There are no Bad Transcendents in the World

About an hour ago.

“Your Majesty. The preparations are complete.”

Tahar scanned the armed knights of Gelon one after another. On the outside, everyone was pretending to be ordinary swordsmen and he really liked the high proportion of wizards.

“What about undead monsters?”

“Young lady Lydia started moving them.”

“Lydia will suffer. we have to make sure She doesn’t quit.”

Tahar realized that it would be a burden on his daughter. But she was a Gelon, and she’d be proud of the work she’d done today.

“Let’s go.”

Tahar got up from his seat and headed to the temple with the knights. When he got nearby, he heard people talking.

“No matter how undead monsters are active during the season, isn’t the large-scale charge sudden?”

“I can’t help it. I have no choice but to believe that His Majesty the Emperor will come. The barrier created by His Majesty has only been broken once, right?”

“Ah, that was around the time Lady Roselia died, right? I heard that the undead monsters that were set up then were really vicious.”

People talk and walked away, asking if the monster could be as vicious as they were back then.

Tahar listened to the conversation and laughed inwardly.

‘This time, I selected a little stronger monster than before.’

Among the mansion owned by the Duke of Gelon, there was a place with a large cellar. They’d put the enhanced undead monsters in there, forced them to fight, and only the strongest of them would be controlled by Lydia.

Crakk!

It wasn’t long before the undead monsters began to break through the barrier. The attack was stronger than expected, and even the knights were panicking.

‘Stupid bastards, staying here will get you killed.’

Tahar drew his sword, feeling the victory ahead of him. The emperor must have been clenching his teeth in a fit of force by now.

So, sooner or later, the barrier will be broken, and then he pretends to subdue the monsters with magic…

Boom!

‘What?’

Tahar, who was checking the plan in his head, couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw a huge bolt of lightning strike the undead monsters. Among the knights he brought, there was no one who could immediately activate the magic of that magnitude.

“Who did that?”

At his question, the knights moved their gaze to one place. The only human who is on the same level as Lydia through magic.

Transcendentalist Daniel Prause was there.

“Long time no see, Your Highness Tahar.”

“Grand Duke. Why are you here…”

Tahar stopped asking and turned his head to look at the undead monster. Sure enough, the cracks in the barrier Monster had thrown their bodies into were slowly getting better.

‘Is it the divine power of the Grand Duke Prause?’

‘Or is that lowly thing?’

No matter who was helping the Emperor, the fact that the barriers that had to be broken were reattached was clear evidence that things were going wrong.

However, the Grand Duke was in front of him, so he couldn’t help but wonder.

‘If that’s the case, the undead monsters are waiting to destroy resident houses.’

There were many people who had not evacuated yet, knights, and priests.

It was a clever strategy to be careful about how he looked, especially now that he was being compared to Frey, who had built the Sacred Tower.

Boom!

Daniel, with a nonchalant face, struck down the undead monsters one more time with his magical power.

“I hope this isn’t too much trouble, Your Majesty.”

“It’s difficult. Do you know how relieved I am that you’re here?”

Daniel let out a sneer without hiding it. His eyes were completely cold, unlike when he was with Frey.

“I’m glad you think so. There is something I really want to find out by subduing them.”

There was anger in every word. Tahar instinctively sensed that his anger was directed at him and at Gelon.

“As you know, my people have been suffering for years from strange undead monsters in my territory.”

Boom!

“I heard that similar monsters appeared here, so I’m going to catch them and investigate.”

Kwakk!

His speech was calm, but the undead monsters were almost being roasted by the magic lightning.

‘Could it be that he was so angry because the residents suffered some damage?’

‘Ruining Gelon’s plans only because of the residents?’

Tahar’s eyes were bloodshot. It was very scary to look at but Daniel was not affected in the slightest. Rather, he only condensed a greater amount of magical power.

He instantly concentrated and read Lydia’s magic. Transcendent after transcendent, the child’s magic was beyond the reach of any wizard in this world, including the Duke of Gelon.

‘Fortunately, she is still young and her skill level is low.’

Wushh!

Daniel’s magical energy swept through the air as swiftly as it could cut through.

Then, the movements of the undead monsters, who were brutally throwing their bodies to break the barrier, became noticeably slowed down.

“…!”

Daniel’s eyes widened vertically, Seeing that scene the knights of Gelon were speechless.

‘Did you break Lydia’s magic…?’

‘The undead monsters don’t listen to her anymore?’

The Grand Duke didn’t seem to have any special equipment to deal with undead monsters. If that was the case, then it was clear that he had broken Lydia’s magic with His pure magic power.

‘It’s nonsense. the plan…’

‘Duke Gelon never taught me that something like this was possible!’

It was hard to breathe as Tahar looked into the dragon’s eyes, which could devour a beast alive.

Daniel looked at Tahar and spoke.

“Don’t think of touching my territory and my wife and blaming the owner of the magic tower for everything.”

“….”

“We are also analyzing the leaked data from the Magic Tower, so whatever you’re planning is going to go terribly wrong.”

Tahar gritted his teeth.

He couldn’t help it. He had no divine powers, and he was far below Daniel Prause in magic power, and Daniel’s stiff deference was a mockery.

* * *

Frey cheered as the undead monsters suddenly looked around as if they were lost.

“Pafe success, Father!”

‘Pafe’, which calculates the opponent’s magic in reverse and instantly counters it, is difficult to execute unless you are a Transcendent.

Besides, Moreover, if the person casting the manipulation magic is Lydia, the transcendent of magic, it was a foregone conclusion.

This was only possible because Daniel had thoroughly analyzed the undead monsters and magic scrolls stolen from the Magic Tower.

“Grand Duke Prause…That’s amazing. I thought it was a natural disaster.”

My father spoke as he recalled the power of Prause’s magic that had struck again and again.

Once Daniel neutralized Lydia’s magic, the situation was resolved.

‘Tahar’s knights were probably here at the moment when the barrier of divine power was broken.’

However, since the divine power barrier was not broken, there was no need for Tahar to use wide-area magic. Even if he used wide-area magic, it wouldn’t be as splendid as what Daniel, the transcendental, showed before.

Above all, Lydia, who is hiding somewhere and controlling dozens of undead monsters, must have been tired.

‘I felt bad for her, thinking of the panic she must be feeling at having her magic broken.’

‘Did Tahar want to prove that magic is stronger than divine power, even by squeezing his daughter’s power?’

In my previous life, I saw many parents who did not qualify as parents, and this life was no different. I could not always understand the people who hurt the body and minds of their precious families.

In that case.

“Father.”

I looked at the emperor’s chest with a cold face. The droplets of blood from each wound were stamped all too clearly.

“You didn’t tell me until you were in this condition?”

“Ah, Frey…”

My father patted his chest. However, that wasn’t going to get rid of the traces of blood that had already dried and hardened.

“I heard that you even ordered your Vassals not to tell me about your health condition.”

“….”

“I heard that the situation is so bad that it is difficult to treat unless you use medicines that are difficult to obtain. Is that true?”

My father muttered that he should improve the barrier and averted my gaze.

The more I thought about it, the more my heart churned, and I ended up using a cheat key.

“My mother…what would Roselia do if she found out about this?”

“….”

Even the great emperor, who used his ailing body to strengthen the barrier to avoid being defeated by the surprise attacks of undead monsters, was just a husband in front of his wife.

“I’m sorry, Frey. I’m afraid it will harm you…I know that you have very little divine power left because you built the Sacred Tower.”

“Of course, it’s true but my divine power is slowly recovering–”

I felt so sad that my eyes were red with tears.

“Did you ever think how heartbroken I would be if I couldn’t help and lost my father?”

When I said it with sincerity, my father smiled awkwardly.

“I knew. The day Roselia died and you were hurt, I told myself many times. The next time they come around, I’ll kill them with a single blow. I’ll show them what divine power can do, and I’ll make sure they never cross it again.”

“….”

“But I am old and sick, and my divine power seems to be much less than before.”

Father put his hand on the pillar and silently breathed divine power into it. I also put my hand next to him and blew divine power into it. 

My father, like me, would have wanted to get revenge on Gelon for taking away my mother and my younger brother.

Maybe he was waiting for an opportunity like today.

But… the result is almost a failure. It was a dangerous situation, and I almost lost another loved one.

‘Understanding his feelings was another matter.’

“Promise me you’ll take care of yourself, so I can be happy.”

“I’m sorry, Frey and I will do that.”

Both of us didn’t have enough divine power, so the recovery of the barrier was slow.

It seemed that the residence houses on the ground were gradually being fixed.

As I watched the Imperial Knight and Gelon Knights move in perfect order, a good idea came to my mind.

“I think I’ve found a way to make sure the monsters never cross the barrier again.”
