Chapter 705: The Fight for Time 5

Chapter 705: The Fight for Time 5

“Who is that child?”

“She is so bright and cute.”

Jo Mimi and Ja-hye, who were provided food by the guards, were confused when they found Karen.

It was because she was a child who wasn’t at the party when they started.

Unlike those who seemed suspicious, Erwin understood it.

“She is Princess Karen. She is Your Majesty’s daughter.”

“Your Majesty’s daughter?”

The two of them seemed visibly shocked.

They did hear the news that Luke was already married in their home nations.

However, after they came to Symphonia, they didn’t see the queen.

What was even odder was that most people in the palace were even unaware of the existence of a queen.

And Prime Minister Hans explained it.

“The queen’s mother is in poor health, so she is taking care of her at her own home. In addition, Your Majesty has too many enemies, so he is trying to keep his family under the radar and avoid any misfortunes to happen to them.”

It sounded plausible, but something still seemed suspicious.

Then they saw Luke’s daughter. That too when they were supposed to infiltrate the enemy camp.

“I didn’t know that he had a girl that old.”

“Maybe he married early.”

“Then, if we become His Majesty’s companion in the future, will we have to become the mother of that child?”

“Hu, hu, hu, I need to do well in the future.”

Erwin smiled thinly as she heard the conversation between the two. It was because she was confident that people wouldn’t think that Karen was adopted.

Luke and Karen looked way too similar, and she even believed that she was indeed her daughter.

‘There seems to be something…’

According to what Erwin observed, Luke and Hwang Bo-sung seemed to know Karen’s true identity.

But they never spoke about it.

It was like saying that the truth would result in a bad thing to happen.

“But doesn’t it look like they are arguing about something?”

“Right. What happened?”

As the princesses were talking, Karen and Luke did seem to be arguing.

“I hate it. I don’t want to do it.”

“Listen to your dad. We aren’t going anywhere right now.”

“I know. But you are going over to the Imperial Palace in Nemesis to stop Rudolf from using the ruins.”

‘Ruins?’

Those who were eavesdropping on their conversation like Erwin and the two princesses seemed puzzled.

As they knew, Luke declared war on the Baroque Empire, and it was because Rudolf tried to weaponize a notorious plague, Vers.

The reason the new group was organized and moved in a separate way was to remove the pathogen before the Imperial troops used them.

‘Are they using the Vers in that site?’

Luke glanced over at Erwin’s group and then looked back to Karen.

“This is war. It isn’t right for a child to be in here.”

“I am not a child!”

As Karen shouted, Luke realized who she was.

She was the genius mage who was regarded as the only hope of the future that was destroyed by the undead. A world that didn’t exist anymore.

Although she lost her original strength was lost and her body was changed into a child-like figure all because she went against Time and Space, she still had the experience and sense.

And after coming into the new future, the Aether in her body must have recovered to some extent.

“It isn’t as good as before, but I am better than you dad.”

“That joke is pretty hard on my ears.”

Luke’s face hardened at Karen’s words.

Rather than apologizing, Karen was taunting Luke.

“You just don’t want to admit it. But dad’s magic and sword skills are outdated.”

“What was that? Outdated?”

“Yes, like a generation ago!”

Well, from Karen’s point of view, it really was a generation old.

The one who was saying that was the very child who learned and used the legacy left behind by Luke.

‘This!’

Hwang Bo-sung hesitated whether or not to stop the two, who were fighting, but he couldn’t do it.

It was because the voice at which Karen was speaking was something he could never do.

Karen was a genius among geniuses, and she had mastered magic and swordsmanship, and also Divine power.

But for Hwang Bo-sung, Luke was no less than her.

No, after Karen entered time, he went along with Luke to the Southern Continent for an expedition, and his skills seemed to have improved even more.

In addition, it wasn’t told to the other people, but just recently, Luke had started to learn the vision of the warrior, Heechang, from the ancient records he brought from the Southern Continent.

In front of him, Karen was hurting his pride!

“Even if it is outdated, it is up to me whether to use it or not.”

“People who can’t keep up with time often say the same excuses”

“Because of the contribution of the old generation, the new generation are able to pioneer their own paths.”

“Words of a true old man. I thought my dad was smarter than this.”

As Karen kept talking back and forth, Luke’s patience reached its limit.

He knew that everyone was trying to help him.

However, he didn’t want his own daughter, who had already seen the grim world and suffered severely for intervening with time, to get involved in any more dangerous things.

‘There is a limit as to how much one can belittle me. Am I not good enough compared to the time I was called the Devil King? Outdated?’

Luke’s pride was extremely hurt.

Only a few people knew he was the Devil King, Saymo,n or the Black Sage, who terrified the continent 500 years ago.

Reina and Karen didn’t know about it.

They didn’t know, so rebelling against Luke like this seemed alright, but it didn’t feel right for his own child to overthrow everything that her father was.

“It wasn’t enough that your mom is already upset with you. Now you are looking down at your father… Our princess offended quite a few people.”

“Dad will also have to realize. If you try to do everything on your own, even the elaborate tower will collapse one day.”

Woong!

Strong energy was released from Luke who had a smile on his face and Karen who seemed sulky.

The Aether Globes in the hearts of the two began to pulsate.

When the two suddenly looked like they wanted to duel, Hwang Bo-sung held them back.

“Your Majesty, you shouldn’t so that! Please step back!”

“Get out of my way! I need to get rid of that tomboy attitude she is developing these days!”

“Don’t bother, Uncle Hwang Bo-sung!”

Frighteningly, the two disappeared in front of Hwang Bo-sung.

They didn’t go too far.

The two of them appeared in the sky right above the camp and pulled out their weapons.

“If you lose to me, you go to your mother right away.”

“If dad loses to me, he needs to take me along with him.”

And with that, their conversation ended.

The two of them began to attack each other with the speed of lightning.

When Luke used Dark Bullets, Karen would set off everything with Holy Bullets.

Luke narrowed the distance between them using Blink. He then used Gold Sword. Karen too would create an aura to bounce off the attack from her hair ribbon.

Kang!

The moment both of their attacks collided, gold sparks would splatter.

“Huh, that was pretty good.”

“Did you think I came here to play?”

From Karen’s ribbon, an aura rose like a whip.

The aura drove toward Luke like a violent viper.

‘The Southern Continent’s sword? No, this is the change of the Gold Sword from the Southern Continent.’

Yeon Gu-ram’s Gold Light God Sword.

That too the second half.

It wasn’t known where she learned it, but Karen had refined it and changed it to suit her own combat style, just as Luke did.

‘Marvelous. She is my daughter after all.’

Luke, who felt a little good, concentrated on stopping Karen’s attacks.

Hwang Bo-sung who was watching their battle clicked his tongue.

“Tch, how are they…”

“It is because they are very much alike.”

Erwin responded as she went close to him.

It seemed like it wasn’t just their appearance, but their personalities and abilities were similar as well.

Unlike Hwang Bo-sung who was shaking his head and sighing, she smiled.

Even though they were arguing, they felt like they were developing a very good relationship.
