Talent-Swallowing Magician - Chapter 198
Episode 198:
Viscount Kuranciville,
the founder of the dragon, was confident.
‘If you give the justification to that guy Elric here and now, you will never be able to take the initiative. Then even the things I have will be taken away!’
When Elric tries to detain Viscount Curansibile and take away all of his authority by citing military law.
Viscount Curanciville is only moving his body and is no different from being imprisoned.
If that happens, the family soldiers will fall into Elric’s hands one by one.
In fact, this was the reason why Viscount Couransiville, who had a vicious personality but was famous for being cunning and cunning, had always taken unreasonable measures.
At this time, we were separated from the main army. An incompetent commander would gradually lose his reputation among his subordinates, but Elric was gaining trust and strengthening the unity of the army.
If things continued like this, all of the soldiers, including the soldiers, would be taken away. Count Calliger said he could just wait for the opportunity, but he was anxious that everything might be taken away before he could.
That may be because Viscount Curansiville gained power that way in the first place.
When the Star Mage fell and most of the main forces that made up Mervinger failed to return from the great battle.
Viscount Couransiville declared independence by taking many of his distraught vassals and soldiers under his command.
At a time of great confusion, he was the first to kick down Mervinger’s door.
As a result, ever since Elric Mervinger began to be called the hero of Lascent, he began to feel anxious in his heart, whether he knew it or not.
The delusion that Oudden Mervinger’s grandson might try to strangle him.
A curse that says the ghosts left behind by the Star Mage may target one’s heart.
That was why, when Count Calliger first asked him to hold hands, he readily agreed even though he didn’t like it.
To make sure Mervinger never wakes up again.
The purpose was to trample down the buds before they turned into trees.
But that wasn’t it.
This guy was not a bud that could be trampled.
It was already a huge tree.
It’s a huge tree that has become so dense that it can easily cover at least one of them!
Paaaaang!
As soon as Viscount Curanciville collided with Elric, he had to once again harden his expression.
hard.
That was the first thing that occurred to me.
I knew that he was growing at an absurd rate as time went by.
Looking at him like this now, he has grown even more compared to just a short time ago.
Should I say that I have overcome a wall?
I don’t know the exact circle, but it seemed like there was at least one more.
They say he broke one of the Red Lion’s four swords.
It seems like he wasn’t really exaggerating when he said he had taken over a fortress all by himself.
“Viscount Curanciville Twerk. “After ignoring the commander’s command authority recognized by the imperial family and refusing a legitimate court-martial, are you now planning a military mutiny?”
Elric screamed as he let the ice spear in his hand fall down.
It’s literally like frost.
In fact, the cold wind began to form a whirlwind around him and gradually spread to the side. My skin ached as if a blizzard was about to rage at any moment.
“I will ask again. Are you trying to start a military rebellion?”
Viscount Curansiville became increasingly anxious as he watched Elric insist on following legal procedures until the end. I got nervous.
Anyway, the attempt to contact Prince Zereitz failed. Whether you sit quietly and have military power taken away little by little, or get caught and have it taken away, the result is the same.
In that case, they first needed to secure new recruits for Elric and manipulate the cause to their advantage.
“【Fire Trouble Zone】.”
So Viscount Couransiville didn’t say anything.
Among the magic that I had memorized in advance, I started by casting the one I used the most.
Hahaha!
Black and red flames soared in concentric circles around Viscount Quarnciville
.
The firepower was so strong that it was sharp and painful, as if dozens of soldiers had raised their weapons with upright blades in the midst of the flames.
In the past, if Count Franz was called Mervinger’s ‘Wall’, Viscount Twerk symbolized the ‘Spear Knife’.
This was because all of the magic possessed by the author of Twerk was a strong offensive magic.
Viscount Curanciville was already a War Mage with not many skilled fighters competing for superiority, except for the Six Mangsung.
“In an old legend that few people remember anymore, this place is said to have helped the founder establish the foundation of Mervinger, a place that inherited the tradition of ‘summer’ among the four seasons.”
Viscount Curanciville was holding a red crystal ball as big as his face in one hand.
It was a type of magic staff that activated all of his magic. There were numerous fires burning there.
For a moment, Elric could tell that it was a very old ‘relic’.
That’s why I listened to some of what he said.
Was it summer orthodoxy?
It seemed that the orthodoxy of the Four Seasons had been continued in faint traces throughout the surroundings without his knowledge.
“It is impossible to compare him with Mervinger, who can be said to have forgotten orthodoxy as there are no teachings left from his founder. From now on, I, the successor of ‘Summer’ and the one who inherited the Mervinger blood from my grandmother, will punish you for walking down the wrong path.”
With just a few words, Viscount Curanciville changed this fight from a ‘military rebellion’ to a ‘political struggle within the family’.
Even though Elric was laughing at the behavior of this guy who was deliberately trying to secure a cause in this situation.
On the other hand, I was able to have an unexpected desire to win.
“Major sin?”
If you can call yourself the successor to ‘Summer’.
“try.”
Wouldn’t it be possible to check whether the traces are really still intact?
“If I can.”
Hahaha!
Viscount Curansiville held his crystal ball high. Then, the fire rose up like a huge tsunami and immediately hit Elric.
Faaaat –
Elric kicked the ground. He wanted to become a beam of light and defy the tidal wave of fire.
As ‘North Wind’, one of the powers, was activated, some of the ghosts that were deeply asleep in the magic circuit were awakened.
“【Rest in peace】.”
Tsutsutsu –
Maybe it’s because I’ve been using so many powers during my training, but now even trying to possess doesn’t take up that much magical power.
In addition, I found out later that the ghosts were also divided into very detailed ranks.
There were people at the top of the class chart, which was based on achievements and skills during life.
They were different from other ghosts.
Unlike those who just quietly listen and follow orders like soldiers.
They just quietly watched Elric and did not listen to orders.
It seemed as if he had a ‘personal doctor’.
Rather, he sometimes commanded other ghosts.
at that time. Elric could tell.
That they are not just Otto Hahn’s ordinary soldiers.
Even though they were with him, they were vassals and colleagues who stood shoulder to shoulder on an equal footing.
So Elric called them this.
Otto Hahn’s six generals.
It’s called ‘6 chapters of winter’.
* * *
When I first encountered Chapter 6 of Winter.
Elric had to think of many things.
All the other ghosts succeeded in eliciting their loyalty.
He proved his skills by winning a duel that could be called an ordeal.
But Winter Chapter 6 was different.
They did not respond well to Elric’s provocation to fight.
In the world of images. It was as if I was sitting on a separate ice throne and just watching him quietly.
It seemed as if they were saying that in order to get them to get up from their chairs, they would now have to show new qualifications.
So what are those qualifications?
After much deliberation, Elric’s decision was simple.
If you have proven your ‘skills’ as a family head to the soldiers, shouldn’t you show your ‘worth’ as a family head to the generals?
He said that he would be able to properly lead Mervinger.
And probably, each of the six people had different wants.
If this were an ordeal, it could be said to be an ordeal.
The problem was that it was difficult to figure out exactly what the test they were giving was.
Fortunately, Elric’s concerns could be resolved more easily than expected.
The being who sat at the very end of the six ice thrones had risen.
It seemed like I had to get recognition from them one by one, probably in reverse order of rank.
Unlike other ordinary ghosts, the ghost made of blue flames was wearing sturdy armor.
And in one hand, he was holding a huge flag that was several meters long.
There, the emblem symbolizing the Mervinger family and the winter seal left by Otto Hahn were drawn together.
-‘Nahatram, the flag of the white dragon’.
The ghost revealed his name like that.
Otto Hahn, the wise man of winter, always led the soldiers and whenever he attacked the enemy, he stood at the front of the line and waved the Mervinger flag loudly.
When he waved the flag, the heads of countless demons fell off. Therefore, the demons tried to avoid facing his flag as much as possible, but the flag he waved was so high and loud that it was naturally noticeable even from a very far away.
Nahatram did not say anything to Elric. Instead, Elric was able to slowly reflect on the thoughts he was exuding.
Nahatram said: In order to receive recognition, you must be able to stand at the forefront of the battlefield.
Just because you are the head of a family doesn’t mean you should be in the safe rear, but rather you should be at the forefront, encourage your soldiers and vassals, and know how to get along with them.
Do you have the confidence to do that?
Elric answered there.
I’m already doing that.
Even now, I am running ahead of everyone else and swinging my sword before anyone else.
Instead, I asked him if he had been watching this whole time and didn’t know about it.
Nahatram thought about it for a moment and then put the flagpole he was holding into Elric’s hand.
It didn’t mean I acknowledged it.
If what Elric said was true, it really meant that you should hold this flag and wave it loudly on the battlefield.
Also, it doesn’t end simply by shaking it.
He said that through this, he should be able to make his enemies realize how great Mervinger was. In other words, he said that fear should be the natural enemy of enemies.
On the other hand, he said that it should be a symbol of victory for the allies. He said that it should be the only symbol that allies can rely on and rest on in a battlefield where everything is confusing and tiring. The flagpole had to be a tree they could lean on, and the flag had to create a large shadow where they could rest.
Elric snatched the flag and answered that of course he would.
And now.
Paaaa!
Elric got the chance to wave that flag.
The enemy was Viscount Curansiville. A person who was originally an ally but has now become an enemy.
In that case, from now on, he had to become Viscount Curansibile’s fear and his natural enemy.
On the contrary, his allies were all the soldiers watching him. Ate Brian was all of the star species.
We had to instill in them the firm belief that ‘we will definitely win’. They had to be able to lean and lie down.
flag. It had to be itself.
Nahatram, the white dragon’s spirit, was possessed by Elric.
What he was holding in his hand was an ice spear, but to Elric’s eyes at this moment, it looked like the flagpole of a huge flag.
Kwaaaaang!
The ice spear was thrust forward.
On the surface, it seemed like a very simple stab, but the power was extremely powerful.
The tsunami of fire that seemed to swallow Elric in one fell swoop created a very large vent.
Beyond that.
I saw Viscount Curansiville’s eyes widen in disbelief.
“Did you say it was the successor to ‘Summer’?”
Looking at that guy.
The being, confused as to whether it was Elric or Nahatram, growled with a distorted face.
“That’s funny. “You can’t even reach her feet. You’re talking carelessly about having one of your mouths pierced.”
