Episode 229. Reorganization Day (8)
To be honest, I was really depressed about a lot of things these days, but that depressed mood disappeared in an instant.
what? The only truth in this world?
You still can’t figure out where you are and you’re talking nonsense like that.
They say that a person’s inner self will not change even if he or she only polishes his or her brain, and what the old people said is not wrong.
Calm down your excited mind for a moment,
I turned my attention to the situation unfolding before my eyes.
Eshel and Princess Arin are manifesting the power of the holy sword Durandark.
Looking at the way the swords are clashing, it seems like the foolish princess showed her power first in hopes of overcoming the owner of the holy sword.
Well, it is true that it is much more sophisticated than the power seen in Aquizel.
At best, it’s just a clone, and it’s actually not enough to surpass Durandark, the source of its power.
I don’t think it’s something that can’t be done.
The fact that it is being rubbed to this extent shows how little progress the owner of the holy sword has made in the past seven years.
I, who couldn’t see it, jumped up lightly and swung my sword, separating the two people.
“Si, Sian! “When did you come?”
“I just arrived. “Sorry for being a little late.”
I stepped forward, holding her back in confusion.
“It’s been a while, Sian.”
Eshel greeted me first with an unconcerned look on her face.
The gentle smile, so gentle that it was hard to believe it was a meeting between enemies, made me feel so sick, but I didn’t show it for now.
“Have you been well, brother?”
“That’s a cruel question. “Don’t you know better that I wouldn’t have done that?”
Although it contained laughter, there was a sharp blade inside.
Even though he seemed to be answering normally, I could feel in his eyes and voice that he was slightly trembling.
Now he is dizzy with anxiety and anger.
“What did you do to the woman who went to see you?”
He was referring to Mia.
“If I hadn’t gone somewhere on my own, I would still be in the Imperial Library. It looks like you put a lot of effort into making it, so I left it alive for now… … Honestly, I was disappointed.”
“Disappointment?”
He laughed and asked back, as if it was ridiculous.
“Did you prepare that one doll for the past seven years to make me submit? Not the previous owner of the Demon Sword, but his descendant? “I’m sure I told you to do everything you can, right?”
“Know. I also didn’t think he would beat you, but I also didn’t think he would get through this easily. Surely this wasn’t my plan? And because of you, my plans are getting more and more ruined. draft.”
well? You say that, but I haven’t done anything right yet?
If you say something like that to someone who hasn’t shown anything to you yet, isn’t this bound to make you feel embarrassed?
-Kugugung!
Just as I was about to ask what I was so dissatisfied with, I heard a huge roar coming from directly in front of me, exactly at 11 o’clock.
With a ray of lightning.
It wasn’t a lightning strike in a dry sky, it was a sudden lightning strike.
Although the weather is gloomy today, strictly speaking, it is not a naturally occurring lightning strike.
It is an artificial thunderbolt created with magical power, that is, magic.
Magic is magic, but it is also important to know where that lightning struck.
If my eyes are not mistaken, that is the assembly hall where the imperial family’s event is currently taking place.
“… … !”
Not only I, but he and Princess Arin could not hide their surprise.
In other words, there is no one here who predicted that situation.
The culprit who struck the lightning was roughly guessed.
“It’s God’s Strike, a high-level light attribute magic. “I think there’s only one person in that place who can use that magic.”
The emperor’s child, and the holder of light-attribute magical power, who is considered to have inherited his magical talent the best.
Violet Sebellus.
There was no one else but her.
“Didn’t the princess tell you that I went there?”
“What did you do to Princess Violet?”
What did you do?
A very small amount of mana was injected into her body.
There’s nothing to say about that.
There may be a slight rejection reaction from the body, but it is not particularly life-threatening.
Moreover, he did not use any magic or trivial tricks.
“I just sowed doubt.”
Humans are animals born with cunning.
You always hope that only good things happen to you, and at least you hope that the person you like only looks at you.
Princess Violet.
From the moment we reunited in her room, I could feel it right away.
The immense madness, obsession, and desire for only himself to be looked at towards Eshel.
If it were an ordinary person, she would have already spewed out all over the place, but to preserve the dignity of the princess, she barely held it back.
Didn’t they say that if you hold back anything, you’ll get sick?
Out of mutual help, I only added a little emotion to help her satisfy her needs.
This is probably how Violet feels after that lightning strike.
‘Now that Eshel is gone, I have to solve everything myself. Only then will he look back at himself.’

This is truly a tearful affection.
I can’t help but laugh because it reminds me of a fool who did the same thing in my past life.
“Why?”
He lowered his head and sighed, then asked me again.
“I didn’t do anything to you. draft. You did not exist in the future I originally dreamed of. As the incompetent youngest child of the Berthe family, he was destined to be left behind without any attention! “Why do you keep appearing in front of me and interfering with my plans?”
Look.
This sad, heartbreaking sight.
It is a very humane sight for a person pushed to the edge of a cliff to scream excessively in order to deny the given situation.
Yeah, you’re not wrong either.
In the first place, I was a worthless being in the family, no, I didn’t even need to be in the family.
You didn’t show any interest in me from the beginning because I had no power or talent.
but,
“Didn’t I tell you?”
“… … !”
“I am a person who knows very well the true nature of my older brother. “I know that the future you dream of is not a good future for me, so how could I not stand in your way?”
He must have been so moved by my answer that he didn’t say anything.
After a short period of silence,
“haha… … .”
What came out of his mouth was none other than laughter.
“You look like me. draft.”
Have I gone crazy?
“You are saying terrible things.”
“There is no need to deny it. you look like me They don’t trust others and are always wary of what’s around them. They view human beings very negatively, preferring to show their natural malice rather than showing favor without reason. Therefore, they feel no compunction about using and killing humans.”
I thought it wasn’t wrong, so I decided to continue listening for now.
“Conscientiousness and goodness that all human beings must protect. I didn’t know why I had to keep it. However, they say that protecting it is the order of the world. So I tried to protect it to some extent. But you make me realize how meaningless it is.”
The light of the holy sword that had been turned off for a while began to brighten again.
Eshel slowly lifted the holy sword upward.
“If my plan was ruined because of you, it would be right to get rid of you and start over again. But I won’t do that.”
“Then what do you plan to do?”
“I am someone who wants to rise to the highest position a human can reach. “Don’t you have the right to reach that place without being able to subjugate even a single human being like yourself?”
Light radiated from the tip of the holy sword rising into the sky.
The emitted light scattered in all directions, and for an instant, the soul of the blond-haired holy sword fluttered before my eyes for a moment and then immediately disappeared.
“I admit it, Sian. Even now, 7 years later, I still can’t beat you. What’s the point in having a power that I can’t defeat? So that power was shared. “Let everyone aim their swords at you, not just me!”
-Whoop!
At that moment, a sword flew out from behind my back.
I lightly swerved to avoid it, but I couldn’t hide my embarrassment.
The person who swung the sword was none other than Princess Arin.
“Now, wait a minute, Xian! “This is not my will!”
She was denying the situation with a confused face, as if it was not her intention.
“Something! “I keep making my body move!”
Princess Arin was unable to control herself and was shaking like crazy.
It seemed as if someone invisible was forcibly pulling on her body.
-Tap-tap-tap-tap
As soon as she finished speaking, the sound of heavy, unidentifiable footsteps rang in my ears.
The gaze naturally returned to this.
The moment I discovered the image of someone unfamiliar in that gaze,
“… … !”
I blinked.
A dazzling armor that shines with the light of the sun.
A solemn and majestic force emanating from it.
Even the vivid imperial emblem embedded in one corner of the chest.
There was only one person in this imperial castle, or rather in this empire, who could wear such weapons.
“Oh, Abama?”
Emperor of the Empire. Dione Sebellus.
His sword was clearly displaying golden magic similar to that of a holy sword.
* * *
“Please protect us from the coming danger!”
As soon as the spell was cast, a huge white shield appeared in the air.
-Pazy!
The lightning struck the shield instead of the ground, and sparks flew out in all directions, and only after the light spread so much that it was impossible to open the eyes did it gradually calm down.
Jereon breathed a sigh of relief in what was truly a close situation.
People were just dumbfounded by the unexpected sight.
“Is Captain Jereon protecting the assassins now?”
“no! You protected Princess Arin and us! “If it weren’t for that shield, we would definitely have been harmed!”
“Rain, Princess Violet, are you really serious?”
The assassins were equally embarrassed.
Since the magic was so sudden, there was no room to avoid or block it.
Thanks to Jereon’s quick response, I was able to survive.
“… … .”
Soon the assassins looked at each other and exchanged glances for a moment.
-tuk
Suddenly, Princess Arin was thrown onto the platform and disappeared, engulfed in black fog.
The knights looked at Gereon and Violet alternately, not knowing what to do.
However, Violette’s face was already so severely distorted that it seemed impossible to make normal judgments.
“Please take Princess Violet to me.”
Jereon did not panic and calmly gave instructions.
“What are you doing, Jereon! The assassins ran away because of you! “Why are you interfering with my work?”
It’s best to get rid of it in front of people quickly before it gets even worse.
Jereon didn’t care and approached Princess Arin, who had been thrown out alone. As expected, it was a fake.
It was just an artificial corpse elaborately decorated with magic.
The knights who ran together were astonished.
“Is this enough money to save time?”
Since they had not discovered their true purpose, it was nothing but futility for Jereon.
“Jereon, what should I do with this?”
What is the use of asking for instructions from someone who has no command authority?
However, knowing that it was an unavoidable situation, I gave instructions based on my experience as a leader.
“The first thing to do is to calm people down. Please let me know that Princess Arin is safe and that she has nothing to worry about. “Let’s just end the inquiry.”
The knights bowed in silence and immediately left.
The moment Gereon was about to get up,
-Peeeee!
Suddenly, a golden glow rose from the west, accompanied by an unfamiliar sound.
That must be the direction where the Hwangseong Library is located.
For a moment, everyone was confused by the unknown situation.
“… … !”
Some of the knights seemed to suddenly stop in their tracks, and suddenly began to twist their bodies around.
“W-what is it?”
“Mo, is your body acting as it wants all of a sudden?”
One thing they had in common was that each of the knights’ swords as they twisted their bodies had a golden glow.
It wasn’t just the Imperial Army and the Knights of Salvation.
When I turned my gaze from the podium and looked down, I saw that several people watching the assembly were also twisting their bodies in the same way.
Most of them were dedicated knights of nobles who came from each territory for a meeting.
For a while, situations that were more bizarre than bizarre continued.
“… … .”
The bodies of the knights who were exhibiting abnormalities suddenly became as hard as stone.
Their eyes soon turned towards the Imperial Library, where a golden glow appeared, and they seemed not to listen to anyone’s words or orders.
“For salvation… … .”
They all started running towards there, muttering unknown words.
