Chapter 270

Tadak. Tadak.

In a cave with a bonfire.

Sitting face to face with the man, I warmed up and looked around.

An ordinary interior no different from any cave.

But given that there’s a little pile of firewood and some food,

It seemed to be a man’s hiding place.

“Hey, man. Why aren’t you saying anything?”

“That’s a lousy treat.”

At Erpina’s grumbling Raymond took her outside.

“You’re not going?”

It was a horse that asked for Einsia.

“Is there any reason to go?”

“Not really.”

The conversation began with Einsia watching.

The first question was asked by me.

“Is that Grand Duke Hermann?”

“Yeah, who are you? Are you a member of the Principality?”

“I’m the new Grand Duke of the Republic, Park Tae-min.”

“New Grand Duke?”

“Yes.”

“That’s strange, I understand that Princess Tiana and I are the only royal family in Ordel. Judging by her age, she doesn’t seem to be her child. What happened?”

“It’s long to explain.”

“But I still want to hear it.”

“So it’s……

I’ve told him everything that’s happened so far.

He even won the swordsmanship competition to become the Grand Duke.

At first, he said he couldn’t believe it, but when he heard the situation that the princess was in at the time, he seemed to be convinced with a fist shaking his head.

“The men ended up with a job.”

“Now that it’s all removed, Ordel is clearly under Her Majesty’s rule.

It is.”

“You did what I had to do for me. As a citizen of Ordel, I would like to thank you.”

“You don’t have to say that. It was a deal.”

“He’s honest.”

“Well, why did you leave the duchy?”

It was something I was curious about since I entered Ordel.

Why did he go into hiding after abandoning his wealth when he was in the position of a person?

This was something that most of the Ordel family, as well as me, were curious about.

Hermann stared into the air at my question.

It seems like you have a lot on your mind.

After a while of silence, he soon made eye contact with me and opened his mouth.

“Have you ever felt a thirst for power?”

“•••Thirst for power? If that’s the case, I still feel it.”

“That would make it easier to explain… The reason I left the duchy is because I wanted to push the limits of my stagnant power.

I’m ashamed to say it myself, but I was so strong that I had no rival at the time… Elves, orcs, elves, de warp, and all the strong men of all ages met and competed… Then I met a dark elf.”

“Is the Dark Elf Raven?”

“Well, do you know that dark elf?”

“She’s my teacher, my friend.”

“Really? What an amazing connection, to meet his friend here… Anyway, he was very strong,

I’ve already reached the pinnacle, but I’ve been embarrassed a few times. The match of the day was a tie, but I knew he was going easy on me. After that day, I returned to the homeland and trained in training, but my skills didn’t improve at all… At first, I thought this was the limitations of human beings. Is it possible to go above this? The more I trained, the more skeptical I felt… And then at some point I saw it.”

“If that’s the case……?”

“The wall of limits… It’s too big and too hard to break.

There were countless walls blocking my way. After I felt that, I pushed myself harder… I felt like a whole new world would open up if I went over that. But I couldn’t just stick to training, because I’m the duke and I had a lot of work to do. That’s why I ran away. To jump over the wall of limits in front of me, leaving all the responsibilities and work behind… What an irresponsible human being.”

Hermann said that and stared into the air again.

“If I were there, I would have known that King Sun would have…

I’m sure you didn’t get laid off.

“Don’t be so hard on yourself. They’re snakes, so even if he was there, the results wouldn’t have changed.”

“Is it comforting?”

“I’m telling you the truth.”

“I see.”

“So what happened?”

“I’ve been wandering around a lot. If there was any way I could be stronger, I ran everywhere. But that’s not the way it works.

There was no prize anywhere. And then it ended up flowing all the way here. And from then on, I walked the path of training again. If there’s anything different from before, I’ve focused more on internal training than outer training. That’s ten years, nothing I’ve gained in that long period of time… After that, I just gave up, and I didn’t want to go back… No, I couldn’t. I had a conscience, too. Anyway, that’s how I spent years in the mountains again… But it was really weird, and after the day I put it all down, my body started to change… Even though I didn’t do anything, my whole body was nervous.

Cells and senses have become incredibly sensitive… And at some point, I felt the breath of this mountain.”

“Breathing in the mountains?”

“Yeah, I didn’t feel like I was preoccupied with that long training, but this mountain was breathing… But it wasn’t just the mountains that breathed, everything that existed was breathing in its own way… I naturally spent every day in that environment, and over time the color got darker… Then one day, I woke up at dawn, the first time I didn’t go into a cave.

It was in the viewing space.”

“What? What do you mean……

“It was literally a new space. With green vegetation, chirping birds, and warm winds… I thought it was a dream, but everything felt fresh. And there was a huge flower garden, but as I walked through it, I found a huge lake that I couldn’t contain… I threw myself into the lake against my will, and that’s when I started thinking about who I am… What’s really weird is that I didn’t do it because I wanted to.

It was like peeking at something else at the bottom of my consciousness. Anyway, as I was forced to peek at my thoughts, I realized something, and at the same time, what was in my head was erased and I was in a trance… And at some point, I came to my senses and it was here again. As soon as I came to my senses, I could feel that the huge wall of limitations that was blocking me had collapsed… The wall that I wanted to jump over and break was gone like a lie.”

“You’ve experienced something amazing, so have you made any progress?”

“It’s not just progress… The first thing I did after finding consciousness was to leave this cave, and somehow I wanted to see the light… But do you know what the first thing I saw out of here?”

“Well, I don’t know.…

“The atmosphere of Mother Nature, the sky and earth, covered with blue energy, caught my eyes on a completely different background from the one I’ve seen before.” And it took less than an hour to find out that they could be dragged and used.”

Einsia, who’s been silent on Hermann’s explanation, is the first person I’ve ever heard of.

I opened my mouth.

“Man draws the energy of Mother Nature? Man can’t do anything even the Ma people can’t even do?”

“Is that so great?”

“Of course, the energy of Mother Nature is different from the manna that humans often use… The source of power that constitutes this world… In other words, the energy of life.”

“Is it like the power of the beginning?”

“It’s part of it, but even if it’s part of it, its power is equivalent to a dimension.”

“What? That much?”

“That is why it is a power that no one can have. Even a dragon that is very friendly with nature cannot dare touch it.”

“I can’t believe it.

As I listened to Einsia, Hermann felt even more amazing.

In fact, I think he was the main character of this world, not me.

I can’t even admire it for a second.

I asked him.

“Is that true?”

“It’s true to a certain extent. The power of Mother Nature can easily blow a dimension away.

It’s also left… Nature itself is a strength.”

“So now the Grand Duke has the power to blow this dimension away.”

He smiled and shook his head at my question.

“I said I could use the power of Mother Nature, not completely understood…” Now my level is a lick at best. I wouldn’t win if there were two Dragons out there.”

“Well, that’s still great… Don’t you mean you win one-on-one?”

“Maybe it is.”

Hey.

There was a man who could catch the Aiant Dragon one-on-one.

In this case, the strongest creature in the middle was not Dragon but this man in front of me.

I think we can finish it well even if the devil arrives.

What a blessing for humans.

“I think it would be a great help if you could join us in the Horse War.”…

If I could take him with me, it would be a hell of a power.

But I had something to do before him.

The ultimate reason for coming here.

I needed his strength.

It just so happens that he asked me a question.

“But you said you came to see me… Maybe because of the work of the duchy.”

“That’s not it.”

“Well, you didn’t come here to get rid of me who was forgotten.…

“It’s not like that, I… We need the power of the Grand Duke.”

“You need my strength?”

“Yes, I also need that power as a person who craves it.”

“Well, that’s the only reason.”

“In fact, I have to be strong because I have people to protect… We need strong power to protect them… God is the one I have to confront.”

“Front of God? What an interesting man.”

“I’m not kidding.”

“I didn’t say it was a joke, because I was jealous… a poem capable of saying such a thing

The fact that there’s a liver.”

“What?”

“Nothing… All right, I’ll give you my powers.”

“Well, are you sure?”

“I don’t know if you’re feeling it, but I’m actually nearing the end of my life…” It’s the price of overcoming great power with a small human vessel. I really wanted to leave this power somewhere before I died, but I’m glad you found it.”

I tried to say thank you to Hermann, but I felt strange and asked.

All

“Life’s up?”

“Literally… As the Ma woman said earlier, Mother Nature’s power is not something that can be recklessly touched… Even though it is ostensible, the weak human body cannot last long.”

“So you’re saying that’s what happens to me, too.

“Don’t worry about it too much, I’ll put a separate safety device on it. Besides, I won’t let that other ego in your consciousness do that.”

“Another self……?”

“Don’t you know, in your consciousness, there’s a great creature that I wouldn’t dare imagine… It’s now in the form of power, but it’s also yours, so it’ll react naturally in the face of a crisis… I believe that and I’m going to give up my strength. For some reason, I have a good feeling that you can climb beyond my reach.”
