Although they kidnapped Berian, unfortunately no useful information could be obtained.

Who is the sponsor?

Why are we researching teleportation?

Because you want to engrave your name in history? Maybe it’s simply pure curiosity about magic.

Lucia had no way of knowing what Siron was thinking, but all she could do was make a simple guess.

Interrogation, threats, and even torture… there’s nothing they won’t do to get information in their own way.

Even if you tried to steal information by showing him a mountain of gold coins or casting a mind control spell, your efforts were worthless and Varian responded indifferently like a dead wall.

No, if I had to use an analogy, Varian was not like a wall but like a doll with a scared expression.

Although there was no basis, Lucia had the feeling that Varian was acting like that even though he was not scared at all.

However, even then, it was not like there was no income at all.

It arose from a small question: whether it would be good to teach him teleportation, a research he devoted his entire life to.

-Ugh, why is this guy like this?

-Why are you looking at me? I didn’t do anything?

The moment when I was able to see the teleportation technique performed by Seira. Berian had fainted with his eyes wide open.

For a moment, he was worried that the torture had caused him to become a wreck, but fortunately or not, Varian soon came to his senses.

And then,

When Berian, who had fainted as if a thread had been cut, came to his senses. Something unbelievable happened.

He had no recollection of the entire process from the moment he was kidnapped to the present. Even people who don’t believe in superstitions were so scared and screamed at the time, it was clear that it was something that couldn’t be explained by magic.

That wasn’t the only strange thing.

I don’t know how surprised I was when dozens of figures appeared simultaneously in the middle of the night, probably the day after I kidnapped Trainee Berian.

Lucia, who was shocked, killed all the assailants who had no idea where they had come from.

The regret of having to torture myself did not last long.

Even though it had only been a few days since then, the next attack came.

The second were strange beasts with black flames all over their bodies. Even in broad daylight, they flew by with bright light and a roar like a meteor, so even if I didn’t necessarily want to know, I knew where they came from.

Lucia caught the clue and killed them all.

The third were wizards who constantly fired magic filled with ominous mana.

Lucia, who was waiting at the place where they came out, killed them all.

And the fourth. Lucia cast a cold gaze at the group that had fallen from the sky. I didn’t count the numbers in detail, but it looks like they are at least thirty.

But no matter how many there are, it is not worth worrying about to the girl holding the sword. Lucia, who had vowed to kill them all this time, waved her hand away and raised her sword at an angle.

“Cry, Sirius.”

The white sword swallowed the star sword. It was a shouting of a skill that would have made Siron cringe if he had seen it, but anyway, after a while, all the enemies would die.

Lucia thought she was embarrassed, but on the other hand, she thought it was really cool to shout out the name of the technology.

A creepy smile appeared on Lucia’s lips.

The knights in blue armor drew their swords, feeling an unknown emotion.

Slurp-

The knights did not shout out technical names. Black flames rise up their sword bodies and take the form of a sword river.

However, that is not a sword.

It is a magic that makes the hair on your entire body stand up and your nasal passages become bitter. Lucia was a person who knew what true swordsmanship was, and was a sword master who could completely distinguish between truth and lies.

And, I knew well that no matter where I looked in the world, there was no human being that radiated magical energy. Lucia was relieved that they were not humans and increased the size of her sword.

Cough!

Without anyone saying anything, they jumped at each other. The black flames soon burned not only the sword but the entire armor, and Lucia felt intense heat on her face.

Does not matter. The moment I felt the heat, the armor blocking my nose split in half. Jeok- Red and fishy sewage flew in the air.

‘One guy.’

Lucia raised her head as she felt the thrill of her hand. The opponent was stopped in a position just before jumping in. It’s not that I couldn’t move because I was scared. The more you lose consciousness, the more slowly the enemies move.

In accelerated consciousness. Lucia gave strength as she looked at her next opponent. Mana burns and creates the shape of a flame. A half-moon flame was engraved in the air. A tail of flames is drawn along the trajectory of the sword.

The swung sword passes by as if passing through armor. I can’t even feel the taste of my hands anymore. Sirius, clad in white steel, becomes a sword sharper than anything in the world. It was cut at a speed that the criminal could never perceive, so there was no sound at all like something was being cut, and only a loud explosion hit his ears instead.

Leaving the white trail behind, Lucia kicked the ground again.

The swung sword passes by as if passing through armor.

I swung my sword. kicked the ground

I swung my sword. The swung sword passes by as if passing through armor.

kicked the ground I swung my sword.

The swung sword passes by as if passing through armor. kicked the ground I swung my sword.

The swung sword passes by as if passing through armor.

like that,

During about thirty slashes, the knights had no idea what had happened to them. Those who died without even swinging a sword were torn apart in the footsteps of the sword as if they were being sucked in.

Lucia shook her sword, which had no dirt on it, into the air. It was an act to protect the sword from foreign substances, but Lucia simply thought it was cool, so she turned the sword and looked back at the trajectory she had taken.

A frighteningly wonderful sight unfolded. The sword’s trail traced its tail among over 30 pieces of armor.

The scenery that appears to be still for a moment slowly begins to move. The sword’s trajectory was sucked between the waist belts, and the corpses belatedly fell to the floor.

In the subsequent fall, Lucia was truly intoxicated with her wonderful self. She didn’t know why the sword’s trajectory remained in the air, but she just assumed she was in a trance.

“…I have to bring Seira.”

After the battle, only Siron’s request remained intact in Lucia’s mind.

*

Four days later, the fifth attack came.

A huge bridge emerges from the clouds. Cooo! The golden giant stepped on the ground and the entire ground turned over. The tremors created in the aftermath of the battle shook the entire ground, and its effects even reached distant mansions.

“So, how many more times does something like that come back?”

Eldrina said, staring at the window that was shaking as if it was about to break.

Siron turned his back and answered confidently.

“7 left to go.”

“Really? Then when will it end?”

“The interval between attacks is getting shorter, so it will probably end within 10 days.”

“You know it in strangely detailed terms.”

“It’s all thanks to the power of prophecy.”

“Really?”

Eldrina looked back with a venomous look on her face. It was better to see the obnoxious man who would become my future son-in-law than to see the flower garden that I carefully cultivated be ruined by an earthquake.

“Then, let’s use the prophecy to predict when Siron Prien will become engaged to Siriel.”

“…”

“Of course, I heard that they were getting engaged within the last week. There’s no way our prospective son-in-law is a liar, and it’ll be possible at least in 10 days, right?”

“Uh… That’s it.”

Siron tried to face the venomous gaze directly.

“As you know, Eldrina, there is a special power that has been passed down from generation to generation in our family, but… there is a very evil god? It’s the power of foresight given to stop that bastard… You can’t divine one’s own affairs, right?”

“So?”

“Yes. And with such an ominous danger looming, wouldn’t it be better to at least get this over with? There is something called atmosphere. The perfect atmosphere to propose.”

Siron spoke hastily and took out a very luxurious-looking box from his pocket. Click – the box opened and a beautiful light caught Eldrina’s eyes.

It’s a pass. It’s a worthy gift for my precious daughter. Eldrina chewed her tongue to suppress a satisfied smile.

“…I know you didn’t put it off because you wanted to. I even prepared a ring like this, so if the situation is right like you said, I can propose at any time.”

“Then why are you urging me?”

“The problem is not me, but Siriel.”

Cooo!

Eldrina massaged her eyebrows again, trying to ignore the loud noise coming from behind her.

“You know that kid is busy with the Knights’ work these days, right?”

“I heard that you will be joining your uncle on the next expedition.”

Siron nodded briefly and answered.

I heard from Lucia a while ago that Siriel was spending most of her time, excluding the time she was at the academy, preparing to take over the Order.

The so-called successor class. Siriel was preparing to lead Changcheon in place of Hugo in the future.

“Siriel is not able to fully concentrate on the successor class. Do you know how hard I try to go help you every morning?”

“…is that so?”

Did something like that happen? Siron was completely unaware of this fact as he had been confined to the basement these days.

“I agree with you that we need to bide our time, but Siriel is my daughter. Even though the person she loves is right in front of her, she is not the kind of woman who just sucks her fingers and waits…”

Eldrina massaged her temples again as if her bones were in pain.

“Siriel, it seems like the more you take successor classes, the more you feel the future apart from you.”

“…”

“And, if I inherit the Order, I will end up being away from home for a long time, and often, like my father. Isn’t it natural to worry that other stray cats will steal your food bowl while you’re away?”

“…What can I do? This chaos broke out.”

Siron stroked his chin and looked out the window.

A sword river hundreds of meters long was slaughtering the golden giant.

“Siriel will not care about the time or place if the opponent is you.”

Eldrina also sighed as she saw the same scene.

“Can’t we just get engaged today?”

“Isn’t it a one-time marriage proposal? Isn’t Eldrina keeping her engagement plan a secret from Siriel because she knows him?”

Siron shook his head at Eldrina, who was groaning.

“I don’t think Siriel is an immature child who can’t wait even 10 days. I believe that Siriel will wait patiently.”

Siron answered neatly and put the ring box into his chest.
