4 Episode 2. Days in Storm Castle (3)

"I'm not sure about that."

Jean answered in a calm voice.

"Don't you know?"

The theory lifted its head slightly. From the mouth of the youngest, who has been talking so clearly so far, I didn't expect to hear a story of ignorance.

"Yes, Father. I don't know how to call this power, not just because it's coming."

But this is a calculated number. Just a moment ago, as if you were deliberately producing childlike innocence.

in a blaze of anger

The sound of fireworks, and a handful of dark energy was generated on the palm of Qin. It was the force used to beat up the Tonya brothers.

The God of Shadow, the power gained by signing a contract with Soldert, the power of inspiration. Although he answered that he didn't know, Jean knew this power better than anyone else.

And the same goes for Siron, my father.

"If you don't mind, could you give me a name?"

Jean said with sparkling eyes.

Siron, after he rose to the level of self-reflection and became a creative knight... I couldn't keep my mouth shut for the first time.

"Solderette...….’

Si-ron, who was looking at Jean's hand, swallowed the sound of his voice.

Seriously, is this child reincarnation of the first family? Such sentimental questions passed through the mind of Siron.

Soldierlet, God of Shadow, a creature that all the wizards in the world longed for.

But Zion and Jin know the truth.

The fact that solderlet is more like the god of the sword, not the original magic. And the fact that he was a god who protected Looncandel 1,000 years ago by signing a contract with the first family.

'I thought you abandoned Looncandel after the invitation's death. You seem to be interested in the youngest.'

Is this a sign that Looncandel can take another leap forward and thrive?

Or is it just the God who left once just fickle for a moment? Seeing the swaying mass of shadow in the little grasp of his youngest son, Siron was lost in thought for a while.

It is clear that the contract has not been signed yet. If it's contract-based power, the youngest can't be unaware of course.’

Jean was looking at what Zion was thinking.

The expected situation was so perfect that I was almost anxious. At least once, I thought there would be a crisis caused by doubt, but I was at a good age to make up for the lies of seven years old.

"The youngest."

The opinion of the hour has sorted out one's thoughts.

"Yes, Father."

"That's the power of the god Soldert. I can't name it. He is one of the long secrets of our family."

"Solderet..."

"He cast a shadow on the world. Even if you're intelligent, it's still hard to understand."

"He is."

As Jean tried to ask questions, Ciron nodded.

"Is the god of soldert stronger than his father?"

"Huhhhhhh."

As if he had lost, Zion laughed in vain. After getting to the level of self-confidence, I never had to laugh like this.

In recent years, there has been a stir on the solid inner side of the theory, which has been ironed out only by training and refining.

"Well... I don't think this father would dare compete with God. I don't know."

A really arrogant answer, I don't know because I don't compete.

But the answer was none other than Siron Looncandel. Jean was thrilled to hear her father's answer.

The strongest on earth.

The housekeeper of the Zipple, Kellyak Zipple, will not be able to beat this man either.

Squeak.

Zion laughed, showing his teeth.

"The youngest, I'm glad I came to see you today. Your naive question has become another big topic for me. Thank you. Come closer."

Will we be able to win against God? Ciron described it as a hot topic.

When Jean got close, Zion stroked his head. Jean still had a mellow spirit on her palm until then.

"How do you want to use this force?"

"I want to use it for my family, Father."

I want to use it for me.

There is no need to make such an honest confession. In his previous life, Qin was only subjected to heaven and contempt from his family.

The warmth of the fence of family has never been experienced since the age of seven. There was no will left for Jin to pray for his family.

If he becomes a housekeeper someday, he might not know. Overwhelmed by the monstrous brothers.

"Hahahaha!"

Suddenly, the argument burst into laughter. A loud voice caused a small tremor throughout the storm.

The children of Siron, who were waiting outside, had no choice but to be startled. Because I've never seen my father laugh so hard lately.

Si-ron, who had been laughing for a long time, wiped his face and brought Jin close to his face.

"That's a funny lie. It's okay to tell this father a little more candidly.”

This is an unexpected situation. But Jean suppressed her bewildered heart and opened her mouth.

"Me."

"I want to use it for me.”

"Yes, you've beaten your brothers down with that power and left them in a downpour, and it's a lie for the sake of your family. I'll watch you in front of me."

Xiron passed through the camp and left the center hole. For a long time after his father's footsteps had disappeared, Jean had to feel a cold sweat running down her back.

It was a cold sweat of relief.

"Whoa!"

Jean gasped out her sweaty clothes. Looking back on all 28 years of my previous life, I have never faced my father as boldly as I do today.

'Okay, we did it!’

My heart was pounding as relief passed.

Through today's conversation, Qin gained the freedom to use the power of solderlet, and gave his father expectations.

"In my previous life, I died shortly after signing a contract, and I never imagined what my father expected from me.’

At that time, even after being expelled from the family, there was no freedom to use the power of solderlet at will.

Looncandel is a place where those who leave their families will never allow them to take power.

That's why he was training in the kingdom of Akin. Akin was a country of the Rutero Magical Union under the influence of Zipple, and Jean was a wizard at the time.

The long secret of the family, the contract of the first family and the solderlet.

It was something that I already knew in my previous life. Though Ciron only described it as a "old secret," Chin knew the inside story in more detail than Ciron.

After the contract, it's only natural that I heard it directly from Solderlet. Solderlet used to talk to Jean like a friend for a while after the contract.

'But he never told me why he, the sword god, left Looncandel and became the wizard god. I wasn't involved when I died.'

And now that Jean has returned, Solderlet has no words.

Jean thinks her return may be due to the power of solderlet, but it was only a guess.

After the return, it was at the age of one that first realized that the power gained by the contract was valid.

It was shortly after choosing a barissada from "choice."

That night, a nine-star wizard's curse. 'The widow of the wing' struck the gin in the cradle. The same thing has been repeated in both previous and present life.

[Signer, you must have hated someone when you were very young. You've been under a lot of pressure because of a small curse. Maybe that's why I was attracted to you.]

What Soldert said to Jean upon signing the contract.

Chin recalled the words and saw clearly the red curse of climbing the cradle. The mind is intact, but the body of a year-old could not stop the curse.

A helpless young man's body is resentful, and he can't resist or ask for help as the curse hits him before his eyes.

Suddenly, the power of solderlet was expressed.

The curse's host could not reach Jean's body, and it permeated his shadow and died away.

No curses will work on Soldier's Contractor. It was an "excessively fraudulent" effect, borrowing the expression of a previous life's magic teacher.

'Grow a little bit more. I'll find out who cursed me, and I'll kill you.’

The power to handle shadows, the magical knowledge accumulated in previous life, and the state of the sword, which began to be awakened late, remain vividly.

A completely different future was bound to unfold from those days when they lost their talents due to curses and were kicked out of their families.

"Lord."

"Gilly nanny."

Looking back, Gilly was standing at the entrance to the center hall.

"The housekeeper is dying. Please say hello."

"Yes, I see."

"By the way... ...are you all right?"

asked Gilly with a worried look.

The Tonya brothers, who met Siron earlier than Jean, asked because they saw their faces turn white and go back to their rooms.

"It's all right. Are all your sisters going back?”

"Yes, because you're here to perform the family song. And Lady Mary left a gift for you."

"I'll untie your gift later. Let's go see my father off first."

More than two hundred guardian knights, and the riders of Looncandel.

And Zion began to leave the storm. As soon as they left, the castle would be a lonely and empty landscape again, and Jean would now be able to spend a quiet time without caring about the Tonya brothers.

A time of quiet growth that no one knows.

"Chung!"

Guardian knights censored the theory of storming. The Jin and Tonya brothers also stood beside them and bowed their heads.

The next time I see my father, he'll be home, not stormy.’

Ciron went back to the Black Sea.

The public, who expected the movement of Siron to lead to the blood war between Luncandel and Jipple, were to be disappointed, and the riders and guardian knights of Luncandel returned to their respective positions.

Since then, Ciron has not visited the site until Qin left the storm. Instead, the guardian knight, Khan, occasionally visited the Black Sea to inform Jin of his recent status.

'Mary's sister's out of her mind. I'm still seven years old....hahaha. I never thought I'd get this!’

When Jin returned to the room and opened Mary's gift, thought, Gilly, who checked the gift together, turned pale and covered Jean's eyes.

What Mary left as a gift was the heart of the Zipple's summoner, who she recently shot on the southern continent.

The heart of the phoenix, a precious gift that has never been received before.

It meant to eat well and grow healthy.
