The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - chapter 157

Ch 157

How to deal with wizards (5)

Felix traced his memory.

Although I did not completely inherit Burning, a few pieces of the words I heard from Master came to mind.

“Burning is not the kind of skill you can master in a day or two. First of all, the affinity for fire has to be overwhelmingly high, so anyone can’t teach it just because they want to learn it. my brother If you really want to follow in my footsteps, get close to the fire every day and somehow find a way to fully embrace it. If a strong flame wraps around your body and you feel no pain. Then you can be reborn as an incarnation of fire.”

Phoenix Tower.

The reason their power is weak even though they have strong secret skills is that there is no clear system on how to transmit knowledge.

Squadron lords of Phoenix.

They embraced fire in different ways, and Felix’s master acquired the overpowering properties of fire from an arson incident he suffered as a child.

However, the teacher’s experience was not the correct answer.

Although there were disciples who deliberately tried the sadistic method of setting themselves on fire, they either lost their lives or were permanently unable to use parts of their bodies.

After all, burning was the realm of talent.

After a period of indefinite time, I had no choice but to pray that the fire would be fully embraced.

By the way.

Roman Dmitry said there was no problem with the fire in the oven.

If that is true, it is safe to say that he possessed the basic condition of burning, ‘overwhelming affinity for fire’.

‘Roman Dmitry’s reaction was certainly beyond common sense even when fighting me. Apart from being completely fearless even in the roaring fire, it did not even respond to any heat at all. Maybe Roman Dmitry knows how to embrace the fire as if he had analyzed the magic system? For the Dmitry family, who have been familiar with the fires of the hearth from generation to generation, there may be secrets that people do not know.’

It may not be true.

Even so, he couldn’t contain his swelled hopes.

Burning.

Phoenix is everything.

People recognized the value of Phoenix when Burning’s apprentice existed in the horse tower, but in the current situation where its reputation was cut off, it was treated as a useless treasure trove.

That is why the existence of Burning was very important.

A wizard who has learned to burn is called a natural disaster on the battlefield, so the fact that only one person was missing had to shake the Phoenix Tower.

future future.

In order for Phoenix to survive, he had to manifest Burning himself, who had inherited the position of Master Mato.

End the conversation with the blacksmith.

moved right away.

Right Now.

I had to meet Roman Dmitry.

* * *

I met Roman.

Even though it was a face I saw every day, my heart raced like crazy at the thought that I might know the clue to Burning.

Felix said.

” According to what the blacksmiths say, Roman Dmitry was told that while working at the forge, he embraced the flames of the furnace with his bare body. Are you protecting yourself with mana by any chance, or do you have a special way of embracing fire, Roman Dmitry-sama?”

I didn’t ask for a clear purpose.

but.

The answer was derived from two options.

The former was a no-brainer, and in the latter case, Roman Dmitry was at stake for the future of the Phoenix Horse Tower.

Roman looked at Felix.

He did not reveal his purpose, but he could read his intentions through his eyes.

“I think the rumors that they were looking for a way to accept fire were true. If you’re asking me to say that the look I’ve shown in the forge is innate, it’s definitely not. I am no different from ordinary people. I feel the same heat in front of the fire, but I solved the problem in my own way.”

Moment.

my heart sank.

When Roman clearly stated the answer he wanted, his mouth was dry and his palms were wet with sweat.

‘Roman Dmitry. He knows what I want.’

Actually.

There was nothing to hide.

It was a well-known fact that the Phoenix Horse Tower was looking for the ability to absorb fire, but no one could provide an answer.

It was a natural result. Forcibly raising the affinity of fire is not a problem that humans can solve.

It’s the realm of supreme-ruler, so I hoped for a miracle to happen with a simple way of getting close to the fire.

Even if Roman gives the real answer.

Felix was ready to do anything for Roman.

‘The reason Phoenix Horse Tower has been undervalued in the past is because there is no clear system in the process of passing on the secret. I had no choice but to wait for the affinity of fire to bloom, and if the transferor of Burning suddenly disappears as in the current situation of the horse tower, it is no different than losing all its power. But if there is a way to artificially satisfy the basic conditions of burning. The situation in the Phoenix Horse Tower is completely different.’

that there is a system.

turned the situation around.

It was only a matter of time for the Phoenix Horse Tower to take off if the burning was transmitted stably, starting with Felix.

“Whoa-.”

took a deep breath.

My hands and feet trembled.

Unable to hide his nervousness, Felix said cautiously.

“I will tell you straight up. Phoenix Horse Tower requires Roman Dmitry’s skill. Please tell me any conditions. I will unconditionally meet those conditions.”

Hope was inflated.

The last three years have been like a nightmare.

After that painful time, I finally caught hold of the string of hope.

By the way.

“It’s not that difficult for me to teach you that skill. But we have no reason to be so favourable.”

We meet every day for two months, and maybe he mistakenly thought that Roman Dmitry was a very sympathetic person.

Felix and Roman Dmitry.

The two were male.

Although they thought that the relationship was ripening as time passed, the two never had a conversation that deviated from their original purpose.

That was it.

Roman Dmitry’s frank disclosure of magical knowledge was beneficial because he had no intention of spreading his knowledge indiscriminately.

Roman wanted a solid relationship.

Now that Felix revealed his desire, it became a weakness that held onto his ankle.

‘this.’

Felix’s expression hardened.

ability to accept fire.

The Phoenix Horse Tower has revealed how desperate it is.

In a situation where Roman Dmitry had drawn the line, the absolute Eul had no choice but to be the Phoenix Horse Tower.

fortunately though.

Roman hoped to use compromise rather than discord, and use it positively if the other person’s aspirations were strong.

said Roman.

“Dmitry has it all. He is financially wealthy enough to bet 10,000 gold as a reward for simply competing, but there is nothing else he wants from Phoenix Horseman. So, think carefully and tell me. Phoenix Horse Tower, how far can you go to get that one?”

thrown question.

Unexpectedly, Felix could no longer control his expression.

* * *

The answer was delayed for a while.

He needed time to think, and Felix immediately summoned the wizards of Phoenix.

After fully explaining what happened with Roman, Knox stepped forward again, representing the other wizards.

“I will tell you my honest opinion. A month in Dmitry. At first, we didn’t understand what Felix-sama meant to bring us in, but after staying here, I learned that Dmitry was a completely different place from the rumors. It’s an unbelievably perfect system for a frontier estate, and the people here have shown blind trust in Roman Dmitry. To be honest, I was really envious. After the disappearance of Lord Matap, our Phoenix wizards did not find stability for a moment, but the people of Dmitry seemed very happy.”

What Felix felt.

The other wizards were the same.

As I got along with the people of Dmitry, I could feel through my skin how ideal the land called Dmitry was.

Is that so?

No one said anything in the first place, but they turned to Dmitry.

“We have played against Roman Dmitry several times over the past month and have not won a single match. At first, I thought it was the result of carelessness. But no matter how much they rolled their heads and joined forces, they could not come up with a way to defeat Roman Dmitry. Roman Dmitry is arguably the nemesis of the wizard. Just thinking about the possibility of meeting such a being on the battlefield at any time makes me terrified to such an extent that even just imagining it gives me goosebumps.”

defeat in the past.

Felix wasn’t the only one.

There were also wizards of Phoenix including Knox, and they had no choice but to acknowledge Roman for repeated defeats.

expression of heaven.

It was so accurate.

At least against wizards, Roman Dmitry had an overwhelming presence.

“Why don’t you say that? If you can’t win, I’d rather join that side. Now that the Frankish kingdom disrespects Phoenix differently from the beginning, I think it is not a bad way to dedicate the Phoenix to Roman Dmitry in order to maintain the legacy of Burning. And honestly. Didn’t Felix-sama also call us to ask for consent?

” Did I seem to think so?”

“We also have something to look out for. If it hadn’t been positive in the first place, we wouldn’t have asked for our opinion.

Knox’s words.

Other wizards agreed.

At the gathering of opinions, Felix swallowed the words.

‘The Dmitry family.’

13 towers.

They all worked hand in hand with different countries.

The rarity of the wizards was great, and there was never a single case of personally forming a relationship with a noble family.

that frame.

Phoenix tried to escape.

Rather than the Cairo Kingdom, he was strongly drawn to a family called Dmitry.

I shut my eyes tight.

The existence of Burning was important enough to give Phoenix everything.

And if you swear allegiance to someone in return, Roman Dmitry was not a bad option.

Finally.

I know. As of this time, we will entrust the future of the Phoenix Tower to Roman Dmitry.”

As the deputy master of matap.

Felix made a decision.

* * *

that day.

Felix brought the wizards and swore allegiance.

Dozens of wizards.

Even when they all swore allegiance, Roman took their allegiance for granted with a calm face.

being a wizard.

There was nothing special about Roman.

Just as he had accepted Chris and Kevin, he had only put Phoenix inside the fence.

but.

‘This is the most ideal situation I could think of.’

Roman deliberately chose the Phoenix Horse Tower.

There were three reasons for this choice.

first.

At a time when a matchmaker was needed, Felix was, as I explained, the best option to bring in money.

According to the information obtained through the information guild.

Felix would choose to go to Dmitry for the money, but he had the venom to find a way to somehow win over repeated defeats.

second.

Felix specialized in attack magic.

This means that it is not just a choice based on cost-effectiveness.

Through repeated battles with Felix, he decided that he had something to gain.

third.

This was uncertain.

Rumor has it that Phoenix Horse Tower needs the ability to accept fire in order to maintain Burning’s life, and Roman’s Chloride supreme-rulerdess was a perfect fit for that.

I wasn’t sure what the outcome would be with this.

But if they have what Phoenix wants, and if that’s the only puzzle that can really solve their problems. Roman knew it would be an unconditional advantage.

with one choice.

There were three benefits.

The decisive arrival of the Phoenix wizards to Roman was the result of causing a great uproar in the Cairo Kingdom.

‘There is not much time left. Here in Dmitry, far from the capital. I will build Dmitryman’s castle one by one and wipe out the power system of the Cairo Kingdom at once.’

lost in thought

Future plans.

Roman, step by step, organized the thoughts in his head.

* * *

a few days later.

The migration of Phoenix Horse Tower proceeded steadily.

First, he kept the fact that he was following Dmitry externally, and moved his belongings in the Frankish Kingdom one by one and settled in Dmitry.

‘I hope my choice was not wrong.’

Forward.

After the battle was over, I decided to learn Chloe Shingeong.

I don’t know if that’s really a sign of burning, but whatever the outcome, I won’t regret it.

Roman Dmitry.

He added no other conditions to Phoenix’s decision.

For the sole reason of swearing allegiance, Roman supported the migration process with certainty.

That was then.

“Lord of the tower! Matthew Lord!”

“What’s going on?”

He was a phoenix wizard.

Although the circle was not very high, he was a person in charge of chores because he was quick to count.

He handed him a document with a hot face.

“Look at this. This is the budget that Dmitry assigned to us!”

” Budget?”

Felix.

He didn’t know a man named Roman yet.

To follow Roman Dmitry.

what that means
