Episode 256: Dream (1)

“Yes, yes, how are you?!”

Valrgna burst out in amazement and stuttered.

I was so taken aback that I had no time to save my dignity and face. People whispered behind his hesitant back.

“uh… … ? Didn’t the princess say that she couldn’t move her body?”

“I heard that too.”

It wasn’t just citizens who had questions.

The knights and soldiers, especially the Royal Guard, could not take their eyes off Sillis.

I’ve seen him move around in a wheelchair in the royal castle for years, but to see him move like that. There was a bright light in her eyes.

There was one more person here who couldn’t figure out the situation.

‘What happened?’

Leonil felt his mind wander. It feels like a really long time ago.

The sky where the phenomena occurred, the Marquis’ strange behavior, Princess Silis who came to her senses, and the silence that enveloped the plaza.

I couldn’t understand the series of situations unfolding right in front of my eyes.

Then, Silis stood up.

Even though many eyes gathered together, he did not care.

‘?!’

Leonil’s nerves were sharpened.

Even if I don’t know what the princess is trying to do, I don’t think I can leave her alone. It was an instinct based on experience.

Thoughts soon turned into actions.

It was a waste of time to take out the staff, so he reached out his hand.

“… … !”

I immediately applied defense magic because I felt alive from behind.

A hand covered in violent flames grabbed the blade aimed at his neck and stopped it.

Seeing the beast’s face, Leonil widened his eyes.

“Mmm, Melzard… … ?!”

The right hand of the Marquis of Esperenza.

Another raid followed.

Wow! The sphere of the storm that flew from the side hit the body.

Leonil flew into the air and applied the brakes by flying.

It’s familiar magic and magic. As soon as he found the caster, an old man was reflected in his field of vision.

‘To Edmon? Surely they should be escorting outside the capital?’

Besides, they weren’t all.

The Red Faith Knights of the Marquis of Esperenza, who had been hiding in the crowd, appeared and occupied the center of the square in an instant.

Adele’s peculiar trait, [Binnick].

His magical power acquired postnatally by Gluttony hides the existence of objects.

To the extent that Leonil wouldn’t even notice if he wasn’t conscious.

“Why is the Marquis family’s knights suddenly… … !”

“Damn, I don’t know what it is, but I think about it after conquering it!”

“no! Otherwise, the VIPs are in danger!”

The Guard Knights couldn’t move hastily.

Because there were the most important people on the podium, such as Balugna, the chancellor, and the duke. If they make up their minds, at least half of them will die.

For the same reason, court mages were also hesitant to use magic.

“Um… … !”

A tense confrontation situation.

Leonil, who was watching, narrowed his forehead.

“marquis. No, Princess Silis. Can you explain what the situation is?”

“… … .”

“Apart from the fact that the princess came to her senses… … I don’t know for what purpose you’re doing this, but please stop. Also release the hostages. If you stop here, I will forgive you for attacking me.”

Silis stopped moving.

‘I don’t know why… … .’

Yes, I guess.

To her, it’s as clear as yesterday, but to them, it’s already been 20 years. No wonder she couldn’t immediately remember the time.

Not just Leonil, but everyone.

“Leonil Bertanas.”

Silis was cynical.

An eerie voice pierced my ears.

“Is your mental power as great as magic?”

“What does that mean… … .”

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Silis’s eyes turned to twilight.

thump, thump, thump.

An intense sound pulsates.

[Witch’s Crown of Thorns].

An artifact that can only be worn by women and temporarily grants different, special magic traits for each wizard.

When worn for a long time, it has the fatal side effect of gradually losing intelligence and at the same time twisting the magic circuit and dying due to runaway.

‘But that’s a reaction caused by not being the right person.’

This is a demon only for witches.

An exclusive artifact created by the almost extinct ancient witches for their king.

Thorns grew from the crown of thorns and reached the temples.

A drop of blood forms slightly at the end, and unprecedented power takes root in the magic circuit. Right after that, the witch’s magical power radiated from Sillis’ heart and enveloped her whole body.

I was thrilled with the indescribable power.

‘It’s on a different level from what I only knew with the witch’s knowledge.’

Silis, who managed to suppress her excitement, raised her head.

The first opponent to use this mighty power has already been decided.

Leonil Bertanas, who is the biggest obstacle to revenge, and who processed his mother’s heart.

Seelis’ eyes flashed.

“?!”

Under the twilight sky, the space surrounding Leonil is distorted.

And even the court mages in the upper ranks who were by his side.

We are familiar with all troop deployment situations.

This is why they waited for the coronation ceremony. In order to wipe out those who belong to the risk factor at once by trapping them in the worst nightmare.

Leonil’s eyes twitched.

‘Why did you blow me here? Was it for this?’

“Destroy the magic immediately.”

The Court Wizard Commander ordered it.

Beside him is the royal family’s military group consisting of 5th tier or higher wizards. It was enough to break the trap or whatever from the front.

‘At least the princess’s magic.’

But it was impossible.

“Go, Your Excellency! Magic doesn’t work!”

“Physical breakthrough is also impossible!”

The court mages were perplexed.

Leonil, who was worse than him, caused a powerful flame explosion, but it was the same. A sensation as if the generated shock had been blown away somewhere.

‘What the hell did I prepare?’

An opaque space is gradually approaching.

The progress of magic cannot be stopped. I don’t even know what this magic is in the first place— No, wait.

‘If this is what the princess did… … .’

For a moment, Leonil’s eyes widened.

A memory that strikes the brain. I finally remembered what her bloodline was, which I had forgotten a long time ago.

no way.

“witch… … !!! How can that power be upon you!”

I saw right through my identity.

But even so, nothing changes.

Leonil hurriedly cast extension magic to get out of the spell, but it was meaningless.

“Silis! Such a proposal———!”

After the scene where he stretches out his arms, the space closes.

Leonil and the upper court mages disappeared from the capital as if they had evaporated.

* * *

“Le, His Excellency Leonil… … .”

A cold stillness prevailed.

The kingdom’s strongest was defeated. in just one count. At that fact, both the Guard Knights and the remaining Court Magicians were stunned.

“haha… … .”

Silis gasped.

A sense of exhaustion arose in his whole body because he had devoted most of his magic power.

‘succeded.’

It was as planned.

Leonil and his minions will lose their minds in nightmares and kill each other in delirium.

Until reason is completely destroyed and reduced to ashes.

If there is anyone who survives by then, all you have to do is kill them later.

With the obstruction cleared, now is the next step.

“marquis.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

The Marquis of Esperenza approached Valgna.

It moved one step faster than the first prince who was stepping back, striking his abdomen.

“Gagging?!”

Valrgna’s legs collapsed.

As the first prince, he was generally educated, but he was not comparable to the marquis. He dragged the stunned Balugna and threw it at the terrified chancellor.

At that moment, a knight with a bastard sword shouted.

“Marquis of Esperenza! Stop!”

“Kazen.”

Commander of the Royal Guard Knights, Kazen DeWitt.

He gripped his sword and sighed strongly.

“Marquis, do you know what you are doing?! To attack Her Highness Balugna, whom Her Majesty has personally chosen as the next king. This, this is treason!”

“Treason… … .”

Sureureung.

The Marquis drew his sword.

Red eyes glittered like drops of blood.

“If serving the kingdom is treason, I am willing to do it.”

“marquis! Hello you!”

Didn’t answer further.

Kazen was also the subject of the princess’ revenge.

Knowing the atrocities he had done, he only looked at me with contempt.

The Marquis raised his sword high and lowered it into the air. that was the signal

The concealed marquess fleet appeared all at once and began to enter the royal capital.

“Mi, crazy… … Maybe even a flying boat… … !”

It’s not just a level of treason.

This was tantamount to a war between the princess and the marquis against the current royal family. Cold sweat ran down Kazen’s helmet.

The fleet safely crossed the wall.

The frame of the stage that was planned was finally completed.

Now it was the witch’s turn to move.

‘Finally.’

Silis stretched out her right hand toward the front.

Countless eyes face her. If you activate the witch’s magic like this, your revenge will begin.

They will face the destruction and pain they should have gone through, not the peace stained with blood.

“… … .”

Seelis hesitated for a moment.

It would be over with just one step forward, but the unresolved hesitation consumed her.

everything is annoying

A girl holding a melted ice cream in her hand and being held by her mother. Even the frightened boy hiding behind her father’s leg.

As for the Marquis of Esperenza, who was trying hard not to see the horrors that were to come.

It was visible in Sillis’s eyes.

The blood of the victims, including the mother, was sticking to the bodies of the citizens. They lived in a brutal peace.

Ignorance cannot be an indulgence.

But I have no intention of punishing you for hating you.

It only takes away the peace they once enjoyed… … .

thoughts deepen

You must not linger long.

In the end, Silis had to decide.

Immediately, he closed his eyes tightly and held his outstretched hand tightly.

Twilight in the sparkling sky.

The royal road reflected in it fell asleep in a dream.

* * *

Verden had once visited Letia as well.

Following the Marquis of Esperenza, he met Rhinedel Nexleon, the lord of Dark Warton, and Archbishop Joseph.

Naturally, the scenery of the royal capital was also included in it.

“That… … .”

But the scenery I saw then completely disappeared.

The royal capital at the end of the horizon was shrouded in thick fog. An ominous pale purple light radiates from within.

It was as if a veil of twilight was wrapped around it.

‘Is it Sillis’ magic?’

Following Roapra, this time it is Wang Dora.

No matter how much they prepared in advance, all of them were abnormally wide-ranging magics.

Efficiency, performance, power, and other things, I don’t know, but at least that scale definitely surpassed Verden.

Anyway, I found it, so there is no reason to delay.

It seems to be different from the veil that sealed Roapra… … It is not known what kind of nature it is unless you examine it up close.

Maybe it’s to separate the space.

So, I have no choice but to use Einver to get over it.

Consumed three ores.

Enveloped in light, Verden’s body jumped through space and entered the royal road. Appearing in the pillar of brilliance, he immediately grasped his surroundings.

To find out what happened to the royal capital and what kind of magic the princess used.

Verden, holding the Orient and activating the magic circuit, was fully prepared.

“… … !”

But even so, I couldn’t help but be surprised. No, this was close to astonishment.

A world of twilight unfolds before your eyes.

The royal capital Letia, which split into many branches, was transformed into an island colony. Even while floating in the sky.

* * *

Verden stopped on the empty streets of the royal capital.

The first step was to analyze this magical phenomenon before making any hasty move. Because this is way beyond the limit.

‘The whole space is twisted.’

The place where Verden is standing is near the entrance to the gate of the royal capital on the lowest island.

When I look up, other sky islands are fixed in the air.

Outside the island, a vast expanse of twilight spread endlessly regardless of direction.

Whatever happened, it was far beyond expectations.

No matter how much, even the king overturned the whole thing.

‘In terms of power, it’s enough to believe that it’s super-level magic.’

However, I felt a sense of difference.

Although they only met in the spirit world, they did not feel any transcendent energy from Sillis. Even if she used an artifact, it was the same.

The level of transcendence can only be obtained by building it up on your own, without borrowing the power of arms.

‘Then what the hell is this magic?’

I thought about it, but came to no conclusion.

Verden stopped thinking and moved on. He didn’t know if he could find out what this world was like if he looked around.

After a while, Verden arrived at the square of the royal capital.

Unlike the streets so far, this place was not empty.

It was filled with countless people.

Citizens, soldiers, and knights gathered to watch the coronation ceremony. People from various professions, young and old, collapsed on the floor and closed their eyes.

‘… … Is it dead?’

Verden checked the condition of each person.

Check your breathing. Although fairly shallow, it was close to normal.

The heart is also relatively feeble, but it is beating normally.

However, the presence is felt very lightly.

I guess I fell asleep as if I was dead.

Observation continued.

I checked the condition of several people, and the result came out that they were all in the same state of suspended animation.

At the end, Verden was able to grasp the identity of this world.

‘This isn’t reality.’

It is a mental realm infinitely close to him.

It was a spiritual world manifested in reality through magic.

A witch is a magical being who controls dreams.

In other words, this place was a dream created by Silis.
