Talent-Swallowing Magician - Chapter 229
Episode 229
: After hearing the news that Mervinger’s flag was hung at
Azazel Akran Fortress.
Augustine and the Senate, including Sean, began to move independently to find Elric.
Of course, the Red Lions and the barbarian camp also tried to stop them somehow.
The Neresta family, which can be said to be the rulers of the Magic Tower, has brought out its hidden power.
That alone was an issue that made them very nervous.
However, the power of the Senate was much greater than they imagined.
No match.
Augustine personally demonstrated why such a modifier was added to his name.
Every time a white night was created, numerous enemies were completely erased.
Although he did not show up much to the world, he achieved the highest level of achievement among all the deer warriors, so it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a ‘disaster’.
Also, where is that?
The Senate that followed Augustine was equally amazing.
It’s just that it wasn’t clearly revealed because it was tightly bound up in an organization called the Senate.
Among them, there were many famous people who once terrified the continent.
Giliti Lens, who was also a former member of the Free Revolutionary Army, was always at the forefront, and other seniors also casually showed off the results of the research they had been doing while holed up in their rooms.
I’m devastated.
There was nothing that could block their unstoppable advance.
The entire castle wall was destroyed. Raise the dead. They sprayed a fog full of poison…
and no enemy could even get close to them.
‘Father’s thoughts… were right.’
Always watching them from the side. Sean thought.
‘These people should not have been released carelessly.’
Guy said that the Senate should be released when the situation was most extreme.
It wasn’t simply because their power was great.
This was because once released, it was absolutely impossible to control from then on.
‘If there wasn’t a goal of saving Elric, everyone would have just gone wild. If that were the case…!’
Sean had to stop thinking because he felt that if he thought about it any longer, it would only be disrespectful to the elders of the family.
but.
I knew one thing.
I don’t think I will be able to treat them like normal anymore from now on.
monster.
In Sean’s eyes, the elders now looked like that.
And the Senate was a devil’s den where many such monsters were concentrated.
‘Then what about Elric, who became a co-creator of this Demon Gul…!’
Sean sighed without realizing it.
And I tried to come to my senses several times.
You must guide these monsters to their destination. There couldn’t have been a single mistake there.
Only then could Elric, who was trapped in the middle of enemy lines, be ‘saved’.
however.
-It is said that the barbarian supply route has been blocked!
-Recapture Ketline Fortress! Mervinger’s flag has been hung on all four major fortresses of Wynz Frontier Province!
-It is said that the special unit that the Red Lion had hastily deployed to stop the Star Wars was annihilated…!
-There was quite a bit of commotion between the Red Lion Army and the Barbarian camp! Stop moving west!
I thought it would be important to be able to understand the situation of the war while going deep into the empire’s border area, so I received reports of victory every time from the communication port I received from Guy.
A series of victories for the Black Skulls, the star warlords of the Byle family.
It did not end with simply taking control of the Akran Fortress, but the rear of the Red Lion Army and the barbarians was being cleared out at a rapid pace.
Thanks to this, news continued to spread from the communications zone that the enemy was in considerable confusion, supply lines were almost cut off, and the stockpiled military rations were dwindling at a rapid pace.
‘Fuck.’
Sean’s review at that time was very simple.
‘It’s a shame to come here to rescue him. Even if I just left it alone, it would have come back on its own.’
I was so worried that I seemed to have forgotten for a moment what kind of person Elric was.
He was a human who could survive even if dropped into an empty desert.
Yet at the same time, I was moved.
‘You really did it.’
No wonder he was so moved.
It seems like just yesterday that we were pulling our hair out while studying together at the academy.
Elric, who had been criticized as a disgrace to the magic clan, was now shaking up the continent.
It was all considered as if it were his own work.
News about Elric continued after that.
-Once the star group completes its mission, it disappears like the wind just as it did when it appeared.
-For this reason, it is still not known where their headquarters are located. It is said that even the Red Lion is having quite a bit of trouble because of this.
-There was a feeling that the Inspection Bureau had figured out something, but the information was not shared.
-As a result of our own judgment, there was speculation that the Star Wars army had established a base around the Akran Fortress that was first captured or the surrounding area.
I am confident that the intelligence power of the Neresta Intelligence Department is not far behind that of the Inspector General.
As a result of the numerous experts there putting their heads together to guess, the main opinion was that, contrary to the activities of Elric and the Star Wars, the main group did not seem to move much.
I could never figure out why.
-The main opinion of the Ministry of Information was that the true purpose of the Star Clan Army was to capture the Winds Territory.
-On the other hand, there are a few opinions that say they are doing this to hide something…
Judging from the activities of the Star Wars so far, their goal seems to be to attack the Red Lion Army and Winds who entered deep into the mainland of the empire. After cutting the link between the states and isolating each one.
It seemed like they were trying to swallow up the Winds Margin, which was left alone like an isolated island.
In fact, there was an opinion that all of this might be a smokescreen operation to hide something.
and.
-It is said that Elric Mervinger is rarely seen…
When Sean received this report, his heart sank.
It was for this reason that we increased our speed to arrive at Akran Fortress as quickly as possible.
and.
From the moment I entered Akran Fortress, I could feel strong waves of magical energy.
From then on, Sean and the elders were very tense and did not have any conversation.
Because I could tell that something unusual was about to happen around here.
Then Gility Lens shouted.
I found Elric!
“Where are you?”
Augustine opened his eyes and asked urgently.
“This place!”
“Let’s go there.”
Augustine and several elders who were present jumped up from their seats.
As the levitation magic was activated, their bodies floated in the air.
“Wonju!”
Sean urgently called Augustin.
“It can be dangerous, so you should get all the other old people to join you before you come.”
After Augustine dissuaded Sean, he disappeared somewhere along with Giliti. It was at the foot of a mountain far away from Akran Fortress.
“….”
Sean gritted his teeth.
The hand holding the reins of the carriage tightened.
Why don’t you know that you were left out because of your lack of skills?
The fact that I couldn’t be of any help to Elric when he really needed it just stuck in my mind like a thorn.
‘me too…!’
Therefore, Sean thought that he should somehow increase his strength in order to be of some help to Elric.
On the other hand, I desperately hoped that nothing would happen to him.

“Are you here, father?”
Hermann nodded to Isabelle’s words and put his helmet down on the table.
“okay.”
“Did anything happen?”
“I feel like their resistance is getting much stronger these days.”
“It’s probably because I felt like I was being pushed into a corner. “It’s just the last resistance, so if you don’t give it a chance, it will collapse on its own.”
Hermann nodded.
Since I had never failed in doing things as my daughter had pointed out, I thought her guess would be right this time too.
“More than that. “What is Elric’s condition?”
At that moment, Isabel’s face darkened slightly.
“It’s still… the same.”
“It tastes like death.”
Almost a month has already passed since Elric was immersed in Azazel’s magical energy.
In the meantime, the Star Servants, following the instructions left by Elric and under Isabelle’s command, devastated the entire Winds border.
Thanks to this, their fame has now spread beyond the empire and across the continent.
In fact, the leadership was feeling very frustrated.
Because Elric had no intention of waking up.
If I had been completely infected with demonic energy, I would have given up.
Even though he was spewing out demonic energy, his complexion was still the same.
The reality is that even if you want to help, you cannot.
No, even if I couldn’t help, it wouldn’t be so frustrating if I could at least know the exact details of what happened to Elric.
The fact that there was no wizard as good as Elric in the Star Wars continued to bother me.
Fortunately, there is a safe house left behind by the Grigori, making it easy to hide the troops from the Red Lion Army.
The demons were the only ones that had any use.
‘Anyway, it should end quickly.’
At that time, I was about to sigh out of frustration.
thud!
Hermann suddenly felt a tremendous sense of intimidation weighing down the air, and he stood on his knees.
‘What the hell is this…!’
Could it be that the demon lord Belot who has been chasing him all this time has appeared?
Or perhaps something even worse than that had appeared.
Even so, there were opinions that Grigori’s response was too lackluster considering that the General Assembly had disappeared.
I thought that maybe a new demon lord had appeared.
And if that were true, he would never be inferior to himself.
So I quickly put my hand to my waist.
[What does that mean? Does this mean my student got hurt somewhere?]
It was a familiar voice.
“Omg…!”
[Answer. What happened to my student?
Augustine’s voice was calm.
But Hermann found it even more horrifying.
‘Is this the author’s only power that can stand against the Golden Lion…?’
In the meantime, I thought I had developed quite a close relationship with Augustine by sharing my interests with him. Somehow, I felt like I was finally getting a glimpse of his true colors.
A power that even he, who prides himself on having begun to foresee a new horizon, cannot easily estimate.
“…Come outside first. “I have a lot to say here too.”
No sooner had he finished speaking.
Tsutsutsu!
The space on the other side split apart and Augustine slowly walked out.
Tap, tap, tap.
It was a quiet step, but with each step, it felt like something huge was approaching towards me.
“It would be better to explain it properly to this old man so that there is no misunderstanding whatsoever.”
Augustine’s eyes shone brightly.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt like the whole world was turning pure white.
‘White chestnuts’ that eat black chestnuts.
It was the moment when the invincible monster opened its eyes.
Wizard who swallowed talent
