Archmage Transcending Through Regression Chapter 131

Episode 131

“…Is this it?”

A castle towering high into the sky.

The emperor mobilized the best engineers in the empire to build it, and the material used for the walls was the hardest skin. The skin of a known monster, the twilight golem.

If you look at the records of the empire at the time, a monster ecology scholar shed tears thinking of the twilight golem that had been ground to build a wall.

In any case, perhaps thanks to so much effort, this imperial wall, < Twilight >, boasts a solidity that does not go even gold with quite a few siege weapons.

And the person in charge of this solid fortress is the Marquis of Ision.

A knight and master of the 6th rank in the Empire.

“Is this the Marquis Command?”

Ryan looked around with a puzzled expression.

Dirty high walls.

However, the inside of the wall smelled a lot more human than I thought.

Perhaps the scenery unfolded was different from what he thought.

“…Is it a place where people live unexpectedly?”

“of course. What were you thinking?”

“No, because it is the border of the Empire. I thought it would be a bit bloody.”

Ryan looked around curiously.

Although it is not the same scenery as the paradise of Gerton I saw just before.

It’s not that bad.

If there is a difference from other territories, the ratio of mercenaries among passers-by on the streets is very high.

the butler was told

“What is normal? At this point, there are almost no major forces to attack the empire’s territory.”

“is that so?”

“It is safe to say that there is no threat from foreign enemies. However, there are so many escaped criminals and hordes of monsters out there.”

In short, for mercenaries, the land beyond the Twilight Wall is no different from a gold vein.

So many mercenaries.

Of course, the majority of the Marquis’ income comes from these mercenaries, so the industry in the territory is also focused on mercenaries.

Just looking at the streets right now, it seems not boring to see the corpses of monsters caught outside being transported.

“It reminds me of the old days.”

“Well, the butler must have been here a little casually, too?”

“It was a period of stormy rage.”

I guess he’s referring to the days when he wandered around randomly with the idea of improving the self-circulation system and somehow regaining Twilight’s honor.

I don’t think I was young enough to be called a gale, but anyway….

“Let’s go to the Marquis first. We have many things to talk about.”

“Is it demon related?”

“Yes and no.”

“…Hmm.”

The butler glanced at me and his expression hardened as if he had suddenly realized.

“Why are you suddenly like this?”

“No, incidents have taken place in quiet places so far. It exploded even where it shouldn’t have happened.”

“yes?”

“But why did you come to such a dangerous place under such circumstances? Isn’t this a sign of a complete crisis?”

Also, the butler is quick to notice.

However, revealing such a true intention is something sewage does. I don’t do such weak things.

“No butler. We can be confident that we are safe this time.”

“Huh Season 3 Safety Declaration…The

butler’s complexion turned blue as if the world had collapsed.

“Damn it. I should have gone straight away from Gerton…!”

“late.”

“Brother, can’t I just go back to my job now?”

“No.”

The butler lowered his head with a sullen expression.

Anyway, it’s a joke.

The butler quietly asked me.

“…Then what are you going to do?”

“test.”

I answered briefly, then raised my gaze and looked at the castle wall.

In the long history of the empire, it has never collapsed. A known symbol of imperial protection….

but.

‘It’s collapsing.’

Yes, it collapsed before returning.

absurdly stupid.

It was a more shocking incident because even the cause could not be analyzed.

“It is necessary to warn the Marquis before it is too late.”

“Hmm, you mean the devil.”

The butler’s eyes softened.

“Certainly, if it’s something like the Great Devil, I don’t think it’s impossible to destroy and capture even this iron fortress.”

“Not quite like that.”

I answered firmly.

“If the great devil is determined and aims, he will surely fall. It doesn’t matter what great materials were used or whether it was designed by a great engineer.”

If one of the remaining Great Demons decides and moves to annihilate the Marquis, it cannot be stopped.

“Of course, coming out like that now would be no different from a suicide charge.”

At that, Lian asked.

“You can break it, but you can’t guarantee your own life in return?”

“That’s it.”

Currently, it is difficult to say that the Great Demons are fully established.

If Asmodeus, who had been the vanguard, had achieved something, there would be a possibility that they would have been more active.

However, he failed to achieve any results and perished in vain. Of course, the remaining guys will have no choice but to be cautious.

“Well, there is a need to be prepared for any unforeseen threats.”

“It is as you say. First of all, we have to meet and talk with the Marquis…”

It was then.

Quaang!

“Aagh!”

While walking down the street, the wall of the store right in front of me was shattered loudly and someone bounced out.

thick dust.

After a while, the dust cleared and I saw a man staggering to his feet.

“Fuck it…. what a dog…”

“I should have been honest with you. Would he have acted like that with information he had no information about?”

A voice came from the store.

But how come your voice is a bit familiar?

Someone came into my mind.

But assuming that things went well, there’s no way that someone would be here at this time….

“Oh wait, that…”

“Hoo.”

The two beside them seemed to have heard the voice and roughly grasped it.

The man who stood up screamed in agony.

“I don’t know who you are, but you must have heard of the name Hi-Lan?! It makes no sense to not know this name in this area!”

“…What is high?”

The voice stopped for a moment.

footsteps are heard

When I came out of the store, I saw her properly.

Golden eyes with jet-black hair.

He was holding a thin sword in one hand.

It was different from the sword I knew of her, but rather, this one seemed more suitable.

“Oh, that garbage group?”

“It’s rubbish?! W You call our mercenary corps like that and you think it will be alright!”

“Oh, I don’t know.”

Waving her hands and responding roughly, she lightly swung her sword into the air.

Then, at that moment, the thin sword bent like a snake and scratched the man’s nose.

Push!

The tip of the man’s nose was slightly cut.

But that alone was enough to make the man panic.

“Hee hee hee?!”

The man took a step backwards, trying to stop the flow of blood from the tip of his nose.

“Let’s see!”

“Yes, yes, please come! If you don’t come, I’ll shave my head.”

The woman, who poured out all sorts of insults at the man who hurriedly ran away, turned her head away with a refreshed expression.

“Oh, you did a good job today…“

Exquisitely, our eyes met just right.

The woman’s face hardened.

“…all?”

silence for a while.

“…Ah, these days, I see vain things. Suddenly, you see things you shouldn’t see.”

A woman grunting and rubbing her eyes.

Of course, it’s not in vain.

First of all, that ‘someone’ I thought was right.

“Could that person be here…”

“Long time no see?”

Her shoulders trembled at my words. She looked at me with slightly narrowed eyes.

“…uh?”

“Hey, seeing my ex-fiancee in a place like this is a coincidence, and there is no other coincidence like this.”

Needless to say more.

The woman’s true identity is Eileen Lindell.

Princess of Lindel and my ex-fiancee.

“…Mi Mi Mi Mikhail?!”

Eileen pointed at me with her mouth quivering.

I looked at her and smiled and said.

“Oh right. Roughly two years?”

* * *

The shop that was smashed was a bar.

In the half-destroyed bar, Eileen looked at me with an expression that couldn’t have been more awkward.

“Hmm.”

“…Why why?”

Breaking out in a cold sweat, she averted her eyes.

‘He’s definitely grown up.’

Milium is a good teacher.

He himself is one of the world’s most talented as a Master, but his ability to teach seems to be excellent as well.

Considering that he desperately sought a disciple to succeed him before returning, he must have been preparing for a long time.

“Does your complexion look good?”

“Are you being sarcastic?”

“No, I mean literally. He must have lived well by eating good things before, so his complexion was nice, but he wasn’t satisfied.”

Aileen looked at me with a frown for a moment, then quickly turned her head away.

“Well, you are right. Rather, I feel more happy and alive now.”

“Because you weren’t the type to be locked up in the first place.”

It was like that even before the return.

“In the first place, your father isn’t the kind of person to stop me from doing anything, right? Regarding arranged marriage…It wasn’t a very good finish, but it was sorted out anyway.”

“Hmm.”

“In addition, there is no reason to send an escort or something like Master Milium to protect me.”

In short, complete freedom.

No matter how much Duke Lindell respects the freedom of his children, in normal cases someone would have been attached for his children’s safety.

A family knight accompanies you.

However, as long as he had the Master as his teacher, even such measures were not necessary.

Of course you should live

Then Eileen asked me.

“by the way…It seems that we haven’t paid off the debt we owed back then.”

“I didn’t write it.”

A debt made a long time ago.

There is a debt the Lindel duke family has been caught hanging on under the bottom.

I haven’t written it yet.

“No, when the hell are you going to use it…“

I have everything in mind.”

“Well, of course you have an idea. It’s also funny to press on from the position that made the mistake.”

Eileen sighed, looked at us, and asked.

“So what are you doing here?”

“Well, as a hero, I came because the Marquis had an business.”

“Ah, warrior…Aileen

stared blankly at me for a while, then smiled.

“Come to think of it, you finally became a hero. I really didn’t know that it would happen. Besides, Prince Lian is with you…”

“It’s good to pamper.”

“What man?!”

Lian said something behind her back, but it didn’t matter.

It’s true that it’s good to pamper, but what?

Anyway.

“Does the fact that you are here mean that Lord Milium is also here?”

“What is it?”

“Sir Milium went to visit his son, so I thought of course he would be on the side of the Condor Mercenary Corps.”

“Oh that…At my words

, Eileen’s face hardened.

I rolled my eyes here and there as if there was no mate to be embarrassed.

“that is…Didn’t Master have a reunion with his son?”

“I did have a reunion. however?”

“Ummm, this…”

Eileen let out a wry smile.

“…There’s no way the long-standing mother-son relationship can be resolved so easily, right?”

“Does that mean that the relationship hasn’t improved yet?”

“I don’t think it would have mattered if it was just that…”

she sighed.

“…Of course, there were some incidents in between. That’s also a bit difficult between Master’s son Kariaman and the Condor mercenaries.”

“hmm?”

Before returning, the Condor Mercenary Corps was ended by Baalzebub.

Of course, only Milium and Caria have never reunited in their lifetime, and I don’t know how the relationship between the two mothers will improve either.

However, since Milium is immature as a parent, I expected that there would be some noise….

‘It looks a bit more twisted than I thought.’

Of course, I wasn’t completely unaware. The ‘medicine’ Kariaman needed was given to Milium in advance.

It was a medicine that would save Caria’s life at least once in an emergency.

I thought it would effectively improve the relationship between mother and son….

‘Is it simply a conflict of opinions between hats? …You can’t miss it It ‘s

dangerous to judge only with this information.

A little more information is needed.

What was Milium’s problem with his son and what is he trying to do here?

“Anyway, then why are you here…”

“Yes.”

Eileen said.
