Lord of Training - Chapter 109



Only Krnovel

109. Now is the time to increase power.

“Is training over already?”

Veronica came over and asked.

“As you can see, those guys are weak······.”

Lieutenant John with a bump on his forehead and Ensign Jester with a bruise on his thigh.

“Oh my, that must hurt a lot.”

Veronica walked towards the two men, holding the first aid kit.

You have such a kind heart.

So, I have no hesitation in calling her a saint.

I lay down for a while in the shade of a palm tree.

I thought it would be nice to work hard in the estate later and spend a month here on summer vacation.

I don’t know when that time will come.

The dwarves have also established themselves in the mountains, and the orcs are also expanding their bases within the gates.

If I hadn’t sent the gold I had taken from the secret vault of the Nubua palace, the Hebrok estate would have also suffered from financial difficulties.

Money is still pouring in like a bottomless pit, but if the two races settle in······.

‘Our territory will develop faster than anywhere else. We will also possess a powerful military force.’

It was while I was admiring the scenery at the beach.

Major Phelps and Captain Herman returned.

With him.

The elf prince Evolod saw me and strode towards me.

“Are you really able to take an elf to the labyrinth gate?”

He is a guy who hates wasting time.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen you, but you didn’t even say hello.

“Long time no see. How have you been?”

“Tell me quickly. The elves will soon be dragged into battle.”

“Which battlefield?”

There are three places where the Lacrosse Empire’s troops are gathering, as he mentioned before.

The Kingdom of Bavaria in the north, the southern continent, and the northern S-rank labyrinth gate.

“The elf goes to where the kingdom of Baern is.”

Although the North is a cold land, it is home to many large, deep forests.

This is where the Elf Rangers’ abilities are at their peak.

“How big do you think the S-rank labyrinth gate conquest force will be?”

Evolod had a frustrated expression on his face.

But information came first.

“About 200 aerial magic knights will participate. There are 3 named-level ones, and 1,000 regular magic knights.”

“1,000 people?”

I opened my mouth without realizing it.

Even if the empire has a large population, you’re saying it can accommodate 1,000 magic knights?

200 Airborne Magic Knights understand.

Because the Empire had nearly 500 aerial magic knights.

And the Labyrinth Gate was no better place to level up and awaken spells, and the Aerial Magic Knight could fly, so he could avoid the monsters of the terrestrial dimension.

However, since ordinary magic knights cannot fly, their chances of survival are greatly reduced.

Even though they are magic knights, at least 20 to 30% of them will come out dead.

‘They’re trying to increase the number of aviation magic articles.’

By replacing the normal magic knights.

The Empire was serious about conquering the continent.

“And we plan to fill it up to 10,000 people, including regular soldiers.”

They even sent nearly 9,000 soldiers through the labyrinth gate!

In the last attack, the Empire also sent 5,000 people to the Labyrinth Gate.

But it was fun because surprisingly many awakened soldiers appeared.

The number of aviation magic knights has also increased considerably.

The problem is that half of the soldiers die at the gate.

The emperor of the empire was clearly a man obsessed with conquest.

“Alain Bombard! Now answer my question.”

Evolod urged.

“Everyone, get ready! Enter the labyrinth gate.”

“yes!”

Evolod looked surprised.

“Are you going in now?”

“Well, it’s better to try it once than to explain it a hundred times.”

Evolod had a very nervous expression on his face.

The Fourth Battalion and Saint Veronica packed their bags, and I took the Elf Prince to the gate in front of the waterfall.

“This is it! The gate leading into the labyrinth gate.”

Evolod looked half-hearted at the gate.

Because from the outside it looked like just a normal dimensional gate.

Evolod held out something.

“Take this.”

“what?”

“It’s a map. A map inside the Labyrinth Gate.”

“Wow! You even made a map······.”

After all, it is an empire.

When I first went inside here, the imperial soldiers must have been surveying and even making maps.

“Everyone is gathered.”

“Okay, let’s go in!”

We entered through the backdoor gate.

***

Wheeeeeeing!

“This is the land of our ancestors?”

Evolod, who came out to the oasis, had an expression of disbelief.

But I’m sure you feel it too.

Because of the thick concentration of mana, even the air you breathe will be different.

“Let’s hurry! There’s only one week left before the Imperial Army comes in.”

“Where are we going now?”

Evolod asked.

“To meet your ancestors.”

“what?”

“Once you go, you’ll know.”

I looked at Phelps.

“We take turns carrying the Evolod.”

“No! I can run and catch up.”

I shook my head.

“There’s a S-class scorpion monster living in the desert. It’ll only follow you.”

Then Evolod reluctantly gave his permission.

He has always hated flying.

“Saint Veronica, please check the location to the west where the medium and small dimensional cores are located together.”

“yes!”

Veronica closed her eyes for a moment.

It was to find the high elf Iris.

I radioed with her a little while ago on Backdoor Island.

She and her crew said they were currently catching an S-class monster.

“It’s over there.”

Veronica got the hang of it right away.

Because she was a living dimensional core detector.

“let’s go!”

***

Moved for a week.

Tata tang! Tata tang!

Boom! Boom boom!

“Over there!”

Finding Iris and the crew was very easy.

I took Veronica’s direction and as I got closer I heard gunshots and explosions.

“stop!”

We landed on a rocky mountain.

The agents were currently hunting a S-class giant mantis-type dimensional monster in the forest.

“Phelps, go help me!”

“Yes! The 4th Battalion is moving out!”

“let’s go!”

Phelps and the 4th Battalion flew out with their rifles within a week.

Veronica looked at the crew with a regretful expression.

I guess she wants to fight too.

But since she doesn’t have high-speed flight skills yet, she’s just a burden.

But since it’s already at level 3 in low-speed flight, it’s grown at an incredible rate.

If only she weren’t a saint, I would want to take her as a member of the battalion.

Paaaaang!

At that moment, Iris, who had been watching from high in the sky, flew towards me.

“Oh! Alain! You’re here!”

Iris smiled brightly at me.

“Why don’t you hunt together?”

“I cut off the monster’s wings. Now, the team members will be able to hunt it down. It will take some time, though.”

“Oh! Really?”

The fact that the members can kill an S-class dimensional monster is a huge growth.

As expected, the more you roll it, the stronger it becomes.

“Huh? You’re a forest elf clan!”

Iris was delighted to see Evolod.

On the other hand, Evolod had been looking at Iris with surprised eyes for a while now.

I told Evolod.

“How is it? I told you I would introduce you. This is the high elf Iris. She slept for a thousand years, but I found her and woke her up a while ago.”

“W-There really were high elves······.”

Evolod swallowed dry saliva.

Iris stood before Evolod.

“Is this the elf prince you were talking about?”

I nodded.

Although Iris was younger than Evolod, Iris was the ancestor of the elves who woke up after a thousand years of sleep.

“Nice to meet you. I am Iris Rekeyan of the High Elf clan. I specialize in aerial combat and hunting dimensional monsters.”

“Oh, it’s called Evolod.”

Evolod felt as if his body was frozen.

High elves are mysterious even among elves.

He had never seen a high elf, but he knew about them because he had heard about them from the elders of his tribe.

“You must have had a hard time. I heard from Alain. He said you were leading five thousand elves?”

“Yes, it is.”

“cheer up.”

Pat! Pat!

Iris placed her hand on Evolod’s shoulder, which was larger than her, and patted him affectionately.

It was the first time I had seen Iris like that.

It was as if the affection was that of an older sister towards her youngest sibling.

“Are you all forest elf clans?”

“yes.”

“It’s a shame. Forest elves can’t awaken the flying spell.”

“Why is that so?”

I asked because I was curious.

Evolod and the elves ran incredibly fast and had awakened many magic spells, but there wasn’t a single flying magic knight.

“Forest elves receive their energy from the earth and the forest. That means their strength decreases as they move away from the ground. It’s the opposite of heavenly. But in the forest, they are unrivaled warriors. They are also the most numerous among the elven clan.”

Evolod looked disappointed at Iris’ explanation.

He seemed to know that too.

“Are there any other elves like you in the spirit world?”

“I don’t know about that. The spirit realm is too vast and complex to find another clan. And there are too many dimensional monsters, so it’s dangerous.”

Iris nodded.

“Let’s go find out together sometime. If the forest elf clan survived, there must be other clans as well.”

“yes.”

Evolod somehow seemed like a docile lamb.

and.

‘Why is the saint doing this?’

Saint Veronica knelt down, clasped her hands together, and looked at Iris.

Ah! Dimensional Core!

The dimensional energy stored in my body had also increased significantly, reaching a level of about half that of a small dimensional core fragment.

But Iris has a medium-sized dimensional core, so she looks like she’s met a god.

“Greetings, Iris. This is Saint Veronica.”

“Saint?”

Iris approached and extended her hand to Veronica.

“I am Iris Rekeyan of the High Elf clan.”

“Angel! It is an honor. My name is Veronica.”

“angel?”

Iris tilted her head.

I chuckled.

They say I am a messenger of God, but they say Iris is an angel.

Iris did look like an angel.

“The Saintess has the ability to find where dimensional cores and dimensional gates are. Of course, she can also find out where S-class dimensional monsters are in real time.”

Iris opened her eyes wide.

In fact, during the entire week leading up to this point, we never once encountered an S-class dimensional monster.

Because Veronica warned us of the danger in advance.

Iris took Veronica’s hand and raised her body.

“I look forward to working with you in the future, Miss Veronica.”

“I have something to say. Please take care of me. Angel Iris!”

The introduction is roughly over.

Evolod’s eyes wavered, and he was staring intently at Iris, as if his mind was going through a lot of complicated things.

I deliberately approached Iris and treated her in a friendly manner.

It’s only a matter of time before the elves join hands with me.

[Uses the skill Dynamic Vision (lv.3).]

“The giant locust monster is almost caught.”

Even though it was a monster with clipped wings, it was not easy to kill an S-class dimensional monster.

However, since there were 10 agents who used high-speed flight skills and had awakened powerful magic techniques, the locust monsters continued to be pushed back.

Paaaaang!

Then, a large group of people flew towards us.

The weakest was the so-called Stella Camari.

“Chief of Staff!”

“······?”

“Hey, give me some Mana-Hwan!”

“Have you already eaten everything?”

“Hurry up. It’s urgent!”

I threw the four mana rings that were in my shirt pocket.

Stella swallowed two of them and flew straight towards the dimensional monster.

Paaaaang!

‘Huh! You’re desperate to gain at least one more experience point.’

Well! I gave you a month’s supply, but it’s been two months since you entered the labyrinth gate, so you’ve probably run out.

The problem is that I don’t have much time left.

Since I had a lot of dependents, I used up my Mana Rings too quickly, so now I had to get the Magic Stones again.

The hunt continued for another 30 minutes.

And the locust monster fell down helplessly.

Iris ran and cut open its stomach with the dimensional sword, taking out a small dimensional core.

When she handed it over to me, I put it in the alchemist’s workshop.

And then I took out a small dimensional core from the Stellara subspace warehouse.

“What? You saved 8 of them?”

“I’ve been hunting hard all this time.”

Lieutenant Stella was in tears.

That meant that he had caught nine S-class dimensional monsters.

And how many Class A dimensional monsters have you caught?

Somehow, everyone’s face seemed to be half-turned.

“But Iris, why are you here? I told you to go to the high elf secret base and come back.”

“There is an obstacle there.”

“what?”

We followed Iris to the island where the elf secret base was said to be located.

***

“It lives around the island, and when we get close, it flies up into the sky and attacks. I tried to catch it a few times, but my skills don’t work when it goes into the water.”

I also saw an S-class underwater dimensional monster wandering around the island.

It looks like a shark, but it has wings?

It was a crazy hybrid.

“And high elves are incompatible with water. They can’t use their power properly.”

“But you built a high elf base on an island in the middle of the sea?”

“It was originally the site of another elf base, but we used it.”

That shark monster was 100 meters long and could jump 900 meters above the water.

I heard that the agents almost died when they got close.

He said that it was difficult to get close to the shark monster because it was so deep and dark that it was hard to see it while hiding in the water, and it was also difficult to approach it because you couldn’t tell how fast the monster shark was or where it would suddenly jump out.

“So when it rises into the air, you have to catch it, but it uses a strange sonic attack, and if you do it wrong, your body will be paralyzed in the air.”

“Sonic attack?”

There is no such thing as easy in this world.

The reason I wanted to enter that elf secret base was because there was a device there that could create spirit bullets or spirit shells.

While it was important to keep the empire in check, now was the time to increase our power.

“Okay, I’ll handle it. Iris, lure him out.”

“I?”

Iris made a dumbfounded expression.

“I told you, we’re not good with water!”

“But you’re the only one who can avoid that guy’s attacks.”

“Ha! Got it.”

And so the operation began.

“Here it comes.”

Saint Veronica cried out.

As Iris approached the island, a giant hybrid shark monster leaped up with its mouth open, intending to devour Iris.

[Use the High-Speed ​​Flight (lv.3) skill.]

[Use the Overlap (lv.3) skill.]

Paaaaang!

I flew past a giant shark monster at high speed.

[Uses the Tunnel Vision (lv.2) skill.]

[Uses the skill Dynamic Vision (lv.3).]

Suddenly everything slowed down, and I slowly took out a dimensional charge grenade from my bosom.

I pressed the button and threw a grenade at the mouth of the thing that was trying to swallow Iris.

That charged grenade contained the breath of an S-class dimensional dragon.
