Season 3: Episode 112
Cheongseong Mirngardia heard of Laminea’s return on June 23, 1676 AD.
It was three months after the war ended.
At that time, Cheongseong was leaning against the World Tree of the Pure White Lake in the northern part of the Idea Peninsula, and was cultivating his spirit and body.
The Black Elf followers tried to stop the erosion of the abyss, but it was of little use.
This was Cheongseong’s fight alone. He had to come up with a countermeasure using his own knowledge and find a way to return to the front lines.
Because the war isn’t over yet.
If Cheongseong connects the World Tree and consciousness, fragments of the future of the continent, peninsula, and archipelago can be glimpsed through the pure white lake.
By piecing together the fragments of that future, Cheongseong was able to deduce the flow of the world and prepare for the abyss’s movements.
That is why there was a popular saying that ‘Cheongseong has 100 eyes, eyes that can see the entire world’, but Cheongseong currently does not have the capacity to take care of even one eye.
“Mir.”
It was one day in June.
Noehyang came to Cheongseong. Noehyang called Mirngadia Mir both publicly and privately.
It was a nickname he had received in his childhood, a time that was now out of reach. Cheongseong liked the nickname as much as he liked those childhood days.
“Your Majesty the Brain.”
“You are here.”
When all the attendants who paid homage to Noehyang were rejected, Noehyang took off his hat and opened his mouth.
“I’m protecting Laminea and Aydin. I hid them in the village of Asran at the end of the earth. I put up a barrier of cognitive impairment so that others wouldn’t recognize them.”
「… … ?」
“I’d like to arrange for Laminea and Camilla to meet, but I’m having trouble persuading the Cardinals. Mir, can you help me?”
Alive… … was… …?
This information that Noehyang brought was so shocking that it took the breath away of Cheongseong, who rarely showed his expression.
“Laminea is carrying a child. In her womb… … is Aydin’s child.”
Those two… … .
I was alive… … .
Cheongseong sat there blankly, unable to say anything. The lake was calm in the evening.
‘Laminea is currently being touted as a hero of humanity… … .’
Since the operation to seal Lucas could not be announced to the world, it was natural that the other Payqueriers’ specialties would be reduced and Laminea’s specialties would be expanded and highlighted.
Now, the achievements that Laminea had built up throughout her life and completed with her death will be passed on to her disciple Camilla as an expectation.
The press was focused on Camilla. Even the slightest change in Camilla’s attitude would not be missed by the world, and the College of Cardinals would know about it.
There was no way for those two to meet alive.
If there was a way, it would be only through the orders of Gwangryong Haraderiman that could immediately dispel the concerns of the College of Cardinals, but Gwangryong’s condition worsened during the ‘Black Summer’ and he has been in a coma for two years.
Cheongseong put both hands together and prayed.
First, he thanked God for allowing him to receive this good news through the providence of creation, and asked Yong-Hyeon, who was watching over him together with the parents of creation in paradise in heaven.
‘Father, what should I do?’
I prayed for the life of Lamine, who fought to protect this land from the waves of the demon world that insisted on the law of the jungle through violence.
‘I thought he had finished his journey by dying, but now I hear he’s alive… What should I do with him?’
I hated myself for crying and rejoicing when I heard that Setsunen had given the child peace, even though I had sent everyone else to their deaths.
‘How on earth could a child… … be conceived when it is physiologically impossible due to the physical modifications of the Payquerier… … The conception defies even common sense. Was it the will of the Creator? Was the conception part of the Creator’s will?’
Epilogue of the prequel, I, Become a warrior like you (4)
Cheongseong created a clone that day and sent it to the Vatican.
If you fly at full power in the shape of a dragon from the northern part of the Idea Peninsula, it takes three hours to reach the Vatican’s Blade Peninsula.
Although it was thought that it would be impossible to meet with Gwangryong because his condition was extremely critical, the cardinals were debating in the Vatican Palace.
“We must bring Lamineia back to the Vatican. Lamineia is the center of humanity. We must concentrate the power of humanity.”
Cardinal Hargon said.
Inrahit, the senior cardinal and the most cool-headed, shook his head.
“If we bring him, we will have to kill him to establish military discipline, so we must bring him in secret. As the center of humanity, that child’s life is completed with death.”
“What does that mean?”
“That child is the only one who has directly broken the rules of the Payquerier so far. If he must be beheaded, it should be done by Gwangryong himself, establishing the code of courage.”
Yoshhar confronted that claim head on.
“Laminea devoted her entire life to the path of courage, and now that she has barely returned alive, is it really necessary for her final moments of looking upon death to be spent like that? She fought all her life for us, who cannot leave this place because she is supporting Gwangryong.”
“Yoshar, your words are not beautiful. No one has forced that life on her. Laminea swore with her own mouth that she would live that way. Wouldn’t Niven and Mozna miss the embrace of their blood relatives? Wouldn’t they yearn for a family? However, unlike Laminea, those children did not abandon the path of courage.”
“Your words are truly cruel. They stray from the path of love preached by the Mother of Creation.”
“What’s important to a warrior is not love, but the courage to put everything aside and follow the path of light.”
Yoshhar felt it was impossible to counter Inrahit’s words.
Inracht’s words were correct.
There was nothing to break the established theory. The established theory was the established theory because its claims and grounds were perfect. Yoshar knew he had to appeal to emotions.
“Your Majesty the King, please do not forget the merits of Laminea, who sacrificed her life to make spring flowers bloom in this land.”
Yoshuhar repeatedly hit his forehead against the place where the unconscious dragon’s head was lying and cried and pleaded.
The College of Cardinals hesitated.
Inrahitman tried to stop Yoshuhar, saying that it was an act that disturbed the will of the Gwangryong, but Cheongseong’s clone stood next to Yoshuhar and stopped him.
“Please erase all my karma… … from the Book of Life of Light… … and allow the child to meet the disciple… … .”
Cheongseong’s voice was calm like the ripples on a lake, but spread widely.
Inrahit could remember the voice of the old water dragon, Yeriserika, in Cheongseong’s voice.
Jeriserika, the eldest daughter of the three dragons, often visited the Pope’s palace when she was in good health to discuss worldly affairs and worry about them with Gwangryong.
Before was established, the fire dragon Bel’Dakidun was also present.
Although Gwangryong seemed to be exhausted by the endless sins of mankind, he would show a childlike joy whenever he met Suryong and Hwaryong.
As a clone of Gwangryong, it was a pleasure to watch the scene.
“The abyss still clings deep to the soul of mankind.”
gave the world the baptism of creation and freed it from the abyss, but the temptation of Yotos to run towards sin still remained in the souls of mankind.
The Kwangryong and Cardinal College were a religion that preached the teachings of light, and they aimed to strictly discipline the mind but also guide it in detail.
However, mankind has always wanted to escape that control, and as civilization and technology developed, atheism also became rampant.
In that situation, Lamine… … .
If news spreads throughout the land that a hero of humanity has directly violated the mission of light… … .
Who can afford to see this world fall apart as a result? … … .
Inrahit also remembered Laminea. Although he did not show feelings of favoritism like Yoshar, she was an unforgettable child.
He was a child like light.
He was a child who always smiled like a child, but had the weight of an adult. He was a child who had the light of the old Yong-Hyeon in his eyes.
Even when dealing with cardinals, whom most people find difficult to respect, the child was not shy.
When he first came to the Vatican, holding Nohyang’s hand, and greeted the cardinals with a bright smile and a belly button bow, he seemed like a child who had come out for a picnic.
From the laughter of a child… … .
They say the light of creation is revealed… … .
It’s true, it was true… … .
Her biological father followed in Yong-Hyeon’s footsteps and lived his life commanding soldiers on the front lines. Did his daughter, Laminea, follow in her father’s footsteps?
Inrahit hesitated for a long time, lamenting the behavior of this world, which could only be maintained if it was strict and the laws were kept.
It was Cheongseong who ended that hesitation.
Although Cheongseong was of a lower formal rank, he inherited the Yeouiju of Suryong and thus held the status of Suryong.
Those words were the words of the dragon.
“I will withdraw the idea of beheading that child. However, I cannot allow her to meet that disciple. That disciple, Camilla, has the stature of a warrior. Without any wavering in that stature, she must inherit her master’s sword.”
Cheongseong was disappointed that he could not achieve his goal, but he bowed and withdrew for the time being.
‘For now… … .’
Although he was not permitted to meet the two men, it was a great step forward for him to cooperate with Yoshar and obtain the College of Cardinals’ approval for his retreat to Lamine.
‘Time will permit.’
Now that ‘Black Summer’ is over, we will soon see improvement in Gwangryong’s condition.
I decided that I would ask for a private meeting when Gwangryong woke up.
After listing his life and what he had accomplished, he decided to connect all of those rewards to the reunion of Laminea and Camilla.
His own faults are also great.
Because the merit is not small.
Even Gwangryong would not reject that teaching.
Since both Inrahit’s and Yoshuhar’s personalities came from the light dragon, Yoshuhar’s heart will allow it.
If it wasn’t possible with just your own strength, there was also the option of coming with Akira of the Red Flame and Setsunen of the Brain Fragrance.
Gwangryong also cherished them both greatly.
Akiraea held all the Yeouiju of the Red True Dragon, the True Dragon of Fire, and the reason was that Setsunen of the Brain Fragrance was the child that Karenden had chosen.
Cheongseong was more delighted than anyone else by Gwangryong’s boundless affection for his sisters.
“Then I… … will step aside for a while to recuperate… … .”
As he scattered his clone into pure white and blue particles of light, Cheongseong thought of the flower petals fluttering in the wind on a distant spring day at his hometown Bellewin Manor.
– Do you want to change the bloody smell of this world into the fragrance of flowers?
Lamine’s first birthday party was held in a flower garden swelled with the light and breath of creation.
All was the beauty of creation, but the most beautiful thing was Lamine’s smile itself, pulsating with new life.
Laminea did not hold a sword, a bible, or a magic book, but rather, she was curious about a flower far away and held it. The name of that flower was the bellflower.
– Then I will give you the name Laminea. It is a dragon word meaning flower fragrance. All dragons live a life worthy of their name. You should be like that too.
Did you understand what I said? Laminea lived a life just like the name Cheongseong gave her.
As a flower of light that bloomed in a world devastated by bloodshed and hostility, it brought peace to this land with its rays of light and fragrance.
After two thousand years, he completed his mission as a shameless stepping stone on the countless steps of death and death.
‘Now, stop it, go to a land free from the smell of blood, have children, build a family of faith, and rest in peace… This is the only reward I can give you.’
