The illusion was shattered like a midsumr night’s dream.
The remains of the first emperor were seen with his chin still intact.
Ruid lowered his head while holding his head.
My head was confused.
-Please destroy the empire.
A voice that still sounds vivid.
Ruid closed his eyes tightly. The aftereffects of the 5th magic fell entirely upon him.
The caster of the 5th spell is not Ruid. All of this was Delrin’s magic. Above all, it borrows the magical power of the heart of the ‘Blue Dragon’.
Delrin’s earnestness remains in my heart. Ruid instinctively knew. It will take a very long ti to shake off this lingering feeling.
‘How dare that scum.’
Even minus the magic aftereffects – pity for Delrin. Disgust toward the first emperor rose.
It was a feeling close to instinct. The influence of ‘ancestors’ on ‘descendants’ was greater than expected.
Ruid began speaking sowhat incoherently.
“…If you were Irene, you would have destroyed the empire without hesitation, right?”
“I guess so. That child would definitely like it. “I have a good cause.”
Victoria thought for a mont and nodded.
“You must have arrived at the island by now riding a wyvern.”
“Sister Alia will be against it.”
“okay. Because Alia is a good girl. “So, how about Louis?”
“I…”
It is not difficult to make Delrin’s wish co true.
As she said, there is enough power. There is no need to attack directly, and if the northern defense line is opened, the empire will self-destruct.
But…
‘People are not guilty of anything now.’
If soone were to ask that you deserve to die because of the sins of your ancestors, Ruid would feel unfair.
Because there is nothing wrong with you. It was the sa. The current emperor, Lucius, did nothing, although he did plot so unpleasant things.
Ruid, who had been silent for a while, asked in a trembling voice.
“I do not know. “What should I do?”
Then, Victoria spoke.
“Louis, look at .”
Only then did Ruid raise his head.
Victoria was holding both of her hands and making eye contact.
Her blue eyes were unwavering, unwavering.
“There is no reason for you to choose.”
“….”
“You are not yet old enough to take responsibility for sothing.”
Victoria patted Luid with a smile and stood up.
Ruid looked up at Victoria. It looked unusually big.
“Don’t worry too much. Louis just needs to stay like this.”
To be honest, my desire to do so was like a chimney.
‘…It’s not a problem that can be solved by leaving it to soone like it is now.’
I am also confident that I can use the 5th magic.
Only she knows the future, which neither Victoria nor Irene know.
Who can I postpone this to?
Luid had no sense of responsibility, but this ti it was different.
‘I have to choose.’
“if.”
Ruid took a deep breath and asked seriously.
“What will we do if Archmage Delrin appears as our enemy?”
“huh?”
“…What do you think we will do if Delrin cos back alive and turns out to be our enemy?”
“If you don’t tell exactly, I can’t give you a proper answer.”
Ruid hesitated for a mont and then said ‘certain information.’
“Sothing like a warlock resurrecting Delrin.”
“That is definitely a difficult problem. Louis. but.”
Victoria approached the emperor without hesitation. He closed his left hand and stretched out his hand towards the emperor.
bang!
The sound of an explosion was heard and the emperor’s remains were shattered into pieces.
“…!”
Ruid opened his eyes wide.
Victoria looked at Ruid and said coldly.
“There is only one way of behavior that Windsor must adhere to.”
It was a cold appearance that Ruid had never seen before.
“We live only for ourselves. Justice, cause, cause. “Windsor has no such noble duties.”
Victoria didn’t say anything, but it seed as if she was saying this.
Was this a sufficient answer?
**
I ca out of the grave and walked hand in hand with Victoria.
A barracks with a fire was visible amidst the snowstorm.
‘It’s not an issue to judge easily. First of all, it’s important to watch. … Let’s act like we normally do.’
Ruid postponed his choice.
However, the procrastination was not because of laziness or bother like before.
There is sothing to see.
How far did the episodes of the original novel progress?
In particular, we must understand how far the warlock’s movents have progressed.
You can’t make a hasty decision without seeing that.
first of all.
“…mama. Please keep it a secret from Irene. And, I want you to leave this matter to .”
Be careful with Irene, who is the most dangerous person in this job.
Irene was very quick-witted, so I had to be especially careful.
“Sure.”
Victoria nodded with an indifferent expression.
It was very reassuring.
‘Now that I think about it…’
I rembered that I didn’t ask the most important thing.
“…What do you think, Mama?”
“huh?”
“I don’t think I actually know what Mama thinks. As the Duke of Windsor, what do you think? “This incident.”
Victoria said, looking straight ahead.
“If Delrin is truly our ancestor, it is natural to avenge the grudge that has been passed down for generations. “Our strength and life in the North were built thanks to our ancestors.”
Victoria spoke kindly to the surprised Ruid.
“But this is only my opinion as the Duke of Windsor.”
Victoria removed the hair from Ruid’s cheek.
“As a parent of a child, I don’t really want to make a choice. “War is crueler than you think.”
Ruid spoke in a low voice.
“There is no need for you to go against your duties as the Duke of Windsor because of .”
Victoria said playfully.
“Getting rid of the empire is not sothing that must be done. “I sotis seem to forget, but the Duke of Windsor is also an aristocrat of the empire.”
“Well, that’s the case.”
“In other words, it’s half and half, Louis. Neither one can be said to be best. By the way, you didn’t actually answer the question.”
Arrived at the barracks. I saw a knight running. Victoria patted Ruid and smiled softly, reassuring him.
“I just hope our Louis lives a happier life. “This is my opinion.”
Ruid suddenly had this thought.
‘Why does Victoria care about so much?’
It was completely different from the way Irene and Alia were treated.
Judging by the mories of ‘Lazy Ruid’, it was the sa. Victoria has been extrely devoted to Lloyd since he was first born.
Just thinking, ‘Because that’s the setting of the novel…’
‘I don’t know anything yet. ‘This world.’
Didn’t you know that the power of the House of Windsor ca from the ‘Blue Dragon’ and ‘Delrin’?
“Huh, huh. Vicky! “Did you successfully complete your mission?”
Vincent asked with a stiff posture after covering a long distance in one go.
“okay.”
When Victoria responded indifferently, she spoke quickly.
“There is an ergency, so I will report to you urgently!”
“Speak.”
“…Academy student. “Sophia Queensberry.”
Gulp, Vincent swallowed and spoke nervously.
“He died.”
**
“Hey~ I got hit this ti.”
Garrison of the 1st Imperial Knights of the Empire.
In the office of Chiron de Heaven, the head of the Imperial Knights, Lilith, wearing sowhat revealing clothing, spoke chattily.
“Oh my god, no matter how different my body was, I couldn’t even resist the slightest?”
“Lilith.”
Chiron said in a sharp voice as he scanned the docunts.
“Keep your voice down. “This is the inside of the empire.”
“Hmm. yes. “A noble knight commander who called a prostitute in broad daylight.”
As Lilith spoke sarcastically, Chiron’s eyebrows twitched.
“Isn’t it inevitable? With the banquet hall incident last ti, we managed to create a hole through which a warlock could enter – but even excluding the barrier, it is difficult to breach the imperial security.”
“I know even if you don’t say it specifically. But you know, I’ve been curious about Chiron for a while. “How are you not affected by the warlock’s barrier?”
No matter how long I waited, Chiron did not respond.
I just stared at the docunts. Lilith clicked her tongue.
“A boring man who still has a lot of secrets.”
He raised his head.
“It’s quite unexpected. “I would have thought that you, the greatest of the Seven Deadly Sins, would be caught so soon after starting your mission.”
It was surprising that they tried to change the topic so openly.
But Chiron is always like this. Lilith had no choice but to match the rhythm.
“I couldn’t help it. “Because it was worth it.”
Chiron nodded slowly.
“Of course, you are right. It was sothing that had to be done no matter what the risk. Is it really true? “I found the tomb of the first emperor.”
Lilith said seriously.
“It’s an obvious fact. “I’m sure it’s because I saw it with my own eyes.”
“…is it.”
Chiron’s eyebrows twitched.
“Even if I rip you to death-”
“If you’re going to talk about the sa old cliches you always say, am I just going to leave?”
Lilith yawned and said. Chiron put down his pen and looked at Lilith.
“That’s troubleso.”
Lilith waved her arms left and right.
“Then quickly get to the point. “The secret art of the soul failed, so I’m not in perfect physical condition either.”
“I guess I’ll have to go soti. Lilith. “You rember the location, right?”
“You better stop.”
Lilith said with a stern face.
“They are absolute monsters. In particular, the Duke of Windsor is ridiculously strong. “That cannot be considered human.”
A mont of cold silence passes.
Chiron nodded in understanding.
“Right. Then I will ask the next question. “Who made you like that?”
“ah. “I didn’t tell you this.”
Lilith excitedly told the story of her death.
“It was a very big fox. Mr. Ruid… big. It’s the little Confucius’ familiar. I thought it was just an ordinary arctic fox, but it wasn’t. It had nine tails and-”
“What?”
Chiron’s eyes trembled.
“What did you just say? “Did you say it has nine tails?”
“Uh… But? Is there a problem?”
It is extrely rare for Chiron to show his emotions.
Lilith couldn’t help but be a little embarrassed.
“…That traitorous bitch was on the move. “When on earth was Lark’s seal released?”
Chiron’s face was distorted like a piece of paper.
Lilith was curious. She couldn’t help but wonder, so she tried to ask in detail, but couldn’t.
“…!”
For a mont, Chiron’s life force was so dizzying that Lilith’s body trembled.
Lilith’s entire body stiffened. However, it didn’t last long. Chiron gave up his courage and spoke with a calm face.
“I guess I’ll have to change my plan.”
“Gye, are you changing the plan?”
Lilith smiled awkwardly, not wanting to show that she was scared.
“Wasn’t it ant to turn the system into a sea of fire?”
“It was planned, but there was no longer a need for us to co to the forefront.”
“huh?”
“Lilith. It ans that the mission you did is enough.”
“What is that… “Is it a sound?”
Lilith’s expression hardened slightly.
“It’s because of ?”
“I’m not reprimanding. “Did you say Sophia?”
Chiron looked at the docunts again.
“An academy student lost his life in the north. Besides, Queensberry is a fairly prestigious family. It’s a sha not to use this. “It is a very good cause to incite the aristocracy of this stupid system.”
“…Chiron, you’re smart.”
Lilith spoke as if she had never known anything.
Then, as if she was thinking about sothing, she quickly got up from her seat.
“Well, sothing urgent ca to mind, so I’ll go first.”
Chiron raised his head to thank Lilith for providing very good information.
But she had already disappeared. After wiggling his eyebrows, Chiron closed the docunt.
I closed my eyes for a mont and enjoyed the afterglow, then took sothing out of my pocket.
One of the three holy relics.
Delrin’s tears.
“It’s not long until I et you.”
Chiron muttered as he carefully brushed aside the small crystal.
“Our master. “The source of all magic. The beginning of black magic.”
He smiled with joy.
“The great archmage, Delrin.”
