9 The Dream of the Stars (3)

“ What is that?”

Inside the magic wagon that crosses the inside of the Imperial Castle.

The cool-looking wizard who was riding inside asked the driver who was driving the horse-drawn carriage looking at the knights rushing towards the main gate of the castle.

“ It seems that there is someone trying to break in from the front door, so they are going to stop it.”

“ Intrusion? You want to break in through the front door?”

A young and absurd light in the eyes of a wizard.

It’s the first time I’ve heard of an invasion like that.

“ Yes.”

“ How many?”

“… … One.”

At the knight’s answer, the young absurd light in the wizard’s eyes grew stronger.

Knights of the Imperial Castle generally have a stronger force than the outside knights.

It was strange that even though the knights of such an imperial castle were flocking to each other like that, the situation had not yet come to an end.

“ She is a woman in her 20s with red eyes, but she seems to be having a hard time dealing with it because she has better skills than I thought.”

“ She is a woman with red eyes… … Are there any other special features?”

“ Unfortunately, there have been no fatalities yet. and… … It is said that the magic that a woman uses is very unique.”

“ How is it unique?”

“ I haven’t seen it myself, so I don’t know for sure, but it treats blood as a medium, and there are things like animal mouths around… … .”

“… … Blood magic!”

Hearing the knight’s words, the wizard’s eyes shone sharply.

“ More details… … No, I will go there myself.”

“ I see. I will meet you at the front door.”

A knight who drives the wheel of a horsepower car according to the wizard’s words.

“ How many wizards use blood magic in this capital city right now… … . Hopefully we can get a clue about the sabbatical night.”

The magician quietly murmured in the horse-drawn carriage heading towards the main gate of the Imperial Castle.

The wizard’s name is Rgan Ursula.

He was one of the henchmen of the three princes, the owner of Hyukseonggung.

* * *

After the succession ceremony, the royal family will go through two procedures at the Baekseong Palace before starting their full-fledged activities.

One was an interview with the emperor that Zion had held a while ago.

And the other was to visit ‘The Dream of the Stars’.

Stars dream.

It was a secret warehouse that was created at the same time as the imperial castle was built.

This is a place where only the best treasures that the imperial family has been collecting for hundreds of years from the first emperor to the present are gathered.

It exists somewhere underground of the People’s Palace and it was also known as a place that no one other than Agnes’ direct blood relatives could enter.

Direct blood relatives who passed the succession ceremony were able to go out with one item they liked in ‘Dream of the Stars’.

Zion was also heading to the ‘Dream of the Stars’ to exercise that right.

“ From here on, you have to go alone. Please make a good choice.”

Roniere, the knight who guided Zion right in front of the door leading to the basement of the People’s Palace, bowed his head politely and stepped aside.

Shion nodded at him and pushed the door.

Chunkyung.

Unlike the emperor’s bedroom, there were no knights guarding the door to the basement.

No, it didn’t have to exist.

‘ It’s because you can’t enter the basement of the People’s Palace unless you’re the blood of Agnes anyway.’

As soon as you pass through the door and go down to the basement, a thick fog fills in.

This fog was not a normal fog, but a fog of supernatural powers made with high-level magic and sorcery.

This fog had the effect of completely paralyzing people’s senses.

Therefore, without the blood of Agnes, even the most sensible person could not distinguish the object right in front of him.

‘ Is this?’

As soon as she took a few steps through the mist, Zion’s eyes saw the stars glimmering softly from the ceiling.

Like the Milky Way, a long road of stars.

Perhaps if you follow these stars, you will arrive at the ‘Dream of the Stars’.

‘… … Let’s deal with that later.’

Sion, who was looking in a completely different direction from the place where the path of the stars continued for a while, remembered what would happen in the future at Hwangseong, and moved slowly.

How far did you travel along the way?

A huge stone gate was blocking Zion’s eyes.

A stone gate engraved with the sun, moon, and countless stars revolving around them.

Knock.

Without hesitation, Shion dropped a drop of his own blood on such a stone gate.

That moment.

Ded Ded Ded Dude!

The sun and moon of the stone gate filled with the blood of Zion began to shine brightly, and the door began to split in two.

And there are countless treasures beyond that.

It was a star’s dream.

Just like that, Zion had just crossed the door and entered the warehouse.

“ Come on!”

In Shion’s ears, a cheerful voice that did not fit the situation at all was heard.

Shion’s eyes turned to the side where the voice was heard, and a girl with a short stature barely touching her waist came in.

“ Welcome to the dream of the stars!”

A girl with transparent light blue hair and blue eyes.

“ My name is Veila, the warehouse keeper here! Are you right, Prince Zion Agnes?”

“ Yes.”

Knowing that there was already a warehouse keeper, Shion looked at the girl without panicking and nodded.

You might wonder how such a young girl could be a warehouse keeper here, but she wasn’t human in the first place.

A homunculus created by dragon magic.

Therefore, unlike its appearance, it had lived for hundreds of years and was able to stay in this place where only the Agnes clan could enter.

“ First of all, congratulations on your succession ceremony! Is this the first time you’ve been to a star’s dream?”

Since it’s been a long time since I’ve met someone in a long time, Veila, who asked in a more youthful voice as if she was feeling up, went round and round in front of Sion and continued.

“ This is the best treasure trove in the world, where there are treasures beyond what Prince Zion thought! Even those with the lowest value can easily afford a couple of castles!”

With those words, Veila pointed to the trinkets that piled up like a mountain and rolled around the floor of the warehouse.

And there was no lie in her words.

“ From here, Prince Zion can go out with only one weapon, trinkets, or anything else! All of the other heirs who have come here have chosen their weapons, but will the prince choose a weapon as well?”

“ Yeah, but it’s not all here, is it?”

In answer to that, Shion, who looked around, asked her.

The weapons scattered here were also great enough to cause great chaos if even one of them went out into the world.

The level of weapons that existed in the Star Dreams that Zion had read in the Chronicles was by no means like this.

“ Of course not! We’ve sorted out the more awesome weapons inside! By the way… … .”

Beila looked at Zion, blurring her words.

“ The things inside are weapons that will be talked about forever, from the past to the present and to the future, each with myths and legends! So the weapon chooses its owner! That’s why if you don’t choose a weapon, you can’t use it no matter how much you like it!”

No, it wasn’t just unusable.

If you tried to use a weapon without being chosen, you could get hurt or even lose your life.

“ Are you still going inside?”

Veila asks Zion again.

Shion had noticed why Veila was asking this.

‘ You must think that you will not be chosen by the weapons.’

I just had to think like that.

That’s because the criteria for selecting the owner of the weapons inside were very strict.

‘ Among the successive emperors, there were some who were not chosen.’

He must have thought that Zion himself was not yet at that level.

However, Zion already had a weapon in mind before he came to the dream of the stars.

Celestial Sword Rigveda.

A myth-level weapon that only exists in this secret warehouse, called the ‘Dream of the Stars’ because the treasures of heaven and earth are spread out like stars.

A new sword that has the origins of causing the gods of the sky to fall to the ground in the past.

“ Guide me.”

Even if it wasn’t the sword, Shion looked at Veila and opened her mouth to take one of the other myth-level weapons.

There was no anxiety in Sion that he would not be chosen by a weapon.

Because Shion was always the one who made the choice, not the one who was always chosen.

“ Everyone has their own weapon! Even if it’s not a legendary weapon, if it’s matched against each other, more synergy… … .”

“ I don’t like to say it twice.”

“… … I know. Even if I’m not chosen, I don’t know!”

With that said, Bayla let out a sigh and waved her fingers once.

Whoa!

The space opened and a new entrance appeared.

The warehouse keeper pushes himself into the entrance first as if to follow him.

A feast of great weapons unfolded immediately in the eyes of Shion who followed him.

The weapons and armor were neatly displayed one by one on both walls, unlike the previous weapons that were laid out haphazardly.

Shion felt the energy emanating from those weapons press hard on her body.

“ Is that great? Even if only one of these is revealed to the world, there will be a wind of blood! Maybe there will be a war! These are things the prince cannot handle yet! So even now… … .”

‘ He’s there.’ Shion’s eyes shone as she skimmed through the warehouse, passing over the words of Veila, who was babbling beside her.

Among the numerous weapons on display, the three weapons are placed at the top.

Hafnoth, the Palace of Ages.

Gravity Spear Agnus.

and… … Celestial Sword Rigveda.

They were myth-level weapons.

Sion moved towards Rigveda, which was hung in the center.

Whoa!

Did he notice that he was coming to pick himself?

The blade of the heavenly sword, which resembles a clear blue sky, begins to vibrate slightly.

“ Huh? Why is Rigveda… … .”

For the first time in her life, Veila murmured while looking at Rigveda, forgetting to extend her words.

In the meantime, Shion, who reached just in front of the Celestial Sword, stretched out his hand towards the sword.

Whoa!

A vibration that grew stronger and stronger as if to welcome him.

at that time.

stand tall.

Shion’s hand, which was about to grab Rigveda’s handle, stopped.

“… … uh?”

Along with him, a blank voice came out of Zion’s mouth.

Such Shion’s eyes were not looking at the heavenly sword, but at something behind it.

knife.

It was a sword.

A half-silk sword wrapped in darkness so deep that you wouldn’t even notice it if you hadn’t come close.

From the sword to the handle.

It was ominously pinned to the floor, absorbing all the light that existed around it.

Shion knew what that sword was.

No, I couldn’t know.

Annihilation Light Sword Iklaxia.

Because it was a weapon used by the emperor of the original world, not here.

“ How was that… … .”

I couldn’t see where the half of the sword went, but it was definitely Iklaxia.

Why the hell is his sword in the world in this novel?

bum bum, bum bum.

Zion approaches Eclaxia as if possessed.

“ Hey, that black! No way, Prince! This is the sword used by the Eternal Emperor, the first emperor of the Black Empire! I didn’t put it down to give it to someone!”

Urgency lingered in Veila’s eyes as she alternately stared at Zion and the extinct light sword.

Why the hell is that sword stuck there?

It was also because it was a monumental sword used by the first emperor and not something that was literally left to give to someone.

The very existence of that black sword was too dangerous.

Among the imperial families who had been here for hundreds of years, there were a few who had their eyes on that sword, and they all disappeared as soon as they touched the sword.

If you’re lucky, part of the body.

All if you’re unlucky.

A sword that has never chosen a master since the first emperor.

That’s why I hid it out of sight, but I couldn’t figure out how it was there.

“ Why… … .”

In the meantime, Shion had already walked right in front of Iclaxia and reached out towards the handle of the sword.

“ Woah, it’s dangerous!”

At that moment, Veila hurriedly stretched out her hand toward Zion, violating the prohibition against touching Agnes’ blood relatives.

next moment.

she could see

An eerie black light erupted from Iclaxia, the extinct light sword.

————-!

The sight of swallowing up Prince Zion’s whole body in an instant.
