Youngest Scion of the Mages - Chapter 74
The Magic Master’s Youngest Son Episode 74 As
information is added, the interpretation value that Cheonan can interpret increases. The hint that started with ‘sign’ has now created the keyword ‘Geumho clan’s altar’.
Mirang said.
“I guess I can go. but.”
Mirang looked at Larsen.
“I could get beaten up and kicked out, and you could get eaten.”
“…okay?”
Although he was recognized by Mirang, from the perspective of the adult Geumho tribe, Mirang is only half of the Geumho tribe.
The Geumho tribe hates the weak. I hate it even more if it’s from the same Geumho tribe. From Larsen’s point of view, Mirang is strong, but from the Geumho tribe’s point of view, Mirang is weak.
“Even though I took the fangs?”
“If you take that away, that’s enough. “If I had been an outstanding warrior, my recognition would have been recognized by the Geumho clan.”
That part was a bit disappointing.
“If you still want to go, I’ll give you directions.”
“hmm.”
I tried my head.
Is it really right to go there? Should we give up on Kirtel’s arrangements and find the ‘Hunter’s Tomb’ as originally planned? At that time, Evelia and Persha suddenly came to mind.
‘Monsters that even the mighty Geumho could not deal with.’
You have to survive among those monsters. If you want to survive a monster, you can’t use ordinary methods. Ultimately, it means that you have to take risks. It’s no risk, no return.
“let’s go.”
Kirtel’s arrangement. I decided to find it and eat it.
“And where is it?”
“Dragon Mountains.”
At that time, Lydia, who was watching, intervened.
“I know there!”
Larsen knows. It is the place where Lydia and Larsen signed the ‘Fire Contract’ and is also the place where the ‘Holy Grail’ was obtained. It is also a mountain range adjacent to Lydia’s hometown, Hyran. Larsen saw hope there.
‘Kirtel. canine. Transcendence Holy Grail.’
These three arrangements are all located in the ‘Dragon Mountains’. That means it’s not a coincidence.
‘That’s where I met Kashin.’
Kashin was with guardian knights called guardian spirits at that time. Larsen himself was with Japle, a 7th Circle wizard. Although the Dragon Mountain Range is wide, it doesn’t fall under the spirit of the Guardian Knights and Jayple?
[yes. If my intuition is correct, they look like swordsmen. I can feel their unique mana.]
[The access speed is very fast. I think we’ll run into each other soon.]
[It’s hard to judge. However, they seem to be swordsmen of a considerable level.]
At that time, Japle clearly spread energy and scanned the surroundings for mana.
‘Their presence was not revealed despite the swordsmen’s spirit or Jayple’s magic.’
That means they are protected by special powers. And there was a high probability that it was a place Kirtel had prepared in advance.
In other words, as long as you follow Kirtel’s arrangements properly, you can be guaranteed some degree of safety there.
Lydia’s mouth fell to her ear.
“I can see Dad!”
Larsen. Lydia. And the half-adult Mirang of the Geumho tribe headed to the Dragon Mountains together.
* * *
February 1, 223 in the Hypheon calendar.
A mountainside with no name. 6:10 am.
chin!
Mirang dropped a large wild boar on the ground. I couldn’t tell when it was captured.
“I just came and picked it up. Eat it or not.”
Lydia stood up, rubbing her eyes.
“wow. “It’s meat.”
Lydia immediately lit a fire. A barbecue was made on the spot.
It’s already been 3 days since I moved with Mirang. I am moving on foot without using the mobile gate.
There was nothing we could do because Mirang, a member of the Geumho clan, was extremely resistant to the mobile gate. Anyway, Lydia treated Mirang quite comfortably, and the same was true for Mirang.
Larsen also opened his eyes.
This was good when traveling with the Geumho tribe. There was a lot of food for ‘nutrition supplementation’ in the inventory, but it was difficult to eat meat that was hunted on the spot. Moreover, Mirang was quite a gourmet, so he carried various spices and salt in his leather pouch.
‘More than anything, being safe from attacks by beasts is a big advantage.’
I glanced at Mirang once. Mirang was cutting a half-cooked wild boar into bite-sized pieces with his sharp fingernails. Mirang said dryly when he felt Larsen’s gaze.
“I can’t eat regular wild boars. “It doesn’t taste that bad.”
“….”
“This guy is a wild boar called Shapuran. Among wild boars, it is almost the only species that can be eaten. It is a game fish preferred by the Geumho tribe because it has no unpleasant smell and the flesh is soft. “The population is so small that it is difficult to hunt.”
“They say the Geumho tribe is good at eating any living thing.”
“You’re saying that because you don’t know the Geumho tribe. There are many gourmets among the Geumho tribe. We don’t serve anything unless it’s high quality meat and vegetables. That’s why I don’t want to eat the ingredients in your subspace.”
In theory, time stands still in subspace. Even if you put food ingredients in the subspace, they will not spoil.
However, the Geumho tribe does not like to eat ingredients stored in subspace. He said it had a unique smell. A tasteless smell for the Geumho tribe that humans cannot sense.
Mirang’s eyes narrowed.
“Of course, the most delicious thing is human meat. “The flesh is soft and tender.”
“What on earth does it mean to say that human meat is delicious in front of humans?”
“Why is that?”
“Is Geumho meat delicious?”
“It tastes awful. It’s tough. “The subcutaneous fat is full of toxins, so it’s the worst food ingredient.”
“….”
I didn’t say whether I had tried it. Mirang is a member of the Geumho tribe. Although they are classified as ‘humans’, they are not the humans Larsen thinks they are. They are just a species of beast similar to humans. Common sense and culture were very different. I decided not to understand. I just thought it was something like that.
Mirang said.
“After passing this valley, you will reach Hailan.”
“Wow, I’ve never been down this road before!”
A dry valley. It was said that if you pass through this cave and then go down the mountain, you will come across ‘Hiran’. Lydia’s hometown.
“Can I go see Dad?”
“Lydia. “You’re in town.”
“What about Larsen?”
“I will meet the Geumho tribe and come back.”
“You said you might get eaten?”
Lydia, who had said that far, lowered her head.
“Is it because I’m weak?”
“….”
You can’t just say that. It’s natural to be weak at 14. Lydia is an incredibly good wizard for a 14-year-old. In particular, he was born with unrivaled talent in fire-type elemental magic. Moreover, he received special training from Evelia. As time passes, Lydia will become stronger.
Lydia clenched her fists.
“I’m going to see my dad.”
“….”
“Dad said that. someday. He said that if you really want to become a strong person, you should talk to your dad. I will become very strong and I will definitely protect you. “I am your contractor.”
Lydia waved her hand. I decided to go to Hailan.
“Wait there. “I’ll go after I finish work.”
Larsen and Mirand. Only two remain. Larsen and Mirang entered the beginning of the Dragon Mountains. Mirang placed both arms on the ground. It stood on all fours like a four-legged animal. I started walking around. I kept fluttering my nose. It seemed like he was smelling something.
“ruler. Come this way.”
I was able to realize Larsen while climbing the Dragon Mountains.
‘The direction matches where the Holy Grail of Fire rested.’
And found it. A shabby stone tomb. I thought it was shabby before, but now it has collapsed to the point where it can hardly be called a tomb.
At that time, the voice of the Holy Grail was heard.
[eww. I hate it here.]
‘Why?’
[I think I’ve been sleeping here for a thousand years. Anyway, it was sealed.]
But Mirang kept smelling in front of the collapsed stone tomb. It even dug up stone tombs with its powerful front paws.
Some time has passed. Larsen asked.
‘Why is Mirang digging the ground like that?’
[I think it’s because they don’t know the starting language to enter their village.]
‘Is there a separate starting language to enter the village?’
Mirang came closer.
“It’s definitely around here. “I can’t find the entrance to the village.”
“Don’t you need a special starter?”
“Is there such a thing?”
It was the purest expression among Mirang’s expressions that I had ever seen. I saw simple eyes for the first time. Larsen frowned slightly. This is not something to blame Mirang for. Mirang was an abandoned Geumho tribe member and did not receive proper care from her parents. It’s no wonder I didn’t learn that.
‘Then, ultimately, the village’s Geumho tribe has to find Mirang.’
Will they come out? They are hiding from a crazy wizard named Persha. I thought there was a pretty good chance it wouldn’t show up. Then there was only one answer.
Larsen took out Tutankha’s fang. I sat down on a dug out stone tomb. If the Geumho tribe is Kirtel’s arrangement, they will definitely respond to ‘Tutanka’s Fang’.
Larsen sat on the stone tomb and meditated for an entire day.
Hypheon calendar year 223. February 2. 6 am.
‘come.’
Larsen opened his eyes. A voice was heard.
“Little. “What are you?”
We moved slowly so as not to irritate the Geumho tribe. Tutankha’s fangs were inserted into subspace.
“Are you from the Geumho clan?”
At first glance, it seemed to be 1.5 times the size of Mirang. Mirang’s body trembled slightly. In fact, he seemed a little more scared than Larsen. Larsen was able to interpret Mirang through Cheonan.
[Mirang has been weak since childhood. Because of this, he was harassed a lot by other Geumho tribe members.]
Nevertheless, it is ironic that he wanted to go to the village. I am scared of the Geumho tribe, but I want to return to the Geumho tribe. It was difficult to understand this contradictory feeling.
Meanwhile, Mirand also found it difficult to understand Larsen.
‘Why isn’t that kid afraid at all?’
I have such weak strength. I have a weak body that looks like it might break if I hit it. I don’t know how he can remain so upright even after seeing the warriors of the Geumho tribe.
‘how?’
I didn’t understand how that could happen. But I tried to understand. The moment you learn that, this fear that is unbecoming of the Geumho clan will disappear. I had to learn that.
“How do you have Tutankha’s fangs?”
“It’s Kirtel’s errand.”
“Kirtel?”
The Geumho tribe tilted their heads. The Geumho tribe did not seem to know the name Kirtel. Larsen said without any intimidation.
“Bring the elder.”
“The little guy has lost his head.”
The golden tiger walked closer to Larsen. There was no sound. Larsen’s Cheonan sent a danger signal. I almost had visions of my neck being crushed by those strong hands. But Larsen ignored the warning.
“My name is Larsen Mayton.”
“however?”
“Ivelia. And they are Persians.”
“…what?”
“You may not know Kirtel, but you know Evelia and Persha, right?”
The fur of the Geumho tribe stood up. Evelia. And he seemed to fear the name of Persia. But then he curled his lips and smiled.
“You brought a replica of Tutankha’s fang to discover this land.”
I stretched out my chest. It seemed like the Geumho tribe had all their fears gone.
“We are not afraid. We will die fighting you.”
“I came to stop that. You and me too. “There is no need to die.”
The Geumho tribe is strong. However, the intelligence is not very high.
“As one of the heirs of the Mayton family, I came here to correct my sisters’ mistakes.”
“How do you correct the mistakes of Evelia and Persia?”
“I will offer Tutanka’s fang to your altar and inherit the will of Tutanka and Kirtel.”
It wasn’t really a lie. I came here following Kirtel’s arrangements.
“We will inherit their will and prevent the Mayton family’s senseless slaughter.”
“That is something I cannot believe.”
“The altar will decide that. Whether Tutanka’s fangs are real or fake.”
Larsen glanced back.
“Isn’t that right, Elder Bakuya?”
At that time, someone appeared through the bushes.
“How did you know my name boy?”
