“Okay, so you've been stuck here for 200 years? ”

“No... I want that...”

“That's the only option, right? ”

“… Yes. If it weren't for that, he'd be dead. ”

I was able to talk a lot with Iselia, who was demoted as a commoner.

Of course, the questions are one-sided stories that only I can tell.

"What the hell was Mayslin up to?" ’

What I learned from talking to him was that the Black Wizard Mayslin had imprisoned Iselia here.

It is also true that this orb, called the fragment, is the heart of Baryon, the High Priest of Harv Maim.

“Iselia, I heard that the Baryons were defeated in the war and that only the souls were sealed in the Abyss. How can his heart exist?“ ”

“…. You really went to Havmime, where the Baryon is buried. You know the Abyss. ”

“I don't know about you, but out there I'm what's called a loyal mercenary, Kaian. Far from a lie. Answer my question. If you really want to go to Harvey Mime. ”

When I spit out a story I didn't know unless I was a monster or went to Harvest Mime, the eyes of the creature who was rolling my head in secret to reverse this situation completely died.

“Even for me, I don't know the details. It's just... I think it's because Baryon's heart is a vessel for souls. ”

“A vessel for souls... So you can't destroy his heart if you want to?" ”

“If I'm right. The Baryon is immortal. He's a great guy. ”

Baryon is the most blessed of the four gods of Havmime.

Who the hell was he?

Every time I put the Baryon in my mouth, I was very curious to see the one who had a close look at the praise.

“Iselyan. Why did Maezlin save your life? And how he got a piece of the Baryon's heart. ”

“I don't know how he got his hands on the shrapnel... But he was trying to use me to gain the power of his heart. ”

“The power of the heart... So it was him who gathered this life force? ”

“Yes, it is. I was trying to gather human life through myself and use that power to gain the power of my heart. It failed.”

The power of the monster in the Black Bead was equivalent to the Canyon, which gained the power of three monsters.

With that kind of power, you can tap the master of error lightly.

But what would have happened if Mayslin had gotten her hands on that power?

"Terrible... I don't know what he was, but if it worked, the Church wouldn't have stopped him. ’

I know him well because I've been up against him.

I was able to fight him with insufficient strength because I always had skills.

But I can't believe the guy with the skills is after this kind of power.

“... Where's Mayslin? And why did he leave the pieces with the Runters? ”

Even if I failed, why would I leave a fragment of tremendous power in the hands of a human?

I looked at Iselia with curiosity, and she opened her mouth, looking at me.

“... promise me one thing first. I'll help you get to Harvest Mime. ”

“You? Even if I help you... How can you do that without the flesh? ”

“I'll take care of that. Will you help me?”

Iselia looks at me with pitiful eyes like a puppy wet in the rain.

How many humans has he eaten?

To be this human.

“… if I get what I want. So tell me everything you know. ”

Iselia nods vigorously to see if I've gained hope.

On the other hand, I don't understand the behavior of a man who only believes in human words, but I do understand a little bit when I think that he has been stuck here yearning for Harvard Mime for 200 years.

‘Whatever it is, it's not bad for me. Let's make use of it. ’

When I finished thinking, he opened his mouth and told me to tell Iselia.

“I don't know what's wrong with him. He left the shrapnel in the human hands and said he'd come back 100 years later. ”

“… 100 years? ”

“Yes, 100 years. You said you'd help me if you saved as much life as you could until then. ”

“... He must be Rich. ”

It is impossible for a high magician to live that long in my common sense.

Not if he's an Elf like Elder Elaine.

“That's right, that's Rich. I heard you're a high magician. ”

“How many more years is he talking about? ”

“... It's been a long time since 100 years. He tricked me! I saved this many lives as promised...! ”

Iselia bites her teeth as if she were angry.

“You broke your promise... Something happened to him. ”

Hearing Iselia's words, the thought came to my mind that he was already dead.

If not, there's no reason to leave the fragments to the Runter family even after 100 years have passed as promised.

“Fragments... How many heart fragments in total? ”

“I don't know exactly. I'm just guessing there's at least ten. ”

“Ten? Crazy...”

When I said ten, I insulted myself.

That means that the Baryon is ten times more powerful than the Canyon that took at least three out of his power.

‘No matter how blessed God is... Is that even possible? ’

With that kind of power, it's beyond common sense.

What's even more shocking is that the Great Wizard defeated him.

That means he has at least that much power.

“What happened in the past... it doesn't make sense. ”

As I climbed up to the master, my pride and confidence that I didn't recognize disappeared in an instant.

A creature of such great power exists on the continent of Unicia.

‘... With that kind of power, wouldn't it be possible to make monster waves? ’

Along with the shock of his powerful power, there was a growing suspicion about him.

Even with the exception of other evidence, if it's true that he has that kind of power, it's true that he's guarding an easily preventable war.

‘If he really is the one who caused the monster wave, what should I do...?' Revenge? For someone so powerful? ’

You wrap your hands around your head, forgetting that you were talking to Iselia.

Until I ran away from the burning homeland, I only thought about revenge.

I'm going to kill my family and the people who did this to this town.

A dream so futile that only fifteen boys can dream.

But after meeting the player system, there was hope. If you try like hell, you can make that dream come true.

But right now, that hope is about to collapse. Miserable.

“Hey... are you okay? ”

The sound of Iselia's voice fading in your ears lifts your head.

‘Yes, not yet... It's too early to give up. ’

Did he really do that?

It's not too late to find out what his purpose is and become desperate.

The poison that was so deeply positioned inside the poison that it only broke down because of this.

“... Thank you. I woke up. ”

“Huh?”

“Iselia, did you do that to me? You can give me this power if you want. ”

If you don't have enough strength, you can become stronger than you are now.

Looking at Iselia with his red eyes, he frowned and swallowed his saliva.

“If you just promise to help me... I can give it to you. It's a power I don't need. ”

“What is your purpose? Going back to Havmime? Or…”

At first, I thought he was desperate enough to go back to his hometown when he was clinging to Havmime.

But when he thought about it, he realized that there was another purpose.

“To take this heart back to Havmime and resurrect the Baryons? ”

“Well, that's...”

The look in his eyes is bewildered by what I'm saying.

There is no assurance that the Barion will be resurrected just because there is a fragment. I've never done it.

However, if it's the same race as Iselia, isn't there something we can do?

“Why do you want to resurrect him? ”

“... That's right. When I get back to Harv Mime, I'm going to resurrect the Baryon. He's the only reason my kind will come back to life...”

“I see... But even if I go back, there's only one fragment. What about the remaining nine fragments? ”

“A complete resurrection is hard, but I can resurrect Baryon unsafely with one fragment. ”

I will resurrect the man who burned the world's water in the ancient age and killed an enormous number of people and Elves.

Fortunately, even if it goes according to Iselia's plan, his strength is about a tenth of a minute.

“Unlike others who have forgotten the Baryon War, I know it well. ”

“Yes, I know. I wouldn't have asked you to help me if you didn't know any of that in the first place. This is because you saw hope...”

Obviously, he's created this situation because you have the information he wants. Otherwise, his life would have already been lost to him.

“And you want me to help you resurrect the man who caused it? There could be a war again. ”

“That's... not our fault. It's the fault of the continent that stole our gods. If I just gave it back to God, there wouldn't be a war. ”

After the creature at Harv Mime, another tale of the gods is revealed.

A monster claims that we stole their god.

“I heard that already. But... is that really possible? Stealing the existence of God. Who the hell?”

“I don't know the details. He was the only one who knew the whole truth. But it's true that the continent of UNESIA stole the god of Harvard Maim. ”

Though I suspect so far, he's only told me the truth.

So there's a good chance this story is true, too.

“… Yes, let's say that. So you're saying that if the Baryons come back to life, they're going to start a war again, and you want me to watch the same humans die? ”

“There will be no war... because the power of one fragment will not defeat the High Priest of the continent." Lord Baryon is a wise man. ”

“High Priestess?”

“Yes, the High Priest on your continent. I defeated the Baryon. ”

Suddenly, my head twitches like a wreck.

Is the High Priestess Iselia talking about the Grand Wizard?

“The Baryon fell to the Grand Wizard, didn't he? He's the High Priestess? ”

“Hmm? Ah! You mean that lowlife. Not him, the High Priestess. You don't know the High Priestess? ”

Iselia tilts her head as if she doesn't understand.

“... Just in case. Are you talking about the High Priestess? ”

“What are you talking about? Why would a High Priest belong to a cult made by Humans? He's the protector of the continent. ”

“So... ugh! ”

I closed my eyes for a moment, grasping the itchy head with my hands.

I thought you said there were no high priests on the continent except the Grand Wizard. Like the Baryons. ’

Then he also has tremendous power.

Why is it that such a creature is not known on the continent? And if you have that kind of power, why don't you stop the monster waves?

“… is it true? ”

“I don't understand. How can you not know the High Priest of your own continent? ”

I'm a strange person just by looking at Iselia's expression and tone.

He looked at me with a pathetic look on his face.
