Chapter 411: Chapter 411

Episode 411. A rosy future (1)

Very active.

I trust my older brother more than anyone else.

It was a development that even my brother Nash had not thought of.

“…brother, did you really subdue the evil of the source?”

The William family’s arcane magic, 『The Origin of Scaring』.

The manifester can perfectly control the heat of the area, but as a side effect, hallucinations and hallucinations. Losing control over magic manifestations. Nash unknowingly recalled his father’s eyes shining like flames.

‘Father, of course, grandfather…’

Among the ancestors farther away than him, I heard that there was no one who controlled the source’s scare. I heard that it was called cowardice because it was uncontrollable.

But at this moment.

His brother’s flame was distinctly different.

Although it was burning fiercely like a scare fire.

“…How come it’s easier to move than before?”

It didn’t do any serious damage to the surroundings.

At Nam Tae-min’s words, Nash looked around.

Nam Tae-min was not the only adventurer.

“I can breathe now.”

“Whoa. It’s like midsummer, but it’s worth it.”

“Everyone, stop complaining that you are fighting for us!”

The heat did not reach even the people of the fragile empire. Only then did Nash’s face show emotion. You’ve done what no one in Banshee’s family has done…?

Childhood.

The words of Banshee on their way to the Mage Tower come to mind.

Nash’s eyes softened.

“Did you really end the evil of the William family?”

In the process, my older brother must have gone through an ordeal that cannot be expressed in words.

Nash nodded as if determined.

The thrill ends here.

‘What kind of hard work did my brother go through in the Mage Tower?’

I will rescue the Empire from the thorns and listen calmly. Nash looked at the scavenger half-hidden in the sewer.

“Scavenger. Is your hiding place safe?”

“If you’re talking about the sewers, honestly, the situation is not good. Even in the sewage system of the imperial palace, thorny vines were sprouting. Everyone is trying desperately to stop it, but…”

“I see.”

Imperial Palace Mage.

It was Nash who had maintained and repaired the defensive magic circle that appeared in the sewer.

Naturally, the structure of the sewage system was grasped to some extent.

Nash said to the scavenger.

“There is a magic circle ambushed in the sewer that leads to the imperial palace. It is a magic circle to punish intruders, but the exact condition for its manifestation is the moment when a considerable amount of mass is applied to the magic circle.”

“…considerable mass? Can’t you speak a little easier?”

“I mean don’t get close.”

Perhaps the clogged sewer is a specialized facility to defend against the advance of thorns. But aren’t the scavengers also citizens of the Empire? Moreover, they were the ones who were protecting Antonium in an invisible place.

Nash added.

“If you want to be credited, survive.”

“…!”

“When the magic circle manifests, the entire sewer system collapses. If they are not buried together, they will be able to save their lives and completely block the advance of thorns. My only concern is…”

The scavenger’s eyes widen.

“Emilio…!”

Nash nodded.

Yes, the king of scavengers.

Emilio had infiltrated the basement of the imperial palace through the sewer to determine the exact cause of the situation. If the thorn grows bigger and reaches a mass enough to manifest a magic circle.

So, if the sewer collapses…

“Emilio may not be able to come back.”

There are numerous traps and magic circles lurking in the basement of the imperial palace.

imperial treasury.

Among them, I had to protect the 『Archive of Warlords』.

Will Emilio be able to get information through countless traps and magic circles? Even if you learn one thing, can you safely escape to the land of Antonium covered with thorns, not the sewer?

Roaring!

Even if Benshy-sama was holding on, its range was limited to thorny vines escaping from Antonium. That’s right… I hear the sound of Nam Tae-min grinding his teeth.

“Damn, I can’t completely burn that thing down.”

A rose flower on a thorny vine.

Didn’t you find out through the words of the scavengers that humans are sleeping in those petals? So the best thing for now was to believe and wait.

Nash said to the restless scavenger.

“Let them believe.”

“…?”

“Emilio your king.”

“…!”

“Because I also believe.”

It’s not just Emilio.

Even Ho-yeol, who declared that he would return in four days from the end of his majesty in the imperial palace, the people of the empire, who did not know what kind of struggle he would be fighting in the middle of the flower.

*

Creeping.

After moving secretly, Emilio entered the basement of the imperial palace.

A lot of experience accumulated as the king of scavengers.

Ability increased due to the influence of the Warring States period.

Perhaps thanks to that, Emilio did not suffer any injuries.

However, that was all.

‘shit.’

It was Emilio who confirmed the true nature of the flower with both eyes.

Flowers bloomed in places where guards would be all over the stairs.

Emilio shook his head.

‘Wake.’

It’s time to shake off your fears and take a closer look.

Antonium the identity of this ridiculous thorny vine.

It was the moment when Emilio shook off his fear and moved on.

Suddenly, I saw a thorny vine protruding through the outer wall.

Emilio studied the thorns closely.

‘Isn’t it unusually thick?’

The accelerated brain gives the answer.

Perhaps this vine was the first root to grow.

If so, if I go back through this thorny vine…

‘Maybe I can reach the cause.’

Shuk.

Emilio instinctively pushed himself through the crack in the collapsed outer wall.

I learned that when pricked by thorns, the whole body is covered with flowers.

The end moved carefully while looking through the thorns.

Emilio was able to reach the other side of the wall.

and witnessed

“!”

light pouring out.

collapsed cracks.

[The Warlord’s Library].

One step, two steps…

Emilio carefully looked into the inside of the War Room and was startled. A thick floral scent that pierces the nose. Inside the warlord’s library, there were roses in full bloom, not flowers.

“…what?”

Roses blooming on a thorny vine. Emilio thought. For what reason? Why are the roses here blooming differently from other flowers?

“!”

There was no need to borrow even the spinning monarch’s brain. Even if Emilio had not received a proper education, he knew how many emperors the current emperor was in the empire.

“Seven… the seventh…!”

Yes.

The number of roses in full bloom equaled the number of imperial emperors.

The number of roses equal to the number of emperors in the basement of the imperial palace.

Emilio gives the correct answer.

‘Could it be that this thorny vine grew with the emperors as food?’

then.

Does that mean that the current emperor has also become one of the roses?

Isn’t this the information that I have to pass on to Cloudy?

‘I have to get out.’

However, at this moment, Emilio had one unsolved question. A system message that was clearly visible even though it was invisible to Emilio, an Arcana.

[Faced the lord of the hostile force.]

If the current emperor became a rose, then who the hell is the lord living in Antonium now? The answer to that was given by the parties themselves.

Burr—

roses that suddenly drop their petals into small pieces.

Just like roses in full bloom bowing their heads.

The stem was broken.

At the same time, a voice rang in Emilio’s head.

-“Serik Rose, the eternal lord of roses, will ask.”

It wasn’t telepathy that was only passed on to Emilio.

It wasn’t just the roses that bloomed in the Emperor’s library that bowed their heads. All the flowers of Antonium bowed before the eternal Lord of the Roses, and all around Antonium heard the King’s voice.

Finally, it appeared in the player’s field of vision.

[The eternal lord of roses, Seric Rose, appears.]

[The field is transformed.]

[An eternal rosy future looms over.]

[The status abnormal ‘Eternal Sleep’ occurs.]

“!!!”

fleeting moment.

Wide-area status abnormality manifested.

Only 4 people refused the status ailment.

Bensch Matisse Bellier.

3 senior wizards.

and.

‘Hold on, Nash. As long as Serrick Rose’s name came up…!’

Nash, who was holding on to consciousness with extreme mental strength, was the end.

Is it because of that?

It didn’t take much time to get to know each other.

Ceric Rose, a man with a crown of thorns on his head.

He continued speaking towards Banshee.

“Brave wizard, what is your name?”

Banshi thought.

How far did Chief Lee foresee the situation? Did you expect that the root cause of the situation would appear right in front of me? Laughter broke out.

“How can a senior like me know the chief’s intentions?”

But at this moment, it was clear what he had to do.

An existence other than that emperor who put forward the name of Emperor Seric Rose.

to burn out.

Banshee replied.

“It’s Flame Emperor Banshee William.”

Banshee was guessing the identity of the opponent in his heart.

Like the chief said.

Isn’t it a situation where the evil entered the inside of Antonium?

I must have thought it was the devil.

However, the answer was unexpected.

“William. That’s a name I miss.”

It was a reaction as if he had known the William family for a long time.

There was a sense of elegance that could not be hidden even in the way he spoke.

It was different from the demons I was used to seeing.

“The William family’s banshi. I, Seric Rose, will give you a worthy reward to you who have the ability to call yourself the Flame Emperor.”

“her?”

I was dumbfounded and laughed out loud.

What do you consider your determination to awaken as the Flame Emperor?

Instead of talking, Banshee shuddered in cowardice.

‘I can’t lose.’

Thorns and flowers vulnerable to fire.

In terms of compatibility, fire magic was completely ahead.

However, Seric Rose was still full of composure in the face of scare.

“Choose.”

To be precise.

“The merciful I will give you a choice.”

That was clearly the emperor’s attitude.

“What you want is eternal happiness or an empty truth?”

*

Let’s see, I should be fully prepared, right?

‘I still don’t know what the arrogant guy is up to.’

In any case, it won’t change the fact that you have to enter the sealed Antonium. In the end, it meant that a siege war had no choice but to take place. In ancient times, the important thing in siege warfare is firepower.

I stopped by Garnet Hall and looked at the magic tools for decisive battle in turn.

Kiko Armin, senior in enchantment.

“Ah, if you are Chief Lee, you must be able to handle that staff perfectly. Of course, this absolutely does not mean that Chief Lee has to rely on the staff!”

Doesn’t it seem like there’s nothing special to do today?

He is watching me pick out magic tools.

Anyway, the feeling is new.

‘In the past, I only had to choose one of these.’

A hexadecimal brooch that I chose while leaving the splendid items of the Mage Tower.

However, the past where the level limit was plagued is no more.

[Level: 976]

It was a level close to 1,000.

No matter how great a magic tool it is.

This meant that there was no difficulty in wearing them.

“Do it with this.”

“Oh yes.”

“I will ask for this too.”

“Wait a minute…!”

“This too.”

“Yes yes!”

Anything is more than good.

Thanks to the discipline of the Mage Tower, which is generous to the chief.

It was the moment I had dozens of magic tools in my inventory.

Suddenly, a magic tool caught my attention.

[Small Magical Sun]

It was a top-notch magic tool that Banshee wanted to borrow so badly.

Yes, in the yard where I somehow managed to get out of the tower.

Now, what would we do if we strictly restricted the export of magic tools?

“I’m asking for this too, senior Kiko Armin.”

“This…? Yep, I’ll take care of it!”

As I said before, firepower is important in siege warfare.

From Benshe Valley to Matisse Nash.

It wouldn’t be a bad idea to bring magic tools for them.

‘If it’s necessary, I can use it.’

It was the moment I left the Garnet Hall with a lot of magic tools in my inventory like a merchant. Suddenly, Hiel appeared out of thin air. Highel bowed her head politely.

“I’m sorry, lord.”

When he suddenly appeared without being called, Hayel would ask for forgiveness with the same diligent attitude he is now. To the extent that anyone can misunderstand it.

Of course, I’ve never scolded Hiel for anything like that. Because Hyel always had a good reason. It was the same even now.

Highell’s voice full of concern rang in my ears.

uncommonly.

“Survivors of Dredsen. I can’t feel their breath.”

My eyebrows twitched.

“Did you choose reality anyway?”

Ceric Rose The Lord of Roses speaks quietly.

“Look. As I said, isn’t it absurd?”

Looking at Banshee covered in rose petals.

“Brother Bebensh…!!”
