274. Robbery (3)
#274
“Are you here? Schlieffen.”
said Ronan. I told him not to tell clearly, but he seed to have heard and ca to . As expected, it wasn’t that surprising. As he looked around the room, Schlieffen’s face hardened like a stone statue.
“what…!”
The bloodstains were all gone, but it was still a terrifying sight. Headless corpses and knife marks everywhere made it hard to believe that this was the sa place Erill and I spent ti in. Schlieffen’s mouth opened slowly.
“…Ms. Lee.”
The sight of him chanting while looking into the sky seed like a person who had lost everything in the world. Maybe because her skin was pale, her reddened eyes were more visible. The cool-headed aspect that was basically there has long since disappeared.
“Ronan.”
Schlieffen belatedly turned his head. It was the mont when he staggered and stood in front of Ronan. bang! The door that had been closed with the recoil opened again, revealing Adeshan.
“Sch Schlieffen! If you suddenly leave the battlefield… Ah?!”
And her face also hardened. Judging from the situation, it seed that the two of them were in the sa place when they communicated.
Adeshan covered her mouth with the palm of her hand and turned to Ronan. A trembling voice leaked out through the cracks between the fingers.
“Ro Ronan…this is…”
“It’s just as I said. Thank you for coming quickly.”
Ronan laughed awkwardly. Outside the entrance, a large number of people could be felt. According to Ronan’s request for support, it seed that the pursuit party was brought. Seeing that Kratyr’s voice was mixed in, it seed to co from space magic.
A terrible silence fell. Adeshan quieted the buzzing pursuers with an electric sound. Schlieffen was the first to speak.
“…explain the situation.”
“I know how you feel, but calm down. Your hair keeps standing up.”
Ronan twisted his lips. It was difficult to breathe normally. Above Schlieffen’s shoulders, a lifelike shimring body comparable to that of Zeifa or Orsay was rising. A slow but heavy wind drew a whirlwind around him.
‘It’s almost the sa as back then.’
The wind seed ready to turn into a storm and sweep the islands away at any mont. Adeshan’s face went white.
In terms of montum alone, it was on a level similar to that of Schlieffen during the Continental First Sword, which he had t in his previous life. Could this be cold anger? Ronan opened his mouth again.
“You know it’s not your fault.”
Hearing this, Schlieffen gritted his teeth. aww A cracking sound could be heard from here. Before long, life eased and the turbulent wind died down.
It was still creepy, but Ronan knew it was his best. Still, as a well-educated child, he was better at controlling his emotions than himself. said Ronan.
“It’s a situation and there’s nothing to explain. Because it’s just what I said. The only thing I haven’t been able to tell you is that the guy who dragged my sister away is the head of Nebula Clazie.”
“A school leader?!”
Adeshan’s eyes widened. Schlieffen’s face stiffened again. He licked his lips like an anxiety patient and asked Ronan.
“…Life and death?”
“Not sure. But he’s probably still alive.”
Ronan ca first and shared the information he found out. When they heard that there was no trace of Iril’s blood at the scene, the two n’s expressions softened just a little bit.
Of course, the information did not guarantee Iril’s safety, so the need to hurry was still the sa. After the explanation, Ronan turned to Adeshan and said.
“right. Do you have blood needles now? The one I used to catch Barca in the North.”
“huh? Yes, there is, but…why?”
“please. I need.”
Ronan held out his hand. His calm expression was more serious than usual. Adeshan, who was rummaging through her arms, quickly found a blood needle and handed it to him.
“W Here…”
“Thank you.”
Ronan expressed his gratitude. After the death of Barca, the target disappeared, and the blood needle was spinning in place.
clap. He opened the lid and erased Barca’s blood. The needle has stopped rotating.
Ronan brought the needle to the sphere made of Abel’s blood. Sahah … again, the red -colored needle moved and started to point to the west.
“This…?”
“It is stained with the blood of the religious leader. Fortunately, it seems to be still within range.”
“What?”
Adeshan’s eyes widened. The content was shocking compared to the insipid tone. I never thought I’d saved the religious leader’s blood beforehand. Ronan, who handed the blood needle back to Adeshan, said in a stern tone.
“If you hurry up, you might be able to catch up with the naked eye. If you’re lucky, you might even find their headquarters. Instead, no matter what happens, don’t fight head-on. It’s different from the opponents I’ve fought before.”
Ronan, recalling mories of the past, twitched his lips. He rembered the image of Abel single-handedly overpowering Elcia and Alibrihe. I couldn’t forget the divine sword skill that handled the protection of the stars as if it were my own limbs and cut down the high-ranking wind spirit Hi-Lan with a single knife.
Moreover, since about a thousand years had passed since then, he must have beco much stronger. He must have accumulated countless knowledge, so in so ways he was a much more difficult opponent than the giant.
“Okay, okay…but Ronan, aren’t you going?”
Suddenly feeling strange, Adeshan asked. Ronan’s tone was like that of a parent giving a warning to a child on their first errand. Ronan shook his head.
“yes. I have a place to go to for a while. It’s a place you must visit to save your sister. It probably won’t take long.”
said Ronan. It was a decision made as rationally as possible. If Abel had the intention of kidnapping Iril and keeping him, it would be difficult to get him through normal ans.
At tis like this, I had to be more chill. If she acted like Sheeta had taught her, she would ruin everything.
Ronan put his hand in his pocket and fiddled with another blood needle left by his savior. After organizing his thoughts, he suddenly grabbed Schlieffen’s shoulders and said.
“Schlieffen.”
Schlieffen did not answer. He just shifted his gaze and looked into Ronan’s eyes. he continued.
“You promised two years ago. I will definitely protect my sister.”
“…okay.”
“That is still valid. Even if you don’t like it, I’ll let you protect it, so I’m waiting for you.”
The mont he heard that, Schlieffen’s eyebrows twisted. It felt like sothing was groaning from the depths of my chest. Ronan turned his head away from him, who was about to say sothing, and looked at Adeshan.
“I will try sothing. Heed my words not to fight with the principal.”
“Ughhh.”
“Then I will go.”
Adeshan groaned. Ronan, who was rummaging through his inner pocket, took out a small box. When the lid was opened, dozens of rolled up scrolls were revealed.
Ronan took out one of them and untied it. The scroll that Elcia gave as a gift in the past had the ability to take the caster to the distant sea of ghosts.
Thinking about it again, this was more correct than rushing and ssing things up. Ronan poured Abel’s blood into a small sapper. Then I went out the window and got on top of Sheeta’s neck. Rembering the savior’s face, he murmured softly.
“I guess the mold didn’t grow in my brain because I had a long fight against the disease.”
“Damn it.”
Sheeta cried in response. At the sa ti, Ronan opened the scroll.
The magic circle imprinted on the paper emitted light and distorted the space. Paaa…! Ronan and Sheeta could no longer be found where the halo of light appeared and disappeared.
****
Headquarters of Nebula Clazie.
“Terrible. Did you go all the way to Felgrand after all?”
“Now the limit. Where did the teacher go…”
The conference room was noisy. The seven archbishops were having a heated discussion about the church, which was increasingly on the defensive. The presence of the remaining six empty seats touched more desperately today.
“I really don’t know. I don’t know what to say, but haven’t you really abandoned the church?”
“Please refrain from blasphemy, Archbishop Anaquiel. You know you’re not like that.”
“Please, I hope my words are dismissed as slips of the tongue. I still thought you would see the face of Phantasion when he died…”
Anaquiel murmured. It’s already been a month since I saw the leader’s face. It was like having a terrible nightmare every day.
From a certain mont, those who were ignorant and blind were able to destroy the protection of the stars. If those who were skilled in handling powers ca forward, they could gain the upper hand, but the number of such talented people was limited.
The allied forces, led by Navardoze and the Empire, drove the Church to the edge of the cliff in an instant. The series of defeats and deaths of mbers of the organization were gnawing away at the spirit of the archbishops, who had overwhelming strength.
They sighed deeply and were about to resu the eting. bang! Suddenly the door to the conference room opened and a familiar man walked in.
“Nice to et you. How have you all been?”
“Sir!”
The archbishops’ eyes widened as if they would pop out. bang! Archbishop Le-Tansier was the first to get up from his seat.
“et the headmaster!”
Other archbishops followed. It was a face I hadn’t seen in a very long ti. Abel, who returned after a month, was carrying a human woman on his back. he said calmly.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t show you my face these days. I’m busy preparing sothing.”
“It’s okay, since you’re back now, Master. But that on your face… is it a wound?”
Le Tancier, who was examining the leader’s face, widened his eyes. On his left cheek, a scar that looked like a knife was drawn obliquely. Abel laughed and shook his head.
“It’s nothing. It’s just a lesson learned.”
“Lesson?”
“okay. The lesson is that the child of a beast is a beast no matter how mild it may look. It’s scary.”
Recalling what had happened in the islands, Abel giggled. The fight with Iril, who was holding a cleaver, was over in less than a minute.
Except for the wound, he suffered no damage, but the important thing was that he had competed more than a hundred tis, and he was injured in the end. Abel asked.
“What about Alibrihe? Still no answer?”
“That’s right. I completely lost contact with Adren… to the point where I think he may have lost his life at that ti.”
“There’s no way that’s the case… It seems he’s decided to betray the Church. Like a foolish old man.”
Abel smiled bitterly. I expected it, but it was a bit disappointing when it actually happened. I thought my heart was completely broken, wasn’t it? He looked at the archbishops in turn and tilted his head.
“But I can’t see Alicia. Are you on duty?”
“…Alicia died four days ago. With Kailasis. I was attacked by a man nad Ronan and Navardoze’s blood relatives.”
She explained the tragedy that had occurred in the Felgrand Mountains and the Pansia Fortress. Four archbishops lost their lives during Abel’s absence.
Abel shrugged his eyebrows when he heard that even Phantasion had been killed in battle. I can’t believe that even the deer got hit. It’s quite a lot of kids who are wondering if it’s the morning star of the empire.
My hands were itching, but that wasn’t the point. Abel glanced back at Iril and sighed.
“I’m sorry. This is a big deal. Among the archbishops, Alicia was the most delicate, so I tried to entrust her…”
“Yes? What do you an by that…”
Letansie tilted her head. I couldn’t guess what the words ant. Abel, who suddenly moved his gaze to her, let out a light sigh.
“I can’t help it. You’ll take care of it until you’re ready.”
“yes?
“Receive. Be careful. never get hurt.”
Instead of answering the question, Abel handed her the eril he was carrying. Hand movents were ticulous, as if handling precious tals. Iril, who had lost consciousness, was soundly asleep.
“this person is…?”
Seeing this, Le Tansie’s eyes widened. The most beautiful person he had ever seen in his life was right in front of his eyes. The white hair was very similar to that of the religious leader he worshiped. said Abel.
“Take good care of her. She will be our saint.”
