Chapter 950
Episode 234. to hell (10)
‘I should have told the family head more strongly from the beginning that I would go with you. There is even Kelliac Ziple in Jin Runkandel, who is on the right side of the window, but what on earth am I thinking of leaving the house alone… … !’
The tower of stories vibrated whenever Elona took a step. The tower resonated with her anger.
Most of the personnel residing in the tower did not dare to look up at Elona. It was because of the pressure of condensing all the magic power in the area.
“… … Miss Elona, I’m also worried about the householder. But please take your breath away for now.”
Ronil, the only one among the leaders, stood in front of Elona and opened her mouth.
“Sir Ronil.”
“The family wizards are falling. If Elona-nim leaves, they are all people who need to prepare for an attack by other forces, including the enemy tribes.”
Ronil was absolutely right.
However, Elona felt somewhat disappointed by Ronil’s businesslike attitude. Beradin cherishes him as a confidant, but it was because of the thought that the most important thing to Ronil was ‘Zipple’, not Beradin.
Looking back, of course, everyone in the family was like that.
“… … It becomes clear.”
Elona gathered her energy and said.
“May I ask what you mean by being certain?”
“My family name is important to me. But the lord is more important than that. I know very well that I am an immature human being. Sorry, I have to go.”
Ronil lowered his head.
“You have nothing to be sorry for us. Besides, it wasn’t Elona-sama’s arbitrary decision, and the patriarch sent a signal directly to Hrotti. The mainland will be well defended by us. Salion-nim is here at the moment, so go with Salion-nim to the castle of Grosche.”
“All right.”
When Elona went up to the top floor of the tower, Salion, the wind dragon, had already changed into her true form and was preparing to fly.
[Octavia waited for me here in case something like this happened.]
Said Salion, flying into the sky.
“okay.”
[Octavia, unlike the other guys, thinks that Beradin is absolutely necessary to maintain the present Zipple. And, no matter how she sounds to you, Octavia cares very much for Veradin as a human being as well. As you.]
Salion was accurately reading Elona’s psychology. I was a bit embarrassed to hear what she was saying, but she didn’t hate to hear it.
“I’m glad. I am… … I don’t know, Salion. Sometimes it feels like the family head is not the ruler of Zipple, but just a puppet that looks like a ruler.”
[Zipple is originally such a family. Either the family heads make everyone puppets, or everyone makes the family heads puppets. In fact, it’s not just a problem with Zipple. All the power groups in the world are so constituted.]
“It is.”
[Besides, since Beradin became the head of household, he has wielded an iron fist and has been purging. Everyone is afraid of him, so how could he be a puppet?]
The reason Elona felt that way about Beradin was no different.
It was because he knew that the appearance of Veradin now was not the result he wanted on his own. For this reason, those who assisted Beradin as his closest aides were most deeply involved in his mental manipulation.
However, Elona did not know the details of the mind manipulation experiment.
Veradin had deliberately kept quiet about mind manipulation so that Elona would not despise the leaders. She judged that falling out with Elona would not help the family at all.
‘Recently, the family head has definitely changed. He seemed shaken by something and missed something.’
Elona was hoping that more of Beradin’s human side would be revealed.
It was because of a premonition that if he kept ignoring them, someday, Beradin would eventually become a monster that only exists for Ziple, like himself in the past.
‘As long as the family head becomes like me a thousand years ago, I will do anything to stop it. Even if it becomes a hindrance to the family’s prosperity.’
My stomach was burning up. Even though Salion was speeding up to the point where his breathing was rough, he felt that Grosh was far from his temper.
Bad thoughts kept coming to my mind. Maybe Beradin was already dead.
[It’s all here.]
At sunset, the castle of Grosche came into view.
Most of the fleets and troops of each faction that were waiting at Grosh’e Castle entered Hell, but the Golden Ship and some fleets of Runcandel still remained.
The golden ships were guarding the entrance to Hell in formation. The union knew of Elona’s move after receiving an anonymous report shortly after Salion left the Tower of Stories.
[Elona, they knew we were coming.]
Salion said in a tense voice.
Suddenly, if the coalition was thinking of attacking the Federation of Lutero, it occurred to them that now might be the right time.
While all the families and the family’s most important fleet went on an expedition to Hell, only Jin and his party are missing from the alliance.
Of course, there was Elona, the strongest creation magician in Ziffle, but for now, the alliance had the overall strength advantage.
Besides, what if the alliance has even made some kind of deal with the enemy? Elona couldn’t handle all of that alone.
“… … Let’s talk first.”
A woman appeared at the head of the golden ship.
“Elona Ziple, wind dragon Salion. Pause, I have something to tell you.”
It was Runtia. Behind her, the former Dark Knights and Hedo appeared together.
“Do you want to fight me?”
When Elona showed her anger, the sea area around the castle was agitated.
“Are you deaf? Didn’t you say you had something to tell me?”
Runtia faced Elona’s murderous intent without batting an eye. Even if it’s not her spear yet, she also has the ability to fight like Elona and fights, and there were many people with that level of skill here.
In addition, since the Alliance even possesses the Red Owl and Mot, a means of leaping into space, it was possible to bring in additional power in an instant.
“If you want to fight, well, I won’t avoid it. But it looks like you came here for some urgent matter, and if you don’t want to mess with that matter, you’d better be obedient to the conversation.”
“… … Okay, let’s listen.”
“It should be. Our cow lord said that if a wonder visits the gates of hell, it would only be because the Beradin Ziple is dangerous. right?”
Of course, information about the identity and condition of the head of the family is a top secret for any family.
However, Elona immediately nodded. Because she didn’t have time to wrestle.
“is it so. I received a request for assistance from the state.”
“Then we have no reason to let you in. There’s nothing better for our Runcandel than the death of Jiple’s family in hell.”
“Now play with me… … .”
“Originally, it would have been. However, our Sogaju didn’t want him to die right now. I don’t know about you, but our Sogaju and the local lord were close friends in the past. It’s strange, but we’re the only ears here anyway.”
[Hey, Runtia Runkandel, what’s the point of saying that all of a sudden?]

“It would be nice if the wind dragon would close its snout. don’t you know yet? If you really want to save the Beradin Ziple, you have to accept whatever we ask for now. Do you have the confidence to fight us and then go rescue Beradin Zipline? Even if we beat all of us, it’s clear that Sir Elona won’t be safe. I don’t think the fight will end in a day or two.”
Salion could not refute and gritted his teeth.
“… … I know what you mean, so say what you want quickly.”
Elona barely had a calm voice. In fact, she wanted to tell me to get out of the way right now.
As Runtia said, if they fought with the Union now, the possibility of saving Beradin would disappear forever.
“Sir Elona Zipple. If you promise us one thing on your honor, we’ll get out of the way right away.”
“What promise?”
“I will go to hell safely and save Beradin Ziple. Meet our record wizard and face your past.”
“… … I beg your pardon?”
“That’s all of Runkandel’s requirements. Just as Runkandel and Ziple had a secret meeting in the past, it means that we will never attack each other and take a leisurely look at Sir’s past. I don’t think this would be such a bad condition for you either.”
It was a completely unexpected request for Elona.
And just like Runtia said, it wasn’t a bad condition for Elona. She said Elona wanted to find out her forgotten past.
Even if some terrible truth awaits.
“that is… … Is it really everything?”
“exactly.”
Salion hesitated, but Elona nodded as if there was nothing to worry about.
“All right. I will.”
“You are cool. I’m sure you’ll keep your promise.”
“I promise to you on the honor of me, my family, and the head of the family. After I, Elona Ziple, rescued the housekeeper and returned safely from her hell, she will meet Valeria Hister and face my past. but.”
Elona looked around the Union troops.
“… … If the person who put the family head in danger is not the demons but Jin Runkandel, I will definitely kill him in hell. When I return, I will reduce all of you to ashes. Even if the whole world is destroyed.”
“Huh, maybe it’s Changsung, so you have great confidence. But Kyung doesn’t know our Sogaju very well. Jin Runkandel is not a person who can commit such a cowardly act against a close friend. If her youngest had only her heart, Veradin Ziple would have died time and time again.”
Runtia shrugged.
“If it was the same atmosphere as before, it would be impossible to dream of. To think that Runcandel’s Sogaju was considerate of Ziple’s Sogaju. How much more does he send an enemy creation wizard down to the battlefield where Sogaju is located to save Beradin? But so is our youngest Runcandel. And everyone respects the will of the youngest. Beyond the law.”
Actually, I’m still not sure if my father in the Black Sea feels that way… … Runtia swallowed her words and looked at Elona.
“So go now. Runkandel will be watching to see if Kyung keeps his promise.”
The golden ship rose and opened the gates of hell.
Elona passed under it and thought about Runcandel for a short time on the way to the gates of hell.
There was obviously a big difference between the way Runkandel looked at Jin and the way Zipple looked at Beradin.
Because of this, Elona felt strange for a moment.
I forgot about it due to the long sealing, but even a thousand years ago, Elona had the same feelings as now.
It was the feeling of envy of Runkandel.
