Chapter 225
“What, is it all over?”
As if Valencidis’ words weren’t funny enough, Elamas started giggling.
“It starts now, what do you mean? “It’s not even a task to redraw the lines.”
The sight of something evil shining in Elamas’ eyes sent a chill down my spine, but that was all.
‘Is this really one of the pillars of the Black Church, like Xernix?’
I don’t feel the overwhelming presence that only the transcendent ones have. Just meeting Zernix and Tureina face to face was enough to take my breath away.
‘Could I possibly win?’
It was not the time to think like that.
Obin and Ovira’s safety must be the top priority now.
It’s best to pretend to fight, then retreat from here and disappear.
“The princess was too young to do something like this because she was afraid she would faint, but it would be different if it was a dumb prince who rolled over and over again outside the palace.”
“… … !”
“Well, your beloved uncle is here. “If you don’t want to let him die, call the last movement and unseal Rigwind.”
It seemed like he was offering a threatening deal.
But Elamas immediately snapped his fingers… … Regent Predal’s limbs were torn as he was transformed into a primitive man.
Obin’s forehead became wet with cold sweat as he saw the body struggling on the ground. Only later was he able to cover his brother’s eyes.
“Hmm~ I guess my uncle is a bad guy so he doesn’t pay attention? then… … .”
It was around that time.
Palace guards came after confirming that an unidentified object had infiltrated the inner palace.
The guards immediately stretched out their hands to the hilts of their swords at the sight of the cruel sight, but when they saw Obin on the other side, they could not believe their eyes.
“Your Majesty the Prince.”
“Your Majesty the Prince!”
“His Royal Highness is back!”
But what happened?
Is that man the enemy?
But why is the prince trying to get away from the priest and not that man?
‘Unfortunately, I don’t have time to explain everything.’
While they buy us time, we must escape from here with Obin. If Obin dies, everything ends.
“Guards of Solond! The priest was behind all of this! “The author killed the previous king to break Rigwind’s seal, and tried to kill the prince as well, but failed!”
The guards could not believe their ears.
The only ones who knew the truth were a few guards who accompanied Obin… … .
I couldn’t immediately accept the statement that a priest who had devoted himself to the country for several years was in the dark.
“Yeah, those would be nice.”
Elamas could have refuted those words and caused confusion, but he chose to smile mischievously instead.
“Prince, from now on I will kill your loyal guards here one by one.”
Suddenly, a huge shadow covered Asahat’s tomb.
At that moment, all mortals’ minds froze in fear of death… … .
As soon as the shadow hit the ground, the earth shook violently, causing the warriors to lose their balance and hit their buttocks or kneel down on one knee.
‘No, that doesn’t make sense…’ … .’
Valencidis shuddered from the cold sweat running down his mouth.
It is a true dragon.
An absolute creature with a mighty force like Mount Tai and the majesty of a storm. One of the five clones who shared the power of Shinryong.
‘Is this what Elamas meant when he said he was using his power?’
Lately, I’ve forgotten that majesty because of that baby Jinryong’s ridiculous behavior… … .
But how does this happen… … .
Is it possible for a mortal to control an immortal? There is no chance of winning. You have to run away. As soon as possible.
“Everyone stay still. The show starts now. “Absolute territory.”
Jinryong stretched out his neck and roared.
As my eardrums burst, a fishy smell, like rusty metal, invaded my senses of smell.
I experienced confusion of hearing and smell, and some hallucinations.
The visible world turns into a lake, and ripples spread as dark blue water drops fall on the surface of the lake.
Because of the confusion, it was half a beat late to realize what had happened.
‘what.’
My body doesn’t move.
I can’t move my arms, not even a single fingertip, my legs, my toes, or my tongue.
As if time had stopped… … But my five senses were definitely alive. She was nervous and sweat poured down like rain.
‘An absolute state that only absolute beings like Jinryong can create… … Even that power can be realized?’
The only person allowed to move was Obin.
In that stopped world, Elamas approached one of the stopped guards.
He gave Obin a mischievous look and pulled out the sword from the guard’s scabbard.
“You said you would kill them one by one, right? “I can’t move my body, but I can feel it.”
“… … ?!”
“So what? “You will die while slowly savoring the feeling of a knife being cut into your heart, the feeling of dying.”
Elamas opened the seams of the withers’ breastplate, fully exposing his chest.
“Then you think about it. Why doesn’t the prince save us? Oh, I’m so resentful~!”
And then he began to slowly push the tip of the knife into the heart, like dipping a brush into ink.
“Ha, ha, don’t do it────!”

The tip of the knife tore through the skin, shattered the ribs, and pierced the beating heart inside.
Fresh blood burst out in tears, but the guard could not even scream.
They just talk about the fear of death with wide eyes.
“What, could you talk? Were you just pretending to be mute? why?”
Obin, who was panting painfully, let out a cry filled with tears.
“Why, what are those people doing, what are they doing!”
“Don’t you know that the very existence of weak things alive and breathing is a sin? “A prince of a country?”
“… … ?!”
“Now, quickly, try playing the flute of your own free will! Until then, I will be working hard to kill each and every one of these fifty or so guards.”
* * *
A flash of light collided in the sky over the central and eastern city of Bara, and an explosion erupted.
“Drunk death, goblin needle.”
Drunk 30%.
Like a will-o’-the-wisp that deceives people’s hearts, the arrow that was flashing blue instantly split into three and aimed at the target.
“You’re drunk, you sting quite a bit.”
Fel, who easily intercepted the blow from the air, yawned as if he was bored.
“Even so, it is difficult to join the ranks of experts in archery.”
Rem raised her eyebrows as if it were ridiculous.
“Are you such a famous archer?”
“It was also evaluated as the best on the continent.”
“Are you the best shot among the fairies?”
“Fairy warriors don’t practice archery in the first place. “I think it’s a cowardly weapon.”
“They are idiots.”
“I know yeah. Anyway, the only competition was humans, and it was too easy. Human physical abilities are so insignificant compared to fairies. “It’s not a special skill, but it’s top-notch.”
In fact, as an archer, I couldn’t not know Fel’s name even if I wanted to.
She was called the first archer in the generation following the legendary archer Keyes, but the fact that she was a fairy who despised archery drew explosive interest.
That very point, the fact that the opponent in front of me had such a reputation, made my palms tingle with tension and aroused a fierce anticipation.
“This is a really awesome situation.”
“?”
“If I defeat you here and now with archery, won’t I become the number one archer?”
As Rem grinned, Fel burst out laughing as if it was absurd.
“Now that I think about it, that hair color of yours, is it really a descendant of that Gungseong bastard? No, there is nothing to ask. “I see he has that bow.”
After laughing for a moment, he took something out of his pocket with a sigh.
“Do you know what is most important to an archer?”
I wondered if he was taking out some kind of special equipment, but what he was holding in his hands was… … It was a simple gold coin.
It only looks like a gold coin, but is it a special magic tool?
“Spatial perception ability? A famous archer? Ability to calculate wind direction? Shoulder and arm strength? “It’s all wrong.”
After learning the lucky shooting technique using this gold coin, Fel has never been defeated by any archer.
“That’s just luck.”
Just once.
Except for the unofficial match against Palace Keyes.
“Now, let’s see how long you can hold out.”
Death while drunk.
A unique archery technique that utilizes the spirit to use only curved fire, not direct fire, to the limit.
One of the best archery techniques created by Kies, the archer who conquered the turbulent times in the past.
“──!”
Rem had to twist her body to drink from the gourd on her waist. Heat rushed to his temples.
“If you’re lucky, you don’t even need to aim!”
arrow… … ?
What is this rapid fire?
“When you’re lucky, you can just shoot randomly and get hit!”
He bounced his body up into the air and dodged the arrows that were flying endlessly, but no matter how much he thought about it, it was abnormal.
‘What happened?’
Those who practice archery properly need three rehearsal movements.
1. Preheating of Manahat.
2. Hanging the bow on the string.
3. Aim and shoot.
But how is it that he completely omits number 3?
“Drunk death, three-shot entertainment star!”
Drunk 70%. The arrows that left Serwebon’s bowstring scattered in three directions.
One to the sky, another to the left, and the last one to the right.
The arrows that flew out of the opponent’s field of vision changed their trajectory there and flew toward the target the archer was aiming for.
This is one of the advanced techniques that is very difficult to master among the simultaneous impact shooting methods of drunken warriors.
“Oh, this?”
Fel, who was chasing Rem, whistled in surprise and shot an arrow at the protest.
I didn’t aim at anything, just roughly pointed in any direction, like a child playing around. Archery without any sense of skill or skill.
But those arrows… … He shot down Rem’s arrows from the air with great precision.
“You understand now, right? “No amount of effort or talent can match the natural luck.”
What nonsense… … Doubting your eyes is a word used in times like this.
‘How on earth am I supposed to beat this?’
Rem ran and somersaulted with the agile movements of an archer across the rooftops and exterior walls of the now chaotic city.
‘When I fire one shot, I fire three or four times.’
Arrows imbued with the venom of the abyss pursued them persistently, and even as they ran away and intercepted them again and again, their numbers only increased.
The endless clash of arrows dancing in the sky looked like acrobatics to anyone.
In fact, martial arts that have been trained to the limit are said to be endowed with aesthetic beauty like acrobatics.
‘Is it really just luck? There’s some kind of trick, but you’re not trying to confuse me?’
That guy said it was luck rather than talent, but that makes no sense.
It’s not luck, it’s that he was born with truly unrealistic talent.
That was when Rem jumped off a three-story building and fired two arrows at Pel while hovering.
“!”
Of the ten arrows chasing him, three stuck in the ground.
As the ground corroded and collapsed due to the miasma, the landing was not stable.
The six shots sharply changed their trajectory and hit the market buildings on both sides… … The pillars melted and the structures collapsed. Come this way.
‘This is crazy… … .’
Before I could judge the situation and take action, a hot pain arose in my side and blood vomited out uncontrollably.
The arrowhead that pierced the side was glistening with blood. The skin near the penetrating wound immediately began to turn black and rot… … .
And countless pieces of collapse debris poured down on top of it… … .
Coo coo coo coo coo coo… … !
Fel nodded in satisfaction as the buildings fell like a landslide, engulfing all targets in between.
“As expected, that guy was abnormal. “There is no one in this world who can beat this Fel with a bow.”
I knew I had no talent, Rem thought.
So I trained like crazy again and again. She honed herself by taking on countless challenges, even when she had to risk her life.
And yet, is there a level beyond genius that cannot be reached even with such efforts? … .
– Uncle, uncle!
At a moment that can be said to be the end of life, the memory that passes through my mind is the ‘memory of the beginning’ of that distant summer day.
While the cicadas are chirping noisily, two sounds permeate into the melody.
The sound of an arrow splitting through the air, a series of bursts that accurately pierce the target.
– hmm?
While the heat of summer was pouring in about two months ago, Rem urgently visited Leoren.
– I heard that our ancestors founded our palace faction and left Serwebon behind to help Lin. Is that true?
– That’s known.
Leoren loosened his tight grip and looked back at Rem.
– But why did our tomboy girl suddenly become curious about that?
– Then, I want to become an extremely strong archer like my uncle! So I’m going to use Serwebon!
– hmm? Why the sudden conclusion?
– Then you can explain it to Lin later when you meet him. How hard our grandfather, father, and uncle lived.
How diligently they are working, following Keyes’ teachings and following his will to help Rin.
Rem’s father and grandfather, the heads of the three major royal factions of the empire, were always busy, so they did not have time to care for Rem as their daughter and grandchild. She only treats him strictly.
Kieth’s descendants were risking their lives on producing a successor to Serwebon. Because it is directly related to the prestige of the family.
It’s natural to feel sorry for that, but to think that it actually led to such a great thought… … Leo Wren couldn’t be more proud of her nine-year-old niece.
– And I feel so sorry for Keyes. So, would you like me to become a master archer and convey that feeling to you someday?
Leoren ruffled Rem’s hair.
He has always been a cute and lovely child, but today I wanted to be even cuter than usual.
– Listen carefully, Lem. There are many people who want Serwebon as a token of their success in life, but there is probably no archer other than you who wants it out of consideration for his feelings.
– Uncle too?
– … … .
– ?
– You will definitely become a great archer. I think Serwebon will know your heart someday and choose you.
Serwebon, famous for its ego, chooses its owner of its own will.
– So, I will keep this Serwebon in charge until you become a great archer.
Anyone who has not been chosen as a master cannot even dare to handle Serwebon, even if they have it in their hands.
– But I… … Could it be? My father told me to go out and beg for money, saying that I had no talent at all.
Leoren smiled kindly and immediately allayed Rem’s worries.
– Our ancestors also said that. I didn’t fight alone, I just fought together with Serwebon.
Since you recognized Keyes’ sincerity, Serwebon will definitely respond to your sincerity.
Fighting together with Serwebon… … ?
I don’t know if that’s possible. I can’t read Serwebon’s true feelings. I can only understand the heart through the light it emits.
Slurrrrr… … .
Fel, who had been walking toward the inner palace before being scolded by Elamas, turned around and opened his mouth in confusion.
“Alive?”
The fresh green branches sprouting from Serwebon were pulling Rem out of the rubble.
What I felt there was absolute vitality, removing the venom of the poisonous arrow and infusing my body with tremendous vitality.
Rem, covered in blood, slowly caught her breath, which was on the verge of breaking. If it weren’t for Serwebon’s vitality, the body would have already died… … however.
‘What happened…? … .’
Serwebon’s vines are covering both eyes, so it’s normal if you can’t see anything.
But it appears.
To be precise, you can feel the waves emitted not only by living things but also by objects. We were in a field of vision where the waves could be accurately sensed.
‘Is Serwebon showing me?’
