Chapter 330 – 94. Pantheon Escape (2)
Siertia let out a resonant sound.
A sword newly made for me. But it seems like you’ve been with me for a very long time. The feeling of holding the handle of the sword was very familiar.
‘Siertia is the Reinhard family’s treasured sword.’
Holy Ramir Empire. The holy sword that the first Reinhardt used when the empire was first established as a kingdom.
Although the family head of a hundred years ago. Although that holy sword was destroyed in Atlin von Reinhardt’s time. It is now resurrected in my hands.
‘And I was very soggy with Ertiwa.’
The will of that holy sword is very connected. Without needing to be tamed, Siertia has already become a sword only for me.
At that moment, Erti’s wings became a protection and wrapped around my hand.

[The special effect is in effect.]
—————–
At the same time, I feel intense energy gathering into my mana heart. Very different from my usual body.
It felt like the torrent of mana that had evolved one step was spinning wildly in the mana heart.
‘This kind of feeling is only felt in the second stage of Yonginization.’
Of course, I didn’t tolerate it now. Yonginhwa puts a buff beyond human on my body.
Literally, my half-human body is temporarily turned into a dragon. Change into a non-human form.
‘I can’t recklessly reveal that figure in the ecliptic.’
Not only in the ecliptic, but in the Ramir Empire, dragons are demons. I, the successor of the Marquis and the son of the Great Saint. In fact, the fact that he was a demon cannot be recklessly revealed.
That’s why the buff that can’t be used openly is toleration. 5th and 6th, of course. Its power is heavenly and earthly.
As a human being, as long as I put forward as Reinhardt. It would be a loss of a rank.
‘Because of the difference between an aura user and an aura master. It’s a different level from the hierarchy below it.’
But now you don’t have to regret that shortcoming at all. My appearance now is a perfect human being. The dragon’s power is not used.
“Uh, how?”
And I swung Siertia as it was. The six guards who made the party nervous. Everyone collapsed on the spot.
Lucia was very surprised and said quietly next to me.
“I couldn’t properly grasp Julian-nim’s movements with my torso vision. He was just chasing after the afterimage…”
Like she said Because the me from a while ago perfectly showed the movements of a master without Yong In-hwa.
‘Siertia’s hierarchy rise effect. I used the fusion ceremony to the limit with that 6th tier mana heart.’
Reinhardt’s grandeur and Orhain’s speed. A mana training method fusion ceremony that captures both of those advantages.
My sword that I wielded while using that fusion formula.
Even a descendant of the Orhain family, famous for their speed, reaction, and kinetic vision. I couldn’t read the movement completely.
“You can’t just be surprised. Lucia. You must have felt something too. In my movements.”
Lucia nodded her head quickly. He didn’t forget to stimulate Lucia like that.
‘As expected, the official name of the fusion ceremony. Better call it that.’
My fusion ceremony was finally completed through Lucia. Instead of the temporary name of fusion ceremony. I decided to name it the Lucia-style mana practice method. I have already made up my mind.
Whispered in her ear
“If it’s the Lucia style I made with you. Lucia, you too will be able to quickly catch up to the stage I have reached.”
“Lu, the Lucia style…”
For a moment, Lucia felt very embarrassed. But she had no time to relax here.
“Rosette. Just like this, cast all the transformation magic on the party. The magic spell cast on Fabian’s party.”
“Transformation magic? If so, the magic cast on those combat cadets will be broken…”
“By now, the guards officers who had been drinking must have fallen asleep. And if it’s the skills of those three people, you don’t have to worry.
Rather, dressing as a woman would be more difficult for them. I spoke.
“And even if you leave the Pantheon, there will be rebels everywhere. We can’t see ourselves like this.”
Rosette nodded his head. In this way, the party hurriedly broke through to Endier Hall. And beyond that, when you start to see the back gate of the Pantheon.
I said to my companions.
“Rosette must know where the Marquis of Aitern’s reinforcements gathered. If you leave this place, I will take Her Highness Lillia there no matter what.”
“Please. Mr. Julian.”
Lillia put on a determined expression. So the group left the Pantheon.
***
Chloe stood in front of a man with a very nervous face.
A arrogant aristocratic daughter of the Aitern family. Silver hair and ruby-red eyes that seemed to be comparable to the finest fabrics.
A beautiful appearance befitting the silver hair that is not like that person. And a voluptuous body.
In addition, Chloe has not only her skills as an alchemist, but also a clever sangjae that stands out from her merchant family.
Of course, in front of any man, he is noble and arrogant. Countless nobles tried to win her heart and courted her.
As a noble lady, Chloe de Aitern had all the virtues that couldn’t be more perfect. Naturally, he saw men as nothing more than a passing insect.
‘With this, I’ve conveyed everything I had to say.’
However, Chloe put her hands together in a polite way for the man standing in front of her, then bowed her waist.
He is a formal greeting with the manners of an extremely high-ranking aristocratic lady. She has only two men who can give her such a sincere greeting.
The first man, of course, was Julian von Reinhardt. Chloe is still infatuated with the man.
Why is she still keeping her head down? It was because of that Julian.
“I know what you mean. Chloe. I was interested in what you said, so I moved the privates like this. For now.”
And the man who greeted her said to Chloe. That man is just another man.
Gerard de Aitern.
He is the owner of the Aitern family, and owns the continent’s best trading company, the Aitern Trading Company. He was the Marquis of Aitern, the great prince who ruled the central region.
Of course, he was Chloe’s biological father. At the words of the Marquis Gerard, Chloe put on an expression uncharacteristically honest.
“Then are you listening to me, Father? That’s why the family’s enlisted soldiers are sent here…”
And the place where the two are is inside the field barracks. Sitting on a chair inside, the Marquis Gerard, who was resting on his chin, looked at Chloe.
Also, like his daughter, she has silver hair. And enemy. A cold, aristocratic haughty expression. Undoubtedly, the two were letting them know that they were biological fathers.
“No. It’s true that I was interested in what you said. A decision has not been made yet.”
“That word…”
The Marquis Gerard looked beyond the barracks for a moment. The door of the barracks was open, and all of the Marquis’ soldiers could be seen.
Compared to the 3 major knights of the empire, they are not famous enough. All of the soldiers were fully armed.
And each and every one of those soldiers was as good as the elite soldiers of the 3rd Order of Knights.
In fact, I hope that the luxury experts who know the situation of the empire well evaluate it. It’s just that the Marquis Gerard didn’t create the Knights for political reasons.
Already, the privates he owns are already openly saying that they might stand right next to the 3rd Imperial Knights.
The enormous financial power of the Aitern family. It is because he is evaluated as the ruler of the central region both in name and reality by raising the current private soldier with its superior capital power.
Deep down, he is a merchant, so he is just watching. That too was Reinhardt of the North. Like Or Hein of the South, he is a man with great power to shake the empire.
The Marquis Gerard tapped the armrest of the chair with his fingertips. He then looked at Chloe with a curious expression.
“No. More than that, Chloe, I didn’t know you would come to a conclusion which side you would stand on so easily. Of course, it is worthy of commendation for letting me know that prior information in advance. Still don’t you know Even if you have these enlisted men. That our family is fundamentally a merchant family.”
Chloe hid her tension inside. And he pondered the Marquis’ words. The family’s principle of conduct is always profit first.
Even though Chloe pushed her older brothers out and won the race for succession. Until she inherits the title of Marquis of Aitern, it is a decision that can be overturned at any moment.
Especially the Rebellion of Grius. Depending on which side the Marquis of Aitern stands on, the game can change completely.
The opinion Chloe gave to the Marquis was the anti-Greek faction. In other words, the choice to oppose the rebels on the side of those loyal to Princess Lilia.
‘Of course, Father must have already decided which side to stand on. Since the central part directly borders the southern part of Duke Pedro’s territory. Of course, helping Grius is a rotten rope.’
In the first place, it was a choice that couldn’t happen if you were sane from the rebellion of Grius. The mightiest swords of the empire are, of course, Margrave Essenmund and Wilhelm.
The veteran is loyal only to the emperor, to the Asterisk family. Even if his rebellion succeeds.
After that, Grius turned the White Night Knights and Essenmund elite soldiers, who are considered the strongest in the empire, into enemies.
Although it was impossible to move the large army immediately due to the monster’s lending. Even if only one squadron of the White Night Knights aimed their swords at the ecliptic.
It was clear that Grius wouldn’t be able to sleep comfortably for a single day.
‘Already this rebellion is tantamount to suicide.’
So, of course, it is better for the central part to help Lilia and build a friendly relationship with Essenmund.
The Marquis Gerard is the only man Chloe recognizes.
No, just a few months ago. He was the only person Chloe acknowledged before falling for Julian. Even with alchemy. Because Marquis Gerard is already being evaluated as the best in Island.
‘So there’s no way my father thought my opinion was wrong. My father will never choose Grius.’
But the Marquis Gerard is not one to throw her words at her for no reason. In the words just before, the marquis emphasized that the Aitern family was a merchant family.
In other words, your own opinion at this time. How much is that choice really worth? What the family could gain from that choice. As the successor of Aitern, he meant to explain.
Chloe, who had read her thoughts, was silent for a moment. Rather, the Marquis Gerard spoke first.
“Chloe, your answer is slow, not like you. That also means. Is it because of your love for the Count of the Reinhard family?”
Chloe’s heart skipped a beat. It seems that his father already knew about his relationship with Julian.
Of course, Chloe never hid her meeting with Julian. No, there were times when he tried to brag about his relationship with him openly, to the extent of inviting him to his family’s luxury cruise.
‘As expected, my father is not easy.’
If you are a normal father. I’m sure you’re curious about your daughter’s love story. There was no way that his father did not know that Yulian was the fiancé of the third princess, Lilia.
Even so, I did not dare to express the word love.
Of course, than the profit and loss calculation as a trader. I wonder if it was because of personal feelings that I actively suggested moving the enlisted men of the late family. There was no doubt that the words contained the meaning.
‘If you don’t like my answer. He’s the one who can evacuate any number of private soldiers from his family to the territory right now.’
Of course, the Marquis will not join the rebels.
To the point where he could later manipulate Princess Lilia behind her. The Marquis must have already calculated the point at which these enlisted soldiers could be deployed most efficiently.
‘In fact, if you only think about the benefits. It might be better to move the privates later.’
What Chloe suggested to move the soldiers in such a hurry. Of course, it was for Yulian.
Because he requested that the marquis family move as quickly as possible in order to put an end to the imperial rebellion as quickly as possible.
So if things worked out as we talked about beforehand. Yulian and Lilia must have already been coming here.
So, the Marquis’ enlisted men had to be stationed here. Soon, the Marquis pressed for an answer once again.
“I’m asking if you’ve brought in a private from your family to your dating game. If you’re smart, there’s no way you wouldn’t know. Isn’t it?”
Now was the time to answer. Chloe said with her true heart.
“Father. This offer is actually…”
