Grave Keeper of the Fallen Kingdom

After returning to Brilliant, Louise was busy digging into the incident in the desert.

To the extent that he couldn’t even think of the elixir of the Red Moon tribe that Ren had given him.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

“Louise, can I come in?”

“Come in.”

The messy desk and the dark circles that came down to the cheekbones.

Louise greeted Jane, running a hand through her tousled hair.

“What are you doing? sister.”

After checking the messy room, Jane frowned and went to the desk.

“You stop this right now.”

she said, pointing at the strewn papers with her fingers.

“If you’re here to say that, then go.”

“Louise! Do you have any idea how dangerous you are about to step into?”

“That’s why I’m moving. Who in the royal family would want to cut out the rotten parts of the country?”

At his determined tone, Jane glared at him.

“You don’t have to!”

“you’re right. I don’t have to. If there’s someone to replace me, I’ll keep my hands off it. But is there anyone like that?”

She gritted her teeth as if she had nothing to say.

No matter what she said, Louise probably wouldn’t listen to her.

Jane knew that, but she still couldn’t give up easily and came here.

“… … Do you know who is involved in this?”

It was for this reason that she came all this way.

Person involved in this case.

The royal family who usually thinks of Louise as a thorn in their eyes.

“His Highness the First Prince is involved!”

she cried, lowering her voice cautiously.

“I can’t hear you anyway.”

“okay? anyway! Why are you so carefree? Is it because you don’t know what your brother thinks of you?”

“I know.”

Jane stood up annoyedly, revealing her regret at the look in her eyes that still seemed to tell her not to bother her.

“Chit! it’s okay! Do you know that I bought Ren because I sent him this time?”

“Ah, that… … .”

This time, Louise had nothing to say and kept her mouth shut.

He owed his life to Ren twice.

Moreover, since he even received the elixir of the Red Moon tribe from him, it was as if he owed Jane the money that sent him.

“thank you. sister.”

“You know I’m asking for a thank you? How dangerous black magicians are.”

She slumped back on the sofa.

“Where are we strong? The power of the royal family is all scattered, but the warlocks are attacking, knowing how far they can penetrate… … .”

“sister. That’s why you have to step in.”

“Who doesn’t know that? It’s not the time yet! Three princes are checking each other for the next king’s seat. Let’s make another enemy in this situation? You might get bitten by a snake while digging grass!”

“I will give up my position as king if I am only afraid of snakes.”

“Louis!”

Louise stood up and turned around as if nothing more could be heard.

“sister. You know what?”

When the curtains covering the window were removed, a square moonlight streamed in through the window.

He looked at somewhere outside and opened his mouth.

“You can’t overcome it just by avoiding it.”

A man appeared in his mind.

“Even in places where there seems to be no way out, someone creates a way out and gets out. If he just runs away, he won’t even think of drilling a hole when he’s faced with a confined space.”

Chark!

Louise closed the curtain and looked at her with a hard face.

“I will defeat my older brothers and ascend to the throne.”

“… … what?”

Jane was surprised by his straightforward remarks and blurted out a counter-question without even realizing it.

I knew he was thinking of the king’s position, but I thought that Louise’s prudent personality wouldn’t say it carelessly.

“To do that, I need your sister’s help. Please help.”

Louise knelt on the floor and sat down.

Jane, taken aback by his appearance, tried to get him up, but Louise was unmoved.

“Okay, wake up! Am I rooting for you or who?”

“thank you. sister.”

Louise took her hand and stood up.

Then he pulled out a piece of paper from his bosom and handed it to her.

“I don’t think my sister would have answered without thinking. Please take this.”

“What is this?”

“This is proof that Brother Lev has been conspiring with the black magician.”

Silenced by those words, she looked around quickly and sat down on the sofa with Louise, carefully unfolding the paper.

On the paper, in the handwriting of the first prince, Lev Hertia, was written that a black magician should be planted in the desert expedition.

“Is it really a letter from brother Lev? How did you get this?”

“I didn’t stay still like an idiot either.”

In fact, after this desert expedition, there were quite a few people who wanted to help Louise.

The ability that came back alive even between the black magician and the desert boss.

It may be sheer luck, but those in power knew that luck didn’t come for free.

‘The Travis family… … . I never thought they would contact me.’

The help of the Travis family was also very great in finding out the secret of the first prince this time.

Although he has not yet fully expressed his support, he showed an attitude as if he was going to test his capabilities while helping this time.

This also played a part in why Louise couldn’t easily get out of this job.

“Oh, it seems like my brother has grown more mature than he hasn’t seen?”

Jane was delighted with Louise’s growth and said it like a joke.

“Don’t make fun of me.”

“Chi, you know how to do it. Anyway, is there anything else I can help you with?”

“I will help you… … , there is.”

He bit his lip a little hesitantly and turned his gaze away from Jane.

“What?”

“Ah, that… … .”

Frustrated with Louise for not being able to answer easily, she slapped the table with both hands and said,

“No, why are you so hesitant? If you agree to help each other, tell me clearly!”

“Can you hand over Len Argen as my own… Are you there?”

Louise blurted out her words as if embarrassed.

“Le, Le, Le, Len Argen?”

Embarrassed by her completely unexpected request, she stuttered a word she had never stuttered before.

“yes. I’m short of talent. We need people like Len Argen to bring this rotten royal family back to normal.”

Louise was actually interacting with Len Argen in the desert and trying to tell him to be her person.

But he is the one who came to help himself at the request of his sister Jane.

My sister was the only person who knew of Len Argen’s skill, which was completely hidden from anyone in Brilliant. Moreover, by joining this desert expedition, Ren’s chances of being exposed to warlocks and other figures increased.

The fact that he had been thoroughly hiding himself until now, didn’t mean that he finally came out because he was Jane Hertia’s person.

That’s why Louise couldn’t even offer him anything.

‘You were bewildered. Was it a request that was too shameless… … .’

Originally, due to Louise’s personality, she would never have asked her for something like this.

However, after going through the character of Len Argen this time, the thought of wanting to be with him did not leave my head.

The judgment and leadership to grasp the situation at once and find the graveyard of the Red Moon tribe, the swordsmanship that overwhelms the warlock, the mental strength to sacrifice for the sake of one’s comrades, and the ability to come back alive despite the danger of death.

I thought that if I was with Ren, I could really change Brilliant.

That’s why I risked my shame and asked my sister.

“Now, now, wait… only… … ?”

Jane was at a loss as to what to do with this request.

It was the first request Louise ever made.

That’s a request he made while spouting out his grandiose aspirations of wanting to change this place as the King of Brilliant.

Jane did not want to refuse his request in vain.

‘Boy, I can’t even tell that person… … .’

Jane also coveted Ren, but was willing to yield to Louise for the greater good.

But that’s just your own thoughts anyway.

He was powerless at all to tell Ren to become Louise’s person.

‘If you ask me to meet you once… Could it be?’

This time, while rolling around the desert with Louise, he must have formed quite a deep comradeship.

Maybe it’s easier than you think… .

‘… there can’t be Whew.’

She sighed and bowed her head.

I couldn’t lie to Louise about something I wasn’t sure about.

‘But maybe you don’t know?’

The constant hopelessness made her hesitate.

In that brief moment, the pendulum that had been going back and forth in my head suddenly popped out.

“Yeah, maybe I can just say it once.”

Louise suddenly took her hand.

“thank you so much. sister! I will never, never disappoint you.”

“Uh, huh?”

She giggled, wide-eyed in bewilderment.

‘What am I saying… … ?’

Louise seemed to have misunderstood as she spoke out what she had to think about in the moment.

She tried to clear up the misunderstanding even now, but her eyes were blushing as if he were moved.

Looking at it, Jane couldn’t possibly say it wasn’t like that.

“That, yes… … . Let me tell you.”

How many times have you stuttered today?

Louise was the most difficult person for her, who usually doesn’t notice and speaks coolly.

As Jane left Louise’s room, she clutched her forehead with a bewildered face.

“under… … .”

“Why is that?”

Shika, who appeared from the darkness, asks her.

“I have to go to Decane.”

“yes? Are you going to go there again?”

Shika said in an uncomfortable voice.

“okay. ha… … .”

And the uncomfortable thing was Jane too.

* * *

Huung-

When I swung the sword lightly, I felt no resistance.

It’s definitely heavy in the hand, but at the same time, it’s not that heavy.

The iron shield fixed on the support was hit hard.

Caang!

A loud roar rang out, but the shield remained intact, only slightly distorted.

My first marriage didn’t hurt me either.

ugh-

The first marriage cried as if it hurt its pride.

He was clamoring for spiritual power.

‘Yes, take it.’

ugh-

A green ore embedded in the guard above the handle.

When the spiritual power was injected, the ore glowed brightly, and the entire sword began to glow softly in a green light.

Whoo – Kaang!!

Just like that, he thrust his sword into the shield.

Kiki-Ik-

The center of the shield was hollowly pierced.

“Crazy… … .”

A sword that showed this level of destructive power and hardness with only spiritual power rather than using energy.

I stuck out my tongue with a laugh.

“how is it? Are you satisfied?”

At the welcome voice, I turned around and saw Caleb standing there.

“Don’t you need more rest?”

“Wouldn’t it be more important to rest, to see what my masterpiece is like?”

“Excellent. I can’t believe I have a treasured sword like this in my hand.”

“You deserve that sword. Doesn’t the sword acknowledge it? I mean you are your own master.”

“Do you see that?”

“of course. Even though it’s in your hands now, it was in my hands just a few hours ago. He’s like my son. I fell for you and fell for you. ha ha ha.”

He smiled brightly, as if he was in a really good mood.

“thank you.”

“Write it well. Please spread the word that the greatest masterpiece of the continent has come into my hands.”

“Don’t worry. This sword will be more deeply engraved in the minds of continental people than any other sword.”

“ha ha ha! After all, I have eyes for people.”

After a light conversation, when Caleb is about to stand up.

“Someone came from the Travis family.”

A blacksmith came inside and called me.

“Cohen wants to see Ren, saying he has returned to Kormir.”

“ah… … . All right.”

The timing is also good.

While I was in Cormir, I think I’ll just have to take care of Cohen Travis’ business and go back.

‘The graveyard of the Travis family… … .’

With the first marriage, the need for spiritual power increased, but it went well.

I hope my spiritual power increases a little this time.
