< Chapter 109 - Breeze #2 >

“It’s here.”
Elune stopped in front of a pond deep within the Orange Gate.
On the surface of the water where the white moon was reflected, several fairies were already riding on leaves and having a boat ride.
“It’s Elune.”
“It’s Elune.”
“Hello, Elune.”
“Hello Elune.”
The Breeze Fairies waved their hands in this direction, their bright faces looking much clearer and more innocent than those of the fairies in other places.
“Yeah, hi.”
Maybe everyone has a similar personality to Elune.
Anyway, Elune greeted them and immediately pointed to Uther and Cordelia.
“This is my friends, Yuder and Kudelia.”
‘Is that really on purpose?’
Cordelia was slightly upset when Elune made another mistake, but she persevered for the time being.
Elune’s face was too pure and innocent to be considered intentional.
‘That’s the kind of kid he is.’
In Heroes Chronicle 2, no matter who you play as, you almost never remember Elune’s name properly and always call her by her name in a mess.
“handsome.”
“Pretty.”
“I want to play together.”
As expected, fairies.
Cordelia smiled at the familiar reaction and pulled on Uther’s sleeve, sending a message magic.
[From here on out, leave it to me. I’ll show you the skills of a skilled assistant.]
It’s already been half a year since the fairies I encountered in the Eternal Forest.
But during that half year, Cordelia’s skills did not rust, but rather her heart became even more gloomy.
Now, it was not a big deal to boil fairies.
[Well, then I will trust you and leave it to you.]
[Yes, just trust me.]
As Uther spoke theatrically, Cordelia answered in kind and approached the fairies with a confident face.
“Hello, girls? My name is Cordelia.”
“Kudelia?”
“You idiot, it’s Cardelia.”
Cordelia almost lost her smile at the fairies’ words, but held back.
Has this happened once or twice?
Cordelia continued, maintaining her best smile.
“I came here because of Elune’s introduction. I would like to have a night out with the Queen. What do you think?”
“Your Majesty?”
“I like playing at night.”
“I think you guys can take them.”
Most of the fairies nodded thoughtlessly, but one of them, a smart one, raised his hand and spoke.
“But how did you get here? This is our and Elune’s secret place.”
“That’s right, that’s right.”
“Elune didn’t keep a secret?”
“Elune broke her promise?”
Their faces were still clear and innocent, but that made them feel even colder.
The fairies who had been chattering amongst themselves all looked back at Elune as if they had made a promise.
“Uh··· That······.”
As Elune began to falter, Cordelia spoke again.
“Elune decided to grant our wish, but our wish was to meet you. We really wanted to meet you, so we acted stubbornly. Can you forgive us? Yes?”
As Cordelia acted a little charming, the fairies nodded again.
“If it’s a wish, there’s nothing I can do.”
“I forgive you.”
“You said you wanted to see us.”
As the fairies shrugged and passed, Cordelia made a quick V sign behind her back.
It was Cordelia who certainly seemed to be well versed in fairies.
But then it happened.
“Oh, but then what happens?”
Elune blinked and looked back at Uther as she continued speaking.
“The winner of the duel hasn’t been decided yet.”
When the sparring was over, I was just so happy and excited that I didn’t think much about it, but now that I think about it, it seems like it didn’t come to a proper conclusion.
“Uh… I think I lost.”
From Uther’s perspective, it was a situation where he only had one wish, whether he won or lost.
But Elune shook her head at Uther’s words.
“No, Yuder didn’t support it.”
“Then it’s my victory······?”
“No, I didn’t support it either.”
Uther frowned at Elune’s words.
But Elune’s words were not entirely wrong. There was literally no proper conclusion.
“Then let’s call it a draw.”
In fact, winning or losing wasn’t really that important.
I’ve already mentioned this before, but isn’t this a situation where you get one wish ticket whether you win or lose?
But this time, Elune’s thoughts seemed different.
“If I win, I get one wish, and if I lose, I get one wish. Then what happens if it’s a draw?”
Obviously, it wasn’t decided on a draw.
Even the great Uder could not give an immediate answer to Elune’s question. However, as the saying goes, “before the eyes of the beholder, before the eyes of the beholder, there was one disciple who was very dark-hearted.”
“If it’s a draw, then it’s like winning and losing together, so wouldn’t it be okay if you granted me two wishes? One wish when I won, and one wish when I lost.”
Cordelia smiled brightly and presented a miraculous calculation method that left Belencia, Melissa, and even Uther dumbfounded, but Elune blinked again and nodded.
“I see?”
If it’s a draw, then you’ve won and lost.
“That’s right, that’s right.”
“That sounds like a true story.”
“You’re smart.”
As the fairies clapped their hands in agreement, Elune nodded more vigorously, and Uther frowned as he thought.
‘Did people become so pure because of the fairies in the first place?’
Now that I look at it, it seems no exaggeration to say that Elune was a large fairy.
‘The Breeze Fairies themselves seem to be particularly clearer and purer than the fairies in other places.’
In any case, it was good news for Uder.
After pinching the cheek of his beloved disciple who shrugged his shoulders as if asking for praise, he spoke to Elune.
“Then, Lady Elune, can we put aside the talk about wishes for now and proceed with our conversation with the fairies?”
“Yeah, okay.”
After saying that, Elune went into the pond and stood among the fairies, looking at Uther and Cordelia.
[Hmm… That kid really looks like a big fairy.]
At Belencia’s words, Uder smiled bitterly again and winked at Cordelia.
‘Can I leave this to you?’
‘Leave it to me.’
Cordelia stepped forward, her chest pounding.
And about twenty minutes later.
“Yes, I will give it to you.”
“Take this too.”
“How about this?”
Uther and Cordelia, who received the wind’s protection from the Breeze Fairy Queen, successively obtained various treasures that the fairies had been keeping.
Most of them were rare and old medicinal herbs, and I thought they would be good to use in raising Lucas and Kaisa.
“Here, here’s some fairy chocolate.”
The fairies were delighted and squealed with joy as they generously shared the chocolates they had brought with them when leaving the kingdom.
Cordelia’s hands were bigger than usual because the Breeze Fairies were so clear and pure.
“Well, okay. I’ll give you a freebie while I’m at it.”
Cordelia, who had originally been trying to get the treasure from the Breeze Fairies – the Magic Kingdom Magellan’s learning device – decided to give the fairies something they would love as much as chocolate.
It’s something I used to really, really hate and had to force myself to do, but now I can do it without any problems.
[You’ve become shameless.]
[Because of Mr. So-and-so. How many times a day do I have to embarrass myself?]
Uther and Cordelia exchanged magical messages while performing on a makeshift stage.
The love of the Fairy Queen and the Archmage.
When Cordelia first started acting under the pressure of Paul Fairey, she had a hard time even reading her Korean textbook, let alone acting, because her hands and feet were curled up, but not anymore.
As someone said, he has become shameless and has become dirty to the core.
Of course, that wasn’t the only reason.
“That’s because I··· love··· you···.”
A line that marks the end of the love story between the Fairy Queen and the Great Wizard.
I couldn’t do this in front of Paul Fairey.
Because I couldn’t even imagine a kissing scene at the time.
No, wasn’t it just a kissing scene? Didn’t the mere fact that Yuder hugged her waist give you goosebumps and make your hair turn white?
[Isn’t this a bit too creepy?]
[Well… Actually, I was a little nervous?]
Cordelia, who smiled wistfully, hugged Uther’s neck, and Uther brought his face closer to Cordelia. He naturally hugged her waist and kissed her lips.
“Whoa.”
The faces of the fairies who had been sitting closely together and watching turned bright red. Elune, who had been quietly watching with the Breeze Fairy Queen sitting on her shoulder, swallowed dry saliva as if she didn’t know what to do.
Enforced silence.
That’s why it’s a situation where even small sounds can be heard loudly.
There was a rustling sound of the hem of the clothes moving.
Uther’s hand, which had been resting on Cordelia’s slender waist, gradually moved upward and gently wrapped her around.
It was the first time. Cordelia flinched because of it, but it was only for a moment. Feeling comfortable in Yuder’s large hands, she also touched Yuder’s back.
My heart started pounding a little differently than usual, and so it started beating even faster.
The fairies and Elune could no longer even breathe properly.
And then one moment.
Uther and Cordelia’s lips moved away.
The long stream of saliva between my breathing stopped.
[Is this the end?]
Uther flinched at Cordelia’s question, but he couldn’t help it. Aren’t there a lot of eyes looking at him?
When Uther showed regret and sorrow with his eyes instead of answering, Cordelia smiled miserably and then raised her crow’s feet and bit Uther’s neck.
[I want to do a little more. I want you to touch me a little more.]
Cordelia’s fingertips lightly tapped Yuder’s solid chest. She gave Yuder a look that was more powerful and alluring than any provocation she had ever done.
Uder’s face turned red.
I was so embarrassed I didn’t know what to do.
He couldn’t display any of his usual slyness.
Uther looked at Cordelia. He reached out to touch her slightly bitten pink lips.
But Cordelia gently pushed away Yuder’s hand and sent a message with a seductive smile.
[Sorry, time’s over.]
That’s it for today’s game.
Cordelia gently pushed Yuder’s chest away, then backed away and turned around coldly.
Jude was truly heartbroken by the sight of her trying to make him feel sorry for her, but in fact, Cordelia was in a difficult situation as well.
‘What, what have I done?’
Mom, mom, touch me?
Just thinking about it again made my mind go blank.
what?
Are you really crazy?
Why did I say that?
But somehow it felt natural.
The smile, the lines, and the emotions of that moment.
As if this had already happened.
‘Haa, haa. Anyway, calm down. Calm down.’
Covering her completely red face with both hands, Cordelia took a deep breath and turned around with the freshest smile she could muster. And then, seeing Uther looking at her with a still dazed and bright red face, she blushed once more. Her heart pounded at the sight of his expression, which seemed somehow distressed.
‘What, something feels good?’
Because it’s none other than Yuder who’s doing that.
Because Yuder was completely out of his mind.
Wouldn’t this be Cordelia’s own complete victory?
‘Yeah, yeah. I won. I won. I won, you mean?’
Cordelia, who had barely managed to calm the confusion in her head with her verbal banquet, coughed in vain and looked back at the fairies who, like Uther, were also absent-minded.
“And the two lived happily ever after.”
As she raised her skirt slightly and showed her respect, the fairies who had been dazed came to their senses one by one.
Uther also awkwardly showed his respect.
[Are you coming to your senses now?]
[Ahem ahem ahem.]
Cordelia laughed again at Uther’s cough.
Certainly, it seemed like Cordelia’s own victory was complete today.
But that was just then.
Cordelia suddenly raised her head.
It was because something new was captured by my extremely sensitive senses.
Something unfamiliar yet familiar.
An aura that can be felt because he is an angel of the Solari lineage – a 5th-grade angel, which can be considered high-ranking.
Cordelia understood instinctively.
The hidden energy was revealed.
The play lifted the spirits of all the fairies, shaking the mana in the surrounding area, causing hidden energy to leak out.
The identity of that energy.
Cordelia seemed to know.
“Fairy Queen, I have a favor to ask.”
“Huh? Yeah. Yes. Anything. I’ll listen to anything.”
The Breeze Fairy Queen, who was sitting on Elune’s shoulder, spoke softly with a flushed face. The other fairies also seemed to want her to just ask for something.
So Cordelia spoke without hesitation.
“There’s one thing I want.”
&
“Today was a total defeat.”
A small underground cave hidden in a corner of the Fairies’ land.
Cordelia shrugged her shoulders and acted proud at Uther’s words.
“Remember today’s defeat.”
“I will never forget. Even what happened earlier.”
“Ugh.”
As expected, Yuder.
Cordelia groaned for a moment at the unexpected counterattack and looked back at the object in front of her.
What was in front of me was a stone slab the size of an A4 sheet of paper.
“The third tablet of Solari.”
If you collect all the stone tablets in the Tomb of the Holy Knights, you will be able to find the location of the tomb of Garius, the champion of the Solari.
Whoever reaches the tomb of Garius will obtain the last secret treasure of the Solari Cult.
‘There are four stone slabs in total.’
Two of them had already been discovered in the Kingdom of Cailun, and the location of the last one was known somewhere in the Empire.
“Okay, okay. Very good.”
Cordelia laughed and took the third slab.
The sarcophagus of the paladin Amelia, the last of the three disciples of Garius, contained several holy relics as before, but perhaps because it was located in the land of the fairies, its condition was much better than the previous two.
“So now all I have to do is find the last stone tablet?”
“Okay, now there’s only one left.”
Four stone slabs.
The Tomb of Garius opens because of this.
The last secret treasure left behind by the Solari Order, hidden there.
It wasn’t Solar Blade.
It wasn’t even the Holy Sword Clausolas.
So what is it?
What will be the final tidings of the Solari Order?
Uder guessed.
Cordelia also seemed to have a general idea.
That’s why there were such deep smiles on both of their faces.
“I have to get it somehow.”
“Right, somehow.”
Perhaps the last secret of the Solari Cult could be the most powerful move in the fight against the demon followers.
“But Cordelia.”
“Oh, it’s Yuder.”
“There are only two?”
[No, I’m here too? There are fairies outside too!]
Melissa’s words were not heard, for Cordelia had already muted them.
“Do you remember what I said earlier?”
Cordelia gasped at Uther’s question, but soon nodded shyly. She bit her lips slightly and gave him a sad look.
How many minutes will it take before Elune asks if he has come out?
Uther and Cordelia didn’t think much of it. Uther’s hand went to Cordelia’s waist.
&
A voice from on high looked down upon the earth.
He praised Maximilian for reaching higher heights through his duel with the Sword God and personally gave him the blood of an angel.
A celestial voice whispered to Princess Daphne.
Archangel Raguel revealed his identity and explained that the Kingdom of Cailun must step forward for the sake of the Empire and the Empress Dowager.
And one person.
A person who had been buried in the wilderness and forgotten about the world has risen up.
He took steps towards an empire in turmoil.
