1243 times. You want to meet the god of dreams and illusions?
Elio did not want to be deeply involved in the affairs of this world.
Although he had nothing to do with this world, he wanted to quickly return to his family.
They say it’s time to go back to the point I desperately want, but it’s because I missed my family so much.
While he was thinking about his family, Duke Killian Hale’s voice sounded in his ears.
“But what about the South? “I guess Count Lagoa is also interested in the Abyss?”
Duke Killian Hale asked curiously.
Since Count Elio Lagoa found a star in the sky, I thought it would be like the Abyss.
“Yes, that’s right. “I’m on my way to the Abyss.”
Elio, who had no reason to hide it, did not deny it.
In any case, the Imperial Intelligence Department would have known that their destination was the Great Forest.
“Is the Count also interested in relics?”
“Not at all. “I am looking for the owner of the Abyss rather than an artifact.”
“Lord of the Abyss? Are you really referring to Ushas Undra? “You want to meet the god of dreams and illusions?”
“That’s right.”
“Hehehe! I didn’t know the Count had such romance. Ushas Undra, oh my!”
“Is that romantic?”
“The wish of the children of a noble family is to meet Ushas Undra. Ushas Undra is known to make people’s dreams and fantasies come true. It’s understandable that young people will be tempted. But does Count Lagoa, who has reached the ultimate level, still have any dreams left to achieve?”
“My goal is to meet Ushas Undra itself.”
“Are you saying you’re not going to make a wish to Ushas Undra, but just to meet him?”
“That’s right.”
“Now that Count Lagoa is going to the Abyss, can I ask you a favor?”
“What is it?”
“I would appreciate it if you could find out how many relics from the Dark Age there are in the Southern Kingdom. If there are more than five, why are they only deploying five relics to the front line? “How is it?”
“Isn’t this a simple request?”
Then Duke Killian Hale smiled and said.
“That’s true even for ordinary people. “I don’t think it would be difficult with Count Lagoa’s abilities.”
“sorry. That seems difficult. Right now, finding Ushas Undra is more urgent. “I can’t waste my time doing other things.”
“Then how about doing this? You don’t have to do anything special to find out. If by chance we find out about the Count’s party while they are passing through the south, we will inform them at that time. “How is it?”
Duke Killian Hale did not give up easily.
This is because I really wanted to know about steel golems because they are such a big variable from the standpoint of waging war.
“… … .”
Elio couldn’t answer easily.
More than anything else, I don’t want to get involved in a war between empires and kingdoms.
“I know very well that Count Lagoa is trying not to get involved in this war. I hope this war ends quickly. Maybe the Southern Kingdom wants the Empire to give up after leading the war with relics from the Dark Age. But the Empire will never obey the wishes of the Southern Kingdom. “Do you know that the Empire has weapons against the relics of the Magic Age?”
“Is there such a thing?”
“There is. Fifty years ago, during the Imperial War, the Magic Tower designed a destructive weapon to end the war. “Accitium is a terrible magical bullet developed to kill the Sword Master of the Southern Kingdom.”
“Exitium?”
“I see. It is said that the Crown Prince is turning his attention to Exitium, which was discarded in the name of ‘fighting against the relics of the Magic Age’. Do you know what that means?”
“Are you saying that the Empire will ultimately win the war against the Southern Kingdom?”
“That’s natural, and then there’s the problem.”
“Is there a problem?”
“It takes decades and hundreds of gold in financial support to turn a knight into a sword master. That’s why sword masters only come from prestigious families.”
“So?”
“The cost to produce one Exitium is less than 100 gold. With less than 100 gold, I was able to kill a sword master who had invested hundreds, maybe more. “Imagine a world coming where even an ordinary person can kill a sword master if they know how to fire a magic gun.”
“her!”
A sigh flowed from Elio’s mouth.
Was the magic bullet that shot Gosling during his duel with Marquis Knauf also Exitium?
As I recalled the events of that day, my back felt throbbing.
“The Sword Master is not the only one suffering damage. Even we wizards can’t do anything in front of Exitium. “It’s difficult to block the current magic bullets with shield magic, let alone Exitium.”
“That magic bullet called Exitium. Have you already come out into the world?”
“That thing was made fifty years ago. Research and production were halted after that, but it wouldn’t be surprising if some magic tower secretly produced it. “Of all the items sold at the Magic Tower, there is nothing that is more cost-effective than that.”
“Duke, do you think it is possible to destroy the relics of the Magic Age with Exitium?”
“Considering the penetration and explosive power of Exitium, it is quite possible.”
“Why do the wizards of the Magic Tower create items that are dangerous even to themselves?”
“For wizards whose lives are all about research and invention, such things are not even a consideration. In any case, if the relics of the Magic Age are in full swing like they are now, the empire will eventually go into mass production of Exitium. I want to end this war as soon as possible. “Only then will the imperial family give up Exitium.”
“So you’re asking me to provide you with any information you have?”
“That’s accurate. If Exitium spreads throughout the empire… … . We will end up in a world where it will be difficult to walk down the street with peace of mind. “Especially those who have many enemies.”
Duke Killian Hale looked at Count Elio Lagoa with meaningful eyes.
It was difficult to count on one hand the number of great nobles who clashed with him, starting with the Counts of Putokoa and the more recent Grand Duke of Knauf.
Then Elio groaned.
“Oh my! The back of my head is already tingling. All right. I won’t be able to go around looking for information, but if I learn anything, I will share it with you. Instead, Duke, please promise me one thing.”
“Something?”
“If there is a great noble targeting me with Exitium, I would like you to let me know. As you know, there are so many great nobles targeting me.”
“I understand. Don’t do that. While we’re at it, I’ll give you some information. “Did anything bad happen with Tabula Magic Tower?”
“When I was in the system, there was a conflict of opinion, so I destroyed the magic tower a little. why? “Is it possible that the Tabula Magic Tower is targeting me?”
“Be careful. The three great magic towers of the system have a history of participating in the development and improvement of Exitium. Of course, it is possible to manufacture Exitium on our own. There is a story that Tabula Magic Tower supported Marquis Gosling Knauf’s side at the time of the duel.”
“ah! “Then I guess it was Exitium.”
“Exitium?”
Duke Killian Hale asked back with an absurd expression.
I thought it was still in the future, but has it already come out?
“During my duel with Marquis Knauf, I was hit in the back with a magic bullet. I almost got a hole in my back. It’s a shame because I was lucky, otherwise… … .”
Elio shrugged his shoulders.
The destructive power of the magical bullet was so great that it pierced through self-defense weapons.
“If it has enough destructive power to cause damage to the Count’s body, it must be Exitium. “It looks like the Tabula Magic Tower finally got their hands on Exitium.”
“So, Exitium will be supplied to the imperial army?”
“Not yet. Among the great nobles, there are many who oppose the mass production of Exitium. Because you never know when Exitium will head towards you. First of all, we will actively promote the dangers of relics from the Magic Era. “The production of Exitium is necessary for the safety of the empire.”
Fabian, who had been listening to the conversation between the two, cautiously intervened.
“If Exitium is supplied to the imperial army, the war will intensify further.”
Duke Killian Hale said with a grave expression.
“Winning or losing will be determined by how many artifacts the Southern Kingdom has. “If there are five relics that can be used, the war will be over before long.”
“It’s an odd question, but what happens to Exitium when the war ends?”
“We will begin the recovery process by unit. Considering the weapon’s destructive power, it must be managed thoroughly.”
“There must be a lot of things lost or missing in the process, right?”
“That’s why I’m opposed to the mass production of Exitium. “I don’t know what will happen once we send the front-line troops.”
Even if you try to track and manage inventory, it’s over once the magic gunner reports that he ‘shot a steel golem.’
In the current war situation, management of Exitium was virtually impossible.
Unlike Fabian, who immediately asked if he had any questions, Count Larva Omar, a great nobleman of the Kingdom of Baylem, was silent.
This is because it is uncomfortable to have a conversation with the head of a magic corps known as the strongest force in the empire when the future of the Northern Kingdom and Empire is unknown.
Duke Killian Hale did not ask Count Larva Omar any questions.
When the drinking party was over, Elio and his group returned to the tavern near the Stagecoach Association.
next day.
While Elio and his party were resting after breakfast, a person from the Stagecoach Association came to inform them that the stagecoach was scheduled to depart in an hour.
And 1 hour later.
As Elio and his party entered the stagecoach waiting room, Baron Howard Solon and his party approached.
When Elio glanced up, Baron Howard Solon broke his back.
“Count! Respect! It’s an honor to travel with you! Please take care of me in the future!”
Elio’s expression when he looked at him was grave.
It wasn’t really a surprise, seeing as he and Corvo’s magic army met last night.
“You said Baron Solon, right?”
“yes!”
“Unlike the Baron, my colleagues and I don’t like being the center of attention. So from now on, call us adventurers.”
“yes! “Adventurer!”
“Go before the other adventurers come.”
Elio waved his hand as if to get out of the way.
Baron Howard Solon, who was about to leave, spoke cautiously.
“Well, can I call all three of you adventurers?”
As the conversation got longer, Fabian who was next to me came forward.
“You can call this person Lord Lagoa, the person next to him is Lord Omar, and I can be called Lord Cloud.”
“It’s an odd question, but what happens to Exitium when the war ends?”
“We will begin the recovery process by unit. Considering the weapon’s destructive power, it must be managed thoroughly.”

Then Baron Howard Solon reached out to Fabian and shook his hand.
“As you may already know, I am Baron Howard Solon. I will leave it up to you.”
“I am Baron Fabian Cloud. What do you have to ask of me? “Anyway, the carriage will be well driven by the Stagecoach Association driver.”
Fabian pretended not to understand and drew a line.
Although his opponent blatantly pushed him away, Baron Howard Solon did not back down.
“I know you are going to the Abyss. Don’t they say two heads are better than one? Although we are lacking, it is still better than nothing. Please accept me as part of your group while we go to the Abyss.”
The eyes of Baron Howard Solon and his group all turned towards Count Elio Lagoa.
Elio nodded to Fabian.
Not because they needed help, but because they needed to be accepted for their own safety. This is because the people of the Southern Kingdom call the Great Forest ‘Tameion of the Tropics.’
Still, perhaps because they had become attached to each other by traveling together, they did not want to see a reiki practitioner whom they had met for the first time and a magic swordsman who had been kicked out of their family die.
