-Stop!!!!
Drake, who once again made a one-on-one telepathic call, mentioning the name Sabrina.
Eugene had left open the possibility that Drake might have telepathically reached out to him.
But now that the situation is team play, Eugene Schneeder has decided to swing his greatsword like crazy.
But at this moment, his greatsword movements came to a halt.
The reason is
‘How does this kid know my mother’s name?’
Eugene Schneider's mother,
This is because the name of the woman from the Demon Tribe who married Ulysses Caesar and gave birth to Eugene was Sabrina.
As a very young child, Eugene Schneider never asked about his mother.
It was after I had vaguely heard that she was a demon, and the main reason was that I didn't want to embarrass my father.
Ulysses Schneider had a fairly liberal parenting philosophy, and from an early age, he and his son Eugene were exposed to slums and other places where people came and went.
The appearance of the Sophists was similar to that, and so, the fact that the Demons were regarded as a sore spot in the Empire was clearly imprinted on Eugene from a young age.
‘What kind of person was my mother?’
But how can I not miss my mother at all?
Especially when you're so young
Sabrina doesn't even have a common portrait.
So, little by little, doubts about his mother began to arise in Eugene's mind.
"Actually, I don't know much about you either. We just met by chance, fell in love passionately, and then I had you."
Eventually, Eugene asked his father what kind of person his mother was.
Ulysses also knew to some extent that Eugene was curious about his mother, so he prepared himself mentally and spoke to her in such an affectionate manner.
"Your mother desperately wanted to give birth to you. That's how much she loved you, Eugene. I remember the smile on your face as you were born."
Tsdam...! Tsdam...! Tsdam...!
Ulysses Schneider warmly stroked Eugene's head as he looked up at him.
Ulysses also seemed to be thinking about his wife for the first time in a long time.
Even for him, the memory of his wife was quite unsettling.
To maintain my image as a person raising children and leading an organization, I needed to stay a few steps back and observe.
However, when his son asked about his mother with deep longing and curiosity, Ulysses carefully took out what he had kept in his heart.
"If you want to see Mom, look at yourself in the mirror. You and Mom really look alike."
I couldn't even find anyone to paint my portrait.
Because I couldn't guarantee that you would keep the secret.
At the time, there was a good reason for it, and his wife strongly refused, but now Ulysses regrets it.
After a brief moment of reflection, he told me that Eugene looked a lot like his wife.
‘I take after my mother...? Then there’s my mother inside me...?’
These were words of great comfort to little Eugene.
Because, to that young mind, those words truly made me feel a sense of kinship with my mother.
“Can you tell me your mother’s name too, father…?”
Feeling comforted and more proactive, Eugene asked Ulysses Schneider his mother's name.
“Sabrina, your mother’s name was Sabrina Scheherazade.”
That's how Eugene Schneider learned his mother's name, Sabrina Scheherazade.
Ulysses told no one.
He didn't even tell his friends his wife's name.
however
[Sabrina Scheherazade's son? How amazing.]
Drake, who was under magical bondage, was mentioning the name through one-on-one telepathy.
'how,'
Eugene's eyes changed.
Until just before, he was a member of the Drake subjugation force and was completely absorbed in the quest.
But Drake mentions his mother's name
In that fleeting moment, memories of the past flashed before my eyes.
Eugene's eyes became eyes whose target had changed.
‘How does your son know his mother’s name!!!’
-Paaaa ...
Eugene exploded with a massive mana attack and charged towards Drake's face.
-Cheer cheer cheer cheer!!!
So Eugene stopped right in front of Drake's face.
‘What’s going on, Captain Eugene???’
Victoria looked straight at Eugene's unexpected movement.
[Answer me, Drake. How do you know that name?!]
Eugene asked the guy through telepathy, who Drake had walked by.
[You used that sentence to cast a spell, and because of that, I was able to read your magic and find out your true identity.]
Drake seemed to be interested in Eugene's reaction, and answered calmly despite the crisis.
The Mana Breaker created by Elizabeth operates based on Eugene's magic.
It was Drake who mentioned that the mechanism was the basis for him to notice Eugene's roots.
[That's not what I'm asking! I'm asking how you Drake guys know my mother's name!!!]
-Oh my god!!
Eugene thrust his greatsword towards Drake's face and demanded that he answer his questions properly.
[Hmm...]
Drake looked at Eugene Schneider for a moment in silence.
It felt almost like I was reading Eugene's memories.
[Is that so... Did Sabrina Scheherazade meet her death...]
Drake realized that the Sabrina Scheherazade he remembered had passed away.
"Captain Eugene, what's going on! Is Drake trying to brainwash you??"
As Eugene's strange behavior continued longer than expected, Victoria concluded that Eugene was being manipulated by Drake.
"Farnese! Vincent! Get the assault captain away from Drake!"
So Victoria ordered Farnese and Vincent, who were diligently fighting Drake, to help Eugene.
“Yes, I understand, Commander Victoria!”
-Dadadadadadadot!! -Dadadadadadadot!!
At that order, Farnese and Vincent quickly moved towards Eugene.
[I guess I'll have to push myself a bit on this one...]
Swish...! Swish...!
Drake caught a glimpse of the sight
Burnã ¡ã ¡ã ¡ã ¡Sudden!
His crimson eyes flashed brightly.
“!!!!!?????”
As Drake's crimson eyes flashed, the first to react was the sorceress Elizabeth.
‘What the heck! This ridiculous magic power!!!!’
This is because he has been using magical powers that far exceed expectations while in Drake mode.
-Whioooo!!!!!!
Soon, Drake's body began to be surrounded by a giant black vortex of mana.
-T-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t!!
-Thuu ...
-T-t-t-t-t-t-t!!
“Ugh!!!” “Eww!!” “What is this???”
The whirlwind blew Victoria, Farnese, and Vincent far away.
-Kuaoooo!!!!
Then a crimson mana vortex that grows larger
“Oh my gosh, Eugene!!!”
The crimson mana vortex swallowed Eugene Schneider whole.
Elizabeth, who had reached the place where the giant tornado had formed, understood the situation through the disappearance of her brother's mana energy.
‘For a moment, my body stopped.’
As Drake's eyes flashed crimson, Geumtaeyang's body stiffened.
The feeling was closer to a feeling of time and space stopping than of being under anesthesia.
Drake's crimson whirlwind that followed,
Victoria and her party were repelled, but Eugene Schneider was swallowed whole.
"Pitch-black darkness. I don't think this is what the inside of a tornado looks like. I wonder if the tornado is blocking my comrades and trapping me in this space."
I don't feel the whirlwind.
Although the body is still, the senses do not stop.
Drake appears to have created this sudden space by releasing enough magic to make Elizabeth's eyes widen.
‘Coming!’
At that moment, Eugene Schneider sensed a presence in the pitch darkness.
Jeokbuk, jeobuk, jeobuk, jeobuk,
"It's not Drake, it's a person."
Soon, the sound of human footsteps could be heard.
“Nice to meet you, Sabrina’s son...”
And then the being appeared before Eugene.
It was the woman who appeared after Eugene and Priscilla were locked in the pit.
“Is that your true form, Drake?”
Drake appeared before Eugene Schneider in his true form.
“Yes. Since I was born this way, I guess this is my true form. Hehehe...”
Oh my...!
Drake struck a pose with his arms spread wide as if showing off.
"It's puzzling. With such a powerful force, how could they have been playing along with our operations until now?"
Eugene's body is still frozen.
In other words, if Drake attacks, you will lose your life.
If Jinjeok had used this technique, the Drake subjugation party would have been destroyed.
"The current bonds only apply to you, who possess demonic blood. You can understand this as my power over demonic blood."
Drake was honest about the fact that the bondage techniques he used were very limited.
And that appearance is
‘Isn’t this after all an attempt to kill me?’
There was no murderous intent.
"Yes, I have no intention of killing you. If that were my goal, there would be no need to resort to such grandiose magic."
Drake could clearly see into Eugene's state of mind through his expression.
“I would rather say something helpful to you.”
Oh my!
Before he knew it, Drake had come to Eugene's feet.
“Does that mean that it’s positive for you that I listen to you?”
It seemed like a situation where he had no choice but to be swayed, but Eugene hung on to Drake's intentions.
“Wow... you’re a smart guy.”
Shhh...!
Drake raised the corners of his mouth as if he was quite satisfied.
“Then let go of these bonds. Show at least a modicum of good faith.”
Eugene, feeling that his words were being accepted, demanded to be released.
“Okay, I thought he was just a kid who might run wild, but it’s a different story if he’s a kid with a good head on his shoulders.”
Oh my...!
Drake reached out his hand towards Eugene.
Then Eugene was freed from his bonds.
"Let me hear what you want to tell me. And how do you know my mother's name?"
Thuu ...
Eugene said, slamming the greatsword in his hand into the ground.
His primary goal now is not the battle with Drake, but his mother Sabrina.
Given Drake's attitude, it seemed easier to counter his intentions than to point a knife at him.
“I had a very brief time, a long time ago, when I was close to your mother.”
So Drake started telling her why she knew Eugene's mother, Sabrina Scheherazade.
“It was around the time when the seeds of the light warrior within your mother’s body began to manifest little by little.”
Eugene Schneider, who thought he would lead Drake with his characteristic eloquence,
But the keyword that Drake brought out about Sabrina Scheherazade was quite shocking.
