Chapter 83
Dark Fantasy Paladin Chapter 83
Episode 83
The princess stared at Iden in silence for a long time.
Then, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly and he rested his chin on one hand.
“Preparations are thorough. But is there any reason to be with you?”
Iden shook his head.
“Don’t even think about it. “I know you need me.”
The labyrinth where the curse sleeps could only be visited by people of imperial blood and biblical heroes.
If either of them was absent, they could never enter or leave.
This was the reason why so many war letters were sent to Aiden.
“I guess you know something.”
“That’s right.”
The princess was quite puzzled.
This is because only the first in line of succession to the throne could access information about the curse. The ranking mentioned here does not refer to the crown prince or the eldest son.
Imperial family recognized by God. In other words, it refers to the person with the right to succeed to the kingdom.
In the current era, she was the first princess Lapelia.
So how does Aiden know? The princess had no choice but to interpret that a separate oracle had been given to the hero.
She slowly opened her mouth.
“I am lucky. “Previous kings just stamped their feet, but thanks to you, I have at least a chance.”
He was the first hero in 200 years. If Aiden had not appeared, the princess would not have been able to even visit the ruins like her ancestors.
Lapelia stopped laughing and spoke with a serious expression.
“I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you for this.”
The princess thought it was the right thing to do. Iden also slightly bowed his head in response.
She opened her mouth again.
“Apart from that, you made a mockery of the imperial family. Do you know?”
“of course.”
Iden attacked the Great Temple of Levana and exposed the imperial family’s corruption. The princess had a rough guess of his intentions.
“You don’t seem to have any sense of guilt.”
“That’s right. “I apologize if you find this disrespectful.”
The princess let out a laugh. Because that kind of reaction was unfamiliar to her.
The Bacheksar royal family was fundamentally different from the royal families of other countries. God’s lineage. That fact alone was absolute authority.
No power could show blatant disloyalty to the royal family. Now Iden was barely crossing that line.
However, as a princess, it was a bit difficult to point out rudeness.
This is because the Walenstal family may become a new name. The church and the imperial family have not yet acknowledged it, but unless the Book of Phaedna is denied, Iden will ascend to the throne. If it’s the other way around, you’ll end up as a sinner.
It was difficult to predict the outcome right now. Therefore, the princess could not confirm Aiden’s identity.
Lapelia waved her hands as if she couldn’t be bothered to think any more. Anyway, I didn’t criticize his attitude.
She said, leaning back against the backrest.
“I guess they’re planning to play the royal family.”
“It’s a little different. Don’t tie me up. “It’s all you want, so if it’s kept, it won’t be made public.”
The princess laughed.
“If binding means politics, it is wrong. You either become a god or die. “No matter which of the two results comes out, I will not bind you.”
That was correct. The moment Aiden gained the throne, not even the emperor could use him. If one were to become a criminal, political use itself was impossible.
Because he suddenly gained divine status, this was the result. In some ways, the weapon of history of corruption has lost its meaning.
If you look at it now, it was like that.
Iden nodded.
“You just have to remember.”
“There’s no way I could forget.”
The princess’s eyes sank slightly as she answered. After staring at Aiden for a moment, I changed the topic.
“Anyway, let’s listen to your story now. He said he would make me sit on the throne. “What do you get?”
There were many to list, but in the end, it was the possibility of winning the second half.
Aiden said calmly.
“God and humanity gain hope.”
The princess was very puzzled. The hope of God and humanity? Because that kind of chic didn’t suit the man in front of me at all. The princess did not sense anything like the temperament of a flatterer from Iden.
The princess narrowed her eyes slightly.
“Did you even know how to speak up?”
Aiden didn’t care and continued to speak.
“I am thrilled. Please become emperor and declare me a god.”
The princess stared into Aiden’s eyes for a moment. After a pause, I opened my mouth.
“good night. What would you do if you sat on the throne and changed your words? “Would you at least use my wealth as a weakness to threaten me?”
“That won’t happen. “I have already told you about the conditions of confidentiality.”
“It’s hard to believe. Then with what confidence do you do this? “If I break the covenant, you will have no straw.”
“You cannot break your promise.”
“Is that really the case?”
Aiden spoke in a calm voice.
“What did Bacheksar do first when he settled on the continent?”
“It’s out of the blue.”
“They oppressed all the transcendental people on the continent. But is there a dead godhead?”
In addition to the spirit creatures of the sea god Shaylan Ain, there are still remaining transcendents. Everyone was breathing heavily.
The princess’s eyes wavered for a moment.
“What do you want to say?”
“When I visited Atlantis the other day, Shaylan referred to Bacheksar as ‘him.’ She also asked me if the sun had forgiven her.”
It meant that he had already bowed down to Bacheksar. 200 years ago, the sea and the sun were equal. But not anymore.
The trampled Shaylan accepted his fate by being immersed in the deep sea for 200 years.
Now she was a minor deity of the sun. Like Aiden.
Aiden said.
“The situation of other transcendents is probably not that different. “I’m sure you already know what I mean.”
The sun wants to have many gods under his feet. At least we will stick to that will until we recapture the Holy Land. This was also the reason why Bacheksar did not slaughter the gods.
The representative of the sun, who will appear in the distant future, will liberate the sealed gods. And together with them we will retake the Holy Land. That became today.
The gods of the continent must have reflected sufficiently over the past 200 years. Of course, there still remained deities who harbored hatred toward the sun.
They were a sacrifice to Iden. Power Godslayer. Those who fail to repent will become Aiden’s flesh and blood.
In a word, it was Bacheksar’s design.
Also, in the original work, the first person to realize this fact and put God’s true will into practice was the princess.
Iden threw a bait to her so she would recognize it a little sooner.
But looking at the reaction, it seems like they have already figured it out.
The princess, who had been listening quietly, slowly opened her mouth.
“······I will announce it when I ascend to the throne.”
The princess was diagnosed as being true with the hypothesis she had just developed. Many emotions flashed through my mind, but they did not show on my face.
She spoke with her usual slightly arrogant and slightly bored expression on her face.
“I will sort out titles and etiquette after work is done. “Is it somehow uncomfortable?”
It was a completely unimportant issue at the moment. Iden shook his head.
“It is the denomination’s job to do. “You should focus on the immediate task rather than minor details.”
The princess laughed.
“I think we’d get along quite well together.”
Iden stared at her. The princess waved her hand lightly.
“I’m not talking about politics, so don’t misunderstand. “I remember my promise.”
“All right. “Don’t forget.”
After saying that, Iden got up from her seat and approached the princess’s office table.
A map of the Kingdom of Trafelgar on the desk. Aiden grabbed it and went back to the sofa.
The princess watched his actions in silence.
Iden placed the map on a small table. Then he looked at Lapelia.
The princess, who was looking at that gaze, burst out laughing.
“······I can’t understand anything from one to ten.”
She shook her head slightly and placed her palm on the map. At the same time, a halo of scarlet light began to encompass the entire hand.
A light source as strong as the sun. As it soon faded away, the map took on a different appearance.
He showed me the underground labyrinth of the Trapelgar Capital.
Iden opened his mouth.
“Let’s just briefly share our plans and get started right away.”
*
The largest and wealthiest city on the continent was definitely the Imperial Capital. Because it was adjacent to the Imperial Kingdom, it had a cultural and religious level, and was also a key political and administrative point.
Therefore, a large number of great nobles lived in the imperial capital. A face that most of Yuriel knows. This was the reason she couldn’t go outside.
Currently, the church is also keeping an eye on Uriel.
Whenever Iden went up and down on a sensitive topic, she was with him.
A representative example was the issue of the liberation of Atlantis, and she was still missing.
Yuriel, living in a shabby inn in the imperial capital, sighed. She was full of worry.
What if negotiations with the princess fail? I made an escape plan, but after that, I’ll be a fugitive. It was the most terrible situation of her life. Not even the Sacillier family can protect her.
Of course, I had no regrets.
Knight Gayball came to his senses and spoke in a low voice.
“Untie it now.”
His face was pale. He was tied to the wall and glared at Yuriel.
“······I’m sorry, Sir Gayball.”
“Shit! Right now—!”
The mermaid ‘Yonah’ of the Paak Seilun tribe hit him hard on the head, knocking him unconscious again.
Then he spoke to Yuriel.
“Don’t worry too much. “Lord Aiden… no, the Castle and House of Valenthal are always victorious.”
Jonah came here after being called by Aiden.
Yuriel said with a slight smile.
“Sure. “You said it would be about a week, so I’ll wait calmly.”
The moment Got nodded silently, a creaking noise was heard outside the door.
The sound of stepping on rotten wooden floors. Could it be Aiden? However, less than a day had passed since he left.
I couldn’t help but be nervous. Everyone except Gayball jumped up.
A moment later, the door squeaked open.
There was someone wearing a hood. After that, I saw the gay ball.
Just as Uriel was relieved, Hood slowly walked over and stood facing her.
He took off his hat and hugged Yuriel.
Red and platinum hair mixed together. The sunlight seeping in from outside the window brightened my hair.
“·····That lower level?”
“Yuriel, it’s been a while.”
The two were long-time friends. It seemed quite nice to see it.
Aiden strode in and took off Gayball’s bastard. Then he put it back on the hairless gayball himself.
The princess said when she saw that.
“How are you going to escape the imperial capital?”
“There is no need to walk.”
Jonah came over and shared some of his scales.
Aiden said.
“Please eat.”
“what?”
Jonah spoke carefully.
“You can experience mermaid in a short period of time.”
Lapelia smiled as if she understood.
“Then I guess you are Jonah.”
“I can only humble my humble name.”
“no. For your information, this is my first time eating mermaid.”
After saying that, the princess immediately swallowed the scale.
Aiden said, looking at Jonah.
“Clean up after yourself and go to the sanctuary. We need your strength there too.”
“Don’t worry.”
Jonah answered and took a few steps back. Iden pulled Uriel to him.
“Princess, please come here too.”
He hugged the waist of the two people and secured them. The moment the princess’s expression distorted in embarrassment, Iden slammed his leg into the ground.
Quaaaang! The floor sank. The three fell into a deep cliff.
It was a route known only to Aiden, connected to the labyrinth of the royal capital of Trapelgar.
