Chapter 245 – Vacancy of the Sun
* * *
“What is this!”
“Brother, beyond the gate…!”
Right after Golden Sun was sucked into the gate, the remaining three fell into a panic.
Even though I saw with my own two eyes what had happened, I had no choice but to watch the empty seat devastated.
Because the space rift that swallowed the sun had already disappeared, and no one could explain why it happened.
“What did the sun say?”
“My brother said it was the gate to the Dragon Street.”
“Ariela, open the gate behind you immediately. I’m going to save the sun!”
“This gate…Is still closed.”
“If it’s closed, there must be a way to open it!”
Ga-yeon was surprised at herself for not being able to maintain her composure.
Even when she pushes Ariella, knowing she can’t help it,
The sun disappeared before her eyes, and she couldn’t forgive herself for doing nothing.
“What the hell did you do? I wish I knew in advance that something like this could happen…!”
“I didn’t know. It was unimaginable.”
“Kuu, can’t you guide me properly!”
“Teacher, calm down…! It’s not your sister’s fault!”
“Then what did you do while the sun was being dragged to the gate?”
“What?”
“Sister…!”
Ariella didn’t back down either.
“It’s your role, protecting the body of the sun.”
“It happened so quickly that I couldn’t react. Who knew that a rift in space would open and swallow the sun?”
“Neither do I. By the way… How did the sun know he was going to Dragon Street?”
Cecile didn’t know why at first, but spoke sparsely as if something came to mind.
“It’s your brother’s ability…”
“Is that the foreknowledge ability I was talking about back then…!”
What if that ability told you where beyond the gate was?
“What are you talking about?”
“My brother’s blood technique is unique, so he sometimes gets some information in advance that he doesn’t even know.”
“Get the information in advance?”
“I don’t think my brother didn’t know either, but…”
“That means it’s very likely that he went to Dragon Street.”
Ariella let out a sigh of relief.
“It looks like Jim went with him, so if it’s Taeyang, it’ll be fine.”
“Is there any way to open the gate from this side?”
“I don’t know, I don’t know anything about this phenomenon. I’m going to report to His Majesty the Emperor.”
“My master might be in danger, so you want me to suck your fingers and watch you?”
“I didn’t say that. Swordhu.”
“Get out of the way. I’ll open that gate.”
When Ga-yeon drew her sword and declared towards her closed gate, Ariella immediately countered.
“Touching the gate is against imperial law. Do you want to be arrested again?”
“You do what you can do. I only do what I can do.”
Ariella thought.
Just as no one worries about water when she cuts the water with her sword, there is no way that the closed gate will open no matter how hard Ga-yeon tries.
However, the woman who declares that she will open the gate is Ga-yeon. She is a sword master who has peaked in one world.
She couldn’t open the gate as long as she said she would, but in the worst case, she could break it down again.
“No, if you touch the one and only dragon gate and you’re out of touch forever, the sun will be lost in the other world.”
Cecile was caught between the two incensed people, at a loss for what to do.
“Sister, Master…”
“So, tell me to just wait?”
“I didn’t ask for it. I’m just doing what I can now. If you want to hold me accountable, I’ll do it later.”
“Stop!”
Cecile shouted.
“It’s my fault!”
Gayeon and Ariella simultaneously looked back at Cecil.
“It’s my fault for not catching my brother right in front of me.”
“…”
“…”
Ga-yeon couldn’t forgive herself.
The fire in his heart spread and spread, and he was in a state where he could not stop even if sparks flew to people around him.
However, when she saw the disciple who said everything was her fault, Ga-yeon suddenly looked back at herself.
She put the knife in and her hand trembled in her shame.
“I’m sorry. Ariella. I looked… Disheveled.”
“You don’t have to apologize… I’d rather have someone criticize me.”
“It was my responsibility to protect the sun. Do you think I couldn’t do it, I can’t lift my head in shame…”
“Brother… It will be fine, Master! You can go back!”
“Okay, now we have to find a way to solve this situation.”
Cecil and Ga-yeon’s eyes focused on Ariella.
“Three best moms and sisters! Does His Majesty the Emperor know the cause?”
“I don’t know, but His Majesty is the one who knows the Gates best in the Empire. He’s been researching the Gates for over a thousand years.”
“Then I will wait here while you return from your audience.”
“The security in this area is not good. The possibility that the sun once crossed over there will come back here is infinitely slim, so let’s go back to the workshop first.”
“…Kuh.”
Leave
The very fact that she left without any income made Ga-yeon suffer.
No, there was no one here who wasn’t suffering.
It was a pleasant atmosphere when I just left the studio, but now no one said a word.
‘Brother… Are you okay?’
Peridot stood at the entrance of the workshop.
Peridot intuited an unusual atmosphere.
“Senior, what happened?”
“My brother… Was sucked into the gate… And his whereabouts are unknown.”
“…”
“Ariela, take me with you. I will have an audience with His Majesty the Emperor.”
“I’m not the kind of person that anyone can see just because they want to see you.”
“It’s fine if I have to wait at the door. Take me with you. The sun wouldn’t have sent you alone.”
“Please take me too!”
As they reached Cecile, Ariella sighed.
Even if she tried to stop her, she didn’t have the energy to come up with words of rejection for two people who were sure to follow.
She too… Because I just wanted to know why this happened.
Even Seina, who belatedly figured out the situation, is attached, and the four go to the emperor’s villa…
“What is it, all together?”
“I’m sorry, Your Majesty. I came here because it was urgent.”
Ariella knelt down and bowed her head.
“What happened to the sun?”
“That is…”
Sihyeon, who had heard the news, was silent for a long time.
Ariella feared that Ga-yeon would scream in her heart.
After that long, she finally spoke her vision.
“Just before the sun was sucked into the gate, did I tell you not to worry because it’s the gate to the kingdom of dragons?”
“Yes, Cecilia heard.”
“I heard you clearly! Your Majesty the Emperor.”
“I know the sun’s blood trick, I thought it only works when I smell a married woman…”
“What does that mean, Your Majesty?”
Ariella glanced back at Cecil.
No matter how much His Majesty didn’t want to be formal, it was rude to ask again without permission.
Cecil hurriedly lowered her head.
“I’m sending you!”
In the meantime, tears welled up in Cecile’s eyes as she bit her tongue.
“Taeyang’s slave education is a mess, I’ll take a hundred sticks when I get back.”
“Ugh… Ugh… I’ll take it instead!”
“Cecilia!”
When Ariella sternly approached her, Cecil covered her mouth and whimpered.
“It’s a joke. It’s a joke. Uh-huh, I can’t even joke around because I’m in a high position.”
Ga-yeon clenched her fist.
“Your Majesty! If you know anything… Please let me know. I… We… Have gathered here with an earnest heart.”
“It’s not a big deal to talk about it now. Taeyang’s fateful development is a skill that becomes more leaky when what will happen in the future is related to a married woman.”
Now, no one understood Sihyeon’s words properly.
“It means that Taeyang is always attracted to good conditions for meeting married women…”
“…”
“…”
“Okay, no one understands. Let’s just get down to business.”
Sihyeon was sad.
Even if I didn’t understand, I felt the vacancy of the sun, who greeted me deliciously.
“The reason the gate to the dragon country is closed is because the entrance has opened elsewhere.”
“Mother, can’t we open the gate arbitrarily elsewhere?”
“It can’t be done by normal means. But if you open the gate to the dragon kingdom from somewhere other than Isil, this entrance will be closed due to lack of resources.
This means that there cannot be multiple holes leading to one world. Did you understand?”
“Yeah.”
“Uh… Ugh…”
Cecilia clutched her head and groaned.
“Um… Mother. Does that mean that the original entrance was closed because the entrance was opened elsewhere?”
“Yes, but opening and closing the gate of one world is a feat of a god. If a human does it, an imperfect part will surely appear, and as a result, another gate is temporarily opened.”
“That’s where my brother got sucked in…!”
“Yes, no matter what the purpose of the person who opened the gate was, there was no way they set the coordinates in such a way that they fell in the middle of the sea, so the sun will be fine.”
“Thank god…!”
When everyone sighed with the confirmation of vision,
Ariella learned something terrifying about this series of accidents.
“Then who is the gate, and for what purpose…”
“That’s the problem, maybe a hero.”
Warrior.
Because everyone here saw the power of First Number during the nine-tailed fox invasion,
The presence of the hero hit me even more heavily.
“I didn’t know that the priest I was with could even use dimensional magic…”
“Did she do that… To harm her brother?”
Cecilia said cautiously.
“The order is out of order. It must have been an accident that the sun got sucked into that gate, so it doesn’t make sense to predict that.”
“Hey…”
“Still, I made a good point. Did you say Cecilia?”
“Yeah…!”
“I can feel the thought of the master.”
“Ehehe…”
“The warrior party must have gone to the kingdom of dragons for a purpose. Right now, we don’t know what that purpose is. We’ll have to investigate. We can’t leave the sun alone like this…”
“I want to go help my brother!”
“I’ll go too, Mother.”
Seina and Cecile stepped out at the same time.
Above all, Shihyeon was surprised by Seina’s positive attitude.
“Seina, are you going to go get her boyfriend after hitting her mom during work?”
“That… Uh… Yes… If you say it loosely, it will be like that.”
“That steady Seina… Finally…!”
Sihyeon steals tears of emotion.
Seeing her mother’s exaggerated reaction, Seina’s cheeks turned red.
“Mother. The gate on Devil’s Street… Please!”
“Okay. I’m going to organize a special rental team with Seina as the center. Find the dragon country gate in the opposing camp and go help the sun.”
“Thank you!”
“No matter what the process is, Taeyang has passed alone to the world with First Number, so someone’s help will be needed.”
“Brother… Oppa is very dangerous!?”
“Even in the worst situation, you will be able to survive. Because Seol-ah is there.”
On the way back from the audience,
Ga-yeon immediately brought her words to Seina.
“Seina, I want you to put me in that special lease.”
“Yes, if you give me strength, I will be reassured.”
“I want to go too!”
“Cecilia, you might end up fighting First Number on the other side.”
Ariella didn’t want Cecilia to join her special unit.
Unlike Seina, who was special from birth, and Ga-yeon, who transcended human limits, Cecilia was highly likely to be in danger.
This was a fact that Cecilia herself knew well enough. However…
“I want to go.”
“…”
“I can even smell it, so I can find out where my brother is before anyone else!”
“Cecilia…”
“It’s no use trying to stop it. Ariella. This guy is my pupil. His precious family may be in danger, but he’s not the guy to hide.”
“Spain!”
Cecilia is embraced by Ga-yeon!
Ga-yeon swallowed her saliva, mesmerized by the violently soft ears of Cecil’s cat.
“Boo, it’s soft. How is it really so soft?”
“Nyangnyang!”
“Be my cat, Cecilia.”
“I can’t because it’s my brother’s cat.”
“…”
Feeling Ariella’s gaze, Ga-yeon cleared her throat and pushed Cecilia away.
“Uh, uh hmm. I wasn’t in a situation like this. What can I say when the sun sees it?”
“I wasn’t blaming you on the inside.”
“…I was stabbed inside.”
“You heard it from Your Majesty. It’s just that the sun got caught in the gate that someone else opened. There’s no need to worry.”
Ariella reached out her hand with a nonchalant expression and touched the ear of Cecil’s cat.
“Three Choi moms unnie, me too… Can I touch your breasts!?”
“Huh? What…If only a little bit.”
Cecil melted as she touched Ariel’s chest.
“Uh, wow… The feel is so good…”
“Don’t exaggerate.”
Seina and Ga-yeon glanced at Ariella’s large breasts.
“Really, there is nothing different from your heart?”
“Three best moms… I’m going to have a good time…”
“…”
Seina didn’t miss Ariella’s dazed halfway between her.
“Ariella-sama, as she said, is the most worried.”
“I’m sorry…”
Everyone smiles as if they understand Ariella’s feelings.
“Don’t worry, Ariella. I’ll be sure to bring my apprentice back in good condition.”
“Leave my brother to me! Three best mothers and sisters!”
“This time, I won’t make Ariella-sama sad.”
“…Everyone… Talks wildly…”
As if her tension had been released, Ariella’s voice trembled.
The water in her purple eyes was watery, and it looked like tears would flow down at any moment.
“I’m not really worried.”
“Sister…”
“If it’s Taeyang… He’s so healthy, he’s probably holding another woman…”
