Chapter 145 Heaven (5)
“It’s not Atji’s blood?”
“It’s just a possibility, but,”
Dier put his hand on the blood again, but again he couldn’t reach it.
“I can’t think of any other reason why you wouldn’t let me touch this.”
“This blood is the culprit’s blood?”
Frontier thought to himself as he asked back:
It’s a possible story. It’s even more so because he’s the one who fought Ajie the most. He can’t imagine Ajie bleeding.
The fact that there were no traces of blood anywhere else around the area only heightened the suspicion.
“Did you find out anything?”
At that moment, Osprey approached, having heard their conversation.
“Yes, actually─”
Dier briefly explained his reasoning:
By that time, everyone around had already gathered to hear Dier’s story.
“···If this blood is really the blood of the criminal, then there is one more contradiction.”
Phil said, and Aten nodded in response.
“Why did Atjie collapse?”
The blood that filled Ajie’s body was by no means an ordinary amount. It would be enough to kill a normal person, and even warriors with considerable resilience would not be unharmed.
Why did Atji lose after inflicting such great damage?
“···blood····”
The one who muttered at that time was Fili’s second daughter, Saleh.
“With the current level of technology in the Empire, identifying an individual by blood would require several milliliters of blood. And that’s assuming clean blood. Blood that has spilled on the ground or has been contaminated over time would require a much larger amount.”
Phil asked him:
“Wouldn’t this amount be enough for now?”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
There Saleh raised his head.
“Because it wasn’t washed away by the rain.”
“···!”
The same was true for Phillie and Frondia, who opened their eyes wide at him.
However, Dier tilted his head, not knowing the situation.
Before meeting Dier, Frondier had already heard about the situation from Fili and heard about Fili’s prophecy.
Why Phillie could not prevent Atjie’s death even though he had foreseen it.
Because in her prediction it was raining.
“rain···?”
After hearing the explanation, Dier tilted his head, not understanding.
The sky was very clear when Birani and Atji were discovered. Not only that day, but for several days the empire continued to have very clear skies. It doesn’t rain that often.
Phil’s eldest daughter, Elicia, said:
“I let my guard down because it wasn’t raining. When Atjie is in danger, it’s definitely when it rains.”
The one who answered was Saleh.
“But since it didn’t rain, the blood didn’t wash away, and that’s how I was able to come to this conclusion.”
Aten saw the frontier
“Mr. Frontier, we thought we could not change even after seeing the foresight. But maybe…”
Maybe, the prediction has already changed.
By Atji’s own hands, not by anyone else’s.
“······”
Frondi covered his mouth with his hand.
At this moment, Frondia’s brain spun faster than ever. A different color lingered in his eyes. Everyone who saw it remained silent and waited for Frondia.
‘The culprit was wounded by Atjie and bled. The culprit’s plan was probably already messed up by then. He tried to kill Atjie through combat, but it didn’t work out, and in the end, the culprit used other means to defeat Atjie.’
What are the other means?
Before asking that, there is something more important:
“···Why did the culprit choose combat when there was an easier way to kill Atjie?”
Unless you’re just crazy about fighting, if there’s an easier way to kill your opponent, you should have just used that from the beginning.
Given the circumstances, Atji had no way to block the enemy’s means. That’s why he fell. The culprit must have known that too.
However, the criminal did not use that easy method, and as a result, Atji was injured and bled.
“···I know it’s childish of me to say this, but·”
Frontier looked up and looked at everyone.
“Couldn’t Atji’s death now be ‘incomplete’?”
“I think so too.”
Dier nodded.
“Because that family is the only one who understands this situation right now.”
The culprit wanted to kill Atjie.
So, I abandoned other means and chose to fight.
His means other than combat are imperfect, so the pros and cons are consistent.
‘Then what is the means?’
That guy fell down without even being able to respond.
No one can touch the fallen Atji. The blood that was excited around Atji is the same.
A magic that cannot be dispelled even by the most capable magicians of the empire.
In the knowledge of the Frontier, only one thing is possible:
‘···Eclectics·’
The culprit used Eclexis. He is a person who can use Eclexis.
It is possible to confront Atjie head-on, and the probability that he is human is already extremely low since he guessed that he would win.
Either God or the devil, one of the two. At this point, the Seven Deadly Sins, including Satan, are busy watching Zeus’s face. The more likely one is God.
‘But according to the demons, I heard that shooting Eclexis won’t kill you.’
Frontier is the only exception.
However, Frondia’s killing of its opponents is only a result, and Frondia’s Eclectic itself is not intended to kill.
‘It’s the opposite for me. Unlike my power, which has the risk of death even though it’s not intended to kill, this one looks like it’s dead but it’s not a complete death.’
However, if you look at the effect, it is clear that it is a power that is infinitely close to death. This power cannot dominate or make the opponent obey. It seems that the purpose is to make them in this state.
Among the gods, this is the god who uses the closest eclecticism.
But this alone does not tell us
To further narrow down the culprit,
“Why did the criminal target Atjie? Was this crime his goal? Or was he after something bigger?”
Jane asked
She had a sad face that reminded her of her old students.
“···okay·”
Frontier raised its head.
“That guy was after me.”
“yes?”
“There was something I didn’t understand, but this has made it clear.”
If the culprit is one of the gods, there is no reason for them to target Atjie.
Although Aji has no divine power, he has never rejected the gods and has never done anything to arouse hatred towards them.
But if Atji is not the final goal, everything becomes clear.
It is to attract the frontier.
As the death of Atjie, it leads to Frondia.
To their territory
In the human world, gods cannot use their powers, and humans cannot kill gods.
‘indeed·’
A really simple story·
As much as Frondia thinks of counterattacking the gods, the gods also find Frondia a thorn in their side.
So much so that I want to kill you right now.
‘I know who the culprit is’
Using Eclectis, it is deeply connected to death and has a purpose for Frondier himself.
‘Thanatos·’
He is the apparent god of death in Greek mythology, with golden eyes, black wings, and the appearance of a boy.
Thanatos, who set the trigger for the weaving and tried to kill Frondia, was an enemy who could never walk side by side with Frondia from the first time they met.
“I see·”
Knowing the culprit, knowing the purpose
Frontier said:
“We’re in sync”
It was a refreshing face,
“······”
Even his allies remained silent and had a look of fear in their eyes.
Boo-woong─
As if waiting for that moment, Frontier’s phone rang.
When Frondi checked the screen, he saw someone he had never expected calling him.
‘Revet de Richae’
Levett, Elodie’s older brother, was on the phone.
‘What’s going on?’
As Frondi picked up the phone, an urgent voice was heard on the other end.
[Frontier, come right here!]
Levett said without saying hello or asking how he was doing.
“Where are you talking about?”
[Come to the Tavern! Quickly! I have something to show you!]
Frondi frowned at him.
“···Don’t you know what my situation is right now? I’m busy right now·”
[Yeah, I know!]
You know?
When Frondi tilted his head to him, Levett said,
[You want to save Atjie!]
“···!”
[I came to Tavern a few days ago at Hector’s request. No matter how cold it is here, news always arrives! I heard the general story. Atjie died in the middle of the road!]
A harsh voice came out of Levett’s mouth.
When Frondia was about to say something to him,
[That’s bullshit!]
A single word that stops everything in the frontier.
[Is Atjiga really that kind of person! Frontier!]
“···That can’t be happening·”
[No matter what the situation, you’ll try to save Atjie, ignoring all other people’s concerns! That’s the kind of guy you are!]
Levett said as if he saw through everything:
Frontier, who is literally speechless
He soon spat out, “Ha,”
It was almost like a hollow laugh, but it was the first time I had a small smile since I came here.
“Yes, I am that kind of guy.”
[Then fly here right away! Time is of the essence!]
Now that I think about it, Levett’s voice has been urgent since a while ago. Where is he running to? Is he being chased by something?
“What’s going on?”
[You’ll know when you come!]
That’s right.
Frontier said he understood and hung up the phone.
“I think I should go. Levett is calling me about Atjie’s case.”
Phil nodded. Right now, if he could save Atjie, he had to get all the information.
“Be careful, Frontier.”
“Of course”
When Frondia was about to fly away again,
Someone grabbed his hand.
It was Aten
“···Aten?”
Frondia asked, but Aten didn’t say anything. She just held Frondia’s hand tightly and her eyes wandered here and there.
“what’s the matter?”
“I don’t know, just, just···”
Aten bit his lips and looked at Frondia.
Even though he didn’t say anything, his eyes were speaking.
Don’t go
I don’t know why, but I can’t go.
But I know that’s nonsense.
“···are you okay·”
Frondia said to reassure her:
“I’ll be back”
* * *
Frondia’s flight speed is the fastest among the humans in the Empire. This is because the black sky he possesses becomes wings and the entire body releases aura to increase propulsion.
However, the Aura is consumed faster than others. Since I have Helheim’s mana, I didn’t usually have to worry about its consumption, but this time it’s different.
I crossed the continent once, went back and forth between the mansion and the scene of the Atji incident, and this time I flew to Tavern again.
“···gasp, gasp· hoo·”
When Frondi arrived at Tavern, he realized that he didn’t have much Auror left, and he was physically exhausted.
“The designated location was here…”
Levett told him a location via phone. The location was beyond the walls of the Tavern.
To ordinary people, it is a very dangerous place where monsters from outside invade, but to the current Frontier, it doesn’t matter at all.
“···Is that the cave?·”
Frondier looked around and soon discovered a cave. His intuition told him that there was something inside.
Frontier lightly flew towards the cave.
But the closer I got, the more I felt strange.
The first thing I felt was the familiar smell of Mana. At first, I thought it was natural since Levett would be waiting.
But I gradually realized that this was not the mana I was used to.
When Frondi stepped into the cave entrance, he immediately knew the identity of the mana.
“···You, why···?”
Inside the cave, a woman stands.
Sunset-colored hair, lake-like eyes.
Levett and Hector are lying next to her. They must have fainted, judging by the way their shoulders move leisurely.
“Hello, Fron.”
And the woman standing greets Frondier.
“Elodie·”
Frontier’s tension grew as he watched Elodie.
What is before your eyes is definitely Elodie. It is not an illusion of the eyes, nor an illusion of any kind.
Elodie, who flew across the continent from Agoris, is right in front of him.
At this time, Frondier had a premonition.
Of all the things he has done so far,
I thought it would be the toughest fight ever.
“Front, I’m sorry.”
Elodie has a small smile on her face.
“I can’t let you go”
“Elodie·”
“Even if the whole world sends you away, even if I know you’re doing the right thing.”

denomination,
Inies·
A storm of divine power that seems to be about to explode on Elodie.
In the multi-colored light, Elodie sees Frondia.
I’m smiling a little.
─Protect Frontier. How much can you sacrifice to achieve that one thing? Is it more important than your life? Is it worth twisting your entire fate? Or is it a priority that should be given to you even if it upsets the balance of the entire world?
“Sorry·”
Speaking and smiling,
Elodie cried
“I have to protect you”
