Solo Max-Level Newbie - Chapter 246

Episode 246. Grand banquet for heroes

“What do you mean by that?”

Chun Yoo-seong’s eyebrows curled in a reverse shape.

Those above them must mean beings who are worthy of divine power.

I didn’t understand what it meant to be unknown to them.

“Do you remember Antrad, a mid-level demon?”

“It’s the skeleton gourd that made the fort a mess.”

“Yes. He.”

“I remember it being a pretty powerful demon. But what does that have to do with the guys upstairs?”

“To summon that demon, we need to collect the cursed relics. However, their relics weren’t perfect enough to manifest Antrad. The place wasn’t the right place either.”

Compared to poor conditions, an absurdly strong guy jumped out.

And that’s because he has quite a bit of his body’s power.

and.

This meant only one thing.

“Someone used transcendental power to help… Is this what you mean?”

“That’s right. And this kind of thing is not something the Godheads can do. There’s no good reason.”

I like demons running rampant, but I don’t like going rampant by forcefully intervening in the system.

In fact, everyone is like that.

You’ll have much more to lose than to gain.

“It’s the manager who helped the demons. That’s probably on a very high line. Maybe it’s the highest place.”

Jinhyeok looked at the night sky reflected in the window.

The top floor of the tower, which cannot be seen from here.

There will be absolutes contemplating everything under the tower.

“A senior manager… involved.”

Chun Yu-seong’s face hardened.

Because this word means too heavy.

And because he knew that the higher he climbed the tower, the higher the danger would be.

I couldn’t help but feel the cold blood flowing through my veins.

“What are we going to do next?”

“Well, first of all, we should enjoy today.”

“what?”

“Didn’t you just come to the middle level and fight like crazy? The demons got in the way before you could rest properly in the fort. It’s enough just to recognize that there’s someone trying to stab you in the back.”

“You talk as if there is a way.”

“I have a few things in mind. We’ll have to see if they work.”

“Anyway, your confidence is astonishing whenever I see it.”

The opponent is a top manager.

It is the transcendental body that oversees everything related to the tower in the same position as the gods.

But what is it? this confidence?

“But… I don’t know why, but I feel like I can somehow get out of the worst situation with you.”

food.

Chun Yuseong laughed for the first time.

It was a soft smile that warmed the heart.

“I take care of the welfare of the employees for sure. So don’t worry too much. I will protect my people even if others don’t know.”

“Yeah. Like you said, it wouldn’t hurt to enjoy today.”

Isn’t it the deceased person in front of me who has solved all the problems that I thought impossible until now?

There was no doubt that there would be a breakthrough this time, too.

Because that was the player he knew, Jinhyeok.

It was then.

“Ugh. I thought I was going to die because it was so annoying.”

Elise approached with a tired face.

Beside him were Teresa and Andrea.

“What’s going on?”

“They said they’d rather go dancing while the weirdos flirt or go for a night drink by the lake.”

“There were some people who calmly said, ‘Cheers to your eyes’.”

He let out a long sigh as he recalled the horrible moments between Elise and Teresa.

I didn’t know because I was busy talking with Chun Yoo-seong, but it seemed like he had a pretty harsh time in his own way.

“Hehe. That’s because the unnies are so pretty.”

Andrea smiled brightly.

Mmm. Certainly, if it were the two of them right now, the nobles would be impatient.

In contrast to the silver-haired Elise in a black dress, Teresa with blonde hair in a white dress stood out wherever she was presented.

Ellis and Andrea, who looked like sisters, were also there, so it was only natural that it was going on like this.

“Still, I managed to get through that many people.”

“Well, you gave me good advice with nice words.”

“In words?”

“Yes. In words.”

Hmm….

How hard is it to believe.

Can’t you imagine that this guy refused in a friendly tone?

Then, Andrea told Jinhyeok the truth.

“Ellis-unnie also spoke loudly, but to be precise… Theresa-unnie released ‘energy’.”

“…!”

Could it be that he wrote ‘fallen’?

Jinhyuk swallowed dry saliva.

Certainly, if there was a blackened Teresa, it would be difficult for ordinary people to handle that energy.

‘Because the black version is to the point where I feel burdened, to be honest.’

Goosebumps rose up all over my body as I imagined the two lofty queens spraying terrifying energy.

after a while

“Ah! Everyone is gathered. I wanted to have a drink with you, but there are so many piles of work.”

“The main characters of the banquet were in the most remote corner, so it was quite difficult to find.”

When Abraham and Pesis joined, all the members gathered except for Wolyeong, who was hiding in the shadows.

＊＊＊

In a comfortable atmosphere.

Fine wine and delicious snacks added flavor to the conversation.

I’ve spent so much hectic time, so the moment now feels even sweeter.

As the atmosphere matured to some extent, Ebraham, who was drunk, spoke to Jinhyeok.

“I gave up everything else for the sake of the cause of the empire’s existence. I thought that it was enough if I could only protect the skeleton of the empire no matter how many things I sacrificed. However, you alone have achieved achievements that cannot be compared to mine. I made it.”

In the words of complicated feelings….

Thank you, I’m sorry, and I’m sorry for myself.

at the same time.

Sreung!

The ceremonial rapier that was worn around the waist was pulled out.

“It’s an empire’s unique courtesy to those who have received favor.”

I received a grace that I couldn’t repay even if I repaid it for the rest of my life.

It also reminded me of the pride and self-esteem that had been lost for a long time.

Jinhyeok was the hero and benefactor of the empire.

[Ebraham activates ‘Knight’s Confidence’.]

At that moment, a warm energy embraced the inside of the banquet hall.

The golden petals, embodied in energy, began to fall from the ceiling one by one.

It is a beautiful sight.

But more surprising than that was the sound that had disappeared before I knew it.

Even the sound of chatting. The sight of the interior where all the sounds of the musicians’ instruments had stopped.

Nobles are bowing down and showing their respect.

The mage master leading the white tower and the knights leading the red cavalry.

The guards who protect the imperial family and the heads of numerous famous families.

Everyone expressed their gratitude in their own way.

Reinhardt, who was on the podium in the center, also looked at Jinhyeok with emotion.

[The Empire grants you ‘Honorary titles’.]

[‘The Giants’ Fortress’ is upgraded to the status of a ‘Principality’ that guarantees its independent status from the Empire!] [You have

accomplished an amazing feat.]

[This job will be on the ‘Hall of Fame’ tomorrow.]

Status windows appeared one after another.

‘Giving a duchy… status to an honorary title.’

For an empire with a strict caste system, it was an unprecedented reward.

While Jinhyeok was flustered, Pesis slowly opened his mouth this time.

“I also found this work very interesting. The Corporation of the Dead. An emerging force composed of only prominent members.”

If there is a force that is talked about the most within the Tower right now, it must be this place.

so that.

“I’m really looking forward to what’s going on. He’ll probably establish himself as a force capable of bringing a great storm to the Tower. It’s worth coming here just to see its legendary beginnings.”

[Pesis’ favorability has risen to a very high level.]

Phesis’ favorability has also gone up.

I attended the banquet with the intention of eating something delicious while relaxing, but…

‘Unexpected rewards keep pouring in.’

I thought that summoning the first Reinhardt was a divine move.

It was because of his speech that the nobles could reflect on their mistakes.

And when he saw Ellis, who had made it possible, he smiled happily without even realizing it.

“Why are you laughing badly?”

Alice opened her rabbit eyes.

“No, it’s just because it’s so commendable. After all, I thought that I didn’t get the position of head of Ataraxia for free.”

“Heh. Now I’m finally recognizing my true worth. I’m like this now. I’m a vampire that everyone used to line up to talk to at least once.”

“Yes, yes.”

Jinhyeok matched Alice’s rhythm and stroked her hair.

“Ah. Come to think of it, what did you mean by what you said at the grave?”

“huh?”

“Te… Sensio Te Arfem? You know the spell you used when calling out the invitation.”

It seems like an imperial language, but it doesn’t seem to have much use for it, so I didn’t study it separately.

I guess I barely understood the word empire.

“Ah… that?”

Alice waved her hand as if it was nothing.

“Only those with the blood of the imperial family can protect the empire. What does this mean?

“…Hmm. He was a pretty cool guy. The first emperor.”

“It wasn’t bad. He wasn’t even talkative.”

“I have a question, can I ask one more question?”

“Huh? Ask me.”

“The reason he died is because you drained all his blood, didn’t he?”

A grand sword master could live to be over 200 years old, but I wonder why his lifespan was a bit short.

Perhaps the culprit was this vampire…

Elise smiled brightly.

“Oh my God. For some reason, I think that’s your sign tonight.”

The cold sinking air.

It is a night when the fangs look especially sharp.

＊＊＊

The banquet that lasted until dawn was over.

Everyone got drunk and satiated and went back to their respective quarters.

The strings of tension loosened as if he would forget all the fatigue for this day.

Right then.

Tok… tok.

Jinhyeok carefully woke Pesis from a sound sleep.

“Ummm, heck… Gee, Jinhyeok-nim? What are you doing at this hour?”

Pescis freaked out and got up from his seat.

Jin-hyeok appeared by his bedside with an ominous smile on his face, so it had to be.

If it had been Chun Youseong instead of Pesis, he might have pulled out his sword on the spot.

Jinhyuk lowered his voice.

“From now on, please go for a short walk with me. There is a place I really want to go.”

“Yes? A walk? This night? Where is the place you really want to go to…”

Pesis made a nonchalant expression.

“I want to go to the emperor’s tomb once again.”

“Wow, the emperor’s tomb? No, why the hell are you going there again?” “There is something I absolutely need to get, but

I couldn’t bring

it because I was too distracted before.

” It’s not robbery! What the hell are you looking at me for!”

Pesis’s face turned red at Jinhyeok’s angry remark.

“I’m sorry. Well, Jin-hyeok, who has now become the Grand Duke of the principality, would do such a thing…”

“Please say it’s a long-term rental.”

“Yes?” ”

It was an unavoidable decision due to the international situation and resource conflict.”

I wanted to ask what kind of nonsense bullshit I was talking about, but I instinctively realized that I had already fallen into a swamp that I could not get out

of

. If you tell the imperial family about quite a few things , they’ll just give it to you, but wouldn’t it be better to just ask for it?”

Most of all, even the current emperor wouldn’t know how to get there.”

“Because even the emperor doesn’t know… can’t it?”

An earthquake occurred in Pesis’s pupil. Yes,

I thought Pesis would know.

After all, there was only one person in the tower who could earn the nickname of a great explorer

. The dragon slayer sword that lies dormant in the empire. What about the rumors about ‘Balmung’?”
