Ian moved with Nathan.

Of course, it wasn’t an ordinary outfit.

He was wearing ah happiness in order to move secretly.

Then Nathan asked.

“But, Prince. Do you really need to sneak out like this? Could it be that we just ask for a visit?”

“I don’t think Marquis Adelas will take it easily. You must be very angry with me.”

“but. I also want to beat the prince…”

Nathan turned his head to Ian’s gaze.

Of course, sneaking wasn’t the only reason.

‘I must not show that I am interested in her saint.’

Even if it turns out that she is the real sister.

How Cardinal Cesare or the Holy Empire will treat her sister is obvious.

He didn’t know that he might threaten Ian by holding her brother hostage.

no, that wasn’t allAll.

‘Even her mother’s life is at risk.’

I didn’t know that her mother was still alive. But she wondered whether she was still alive, either circumstantially or in the presence of her brother, whom she was unaware of.

And I didn’t even know that its existence would be known to them.

Because of that, Ion, who was moving quietly, hurried his steps.

Originally, an official meeting was scheduled in the near future, but well.

‘I’m not feeling good.’

I feel like I need to meet a saint as soon as possible.

It wasn’t just a feeling.

bang bang!

It was the first time his heart had been beating so fast.

So it was when he came near the mansion of the Marquis Adelas.

“Shh! Be careful.”

Nathan stopped Ion.

It was said that the guards near the dog hole where he usually sneaked in and out were full.

he said in a low voice.

“I think we will have to wait a little bit.”

“How long?”

“It will be shift time soon.”

Ian looked up at the sky.

It was definitely time for darkness to come soon.

“Is there any other place other than this one?”

“This is the least expensive place.”

Nathan said with a serious expression.

“Because my father is very strict about security. Probably other places would have had guards as well as knights.”

He had an expression that he didn’t want to call him father, but he said with certainty.

“Well, that’s why I wrote it here. This is the side of the unused annex.”

“Are the guards this strict on a regular basis?”

“It seems that the security has been strengthened because the cardinal has arrived.”

“Isn’t there such a thing as a secret passage?”

“There is no secret passage in our family. I think it would be best to just wait for the shift.”

“········”

No matter how long the wait, the shift would take place within an hour or two.

Taking advantage of that time to sneak in.

But Ian shook his head.

“no. I think I should go in now.”

“Prince?”

“I feel bad. I think we should meet the saint in a hurry.”

Nathan’s two eyes widened.

It was because it was hard to see Ian pushing this far.

“But, Prince. However, there is a way to break through this place……”

Of course, knocking down the guard wasn’t a problem.

But it wasn’t just a matter of knocking down the guard.

When it is discovered that the guard has fallen, the knights will come rushing in.

No matter how great Nathan was, it was impossible to meet the saint and escape without being noticed by anyone.

But at that moment.

“Do not worry. Have you forgotten who I am?”

Ian grinned at him.

Then he quickly started running towards the guard.

“Huh.. Prince!”

Before Nathan was even able to catch him.

Ian was running towards his dog hole.

There were two guards in front of him.

right then As Ion was running, he strongly kicked a stone that had fallen to the floor.

puck!

The stone immediately fell into the grass behind the guards, slightly away from the guards.

The guards were startled and turned towards the spear.

“what! What are you talking about!”

“Who is there!”

That was the moment when the guards turned in one direction.

Ian remembered Nathan’s oath.

[I will fight fairly and fairly at any time.]

In an instant, Ian’s body moved as quickly as it disappeared.

The biggest advantage of this is that it moves so quickly that you can’t even see it, and at the same time it doesn’t even make a sound.

So Ian arrived near the guards.it was when

Nathan rolled his eyes.

‘I can’t use that power now. It has a fatal weakness.’

The stumbling block was the speed at which he couldn’t stop himself.

It was really dangerous to go into the dog hole at that speed.

It was the same even if he went into the hole as if he was sliding and falling.

‘If you make a mistake, you may get caught in the jaw of the hole and seriously injure an important part.’

But Nathan couldn’t help but say it out loud.

The moment you speak, the guards will move.

And instead of talking, the moment Nathan tries to chase after.

‘no!’

Ian’s body came close to the dog hole.

It was finally time for Nathan to scream inside.

His two eyes widened.

It was natural.

widely! widely! widely!

It was because Ian’s body flew high into the sky.

He climbed up the wall as if walking, not through a hole.

‘How the hell?’

Naturally, Nathan was surprised.

‘No matter how fast I swear, I wouldn’t be able to walk up the wall, would I?’

But it was too easy for Ian.

Because he had special Noble Phantasms.

In particular, the shoes of the first king made it possible.

[Air Jump] that shoes have.

He used the ability to fly through walls or the air depending on the strength of his feet.

‘I still have three steps at my limit. Before that, you must cross the wall.’

But there was no problem.

Arriving quickly over the wall, Ion reached out and grabbed the end of his hand.

Then he jumped over the wall using the inertia of his body.

‘It was better to wear shoes than a cloak.’

In the meantime, Ian had studied the functions of the shoes and cloaks of the first king a lot.

In fact, it was okay to use the power of the cloak’s ‘float’ in such a situation.

The downside of Floating was that it was too slow.

‘Besides, there’s a downside that you can’t use Nathan’s when you’ve written it.’

The cloak could not keep up with Ion’s increased speed.

But the shoes matched Nathan’s Oath very well.

Thanks to this, Ian was able to jump over the wall quickly.

chin!

As soon as Ian came down, he hid himself in the grass.

Unlike the outside, there was no security on the inside.

‘I go straight to the saint’s room like this.’

Nathan’s oath and the power of his shoes were still there.

He was confident that he would not be caught unless he met a knight-level powerful man.

It’s Nathan. It’s his house, so he’ll come and find him.

It was time for Ion to move slowly.

[what! This dirty thing!]

‘Jealousy’ came out of my arms.

Unusually, the guy got angry and shouted at Ion.

[What the hell are you doing? Such a filthy smell…]

At the same time, jealousy when he saw Ian’s shoes screamed.

[what. this. Those are his shoes!]

‘He?’

[The one who used to be the king of the seven generations! Then you! Are you too similar to him?]

‘is it?’

While talking, Ian quickly moved inside.

He’s already heard of Nathan’s approximate location. His actions toward the inside were unstoppable.

But the words of ‘Jealousy’ bothered me.

‘Am I so like him?’

[Not only the feeling, but also the face]

But Jealousy soon tilted its head.

[But… they have a different name… they’re too short?]

‘It has to be. Because he is my ancestor.’

[What?]

let out a startled scream as if it had noticed something.

[crazy! I have come to the descendants of the one whom I have appointed as the king of the seven generations.Was it?!]

Jealousy was trying to get away from Ian somehow.

But to no avail.

[This crazy! It’s a stupid teddy bear! Come on, you can’t let me go!]

The white string that wrapped around was not letting go of him.

No, rather, he tightened his body tightly.

Seeing that, Ian smiled.

It seems that the power that held on to jealousy was .

was holding onto and preventing her from running away.

grumbled with only her mouth open.

[This me. I’m afraid I’ll be tied to a guy who can’t even use his own weapon properly because he’s not even a foolish bear.]

Oooh!

[Ah-oh! why! What! Why does a guy who can’t speak properly to his owner only bully me!]

At those words, Ian paused for a moment.

‘This guy… is it possible to talk to ?’

If so, it was very useful.

It was because Ion could not properly handle the or that he had yet.

Although he is doing research with the documents left by Ceres.

‘I couldn’t even translate it properly because it was written in ancient language.’

It was still a sensitive situation to be seen by other researchers and scholars.

Is it possible to have a conversation with at such a moment?

Hopefully, it might be possible to ask what kind of power you can use yourself.

But it was that moment.

‘Is it because I can’t use the weapon properly?’

[okay. Don’t you have to say that?]

Then, Ion smiled toward .

‘Then how do I write it well?’

[Don’t be cocky, I think I’ll tell that to his descendants..]

Jealousy soon screamed.

Probably because a bunch of white lines were coming up from Ian’s body.

No, it wasn’t just a simple line. The white line soon took on a single shape.

That’s a white hammer the size of Ian’s head.

[hey! This is a foul!]

After seeing , started to retreat as if it wasn’t the case.

But Ian laughed softly.

‘Come on, tell me. So… how can I use my abilities?’

*

Her saint was sitting on her own bed and looking out her window.

It felt as if she was in prison, and her suffocating air was choking her neck.

But she had no way to escape.

‘Not yet.’

Her silver eyes, called Ye Ji-an, gleamed with a bluish tint.

That was then.

smart

someone knocked on the door

She raised her head as if the saint had been waiting for her.

‘finally.’

The saint rose from her seat with her face full of expectation.

However.

thud!

The visit opened wildly.

Cardinal Cesare came in.

“Sister, the time has come for the consecration ceremony.”

His bloody eyes turned to her saint.

And at Cesare’s words, the priest who was protecting her saint was startled.

“It’s a dedication ceremony, really?”

The prayer is a special ceremony performed nationally with the special permission of the Pope. Originally, it was an important prophecy that was only performed once every 10 years.

But now at this Kaistein? Even Cesare organized it?

At the very least, the presence of the saint was such an important figure that even the Pope could not take it lightly.

“She used that power less than a year ago,” she said. If I use it now, it will put a strain on the saint’s life.”

Then Cesare smiled and looked at the priest.

“Hey, what’s your name?”

“It’s Jan.”

“He is the one who offended her saint. to deal with.”

“Yes!”

“Come on, wait a minute! I’m..”

So let the priest be dragged away. CesareHe looked at the lady and smiled.

He has the eyes of the Pope, so it’s a power he’s only used once or twice, but he was the one who felt that power was absolute.

Thanks to him, he was able to overcome the crisis at every moment of crisis, and was not able to catch the eyes of the Pope.

“It’s a big deal. Would you please?”

As if waiting for someone, the saint continued to stare at her door, and instead of her answer, she looked at her Cesare.

“Lady?”

The saint nodded her head in disbelief.

“Then let’s go.”

Cesare was careful not to close on her saint’s body. And she took her and started heading somewhere in her.

And at that very moment.

‘············.

Through the window, Ian was watching the scene with fearful eyes.

His eyes were younger than ever.
