Chapter Eleven(1/4)
() The Black Knight has white skin like pottery and dark hair and eyes. The pupils in the slender sockets are looking straight at Nice.
His eyes were both cunning and innocence.
"I heard His Majesty Beirut tell him the origin of it." The Black Knight replied.
"Is that so? So you've heard it?" Ness sighed softly. "This sword carries all the sadness of people. It should have been something sealed in that maze..."
"It's the deepest maze." Ness nodded when he heard what the Black Knight said.
The "The Most Essential Maze" is a ruin of an ancient kingdom located in the deep mountains of Moss.
This huge maze, which is more than a dozen underground layers, was built by a group of magicians who are good at summoning magic to call on demons living in another world during the ancient kingdom period when magic civilization was extremely prosperous.
The purpose is to use the wisdom and power possessed by demons.
After the ancient kingdoms were destroyed and the magicians who summoned them were lost, the demons were sealed at the bottom of the maze and could never return to their original world.
More than 40 years ago, Moses was in the Warring States Period when all countries were numerous. Since all countries were easy to defend but difficult to attack, the war had been going on for hundreds of years.
In order to unify the entire place of Moses, the king of a certain country thought of using the power of the demon god.
But an ordinary person cannot have the power to dominate the demon god like the magicians in ancient kingdoms.
After liberating the seals of the demon gods, this stupid king became the first victim because he could not control them.
In this way, the demons and their families were liberated from the bottom of the maze.
The demons with terrifying powers brought death and destruction to Rhodes Island.
However, at that time, the people of Rhodes broke the boundaries of the country and fought hard against demons. Races such as demons and dwarves also worked together with humans to regard the races in the other world as common enemies.
The war between the residents of Rhodes Island and the demon gods lasted for three years.
However, the number of demons did not seem to have decreased, and the residents of Rhodes Island were almost forced into a desperate situation.
If the demons use their own strength to open the door to another world and successfully call their companions from their world, then not only Rhodes Island, but the whole world will be dominated by the demons.
Some people also say that this experiment has actually been almost successful.
But at the last moment, the residents of Rhodes Island finally defeated the demons and drove them back to their last stronghold, "The Deepest Labyrinth".
Since it was a maze, it was impossible to lead the army to directly attack, so a hundred brave men were selected and entered the maze to fight the final battle.
These brave men fulfilled their mission.
However, when the King of Demons was defeated and sealed it again, only six brave men were left. These six survivors were praised as six heroes by epics, and their names will be passed down in the world forever.
Ness, the Supreme Priest of Mafa, is one of them.
In addition, there are Beirut, the emperor of Mamo, the hero of Wallis, Frebe, the patriarch of the southern dwarf tribe who was annihilated by the demon, Wot of Mos's great sage, and an unknown magic warrior.
"Your great sword was originally the thing of the King of Demons. When he was deeply in love with Beirut, when he was about to be defeated by the King of Demons, the female priest Falis, who died for him, was also killed by this sword."
"Sir, I'm sorry, I'm not here to listen to history. I have something to ask you, and I hope you can answer me honestly."
"I won't lie, but there are some things I can't tell you."
When the Black Knight heard this, his eyes became harsh.
"Okay. What I want to ask you is, you should know the treasures that Ice Dragon Bramd has?"
"Bramd's treasure... knows it's know, but why do you ask this?"
"To put it bluntly, I hope to ask you for these treasures, but I'm just short of money." As he said this, he showed a different smile.
"Why do you ask me if you want Bramd's treasure? If you want Bramd, please give it to you?"
"Please stop talking nonsense with your eyes open! Bramd has no treasures anymore. Didn't you help it lift the curse and take away all the treasures of the dragon?"
The Black Knight said so viciously.
"I heard you say that... have you seen Bramd?"
"That beast welcomed us with great pomp. But that ice dragon must regret this matter on the road to the underworld."
"Didn't it... why did you kill it!"
Nice suddenly stood up and stared at him.
"It also took away three of my companions, and these people are among the best."
"Why are you so cruel?! It is still dormant now, and I really didn't expect a knight to sneak attack it!"
"Do you think I like fighting it? It's the one who provokes the battle, priest, do you even prohibit us from taking self-defense actions?"
The Black Knight strengthened his tone and glared at Nice.
And Nice didn't move.
"To me, this dragon is my good friend. In Mafa's teachings, we will never be told not to be sad about the death of our friends. Besides, I know why the clever one attacks you must be because it thinks you are thieves who are coming to steal treasures, so I don't think you are forced to take action."
"Yes, we do want Bramd's treasure, and we must get it. But we didn't want to use stealing and robbery at the beginning. If we had to pay for it, we would be willing to pay..."
"I'm sorry, I don't need that kind of cheesy thing. I can support myself by relying on the forest and the earth..." Nice said and sat back on her original position. "It's true that Bramd has transferred its treasure to me, but they have almost all given it to the masters of the Dwarves to renovate the temple. Now I have only a little left on my hand."
"I don't want anything that can be exchanged for money. I only want something called the "Scepter of Domination."
"Scepter of Domination?" Ness spent a long time recalling the name, and when she remembered it, she couldn't help but feel a cold sweat. "I've heard of the name of this treasure, but what are you going to do with it?"
"You should be able to imagine it by listening to the name..." At this point, the corner of the Black Knight's mouth slightly raised.
"It seems that I have said too much. I didn't want to say so much, you are really good at talking. Let me ask you again if there is a scepter of dominance in the treasures that Bramd transferred to you for the last time?"
"The secret treasure it transferred to me is called the "Mirror of Truth". I believe that you who are looking for the scepter of dominance should know what this is? Moreover, this treasure is no longer here. If you don't believe it, you can check our warehouse, which is only the crops stored last autumn. Finally, I want to give you a piece of advice. Only stupid people will lose themselves because of magical treasures. You have strong willpower, and it seems that you are also a smart person. If you can believe in yourself, you will definitely overcome all difficulties. I hope you can cherish yourself."
"You really praise people. You can even learn so much about the first time you meet someone."
"If a person lives for a long time, he will be more clear after all."
A sarcastic smile appeared on the Black Knight's face.
"What should a person do if he bears a fate that he cannot bear but has to bear it?"
"If it were me, I would pray to the gods."
Nice understood the meaning of the words and said so.
"Thank you for your advice," the Black Knight smiled generously and stood up.
"Please forgive me for being rude."
"I don't seem to ask your daimyo yet. Would you like to tell me?"
"My name is Ashuram, and I am a member of His Majesty Beirut's personal guard."
The black knight who claimed to be Ashuram gave a salute as he entered the door and turned around and left.
Nice watched him leave like that.
After whispering a few words to his companions outside the door, Ashuram quickly moved away from Nice's room.
Hearing the footsteps of leaving, Nice sighed softly.
"The fate of a person is incredible. I didn't expect that someone would repeat the mistakes of Beirut. If people with heroic qualifications are destined to fight each other, who will stand in front of him in the future..."
Nice moved her gaze out the window and looked at the White Dragon Mountains standing outside. Looking at these steep mountains, Nice remembered the mountains of Mos, her former companions, and the ris who fought with the demons.
"Wot, maybe your idea is right... If you don't interfere with others living alone, there will be no disputes. As long as people are together, there will be disputes, but people will definitely not live alone, so is it destined that the fate of disputes cannot be avoided between people..."
Nice really wanted to ask the magician, known as the Great Sage of Morse, to hear what answer he would have. The life and death friend who was chosen by fate actually bet on his own destiny and fought with each other. Nice's heart couldn't help but feel a sense of sorrow.
She likes Beirut and Farne very much, and also likes the dwarf king Frebe who has an iron will, and the strange magician Wot.
Another magic warrior is also an irreplaceable companion to Nice.
Recently, Nice learned that the magic warrior was called Kara. His true face was the witch of the ancient kingdom who sealed his soul in the headdress. Nice also knew that it was she who dominated her daughter Lelia and secretly controlled everything in the heroic war.
Nice sighed again and turned around to look at the room where the Black Knight was still in.
"Mr. Nice..."
At this time, the door opened and a female priest walked in. She was the priest who had just put the Black Knight and the others in at the entrance of the dormitory.
She saw the Black Knight and the others coming out, worried about what they had done to Nice before she came to see it.
"You're just right here," Nice waved her hand and called her over. "Can you please go to Saxony to find Lelia? Ask her to take the time to come here and bring her husband and son together."
"I don't mind...what is there anything wrong with asking them to come?"
"I hope to tell Lelia directly after she comes."
The priest nodded respectfully and left the room.
"How the gears of fate will turn depends on their performance." Looking at the priest's departure's back, Nice said this. But the sky has not come yet.
There is an island called Rhodes.
It is a border island located south of the Yarelast continent.
It has been five years since the war that shocked the entire Rhodes Island.
But war is still burning everywhere, and a peaceful life has happened a long time ago.
The wars in the various principalities of Mos became increasingly fierce. The prefects of each principality became kings one after another, constantly trying to gain hegemony through war. Now this place has almost been restored to the Warring States Period before the founding of Mos.
To be continued...
