Chapter 301 – Will

000

Wearing the armor made of blue scales was impossible with Amelia alone.

Besides, what I care about is the inside of that armor.

The amulets of Hae-Yong, closely attached to almost all sides.

Amelia couldn’t even fathom how much of a curse the armor had.

As Edin instructed, Amelia stood inside the magic circle installed in the studio.

The mechanical arms under his control he removed each part of the blue armor and brought it to Amelia.

Body, shoulders, arms, skirts, and legs and hands.

Each part adhered to Amelia’s body as if it were alive.

“Ugh…!”

And, the absorption, or rather the erosion, of the armor that begins right away.

It was as if her magic had been drained from her, and the will of her armor was seeping into her own her.

“As expected, the reaction occurs much faster than when I experimented with Einhejar…”

Seeing the reaction, Edin strokes her beard as if she is satisfied, and then attaches the parts her to her body her.

What Amelia feels from the armor is ‘hate’, ‘anger’, ‘sadness’ and ‘despair’.

The white dragon Asteropetes, who was a dragon who was only guarding the place where he lived, had his heart pulled out and died by Edin, who just wanted a rare material.

The noble white dragon, who had once protected humans during his lifetime, had his horn, heart, eyeballs, and even a piece of scale processed by Edin after he died.

In particular, the white scales he regarded as a symbol of unwavering justice during his lifetime.

Edin has tainted it with blue, the color of her own army.

‘Ed…Din… Edin…!’

Amelia’s head her resonated with Asteropetes’ voice.

The moment Amelia puts on this armor, Amelia also begins to sympathize with Asteropetes’ will her, and her body her gradually gains strength.

Of course, it was Edin who put on the armor from a distance.

Cassius watched Amelia silently with her hands tied.

“Cheuk… All the guys in that armor look like they’re going to kill me. Do you hate me, Asteropetes? If so, let me kill you.”

And, the next thing Amelia’s body was covered with was a metal eyepatch that completely covered her eyes.

In the middle, the form of red eyes that seemed to express a curse was drawn.

The curse immediately consumed Amelia’s eyes her.

‘Please calm down… Baekryong-nim…’

Although she was Amelia who somehow tried to suppress the White Dragon’s will.

The next moment, as she saw the sight of her in her own eyes her, her will her slowly began to fade.

In the place where Cassius had stood before, ‘Edin’ was standing.

‘Is this a hallucination…?’

Amelia immediately noticed that it was the effect of the eyepatch.

And how Edin uses this armor.

The eye patch worn by Amelia made everyone in sight appear to be ‘Edin’.

The white dragon, Asteropetes, has an absolute hatred for Edin.

If everything that catches your eye is Edin, you’ll jump in and try to tear it apart, regardless of what it actually is.

The greater the number, the stronger the white dragon’s anger.

“No… Slowly, unconscious…”

As the White Dragon’s rage grows stronger, Amelia’s consciousness becomes more blurred.

This armor neither protects nor empowers the wearer.

Just provide the physical vessel of muscles and bones to be able to move while wearing armor.

In it, the anger of the white dragon is contained, turning everything in sight into an existence that destroys it.

Right before Amelia’s vision her completely turns red.

Edin-no, he saw Cassius reaching out his hand towards him and casting something magic.

The faintly visible light is a reassuring green.

And before she completely lost her consciousness, Amelia called her confidant her by name.

“Cleon…”

At the end of that, the girl drooped like a marionette whose threads had snapped-

In the next moment, the red eyes glowed under the blindfold, and giggles and giggles. She started to move her body to her.

“Edin… Edin!!!!!”

A resounding roar, a cry of rage.

Destructive sound waves that spread in all directions.

Can we call it the breath of sound?

The power of thunderbolt that the white dragon originally used had already disappeared.

There was no change in being a being with overwhelming physical abilities.

And only scales remain, even if they are processed into armor.

If it could move its body her, it would turn into a walking Ashbringer.

But Edin smiled as he looked at the breath.

The next moment, he presses the button.

The restraints already installed on the armor-

Gleipnir jumped out and tied Amelia- no, the white dragon’s body her.

“Okay. With this, the preparations are complete. Mimir, I acted as I pleased, but praise me for doing a good job. I put a recovery magic on that girl so she wouldn’t die.”

Cassius closed his eyes without answering Edin’s words.

Amelia was swallowed up in a huge hatred that she couldn’t even imagine.

With that child, he could overcome it, Cassius believed.

However, even for the sake of her plan her, having her fight with her comrades and having her experience of having her body her taken away was not clear to Cassius either.

‘…Be patient with me a little longer, Amelia. I will definitely… Try to create the best ending for everything.’

When Cassius first falls into this area.

No, maybe sometime in the past that predicted that future.

Own role.

And Amelia’s future.

For the best ending in one line, created by calculating all of them.

Cassius didn’t care if he became a villain himself or if he was resentful.

And- what I believe in is a magic swordsman guided by the stars.

Please, save Amelia and our world.

“…!”

Cleon felt someone’s thoughts flowing into him through the imprint.

Somewhere, something familiar yet very strange.

Along with the fast beating of his heart his, what reacted was the ‘Dragon Ring’, a dragonic artifact he had hidden in his bosom his.

“…Dragon…? But suddenly in a place like this-“

So far, there are three dragons connected to him through engraving.

Sister Luti Letty and Promise.

They couldn’t be in a place like this, so it was impossible for the imprint to react to the dragon.

But- if there was a being with an imprint, there was Amelia.

Could it be that something happened to Amelia?

“… Are you alright? Cleon. His expression darkened her.”

Perhaps noticing Cleon’s change, Gray carefully asked Cleon.

“…Ah, it’s okay. But I’d better hurry.”

“Of course! Hermes! The sword wants you to open the passage a little faster!”

At Gray’s request, the pendant hanging around his neck was silent for a moment before it lit up.

[Thanks to repeated control, the grasp of the pattern is almost complete. However, it may be difficult to increase the speed beyond this.]

“It’s a sword that does something with guts!”

Cleon tried to say yes to Gray’s unreasonable request, but Hermes answered.

[Guts. It is impossible even if an uncertain concept is applied to me.]

“That’s not true. Hermes is an artificial spirit, and doesn’t he have a will? Guts is the strength of the will! A sword that can do anything with all its strength!”

At Gray’s words, both Hermes and Cleon had no choice but to keep their mouths shut for a moment.

But the next moment, Hermes’ silence ended when the pendant emitted a strong light.

“What, what!?”

Gray looks down at the pendant in dismay, but the next moment a beam fired from Hermes’s pendant flies towards the wounded barrier.

The beam went through without making a hole in the wall and went through several walls all the way back.

“…!?”

“What?”

When Sif and Freyja looked back at Gray in surprise.

Suddenly, there was a huge vibration, and several barriers began to go up at once with a gurgling sound.

“This, this…”

As Gray had requested, it was certain that the opening of the aisle had sped up.

That’s right, because all the walls on one floor went up at once.

“Awesome! What a great sword, Hermes! How did you do it!?”

[…I thought I had to do it, so I did it. …Is this guts?]

“No, no, it’s not something that can happen with guts…!”

Sif couldn’t hide her bewilderment and reached out to examine the pendant containing Hermes.

Profit-

“It’s hot!”

Jumping up his body his, he stepped back.

Was it Sif’s finger her that made a clicking sound just now?

The moment he touched Hermes’ surface, he felt tremendous heat in his hand.

As if surprised by Sif’s reaction, Gre looked down at Hermes himself.

Try to touch the pendant by slightly releasing the blackout suit on his finger.

Profit-

“Hya…!?”

At the same time as a cute girl’s scream, which had never been heard from Gray before, her hand dropped her immediately.

“What, what…? Hermes, hot black like a stone pavement on a summer day…”

[Apparently… The hardware seems to be overheating. Okay. There was no decline in function, so […

“Your voice seems to be a bit relaxed… Heh, if Hermes were talking about it, I’d think so… “

“…Well, but at this speed, the speed to the top floor should be much faster…!”

At Peruluca’s words, Cleon nodded.

However, the problem was then.

Through the open aisle, he also met Einhejar soldiers who would not have had to meet originally.

“Uh, if this is the case, the time will be the same as when opening the doors one by one…!”

“Leave it to me.”

At Gray’s words, Sif lifted the Gungnir he was holding high into the sky.

At the same time, the rune patterns in her eyes her shone.

At the tip of Gungnir’s spear, a group of magical crows appeared and spread out in all directions.

They did not move aimlessly, but flew towards all the Einhejars in sight, and began to annihilate them as if they were melting while pecking at their armor, which could be called their skin.

“Well, if there was such a thing, why didn’t I use it underground…?”

“There were so many enemies underground that I thought my magic power would run out.

“As expected, it’s a weapon that maintained one area…”

Sif nodded at Cleon’s words, then rotated her Gungnir once in her hand and returned it to her back her.

“Come on! Everyone, don’t hesitate, let’s go up quickly! If we waste any more time than this, we might not be able to destroy this fort today!”

002

And, thanks to Hermes, who seemed to have awakened, the party was able to climb to the top floor of the fortress in an instant.

Although Hermes reached a temperature of almost burning.

Fortunately, Gray’s blackout suit blocked Hermes ‘heat of her, allowing him to keep it around her neck of her.

And on the top floor, I saw a door that was a little smaller than the bulkheads I had seen so far.

The things I saw below were huge and made me feel strange, although in fact the wall in front of my eyes was a much normal size.

Cleon put his hand on the handle and turned his wrist to see if the door was locked.

Then, after confirming that he was returning without any problems, he turned to the party and nodded his head.

“…Let’s go in.”

Cleon opens the door and goes inside.

The first thing they saw was countless weapons lined up on both sides.

The weapons were all wrapped in a translucent film, so it seemed impossible to take them out and use them.

And the end of the aisle where movement is permitted.

A dwarf looking at the party while sitting on his throne his installed in his studio.

“Edin…!”

Sif looked at him and opened her eyes wide.

As her anger flowed out of her body, her hair shimmered and her black magic shimmered.

Peru Luca, too, reacted similarly, albeit weakly.

“Here you go, bugs.”

Edin just stared at her party with her chin on her chin.

Coming this far must have already been assumed.

And one more thing that stood out was a masked person standing next to Edin.

“…Is that?”

When Cleon asks, Gray answers.

“It’s that guy! The one who took Amelia…!”

“…”

Cleon didn’t feel any hostility toward them from him, so he wondered if he was really an enemy.

Taking Amelia and offering it to Edin was hardly something that could be forgiven.

“…Where’s Amelia?”

“Do you want to meet me? I’m sorry, but she’s already dead.”

Cleon was silent for a moment, then shook his head.

“No. She’s alive. The connection her to her – the presence of her imprint her is still being felt. It’s weakened, but… I can also feel her being in this room.”

At Cleon’s words her, Edin got excited and snorted at her.

“Yes. He will still be alive physically. But he will die in the end. Either he will die by you, or he will win over you and be swallowed up by the white dragon.”

“──What?”

When Cleon said that, the next moment something fell from above his head.

It was a female warrior in blue armor with her whole body tied with a thin string.

The only exposed parts are her hair and the lower part of her face her.

But that alone allowed Cleon to know that it was Amelia.

“Blue, armor…!”

And that what she was wearing on her body was what Sif had been talking about.

The moment Cleon faced the armor, he could also see that the dragon ring he had hidden in his chest her reacted strongly.

“Could it be the dragon scale armor!”

“Ohhh. I’m well aware of it. And it looks like you have something unusual. I’ll have to kill you guys and get my hands on that too.”

When Edin let out a mean laugh, Cleon pulled out an arondite and aimed it at Edin.

“…It will fall on your side.”

But, the next moment bang! The impact of the swing hit Cleon’s arondite and blew it away.

That was what Amelia did.

What you’re holding in your hand is a steel hammer that appeared out of nowhere.

“Amel…Lea…?”

Cleon, taken aback by the unbelievable sight, continued his speech slowly.

“Edin!!!!”

Amelia’s voice her roared with fury as she charged at Cleon.

“What, what are you doing Amelia! That’s Cleon, not Edin!”

“Wrong, insane! Because of that armor!”

Once the party tries to move her foot her to somehow stop Amelia.

The weapons hanging on the walls of the studio were ejected and attacked the party except for Cleon.

“What, what! The weapons are moving on their own!”

“No way, even the souls of his own people…!”

Edin spoke with a fishy laugh at Freyja’s words her.

“Now! My slaves! Tear the intruder to death, and bring me his soul!”

On the other hand, Cleon, who was crushed by Amelia and crossed her arms her to somehow block her fists her.

Seeing Edin’s story and her colleague’s crisis, she reached out her hand, biting her lip.

“Mana Shock!”

Paperweight! When the black lightning strikes, Amelia’s body her bounces off and Cleon is able to raise her body her.

It didn’t seem to have done much damage to Amelia, though.

“…Sorry, Amelia. I’ll save you somehow.”

“Edin… I’ll kill you… You and your world…!”

Looking at Amelia, who already did not recognize her, Cleon reached out to her, and the arondite, which flew away her, returned to his hand her.

Then, take her stance her and confront Amelia.

Save her and return to her original world her.

For her sake, he had no choice but to knock her down.
