154 – Roses Have Thorns
The king’s day was simple.
Wake up in the morning, wash, eat, go to work, take a break, then eat and go to work.
After that’s all over, take a break.
Due to the nature of Shin Mi-bi, there was little interaction with outsiders, and there was little material greed in the course of living, so it was a possible pattern.
However, the pattern is a little different if you have your own daughter in it.
As soon as I wake up in the morning, I will check Mei Li’s news, and as soon as I finish work, I will immediately head to my room to see her daughter.
This routine was a kind of routine that the foolish king must follow.
Today was the same daily routine to keep that routine.
No, I thought it was normal.
Until I opened my daughter’s door.
“…?”
When I opened the door, what I saw was not just my lovely daughter.
Certainly, at the dinner table, there was a f*cking boy with a stomachache, who had feelings but no physical evidence.
Together in bed? Are there men and women? Of course, when I looked at it objectively, there was nothing that couldn’t be done.
Neither of them were full-fledged adults, but that doesn’t mean that they shouldn’t be in a relationship.
In fact, royals tend to marry sooner, so maybe it was a very natural phenomenon.
From what I’ve heard, that boy has a good reputation in the mirinae and is competent enough to represent the grade.
In other words, it meant that he had the minimum qualifications to meet his daughter.
But that was only in the realm of rationality, and my heart was screaming to kill that boy.
The scene where a man and a woman warmly get up from bed and the man touches the woman’s cheek was enough to inflate countless imaginations.
What did you do to greet such a fresh morning and blush?
The king fiddled with his waist to determine where his sword was.
Come to think of it, I didn’t want to look scary in front of my daughter, so I put it in the bedroom.
It didn’t matter.
It was enough to catch one person with bare hands.
“Ta..Daughter!”
I called Mei Li to suppress all my emotions and get away from her daughter.
“It’s a misunderstanding, father. We just slept together, and we only really touched the cheek.”
At that moment, the king exploded at the boy’s words as an excuse.
The mighty magic power emanating from the determination to punish that bastard instantly dominated the surroundings.
“No, Dad! It’s not like that!”
An instant moment.
To resolve the situation, Meili stood between the boy and the king in pajamas.
“That’s how it happened…”
May Li slowly explained what had happened last night.
I desperately hoped that this explanation would make the situation more docile.
++++++++++++
Around the time Lee Seok-hyeon was suffering from intense pain due to compensation.
While taking a walk at night, Meili heard the faint sound of Lee Seok-hyun.
She blushed at the thought of her night walk, thinking that she was all in one accord.
‘I should go with you.’
She liked going for walks alone, but actually, she was more attracted to walks alone at night while talking about each other.
So Mei Li immediately moved her steps towards Lee Seok-hyun, and she could see Lee Seok-hyun writhing in her pain.
“Seokhyun!”
Meiri immediately ran to Lee Seok-hyun.
“Huh?”
It was only then that I was able to confirm something floating around Lee Seok-hyun.
“What is this…”
It looked like armor, and it looked like it could be ridden.
A suspicious object in the shape of the right shoulder blade and wingbone of a bird floated around as if protecting Lee Seok-hyun.
Meiri did not know that this was the ancient weapon Lee Seok-hyeon mentioned.
Actually, this was something that even Seok-Hyun Lee couldn’t properly check.
This is because, according to the story of the Final Destiny game, this is the kind of thing that users will never get.
Shinmibi had to be destroyed by just two demons, and this ancient weapon had to be taken away as well.
However, fate changed because Lee Seok-hyun stopped it.
The ancient weapon started spewing mana as soon as it saw Meiri approaching, as if it thought of Lee Seok-hyun as its owner.
I can’t even see the power source properly, but it can release mana on its own.
How many times have you looked at that ridiculous scene?
Meiri immediately cast healing magic to relieve Lee Seok-hyun’s pain.
And the ancient weapon, which looked at it like a living creature, disappeared after a few turns around Lee Seok-hyun and Meiri.
Of course, from Mayri’s point of view, there was no way she would leave Lee Seok-hyun on the floor just because his treatment was over.
That’s how she brought Lee Seok-hyun to bed and spent the night with him.
“…This is what happened yesterday.”
After Mei Li finished talking, she called for silence as if everyone needed a moment to think.
‘No, that happened?’
Lee Seok-hyun was very surprised to hear Meiri’s story.
It seemed that I vaguely remembered it, but the story of the ancient weapon was very unfamiliar.
I thought I was going to ride, but it was in the shape of such a suit.
I wanted to ask more about the shape in my heart, but the situation was not good right now.
“…So, are you feeling better?”
Unexpectedly, the king calmed down quickly and checked Lee Seok-hyun’s condition.
I couldn’t say anything more about the patient and the daughter who took care of him.
“Yes… That, thanks to the care, I’m fine.”
It’s my daughter’s care, and of course you’ll be fine, or you’ll die.
The king managed to smile as he suppressed the words that rose to the top of his throat.
The eyes aren’t laughing, but the mouth is a bloody laugh that ascends to the ears.
Lee Seok-hyun was seriously contemplating whether his deathbed would come here for a moment.
Search ding dong deng I also thought for a moment that I would understand the current situation and activate it.
The king quickly continued.
“That’s good… Then… Get down there quickly, go back to your room and get some rest.”
This was a pure expression of ‘Get out of my daughter’s room, son of a b*tch’.
In my mind, I wanted to write the sentence as it was and spit it out, but my extreme self-control suppressed everything.
It was the moment when rational judgment, which a king should have, overcame instinct.
++++++++++
After the bloody situation ended and Meiri’s father left the room.
I immediately asked Meiri a lot of questions.
“Ancient weapons look like armor without a master, right?”
“Yeah, that one had the right pauldron and… Wings only.”
The fact that that type of weapon disappeared after spinning around me.
It’s safe to say that he chose me as his owner.
To get mana by catching two named mines in Shinmibi and even being recognized as the owner of an ancient weapon.
It felt like I had received so many presents that I wondered if today was my birthday.
“Ah, that’s right Meili, has anything changed?”
The question I am asking now is, in a way, the most important question.
It’s nice to be able to use mana, but that information must never be revealed.
This is because it can be used more efficiently if it is kept as a trump card.
In that sense, I asked Mayri, who is at the top of detection magic, to detect mana.
If anything has changed in my body, what is it?
If I didn’t get caught by Meiri, there was a high possibility that my mana would still be treated as missing in most cases.
“…Well, well, I saw it then, but I don’t think there’s anything special about it. I’m taller?”
Mei Li puffed out her cheeks, assuring that she too would grow up quickly.
“If you grow up here, it will be difficult later.”
“Huh?”
“Nothing.”
I didn’t listen closely to what he said behind the scenes.
I heard it, but I didn’t listen, and I didn’t bother to ask what was difficult later.
In pure Meiri’s opinion, it’s probably something like 15 gold.
However, it was taboo to ask that now, so the answer was ignorance.
‘Anyway, that means I can’t feel mana.’
Basic mana, special mana, black mana.
Now that these three things are in the body.
It has become a situation where I have no choice but to pay attention to others when I use my strength.
The powers that can be used in front of others are the infinite orbit, the spirit Pepais, and the spirit armor.
Since everything else had to be hidden, it was actually at the level of hiding about 70%.
He’s not a hero who fights while hiding his identity, so I wondered what he was doing.
From the moment he obtained black mana, he had to endure it, so he had no choice but to accept it.
“Oh that’s right, Seokhyun, do you know we’re leaving tomorrow?”
“Yeah, you know.”
Originally, there could be more, but I had to shorten the schedule because I had to prepare a lecture for the magic revolution.
If you sleep only today, you started as an academy tomorrow, and Meiri also knew it well.
“Then, shall we get a good night’s sleep and play a bit today? If you’re in good shape…”
May Li knew I struggled with pain the night before, so she seemed to ask very cautiously.
Asking the injured person was a little off, and the feeling of being dragged around was so pretty.
“There’s nothing I can’t do, of course I have to do it.”
Would you like to have a late lunch around 3 o’clock?
Speaking these words, I very naturally stroked Mayri’s hair.
I was surprised because it was so instinctive.
“…Seokhyun is a real player.”
Mei Li blushed.
++++++++++
“I was so surprised that I skipped the first lecture, but if you think about it, there are not one or two suspicious parts.”
Not all wizards defended the professor who started the magic revolution.
Those who were afraid of development naturally existed, and there was no law that a person who hated professors was a demon.
“I agree. You didn’t even use magic properly, maybe?”
A radical leap always brings envy and jealousy.
In that sense, the six or so wizards gathered here were all of the type who hated professors.
It wasn’t enough that they made all the magic they had made useless, even the way they looked down on the Mage Tower.
The arrogance of not taking care of any of the courtesy of seniors, which is a must for juniors, was so repulsive.
“All magic is a law, and of course there are rules, so how can you break the law and act like a monkey?”
It’s like a young person putting up a strange signboard called Dongdaemun and selling knowledge.
What is the value of such accessible knowledge, and who pays respect?
They were very reluctant to act altruistically.
A wizard should be looked up to by people and felt untouchable.
I was so upset that the professor’s appearance seemed to be as if the magic should always be with me in real life.
Magic had to be more noble.
“Why don’t you ask a question and ask for a magic demonstration next time?”
“That’s very good, very good! I think it’s someone with only knowledge and no practice at all.”
When judging a mouth-watering mouthpiece, there was nothing better than asking them to demonstrate it themselves.
You can do it with special magic equipment, so if you ask me to wear different clothes.
You could say it was a perfect plan.
“I’m looking forward to it, I can’t wait to see the professor mess up.”
“That’s right, we have to disgrace and prove that in fact it wasn’t a revolution.”
What kind of revolution is this guy who has never used magic properly?
At first glance, it must have been a tin can that only bought it, so even the amount of mana was slim.
The six wizards solidified that idea and dreamed of a rosy future.
He seemed to forget that roses have thorns.
