Chapter 130.
As the last passageway, the road winds its way through many twists and turns.
During the delay, something tries to “telemagic” in the middle, but fails because we don’t know if it’s too complicated and we’re going the right way. We continued to move our feet quickly.
He said, “At this rate, we’ll reach the territory of the State of Aquinas.”
“Amazing guys.” The Crown Prince muttered a face in the middle. There was empathy. The meticulousness of the guys who dug such deep and intricate holes on the island is creepy.
I thought he was just an extra.
Until the night before the hunting convention, I laughed at these guys.
”Even the name of this kingdom feels out of place because there’s a system to easily subdue the enemy.”
But if you think about it, it definitely can’t be considered empty. They broke through the tight scrutiny and defense and sneaked into the depths of the palace with their magic.
Not knowing how far their clutches had gone made it terrifying once again. Meanwhile…
It was impossible to shake off the dissonance of feeling as if only the storyline resembled the characters in the movie.
The closer you get to that, the unconscious feeling of unease eats away at the body.
Then it said, ‘Before anything happens, one must quickly slip away from this crazy game.’
I looked at the red and purple of the thick purple walking in front of me and relived it again. My goal was to disengage, nothing more.
It was then when once again the direction changed with the twists and turns.
“Ahhhhhh-”
A man’s chilling screams echoed in the distance
The three of us stopped dead in our tracks with a jolt of fear, closing our mouths and walking quickly no matter who went first.
It wasn’t long before we saw the bright child in the distance. Finally the end of the winding passage. The exit was imminent when suddenly Winter, who was walking at the front, spun around behind him.
“I will use the Transparency Magic here.”
He quickly pulled his cane out of his pocket and waved it at us.
White powder fell from the sky and sprinkled over Callisto’s and my heads.
“I don’t know what to watch out for after using magic.”
“If you don’t talk out loud, the noise will ease. But don’t show the magic. Overlapping is transparent.”
“Is that sneaking over to kill them by force?”
The crown prince asked such a question. Anything was answered calmly.
“I don’t know how many enemies are inside, so please try to exercise restraint until you determine the children’s location…”
The crown prince seemed to understand and nodded without sincerity.
“Stay back! Quickly, come closer. Ahhhhh.”
A solemn scream rang out from closer than a moment ago. We locked eyes and ran straight for the exit.
Out of the dark and dreary hole, oppressively, a huge space appeared. Exquisite walls and columns of white plaster and marble. It was completely different from the dark hole that he had passed through before.
“Building the base into a place like this.” The Crown Prince scanned the surroundings and smiled grimly.
“Ahhhhh!”
At that instant, several people were heard shouting loudly, their gazes snapping over to that side
At the very end of the space, there was a huge statue and altar, as if it was a shrine. The thinly built man in white robes and a white mask stood on top.
Below that, dozens of people in black robes clung to the sides of the body
“Please be sure to eat the rest of the food.”
Vocalizing in front of those who were no longer there to the altar.
“I realize that you have not yet fully recovered your memories, so you stand low. But for the greater good, you must gather strength.”
‘Eat?’
I cocked my head. Because there was hardly any food on the altar. But it wasn’t long before people realized that the ‘food’ they were talking about wasn’t food.
The two black-clad men hanging sideways suddenly jumped up. Moreover, they jumped out from the back next to the altar.
“Ah, ah! Aah!”
Bam bam bam- ! Pulled away with a rough and harsh sound of chains was a young and robust man. A man whose face was grim with fear, as if hiding something.
They roughly beat the man to the bottom of the altar in one breath.
“Ah.” The man’s echoed miserably, but to no avail. The people came down from the altar in slow motion, the only one in black protruding from the center, a woman in white.
I kept my eyes peeled to see what the person in white did. The little one hesitated for a moment in fear before the man who swung around, and immediately went white
“Ha, don’t! Don’t.”
A scream similar to the one I heard when I first got there. Surprisingly, the woman strokes his face and the man suddenly stops talking.
All I could see on my side of the room was the back of the man, not knowing what had been done. As the man fell silent, Winter saw the white rope slowly lower his head. He wore the mask under his nose seen from the front. Unlike the slightly hesitant movements before, red lips curved seductively.
“….?” The woman with her head bowed slowly kissed the man.
The hell… Why? Why the sudden kiss?
I really couldn’t figure out what the hell I was doing and glanced at the crown prince. Like me, they didn’t know what was happening and acted confused.
The situation was reversed a few seconds later.
The man who was completely accepting the woman’s kiss suddenly let out a painful moan and his body was convulsed. The behavior gradually became more intense. However, even the man who grabbed him did not steal the woman who kissed him.
I watched that scene in amazement. But in that instant, something incredible happened. The young man was getting older …… like a deflated balloon, deflating all at once.
Ha…When a woman finally opened her mouth to gasp for air, there was a bloody body with bones in front of her.
Only one piece of clothing fluttered.
Two black ropes in quick succession made their way to the man, no, already dead.
Eh! As soon as it touched the ground, the dried up body turned into powder and scattered in all directions.
Whew, I took a deep breath at what I couldn’t stop.
“Shit, what was that.”
The Crown Prince cursed thickly. Callisto, who showed a panicked expression in the face of the creepy scene, seemed to be like me.
“Bring them in,” Before I could figure out what was going on, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse.
The man who had been standing in front of me, encouraging the eating of the “food”, stood up and suddenly gave the order. The position appeared to be higher. Then the others, who had not been there, rose up in a swarm and disappeared behind the statue.
Some time later, they took six unconscious children and an unidentified ornate box with them. They threw all but one of the children under the altar.
Ah! Recognizing the lion mask, my eyes widened.
“It’s got a lot of magic and it looks useful.”
“Should we properly draw out the rest of the magic power and throw it into the demon’s meal.” The guy lowered his head to the white one and made a terrible sound.
In that instant, the white box came into view.
“Second. With the Wizard:Quest completed!
The system reward gave me [Favor +5%] and [Fame 50] from Winter (Fame: 460)
I checked the completed quest and eagerly asked Callisto.
“What should we do now?”
“There are too many people. Besides, the one in white, it’s not okay to mess with her. Can’t resist any tricks.”
The Crown Prince frowned and stared at the white rope. Contemplating for a moment he opened his mouth.
“Look at that.”
“Huh?”
“I have a chance to catch his eye, you move the children below to safety.”
The Crown Prince, who had finished coming quickly, turned his head again this time.
“Male daughter, you can sneak around and bring that masked lion with you. And, also follow the movement magic to get out of trouble. Hear that?”
Possibly having formulated a plan in such a short period of time, the Crown Prince’s voice was very smooth. His strategy was perfect. The problem was with me.
“Hey, that movement magic doesn’t work, huh?”
“…?”
The Crown Prince looked back at me in confusion.
“You can use magic? But can’t use movement magic?”
“That’s ……”
When I was vague because I couldn’t think of how to explain the sophistry of “perish the way the system told us”.
“Me!”
Suddenly, Winter looked somewhere and let out a dull voice. His eyes were rigid from the slits in his mask.
Both the Prince and I followed his line of sight with great aptitude. Unbeknownst to us, the woman in white back behind the altar opened the lid of the ornate box with a gesture.
Something floated into the air inside the box. Like pieces formed when something breaks, each corner was filled with sharp, fist-sized shards. She arranged them in the air with brisk gestures. The more the shards found their way into place, the more the parts that emitted the round light shone.
“We can’t do this.” What was said in such a hurry.
The Crown Prince asked “What is that?”
“It’s a relic that was used by the ancient Rilla family. To destroy your spirit by pulling the opponent into the most despairing situations.” Winter muttered in confusion.
“Even though I’m still young, I think it was used to touch the spirit of a magician in some way to brainwash them, and it was used for them to use, right?”
I caught his meaning and asked in a hurry. At that time.
Hua Yue- ! Suddenly a blue light erupted from that end of the altar and
“Laturica!” Suddenly, not knowing what was going on, he ran forward, swinging his cane.
“Wen! No, Rain! Go somewhere!”
I called out to him out of panic. …but the sight of the invisible membrane gently sliding down his back.
As the magic was repeated, the transparency was lifted.
“Intruder!”
The sudden appearance of something caused the black-clothed man to fidget.
“Looks like it hasn’t retreated yet! Protect the goddess! Untie these monsters!”
The guy guarding the man in white gave the order and the guy pulled out the black pocket from his pocket
“Next!”
Opening the doorway, the enemy gave a short scream and dozens of lizards and demons immediately crawled out of the pocketbook
“Ah.”
“Damn. Told him not to use magic and he sat down again.”
The Crown Prince expressed his displeasure at the plan to become useless and roughly drew his sword.
“You stay here for a while, male daughter!”
Then hurriedly trailed off into the clearing.
“Your Highness! Rain!
I was left alone, and didn’t have time to answer anything.
