Chapter 386 – The Guest From the North
For a while, we were busy without a second glance.
I didn’t have time to get used to the dragon heart and the magic I got from Rebecca at the same time.
Karla started researching the Lintbloom Breathing Method, as if something flashed from the fact that my Lintbloom Core had turned into a dragon heart.
Elisha and Iris further refined their recently acquired vision.
Fay also gained a lot this time, so she digested it and applied it to her own research, so she stayed in her workshop with little sleep.
I said that she drank my blood for a long time and that something had changed in her body. Of course, her teaching job was properly paralleled.
Lastly, it seems that Helena and Solari were inspired by the corrupt Karla, who was still wielding mighty powers even after the ugliness of prosperity had disappeared.
I’ve said everything because I’ve been working hard on practicing the power while reducing the time to pray.
This alone is enough to fill a day’s schedule, but it didn’t end here.
I took down the ugly flourish. Everyone knew it because there were many eyewitnesses, and it was heavily publicized in the Levantine Empire and Alfheim.
It was an unknown fact that even the boiling silence was extinguished. … Until Rebecca testifies.
Of course, at first, the reaction of not believing was bigger.
No wonder. It’s an ugly prosperity. Aren’t the various conditions met, and Alfheim and the circulating life’s help were able to defeat it?
However, they suddenly attacked with less than 10 people and captured another evil god in a few days? No matter how much Rebecca’s testimony is, you won’t easily believe it. So will my country.
However, the story changed when the circulating life that belatedly lent Mistiltein gave additional testimony, and the Seething Calm followers who were being interrogated rapidly weakened and even lost their powers.
As everyone started to believe, the interest in me, which was already considerable, skyrocketed.
“It really bothers me… Why are there so many events?”
“Shall I massage your shoulders, Master?”
“No, I can tap on your shoulder, so give me a massage on my back that I can’t reach.”
After saying that, he collapsed on the bed. Carla’s touch felt shortly thereafter.
Karla climbed on top of me and started massaging her back and waist.
“Yeah… By the way, master. If it’s that hard, wouldn’t it be okay to just refuse to be called out here and there? The training you are doing now is also important.”
“Huh. It won’t be a problem even if you tell me not to call you because of training. However, the war situation is not bad right now, is it? At times like this, I have to go around and show my face.”
There is no change in the fact that fierce battles are taking place in the center and west where the Levantine Empire is holding out, in the east where the Good God Church and the Alliance of Small and Medium Nations are united, and in the Dwarven Kingdom of Nidavalir.
But not the South. It’s because he killed the ugly prosperous and seized the perfect victory.
However, since Alfheim’s burden was so great, they couldn’t send support anywhere… Krasius is different.
Originally, they were the guys who received a lot of investment to deal with the ugly prosperous army. But there was nothing to fight properly, right? They didn’t even send reinforcements properly.
In other words, it is said to be in a state of conserving power considerably.
Normally, you would keep your mouth shut and save your country’s strength, but in this world, a hegemon that ate half of the continent… The Levantine Empire exists.
When I stand on the side of the Levantine Empire and show my face here and there, the Empire uses me as a hero to put political pressure on Krasius.
That’s why I’m being called out these days.
“Still, it’s good that there is a teleport. It’s impossible to use it several times in a row like Professor Iona, but I can do it once or twice.”
“How long has it been since you learned how to write so skillfully… To the master, there is no difference between low-level magic and high-level magic. I feel that way sometimes.”
“That’s what…”
Could it be thanks to the correction of the status window and dragon heart?
“I can understand why the owner continues to show his face at the event even though he is tired. But… Will Krasius listen to me?”
“You should listen. Can’t you hear me?”
Wasn’t it possible that I was able to arm myself like this in the first place because the Levantine Empire spared no material support because of my strong insistence?
At first, it was the Kingdom of Krasius, who pretended not to know because it was at war with the lofty reign, but…
In the first place, the lofty reigns were those who came to tinker for a while in the process of changing the destination to Alfheim as the ugly prosperity.
Now that ugly flourishes have failed. They must have already retreated and scattered.
Since they are things that are needlessly high in ego, wouldn’t each of them be fighting where they want to fight? What would be the point of calling it military force?
Anyway, in that situation, as I became more and more famous and my position grew, the Kingdom of Krasius began to notice.
“If Alfheim, who was about to perish here, condemns Krasius’ selfish behavior, that’s it. We will have no choice but to send reinforcements to the East.”
“Really?”
“Huh. Right now, the forces of evil spirits are stronger than I thought, so I was just scared. Aren’t the beastmen basically a warlike race?”
Are you afraid? Evebeb~ He said he was scared! If you scratch them gently with the same feeling, they will eventually run out.
How can the well-armed reinforcements of Krasius be added to the eastern front, which are on equal footing?
If we do well, we’ll be able to push through from this side, and if we go further, the cultists who are in the middle of unsealing the evil god might interfere with their plans.
Was it Dongbu-myeon, the place where narrow-minded usurpation and its followers were located? The other day, Iona and I robbed an undead warehouse.
If we’re really good, we might be able to drive his forces out of the East before the narrow-minded usurpation descends.
It won’t be as weakened as the Seething Silence, so I won’t be able to get it out of the seal and kill it… You can keep the seal under your control.
Mistiltein was properly recovered and stored in the inventory.
If you attach it to the seal of narrow-minded usurpation, you will no longer be able to recover your power or project your divine power to the outside world.
Then, when you see the opportunity, it’s best if you throw it away somewhere on the other side of the dimension while it’s sealed.
“What… Things in the world don’t go the way you think, so it won’t work out this far. Still, being able to block the descent of evil spirits is enough.”
“It’s worth trying if there’s no evil god that can change the war situation alone. … But what about the apostle?”
“An apostle of evil spirits is definitely annoying. Because I have been using the power itself since I was a believer, I quickly get used to the power of an apostle, so if I miss the right time, I will become stronger in an instant.”
But being an apostle is not something anyone can do. No matter how much power he has, what’s the point if he doesn’t have a vessel to receive that power?
You can make an apostle by force, but you don’t have to worry because the guy who made it won’t be able to draw out the power properly and will die right away.
“Even though an apostle is strong, he is not a high-ranking opponent like a demon. Even if he doesn’t quite reach the archmage, if you hit him hard, he can kill.”
“… He must have been experimenting with how hard he had to hit to die.”
“Hmmmm.”
In the early days of H&A, there were so many attempts.
For example, by maximizing the power of one shot, killing the enemy, or just blocking the high-powered gimmick pattern of an instant kill by ignoring defense, or investing everything in evasion and walking around the battlefield wearing only panties.
Some have been successful, but many more have failed.
Unfortunately, most of the content I can’t use right now because it feels like testing the limits of the game system… Still, some indirect information can be gleaned.
Since an apostle is treated as a half-god, it can hurt the physical body, but since it is not a completely transcendent being, it is said that it can be hurt even with ordinary attacks.
“Okay? An apostle’s weakness is that he will die if his head and body are separated!”
“No one is alive after being decapitated!”
“Well. Wouldn’t it be possible with Professor Iona? Your heart won’t be fine.”
“Professor Iona is a vampire!”
“What? Are you saying Professor Lee Ona isn’t even a person?! You really talk too much, Carla…”
“Oh, no, why are you talking like that… !”
Embarrassed, Carla chuckled at her and shook her head.
For a while, I giggled at the thought that I still had a personality that was easy to tease. Realizing that she was joking, she said Carla in her slightly pouting tone.
“… I always think about it, but the owner is too mean.”
“So? No?”
“Didn’t you say you didn’t like it?”
Carla shuts her mouth and presses my back again.
She was halfway giggling at her blatant reaction to that.
Bang!
The door suddenly opened violently. When Karla and I looked back at the same time, Fay was there, breathing heavily.
“Huh, junior! I’m in trouble! Hide me!”
“Yes? Where can I hide here… Rather, why are you doing that all of a sudden?”
“Guests are coming!”
“Uh… Did Fei-senpai have any friends?”
Faye shouted at me who tilted her head.
“Where are my friends! It’s a vassal! My father’s vassal has come to get me!”
“What?”
Who would dare to take Gongsuni, a small girl with big breasts and a beautiful girl, from me!
“By the way, Fei-senpai was also aware that she had no friends, right?”
“Hey!!!”
It was winter.
