unexpected luck (3)

“This, that…”

Lapori opened her mouth with a trembling voice and then closed her mouth.

Everyone looked at it on the altar with a firm expression.

An ominous aura leaks out even though there are several layers of seals overlapping each other.

The impression of those who saw it was naturally frowned upon by the vicious energy of death.

‘Is this beyond your imagination?’

It was the energy I thought I had gotten used to by absorbing the two fragments, but that was more than I thought.

The first fragment was the one possessed in the oath of Yeokcheon, which was deeply flawed and absorbed the information around it.

The second fragment was the hardened and cohesive one owned by the Brokoslac clan…

‘That doesn’t seem to have any major flaws.’

In addition, the size was as large as the previous two fragments combined.

Of course, I didn’t think it would have been exactly third, but it would make such a difference.

“Well then, let’s begin. Please wait a moment.”

Lafori sighed lightly and closed her eyes on the spot to concentrate, and natural force flowed out of his body.

And it slowly headed toward the altar, and came into contact with the death energy that protruded out of the seal.

resignation—

The energy that started to become contaminated in an instant.

He hastily disconnected and stole a cold sweat.

“Hmm, that’s definitely different from what I thought. I don’t know how long it would have taken if I had just started exploring it as a concentration of black magic.”

Then, as if trying to imprint it in his memory without forgetting, he stood there and stared intently at the energy flowing from the fragments.

While waiting for him to finish his work, the rest of the party just watched…

“Sir Heinrich.”

The saint came and talked to me.

“How do you feel about seeing it in person?”

Unlike usual, those eyes staring at the fragments with a cold, hard expression were to the point that I couldn’t remember the sloppy appearance I had seen in the past.

“What is it…. It’s just great. When one being has such a thing, I think that it is natural that it will be a disaster for the continent.”

“It’s not about holding. It gets eaten.”

The saint resolutely corrected his words.

“A thousand years ago, what should have been at the bottom of the dimension suddenly appeared on the continent for some reason.”

It was a more intimate story about the ‘Heart of the Immortal King’.

Trash cans of the Auterica dimension, all kinds of negative garbage had to exist in one place in the stagnant abyss.

“Perhaps it was the work of a warlock who sought greater power. If I had opened the abyss and summoned that one, it would have been the highest level on the continent at the time…”

“The lust for power, once indulged, has no end.”

The lady sighed and nodded her head.

“It was best to seal it like this, since it already exists on the continent. I can’t open the abyss again to send it back.”

No one being able to fully accept that power and manipulate it properly.

Because that was part of the concept of ‘death’ that had been stagnant and condensed for many years at the bottom of the dimension.

‘When you think about it that way, the Mind Hub looks great.’

Of course, rather than the strength of the skill, it was thanks to its activation structure.

It takes a lot of effort to build a facility that properly seals radiation, but it takes less effort to manage the entrance there.

‘The “Mind Hub” is always activated just by blocking the radiation from leaking out, but that’s enough to handle.’

The undead are immune to mental attacks, so unless they are attacked directly from the spirit world like last time, there was nothing particularly dangerous.

“Honestly, I don’t know why I brought Sir Heinrich here to say this, but this must also be the will of the Lord. I’m sure there will be something that will help you later.”

After speaking, the saint turned her gaze to La Pori again.

And Heinrich glanced at the ceiling in a subtle way.

‘Lord, it’s good to help…’

I couldn’t help but feel like I was being taken care of somehow.

It’s good that it’s a win-win for each other, but something feels…

“Fuu, that’s enough.”

Then Lapori took a deep breath and turned around.

It seemed that the work of imprinting the energy was successfully completed.

“Then let’s go now.”

Following the leader of the heretic inquisitor who again took the lead in the saint’s words, I followed the procedures in the reverse order.

The moment everyone came out without any major problems except for the laporie being a little tired…

“then.”

The voice you hear as soon as you leave the area of Bonginji.

He turned his head to the direction the sound was heard, but the heretic interrogator who was there had disappeared before he knew it.

‘It’s not normal either.’

I couldn’t figure it out for sure, but at least it would be a Paladin class.

It must be the person you should be the most wary of when working in the future.

“It seems that Lapori-sama is overworked today, so it would be better to take a break and talk again tomorrow.”

Archbishop Latius, who had been silently observing the whole time, said the seat was immediately destroyed.

And after Heinrich guided Lapori to the guest house, he headed straight to the training ground.

‘done.’

Recalling what happened inside the seal.

‘All conditions have been met.’

unexpected luck.

Now all that was left was to choose a date of execution.

***

[At last.]

The moment you’ve been waiting for has come.

In addition, I was able to obtain information that would be helpful for the research I had been working on so far.

It is just to find a way to avoid the pursuit of the saint.

‘After all, what the saint pursues is the ‘Fragment of the Immortal King’. Then, if you can hide that, the problem will be solved.’

The basic goal was to put fragments in the subspace and to receive power while maintaining only the connection of black magic.

A pretty plausible plan that was built by combining the subordinate subspace research that I couldn’t do due to lack of time and the “Immortal” skill that I couldn’t use properly.

But the experiment was creaky from the very beginning.

For some reason, I couldn’t put the fragments into the subspace in any way.

At first, I was conducting research on it, wondering if it was because it contained so much energy…

This time, through the saint, I was able to understand the reason.

‘About the origin of fragments. For some reason, I haven’t been able to enter the Ah Space at all.’

An object brought up from the abyss of a dimension and manifested in the world.

It was natural that he could not be moved to another dimension in a normal way.

‘I don’t know if I can use beings that are free from the laws of the world.’

okay.

Like the awakened from another world.

‘As if Hans had freely crossed the dimension with fragments until now.’

Hans was a very unusual being.

Despite being undead, due to the characteristics of 「Avatar」, it is connected to the main body and recognized as an awakened person.

[Khahahaha! After all, using this body is a problem that can be solved!]

Rather than using the other side of the dimension, there have already been some achievements in creating a subspace that is subordinate to the individual.

support staff—

The space was torn apart, and Hans’ empty hands disappeared into the air and then escaped again.

A skeleton staff that had never existed before was held in his hand.

‘The space is not yet a satisfactory size, but it will gradually get better.’

Then, wouldn’t it be solved if we could make this dependent subspace identical to Hans himself?

[I’ll need some coordination. By setting the coordinates of the subordinate subspace to overlap with this body, and scattering the boundaries…]

The strands are already in place, so it won’t take much time.

After that, all that is left is to extract the source with “immortality”, put it in the subordinate subspace, and maintain the connection.

As the dark magic passage is connected, it cannot be completely hidden, but the missing part can be blocked by building a concealment field in the body as it is now.

Even if that was enough, it wouldn’t be a hindrance to walking the continent.

‘Yeah, after this research is over, I’ll be able to work freely after getting the last fragment.’

As long as Heinrich had reached the front of the place where the fragments were sealed, it was as if it had fallen into Hans’s grasp.

‘But I can’t go right now. I’m not ready yet.’

From what I’ve seen, the final fragment was about the size of the two that Hans had absorbed so far combined.

It means that you have a strong energy.

It was impossible to hide the energy immediately after absorbing such things.

It will take a considerable amount of time to fix it…

‘But there’s no way the church can wait for it.’

It would take quite some time to break the seal, which was a formidable level, and it would take quite a while to absorb the fragments.

As soon as you get the shards, you’ll probably have to run away immediately by canceling the summons.

The problem was after that.

‘If you can’t get enough black magic to release it, the guardians will immediately find out where you are and the chase will start.’

It has been well hidden so far, but immediately after absorbing a fragment of the same size as the one I have right now, it was impossible.

‘I can’t help but keep calling. Even if the main body moves to a place far away from the house and breaks up immediately after being summoned, I don’t know what means of tracking it will continue.’

Isn’t it right after the conflict with the Bundchenhoe started?

Even if he found out about his contact with Hans, he wouldn’t be suspicious right away, but he was reluctant to come and take such a risk.

[Khuh- It’s done! this could be possible! Kahahaha!]

Moreover, there is no need to take such risks anymore.

After this experiment is over, you will be able to properly hide the energy of the fragments.

***

“Mr Lapori. Are you all right now?”

“Yeah, it wasn’t that big of a problem. It’s just that I’m tired for a while.”

The next day after checking the fragments of the Immortal King.

They sat down again and talked about what to do next.

About how to track down the Immortal King.

“Once, my friends from Elven Kingdom found a nearby forest suitable for ceremonies. We are making preparations there.”

“Yes, I heard about it. We also supported the materials we needed. So when can the search begin?”

“Hmm···.”

To the question of Archbishop Latius, Lafori thought for a moment, then looked at them and answered seriously.

“The preparations in advance will be finished in two days, so the full-scale ceremony will be able to start in three days.”

The members of the church nodded their heads in agreement.

They also continued their search operation, but there were no results, so they had high expectations for this event.

“Then we must decide in advance which area to search in.”

It took up to a month to check all the forests on the continent, but if you were lucky, you could find it much faster.

chump-

Continental conduction unfolded on a large table.

A map prepared for this operation, marked with separate numbers for areas with a lot of trees.

“Then let’s start with the most probable. Is the part with a larger number judged to have a high probability?”

The saint posed a question to the man in the black priest’s uniform who was present.

He was a heretic interrogator who was in charge of information attending for this operation.

“That’s right. We calculated the probability based on the progress of the search operation and the progress of the previous search operation.”

A gloomy voice emanating from between the hooded hood and the black mask.

‘It’s the first time I’ve ever heard an Inquisitor speak properly.’

The chief of the heretical interrogator who guided the seal was all he said in a short-answer form.

In fact, the saint asked the question directly, and that must mean that she considers this matter important.

Heinrich, who was standing behind the saint, glanced at the map.

Because he was also very interested in this search operation.

‘Let’s see, the forest of monsters… huh?’

<28%>

The highest probability was around 50%, but even considering that, the number was on the low side compared to other regions.

Even though it was the area where the descendants of the Immortal King were discovered first.

‘It’s lower than I thought. Maybe it’s because of the extensive search before?’

As it was the first place where Hans’s death began, Talia’s Immortal King subjugation team had a history of thoroughly examining the area.

Perhaps that result is reflected in the numbers.

“Um, then, let’s put this area first…”

“First of all, looking for this place…”

Those who attended the meeting were busy discussing and arranging the order based on the number.

‘It looks like the Forest of Monsters will be pushed back quite a bit. This should be enough to finish the research before the quest begins.’

I was thinking of changing the course of action depending on the time the search would begin, but the results didn’t seem too bad.

No, it was actually really good.

If everything goes according to plan, it can’t get any better than this.
