Chapter 199 – Iscariot’s Descendents 1 (1/2)
The Marquis Ruben’s Long Sword was given to the Count of Erutonia, Lee Jaesung while Cardion, the Sword of the Storm, was given to Tinia…
“Oh, is this a wedding present? Thank you very much! I have to show off to Leifina later!”
By now, Woohyuk’s initial plan and operation to get rid of her became a lost cause.
He organized his party and headed back to the Carlheinz Mountains.
This time, they were headed for the Holy Apheria Empire.
The first task was to eliminate Rosenkreuz and to expunge his influence and work on Rosa Etherna.
“Is it okay to go openly like this? The Informant’s Disclosure will reveal our location in real time,” Helena mentioned with concern.
“Don’t worry. I asked Aris to resolve the matter,” Woohyuk replied.
Aris used high-tech equipment from Neustein Castle to modify the information being sent through the Informant’s Disclosure. This meant that he could remotely manipulate Woohyuk’s location information.
Thanks to this, Woohyuk had been marked as being under King Dane’s command.
“You really pulled a big one over them. It’s just like you.”
“…What do you mean it’s just like me?”
“You made me put myself in a terrible situation by tempting me with a ride on your Pegasus. Now, I’ll never believe what you say.”
“Did I lie? I said that I’d give you a ride. I didn’t say that there wasn’t a cost to that ride, right?”
“You’re evil! No wonder you’re the human closest to the Demon King’s throne.”
Woohyuk and Helena began to quarrel.
Bruhilt, who saw their appearance, opened his mouth to give them a warning.
“It’s not good to keep arguing in a situation like this. No matter how close you two are.”
“What makes you think I’m close to that stupid man, Bruhilt?” Helena snapped back.
“Zeke told me. You two were lying in bed together and got caught by Rafina.”
“… Are you trying to disrespect me, Zeke?” she asked while turning to Zeke.
“No. I happened to mention that incident in passing when informing Bruhilt of Tinia’s competitors,” Zeke answered, revealing once again his black, evil heart.
While Woohyuk was lost for words, Roan, who had been silent, opened his mouth.
“Master, you’ve already tasted that loud girl once. I thought it was weird how well you moved your hands during the Dragon Tribe Trials…”
Bam!
Zeke’s fist fiercely struck Roan’s midsection.
“Stop your bullshit. Shouldn’t you have figured something out after getting beat up all the time?” stated Zeke.
“Ahhhhhhhhh! Roan didn’t do anything wrong! If you keep hitting me, I’ll turn evil!” Roan stammered back.
“You’re going through a phase of puberty, little boy. Also, did you say I was a noisy girl earlier?” asked Helena.
As they continued on, Woohyuk’s party became increasingly noisier and rowdier.
Just when Roan and Helena’s argument was in full swing,
“Haha! Such pleasant friends and travelers. It seems the Eeth Continent has become more interesting and fun since I last came.”
A silver-haired little boy appeared at the top of the mountain range. He was a Silver Dragon polymorphed as a human.
It seemed that he came down from Sky Island to explore the world.
“Aren’t there humans in your dimension? You must have met a lot before, right?”
“Ah… well, all of them were summoned here. Only monsters and demons remain back on the island.”
His words meant that monsters and demons were not the Creator’s creations.
Woohyuk nodded and asked the Silver Dragon in human form to accompany him.
“Follow me. Then you won’t be bored.”
“Ah, you don’t mind? Well, I can’t help you with your mission due to my circumstances, but I’ll cheer from the side.”
The Silver Dragon’s name was Altair.
As their conversation concluded, Altair clung to Helena.
“My lady, the last time you took a sexy pose on the island, it was awesome. Do you have any male friends?”
“Get out of my sight. I’m busy.”
Helena turned her back on Altair as if she considered him insignificant.
Woohyuk called Altair and whispered into his ear.
“That Saintess likes sweets. She’s like a little child. She also likes white horses with wings.”
“… I can hear everything that you’re saying.”
Helena, thinking she was being teased, inflated her cheeks with air.
Subsequently, after several more arguments, Woohyuk turned the topic back to the original subject.
“Anyway, Hevnia’s trial showed a scene from the Holy Aperia Empire. The empire’s lands were already burned and desolate. Only rubble remained, but it was clearly Aperia lands since there were many symbols that related to the empire.”
He presumed that the actual location of Hevnia’s trial scene was in the northwestern part of the Empire.
It was because there were many statues of the Empire’s former emperors there.
Helena, who heard Woohyuk’s reasoning, opened her mouth.
“That works out well. Etheria Rodinus and her party members are there. They’re there because the northwestern region is where the Holy Empire’s influence is relatively weak.”
“Isn’t there anything else in the Prophecy regarding the first sign? Don’t even think about hiding that information from me,” he quickly replied back.
“I’ve told you everything. Rest assured, I’ve provided all the information I know whenever you’ve asked.”
The fallen angel, Kuruela, knew that Helena had the Holy Grail, so she had tried to get rid of Etheria Rodinus but was eventually stopped by Woohyuk.
That was all of what was written in Getia’s Prophecy.
There was no mention of what process Woohyuk went through to seal Kuruela.
Woohyuk nodded at Helena’s explanation.
“I’ll trust what you’re saying. Anyway, I hope Rosenkreuz doesn’t bother us by showing up in the middle of everything.”
“That crazy Empress as well. Knowing how prideful she is, she may just grab the Holy Ertia and start attacking Kuruela.”
“… Don’t worry about her. She’s under my control. She probably won’t step a foot outside of the Imperial Palace until this event is over.”
Woohyuk had secretly conversed with Princess Eleonora through a communication-type artifact.
Recalling this fact, Zeke asked Woohyuk with a curious expression whether there were any updates from the Princess.
“What is the current situation of the Holy Apheria Empire? According to rumors, there was a riot recently…”
