Winter Castle (9)

I unknowingly adjusted my clothes.

Catrel Phylasia. So now Deron’s father got married when he wasn’t a duke?

Come to think of it, there was no story about Deron’s mother, strangely enough, in the duke’s house.

There weren’t even those common portraits, but what if the duke was actually trying to hide his dragon wife?

It’s understandable enough.

“Big, big.”

I coughed a couple of times and looked at Baekryong, no, my mother.

She didn’t seem to realize that I was her son.

Hagisa, even if I were a parent, I wouldn’t blindly think of a guy with a magi on his body as a child.

“Hmm… … .”

Still, she looks around my body. I swallowed my saliva.

Why are you suddenly nervous?

White Dragon looked at me suspiciously and murmured.

“I really do look alike.”

I carefully grabbed the handle of the sword in reverse. The sword, which was originally a staff, could not function as a staff properly due to a scabbard that had been forgotten somewhere.

Probably on this handle… .

‘have.’

Smooth polished handle. A lion’s head carved in the middle. The symbol of the Philasia family that Petra would have engraved.

I fiddle with it.

“Hey, are you… .”

“Do you want to ask if the son of the Duke of Philasia is correct?”

Pretending not to know, he pushed forward.

The white dragon’s gaze turned toward the sword handle.

“… … !”

Her eyes grew bigger and bigger. Looks like you’ve seen the pattern.

He looked at Baekryong, who covered his mouth in surprise, and said.

“Do you remember which family this emblem belongs to?”

“… Can you forget it?”

An expression that seemed to recall an old memory that I missed infinitely. She reached out slowly towards me.

A soft hand touches my cheek. warm and it’s cozy This warmth was so comfortable that I closed my eyes involuntarily.

“My child… Even though it was right in front of me, I didn’t recognize it.”

There are things you can see even with your eyes closed.

My vision was dark, but somehow, beyond this darkness, she seemed to be smiling.

I miss you very much, and it’s like seeing something vague. with a happy face.

She kept stroking my cheeks.

“So you don’t know?”

“If I had known, I would not have pretended not to know. Are you going to pretend you don’t know what’s good?”

“but… .”

White Dragon looked at me with a serious expression on his chin.

After finding out that I was her child, she asked the source of the magic in my body.

But I couldn’t answer that question. couldn’t I’m dying to know too, how do you tell me?

“No matter how I look at it, I don’t know. It’s more accurate to think that it was created rather than put in by someone. When I gave birth to you, there was no Magi.”

“Is there something even a dragon doesn’t know?”

“Because even dragons are not gods. Omniscience and omnipotence are the realm of God.”

She sighed and pulled away from me.

It seems like they have checked all of their bodies. Still, it doesn’t seem to have found a way to cure it.

“Magic keeps accumulating. If we keep going like this, someday, the Magi will run wild.”

“Is there any way to stop that?”

“Utilizing the elixir or the efficacy contained in the inner stage, forcing it to turn on… .”

The white dragon’s eyes became sharp. Her gaze turned to my sword. A sword that has been dulled by missing teeth.

“Or suppress the magic with a concentrated amount of mana.”

The moment I listened to her, I realized the path I had to take.

In the end, was it destined to progress from intermediate to advanced, from advanced to superlative?

… Acius was right.

“Looking at what he has endured so far, it seems that Cartrel drank quite a bit of the elixir.”

“I ate a little too much.”

“Now, I have reached the end of the intermediate level. right?”

“… … yes.”

How did you fit it? I nodded my head as I thought about it.

Baekryong looked at me with a smirk and smiled.

“Looks like you are blocked by the wall of your superiors?”

I gasped and opened my mouth slightly.

She fiddled with my sword as if it were plastic.

How did know?

“They say you can tell how much a man wielded this weapon by looking at his sword. Just look at your sword. The teeth are blunt, but the handle is clean.”

“… … .”

“My child. You are so full of talent. So, of course, I came over without going through the wall I had to go through.”

Same word as Professor Arcdin. That he didn’t have to go through a wall from lower class to intermediate class.

“… So what should I do? I didn’t feel the intermediate wall as you said. The professor at the academy said the same thing.”

“Then you can’t do it. All you have to do is use your talents to the fullest.”

“The talent you have… ?”

tilted his head. Do you have any talents that you can use more here? Wasn’t it blocked due to too much talent in the first place?

As if piercing through my thoughts, White Dragon picked up my sword.

“I couldn’t feel the wall due to my talent, and part of my mana was suppressing my magic. Then, shouldn’t it be your responsibility to control that magic?”

“It’s easy in words, but difficult in practice… .”

“It will be difficult. Of course it’s difficult. But that’s all.”

My sword is mixed with magic. When was it removed from the body? Very little, but surely that is Magi.

You can see an evil energy creeping into the air.

“Deron, the other humans answer that they can’t handle Magi. I’m not saying it’s ‘difficult’ like you.”

“… … .”

“It will be difficult and difficult, but if you can control your magic. If you make it possible… .”

My mouth is moving. It seems she knows what to say next.

“We can get out of the deadline.”

“answer.”

White Dragon held out his sword to me. A sword that can’t be used because it has lost its teeth. Still, it’s the sword I’ve been using.

I stare at it.

wow.

forcefully grabbed Fingers naturally find their place.

Grabbing her throbbing hair, she exited the portal.

She called this round circle a portal.

“I was looking for a clue, but I found my way.”

A road that should not be taken, with a curfew written on it as well.

I sighed. There were many things I wanted to ask, but Baekryong stopped me.

“Originally, a dragon who has finished playing once should never face the world until the time passes again. Talking to you is also taboo.”

Baekryong said so and asked me to say hello. In the name of Arwen Pylasia, that a moment’s play becomes an eternal promise.

He asked me to deliver these words to Catrel Pylasia.

“The eternity we promised is still in my heart, so don’t worry.”

The white dragon who said that, no, Arwen’s expression was sad.

I nodded my head without saying a word.

The vow of eternity, the marriage between dragons and humans.

Wasn’t it really sad?

I looked at the snowy field where the portal had now disappeared and moved on.

To her, meeting with me must have been a moment’s play. Or was it an eternity bound in blood?

Arwen himself would not know.

But it would be okay if it warmed a part of your heart.

I entered the inside with a smile.

“Gweek!”

Mr. A. I was in a good mood

When I saw the vomit protruding a little through the open gate, I frowned.

I walked, trying not to step as much as possible.

Are you still having a party?

“… ”

Inside the venue, the people of the winter castle were finishing the party with laughter.

It was obvious that he drank a lot, seeing that the glasses and bottles were all gone.

“Oh mate. Are you awake?”

Bell came over to me and patted me on the back. I looked around while squinting my eyes.

The smell of alcohol vibrated. Yet, strangely, Bell does not emit this terrifying stench.

It’s been that way ever since. While sophomore Iridun wandered around drunk, she wasn’t drunk at all.

… How the hell are you drinking?

“Aren’t you feeling dizzy even after drinking that much?”

“For people in winter, this kind of alcohol is like water.”

While looking at her with a puzzled expression, she thought of a country on Earth and turned her head.

It’s cold like this, and people’s personalities… There’s a good chance.

“By the way, Deron, will you take Agnes with you?”

“You mean Agnes?”

“Uh, exactly three? He drank and stretched out.”

Where she pointed, Agnes leaned against the wall and closed her eyes.

Still, I didn’t get drunk… ! It was a little cute to mumble.

Watching Agnes intoxicated, he sighed.

The empress and that woman I saw today are the same person.

“All right.”

“Then I’ll ask you a little!”

Bell smiled and organized the glasses with the winter castle personnel.

I left the venue carrying Agnes. I’m glad the injection wasn’t severe though.

“hehehe.”

Suddenly, a loud laughter was heard. Startled, I turned my head slightly to see Agnes raising the corners of his mouth.

“Are you awake?”

“… … .”

No answer. Looks like an injection.

I turned my head again and tried to walk forward, but she hugged me from behind.

“… ?”

“Uh… The pillow is hard.”

The urge to let go came rushing in for a moment, but I could barely hold it in.

If it was a cartoon, it would be on top of me! The phrase must have been

“… ttt.”

He sighed and walked down the hallway again. There is not much left until now. Throw it on the bed and go back.

cut profit.

The voice you hear when you open the door.

“Deron… Philasia.”

stopped for a moment. I really thought Agnes was calling me, not an injection.

tired. give it a quick look… .

“Someone died… . Even dozens or hundreds… .”

Sobbing.

A cry was heard. Agnes’ tears fell on my clothes. I shut my mouth and carefully laid her down on the bed.

The sadness from her eyes ran down her skin. made the duvet wet. Sorrow was contagious.

people die She realized the weight of that sentence.

So it would be sad for those who died. I don’t know if my tender heart can stand it.

I muttered as I looked down at her.

“A lot of them died. I don’t know how many will die in the future. All the dead will be on the dead list. It’s sad, but you can get over it. Because they don’t even have a face-to-face relationship.”

my personal wish.

“I hope you are not on that list. Agnes Bayern. But if your name is on that list.”

I paused for a moment.

When I think of her death, I feel somewhat depressed. The emotions that had disappeared while being ruled by the Magi returned.

I continued speaking calmly, but with a slightly sad expression on my face.

“If that happens, I don’t think it will be easy to get over it.”

Agnes can’t hear, but he can’t hear what he says.

I let out a wish that could not be continued and I left the room.
