    Episode 244

    “Arina?”

    Princess Arina who was in the territory of the Duchy of Troy was waiting for Zeke in her mansion.

    He approached Arina in surprise.

    “What are you doing here Ariana?”

    Arina smiled and said to Zeke.

    “I came here because I wanted to see Sir Zeke’s face and also to ask a favor.”

    “Please?”

    Arina pushed someone standing next to her towards Zig.

    When the hood that had been covering his face was removed the boy’s face appeared.

    Zeke was startled when he saw the boy’s face.

    “What about that guy?”

    It was Sion a member of the Nostra Family’s special bloodline ability user Six whom he had captured and entrusted to Arina.

    Zion looked at Zeke with a disgruntled expression and spoke to Arina.

    “Arina! Do you know how much that guy hurt me last time? He paralyzed me and then beat me with lightning!”

    Then Arina said with a stern expression.

    “Oh Zion! I told you. Always be polite.”

    Then Zion nodded his expression quickly turning pale.

    “I’m so sorry Arina.”

    Zeke was embarrassed when he saw Zion like that.

    ‘Surely not Arina. Did you tame that mafia guy?’

    The Zion he remembers was one who used her bloodline powers to recklessly wreak havoc on the battlefield.

    On the outside he looked like an ordinary boy but in reality he was a heartless mafia fighter.

    Seeing Zion clinging to Arina like a gentle puppy Zeke couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.

    At that moment the other figure behind Arina also took off his hood and revealed his face. Zeke was surprised once again when he saw his face.

    “That night killer?”

    It was Night Killer Aren who was captured by Zeke in the Ghost Mansion.

    Aaron also spoke to Arina wary of Zeke.

    “Lady Arina the thing you should not trust the most in the world is Drake. He will do vile things anytime and anywhere with the face of a knight….”

    Woohoo!

    At that moment a white halo of light floated around Arina’s body.

    It looked very beautiful on the outside but the moment they saw it Zion and Ayran’s faces turned pale.

    As Arina stared at them with a halo of light floating around both of them hesitated and didn’t know what to do.

    Zeke looked at the three of them with an interested expression.

    ‘I felt it when I was on Dario’s train but Arina you have a knack for handling people.’

    As Zion and Aeron became quiet Arina cleared her halo.

    Then she smiled again and said to Zeke.

    “It’s none other than these two people who need Sir Zeke’s treatment.”

    “If it’s my treatment… recovery?”

    Arina engraved ‘Recovery’ one of the healing light magics on the jewel sword Roland that Zeke had entrusted to her.

    Thanks to receiving the Recovery engraved Roland through Clone I was able to return the brainwashed fish people to their original state.

    Arina nodded.

    “That’s right. As I said back then Zion’s health is getting worse and Aeron also has a gold medal in his body.”

    “It’s forbidden?”

    “I sealed it with magic but if I had left it like that Eiren’s head would have exploded and he would have died.”

    It was Arina who made terrible noises without any concern.

    Zig had seen so many of the Abyss’ hordes die from the effects of gold that he immediately understood what Arina was talking about.

    After hearing Arina’s words Zeke turned his gaze towards Zion and Aeran.

    Zion growled at Zeke like a vicious puppy while keeping an eye on Arina and Aeron also looked at him with a wary gaze.

    Zeke looked at the two with a displeased expression and then nodded.

    “Okay I guess I’ll have to check the condition first.”

    Zeke took Zion and Aeren to his personal training ground with Arina.

    Arina had the two sit on the floor of the training grounds as if she was taming disobedient dogs.

    Zeke opened his eyes and examined the physical condition of Zion and Ayran.

    When I looked closely things I had not seen before came into view.

    ‘Zion’s body is completely soaked in drugs. Even if he is treated with recovery he will need continuous drug treatment.’

    Zeke turned his gaze to examine Aaron’s body and was startled.

    Because a parasite was attached to Aaron’s brain and was writhing.

    It seemed like this was probably the gold that Arina was talking about.

    ‘The Siemens madmen brainwashed us and then planted parasites in us?’

    Now I clearly understand why I couldn’t capture the Night Killers in my previous life and why they committed suicide even if I did.

    After thinking about it for a while Zeke closed his eyes and spoke to Arina.

    “It’s not an easy situation for either of us.”

    “There is no one on the continent who can treat those two except Sir Zeke.”

    Zik nodded after thinking about it.

    “Okay I’ll get started on the treatment right away. Arina please leave for a moment.”

    He sent Arina out and closed the training room door.

    Outside the training grounds Arina held her hands together in a devout manner and prayed to the Creator who had brought about the primordial light.

    After a while a light flashed inside the training ground.

    “Kkaaaaaaah!”

    Lights continued to flash and screams as if they were being tortured by guards from hell could be heard coming from inside the training grounds.

    It sounded like she was in terrible pain but Arina smiled and felt relieved when she heard it.

    ‘Thank goodness the treatment is going well.’

    After several hours the screams died down and only then did the training ground doors open.

    “Zeke said poking his head through the door.

    “It’s all done.”

    Arina went inside the training grounds to check the inside. Zion and Aeren were lying on the floor of the training grounds with pale faces as if they had been completely revived from the dead.

    She placed her hands on the bodies of the fallen men felt their energy then looked at Zeke with a surprised face.

    “My goodness Sir Zeke. How did you heal in such a short time? This is truly a miracle!”

    “Thanks to the recovery that Ariana engraved for me.”

    Zion and Aeron suffered for hours of pain they never wanted to experience again but ultimately survived.

    After Zeke finished checking on Arina he sent them both into their rooms to recover then went out to the living room and had tea with Arina.

    Zeke asked her.

    “Arina how on earth did you tame those guys?”

    Then Arina shook her head.

    “Sir Zeke. The word ‘taming’ does not suit a person. I only cherished the hearts of Zion and Eiren.”

    When he saw the two of them trembling it seemed like they were not simply holding each other’s hearts but Zeke let it slide for now.

    “Actually I brought them here to interrogate them.”

    “Then you have achieved your goal. Zion and Aeron have become members of the Rose Knights and they will gladly assist Sir Zeke.”

    Zeke pressed his temples as he looked at Arina’s bright smile.

    “Arina those two are quite dangerous people. We don’t know when they might betray us.”

    “The primordial light illuminates and brings peace to everything that exists in the phenomenal world. That is why the believers of light always teach each other to love everyone.”

    As Zeke listened to Arina’s words he thought of Clone wielding a shining mace.

    ‘…Is that love?’

    At that moment Arina’s eyes turned sharp.

    “But that doesn’t mean we should think that the primordial light will always be kind. According to the Bible it was the primordial light that destroyed the corrupted city in seven days.”

    She said smiling at Zeke.

    “Don’t worry if you two betray each other you will pay the price.”

    Zeke felt the aura of intimidation emanating from Princess Arina.

    ‘…I think I was more scared of Arina than the Nostra Family or Siemens.’

    Anyway since Princess Arina had accepted them as her knights Zeke couldn’t say anything more.

    Zick nodded and said.

    “If that’s what Lady Arina has decided I won’t say anything else. Aeren will be able to move as before soon after recovering but the situation is a bit different for Zion.”

    He continued speaking slowly.

    “You will need to take the medicine consistently and it will probably be difficult for you to use your blood system abilities to the same extent as before. If you try to use your abilities too forcefully the balance of your body that you have worked so hard to maintain will be broken so please be careful Arina.”

    “Okay thank you Sir Zeke. If you need anything else just let me know.”

    As Zeke was about to finish his story he heard Arina’s words and remembered something.

    “By the way I have a favor to ask of you Arina.”

    “What is it?”

    “Could you lead the Knights of the Rose to an island in the South Sea?”

    Zeke began by telling the story of Peter Pan and the Fishmen and explained the plan he had received from Carly to colonize the islands in the South Seas.

    “I plan to develop the islands of the South Sea and create a transit point connecting the Central Continent and the Southern Continent.”

    Arina was shocked when she heard everything from Zeke.

    “I don’t know much about the situation in the South Sea but… I thought the Sea of ​​Death where the islands in the South Sea are located was so rough that it was difficult for trade ships to pass through. Isn’t that right?”

    Zeke nodded and answered.

    “Arina is right. It used to be that way but not anymore. The Dead Sea has stabilized and a closer sea route to the Southern Continent has opened up.”

    “Really? How could that be….”

    “It’s difficult to give you the specifics but there will be major changes in the South Sea and the Southern Continent.”

    Arina nodded at Zeke’s words.

    “I will believe what Sir Zeke says. I will send the Rose Knights to help the fish people.”

    “Thank you so much for your willingness to help Arina.”

    “Don’t worry. It’s about saving persecuted races and pioneering unknown territories.”

    Zeke nodded and said.

    “Good. Since it’s still an unexplored area there will be all kinds of monsters taking up residence there. Take Rick and his party who are adventurers with you and use them as you wish.”

    “That’s a nice thing to hear. I understand.”

    Zick concluded his conversation saying he would deliver the details separately.

    Arina headed to Zion and Ayran to check on their condition again while Zeke also went up to his room to prepare for what to do next.

    All that was left for Zeke to do was stand in front of the mirror with his storybook in hand and call out to the hermit of the story.

    “Is this the right way to do it?”

    Zeke stood there looking embarrassed and spoke to the mirror.

    “I am… Zeke Draker Hermit.”

    I waited for a while hoping something would happen but as expected there was no response.

    Zeke threw down the storybook in embarrassment and sat down on the soft chair.

    As Zeke grumbled and looked at a book that had fallen nearby he realized that the storybook he had accidentally picked up was none other than the one about King Caesar the hero.

    The tale of King Caesar and his loyal Clocktower Knights was one of the most popular storybook subjects.

    ‘King Hero Caesar. Homunculus.’

    Zeke remembered what the Dark Elf Captain had said earlier in the Upside Down Tower.

    [Kaisir what do you mean by that cursed war machine being the King of Heroes?]

    At that time I couldn’t understand what that meant.

    But after hearing Poseidon’s words I finally understood what it meant.

    The real King of Heroes Caesar left for the Fairy World and the Great Sage joined forces with the dragons to fill his empty spot and created a ‘Homunculus’ in the likeness of the King of Heroes.

    To stop the Demon King who descended into Siemens Apollyon’s body.

    ‘A golem imbued with the power of the King of Heroes? I can’t even imagine it.’

    The hero Tyr said that the power of the King of Heroes was such that even dragons trembled.

    Even though it wasn’t his power the homunculus that contained some of his power was defeated by the Demon King so we can see that the Demon King’s power is also enormous.

    ‘What would happen if the real Demon King were to be resurrected in this era?’

    It felt unrealistic that a demon king who only appeared in storybooks suddenly appeared in reality.

    That was when.

    “Did you call me?”

    Zig raised his head at the familiar voice. The hermit of the story was standing in front of him with a tired face.
