Episode 228. Cogwheel.
One of Philip’s modified monsters secretly joined Rox’s unit and made contact with the dragon.
Not only that, but in order to save the dying Rox, he passed on his skills to Howl, one of the dragons. Philip is not a fool to give away the knowledge he risked his entire life for so easily, but judging by the fact that he does this, he says that if he did not step forward, Rox could have really died.
‘Still, I’m glad.’
Because I saved Rox, the key to my operation.
After hearing the whole story, I gave Rox a firm answer.
“Let Philip do whatever he does.”
Where he is and what he does is not what we should care about. I have no choice but to trust Philip, who everyone calls a traitor, and leave it to me.
This is because there is no one else who can be my hands and feet and move me now.
I couldn’t answer the question on Rox.
This is because Philip is currently executing a plan so delicate and complex that he has to deceive everyone except himself to succeed.
I have no choice but to tell Rox that he should just trust me and accept this situation, neither positive nor negative.
“There’s no reason, just do what I tell you.”
“… Well, if that’s you, I have nothing to say. Is he on our side? That Philip’s modified monster guy. “After chatting with the dragons, they brought me my severed body and disappeared.”
If you disappear now, all plans will go wrong.
Of course, Rox doesn’t know about this. The fact that he is the key that can shake up the tower. Ordin, Baphomet, and Dragon are also about my unexpected numbers.
I asked, lightly massaging his shoulder.
“So are you feeling okay?”
“Yes, I actually feel lighter than before. “The arm and leg joints are incredibly light!”
“I guess so. The cut off part must have been remade using his alchemy.
No matter how much of a demon’s body you have, you will not be able to match the modification technology he is creating now. “Because some of the subjects Philip studied included your blood.”
“Among the apostles, those who show a friendly attitude toward us have all gathered data, so if you wait a little longer, they will bring finished and modified monsters to fight Ordin.”
“… “Isn’t that dangerous?”
“It means that if he betrays us, we will have to deal with the modified monster called the finished product.”
Of course, if Philip deceived me and did something like that, that could happen. However, he has a medium that cannot betray me.
Tower is watching this conversation right now, so I can’t tell Rox, but I finished the conversation about what I know about his past from my past life and what his purpose is here.
I explained to Rox in a loud voice so that everyone could hear that even though I was betrayed by Philip, I trusted him and that even if things went wrong, we could resolve them.
I don’t know how many apostles will hear my voice, but I hope this reaches Ordin.
Let the seeds of misunderstanding grow and strangle the true traitor.
“I’ll take care of it, so you take care of your recovery.”
“By the way, is Brunhild still there?”
“Yes, I was in contact with Cynthia and her group until I made contact with them. I was suddenly attacked by that Amon guy… .”
“It was right before I got hit, so it was probably about half a day ago.”
If so, it doesn’t deviate much from the time I expected.
According to previous calculations, they should have already arrived at the Legion.
I don’t know what happened, but I’m sure there was a problem.
‘It’s frustrating because I can’t leave here now.’
As I was looking into the distance with a serious expression, Siegfried flew around in front of my eyes and asked.
“What are you so worried about? “If Brunhild went there himself, there would be no one who could stop him.”
“Just in case.”
“I don’t know what.”
“I’m afraid that someone powerful enough to pose a threat to Brunhild will stop them. If Theresia is alive, her problems will be complicated by her Ordin side, so wouldn’t you try to use her hands to deal with her again somehow?”
“Absolutely not.”
“I think Amon has another agenda.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“If that fox-like bastard had really tried to kill Theresia, he would have cut off her head right then and there. “I don’t know where, but she left after seeing him die at the decisive battle site.”
After listening to the explanation, I sat down on the steps in front of the fountain and continued to ask questions.
“I heard there was a hole in your heart as big as your fist.”
“So what’s the point? If there is a hole in your heart, you die. This doesn’t even work with healing spells or healing skills.”
“Don’t you remember how the guy you lost survived his fight with you? “He got stabbed in the heart by you too, but he survived.”
“It’s thanks to being selected as an apostle and receiving new life-”
“So think about what the conditions are for receiving that new life!”
I knew the answer to this without even thinking deeply.
Not only did Jin explain it to me directly, but Baphomet and Brunhild also mentioned it.
“Two hearts.”
“Yes, that’s it. You stupid disciple. “I need you to explain it like this so I can understand.”
“So theresa also has two hearts?”
“I guess there are only two. “I once heard from Brunhild that she should have died when she sang the forbidden song.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“I don’t know exactly either. “It seems that there is something beyond death in that body of white panties called Theresia.”
“Something beyond death?”
“Yes, as the god of the sword, I carefully predict that there is probably something in her body…” .”
Siegfried put his hands together and made the shape of a pair of briefs with a meaningful expression.
“Isn’t there a secret weapon you left behind when you were called Bor? That’s why Ordin is trying to stop it somehow.”
I swung my sword and cut off his dirty-looking palm.
“That is one of the seven songs that save all people, and the forbidden spell that humans should not use that Baphomet warned us about. “It is Bor’s legacy, which is called the power of God.”
“I know. I’m not stupid so don’t explain it like that. What I mean is, there must be more secrets hidden in that song.”
“Hidden secret?”

“Who else is Ordin keeping in check besides you and Jin?”
“Emperor? No, he is already dead, so should we say that he is the emperor’s children?”
“no! Think carefully. “Why did Ordin, who is so powerful, fail to attack Strange until you grew up, and what did he take from you?”
“And how he moved after he took it.”
It felt like I got hit in the head with something.
I thought this old man was really an idiot, but I can’t believe he made such sharp deductions.
I answered him by clapping my hands lightly.
“My mother, Verdandi.”
“So you’re saying she and Theresia are related?”
“Not just Theresia, but everyone who can sing that song. “I heard that Ordin found the tower with Albus and killed Joanna Arc?”
This is a secret.
Even if it is a mistake, it is a story that should not be heard by others.
I nodded slightly without answering him.
“Thank you, Master. “Thanks to you, I feel like I’ve been able to turn over a full page of paper and move on to a new story.”
“I can’t believe the words ‘thank you’ are coming out of your mouth. “I’m so moved that my pants are shaking.”
Rox, who was between me and Siegfried, tilted his head.
“What are you talking about for so long with that perverted old man? Also, they say they won’t teach you swordsmanship if you don’t show them your underwear?”
I answered with a smile after finding a new answer through my conversation with Siegfried.
“No, it’s not like that. When you get to the top of the tower, one of the things you have to do increases. “I thought about what to do for a while.”
The secrets of this world await at the top of the tower.
And about things that can only be solved there.
“Black dragon?”
Cynthia saw a black dragon poking its face through the dark clouds.
I never would have thought that among Albus’s servants, Numbers, there would be someone with such abilities.
Not only did she feel both embarrassment and bewilderment at the same time, but the moment she made eye contact with the dragon, her body froze with fear.
‘How can a dragon with a human body?’
Could it be that he gained that kind of power through the power of an apostle, like Strange’s knight who had similar abilities earlier?
She swallowed. But she didn’t think about running away from the flames.
The size of the flames was so large that no matter how fast I walked, I couldn’t escape from this spot.
‘If it cannot be avoided, it must be prevented.’
Cynthia changed the direction of the holy chain surrounding Numbers’ body and wrapped it around the carriage where Theresia was. As the sparkling white chains came together and formed a circular shape, the aura flowing from within them gave off an intense light.
‘Is this how it ends?’
Cynthia closed her eyes tightly as she watched the flames getting closer and closer. She ultimately chose death because she could not avoid the enemy’s attack in this situation, and because she could not run away alone, leaving Theresia and Gangrat behind.
‘sorry.’
Verdin’s face flashed through her mind.
‘I am too inadequate to be with you.’
Not only this, but my desperate heart created auditory hallucinations.
“I came.”
The way a cat speaks is as if it were using human language.
‘Now that it’s time to die, I’m starting to hear nonsense.’
“ruler! “Stay next to me, I’ll take care of that fake dragon.”
‘A cat fights a dragon. This is a really funny story, right? ‘I guess it could happen because it’s a dream.’
“Hey you stupid bitch. “What are you doing like an idiot and closing your eyes when the enemy is attacking you?”
‘I wish I were stronger. If there is a next life, I will be born as a stronger woman so that I can help you.’
“Open your eyes quickly and avoid this way!”
‘I don’t think I can go to the top of the tower with you this time.’
“Come to your senses, bitch, you can pray later!”
‘It would have been nice to have seen your face one last time.’
Cynthia slowly opened her eyes and saw the ring on her finger.
“If I had, I could have told you how I feel.”
“My heart is so damn sick, if you don’t want to be left behind, come here right now!!”
A hand came out from behind Cynthia’s back, the blue transparent collar fluttering.
“If it weren’t for Verdin’s request, I would never have helped you.”
Then, someone pulled her shoulder hard and made her hide behind the huge ice.
A swirling snow storm began to block the pouring flames.
“Because I’m a really bad girl.”
