chapter 19
2. Rachel Cardia – (13)
***
Slowly, a group of blue lights gradually spread around the Ashera Glade.
A wave of blue that is calm but so pale as if permeating the surroundings slowly expands its scope.
And the blue wave gradually expanded its area.
In an instant, she overcame not only Ashera but also the knights who were on guard in all directions around her, and the wave began to spread in all directions.
Saaa.
A truly gigantic wave.
Her knights, who followed her, looked at Ashera involuntarily and everyone couldn’t help but feel it.
Her huge presence.
Ashera expressing her mana Her figure seemed to represent her own presence.
A huge wave of mana that can only be felt by those who have reached a certain level.
And the wave of mana that spread like that soon reached the mercenaries who reached the heights that existed throughout the city of Glia, as well as other talented people.
*
Glia city mercenary guild combination.
Saaa.
“…Crazy.”
Hargan, who was positioned inside as the manager of the Mercenary Guild Guild in Glia City, hurriedly looked around at the sudden feeling of a huge flow of mana.
Because it was well past evening, the inside of the Guild Guild was not as lively as it was during the day. There were not too many people staying indoors, but among them, there were a few who had hardened expressions, as if they felt the mana like he did.
“What is it, Salien, why are you suddenly hardening your expression?”
“No… I just felt something strange all of a sudden.”
“Kalzen. Didn’t you feel something strange too? Suddenly, it seems to cover the entire body…….”
“No, I didn’t feel anything?”
Even among the insignificant mercenaries, as if they felt something, they could be seen talking to each other.
However, among them, the guys at the level of really doing a little bit were swallowing their words with tension, just like himself.
The presence felt in it is too much to feel as just waves of mana surrounding the city…. It was too big.
It was so huge that even he couldn’t act as if nothing had happened.
Took.
Hargan suddenly turned his head at the feeling of being touched, and soon he saw a sharp-looking man carrying a huge bow.
She had a lot of money, but she was an A-class mercenary, Gallia, who dared to make dinner every time within the guild union.
“Hargan, could this be a signal?”
“…Don’t be crazy. Gaul.”
‘Signal?’
That was nonsense.
Spreading such a huge amount of mana throughout the city was a signal.
Even if you’re pretty confident in your mana, how can you create this huge wave of mana that seems to spread throughout the city… , He couldn’t even imagine how much mana that individual possessed.
“But doesn’t this gigantic mana try to tell everyone in the city about its existence? On top of that, there is a huge presence that dwells in mana. I thought it was a sign of something.”
Harzan let out a sigh for no reason at the sight of Gallia speaking with a natural smile.
I wondered how comfortable it would be if I could think like that idiot myself.
“You bastard. All the people in the city, even the B-class bastards, the placenta wouldn’t even feel that this was a wave of mana caused by one person. This is not simply spreading mana.”
What about the man called Gaul despite Harjan talking harshly? I was just looking at it with a smile on my face.
“Yes? Wasn’t it simply spreading mana?”
“Little cubs will not even know how to use the mana contained in it.”
“I… Isn’t it below the standard though?”
Harjan looked at Galia, who had a sad expression on her face as if she was offended, then sighed and continued her words.
“If mana was spread simply, all B-ranks would have felt it, and even C-ranks who were sensitive to mana would have felt it. That mana that continues to create waves even now is not simply spreading mana.”
“Then… She only hid those of a certain level to feel her own mana. Is that what you mean?”
“Yeah, it’s amazing how you show your presence in that wave of mana. What the hell is the intention of expressing mana like that, I really don’t know.”
“Well, but even with that much, aren’t there many people who will feel this wave? This is not another city, this is Glia.”
That’s why Harjan was even more suspicious of mana waves.
What is the meaning of expressing one’s presence as if expressing that wave of mana?
I couldn’t figure out the intention.
It was not an ordinary city, it was a city located at the forefront of the north and on the border of the Kalzea Empire.
The demons continuously pouring down from the unexplored mountain range in the north were also demons, but it also meant a lot to protect the borders of the empire, so there were far more knights, families, and mercenaries than other cities.
It wasn’t called the city of mercenaries for nothing.
Saaa.
Once again, I felt a huge wave of mana.
However, strangely enough, his presence had clearly faded.
“You know. Do you know what I said then?”
“No, I couldn’t swing my sword like that there!”
“Tomorrow, I’ll be a B grade too, right?”
In the guild, it seemed as if the series of confusion that had just happened hadn’t happened. They were full of their own voices.
After that, as the huge wave of mana continued, it spread very slowly and stealthily, and the presence within it continued to decrease.
At first, even those who felt a little strange just nodded their heads wondering if they were mistaken. I didn’t seem to be able to feel the waves that I felt afterwards.
After a while, Harjan read the one intention contained in it.
ㅡIt is discriminating people who are above a certain level.
‘… What were you thinking?’
It was to the point where it was difficult for even him to properly feel the wave of mana that continued to resonate.
Aside from that, Harjan himself didn’t know any more.
And Harjan’s eyes, looking at the mana permeating their bodies, were only coldly examining the situation.
It was such a subtle pale blue light that at first she didn’t even notice herself.
A pale blue color that is hard to notice unless you keep looking closely.
“Mr. Harzan… Are we okay with this?”
She said while moving her body as if Gallia was uneasy, but she herself couldn’t figure out what the mana contained in the blue light was trying to do.
As if permeating the surface of countless people, very fine blue mana settles in.
The wave of mana continued to progress, and the repeated wave of mana began to wrap people’s bodies in a really fine way.
It was a really faint wave that seemed to pass through everything.
The door to the Guild Guild was obviously closed, but the people inside were definitely covered in that pale blue mana.
“It doesn’t seem to do any harm… ….”
Harzan couldn’t get rid of the uncomfortable look on his face.
At first, she tried to reject the mana seeping into her body, as if she was using mana herself to resist it.
However, there was no rejection.
Rather, when that blue mana touched her whole body, she felt as if she was revitalizing herself, albeit very subtly.
Saaa.
Har Zahn soon felt the surge of her mana again.
The existence and the presence of mana became more and more obscure.
And soon after, she became unable to feel the waves of mana, not even Harzan.
***
The wave of mana, which continued to spread enormously as if it encompassed the entire city of Glia, finally stopped its flow.
“…… I found it.”
Ashera stopped her own mana, which she expressed as if she continued to spread wide, her eyes shining.
The mana that filled her whole body was not even half left. As the water that filled the lake shows the bottom. Most of her own mana, which existed like her great lake, was gone.
The bottomless lake soon began to fill up again.
But even so, it was hard to shake the feeling that something like someone had taken over her whole body, that sense of lethargy.
She felt that her head was spinning because she hadn’t used mana this much in recent years.
She tightens her grip on her sword and slowly catches her breath.
But those things didn’t matter to me anyway.
More than the exhaustion and dizziness that filled her whole body, she seemed to have finally caught her clue, and only felt her feelings of hope.
I finally found it.
An existence capable of knocking Ed down with just two strikes.
An existence that can deny her own mana.
The reason why the vassals couldn’t find the existence of the beast even though they continued to investigate the city for half a day.
It all started to make sense.
“… ….”
Asera catching her breath, she slowly lifted her head and looked at her knights who were nestled around her.
Awe.
Admiration.
Respect.
They were looking at her Asherah with emotions similar to hers.
And looking at the knights of her own family who gave her such a gaze, Ashera continued to win her heart.
To the knights of the Glaad family.
She had to tell them what she was not supposed to say.
She kept trying to hold her heart open and opened her mouth, but she didn’t let go easily.
Ashera hesitated for a moment, biting her own lips.
But within a moment, Ashera’s lips moved slowly.
“I found the beast that harmed Gore, Bledian, and Ed Glead.”
A top-notch knight that can be said to be the core force of the Glaad family.
Looking at each and every one of them as if they were following him slowly.
As if you were treating your precious people.
Asera continued to slowly capture the images of all of them.
No, actually, they were all precious knights of the Glaad family.
“That’s why all the drivers… I think you should be prepared.”
Even if it is exchanged with all of them.
Asera Glade.
She made up her mind by finding Ed.
