Chapter 419

Ellen came, but Harry couldn't bring her along as it was already a tense situation. Ellen suddenly kissed the protagonist and left without explaining anything. The protagonist called Lucinil to explain the situation and they decided to join the Imperial army to head to the Tomb of the Lich. The protagonist reflects on their lack of belief in gods and their reliance on their own power. A meeting was held on Saturday night in the land dominated by eternal winter. Originally, only members of the Vampire Council were supposed to gather around the round table in the conference room, but due to the nature of the current situation and the change in the council's temperament, others were also present, including the heads of the four vampire families except Antirianus, who is responsible for the Tomb of the Lich, as well as Eleris, Lucinil, Lurien, Galarsch, and Sarkkegar, a servant of Valier. Even Epinhausur, a member of the Black Order, was present. In fact, most of them were gathered there except for Linekanslof Royar. Lucinil replied to Eleris' question, "Can we be sure that Rose Druin is a member of Kantus Magna?" by saying, "We can't be sure. It's just a situation. But if he's not Kantus Magna, it's strange that he was able to do what he did in the palace and turn his attention to a large number of magic books. And if this is Kantus Magna's intention, it means that they have decided to focus all their efforts on this matter, no matter what they have done so far. They will definitely concentrate all their resources on the Tomb of the Lich. And even if not, there may be unnecessary trouble if that guy spills the beans while we have set up a trap." Galarsch nodded with his arms crossed, saying, "That's important, but what's more important is that the Empire's resources are heading there. It's doubtful whether we can save Kantus Magna's magicians even if we break through the tomb." Sarkegar, who appears as an ordinary human male, spoke with a worried voice. Lucinil nodded in agreement, stating that the Empire's resources heading towards the Tomb of the Lich may pose a threat to Kantus Magna. They discussed the possibility of intervening if necessary and the capture of Kantus Magna's magicians. Sarkegar was praised for his expertise in infiltration and disguise. The group consisted of six members, including Lucinil, and they discussed their next steps in preparation for the potential situation at the tomb. Galarsch expressed his intention to go, surprising the others, including Le Ruin who was concerned about his age. Translation: Galarsch was staring at Lucinil, who was grumbling with concern and was clearly going to follow. "Ah, this honest monster...." "Noisy dwarf." "What, what?! Dwarf?" "You were the one who called me a monster first." Epinhausser was just watching the scene of the elf and orc vampire bickering. In the end, they decided to go to the scene except for Le Ruin. "I'm not the type to be swept away like this... definitely not..." Le Ruin hesitated, feeling uncomfortable about being the only one left behind, and not wanting to leave when it wasn't the problem to be decided. "No, Le Ruin, you do have the type of personality to be swept away." It was Lucinil's words. "Well, that's certainly true." Elelys added. "According to my judgment of having seen you for a long time, you have no backbone." And Galarsch's final words. Due to the memory reset every 200 years, the words of the road vampires who had been watching Le Ruin for a longer time than himself were more accurate. Knowing this, the already pale complexion of the elf vampire turned even whiter. "Is... is that true?" "Yeah, it's always like this. You think you have a strong opinion, but when you realize that you're actually a personality that swings back and forth without backbone, you always react like this." Le Ruin opened his mouth at Lucinil's words. "I... have no backbone?" In reality, Le Ruin had no intention of cooperating with Valier, but when Galarsch decided to join Valier's side, he reluctantly agreed to cooperate. In the end, even Le Ruin, who had no backbone, was decided to go to the Tomb of the Lich together.
