25 – Succession formula

It’s dawn.

Even before the sun rose, the sky was still dark.

There were no clouds, so the stars were clearly visible. The weather looks good today too.

Siron separated the string from the necklace.

This friend, who is well used as an inventory substitute, has no special decorations and looks like a simple bead.

However, this is not just a bead, but a holy relic. I don’t remember the name of it because it is such a priceless item, but I have not forgotten that it has uses other than simply storing things.

In ‘Rebirth Sword God’, relics can be used according to each unique effect, but they can also be used to add their unique effects to the player’s character. For example, since this relic can be used as a substitute for inventory, it was expected that inventory slots would increase when dismantled and strengthened.

‘Dismantling and strengthening. Once separated, the important thing is what comes next… ‘

Siron looked at the tangled jewel and then sighed.

Disassembly is simple. All you have to do is separate the core, the jewel, which is the core of the relic. However, I was not sure about the important ‘reinforcement’.

Should we be glad that it’s not something we can’t guess at all? Siron decided to trust his intuition for now.

‘… … It won’t be a ride later.’

You can drink Encia’s lemonade, and tear Ophelia’s bracelet to increase your accuracy. There was only one conclusion to follow from that.

Siron, who had been looking at the jewel for a while, seemed to have made a decision, closed his eyes and put the jewel into his mouth.

… … gulp

I took a sip of water, rolled the gem with my tongue a few times, and swallowed it.

“Wow.”

I was worried that my throat would clog up and vomit, but fortunately, that was not the case.

‘No matter how many characters are full of death flags, dying like this is a bit over the line.’

Siron grinned and prepared to leave.

*

The three children who were to hold the succession ceremony got up on their own and came to the gate without anyone waking them up.

“Let’s do well together! Shiron oppa!”

“… … .”

Siriel, wearing light activewear, walked towards Siron with her back to him and greeted him.

Siriel was so preoccupied with talking to Lucia yesterday that she regretted not being able to say a few words with Siron.

In fact, my male cousin, who was two years older than me, was a bit difficult to approach. Siron looked very angry as he chewed the meat with a silent frown.

However, unlike yesterday, today’s theory feels a little less poisonous.

“okay. You too, cheer up.”

‘My brother. ‘It’s something I’ve never heard in my life.’

Siron looked at Siriel who greeted her brightly and answered. I never thought he would come and say hello first.

‘What happened to such a bright child for 10 years to become an enemy with Siron?’

It makes me wonder whether Siriel was such a bright child in the first place.

The killer whale Siriel was like a remote island.

Never giving anyone a chance to dig in, even when playing as Lucia, I remember having a hard time raising my liking.

“Shiron. Are you sick? Your complexion is pale.”

Lucia, who was by Siriel’s side, approached and said. The ponytail with the hair pulled back together suited her well. As if responding to Lucia’s question, Siriel looked at Chiron’s face.

Cold sweat broke out on his pale face.

“… … Aren’t you supposed to tell the adults?”

“Don’t say anything terrible. I was just nervous. “Let’s go to the main gate faster than that.”

However, Shiron dismissed their concerns and took the lead. Today is an important turning point called the succession ceremony.

Perhaps because it was the day of the succession ceremony, there was no one inside the mansion or on the walk to the front gate.

I hope so for a while. Arrived at the main gate.

Yuma and a few maids were standing there to guide the children.

“You came without fail.”

Yuma, wearing a black dress, looked somewhat unfamiliar. Unlike usual, he didn’t even smile kindly and looked even more emotionless and calm.

“Before we perform the ceremony, I have one thing to tell you.”

The one-horned sacred keeper Yuma, the general overseer of the succession ceremony, looked down at the children and said.

“You cannot wear weapons, accessories, or other enchanted items. “If you are wearing one, please give it to us.”

She said while looking at Siron in particular.

However, the necklace that had been hanging around Siron’s neck for the past few days was nowhere to be found. Shiron looked away from Yuma and shrugged his shoulders.

Lucia and Siron did not show anything, and Siriel held out the blue ribbon she had tied in her hair.

“Here you go.”

The maid wearing an eye patch next to Yuma politely accepted the ribbon. She looked at the ribbon for a moment and then opened her mouth to Yuma.

“Has confirmed.”

“then. “I will move.”

When Yuma winked, the maids at the castle gate opened the door.

Googoo googung.

The thin ice stuck to the seams falls to the floor, probably because of the frost at night. Eventually, the door opened completely.

Yuma leads the way

The children followed behind them.

The Lake of Beginnings, the site of the succession ceremony, was beyond the western ridge of Dawn.

*

“here is…”

Upon arriving at the lake, Lucia opened her eyes wide in surprise.

That would be too. The lake between the mountain ranges has not changed over the years, and it has evoked faded memories.

‘This is where I first met Yura.’

Lucia stopped and looked at the lake. The flow of the mountains surrounding the lake was the same as she knew.

‘I never thought this would be the place where the succession ceremony was held.’

Lucia gritted her teeth. Is it because I became a child? She mocked herself by saying that she had become more sensitive these days.

It all started from here.

Lucia looked at the lakeside in the distance. The vague memories became increasingly clearer.

“Sniff.”

In the distance, there is a child squatting by the lakeside and throwing stones. This is Kylie as a child. And the image of Yura approaching her and holding out his sword with a smiling face rose like a haze…

“This place.”

However, due to someone’s interference, the illusion quickly dissipated.

“Prien’s progenitor. “This is the place where Kylie received the holy sword from God’s messenger.”

“Wow!”

Siriel’s eyes lit up as if she was very happy to have actually been to the place in the story.

“Can I ask you a question?”

Lucia clenched her fists and raised her arms.

“… … When you say a messenger from God, do you mean an angel?”

“yes. That’s right. Founder Kylie received a ‘revelation’ here. And that legacy has been passed down to Prien throughout the ages. “This is why succession ceremonies have been held here for the past 500 years.”

“… … okay.”

“Then, let me explain the succession ceremony.”

Yuma said, looking back at the children.

“It is easy to pass or not. You will cross that lake sequentially from now on.”

Yuma turned around and pointed at the frozen lake.

The lake, where ice grains glisten in the morning sunlight, filled my field of vision, and beyond the lake, I could see a group of people.

Even though it was quite far away, the weather was good, so I could see the figures well.

Hugo, Johann, and Berta, who stand out in particular, are standing next to each other.

Those lined up in a row are all of the maids who were not seen in the mansion.

They are all observers of the succession ceremony.

Was it then Siriel raised a hand.

“I have a question for you.”

“Please speak.”

“Is it okay to simply cross over?”

Yuma nodded.

“That’s right. Thick ice fills the lake, but mysteriously, only those with the right qualities can cross the lake.”

“What happens to those who don’t make it across?”

“You will be disqualified from running for the position of head of the family. But don’t worry. Even if the ice breaks and sinks to the bottom of the lake, there will be no major problems.”

Yuma said while looking at Shiron.

Shiron shook his head towards Yuma.

“All we have to do is use magic to bring it to land. “Then we have to decide the order.”

“Can I cross first?”

Lucia said, coming forward.

Next, I glanced at Shiron behind me.

“You do it first.”

“… … thank you.”

After receiving Siron’s concession, Lucia took a deep breath.

Yuma moved out of Lucia’s way.

Lucia walked without hesitation to the sandy beach and stepped on the ice of the lake.

Lucia, fully bearing her weight, moved forward at a rapid pace.

‘… … Is this really it?’

It was… easier than I thought.

When they reached the halfway point of the lake, Lucia bent one knee and tapped the ice with her hand.

Thump-thump-

I put my strength in my hand and knocked on it.

Kagagak-

I pulled the ice out with my finger and tried to draw it, but the ice was so thick that no water came out.

‘Well, there’s all this… There was nothing like this in the old days.’

The lake in my memory looked the same, but was completely different.

500 years ago, villages near the lake made a living by breaking ice and catching fish. However, on our way here, we could not find any traces of human life.

Lucia shook her hands and got up and crossed the lake.

Lucia arrived safely and was welcomed by Hugo and the maid.

“You have great courage. “Knocking on the lake without crossing it in the middle.”

Hugo smiled with satisfaction and patted Lucia’s shoulder.

“It was nothing. what”

Lucia touched her cheek with both hands. Being praised for barely crossing a lake… I was ashamed to think I was being treated like a child.

‘Is Siriel next?’

Lucia turned around and looked at the spot she had crossed over.

I saw Siriel sneaking across the distance.

After a while.

After crossing the lake, Siriel collapsed into her seat as soon as she came ashore.

“Ah, I got scolded for being nervous.”

“Cyriel did a good job too. Then, now, is only Shiron left?”

“… … Poetry.”

“You seem unwell since this morning.”

Siriel shook the sand off her pants and stood next to Lucia.

The three saw Siron standing in the distance.

Siron walked.

and.

A splash of water rose and Siron disappeared.
