Chapter 768 – 759 Strait City Moldlete
Assuming that the passage attack proceeds like this, there are still more problems left.
Elwidris heard that the placenta of nobles died or was grafted into the Turcion royal family in Passage, and the current head of the house, Psud=Oul, is barely surviving, with only those who are friendly to him.
To describe Elwidris’ current condition, it can be said that he was an idiot who cut off his limbs with a shovel and ate them.
Since the target of revenge had disappeared and was no more than a shell, Hwanin had no intention of seeking an apology from Elwidris.
To be precise, I’m ignoring it because I’m not interested. Because he intends to unleash his actual anger on the prophets that Turcyon has obtained.
I did…
= Doryeong… Gaya is missing. I think there are Elwidris prophets behind it…=
=Elmine unnie posted a report. Gaya Ciranel scouting leader has not been seen for several days.=
Gaya = Ciranel. Greetings from the scouting agency under the council that Hwanin, a friend of Anne met in the Giant Forest Labyrinth, planted in Merianol like a weed under the pretext of a thin relationship.
While operating in the Passage, secretly and carefully collecting information, she went missing.
It is a story that he disappeared in an alleyway a few days ago while investigating the Tower of Blue Leaves in conjunction with members of the White Wolves.
She’s a young girl from an aristocratic family, but she was followed and removed.
=…=
She acts expressionless, but her mood drops sharply when she sees Anne’s face, which is about to shed tears.
It’s not down on the gloomy side, it’s down on the side of flesh and blood.
Hwanin, who took her hand and sat it on her thigh, stroked her silver hair, which seemed to have been pulled out like a thread, and comforted her silently.
“I’ll have to change my schedule and visit Elwidris.”
As I muttered quietly, Hwanyeon, who had been picking up and eating fruit hwachae in the order of strawberry, peach, mango, and watermelon, looked at me and asked.
“To obtain information about the Prophet?”
“I didn’t like the prophets from Elwidris who would spy on us even if it wasn’t so. But…”
Does Asin’s soul affect the future or is it protected by the ‘providence’ so claimed by the theologians of this world?
Prophecies, foreknowledge, forebodings, foreshadowings, the power to see any future cannot look into oneself.
This also applies to people with whom you have a close relationship.
[With EL’s help, I was able to uncover some of the principles of the prophecy. The reason is that the providence of the world protects you, the Goddess of Heaven, as well as those who can have a great influence on your behavior patterns. A curtain is drawn on the future for you as well as those who can intervene in your course of action.]
You can’t see your own future. Girlfriends are also important to him, so he can’t look into the future.
He does not see the future of Siha, Baek Chi-ryeong, and Elkata, who gave birth to their own children, as well as the future of their children.
Since the divine beast, the great saint, is naturally invisible, he can only see it faintly, as if peering through a thin veil called Shas.
But Gaya = not Ciranel. The story of how she was an unimportant woman and her prophets were able to harm her.
The question here was whether the chain of the veil of the future did not work.
If you hurt Gaya, Anne’s friend, Anne would naturally feel sad. When Anne is sad, her Hwanin moves with anger.
In other words, if Gaya = Ciranel is eliminated, Hwanin will also move in a chain reaction.
‘Or they were removed due to their negligence being exposed.’
Anyway. Unable to see the future of herself and her girlfriends, the handling of El Widris’ prophets was put on a lower priority, but now things have changed.
“Ah Young. Instruct Elmine to investigate the location of the prophets from Elwidris. And they told me to report and post the recent status of Cardinal Leawen Agiosis of the Church of the Earth God in the near future.”
=Yes.=
In addition, he visits Elwidris and collects information about the prophets from a person named Psud Oul.
Another problem is the cult of the land god.
Currently, the four major churches of land god, animal god, sea god, and sky god are pressuring Merianol to quickly open state affairs in all directions.
Fleurs are not so lofty creatures. It was learned that betrayal and defection were possible, and the Church of the Land God was the state religion of Merianol.
There is a possibility that the missing person has infiltrated the ground god church, so it is necessary to reconfirm her stance at this point.
In particular, Anne’s friend and sister-in-law, Le Awen = Agiosis, is a cardinal of the Order of the Land God. It’s been quite a while since she hasn’t been in contact with them.
‘Because there is a history of trying to bring me to Merianol.’
If you want to doubt it, it is a story that she may also be a member of the decision.
Other minor problems include that there is an earth god on the way to Passage, and that Passage can continue to send assassins since entering the main island of Merianol.
The latter reached Asinwi and the problem caused by the possession of the spirit prison was solved, so you can use it as a means of securing the spirit.
But the former…
“Enjoyment. I can still smell the divine beast.”
“Lil says it’s very loose. They say that if she passes near another divine beast, she will notice 100%?」
That the traces of the two divine beasts on her own body would stimulate the curiosity of other divine beasts.
“If you look at what you call Shinsoo, there won’t be any malicious scent… It will be fine if you pass by.”
It is a divine beast that must keep away from evil. Being called a divine beast itself means that the inclination is close to goodness.
In response to that conversation, Anne spoke in a small voice on Hwanin’s lap.
=The god there is named Geode. I saw an offering being made as I passed by… It’s not known much if they’re quiet, but I haven’t heard of any corps or people coming and going getting attacked. Rather, it is said that it is safe because there are no monsters, monsters, or demons appearing in the vicinity.
Because of this, they always take a day off and pass by.
… It’s hard to make a judgment on this one because there are no examples. I have to check as I go.
A day has passed since the Judge’s attack.
The lord castle has remained silent until now in a half-panic, as if it had learned that those who attacked its territory were the judges of justice in the capital passage.
If you listen to the story Hwanyeon monitors and relays, he can’t sleep and is struggling with her retainers.
‘Being friendly with me will bother Passage. But if you follow Passage’s will, you’ll be afraid of me.’
In the end, the lord’s choice is to claim neutrality.
And rumors spread that the parish head of the Moldlete branch of the Church of the Earth God was thrilled to visit the holy sacrifice and receive the glow of Asinwi.
Several people witnessed the parishioner leaving the hotel in tears after visiting the hotel in his court uniform looking fine.
In addition to these rumors, it became known that the spirit knight of the Holy Emperor had destroyed the city and removed the judge who had harmed people, and that the injured people were quickly recovered and the destruction area was cleared according to the order of the Holy Emperor, and public opinion turned more favorable to the Holy Emperor.
=Couldn’t the real high-ranking people of the Passage have done something bad to Seongje?=
= I mean… Otherwise, wouldn’t someone like Seongje-nim be furious and looking for the passage?=
=The sea is also angry, so it is said that it has been raining on Passage for half a year…=
With the help of the duke of white wolves and the great saint, the evil deeds (rumours wrapped in ) of Maryanol and Passage have already spread across the continent.
It is difficult to know the authenticity, and for those who live day by day, quarrels between high-ranking people are a story of a distant country.
However, as those who saw and experienced the Holy Ritual up close spread rumors, more and more people consider the rumors to be true.
=I heard that in Colaido, Seongjenim exterminated the demon king and purified the city.=
= Oh, I heard that too. Dozens of the devil’s minions died.=
= I don’t know what the real royalty are doing. After leaving the work they have to do to the Spirit Master.=
= Hey, lower your voice… ! They’re going to kill us all… ?!=
Furthermore, news that the person who almost became the demon king was killed in Colaido and that the entire city was purified, the citizens are strengthening their thoughts that there is something wrong with the passage.
The result was a huge crowd gathered around the hotel.
People who want to see Seongje with their own two eyes at least once.
=I’m back.=
= I’m back…=
Seeing Ayoung and Baek Ryeo-gang open the room door and enter, Hwan-in, who was standing by the window, turned to face them.
“Looking at the bad expression, it looks like you couldn’t save the ship.”
= I contacted the back alley organization to find out the stomachs of the nobles, but they say there really isn’t any. Almost all boats other than small sailboats for near-an excursions were borrowed. The ship that was not borrowed was also on an external voyage, so they couldn’t do it.
= There is only one sailing vessel docked, and that is…=
Hwanin gave a simple answer to Baekryeogang’s introduction.
“It must be the denomination line of the Church of the Land God.”
=Brother, can’t we ask for a ride on the church line? I found out that the ship comes and goes once a day.=
“As I said before, it is difficult for me to be beholden to one church.”
If the word favoritism starts to come out, the passage can instill a sense of deprivation in the churches that are performing a role similar to preventing the military from moving in earnest.
Then there is no real way. I had no choice but to build a boat myself, or cross it with the help of Norn or Hwanyeon.
Now that your identity has been revealed, if you go to the port management office and find out about the boarding, they will hurriedly arrange a seat for you.
No matter how much fantasy spirits watch, you can make the possibility of a suicide bomb attack in the middle of the sea close to 0%, but you can’t make it 0.
There is no way to do anything about brainwashing ordinary people with stupid words and mobilizing some kind of means to explode them. You can’t see all the occupants through the eyes of a new-style soul.
There are a lot of thoughts about how to get on the yolk with miniature shoes on everyone and how to cross over by Hwanyeon asking for help from the highest level water spirit to harden the water.
‘This suspicious disease doesn’t seem to get better.’
I doubt the number of things that can happen with each action, so I can hardly choose an option.
‘Is it just a matter of intruding into the lord’s castle and threatening to give up a boat…’
= Aunt. Where did Yuri unnie and Anne unnie go?=
=The wanderer’s detonator is being detonated in the next room.=
= Already? Yesterday, when I researched it, I said it, and I did it right away. I want to go too. Bell, are you not going?
=I want to be next to my older brother.=
=Then yes.=
After looking around the living room for a while, Baek Ryeo-gang asks Hwan-in if he would like coffee and goes to make tea.
As Hwanin glared at the large and majestic castle that was slowly being eroded by the sea breeze in a typical port city landscape and was making choices, Hwanin pulled his collar and called.
「Hwanin. The humans from the lord’s castle are on their way here.”
“… I thought it would be two days later before he asked me to leave.”
Were you thinking about that? Hwan-yeon and Baek Ryeo-gang, who had been bringing coffee, were also taken aback by Hwan-in’s self-talk.
As I waited for a while while drinking the rich espresso brewed by Baekryeogang, a knocking sound that made me feel nervous just by listening to it echoed through the room.
When Imorel opens the door, an Inseo tribe resembling a Mongolian hamster stands there sweating, then hurriedly takes off the bowler hat she was wearing and bows down.
=I am the second-in-command butler of lord Udma Rihel Moldette. I came to see you like this to deliver the message of the lord to His Majesty the Holy Emperor.=
Looking at that complexion and reaction, the reason he came was probably as he guessed.
After talking to Aunt Rel and inviting her to the sofa in the living room, Hwanin inevitably refused to sit across from him and asked the jibal who knelt down on the floor.
“I wonder why the second butler was looking for me. I don’t think I’ve ever caused a problem in the city, but…”
=Moon, what a problem! Not like that! According to the principle, the lord should send an invitation to His Majesty the Holy Emperor and invite him to the castle…=
The lord suffers from an endemic disease with a long incubation period and suffers from extreme high fever and headache. Yesterday, he was cured by a priest and was convalescing, so he couldn’t bear to meet him. I’m going to Lethe…
“I don’t find the lord’s negligence particularly offensive, so you don’t have to talk like that. So, can you tell me why you came?”
What is Endemic? When Hwanin, who cut off the lengthy excuse in the middle, asked for the main point again, the jibal, who was sweating enough to wet his fluffy brown fur, hurriedly lowered his head.
=The lord said that His Majesty the Holy Emperor would be contemplating a plan to cross the strait. So he said that he wanted to provide the high-speed boat owned by the lord to the Holy Emperor!
“So, I’m asking you to get the boat and get out of town.”
=… Ancient?! Oh no!=
“Not within the realm, but openly killing thirteen judges of justice in the city, if I continue to stay in the city, I will be in a very difficult position.”
=… ! … !!=
The jibal’s complexion turns white at the series of perverse remarks.
Hwanin stood up from his seat while watching such a trembling jibeol, and he grabbed the hand of the trembling jibeol and raised him up.
If you do this enough, the story will be conveyed to the lord.
“Even otherwise, it was a car that was in trouble because it was not possible to find a boat. Please tell them that you will be grateful for the boat provided by the lord.”
=Yes, yes!=
“Imorel. Follow Mr. Gibbal and find out where the ship is.”
=Yes, Lord Seongje.=
Immoreel follows the jibal, who is almost running away, and Hwanyeon, who was hiding behind a cushion, comes out and looks at him and asks.
“Did you know it would be like this?”
“The lord would want to send me out quickly. And you never know when a battle will break out in your city.”
I thought that the breaking point would be two days later, but I never thought it would come today.
Hwanin muttered softly as he looked out the window at Imorel and the second butler leaving in a hurry in a carriage.
“Maybe it was a reaction to hearing the news that even a kill squad had been dispatched from Passage.”
“If you’re worried about running into them on the boat, I’ll be on the lookout for you in the sea. Hwanin only cares about the sky.”
“… Do it I’ll have to use the Heroic Spirit Army this time.”
The boat the lord provided was a small boat similar to a cog, with only 3 crew members required.
A typical cog ship is used as a small warship, and a watchtower is installed at the rear of the ship to increase the number of passengers.
However, even though the boat provided by the lord is small, it is a special product, and the blue color suits the indigo sea.
Furthermore, a cabin was built instead of a watchtower and the dock was widened so that about 20 people could sail for about 10 days.
Anne, who is loading her boat with luggage and cues, sees Isilite with a bad expression and she stabs her in the butt.
= You don’t look good. Is this your first time riding a boat?=
=…=
= It seems to be the first time. It’s the boat the lord used. You don’t have to worry about sinking, so don’t worry too much.=
= Don’t worry…=
Isilite’s white face draws pale when she hears that it’s sinking to believe that she won’t.
In the meantime, Hwanin was looking at every corner of the ship with Yurupa and watching the marines inspecting the only mast for departure.
= It is durable because it has been strengthened and wear-resistant secret techniques are applied throughout. Even if I get hit directly by a level 5 spell, I will survive.=
“The Marines haven’t been touched in any way either.”
= Yes. There is no place where the phase force is uniquely connected to the ship. Youngju must have really wanted to send us away quickly.
“Because the longer we stay, the lord will feel the enormous burden. More than that, did Kim Chul-soo and Kim Young-soo’s detonation go well?”
Hwanin’s eyes turned to the two, who were carrying all their luggage and looking around the ship curiously.
It’s only been 4 hours since the surgery was over, but looking at him walking around briskly, I don’t see anyone who has had a detonator near the heart.
= Of course. It is forbidden to use abilities until the wound is healed and the cycle of phase power is stabilized, but you will be able to use your power soon since you have been healed by Ayeong.=
Receiving the detonator that looked like a dark red dagger from Yurpa and was only about 5 cm long, Hwanin examined the detonator carefully with the eyes of a new-style soul.
As you get used to the eyes of the new spirit, the time you can spend, the things you can see, and the things you can analyze are becoming more diverse.
I wonder if there was someone among the dimensional wanderers managed by the Administration who got a job similar to Kang Hyuk-Jun’s.
As I put my detonator on the aspen and watch the white waves crashing into the indigo sea, Luke and a female marine with sea otter ears and a tail approach and salute nervously.
= Mr. Seongje. Ready to sail.=
When I turned my head and looked at Isilite, who had a slightly drawn face, he confirmed that all luggage and personnel had finished boarding.
“Then let’s start right away.”
=Okay! Set sail! Anchor up!!=
At the shout of the gray-haired female marine, the sound of a chain anchor being lifted was heard, and the sail of the only mast came down and spread wide.
As if it was known that it was the lord’s ship, ships going out and coming in sneaked out of the way.
Isilite unwittingly grabbed Anne’s arm as she swayed in the waves as she made her way through the huge commercial vessel.
= Hey, what are you so afraid of? Even if the ship sinks, you can run with multiple swordsmen. Even if it sinks, it’s a problem for me or Ah-young, even though you all have your own means of escape…=
“Yes?! Wait. Sister Anne, is the ship sinking?!”
“I-I can’t swim!”
=… Why are you again The ship won’t sink!=
With his head raised, Hwanin sees green wind spirits laughing and flying around the sail.
Since there is only one sail, it won’t be very fast, but the wind spirit summoned by the fantasy will blow hard, so the strait that is about 100 km wide will pass in five or six hours.
Hwanin’s gaze returned to the clear blue horizon with no air pollution at all.
