Heavenly Inquisition Sword

Episode 1291. Did I?

Safe Zone Village EXO too.

7th Circle Warlock Charles Manson is both a wizard and an astrologer.

Before attending the academy, he learned astrology from his father, an astrologer.

Had he not been gifted with magic, he would have followed in his father’s footsteps as an astrologer.

Anyway, even after becoming a warlock, he often observed the movements of the stars.

Especially when it comes to important things.

Waking up at dawn, he rose from his bed and went out into the garden of the inn.

Clearly, a cool breeze blew from somewhere, even though it was an underground world.

I inhaled a cool breeze deep into my lungs and woke up completely.

With a clear mind, he inadvertently raised his head and looked up at the night sky.

‘It’s a staggering thing to say there’s a star underground.’

Moreover, there was no error in the slightest between that star and the one seen from the ground.

It means that the sky is the sky of the earth.

It’s been a long time since I gave up on thinking how that could be possible.

For thousands of years, humans have not had the answer.

Even astrologer Charles Manson didn’t think about ‘how?’

It is time for him to carefully observe the movements of the stars.

sparkle-!

A brightly shining star dragged its tail and fell obliquely.

Charles Manson’s eyes flashed as he reflexively traced the meteor’s trajectory backwards.

‘ah! That….’

It was the extinction of a god or a hero comparable to a god.

There are only two such heroes in this era, Archduke Knauf and Count Helio Lagoa.

Archduke Knauf has not yet participated in the war, so there is nothing to die.

On the other hand, there are currently three mercenaries targeting Count Elio Lagoa.

The magic gun given to them is sixty, and the excitium is two hundred.

Considering the battle propensity of Count Helio Lagoa, who runs rampant like a boar on the battlefield, it is enough to kill three or four times.

‘He dies in the end.’

Does the world know that the Grand Master will be killed by just three mercenaries?

***

Petra Mountain.

Unlike Mount Parton, Petra’s road was wide and well-maintained.

Even the milestones were kindly erected at each fork in the road, making it seem like a famous tourist destination.

Tynelock and Fabian stopped at the fork in the road.

Soon after, Elio and his party gathered in front of the high signpost.

“Where shall we go?”

Elio, who was looking at the milestones at Fabian’s question, muttered,

“Where do you want to go…”

The left side of the Adria mine is the center of the Masdar mine, and the right side is the Bostania mine.

The three southern kingdoms bordering the Great Grove seemed to have the easiest place.

Crea, from the southern kingdom, slipped in.

“To go to Skull Valley, you have to take the left path. The center is connected to the right side of the top of the mountain by the plain.”

“Then the left.”

When Elio’s words ran out, Tynelock and Fabian immediately headed for the left path.

After climbing the mountain path for about an hour, a guard post appeared.

Soon after, heavily armed guards jumped out and blocked the mountain path.

When the leader stopped, Elio and the others gathered again.

Fabian asked Crea with a puzzled face.

“Are you on the left side? Aren’t we on the wrong track? It looks like this is going straight to the Adria Mine?”

“But there was no other way, right?”

“That’s true, but why are the guards blocking the road?”

“I will ask the guards.”

With her horse, Crea approached the guards blocking the road.

“excuse me. I am an adventurer from Adria Royal Academy. I’m on my way to Skull Valley with my friends, isn’t it this way?”

Then one of the guards answered.

“The road is right.”

“Can I go up?”

“That’s right, but before that, show me your Abyss entry permit.”

“Why is that?”

Crea stared at the guard.

It was because he had never asked for an entry permit since entering the Abyss.

I also went to Mount Parton, so why would I need something like that to climb Mount Petra?

Wouldn’t it be known if Mount Petra belonged to the Adria Kingdom?

It wasn’t like that, but asking for an entry permit was an overkill.

“It’s because the Kingdom Alliance has issued an order to confirm the identity of those entering Mount Petra.”

“Just check? Or do you even prevent it from going up?”

“I don’t know what will happen later, but for now, I’m just telling you to check.”

“all right. Anyway, this road isn’t the only way to the mines of the Adria Kingdom, right?”

“Right. As you go along, there will be more milestones. There…”

As the guard hesitated, Crea persisted.

“Which way should I go from there? If you know, please teach me. It’s my first trip, but it’s been a while since I learned it at the academy, so I can’t remember.”

“I will teach you that you are from the Royal Academy of Adria. On the second milestone, go to the center. After that, just keep going left.”

“You mean to keep going to the center for the second time and then to the left?”

“Right. Now show us the party’s entry permits.”

“Wait.”

Crea went back to Elio and the others and told them about the conversation she had with the guards.

“…They asked me to show them my Abyss pass. I’m still just checking. Seeing you talk, I think the inside of the Abyss will become noisy sooner or later.”

Then Fabian patted Baron Howard Solon on the shoulder and condescendingly.

“We’re fine, but you’re from the principality, so what do you do? There will be many difficulties in the future.”

“Hey brother. You think the saintess and the paladin are also from the Empire?”

Then the paladin Almet Hareb spoke.

“No one is going to ask where the religious clergy come from. By the way, there are many temples of the Shastra Parakti Church in the Kingdom of Adria as well.”

“Ah… then I’ll be the only one from the Empire to get attention. I will be careful.”

Fabian, who was patting Baron Howard Solon on the shoulder as if to cheer him up, took out an entry permit and handed it to Crea.

Crea approached the guards with an access pass.

Even setting up a guard post and blocking the road, the results were futile.

The guards glanced at the pass and stood off the road in silence.

After passing the guard post and walking for a while, Elio grumbled.

“Do you really just check and send it? What does that mean?”

Then Luna Mylus spoke.

“It’s deliberately creating tension in the Southern Kingdom.”

“why?”

“Because of course I have the confidence to win the war. It means that the Abyss will be under the jurisdiction of the southern kingdom.”

“Hey, that’s pitiful. But the southern kingdoms won’t be able to monopolize the Abyss.”

Even with the wave of monsters right now, it was unreasonable to block only adventurers and mercenaries from the Southern Kingdom.

If there were no adventurers and mercenaries from the empire, the monsters would gradually encroach on them.

If so, humans may be kicked out of Mount Petra.

“If the people from the Empire leave, the southern kingdom will not be able to stand it and will withdraw.”

“I mean. I guess the decision makers in the Southern Kingdom don’t have eyes?”

“It’s always the case with plans made only at the desk.”

“If the Empire wins on land, the situation will be reversed, right?”

“At that time, wouldn’t the Empire try to control the Abyss again?”

“why?”

“The southern kingdom started a war with an ancient artifact obtained from the Abyss. Are you going to take action to prevent future wars?”

“In any case, the position of humans in the Abyss will decrease.”

“Abyss is not originally a human domain. Not even with humans.”

Hearing the meaningful words of Luna Mylus, Elio looked at her unconsciously.

“What do you mean by that?”

“huh? what?”

When Luna Mylus asked again, Elio, who blinked his eyes with an absurd face, said.

“You just said that the Abyss is not a human domain. Are you saying that humans shouldn’t exist?”

“Did I?”

Luna Mylus pointed at herself.

Surprised by her unusual behavior, Elio hurriedly evaded his words.

“I guess it was because I said it inadvertently. I also say things without thinking and there are many times when I don’t remember them.”

“…”

Luna Mylus, who was silent for a while, said in a calm tone.

“It seems that the boundary with the goddess is slowly breaking down. It seems to be an important word, so don’t overhear it and keep it in your head. Don’t be surprised, it will happen more often in the future.”

“Can’t you stop it with your sister’s strong mental strength?”

“If I am the river, the goddess is the sea. A river cannot go against the sea.”

Elio gritted his teeth and opened his eyes.

If I relaxed my eyes now, I felt like tears would pour out.

Fabian’s voice was heard in Elio’s ears as he walked with a confused mind.

“It’s a mine!”

After a while, Elio and the others stopped walking one by one.

On top of the huge cave, the words ‘Mine of the Kingdom of Adria’ were inscribed, and there were dozens of guard posts around it.

What is surprising, however, is the armed state of the guards at the post, numbering close to fifty.

What they carried on their shoulders was a magic gun.

Elio, who had been burned by the magic gun, shouted with a surprised face.

“No, why do you have so many magic guns?”

Then, as if to explain, Crea said.

“It must be a copy of the magic gun of the Imperial Mage Tower. I heard that the performance is a bit low and there is a risk of explosion, but it is still usable, so I keep copying it.”

“Aren’t they sanctioned for cloning in the Mage Tower?”

“I immediately gave up. There’s no way to stop magic gun duplication. Even if you are not a magic engineer, you can imitate the magic gun. Rather, it might be a better thing for the Magic Tower.”

“why?”

“The magic bullets of the Mage Tower are the best. The more magic guns there are, the greater the demand for magic bullets, so you might be happy with it.”

“Wow. amazing. Are you copying the magic gun in the Duchy of Howard?”

“no. If you do, you won’t be stamped on the Magic Tower. The principality is blocking trade in replicas.”

“Isn’t the magic gun lacking?”

“The Mage Tower supplies the principalities first, so there is nothing lacking. The Kingdom is replicating magic guns because they run out of supplies.”

“aha!”

“The cloned magic gun is dangerous… even if the musketeers of the duchy tell you to use it, they won’t use it. About one bag out of a hundred explodes. How do you use it?”

“That’s great. They just use it in the southern kingdoms? They are braves.”

Then Fabian approached Elio.

“You said you would tour the mines, but would you like to enter the mines of the Adria Kingdom?”

“It’s just that mines don’t make any sense, I’ll have to see where the steel golems come from. Do you think an iron golem came out of this?”

“I don’t know. There are a lot of guard posts, but are they all built like this or is there a lot of them here… I guess I’ll have to look at other mines to find out.”

“yes? There’s still a lot left, so let’s take a look at some other mines.”

“All right. Then I’ll just pass this place.”

Just in time, as the post guards glared at them, Elio and the others quietly left.

After passing the mines of the Adria Kingdom and climbing the mountain road for another two hours, the fork came again.

However, there were four crossroads.

Fabian, who was standing there with an annoyed face, asked Crea as if to confirm.

“Isn’t the guard telling you to go to the center?”

“ha! yes. Apparently it was. He said he taught me because he was from the Royal Academy of Adria.

Crea, who was tired of the arduous mountain climbing in Abyss, started cursing at first.
