Chapter 134
Episode 134. Maximin Cronell and
the energy that overwhelms the interview crowd?
There was no such thing.
Maximin Cronell was just silent.
But people couldn’t even think of moving carelessly.
‘The strongest swordsman.’
It’s simple, but there was no modifier that could describe him better.
It is sometimes called a living disaster, but that only comes from the fact that he acts without caring about the public eye, and it is not enough to explain him.
“I came to see you, Evan.”
“You mean me?”
Evan smiled and gave off a relaxed atmosphere.
However, I couldn’t stop the feelings hidden deep inside from raising my head.
‘her!’
I laughed out loud, but I couldn’t help it.
A feeling I tried to forget.
it was horror
“Looks like I came on time.”
Maximin looked around and said.
With each action, Jeffrey felt his body flinch involuntarily and his face reddened.
“Izaman Maximin has something to settle with us. Won’t you please yield?”
“Are you senile, old man?”
Chi trembled at the sudden insult, but couldn’t get angry.
That’s because the element of force in this era was absolute.
“If it bothers me, I’ll just cut it.”
“Um… … .”
At Maximin’s words, Jeffrey eventually took a step back.
As a person who doesn’t know where to go, it was a retreat for now.
He tried to defend himself saying that pursuing Evan was always possible, and ordered his subordinates from the Holy Land to follow him.
“Retreat at once.”
Then, the subordinates showed signs of relief and disappeared in an instant.
“Don’t worry, Evan.”
“You are welcome anytime. Anyway, you can’t see the other one. Did you fight?”
“joy! I don’t know.”
As soon as Jeffrey disappeared, only Maximin and Evan, carrying the coffin, remained on the road, creating silence.
Evan didn’t know that he would ever meet Maximin again, so he wondered why he came.
“Now tell me about your business.”
When Evan asked with a smile on his face, Maximin nodded.
“Evan, I heard that you, who were so crazy about God, left Holy Land.”
“Are you curious about that? I was just being faithful. It was rather you who were crazy.”
“Are you kidding me? The one I am looking for is the real God, not the fake you believe in.”
“Anyway, I get it. It looks like you’re in a hurry. If you have to come all the way to me and ask about things that aren’t poetic like that.”
“yes. It must be old. Anything is fine, so I hope there is an answer I want.”
It was a maxim citizen who looked only in his 30s, but his actual age was over 60.
“So what is the answer?”
“I still believe in the existence of God. But I admit that what you said earlier was right.”
“That means I no longer believe in the god of the Holy Land. Why did you change your mind?”
“Because I met the real God.”
At Evan’s words, Maximin’s calm eyes rippled.
He tried to open his dry lips again to say something, but no sound came out.
“No, I will be precise. I didn’t meet him in person, but I was there with the person I met.”
“You mean the ancient god, right?”
“That’s right. You were right.”
Evan raised his gaze to the sky and looked at the bright sun.
That dazzling light made Evan remember the situation at that time.
A holy light that casts out all darkness.
A brilliance that could not be compared to his own aura.
“You are indeed right. God wasn’t perfect. No, it might be perfect. It might just not be understood through the eyes of a human like me.”
“Looks like we really met.”
“I was trapped in God’s land. It was not me who met God there, but my party.”
my king
Evan muttered quietly.
“Can you tell me where it is?”
“I can tell you, but I won’t have what you want. It’s already over.”
“Is it over?”
“It literally is no longer God’s land. As we got out, the power of God ended.”
At Evan’s words, Maximin thought for a moment.
It was the first time he had seen him agitated, so Evan just watched with a fresh feeling.
“What the hell happened?”
Knowing the desperation of his opponent, Evan didn’t feel the need to hide it.
In the first place, he hadn’t met God himself, so there wasn’t much to talk about.
“I experienced a city where time repeats itself. And I could see that it was the power of God.”
He didn’t say who he was with.
He just gave a rough outline of the strange city he had been through and what had happened in it.
“Lethe… … .”
Maximin muttered.
I didn’t know that Evan, who believed in fakes, would find the god he was looking for so much.
‘Is it fate?’
But he was determined to defy his fate.
Rather, it may be that the search for small clues intertwined and obtained this information from Evan.
“Evan, I have a request.”
“I can tell you the location without any hesitation.”
“That’s not it. Can you tell me who has had a conversation with the god you speak of?”
Evan hesitated at the unexpected request.
There was no way I could trust and inform Maximin.
He was the Gaechaban who would destroy everything if he was wrong.
Although they say he has become much calmer now compared to before, his career at that time did not go anywhere.
Maximin, noticing Evan’s concern, said.
“I know what you are worried about. But don’t promise I will not harm the person you are talking about.”
“Are you saying I believe you?”
It was too dangerous to trust him.
Will he, who doesn’t care about public opinion, keep his promise?
“I promise Isabel. please.”
Evan was surprised by Maximin’s oath and earnestness.
Evan, who already knew what purpose he was wandering about in a past quarrel, didn’t think that was a lie.
As long as he talked about Isabelle, he would kneel even if asked to do so right now.
It is the only weakness and injustice that exists in the strongest warriors.
“If you say so… … All right.”
Evan nodded his head with difficulty.
Having said that, there was not enough reason to refuse.
‘I can’t tell you about Luna.’
The culprit who killed Eve Millenium is none other than Maximin.
There’s no way Luna, who is commanding her soul, doesn’t know that.
Even though Maximin swore not to harm him, Luna, apart from him, has a flipped eye and is likely to attack him. In that case, no matter how much he swore an oath, Maximin would not stand still.
‘Then to the king… … .’
Rather, the thought that it went well crossed Evan’s mind.
‘The great king will be able to influence even Maximin.’
If you are a king with a brilliant light, you will use even this ordeal as your foundation.
He was the king and the light that would save the world.
“Go to Adrias Cromwell. I will lead you to the path of salvation.”

It is not stars that decorate the sky, but a magic circle.
Numerous magic circles filled the night sky and shimmered with dreamy colors.
Portrion, the city of wizards.
This place, which is surrounded by powerful magic and mystery, held an annual festival to honor Nivas, a great wizard who spread the existence of magic to the world.
Although it was called a festival, entry without an invitation was not allowed, and even an invitation was not given to anyone, so it was considered a great honor for wizards to participate in the Nivas Festival.
“Bahat? What are you looking at?”
It can be said that it is only natural that Bahat Alven, who is one of the 10 people on the continent, will be invited to this festival.
Invitations were sent every year, but Bahat, who was afraid to participate every other year, participated in the Nivas Festival this year.
He attended the festival to have an affair, and was checking his tablet at the dinner party in Mulnora, where only famous wizards gathered among those invited to the festival.
“Academy work.”
“oh my. Do you come all the way here to work? You are really suffering.”
“I didn’t want to check it either, but something funny happened. Hehe.”
“Oh that’s interesting. Could you please let me know?”
“doesn’t exist! So get out of here.”
Bahat shouted eccentrically, so the person who spoke just smiled bitterly and backed away.
Bahat’s eccentric temper was already famous enough to be known by everyone here.
When the uninvited guest disappeared, Bahat checked the tablet again.
A mysterious incident that occurred while he was away.
The tablet documented the course of the event, its outline, and its conclusion.
‘The body of an unidentified monster found in the forest of golden foliage, and the body of Karon Diplan found across the street. There are traces of summoning the undead and traces of powerful magic in the surrounding area.’
The report clearly showed that there were traces of Charon as well as traces of others, but the conclusion was written that it was not certain.
“joy. I haven’t figured out anything right.”
The academy found out through various traces that Charon was a necromancer, but decided not to announce it.
Since he had already suffered from measles as Kyler, Charon instead transformed into a great man who gave his life for the academy.
This was possible because no one knew the details of the incident.
“This is why politics is… … .”
Still, it was an understandable decision.
It was clear that if Karon Diplan was revealed to have been a warlock right away, it would harm quite a few people.
Perhaps Bahat did not simply suffer and stop, but there was also a high probability that he would have to take a fairly large responsibility and step down from his position as the owner of the Mage.
“Anyway, it’s the traces of another person. Is the man who killed Payat Kobon still at the academy?”
Payat Cobon, an official of the Zefar Church, who tried to cause terror.
It was quite a shock even for Bahat that someone who had skills comparable to an Aura Master died without even being able to resist.
Of course, you have to go and compare the traces to come to a conclusion, but Bahat’s intuition put weight on the possibility that the person who intervened in this case was the same person who killed Payat Cobon.
“There’s something in the academy that I don’t know about. I’m sorry.”
A smile was drawn on the corner of Bahat’s mouth as he spoke to himself.

Richard and Dexter were sitting in the club room looking nervous.
Not only the two of them, but all the newspaper members were gathered in the clubroom.
They were preparing something for a long time, arranging chairs or something, and one of them shouted at Dexter.
“How many did you say?”
“Eleven people!”
When Dexter shouted, the person who spoke to him nodded and prepared a seat.
As Richard watched this nervously, Kram, the head of the newspaper department, laughed.
“Why are you looking so anxious when I told you to rest?”
“That’s why the seniors are working, but we, the youngest, just watch like this… … .”
“You guys have already brought us great plans, so we have to do this much. I never thought that I would gather all the promising players and interview them. I’ve tried going to each individual and interviewing them.”
Richard smiled proudly at Kram’s praise, and Dexter was embarrassed.
Looking at the two, Kram asked what he was curious about.
“But it is. Why did I say this, but how did Adrias convince you?”
“Ah, that’s Adrias-senpai… … .”
Then there was a quiet knock on the room door.
“yes! Come on in!”
The door opened and someone appeared.
And seeing the person who appeared, the members speeded up their preparations.
“ah! Welcome Miss Vivian. You are here early.”
Kram stopped the conversation and hurriedly guided her.
Vivian looked around for a while, seemed to be looking for something, and then, after being guided by Kram, headed to the waiting room attached to the club room.
After Vivian, interview invitees gathered one after another.
By the time the preparations for the interview were over, most of the people had gathered.
“Didn’t Adrias-senpai come?”
“You should be back soon. Because there is still time.”
“Isn’t that breaking etiquette? Where is the person who comes right on time these days?”
In the waiting room, only the voices of the third year students of the Faculty of Engineering echoed.
The first year trio kept silent because it was the place where the seniors were present, and the rest of the characters were not so talkative, so they just stayed quiet.
“I’m a good person, so I’ll take care of it.”
“If you look good, how good are you? To be honest, if it wasn’t for the Tower of Modras, I wouldn’t be a person who would have risen like that.”
“That’s right. Honestly, if I enter the Tower of Modras now, I’ll be able to break it easily, right?”
At that time, Lucia, who had been quietly listening, said a word.
“It’s too loud for what I was talking about. You are not the only ones here, so please talk about unpleasant things quietly.”
“what? Is it because it’s the same magic department as Hi-Go?”
“I don’t care what you think. It’s just noisy, so I’m telling you to shut up.”
“Are you messing with us right now? Only for the Faculty of Magic?”
There were a total of 4 students in the 3rd year of the Faculty of Engineering.
Called the Four Heavenly Kings a bit childishly, they glared at Lucia with their eyes wide open.
“Only the Faculty of Magic?”
Then, as if she couldn’t just hear it, Diene ignited her twin wicks.
The fearless 3rd year students of the Faculty of Engineering raised their heads towards her.
“why? is that wrong? Everyone knows that the Faculty of Magic is weak compared to the Faculty of Knights.”
“Don’t you know who I am?”
“Of course I know. I know that you won the tournament. But that’s because you’re unique, aren’t all the other Magic Faculty students like that? Am I wrong?”
They had high self-esteem as they were called promising players.
Aside from her voice getting louder and louder, Vivian just stared at the door, dazed as if she couldn’t hear what was going on.
Bella Houston, one of the Four Heavenly Kings, stood up and looked down at Lucia.
“Good. Let’s see who’s stronger in this Kim then? You’re not afraid now, are you Lucia Everlast? They are in the same grade as us.”
“joy. I’m not stupid enough to fall for such cheap provocations.”
“I was scared.”
“I wasn’t scared.”
“Ah, I was scared.”
As the atmosphere grew more and more intense, Louis eventually stepped out.
“Those seniors. We didn’t come here to make friends, but we didn’t come here to fight, so calm down a bit… … .”
“What are you? Cheeky on the subject of first grade. Sit down and don’t interrupt.”
“Seniors.”
“What? don’t you listen? If you intervene, the atmosphere gets worse. know?”
The opponent was right.
Serena, realizing that intervening for no reason would only make the atmosphere worse, hurriedly pulled Louis by the collar.
In the end, Louis couldn’t help but sit down again at the touch.
“It’s a complete mess these days. I need to re-educate the kids.”
“I know. The kids below are like that, so they look down on us even in the Faculty of Magic.”
“Please stop it. I will not put up with it any longer.”
Diene’s eyes lit up.
However, the 3rd graders rather snorted and said.
“Don’t hold back. because it’s not good for you hey good I’ve always wondered what kind of skill the winner of that great tournament would be, can we have a look?”
Laughter breaks out among the 3rd graders, and Diene, unable to bear the insult, tries to stand up.
jump.
The door opened and someone came in.
It was Adrias Cromwell, who arrived just in time.
“Adrias!”
Vivian stood up and greeted me warmly.
Adrias nodded lightly and looked around.
Those whose gaze touched them felt a peculiar pressure.
‘what? what the hell is this… … .’
Louis, who saw Adrias for the first time after vacation, felt breathless from a different pressure than before.
A sense of presence that has grown to the point where it makes no sense compared to before.
The feeling was similar to standing in front of a predator.
‘no way… … Aura Master?’
no it couldn’t be
There was no way that Adrias, who was only in his early twenties, had already reached Aura Master.
But what is this aura? What the hell happened during vacation?
The Four Heavenly Kings of the Faculty of Knights also became a match from the moment Adrias entered.
Those light mouths didn’t open like they were glued for some reason.
Lucia greeted me as if she had just arrived.
“Is the senior here?”
“uh.”
He nodded and greeted Diene.
“Good afternoon Diane.”
“Yes.”
There was something different about Adrias when they met normally and Adrias who met in a public place like this. Diene awkwardly nodded at the unknown change and accepted the greeting.
“The atmosphere is strange.”
Adrias, who was checking the surroundings, said.
His head, which had been turning as if overpowering the crowd, finally stopped.
“It was a little noisy before entering the room. What happened?”
His gaze was directed directly at the 3rd year of the Faculty of Engineering.
