Chapter 422
Going through the gate and later mass teleporting to my destination, near the lich’s tomb, I could see a huge foggy field.
We were not rushing into it, but we were grasping the situation.
Quantum Maze is not an unbreakable labyrinth. I don’t know what it would be like for the Imperial Magicians, but most adventurers had no choice but to return after wandering.
I don’t know where the Vampire Council and my helpers will end up.
Without entering the labyrinth, we were waiting around until the wizards finished their analysis.
Saviolin Tanna gave a warning to Harriot and me.
“Once we enter, we will move with you in the middle. Don’t do anything I haven’t instructed you to do, and avoid collision with the enemy as much as possible when entering a combat situation. Anyone will be able to protect you guys.”
“yes.”
“yes.”
Harriet and I both nodded nervously. It was natural for her to be nervous as she didn’t know what was inside her.
I don’t know if there really is a Rossor Dewyn in there. Hopefully, we should be able to capture at least one key member of Cantus Magna.
“We will enter soon after the labyrinth analysis is finished.”
As long as we agreed to be together, Tana seemed to be doing her best.
So even after we arrived, we waited outside for a long time until the wizards analyzed us.
Nothing had happened for a while, but it felt like my blood was drying up.
midnight.
Analysis did not end until the dark white full moon rose.
With the moon rising, Harriet and I just watched the situation.
I wondered if this was what it felt like to not know what to do with my body.
It wasn’t until the full moon began to fade that the magicians responded.
-leader! situation!
One of the wizards analyzing the labyrinth shouted at Tana.
– The fog is clearing!
“what?”
The labyrinth analysis is not over.
An abnormality was detected in the labyrinth area.
It was literally.
From one side of this mountain range, we were watching the vast foggy field, so we could see the vast, if not all, of the labyrinth.
However, the fog was gradually clearing.
As far as I know, that fog is already functioning as a quantum maze by itself.
But the fog is clearing.
That means that the labyrinth is being unlocked.
why?
Did someone break through the labyrinth?
Or did someone disable Quantum Maze altogether?
Time will tell you the answer.
– Deed deed deed deed deed deed!
“ji… … . earthquake?”
The earth is turbulent.
A mountain range area where the fog disappeared in an instant.
I hugged Harriet, whose face was starting to turn white.
-Kurrureurreung!
“An earthquake! Protect each one! Landslides can happen!”
All personnel responded to Tana’s fierce cry.
Trees fall with a roar. The wizards around us unleashed their magic. Harriet and I opened our eyes and watched the ground rise unnaturally in the middle of the labyrinth.
Bulging.
It’s been a while since the earth rises up like a rubber balloon.
– Wow!
A mighty blue flash gushing out from the depths of the earth exploded the earth.
Magical explosions sweeping all directions cover the world.
– Kwakagagagagang!
The powerful barrier spread by the archmages around me and Tana protected us from that mighty shockwave.
* * *
The earth collapsed.
I couldn’t find more words than that.
After the surrounding ground exploded, the whole thing collapsed.
As the nearby ground collapsed, the surroundings became like a huge ant hell.
Fortunately, everyone in this room were archmages, and they were able to safely protect themselves, as well as me and Harriet, from such an explosion.
The labyrinth is gone.
And the ground collapsed.
That means that those who wandered in the labyrinth would also have been shattered by an explosion or buried in silt and died.
How many adventurers must have been searching for treasure in that labyrinth? how many hundred? how many thousands?
I can not know.
However, since there was no archmage to protect them, everyone would have perished.
Landing on the collapsed land, we could see the center of this area where even the fog had blown away.
It was so far away that I couldn’t even see Harriet, and to me it was just a dot.
However, one person is enveloped in an ominous energy.
-bang! Kwareung! Kwakang!
It was clear that it was fighting something.
“Get your powers in order! Enter the field!”
Saviolin Tana shouted as she braced herself.
Whatever the fight is going on over there, Saviolin Tana must subdue that scene. Harriet narrowed her eyes as if using telescopic magic.
“ah… … .”
Harriet pointed to the scene and her lips trembled.
Harriet murmured blankly, as if she had seen something she couldn’t believe even with her own eyes.
“dad… … ?”
“what?”
Harriet grabbed my arm and screamed.
“Oh, Dad! Dad is over there!”
Archduke Saint-Ouane?
Why is the Archduke here?
no way?
It felt like all the blood in my body was cold. Of course, I wasn’t the only one shocked by that statement.
“what are you talking about. The Archduke of Saintoine is over there?”
“yes! I don’t know why or why, but I have a dad!”
Harriet, whose lips were even blue, was trembling.
* * *
-Go oh oh
Acrich, who had completely blew the ground away with a mighty magical explosion, stood tall and glared at the surroundings.
Richie, the original owner of the labyrinth, was caught up in the explosion and disappeared.
The Archduke of Saint-Ouan and the Wizards were safe.
Acrich and head of Cantus Magna, Lucren looked the other way before confirming that Antirianus was safe.
‘Who the hell is that woman?’
Even with this explosion, he did not move his fingertips and just watched the situation with his hair undisturbed.
He was still just watching the situation with a neutral expression.
Who is that being?
enemy or ally
Since it was unknown what kind of existence it was, Lucren had no choice but to be most wary of that unidentified woman in this spot.
And under the moonlight, Lucren sensed that Antirianus’ expression was slightly different.
Golden pupils slit vertically.
Fangs protruded from between pale skin and lips.
What that says is clear.
“You’ve become a vampire, Antirianus.”
“There are many ways to endure time. You became a lich and I just became a vampire.”
Both are legends.
But the situation is bad.
Lucren looks up at the sky.
time is night.
Vampires are creatures of the night.
“Shouldn’t you have arranged your time well, Lucren?”
Golden-eyed Antirianus raises both hands.
– Wood deuddeudeuk!
Seven families of great Lord Vampires.
The head of Toyo, Antirianus.
The earth rises and covers Acrich.
“Well, now is the time to reach the truth of Akasha.”
“what… … ?”
-thud!
The pile of dirt that swallowed Lucren was compressed in an instant and turned into rock and crystallized.
Antirianus smiled as he looked at Lucren, who was instantly imprisoned in a crystal prison.
“ah.”
Luna muttered quietly.
“Is it Saturday…? … .”
The Archduke heard the low voice, but did not understand what it meant.
“Maybe I didn’t come to the right place… … .”
Luna takes a step.
next moment.
The Archduke saw the woman suddenly disappear.
It was just one step, as slow as ever.
But at that very moment, the Grand Duke saw a woman appearing behind the old gentleman.
Whether it was magic or physical ability, the Archduke could not tell. Just by taking one slow step, she caught the old gentleman’s back.
“Who are you?”
The old gentleman opened his mouth with a faint smile without looking back.
“I will ask.”
Luna speaks quietly.
“Where is the Archdemon?”
Antirianus was not taken aback by the sudden question.
“How did you know about that story?”
“It doesn’t matter.”
As the woman took a step, she appeared in front of the old gentleman, not behind him.
A woman with her back to the moonlight asks Antirianus.
“Ardemon, where are you?”
Antirianus smiles at the question that is still being asked with a calm expression.
“haha. I don’t know which one you’re talking about… … .”
The eyes of the old vampire are young.
“If an arm is to be bent inward… … .”
The old gentleman stretches out his hand to the woman.
“How can I say that to a stranger?”
– Poof!
When Antirianus stretched out her hand, Luna, who disappeared like a mirage, reappeared a few steps behind.
“Also, you may be carefree, but it’s not the time for me to be like that.”
– Damn it
There was a crack in the crystal prison behind Luna.
And that wasn’t all.
From afar, Luna could see a group of wizards and knights approaching.
“hmm.”
Literally, there was no time to talk leisurely.
– Jjakeong!
“Antyrianus, the number of trivial repairs has increased.”
Acrich, who destroyed the shattered crystal prison by force, exhaled a breath full of hatred.
A fight between Acrich and Lord Vampire.
And the sword master and the archmage corps approach the scene.
Luna closed her eyes for a moment.
Let her take a step. She disappeared without a trace.
Antirianus puts on a grotesquely distorted smile, not a pretentious smile as before, with Acrichi wheezing in anger in front of his eyes.
“That’s strange, Lucren.”
Antirianus watches the elites of the empire rushing at every moment.
“Why did you come to this place alone?”
– Phat!
One by one, new models appear by Antirianus.
Beings wearing robes.
Support from the Black Order and the Vampire Council has arrived.
“Are you that confident?”
Imperial elites are approaching.
It will be a melee and someone will die.
The goal of the Vampire Council and the Black Order is to subdue Acrich and escape.
And the elites of the empire were supposed to be annihilated.
The Black Order and the Vampire Council.
Cantus Magna.
and Imperial elite soldiers.
The three-way battle was about to begin.
the head of such an empire.
Saviolin Tana arrived at the scene of the confrontation.
“The situation is quite strange.”
She stares at the group of people wearing robes, Acrich, and the Grand Duke of Saint-Ouan and the Wizards behind them.
‘The Grand Duke is irrelevant.’
I don’t know why she is here, but Tana finished her grasp by watching the Archduke of Saint-Ouane lean back with his troops.
A superman beyond a superman.
A knight who deserves to be called the world’s strongest looks down on Acrich with a lofty attitude.
“Well, I guess we just have to kill all the suspicious ones first.”
Saviolin Tana aims the flurry sword Tempesta at the enemies.
It doesn’t matter to her how this happened.
I’ve come to destroy the enemies of the Empire, so I’m just carrying out that mission.
* * *
The elite of the Empire were galloping into the midst of the storm.
The scale of the fight has grown enormous. Antirianus and a significant number of people wearing robes appeared.
It was clear that the members of the Black Order and the clan of Lord Vampires had joined.
The heads of households, including Lucinil, should have intervened in the situation.
The target would be Lothar Dwynn, but in the end, the conflict with the elite of the Empire had already begun. Because the Empire won’t know who is the enemy. I hoped that as many people as possible would not get hurt, but that would be impossible.
someone will die
Harriet and I stayed and watched the scene. It was not a situation where we could intervene.
In the middle of that fight is Harriet’s father, the Archduke of Saint-Ouan.
Harriet trembles and does something in an incomprehensible situation.
Then, the Archduke of Saint-Ouan and his troops, who were far away, started to move towards us to avoid the fight.
While using short-distance spatial movement in succession.
– Dig!
The Archduke of Saintoine and his troops drew closer in an instant, and the Archduke hugged Herriot roughly.
“dad!”
– Wow!
“Daughter, how are you here… … !”
Then he looked at me next to me and widened his eyes.
“Reinhardt, even you?”
I couldn’t help but be startled because the Archduke of Saint-Ouan might be Cantus Magna.
-Kureung! Kurleung!
At the scene of the battle, where Antirianus was supposed to be, a fierce torrent of magical power was infested, and lightning and explosions continued.
Adding to that, Saviolin Tana’s troops were literally in a whirlwind of tremendous battles.
“Why is Dad here? What are you doing here?”
Harriet said that while trembling as she embraced the Archduke.
“Dangerous magics have been discovered and I have come to deal with them. But it seems there are more dangerous beings than I expected.”
I don’t know if the Grand Duke’s words are true or not. But he seemed to have changed his mind once he found Harriet here.
“I must get out of here at once. Let’s talk about it later.”
“Yep… … .”
As if he was going to do whatever he wanted to do after securing Harriet’s safety, the Archduke untied the embrace and looked around.
“Your Highness, the flow of mana is unusual. Ultra-long-range teleportation shields are all over the place.”
One of the archduke’s subordinates reported that.
In the first place, Lothar brought the elite here to capture Dwynn. So while the Imperial Magicians analyzed the labyrinth, they even installed a space movement shielding field in this vast area.
It’s not something that can be done easily by nature, but the Imperial Magicians make the impossible possible.
“Then let’s move with short-range spatial movement. daughter Let the corps follow. Reinhardt won’t be able to use teleportation, so I’ll take him myself.”
It seemed that the Archduke was thinking of sending Harriet first and escorting me personally.
“No, I don’t know what could happen. Let’s go with Harriet. I will follow you.”
The Archduke seemed to be trying to protect me, but I was better off alone in the current situation. In future situations, you may need to contact Ellerith and my forces.
If the Empire succeeds in subduing Dewyn as Lore, there might be a case where they have to steal it or something.
“Are you okay?”
“Yes, go ahead.”
The Archduke agreed to my proposal, probably because he judged that my safety was also a problem, but sending Harriet aside might cause problems.
“Reinhardt… … . be careful… … .”
“Okay, go first.”
-nod
The wizards, including Harriet and the Archduke, began to move away in an instant through short-range space movement.
I have to follow the situation, but I have no intention of doing that yet.
It seems certain that the guy fighting over there is Kantus Magna. At the point of abandoning that fight and coming here, I think that the Archduke may not be one with them.
Then why was the Archduke with such a bastard?
Is the guy making a mess here and there really really is Rosso Dwyn?
What if the Empire doesn’t subdue him and kills him?
The moment I turned around to go up to the high ground to watch the battle.
For some reason, someone was standing on top of the hill where the ground had collapsed.
“… … .”
A woman with a cold expression was looking down at me with her back to the moonlight.
The woman was quietly looking down at me.
I was not at all unfamiliar with her.
When Ellen grows up
It was a woman who looked like her imagination had become reality.
-It’s just
As she took a step, she appeared in front of me as if she had leaped through space.
“!”
-charuk
A small pendant-type necklace that is usually covered with a copper-colored case.
She held my necklace in her hand.
– Jjaeng!
And the case shattered, revealing the red jewel inside.
“The fire of Tuesday… … .”
she looks at me
As soon as I saw the fireworks of Hwayo, I grasped it.
“Where did you get this?”
It was a friendly tone, but there was never any goodwill in it.
“Who, who… … . Who are you?”
With her gaze fixed on me, she put my necklace down from her hand and just stared at me.
“If the answer is difficult, then you should ask differently.”
I didn’t get anything, but I felt the pressure that I couldn’t breathe.
“Where is the Archdemon?”
After saying that, she takes a step back.
– Kwachang!
And a blue magic spear was stuck in the place where she had been until now.
– Phat!
And right away, someone’s new model arrived in front of me.
“Elleris!”
“Back off, low!”
Did Elerith look around without intervening in the fight?
Elerith, who had been observing the situation, intervened when she thought I was in danger.
The dark-haired woman looks at Elerith.
“You’re here. The singer of Tuesday of the Seven Nights… … .”
“… … .”
“Ancient Archdemon.”
At those words, my thoughts seemed to stop.
“And, a boy who is not a vampire, but has a fire flame… … .”
she looks at me
“A boy protected by Archdemon… … .”
I don’t know what this person is talking about.
However, as if the fact that I had the flame of Hwa-Yo itself had already been the basis, it seemed that I had drawn a conclusion.
“You must be the last Archdemon.”
Ellerith and I don’t know who the woman in front of us is, but as soon as she saw us, she immediately knew who we were.
“Who the hell are you.”
Elleris looked at the woman with a hostile expression.
He didn’t even understand what she was saying as she looked at Elerith.
“Luna.”
She takes a few steps back and stares at Elerith.
“Lord of the Sun and Moon, Luna artorius.”
She gently raised her right arm.
At that moment, something unbelievable happened.
“Originally, it is the party’s law not to intervene in the affairs of royalties… … .”
As if the laws of the world had been reversed, the full moon behind her suddenly began to grow in size.
The full moon, which was 10 or 20 times larger than usual, filled the world with cool light.
I didn’t understand a single thing about what was going on.
“I don’t want to lose my child twice.”
She reaches out for the huge moon. Something was heard in her hand, as if swallowed by moonlight.
In her hand was a new moon sword that looked as if the moonlight was holding it in her hand.
What is the ancient Archdemon, and what is the name of the Sun Moon Princess?
I do not know.
But the results are right in front of you.
Ellen’s mother is trying to kill me.
