Chapter 256 – Land of the East
“Aaaaa! Cool! Cool! It was really cool!”
The way back with a tired body.
On the way to her base, Irina let out her cheers as her body trembled.
A bitter laugh erupted in her ear-piercing high-pitched tone, while Alina let out a sigh.
“It’s an inefficient technique that has no real power even after it shoots and swells with such ruthless mana. I don’t want to use it in practice again. This case was special, so I can’t help it…”
Alina grabbed her head, feeling the empty magic within her body.
Even when she was practicing, Alina was especially uncomfortable with this skill.
Well, I can’t help it
Alina is right.
Extremely inefficient. Genesis is a technique that eats up a lot of mana.
4 magic attribute. It is also a skill that the best people in a kingdom gather and use, but it has no real power.
A technique to surround the enemy in the world they created.
Of course, since all the components of the world are his own power, the enemy is a terrifying world that has turned into an enemy… Didn’t until
If you are a noble of rank, you can erode a certain space around you with your magic.
Even so, if you go to a long-term battle, it’s advantageous, and you can fight in an overwhelmingly advantageous position, so it’s not bad depending on the opponent you’re using, but compared to the effect, the magic power consumed is enormous.
Possessors of power.
In particular, the nobles hated the state of using up all their mana.
It’s rare to get to the point where you lose your magic power, but when it actually happens, even ordinary people can lose their lives.
In fact, after the fight with Marquis Kilias, the four of us fell into a state of exhaustion.
If it wasn’t for Count Harry, his life would be in danger with just one enemy soldier.
“That’s good! The protagonist who uses the power of the sun! And the demon king who blocks the main character’s path with overwhelming power that appears in front of him! And the moment of crisis! A special move that shoots all the power of the hero and heroine! Kyaaaaa!”
Irina screamed, covering her face with her hands.
Seeing Irina like that, Alina let out a sigh of relief. It’s like watching her sister who doesn’t understand her sister’s taste.
“Hmm. I agree with her sister, her third wife.”
“Who is the third wife’s sister! Who is the first! Could it be Grace?”
“Who is the second? Is it you?”
Amelia nodded her head, crossing her arms, ignoring Irina’s cat-like hiss at her own words.
“It’s a really cool technique. In particular, it is to create something new by breaking away from the logic of using concepts at the same time or increasing power with each other’s concepts. This is nothing short of blazing a new path in magic theory.”
“No, it’s not that great.”
“That’s right, that’s great! Leo!”
Irina resolutely exclaimed at my denial.
Irina has this kind of knowledge from before? She was an inquiring and curious child.
She did go to a lot of meetings. The meeting I participated in was also in that field.
Irina, who shouted with excitement as she opened her eyes, must have liked the technique created this time, Changsae, more than she thought.
“This isn’t just joint technology! Creation of a new world achieved only with magical power! The most important thing is that the world that can be constructed depends on the caster’s magical power and faith!”
Seeing her crying out with her face flushed red, she must be really sincere.
Since Hagin created the technology, Irina was the most enthusiastic.
She has the least magical power, but theoretically, Irina was the one who dug the deepest.
“In the first place, even if it’s our magical power, it’s strange to actually materialize green vegetation! It must have been the will of something! This technology is a topic that will continue to be researched in the future! I’m thrilled! Right? Leo!”
“Ah, yes… That’s right.”
I couldn’t help but nod my head at Irina, who was burning with a passionate academic spirit.
When Alina’s eyes met, they smiled bitterly at each other.
“Oh, we have arrived.”
With Irina’s voice echoing through our group, we arrived at the heart of the East.
“Big.”
Eastern center visible from afar.
The eastern part ruled by the Kilias family, the Kilias capital of the Kilias territory.
It’s Kilias.
* * *
Eastern.
Wasteland land.
A place with a desolate environment beyond cruelty where nothing green can be found.
50% of the eastern provinces are desert, and most of the remaining land is rough and arid.
Only 10% of the land is barely subsidized for farming and water, and that small percentage is dominated by the nobility.
People live in the harsh wasteland, but due to the nature of most of the population living in 10% of the green area, it has become a structure dominated by a family with strong power.
“It’s gorgeous.”
Aslan is also gorgeous, but is it because this is the home of a marquis family that rules a province? It was more colorful.
In particular, since it is a different province, the structure and form of the city are also exotic. It seems to see a completely different country from the South.
However, the reason why it feels heterogeneous there is probably because there is a distinction between glamorous and non-glamorous places.
“It is a cruel city.”
I looked at Kilias once more at Alina’s words.
Kilias, the leader of Kilias territory.
The city of Kilias, created by the law of taking the name of the family, is the center of the East.
True to its name, it is a splendid, beautiful and exotic city.
Okay.
If you look only at the big road in the center.
“This is true.”
Master of the new city.
The eyes looking at the owner of the city are unusual.
No, it would have been natural if it was obvious, but the eyes of the commoners who existed here were only filled with fear.
“…”
As quiet
As you walk along the path, look around.
It was so full of silence that it made no sense that this was a city representing a province.
Not to mention the red-blooded commoners, even the blue-blooded dregs of the adventurers were silently looking this way.
“Still. Rather, it seems worse than before.”
Looking at it, Alina’s eyes as she spoke were full of contempt.
It was enough to know who the target was without having to say it.
“Have you ever been here?”
“Several times for business reasons. At most, it only stayed for a short time to deliver correspondence. I felt it every time I came, but it is still a land without substance.”
It’s real…
Yes. Although their appearances are gorgeous, their eyes lack vitality.
The lives of the lower classes who just keep squeezing them out. It is shocking that the center of a province, not another, is like this.
“Because Marquis Kilias was greedy. He must have considered everything on this land to be his own.”
“That guy is a marquis.”
“Earthworms are also born under dragons.”
Is it a rumor that he is a pet dog?
It’s a little different in this case though.
“If such a bastard became king, it would be a headache.”
Just imagining it makes his head hurt.
Well, I don’t have any thoughts on what to do as a king yet, but at least I don’t want to rule the people like the Marquis of Kilias.
“Do you know about the Kilias family?”
“Hmm.”
After thinking for a moment about my words, Alina spread her 2 fingers.
“There will be two. Marquis and one daughter.”
“Two people? What about collateral?”
“Hmm. Well?”
Alina tilted her head.
“I’ve never heard of that either. Did she manage it thoroughly from the beginning and didn’t even make a collateral, or how did she sort out the collateral? It’s a story that could be either way with the personality of the Marquis Kilias.”
“… Well, is that so Is it still a wife and daughter?”
The bloodline itself will never end. The bloodline of the marquis is precious.
Up to the count level, yes.
As long as you take a long time and manage your lineage, it is not impossible to obtain a title even if it takes several generations.
In the southern region, before I came out, there were three counts and two in the east.
But starting from the Marquis, that is difficult.
The fact that there is no marquess in the south indicates the rank of the title.
So, the lineage of a Marquis is precious.
The lineage of the Marquis of Kilias, which was obtained during this war, will probably be complicated to deal with.
Extermination is an absurd story.
“Hmm…”
She looks at me as Alina squints her eyes at me, distracted for a second.
“What… ?”
Why are you looking at me like that
It’s not just Alina. Irina and Amelia, who had come close to her, were also looking at me.
“You know what?”
“What?”
“Really! No more brides!”
“No, what is it?”
What do you mean that
Alina and Irina are shouting against the death penalty.
Only Amelia is nodding her head.
What the heck
“Hmm. The pedigree of the marquis is not bad either. The Baron has Triana, and the Viscount has a chance with Claw if he works hard. Since the Count has Mayana and Irina, it wouldn’t be bad to take this opportunity to swallow the Marquis lineage and aim for the complete lineage.”
“Kyaa! What are you talking about! In the first place, the Marquis is fine because Grace-sama is here!”
He sighed as he watched the two men tremble.
No, I’m not that crazy about women.
“It’s not bad if it’s just a one-night joke. Still, you can’t give Hyperion’s last name.”
“… Okay. Think as you like.”
At Alina’s words, she only shook her head.
