Chapter 1372
Episode 1372. Excitium is God’s Gift
Contrary to the plan, when the wires were stuck in the Shade Kingdom, the imperial family wiped out the magic towers.
While encouraging the mass production of excitium in the Three Great Magic Towers, he pressured the mercenary guilds to block transactions with the Hermetica Magic Towers one by one.
The Hermetica Mage Tower, which failed to obtain alchemy materials, was hit hard.
Excitium brought great changes to the world of knights and wizards.
Just as a large number of aspiring knights turned to musketeers, sorcerers’ interests shifted from magic research to alchemy.
It was a natural change in a situation where no magic could surpass excitium.
But can’t find alchemy ingredients?
Being eliminated from the competition between the magic towers is as obvious as seeing fire.
In the end, the Hermetica Magic Tower was able to resume the transaction with the Mercenary Guild by secretly conveying its intention to stop production of Artenium to the imperial family.
However, not everything went the way the imperial family intended.
Unfortunately, the imperial family did not know about the secret transaction between Magenta, the black market manager, and Adobe Magic Tower.
While the imperial family was concerned with preventing the mass production of Axitium and the production of Arthenium, the development of new weapons for the Adobe Mage Tower proceeded quickly without anyone interfering.
one month later.
The Three Demon Towers supplied the mass-produced Excitium to the Imperial Army.
The Imperial Army had been reorganized around the musketeers in the meantime.
The 21st Division, 22nd Division, and 23rd Division of the Imperial Army, armed with excitium, departed for the Shade Kingdom with a support unit for a mission shift.
The Imperial family had no doubt that the war would soon end with the three divisions.
It was only natural that they had the power to defeat the southern kingdom army with just one Battalion unit.
Two months later, three divisions of the reorganized Imperial Army arrived in the Shade Kingdom.
In the meantime, there was a big change in the expeditionary force stationed in the Shade Kingdom.
The 31st Division, 32nd Division, and 36th Division, which suffered heavy losses, were integrated into the 31st Division.
The 34th Division was also merged with the 30th Division.
With the dissolution of the 32nd Division, the magic corps – which was escorted by them – moved to the artillery brigade.
Thus, the 30th Division, 31st Division, 35th Division, and 37th Division Artillery Brigade, which had been merged with the 1st Army Group, remained in the Shade Kingdom.
Since there were 9 divisions in the expeditionary force, it means that 5 divisions were lost.
If you include the annihilated Iron Legion and the cavalry battalion, the damage is truly enormous.
Since the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force was the crown prince, it was a shame.
The three divisions of the Expeditionary Force (30th Division, 31st Division and 35th Division) returned to the Imperial Territory after giving up camps to the units to be replaced.
When three divisions (20th Division, 21st Division, 22nd Division) armed with Excitium joined, the prince immediately launched a massive counterattack.
A typhoon blew on the power lines that had been sluggish for a while.
The iron golems of the southern kingdoms were no longer strategic weapons.
The steel golem collapsed in vain before the offensive of three divisions composed of gunmen.
Some steel golems sprayed ‘light of death’ as if desperate, but because of the short range, only the ground was burned.
The Imperial Army recaptured the Shade Kingdom and advanced to the Adria Kingdom.
Within ten days of crossing the Adriatic border, the imperial army had captured even the most famous steel city of Peromuros in the Adriatic kingdom.
In Feromuros, the imperial army briefly regrouped.
Although the horse was reorganized, it was actually waiting for the resupply of excitium that had been consumed.

Islands Buk.
Fermosa Estella.
At dusk, Elio sipped tea leisurely in a window seat.
Even though he’s been doing nothing for months, he didn’t fret.
I couldn’t find the ‘vanguard of chaos’ yet, but I could feel it.
that you are very close to your destination.
It was difficult to gather information due to the uncooperative attitude of the imperial officials, but he calmly waited for the time to come as if he had become Taegong Kang.
Fabian ran around instead of Elio.
He was obsessed with collecting information to forget Ariette Albano.
Like when I was dating Ariette Albano, I went out in the morning and came back late at night.
Around dark, Bardos’ performance began.
Ariet Albano, the best bardos of the time, appeared as a high-end accommodation.
Her face looked so comfortable, as if her breakup with Fabian was a lie.
‘Because I’m not an ordinary woman.’
If he was like me, he would have left the system right away.
But Ariette Albano is playing and singing as usual.
What great serenity is this!
For a swordsman, the level of climax is the mindset to easily overcome.
Is it because of her soft tone?
Suddenly drunk, Elio called the clerk and ordered a beer.
Someone approached him as he sipped beer while watching the night view of the city.
“Count Lagoa.”
Elio, who had been staring blankly out the window, turned his head.
It was Miss Ariette Albano.
“yes?”
“Can I sit down for a moment?”
Elio nodded.
It was the first time I had been with Miss Ariette Albano since Fabian said she was dumped.
Ariette Albano, who was sitting across from me, said as if determined.
“You know that I broke up with Baron Fabian, right?”
Nod.
“I heard that the person who conceived Baron Fabian’s child is a baron from the Kingdom of Adria. Did you get another call from him by any chance?”
“Not yet.”
“Did I give up too soon?”
“well. Because each person takes it seriously differently…”
Ariette Albano nodded vigorously.
“that’s right. I have no intention of becoming someone’s descendant. Just like I do, I want my opponent to only look at me.”
Elio narrowed his eyes.
‘So what?’
When Elio didn’t respond, Ariette Albano continued.
“Baron Fabian hasn’t come back since that day. Should I say it’s a bit unkind, or should I say it’s cold?”
“It will be because it is clear that it is a tie and a break.”
“Anyway, it is. It happened because of your own fault… If you truly loved me, shouldn’t you apologize and hang on?”
“Are you willing to accept that?”
“If a nobleman from the Kingdom of Adria wants a union with Baron Fabian until the end… I will not accept it.”
“Baron Sophia will not give up.”
A woman who had seduced Fabian with the intention of doing so from the beginning, but how could she give up after getting pregnant?
“Even if Baron Fabian has a woman he loves?”
“I won’t mind.”
In his view, the fight favored Baron Sophia.
Baron Sophia was different from Ariette Albano not only in her identity but also in her thoughts.
“I… can’t live like that. I have no desire to live like that.”
“yes. So I heard you broke up.”
Elio looked at Ariette Albano with pitying eyes.
The love between Fabian and Ariette Albano was twisted by Baron Sophia.
Now, the only solution is whether Baron Sophia gives up Fabian or Ariette Albano becomes Fabian’s descendant.
However, seeing Ariette Albano, it seemed unlikely that she would live happily ever after.
“Can the Count help you?”
“Am I? How are you asking me to help?”
“I heard that Baron Sophia did not want Baron Fabian with a pure heart. If the Count can say something…”
A bitter smile appeared on Elio’s face.
“There is something I said to Fabian before. You reap what you sow, so be careful. Whatever Baron Sophia thinks, she has Fabian’s child in her womb. I have no right to say to Fabian, ‘Abandon your child’.”
“Baby is…”
Ariette Albano murmured.
The words ‘I can raise them’ lingered in my mouth.
As if he knew how Ariette Albano felt, Elio hit a wedge.
“No one should ever snatch a baby from its mother’s arms.”
Ariette Albano, who was lowering her head, spoke quietly.
“…I guess we have no choice but to break up.”
Elio clicked his tongue inwardly.
How could it be that he was performing with a bright face?
I told Fabian that we should break up, but she didn’t seem to be able to do that.
Ariette Albano filled the empty glass on the table and drank in gulps.
Then he nodded goodbye and left.
Fabian returned quite late into the night.
Elio told him the story he had with Ariette Albano.
“It seems you didn’t know what kind of person Sir Lagoa was.”
“Are you cursing?”
“Not at all. I was saying that Lord Lagoa is different from the other great nobles.”
If they were like ordinary great nobles, they might have taken Baron Sophia away from them or made her raise only the baby.
Count Helio Lagoa had the power to make that possible.
However, unlike other great nobles, he did not discriminate against people based on their status.
From slaves to emperors and even prisoners, he treated them with dignity.
It’s clear to see what he thinks of Baron Sophia and the baby in her belly.
“So what about you? Are you completely settled now?”
“There are still a few remnants of emotion… but I think it will be sorted out somehow. Rather, I heard strange words at a bar in Nam-gu.”
“What?”
“I happened to get to know the alchemist at a bar and had a drink together. he said this Excitium is a godsend.”
“godsend?”
Elio murmured quietly.
It’s the best exclamation, but it sounded quite meaningful because it was at the right time.
“I happened to open excitium… It’s a difficult thing to make even with current alchemy. I don’t understand why they made it 50 years ago.”
“Isn’t it because you’re a low-level alchemist?”
“I didn’t reveal where I was from, but from what I said, it seemed like I belonged to the Mage Tower. It is twice as difficult for an alchemist to enter the Mage Tower as for a wizard.”
That said, the level was high.
“Have you not heard of arthenium? It’s a failure created during an alchemy experiment. It’s like a cow walking backwards and catching a mouse. Who knows if Excitium did too?”
“Anyway, ‘Wouldn’t it be all right to investigate Extyrium?’ I suddenly had an idea.”
“Exitium was created 50 years ago, but the ‘vanguard of chaos’ is out now. The distance between the two is too far.”
“I do, but… the moment I hear the sound of ‘God’s Gift,’ Ushas Undra comes to mind.”
“That’s just a compliment. Don’t be too obsessed, cool your head. You seem to be overdoing it these days. You can take it easy.”
“Ah yes.”
Fabian was not stubborn.
It was because it was true that he was overdoing himself with Ariette Albano’s work.
Then Elio said.
“Meet that alchemist more. It’s a little bit difficult that I’ve tried excitium in the current situation.”
“You heard that the magic towers put more effort into alchemy than magic research these days. The most popular product of magic engineering is excitium, so you must have touched it. The alchemist said so. Imitation is the mother of creation.”
“Couldn’t it be that the second and third excitiums are pouring out?”
“Isn’t it a gift from God? Will the excitium be made easy?”
“It’s not difficult to make imitations.”
“Is that like that again? For the time being, I will dig up some alchemists.”
“Don’t push yourself too hard. Your face has become very half these days.”
“I think I should do that to clear my mind.”
Fabian, who unknowingly said his true intentions, scratched his head with an embarrassed face.
