Episode 1282. Wave
Battalion’s commander’s barracks.
Marquis Peron Carlisle, who was sitting in a chair, pointed to the empty chair across from him and said.
“Sit down.”
“yes.”
Viscount Krano Vanek, commander of Battalion, carefully pulled out a chair and sat down.
“I heard it from His Highness the Crown Prince. He is from the Duchy of Latium?”
“yes.”
Marquis Peron Carlyle smiled bitterly at Viscount Crano Vanek’s short answer.
I can’t shake the feeling that Viscount Vanek is not good at human relationships.
If you are a subordinate, you should make various efforts to break the awkward atmosphere, but instead, you are doing it.
‘How did a person like this catch the eyes of His Highness the Crown Prince?’
When you think of the crown prince living surrounded by great nobles, it is not only surprising but also mysterious.
“Since when did you become acquainted with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Oh, there is no other meaning. “Your Majesty, the nobles around you all know, but you have never seen it.”
“I received a call from His Highness the Crown Prince two months ago.”
“Two months?”
Marquis Perron Carlisle looked at Viscount Vaneck with bewildered eyes.
However, Viscount Vanek only answered the question and kept his mouth shut.
It seems like he won’t answer until you ask him a question.
Suddenly, the crown prince’s words, ‘Don’t get too close’ came to mind.
‘No matter what, you need to know the basics.’
Gathering information and getting to know each other are different.
Marquis Peron Carlyle, who thought he needed to get to know the other person a little more, spoke again.
“What did you do before that?”
“I mainly received requests from the Magic Tower.”
“Which magic tower?”
“It is difficult to tell you anything related to the Magic Tower because we have taken an oath of secrecy.”
“Does His Highness the Crown Prince know?”
“yes.”
“Hmm.”
Marquis Peron Carlisle looked at Viscount Vaneck with ambiguous eyes.
It is not new for a fallen noble to help the magic tower.
But entrusting Exitium to such a baseless nobleman?
I couldn’t understand the crown prince’s choice even more.
Looking at Viscount Vanek’s face as if it were someone else’s business, I was secretly displeased.
‘I guess it wasn’t honorable for a knight to make an oath of secrecy with a wizard.’
Wizards will do anything to satisfy their intellectual curiosity.
If you cross the line too far, you become a warlock, but it is no exaggeration to say that ordinary wizards also live with a wall built between them and humanity.
How dare they call wizards snakes?
It would have been way too far over the line to even make an oath of secrecy with a wizard.
Marquis Peron Carlyle, who had brushed off his interest in Viscount Vaneck without any hesitation, stood up after making a few requests.
Abyss.
Frontier area: Ebrima Plain.
Around noon.
A lion suddenly lunged at Tain Lok from the side while he was walking.
At that moment, Tainrok naturally drew out his longsword and swung it without hesitation.
Big!
The lion, which had suffered a long cut on its side, screamed and turned its body as if it would attack again.
However, the tying lock was fast.
Rather, he approached the lion and stabbed its body with a long sword.
Hehe!
With a heavy scream, the lion fell to the side.
The lion, whose heart had been stabbed, no longer moved.
Tainerok, who had put away his longsword, walked back with a nonchalant expression on his face.
Merdev glanced at the lion with a lingering look on his face.
“Why but?”
“I was wondering what it would be like to take off the skin.”
“Do you have the strength to carry the leather on your back?”
“ah… … .”
Merdev shook off his regret at Tainok’s point.
I didn’t have a carriage, so I couldn’t carry a lion skin on my back.
“Do mercenaries take leather?”
“Of course. “I also eat meat.”
“Meat would be fine.”
Tain-rok glanced behind him, probably thinking about the meat.
But what is this?
Baron Howard Solon was clinging to him, peeling off the meat.
Looking at the atmosphere, it seemed like Count Elio Lagoa had ordered it.
Merdev and Tainrog did not move until Baron Solon finished slaughtering them.
Lunch that day was roasted lion meat and stew made with lion meat.
Nine people ate to their fill with the meat from one lion.
People raved that the fresh lion meat tasted better than the ingredients purchased at Tombstone.
“How are you feeling Lord Lagoa? Does it suit your taste?”
Elio nodded his head in response to Fabian’s question.
“Oh, it was okay. “It was chewy.”
“Shall we hunt some lions?”
“I don’t have time for that. “Let’s go and catch the things that attack us like before.”
“Do you have a lot of ingredients left?”
If there is a shortage of ingredients, they will immediately ask you to go lion hunting.
“Have you seen how little I take care of?”
“no.”
“Don’t worry, you can make a living in the Abyss for half a year.”
“ha! Sir Lagoa may be well-prepared, but the problem is that he is too good.”
Fabian could not let go of his obsession with lion hunting and blamed Elio.
“If it weren’t for my preparation, you would have starved to death a long time ago. “You can’t be thankful and you’re just being intellectual.”
“Of course, I appreciate it, but please think about local procurement in the future. You enjoyed the lion meat, right? “I get bitten because I eat the same food every day.”
“yea, I got it. You’re getting bitten, so I’ll take it out. “Eat local food.”
“no. I was so full that my words came out in vain. Please forgive me.”
Fabian could not stand it and immediately lowered his head.
It’s time for Elio and his group to get ready to move again.
A group of people slowly approached from the left.
Seven carriages and about thirty armed men and women. It is a medium-sized group of adventurers or mercenaries.
After a while, a carriage and about thirty men and women stopped in front of Elio and his group.
Soon, the man and woman in the lead approached Elio and his group.
“hello?”
A man in his forties spoke first to Elio and his group.
The corners of Fabian’s mouth went up when he simply said, ‘Hello?’ rather than introducing himself.
Even in the Abyss, it was polite to introduce yourself first when approaching someone in a place where safety was not guaranteed.
Fabian responded by stepping in front of him.
“hello.”
The man in his forties chuckled at Fabian’s immediate reaction.
But that’s it.
Tito, a man in his forties, had no desire to interact with a group that was on the verge of collapse.
“The number of monsters coming over Mount Petra has increased. “This is a precursor to a full-fledged wave, so it would be better to evacuate to the east or go to Exodo as soon as possible.”
“thank you. But don’t you avoid that one?”
Then Illuna, a woman in her twenties who came with Tito, smiled and answered.
“Our mercenary group came out to the Plains of Ebrima for a moment to catch monsters. “I received a request to exterminate monsters in the Kingdom of Adriatic.”
“Do you have such a request?”
“Hehe, I guess this is your first time in the Abyss?”
Fabian was a well-to-do knight, so he usually attracted attention from young ladies.
So, unlike Tito, who turned away without any regrets, Iluna continued her conversation with Fabian.
“yes.”
“We will take the monsters gathered in the mines of the Kingdom of Adriatic to the plains of Ebrima… … .”
At that moment, Tito reprimanded her.
“Iluna, you talk a lot.”
“ah… … .”
Illuna belatedly realized her mistake and kept her mouth shut.
Soon Tito and Iluna returned to the group.
Eventually, as the carriage and mercenary group moved away, Elio spoke to Fabian.
“The wave means that monsters are pouring out, right?”
“Yes, it seems that a lot of monsters have crossed over from the unexplored area to Mount Petra. It seems like a group of them approached the mines of the Kingdom of Adriatic, and that mercenary group lured the monsters to the Plains of Ebrima.”
“What about the people on the Plains of Ebrima?”
“I’m telling you to catch it.”
“Is that okay?”
As Fabian hesitated to answer, Merdev quietly intervened.
“It would be a shame if anyone found out, but… … . Anyway, the monsters pass through Mount Petra and advance to the Plains of Ebrima. “Ebrima Plain is the destination of monsters, so no one cares.”
“Anyway, I guess that mercenary group just wants me to not die?”
“Everything is like that here. Still, there are so many adventurers and mercenaries… … . “I can catch almost anything.”
“If the number is small, you can’t catch it.”
“Those people are fleeing to the east. From there, we organized a new meeting and advanced to the center again… … . “Repeat this until you die.”
“They live a hard life.”
“But you saw the gold lying all over the ground, right? It’s something you can’t even dream of in the outside world. “The opportunity to turn my life around is in the Abyss, so I can’t leave.”
“Those mercenaries will drop the monster on the plain and return to Mount Petra?”
“I guess so.”
“amazing.”
Elio stuck his tongue out at the mercenary group’s hair.
When Elio didn’t ask any more questions, Merdev and Tainok took the lead again.
Elio, who was walking quietly, suddenly spoke to Luna Mylus.
“Sister, never use divine power.”
“huh?”
“Even if someone gets hurt while fighting a monster, you must never use divine power. Just apply medicine and let it heal.”
“I will.”
“Even if I get a little hurt, just let it be. Because it will get better soon. “Okay?”
“Yes, I will definitely do that. don’t worry.”
Luna Mylus also knew the side effects of divine power and had no intention of using it.
Now I’m trying to keep my thoughts simple.
For some reason, it seems like transcendent intelligence is accelerating union with the goddess.
She wanted to stay by Elio’s side at least until he found Ushas Undra.
Elio and his party continued to advance toward the northwest without changing direction.
In the process, I met many adventurers and mercenaries who were taking refuge.
They said it was a wave, and it seemed like the entire Plain of Ebrima was swept away.
Most of the adventurers and mercenaries fleeing to the east were small in number, so they did not argue with Elio and his group.
There were only nine people in Elio’s group, but the atmosphere was unique.
Tainrog’s enormous size, Count Larva Omar’s wide-open physique that exceeds the average, and even the paladin Almet Harev’s difficult-to-approach prayers!
When I looked at those three people, my heart, which had been heated by the beautiful women, cooled down in an instant.
But that only worked for adventurers and mercenaries who were weak enough to take refuge.
“Stop!”
Three rugged-looking men blocked Elio and his group.
Elio and the others gathered in front of the three men one by one.
One of the men spoke with his chin firmly set.
“The wave has begun! This place is guarded by our Delicatalum mercenaries. Receive our protection until the demons are exterminated.”
As the man pretended to be an occupying force, Fabian took a step forward.
“What if we don’t receive the protection of your mercenary group?”
“We will detain you temporarily to ensure smooth extermination of monsters.”
“No, you’re not saying let’s join forces and fight in front of the Wave, but you’re detaining them? What kind of nonsense is that? Does your mercenary group have the right to detain adventurers?”
Then the man grinned, showing his yellow teeth.
“right? Don’t you know that in the Abyss, power is law? We will protect you, so you just have to be quiet and be protected. “There is no rejection.”
With the words, the man said, ‘Hwiik!’ He whistled, and about forty mercenaries surrounded Elio and his group.
Fabian muttered with an absurd expression on his face.
“Are you going to protect us? Are you planning to rob me?”
Then the man said with a shameless face.
“If you obey our instructions, we will protect you, but if you resist, we will sell you into slavery in the mines. Take your pick. Will you be protected? Would you like to become a slave?”
