Episode 554:
Where are the continent’s most important issues decided?
This question has been a quite interesting topic for luxury enthusiasts and people who like to line up.
A person who said that since Zodiac was founded, it could only be an academic society for great wizards.
A person who says that it was the federal Castrang Railway Planning Conference where astronomical amounts of capital were gathered. A person who says that this may be some kind of secret conversation from the distant past that humans do not know about.
And people are different in each era.
This is a topic that everyone has fought over with different opinions.
However, after the war that broke out with the resurrection of the cursed empire in the very center of the continent, everyone pointed to one place without disagreement.
That place is the palace of Khan’s Dragon Emperor.
Now, there were so many diverse and extraordinary people here that the word “all walks of life” would not be enough.
“Then the eleventh and second Dragon Emperor Summit begins…”
These are ordinary people who gathered for an unremarkable reason.
After the mysterious great empire called Montra was resurrected, all of Pandea fell into great chaos.
Before the chaos could be resolved, the resurrected dead started a war against all countries and powers and committed ruthless violence.
A small nation had to face destruction overnight and could not even be taken prisoner.
The army of death killed all life that was defeated by them. They trampled the land and turned it into a wasteland. There wasn’t much to know other than that they just did it as if it was something they had to do.
Only Khan, the Great Empire of the East, was able to effectively block this army of death, so everyone wanted to come into the shadow of the giant.
“Uhm….”
“Fuuuu….”
A meeting filled with uncomfortable groans and sighs. A story that started a long time ago but never progressed.
The reason there was silence was because only things that were uncomfortable to say out loud had to be exchanged anyway.
“Communication with the Kingdom of Chrysium has been lost since midnight.”
“Libra, how do you see?”
Taeyul, one of the three kings of Khan, opened his mouth.
“The wizard dispatched to Chrysium is an old wizard with a history of holding a status in the past. “You’re not the kind of person who would accidentally miss a magical communication that should take place on a regular basis.”
A man with wide eyes muttered next to him.
“It’s a fall… Didn’t everyone know the obvious signs? There must have been a feeling that their army was approaching Chrysium…” “
… I guess this is the most persuasive inference.”
“Hehehe… Should we all just open our eyes and see what is happening! King of Khan! “Tell me!”
Shinyo answered calmly.
“We are experiencing countless instances of small kingdoms being erased from the map. Khan is strong, but not invincible, and his enemies are strong. “It was certain that Chrysium would fall before Khan’s relief forces could reach it.”
“Does that mean you’re just going to sit back and let go? In the past, he reigned as the loser of the continent…”
“Khan is the last bastion of civilization and reason. “Who will bear the disaster that wrong judgment will bring?”
“That…”
“We have already experienced failure once. The next move requires being cunning like a fox and brave like a wolf. “We can’t fail anymore.”
The king of the kingdom fallen by Montra fell silent.
Xinyao lost his expression after hearing the news of Jangdu’s death. The expression frozen would be appropriate.
“… May the people of Chrysium rest in peace.”
In moments of despair, those who pray are bound to arise.
There were a few people who quietly closed their eyes and paid their respects.
“In fact, it’s the same anywhere except Cannes. “The storm of death has swept over all the lands, and there is no way to withstand it.”
The woman who leads the largest mercenary group on the continent spoke. She wasn’t suited for this position, but since she had the power, she at least had a better say than the fallen king who had just been talking.
“At least the quick judgment of Baranoa and the nearby kingdoms, who escaped through the sea route in the early stages of the war, was remarkable. “It’s nothing short of a miracle, but the sea route is also blocked now.”
The western neighboring kingdoms, which had formed a close alliance with Baranoa after Chameli ascended the throne, came together immediately after the outbreak of war and came up with a solution.
Chameli’s wisest ally, Griz, came up with a plan.
Everyone remembered that the plan was ridiculously violent.
Not only did he issue a general mobilization order for all ships, but he also stole ships abandoned in good condition from kingdoms that were destroyed at the beginning of the war.
As if that wasn’t enough, they concentrated all of the nation’s capabilities to quickly build ships capable of transporting as many people as possible. As if this wasn’t enough, they coaxed pirates who had not yet fully grasped the situation into cooperation.
Of course, many people still died.
In particular, many heroes sacrificed their lives to stop Montra’s advance, which began just before launching the ship into the sea.
Griz said.
“Hmm… It would have been better if I had come up with a brilliant idea to wipe them out, but I didn’t have time at the time. “That’s such a shame!”
Jiying…
Sophia, standing behind him, nodded. Sophia was careful that whatever Griz said was unconditionally correct.
Susa -eup …
Huu Woo …
The exiled general sighed and said in the Kingdom of Goose.
“Who would believe that the world is at a crossroads of existence and destruction in half a year at best?”
“After the army of death arrived… everything was a mess.”
“Montrara….”
Except for the eastern part of Pandea, everything was in ruins.
Even that wasn’t all human territory. Of course, Khan managed to absorb the southern kingdoms, but a new ogre kingdom was established above, and the troll tribal alliance also disappeared, making them anxious.
It was not that humanity had no record of resisting the army of death.
The allied forces, led by Khan’s great army, went to war with the intention of breaking Montra’s heart.
With their first counterattack, they succeeded in advancing to the heart of Montra. The number of dead was high and the level was by no means low, but that was the same for the Allied Forces at the time.
However, the spear broke when a man blocked the tip.
“You still haven’t figured out who he is?”
“How can we know when Montra existed in the first place?”
“Everything went wrong because of him…”
At that time, there was a battle that completely shattered the established idea that war was a battle of numbers.
Someone asked Libra Frannan.
“Isn’t his inaction overrated?”
“Well, don’t you know about the great wizard named Niruko?”
“As you know, he is the owner of Taurus. I know she was the one who fought him. What I mean is the power of that archmage.”
“You are doubting Niruko’s power. “If that senile old woman had heard, your face would have been sunken right now, but who cares… You shouldn’t have lost if you were angry.”
Frannan stroked the teacup.
“Niruko was born with frighteningly strong magical power. “Do you know what her organ…or Taurus’ magic is?”
“… I know it’s martial arts.”
“Yes, among them, Niruko was special. It was the real of the real that could be adjusted without converting the magical power itself. That was also the reason why she was considered a master of magic. “I decided that if anyone other than me was going to go to war, it should be her.”
He took a breath and explained calmly.
“In general, Taurus wizards have one habit. No, since it is taught that way from the beginning, it should be called an educational policy.”
“habit?”
“They are stronger in defense than offense. I really hate getting hurt. The magic barrier they created during the battle was so strong that normal strength could not pierce it. Because it is harder than steel of the same thickness. The rumors that the Taurus wizard died by being stabbed to death are all nonsense, so you can ignore them. But… that Taurus-like, extremely strong wizard.”
Niruko faced a man wearing full body armor.
And…
“He was crushed to death. To that person. “I didn’t even remove the sword I was carrying.”
“….”
“If I had been there, the result would have been the same. “He is a monster we must face.”
Everyone knew what happened next.
The only person stronger than Niruko was Frannan, and unfortunately he was not there.
From then on, the massacre began.
An order to withdraw troops was issued, but the ambushing enemies inflicted a heavy blow on the Allied forces, and the counterattack ultimately failed.
Libra said.
“The remaining opportunity is just one step away from the extinction of humanity. There is no option to avoid or hide. There is no choice but to destroy that terrible desert. … How long can the barrier hold out?”
Taeyul answered.
“The next two months. “I can’t hold out after that.”
“It’s time… It’s not a war that can be won just by having enough people. “We have no information about their hidden power.”
“The strong are not enough… What about you? If it were you…”
“No matter how much I think about it, I can’t imagine a situation where I would beat him.”
“Can’t you imagine?”
“If you imagine it, it’s a magic trick to achieve it in the end. In that sense, I can’t imagine myself beating him.”
This meant that the probability of that result being derived was close to or equal to 0.
Seolhong asked a question to the man sitting next to her.
“Chiu.”
“….”
“Chiu.”
“Ah ah….”
Chiu fell into despair after Gorgozia. No matter who went there, they would have faced the same situation, but it is still painful to realize one’s helplessness.
“What about the wizard and the dragon?”
“…no news.”
wizard and dragon.
They refer to Ur and Tansia, respectively. The reason they ask Chi-woo about their whereabouts is because he was the last person to encounter them.
“If they come back now… we can have some hope…”
Many people expressed their opinions on Seolhong’s words.
“Maybe he ran away?”
“Where are you running away to now?”
Chiwoo shook his head.
“It didn’t feel that way… I just…”
– Timeline collapse… That’s absurd. This is not a phenomenon that was forced. It was prepared as if it were inevitable.
The wizard said.
– I need to find out. Maybe I’m missing something more important than this war.
The wizard who disappeared on a dragon did not return.
“ha ha ha! “It’s the end. It’s the end!”
“Stop speaking!”
“Do you want me to sew your mouth shut? Nothing will change if you just ignore reality! We lost! You already lost before you even fought! The expedition team is annihilated, the Allied forces are destroyed, and things are happening as prophesied. “The earth will turn to sand, and not only will our food supply disappear, but soon even drinking water will disappear.”
“Stop….”
“The strong man who had the least hope left over a corpse and ran away? If it’s not a corpse that’s been sleeping for half a year, then what is it? Is this the hope you are talking about? This is what you are….”
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa84488?
Someone slammed the table in indignation.
Blood flowed from my clenched fist.
It was Seolhong.
“Do not call my friend a corpse.”
Seolhong is a person famous for his kindness. If she got this far, it would never end well next time.
The other person also calmed down his excitement and spoke.
“I said too much. I apologize. A situation that is not that good….”
Ta-da-da-da-!
Someone running fast and noisily enough to make Daejeon sound.
There are rules here.
In Daejeon, no one was allowed to run.
The moment there is urgency in this place, which can be said to be humanity’s last bastion, everything could collapse.
Nevertheless, if someone runs, it will not be because of painful or difficult work.
Seolhong instinctively turned around.
Jump up! And the door opens.
“Gasp… gasp! Seolhong! Seolhong!”
Seolhong ran to Jinryeo, forgetting about his body pain. Jinryeo sometimes acts stupid, but she is not an idiot.
Seolhong knows that.
“…Jinryeo!”
“yes!”
Jinryeo nodded.
* * *
A black world overtakes me.
“Ugh… ugh… gagging….”
It came up in tears and passed down my esophagus. In this way, the black world fills the intestines and takes over the body.
You must not lose your mind.
I must not forget what I have to do.
Don’t lose your mind.
I can’t forget what I have to do…
I can’t lose my mind.
Don’t lose your mind.
Don’t lose your mind.
I was in too harsh a situation to remember two sentences.
The body could not be controlled, and the mind contained only one thought.
Why?
Why should I do that?
An obvious question enters the mind.
Don’t lose your mind.
It’s a promise.
Nevertheless, it is stopped by one thought.
promise? What promise?
Don’t lose your mind.
It’s our promise.
I promised you, don’t lose your mind.
This is also the last bet.
Terrible imaginations and painful evil eat away at me.
How is the self born?
Who am I? What do I do?
Where am I and I…
I…
I can’t lose my mind.
One thought.
Only one thought can put even the ego to sleep.
Still, the words promise and bet that crept into that moment form a pillar.
Don’t lose your mind.
why? Because it is a promise and a bet.
Because I’m a man of my word and I like to win bets.
is it?
Am I human?
Did I keep my promises and have a competitive spirit?
And at the same time, new things were filled with the thought supported by the pillar.
Who is this promise to?
Who are you betting on?
Who are you?
After my formation, your formation.
Only then did I feel it.
hand.
It is a hand holding someone’s hand.
The black world was cold, but my hands were damn warm.
Oh, I can understand everything about promises and payments. It was a single thought for this warmth.
I can give everything to this warmth.
Okay, this hand.
This wakes you and me.
And it wakes us up.
we.
“You’re awake.”
“… shit.”
“I won the bet.”
“We lost. “It’s a shame!”
“Hehehe….”
“Are you ready?”
“huh.”
Me and you, we exist but we are disappearing.
Now, only their joined hands are their image and will.
“It’s moving.”
“Just for a moment, as we wish.”
Giggigigigigig-!
That absolutely can’t be possible.
It brings about a phenomenon that should never happen.
Kwahiah ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Kikigeek…
Kikigeek…
– Ah, why… Me…
A gaping hole in my chest.
The breath that flows through it for a moment.
But now I can’t go back.
You have to say it.
But how? I can’t reach the height!
There is no form, but there is perception.
If you can’t get up there, you can’t say anything.
Suddenly increasing height.
Someone underneath had me put my legs on his shoulders.
“Uuuuuu! “Now tell them that’s enough.”
“Sister….”
“Come on! I do not have time!”
Because their hands are also disappearing.
– Ah ah…
father.
– Thank you…
thank you.
It was you.
– We…
we
– did…
were… happy.
– I told you… I…
I told you.
“Kwaaaaaaaaa!”
[I inherited the legacy of ‘Gwynn.’]
[I inherited the legacy of ‘Legriff.’]
…
A man who opens his eyes.
He looked at the ceiling and the faces of a man and a woman.
Both of them were crying.
“Ugh… Ugh….”
Seolhong hugged him.
“It came back… It came back… I’m glad… I’m glad…”
The pain reached after half a year of recovery.
It is a new leap forward…
[The King of Shadows, ‘Snowman’, steps up as a challenger!]
[Heaven looks forward to his challenge!]
…
