Swordmaster’s Youngest Son - Chapter 366
Chapter 366,
Chapter 111. Trace (6)
[There is no plan. It just has a purpose.]
The purpose Sheila said was no different.
Solderlet To help Jin, the Contractor of Thousand Years, safely reach the fourth tomb of Temar.
[Myla. It seems he didn’t want me to keep my promise to Solderlet. other children too. Everyone thinks that we, the descendants of the fairies, are making useless sacrifices. Or you think you’re holding on to meaningless hopes.]
“So you’ve effectively overthrown Sheila and let Mayla take over the forest?”
[Yes. While waiting for you was so uncertain and so unclear about the reward… there are those who say they’ll give us anything we want for just a little bit of information. In a way, betrayal is natural.]
“What do the descendants of the fairies want?”
[Recovering our true selves,]
Sheila went on, in a forlorn voice.
[…I’ll talk about this in detail later when I get a chance. For now, the priority is to overcome this situation and lead you to the fourth tomb of Temar.]
Piri riri…!
Shining particles spread from Sheila’s wings. The area brightened and the surface of the tangled trees was revealed. The inside of the dark cave felt like the internal organs of a gigantic beast.
[Luru Miru.]
[Yes.]
[His fourth tomb does not exist in this cave.]
Sheila had long predicted the betrayal of Mayla and her people.
Therefore, the true location of the fourth tomb was not revealed to anyone. Except for Sheila, all the descendants of the fairies believe that Temar’s tomb exists at the end of this cave.
[Then where…?]
[The red lake. It is the water source of the Wantaramo Forest.]
The Red Lake was the largest source of water for the Wantaramo Forest, leading to the Yulpi River outside. All life in the forest, including the descendants of the fairies, depended on the red lake to live.
[We need to get there as soon as possible. The contractor must first reach his grave before the pursuers arrive. Jin Runcandel to summon the Red Jade Tomb.]
Sheila learned that Jin was Shuri’s contractor after hearing about it from the Myoin Tribe.
Hwaat!
[Mya!]
The summoned Shuri ran with everyone on her back. Once you move to the end of the cave, you can go to the red lake without being noticed.
The cave was deeper than Jin and Valeria had imagined. Even on the Shuri running at maximum speed, it took more than 30 minutes.
By the time we reached the end, we could see a huge door made of magic.
‘It’s similar to the door in the secret library in the stormy basement.’
Like that door, if there is no trigger word, it can only be destroyed with great skill. It was a much more powerful door than the stormy underground door.
When Sheila spoke the tongue in the language of the descendants of the fairies, the door opened, revealing what was inside.
[Mayla thinks that beyond this door lies my crown, Temar’s fourth tomb, and the great legacy left by our ancestors…]
Beyond the door was just an empty space.
Only a desolate landscape with unpolished rocks replacing the wall and a bleak wind blowing from unknown sources greeted the party.
[There is nothing here. I was thinking of showing this empty landscape to Mayla someday when she becomes an adult. So I was hoping he would understand. How did we become such an empty race?]
Mayla’s age is over 2,000 years old, but Sheila thought she was no different from the newly born descendants of the fairies.
Seeing her brother make the wrong choices because he didn’t grow up, and the fact that he might have to kill him, was, of course, painful for Sheila.
Drooling…!
The door is closed.
[I have lost my senses for a while. keep going From here on, I think you’ll need your abilities, Lulu and Miru.]
What Sheila said was the dimensional ability unique to the Myohuman.
[Is it okay to make a passage leading to the Red Forest?]
[Yes. If time permits, make a path to confuse the pursuers.]
[Approximately how much time is left?]
Upon hearing that, Jin and Valeria thought the same thing.
‘Where is the magic tower closest to the Kiken Empire?’
‘Where was the magic tower of Ziple closest to here?’
3 towers.
came to the same conclusion. The 3 Mage Tower is located on Rachan Island between the Lutero Magic Federation and Bemont Sea, so if Jiple received a signal and sent in manpower, it would have been there.
“About three hours.”
“It will probably take three hours. Assuming that Mylar, a descendant of a fairy, can deliver news to Zipple within an hour.”
Jin and Valeria answered at the same time and looked at each other.
[Both of them are faster than me. I was confused because I had forgotten the geography of humans and had lived for a long time.]
[You can even make a maze in three hours.]
Ruru and Miru said confidently, but Sheila shook her head.
[But there is one fact missing in their calculations. Do you know the wands of the lords of the Ziple Tower?]
The staffs of the lords of the mages.
The wand had a special rune engraved on it. The annoying runes that Valeria in her previous life and the current one had experienced.
“Did Ziffle inscribe the runes that summon the wizards of the Mage Tower in Wantaramo Forest?”
[Obviously it will. In the past, when Kelliac came to ask me to make a king, he gave Mayla a wand as a gift. I guessed that the staff had the same runes engraved on it.]
Myla’s betrayal had already happened decades ago. Of course, there must be at least one device for immediate calling.
[Two hours. That’s the time we have left. Lulu Miru. Is it possible within that?]
[I’ll try.]
Ruru and Miru pulled out what appeared to be claws from their arms.
[Jin Runkandel, you should be really good to us from now on.]
Ruru smiled.
However, Jin could read the regret hidden behind that smile.
“…sick of it.”
As Jin said, it was his own claws bestowed by the cat god a long time ago on the Cat Humans.
[that’s right. Even in the Cave of the Small Beasts, these gods were used to protect you and the Beasts. Fortunately, there are two left.]
One of them was Neruga, and Ruru and Miru had one.
The divine object is the only means through which the Myoin tribe can communicate with the previous cat gods.
The Myoin tribe is using most of it for Jin and small beastmen.
“Can’t you open the road with Sheila-sama’s power?”
Jin said as if he was frustrated.
What made up the cave was, at best, a tree. There was no way he couldn’t cut it with Jin’s power.
[If you recklessly break down the cave, you will get lost because of the trees. Mayla has control of the Wantaramo Forest, so when the trees that make up the cave start to run wild, I have no choice but to lose my direction. I’m sorry.]
I’m sorry.
Jin hated hearing that every time he was in a situation like this. I couldn’t understand why people who had sacrificed for a thousand years said they were sorry.
However, he knew very well that even if he vented his anger for no reason or wrinkled his expression needlessly just because he was upset, he would only make the people who sacrificed him more distraught.
For this reason, Chimi held back something in her heart and made a calm look.
I had the heart that I would show the results that deserved it so that they would not feel sorry for themselves.
And Valeria looked at Jean like that and thought:
‘I was very disappointed when I first met him, but the more I look at him, the more he seems to be a human with a deep corner. For some reason, even when dealing with me, it doesn’t seem to be full of intentions to use me…’
Valeria moved to the side of Lulu and Miru.
“I will help.”
[huh? Creating a subspace and forming a dimensional door?]
“Yes.”
[Thank you for your heart, but it’s too complicated for humans.]
“Cat people’s spatial ability is close to power, but a certain part is made of magic, right? It reads the flow and assists only in the areas where magic is needed.”
[Uh, that’s it. The one who just waits quietly. But how did you know that our abilities also include magic power?]
“Because you all smell of magic power. It can’t be so thickly permeated unless it’s people who usually use magic.”
[Magical power has a smell?]
“Just try it out and tell me right away if you find it gets in the way. ‘Cause I’ll quietly fall Or are you worried that I might find out the secret of the Myo-human powers?”
[No, it’s not like that…]
As soon as Valeria sat down, Lulu and Miru looked at her and Miru alternately and shrugged. He must be in the way…with that kind of face.
He looked at Jin as if to stop him.
However, since Jin was not in a position to treat her as a subordinate, he shook his head.
[I can’t. I get it. Instead, if you tell me you’re in the way, you have to get out of here right away. I mean there is no time.]
“Okay.”
Ruru and Miru carefully rubbed the cat god’s claws and muttered an unknown language.
Then, like when Nehru opened the third tomb, a mysterious purple aura began to spread all over the place, but inside it, as Valeria had said, magical energy was mixed.
‘It’s a fact I didn’t know at all, but did you know at a glance that the Myo-humans also use magical powers?’
Indeed, Valeria was a person worthy of being called ‘teacher’.
‘Besides, it must be magic I’ve never seen before, so I’ll just look at the flow and assist it?’
This time, he had no choice but to doubt Valeria.
It’s only natural that it feels absolutely impossible even for the genius among geniuses.
However, Valeria was reading the flow of magical power that the Myo-humans were unfolding so naturally, as if she were laughing at her worries.
He had already injected his own magical energy into it, even accelerating the formation of dimensional portals and subspaces more quickly.
[This is possible?]
[Hey, what the hell are you!?]
Ruru and Miru looked at Valeria in a fright.
“You said it would be possible.”
Valeria, who answered calmly, was sweating like rain.
He was doing his best to read the flow of magical power.
The robe soaked quickly, but the heat radiating from her body was so great that the dye melted away.
Before long, Valeria’s red hair was exposed.
Sheila couldn’t take her eyes off her hair, her face lost in thought.
