Chapter 589 – 582 Palatum, the Sky City
“Then let’s organize our business in Palatum.”
After morning training, Hwanin gathered her girlfriends together for a meal with the delicacies that Isilite had been working on for the first time in a while.
“What needs to be done in the party area is to visit Palatum’s royal castle, learn labyrinth magic, trap dismantling skills, replace Anne’s equipment related to spirit magic, collect Palatum’s labyrinth information, submit the black magic book obtained from Turad to the church, Securing materials for making Yurpa’s space teleportation magic tool…… Roughly this much.”
Hwanin takes out his notebook and checks what he wrote down.
Among them, the communication correction number received from the princess of the Elwidris family drew attention.
“…….”
Hwanin thought for a moment before drawing a line.
He didn’t have to contact them first. He waited and watched the other side’s reaction, and if he didn’t like it, he’d just bring the whole family together and ask for their sins.
There’s no reason to be considerate of things that happen because the other side can’t contact you.
Then Ayoung flashed! He raised her hand and opened her mouth.
=I know a bit about trap magic, but I have a good understanding! There’s even an Intermediate Trap Disarming License! If you allow me, I’d like to learn the Trap Trap!=
If you take on the role of the party’s recovery magician and even dispel traps, your position in the party will be very solid and your contribution will also increase.
If her contribution to the party increases, the safety and treatment of her family in Yeongdo will also improve, so it is a golden opportunity for Ah-young.
Hwanin thought for a moment at her sky-high enthusiasm, then looked back at Baeknyeogang and asked.
“Baekryeogang. What do you think?”
= Are you saying that I want to learn together? Well, I think it would be good for me to learn the Trap Disarming technique in case Ayeong goes wrong. But the magic trap is a skill that is classified as advanced, but I don’t know anything, can I learn it…… ?=
To her legitimate concern, her phantasmagoria took out her little notebook outlining what she had learned in Farghist and the tools she used to master unlocking locks and laid them down in front of her.
“These are the things I organized in my own way while learning the skills at the Farhist guild. Memorizing the contents of this booklet will help you learn advanced trapping techniques. It’s something you can learn from Ayoung again later.”
=Yes. Then I will study hard.=
As Bai Lijiang took her notebook and lockpicking tools, this time Anne raised her hand slightly and opened her mouth.
=Doryeong, can you put off the purchase of elemental magic equipment for a while?=
“Why?”
=Before that, is it final to submit the black magic book to the Earth God Church?=
“Okay. If you submit it in your name to the Church of the Earth God, your reputation and performance will rise.”
Ah-young’s eyes widen at Hwan-in’s answer. Black magic book? The story that she even fought a black magician?
At his reply, Anne said that it was good, and she laughed.
=I don’t know the exact number, but if you submit the black magic book, you’ll get a lot of church contribution points. I think I can exchange it for better equipment if I return it and the Light of Salvation I have now.=
“Is that enough?”
=Because black magicians are regarded as a potential threat to the entire Nionebreth.=
“Right. If it’s spirit magic equipment, the quality obtained from Merianol and the Church of the Land Gods must be much better……. Then, shall we visit the church together after a while?”
= Yes. Ok.=
At the end of Anne’s conversation, Yu Lepa raises her hand and points to Baekryeogang and Ayeong and asks.
=Darling, when are you going to send Lady Ryogang and Ayoung?=
“The time has not yet been set. I think it will be after she visits the palace in Palatum.”
=Then can I visit the Palatum Mystic Association with Lady Ryegang later? She is selling all the magic tools and magic tools she has made so far, and she is going to buy the materials needed to make the space teleportation magic tools she said earlier. =
“It will be fine. The cost of crafting materials is…….”
= That’s okay If you add the money you’ve made and sold over the years and sold everything you’ve made this time around, it’ll be around 1000 gold coins.=
=Cheer, 1,000 gold coins?!=
= And…….=
The women are greatly surprised by the story of a thousand gold coins. That amount was almost equal to the profits they had earned in the labyrinth up to this point.
Hwanin was also quite surprised. All she entrusted to her was low-level phase stones, and with only those things, she earned 1,000 coins in about a year.
“The 1st to 3rd class phase stones I handed over would be less than 100 gold coins combined. That’s great.”
Under his congratulations, Yu Lepa smiled and waved his hand lightly.
= It’s not that great once you know it. Demand for magic tools and magic tools is concentrated in villages rather than cities and villages, and there is a limit to the amount that can be sold in one place.=
A lot of magic tools and magic tools are sold in the city, but there are just as many rivals. In particular, cooperatives and associations have been established, making it difficult for individuals to develop sales routes.
But since Yurpa traveled with Hwanin and visited every city, village, and village she could see, it was only natural that the sales revenue would skyrocket.
In addition, it is quite common to sell it to Helumen, Prabur, the commanding department of Yeongdo, and the ruling class.
It was a way to sell the name of the Hwanin, but Yurupa had no hesitation. The magic tools and magic tools sold under his name were works that put much effort into quality.
= Above all, you and the ladies supplied all the phase stones, which are the most important material, right? The margin rate is also not comparable to the past, so the money is inevitable. =
“That is also a story when skills support it. Anyway, good job.”
= Yes. After I stop by the guild and buy the necessary ingredients, I’ll settle everything left over.=
Hwanin, who nodded his head slightly, looked back at Isili Te and Baek Ryogang, who were unwilling to take out his words.
“Do Isilite and Baekryeogang have plans to go out?”
=I have nothing other than repairing Redrick Alter and purchasing ingredients for cooking.=
= Well…… I’d like to visit Palatum’s library when I have time. Is that okay?=
“I’ll have a break in the middle, so let’s do it then.”
=Do you have any personal business? You didn’t mention Grimoam’s hat in the plan earlier.=
Anne put down her finished tea and watched Hwanin organize her schedule in her notebook, then she leaned on his shoulder and asked.
“The last artifact is said to be in the possession of a place called Hethrond Sky Exchange. Before stopping by Palatum’s labyrinth, I plan to visit and discuss the deal.”
= Just hearing the name sounds like a hobby for rich people?=
= It’s as Anne said. It is an upper-class Palatum gathering that hires about 5 teams of explorers to collect rare items.=
=Huh~ Wouldn’t it be hard to get what you want from people like that?=
“It’s not uncommon for this side to propose something, so I’m thinking of contacting you first. If not, find another way to deal.”
After the morning meeting, Hwanin handed over the memo to Yurupa, who was about to go out with Baekryeogang and the Mystic Association. It is mainly leather armor for Ayoung to wear.
“Please obtain Ayoung’s equipment options this way.”
= Well. Increased body elasticity, increased stamina, increased strength…… Are you going to use all three functions in one magic weapon? Or separately?=
It is said that thanks to practicing with the leather that Isilite saved, it was possible to bestow a higher level of mystical skills on leather, but Yurpa is not an armor maker.
The armor’s defense power and function follow the skill of the armor maker.
Palatum is also the capital of Heath Lond, and her skill in drinking and law is as good as Meria Nole’s, so she thought of fitting her equipment here.
“Considering the situation of damage to magic tools, it would be better if all parts had the same function. Since this is equipment intended for Baktu, please exclude the accessories on your fingers and wrists.”
= I will take care of the cost?=
“Yes.”
= Yes! Then I’ll be back~.=
After they left, Isilite and Ayeong also went to the market to see the repair of the Redrick Alter and the gauntlet for Ayoung, and Hwanin and Anne went to the cathedral of the Palatum Parish of the Land God Church.
=Over there.=
As she moves along the main road in an emergency as her guide, people’s eyes are drawn like a black hole.
It is because of the color of flight and the aura of Anne, who is riding a coupin next to her.
Anne’s gaze was so terrifying. Before she met Hwanin, she used to gather many eyes in a bad way, so this interest was not very good.
She furrowed her eyebrows inwardly, then looked back at her and gave a small smile.
She must be feeling the attention on him too, but not caring about any of it was literally unrivaled.
= I think it’s fortunate that Doryeong has no aura. =
“Why do you think so?”
=If Bisang and Doryeong’s aura were combined, it would have been difficult to move because of people’s stares. It must have become more popular with women as well?=
“Exactly. If the aura had been revealed from the beginning, my journey would have been completely different from now.”
The distance from Yulkam to Yeongdo is almost the same as that of Palatum. If you go up to the north of the Roatings Jungle, you can head almost straight to Zero Island.
If it was revealed from then on that her own aura was of the spirit art system, her spiritual guidance would immediately send someone to lead her. In the process, Isilite, Elkata, Baekryeogang, Yurpa, Anne, and Hwanyeon would not have been able to meet.
= Doesn’t it feel like the earth god foretold her fate to meet Doryeong? =
“According to what you said, I think I should at least make a donation to express my gratitude to the land god.”
= I want to pay too. Thanks to meeting Doryeong, I feel happy every day, so I think I have to pay the happiness tax.=
While chatting with a giggling Anne, I was walking along a street like a Mediterranean city street, and I saw a splendid white building that is incomparable to the cathedrals of the earth.
It is over 50 meters tall, with spire structures rising everywhere, and even arched stained glass.
Hwanin admired the cathedral as if it was shining white in the sunlight.
“It’s pretty flashy…….”
= It turned out like this because it was built to fit the atmosphere of Palatum. Merianol’s headquarters is not like this. Feeling more holy and solemn?=
The parish of Palatum was made up of a wide square around it like any other cathedral, so no small number of people were coming and going.
The total population of Nionebres is said to be about tens of millions, but if you look at this flow, it feels like 1/10 of the population is living in Palatum.
Entering the vast plaza with the cathedral, Anne first got off Coupin’s back and said,
= Doryong, let’s get off. Near the parish cathedral, getting off the mount and folding the wings is the rule.=
“Is it homage to God?”
=Yes.=
Even in his eyes, he could see the Flavians walking with their wings folded, and people passing by holding the reins from their mounts, so he got off the plane without complaint and walked toward the entrance of the cathedral in the Palatum diocese.
=…… ?=
= Oh…… !=
As a considerable number of people walked towards the entrance, the Golden Armored Fleur Knights guarding the entrance widened their eyes.
One of the four quickly went inside, and the other hurried down the seven stairs with a shudder and approached Hwanin.
= Excuse me. Seongje-nim, who is a candidate for the great saint of Yeongdo, and Holy Knight Anne-nim, are you correct?=
“Yes. You’re right.”
= Ah…… ! It’s an honor to meet you two like this. I am Doham, a 3rd-class knight belonging to the Arlemane Cathedral of the Palatum Diocese of Hisrond. We will guide you two.=
=Thank you. But did you know we were coming?=
=About a month ago, the gate came down from the main altar. They said that the holy priest and the holy knight, Anne, would come. Ah, give me the reins.=
“It’s okay. Emergency doesn’t entrust the reins to me.”
= Yes, is that so…… ?=
Anne, who was momentarily frozen by the story of the knight named Doham, asked him again.
=Could that gate be sent by Cardinal Agiosis?=
=I heard that.=
Ugh Anne let out a short moan, pursed her lips with her frown on her face, and whispered as she clung to her phantom’s side.
= Doryeong, what should I do? I think Lua will be angry again.=
“I told you to contact me often, but the communication from the north of Prabur was the last. Is it enough for half a year? She deserves to be angry.”
= Now, wait a minute. I tried to contact Young when he came out, but Doryeong told me not to… ! Even in the great plains of Sijur… !=
Hwanin, who read Anne’s embarrassment as she lowered her voice, gave a small smile.
=Don’t laugh… ! If Lua gets angry, Doryeong has to defend me! Will you defend me?!=
“Okay. I’ll do it, so don’t cry.”
=Wow, I didn’t cry.=
The place that followed the passage was a side entrance that only VIPs could enter. Unlike the main gate, which is characterized by grandeur, the splendid side gate features detailed and delicate intaglio.
Hwan-in, who told Do-ham to follow him for a while because he couldn’t take Bi-sang to the inside of the building, passed through the thick stone gate that Do-ham opened.
“…….”
Brilliant sunlight pours in from various places, and the interior corridor, which seems to be constantly falling, is filled with his vision.
It is literally a sacred space where baby angels fly around and burst into laughter.
As Anne and her walked along the hallway for a little while, I could see two high priestesses of the Fleur tribe waiting, holding a complex and delicate bouquet with both hands respectfully.
=Welcome to your visit.=
=Welcome.=
After bowing deeply to Hwanin, the two of them lightly touched both shoulders with a bouquet of flowers to bless them, and then began to guide them to the parish headman.
Pious demeanor with no small talk.
It took roughly two minutes for them to come from the main gate to the side gate. Having made preparations in the meantime must mean that the words have already been put together.
Hwanin, who had quietly walked through the cathedral following the two senior priests, was able to reach the parish head’s office on the third floor.
Seeing the splendid door engraved with a giant turtle, Hwanin already felt tired.
The good thing about having a higher status is the convenience and convenience of eliminating the cumbersome identification process and being able to meet alone with the highest decision maker.
On the contrary, what I don’t like is that there are so many places to hold a ceremony like this.
The middle-aged Fleur tribe in front of him was a person who had to demonstrate such a ceremony to the extreme.
In the parish head’s office, which is bright and splendid, decorated in yellow, a room befitting the title of parish head, Hwan-in faced a man with traces of middle age on his face, and exchanged greetings calmly.
=Welcome to the main church of the Parish of Palatum, Church of the Earth God. I am Ronhas, vicar of the Arlemane Cathedral.=
“I am Hwanin, a candidate for the great saint of Yeongdo. Nice to see you.”
=I’ve heard rumors about Emperor Seongje, but seeing it in reality adds to my surprise. To think that such a young and talented person is a candidate for the next generation of great saints……. I feel the brilliant light of the god of loving-kindness shining in the future of Youngdo.=
“It’s just too much praise for a single spirit master with a reverse horse.”
Haha. Wouldn’t that also mean that the God of Mercy is interested in Hwanin Seongje? Come on, here.=
Hwanin, who shook hands with the parish priest, a man from the Fleur tribe, and exchanged polite words only to the extent that it was polite, followed his guidance and sat down in a luxurious and elegant chair.
An antique chair with white and yellow tones that is worth millions of won even on Earth.
Though tired, Hwanin took the time to serve his purpose and began to build a good rapport with Ron Haas.
With a moderately modest feeling, he unravels the circumstances of his becoming a great saint and arouses his interest by slightly bringing out just enough to taste the relationship with Adneville, whom he is curious about.
=Oh, definitely, countless people have been trying to find the free Cheonneung for the past hundreds of years, but it is a work that has finally been concluded that it has been lost! If Aleughel’s White Dragon was carrying it, no one would have to know!=
Her relationship with her was proven by the fancy half-court uniform that her Hwanin was wearing on her body, so Ron Haas believed him without any doubt, and Hwanin continued to talk to him appropriately.
When they chatted for about an hour while drinking refills of exquisite tea from time to time, Hwanin judged that the atmosphere had matured enough.
The feeling of friendship that can be felt from his elegant face.
It’s going to be hard to build up a good feeling more than this. To go higher than this, you have to listen to his request and take your time to raise it slowly.
But there is no such thing as that. Because his own identity and Anne’s presence would give him an extra boost in friendship.
Even with that much, he will be able to achieve what he desires.
Hwanin took the time to get his point out.
“The reason I visited your church today is to send you the black magic book I obtained after killing the black magician during my journey.”
=Dark magic book!=
Confident in the Parisian’s startled response, Hwanin quietly called for Anne.
“Anne. That.”
=Yes.=
Anne took out a human leather book from her subspace pouch, wrapped and sealed with her consecrated string, and placed it on a table made of crystal.
= Hmm. Periodic consecration was meticulously done. Even so, I can feel the dark energy so deeply…….=
Ronhas got up from his seat, put his hands together and bowed to Hwanin.
=Thanks to the efforts of the Holy Emperor and the spirit knights, one of Nionebreth’s troubles disappeared like this. As the Archbishop of the Church of the Earth God, I express my deep gratitude and admiration for the judgment and decision of Hwanin Seongje.
“Thank you.”
Hwanin, who responded to the expression of gratitude in a short but calm voice, grasped his feelings and opened his mouth to express his caution.
“I think it is important to find rest for the soul due to the misfortune of the soul, but I also think it is important to prevent innocent people from being immersed in pain and suffering due to the excessive grace of the earth god.”
= It is as you said. How pitiful it is that His unmanaged grace overflows and impoverishes those around him…….=
“It was by chance that I discovered the Dark Magician. Surprisingly, the black magician found a first-class labyrinth and made it his den.”
=Huh!=
Hwanin showed appropriate speech skills, and the black magician strengthened the labyrinth using black magic, and the culprit seems to be the contents recorded in the book. He said he would.
Ronhas thumped his knee and showed admiration for his will.
=You are indeed right! You are truly worthy of being followed by the paladin Sir Anne! If that’s what you mean, I get it. I will open the black magic book and check the contents as well as the purification of the black magic book.=
After saying that, Ronhas spread a small sacral barrier on each of his hands, put them together, and put the book of black magic in them.
The black magic book submerged in the translucent yellow sphere begins to tremble as if suffering from the energy of the opposite.
The string blessed by that vibration slowly disintegrated, and eventually the cover of the book of black magic was revealed, and on the cover of the book of black magic where a woman’s genitals were cut and joined together, Ronhas made an angry expression, saying that he was truly blasphemous.
=A woman’s vagina is a sacred thing that symbolizes the birth of life from time immemorial, and blasphemy by making a mark with it is truly a by-product of a terrible depravity!=
The cover, which was made by cutting off the woman’s genitals intact, was wriggling as if it were alive, as if to prove that.
Anne muttered, furrowing her brow as if in disgust.
=When we got it, it didn’t look so dark until we sealed it…….=
=Sister Anne. Lightning is another purification. At that time, he must have lost his strength for a while after being struck by lightning.=
After taking a small breath, Lon Hath raised his holy power and, after being wrapped in a group of yellow light, slowly opened the book of black magic and began to see it.
Hwanin carefully watched the process of why the parish priest went so far and learned why he protects his mind and body with sexual magic.
Every time the bookshelf was turned over, something like black fog and smoke spurted out, filling the barriers of both hands and disappearing, and some of them flowed out and touched his aura as if licking it.
‘If I get cursed things or black magic books in the future, I’ll have to stay away from them.’
Even just looking at it, it is a characteristic energy that is not annoying. If you are contaminated by such things, it will be a very annoying and annoying thing to shake off.
After about 10 minutes, the thin black magic book stopped emitting dark energy, and the parish priest wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief and opened his mouth with a slightly angry face.
=Yeha Seongje’s guess was correct. In this black magic book, there was a formula to intentionally blaspheme the grace of the earth god and convert it into one’s own power.=
In his anger, Anne swore with her hard face.
=…… I swear by the dignity of the land god, our party did not look at the contents of the book and did not take a single word into it.=
Haha. A faithful sister was by her side. Her sister’s energy is still clearly proving the protection of the Earth God. I believe even if I don’t swear like that.=
=But it’s always better to be certain.=
As she said The way to get rid of things that can cause unnecessary suspicion.
Hwanin, who nodded slightly, understood that Archbishop Ronhas’s emotions were moderately filled with anger and relief, and asked to know the contents of the black magic book within the limits allowed.
There was no other intention. It was just because of whether there was an element that would be a hint for the high-level labyrinth to go back to Earth.
