Chapter 65. face to face (1)
One.
Kazan Rudrik.
Artina Mun Arpen.
Einer Mel Arpen.
Zartoum Barial Mordem.
The four men and women who appear in the video.
As Ulan and his group were looking at them blankly, the background of the video suddenly came into view.
A desert that is utterly desolate.
With the sun heating up the golden sand, the haggard expressions of the four men and women were visible.
Meanwhile, Laurea, who had observed the scenery up to this point, sparkled as if she had realized something.
“It seems like it records what happened after the 7-day disaster ended.”
“Why do you think that?”
“That’s one of the reasons that only the four last survivors out of the 10 heroes gathered together, and also because the sun is up in the sky.”
A thousand years ago, the day the abyss struck the desert.
It is said that morning did not come to the desert until the seven days of disaster were over.
Adding to the speculation mentioned above, Laurea’s words made some sense.
“I also agree with Laurea’s words.”
“My thoughts are the same as the saint’s.”
Delia and Ian also supported Laurea’s opinion. Just when everyone’s thoughts were coming together, everyone’s mouths suddenly closed.
There is only one reason.
This was because I suddenly heard a conversation between the four men and women who were on the other side of the video.
“The day has finally dawned.”
A somewhat heavy, low-pitched voice.
The protagonist who suddenly opened his mouth was Kazan Rudrik, a man with black hair and blue eyes.
In the video, he stared at the other three men and women and continued speaking calmly.
“Now tell me everyone’s opinions.”
Some time after Kazan’s words.
There was someone who came forward first. An elderly man wearing a pure white priest’s robe. It was a person presumed to be the priest Zartum.
“I want to prepare for the abyss with records.”
“record?”
“okay. “We are passing on our experiences to future generations and providing them with the knowledge and information to fight against the abyss.”
Through that answer, Ulan and his party were convinced that he was Zartoum. Meanwhile, after the answer was finished, the two women who had been silent shook their heads.
“Well, I guess it’s definitely necessary.”
“I agree too. Just passing on this experience will be of great help to future generations.”
Fairies with silver and white hair respectively.
It was Artina and Ainer.
Their faces are so similar that you can believe they are grown-up Delia and Perticia. Also, the voices showed similar tendencies as the faces.
“Furthermore, I am also thinking about creating a way to reach the arrangement you will leave behind.”
“Then I will take on the role of guide.”
As soon as Zartum finished speaking, Kazan joined the conversation again. Then Zartum looked at him with slightly surprised eyes.
“Yes? “You?”
“To be exact, they are my descendants.”
“Haha, I see. “The people under your command are fully qualified to be guides.”
Zartum bursts into laughter.
Through their conversation, the reason why Rudric’s family came to Zartum’s tomb was revealed.
Meanwhile, with a cool laugh, Zartoum stepped back as if he had finished speaking.
After the conversation between the two ended.
Kazan’s gaze turned to Artina, the silver-haired fairy who was closest to him. Then Artina answered as if she had been waiting.
“I will leave the desert and return to the forest.”
「… … what?”
“Don’t look at me like that. Because I have no intention of running away. “We just move places, but the idea of preparing for the abyss is the same as yours.”
Artina added an additional explanation as if to avoid misunderstanding, then sighed briefly. She then spoke out about the preparedness she had made.
“I plan to create magic that can effectively attack the beings of the abyss, and to foster excellent magicians by passing this on from generation to generation.”
By the time she finished answering.
Delia, who was staring at the video blankly, moved her lips without realizing it.
“Cluster magic… … .”
Supreme magic that uses the magic power of stars.
Cluster magic is a magic that can only be learned by those born with fairy blood, but unlike the other six attribute magic, its precedents are not clear.
So it was a fact that I had always wondered about, but I had no idea that my doubts would be resolved like this.
At that time, Artina opened her mouth again.
“Oh, and you should also interfere with the trials.”
“Ordeal?”
“okay. One day, when the world and the abyss are connected again, the stars will select and gather heroes who will stand against the abyss, just as they did for us.”
10 heroes who faced the abyss.
Artina continued speaking in a calm tone along with the story of her colleagues and the only four remaining heroes.
“So, I would like to intervene in the selection process and leave an arrangement to the person who inherits my role.”
“Well, is that possible?”

“I read the future through the fate of the stars.”
Artina nodded, saying such great words as if they were no big deal. After that, she suddenly darkened her complexion.
“However, according to the fate of the stars, seven new heroes will be born in the future. “It’s probably because of those who have fallen into the abyss and become corrupted.”
Largtan Burka.
Astevan Urbatra Mordem.
Farus Khan.
In the process of repeated battles, three heroes fell into the abyss and became corrupted for their own reasons.
When their existence was mentioned, the faces of others, including Artina, also darkened.
But even for a moment.
“Anyway, this is all my story.”
The conversation resumed as Artina concluded her long story. Kazan then turned to her next companion.
Einer, a fairy with snow-white hair.
She made eye contact with Kazan and gave the answer she had prepared with a faint smile.
“I have the same thoughts as you.”
“That means… … .」
“Are you saying you’re going to leave the desert?”
“Yes, the existence of spirits is essential to confront the abyss, but in the last battle, all spirit veins in the desert were cut off, and as a result, the desert turned into a land where spirits could not live.”
A good reason that is easy to understand.
Kazan shook his head.
“Right. “I understood what it meant.”
“Well, then I guess I’ll have no choice but to leave the desert for arrangements.”
Zartum nods as well.
But Einer’s words were not over yet. She hesitated as she looked at her two men, who were convinced of her own way, and then continued her words.
“Ah, of course, it’s not something that can be solved neatly by leaving the desert.”
“hmm? “What does that mean?”
“The spiritual veins of this world are all connected as one. So, due to the impact of contact with the abyss, the spiritual veins not only in the desert but also in other areas are being cut off.”
「… … what?”
Kazan and Zartoum’s expressions subtly changed as they heard a sound that sounded ominous.
And at that moment, an answer came back that added more certainty to the sinister nature of the two.
“So, probably in a few hundred years, all spirits will disappear.”
「… … !?」
Kazan and Zartum open their eyes.
On the other hand, Artina reacted indifferently, as if she already knew the truth, and Einer was still laughing.
After a short time has passed.
Zartoum stuttered.
“Well, then the arrangement is useless… … .」
“Don’t worry about that. I have made arrangements. Just before the abyss passage in the oasis disappeared, a seed was left behind.”
“Into the abyss?”
“Yes, it is a spirit seed that will hatch in the distant future when the conditions are met. It will definitely be of great help if the world and the abyss are reconnected someday!”
Einer clenched his small fists.
Meanwhile, Kazan and Zartoum sighed with relief when they heard that preparations had been made. Then, as if he suddenly realized something, he spoke again.
“Wait a minute, if you’ve already made arrangements… … .」
“Is there any need to leave the desert?”
“there is. “I need to create a link between the Spiritualist who will take over my role in the future, the trials, and the seeds that were thrown into the abyss.”
This is the mission she set for herself.
This is the true identity of the arrangement that Einer mentioned. After explaining everything, she smiled brightly while linking arms with Artina.
“So I’m thinking of leaving the desert.”
That’s how Einer’s story ended.
After the three heroes each come up with a plan to prepare for the abyss, there is only one thing left.
There was only Kazan Rudrik.
Kazan, who was receiving everyone’s attention, silently exchanged glances with his colleagues. Then he spoke out the story he had prepared.
“My plan is similar to Artina’s.”
“You mean to intervene in the ordeal?”
“Yes, I also agree with the plan to make arrangements for trials. “If you want to win against the abyss, you cannot choose any means or methods.”
A 7-day disaster that struck the desert.
Kazan closed his eyes tightly and bit his lip as if recalling the memories of that time. After a while, he regained his composure and began speaking again.
“However, I do not want to intervene in existing trials, but rather create new trials.”
「… … huh?”
“What do you mean?”
Twin fairies ask questions at the same time.
In response to Artina and Ainer’s words, Kazan poured out a prepared answer as if he had been waiting.
“The creation of heroes other than the seven heroes determined by the fate of the stars. “That is the measure against the abyss that I have decided upon.”
Kazan’s blue eyes flashed fiercely.
Meanwhile, after he finished answering, his colleagues showed blank expressions as if they were momentarily speechless. Then Einer and Artina opened their mouths.
“Uh, so… … .」
“You want to create a new hero?”
“okay.”
A short answer that came out firmly.
At that time, silence came again as Kazan nodded. Zartum, who had been quietly listening to the story, suddenly burst into laughter.
“Hahaha! “I thought he was a strange guy when I first saw him, but I never thought he would think of defying fate and creating trials.”
He wasn’t the only one who laughed.
Artina also laughed and shook her head as if it were absurd.
“As expected, it’s unique.”
“But what on earth are you going to do?”
Next, Einer asked what the specifics were. In response, Kazan gazed intently at the northern sky outside the desert.
“First of all, I plan to create a trial for the heir who carries on my blood. “The location should be one where there is the greatest possibility that the door to the abyss will open in the future.”
An oasis called the eye of the desert.
This place, which served as a passage between this world and the abyss, was also famous as a place where pure magical power welled up.
But now that the seven-day disaster is over, the place where the oasis was has turned into a dry wasteland.
Therefore, there is a high possibility that the next door to the abyss that will be opened will not be here, but somewhere else.
And finding out where that place was was the first step in Kazan’s plan.
“Next, I will create an ordeal in the desert for those who have the same fate as me. If you use all your remaining strength, you will be able to get to that level.”
After giving a meaningful-sounding answer, Kazan smoothed down his black hair. After his mouth closed, Einer stammered and asked.
“Well, is that possible?”
“Is there even one thing I’ve said out loud that was impossible?”
“that… … .」
She was about to say something but closed her mouth.
It seemed like it probably wasn’t there.
“Anyway, I can follow my plan, and you can follow your plan. And one day, it can be said that our common mission is to make sure that everyone’s arrangements come together in one place.”
Lastly, that story.
In the silence that followed, Kazan slowly looked at the faces of his colleagues. Then he suddenly smiled bitterly.
