Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1254
Only Noblemtl
1254 times. It’s just one failure
A swordsman who has reached the highest level is called a Grand Master, and a wizard is called Magnum Ops.
Apart from that, there is a title that refers to a magic engineer who has reached the highest level.
That is an Arch Mage.
Magic engineering combines technology with magic, and being good at magic alone does not mean you can become an Arch Mage.
That is why there is only one Arch Mage in the entire Magic Tower so far.
Londinium Empire.
Capital Petropolis.
Tabula Magic Tower.
Magical Engineering Research Institute.
Two men sat facing each other at a window seat bathed in a red sunset.
He is the 5th Circle Mage, Count Kirby Crazer, head of the Magic Engineering Research Institute, and an elderly man.
The old man, Arch Mage Megistus, continued speaking with a grave expression.
“… … And early this morning, Goliath’s autonomous maneuvering was successful in Pria’s production room. Replacing beasts with beasts was effective. We are currently producing Goliath No. 2 with a different number. “As long as there are no incidents, I think autonomous operation will go smoothly.”
Unlike Megistus, Count Carby Crazer could not contain his excitement.
“Really? Have you confirmed autonomous maneuvering?”
“We have confirmed that Goliath operates according to command more than 10 times. “We are faithfully following instructions without opposition or resistance.”
“If that is true, our Tabula Magic Tower will rise tall as the best magic tower in the empire, no, on the continent.”
“We need to confirm our combat capabilities, but to do so, we need imperial approval.”
“Are you saying we should send it to the southern front?”
“Shouldn’t we see if we can stand up to the Southern Kingdom’s steel golem?”
“hmm. I understand. I will discuss the matter with the tower owner and deal with it. “How long does it take to make one Goliath?”
“Even if we put all the manpower into it, it would take 15 days. “Excluding securing the personnel, only the production of the aircraft.”
“You mean two per month?”
“Yes, provided that water is supplied on time.”
“I understand. Don’t worry about securing the prisoners. “Now that we have confirmed the location of the Suin village, we will be able to provide a stable supply without any disruption.”
“I feel sorry for the prisoner child who was close to Eva Meles. If Goliath’s secret had leaked out through that child… … “Tabula Magic Tower may be in danger of being shut down.”
“It’s been quiet so far. Is there anything going on?”
“When Goliath appears in the world… … There will be lots of speculation about it. “What do you think will happen then when Eva Meles’ story breaks?”
“… … .”
Count Carby Crazer could not say anything.
Eva Meles was killed and her mouth sealed, but Emily, who was close to her, returned to the beastmen.
Although the beastmen are treated as inferior to humans, they are legally human.
If it were revealed that such a human soul had been put into Goliath, the wizards of Tabula Tower would be treated as warlocks.
An incident of that magnitude would be difficult for even the imperial family to support.
No, the imperial family, anxious to please the citizens of the empire, will take the lead in tearing down the Tabula Magic Tower.
The voice of Megistus was heard in the worried ear of Count Kavi Krazer.
“We need to get rid of the prisoner child.”
“If Count Elio Lagoa finds out, I won’t stay quiet.”
“Didn’t the warden and tower owner try to get rid of Count Lagoa anyway?”
“We attempted to assassinate him with Exitium, but failed.”
“It’s just one failure. “You said you only used one foot?”
“… … .”
“If one doesn’t work, two, and if two doesn’t work, three, four…” … Just pour Excitium on it until it dies. Unless he is a god, he will not escape death in the end.”
“I will discuss that matter with the tower owner.”
“You said you’re heading to the Abyss? “The criminals of Tomstone will do anything to each other if you give them just one gold.”
Tomstone is a city of adventurers created naturally at the entrance to the Abyss.
It may be said to be a city of adventurers, but in reality, it was a crime city teeming with all kinds of criminals.
What’s more, the city’s name is Tombstone.
The reason Tomston became a city of criminals was because there was no organization in charge of security in Tomston.
The great forest is an unexplored land.
Naturally, the control of the empire or kingdom did not reach Tomstone in the center of the forest.
It is often said that there are no three trees in a major forest.
These are the king, the lord, and the police force.
Because of this situation, criminals from all over the continent flocked to Tomstone.
Of course, there were vigilantes in Tomston, but the criminal organizations were stronger than the vigilantes.
As a result, dozens of people were dying every day, befitting the city’s name, Monument.
In Tomston, it didn’t cost even a silver to kill a contract killer.
So, there would be people lining up who would kill you if you gave them one gold.
Count Carby Crazer did not give a definite answer.
Assassination of Count Elio Lagoa is different from killing a beastman child.
It is a matter of the survival of the Tabula Magic Tower and is not something you can decide on your own.
In the end, he repeated the same sound.
“I will discuss it with the tower owner.”
Megistus looked at the count with frustrated eyes, but did not push him further.
Because if you want to keep Goliath’s secret, you will eventually do so.

Southern Adriatic Kingdom.
Elio and his party’s stagecoach left Cruli and entered the Adriatic Kingdom ten days later.
The carriage traveled another day from the Adriatic Kingdom and arrived at its final destination, Peromuros.
Peromuros was noticeably different from other cities I had seen so far.
The city was surrounded by a wall made of steel.
An exclamation flowed from Elio’s lips as he looked at the steel wall outside the window.
“Wow! Look at the walls. “Is there any iron left?”
“That’s right. “I don’t think they will believe me if I go back to the North and tell them.”
As the northern nobles clicked their tongues, Baron Howard Solon intervened from the third class seat.
“I heard that the invasion of demons and demons was so severe that they built a wall of steel.”
Then Fabian immediately refuted.
“no way! I wonder if it suffered as much as the Glaches fortress in the north. The Glaches fortress was also made of stone, but the steel was very strong. Isn’t that right? Lord Lagoa?”
Elio, who fought the demons in Glaches, shook his head.
From a geopolitical perspective, Glaches was more exposed to risk than Peromuros.
“It’s true that Glaches added more.”
Baron Howard Solon looked like he had a lot to say, but he didn’t open his mouth.
Peromuros was a city so dangerous that it was known throughout the empire.
There is a saying, ‘If there is a tameon in the north, there is a great forest in the south.’
Peromuros in the Adriatic Kingdom is a place adjacent to a great forest, and demonic beasts still haunt it.
It can be said to be a more dangerous area than the northern part, where the number of demons has plummeted since the scutum (ice wall) was built.
Of course, knights from the North believe that Hirhera is the most dangerous place in the world.
After a brief inspection, the stagecoach entered the steel wall.
The stagecoach stopped in front of the Stagecoach Transportation Association building in the center of the city.
The transportation manager and guards lined up in front of Elio and his group’s carriage.
Now that we have arrived at our final destination, we want to say goodbye.
People passing by glanced at the guards at the rarely seen sight.
When Elio and his group got off the carriage, the transportation manager, Line Hyde, rushed over and bowed.
“dismissal! It is an honor to serve you. Please call me when you return to the Empire. “At that time, I will serve you with all my might.”
“Thank you for your hard work.”
Elio did not dismiss the transportation manager who came to say hello because he was bothered.
This is because anyone who knows their identity has no choice but to do that.
It’s burdensome to be treated well, but what can you do? If that’s your position, you have no choice but to accept it.
At that time, two luxurious carriages approached.
This is a carriage used by priests and paladins of Shastra Parakti.
After seeing the priests’ carriage, the transport director and guards quietly entered the Stagecoach Association’s offices.
If I stayed, I would only be a bridesmaid, so I left on my own.
The temple carriage stopped in the empty spot where the stagecoach had left.
Soon after, Hamish and Sisht got off the carriage and approached Elio.
Hamish said, pointing to the temple chariot.
“How about you come with us to the temple of Ishika?”
At her suggestion, Elio took a quick look inside the carriage.
Like a stagecoach, it seats six people, so three more people seemed to have no problem riding it.
“Is it far from here?”
“From here, we have to go into the main forest for another half a day. “The distance is long, but since this is your first time traveling, it would be better for you to move with us.”
Elio was delighted to hear the word “Great Forest.”
“I think Ishika’s temple is close to the Great Forest?”
“That’s why people left Ishka. “Because the appearance of demons and monsters is frequent.”
“Is that still the case?”
“Did you know that in ancient times, demonic beasts and monsters from the central part of the continent moved to the north and the great forest? According to ancient history, they settled in Tameion and the Great Forest respectively. Tameion is blocked by a scutum (ice wall), but there is nothing between the Great Forest and the Southern Kingdom.”
“her! really? “How did the people of the Southern Kingdom live?”
“The main forest served as the scutum. “The great forest is the best place for demonic beasts and monsters, so there was no reason for them to advance into the human realm.”
“ah! So, are you saying that the influx of monsters was blocked by the ice wall in the north and the great forest in the south?”
“you’re right. “You could say it’s the mysterious providence of Manaptras.”
“But since there are no walls in the great forest, monsters and beasts could come over, right?”
Baron Howard Solon, who had been standing quietly in the back, quietly intervened.
“That’s why cities like Peromuros were created, surrounded by steel walls.”
Elio glanced back at Baron Solon.
If that is true, Peromuros was a more dangerous place than northern Glaches, or perhaps even Hirhera.
This is because the northern ice wall is a ‘wall’, but the main forest is just a ‘dense forest’.
Suddenly Elio asked Hamish.
“Is there a reason why the demonic beasts and monsters from the Great Forest do not come over to the Southern Kingdom?”
“They say it’s because humans don’t have magical powers. The bodies of monsters and monsters contain magical power, but humans only have a body. “If possible, it would be much better for the beast or monster to take magical power as well, right?”
“ah… … .”
“There are two cases where a demonic beast or monster leaves the great forest. “Either they got sick and hunting in the forest became difficult, or they couldn’t forget the taste of human meat.”
“Hearing what you say, I think that the Great Forest is also a mysterious area.”
“It is the providence of Mana Prass.”
“Can a priest of Shastra Parakti praise Manaptras?”
“Shastra Parakti and Mana Prathras are not strangers. “Then, shall we go together to the forgotten temple of Ishika?”
Elio nodded to Hamish’s repeated recommendations.
It’s not just because I don’t know the way, but because I don’t want to walk half a day in this heat.
The temple chariot carrying Elio and his party left Peromuros, which was surrounded by steel walls.
As the area borders a major forest, the road – with trees growing on both sides – was dark even in broad daylight.
‘Yah! It’s the perfect terrain for bandits to make a living.’
Elio looked out the window with eyes filled with sentimentality.
Old memories of hiding in places like that and eating the top of the top came to mind one by one.
Fabian seemed to have similar thoughts and said something.
“It’s easy to understand why the mercenaries changed. Looks good for robbery. “Hey, you two bastards.”
Elio, feeling annoyed that the thief was going numb, quickly changed his mind.
“I should say it’s nice because it’s cool now that there’s shade. “Is that all you have in your head?”
