Red Storm Chapter 148

Book 4-6.4

“Violet.”

“You cannot thoughtlessly enter the Hero’s Land. Just what did you do in there for a month?”

“One month?”

Yulian’s eyes opened wide at Violet’s words.

“To be specific, it was one month and half a day. We were lucky that Tuma Takaka-nim informed the Red Storm that it was not our incantations. If he didn’t, the Red Storm would have attacked us and ended up disappearing by our hands.”

Yulian urgently looked toward the Red Storm at Violet’s words.

After verifying that everyone was safe, Yulian looked once more toward Violet and started to smile.

“……?”

As Violet put on a confused expression, Yulian smiled once more before starting to speak.

“I am the savior of the desert.”

“The test is not over yet.”

Yulian shook his head. There was no test from the beginning. All the savior had to do was give the Shire an order.

Yulian started to speak in a quiet yet loud enough voice for everyone to hear.

“Violet, and the Shireans of the Shire. Listen to my word. Immediately start to sing the warriors’ song that you have sung until now and start your incantations for the great souls. The Shire is a place that must not be silent. Raise your voice and light your passions. I am now the will of the Shire.”

The Red Storm warriors who heard Yulian’s voice did not know what was going on. But Violet and the rest of the Shireans quickly started to do as Yulian had instructed.

The savior had finally been born. The savior was able to look past the trap of silence to realize the reason for their existence and the truth of the Shire.

Violet started to shake in excitement and she could not hide the joy in her face as she kneeled in front of Yulian. She then started to bow as she responded.

“We will follow Yulian-nim’s command.”

“Absolutely not.”

“That is what we have prepared for.”

“You do not need to prepare for it and there is no reason to do that.”

“There is no reason we cannot do it.”

Listening to Violet coldly answer, Yulian wanted to jump up and down in frustration. After understanding the strength of the Shire and the reason for their existence, Yulian’s decision was not to involve them in war.

The shamans of the Shire was doing something much more important than that. That was why the decision was for Violet and some strong shamans to join Pareia while the rest of the Shireans will continue to assist the heroes with their incantations and songs.

Yulian was satisfied with the immense amount of strength he had received from Venekan. He would have no issues with a couple shamans at Tuma Takaka’s level joining his ranks.

Tuma Takaka was old and had to remain at the large oasis, which prevented him from traveling with Yulian to battle. But that was not the case anymore. They could now go to war with the help of some strong incantations and hopefully end with less casualties.

Yulian had thought everything had gone well, but a problem occurred on the first night they were camping after leaving the Shire.

Violet had entered into Yulian’s paoe. The bigger problem was that she was confidently proclaiming that she was now Yulian’s wife. There was not an ounce of embarrassment. She was as natural as if she had been his wife for a very long time.

“I already have a wife.”

“That is normal. It would be weird if a hero like the Glow did not have a wife. I do not mind if I am the seventh wife. I must conceive the Glow’s seed.”

“Gasp!”

Seeing Violet becoming even more blunt made Yulian completely at a loss of words.

“That is the will of the Shireans. Why else would I follow the Glow? If I remained in the Shire, five strong shamans could have come with you. Please do not reject me. I have been prepared for a long time and have studied a lot as well.”

‘Study? What did she study?’

While Yulian was nervously trying to figure things out, Violet untied the cloth around her body and laid down next to Yulian naked.

“What do you think you are doing? Hurry up and put your clothes back on.”

“Are you rejecting me?”

As Violet turned her body toward Yulian and asked, Yulian moved his gaze away from her naked body as he responded.

“I am not able to take another wife right now.”

“Is the Glow rejecting me because the Glow does not need me?”

“At least as a wife I do not.”

“You are insulting me.”

As Violet responded while shaking, Yulian quickly put some clothes made of pina fur over her as he answered.

“How is this insulting you?”

“It is definitely an insult in the Shire. Furthermore, I am not only here for my own desire but as the representative of the hope of the Shire.”

Violet suddenly got up and started to run toward Yulian’s greatsword.

“What are you doing?”

“How many women can live on with such an insult? In addition, I am not just an average woman. I will die to wash myself of this insult and apologize to the tribe for not being able to live up to their expectations.”

As Violet answered like that and tried to put her neck on the greatsword with no hesitation, Yulian quickly swung his hand.

Yulian’s martial arts had already become stronger to the point that he could now freely move his hands, feet, and even the greatsword like Chun Myung Hoon had taught him to do so in the past. It was the result of being in the state of nothingness for the long duration of a month after receiving the strong power from Venekan.

A strong wind was created and gently lifted Violet a few steps to the side. She was surprised at the fact that something had moved her body against her will, but still managed to say what she needed to say to Yulian.

“I do not know what situation the Glow may be in, but you will not be able to bend my will no matter what you may say. This is my promise to you not as the Grand Elder of the Shire, but as a woman.”

As Violet took the lead before Yulian could get angry, the cat suddenly got Yulian’s tongue.

“I must conceive the Glow’s bloodline. That is my only personal hope.”

Yulian stared at Violet, whose beautiful purple hair was flowing as she kneeled and bowed in front of him, for a very long time.

It made him think of Grace, her pain, and her request.

Yulian would be thirty in a couple year. The fact that he still did not have an heir was definitely a problem.

“Then you are my second wife from now on.”

Yulian finally gave his approval.

Year 258 in the continental calendar.

Yulian Provoke, age 28.

Yulian who had gained the Shire and a second wife started to push forward Pareia’s development even stronger than before.

My goal for this chapter was to show you the fantasy portion of a fantasy novel. It ended up ending too quickly, but this chapter took me the longest to write even though it was so short. (It took me a whole week to write about 25 pages.)

Valhalla, Hero’s Land, The Land of the End, they all mean the same thing but I am a bit disappointed that I was not able to accurately portray the fantasy I was going on.

To be specific, I thought you would get bored reading about it and decided to cut it down significantly. My lack of writing skills played a role as well.

Once I wrote the whole thing, I realized that it ended up becoming a chapter about Yulian powering up. I personally enjoy the traditional stories from different countries and wanted to use it in my own writing, but I don’t think I have the skills to do that just yet. (Even after finishing the chapter I am still contemplating it ^^;) Even still, this was the chapter I had the most fun writing since I started writing >

Thank you to writer Yoo Woon Gwon hyung-nim, the author of > and > for helping me contemplate what the will of the savior should be.

I will continue to work hard for > to become something we can enjoy together in the future.

End of chapter.
