People in Terra, governing a bizarre little country

In the first half, no matter how many beasts you hunt, it serves no purpose other than showing off to each other, flaunting your family's abundant martial prowess or disgustingly good luck this year. The Manjusaka Institution won't accept your prey, and Yeragand certainly won't eat it. At least, that sacred stone won't eat it.

However, there are exceptions. If you play enough, you can host a feast in the square in the name of the gods of Yeragand. But then everyone in Sherag will want to come and get a piece of the action, so you'd better think carefully about your wallet and your cook's arms.

So, it doesn't really matter whether there's a sacred hunt beforehand or not. This sacred hunt is more like a formality, because the ceremony is called the "sacred hunt ceremony," which is why a hunt has to be carried out.

Ernst always felt that this was the perverse hobby of the person who set the rule. Although these matters could no longer be found in the archives, Ernst boldly guessed that the person probably wanted to cause some kind of hunting accident.

Oh, sorrow has overwhelmed you!

Ernst was very protective of his life. In order to prevent some snow leopards from acting recklessly and doing something outrageous, he resolutely set the course of action for this holy hunt!

"Sister, I'll go with you!"

Ernst said with a smile, his tail tightly wrapped around Enya's tail.

Enya glanced at him with a hint of helplessness:

"Why don't you go and do something for them? Even if it's just a little snow sled, they'll look down on you if you do nothing!"

Although she spoke harshly, she had no intention of driving Ernst away.

Enya is more humane than Enshio Deston. When faced with a choice between her family's requests and her own responsibilities, she always chooses to help her family in harmless ways.

Of course, Ernst wouldn't make things difficult for her. He took off the backpack that was supposed to be used to equip hunting gear, took out several fireworks and a handful of firecrackers, and handed them to Enya, saying:

A belated Harvest Festival gift!

Enya paused, remembering how Ernst had said he was glad he was giving her a surprise today when she gave him a gift last night.

"But what are these?"

"The fireworks, and the firecrackers too, I specially had Vina order them from Longmen, the quality is guaranteed!"

Ernst said, picking up a match, pulling it from his pocket, and lighting it as he explained.

"Like this, stick this into a crack in the rock, then light the fuse, and it will whoosh into the sky and explode! It will reveal all sorts of different patterns!"

As he finished speaking, the firework stuck in the stone emitted a sharp whistling sound and shot into the sky, turning into a tiny white line.

"Oh!"

A crisp explosion rang out in mid-air, and the exploding fireworks revealed a face that both of them were very familiar with.

“What good luck.”

Ernst clicked his tongue, then smiled happily at Enya beside him, whose eyes were already sparkling with attraction:

"Look, that's Ensiodis! He exploded!"

Enya couldn't help but cover her mouth, a happy and satisfied smile spreading across her face.

The smile became even more radiant after Ensiodis's image gradually distorted and collapsed as the light disappeared.

It was so dazzling it was almost eerie...

Ernst swallowed hard and instinctively took a half-step back.

Yes, I wasn't wrong. Sure enough, girls all like setting off fireworks.

Although Enya seems to like it a little too much...

"Anything else?" Enya's ears trembled with excitement, and her face flushed. "I want Ensiodis's! I'm going to blow him up too!"

“Uh…” Ernst looked at the firework in his hand, the type of which he didn’t even know, and then explained, “It’s a blind box.”

"I said it was a surprise, right? Blind boxes, completely random, that's what makes a surprise!"

............

At the foot of the mountain during the sacred hunting ceremony.

Ernst's judgment was correct; in fact, he even predicted some of the tactics that the SilverAsh side would take.

For example, most importantly, because the sacred mountain is closed during the sacred hunting ceremony, and all locals of Sherag are not allowed to wander around the sacred mountain during this period, not only Ernst needs to employ several non-Sherags as sentinels and watchmen, but Ensioudis does the same.

For this reason, the person in charge of leading the Snow Demon troops in this "Blizzard" operation was not the experienced Weiss or Matthon, but the Black Knight Mace who had no experience as a commander.

Jian knew very well that her troops were a surprise force in Ensiodis's coup. They were an unexpected pawn used to help him take control of the situation in the Holy Stone Square.

Therefore, the timing of her appearance with the Mountain Snow Demons is particularly crucial!

If it had happened earlier, before the sacred hunt was completed, and before Ensiodes's net on the mountain had been closed, resulting in either Actos Perroch or Ernst escaping their control, then this coup would have inevitably failed.

If it's too late, and Ensiodis has already framed him, and he hasn't shown up to help, then given Actos Perroche's typical Ursus temperament, he might just fight Ensiodis to the death on the spot. At that point, the combined strength of Horn and Courier might not be enough to withstand the power of that damn bear, Actos!

Their family has been doing this for thousands of years, so in a fight, they're not necessarily weaker than anyone else.

Timing is crucial; the timing must be imperfect. The moment you see the signal rise, you must set off immediately without any mishaps!

He silently warned himself that he must concentrate.

But as if even fate itself didn't want this operation to go smoothly, the Snow Demon, by sheer coincidence, delivered some bad news to her:

“Jian, we haven’t found Hurlus, nor have we found Yucatan.”

"What?" A look of surprise flashed across Jian's face, but he quickly regained his composure and gritted his teeth.

Hugh Ruth Blantau, and Yucatan Blantau, who married into the Blantau family, are the current second-in-commands of the Blantau family.

The reason why Ensiodis placed Ernst Shivaesh in an extremely dangerous position, Aktos Perroch in a dangerous position, and Latatos in a low-risk target gradient in his plan was because he had already prepared a contingency plan.

If we can exploit Latatos's weaknesses, such as Hurlus and Yucatan, then Latatos will submit obediently.

But now, these two people have disappeared?

"Any clues about where they went? These two didn't appear at the Holy Hunt ceremony, nor were they in the territory. Where could they have gone?" Jian asked.

The Snow Demon replied, "Someone saw Hugh Ruth run into the Sherag government office in Tukarim last night looking panicked."

Panicked? They ran into Ernst's territory?

Did she realize something?

Jian felt a bit of a headache.

Based on the information provided by Enciodes, and this isn't meant to be slander, but simply to tell the truth, Hurlus shouldn't be that smart.

Could it be Ernst who noticed?

I told you Ensiodis shouldn't have acted so arrogantly at the Tri-race Council. He thought you could make your brother surrender with just a few words? Did he think he was Noxis?

Nosis needed both hands to pin him to the ground!

"This is trouble."

Problems arose before the plan even officially began, and Jian suddenly felt immense pressure.

This means that the danger level of the unrestrained Latatos Brantau will rise sharply—if this woman were to unleash her full power, the damage she could cause would be far greater than that burly Ursus man!

Most importantly, Enshiodes was unaware of this information!

If Ernst had truly discovered Ensiodes's plan, things on this snow mountain probably wouldn't have gone so smoothly!

“Jian, what do we do now?” Mountain Snow Ghost asked.

Jian closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and then exhaled. After the turbulent rise and fall of her chest, it returned to calm. When she opened her eyes again, her expression had become calm once more.

"Trust Enciodes. Until he gives a signal, do nothing and continue the ambush!"

"I hope everything goes well for him—"

Before she could finish speaking, as if in a dark comedy, a small firework shot into the sky with a loud bang, then exploded into a brilliant burst of fireworks.

The fireworks were so dazzling, so eye-catching, so captivating. A master fireworks craftsman, deeply admired by Wei Yanwu, poured his life's work into this small explosion, as if to draw all the attention of everyone on the sacred mountain to this single point.

Undoubtedly, it was incredibly lifelike. The explosion was spectacular, loud, and so vivid that it seemed to depict the face of Ensiodis, a figure whose Originium Arts could bring joy to some and sorrow to others.

As they watched "Enciodes" explode in the sky, continue, and finally slowly twist and collapse, the silence of the Snow Demon and the Mace was deafening.

"What do we do now?" Mountain Snow Ghost asked.

Jian glanced at the fully armed man. Without even removing his mask, she could guess that his expression was exactly the same as hers.

"How to do?"

She really wanted to ask this mountain snow ghost.

"Do you really think that my three-time champion in the Knights' Arena, along with your group of newly trained recruits wearing some fairly modern weapons and equipment, can wipe out the two major families plus the Manju Academy plus Ernst, who have already reacted and are prepared?"

"Pfft."

She couldn't help but laugh out loud.

The Black Knight is not some little cat (Blood Demon Lord) who can fight the Demon King to the edge of the universe and the forbidden land of the subspace.

The theory of "a thousand MiGuru can kill one Skyfire" from Instructor Dobermann, a famous "military strategist" from Rhodes Island who has just transformed into a medical company, is actually feasible when applied to her!

"Laugh if you want to, anyway you're wearing a mask, I can't see it."

She stubbornly remained indifferent, raising her hand as she gave the order.

"Order received. Operation halted. All personnel on standby!"

Following Enciodes's dying wish... no, his instructions, the mace carried them out very faithfully.

However, if nothing unexpected happens, Jian thinks that the signal flare symbolizing the failure of the operation, representing Yeragand, should be detonating soon.

"Oh!"

Another loud bang rang out, and Jian Wuyan looked up at the sky, at the radiant, benevolent figure on the statue that could be seen in every household in Sherag.

Many years later, when she recalls this day, she will surely regret not taking the opportunity to return to Kazimierz and buy a few lottery tickets. Or she could find that guy who called her "a defective product from Letania who can't use Originium Arts," grab him by the collar, and tell him:

"Hey, you'd never guess what my Originium Arts are!"

"May all your wishes come true!"

P.S.: I'd like to recommend a book; it's been a while since I've written a fanfiction about the Elden Ring.

Shuke wrote quite a few books on the Law of the Rings back then, but most of them were abandoned. This one is still being written.

Having transmigrated into the body of Golden Godwin, and being familiar with the background of the French Ring, he immediately ran away.

not running?

Just wait to die!

Waiting for the night of the black knife, so that the assassin can stab him twice in the kidneys and turn him from a golden prince into a dead prince?

He went straight to the magic academy, intending to befriend Lani and at least increase his chances of survival.

During this time, he met Seren, who was also a magic apprentice, and the two became engaged.

But.........

“Ceremony, let me explain. Torina, Melina, Lani, and Marlenia are really just my sisters.”

"We're about to get married, and you're telling me you're some kind of golden Godwin?" Seren said with a grin. "Forget about the sister, what's with that ancient dragon?"

Chapter 87 SilverAsh: Yeragund's voice from all sides!

Shelag, the sacred mountain of Kalan, is the hunting ground for sacred hunting ceremonies.

After pulling the arrow from the neck of the fallen beast, Ensiodis took a deep breath and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Perhaps out of caution, Actos Perroch's forces kept a distance from Enciodis. This left Enciodis feeling somewhat helpless and amused.

It was as if he could stop himself.

Vales is my mole in your team. You can't escape my eyes at all. At this point, I should have already captured Hurruth Brantau and Yucatan. Once these two heirs of the Brantau family are taken down, Latatos will be like a rootless duckweed. As long as Ensiodis stirs up a little trouble, she will naturally drift towards him.

Of course, if she resists to the end, Enciodis wouldn't mind just changing the leadership of the Blanto family.

Hewluth is clearly much easier to control than Latatos.

He has firmly controlled the two major families. The only one he needs to worry about is Ernst, who ran away with Enya from the very beginning of the Holy Hunting Ceremony.

My younger brother is clever; he knows how to take advantage of the fact that Enya and I don't get along, and use this opportunity to distance himself from me.

But he overlooked one thing.

Even if they are far apart now, they will still meet again in the Sacred Stone Square during the latter half of the Sacred Hunting Ceremony. Enciodes had no intention of causing any accidents during the hunt.
