Holy Emperor’s Grandson is a Necromancer - Chapter 122

Episode 122 〈 The Underground Labyrinth of Airans 〉

The first successful Ordin.

He laid down the roots of faith on the continent and was the founder of religion.

He also established the first religious nation and instructed 12,000 priests to painstakingly create one object over several decades.

That is the Noble Phantasm that summons ‘angels’.

It is called the sublime sword of God and the strongest relic on earth.

But that is still a mythical record.

Nothing was exactly known about its appearance and performance.

I was in the royal library of Airans.

Ellis and Hans were also present.

Ellis is studying magic out of curiosity.

This is because there are many wizards who have different values and thoughts than Raphael, so they have access to a variety of magic books.

Hans sought knowledge about warp gates.

I heard that there are a few wizards here who can use the warp between continents, so there should be enough information about the warp.

I also wanted to find a ‘record’ here.

This is the record of the ‘angel’ spoken of by Queen Rox.

-There is a record about an angel in position 5785 of the last library.

Queen Rox said.

She said she witnessed an ‘angel’ in person.

I walked through the spiral-shaped library filled with hundreds of thousands of volumes.

I raised my head when I saw the numbers listed.

“It’s high.”

Books with no end in sight.

I brought a ladder, put it on, and slowly climbed into the study.

“found.”

Then, she took out the book Queen Rox had mentioned and opened it.

There, there was a record of Queen Rox’s trip to Tytalos.

That’s a record from 40 years ago.

-It was like a completely different world and had a different ecosystem.

A place where ancient environments and creatures live.

-He led the army with his father to investigate the labyrinth and interpret the ancient runes there. It was only after many years that I finally found out. Before the Airans Palace was built, this place was a huge tomb created by someone.

I turned the page.

My eyes widened as I turned each page.

-found. I figured it out. This place.

This is the tomb of Ordin, the first Holy Emperor.

-A terrible and grotesque object rested in those ruins. With its gigantic body, it spewed out thousands of arrows and spears of light and swung hundreds of hooks. And…

I swallowed dry saliva.

-2,500 private soldiers, including 500 knights and wizards, were killed. It also served as an opportunity for His Majesty the King to pass away.

The sublime ‘angel’ displayed his greatness without even suffering a single wound.

More powerful than a dragon, it could be said to be an angel guarding God’s throne.

I closed the book.

This meant that the Noble Phantasm was not simply sleeping, but was being guarded by an angel.

“This is a big deal.”

“What?”

I looked at Ellis, who was talking to me next to me.

She was moving books so thick that they were piled up so high that they obscured her vision.

“I looked into angels.”

Alice’s eyes turned into surprised rabbit eyes.

She was very curious about theology and magic.

For Ellis, the word ‘angel’ would be quite a provocative element.

I applied for this job only after hearing that it was the first success, so I would like to praise her desire to explore.

“Are there angels?”

I was so shocked that I stumbled and almost knocked over the book, but I managed to keep my balance.

Ellis sighed in relief but laughed awkwardly at his own foolishness.

“Do you know about angels?”

“…Even if you don’t know, there are many types and myths.”

“What is the myth connected to Emperor Ordin?”

Ellis placed the books on a nearby shelf. Eventually, he placed his finger on his chin and fell into deep thought.

“There aren’t many records. but.”

She glanced at me and said.

“He was both god and devil.”

I frowned.

“It is written, ‘When he waved his hand, the surrounding terrain changed, the believers were saved, and the wicked cried out in despair.’” There is

something majestic about the description.

Since it was the first prosperity, the record may have been exaggerated.

However, when compared to Queen Rox’s record, it could not be said that it was not. No

matter how much the dragon was, it was a regular army of the magic kingdom

. Not only was it difficult to annihilate the 3,000 knights and wizards, but it was not impossible to inflict even a single wound.

“If the description in the myth is true, then we Can you defeat an angel?”

Ellis’ eyes widened at my question. She

shook her head with her mouth closed, as if she didn’t want to say it out loud.

She denied it.

I stroked her chin.

Ellis looked at me clearly for a while.

She mumbled

something . It seemed like she was about to speak, but she couldn’t muster up the courage.

I glanced at her for a while, and Ellis opened her mouth.

“Perhaps the prince is really a saint…”

“I figured it out!”

Ellis flinched and closed his mouth.

Hans scattered documents around and shouted,

“So who am I? I am Hans, a genius alchemist who has studied warp gates for generations!”

Hans burst into laughter,

“Damn you vampires! You guys have lived for thousands of years. We have knowledge and wisdom passed down from generation to generation. Hahahaha!”

Nosebleeds flowed from his nose at his squinted eyes,

and his eyeballs rolled over and fell backwards.

“Hans!”

Ellis hurried over and cast a healing spell.

Hans muttered, ‘I did it. It’s a goddamn human victory, you vampires…’

It looked like he had put quite a strain on his body.

“How many days has he been like that?”

Ellis sighed and said,

“I stayed up all night for about a week. I think I was able to survive by forcing myself to drink holy water.”

Perseverance alone is amazing.

You can cure physical fatigue with holy water, but your mind won’t be able to endure it.

I looked away.

There was a piece of paper and a warp line drawn by Hans.

I know the coordinates of the warp used by the vampires. “Genius has nothing to do with social status, I guess.

”

Hans was able to figure out on his own what hundreds of wizards and alchemists, said to be the best in the Holy Empire, could not figure out even after gathering together to research. He

even interpreted Aztalun, so he must be a talent that only comes along once every 100 years.

“I should at least give him a special bonus later. “Let’s wait until you recover and then we can go to Taitalos.”

“Are you really going to the Holy Emperor’s tomb?”

“I’m also planning to pay a visit to the Holy Emperor’s grave.”

I also plan to go grave robbing.

Although I didn’t say the last word, Ellis looked perplexed as if I understood what he meant.

I need Hans and Ellis’ help to find Ordin’s relic.

As soon as their condition recovers, I will go there. ** Queen Rox

could

not hide her embarrassment when she saw the 7th prince come back.

She felt better just seeing the grandson of Celt, with whom she had an old relationship, but now she felt anxious and wanted to stamp her feet.

” Are you really planning to go?”

We had dinner on the balcony with the 7th prince.

Queen Rox was worried and asked the 7th prince again. She

mentioned a record from 40 years ago out of fear that he might change his mind again, but

the 7th prince seemed to have made a firm decision.

“Gun . “I won’t ask you to borrow it, but since I heard it’s a labyrinth, I’d like you to give me a clue so I won’t wander through the tomb.”

This reckless personality resembles the Celts.

“It’s a place where the environment changes continuously like a maze. There are ancient runes, so you have to interpret them and move forward.

“There are Hans and Ellis. Those two are capable of reading the ancient runes. “You can interpret it.”

It’s good to trust your subjects and act, but there are only three of them

. Going to the place where 3,000 knights and wizards regular army was massacred.

Queen Rox looked at the 7th prince for a while.

Her eyes were unwavering.

She rested her forehead and sighed. I took a break.

Celt did the same, but his grandson also didn’t have the confidence to stop him.

Even if he was forced to stop him, his grandson would probably sneak in and force him to do it.

“Okay. Then, I’ll introduce you to a wizard who will guide you.”

“Are you okay?”

It’s a labyrinth.

It’s okay to go in together and go near the tomb, but the wizard must come out of the labyrinth alone.

That’s almost impossible.

But this is the magical kingdom of Iran.

Dozens of wizards are waiting in the palace so that one individual can move to the warp. You can deploy a warp formation.

“You just have to use warp.”

“thank you.”

The 7th prince smiled.

Queen Rox looked at him and felt better.

“But there’s something going on.”

Queen Rox said firmly,

“You must come out, do you understand?”

The 7th Prince nodded with a puzzled expression. As

the 7th Prince left the room, the maid next to him asked Queen Rox.

“Are you okay?”

“He’s Kelt’s grandson. I’m sure it’ll be okay.”

Even though she said that, she still felt uneasy.

Queen Rox trembled.

The angel she saw then was like a devil to Queen Rox.

Even after seeing that, there was no guarantee that the 7th Prince would be safe.

She got up from her seat and looked at the sign placed in the room. I looked at the mirror.

My face is wrinkled.

Compared to before, my body is weaker and my stamina is much lower. I

‘m taking care of it, but compared to my prime, I can’t help but sigh.

However, my magic skills have grown beyond comparison. .

“…Chief of maid.”

“yes.”

The maid lowered her head.

“Isn’t age just a number when it comes to adventure?”

The maid’s eyes widened.

“no way…?”

“I will leave the palace for a while.”

“Your Majesty the Queen.”

Queen Rox curled the corners of her mouth and smiled.

“This is my first trip in a long time.”

Like an innocent girl, she felt excited.

**

It took a week of preparation.

Baggage and Food Magic tools received from the Kingdom of Airans were stored in the item window.

Hans also looks active, as if he has had a good rest for a week.

Ellis clinked his gauntlets together and looked triumphant.

Both were excited at the prospect of seeing the creature runes of the ancient era and the tomb of the Holy Emperor. and.

“I will leave it up to you. “I’m Norman, the wizard.”

An old man decided to take on the role of guide.

Her long robe dragged on the floor because of her bent waist. In one hand, he holds a crystal staff.

From what I heard, he is the greatest wizard in the royal palace.

“Please take care of me.”

I held out my hand and Norman took my hand and shook it.

Following the guidance of the knights and wizards, we headed to the entrance of Taitalos.

Go down the basement stairs.

After walking for a while, we arrived at a place where there was a huge iron gate.

The knights removed the locks and chains on the iron gate.

The wizards began to chant spells to break the barrier.

The door opened slowly.

“But what kind of place is the underground labyrinth?”

I remembered.

Even during the Greek and Roman times, there was a labyrinth named ‘Taitalos’.

It was a maze surrounded by walls, but since it was underground, it must have been a cave.

But what was recorded in the book was different.

It is said to be another ecological labyrinth, but a completely different underground world.

As I was thinking about that, Norman smiled kindly and said,

“That place is a labyrinth. Also.”

The door opened and an unexpected stream of humid and fresh air flowed out.

“It is a different world where the laws of the world have been recreated.”

I looked through the door and opened my eyes wide.

It truly seemed like another world.

It’s definitely underground.

but.

“Is there a sky?”

Sky exists.

No, it was a lake like the sky.

What looked like the sky, as if ignoring gravity, was surrounded by a wide lake.

Something like a pterosaur flies around it and is eaten by a whale that emerges from the lake.

It is not a maze surrounded by walls, but a forest maze surrounded by majestic trees.

Unknown giant insects were crawling in groups.

A world where sacred power and mana are abundantly distributed and where forgotten ancient creatures live.

“This is Taitalos.”

I looked at Norman.

“It’s a place we call another world.”
