Chapter 359 - Episode Six - A Certain Fire Country's Evil Omen (6)(Side: Rimud)

A huge, flaming shield is thrust out, collapsing the wall as it advances toward Jeem.

Jeem smashes the wall and escapes from the shield by going into the hole.

A huge, flaming sword flashes through the wall that Jeem had escaped from.

A huge line appeared on the wall, which shifted and fell to the floor, causing the entire ceiling to collapse.

At the same time, the corridors of the palace finally couldn’t bear the weight of the upper levels, and a part of the Mahala Laol Palace began to collapse.

Rimud sent his flaming sword to pursue Jeem, brought his shield back to his side for protection, and left the crumbling passage.

Shifting from place to place, the battle between Rimud and Jeem continued.

Swords sliced through the palace walls, aiming for Jeem.

Jeem sits on the flaming sword, hiding his appearance, and tries to get closer to Rimud.

However, he was unable to get past the combination of the flaming sword, flaming bullets and the burning circular shield.

One by one, every part of the palace was being destroyed.

When they finally moved the stage to the rooftop of Mahala Laol Palace, the interior of the palace was already 80% destroyed.

Rimud’s flaming bullets, flaming swords, and flaming circular shields flew across the top of the palace.

Jeem, who was no longer limited by the confines of the palace, continued to toy with Rimud, moving as if he were flying at will.

At last, however, Jeem failed to avoid it.

A flaming sword sliced through his leg from the knee down. Jeem’s leg, which had flown in the air, became charred and disappeared.

Jeem lost his balance when he landed and fell to the ground.

“Ngh, guh …… I, I got!”

“Burn down, Jeeeeeeeeeeemmm!”

Rimud shouted and raised his golden staff to the sky.

From the sky above, a circular shield covered in flames is pressed against Jeem.

In the afterimage of the flames, it was as if a pillar of flames was falling from the sky.

“You leg your guard down, Lord Rimud.”

He quickly rolled his body to the side, jumped up, and headed for Rimud at a speed that could not be followed by the eyes.

It’s the fastest move of the battle, even though his legs had just fallen off and he was mortally wounded.

It was the fastest movement of the battle. Rimud’s eyes could not even see how he was running.

“Wha-……! Flame ……”

Rimud immediately let go of his golden staff and pointed his left index finger at Jeem.

In order to protect himself, Rimud had placed a ring on his finger, a medium for quick-acting magic.

However, the fatigue from the battle so far and the carelessness of trying to make a decisive move slowed him down slightly.

The biggest mistake he made was to use his sword and shield at the same time in a hasty attempt to finish off Jeem.

Jeem’s body spun vertically.

His toes kicked Rimud in the wrist.

“Agh ……!”

His wrist snapped and he was lifted into the air.

Jeem jumped up, grabbed Rimud by the neck, and pushed him down to the ground.

Rimud raised his head and stared at Jeem’s legs.

“Wha-, how ……?”

The leg that should have been cut off was growing back.

I stared at the location where Jeem’s foot had fallen, but since it had originally been burned, I couldn’t tell which was which.

I can’t even tell if I misjudged it, hallucinated it, or if it was regenerated by some kind of magic.

“I am sorry for your loss, Lord Rimud.”

“So this is it …… You …… you are not from the Maharaun Kingdom! When did this happen? Since when did you switch places with Jeem! What is your purpose?”

“It’s not correct to say that I’ve switched places with Jeem …… But, if I may say so …… it was about three hundred years ago.”

“What ……?”

“Do you still not understand after all this? I have replaced the Five Grand Masters of that time.”

When Rimud heard this, his eyes widened.

“Y-You, don’t tell me ……!”

“Ha!”

The opposite hand that Jeem used to hold his neck, he slammed his palm into Rimmed’s stomach.

He bleeds out, and the head he was holding up hangs to the ceiling.

Jeem looks down at Rimud’s face, laughs, and leaves him.

His face, which is covered with veins from “Gouma”, returns to human form.

“I’m going to execute him at some point and use him to incite the people. If we are going to keep him alive for a long time, we must devise a prison …… so that the other Five Grand Masters will not escape.”

Jeem exhaled, shaking his head from side to side and snapping it.

He then turned his head to look behind him.

“But …… it has taken me much longer than I expected. If you are watching, you could have helped me. You are a rare genius sorcerer, Gillemeim-dono.”

In the distance, just beyond Jeem’s line of sight, there was a figure floating in the air.

A slender young man with green hair cowered expressionlessly as he met Jeem’s gaze.

“Please don’t use that name. In this day and age, I’m just a humble, traveling merchant.”

“…… And here we are, as you can see. I’ll leave it to the Five Grand Masters to deal with it and wait for things to settle down …… What about the research you’ve been conducting in secret with the Earth God’s Church in the Galshard Kingdom, using orphans? Even if it can’t be used as a sorcerer yet, it can serve as a substitute for a magic stone, right?”

“I’ve said it many times before, but that stuff is just for fun. Besides, it can’t be done in a year or so. It’s not my policy to talk before the data is available. I don’t want people to make arbitrary judgments based on biased results. There are many unclear points, so even if the research makes rapid progress, it is unlikely that we will move the Moon Festival Dinmae in the early stages. At present, we don’t need that much excess strength.”

“Mm …… you’re talking too hard.”

“In any case, you should keep your eyes only on the Maharaun Kingdom. We’ve gone to all this trouble to get this country to do as you wish, but if you can’t move, things will be stagnant for a while. Even so, we just lost the Riveras Kingdom ……”

“Well, it wouldn’t have mattered if there was a country like that or not. It was a loss that we couldn’t hit Kudor with the Dragon Vein, but the Marren tribe greatly reduced Kudor’s power, didn’t they? There’s nothing to worry about.”

The young man let out a sigh.

“Please don’t do anything unnecessary just because you have more time. Especially since the Marren is not under your jurisdiction.”

“I understand. Geez, you really are very careful.”

Jeem smiles wickedly at the ugly old man as he replies
