Episode 245
a spectacular return
“Are you asking me to go with you?”
King Yulho responded that he never thought he would be asked such a question.
That’s because, having stayed here of his own free will, he wouldn’t have even thought about going outside.
Elric nodded deeply.
“What am I going to do if I’m stuck here? It’s been a while since I got some fresh air outside and ate some delicious food. “If I need to, I can go to the black snow fields.”
“And if something difficult happens, do you ask me for a favor?”
“It goes both ways. Give and take, don’t you know?”
King Yulho looked at him with a puzzled expression, but Elric just crossed his arms and shrugged his shoulders.
King Yulho shook his head as if he could not stop him.
“Anyway, trying to eat it raw is still the same as before.”
『It hasn’t happened in a day or two, so it’s not new… 』
Mephisto, who was looking tired next to me, nodded in agreement, but was forced to fall into the curse of handstand tap dancing again.
“Anyway, how are you? “It’s actually boring to wait for descendants to come here.”
Elric’s eyes, looking at King Yulho, were filled with enthusiasm.
I feel like I want to get him out of here somehow.
Of course, for Elric, it was very unfortunate to leave King Yulho here.
Should we say that it is a waste of resources?
The thought form left behind by a being who reached the level of a demi-god has been devoted to meditation for the past hundreds of years, saying he was bored. If he could pass on the knowledge contained in his head, it could be of great help to Elric and the beastman tribe in the future.
‘If only I received the improved Gangseojutsu technique… Ugh, huh huh!’
In addition, if necessary, it can be used as a military resource, and it can also be a very important mentor to King Velence, who is just starting to grow.
More than anything… Although King Yulho was very short, he was a person who presented a very big milestone for Elric.
I felt a little regretful about just breaking up with someone like that.
King Yulho looked at Elric with stars pouring out of his eyes and shook his head, his face grim.
“I don’t necessarily want to be trapped here, but… hmm!”
“So, let’s go out? “If you don’t like going out as much as you think, I’ll take you this way.”
“At that time, you’re going to make all kinds of excuses and keep putting it off?”
Elric flinched internally, but waved his hand without showing it outwardly.
“Hey, you were just fooled.”
“It’s just that your bastards are clearly visible.”
Of course, King Yulho was still on top of Elric’s head.
Still, he immediately curled up one corner of his mouth, looking like he was being fooled.
“Is there a way?”
Elric pounded his chest with his fist.
“Who am I? You’re the Mervinger of the world, right? That’s easy. “Only the chieftain allows it.”
“hmm… !”
King Yulho thought for a moment and then glanced around the inside of the cave.
I had a lot of worries about suddenly leaving the place I had stayed for a long time without any preparation.
Several incidents that occurred here also passed through my mind.
Although they were all very small and trivial, they made his daily life enjoyable.
Throw it away and start a new life?
‘It won’t be bad.’
King Yulho thought that was okay in its own way.
The main body has already achieved enlightenment and gone somewhere.
The person who remained here has now become a completely different and separate entity from him.
Since the ‘will’ that bound this body disappeared a little while ago, it wouldn’t be a bad idea for him to live his own life now.
As Elric said, I was also curious about how the outside world had changed over hundreds of years… .
“good. “What should I do?”
As if he knew this would happen, Elric extended his hand to King Yulho.
“Take my hand.”
King Yulho’s expression hardened slightly.
“I don’t have any hobbies like that?”
“… Do you think I have such a thing? I also like women. Anyway, stop talking nonsense and catch me!”
“Sure.”
King Yulho held Elric’s hand.
That moment.
Hahaha!
A craze began to spread around Elric.
The magic power that had been oppressed by the image world installed by King Yulho was completely released.
For a moment, surprise spread across King Yulho’s face.
‘When did you solve it?’
The image world installed throughout the safe house originally had the property of binding all energy based on mana according to his will.
There was a reason to test Elric’s skills, but it was also to prevent concerns that unauthorized outsiders could enter and ruin the functions of the safe house.
And he has not yet withdrawn his ‘will’.
However, Elric had suddenly thrown away all such restrictions.
‘I saw that some were released a little while ago… I thought that alone was brave.’
Because of that, King Yulho had no choice but to look at Elric with new eyes.

It occurred to me that perhaps I may have pioneered a field that is superior to Gangseojutsu in other fields.
‘No, no, no. That doesn’t work. In any case, Gangseojutsu should be placed at the forefront.’
As King Yulho followed Elric, he couldn’t help but have a strong desire to leave behind his strong body techniques.
flinch!
For a moment, Elric saw a strange heat in King Yulho’s eyes, and for a moment he wondered if this choice was right for him.
‘it will work out somehow.’
With that thought in mind, I activated the mantra.
“【Soak in】.”
With Elric’s shout.
Kukukuku… !
The entire safe house began to shake.
King Yulho’s thought body that remains here is exactly like the entire world of images is like his physical body.
In order to take him, it was necessary to ‘contain’ this whole world in oneself.
If he made a mistake, King Yulho’s thoughts could flood his unconscious world and he could lose his sense of self.
‘No worries about that.’
Elric has already expanded his unconscious world at random, saying he wants to catch Azazel.
I thought I could easily do this.
just as expected.
Tsutsutsutsu-
Soon, the huge air current that was covering the safe house began to pour in this direction.
As the transparent barrier became clearer, it began to break into pieces and create a whirlwind, and a huge gust of wind swept across the floor of the cavity, raising a rough cloud of dust.
As all of that rained down on Elric at a furious speed, King Yulho’s body also began to disintegrate little by little.
“You meant to put it inside you.”
“You won’t be bored. “There are a lot of people inside.”
I’m talking about Chapter 6, Winter Awakens with the Seal of Winter.
I also thought that they could be good opponents for King Yulho.
Maybe King Yulho will help keep the two remaining people who are still proud of their arrogance.
A smile spread across King Yulho’s face.
“That’s interesting.”
With those words, his being shattered and everything poured out onto Elric.
Hwaaaah!
A gust of wind covered the entire safe house.
* * *
When Elric returned, dawn had sunken deep.
Although it must have only been a few hours in actual time, to Elric it felt like several days had passed.
That was probably because, unlike when I visited the safe house, I had another family.
“This is Vienna City?”
All the while jumping around on the roofs of tall buildings.
King Yulho looked down at the ground for a long time through Elric’s eyes.
“It’s quiet. very.”
King Yulho found that very surprising.
Until the time he was active, the city of Bjorn boasted enormous grandeur as the second largest city on the continent.
“Because so much time has passed.”
“okay. There is nothing perfect and permanent in this world, so it is natural… . Still, what do you think happened? The air is also subtly different.”
Elric, thinking that King Yulho was quick to notice, briefly explained the situation he was experiencing.
“It’s a war. Also a demon? “They haven’t changed from before or now.”
As much as he hated magic, which created phenomena that were difficult to understand for the beastmen, he also hated demons.
Rather, it was closer to contempt.
Unlike ordinary living beings, they are nothing more than a magical phenomenon, so they only appear as ghosts in their eyes.
‘I feel like I have a trustworthy ally.’
While thinking about this, Elric’s eyes lit up slightly.
Far away.
Someone was sitting quietly on the roof of the highest watchtower of the fortress where the Star Wars were staying, watching the night sky.
The way he was quietly looking at the moon seemed to be drawing something.
‘Nameless?’
Elric was able to quickly realize that he was a ghost in a wooden mask.
He is currently being held prisoner.
Therefore, it was appropriate to place personal restraints on him, but Elric did not specifically tie up Nameless.
This was because Isabel was of the opinion that he should be treated well since he was a talented person who could try to escape if he wanted to, and since he was trying to appease the Red Lion.
Of course, I was confident that I could catch him even if he ran away.
At that time, Nameless must have felt Elric’s gaze as well, and happened to be turning his head in this direction.
widely!
“What are you doing out here on a moonlit night?”
Elric was still talking to Nameless.
I thought about raising it to an honorific level, but I thought there was no need to change the way I spoke once I decided on it.
Nameless looked as if he was going to answer Elric’s question or not, but it was obvious that Elric would be bothered if he ignored it, so he gave a short answer.
“Thinking of my hometown.”
“hometown?”
Elric tilted his head.
Now that I think about it, Elric sometimes thought that Nameless’s tone of voice was very slurred.
It feels like I am using a foreign language that is not easily spoken, rather than a local dialect.
Judging by his accent and atmosphere, he was clearly not from the Empire.
“Where is it?”
“You wouldn’t know even if I told you.”
“Southern?”
“If I had, I wouldn’t have been involved in this damn empire.”
“hmm?”
Elric tilted his head, but Nameless turned his gaze back to the moon as if he had nothing more to say in response.
At that time, King Yulho suddenly spoke quietly.
“This guy smells a bit like us?”
A word I never thought of.
Elric’s eyes widened slightly.
“Beast people?”
At that moment, Nameless’s eyes hurriedly turned towards Elric.
Two wide-open eyes.
The corners of Elric’s mouth curled up.
“I don’t think they are complete beastmen. Are you mixed race or did you inherit blood from that group?”
“How did you… ?”
“Because I am close to the beast people.”
Nameless jumped up from his seat as if he wanted to say something, but couldn’t.
Suddenly, a crow flew towards where they were.
Food!
A crow with a letter neatly tied to one ankle.
It was the crow that Elric had chased after Count Calliger before.
Nameless also looked nervous for a moment. Because I knew very well who this crow was following.
Elric scratched the crow under the chin a couple of times, thanking him for his hard work, then untied the book tied to his ankle and read its contents.
Very short and concise writing.
Then he folded it quietly, looked back at Nameless, and said.
“Your friend said he wanted to see me?”
Wizard who swallowed talent
