Talent-Swallowing Magician - Chapter 201
Episode 201:
The founder of
dragons, dududu!
The road to the Holy Land.
A flag with a skull symbol, symbolizing the Black Skull, was waving behind a group of stars rushing forward, raising a cloud of dust.
“Is it cool?”
Hayes frowned at the words Black Skull leader Carrot said while looking at Elric running ahead of him in the distance.
“How cool is that? “I was so nervous the whole time I was watching it.”
The whole time Elric and Viscount Curanciville clashed.
Hayes clearly appeared to be wondering how many times to intervene or not. Because the hand that was handling the sledgehammer had been strained and released several times.
But in the end she didn’t come forward.
Fortunately, Elric overpowered Viscount Curansiville, and as a member of the Mervinger, she also tried to protect Elric’s authority as the head of the family.
“Still, what’s great is great. “How many people at that age have the dignity to control an organization like that?”
Karrot narrowed his eyes and stared at Elric’s back.
He, too, grew up as an orphan and learned the sword from a sailor, and while moving around in numerous mercenary groups and gathering friends to create a mercenary group, he saw many different types of people, and among them, many people who could be considered outstanding leaders.
Elric was by far the one who deserved to be ranked at the top.
It was true that he was immature and did not have an extreme side, perhaps because he was still young.
Rather, that aspect seemed even more heroic to young talents.
‘I think I would have done the same if I were ten years younger.’
There has already been a lot of change in the way people view Elric within Black Skull as a result of this incident.
Until now, I had heard many times from Hayes that he was a very ‘immature’ younger brother, so I couldn’t help but have a prejudice against him.
This time, the preconceptions were completely removed, and there were quite a lot of people who cast favorable views, saying, ‘Oh, it’s pretty good.’
It was true that Hayes was both happy and worried at the same time that his colleagues, whom he always called ‘brother’ and ‘sister’, regarded his younger sister so highly.
‘Elric…’
Hayes has quite a big age difference with Elric.
Therefore, he remembered more than Elric about the process of his family’s downfall during his childhood, and knew quite a bit about the details behind it.
How much uglier the imperial family was then than it is now.
How greedy the Count Franz family was.
How many places turned away from Mervinger’s umbrella because it no longer served them.
I had to watch it all closely and protect the young Elric among them.
So it was true that I naturally felt angry.
In the future, we will have to see and experience many more ugly things.
Because I knew very well how much it would hurt me in the process.
External and internal.
I knew that even though Elric had a gentle personality on the outside, he was very strong on the inside.
Still, is it greedy to hope that my younger brother doesn’t go down a very painful path?
“You know the future is more important, right?”
“That’s why I’m even more worried. “I’m such a troublemaker…”
“Hehe. “You’re worrying about something you don’t even care about.”
But unlike Hayes, who was anxious, Carrot thought there was absolutely no need to be like that.
“It’s demon hunting… this war might be more fun than I thought.”
It was a war he attended because his ‘father’ Sailor’s salvation was in the Red Lion Army.
Carrot thought there might be more interesting things to see.
perhaps.
‘These days, there have been a lot of people saying they want to stop moving around and settle down. ‘Maybe it’s not that bad.’
I often thought about how he would be horrified if Hayes found out, saying he was planning to turn it into a den of mercenaries.
Carrot tightened his grip on the horse’s reins.
“Hey!”

Meanwhile.
Like Black Skull, there was one more place where the evaluation of Elric changed.
“Everyone saw it, right?”
“….”
“….”
“….”
Kanata. The subordinate knights all kept their mouths shut at the words spoken by the Cheongyang Knight Commander of the Blue Lion Army’s Byle family.
“As always. “It was clearly revealed this time that the decision the head of the family made was not wrong.”
It was true that there was a lot of dissatisfaction with Elric secretly within the Vile family, including the Cheongyang Knights.
They thought that not only was it enough to expose the shame that the Byle family had suffered to the whole world, but by becoming co-inheritors of the Blue Hawk, they also took over the position of Blue Lion successor that should have gone to them.
The position of a lion is someone who holds a sword and walks martial arts, and is a position that everyone desires.
It was beyond their common sense that a wizard would take it.
Some even expressed the extreme opinion that it would be better to hold a group protest and force Hermann to change his decision.
However, Kanata, who would become the focal point each time, expressed opposition.
Don’t talk nonsense.
Never object to the matriarch’s decision.
and.
What Kanata said today was exactly right.
Because Elric personally showed that he has a natural talent in martial arts.
No, it wasn’t just talent.
He also seemed to have some degree of personal martial theory.
All while subduing Viscount Curanciville. There was nothing in each movement that did not contain the essence of the martial arts taught by the Blue Hawk, and nothing that was not developed or applied.
It was no secret that the blue hawk was in such a good mood at the time that he had no idea how to keep his mouth shut.
and.
When Kanata himself was told that he was going to compete against Elric in skill, he was not confident that he would win.
If you compare their martial arts skills, they are equal.
If you allow magic… you will inevitably lose.
That was the conclusion Kanata reached.
Even though he is also an expert in the 4 chains who reached the rank of Sword Master.
No, it occurred to me that thinking that we were equal might be dangerous.
This was a conclusion reached because we did not know what entity Elric was possessing at the time.
So, to some extent, it could have been an illusion.
It was true that he was excellent because it was also a type of skill that Elric had.
“What did you say about the virtues of a knight?”
When Kanata asked the adjutant next to him, the adjutant answered loudly while holding his back while riding.
“It’s chivalry!”
“So what are the main tenets of chivalry?”
“Loyalty to the lord and the imperial family, discipline to hone one’s skills, and justice to protect the powerless people.”
“Never forget again.”
Although those words were directed to the adjutant, it was impossible not to know that they were a warning to the entire knighthood.
“We follow the lord, the imperial family, and the people. Those are the virtues that a knight must have. “Don’t forget that it was not enough to shake the family by doubting the head of the family in the past, and we almost created such a situation again this time due to our wrong judgment.”
“….”
“….”
“….”
“It is good to worry about the future of your family. This does not mean that even when the Lord wants to go down the wrong path, one must remain silent out of fear of His wrath. Still, it means that at least once, we should look back on why the lord made such a decision and whether we have been too narrow-minded and closed-minded.”
The knights were busy exchanging glances with each other.
Because each word of Kanata’s voice was filled with power.
“So what are we supposed to do here?”
“We need to make fewer mistakes.”
“To do that?”
“We must win.”
“how?”
“You just have to run harder than anyone else and swing your sword harder than anyone else. In this way, we can prove to the whole world that the matriarch’s decision was never wrong.”
Hermann has proven time and time again that his decisions were not wrong.
Now, then, it was time for them to become Herman’s will and sword and show Herman’s decision to the world.
To do that.
Now I had to acknowledge Elric and become his person.
It was to become his banner and fly, and it was to be his sword and crush his enemies.
Kanata looked back at the knights.
Under the deeply pressed helmet. Their eyes were shining brightly.
Twenty years ago. It was a time when the Weil family had not yet broken out of the mold of a merchant family and did not receive much recognition from those around them.
At that time, there was a group of knights rushing out to show the world the glory and majesty of Hermann.
At the time, the scale was significantly smaller than it is now, and Kanata was just an ordinary knight.
Kanata felt strange because he felt like he had somehow returned to those times.
“In this war, we must be the number one contributor.”
“yes!”
“yes!”
Kanata’s command was like an absolute command to all the knights of the Byle family.
“All majors and achievements cannot be lost to a mere mercenary group, right?”
Everyone nodded when asked, “We can’t be pushed aside by Black Skull.”
“let’s go. “To fly the Blue Lion’s flag.”
They drove their feet vigorously.
The Blue Lion’s flag was waving.
Even more than a company owner. And to fill the sky bigger than the red lion we will face in the future.
Doo doo doo doo!
* * *
“hmm? What is it? “Why are they acting like this all of a sudden?”
Hermann suddenly felt a stinging sensation on his back, so he unconsciously turned his head back to look at his knights and was startled.
Because they were all radiating strong energy.
Because it was a long way to reach the battlefield, he had not yet made any gestures to boost the morale of his subordinates.
Suddenly, their motivation was kindled among themselves, and they were pouring out their speculations furiously.
“haha! Why are you so surprised? If everyone is going to run hard, we need to cheer them on. “Thanks to you, my children are now well lit.”
As the Blue Lion Army showed its strength, the Black Skull Army, the Company Army that was running next to them, also asked, ‘Why are they doing this?’ He looked at me with a curious face and then showed his strength even more.
So, the blue lion army again showed its motivation with a look on its face saying, ‘Look at these?’ and the company army also responded back.
Add to that the fighting spirit of the Borfur warriors who do not want to fall behind the imperial people.
Now, the entire atmosphere at the foot of the forest was trembling as I rode the horse.
Although it is much better for morale to be at the top than to be at the bottom.
It was also true that I was worried because if it was too much, an accident could occur.
But Sailor was like, “What’s wrong with that?”
That’s because the power of youthful energy was so great.
“Rather than that, let’s talk about the demons who occupy the sacred dragon’s nest.”
Hermann nodded at Sailor’s words.
Sarnai, who was sitting on the saddle of Sailor’s horse next to him, slowly opened his mouth.
“There was an oracle a few months ago.”
“trust?”
“yes. “It is an oracle handed down from someone I serve.”
Sailor’s eyes sparkled. Herman also seemed quite surprised because he had already heard that Sarnai was an apostle of the god called ‘God of the Sky’.
That is because there were not many cases where God directly expressed his opinion on this earth.
“What was it about?”
“It said that after a thousand years, the dragon’s master would appear.”
