The World-Class Extra’s Walkthrough - Chapter 316
316 March
(3)
The main ceremony began at Pale Dragon.
Eve and I heard the officiating speech from various grandparents.
It was so painful that I was going crazy.
“The two men devoutly pledged to be united in one fate in front of the eternal and great heroes of the empire…” “
Those who have worn the crown since ancient times are beings who are required to practice endless training, so they always treat themselves ruthlessly and never give a single thought. Don’t lose compassion…”
“What is a married couple? No matter what moment comes, we embrace each other…”
Archbishop Edvik Rondel of the Quatras Church was only the beginning.
High priest of the Pitano Church, Elder of the Noble House, Chairman of the Citizens’ Council, President of Certion University.
And finally.
“As it is the wedding of my beloved student, I cannot help but say something. “I am Tirvaen Sui, the temporary tower owner of the Five-Colored Spire…”
Even the little witch, who had long since reverted to her middle-aged self, came out in full force and harassed the two of us persistently.
Seeing that he continued speaking slowly, I was certain that he was doing it on purpose.
Are you getting revenge like this just because I made you do some paperwork?
-Giloshan I’m going crazy because my legs hurt. How about taking a break and then doing it?
-Does that make sense? There may be one more topic to ask you to be patient. Just hang in there.
-Actually, I need to pee!
– Wrap it in your dress. I’ll take care of it.
-how? Is there such magic?
-No, it’s elemental magic.
-Spirit…?
-If you summon a water spirit and soak it, it won’t show anything. how is it?
-You are so crazy.
We made it through that time by talking nonsense using communication magic.
Fortunately, the ceremony ended before Eve’s bladder burst.
The priests who came up to the podium began to speak in unison as if they were one person.
“In the name of Quatras…”
“In the name of Pitano…” “
I solemnly declare
that you two have become husband and wife …”
The system messages came to mind. It was then.
A message that met the conditions for the fate quest I was expecting.
[You have completed the ‘Marriage Vow’, one of the ‘Unknown 3-Step Procedures’.]
[Perform the remaining procedures to complete the fate quest ‘He who seeks to bear the weight of the coronet’.] As a gust of wind blows
into the room, magical power is released. I felt this coherence.
As I lowered my head, I saw something forming on the fourth finger of my left hand.
It was a wedding ring.
Next to me, Eve was staring blankly with her mouth slightly open.
‘I’m really getting married. In Korea, I always went to other people’s weddings.’
What kind of expression will Kim Ki-wook and Choi Won-sang make when they see this?
Maybe you will gain confidence by thinking, ‘Hey, I can do this too!’
While I was thinking about nonsense again, Empress Mirpicia came up to the podium.
She looked at us and spoke in a solemn voice.
“With this, they have become a couple who will be together for the rest of their lives. Now, the prince will inherit the eternal crown as the next emperor of the Baltic Empire.”
As the Empress lightly waved her hand, I felt magical power converge.
Eve was winking at me.
-Gilroshan A crown has appeared on your head. Of course, it’s not the real thing.
When I turned around a little, I saw that something had formed on Eve’s head.
It was a tiara that appeared translucent.
I nodded.
-Now I see that this is also a type of illusion magic. It’s a very old magic. I can feel it in the structure of the technique.
-…That’s not important right now. You know it starts now, right?
She was right.
Like me now, the coronation ceremony begins from the moment the Crown Prince puts the crown of welcome on his head.
Empress Mirpisha explained the procedure to everyone.
“The prince must pass through the ‘Cave of Succession’ prepared deep underground in this Pale Dragon. “The succession to the throne will conclude with the confirmation of great challenges and achievements.”
The Empress, who had taken a few steps to the side, gestured again.
Then, all the devices on the podium in front began to separate and pile up elsewhere.
It was like watching a scene where things around the player temporarily disintegrate when shuffling the fate cards.
And what was revealed was the entrance.
The narrow passage leading to the Pale Dragon’s basement appeared like an open black maw.
Empress Mirphisha turned to me.
“Prince, please enter.”
“yes.”
“I hope that the blessings of Ellahorten will be with you.”
With everyone looking at me with concern, I started walking.
Towards an underground cavity that appears far away.
With the feeling as if the legendary white dragon was devouring me alive…
[I entered the special place ‘Cave of Succession’]
[Be careful! [This is a space where a very dangerous enemy lurks!]
I have begun the final process of succession to the throne.
The goal I set was level 60.
‘A goal that can be achieved when you clear this dungeon perfectly without any errors.’
Eve spoke as if a perfect clear was impossible.
But it was different for me.
It felt a bit like I was applying gold lacquer with my own hands, but it was because I was stagnant water and on a different level from that guy.
* * *
The heir to the throne will never die in the Cave of Succession.
This was because Quatras and Pitano, who allowed this succession, granted special protection.
However, there were many cases where the heir was seriously injured to the point of death.
‘This is possible when you run into a dungeon without understanding the topic.’
It is said that the imperial bloodline produces natural magicians, but the levels of the crown princes vary.
There may be a prince like me now who hasn’t even turned 20….
There may also be a prince who has already reached a mature level because the previous emperor lived a long life without any problems.
Therefore, the Cave of Succession was providing ‘courses by level’.
If I wanted, I could have chosen the easiest course and breezed through it.
The problem is that neither the players nor the princes can tolerate such a course.
Since everyone thought they were the best, they always tried to challenge themselves to the highest level of difficulty.
‘The perfect clear that Eve talked about earlier naturally assumes the advanced course.’
The intermediate level or lower course is chosen when you want to see a story related to a faction scenario.
I, too, was a player who thought that way, and I could not see any other options in order to gain enough experience to reach level 60.
[The first fork in the road has appeared.]
[Look at the clues.]
Three paths.
The clue was very intuitive.
There were pale, discolored skull heads hanging at every corner of the street, and the numbers were all different.
There is a skeleton on the right path.
The middle path has two skeletons.
There were three skulls hanging on the left path.
‘Now that I think about it, whose skull was that placed there? Surely it doesn’t belong to the previous emperors?’
I tilted my head and walked away.
Of course, it was towards the left path where the three skulls were hanging.
[An opponent appears who will test the legitimacy of the succession.]
A creepy feeling.
At that moment, two eyes awakened from the depths.
A human figure walked out of the darkness with its eyes flashing brightly.
A collection of black-and-blue brilliance, as if made of will-o’-the-wisps, was blocking my path.
< Raise your sword, my Huin. Be prepared to inherit the empire that conquered infinite worlds... >
It was a heavy voice that echoed throughout the cave.
He was someone who could refer to Giloshan as his successor.
[The 3rd emperor ‘Esshan’ has appeared.]
[Defeat your opponent and pass through this path, or retreat and take another path.]
In advanced courses, the heroic spirits left behind by past emperors appear as opponents.
An ordinary crown prince might feel burdened by having to fight against his ancestors.
Moreover, he could have been scared because he probably knew that the imperial family was a lineage that produced the strongest wizards.
Returning to the fork in the road and taking a different course was a worthy option.
But that didn’t apply to me.
‘The 3rd Emperor Esshan. The founder of Hebrew magic swordsmanship. A pioneer who combined magical techniques into a single sword technique.’
I was familiar with all the previous emperors that appeared in this cave of succession.
Although he only had knowledge of the game, he also had a perfect understanding of their movements and behavior patterns.
Here, the knowledge Giloshan had acquired in the past was of great help.
…It was a magic sword technique created by the great Emperor Esshan, but there was one flaw in its initial form.
It was only after a long time had passed and it was during the reign of Emperor Yurshan that this was completed with great difficulty.
This could be said to be the result of the entire empire believing that Hebrew magic swordsmanship was perfect, as if under hypnosis….
– Elgrik Semeyer, reflecting on the greatness of swordsmanship.
The situation even has weaknesses that were not revealed at all in the original work.
I can’t lose even if I want to.
“Your Majesty, please prepare as well.”
I tapped the Heavy Ode and pulled it out so that I could pull it out.
Then the heroic spirit of the former emperor laughed softly.
< Hehe! I had no idea that such a bold child would come from my family line. Come on. >
He was already jumping in.
I ran in a straight line towards Esshan.
But in an instant, things turned upside down.
< What is space? What else is time? Where do we come from and where are we going? Have you ever thought about it? >
Esshan appeared behind me with a rumbling noise from the rain.
He was moving like a ghost and was pointing the tip of his sword at my shoulder.
Blocking the opponent’s movements by eating up the distance like this was the pattern of Hebrew magic swordsmanship.
But I got out of it.
[Movement skill: Island]
Now I was shooting the blade at Esshan’s back.
The heroic spirit laughed with his back turned.
< That's fast! Quick! >
The space flipped over again, but in the end, it was a fight I would win.
I planned to attack by using the Hebraet magic sword technique at speed.
But suddenly I felt the question from earlier tickling my mind.
‘What are space and time?’
It was a pretty interesting topic.
And it was also a spark that sparked new ideas.
If we were to paraphrase the current situation, we could express it this way.
‘How should I deal with an enemy who appears behind my back and steals my time?’
There may be different strategies depending on the player, but my answer was this.
I threw my body backwards, pressing down on the floor.
And then I closed my eyes.
‘Let’s get rid of the concept of front and back.’
Whether the enemy is in front or behind, there is no difference if you mark the dot and measure the distance from where you are.
In that case, all you had to do was get there first.
‘In the first place, we need to occupy a position so as not to lose time. To do that, you have to forget your direction.’
The answer I gave to Esshan’s question was this.
The moment the heroic spirit surged, disturbing my senses, I was already slashing my sword backwards.
Something reached the end.
The sword spirit shot out like a long whip and swept through the space.
