Reincarnated User Manual - Chapter 249



249 – Preparing to hunt

And so Eldrina’s welcoming party came to an end.

Although Glenn, whom she cared about and wanted to take care of, left first due to health reasons, Eldrina never showed any feelings of disappointment or discomfort when dealing with Yuma.

“Hugo has a good wife.”

The next morning. The drunkard who returned to the annex said. Siron came out to meet Yuma, who reeked of alcohol.

Lucia came into the annex before midnight, but Yuma was still captured by Eldrina, and it seemed like they had been drinking all night long.

“Do good people drink alcohol until dawn?”

“Isn’t it okay? Since I’m not human anyway, I don’t get drunk very often. It’s not even strong whiskey, it’s just wine made at the manor. To me, it’s just like water.”

“Then there’s no need to help me?”

“I feel like I’m getting drunk late. My head feels dizzy and my eyes are spinning…”

“Don’t be drunk and come up quietly. I have something to talk about.”

Yuma pretended to stumble and tried to lean against his wide chest, but Shiron ignored the drunkard’s foolish behavior and went up to the room on the second floor.

“You live quite frugally.”

Yuma looked around his head and said. A desk with writing instruments. Curtains and beds that do not let in sunlight. The room that was all of that made her feel fresh.

“This is easy to clean.”

“Do you by any chance clean it yourself?”

“Because I don’t like people coming into the room when I’m not there. More than that, I have something to talk about, so please sit down instead of standing.”

“…All right.”

Yuma sat down on Siron’s bed instead of on the chair nearby. Shiron locked the door and pulled up a chair across from Yuma and sat down.

“It seems like the matriarch has seen the future.”

“…yes?”

Yuma, who was stroking the bed sheets, was startled.

“So suddenly? Last time, the head of the family said that he had lost his power of foresight…”

“I was skeptical because you suddenly seemed blank during the meal, but after talking to you yesterday, I was convinced.”

“…We have been worshiping many Priens for hundreds of years, but this is the first time we have seen something like this.”

Yuma hugged the pillow and sighed. Loss of foresight. Not only that, but the head of the family ran away from home, and other events that had not happened in 500 years occurred one after another, and Yuma’s mind was in turmoil.

“Have you ever asked what the prophecy was about?”

“I tried talking to you, but you didn’t tell me the content of the prophecy.”

“Are you worried about being cheated on?”

“But to say that, you said what you wanted to do.”

Siron recalled last night. Glenn wiped off his sad expression as he was supported, but he was unable to shake off his energy.

“They said they had something to talk about when they met their uncle.”

“…I know this is presumptuous, but may I tell you?”

Siron nodded as if giving permission. Yuma took a deep breath, straightened his back and opened his mouth.

“I think the content of the prophecy is death.”

“Are you saying you want to make peace with your brother before you die?”

“I think that’s probably true. Even though Hugo hates the matriarch now, he took good care of the matriarch when he was young.”

“There’s still quite a bit left until the expedition ends…”

Shiron muttered while looking at the calendar hanging on the wall. It’s been almost a month since Siriel went out.

After Victor reforms the expedition system, the day when Siriel will return is roughly three months later.

It was a short period of time, considering that the previous expedition was about half a year to a year, but I couldn’t just wait because Glenn acted like a person with only a few days left to live.

‘Is there no choice but to go see Hugo now?’

Shiron glanced at the window in the direction of the gymnasium.

‘He doesn’t look like a person on the verge of death.’

There, Glen, who wanted to compete with Lucia, was competing in a slash.

It may seem a little absurd to say that the thing I want to do right before I die is to spar with my daughter, but Siron felt a strange atmosphere between Glenn and Lucia yesterday.

An awkwardness that makes the viewer blush.

Siron did not hear from the person involved what happened between the two, but it was not difficult to know the reason.

“Master, are you really okay?”

“…what.”

“I learned that Lady Lucia, who I always thought was my younger sister, is actually Kylie.”

Before I knew it, Yuma was next to me, looking at the training ground and speaking.

Unfortunately for Lucia, Yuma had reported what had happened at Dawn Castle as soon as he met Siron.

Even though it wasn’t a betrayal by Yuma, whom she trusted, Lucia still had some faith that Yuma would protect her secret.

Why? Kylie and Yuma didn’t have a good relationship, but that was 500 years ago, and doesn’t Yuma have karma for using Kylie’s name without permission?

If people had any conscience, it would have been their duty to protect Lucia’s precious secret, but unfortunately, Yuma was not a person but a devil.

And I have already dedicated my body and soul to Siron.

“To my shame, when I first heard the identity of Lady Lucia, my entire body lost all strength and I collapsed.”

“…Things like that happen, too.”

“But you’ve been calm since yesterday. It’s as if you just found out something insignificant. This is the only way I can feel the inadequacy of my practice.”

“…But that doesn’t change the fact that Lucia is my younger sister.”

Although Shiron felt burdened by Yuma’s gaze, he managed to put an iron plate on his face.

“And I am the hero of the current era. The fact that Lucia is Kylie and was a warrior from 500 years ago is not that important to me.”

“young master…”

“So you don’t have to worry about my heart breaking, Yuma. Because a hero doesn’t sit down before he dies.”

“young master…!”

Hearing Shiron’s wonderful words, Yuma put her hands on her chest with a moved face. Soon, hot tears welled up in her eyes.

“You bulcho Yuma. I will follow you for the rest of my life. No, even if you die, I will remember you until the day I die.”

“…do as you please.”

Shiron sighed and looked at the gymnasium where the match ended. In the clearing where the ground was hollow and the sandstorm was blowing, only Lucia was holding a sword.

The result of the sparring was Lucia’s victory.

‘I’m sure he’s weakened.’

That was the sentiment I had for Glenn. No matter how much Lucia is Kylie’s reincarnation, she still falls short of Glenn in her prime.

Although Glenn was unable to kill an apostle, he was strong enough to repeatedly kill the five apostles alone in the Demonic World.

It’s not easy to deal with just one apostle, but dealing with five by yourself is not an easy task.

No matter how much he had the power of prophecy, Glenn was doing things alone that he didn’t know if he could do or not.

‘Are there 1, 3, 4, and 6 left?’

Siron thought about the whereabouts of the remaining apostles.

‘Now that Glenn has cleared the Demon Lord’s defense, it wouldn’t be surprising if the 1st and 4th Apostles attack at any time.’

The three apostles work around the magic tower in the magic world. It may have been a hasty assurance, but considering his earnest wish, it was not a definite conclusion.

The six apostles are sealed and sowing disaster every year on the Arwen Plateau.

‘But that doesn’t mean we can’t ask the weakened Glenn to take charge of Lord Demon’s defense.’

The Macal Mountains are long and the Makal Range is so wide that it cannot be explored without a prophetic ability as powerful as the old glen.

In the end, there was only one thing Siron had to do.

‘We must face the Apostle at all costs.’

“Yuma.”

“Yes, master.”

“Can the existence of the Dawn Castle stop the Apostle?”

“…I do not know.”

Yuma answered uncertainly.

In the early days of dawn, there were several raids by the apostles and there was friction, but the head of Prien has been dealing with them ever since the fighting power was in place. However, since even they had never destroyed the throne of the apostles, it was natural for Yuma to lose confidence in his answer.

The devil is annihilated, but the apostle is infinitely resurrected by the authority unless the left is erased with the holy sword.

This difference has created an endless cycle. Shiron patted Yuma on the shoulder.

“As long as the head of the family is here, some of the apostles must have crossed over the mountain range.”

“…”

“If the head of the household predicted death, that is.”

Shiron thought as he licked his lips.

“Who are you going to die for?”

“Do you plan to prevent the death of the matriarch?”

“If possible, I’ll try my best.”

“…If the matriarch really foresaw my death, the prophecy cannot be avoided.”

“That’s why I’m asking.”

I wanted to stay by Glenn’s side all day and prevent his death, but Siron and even Glenn didn’t know if he was dying by someone else’s will or if his lifespan was exhausted.

“Could it have been a natural death? Judging by the sudden nosebleeds, it looks like his health is deteriorating.”

“…The matriarch is not even fifty yet. No matter how much she has been struggling all her life, she is not old enough to die…”

Yuma couldn’t finish his sentence. This is because during the conversation that followed, I noticed that Siron’s mind had hardened.

Guard breached.

An apostle who may have already crossed the mountain range.

“no way.”

“Who would dare kill Glenn Frien? I don’t think anyone else could harm the matriarch.”

Siron thought about the sparring that had just taken place in the training hall. Although he missed the knife, Glenn’s inaction was clearly beyond human scope.

“The prophecy has always pointed to an apostle. The head of the family is not someone who will be poisoned by someone.”

Why did he want to see Hugo? Before Glenn dies, Siron will take him to where Hugo is, and Glenn’s wish is to see Hugo.

“An apostle will appear where my uncle is.”

Siron, who had been thinking constantly, prepared to leave.
