She is not a strategist or tactician. She is neither a warrior nor a wizard. She was recognized for her position as a god and rose to the high position of Silver Guardian. However, what Serellain mainly did during that time was comprehensive management within the Silver Sage, that is, paperwork.
If I had to figure out and summarize a thousand pages of reports in 10 minutes, I would be able to do it, but if I had to deal with a thousand soldiers, I wouldn’t know anything other than shouting, ‘All troops forward!’
“I guess I should leave it to the experts.”
Snapping her fingers, she shouted out a simple control code.
“Summon local space. Guardian Vashtal.”
A blue portal appeared in the corner of the control room, and a solemn looking man in his 60s appeared. The current emperor of the Holy Vashtalon Empire was Rarefall Prime Vashtalon I.
“Did you call me, Sister Sereline?”
“Welcome, Rarefall.”
King Rarefall I, who had pale white hair, was giving the pale young Serellaine the title of sister. Sereline accepts it naturally and treats her like a younger brother.
I couldn’t help it. If you think about it, Serellain is almost 20 years older than her, and she was the one who took care of Rarefall since he was a baby, and she had just put Sayer in her body and became the guardian of silver.
Although she became the guardian of silver, Serellaine was originally just one of the many test subjects floating in the water tank. Just because she suddenly received her great status didn’t make a dull girl a wise woman, so her former guardian of silver and her Imperial Emperor, Gordan III, disguised her as a member of her imperial family. After fabricating her identity as a distant collateral royal family member, she planned to educate her with the knowledge and wisdom befitting a guardian of silver.
Serellaine, who became a collateral descendant of the royal family, found the young Rarefall especially cute at the time. It was his nature to like babies, and there was also the reason that young Rarefall was the only person he could treat with peace of mind in a world that had suddenly changed.
Young Rarefall also followed her like a real older sister. Due to the nature of her royal family, her parents treated Rare Paul in a solemn manner, no matter how young she was, and her servants and maids never lost their politeness in front of the prince. Only Serellain faced Rarefall without hesitation like her siblings in her hometown.
When a child is as big as the prince of an empire, he loves it, but when he beats it, he loves it to his heart’s content. Only she, like Gordan III, the guardian of her silver, can do this. She judged that it was not bad for a child’s education, so the emperor acquiesced.
Later, when Rarefall grew up and inherited the throne and the position of guardian of silver, he treated Serellaine, who had a relatively low status, with low regard, but after she became the great ‘right hand of God’, he was treated with respect again.
“It’s my sister… … It reminds me of the old days. “Isn’t Rarefall awkward?”
“Hehe, to be honest, I’m more comfortable this way too.”
Even if you are the emperor of the world’s most powerful empire, it is difficult to establish authority in front of someone who used to change your diapers and clean up your poop.
‘And you’ve always been prone to showing off your age when you get on your nerves, so what are you doing now?’
King Rarefall I looked at the control room video while grumbling so as not to be noticed. He frowned as he looked at Eun’s smashed collaborators.
“Hmm, you lost precious people, Sister Sereline.”
“Yeah, I thought that would be enough, but it wasn’t. “The heretics were stronger than expected.”
Rarefall’s brow furrowed even more as he looked at Serellaine who responded calmly.
Their deaths were not something to be accepted so calmly. They are all among the continent’s leading Auror users and precious among Silver’s collaborators.
Of course, Sereline probably didn’t expect defeat and sent them away like they were thrown away stones.
‘Otherwise I wouldn’t have given you that precious ancient combat suit.’
They made such a fuss about leaking an adamandril suit, and even though Sayer’s permission was not given, it can be said that they provided the best support by handing it to everyone to change into several times.
“Still, it’s a shame. “It would have been much more efficient if, rather than sending them out separately, they had been placed underground and linked with the defense system to fight.”
Why bother having a battle above ground while leaving the underground part of the Sayre Temple, where there is a defense system armed with all kinds of ancient items,? Thanks to this, those precious people gave up their lives in vain.
This time, Serellain was impressed by Rarefall’s subtle criticism.
“Then they will set their dirty mud feet on the sanctuary?”
Immediately, Rarefall changed its attitude.
“Well, I see. “Then I guess there’s nothing we can do.”
I hadn’t thought of Lairfall before, but the above-ground and underground areas of Sayre Temple have completely different meanings.
The splendid temple on earth is a structure built by humans to praise the gods, created by the sages of the past using ancient objects. Although it is a prestigious and sacred area, it is clearly a space for humanity.
On the other hand, the basement is a transcendent place handed down from ancient times. It is a sanctuary in the true sense that mankind should not dare to touch, and the mere act of heretics touching there is already the most unholy scriptures.
“But in the end, we couldn’t deal with them on the ground. “I hope Sayer doesn’t get too angry.”
Serellaine trembled as she watched the group of heretics split into three and run through the Sayre Temple. Rare Paul nodded her head and walked over to the control desk.
“I understand the situation. “I’ll take charge from now on.”
As you quickly operate the control desk, all kinds of information about the current situation pops up through the video. It was a fast-paced video, but Rarefall calmly accepted it all.
“The heretic sage, Carol. He’s definitely a great guy, but… … .”
An old man in his 60s smiles meaningfully, his brain working at full capacity.
“The luggage doesn’t fall that much.”
In addition to being the Guardian of Silver, he is the Emperor of the Holy Vashtalon Empire. And the empire never favors the incompetent.
Even the owner of the throne was no exception to this. The throne of an empire can only be maintained if one possesses top-notch skills in various aspects such as strategy, tactics, politics, society, culture, and economics.
As a ‘strategist’, Rarefall grasped and reviewed all current information. And he came up with the best solution and put it into reality.
Orders are issued throughout Sayre Temple. The defense system that moved automatically turns on and reveals its teeth in earnest.
Serellaine, who was watching, clapped her hands.
“As expected, Rarefall is good at this kind of thing?”
In an instant, Sayre Temple Underground became a formidable fortress with impenetrable walls that not even a rat could attack. It was a world of difference from when Serellane was touching it.
The old man confidently moved his fingers on the desk.
“Okay then, shall we move? “Hehehehe.”
Chapter 78
One
Four people were quickly running through the inside of the destroyed temple. The scattered Leppenhardt party, among them, were Atilka, Russ, Tashid, and Siris.
Quickly climbing over the debris of the building that collapsed due to Meteor, the four entered a large space connected to a gray passage.
“I guess it’s here.”
Atilka nodded while comparing the map and space. Russ clicked her tongue.
“I finally found it. “The map is very poor, Won.”
The map they received of Sayre Temple’s interior had blank spaces everywhere. This was because the information about Tesron that Reppenhardt obtained from Dream Dive was very unreliable.
Clearly Tethron tried to convey as much information as possible to Leffenhardt. However, no matter how much he acquired Repenhardt’s body and walked the path of a wizard, he was originally a warrior, and among them, Jim Unbreakable had a reputation for being particularly ignorant. Although he worked hard to gather information, he couldn’t quite organize it.
This was the reason why Leffenhardt had to find a way down from the above-ground part of Sayre Temple to the basement. He clearly knew his location. He also knew where the passage leading underground was located. However, I don’t know the way to the underground passage from my current location.
Because it was like this, Atilca and the others had to spend a considerable amount of time to get here.
“It’s too bad the enemy didn’t show up in the middle, otherwise it would have taken longer.”
Siris listened to Atilka’s muttering to herself.
“Prime Minister Karl said the same thing. If Sayer didn’t step forward, he probably wouldn’t have deployed troops on the ground. Now that I think about it, Mr. Reppenhardt was wrong again?”
Once Sayer moved his subordinates, Leffenhardt expected that defense forces would be positioned sequentially both above ground and underground. However, Karl again expressed an opposing opinion.
-If the information from Sayre Temple is true, that won’t happen. We’ll lay some groundwork on the ground to gauge our strength, but when it’s been defeated, there’s no reason to deploy troops in an unfavorable location. If it were me, I would focus my efforts on the easier-to-defend underground areas and block the intrusion routes.

Even though the reason was wrong – Serellaine just didn’t want Repenhardt and the others entering the sacred underground – other than that, it could be said that she had guessed correctly. Thanks to this, Atilka and his party did not encounter any resistance while traveling here.
“Anyway, when the two of you have different opinions, your opinion has never been correct?”
Russ joked and pulled out the illuminator.
“Then shall we open the door?”
“I beg you, Lord Russ.”
Atilca said, pointing to a large metal door located inside the space.
That huge door leading to the basement looked ordinary on the outside, but it was made of true iron adamantium and true gold eldril alloy and had incredible strength. If the door was just incredibly strong, there would be a way to break through the wall, but since the wall is also made of the same material and is made of a sliding door by magic, even the method of breaking and tearing off the parts between the door and the wall does not work.
“I don’t know if I can break it if it’s a bright light, but I guess I should save my strength as much as possible.”
Following Atilka’s gesture, Russ stood in front of the door and took a step forward. She breathes calmly and brings her fingers to the hilt.
“Whoa… … .”
His secret technique, the empty sword Infinity, can cut down everything that exists in the world. In front of this technology, the difference in strength between Jingeum Eldrill and Egg Pudding is completely meaningless. Of course, in return, you will consume a huge amount of Auror, so it is not a wise decision to use that skill at this point when you do not know what kind of enemy you will face in the future.
“There’s no need to use Infiniti.”
Russ extended his spatial sword.
“Sword in the air, Horizon!”
The Blade Auror jumped through space.
The door was fine. There wasn’t a single crack.
But the door opened.
“let’s go.”
As Russ activates the reiki movement with a hand gesture, the huge door slides open from side to side. The door was still the same, but the latch that locked it was unlocked.
What Russ had just cut down was not this ignorantly solid door. It was the control system for this door.
The door may have been made strong with all kinds of magical metals applied, but there is no need to make the control system that opens and closes it that way. Because it’s on the inside of the door anyway, I can’t reach it. However, the empty sword can reach there too.
“But really, if you just roughly break it like you said, the lock will be unlocked? “Isn’t it normal for a lock to be broken to remain locked?”
The person who answered Russ’ question was Siris, who had now reached a fairly high level of magic.
“It’s about a door with an ordinary lock, and this is from the Silver Age. Automation, unmanned. “If the system breaks down, people may become trapped, so it is common sense to take that into account and create a structure that opens on its own.”
“Indeed, if it develops to the level of the Silver Age, common sense will be different from ours.”
Russ clicked his tongue as he peered inside the door. She did not pay lip service to the Silver Age civilization. It was about myself who understood those words.
‘I’ve seen and heard so many things over the years that I understand what they say.’
Different civilizations have different common sense. Although this is a very obvious statement, it is surprisingly difficult to understand without extensive experience. I realize once again how much I have seen and learned while following Leffenhardt.
‘If I had stayed in my family and was just chopping to death like a frog in a well, I would never have understood.’
The four people, led by Russ, entered the door. Even though it was underground, the inside was bright. This is thanks to the magic lanterns installed on each wall that emit a considerable amount of light. It’s a bit awkward to call a 1 meter long glass stick that emits light a lantern.
After walking along the stairs for a while, I finally came to a passage. It felt completely different from the above-ground part of Sayre Temple that I had seen so far.
All sides are made of metal and smooth marble. No, it’s not actually marble. It’s just a stone material that feels similar to marble. There were complicated pipelines on every wall, and there were parts crammed into it that I couldn’t tell if they were for decoration or had a purpose.
“here is?”
Siris looked at the map in response to Tashid’s question. And then he looked disappointed.
“It’s blank. There is no information about this place. But I know which direction to take.”
A passage connecting to another district can be seen in the southwest of the blank map. It was when Atilka and his group were about to move, taking the road map with them.
Wow!
A strange mechanical noise sounds and movement is felt. Russ and Tashid were surprised because he didn’t seem to be popular at all.
“what?”
Atilca took out two single sticks.
“I guess this is the end of letting me go comfortably.”
The parts of the wall that seemed like mere decorations move in unison and change shape. Like a puzzle, it complexly rotates and rearranges to form a single shape. The scene was surprisingly familiar to Atilka and the others.
Eldrad, the magic sword used by Chancellor Karl, is similar to when it changes from its sheath to its barding form.
-Gast Paraquel Heart!
‘It’ has suddenly changed into a bipedal form, shouting in ancient language and emitting red eyes. Siris smiled coldly as he pulled out Messiah.
“It’s a Silver Age golem.”
A total of nine Silver Age battle golems raise their arms in unison. The forearm rotated violently and spewed fire.
Drurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
☆ ☆ ☆
The underground section of Sayre Temple clearly had a thorough defense system. However, it was completely different from the magic traps in hero stories, blades rising from the walls, falling ceilings, and rivers of lava.
Stories like that usually only come from the tombs of kings who bury all kinds of grave goods and watch out for grave robbers. It was literally a trap set up only when passage itself was not permitted. On the other hand, this Sayre Temple was originally a cosmic egg, an Akashic Drive control plant from the Silver Age. It is said to be a place where employees come to work in the morning, do their own business, and then leave work at night.
