In the morning light and mist, Tert, the capital of West Walker, woke up again.
The battle in the palace seven days ago seemed like ten years ago.
Although they are still human beings and can be talked about after dinner, their enthusiasm has long since disappeared.
After all, everyone has to live.
Royal cemetery.
Siwok VII, Dragon Vein Warlock Xion is in front.
Diabod and Al thank you behind.
Four people carried Prince Ruitai's coffin and walked slowly.
Behind them are the nine remaining children of Prince Reitai and the 'Knight of Knowledge' and the 'Knight of the Hammer'.
Jason, Taniel, Rodney, and Matthew walked at the back.
"A funeral like this..."
"Isn't it a bit simple?"
Taniel originally wanted to say something simple, but when the words came to his lips, they turned into something simple.
"This is what His Highness the Prince requested. A suicide note has long been placed in His Highness's secret room. Everything is kept simple. He only needs to be buried in the royal cemetery, next to his brother, and then...request not to erect a monument."
The well-informed Rodney spoke softly.
His words were full of admiration.
As an information dealer, Rodney certainly knew why Prince Ritai did what he did.
All Siwoks consider Prince Ritai to be a traitor.
He didn't want to argue, and he didn't want to argue.
Because he wanted to pave the way for his nephew and Siwok VII.
Although it was explained that he would soon become a hero and be remembered by the world, but such brilliance would make Siwok VII dim - Prince Ruitai did not want this, because it would affect Siwok VII's reputation.
, and may even deviate from Si Walker's management.
Therefore, Prince Ruitai is willing to bear the infamy.
This was the case when I was alive.
After death, it remains the same.
well.
Taniel sighed.
He always couldn't understand the thinking of a 'hero'.
"Perhaps because of this, I am a pharmacist, and they are heroes..."
Taniel thought in his heart and stepped forward quickly.
Prince Reitai's coffin has been placed in the pre-dug cave - it was dug by Siwok VII and the Ten Theons. According to Prince Reitai's last wish, it is right next to Siwok VI.
"Uncle, please watch us with your father, I will definitely fulfill your last wish!"
What was the last wish of King Siwok VI and Prince Shwetai?
Unify East and West Walker.
In other words, this is what all the emperors of West Walker wanted to do.
"Father, we will help my brother."
Theon and his brothers and sisters whispered.
In the eyes of these Dragon Vein Warlocks, nothing is more important than blood and family ties.
Power?
strength?
These are just tools to maintain blood and family ties.
The people closest to Prince Ruitai stepped forward one by one.
"Your Highness, you really impressed me - this time it's not flattery, it's true."
Diabode murmured to himself.
"Your Highness, I'm sorry. I didn't find out everything until the end. I was an incompetent guy. I hope, I hope... may you rest in peace."
The spy leader Al thanked him with tears and snot running out of his nose.
This spy leader may not be very smart, but he is definitely an emotional person.
He had too many things to say.
But, in the end, only blessings remained.
"You are worthy of the title of 'Knight'!"
The 'Knight of Knowledge' and the 'Knight of the Hammer' beat their chests.
When it was Jason's turn with Taniel, Rodney, and Matthew, Jason put down the bouquet and stood aside without saying a word.
Jason didn't know what to say.
He's not very good at dealing with this situation.
It was like this before.
Now?
Nothing has changed either.
Taniel obviously felt the same way. After putting down the bouquet, he walked over to his friend.
Rodney is different.
"Your greatness will be remembered in my heart."
"I learned more from you."
"I'll keep it."
Rodney said almost in a ramble.
Matthew's eyes were complicated. After saluting, he put down the bouquet.
He already knew that the original 'One Hundred Thousand Gold Gram Robbery' was the work of Prince Ruitai.
Moreover, he has now been pardoned by Siwok VII.
He can use his previous identity and walk out into the sun.
only……
He has become accustomed to Matthew's identity.
He doesn't plan to change it.
Of course, he also retired from being an agent.
The days after?
He can receive a generous pension and live the life he has always wanted, and he no longer has to live in fear and fear.
And that bastard Rodney is planning to start a newspaper and invites him to become an editor and reporter.
He is considering it.
Unknowingly, the life he wanted was achieved.
But such a life was accomplished with the help of the person who caused his suffering.
Matthew didn't know what expression to use.
I can only lament my fate.
After a brief farewell ceremony, Siwok VII and Theon began to fill the soil.
Soon, a tomb without a tombstone appeared.
Bouquets of flowers were placed in front of the mausoleum.
The morning wind blows.
White flowers sway.
The surrounding trees were rustling.
All peaceful.
This may be what Prince Shwe Thai has always wanted to see.
He stayed beside his brother, looking at the peaceful home.
Never change.
"Sir Jason, are you leaving?"
Siwok VII walked up to Jason.
"Um."
“I’ve eaten at ‘Starry Sky Restaurant’, ‘Gray Whale’, ‘Torres’, and ‘Petop’ restaurants, and they’re all very good – thank you for your letter of introduction.”
Jason nodded and answered kindly.
There are many famous restaurants in Terte.
This week, he and Taniel ate everything.
All are worthy of the name.
The reason why I was able to eat it so quickly was entirely thanks to Siwok VII.
With the introduction from His Majesty Emperor Siwok, Jason was spared the trouble of queuing.
It makes every restaurant take it seriously.
Really grateful.
"As long as you are satisfied."
"You are always welcome at Terte's palace."
"If you need anything, please let me know in advance."
Siwok VII, who had learned Jason's current identity from some channels, became more and more respectful.
Also like 'Knight of Knowledge' and 'Knight of Hammer'.
Originally, the 'Knight of Knowledge' hoped to draw Jason into the knight camp, but when the 'Knight' told him everything, the titled knight immediately stopped.
Of course, there is envy.
More of awe and admiration.
They are already at the sixth level, and they are very aware of the difficulty of creating a 'source point'.
Especially the choice is...
【Flash Technique】!
No one thought that the end of [Flash Technique] would be the ‘source point’!
However, even if you know it.
I'm afraid it's difficult for anyone to achieve it.
As a 'Knight of Knowledge', he is very aware of the difficulty of [Flash Technique].
The basics are very simple to get started, but if you improve further, it will consume exponentially more energy.
Moreover, no one has gained power yet.
It's okay if you are alone, but when your companions have reached a high enough position and you are still standing still, the feeling is not something that ordinary people can bear.
What's more, as a 'mysterious person', you encounter even more dangers.
If you only rely on [Flash Technique]...
Who can guarantee your own safety?
Therefore, after being envious and shocked, the 'Knight of Knowledge' is filled with admiration.
envy?
nonexistent.
He knew very well that even if he was given a similar opportunity, he would not be able to achieve it.
The same goes for ‘Hammer Knight’.
"When nothing happens, remember to come back and see me!"
"I have reserved a position as editor-in-chief for you!"
Rodney and Taniel hugged each other goodbye.
"Don't worry, I'll come to Terte when Deer Academy goes on winter vacation!"
Taniel responded.
When it was Matthew's turn, Tanier was even more straightforward.
"It's holiday, so I'll come and taste your craftsmanship."
"welcome!"
"I try to come up with new recipes as often as possible!"
Matthew smiled.
Everyone said goodbye, and Tanier walked to Jason.
The two looked at each other, and Jason raised his hand on Taniel's shoulder and waved to everyone.
next moment--
Jason took Tanir and turned into a ray of light and soared into the sky.
In the blink of an eye, it disappeared.
"Such speed..."
Everyone looked at it, admired it, and then shook their heads and sighed.
I can't envy you.
"Everyone, we have more important things to do. Please come to the small conference room with me."
After Siwok VII came to his senses, he extended an invitation to everyone present.
No excuses.
Everyone followed Si Walker towards the small conference room.
Everyone knew very well what Siwok VII was planning to do.
East Walker!
Especially after the disaster just happened on the East Walker waterfront!
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
…
Just before Siwok VII and his party arrived at the small conference room, Jason had returned to Lord with Taniel.
With the blessing of 'stealth' that was far beyond the ordinary, Jason concealed his brilliance and landed in front of No. 10 Pea Street with Taniel.
Taking out the key, Taniel opened the fence door.
"Jason, wait a moment, I'm going to buy flowers and food."
After Taniel handed the key to Jason, he turned and walked out of the alley.
When you go to see the old Sir, you can't go empty-handed.
Jason picked up the key and opened the door to the main building.
Then, he picked up the cleaning tools and started cleaning seriously.
It has been quite some time since the two of them left Lord.
No. 10 Pea Street was filled with dust, fallen leaves, and even spider webs in some places.
Jason cleaned bit by bit.
Very detailed.
Not a single corner was spared.
After Taniel returned, he saw this scene and immediately joined the cleaning process.
I was busy until noon when the cleaning was completed.
Then, Tanier held the flowers and Jason held the food - all cooked food bought from the food shop.
The two of them walked underground.
The resting place of the old knight and his loyal squire.
Flowers and food are all arranged.
"Sir Beta, Eric, we are back."
Kneeling on one knee, Taniel spoke in a low voice.
He told everything that happened in Terte.
It's like a junior telling an elder.
Jason remained silent.
This narration lasted half an hour.
call!
Taniel let out a long breath, seemingly finally letting go of what he had been doing in his heart. He stood up and looked at his friend Jason.
"Do you need me to inform Bundy and the others?"
Taniel knew that his friend who was not good at expressing needed a separate space to chat with the old jazz.
However, before leaving, Taniel asked.
"Next time."
Jason replied.
Taniel was stunned.
Being familiar with Jason, he immediately guessed what was going on.
"Jason, are you going on a long trip?"
Taniel asked.
"Um."
"But I will be back."
"So, we can only get together next time."
Jason didn't hide anything and nodded.
"when are we leaving?"
Taniel asked.
"Leave in a moment."
"So fast?"
Taniel exclaimed.
"Some things have been delayed for a long time. I have to deal with them as soon as possible - if everything goes well, I will be back when you are on vacation."
"Right, let's continue with this."
Jason said, as if he thought of something, he took out a brand new copy of "The Gravekeeper's Certificate" and threw it over.
This was something he got inadvertently after dealing with a certain "gravekeeper" who had no eyesight in the past week.
It has not become a ‘dagger’.
Instead, it became a ‘proof’.
This is his unique ability as the 'Gravekeeper Origin'.
As the new 'gravekeeper's source', it is naturally useless for the 'gravekeeper's certificate'.
However, Taniel is useful.
"this?"
Taniel naturally knew what happened at that time.
In fact, the original tombkeeper was targeting him.
"Use it and you can contact me after taking office as the 'gravekeeper' - high probability."
Jason added.
He didn't know if the signal could be received in the 'City That Never Sleeps'.
"understood!"
Taniel didn't pay much attention to it.
He agreed happily.
All he knew was that he could contact Jason at any time.
As for the rest?
No matter how much.
Even if it's a 'part-time job', that's what he calls it.
Although it will make him work harder.
However, he thinks it's worth it.
Looking at Taniel, who was depressed a moment ago, but left happily at this moment.
There was also a little more joy in Jason's mood.
Why do we have friends?
Maybe it's because of this concern.
Why do you want to go home?
Because there is also his concern there.
call!
Taking a deep breath, Jason turned back and looked at the graves of the old knight and his squire.
"Old Sir, I promise you."
"I did it."
no sooner said than done.
This is a commitment between men and men.
Even if it is far more difficult than imagined.
He died countless times.
If death appeared one tombstone at a time, it is estimated that the number of tombstones could circle the equator three times.
but,
Finally did it.
Jason took out the jar containing the incomplete Beast of Desire and placed it directly in front of the old Jazz's tombstone.
There was only a section of tentacle left in the jar, and at this time the last bit of activity was lost.
‘Shepherd’ is truly dead.
That is the moment when the shepherd truly died.
Jason's figure disappeared from this world.
[Main Mission 1: Revenge, kill the ‘Shepherd’! (Complete)]
[Main Mission 2: Escape from the gaze of an unknown entity! (Complete)! 】
[Because user (1)’s special power interfered, user (2)’s original rewards disappeared, and user (1) once again lost more permission to use the ‘Secret Book of Food’. 】
(mark 123 omitted)
…
Jason's eyes changed.
He returned to the table again.
Different from before.
The binding power on his body, according to [Note 2], completely disappeared.
However, Jason did not stand up immediately.
Instead, he looked to the opposite side.
Opposite him, user (1) is sitting.
The other party sneered——
"You are finally back!"
"This time, there is no suppression from the copy world!"
