9th Circle Lord

85 #85화 Earl of New Year2

I don't have good feelings, but they are not nobles who will move according to Luther's

The finance minister spoke sternly.

"We cannot guarantee that your condition is completely better yet, so we must remain in the palace to support you."

The nobles answered in unison.

"That's right. You can't send a brilliant healer outside, yet you don't even know who your enemy is after the Emperor's assassination.”

"Of course you have to stay. The Empire can take their revenge."

Opposition from the nobles is strong.

Luther looked at the evil spirit.

The evil spirit standing behind the emperor coughed in vain and expressed opposition to the opinions of the nobles.

"He is an excellent healer wizard and also an eight-circle cannabis. Why don't you take this opportunity to raise the reputation of the Emperor by destroying the notorious pirate den?"

The nobles were furious when the evil spirit supported Luther.

"Sir Austin, what matters now is not pirates on the east coast, but the Emperor's safety."

"The pirates have prevented the East Coast from developing into a port city so far. Now we have to work on the East. Besides, we have enough men to support the Emperor. Now is not the time for safety, but for revenge."

The emperor showed interest in the tone of the evil spirit.

"Revenge? Did you know who it is?"

"I don't know who it is, but it has broken through the palace guard to the deepest point of His Majesty's residence. If you don't know what's going on inside, it's impossible."

"Well, I see."

The emperor's expression became somber.

What is scarier than the external enemy is the internal enemy.

The evil spirit spoke to the emperor in a small voice.

"There must be an enemy inside. And those very close."

"Who do you think it is?"

"I don't know until I do my research. And it's a sensitive story to mention here. Do you know? Some of them may have conspiracies to assassinate the Emperor."

When the evil spirit swept the nobles, the roar burst.

"Does one of us have at least assassinated the Emperor?"

"Sir Austin! Watch your language!"

"Are you trying to frame me for a dump?"

Austin whispered only the emperor as the nobles became as noisy as a hotteok restaurant on fire.

"Watch out for the noble. They support the princes whose succession has not been determined."

"Ummm."

The emperor groaned at the whispers of evil spirits.

Luther, who saw him, smiled inwardly.

You're doing great.’

The evil spirit is the devil of Naxanor.

His existence itself was dark, so his mind and body are shaken just by being close.

The Emperor's eyes were on the nobles.

'Yes, it could be one of them.’

Negative emotions rose to the surface under the influence of evil spirits.

Doubt. They looked ungrateful at the opposing nobles.

The evil spirit nailed it.

"He is not a prince, he is a loyal servant of the Emperor. If we calm the East, it will be of great help in the future."

"You have a point. Revenge comes first now, and empire stability is best."

The Chancellor was puzzled by the emperor's murmur.

"When did the Guard become so political?’

It seems that a stern and strong man has turned into a snob.

The wondering minister soon nodded.

'The Emperor's assassination must have given him vengeance.’

Seeing revenge in his mouth, it seemed that some of the nobles had attempted to assassinate the emperor. 

The emperor made a decision.

"I will accept your will and grant you the Elmont on the east coast. The title is the Earl of Elmont, named after the province. I will also offer 500,000 gold and manasok. "We hope that you will continue to rule the Elmont region, lay the groundwork for the eradication of pirates off the east coast, and work hard to stabilize the empire."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Luther looked at the evil spirit while greeting. The evil spirit winked at Luther, wondering if he had fun with human habits.

Unlike in the past, Luther had no intention of hiding his movements.

He secretly contacted Kalua and asked her to spread the rumor.

Soon there was a rumor that a miracle wizard in the capital healed the emperor's disease and was granted a land.

The day we leave for Elmont.

Luther confronted the evil spirit and gave him work to do.

"Conflict the Emperor to keep the princes in check. That alone will not lead to war."

"Sure."

"How obedient. Are you used to your life?"

"It's surprisingly fun to instigate human desires. It's also fun to watch politics in the palace.""You're a human being.”

The evil spirit shrugged his shoulders to see if he did not deny it.

"What if it's fun? I'm not going to continue. I'll go to Elmont for a good cause soon."

"Do as you please. But don't get into trouble."

Luther, who asked for help, looked around the party.

It excluded outsiders who came along with the journey. The number of people heading to the capital was not much different.

However, the two children, who were possessed by evil spirits, joined together.

"Let's go."

"Yes."

The carriage departed and the party left the capital.

Luther, who looked around the plains, nodded.

"It certainly seems slow to develop compared to other provinces.”

Dry wasteland stretches endlessly. The sun is bright and even the grass in places has been twisted dry.

It was a region where it rarely rains, so most of the desert flowers were made, and the occasional breeze smelled salty.

There are no animals and plants, and there is no sign of popularity.

It wasn't the only problem.

"This is Elmont."

Kalua smiled awkwardly while looking at the map.

"It was a desert, not a land that could be reclaimed."

"Surely."

The group looked at the blue sea in the distance. The blue sea was cool just to look at, but not the residents.

In that sea, pirates appear and loot as if they are eating.

Those who couldn't stand it left the east one by one, and now they only had the dishonor of being a pirate den.

This is the current situation in Elmont.

Luther alternated between the white sand along the coast and the scorching sun.

"It's perfect for a vacation spot."

"Yes, the sea is clean, unlike the Dead Sea. I want to see what marine life is over there."

"Let's do it later when we have time. "For now, pioneering is a priority."

"What are you going to do now? This place is worse than the snow mountain."

At that time, there was even a mana stone. Now, unlike then, the resources were poor.

"Don't worry—the conditions are much better than they were."

It was 8 circles when developing snow mountains. But now it is 9 circles.

It was much better if the conditions were better than then.

"It's just a desert now, but it will soon be the center of the continent."

Marine cities are perfect for the Holy Land. 

It becomes the center of trade and bridgehead due to supplies traveling by sea.

Of course, the holy spirit grows.

But not now.

Neither coast had a port city.

It's all pirate time.

Luther intended to make pirates pay a reasonable price if they interfered.

"Let's get rid of this ugly desert for now."

He slowly rose into the air.

The children, who had been clinging to Kiara throughout the journey, looked at the scene with their mouths open.

said Dolken.

"It's time for the miracle to begin.”

They had already learned about Luther's performance through snow mountains.

"What are you going to do this time?"

Luther raised his hand while expectations were rising from the eyes of the party.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.

The grains of desert sand began to rise one by one, and the whole ground began to shake and soar like a pillar of sand.

"Wow!"

The children's eyes became sparkling.

said Dolken with a smile.

"It's too early to be surprised."

This is just the beginning.

Luther opened his palms and clenched his fist.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.

The grains of sand gathered and began to clump tightly.

Luther began to play house with the clumpy sand that the children were playing with.

He built a spire of sand and a round wall. 

In an instant, a huge wall was built as much as the capital of the empire, and several spires, such as a mast, were built in the center.

We laid a huge road in your defense, and we trimmed the walls.

The party was stunned.

It is surprising to see it several times and I can't help but admiring it.

Human abilities seem to have gone beyond the past, but now they have exercised their power like God.

After completing the basic framework, Luther drew a huge magic line in the east direction to push the salty wind away.

The wind opened in creative rune was pushed out into the sea.

If the wind is salty, the crops cannot grow. Luther artificially changed the texture of the wind and created waterways throughout the improvised structure.

Water flows and cool wind flows.

Finally, when seeds that had been stored through spatial magic were sprayed to stimulate the promotion, trees and grass grew thick everywhere.

The world, which was a desert until a while ago, has been turned into a place enough for people to live.

Everything was a moment and an instant.

The admiration of the nine-circle group was brief.

Luther looked westward."There's a visitor.”

Landing on the floor, he said to the group as he headed toward the spire.

"People will be here soon, so guide me."

"People?"

"Yes."

As time went by, as he said, a large crowd of people came to pull the cart.

Dolken, who climbed the wall made by Luther, talked to Jacques as he looked at the carriage procession over the choir.

"Maybe it's because of the rumor, right?”

"Miracle Wizard. I never thought it would be Luther."

"Why did you think that?”

"When I heard what Kahlua said, he said he had a purpose."

"I don't know what it's for, but I'm going to be in the future. Don't you have to take care of them?"

Where there are excellent therapists, they are crowded with people.

said Dolken.

"Let's go for now."

"Yes."

The party began to welcome guests with their arms rolled up.

The migration of the population began when rumors spread that the miracle wizard had been crowned as the lord of Elmont at the same time as he had been awarded the title for treating the emperor.

The world did not have a smooth treatment system, and many people died of small diseases.

Usually, treatment costs a lot of money.

The temple has to offer donations, and there are many con artists.

The sorcerer didn't even look, so the poor and sick did not hesitate to suffer to receive treatment from the miracle sorcerer.

It's very hard work to receive the crowds.

However, it was only for a while.

Luther was impossible, and any patient could be treated.

The people who received the treatment praised Luther with tears.

Those who came desperately looked shabby.

Most of the poor were poor, and they came with their last feelings until they came.

They looked around the world Luther created and thought it was good to live in.

Patients and their families spread out around Luther and began to sit down.

It was the beginning of a change in Elmont.
