70 – Helena Le Silvest

At Rayman’s words, everyone in the carriage lowered their eyes.

“What is the approximate number?”

“It’s hard to see because of the snowstorm, but I think there are over 40 of them.”

“It’s not an ordinary beast, it’s more than 40 monsters….”

I thought for a moment.

Can we really deal with monsters over 40?

“Rayman. Aline.”

“Yes. Marquis.”

“Why are you calling? Lord.”

“Can you subdue them all?”

In the past, I would have sought help from Fenia, but I asked as I looked at Aline and Rayman who had grown up.

Then they answered without any hesitation.

“Yes. You can.”

“Of course.”

“Yes. Then go.”

The two of them nodded and immediately turned their feet toward the wolf pack at my command.

And that was the moment when I was about to rush towards the crowd coming down the mountain.

“Wait. Wait.”

Penia, who had been watching us quietly, called the two of them to their feet.

“Rayman. Can you use your aura now too?”

“…… Yes. That’s right.”

Ramon’s eyebrows raised slightly.

Although she hasn’t explained that she can use an aura yet, Fenia seems taken aback when she notices that he can use an aura right away.

“Then it won’t be easy to deal with a pack of wolves.”

“Yes.”

“If you do that, you won’t be able to practice. Rail. Use gravity magic on these two to make their bodies heavier.”

“What is that……. Ugh!”

But before Rayman could understand Fenia’s intentions, I used gravity magic to make the two of them a bit heavier.

Maybe it was the first time he had ever experienced being heavy, but Rayman couldn’t keep his balance well.

“This is how gravity magic felt… ….”

However, it’s easy to get used to it! Rayman drew his sword and swung it lightly.

Wheek-!

With the sound of cutting the wind, everyone’s eyes turned to Rayman.

I could see how much Rayman’s swordsmanship skills had grown even though he had only lightly cut through the air.

Allin also looked at Rayman’s sword, and her eyebrows moved slightly as if she was a little surprised.

“Are you ready?”

“Yes. You can run into the herd right now.”

I nodded. Then he turned around and looked at Aline next to him.

Aline, who has often made her body heavy with gravity magic, did not show the slightest sign even though her body was twice as heavy.

“I am also ready.”

“Yes. Your body is heavier than usual, so don’t be vigilant and go.”

The moment I was about to let Rayman and Aline go again,

Fenia tilted her head and looked at me.

“What are you talking about? Rail, you should go too.”

“Me too?”

“Uh. You haven’t been training well for several days with the excuse that you’ve been working in the corner of your room lately, haven’t you?”

“Yeah, but… ….”

“Then don’t waste any more time and go quickly.”

At the same time, Fenia stood up from her seat and pointed her staff at her.

Then,

“…… !”

For a moment, I felt a weight weighing down my entire body.

Crazy. It looks like it’s at least three times as heavy!

I glared at Fenia with her eyes wide open.

But despite my gaze, she didn’t care. She raised her finger and pointed to the top of her mountain.

“Move quickly. Now the wolves are right under your nose.”

“Tsk.”

Clicking her tongue, I stopped snowballing with Fenia, drew her sword, and looked at Aline and Rayman.

“Rayman. Aline. Don’t let them reach the wagon.”

“Yes!”

“Okay. Lord.”

And with that said, we simultaneously jumped into the pack of wolves.

*

The remaining people in the wagon watched from a safe place as the rail party headed toward the wolf pack with their heavy bodies.

“Can we subdue that many packs of wolves in such a blizzard?”

Iris asked with a worried expression as she saw those who ran towards the pack of wolves.

“Wouldn’t that be fine?”

“Yes? Didn’t Fenia-nim decide that it was okay and send it?”

“I don’t know exactly what will happen with the blizzard and gravity magic. Don’t worry too much, I can help you if you decide it’s dangerous.”

“…… Yes.”

Iris couldn’t trust Fenia’s words, but she couldn’t help but nodded her head to the fact that she was the greatest wizard on the continent.

Iris let out a deep sigh and prayed to God that the rails would not get hurt.

And after her brief prayer, Iris raised her head again and turned her head out of her window.

Hui-Iik-!

Because of the fierce snowstorm, it is impossible to see if the rail party is doing the subjugation safely.

I wanted to use divine power to help, but it seemed that Fenia had a different idea after seeing how she subjugated a pack of wolves with a penalty.

Iris, who looked outside the window like that, found Helena staring at her through the window.

She was looking out the window, as if she could see the rails in this blizzard.

In the end, unable to contain her curiosity, Iris asked Helena, who was concentrating on her.

“Is Helena able to see the outside?”

“Yes? Ah, since I was little, I have good eyesight, so I can see far away.”

Iris admired Helena’s shy reaction.

“Then can you explain the situation?”

“Yes. Of course.”

With her head nodded, Helena looked away from Iris and looked out her window again.

Then she begins her explanation, keeping her gaze out the window.

“Allen is leading the way, clearing the way for the pack. And behind her, she has Lady Rayman and her Marquis slashing the throng that are charging towards Lord Alyn.”

“Ohh.”

“Alyn-sama and Rayman-sama are originally swordsmen, so they fight well, but the marquis is a magician, but his movements are unusual.”

Although Iris couldn’t see Helena’s detailed explanation, she listened to Helena’s explanation with a little excitement.

“Uh…… ?”

However, as she continued her explanation, Helena’s eyes were colored with bewilderment for the first time.

“What, what happened?! Are you seriously hurt?”

And Iris asked with a worried face that Helena’s reaction might have somehow injured the Rail group.

“Oh, no. People who can use Auras are rare even in the center, but I was a little surprised to see that both Allin-sama and Rayman-sama are using Auras.”

“Oh, I see. I’m glad you weren’t injured.”

Iris let out a sigh of relief.

She was an Iris who, for some reason, felt like she was letting out her sighs often today.

Iris looked out the window, where she was invisible as a blizzard.

‘Raman-sama and Aline-sama, both of you can use Aura… ….’

Iris felt once again that the people around Rail were all talented people.

She then turned her head to look at Lucas, her own knight sitting next to her own.

He was staring out the window with blank eyes.

It was as if the rail party was watching it, but seeing that he was looking in a different direction from Helena, Rayman didn’t seem to see the outside either.

Maybe feeling that Iris was looking at him, Rayman awkwardly turned his head the other way.

“… ….”

Lucus entered the temple and was protected from many threats, but Iris began to doubt Lucas’ skills the more she stayed in Rail’s mansion.

And after a while, the rail party returned to the wagon.

“Is everyone okay?”

“Ha ha ha…. It’s okay…. Holy Maiden.”

The appearance of the rail party who returned from the subjugation were all in poor condition.

There were no visible wounds on any of them, but even in the cold winter with a blizzard, their bodies were wet with sweat as if they had been caught in the rain.

“It took longer than expected, but good job everyone.”

Fenia gave a small wave of her staff with a satisfied expression on her face.

Then, even after the subjugation was over, the gravity magic that hadn’t been released disappeared, and Rail finally sat down.

“Tsk. Everyone smells like sweat.”

Fenia clicked her tongue and flicked her fingers lightly as she looked at the rail crew.

In that moment, the body and clothes that were wet with sweat changed neatly as if they had been freshly washed.

“But what to do with those corpses?”

Reil, who took a break in the carriage, looked up at the corpses of the wolf pack piled up behind the carriage and said,

And the answer Phenia said she had forewarned while she was in the carriage.

“It is better to sell the corpses to the guild in the center. With this amount of monsters, not only the bounty money, but also the ears of the imperial family will be heard.”

“I don’t think it’s going to reach the imperial family just because you caught a pack of wolves, right?”

At Rail’s question, Fenia immediately shook her head.

“It would have been if the ones you caught were ordinary wolves, but what you caught was a monster. Besides, if monsters attack in groups, it’s difficult for the imperial family to deal with easily.”

“Hmm.”

Rail nodded as if he understood Fenia’s words.

And I thought that this subjugation would develop in a pretty good way.

‘If news of us circulates in the ears of the imperial family, I will be one step closer to entering the center of my dream.’

Finishing his thoughts, Rail raised his head and spoke to the coachman.

“We are behind schedule, so let’s head to the ballroom.”

“Yes. Marquis.”

So the carriage started moving again, moving faster than before to the ballroom.

*

Like that, the time was close to night before we knew it, and fortunately we were able to arrive at the ballroom just in time.

“We have arrived at the ballroom!”

We nodded at the coachman’s words and got off the carriage.

And I looked at Helena from the carriage and said goodbye.

“I’m sorry, but I think you will have to go back alone from here.”

“No. Thanks to you, I came here comfortably.”

“Sure. It would be nice to have another relationship next time.”

After we said our last goodbyes, we immediately stepped up to the ballroom.

“…… There you are, Helena.”

“Yes?”

But somehow Helena didn’t go to the main street, she walked right next to me.

Are you sure you don’t know the way to downtown?

“Do you not know the direction of the road?”

“No. I am going this way too.”

“Oh, I see.”

I awkwardly scratched the back of my head at the fact that they were simply in the same direction.

It was as if I was saying goodbye to my successors on the day of my discharge, but the bus didn’t start, so I felt like I was sitting awkwardly for a while.

“Sure.”

Then I walked through her snow and arrived right in front of her ballroom, said her real, her last goodbye, and opened the door to her huge ballroom.

As if we were the last to arrive this time, the eyes of the people in the hall were directed towards us.

No. To be precise, everyone’s eyes were focused on Helena, who crossed in front of us.

Ttogak. Again.

The sound of her shoes echoed lightly in the hall.

As if she doesn’t care about the cold mid-winter weather, her thin red dress flutters in the wind.

Everyone, regardless of gender, salivates at her beautiful looks, as if she were painting a picture, along with her wavy red hair.

Helena, who caught everyone’s attention in the hall, walked to the center of the stage without hesitation.

After taking a quick look around her, she moved her feet towards an empty seat.

And Helena sat lightly on a red chair studded with beautiful jewels, not the usual black chair the others sat on.

Seductively sitting cross-legged, she cupped her chin in her hand and opened her mouth with a smile.

“It’s been a while since I’ve been to a ball. This is Helena Le Silvest.”

Everyone stopped at Helena’s voice.

No one was able to move their bodies so easily that it felt as if time had stopped.

Because no one in the ballroom did not know the name Helena Le Silvest.

Helena Le Silvest.

The third daughter of Emperor Sylvest.

She was one of the candidates for the next emperor.
