Chapter 299

TL: Zimmings

I looked at the Duke of Grimoire in amazement.

“How did the duke know… Avoid it!”

While I was asking, an arrow flew from the man and I screamed.

Duke Grimoire twisted his body lightly to avoid arrows.

“I will explain later.”

After saying that, he looked at the man with a bow as if to indicate his opponent, and soon there was a barrier under the man’s feet.

Light was emitted from the barrier, and it soon changed into the shape of the monster’s snout, swallowing the man.

Crack.

I shuddered at the sound of something breaking and narrowed my shoulders.

At that moment, I felt a familiar energy in the sky above the deck.

It was a use of long-distance teleportation.

Another dazzling light spread, and those in black robes jumped out of the air.

Even if no one explained it, I thought I knew them.

‘The Fog of Grimoire.’

If Dubblede’s pride is Irie, Grimoire’s pride, which is on par with the holy knights of the temple, is the fog of Grimoire.

The masters of black magic arrived here.

In an instant, they surrounded the men and recited a spell.

The more they recited it, the more frustrated my heart became.

I’m short of breath as if my lungs were tightly clamped.

Beep!

A sharp sound crossed my mind, and my field of view narrowed.

It was as if my fear and anxiety had taken the form of blades and cut through my internal organs and brain.

‘Stop!’

Stop it.

Stop…!

At that time, Duke Grimoire covered my eyes with one hand.

The pain went away as if it was never there.

“This child is sensitive to power.”

His words subtly changed the mage’s spell, and there was no more pain.

Only when my blurred vision became clear again did the men appear in my view.

The blue veins protruding out seemed like they were about to burst, and the whites in their eyes were all blackened.

Lumps of fresh blood were dripping from their nose and mouth.

I got goosebumps all over my body.

I felt like my blood was getting cold, so I grabbed my sleeve tightly.

It seemed that I was not the only one who felt fear.

The sailors who were released by the men turned pale.

“Mo- monster… monsters…”

That’s true.

Those people, including the Duke of Grimoire, were really like monsters.

Their control and the power to subdue dozens of trained men at once, was terrifyingly perfect.

The reason I couldn’t use my magic to my heart’s content when I was being attacked by a monster was because of that Seveltium barrier.

The barrier surrounding the waters of Seveltium, a magical powerhouse, is labeled the world’s best.

It was sturdy, and above all, Seveltium was able to learn what magic was cast in the vicinity of the barrier through repeated independent research.

In other words, if I cast attack magic in Seveltium, it would be like a declaration of war.

‘If that happens, it’s a matter between countries.’

Not only our plan for independence would be disrupted, we also would suffer enormous damage before the war.

However, the fogs of Grimoire used such powerful magic, and completely controlled the mana from the limited area so that none of them escaped.

Even the Duke of Grimoire himself twisted the mana naturally like flowing water without even launching a barrier.

Now I understand the chairman’s words.

“How are you so gutsy Grimoire is a family that owns a magic tower.

Among them, there are countless people who have served as a mage, and the Duke of Grimoire himself is the greatest mage in this continent.”

‘I truly have a lot of guts!’

I opened my mouth when I saw the ship that was being organized in an instant.

***

The fogs saved Grimoire’s predecessor.

Those specializing in the attacking magic looked at him, and after a while, light returned to his eyes, which had been blurred.

The Duke of Grimoire, who was watching them, said.

“What kind of disgrace is this”

The predecessor touched his forehead with his palm and said.

“Damn it Christian.”

“Christian Did the pope come forward himself”

“Yes.”

Duke Grimoire burst into laughter.

“So, how did you end up here The title of the greatest magician of all time is a shame.”

“I didn’t just fall for it.

I hit him.”

“You’re lying.”

I took a big breath.

The reason why the pope was quiet even when the temple was in a tight spot may have been because he was affected by the battle against Grimoire.

But what’s even more surprising was that the gray-haired old man was not injured even after a one-on-one match with the pope.

‘He’s incredible.’

When I glanced at the predecessor from behind Duke Grimoire, he beckoned to me.

“What brought the child of fate here”

“Oh, this is our boat, Calosi.

I heard that an old man was on board, so I came to check because I was suspicious.”

“The child of fate must have come through teleportation.

Nicolai, what about you”

“I’m here through teleportation too.”

“You bought the items that Dubblede stopped distributing”

When asked by the predecessor, Duke Grimoire glanced at me and said,

“The Duke of Dubblede gave it to me.

He’s the one who gave us the coordinates.”

“…… What”

“Probably because he can’t kill his children’s maternal grandfather.”

Grimoire’s predecessor face hardened.

The same was true of me.

There is only one possibility why he said that.

Our mother, Lisette Dubblede, is the daughter of Grimoire’s predecessor.

After experiencing four lifetimes, I know I shouldn’t believe it hastily without evidence, but I keep thinking that it was strange.

Somehow, I could believe that the words of the Duke of Grimoire may be true.

And in front of me…… I thought that he might be our maternal grandfather.

The predecessor looked at Duke Grimoire with cold eyes.

“Hey, how could you do that to our enemy…”

“I had no choice but to find my father’s granddaughter.”

“Granddaughter”

“I’ve checked with Duke Dubblede.

Leblaine could use a life contract that is in the record of the first lord.

And…”

“… What did you say”

The Duke of Grimoire slowly pulled me.  He put me in front of him and slowly pulled my hair back.

A strange-looking spot that my father and older brothers used to make fun of on a daily basis was revealed.

The predecessor touched my neck with trembling hands.

Then, I felt a strange sense of stinging pain, and the mole turned into a strange form like a tattoo.

It became the pattern of the crescent moon, a pattern of the Duke Grimoire’s family.

The predecessor’s face was distorted.

The giant, who had dominated the world for nearly a century, looked fragile.

The predecessor looked at me with tearful eyes, and Duke Grimoire said,

“She’s her daughter, father.”

The surroundings became quiet.

Only the sound of the wind between the three of us was heard.

The predecessor said.

“Yes, how could I not know”

“…….”

“The eyes of the child I saw in the portrait were so similar.”

“…….”

The predecessor reached out to me.

His trembling fingertips touched me.

It was then.

Beep beep!

The sound crossed my head once again and a headache came again.

Gremory’s desperate voice was heard in my head.

[Hey, according to the contract with me, you can’t use your divine power… lifting the pledge…Hey!]

Her voice was distorted.

While I was losing consciousness, I think I had a funny thought.

‘This is why I shouldn’t sign a contract recklessly.

Damn it.’

I was thinking about it.

***

Leblaine was immediately moved to the Grimoire’s mansion.

Upon hearing the news, Duke Dubblede, Johann, and Henry rushed to visit.

Henry, who saw the sleeping Leblaine, asked.

“What happened”

“Her mana’s vent is blocked.”

Henry frowned at Duke of Grimoire’s words.

“So she’s now a normal person who can’t use divine power”

“No, it’s just the vent is blocked.

It seems to be the power of a devil.”

“Devil’s power”

“There’s someone who has seen her sign a contract with a devil on the ship.

Furthermore, I heard that it was called “Gremory.”

Why would she sign a contract with another devil

‘Is it that it was such an urgent situation that it was impossible to use the devil’

“Why…”

“Henry.”

“It’s always like this.

Leblaine is always in trouble, and there is nothing we can do.

This kid… what’s wrong with this child, her mother…!”

Johann’s eyes clouded when he saw his sister and couldn’t hold back his anger.

Johann looked at the Duke of Grimoire while holding Henry’s shoulder.

“I heard the rough story from my father.

The fact that our mother is of Grimoire bloodline.”

“…….”

“Please explain in detail.

Why did you abandon my mother and what is the blood vow told my father”

Duke Grimoire glanced at his predecessor.

The Duke of Grimoire glanced at his predecessor.  The predecessor was holding the hand of the sleeping Leblaine and staring at the child.

Duke of Grimoire said,

“I’ll explain it.

Sit down.”

When Duke Dubblede, Johann, and Henry sat in a chair near the bed, Duke Grimoire began to explain the situation.

He told them that the predecessor did not know of her existence until Lisette died.

The reason why Lisette has a life contract and the reason for not informing all of these facts.

After explaining everything about the relationship between Lisette and Grimoire, Duke Grimoire sighed.

“At first, I wanted to let you know, but my resentment was deeper.

Because you were the people who shared the wounds of losing Lisette, and at the same time, you were the bloodline of the Dubblede’s ancestors who killed Lisette.”

“…….”

“Above all else, we thought that the reason Theodore married Lisette was to use Shayman’s blood.”

“…….”

“No wonder I never saw her outside throughout their marriage, it’s like a confinement… Do you resent us for misunderstanding you.”

“I understand.

For resenting us.”

Theodore answered without hesitation.

Duke Grimoire smiled slightly.

Taking a deep breath, he continued the story again.

The first Grimoire has summoned a devil.  With its help, he made a life contract and laid the foundation for this family.”

“What kind of devil was it”

“Devil who has the power to see the future.”

Johann and Henry flinched and exchanged gazes.

Johann said to his father.

“Leblaine said that during the battle against the Kuhelm tribe, the devil of amethyst showed her the future.”

“There is a possibility that the devil summoned is the devil of amethyst”

“Under the circumstances.”

Duke Grimoire opened his mouth again.

“According to the records, the devil left a prediction just before it disappeared.

In Grimoire’s bloodline, there will be a child who will be able to use the tool.”

“…….”

“So he leaves this to the child who is born with the seal of the vow.”

Duke Grimoire took something out.

A dazzling emerald.

At the moment, Leblaine’s body twisted like having a seizure.

A strong vibration shook the floor as the Duke of Grimoire held the jewel.

“The first pillar and the devil of the beginning, Baal.”

The most powerful piece was placed on Leblaine’s chessboard.
