Chapter 432

#432. there is a way

* * *

“Hmm.”

The girl who drank the decoction.

Yekathrice put down the bowl.

Then, he asked the silver-haired maid holding the tray next to him.

“The sealing was successful, right?”

“yes.”

“That’s because Ainsha just brought the legendary great witch.”

“99% is thanks to the princess.”

“Originally, what’s important is the 1% finish, isn’t it?”

“….”

“The hardships are all the same, and the best side is taken away.”

As the Seven Dragons are the number one plundering clan, they lose face.

Laugh for a while.

Yekathrice asked again.

“What are our bad brother and cute little sister doing now?”

“You are in a meeting.”

“okay? where?”

“Would you like to see…?”

“I don’t know what the two younger siblings are doing in a dark place, but I can’t help but watch them, right?”

There are other people in that conference room.

Brothers and sisters usually don’t do anything even in a locked room.

Yekathrice needs absolute stability right now, etc.

Kana did not point out.

I just opened my mouth coldly.

“Can I tell you a word, princess?”

“Ah, are you going to confess to me? I’m sorry Kana. I already have an older brother I have a crush on.”

“You were too reckless.”

“It’s a serious answer, but it’s sad to ignore it like that?”

As if he’s sorry he didn’t take the joke.

Looking at Yekathrice grumbling, Kana coldly continued.

“Fighting against the Demon God wasn’t enough, so he harmed himself to become a dragon. What were you thinking if it went wrong?”

“I knew it would work out somehow. Anyway, that’s how it ended up, right?”

“There’s a 70% chance that this time it was just luck, and in reality the princess was in danger.”

I don’t know if it’s a fair amount of gods or monarchs.

The Demon God is the existence that caused even Limon to wander between death and death, and even the Blue Dragon Princess of the time.

Originally, it was the right opponent to avoid confrontation itself.

Whether the citizens of Moscow are exterminated.

That’s what ruins Russia.

Even so, looking at the princess who risked her own life and made an absurd gamble, Kana spoke sharply.

“Remember that the princess’s life is not alone and we have the ‘right’ to protect you.”

Whether it treats the clan like dogs.

Killing or harassing as a prank.

If it is the will of the princess, they will gladly follow.

However, it is unacceptable for a princess who has not yet laid eggs to put herself in danger.

Because the princess’s only duty was to safely inherit the true blood until the day the seven dragons resurrected.

And…

“Above all, keep in mind.”

“That the princess promised to destroy me rather than abandon me.”

“If the princess forgets that promise and goes out on her own again…”

With a cold face as always.

But with the most terrifying eyes.

Looking straight at Yekathrice.

Kana finished her speech.

“You’ll keep that promise, even if you’re forced to.”

“…”

“Then, rest in peace.”

After bowing with utmost respect and greetings.

For a moment, I waited for the silver-haired maid to walk out the door carrying a tray full of empty dishes.

Yekathrice laughed.

“Anyway, my kids aren’t crazy, they’re the problem.”

If I do this wrong, I don’t know if I’ll be tied up and locked up.

After mumbling happily.

Yekathrice got up from her seat and slipped out of the room… no, to be precise, the super-large camper she was in.

And containers and tents lined up everywhere.

No, to be precise, he muttered as he watched the numerous people busily moving among them.

“No matter how ragtag they may be, they march all the way to Moscow without the knowledge of the new revolutionary army or the revolutionary government. After all, my army is competent.”

It was.

They are none other than Russians.

From the beginning of the revolution until now, they have only been running away.

They, who had brought despair to the revolutionary government by not showing nose-bleeding all along, were even carrying out camp construction in the suburbs of Moscow before they knew it.

That’s an army of tens of thousands of people.

What would have happened if Sergei hadn’t done the crazy thing of resurrecting the demon.

It was a very curious thing.

Of course, if the Demon God hadn’t been summoned, the Russian army wouldn’t have come this far in the first place.

Giggling at that fact, Yekathrice moved lightly.

“oh! I finally found it!”

Do-do-do too!

and after a while

Yekathrice, who found Limon in the largest barracks in the center of the camp, immediately clung to his back.

“Isn’t my brother too heartless? If my cute little sister collapses in pain, I have to take care of her by her side.”

“… Aside from being a cute little sister and not a younger sister like Wen-su, aren’t you forgetting that we are not real siblings?”

“You’re saying you’re going to throw away your sister as soon as it’s done? After all, oppa is a bad guy too.”

Even as he frowned at the conversation that made his head hurt the more he heard it, Limon did not shake Yekathrice.

I just asked casually.

“Are you okay?”

“I’m fine because my brother worried about me!”

“This is a serious question, so please answer seriously.”

“Eh, to be honest, half and half? It’s not perfectly fine, but it’s okay compared to what I expected.”

When Limon asked with a straight face, Catherine also answered honestly.

Still, Yonghwa is dangerous.

In particular, there was a high possibility that his lifespan would be shortened or that he would remain permanently disabled as long as he was forcibly transformed through self-injury without the Chilryongdae.

Even Maia’s life could be in danger.

There was a reason why Kana, who had been obediently following through on anything, dared to threaten.

In that respect, her condition was surprisingly light.

To the extent that if you take proper care, you can regain your health without any aftereffects.

“It’s amazing. Wasn’t I a bit too much to be honest to say that it was okay because Yonghwa’s time was short?”

“….”

“But after going through too much, it feels like something really good happened. Can you guess what it is?”

“…well.”

“okay? I’m sorry.”

Somehow, I feel like there was something I had to receive, but I can’t remember, so it’s a waste.

A moment to grumble alone.

Yekathrice asked suddenly.

“Rather than that, how is your brother? I’ve even heard that it’s not good.”

“It’s pretty serious.”

“Is that enough?”

“okay.”

Limon frowned.

While the Demon God is sealed, he evacuates the citizens of Moscow and destroys it.

If you can do that, it will be an ideal result.

The problem was that the evacuation of citizens was not carried out smoothly.

“Currently, all the citizens of Moscow are unconscious due to being exposed to the demon’s curse. You can’t evacuate if you try to evacuate on your own.”

“I know that too, but then we can rescue instead of evacuate, right?”

“It’s a problem because it doesn’t work. Even if the Demon God is sealed, the energy he sowed is still there.”

Currently, Moscow is covered by the demon’s curse.

Ordinary people fainted just by entering, and even tolerable masters and high-level players became unconscious after working for a long time.

It was difficult to mobilize even vehicles, let alone drones, because even machines malfunctioned at times.

“Right now, the entire Silver Dragon family is mobilized to carry out the rescue operation, but at this rate, we won’t be able to make it in time until the seal is lifted.”

“What is the rough estimate of rescue?”

“If you’re lucky, maybe 10%.”

“Wow, that sure is serious.”

Contrary to her admiration, Yekathrice did not smile.

The fact that only 10% can be saved means that the remaining tens of millions cannot be reached in time.

No matter how much the rescue operation is conducted centering on the downtown area, if Limon cuts the Demon God, there will be at least hundreds of thousands of victims.

“Can’t the seal be further strengthened? Now that I have the Gwangryongdae, I think I can try harder at least once if I push myself a little.”

“I’m sorry, but that’s impossible.”

It wasn’t Limon who answered Yekathrice’s proposal, but Sir, who was drinking tea on the other side.

As the person who used the magic barrier to prevent and supplement her seal from being broken, Shire calmly continued.

“I don’t know about you, but I don’t have any money left to use for sealing anymore.”

“In return, there are a lot of things that Ainsha robbed in Moscow, right? If you use it…”

“I’ve already written it.”

“huh?”

“It means that the white child used all the magical treasures of mysterious materials collected not only in Moscow but all over Russia to seal the demon.”

“…All that much?”

“Isn’t it possible that the great magic that seals the Demon God can be done at an insignificant price?”

If it was easy to seal the demon in the first place, it would not have been possible to stop the witches of the 27th line of magic from London even if they had a showdown.

Even this seal was possible because Yekathrice had already frozen time and it was Sir who used the magic.

Even if one element was missing, the seal would have failed no matter how many times the treasure was poured out.

Seeing the legendary archwitch talking languidly, Catherine narrowed her eyes.

“After all, sealing is only a temporary measure, and we have to do something before the grace period ends, right?”

“okay.”

“Hmm, it’s difficult.”

Yekathrice scratched her head.

This is because even as the most recognized genius of the Seven Dragons, she could not see a way to resolve this situation.

“it’s okay. There is a way.”

The white-haired girl looked at Yekathrice hanging on Limon’s back with an expressionless face.

That’s why she was dubious about Ainsha’s words.

“Is there a way?”

“That’s right. After the Holy Alliance Demon War, I studied how to prevent the demon from resurrecting.”

“You mean those interested people did such a wonderful thing?”

“Of course. It is the gods who have the most difficulty when reviving demons. If you don’t, you’re an idiot.”

God is a being whose strength is faith.

That is why he regards all other gods as rivals.

In the past, in the Silver Age, religious wars were fierce because of the religious competition.

In that respect, despite having a power that surpasses even the great power, the demon god who can never be included in the Holy League is the natural enemy of all gods.

It was only natural that the Divine Alliance, the largest magic organization in the present age, studied demons.

“Ainsha, from what you’re saying, it seems that those interested people have come up with a pretty plausible way?”

“That’s right. I cannot explain in detail. Anyway, if you use it, you can stop the demon without taking damage.”

“Hmm?”

Yekathrice calmly agreed.

A way to stop demons means a way to stop other gods as well.

If it was a secret only for the gods, I could understand why even Ainshara, the priest of the Holy League, couldn’t say it carelessly.

One thing you don’t know.

“But why aren’t you using that method?”

If there is a solution, please use it.

Why are you wasting your time discussing it here?

In response to her question that hit her head, Limon remained silent with a furrowed brow, and Sir also raised a teacup without saying a word.

So, it was Ainsha who answered that question.

“Two conditions are necessary to use this method.”

“What?”

“For now, the demon must be completely resurrected.”

“…really?”

“That’s right. It is still cocooned. You can use that method only when you release the cocoon and achieve complete divinity.”

“That is awesome.”

Why is Limon only crossing his arms?

Yekathrice could understand perfectly.

Of course, he made himself suffer even though he was not completely resurrected.

An existence that can make millions of victims just by killing it is a demon.

Even if there was a solution, the risk was too great to allow such a demon to be resurrected perfectly.

It’s good if Ainsha’s method works.

But what if it fails?

At least, the whole of Moscow will be blown away, and in the worst case, a catastrophe may occur in which half of the Russian Khanate is stained with disaster.

It was not an easy choice even for Yekathrice.

“That’s better. The real headache is the second condition.”

“What are the conditions?”

That’s why Ekatriche made an interesting expression at Limon’s words.

Just hearing that the demon had to be resurrected

made me wonder at this point what the more troublesome condition was than the shocking thing.

But the moment I heard the second condition.

Catherine lost her smile.

“I need to learn the celestial foresight.”

“…”

Even when I was strangled by Limon.

Even when you put a knife through your heart.

Erase even the mischievous smile I never forgot.

Looking at Ainsha with a cold face she had never shown before, Ekatriche spoke in a sharp voice.

“Ainsha, are you crazy?”
