A Narrow-Eyed Nobleman Is Always Misunderstood

Episode 46 – Three people who faced evil spirits

The magic called ‘Barrier’ is so powerful that it is assigned to ‘Beginner’, the lowest level of difficulty to learn among space magic. It was an easy magic.

It was the ‘Barrier’ that was said to be rude to the two magics just by comparing it with ‘Shield’ or ‘Barrier’, which are other spatial magics.

However, this is only a story that only works for mages with ambiguous skills.

To the sorcerers, so-called ‘great wizards’ in the world, this barrier was a much more complicated and difficult magic than the two magics mentioned earlier.

Why?

This was because the barrier magic was not a magic that was used to develop in a relatively short period of time, from a few minutes to a few hours.

One of the magics derived from barrier magic, ‘seal’ magic, is a magic that seals away evil beings for more than a few hundred years, and ‘stasis field’ is a magic that can store important items for a long time. Create an area

In this way, barrier magic works as the very foundation of magic that must maintain its function over a long period of time.

Thus, a wizard with good skills moved the simple barrier magic around according to his will, creating a barrier of a level that ordinary wizards could not even dream of.

Exactly, like these hundreds of layers of barriers deployed in the basement of the Imperial Palace of Bregern.

“Well, what’s inside is definitely!”

“An evil spirit… Strength!”

In the eyes of the saint and the saintess who were dispatched from the Church of Light and Justice, they could see the energy of the evil spirit hovering inside the barrier, unable to go outside.

If it had been a situation where a shield or barrier, a general spatial type of magic, had been deployed, the energy of the evil spirit would have disappeared without a trace.

If Carol, a follower of evil spirits, had known this, he would have regretted hitting the ground.

According to his personality, he would have said, “I’d rather have the corpse dissipate right away when I die!”

If the magic developed in the basement of the imperial palace was ordinary space-type magic such as barriers, barriers, and shields, the energy of evil spirits dwelling in Lordren’s body would have disappeared as Carol had intended.

However, since he was a kind of priest, not a wizard, he was ignorant of spatial magic, and as a result, this happened.

Hundreds of layers of barriers developed over several years by several archmages were so meticulously woven that even a soul could not escape.

Only the emperor of the Bregern Empire was the only person who could unlock this barrier and enter it.

And Antonio, the current emperor of the Bregern Empire, was questioning the words of the saint and the saintess.

“What do you mean? Is it the energy of an evil spirit?”

In his eyes, the energy of the evil spirit that roamed inside the barrier did not show up.

So, he thought that the saint and the saintess were saying things because they saw something wrong.

But after thinking for a moment, Antonio realized that he had misunderstood his words.

The saint and the saintess are not ordinary people, so he thought that he could see things that he couldn’t see.

“The evidence has disappeared, but the energy remains?”

“That barrier, that ominous aura inside the space protected by hundreds of layers of barriers… It must be the energy of an evil spirit.”

“Right. That’s definitely the energy of an evil spirit.”

When the saint and the saintess testified that the energy of the evil spirit was correct, Antonio nodded his head.

“In fact, it contained the body of a prince named Rodren, son of the Arcus family. Since it turned very hideous, I thought it would spread bad rumors if I came across it, so I secretly brought it here and kept it, but it disappeared without a trace like this.”

“However, even though the physical form has disappeared, the power that remains and goes around without being destroyed…….”

“Only evil spirits can do this. Only the power of evil spirits can return to the original owner without extinguishing even if the host disappears.”

There was a reason why the saint and the saintess were convinced that that power was the energy of an evil spirit.

If a strong being shares his power with someone, his power disappears to that extent.

And, when the being that took his power with him dies, the power he shared with him will disappear as it is.

For this reason, beings with strong power did not share their power with others without any cost.

It was because if it wasn’t the price corresponding to the power he shared, the one who gave the power would be the loss.

For that reason, those who wished to borrow power from someone had to prepare an offering corresponding to the power they wished to borrow.

The Goddess of Sacred Light and the Goddess of Justice also knew these laws, so they took measures to ensure that their powers did not disappear through the ceremony of making saints and saints.

If something unsavory happens to the two of them and they die, the power of the goddess that went into them will return to the goddess again.

In other words, as the two goddesses did, the power will disappear forever if the target to whom the power is passed dies unless a separate action is taken.

In that respect, it could be said that evil spirits are far beyond those restrictions.

The saint and the saintess had knowledge from the goddess, and among that knowledge was the energy of the evil spirit.

And, according to that knowledge, the energy of evil spirits does not disappear even when the being to whom it is transmitted dies.

No, rather, the energy of the evil spirit takes away the original power of the person who receives the power.

Then, in addition to the original power possessed by the evil spirit, the power of the being that received the power was added.

In other words, the more the evil spirit shared her power, the stronger she herself became.

But fortunately, the evil spirits couldn’t share their power with just anyone.

In order for an evil spirit to share its power, it had to be a being that satisfied complex conditions, and it had to want the target to receive the power.

The conditions were very complex, so even if they wanted to share the power from the evil god, those who did not meet the conditions could never share the power.

Lord Ren was able to share the power of the evil god because he was the target that satisfied that condition.

Carl’s research was also to alleviate this complicated condition somehow.

From noble mtl dot com.

In fact, the crystal that Carol’s subordinate handed over to Rodren was the product of that research.

Thus, the saint and the saintess needed the crystal Rodren had taken rather than the body of Lordren, but none of the people gathered here knew this fact.

At that time, the energy of the evil spirit that roamed the inside of the barrier began to take shape.

“What is it?”

“The energy of the evil spirit…… It is changing.”

As the energy of the evil spirit began to take shape, Antonio, the saint, and the saintess moved little by little to the entrance to the basement in preparation for an unexpected situation.

The energy of the evil spirit turned into a human head, and soon a gloomy voice began to flow from the head.

[You foolish ones who are blinded by the light and cannot see the truth. How long will you live serving a false existence?]

“What?”

Hearing the evil spirit speak, the saint frowned in one of her eyes.

It was because he thought he was the target of the evil spirit’s energy.

[Ah, how pitiful. Servant of the false one who calls himself a god. No, should I say that they are just puppets?]

“Shut up, you evil one! Do not blaspheme the goddess!”

At the energy of the evil spirit, or rather, the evil spirit’s ridicule, the saint looked at the evil spirit and said in a loud voice.

[This is disastrous. How could a creature dare to call itself a god?]

“You are so shameless. Aren’t you the one who seduces the good and throws them into the abyss of despair?”

[I do not approach those who do not seek me. They just lend me my power because they want it and I get paid for it. I have never broken a contract. Rather, it is the false beings you serve that break the contract.]

At the words that came out of the mouth of the evil spirit, Antonio was taken aback.

“What do you mean?”

[Oh, my God. You are a young soul who wants to get closer to the truth. Do you want to know the truth? I will tell you especially.]

At Antonio’s question, the evil god showed curiosity and responded that he would answer his question.

Antonio opened his mouth and asked the demon to get more information from him.

“Why do you call the two goddesses false beings?”

[A non-god being calls himself a god, so why not call him a false being?]

“That means the goddess is someone’s creation? Like us?”

[You’re smart. Little soul You are right. The two beings who call themselves goddesses are just creatures created by someone.]

At the shocking remarks from the mouth of the evil spirit, not only Antonio, but also the saint and the saintess standing next to him could not say anything.

“Sleep… ….”

[Ah, that’s really unfortunate. It’s time to leave. Are you looking for the truth? Then doubt everything you know. In doubt, the truth will be seen. Ha ha ha ha…….]

Antonio tried to ask something more, but the evil spirit interrupted him.

Then he disappeared without a trace with the words to doubt everything.

The saint and the saintess checked inside the barrier, but the energy of the evil spirit had completely disappeared.

Three people who were completely manipulated by evil spirits had to get out of the underground without any profit.

While coming out of the underground, neither Antonio, nor the saint, nor the saintess opened their mouths.

After such an awkward silence, they were able to get out of the basement of the imperial palace.

Contrary to their mixed feelings, the sky was infinitely blue and clear.
