“If I had looked more uselessly, I might have slipped out of my seat, haha! I never wanted to miss it in vain like that.”
Dayphone, too, was only paying attention to Ron throughout the meeting.
There was so little change in his expression that he thought he might refuse the monarch position, but fortunately, that didn’t happen.
“The 7th lord is going to move right away?”
“Probably stay a little longer in the castle. I have sent a messenger to Enrok.”
“Yeah. Anyway, it was a lot of work. This time out was a much bigger achievement than the purpose I was looking for.”
Chief of Staff Daffon’s direct movement and heading to Seintea had an important purpose as well, but the only thought of Ron in Rashatain’s mind was now.
“You said you were a prisoner on the Acemoon Convoy.”
She had heard all of what happened on the convoy and the situation when she first met Ron before the meeting even started.
Even the way he murdered the powerful Garton all.
“Did you really not feel any special energy when you killed Kwon Seong?”
“Yeah, as I said, not at all. It may simply have been that I wasn’t aware of it, but it was less than ten steps away…”
“Hmm, then it’s not about magic.”
Pretending to be a servant, from the moment we first met him, Rashatain paid close attention to Ron.
But apparently he didn’t feel any magic.
“It would be absurd to say that I even deceived my senses, and there is a high probability that it is a ‘mystery’.”
“············”.
“Or maybe it’s a racial trait that I don’t know about. It’s only the appearance, but it may not be human. I wonder what kind of ability it is.”
Watching her mutter with a pervasive smile of interest on her lips, Dayphone asked insinuatingly.
“Why didn’t you find out more?”
“I told you. Because he wasn’t a worthless opponent. And Ron wasn’t even his real name.”
“Ah… is that so too?”
“Yeah. But, if you ask me about other things, can you honestly tell me?”
Rashatain knew that Ron didn’t reveal his real name.
It wasn’t difficult for her to distinguish the truth from the lies that were mixed in the other person’s words.
“Well, I’ve confirmed the things I want to check, so the rest is probably good… But I’d like to find out for myself once in a while. It’s a fun thing to do after a while, right?”
“…are you heading to Saintea?”
“Haha, don’t be surprised. I’m going to do it later, not immediately, when I have time. Dayphone You always worry too much.”
Rashatain shook her hand and smiled.
“Anyway, let’s watch it slowly. I’m looking forward to seeing what the new 7th lord will show in the future.”
***
A few days passed.
Life in the Overlord Castle was extremely comfortable. The food was great and the bed was comfortable.
If there was anything needed by the servants who were waiting nearby at any time, there was no reason to be inconvenient.
“············”.
I was standing by the window blankly, enjoying the wind.
In a large space like a square on the other side of the castle, I could see the knights gathering and training.
The reason I was still staying here without moving to the Seventh Prince Enrok was because I needed to clean up.
For a few days, I almost stayed in my room and spent a lot of time on my own.
First of all, I confirmed that this world had a different background and time zone from the Rasa I played, as expected.
It was 759 years in the Lachyronia Continental Calendar, exactly 5 years in the past.
Including what will happen in the future, I took out all the important or even useful information from my memory and made a note of it. so as not to forget it.
There was no burden on memos because no one was going to recognize the handwritten notes written in Korean.
And based on that information, a rough plan for the future was also made.
‘The most necessary thing is helplessness.’
The top priority, of course, was strengthening my specifications.
Even if I am weak now, I am too weak.
Including personal safety issues, there was a limit to what could be done with only level 1 force.
The instant kill skill is the trump card that can kill anyone as long as it touches it, but that was only it.
As in playing a game, if you can kill opponents and increase your level by gaining experience, then there is no need to worry about upgrading.
But now that the game has become a reality, unfortunately, that seems impossible.
If the experience point system remains the same, something must have changed when I killed Kwon.
In addition, there were no other systems such as stats, skill information windows or inventory. I tried to mumble into the air just in case, but nothing appeared.
Except for the two skills I had and the level display I could see, this place was just a game and a perfect reality.
How to be strong in reality.
Of course, you have to work hard and practice on your own. Just like those articles you see below.
But I couldn’t afford it.
After all, it turned out that even if I had a huge talent for things like swordsmanship or magic, it wouldn’t change anything.
How long will it take from a completely introductory start to becoming strong enough? Who else are you learning from?
After a few years, will you be able to barely get to level 30?
The knights at the very end of the Overlord Castle would have a much higher level than that.
Because of that, there was only one way.
You just need to acquire the kind of ability that makes you stronger in an instant without any effort.
Hidden pieces such as mysteries or relics hidden all over the continent.
Right now, there was one mystery that could be obtained just by going from this overlord castle to the 7th lord spirit.
They won’t be a means to enhance my essential combat power, but anyway, it was the only way I could amplify my specs in an instant in a short period of time. However······.
‘It won’t be easy either.’
As with any fantasy, the place where Giyeon is hiding is usually rough. So was this world.
Whether it was a monster or a trap, I did not have the ability to overcome all the dangers in the process and reach the target.
Use the power of the monarch to get someone who can do it to rescue him?
If there is no other way, I don’t know if I should really do it, but it was not certain and was a very insecure method.
Also, like a mystery, there were a lot of things that were impossible to get instead, and that I had to go to get them myself.
In the first place, it would be impossible for me to travel all over the continent to find the hidden pieces.
Therefore, a great helper was needed.
A helper who can take full responsibility for my safety by my side anytime, anywhere… Yes, that is, an escort.
Ashel Gronnhilt (1)
Level 70.
Considering this and that, an escort of at least level 70 was required.
Compared to the monarchs, the level was shabby, but in the first place, they were monsters outside of the standard, and even at level 70, they were actually quite strong.
If level 30 alone was capable of slaughtering 100 ordinary soldiers, level 70 could slaughter in a mass no matter how crowded the level 30 was.
‘It wouldn’t be a problem to save the escort itself…’
Even if you go to the 7th monarchy’s monarch castle right now, you will be able to find those who meet the conditions without difficulty.
The only question was how much I could trust them.
What I really want is a helper who will always be by my side and escort me, but of course, trust was a bigger issue than ability.
Just in case, you should have someone you can trust as your escort.
“······It is vague.”
It’s hard to find a position that doesn’t match your abilities.
Even though I hadn’t done anything yet, just thinking about the future made me feel like I was already blocked.
I let out a small sigh and buried my back in the chair.
Then, with a sudden thought, I called Kaylan from outside the room.
“I want to read a book, is there any place like a library in the castle?”
“Yes, it exists.”
I asked a question just in case, but the answer came back in the affirmative.
There is not just one, but several, and even the central library is said to exist.
Come to think of it, there was nothing strange about having a library inside the castle.
The Overlord Castle was no different from the Imperial Palace in terms of the Seinthea Empire. Since the name is Monarchy, the meaning is a little different.
“If you tell me the type of book you want, I will take over immediately.”
“Okay. I’m going to go by myself, so please guide me.”
“I’ll see you right away.”
Kaylan said something to the attendant nearby.
Surprised by this, the servants hurriedly ran to somewhere. I’m just asking for guidance, so what do you do?
Anyway, I followed her to the library.
Whenever they met someone walking down the hallway, some of them were surprised and silently bowed. In the mean time, I could feel the gaze.
I hardly ever showed my face, let alone doing anything, but it seems that rumors about me have already spread quite a bit in the castle.
‘By the way, true.’
Elves, beasts, dwarves, giants, and even some rare races.
There are basically a lot of humans, but here in Calderick, there were a lot of different races.
It was still a landscape with a sense of alienation, but this one will get used to over time.
The central library was beyond a few buildings in the building where my room was located.
The square where the knights I looked down from the window a while ago were training was near the path, so I glanced past it.
As soon as I arrived at the library, I saw an old man standing politely at the entrance, as if waiting for him.
Judging from the small body and the shape of the tail on the back, it seemed that among the beasts, he was a western person belonging to a rat.
“Welcome, Seven Lords. It is an honor for you to visit the Central Library.”
·························· Well did I say that I was in such a hurry to tell you about my upcoming trip?
The old man from the West, who introduced himself as the director, offered to guide the library himself, but he refused because it was not necessary.
I slowly walked inside, leaving the two of them alone.
The inside of the library was empty without anyone, so it was quiet without a single noise.
I didn’t know if it was empty from the beginning, or if they had all been expelled before I came.
‘It’s very spacious.’
Looking around, I could see why the director said he was going to guide me.
It seemed that it would take quite a while to find the book I was looking for as the books were not categorized in such detail by bookshelf.
But it didn’t matter.
I wasn’t looking for a book with a specific content, but if it was a swordsmanship book or a magic book, anything would be fine.
‘This is it.’
Soon after I found a bookshelf full of magic books, I stopped.
And after picking up any book, I started to scan it.
I had no problems reading the content at all.
The official language of the Lakronia Continent, that is, the language of this world that I encountered for the first time in my life, for some reason, from the moment I first possessed it, I was able to understand it naturally, just like my mother tongue.
“············”.
Of course, apart from that, I couldn’t understand any of the contents of the book I’m reading now.
The magic theory… it seems to have something to do with a mathematical principle, but I have no idea what it is.
‘I can’t do it anyway.’
I turned the page to the end and closed the book with a small click on my tongue.
I didn’t look for a magic book to learn magic at a leisurely pace.
Sometimes when playing games, you can learn skills from book-type items like magic books, so I was just wondering.
However, it seems that he was expecting too much to eat raw. Seriously, this is a complete scam.
After looking through a few more books, I cleared my mind.
After spending some time looking at the other books that had already arrived, I left the library with Kaylan, who was waiting at the entrance.
‘I’m going out, so should I make a snack or something?’
On the way back to the room with frivolous thoughts, the knights appeared again.
It seems that a considerable amount of time has passed since a while ago, but it was still a scene in which intense training was in full swing.
“···········?”
As I looked at them without thinking much, for a moment, I had no choice but to stop my gaze at one place.
It was because I suddenly found a foreign thing among the knights.
【Lv.81】
A white-haired knight who clashes with another knight as if in a duel.
The alien being was her.
That’s right, because I was at a level that was completely isolated from among the knights who were at most level 40.
I wondered if it had anything to do with it, but there was someone else who seemed that way.
Above all, that face, as if I had seen it somewhere…
“What’s going on?”
As I stopped and stood still for a while, Kaylan took on a puzzled look.
I asked, pointing to the knights.
“What are they?”
“They are apprentice knights belonging to the White Dragon Knights of the castle. They seem to be training at noon.”
If it was the White Dragon Knights, it was an elite force directly under the overlord’s castle.
By the way, ordinary knights of noble families are around level 30, but in Overlord Castle, they are apprentice knights even if they exceed level 40…
“······································································!
Oh, I remembered.
With that pure white hair, a knight belonging to Calderick.
Of course, there is a big difference between the game graphics and the appearance of reality, but it was enough to evoke a strange familiarity.
“Is that man the knights’ boss?”
I asked, walking among the knights, pointing to the man who seemed to be leading the knights.
“Yes, the Vice-Captain of the 5th Knights of Baekrin….”
“Can you call me here for a moment?”
Even if I thought about it, it was a very sudden request, so Kaylan looked embarrassed for a moment.
However, he replied that he would understand immediately and approached the knights.
Then he seemed to be talking to the man, and he quickly took him and brought him in front of me. this is power
