Abandoned Priest at the Hero’s Party

Imperial War

A birthmark is something you start when you want to, but it’s not something you can end when you want to end it. Once you pick up the sword, it’s impossible to go back.

forward, and forward. You just keep moving forward with your life as security. Prince Edmund’s face was already drenched in sweat.

“Do you regret it?”

“The dice have already been cast. Now that you regret it, what are you going to do?”

The prince, very nervous, opened his mouth to answer Archbishop Armata’s question. I’ve already come this far. If the rebellion was to stop here and surrender, it wouldn’t even start. Above all, there was no need to let the temple do that to itself.

“Don’t worry, poor. Perhaps we will win without difficulty.”

Seeing the traces of the imperial protective magic circle completely destroyed, Prince Edmund trembled. I didn’t even think of it. I never imagined that Kyo-guk had such a power.

How the hell did this happen? insider? traitor? If not, is there something in the magic circle’s jinn?

The dragon chimera, the prince who did not know Yanid, was simply astonished by the power of the Hillai religion. I was terrified because I did not know that the power was only a one-time thing.

This, this is unexpected. The rule of law that has been passed down from the generations of the first emperor has been completely destroyed today.

Even if it was a protective magic circle that the first emperor gathered and installed a large number of wizards, in front of the Dragon Chimera, it was nothing but an object that could be torn at any time.

So, even if he ascended to the throne, he would be forever just a puppet of the kingdom. Every time I heard about those who were mobilized by the Kingdom of God, my back was wet with a cold sweat.

“This time we also suffered a lot of bleeding. The paladin and two saints came here in person, and they also brought in Rangwang Kisea from the Eastern Plains.”

“The Master of the Beast Man! Are you talking about Kisea, Langwang, the master of the River of Destruction?”

“You knew. Instead, if you too ascend to the throne, you must use the power of the Empire to help her. Because I am a mercenary who was summoned under such conditions.”

At Archbishop Armata’s words, Edmund was taken aback in his heart. Aside from talking as if the emperor had already come to him, goosebumps arose that he had made such a promise to him without a word.

As he was still only a prince, he began to give out the bill, and it was obvious that he did not have to see what he would do after ascending to the throne. The title of lord of the empire would literally be just a title.

‘Shit.’

But it is spilled water. As long as you are already on the tiger’s back, you have no choice but to run to the end. Outwardly, he replied that he understood it, and continued to listen to the archbishop’s story.

“This side is more certain than mobilizing a large army. The Emperor will probably not survive.”

‘And the forces that follow the emperor.’

Archbishop Armata hid the terrifying story and responded. In fact, Gyoguk was planning to take this opportunity to thoroughly eradicate the members of the Imperial Family.

Is it possible that the three archbishops of the diocese of Grantera did not know that Edmund was obedient on the outside but had a different heart? I just knew something and didn’t mention it.

The new emperor is not very docile, so it was necessary to do so in order not to give them any room to oppose them. It could also be viewed as a form of insurance.

In the battle for the throne so far, in fact, no matter who became the emperor, he did not touch the guards. After all, they are the ones who will become their servants if they take the throne.

However, this battle is not a battle between the imperial family, but a battle between the imperial family and the kingdom, and furthermore, the imperial power and the teaching power. It wasn’t going to happen in such a less bloody way.

“Perhaps an hour will suffice. Trust us.”

Now the emperor would pay the price of negligence, the archbishop dared to be confident. But he himself felt a little early.

Just as the emperor has been ignoring the power of the kingdom, so too has the kingdom disregarded the power of the empire.

Although it is not an adage and common sense that two tigers bite each other, only scars are left, but they see each other as a lynx in their hearts and think that they are not their enemies.

Just as the emperor could not count Yanid, the secret weapon of the Hillai religion, the kingdom also could not count the two Grand Masters, Raiman and Geher. They did not even know that they had recovered their former scars and regained the power of their heyday due to the beacon of the sanctuary.

In addition, another variable made the battlefield more chaotic. Not the first emperor, but the organization left by Master Heron, the Changcheon Knights, grasped the situation.

*****

“The protective magic circle has been broken.”

The blind swordsman, Xerox, tapped the desk with his finger. This blind swordsman, who has the appearance of a weak and slender boy, is, in fact, the new commander of the veiled Changcheon Knights.

That position was not appointed by the emperor, but by the power. Master Xerox’s expression became serious as he heard the story of Natalia, the vice-captain standing next to him. This was not normal.

“Since the temple started to organize work in the system, which is clearly the domain of the imperial family, it seems that he really believed something.”

“But how could that be? It is a protection law circle created by the first emperor, who succeeded the golden bloodline, by gathering powerful wizards from the continent at the time and using the magical power of the dragon vein. I can’t believe it was destroyed in such an instant.”

The vice-captain, Natalia, continued speaking with an expression of impatience that was not her usual. Outwardly, they looked like older sisters and younger brothers, but they are clearly superiors and subordinates. Xerox continued to be silent.

“…This can be happen. The world is so wide, if you’ve tried to find a way out of their power, you can. I was careless and I got it right.”

“The dragon infantry corps stopped sortie before they could even leave. Gargoyle statues have also been turned into decorations. Everyone was linked to the protective magic circle, so when the magic circle is broken, it doesn’t work.”

“It must have been that we were so dependent on the relics left behind by the first emperor. When the relics disappeared, just seeing everyone running around… Whoops.”

Hagi, are we different? It’s just that the dependents are different. Xerox thought so.

Now, the imperial powers seemed blind and deaf. Because all sorts of magical means have been completely destroyed, and destroyed by the Dragon Chimera.

Everything the first emperor left behind did not work properly. An internal error is more frightening than the external one.

In this situation, the powers of the temple attacked, and the imperial palace had no choice but to be ravaged. However, that is so far.

Because what Master Heron left behind has nothing to do with magic.

Even if it was Yanid, he could neither stop nor touch what a swordsman in a completely different field had left. Anyway, all she can stop and break is something magical.

“Seniors. sorry. I guess I’m too lazy to use the relics he left behind.”

In front of the wall where the portraits of the previous knights commanders were hung, the blind man knelt down and repeatedly said he was sorry. Even though they don’t have eyesight, their senses are superior to others. When others see the world through light, this hidden swordsman feels the world through magic.

After giving a full apology like that, he got up and picked up the sword hanging from the side of the wall and kicked it next to his waist. Before the masterless swordsman disappeared, he left behind two swords in this imperial palace.

One of them is the sword that Roka had held before and used by him while he was alive. Xerox also held the sword and felt enlightenment.

However, the sword was not reserved for the imperial family, and it does not respond to anyone with a golden bloodline that begins with a gold dragon.

The first emperor of the empire, Elderin, went to a swordsman without a teacher and protested strongly. He hoped that his descendants would become the rulers of the Millennium Empire to come.

On the other hand, a prosecutor without a teacher advised that such things are useless. He argued to a former close friend that there are days of prosperity and days of ruin, and that it is also the foundation of a new beginning.

However, there was nothing wrong with Elderin’s warning that if the order of the Empire disappeared, there would be unprecedented chaos, so the swordsman without a teacher eventually compromised and left an additional sword.

A sword that exists only to cut down threats, not to give enlightenment to posterity.

But it put conditions. Only three times, descendants will be able to take this sword out.

He thinks that it is enough to get the empire out of crisis three times. If a country cannot overcome without his help until the fourth crisis, it would be better to collapse because it means that they are living by force.

Now is the third and also the last. Xerox took a deep breath and stepped outside. Looking at the crew who were already fully armed and looking at him, he shouted a single word.

“The time has come to fulfill our mission.”

There was no answer, but everyone responded with a heavy nod. Xerox quickly grasped the situation and gave them what they had to do.

“Captain. Are you going to protect your Majesty?”

“Your Majesty already has two Masters by his side, so there is no need to get caught up in the enemy’s momentum to protect him. They will surely think we’ll be gathering next to His Majesty, so I’m going to go ahead with the tactics. We intercept the paladins of the kingdom.”

He wasn’t stupid, but he didn’t get the information. In the past few days, the system has entered a state of strict control, and even the top has noticed the ominous situation and has not stepped into the system.

Even a single rat had to go through strict checkpoints, so there were many cases where information coming from outside could not reach them, and even if they did, they would soon be ignored.

The magic communication that came up through the official reporting system had been cut off by Yanid for a long time, so the information did not flow properly. The present system is blind.

An opponent who must truly draw this sword.

The demonic beasts of the Shinigami contaminating the continent continued to expand even at this moment.
