Chapter 133

The Present

“Fantastic.”

Galahad shook the skin Tom wiped and handed.

The magic circle engraved on the skin drew the gaze. This was not a simple magic circle. It was art and a work.

“Really the magic beast tamer’s?”

At Adrianne’s question the thought broke. Turning the gaze, Adrianne of a fully firm face was seen.

“Correct, this is the real magic beast tamer’s.”

“Is it that the magic beast tamer is alive?”

“Cannot know if the magic beast tamer oneself or a disciple. Although clear it is the magic beast tamer’s magic circle.”

Galahad long spread the skin.

“Moving that large magic beast, the magic circle is the size of a person’s head. Lightening on an old era magic circle—. truly amazing. The understanding degree regarding magic beasts is amazing. Is one of the parents a magic beast?”

Galahad poured sincere praise.

“Captain, why repeatedly praising the magic beast tamer.”

Gilbert was disgusted and pointed behind. Turning the head, knights hurriedly avoiding the gaze were seen. Their faces were subtle.

“Isn’t the magic beast tamer one of the five great villains.”

Gilbert slightly added.

The five great villains were legendary villains who stood on the demon race’s side at the Dema War time.

Although the Dema War itself is a quite distant matter treated as an old old story in the empire, the North directly contacting the demon race seemed different.

“What correlation the five great villains. Value exists as the thing itself.”

“No, still the five great villains a bit...”

Gilbert was disgusted again.

“You, if meeting the sword ghost who is a five great villain how?”

At Galahad’s question Gilbert momentarily made a hazy expression. Fully furrowed the eyes as if pondering and soon nodded.

“Curious though. The sword ghost’s sword.”

“Same. The important is not the sword, the person holding the sword hilt.”

Galahad said while looking at Adrianne. Adrianne’s eyebrows softly shook.

“This is different in method from the present magic circle. Even looking and following as is could not have done. Only now knowing why there is a degraded version.”

Before thought deliberately spread the degraded version, yet seeing the real the thought changed.

The magic beast tamer’s magic circle was completely different from the present method. A completely different method and unbelievable complexity and precision—. even drawing with the real beside could only become a degraded version.

“Can the captain draw?”

“Sir Gilbert, what thinking of me. It is me who even revised the degraded version. Degree of following and drawing is easy. Although revision would take a bit of time.”

At Galahad’s guarantee Gilbert tilted his head.

“So becoming the magic beast tamer?”

“Sir Gilbert, if you snatch and use a demon race’s sword, become a demon race?”

“Eh, what stupid sound is that.”

“Fine, because you are Gilbert.”

Gilbert blinked his eyes. At that Galahad laughed with a keul keul. Adrianne slightly lowered the hand she slightly raised.

Galahad whose mind is concentrated on the magic circle did not see.

“Although cannot catch and use a magic beast—. can apply this.”

“What sound is applying?”

“Sir Gilbert, you are steadily making effort.”

“Is it a curse?”

“It is praise.”

The magic circle was just a use of inducing the flow of mana. To start needed a medium.

Usually used a mana stone. However, these were magic beasts inside Magic Realm. Impossible with a mana stone.

Then what to use as a medium. The magic circle was red. It was drawn with the sticky demon race’s blood.

“Hmm.”

Galahad seriously smelled that blood’s smell.

If this degree—.

“Used mid-rank demon race’s blood. That too a fresh one.”

It seemed used that even the same rank the demon race’s blood is thicker. Quite efficient.

“Keum—.”

Gilbert lowly cleared his throat. At that turning the head, knights of a somehow fed up face were seen.

“This magic circle used mid-rank demon race’s blood. Because the size of the magic circle is small hard to aim too, a fine method. However—.”

Then, one side became noisy. Thump thump foot sounds were heard.

“Came just in time. It is a magic beast!”

“Everyone correct the formation!”

Adrianne shouted right away.

“It is an attack!”

“Damn, not giving a gap to rest.”

The reaction was quite fast as a direct unit. Surrounded Galahad and the Special Mission Unit.

The defense form was firmer than before. Particularly placing centered on Galahad was a form as if protecting a guest of honor.

Because excessively concentrated on Galahad Adrianne became completely separated. Exactly an abandoned form.

“Centered on Captain Galahad!”

Adrianne ordered to make the defense more thorough.

Galahad’s mind was already concentrated on another place. Galahad dug into the magic circle in detail.

‘A 12-layer magic circle, really amazing.’

This magic circle was different from the current magic circle method. Quite crude and intuitive. Yet not simple. Rather because crude more complex.

Although shouts burst around and weapon sounds were heard, Galahad’s gaze was stuck on the magic circle.

Galahad examining the magic circle suddenly a good thought rose.

‘Ah, if the medium is mid-rank demon race’s blood—.’

Galahad’s corners of the mouth deeply rose.

*

‘Fuck, damn many!’

The knight of the direct unit Carrot muttered a curse. Magic beasts poured from all sides.

Although Magic Realm is the demon race’s main camp, felt uniquely facing more. Exactly as if someone is attacking—.

‘Said magic beast tamer.’

Carrot muttered while glancing at Galahad inside.

Magic beasts charged aiming at Galahad from all sides. In the middle of fighting risking life to block that.

Yet Galahad was calm. In the middle of examining the skin as if reading a book.

Although an appearance the inside would twist, unlike before there was not even one complaining.

Because knowing how important a role Galahad plays. There was no one stupid to the extent not knowing that value.

Even if Galahad openly sleeps would not say anything. They just clenched their teeth and protected Galahad.

However, the twisted guy was always one.

“Quite comfortable alone.”

Someone lowly complained. Did not say largely. Just a small monologue. At that Carrot glared at the guy.

Then—,

“Ah, just a moment.”

Galahad lightly waved his hand.

The wind continuously blowing stopped with a ttuk—. the pushed ashes rushed like a huge wave.

Soon the death fog fully covered the surroundings. Magic Realm came again. Thick darkness where even one chi in front is not seen was full.

“Quickly the fog—!”

“Nothing is seen!”

“What guy complained! This eighteen!”

Large sounds burst in places. This direct unit was composed only of ones who have entered Magic Realm. Such a direct unit largely shook.

Because the difference was felt larger because was there and gone. Curses poured on the guy who complained. The guy who complained largely apologized.

Then, Carrot received a subtle feeling. At that turning the head—.

“Gwen, if throwing upward would be better!”

“Understood! Ex—plo—sion—fire—ball—!”

“Sir Gilbert, the left seems a bit empty!”

“Knight— Gilbert!”

“Hungry.”

“Damien, here!”

‘Why are these familiar?’

Although clearly the Special Mission Unit would not have entered Magic Realm, leisurely to a severe degree.

Even the kid tore jerky. Even the soldier shouldering the load did not fluster.

Felt more familiar with Magic Realm than the direct unit.

“Fine! Just the view is blocked!”

The soldier called Tom rather even encouraged the surrounding knights.

“Tch, flustering with just this degree. The name 1st Battalion is wasteful!”

What is this—.

Then, white aura spouted from one side. The knights scattered. Adrianne urgently approached.

‘Lady Adrianne not guarding the lead—.’

Carrot’s eyes became round.

“Is there any matter!”

Adrianne largely waved her hand. At the fully risen aura the ashes were lightly erased. Only then Galahad was seen.

Galahad—.

‘Laughing?’

Was laughing brighter than before. Exactly a face like a child holding a fun toy.

“There was something to confirm.”

“Yes?”

“Controlling a living being is not easy. Not for nothing mental interference is classified as high-level magic. Although a magic beast is a bit easier because faithful to instinct more than a beast, instead needs thick density mana.”

Adrianne blinked her eyes at the pouring words.

“Although this magic circle possesses amazing delicacy, cannot be perfect. Because perfection is an ideal that cannot be reached.”

Galahad brightly laughed and flicked his finger.

······!!

A terrible howl was heard from one side. That howl spread to all sides as if infectious. Soon dull impact sounds were continuously heard.

Something flew between the fog.

“For example even if slightly touching like this it goes astray.”

Galahad calmly waved his hand. Soon the wind pushed the ashes.

Then what is seen—.

‘······Magic beasts fighting each other?’

It was magic beasts biting each other’s nape. The magic beasts chewed each other with a jjalgeun jjalgeun. Attacked without caring even if one’s neck is cut.

The magic beasts’ combat was desperate. Continuously tore and ate until the movement stops. Blood fully splashed and flesh pieces sprayed.

The magic beasts charging were fighting among themselves. That too while flesh pieces splash—.

Why saying magic beasts are entangled and fighting. No, magic beasts originally fought among themselves. Not for nothing they call these a colony.

However, aren’t these magic beasts the bizarre magic beasts that surrounded this side until just now.

Not understanding why suddenly returned to the original magic beast.

“How did this happen?”

At Adrianne’s question everyone turned their gazes. That direction was again Galahad.

“Mana flows from a place of low density to high. Applied that law.”

Galahad brightly laughed while shaking the skin. Exactly a smile parents would make when showing off a child. Adrianne’s eyebrows softly furrowed.

“This magic circle basically uses a 12-layer formula. To use the magic beast’s thick mana density—. no. Come, try smelling once.”

As Galahad held out the skin, everyone stepped back one step. Adrianne hesitated for a moment and smelled.

“How?”

“Foul.”

“Correct, because used the demon race’s blood.”

Adrianne’s nose slightly furrowed. Soon Adrianne nodded.

“Originally if mid-rank demon race’s blood would be sufficient. Because no matter how thick Magic Realm’s mana density is not as thick as the demon race’s blood. But if instantaneously spraying mana of mid-rank demon race’s mana density or more?”

Galahad shook the skin. The magic circle engraved on that skin melted and flowed down.

“Cannot help but break. Because mana flows to a place of high density.”

Galahad threw the melted skin back and grinned.

Carrot slightly looked around. Everyone was a similar expression. A face as if heard a foreign language somewhere.

There was not even one understanding face.

“That··· so. Amazing.”

Adrianne awkwardly applauded. At that everyone belatedly followed and applauded.

“Ah, this part is the most fun though—.”

At Galahad explaining following everyone turned their gazes.

Damien who was concentrating alone dozed with a kkubeok.

****

“So beat the magic beast tamer?”

Gilbert roughly asked. Raising the head, surrounding gazes were seen. Everyone was looking at Galahad with an astonished face.

‘Indeed to these would look so.’

Although the magic beast tamer’s magic circle was delicate, yet could not be perfect. Galahad accurately aimed at that weakness.

Ambiguous to see as beating that. Because the guy who engraved the magic circle was no different from abandoning this magic beast.

“This is not winning and losing. Aimed at the part the magic circle cannot be perfect and dismantled.”

“Then lost?”

“Is there only winning and losing in the world?”

“Isn’t it?”

Gilbert furrowed his nose. Truly a Gilbert-like face.

“If really arguing won. Because I dismantled the opponent’s weakness.”

“As expected captain, amazing. Even beating the magic beast tamer.”

Haha, at Gilbert refreshingly laughing Galahad gave up denial.

The combat was the finishing stage. Thanks to the magic beasts biting each other. Other knights cleaned the remaining magic beasts.

The knights who were grumbling until now moved smartly. Among them there was also a guy raising a salute if eyes meet with Galahad.

“Gathered only the good state ones. If needing more will prepare.”

Tom held out a bundle of skins. Galahad confirmed those skins one by one. Cleanly wiped avoiding only the magic circle part.

As expected Tom.

The finish ended soon.

Galahad who finished the skins flicked his hand.

The wind fluttered and pushed the ashes.

Exactly, as if this place is a path—.

It was the side the four-legged demon race’s signal comes.

Adrianne stood at the lead.

Magic Realm as the demon race’s main camp, magic beasts and demon races continuously came out.

The magic beasts charging noisily were better, yet there were also magic beasts coming out from the ground or falling from the sky.

If wearing the magic beast tamer’s magic circle, Galahad could disband, yet gradually raw magic beasts or demon races appeared.

To prepare for that had to maintain demon race detection and view securing.

Magic Realm’s mana density was extreme. Needed density of at least low-rank magic beast or more.

Maintaining detection and view securing simultaneously in such Magic Realm was a difficult matter even to Galahad.

However, there was sufficient value to be so.

Because detecting the demon race and even securing the view, the direct unit could exert power freely.

“The mood seems good?”

“Naturally good. Because the opportunity to practice magic freely like this is not common.”

Gilbert was disgusted and withdrew.

However, as always variables occurred between smoothness.

In the middle of blocking the raid of a bizarrely shaped mid-rank magic beast. Then, subtle coolness rushed.

Because the magic beast repeatedly flips eyes and charges, something caught on the mana sprayed just in case.

Tak, Galahad released the detection and raised a barrier. Soon a translucent barrier rose. Something transparent struck the barrier.

It was formless high-density mana pointed like an arrow.

‘It is authority.’

In the middle of combat with a magic beast, daring ambush with authority—. Galahad released the wind and raised detection. Firmly made the barrier.

Soon found demon races a little away. One high-rank demon race and mid-rank demon races.

‘It is a colony.’

Adrianne’s explanation that a demon race forms a colony from high-rank rose.

At that time Adrianne said high-rank demon races oppose each other, so there would be no king.

Such demon races moving together with a magic beast was a quite mysterious matter. Even placing the magic beast in front, and spraying authority from behind.

However, that degree was sufficiently a matter within the category.

The unique was the guys’ attire. The demon races were in a state of armed like soldiers.

Although even saying armed it was all rusty iron armor, the problem was the pattern engraved on that.

“Ha, demon race bastards wearing as if becoming soldiers. No sense?”

Gilbert clicked his tongue and fixed the sword.

This side’s number was many. Even if a demon race raids together with a magic beast could sufficiently block.

There was no Galahad’s answer. At that Gilbert who turned his head was startled with a heumchit.

Galahad’s face was fully furrowed.

Exactly as if saw something that should not be seen—.

The Galahad who always contained a leisurely smile showing such a reaction? Gilbert narrowly opened his eyes and examined the demon race.

The unique point was only that crude armament. Although there was a crest on the armament, it was one seeing for the first time.

“Hmm, that is the empire’s crest though. This a bit amazing.”

At Galahad’s blunt muttering Gilbert tilted his head.

“Yes? The empire’s crest is not that?”

“Not Gilbert-like. It is the correct answer. Not the present empire.”

Galahad furrowed his eyes. It was a face seeing for the first time.

‘The present empire?’

Gilbert woke Damien and held the sword.

Damien also held the sword.
