Chapter 574. A quiet world (5) + When everyone fell asleep (1) Fortunately, no major damage.
That's because it's just sleeping.
It was early in the morning, when there was little activity, that they performed witchcraft there.
There were relatively few people who were victimized by sudden falling asleep.
‘I don't know what it is like on other continents where there is a time difference.'
I don't have time to look there.
First of all, we checked the safety of our family first.
Fortunately, there was no problem on that side, but another problem arose.
‘now… … Shen didn't answer.'
I gave Shen a separate communication tool.
But even if you keep calling, you won't receive it.
I thought he fell asleep because of the witchcraft.
Were you awake?
I asked if he was in Yeongji, but even the knights from Yeongji-gun didn't seem to know.
Just when I thought about contacting the South, two communication ports rang.
One was a communication tool given to Rerensen in the south.
And another... … .
“The royal side?”
It's the communication tool I gave to my older brother.
To think that both sounded at the same time... …
It won't be a coincidence.
I got both at the same time.
I listened to two things at the same time, manipulating only so that each other's voices did not interfere.
“Arel. I don't know if you checked.”
“Arel Ernesia. I don't know if you checked it too.”
The two sounds overlap, but the contents are clearly audible.
No, you don't have to tell them apart in the first place.
“Something crazy seems to have happened.”
“Something crazy seems to have happened.”
It was because, except for the tone of voice, the two men's business was exactly the same.
Other than that, is the degree of embarrassment the same?
What the hell is going on?
What on earth are they seeing and getting so flustered about?
I'm hearing it.
“under… … Did you mean that?”
I frowned in embarrassment.
As you might have guessed, they came out on stage.
However, it seemed that there were quite a few problems with that method.
Probably by now everyone who has heard of it has been turned upside down.
*
Only about 5 minutes ago.
“… … It is nonsense.”
Rerensen, a shaman who leads the entire southern country and a reincarnated person, shuddered when she heard ‘that fact'.
It was when I opened my eyes that I felt a sense of incongruity.
She had to get up in a hurry, realizing that she had been under a strange spell a moment ago.
And although she confirmed that there was no problem with herself and those around her, she never had time to breathe a sigh of relief.
Normally, she had her eyes placed here and there.
It is to reduce blind spots as much as possible by arranging dolls made of clay and stones around them.
That's why Rirensen was able to notice the change right away.
As soon as I opened my eyes, information about the situation came in.
It's also a pretty urgent situation.
Right away, she came to the scene and checked it out with her own eyes.
the beach she was heading for.
There, a man with black hair is washed up and is recovering his energy by sitting down.
It's Shen.
I already know why he is here and why he is so hurt.
That information was also passed on by the alter ego.
Knowing that fact, I hurried to come, but it was already over.
“???? Are you here?”
Shen frowned and glanced at Lirensen before asking.
Now she was in no mood to inquire after him.
She just glared at the distant sea and gnashed her teeth.
“It can’t be!”
However, if she had to deny it, reality immediately denied her feelings.
Her vision reflects the distant sea.
Now she was looking out to hundreds of kilometers offshore.
A huge city that appeared as if it had landed in the middle of the sea.
‘. no way?'
I have heard somewhere about the layout of the buildings in the city.
It is similar to the structure of the stronghold of Caduceus mentioned by Arell.
‘Did they finally appear?'
But now, she has no time to be distracted by the appearance of the enemy base.
Because more absurd facts await.
farther out of town.
Just a few hundred kilometers away, another figure is visible in a blur.
it is a continent
The shapes of all continents, except for the southern one, are reflected like a mirage.
“This is crazy… …
It's just that it's not her that's crazy, it's the current situation. she understood
The enemy's stronghold has appeared.
and.
At present, all continents have been narrowed to the extent that only a distance of several hundred kilometers is left around the island.
“… … The world has become so small.”
It's not a metaphor, it really happened.
‘I never thought it would go this far.'
Rerensen sighed as she recalled the information flashing in her head.
When everyone fell asleep (1) It was around the time when Arel had just woken up in time and noticed that everyone was asleep.
“… … The situation cannot be said to be very desirable.”
Shen opened his eyes and looked around, talking quietly to himself.
No one listens anyway.
All the humans in his field of vision now fell asleep.
After her teacher, Arell Ernesia, headed there for a meeting with the enemy, Shen continued to train his soldiers as usual while remaining vigilant.
It is because it is possible for the enemy to attack while he is not there.
That's why I tried to observe the surrounding situation without sleeping as much as possible.
If you set your mind to it, you can be active without eating or sleeping for half a year.
But it was at night that he felt something strange.
It was a feeling of fatigue that couldn't be felt.
‘This?!'
By the time I realized it wasn't just fatigue, it was already too late.
At some point, he realized that he, too, was going downhill.
Like Allel, his body has resistance to most poisons and spells like an iron wall.
Is that why I was careless?
But do you think about it? hey it's late
“Kuh! I hope this is the enemy's trick... …
Even Shen couldn't stand the drowsiness and closed his eyes.
And it was already like this when I managed to drive away the strange aura that invaded my whole body.
Literally the world fell asleep. Everything that can be seen, both humans and animals, has ceased to be active.
“… … Can't you wake up those who are already asleep no matter what?”
It is different from simply losing consciousness.
Shen checked the soldier's pulse, but did not see any other problems.
If so, there is no way you can do anything about it.
Not just soldiers.
After lightly looking around the castle, he confirmed that all the humans were lying face down with the same symptoms.
After making sure they were safe, Shen stood still and thought.
‘… … Is this the situation the teacher was concerned about?'
Arel asked Shen once before leaving.
Obviously something will happen between the talks.
that they're up to something.
And what she asked Shen for was security rather than resolution of the situation.
‘But only then...' …
I don't know if there is a clear enemy, but it's just embarrassing for Shen.
This phenomenon... … It is difficult to cope with schemes using methods such as witchcraft or magic.
Are you thinking about what to do?
A bird was flying above his head.
“bird?”
Isn't it strange?
Surely, all humans and animals must have fallen asleep now.
But doubts were soon dispelled. Shen recognized the bird's identity.
A clay doll used by Rerensen. She split her consciousness into it and infused it, using it as an alter ego.
[ah! You woke up!]
Rerensen's alter ego came down happily.
It sits on top of Shen's head.
Being rude, I don't even have the heart to ask.
Shen was equally happy.
It's a sure thing that there are people who are more knowledgeable about this trick than you are.
“This is what I want to say. Are you aware of this situation, by any chance?”
I asked with little hope.
This is because the girl understands this phenomenon much better than he does.
Although I expected knowledge from her.
[…] … Please calm down and listen.]
“I wonder if this is bad news.”
[I'm sorry I couldn't tell you anything but disappointment.]
“It doesn't matter.”
[Sounds like you didn't expect it.]
The alter ego sighed and sighed.
[First of all, I don't know anything… … No, it's right to say I don't even know if I know.]
“What do you mean?”
[My body is still sleeping.]
“Huh?”
When Shen breathed as if he didn't understand, the clone explained once more.
[This alter ego is supposed to think and act separately from the main body just in case. This is Petit Lirensen #3, an alter ego for collecting information in case of emergency.]
“Could there be a #2 and #2?
When I casually asked, the alter ego somehow turned away and avoided the topic.
[However, unlike other alter egos, the ability is biased. The breadth of knowledge is limited. I almost have no strength... … .]
“Is it like that?”
Shen, not versed in this type of sorcery, listened as if he meant it.
[So I don't know anything!]
.....
[I know it's a problem, but I can't help it. Because this is my limit. What was the body thinking in the first place... … .]
Shen started complaining about something, so Shen was willing to let it go.
“So what are the other problems?”
[Oh, I'll explain that as we go. First of all, please start in the direction I instructed.]
“How do you move?”
[I can't.]
What do you know how to replace?
[And please share some mana. There are a lot of things I wish for
.
Shen handed out the qi exactly as requested, and proceeded in the direction she directed.
[Please proceed to the port city on the Felsen Kingdom side.]
I know the direction.
There is a distance, but with his footwork, it would take less than 30 minutes.
[Please listen as you go.]
.... Um.
[Currently, exactly 44 days have passed since all humans went to sleep.]
“?… “what?”
Shen stopped nonchalantly.
Then, as he started to gallop again, he asked if he had heard wrong.
[No doubt. I observed it myself. In the first place, I am an alter ego for information gathering! Ahem!]
Why are you acting proud?
It's an emergency that limits a lot of things.]
“I don't know.”
[…] … Oh, it seems you have never lived in the world where that story is told.]
“Come to think of it, it seems that the teacher has said something similar before.”
I don't know what that has to do with this.
[In short, the people who are currently asleep are stationary only so that their bodies are not burdened. As a result, there is no aging or change in the slightest. In terms of principle, it is closer to the concept of sealing than sleep.]
“Is that so?”
[maybe… … If this spell is not resolved, it will remain the same for hundreds of years. I think there will be errors because it is the conclusion I made after investigating the sleeping human.]
“Then, how to solve it?”
[I don't know. However, it is certain that the origin of the magic is the Kingdom of Felsen.]
