Chapter 1297
Episode 1297. The day dawned
as if I was dreaming .
After breakfast, Baron Howard Solon and Crea Tynelock set out to tidy up the tent.
Perhaps because of the sense of solidarity of being a member of the so-called ‘rock road manor’, Fabian didn’t just look at it, but quietly helped organize it.
Elio said as he put the organized tent and simple bed in the Mahadam (space storage).
“Fabian has grown up.”
“What are you talking about?”
“It means you do something you didn’t want to do. Tidying up isn’t your job.”
“As a member of the manor family on the same rocky road, they helped me. It’s also disrespectful to just watch other people work while doing big brother and younger brother.”
“Aren’t you insulting me?”
“Why do you think so? There are no disciples who make the master do the work.”
“Yah! you look different There’s a saying, ‘a ghost who grows up’… I’ll have to use my brain a lot if I don’t want to hear a ghost.”
“Don’t curse.”
“A bad joke is something like ‘If a person changes, he dies’. ‘Ghosts who grow up’ are a proverb.”
“I’ve never heard of a saying like that.”
“Oh, we are in our hometown.”
“What kind of place is Lord Lagoa’s hometown?”
“What are you talking about?”
“Seeing you say it sometimes, I think it’s a bit bad.”
“It is the same wherever people live. It’s not that different from here.”
“There is no such ill-intentioned saying here as Lord Lagoa spoke.”
“Why is that evil? They are worried that the other person will be haunted.”
“I feel ridicule and sarcasm from the listener’s point of view.”
“That’s because your stomach is twisted.”
As I was chatting, the campsite was finished being cleaned up before I knew it.
As soon as he put his luggage in Mahadam, Elio went back to Luna Mylus’ side without any regrets.
Fabian pursed his lips and grumbled at Count Elio Lagoa’s actions.
“No, why do you say you twisted the inside of a normal person?”
Then, Clare, who was watching from the side, said a word.
“As for that grotesque proverb, I am on your side. The hometown of Count Lagoa must be a bit scary.”
“yes? It’s a proverb that is strangely sarcastic. But that’s what worries me.”
“Absolutely not.”
Crea, who has excellent empathy, shook her head.
“I don’t think that’s a concern either.”
When Crea and Baron Howard Solon joined the conversation, Elio shouted.
“Fabian! What are you doing without leaving? Are you going to eat lunch here? Shall we open a seat on the road?”
“no! going! song! Anyway, if you think you’re at a disadvantage, you won’t be able to talk.”
Eventually, Tynelock and Fabian sped up and took the lead.
There were mines everywhere going down the mountain.
The upper part of the mountain is well maintained, but there are many closed mines as you go down.
Most of the closed mines had clear signs of being destroyed by something.
It must have been the monsters that escaped from the Valley of Skulls by chance.
Elio murmured as he passed the closed mine.
“When I think of the monster wave, I don’t understand why the upper part is intact. Why was only the bottom smashed?”
said Luna Mylus, looking around Sanse.
“It’s probably because of the Valley of Skulls.”
“How is that?”
“The Valley of Skulls must be connected to the Evrimar Plain. The monsters must have moved through the valley.”
“Is that right?”
Elio looked at her with an ambiguous face.
What does it have to do with the intact mines of Mount Petra?
At that moment, Luna Mylus shouted ‘Put!’ and shed a laugh.
“why?”
“Don’t try to get an easy answer, think about it yourself. Don’t just tell Sir Fabian to use his brain.”
“Sister, I use it when I write. You’re still scratching your head. One way is to use a smart older sister.”
“Oh, is that so? So should I be used? Mount Petra meets Skull Valley, but it won’t work. Because the terrain is difficult for monsters to approach… I guess it looks down on the skull valley from under this mountain?”
“ah! So you’re saying we’re above the Valley of Skulls?”
“that’s right. Perhaps the road will soon cut off and a cliff called the Valley of Skulls will appear. It is so steep that even monsters cannot climb it.”
“I understand when you say that. It’s a cliff, it’s a cliff.”
Elio nodded vigorously as if he had figured it out.
There might be monsters climbing the cliff by chance, but that would be a very small number.
And the subject of mine development must have been weak enough to be destroyed by even the fewest monsters.
If it was a mine developed by a mercenary corps, not a mercenary guild, that would have been the case.
“The mines you saw today were developed or developed by mercenaries or adventurers, right?”
“If you look at the scale, it will. It was small and shabby to see as a kingdom or guild unit.”
“But don’t you think you can make a lot of money if you work hard? Think of those mana stone veins in the Ferdom Mine. You just have to scoop it up in the ground.”
“Think about digging that deep. Would an ordinary mercenary or adventurer do something like that?”
“You can hire a miner.”
“There are no miners to hire in Tombstone. Mining development is difficult unless you recruit miners from the beginning and move together. Have you ever seen mercenaries and adventurers who take miners with them while paying their salaries?”
“No.”
“Mercenaries and adventurers are warriors, not merchants. not enough money That’s why I’m trying to save the money I would give to a handyman or a miner-gatherer and do it myself.”
“But that doesn’t work out. After all, whether it’s an adventurer or a mercenary group, you’re saying that proper mine development only takes place when the scale is large, right?”
“that’s right. The closed mines we have seen are the result of not being so.”
“Money makes money, and it is the same in another world.”
“Because people’s lives are the same everywhere.”
Elio nodded with a bitter face.
Do people in Gangho know?
Even in Sanggye, you have to work hard to live without going hungry?
After noon, Fabian, who was leading, shouted.
“The road is cut! It’s a cliff!”
After a while, Elio’s party gathered around Fabian and Tynlock.
indeed! The road that seemed to continue all the way down the mountain suddenly cut as if it had been cut with a knife.
Below the cliff, a long canyon stretched to the north.
It was Skull Valley.
Elio looked down and said to Fabian.
“Would it be okay to go down?”
“It’s not difficult to go down if you just throw one rope down. They don’t even have wagons, and all of them are sword beginners or higher.”
“okay? This much is easy for you, right?”
“I am, of course. Clara how are you? Can you go down with just one rope?”
“Yes, I don’t know because I haven’t tried anything like this, but I think it’s possible.”
“Did you hear? It’s possible. If only Crea can do it, everything is possible. Ah, I don’t know what the saintess will be like.”
Fabian glanced at the saintess.
Elio smiled and said.
“Don’t worry about our saintess sister. If it doesn’t work out, I can serve you with Tornubis.”
“ah! That’s it. Can’t we just go down to Tornuvis, too?”
“I don’t have confidence in burning many people. It’s because it’s not free to use spiritual skills in the Abyss. What if the clouds disperse on the way? Are you confident that you will survive even if you fall?”
“doesn’t exist. Hearing those words suddenly changed my mind. Now, even if Lord Lagoa asks me to ride on the cloud, I will decline.”
“So that’s Fabian. People are consistent.”
Elio said no more about Tornubis.
What I said to Fabian was not an exaggeration.
Since the spread of spiritual energy did not go as planned, Unjongsul was also anxious.
Elio pulled out a rope from Mahadam and put it out.
Fabian and Baron Howard Solon tied a rope to a thick tree and hung it down.
Elio returned after checking under the rope with his airborne alertness.
“hey! The rope can’t even go half way. I will have to do this two more times.”
Fabian asked, frowning as if he was troubled.
“Twice more? Is there a place for people to step in the middle?”
“Who am I? I have already made it.”
“Good job. Then I will go down first.”
Fabian grabbed the rope and disappeared downstairs.
After a while, Baron Tynelock Howard Solon and Crea Paladin Almet Hareb descended one after another.
After about 10 minutes, when the rope that was tied to it swayed, Elio said.
“Looks like everything is gone. My sister is resting here for a while. When they reach the bottom of the valley, I will come up and take them to Tornuvis.”
“I heard that the clouds might disperse?”
“At that time, I can carry it. Carrying only one sister down is not a job.”
“Okay then. I will be resting while watching the scenery here.”
“I’ll be back soon. It won’t be long.”
Elio untied the rope and held it in his hand, and jumped down the cliff.
Left alone, Luna Mylus moved to the shade of a nearby tree.
Had it been about an hour?
Just when she felt a little bored, Elio jumped up.
“sister!”
“Are you here?”
“Were you bored by yourself?”
“are you okay. It didn’t take long. How about down the cliff? Doesn’t that look dangerous?”
“It was a bit uncomfortable right after the wave, but I couldn’t see any beasts, let alone monsters.”
“okay? It’s kind of strange that you can’t even see a beast in such a lush valley.”
“It must have been eaten by monsters during the wave.”
“is it.”
It sounded plausible at first glance, so she didn’t think of other possibilities.
In the meantime, Elio summoned a cloud with his fortune telling.
A pure white cloud made of spiritual energy gathered at a point at the end of the cliff.
Elio took Luna Mylus’ hand and climbed above the clouds.
The cloud carrying the two of them gently descended the cliff.
“It feels like I’m dreaming going down like this with you.”
“Would you like this to be a dream?”
“That’s natural. If you and Ji An were by my side when I woke up at the Seokgyeongjang, I would have no wish.”
“…”
Elio didn’t say anything.
I wanted to tell you that such a day would come, even if it was just empty words, but it was such an obvious lie that my mouth didn’t come out.
Meanwhile, the bottom of the valley came into view.
Feeling sorry for Elio, he hugged Luna Mylus.
Luna Mylus silently patted his back.
The cloud completely settled on the ground, but Elio wouldn’t let her go.
Paladin Almet Hareb couldn’t see it and let out a cough.
“Hum! hum!”
Only then did Elio release Luna Mylus from his arms.
Soon, the white clouds that had descended to the ground dissipated like mist.
Fabian, who was standing there with a puzzled face, greeted me with an exaggerated gesture like a clown.
“You are at last in the Valley of Skulls! Holy Lady!”
Then, Luna Mylus smiled and nodded her head in response.
After overcoming the awkwardness, Fabian took the lead again with Tynelock.
Baron Howard Solon, Crea Elio, Luna Mylus, Larva Count Omar, and the paladin Almet Hareb followed.
