chapter 39
39 – 38.
“Was the Grand Duke there too?”
“Yes. At the time, my older brother and I were quite close with Arbo, and it was difficult to refuse his request,”
Ah, I heard that Arbo is somehow particularly friendly to me, so that’s why.
The Archduke, who was momentarily interrupted by my question, spoke again.
“There are a lot of prey.”
The wolf that reached the forest was so happy.
The king of giants and the first knight aimed their spears and swords, and the queen of elves raised her bow, all protected by the world tree.
The mixed army of giants, humans and elves greeted the army of beasts following the wolf, and all three dragons watched.
The first to move was the Giant King.
Depending on the owner’s will, the spear, which could be smaller than an ant or larger than a mountain, was shot at the wolf while inflating its size.
“Huh.”
The wolf lightly swung his front paw and deflected the spear.
A single swing created huge wind pressure and blew the allies away, but no one was fatally injured or killed under the protection of the World Tree.
When the Giant King’s spear didn’t produce much results, the first knight came next.
Compared to the Giant King and the Wolf, he was as small as a worm, but by no means insignificant.
The knight jumped at the wolf.
Rising above the wolf’s head in one leap, he drew his sword.
“O beast king. Please accept it.”
The sword of the knight who is called a king and someone who is called a god drew a slow trajectory.
At this, the wolf swung its paws once more, and the aura and wind pressure violently clashed, creating a roar.
The knight was blown away, and the wolf was bleeding.
How long has it been since you shed blood?
How long has it been since you felt the pain?
The wolf admired the knight.
Before I ate the world tree, I thought I wanted to whet my appetite with that article.
After thinking that, the wolf turned his gaze to the world tree.
Despite being far away, it smelled of fragrant grass.
How fragrant it would be if you bit into that world tree and chewed its branches and leaves.
At that thought, the wolf’s mouth watered, and the Green Dragon, who watched it, became enraged.
“Beast, I will pluck out her eyes, so that I will never look at her like that again.”
A larger magic circle covered a wolf bigger than Mount Tai.
The giant king, who had thought that his magic was no less than that of the dragon, realized his arrogance.
Even in the days when it was still called Taego, Arbo was an ancient dragon.
Feeling a sense of danger, the wolf shuddered and opened his mouth.
Wolves had the power to devour anything.
Whether it was a magic circle or magic that had already been activated, he intended to eat it.
““Shut up, beast.””
The half-open mouth slammed shut with a bang.
It was not the wolf’s will.
As the black and white dragons wished, the wolf’s mouth fell shut.
The wolf knew what that power was.
Dragons that had been bitten to death days ago also used that kind of power, and whenever they did, their bodies temporarily lost control.
However, after passing a certain level, that technique did not work for him, but this time it was different.
Is it because there are two of them, or is it because the black dragon is so strong?
The wolf also knew the black dragon.
Before he became as huge as he is now, he visited himself several times and looked down at him with a disapproving expression before returning.
At that time, what did he do?
Yes, I was scared.
Now he was afraid of that dragon, which was so small compared to himself.
“Rurr.”
As the memory of that time came to mind, the wolf became displeased.
I was thinking of opening my mouth again and swallowing that black dragon.
But before the wolf opened its mouth, Arbo’s magic was completed.
Fire, Lightning. Wind. Water. Earth. Ice.
The powers of the various gods unfolded through the will of the dragon.
The wolf was covered in flames that were hotter than the Spirit King’s but less than the fire god’s.
The water that could fill a huge lake condensed and condensed and poured into the wolf as a spear, supported by lightning and wind.
The wolf’s legs froze, and the ground became fetters and bound the wolf’s feet.
The spear, which was a mixture of water, wind, and lightning, was shot at the wolf’s eye.
“Arboga, is it that strong?”
“Hmm. Yes. But you have nothing to worry about. He is stagnant and her original daughter is strong, so now she will not be pushed back by him.”
“Then, the Guardian Dragon.”
“Hmm. My brother is stronger than that. You will be much stronger than I am now. If it hadn’t been for my brother, he would never have been able to seal the wolf that day.”
“Sealed… ?”
Sealed.
“Did you really need to seal it?”
“There was no need to seal it. There is no choice but to seal it. Because we couldn’t kill the wolf.”
“Yes… ?”
As the Grand Duke said, the king of giants and the knight god Sarion. The world tree and three dragons were in one place. Still, you couldn’t kill a wolf?
“You are joking too much.”
“Just kidding, I hope so.”
The Archduke’s voice was so serious that I had no choice but to stiffen my face.
“Such a monster, is it awake?”
Then it’s a disaster.
Compared to the devil, no. Perhaps a more dangerous catastrophe.
The Demon King described in ‘Chien Chronicles’ was as strong as a dragon, but it was not enough to deal with six transcendents at once.
“Not yet. If he had truly awakened, the original woman would have known. However, since I found a way to wake him up again, the beast must have moved. However, even if he awakens, he will not be able to show his strength as much as before, as he will have been weakened by the long seal.”
Damn it.
I thought it was a war that could definitely be won, even if it took quite a bit of damage.
If such a monster is the enemy, can we guarantee victory?
… There is a way.
“Master. If Master and I are together, will he be able to tie up the wolf?”
“For a while.”
“Then, that’s it.”
Empire has world capital, elves too. There are no giants or knights.
“Teacher, please take charge of the main body of beastmen. I will prepare for wolves.”
However, in the Empire, there are magicians, and there are knights.
Again, there is a hero and I am.
Chien Chronicles.
Contrary to the name of the game, Cien’s life did not end even in the ending.
There must have been a sequel, and perhaps it was a game about the story of Shien and the gods and transcendents.
I don’t know what Shien’s role will be in that game, but I thought it wouldn’t be a role to just be helpless.
Also, I am.
A thousand years.
The empire has been established on this land for a thousand years.
The most sacred Kiriyado, the most evil one who dwells in the abyss.
The dragons too.
Recognize this land as an empire.
For a thousand years, the empire was deeply engraved on the continent, and it soon became a law.
So this land belonged neither to the gods nor to the Dragon Lord, but only to the emperor.
Although in a thousand years, its true power has never been revealed because no emperor has realized it, but now I am.
No matter how strong the beast of old is, it will not be helpless.
While communicating with the Grand Duke, it was discovered that another Transcendentalist had set foot in the system.
“Then, Master, I will ask for a hand sign.”
“You?”
“First, I’ll clean up Edelwein and see you.”
It’s time to finish the bad relationship 300 years ago before welcoming the wolf.
“Your Majesty, Duke Pale has arrived.”
Okay, perfect timing for once.
————————————————————————
I went to the place where I felt the energy of the transcendent with the Imperial Knight Commander Peltz, the Duke of Pale, and the Sorcerer Commander Kraul.
There is the King of Tamiel and the Knight of the Red Greatsword. A silver-haired wizard and a man wearing a jeweled mask were waiting for us.
“Are you Lordaeron?”
“That’s right. Are you an Arhan then?”
Duke Peltz and Pale pulled out their swords at the bottom of the gnome, and the knight with the red greatsword also pulled out their swords.
I wanted to have a conversation before going into battle, so I raised my hand to stop them and answered.
“Yes, I am Arhan. Just like you.”
Whether it’s on the father’s side or the mother’s side.
If you inherited the blood of Arhan, that person is Arhan.
If it weren’t for the special situation of the war with Edelwein, Lordaeron would have also received the castle of Arhan.
“I am Edelwein.”
As if he couldn’t stand being called Arhan because he was sick of it, he gave strength to each word and spat it out.
“Is that so?”
In fact, it is very important how you perceive yourself when you reach the level of transcendentalism.
Even if everyone in the world regards Lordaeron as a descendant of Arhan, if he himself considers himself Edelwein, then he must be Edelwein.
“Edelbein. Why did he join hands with the beast?”
“Is it only a beast? If I can burn down your abominable empire, I can join hands with the devil.”
“Even if the demons return, they will not burn the empire.”
“I see, the empire will have already been reduced to ashes!”
Crying out like that, Lordaeron opened the barrier.
“Your Majesty!”
Duke Pale shouted as if to be careful, but the moment I saw Lordaeron for the first time, I knew that the author was not my adversary.
It was my first full-scale battle after becoming a transcendentalist, but when I met another transcendentalist, I realized once again how sublime the realm I had reached was.
“Duke, Sir Peltz. Sir Crow. Take over the servants of Lordaeron.”
After giving those instructions, I walked into Lordaeron’s barrier.
