
The Draenic Imperial Family.
He said he’s been suffering from the restraint of the nobles recently, but it seems he’s deliberately allowing himself to be subjected to it.
If we utilize those with such power, we will be able to suppress the noble forces in one fell swoop.
It was a moment when many misunderstandings unintentionally piled up.
This misunderstanding was not limited to Count Lebedev.
“Are you here, Major?”
“Hmm. Count Lebedev.”
Major Morozov, who came running in a hurry and then reacted bewildered to the situation that had already been resolved.
“What happened?”
Major Morozov’s face became even more bewildered as Count Lebedev poured out his words as if he had been waiting for them.
“… … What did you say?”
Even if he is a temporary commander and only has the title of count instead of a separate rank, a count is still a count.
But I couldn’t help but tremble in front of a major.
Rank is rank, but being promoted to the rank of major in the warrior branch means that the person himself is no different from a weapon.
Therefore, Count Lebedev quickly added:
“That, that. Thanks to that, I was able to save my life, and also because of that… … .”
“So, are you saying that you not only sent away someone whose identity had not been confirmed, but also kindly loaded the corpse onto the horse?”
“… … .”
“Martial law is ridiculous, Count Lebedev.”
In the end, Count Lebedev had no choice but to speak his mind.
“… …Actually, it seemed like he was sent by the royal family.”
“The Imperial Family?”
“Yes. I heard something. That, why. You know? There’s a unit that’s secretly run by the imperial family.”
“… … .”
Major Morozov swallowed the silence for a moment.
Of course I’ve heard of it.
It’s a half-open secret that everyone who knows knows.
In that case, Count Lebedev’s absurd explanation above can be understood to some extent… … .
‘You cut the fireball with a sword and suppressed the opponent’s energy?’

Is there such a thing as ridiculous?
Even adding-
“He literally subdued his opponent in the blink of an eye and even took his weapon away from him.”
It is said.
Even the officers next to him said the same thing in unison.
Unless Count Lebedev had paid her to kiss him, it would be safe to assume it was real… … .
“Is it true that the royal family group that was only rumored existed?”
Major Morozov sighed.
It’s surprising that there are religious groups talking about the ‘fire of God’, but this is even more surprising in the current situation.
‘This is not an ordinary thing.’
If this becomes known, it will probably cause a huge stir not only in the military but also in the noble society.
Some may hide their bodies, some may die while installing the installation.
It would be hard to find that kind of force even in the military.
As the misunderstanding grew further, Major Morozov asked:
“Did all the soldiers see this?”
“That’s right.”
“It’s just a matter of time before word spreads.”
There’s no stopping rumors from spreading.
There will probably be a big wave soon.
It was definitely the royal family’s intention.
Otherwise, there would be no reason for a group that had been talked about for a long time to show up now.
‘The power of the nobles has become too strong.’
It must have been the Emperor’s decision.
Major Morozov spoke with almost certainty.
“It would be better not to cause confusion by giving the soldiers a separate notice. For now, let’s just settle this matter as we were doing.”
“All right.”
An officer approached at that moment.
“What should I do with the body of that priest from earlier?”
Major Morozov asked absentmindedly.
“Is there anything unusual about the body?”
“Yes? It doesn’t look like there’s anything separate or that could be used as evidence or information.”
“Then let’s just leave it as is for now. Even if we investigate and report it, it won’t have much meaning.”
The priest of fire who has been pushed to the back burner at some point.
and-
“By the way, weren’t you on an excavation mission, Count?”
“Oh, that’s right. Things got so crazy that I forgot about it for a moment… … .”
“Count! Count!”
Good news comes out of nowhere.
“You, I found the entrance to the ruins!”
“Oh oh!”
Actually, the good news only ended here.
“Ha, but… … it’s already open… … .”
“what……?”
“There are already traces of someone being inside… … .”
“… … .”
And from now on it was rainy.

First of all, horses are animals that cost a lot of money.
The amount of food and water they drink is enormous, and they need a lot of management.
As it is a living thing, it requires a lot of effort to handle, and it needs to be made suitable for various purposes through periodic training.
That’s why words are expensive.
Whether it’s Alteon or Draenic, horse thieves are punished by being thrown in prison and sentenced to life imprisonment.
Even more so if it’s a military horse.
Although military law is originally strict, if you intentionally kill or steal a military horse, you are subject to death.
But Dane ‘accepted’ such a steed.
“What on earth did you do?”
“They just gave it to me when I asked.”
“You have to make sense. Hey, you were shaking when I saw you. Did you take a hostage or something?”
“No way.”
Dane gave a rough explanation, grinning, while Professor Cross shook his head.
“Now you have the talent of a storyteller. How many talents do you have?”
And yet I was amazed.
“By the way, you did a good job. Of course, mentioning the royal family will go down well. If you get caught, you’re finished, but that won’t happen, right?”
“That’s what I was aiming for.”
“We’re not even Draenic. It’s even stranger that you look like one.”
Dane smiled faintly.
Actually, it’s not a made-up story.
I just added the rumors I heard in my past life.
This is the very rumor that Major Morozov and Count Lebedev know about.
It was a trick he had hatched because he knew the rumor.
Thanks to him, I got that expensive steed and also got a clue about the curious vision magic.
So what if the clue is a living person?
‘If this story gets to the royal family, there’ll probably be a huge mess. Did this guy expect that?’
If you know Danes, you probably know this.
But it’s even more suspicious because he’s Dane.
He’s a guy whose true meaning is unknown.
Sometimes, isn’t it the Dane guy who surpasses even his own thoughts?
‘Well, it’ll work out somehow.’
Anyway, I obtained a warhorse in an unimaginable way and captured a guy who called himself a priest of fire, so there is no better achievement than this.
But before that, there’s something we need to check.
“Thank you for your hard work, Mini Golem. And Karnas too.”
“Kkuruk!”
[Dane Sogres, this Karnas guy seems like a pretty good assistant.]
“Creak? Creak!”
[Ma, please stop!]
Karnas rushes to treat him as an assistant and grabs the mini golem.
[Cancel, cancel! I will make you a great partner, not an assistant.]
“Kkireuk.”
Only then did Karnas release the mini golem.
Well, it looks like we helped each other out pretty well and completed the mission.
The mission is to enter Decanius’ laboratory and retrieve key items and materials.
[When I mentioned the items and materials, Karnas brought them and put them in my subspace.]
The description of the mini golem was exactly like this.
Next, it is said that Karnas flew here carrying a mini golem.
This collaboration was possible because it was the mini golem and mini dragon Karnas who knew the laboratory inside out, as they were created by Dekanius.
Thanks to this, Dane and Professor Cross were able to obtain traces of the precious Arcana.
And it’s not disorganized, fragmented information, but data that was well organized by a wizard named Decanius.
“Those Draconic guys, they must be causing quite a ruckus.”
“You wouldn’t even think that we’re the culprits. Oh, would you be a little suspicious, Professor?”
“What are you talking about? I’m just a war merchant.”
Anyway, the two of them giggled a bit and then looked through the data.
“Hmm. How do you read this?”
“This is called ‘doing it that way.’”
“That wasn’t a very good sentence. The handwriting looks pretty. How on earth do you read it?”
“Well, I don’t really understand the principle either.”
Meanwhile, the mini golem also continued to lend its strength from the side without resting.
[Dane Sogres, this should be categorized this way. It fits into this research category.]
When it was first discovered by Dane’s party, there was a bit of data loss, so they are now trying to recover the data.
“Overall, there is a lot of research on vision magic?”
[Yes. In Arcana, it was called ‘traditional magic’. The meaning is the same. However, unlike Alteon, each wizard had several traditional magics, and there was active exchange and research on these, so there were many cases where traditional magic became ‘ordinary magic’.]
It is truly a magical kingdom.
Well, it’s not like magic is ‘precious’.
If it is so common and has permeated our daily lives, then it would be natural.
“Then what about this?”
Then, Dane happened to remember and told him about the magic of the priest he had encountered earlier and who was now captured.
[Hmm, in that case… … Please wait a moment.]
The mini golem seemed to be calculating and remained silent, which made Professor Cross drool for some reason.
“I wish I had an assistant like that.”
“Take one.”
“I already have a guy I like, but I don’t think he’ll listen to me.”
“That’s too bad.”
“You, you.”
While the two were bickering, the mini golem’s calculations were quickly completed.
[Dane Sogres, quite interesting.]
And he came up with a pretty mouth-watering answer.
[I guess the magic in question is a traditional magic that was lost in the Arcana and could not be found.]
