Chapter 1292
Episode 1287. If it wasn’t for the saintess, she would have died.
After Luna Mylus’ explanation, Crea asked cautiously.
“Come on, Lady. I know the Earth Goddess as Sagartha… when did that change?”
For a moment, everyone’s eyes turned to Luna Mylus.
Since the saintess couldn’t have misunderstood, did the god change in the meantime?
“Don’t get me wrong. Because I was just talking about that statue. That statue is obviously the ancient god Kurea. Kurea is an ancient god and was the goddess of the earth before Sagartha.”
People’s eyes twinkled at the word ‘ancient god’.
There are records that there were ancient gods before the present gods, but that is all.
Nothing is known about the names, appearances, or roles of the ancient gods.
Knowing one of those ancient gods was truly historic.
People wanted to hear more from the saintess, but Elio stopped them.
Although he was not interested in anything other than Ushas Undra (Golden Thread), it was to protect Luna Mylus.
“It’s fine if it’s not the statue of Ushas Undra. Now that I know the new statue has nothing to do with Ushas Undra… I’ll have to go outside the safe zone next time. A scared person may remain in a safe area.”
No one answered Elio’s words.
The paladin was a follower of the saintess Luna Mylus, and the others were followers of Elio and Luna Mylus.
Akerio’s mercenaries moved in formation again.
Elio glanced back at the statue before leaving the temple site.
I don’t know why there are statues of ancient gods in the Abyss, not even on the ground.
I wanted to hear Luna Mylus’ opinion, but I didn’t ask.
It was because she was afraid that she would use her goddess abilities to find answers.
‘It has nothing to do with me, let’s forget it.’
Elio struggled to shake off his curiosity.
Being not a person from another world, he had no reason to cling to the forgotten ancient gods.
Three days later, Elio and his party arrived at the safe town of Exodo.
There, after saying goodbye to Merdef and Akerio’s mercenaries, Elio’s party went to the ground.
***
Exo too.
bar baron.
A man sat in a corner seat and sipped honey wine.
This is Merdef, who was taken as a guide and separated from the Falcon Mercenary Corps.
“ha! Fuck… where did everyone go?”
Exo and Tombstone search the bar, but no one knows about the whereabouts of the Falcon mercenaries.
He said he hadn’t seen it since about a month ago, as if he had risen into the sky.
“Did everyone really die in the Abyss?”
That was the only thing the mercenaries would disappear without leaving a trace.
There was a high probability that he would have been annihilated because the wave overlapped with the Abyss just in time.
“I need to find a new mercenary. Is there anywhere that can be used?”
If the Falcon mercenary corps disappeared, joining another mercenary corps would be enough. Since he was a veteran, he had the confidence to join any mercenary group.
As Merdef was looking for a mercenary group to join, a handsome old man sat down in front of him.
“…who are you?”
To Merdef’s question, Charles Manson, the 7th-circle warlock, answered with a smile.
“That’s later. Rather, I heard that he was a member of the Falcon Mercenary Corps. Is that right?”
Merdef was offended by the other person’s one-sided conversation, but did not show it.
It was because the eyes of the old man, shining like snakes, were so frightening.
“you’re right.”
“Then why are you looking for the Falcon Mercenaries?”
“Ah, that’s…”
Merdef told the story of the adventurers and himself.
“…I went around the frontier area with them, and the mercenary group disappeared. I asked people who might know, and it’s been a while since I’ve seen them… I
think I got hit by a wave. Isn’t that the only way for a mercenary group to disappear without a rumor?”
“I don’t think so.”
Charles Manson knew the end of the Falcon Mercenaries, but he did not teach them.
“Do you have something to do with the Falcon Mercenary Corps, too?”
“No, more than that, tell me about the adventurers you were guiding.”
“Adventurers?”
“Is there anyone who stands out?”
“Anyone who stands out? Oops! Don’t talk. It’s the first time I’ve ever seen such adventurers live and live.”
Charles Manson stared at Merdef as if telling him to continue.
“The most notable was the saintess. The beauty was not really human.”
“and?”
When Merdef was about to get lost in talking about women, Charles Manson quickly moved on.
“There was a sword master of a similar age to you. But do you know what is surprising?”
“What was so surprising?”
“The person leading that group of adventurers wasn’t the Sword Master.”
“Ohh. Who is that person?”
“It was a young magic swordsman. I thought he was called Lord Lagoa… but I’m not sure.”
“I see.”
“That person might be even greater than the Sword Master.”
“Why?”
“I shouldn’t say this anywhere…”
Merdef rolled his eyes, and Charles Manson placed a one gold coin on the table.
“We crossed Mount Parton and entered the desert, but what kind of crazy people were hitting us with magic guns? At that time, the magic swordsman slashed the whole area with strange magic.”
“Ohh. Was anyone hurt?”
“What? A magic swordsman is almost dying after being hit by a magic gun… Kyaha! Why would the saintess treat it with divine power? If the saintess had been a little late, the magic swordsman would have died.”
A flash flashed in Charles Manson’s eyes.
Did the excitium work for the grand master, Count Helio Lagoa?
“You must have been seriously injured?”
“Was it bad? Because I was out of breath. If it wasn’t for the saintess, I would have really died. And as for the person who caught my eye again…”
“It’s done. That’s enough.”
Charles Manson interrupted Merdef.
Except for the confirmation of the existence of Count Helio Lagoa, everything else was audible.
Soon after, he cursed Merdev without noticing and got up from his seat.
Merdef didn’t know that her fate had been decided and took the glass of honey wine.
‘It’s a lucky day.’
The old man said a little bit and worked for gold! I wish every day was like today.
***
Great Forest.
Tombstone.
Elio and the others made plans to travel to Abyss again in Tombstone.
This time, I decided to explore Mount Petra and Mount Parton with a little more leisure.
The decision to look at Mount Petra and Mount Parton was actually out of curiosity about the steel golem.
Everyone in Elio wanted to see the steel golem that caused the war.
“Let’s look around Mount Parton first and then go to Mount Petra.”
Fabian asked at Elio’s words.
“Aren’t we going to Mount Petra first?”
“uh.”
“Is there anything to see on Mount Parton?”
Parton Mountain is a representative safe area for collecting medicinal herbs.
It wasn’t a particularly attractive place, I just added it because I had to leave it out.
“I’m going to take Parton Mountain first and then go to the unexplored area through the canyon where monsters go from Mount Petra. If you go to Petra first, you have to go back.”
“ah! Considering the movement, I should do that.”
Fabian looked at Count Elio Lagoa with new eyes.
At times like this, it seems like you are really looking ahead.
If that sharpness is always maintained, you will hear the voice of the wise, but only then.
It is said that the Count of Lagoa in normal times is simple and ignorant.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“Unexpectedly, I think Lord Lagoa has a good head.”
“Unexpected?”
“Aren’t you always like a sick chicken?”
“I?”
“Yes, I am talking about Lord Lagoa.”
Fabian, who likes to speak the truth, even gave me a cool confirmation.
Baron Howard Solon and Crea – who had recently joined the Rock Road manor with difficulty – looked at Fabian with tense eyes.
It’s just amazing that someone who is only a baron calls the grand master Count Elio Lagoa a ‘sick chicken’.
However, Elio turned around with a nonchalant face.
“But what if we don’t let them enter the mines of Mount Petra? I heard you are restricting access?”
“You’re not going to let me in, are you?”
“I have to go in.”
“Then why are you worrying about that? You’re going in anyway.”
“I was wondering if there was a way to minimize the backlash.”
“Since the Northern Kingdom is an ally, they might allow entry.”
“I hope so.”
Elio sincerely hoped so.
It’s because I didn’t want to lose with the southern kingdom just to see the steel golem.
Paladin Almet Hareb, who was just watching as if it were someone else’s business, sneaked in.
“By the way, Lord Lagoa, how are you feeling? We’ve been living in Abyss for a little over a month… Have you noticed any changes?”
“Not at all. How about the Holy Knight?”
“I didn’t feel any anger or increased pleasure.”
At the paladin’s words, the others nodded as well.
“I was the same as usual.”
“me too.”
Fabian, who had been listening with a nod of his head, opened his mouth.
“I think it’s okay to go beyond a month. Hey, there are people who live in Exo Island… I don’t think it’s a big problem with the body or mind.”
“It’s good to be careful, though.”
Elio stopped talking about Chaos.
It is because Luna Mylus can inadvertently bring up the memories of the goddess while explaining that.
Wouldn’t you know that chaos is an energy that harms humans like poison?
Unless that’s the case, I’m thinking of ending it in line with others.
next day.
Elio bought a lot of groceries from Tombstone’s shops.
You don’t know what will happen in unexplored areas, so you are fully prepared.
Fabian shook his head excitedly at Elio’s action.
“What kind of food do you buy so much? I’ll be back in about a month anyway.”
“It’s about preparing for an emergency.”
“Honestly, Lord Lagoa doesn’t have to prepare for something like that?”
“A lion must do his best even if he catches a rabbit.”
“I’m saying this because I think you’re overly concerned about what you’re capable of.”
“So you won’t eat?”
“I think I need to take care of more.”
Fabian picked up everything he could find and started piling them on top of the counter.
***
Abyss.
Exo, a village in the pioneering area.
Halon is a favorite bar for Abyss mercenaries and adventurers.
It wasn’t because alcohol or snacks were okay or because of the female president, which was rare in the Abyss.
Halon was one of the taverns that served as guild offices on the ground.
Halon’s interior walls had dozens of papers attached to recruit people, and mercenaries and adventurers came to Halon to see them.
Of course, that paper cannot be pasted on by anyone.
When the mercenaries and the group of adventurers handed the owner paper and money, the owner would attach the paper to an appropriate location on the inside wall of the bar.
Charles Manson placed a bag of paper and money on the checkout counter.
Larissa, the owner of the bar, picked up the paper and read it.
“Not an individual… are you recruiting a mercenary or group of adventurers?”
“why? Can’t that be?”
“There is nothing that can’t be done. Only if the reward is generous. 10 gold a day? Isn’t this the wrong use of gold?”
The paper Larissa was holding unfolded in front of the old man’s eyes.
It often takes at least a month or more to be active in Abyss.
But you’re willing to pay ten gold a day?
It couldn’t have happened if it wasn’t a mistake.
