[Special skill]
[Ruler’s Pact 1Lv (Imperial Family’s Secret): You can make a pact with the other party’s consent. When the opponent breaks the pact, this character can feel it.]
[Coil 2Lv: Makes the opponent’s sword attack useless and counterattacks immediately. This move will never fail unless the opponent can read it.]
[This character has obtained the title of ‘Seeker of Truth’, but has not used it yet.]
Maybe the stare was a bit long. Perhaps my gaze was a little embarrassed, she cleared her throat and pointed at my head.
I brushed off the bugs that had burrowed into my hair and looked at her status screen again.
Title, [Seeker of Truth].
This, like [another original], is a reward you get when you develop your own characteristics to the ultimate level. And I can infer her characteristics through this.
[Seeker of Truth] is the reward for the characteristic [Truth]. Funny enough, this contradicts one of my two traits, [Cheating].
“What are you looking at?”
The thick voice broke between me and Adrine. Here, there is only one woman with such a masculine voice.
Drurrr-.
She walked away, dragging Ohamma’s head on the floor. I pretended not to hear her question at first, and Adrin said with a nod.
“You haven’t slept.”
“I tend to have a hard time sleeping at night, lady.”
Adrin, who was about to nod, was startled. Then he looked at me to see if he had heard it wrong. Maybe I was making a similar expression.
The opponent showed clear respect for Adrine.
“Do you know me?”
“Don’t make such a pretty face. Because I’m not fooled. and boy. I will ask you again.”
She came over to me and sat down on her knees.
“What were you just ‘reading’?”
My heart was pounding. Does she know about the [Status Window]? I want to believe that it can’t be.
I said, shaking my head.
“What am I… Are you reading?”
“You just licked your lips. Don’t say it was babbling. What did you read?”
“… Why should I answer?”
“If you don’t answer, I’ll compare the strength of my hammer to your head.”
Her sudden threat surprised Adrine, but not me.
“Don’t look so grim. Because I am not fooled.”
“why?”
“You don’t smell.”
“smell?”
Then she sniffed and smelled the sweat on her shirt. Then, after checking the ring on my hand, he slapped his large forehead.
“Ah, that wolf family? Did you lose your house while gambling?”
“… The official name is the Espertz family.”
“Hmm… .”
She looked towards the clock tower in the distance and said.
“miss. The night shift is for an hour, right?”
“… That’s right.”
“Well, that should be enough.”
… weird.
It is still in the early stages of the scenario for ‘Savior from the Other World’. At this point, Hamma Azime doesn’t pay much attention to students.
Her only interest is in her castle, and the castle serves as a base for the [Witch Hunt] event in the future.
By the way… .
Why is she showing interest at this point?
Her straight eyes were always looking straight at me.
“Wait a minute, shall we talk?”
You can feel the strong power in every syllable you speak. Again, she is one of my favorite characters.
However, what I really don’t know is the ‘this’ approach from ‘this point’.
There is something.
sea that has already been experienced.
The experience of a small deviation on the scenario route that I committed and finally ruined the main character.
Certainly, a certain variable that I caused is operating in this hammer as well.
You shouldn’t leave it alone.
It’s difficult to be faced with a sudden change like it was in Sabaki’s time. Before things get out of hand, I need to know that.

No, it should be blocked.
“Let’s try it, talk.”
***
Ta- Tak- Ta-
The reflected light of the bonfire shimmering on his face created a strange atmosphere. Above all, Hamma had a very unique atmosphere.
To put it plainly-
It refers to the atmosphere of a woman who can calmly step on the head of a snake passing under her feet and kill it, place it on the side of her hammer, cook it over a bonfire, and make a mouth-watering expression.
And at the same time, the stories coming out of her mouth were unusual.
Adrine was already immersed in her story.
“Didn’t I hear you wrong? Ong and Carnes?”
“yes. You heard me right, lady.”
Adrinne was impressed by the names of celebrities that came out of Hamma’s mouth. In a good or bad way, Ong, the great wizard, and Carnes, the Witch of the Plains, were figures who changed the war history of the Empire.
“So, you at the academy… Did you study as alumni with Ong and Carnes?”
“Unfortunately it is. They and I used to flock to the set. It was already 20 years ago.”
Adrin looked at Hamma’s face without being rude.
Admission to the academy usually takes place at the age of 18, so if she is true, that age is estimated to be around 40. However, Adrine showed no signs of aging anywhere on her toned body.
‘What is this woman doing?’
All I know is the conversation we had so far.
Hamma Crescendo.
A woman who dared to say that she would build her holy body on the battlefield of this empire, the plains east of Frantimo.
Perhaps that eccentricity alone would make him as famous as Ong or Carnes. However, Adrin had never heard of that name, even when she was in the imperial palace.
‘Maybe I’m a person who has no desire for honor?’
Even Bastia, widely known as the Gladiator of Spring, admitted in the last interview. It seems that the desire to become famous is at the base of his eccentricities.
On the other hand, the fact that she, who was doing something more peculiar than that, did not make a name for herself, could only be considered a refusal of honor.
Adrine spoke before her silence became awkward.
“It must have been a blessed year. Three wizards appeared in one year.”
“I do not know. For what one of them is doing, I don’t know if you can say I’m blessed.”
Of course, the ‘one year’ that Hamma meant was referring to the witch Carnes.
It is a woman who presents hellish weather to the imperial troops who are about to advance.
Thanks to this, the magicians of the academy had to constantly confront Carnes’ magical provocations. Otherwise, Frantimo would have become a more colorful city long ago.
Full of floods and earthquakes and heavy snow and heatwaves.
“I don’t know what the public opinion is, but… .”
Hamma swung her hammer like a frying pan and overturned the snake on top of it.
“I think Ong was petty.”
“… The only thing I passed on before leaving was the clock tower?”
“no. The fact that you left is because of itself.”
Hamma was not lost in her memories. she said, just trying to contain her anger.
“The bitch who tried to get rid of an empire she didn’t like, or the guy who left the era he didn’t like, look the same to me. They are not fulfilling their responsibilities.”
Adrinne understood the ‘responsibility’ that Hamma was talking about in terms of ‘life’ or ‘status’. But in fact, the responsibility Hamma spoke of was about ‘friendship’.
You could even call it her creed. Some stories have to be settled in one era.
20 years ago.
The three men and women whose magical talents were discovered at the academy each had the characteristics of [time], [construction], and [domination].
The problem was the last one, Carnes, who had the [domination] characteristic. Blackened, she gradually became a monster. And with her as a friend, Hamma’s choice was to stop her.
‘But Ong, you chose to run away.’
When your thoughts reach this point, you can’t help but feel bitter.
Ong didn’t even consider her and Carnes as friends.
Hamma continued.
“No one is born with a choice of time and place, right? Just like gender or race, time and place are not chosen, but accepted and nurtured. That’s why I’m saying those two bitches are cowardly.”
Hamma drew his hammer and looked at the browned snake. It shrank enough when the fire was applied.
“Well, they say that wizards are originally selfish people.”
Adrine felt that somehow she was defending herself, but she didn’t point it out. Hamma ‘sniffed’ and smelled the savory smell that bloomed over the snake meat. Soon, traces of conflict appeared on her face.
Adrin seemed to know what kind of conflict it was.
“You don’t have to give it to me, so don’t make that face, Hamma. To be honest, even in a situation where I would starve to death, it’s like food that I would think about three times.”
“It’s a delicacy to see.”
Hamma didn’t even recommend it twice. Puffing out her cheeks and puffing out, she almost tossed the ripe snake into her mouth.
While she was munching with a satisfied expression, the man who had been listening silently until now spoke.
“So, what does this long story have to do with your interest in me?”
“Ahh. I missed a word… . Ong made me a prophecy before he left.”
“A prophecy?”
John was perplexed.
is it a prophecy?
There was nothing like that anywhere in the configuration documentation he created. So he momentarily suspected that Hamma was lying.
“What kind of prophecy is this?”
“The one who can save this world will come.”
John felt like going crazy. The title of the game he had created echoed in his head.
“It is said that he grasps the world with language, and based on this, he can either protect or abandon the world.”
I couldn’t believe it.
To think that Ong was ‘predicting’ his true identity.
John decided to catch them first.
“… So, am I the savior? On what basis?”
“I said that the savior would come with the symbol of justice, accompanied by the symbol of the rising empire.”

Needless to say, the imperial symbol is the imperial family.
“Adrinne must be a pseudonym used by the princess, right? I don’t know how old it is.”
“… Why do you think so?”
John said he still didn’t know what the situation was. But at that moment, the [smell of death] stung my nose.
“This bastard keeps talking messily.”
Fish meal-
Ohhamma, who had been heated by the bonfire, was slightly submerged in the mud and emitted smoke.
It was a situation where John felt chills.
“If I set the rhythm to this point, will you stop the hour hand? The sword you brought. That’s Mulcan’s sword!”
The information she uncovered made Johann despair, and Adrine fainted.
