Chapter 431 – Temporary Alliance (3)
“Then, now you know the approximate goal, and at this level, it seems that you have built a relationship of trust. Shall we talk about the specific plans soon? What would you like us to do?”
“Ah, we just have to fight together. All preparations have already been made.”
“?”
It overturns and isolates the realm of evil spirits specializing in barriers, sucks out all distorted beliefs, and then covers them with correct beliefs to restore the past.
It’s hard to say, and it’s even harder to do it in practice, but I’ve already finished the preparations… ?
While I was chatting about recovering and taking a mental break in the Jarnshad Territory?
What. Tarla, why are you so talented?
You can compare her to Carla, who pushes in from the side asking for more cheek stabbing.
Of course, when it comes to cuteness, Carla wins by landslide, so in the end, it’s teacher teacher, but… Still, I can’t help but ask.
“What the hell was your plan, so you’re already ready?”
“Let’s see. First, we secured a route to the center of the realm. Of course, I also knew the location of the curved margin seal.”
“What?”
It would take a long time to do just one of the two, but they said they finished both a long time ago?
Numerous troops are not gathered at this outpost for nothing. It’s because they don’t know where the strength to push the territory and the seal that is the center of the army are.
But, did Tarla solve it so quickly? It doesn’t even end here.
“Since I have a bunch of tentacles buried in key locations in the central barrier, I can erode them whenever I want. The Fallen Ceremony is too conspicuous to set up in advance, so it’s still… Instead, I engineered a few tentacles to get you started right away. As a bonus, I prepared a way to intercept the crooked monster as a sacrifice for my ritual.”
“… How did you do it? Keep in mind that if we are not prepared for that, we will suffer.”
“Do not worry. If you have the Stealth Power, you can reach the center of the realm much more easily, and to reverse the barriers within the realm, just use the Power of Unity to take ownership of the barrier. If you take away the divine power of composure with the power of absorption, it will be easier to carry out the Fallen Ritual, and since you have the power of strong body, you will be able to withstand the burden on your body.”
“You need to express different powers at the same time? Is that really possible?”
“Who do you think I am? No matter how he looked like this, he was a perfect apostle that all evil spirits coveted and envied. This is a piece of cake.”
“Huh…”
“Hehe.”
Tarla looked at me with a slightly elated expression. This is the same as Carla. What… It’s only natural that it’s the same person.
While nodding your head inwardly. Iona, who was listening to Tarla’s story, tilted her head.
“You know, you know. If you’re ready that much, can’t you just do it alone? Do you really need help?”
“That’s it…”
Tarla, who hesitated for a moment, sighed and continued her words.
“We lack the strength to carry out all these plans. I can’t fight properly during the process.”
“Aha?”
As if she finally understood, Iona nodded her head.
Haha A cultist performing a ritual is just as vulnerable as a casting wizard.
Just as the cult leaders of the reckless roar surrounding the city died in vain when they went to liberate the besieged Solaris the other day.
What… I didn’t expect to start the ritual by sacrificing the dead like that.
“I get it, I get it. I understand a little bit now. So, big Karla, you will be in charge of everything related to the Fallen Ceremony, so we just have to escort you in the meantime, right?”
“You’re only half right, Professor. It doesn’t end with escorting, I want you to take charge of the offensive to cut down the divine power of the bent leisure. And the role of instilling the right faith.”
“It’s faith, Helena and Kwangmyeong-nim will take care of it, but… Offensive? Have you thought of anything?”
“Unlike other evil spirits, it is extremely difficult to project power directly outside the seal, both in terms of ability and personality. That’s why I’m going to give my followers divine power and try to recover the barrier that was eroded by me.”
“Good! Nice! It means that if you kill all the cultists who are carrying out a suspicious ceremony, the invested divine power will evaporate!”
“That’s right. In addition, if I seize more than half of the control, I can speed up the ritual by sacrificing all the monsters that die in the area.”
“What. Could that be the power of turbid unity?”
“Yes. I saw it being used in the Jarnshard Territory and practiced it once, and it worked.”
“It’s done… Ugh!”
Iris, whose PTSD came out of nowhere at Tarla’s words, began to pat her on the shoulder.
He must have thought that the deceitful talent of the Lindelheit family was expressed in fields other than magic.
That wouldn’t be very wrong. However, the proportion of acquired talents will be greater than innate talents.
It is said that he handles the authority of evil spirits well… It is only possible to bear the hell related to it within oneself.
As she was an ugly prosperous saint, it is only natural that she handles the ugly prosperous powers well, but learning the powers of other evil spirits well is not a blessing, but rather a proof of her deep inner darkness.
Even after that, Tarla faithfully answers other people’s questions. As she watched it, she suddenly pushed her face towards her.
“Yandel. Don’t you have something to ask me?”
“Doesn’t exist. I heard everything I needed to hear.”
“Huh. Then may I ask you this time?”
“What?”
As she raised her head, Tarla’s eyes curved into crescents.
“Why don’t you call me by my name?”
“Uh, um.”
“I won’t tell you to call me Carla. Because she already has someone she calls that. But isn’t she what you can call a big Carla like everyone else?”
That’s right. Until now, I had been consciously avoiding names. I honestly don’t know what to call her.
While thinking about it for a while. Carla, who had approached her before she knew it, crossed her arms and began to growl!
“Under! It’s because I’m the only one, Karla, to my master! Fakes go away! Her face is so close!”
“Carla. Isn’t fake a bit harsh… ?”
Saying that, he secretly looked into Tarla’s eyes. This won’t upset the alliance, but we’ll have to fight together soon, so there’s no need to hurt each other.
However, Tarla, who thought she would cry, calmly nodded her head.
“That is not wrong. I must be fake. A fake drawn from an improbable future.”
“That…”
“But it doesn’t matter. I still think I am Carla Lindelheit, and she has memories of Carla Lindelheit. However, Carla of this era… In your words, I think it is necessary to differentiate her from the real Karla to some extent.”
“Ah, over there… That is… !”
I spit it out and tried it once, but when I think about it, I think she was a bit harsh, so Carla is restless.
Tarla looked at Karla as if she was cute, then turned her gaze back to me.
“So, Yandel. You decide.”
“… What?”
“What are you going to call me? What is the difference between me and this child. And… What our relationship is like. You decide, Yandel.”
“…”
Aren’t the words a bit meaningful?
Am I not the only one who thought that way? Carla was also tilting her head at her extension. She probably can’t tell if she’s making fun of what she said or if she’s serious.
With Karla in the background, she organized her thoughts and finally opened her mouth.
“Tarla.”
“Yes?”
“I’ll call you Tarla. Doesn’t the pronunciation sound similar at first glance? I have only one Carla, but she does not mean to deny your existence. So, tar It’s a compromise, but… How is it?”
“You only have one Carla… ?”
“Oh. Not good?”
In fact, she just gave an appropriate reason to the abbreviation of the fallen Karla she used to call her inside. For a while, she was worried that she might have been caught.
For some reason, she laughed as Tarla, who was in a good mood, covered her own mouth.
“Whoop, whoop. Ahahaha. It’s okay that yes. Tarla? Please call me that from now on, Yandel.”
“Uh… Huh. I’m glad you like it.”
She nodded her head in bewilderment. Tarla’s true etymology must be kept secret until the end.
***
Tarla.
The tone itself wasn’t bad, but the meaning contained in it was what Tarla liked.
‘I only have one Carla. It’s so passionate.’
Yes. Tarla again! Also! She was completely misunderstood!
The Karla that Yandel spoke of is her words that she is the only one, and she is the Karla of the previous episode to herself… So she interpreted it to mean that there was only one Tarla!
It was such a leap that a startled platypus flew through the sky with her tail, but Tarla herself was completely unaware.
That’s also true, because the object of hatred has changed, but nothing has changed in the essence of Tarla.
In other words, she is still half out of her mind.
She said, ‘This is why she likes the man who bought her as a slave and treated her as a slave, no matter how well she treated her. Now that I look at it, her face seems to be a bit of a taste…’
Tarla has been feeling generous for the first time in a while. Is that why? She no longer heard the negative whispers that always tickled her ears.
The aftereffects of her mental collapse. The hallucinations, which could not be corrected by anything, had so easily disappeared.
Of course, this will be a temporary phenomenon. But Tarla had no doubts that if she was by Yandel’s side, she would feel the same satisfaction as she did now, again and again.
Tarla’s smile, distorted like her weary person, regained her true form just a little bit.
Recognizing this, Tarla, who became more amused, was still drowsy, but she opened her mouth with a much more smiley expression than before.
“So, is the story over? Why don’t you lightly guess her hand now? I know and you all know that a plan like this needs to be done as soon as possible before it turns into a variable… Still, it will take a minimum of practice.”
The truth is, you don’t have to.
In the first place, Tarla focused on her consciousness, and Yandel and the others shared their roles, saying that it was combat and instilling faith.
But she, Tarla, wanted to be with her a little longer. She wanted to enjoy a little more comfort. That was it.
Just like a flying insect that finds light in the dark is blindly drawn to it.
I don’t know how it will end.
