Episode 254: Before the Storm

Eyes of truth.

It is one of the largest schools on the continent.

And, there was a lot of shouting about a person there.

“Chew to death! “You have to kill him right now!”

“No, that’s okay. “How can you do something so reckless when the power loss is already so great?”

“So you’re saying we’ll just wait and see! Do you know how many mages have died from that bastard!?”

Voices coming and going.

The elders of the Eye of Truth each expressed their opinions and pondered over how to resolve the current situation.

Not just ordinary mages, but two class 7 mages died.

This was fatal damage even in the eyes of truth.

“He killed two 7-class mages and four 6-class mages at once. Do you know what that means?”

“… … .”

“Maybe he could be a class 8 great mage.”

8 classes.

In reality, it is a state called human limitations.

In the Eye of Truth, there is only one being who has reached Class 8.

There is only one school leader at the peak of the Eye of Truth.

If the opponent is really a great mage who has reached class 8, perhaps the head of the school may have to make the move himself.

“So you’re saying we’ll just sit back and watch whether the mages of this school die or not? “What do the other great schools of thought think of the Eye of Truth?”

“… … .”

“More than anything! Doesn’t he say he’s waging war against Belcarte’s noble faction? Do you know what happens if something goes wrong and the dynasty changes or Belkart itself disappears?”

“… … .”

“What I’m saying is that contracts and notarizations become pieces of paper, and dead mages just end up like dogs!”

All the elders around closed their mouths as the elder shouted his words.

As he said, if things continue like this, not only will it become a laughing stock, but it may also result in the loss of important military power and no benefit whatsoever.

At a time when everyone was contemplating what choice to make, the head of the school, an 8th class great mage, spoke quietly.

“I heard that a new proposal has come from Belcarte’s noble faction.”

“yes. Head of school. “If the Eye of Truth participates in this war, all magic materials from Belkart will be exclusively provided to the Eye of Truth, and all areas of the magic industry, including artifacts and magic engravings, will enter into an exclusive contract with the Eye of Truth.”

“also?”

“It is said that some territory belongs to the Eye of Truth and that it has extraterritorial jurisdiction and is not involved in any unethical experiments.”

Quite an attractive offer.

Wizards are rational beings.

It is not simply about avenging the dead.

Rather, the views of those around you and the school’s position are more important.

If you make a mistake, there may be a prejudice that all mages belonging to the Eye of Truth are of a low level.

‘That can’t be possible.’

If there is a battle for revenge, the only time is now.

He is recklessly trying to start a war with a country.

Belcarte’s aristocratic faction is a huge force, accounting for 70% of the population, excluding the centrist faction.

I don’t know what kind of confidence it is, but it can be easily sorted out if the Eye of Truth joins in.

This time, it will not be a simple surprise attack, but you will fight him under the protection of a large army.

The head of the school let out a small sigh and quietly opened his mouth.

“Let’s participate in the war.”

“Ha, school leader! But… … .”

“No matter what variables arise, even he won’t be able to stop it this time.”

“… … .”

“There is a large force from the entire noble faction, and this time the elders and I will move directly.”

“… … !”

Everyone was startled by the school leader’s words and their eyes widened.

Certainly, if the head of the school and the elders move directly, there are no variables.

No matter how many undead there are, they are still skeletons.

It is not a war against power, but a war between individuals and large powers.

Moreover, if all the core forces of the Eye of Truth participate, there is no way they will lose, right?

Among the elders who nodded slowly, the head of the school looked into the distance with cool eyes shining.

“You will have to pay the price for daring to touch the eyes of truth.”

* * *

A group of people walking slowly.

The man with long, wavy black hair glanced at the buildings and people around him.

“Nothing has changed.”

Two apocalypses.

As a result, the style of the building changed quite a bit.

However, humans have not changed in the past or present.

“Etelius. “Why are you suddenly so emotional?”

“It’s been a while since I went out.”

Etelius let out a chuckle.

It’s been 300 years since the second apocalypse.

How long has it been since humans have already prospered and multiplied so much?

They created such an environment in the first place, but wasn’t they truly breeding like cockroaches?

‘That’s what humans are like.’

Something that needs to be cleaned.

Did you say it has a self-cleaning effect?

Anyway, humans kill and clean up among themselves.

Even if tens or hundreds of millions of people are massacred in a near-apocalyptic massacre, within a few hundred years they will be infested again like cockroaches.

If they’re going to have to clean up anyway, shouldn’t they be used for something more beneficial?

“By the way, what happened to the wall?”

“The pillars were sent. “It won’t take long for it to be ready.”

Etelius slightly raised the corner of his mouth at the man’s words.

“It seems like I am also very impatient.”

We already know that there is a war going on with the entire noble faction.

Even what actions were taken to achieve that.

Well, it must have been quite embarrassing.

If we were to remember things from a thousand years ago, we would not be able to understand the current situation.

However, the guy who suddenly appeared was a level 8 guy and there were a lot of them, so I couldn’t help but get upset.

‘You’ve changed.’

Small change.

He is chasing a cause.

Has the spirit become weak as the soul resides in the young body?

Or are the walls and denominations burdensome?

This is a method that I would not prefer.

Instead of the military dealing with the military, shouldn’t they just kill them all?

The growth rate would be much faster that way.

“Right. “Are you tired?”

Now it’s a blurry memory.

Etelius recalled a memory from a thousand years ago.

A time when war was waged against the entire continent, and there was never a day when blood ran dry on the body.

‘It was like that back then.’

I was tired and bothered.

If he sensed the power gap, he would fall flat on his own.

I was sick of these guys who were endlessly annoying me no matter how many times I killed them.

Maybe that’s why there was a change of heart.

Because I don’t want to repeat the same troublesome things as my previous life.

“I’m excited. “It’s been a while since I felt this emotion.”

Etelius looked into the distance.

I looked at Count Agnes not far away.

A reunion after a thousand years with the other self I had been searching for so long.

I was curious about what he would say and how he would react.

“Kiya~ It’s Etelius from a thousand years ago. “Is this precious?”

“Interesting. A reunion after a thousand years… … .”

The warriors from a thousand years ago who were walking next to Etelius laughed with excitement.

We will soon be able to reunite for the first time in a thousand years.

* * *

The air of death flew like a storm.

Because there are so many dark series, it took quite a long time.

Yukiel looked at the Dark Knight and Dark Mage, who were emitting eerie energy with a happy expression.

This time too, Merniar’s power came into play, scattering cryogenic cold and frost.

“That’s great.”

Hundreds of Dark Knights and Dark Mages.

Yukiel smiled happily as he looked at that strong energy.

In the Dark Knight, the leaders were entrusted to Count Gaston and Biris, who had high status.

And of course, the Dark Mage entrusted the leadership to the two mages of the Silver Magic Tower.

Certainly, since the Dark Knight was a high-level undead, it was on a different level from the Dullahan.

Regardless of whether or not he can simply use martial arts, he can also use any skill he has, and can be seen as a lower-level compatible being of the ‘Death Knight’, which can be seen as the flower of the undead.

In fact, an undead that cannot even be compared to a Dullahan.

‘I’m looking forward to it.’

These guys will also go through evolution due to this war.

How strong will the Dark Knight become if he evolves?

Dullahan and Sadeer are at that level, but will they become significantly stronger when they reach the level of the Dark Knight?

Yukiel looked at the hundreds of dark knights and dark mages with an interesting thought.

“First of all, we decided to arm ourselves slowly… … .”

Is it because I combined a crystal dragon with a corpse?

Not only physical defense but also magical defense is beyond imagination.

Is this the body of a monster that has reached the level of a destroyer?

Yukiel came out of the underground laboratory with a chuckle, opened the cool window, and felt the cool breeze.

“It would be great if the Marquis of Arha brought in foreign powers.”

Then there is no need to drag it on.

All you have to do is just push with overwhelming force.

Anyway, when one kingdom moves, the other kingdom moves naturally.

‘At least 1.5 million people must have gathered by now.’

That’s not the end.

Reorganizing and assembling an army always takes time.

This is because it is not just about the speed of moving troops, but also about uniting troops with different command systems and establishing a system of who will command those troops.

Moreover, the larger the number of troops, the more problematic it becomes.

‘It must be quite a pain.’

Huge amount of supply.

If you withdraw troops stationed at the border, you must take care of all their food.

There is no way that such a huge amount of food could be easily obtained out of nowhere in a situation where one is not prepared.

Perhaps, with the harvest season approaching soon, all the noble faction’s estates could have been emptied of their storehouses and collected every single grain of wheat.

At the same time, they may be purchasing large quantities of food at high prices through trade with neighboring countries.

Perhaps in the process, the Marquis of Arha may be conducting some kind of negotiation with a neighboring country.

Separate some territory and hand over some interests to the enemy.

“Well, that’s your situation.”

Yukiel chuckled and shrugged his shoulders.

Anyway, unlike those guys, I don’t have to worry about supply.

At least the large-scale purchase of food was for the benefit of the people and there was no other reason.

As I was breathing the cool, cold wind and looking at the dark night sky, the bedroom door opened and Eina entered.

“Master, I finished it as you asked.”

“hmm? ah! Has it already happened like that?”

“yes. “The theme park festival will be held starting tomorrow, and all temporary stores are in place.”

A theme park that I had been looking forward to.

If you look at the reactions of the people in the territory, you will be able to predict what the overall reaction will be.

Although priorities have changed due to Etelos, the theme park remains one of the important core elements of the territory.

All you have to do is enter the level of the 9th class through this war.

At that time, you can take some time to develop your territory again and create your own paradise.

“How is the atmosphere in the estate?”

“It’s gotten a lot better, but there are still signs of anxiety. Since the opponent is the opponent… … .”

“Well, I see.”

Yukiel shrugged his shoulders and looked at the moonlight.

To even understand the feelings of those who are merely weak points.

It was an action I would never have thought of in my past life.

Perhaps the sharpness of my past life has become dulled a little.

‘what… … . It doesn’t matter though.’

It’s very fun.

It’s just an annoying weakness, but it’s not a bad thing to be cheered and praised.

Does it make you feel a little unfamiliar?

It was a funny thing, but I think it was a much more interesting life than my previous life.

“It’s a festival. “Let’s have fun.”

Yukiel looked into the distance and smiled.

Without even knowing who was coming there.
