Regression Life Starting With Two Traits

Episode 131 A firm answer

The place where Penzaric’s finger stopped was a village in the southern part of the Empire.

“Do you remember this place?”

Looking closely, there was a forest with a familiar name beneath the village.

[Forest of hallucinations]

“That’s where we were when we first came to Fantasia.”

“Yes, the town above it is the first town you guys stopped by.”

There, with the help of the villagers, he was provided with a carriage and a place to sleep.

“What happened to the town?”

At that time, there was a group going to raid the village.

We hid at first, but when we reported to the capital, we suspected it was a guerrilla army from the east.

It was an area that I was worried about because I didn’t know the village that helped me.

“Originally, the messenger we sent should have reported, but there was no contact. So I sent Ilia and Killian there.”

According to Penzaric, he gave such an order when Ilia and Killian had settled the slavery issue.

“How about contact after that?”

“Fortunately, the villagers say they are safe. At that time, the group you saw did not stop by the village.”

“Then, where did the messenger disappear to?”

“Ilya is looking into it. I haven’t heard from you yet.”

“I hope it’s not a big deal.”

“I hope so too. It’s best to just go missing and stay alive, but it could also be that you’ve been attacked by a monster.”

“Didn’t you give him a crystal ball?”

When I asked, Penzarik shook his head.

“The number of magic crystal spheres is fixed. It’s not something that neither you nor I can hold onto. Besides, to use it, you must be able to handle mana to some extent.”

“okay. Right now, I have no choice but to wait for a call, right?”

“It won’t take too long.”

“Yes, because they specialize in that kind of thing.”

What were Ilia and Killian doing before?

It was an assassination squad in the intelligence group.

Finding one person would be a piece of cake for them.

“And Gordon’s comments bothered me, so I’m currently sending the remaining knights all over the empire.”

“Why Gordon?”

“You know what the demons tried to do with Gordon, right?”

know well.

Because it was a story I heard while bumping into Gordon directly at the scene.

Their purpose at the time was rebellion.

“Did you really think there would be another rebellion?”

“Yes, that was the same idea as the other prime ministers.”

“Looks like it’s still quiet.”

“Well, there is nothing wrong with being careful. And this is what we have prepared.”

At the end of the story, what Penzaric showed me was the armor.

A crystal the size of a child’s fist was embedded in the left chest of the silver armor.

“Are you like us? Is this the final stage?”

“Yes, it is the most efficient method I found after several attempts. I also thought about necklaces and rings, but this seems to be the most ideal way to supply the entire army.”

Inside the armor, various magic circles were inscribed in a dizzying way.

“You’ve got it all packed together.”

I’m not one of those who use magic circles, so I didn’t know the details.

“I hit all kinds of protection magic and everything I could put in.”

Penzaric was excited and explained various things.

The basic function was similar to the suit we prepared.

If there was anything else, it was a way to activate it.

Gilliant made it into a device, so when you press a button, it absorbs the surrounding demonic energy and uses it as a driving force.

On the other hand, Penzaric made it so that the first activation would require the individual to put mana into it.

“Can’t it be like Gilliant?”

When I asked if our method seemed more efficient, Penzaric sighed.

“That’s because Gilliant is a dragon. Even with this armor, all the skills a human wizard can do are mobilized.”

“Ah, it was so easy that I thought Master could do it.”

“You seem to have raised your eyes too high because you were hanging out with the dragon. Normal human wizards are amazing even if they become 5th circle or higher. Excluding you, I am the only 8th circle in the Empire, and there is no 7th circle. There are three 6 circles and the rest are all 5 circles or less.”

The number was unexpectedly small, probably because magic definitely requires talent.

“That’s why they say he’s a very valuable talent.”

“yes. That is why the emperor covets you.”

Certainly, the last time I came, the Emperor seemed to want me and my colleagues to stay in Fantasia.

If it wasn’t, the reason why we were given titles, even though it was an honorary position, could not be explained.

“Is there anything I can do to help?”

I looked at the open map and asked.

Anyway, the reason I came here in the first place was to familiarize myself with the newly acquired powers.

I had to raise the level of my summoning skills and I had to practice dealing with the elements of darkness.

So it was a car that I thought would be better if it had a mission.

Or, he was thinking of going into the mountains in the north where Charleigh had entered.

“You kid, didn’t you already want to go to the northern mountains?”

As if he had read my mind, Penzarik pointed out.

“Do you also use mind reading?”

“That’s what shamans use. As you get older, your eyes only increase. Your eyes kept opening towards that side of the map.”

“If all is well, I would like to go there to see Master Charleigh.”

Anyway, he said that the gate construction still needs time to be completed.

There was no need for me to go to the construction site and see the progress.

At my request, Penzaric pondered for a moment before speaking.

“I don’t have any missions to give you right now. So, do you really want to go there?”

“Yes, please contact me when the time is right. I will come down to find Master Charley.”

“i get it. It can be dangerous, so please be careful.”

“Is there anything special?”

The horns were also sweet, so I prepared to leave for the mountains right away.

Penzaric asked the servants to prepare necessary items in the mountains.

“But it’s late today, so leave tomorrow when it’s light.”

“I will.”

In order to have an audience with the emperor, I washed my body as soon as I came to the capital.

Still, I won’t be able to take a hot bath for a while, so I asked a court lady to wash my body.

smart.

I was washing in the wooden bathtub prepared in my room when someone came.

“I’m washing up now, so please come back in a minute.”

As I spoke, the court lady spoke from the other side of the door in a tone full of embarrassment.

“That’s right, the princess has come to visit.”

“no. If you are washing, I will come back later. Say so.”

And soon the princess’s voice was also heard.

They said they would come back, but it was already too late.

I said as I got out of the tub, dried myself and put on my clothes.

“Wait a moment. I will be ready soon.”

“Then, I will wait.”

The princess spoke directly from beyond the door, as if she had heard me move.

After a while, I opened the door after I was fully dressed, and the princess, dressed in an informal dress that was easy to move around in, was standing with the court ladies accompanying her.

“What are you doing at night?”

“I know it’s rude, but may I come in and talk?”

“I see.”

“You guys wait here for a while.”

“yes.”

After giving the order to the court ladies, the princess entered the room and sat down.

I sat across from her and asked why she had come.

“So why are you looking for me?”

At my question, the princess hesitated for a moment before opening her mouth.

“I heard that tomorrow at dawn, we will go to the mountains to the north.”

“Yes, I’m going to visit Master Charleigh with training.”

When the purpose was clearly explained, the princess said something with a determined look in her eyes.

“That road, I want to walk with you too.”

“Where are you walking? Do you want to go to the mountains together?”

When I was dumbfounded, the princess nodded.

“I have experienced how sad it is to lose someone on the battlefield while dealing with the monsters in your world. I’ve been frustrated because I haven’t progressed in my skills for several years now. It’s not like I didn’t stop thinking about entering the mountains, but as you know, I’m a princess… … .”

I cut the princess’ words in the middle and clearly drew a line.

Even the princess couldn’t listen to what she was saying right now.

“I thought you were smart, but you were reckless. Currently, the princess’s skills are already great as both a wizard and a swordsman. The story the princess said now is nothing more than a child’s teasing.”

“What!”

“Listen to the end of the story.”

I said emphatically.

It had to dry.

No one knows what will happen in the mountains.

If the princess insisted on going, the emperor would unconditionally attach a battalion of troops, and that would rather hinder training.

“This is not something to be stubborn about. The princess has her own role. Of course, it’s not like I don’t know the princess’s feelings.”

He knew the princess’ heart better than anyone else.

It was understandable in that sense that she liked our world.

From noble mtl dot com

No matter what anyone says, Fantasia here is the Middle Ages of our world.

A thoroughly class society and a feudal state.

There were female knights like Adelina, but despite that, I felt the limitations in looking at women.

In conversations with the princess, it was always felt that she was frustrated with such things.

At least, the emperor was open-minded, allowing the princess to participate in state affairs.

‘Among the chancellors of the empire, there are those who don’t like it.’

It was the story Penzaric told me the other day when I asked about the princess.

However, apart from just the issue of gender equality, this was the biggest problem with roles.

“You know the role of the princess, right?”

“I know. However, Count Yu Seo-jun seemed to understand me well, so I asked him. After all, you are giving the same answer.”

“no. I understand the princess. However, our roles are different now. When most of us go to Pandemonium, who guards the Empire? Just having the princes together is enough for the empire to carry the burden of risk. You know that His Majesty the Emperor doesn’t leave the princess behind for nothing, right?”

That was the current mission given to the princess and the position she had to protect.

After we go on a campaign, the remaining princesses and knights protect the empire.

“If the princess, who is supposed to do that, goes into the mountains and goes wrong, who should take the role?”

“Then, is it okay if Count Yoo Seo-jun goes wrong?”

“I’m not going unprepared.”

At the same time, I explained to the princess how to get out of the moment of danger.

However, the method was for me alone and there was no method for my colleagues.

“You see? It means that I cannot protect you in the moment of threat.”

After hearing all of my explanation, the princess bit her lip.

“Instead, how about this one?”

“Is there any way?”

During the conversation, I shared a method that came to mind.

“If you wait a bit, Gilliant will come over with the people from our world. There will be some free time before we move on to the Pandemonium, so how about asking him to fight?”

“A sparring with a dragon?”

“It will be a great help to improve your skills without having to venture into the mountains.”

He’s not the type to be looked after by Gilliant, and he’s the Empire’s guardian dragon.

Rather, if you hear the story, you will take off your feet and help.

“I will speak to Master Penzaric about this.”

After hearing my story, the princess nodded with a regretful look.

“All right. Still, I’m glad I didn’t go in vain.”

The princess stood up and said.

“I’m resting, please forgive the rudeness that suddenly came to me. I was in a hurry.”

The princess’s behavior made me think that I should draw another line.

“Then, rest well and wish you luck.”

“Wait a minute, I have one more thing to tell you.”

I called the princess who turned around and grabbed the doorknob, and I said firmly.

“Unless I am an idiot, I know what the princess thinks of me. That must be why I came to you today and asked you such an unreasonable request.”

The princess listened to my story in silence without looking back at me.

“It may sound cruel, but I only have one. The princess and I are friends, but it is difficult to develop a relationship beyond that.”

“is that so. After all, is your heart already filled with someone?”

The princess, who muttered that with her back turned, looked straight at me and said,

“Thank you for listening and giving me advice. Count Yu Seo-jun, if I could see you by my side, that would be enough. Please, I hope that you and Count Charleigh will return safely. Then, have a good night.”

Contrary to her expectations, her expression was a wide smile.

I got the feeling that her worries were completely resolved with a sincere expression that was clearly different from when she came to the room.

So, I also smiled.

“I hope the princess has a comfortable night too.”

The next day, I got on my horse at the north gate of the capital and greeted Jun Penzarik.

“Then, I will go.”

“If you meet Charleigh, tell him to contact him more often. No, please contact me directly and connect me. I have no sense of responsibility because I have become a knight commander!”

“hahahaha, I see. Do not worry. Could it be that something happened to that Charleigh?”

There were only Penzarik and a few members of the Mage Tower to meet them.

Before leaving, he greeted the emperor in the audience room.

The princess did not appear in the audience room or at the north gate.

“Penzarick, please take care of the princess.”

He picked and chose from the conversations he had with the princess and delivered only the necessary parts and asked Penzaric.

“Well, I’m sure the princess’ skills will improve if Gilliant helps. Don’t worry about that.”

“Yes, then we will contact you. scent!”

I said my last goodbye to Penzaric and started my horse.

*

Darkness fell very quickly in the mountains in midwinter.

At least the two moonlights were reflected by the accumulated snow, illuminating the surroundings, but the place where Charleigh was located was deep in the middle of the mountain, so even the moonlight was not hidden by the coniferous trees.

“Huck, huck. I’m sure I’m old, to be this out of breath.”

Charleigh was gasping for breath as she saw countless monsters lying in front of her.

“Awesome. After all, you are the leader of the Sword Master Knights.”

There was someone who spoke to Charleigh.

“Who are you!”

At Charleigh’s cry, the being in the shadows took a step forward.

Charleigh’s eyes widened when she saw the being revealed in the moonlight shining through the coniferous trees.

“You guys!”

Upon learning the identity of the shadow, Charleigh stretched out her sword without hesitation.

“Were you this impatient?”

The existence that easily avoided Charleigh’s sword and grabbed it with the index and middle fingers flashed red eyes in the dark with a fishy laugh.
