172 Lesson 42: The Legend of the Desert (1/2)

There is little I know about the Golden Empire (Imperium).

When I visited Berca before, I heard rumors that in the middle of the desert there exists a golden empire protected by the junction. Another rumor is that an ideal home full of water, greenery and magic exists beyond the desert, and perhaps this should also be included in the information on the Golden Empire (Imperium).

Initially I thought it was a legend that was common in the demonic realm, so I wasn't interested.

But now that we know it's a mystery that Belka's premier adventurer pursued throughout his life, interest in the legend of this desert is growing without a response (no).

Easier said, I was excited. Though there is a word ”wild” on it, it is still the end of the adventurer. The mystery is a legend. I have an interest in the crowd.

It would be an imprudent interest to try to make Katya desperately looking for the whereabouts of 'Silver Star'. I knew it, so it's prudent to put it on my face. However, it is possible that the information could be more helpful in the search for the 'Silver Star' than Alou, the leader, was in search of the Golden Empire (Imperium).

So while I was on a test flight in the Catalan Desert, I asked the scumbags to follow your materials. By the way, this is also combined with studying the letter of the suzume.

I myself heard from Cardinal Cyrara.

As a result, what has emerged is the appearance of a giant empire that existed in the Old Age - an even older (fuzzy) era than three hundred years ago, when humans and ghosts fought.

The golden empire (Imperium), he said, was a superpower that gathered wealth from all over the world in the old days, and its capital was covered with gold and silver, and the lights never went out even at night.

The prosperity of the empire lasted a thousand years, and people were delayed by gastronomy and pleasure. Morality and ethics, on the other hand, were turned away, and people were enthusiastic about it with many enjoyable celebrations.

God, who mourned the likelihood that the country, and men, would be overshadowed by retirement (yes) and abolition (yes), asked for self-reflection many times, but the voice of God would not reach those who were delayed (fluttered) by evil, and as a result, the Golden Empire (Imperium) would perish by the rain of light pouring out of heaven. The building collapsed by starfire, the inhabitants were burned by sulphur and bored (too). Yep, the land ended up barren with no grass for a thousand years......

- And well, this was the legend of the newly known Golden Empire (Imperium). Needless to say, the last barren land is about the Catalan Desert.

Old age material has been largely lost in the war against ghosts three hundred years ago, and there is no way to see if this legend is based on facts.

Well, speaking of my senses, it's a con artist or a dreamer who brings up stories from the old days.

It was Cardinal Cyrara who taught me this legend, but I felt the smell of a temple sermon around the gods of the last one, and this was one of the reasons I judged it to be Yotai. I don't know if the god who destroyed the Golden Empire (Imperium) is the God of War, the God of Law, or the Mother Earth, but if he has the power to turn a country into a desert, I want him to break the gates.

Of course I didn't say that face to face. I don't think I even gave it a look. But that should be the chief head of the Divinity of Law in Berca, the Cardinal seemed to have given an accurate insight into my heart.

”I can't believe it,” he said.

”... to be honest, yes”

I honestly admit I don't think I can help but deceive you. Exactly this would be one of reprimands, and as he stood up, the Cardinal continued his words, not smiling bitterly.

”I can't help but think so. But Alou believed in this legend. At least it's not bullshit at all. It's not just Alou, it's Alou's father - and that's what I believe.”

”I asked about Lord Alou, but also his father? Besides, I don't know.”

”I once challenged myself to the desert as an adventurer. with Alou's father.”

The Cardinal narrowed his eyes so that he could think in the past.

And say.

”There are indeed traces of old times in the Catalan Desert. And there's something more.”

”Is there anything more?”

”Mm-hmm. It's hard to realize that this isn't someone who actually stepped into the desert... but as you step into the back of the desert, you feel it. There's definitely something here, something that people don't know about.”

The higher the adventurer, the more he is imprisoned by his magnetism. That's what the Cardinal said.

Alou's father was typical of it and his family went on to challenge the desert in the opposite direction. At last, he knew the Cardinal and the Cardinal and continued his adventure, and finally became a person who would not return.

Hmm, and I put my arms together inside.

I guess one of the reasons White Knight Alou focused on the Catalan Desert was the presence of my father. Besides, I thought about the meaning of the Cardinal's words.

I did feel something as I stepped into the back of the desert - I'll try to apply that word to my experience.

Then a forest of Titis floated up behind his brain. To be precise, the dragon hole that was in the deepest part of Titis came up.

At that time, I felt there was something here as I followed Hydra into the deepest depths. Maybe the Cardinal felt something similar.

If there is a dragon hole in the Catalan desert, it is quite interesting to note that the king of beasts (Behemoth) may also be a fantastic species. However, there was a lot of magic (mana) coming out of Titis' dragon hole, creating a terribly dense forest. Meanwhile, this one has a desert that doesn't grow a grass.

What this difference was brought about by - I thought that far, then waved it small and cut off my thoughts.

You shouldn't, laying assumptions on assumptions and drawing conclusions doesn't do a lot. Tighten the compass of the mind that was about to run ahead.

If there's really a dragon hole in the back of the desert, you can feel something. It shouldn't have been too late to make an inference.

Initially, our base in Berca was a former lodging house.
