15. realize (3)

Kati, who was on Vivian’s lap, suddenly disappeared.

“Huh?”

Both Vivian and Helena looked embarrassed, but Mercy’s expression hardened seriously.

“This… It means Ian is in danger!”

It was difficult to follow the context.

So, the two thought Mercy was playing a joke, but it wasn’t like that at all.

In an instant, his face turned white and his body trembled.

“Hey, let’s go out… !”

I don’t know, but if that was true, it couldn’t have been like this.

“Yes… !”

The two jumped up and took Mercy outside.

*

It wasn’t difficult to find where Ian was.

Even from a very far distance, I could feel the ferocious spirit that could be called ‘dangerous’.

Vivien and Helena, who were running while hiding the unbearable Mercy in Vivien’s pocket, saw it.

Ian and Kylie facing each other on both ends of the rough ground, as if a huge claw had scratched it.

In the center of them, traces of the ‘Ice Wall’ unfolding in a circle remained.

‘Kylie… ? Why is the first party member here? Are you going to take Ian with you? But who is that ice… .’

right after that.

An ice spear landed on Kylie’s head.

It was small and thin compared to Vivian’s.

However, just because it was small, it did not mean that it could be ignored.

With just that Ice Spear, Vivian sensed the difference in class between the caster and herself.

‘Density… .’

The ice created by magic is close to transparent, giving off a bright azure color.

But what I saw in front of me was navy blue.

A dark color that sucks in and locks in all the surrounding light.

‘That’s theoretically possible… ?’

-Quad deuk!

The ice spear that deflected Kylie’s sword continued to dig into the ground.

-Knocking deuk deuk… .

Hearing that sound, Vivian and Helena were shocked once more.

The density magic that keeps digging into the ground is also amazing.

The body that endured it was also amazing.

‘Who the hell did that kind of magic… .’

Vivian was overwhelmed just by imagining the density and weight of that ice spear.

“C’mon, it’s Sylvia… !”

Beginning with a startled shout, a sorceress with blue hair broke through the crowd watching from a distance.

The cold beauty is still the same, but unlike before, the complexion has become pale, giving off a decadent atmosphere.

She was the idol of Sylvia and Vivian of the 1st Hero Party.

It was a while to be both happy and surprised to see the idol.

Vivian was quickly discouraged.

‘this… . The 1st Hero Party… .’

I won’t be Sylvia, but I will be Ian’s Vivian.

It was a moment when I doubted what the words meant.

Vivian and Helena.

The two of them have been excited lately.

It was enough to recognize that the strength of the two was far superior to those of the same rank or career.

I also got an artifact that is hard to see in a lifetime, and also found a holy relic.

That’s why they thought their strength and abilities were quite powerful.

Until now, before the ‘gyeok’ of the 1st warrior party.

A warrior party managed by Ian.

At the same time, it was a wall they had to overcome someday.

Helena realized the true value of the words that Ian and Ian usually exchanged like jokes, “going over Arya.”

It would mean that Arya can at least become the two monsters in front of me.

It might feel powerless, but Helena’s heart didn’t.

Rather, it was full of enthusiasm.

It felt like a specific goal and direction were presented.

“Vivian.”

Helena called with a determined voice.

Vivian, who was stunned at the sight of another level of magic, barely came to her senses.

“Yes, Neue?”

“You can.”

At this moment, the two were the only relationship in which they could share the same feelings.

So there was something only Helena could say.

“Even after seeing people like that, Ian chose me and Vivian. So, don’t be intimidated.”

Helena’s voice trembled a little when she said that.

But, she believes.

Ian who recognized himself.

Vivian finally let go of her heart and smiled helplessly.

Even if I try harder, it won’t be enough, what will I do if my momentum breaks down?

“… Right. You can do it.”

I still hesitate when I think of that dense Ice Spear.

He says he can still do it.

If you say so, you can believe it.

Because Ian will believe that too.

Helena is with you too.

“Kylie… . Are you crazy?”

The two looked at the situation again.

“Why are you here… .”

I was able to guess the situation from the scenery I saw.

The floor that rose like a wave toward Ian and Kati blocking Ian’s way.

Then Sylvia storms in and attacks Kylie.

That is, Kylie tried to kill Ian.

But why?

Vivian and Helena too.

At first, seeing the two of them together, he wondered if Kylie had come to take Ian back.

However, judging from the surrounding scenery, it seemed far from that.

“It doesn’t matter. That you dared to attack Ian. It doesn’t matter.”

Sylvia said fiercely and glared at Kylie.

Observing her, Vivian and Helena felt deja vu.

‘… Ian?’

Looking at Sylvia, Ian came to mind.

She resembles Ian.

It is a resemblance with a different feeling from Mary.

Marie simply resembles that nervous impression.

But Sylvia resembles her more fundamentally.

The way he speaks, his vocabulary, his facial muscles used when making facial expressions, even his unique habit of brushing his bangs when he is annoyed.

Sylvia is closer to the feeling of ‘like Ian’ rather than ‘looks like’.

Vivian and Helena recalled the questions they had had about Grace.

‘… Who the hell is Ian?’

Is it possible to build such a deep emotional goal between a simple hero and a manager?

I had such a curiosity.

To be shocked again by the people around me fainting simply with the intent to kill.

Ian entered between them.

“stop.”

*

Ian wasn’t all right.

My fingertips go numb just by touching the murderous intentions that the two spew at each other.

“Both of you back off.”

However, the only person who could stop the two of them in this place was himself.

Prince of the Empire too.

Seonghwagyo’s prosperity.

There was no substitute for Ian.

“Are you going to kill everyone here? Back away right now.”

Even Ian wouldn’t have been able to if Kylie had gone on a rampage.

But he confirmed that Kylie twisted the sword at the end.

After that, I also saw Kylie’s reaction, who rolled her eyes with a very disappointed face.

Sylvia is also trying to stop Kylie, but it doesn’t seem like she’s trying to do anything.

Ian didn’t want to make things too big.

“Kylie, put your weapon down. Sylvia, you too, clean up all the moisture.”

“… … .”

The two couldn’t back away from Ian even though they noticed Ian.

Sylvia, in particular, was on guard, fearing that if she stepped back, Kylie would attack her again.

“hurry.”

At Ian’s urging, Kylie returned the sword to mana form first.

Only then did Silvia scatter the moisture she had scattered into the air with the wind.

The ice that had cracked beneath my feet had also faded.

“after… .”

Ian sighed and brushed his bangs.

Sylvia, who let go of tension, realized again that she was in front of Ian.

I didn’t come here for this.

It was completely unintentional.

However, since it happened like this… .

“Hmmmm… .”

Sylvia cleared her throat, then shyly twisted her hair and turned to Ian.

“I-Ian… ? It’s been a while… .”

But what she faced was Kati’s hard face.

Her eyes were covered with an eyepatch, making it difficult to understand her expression. She looked at Sylvia with a more hostile atmosphere than usual.

Sylvia, furrowing one eyebrow, tried to ignore Kati and looked at Ian behind her.

But Ian wasn’t looking at Sylvia.

“Ian… .”

Sylvia’s trembling voice called out to him, and his feet took a cautious step.

Then, Kati became more vigilant as if to protect Ian.

That touched Sylvia’s heart.

“you… .”

I was about to say something, but I kept my mouth shut.

She knew that she had no say.

Sylvia bit her poor lower lip.

That moment.

“Sylvia, Kylie.”

Someone sternly called out their names.

“You are arrested for participating in a conspiracy to rebel.”

Sylvia and Kylie, of course.

The people who were watching this unusual atmosphere were also surprised.

It was Oedipus, the first prince, who declared to them.

It was he that Ian was looking at.

I don’t know what the plan is, but I’m notifying that now is the time to push through.

“Their personal affairs will belong to the military police and the imperial family from now on. You can appoint an attorney, so please refer to it.”

Surprisingly, the prince was speaking directly.

“and. Penny, the current manager of the 1st Hero Party. The other two members, Aria and Beatrice. I will issue a wanted order to these three people.”

“I-Ian… ? What are you talking about… ?”

Sylvia asked with difficulty, but Ian did not answer.

It was after he withdrew far away with Kati.

As if he had no interest in Sylvia and Kylie, he was looking around to see if Katie was hurt.

“ah… .”

I knew it, but seeing it with my own eyes and experiencing it for myself was a completely different meaning.

He had no right to stand next to Ian.

The time for that has already passed.

The precious time that was possible is weeping in my heart.

It was funny.

Didn’t he destroy all of that preciousness?

The 1st Hero Party, the hope of humanity and the spearhead of the Empire, is arrested for treason.

The buzz of the crowd watching the shocking event seemed to gnaw at Sylvia’s eardrums like insects.

I know that Ian’s pride was himself at one time.

There was a time like that, obviously.

“Redeem.”

The Wolf Gang and the military police approached with extreme caution.

No matter how strong the Wolf Gang was, the opponent was the two of the 1st Hero Party.

Even one person can easily erase a city like this.

Even a fragment of their power, which had only been rumored, was just confirmed.

The floor of the city, which was tidied up only by the bursting waves, became bumpy.

It was terrifying just to imagine what would happen if it was directed at a person.

“Ian-!”

Kylie called Ian.

“No, this is not all… ! Misunderstanding! I can explain! No, before that, I have something to tell you! please tell me… .”

At that shout, the military police hesitated.

Kylie growled as she turned to them as they approached.

“Who the hell are you! Who said that bullshit… !”

The prince did not wait for her to speak.

“Kylie. You are also charged with attempted murder.”

“What… ?”

“You must be well aware of the fact that you showed off your sword skills with clear murderous intentions toward Ian. It is also a public place where many people gather indiscriminately. Special provisions apply to superhumans who radiate power even though they know how it will affect them, and they may be subject to aggravated punishment for their previous crimes.”

“This bastard is now… .”

“Do you think you are still the hero from before? I don’t think you know how serious the situation is. Right now, the prince and the emperor are also present here. Depending on the interpretation, it means that you fall under the attempted murder of the royal family and the Holy Emperor. Even if it wasn’t meant to be.”

“… … .”

“If we don’t cooperate more than this, the charges will only increase.”

The Emperor is an ordinary person.

Literally, not metaphorically, Kylie could have killed every normal person in this place with one breath.

Oedipus also vaguely sensed the danger, but did not back down.

The weight on the shoulders of the prince who came to this place was considerable.

Kylie ignored the prince and glared at Ian.

“I-Ian… ! You are responsible! Hey, you can’t ignore this situation! Anything to say… !”

“I know.”

Sylvia interrupted abruptly.

She politely held out her hands to the nearest gendarme.

“I don’t know what’s going on, but I’ll cooperate as best I can.”

“Sylvia… ?”

Sylvia glanced at Ian.

He was afraid that Ian would look after him if he did this, but that didn’t happen.

‘I guess so… .’

I knew it would happen, but I still wanted to believe that it was something I didn’t know.

This time, Ian was being checked by Carty for any injuries.

-How long are you going to check?

-This is a necessary procedure. Please be patient.

Looking at it makes me want to kill everyone and die myself.

Sylvia tightly closed her eyes.

“I, I… .”

“Kylie. Stop accepting it.”

“What have I done… !”

“… I did a lot. This will be part of a lot of it.”

Wolfgang approached before I knew it and cautiously handcuffed Sylvia with wooden handcuffs.

Sylvia really calmly offered her wrist.

“It’s just like Kylie said. This shit is over now… .”

“Even if it ends, it won’t be like this!”

“Then can you get away?”

Sylvia glared at Kylie in handcuffs.

Although her wrists were tied, Sylvia’s magic was not sealed.

Even those handcuffs can be broken with brute force alone.

That meant that if Kylie rebelled, she would have to fight Sylvia herself.

“you… . why so far… .”

“… Iknow, right.”

“Treason, isn’t it unfair? We, no, at least I… .”

“Are you embarrassed? me? Such an extravagant feeling… . It is unnecessary.”

Sylvia stopped looking at Ian.

“It must be the price you pay for kicking Ian out. certainly.”

Kylie’s gaze was still fixed on Ian.

All the while, his image of giving only what he had to be thankful for without hesitation is at odds with the present.

Having done his job, he had no interest in this side.

“this… . this isn’t it… . I mean, I didn’t come here for this… . Please, Ian… .”

Kylie muttered in vain.

The prince did not provoke her further.

Although Ian intervened, it was a dangerous situation even for him.

It’s the 1st warrior party.

If he refuses with all his might, it is impossible to arrest him.

However, seeing the confrontation between the two, I decided that it might be possible to redeem them if I did well.

I also confirmed the state of mind that was quickly shaken by Ian’s words.

Feigning composure, I waited impatiently.

Before long, Kylie opened her mouth as she glared at the prince with weak eyes.

“… Did you say he was a prince?”

“Oedipus Julian Humil. The eldest son of His Majesty the Emperor Julian, and the prince of the Humil family.”

“… is it. You are the one who has the power of power.”

Even in the midst of this, she was thinking about the golden rule of power.

Power was not necessarily brute strength.

The power of power to rule, to command, to govern is the only kind of power that is partially recognized.

“… take it But, if you’re talking nonsense… . No, no.”

Kylie looked at Ian and kept her mouth shut.

His eyes were on Ian, and his ears remembered what Sylvia had said earlier.

‘I’ve already done too much… .’

The boomerang he threw unconsciously comes back and sticks to himself.

If Ian was there, things wouldn’t have happened.

‘Will responding obediently like this be a kind of gratitude… .’

Finally, Kylie’s wrists were also handcuffed.

In the city of Fiorene, two members of the 1st Hero Party were arrested.

At the same time, a wanted order was issued to the rest of the personnel.

The rumor spread very quickly.

*

‘Ian… ?’

Edgar, the representative of the Liberal League hiding in the secret road leading to the banquet room, heard the name.

Even the fact that he is the former manager of the 1st party.

It was the moment when he finally found the person he was looking for.

‘It’s a matter of when to deal with it… .’

This place is too dangerous.

The location has been confirmed, so it might be best to evade yourself for now.

But don’t let it take too long.

The Anti-Imperial Alliance was virtually discovered, and the relationship with the prince seems to be deep.

If you delay, you will miss the time to ambush.

Edgar secretly followed them upstairs and watched from afar what the first party of warriors were doing.

Trying to kill Ian, Sylvia breaking in and fighting, and even the process of the Emperor arresting the two.

I checked on the roof of a building far away, so I wasn’t overwhelmed by the momentum of the first party.

Instead, I was sure.

It’s the right time tonight, when the Prince and Seonghwang, as well as the military police and Lazri, will be busy arresting the 1st warrior’s party.

The city will be in chaos, so there will be no time like tonight to work.

‘Tonight… Finish quickly and go back.’

*

A certain room after the situation was properly organized.

Ian revealed what happened today to Vivian and Helena.

“I am Philip.”
