Chapter 272

Among the 10 mage towers, Bohemirn mage tower ranks 4th.

However, if only magical power is discussed, there is no doubt that it is within two fingers.

Baloch Besias, who is called the all-powerful transcendentalist.

The Mage Tower he leads is enjoying the most prosperity in all of the past.

It was because he raised the level of the Mage Tower at an unprecedented speed by announcing various achievements to the world in the overall ranking, which was only midway until a few years ago.

There are many complex factors intertwined in this explosive growth, but it was clear that the existence of Verden accounted for the largest share among them.

An unrivaled understanding of magic, understanding the root without being seduced by the overgrown branches. A magical system that is perfectly in place in your head like a completed puzzle.

As a result of using such beings as unofficial test subjects, they have now become a group that no one dares to surpass.

‘As expected, his choice was right. Baloch must still be so sure.’

However, Bohemirn Magic Tower is currently at the center of a huge incident.

Two bad things that caused it.

First is the loss of the mage tower due to runaway power sources.

The moment the infinite magical power was lost, all functions of the mage tower stopped, and most of the experimental data exposed to the enormous magical power was destroyed.

The same goes for experiments that cannot be revealed to the public.

The sorcerer who remained in the unofficial laboratory and continued the forbidden research was also annihilated.

Of course, most of the staff were away due to the magic festival at the time, but it can never be concluded that the damage was small.

In order to restore at least some of the lost research materials, even one such number would be very disappointing.

The growth rate that reached such a peak plunged almost vertically toward the bottom.

No, it is self-evident that the magic tower has been put on hold so much that it cannot move forward, let alone grow.

And secondly, Black Hour was pointed out as the beast that caused the tower’s power source to run out of control.

‘Did they plant a spy in the Magic Tower?’

I’m sure it is.

Baloch, who lost sight of the space magic circle created by Verden, must have been convinced that there was an insider.

He would have immediately found out about everyone in the Mage Tower, and found evidence of the Black Hour while searching out all the wizards who had even the slightest suspicion.

Of course, there was no way Verden was discovered during that time.

It was judged already dead, so it must have been on the other side of the list of dead.

‘It’s a coincidence, but there’s nothing wrong with it.’

The Bohemirn Magic Tower has lost its base.

Instead of restoring the facility, the head of the Hana Magic Tower chose to go to war with the Black Hour in order to take responsibility for the runaway power source.

A situation where the two forces, Verden’s goal, gnaw each other’s power.

More than a year has already passed.

According to the newspapers related to the West Continent obtained by Fernet abroad, the dispute between the two powers is still going on.

However, the war situation was slightly inclined towards the Bohemirn Magic Tower.

‘It’s because the other magic towers are participating.’

It must have started in earnest after the power of Black Hour had been eroded to some extent. If you accidentally bump into them, you could take a lot of damage.

In other words, it was an intention to reduce the loss as much as possible and at the same time pay off the debt to the Bohemirn Magic Tower.

‘Still, the war is still far from over.’

A Bohemirn Magic Tower that has lost its power source.

Black Hour, who was named the culprit on behalf of Verden.

The bitterness between the two groups is now irreversible.

In order for the end to come, one must be destroyed or destroyed. The signal was the death of Dahit or Baloch.

Of course, just like the last time they bumped into each other at the Cliff of Eternity, we can be sure that the decision won’t come easily because they are transcendants of magic.

‘I want the war to last as long as possible.’

The gradual weakening of the strength of exactly two forces is sufficient.

Because the wizard who will destroy the Bohemirn Magic Tower has already been decided. That role could not be conceded to anyone.

He spread his magic far and wide.

Dozens of sheets of paper prepared by Fernet unfolded in an orderly manner in front of his eyes. The blue eyes filled with letters were read in an instant.

News about the eastern continent.

Among them, the kingdom of Estyria, the united city-states located in the northwest, ‘Kailience’ and ‘Midlos Dominion’ are noisy due to sub-races and hetero-species overflowing from all sides.

As if it wasn’t enough for the adventurers to be active, the Mage Towers, which have branches in the Midlos Dominion, are dispatching magicians.

This is a widely known background.

Verden paid attention to the internal events in the Dominion of Midlos.

[The teeth of an alien species directed at the Mamentus Company’s wagon. Sanghoju died instantly on the spot.]

[A disturbing street plagued by heinous crimes.]

[The finest inn, the rainbow cradle. burned by an explosion. Is it an incident or an accident?]

.

.

.

These are the headlines that appeared in the newspapers of the Dominion.

On the surface, it’s just a sequence of events, but it’s different if you know the inside story.

The Dominion of Midlos is a place where the mage towers have a great influence.

Mamentus Corporation, Rainbow Cradle, etc. are businesses in which Bohemian Magic Tower has a significant stake.

As a source of local funds and a device to increase influence on the Dominion, it was information that was not known unless you were an insider of the Mage Tower.

‘A disaster in the Western Continent is a golden opportunity for hostile forces to stir up the Bohemian Magic Tower.’

It seems clear to Verden.

Faint threads hidden among countless events. In order to complete the picture drawn in your head, you must find and contact the owner of the thread.

You don’t have to find it alone.

The organizations listed in Robert’s data will become Verden’s limbs.

With this, the next destination has been determined.

‘Dominion of Midlos.’

An independent region that does not belong to any country.

At the same time, it is a territory coveted by the magic towers, an external force.

* * *

Now that the plan has been established, there is nothing more to do in Loapra.

I tried to leave the dark area like that, but somehow I knew that a crowd had gathered in front of the gray castle.

Not only the members of Vintert’s organization, but also the faces of those in power who rule the underworld’s district were visible.

Fear glared on their faces.

It seems that the effects of Grond’s death are still lingering. The sight of that day was so shocking that no one will ever forget it.

“… … .”

Verden turned his gaze to the side.

Draken met his eyes and lowered his head. Perhaps it was because of the injury suffered by Galliac, but he seemed to have given up somewhere.

Just then, Robert and Guile approached.

“I was going to go quietly. You did something wrong.”

“Assher is leaving, how can I just let him go? Please forgive me if you were offended.”

Gail bowed her head.

It was an extremely polite attitude until the very end.

Verden, who had nothing to say, turned to Robert.

“Now that you are the representative of Roapra, have you become the king of the underworld?”

“No, it is not.”

Robert adamantly denied it.

Are the kings and representatives of the underworld separate?

Perhaps, due to the nature of the underworld, the strongest will rise to the throne.

Then I wondered if the criminals would hold a tournament or something so that the winner would sit on the throne… … It wasn’t.

“Here, the ruler of Loapra is still Lord Asher.”

“I would have said I was giving up.”

“… … It’s a shame, but it’s a tradition of Loapra. Except for possessing strength comparable to the current king or usurping the throne, no master of the underworld is inherited. And overseas beyond the kingdom, Asher is already known as the ruler of Roapra. Besides———”

Robert explained carefully.

Of course, those words didn’t make much sense. It was over when Verden declared that it would change the tradition entirely.

A fact she is already aware of.

Even so, there was a reason for putting Verden on the throne.

By officially introducing the name Asher, he must be trying to show a friendly attitude towards the Marquis of Esperenza while at the same time lowering his hostility toward the underworld.

Verden’s presence had such an impact.

I understood what Robert meant, but I didn’t bother to point it out.

“Well, do whatever you want.”

“… … Are you serious?”

“okay.”

Verden agreed.

There is no reason to refuse when they say that they will take care of you without having to manage them otherwise. And the name is useless anyway, except for the use mentioned above.

If you did something unacceptable, the Marquis of Esperenza would not stand by.

Verden had no intention of becoming Roapra’s shield.

The outcome after that was completely dependent on their own choices.

“Let’s go and see.”

Verden stepped forward.

The crowd split on either side bowed their backs.

It was a courtesy to the existence that ruled Roapra. Likewise, Robert, who had bent down, spoke from behind.

“Then, I will be waiting for your return.”

* * *

Verden returned to the royal castle, Esnoren.

Having decided on a destination, he passed the time and prepared to leave.

Everyone knew that Verden was leaving the kingdom soon, but they lived peaceful days without anyone expressing their feelings.

Eventually, the time to say goodbye came.

“As payment for Leonil’s artifacts, I paid off the 2.5 billion elk debt in Dyna Bank and put the balance in my account. Just as you asked.”

“Thank you, Edmon.”

“Heh heh, it’s you. I don’t know what to do when the young Count says that.”

Edmon, who was brushing his beard, held out his hand.

Verden also extended his arm and shook hands.

“During my discussions about magic with you, I learned about perspectives I hadn’t known before. It was a big shock, but it’s a different realization at this age… … It’s been a long time since I’ve had this feeling. I learned a lot during that time.”

“Neither do I.”

“What about the same? The views and theories I speak of have been refuted without a trace. Humility is not for you.”

After shaking hands, Edmon smiled.

“I will never forget this life you saved, all of this. You are always welcome, so please visit the kingdom later. If possible, before I die of old age.”

Edmon laughed heartily.

Then he pointed to the castle gate.

“Then let’s go. There are people waiting for you more than me.”

Verden nodded and walked down the hallway.

After leaving the royal castle, the winter sunlight shone brightly.

Standing beneath it, he approached the two familiar people, an elf, and two spirits.

“You are leaving first, brother. I really envy you.”

Guardian Elf, Karance.

Together with Linus Baltimog and the forest spirit, he boarded the flying boat of the Marquess family and headed for the southern part of the kingdom.

Linus, who has to go to the West Continent, will get off on the way, and Karans and the spirits will move to the great forest under the protection of the Marquis family.

Of course, secretly without being caught outside.

“If it weren’t for my brother, I would have already died at the hands of cruel people. And the grace that killed the one who killed many elves. I will definitely pay you back later.”

Karanth resolutely promised.

Verden handed over a small bag he took out of subspace.

“Brother, this is… … .”

“Take it.”

A space bag in Grond’s safe.

The capacity is small, so it’s not worth much, but it’s enough to put food. It was filled with the finest snacks purchased in the royal capital.

Karans confirmed the contents and nodded once.

“Please visit Great Forest later. At that time, I will prepare a present that your brother will be satisfied with.”

“I’ll go when I get a chance.”

The greetings with Karans were over.

Next, it was Fernet’s turn for information.

“I vividly remember the time when I was struggling with debt… … I never dreamed that I would come into the family of the Marquis of Esperensa.”

Fernet was formally recruited into the Marquis family as an information merchant.

It seemed that the Marquis was paying attention to the ability to gather and combine information she had built. Verden even recommended it.

“Asher, have I been helpful to you?”

I didn’t even have to say it.

Because of that, I was able to achieve the purpose of visiting the kingdom in the first place.

Verden handed over the certificate with the seal of the kingdom.

“uh? What is this?”

“This is the gift we promised last time.”

Due to the relics exploration team, Ferne’s tavern has completely disappeared.

And Verden said he would make a new bar for her, who had lost her home in an instant. as a fee she had to pay to the relic exploration team.

“The land in Aserun is cheap. When I bought it through a later artist, the price was even lower. It is said to be the best located building in Aserun, so it would be suitable for setting up a tavern.”

“Asher… … !”

Fernet, holding the land document in her hand, cried.

Unknowingly, my eyes grew red. Blue shimmered around her.

‘A spirit and a human.’

Blue decided to stay in the kingdom of Estria.

It was the conclusion that Karans and Fernet came to after a long conversation.

The reason that Blue, which is made up of Verden’s magic, is friendly to humans unlike other spirits, and that a sudden change in the environment it has been living in would be negative.

And most of all, the intimacy formed between Blue and Ferne was great.

“Fernet, what are you going to do with the constraints you put on Blue?”

When Verden resurrected Blue, he engraved a forceful magic circle and placed restrictions on his actions so that he would not attack humans.

When we first met, he was frantic to annihilate Verden and the adventurers. It was a minimal safety measure.

Ferne stared at Blue.

Then he nodded his head broadly.

“Please release me. I will take good care of Blue.”

“I will.”

The mana trembled violently.

At the same time, a geometric magic circle emerged from Blue and shattered and disappeared. Since it was written directly with Verden’s magic, there was no need to use the destruction method.

A lighthearted Blue flew around the sky.

Finally, I stood in front of Calia.

She tilted her head, her dark red eyes shining.

“Am I going to end with just a greeting?”

“… … no.”

Verden showed a bracelet with a blue jewel on it.

“This temporarily strengthens the weapon’s sharpness———”

“That’s done.”

Calia held out her right arm.

Is there no need for an explanation? Verden, who naturally closed his mouth, stretched out his hand. Accessories adorned her wrists.

“Don’t cherish it. By the way, are you thinking of not going to Lines? Samwell and Aiden and Charlotte would also like to say hello.”

“We postpone that until later.”

“Next. Yes, that would be nice.”

Calia smiled.

Verden took his eyes off her and raised his head.

Through the windows of the castle, you can see the Marquis of Esperenza, Melzard, and Linus. Sebas and Kameon also occupied one side.

He gave a light glance and looked up at him.

Adele, Flona, ​​Silis, and Lorian were seated in the tower of the royal castle.

───Goodbye, Asher.

───May you be well.

A voice saying goodbye with Lorian’s telepathy.

Leaving Sillis slowly waving his hand, Verden flew up into the sky.

Magical power that wraps the whole body.

His figure disappeared from sight in an instant.
