    bloody clan.

    Why were they cursed?

    Nothing is known about him.

    This is because even the Blood Clan themselves do not know why it is like that.

    It was impossible to know what their beginnings were and why they became like that because there was not even a single record left, let alone history.

    But now.

    Ceylon was able to realize a little bit of the power of the blood clan by clashing with the power of the transcendent before his eyes.

    ‘Were the Blood Clan also transcendents?’

    I don’t know what happened or what I experienced.

    The power inherent in the blood clan contained a piece of the transcendent.

    ‘I understand why you can’t help but be so crazy.’

    A curse thought to be placed on the Blood Clan.

    It wasn’t a curse.

    Even if it was a piece of the transcendent, the power contained in it was too great for a mere human to handle.

    What could be said to be a side effect that arose as a result was what was called a curse to the Blood Clan.

    Ceylon laughed at having just realized this fact, but in truth, it was inevitable.

    Who would think that the power of the transcendent is inherited through blood?

    I think that as a side effect, they will become greedy for blood and slaughter.

    He also wouldn’t have noticed if it weren’t for the clash with the power of the transcendent.

    I was able to know this because I felt and encountered the power of the transcendent with my whole body.

    ‘really… I never thought I would notice it like this… ”

    Silon smiled and saw the strong power of the transcendent.

    The attack clearly worked, but simply passing through couldn’t overcome the power of the Transcendant.

    To make matters worse, his body was completely destroyed due to the recoil of the collision with the power of the transcendental.

    In a situation where no one could lift a finger, Ceylon looked at the world as if destruction was approaching.

    Destruction of everything close to extinction continues.

    It was a cruel scene with no hope, but at the same time, it felt beautiful.

    ‘I wonder if anyone can stop this sight.’

    I wonder if it wouldn’t be possible unless they were the same transcendental person.

    Only one person comes to mind who can stop the current scene.

    In fact, I almost saw it in passing.

    A being that felt perhaps even greater than the presence of the transcendent being seen now.

    I wonder if he could have prevented this situation.

    It wasn’t just a story about finding hope.

    I had a strong feeling that if he was truly that good, there would be hope.

    ‘It’s coming at the right time.’

    They say even tigers will come if you tell them.

    Is it because of that switch?

    I felt a sign approaching this place.

    Ceylon thought as he looked at the man who was still calling out for his master.

    ‘That won’t last long.’

    Ceylon was smiling as he recalled the scene that was about to unfold.

    ***

    Erdi, who was virtually forced to become a dead person, was put in a place where no one would come.

    He sighed at the extremely frustrating place.

    ‘I really want to run away.’

    Since most of my body has recovered, I can go out whenever I want.

    However, the reason he didn’t do that was because he thought Kariel had some kind of intention.

    Although he is quite an arbitrary person, he does not do anything without any reason or basis.

    I don’t like that he said it in a somewhat forceful and informed manner, but it wasn’t even for a day or two and I didn’t even think about it anymore.

    On the one hand, I found myself laughing out loud, wondering whether I should like this or not.

    ‘Am I too dyed?’

    Even though I hate myself for getting used to that rough-and-tumble personality.

    On the one hand, I have contradictory feelings that it seems okay.

    ‘Wow, I don’t want to think about it anymore.’

    Erdi lay down on the bed and rested, intending to just wait until Kariel said it was okay to show up.

    Time goes by like that until my eyes close.

    I felt a presence approaching this place.

    ‘what. Is it already over?’

    As not that much time has passed.

    Just as I was starting to wonder why it couldn’t happen already.

    The figure approaching this place got closer and closer.

    Erdi felt something strange, took his sword, and left the house.

    As I left the house, I saw the owner coming towards me.

    As soon as he saw the owner in sight, his face hardened.

    “Helbert… ”

    As one of the people who assist him.

    It was a being named Helbert.

    Normally, there wouldn’t be any suspicion because he’s a being that doesn’t normally raise suspicions.

    Not now.

    ‘It’s clear that Kariel said that only he knows what’s here.’

    In short, the fact that Helbert was coming here made no sense.

    Of course, it would be different if Kariel had sent it, but such an assumption was also impossible.

    ‘There’s only one person who knows I’m not dead.’

    It was Dieron.

    However, he seems to know that Erdi is not truly dead, and Kariel himself said that he is the only one who knows where this place is, but he is obviously coming?

    There was only one correct answer.

    “It’s you. ‘The assassination was commissioned by a bloody family member.’

    “As expected, Duke Erdi. You noticed it right away.”

    Helbert laughs.

    The more this happened, the more rotten Erdi’s expression became.

    “Wow. Don’t make that kind of face.”

    “Why is it like that? What on earth do you want?”

    Considering Helbert’s usual behavior, it never occurred to me that he would request an assassination.

    This is because Helbert was a typical subject who was loyal to his family.

    Helbert smiled at Erdi’s words.

    “Isn’t this a common reason? Power that others also want. It’s for that.”

    “You? That’s funny. If you truly wanted power, you wouldn’t have asked me to assassinate you. Even if you kill me, there will only be more chaos and the family will be divided.”

    It is possible to kill a duke in order to covet the power of the duke’s position.

    However, considering the current internal situation of the family and the overall circumstances, it is impossible to gain power by killing Erdi now.

    Rather, what if the family is divided and what it has becomes even more divided?

    But he tried to assassinate himself for power?

    No matter how much I looked at it, I couldn’t help but think it was nonsense.

    ‘In the first place, it’s not the look of someone who is greedy for power. rather… ‘

    confusion.

    It wasn’t just about power, fame, money, or women, it was just the kind of look that would incite confusion.

    Helbert chuckled at Erdi’s sharp gaze.

    “This is won. I guess you can’t fool the duke. He is also one of the five dukes that support the empire.”

    “Stop saying unnecessary things. Helbert. The reason I’m leaving you alone now is because of old feelings. If you go back and live quietly like this, I’ll take a look at you at least once.”

    Helbert’s dedication and actions for his family.

    Erdi remembered that.

    Even if he tried to kill himself, he was willing to look at his actions at least once.

    “Would you accept it?”

    Helbert’s mouth trembles at Erdi’s suggestion.

    Soon Helbert could not hold back any longer and burst into laughter.

    As if I heard something interesting.

    Helbert laughed for a long time before finally stopping.

    “This is true. I think the world would be surprised to see this side of the Duke. Showing mercy to the person who tried to assassinate him. It seems that the delicate appearance still remains, both then and now.”

    “Useless words. Just answer whether you will accept it or be hostile towards me.”

    If you accept it, send it to me.

    If you don’t accept it, it’s just a bell.

    A look filled with such meaning was directed towards Helbert.

    Helbert smiled and responded to Erdi’s consistent appearance.

    “Unfortunately, I think I will refuse.”

    As soon as those words are finished, Erdi’s seal disappears.

    As he was once a faithful subject.

    I was planning on sending it all at once.

    Whi profit!

    The sword cuts through the air.

    Erdi’s sword moves forward to cut down the being in front of him in one fell swoop.

    However, his sword was blocked at some point and he could not advance.

    ‘… what?’

    It felt like there was a huge wall blocking me that I couldn’t overcome.

    Even if I applied force, the sword didn’t even try to move forward.

    Erdi steps back for a moment and assesses the situation.

    ‘what?’

    Something swaying in space.

    He was able to sense that it was the identity of what was blocking him.

    “You brought something strange.”

    “It would be foolish to deal with the duke bare-handed.”

    After saying that, Helbert opened his eyes wide as if he remembered something and continued.

    “Oh, and there’s one thing I want to say. I am the main culprit who caused that incident two years ago.”

    In that one word.

    Erdi’s explosive spirit burst out.
