Part 2 Episode 59
Shiro
Kwaaaaang!
Suddenly, Elric and Mephisto’s gaze turned upward at the sound of an explosion heard from above.
On top of a vaguely visible cliff. Wizards including Gai and Yook Mangseong were winning against assassins from other ghost castles.
In particular, I couldn’t help but click my tongue at the basic magic that Guy casually threw out.
Fireball, magic missile, mana ball… .
Although it was clearly something that only beginners could learn, somehow, in Guy’s hands, it was showing more power than most bombing magics.
You’ve really lost your power, right?
『Get stronger quickly.』
Then, Elric frowned at Mephisto’s words.
[What kind of nonsense is that all of a sudden?]
『You have to get stronger so I can compete with that guy!』
Without waiting for Elric to respond, he turned his head and looked at Guy.
『It is clear that this era is truly unique. It was natural that there were many strong people during the time when King Bon was active. Because it was a time when mythology was with humans. Dragons were alive and breathing, and giants were running across the land. It was a time when it was not strange at all for gods to interact with humans.』
Mephisto was always curious.
A thousand years ago, when the Four Worlds and the Great Demon Kings were active, and the current era when humans and demons fought the final battle.
The difference between the two eras.
『But it’s different now. The dragons became extinct, and the giants disappeared. The gods also returned to the sky where they were. Superstitions are slowly fading away, and magic is now facing new changes through the eyes of reason and rationality.』
I explored and pondered for a long time, and finally came to a conclusion.
To begin with, the two eras were completely different worlds.
『Nevertheless, there are unanswered questions. There are so many talented people that only existed in the old mythical era… !』
Guy.
Augustine.
golden lion.
All of them were strong enough to stimulate the arrogant Mephisto’s desire to win.
But here is what Elric said.
Besides them, there are countless other strong people that I haven’t met yet.
『So, hurry up and complete winter and spring, and prepare the four seasons. This king too… I want to breathe together.』
“… .”
Elric couldn’t say anything for a moment.
In a way, it was like Mephisto revealing his true feelings for the first time.
It means wanting to smell the same air.
The lingering effect of saying that I wanted to become a person who lived in this era, rather than someone who lived only in history, was that strong.
“… “Please wait a moment.”
Therefore, Elric could not dismiss this as a simple joke like usual.
You had to treat sincerity with sincerity.
“It won’t take long.”
As soon as this is over, I will go straight to open the summer tomb.
Elric swallowed those words to himself.
The reason I came to directly subdue the ghost ship was to hear information about the tomb of my ancestors that they may have opened.
What he wanted was the fulfillment of his family’s long-standing wish, not power.
The intention was to move as soon as that goal was accomplished.
“OK. Don’t wait for that time to come.』
About the time a satisfied smile appeared on Mephisto’s lips.
Elric looked back toward the ancestral castle lord.
There was no longer any playfulness in his green eyes.
Even the previous lord of the castle had to swallow dry saliva when he saw it.
“There are two things you need to say. One is about dispel. And one other thing… !”
Information about the tombs of our ancestors that you robbed.
That was when Elric was about to say that.
Kukukuku… !
Suddenly, a huge earthquake began to shake the canyon.
Cheonjamsa Temple was shaking, and rocks and rainwater were pouring down. Everyone, including wizards and assassins, looked surprised and looked downward.
From the bottom of a canyon as black as an abyss… Something was detected.
Elric’s eyes couldn’t help but turn towards that direction.
-Heh, heh heh… ! Hahaha! Well, is this what happens in the end… !
Then, when the shoulders of the previous castle lord suddenly began to shake, Elric narrowed his eyes. She wondered why she was like this.
Was he being insincere?
-Did you ask how a high-level dispel can be activated with such a wide bandwidth?
A cold smile suddenly appeared on the face of the previous castle lord.
Fear and cynicism. A face with a complex mix of emotions that don’t seem to fit at all.
-That’s exactly why.
“what?”
There was a separate barrier technique in the canyon, not the main temple of the Ghost Castle?
That moment.
Breaking through the surface of darkness in the canyon, something began to rise.
That much made the canyon tremble more violently.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
It was a huge flying ship.
“What is that again?”
“There was something like that hidden again?”
The war mages were scared and scattered in all directions, fearing they might be swept away by the airship.
Fortunately or unfortunately, the application of dispel was incomplete while the airship was in operation, so I was able to quickly create an opportunity to dodge.
Elric also looked at it blankly.
A flying ship.
Doing something that is only possible in fantasy?
Moreover, the size of the ship was not ordinary.
It is so enormous that it can contain a couple of fairly large castles.
Not only was the sense of intimidation emanating from it no joke, but the magical engineering surrounding the ship was so vast and deep that it could not be measured.
“… “You can’t put a ship in the sky.”
“That was possible?”
“What principle did you apply?”
The Six Stars also looked dumbfounded when they saw the airship that appeared out of nowhere.
Some people exclaimed their admiration without even realizing it.
It was such an incredible item that even the pioneers of the Magic Tower, who are said to lead the world’s magic knowledge, could not possibly understand it.
But at the same time, I couldn’t just be amazed.
“What on earth have you been doing all this time?”
Guy swallowed his sleep as he watched the airship completely pass through the canyon and reach the sky.
Perhaps, the magic skills that the Inspection Bureau has developed so far may be superior to those of the Magic Tower.
Or, he may have taken out a relic from a mythical era that has not yet been revealed to the world.
Whatever it was, it seemed clear that the Inspection Bureau was ahead of the Magic Tower in terms of technology.
Naturally, such an uncomfortable truth inevitably weighs heavily on one’s heart.
but.
It wasn’t just Gai and Yuk Mang-seong who were surprised.
『… under! You’re going crazy!』
Mephisto’s expression wasn’t good either.
[Do you know anything about that?]
It’s probably not because he’s worried about the Magic Tower.
『Because I saw that damn thing again.』
Again?
At that moment, something crossed Elric’s mind.
As his expression hardened, Mephisto nodded curtly.
『It seems certain that your ancestor’s tomb has been opened.』
“… !”
Elric clenched his fists tightly.
What was probably true eventually turned out to be true.
Moreover, the fact that such an object was created based on the technology excavated from the tomb of our ancestors meant that the restoration of the old Mervinger technology was already almost complete.
It was not an easy thing to see.
『That airship was originally a ‘villa’ that ‘Yeoreum’ enjoyed riding. Do you know how irritated it was to have to drag all the dragons around, which was already a pain in the ass from having to apply so many high-power magics?』
summer.
One of the four seasons was mentioned.
The arrangement that Elric was planning to open next.
『So it’s impossible not to remember! If it passes by, everything will be ruined! And if you look at yourself resting comfortably… Ugh! Even thinking about it now!』
‘Summer’, which Mephisto had heard fragmentarily, was the strongest being among the four seasons.
Summer means hot, and in fact, she was a flame-type mage who could freely manipulate fire.
Of course, its attack power and destructive power are incomparable to those of the other four seasons.
Even the founder had to give up in front of her?
The legacy of that summer has appeared.
It was definitely not something that could be easily tolerated.
I couldn’t talk to him because of the dispel, but I felt that he was also angry at Chapter 6 of Winter.
『Fortunately, it doesn’t seem like the technology has been restored enough to build a ‘fleet’… It’s true that that alone is huge. It won’t be easy to deal with, right?』
It was at that time when Elric’s expression hardened.
[Ah, ah – microphone test.]
Suddenly, a powerful woman’s voice was heard from the airship that had stopped taking flight in the very center of the sky.
[Elric Mervinger. Guy Neresta. In addition to that, the other six stars of the Magic Tower. Even though we knew where this place was, we gathered together well.]
Elric, the other six-pointed stars, the war mages, and even the ghost castle assassins all stopped fighting and looked blankly upward.
The battle was already in a lull.
“That voice… ?”
“why? Do you recognize the voice?』
“yes.”
Although it was a bit noisy, I couldn’t tell.
“This is the princess.”
Cromhel’s wife and the Golden Lion’s daughter was there.
And the other wizards in the magic tower who noticed this also had to harden their impressions.
The fact that the princess came forward meant that the Sajagong family also came forward. It meant that their plan to take over the ghost castle before Cromhell and Liongongga came forward had failed.
[This is an area specially managed by the imperial family and the main family. Invading this place also means taunting the imperial family and the main family. So, I recommend everyone to go back now. If not -.]
Jiiiing-
A powerful sound of motors sounded from the airship, and a force field was added to the barrier covering the canyon.
As the dispel magic intensified, it put a heavy burden on the shoulders of all wizards.
“Sigh!”
“Ugh… ! Where on earth did you get this technology? !”
With blood gushing out of the wizards’ eyes.
It’s difficult to exert strength… army.
Crackling, crackling!
Hyul, who had helped Elric and the others in both material and spiritual ways, also became blurred, as if he would soon disappear.
In addition to magical energy, dispel was in operation.
Crash-
Elric had to feel helpless, as if all the magic circuits and seals were tightly barred and locked.
‘how… !’
Elric bit his lower lip.
Everything!
Dozens of guns hanging from the airship were all aimed towards the canyon.
Wooooow!
Firepower began to gather from the port.
Paradoxically, the heat emanating from there was enough to give the wizards chills.
[I will kill everyone.]
There was not a hint of hesitation in Shiro’s voice.
At that moment, Elric knew.
What those guns were targeting wasn’t a canyon or a magic tower.
as soon as.
‘it’s me.’
It was himself.
Wizard who swallowed talent
