Episode 83
Games and reality have different conditions to consider.
That’s right, there’s no romance when you look at things like that.
‘But now it’s real.’
here is the back
It’s a world you have to shut up and live in.
I don’t want to live in a world that collapses after neglecting things.
‘More than anything, there’s no law saying you won’t go through the end after that… … .’
Even in the normal ending, the world is saved, but that’s all.
There is no law against suffering destruction for more practical reasons than anything else.
With Chapter 2, I was convinced.
‘I have to intervene whenever possible.’
This is not a game world.
As in the game, there is no main character who can trust and solve everything.
Lynia knows nothing. The girl who was originally born with the main character’s setting failed to overcome the attack even in the second chapter and retired first.
A normal ending to leave it to.
In a word, a world where the world is scarred and the people’s heart is thwarted.
In the end, someone who doesn’t like that should do it.
(Hmm? Is that all?)
‘what?’
(If it’s simply producing results, Xian, isn’t there a way to solve it easily without suffering more?)
‘… … .’
I frowned.
‘Let’s make the minimum efficiency?’
(Of course you know.)
You just don’t have to do much damage.
If you close your eyes to the sacrifice in front of you, you will have a chance to solve the case comfortably.
Commonly speaking, the choice of discarding cattle for the sake of the dead.
‘That sounds like a devil… … .’
(But it seems reluctant.)
‘I have nothing to do with that. … … If it’s because my strength isn’t enough, there’s nothing special.’
not omnipotent
Don’t forget that there are impossible things.
But don’t throw it away first.
(Why?)
‘Pricked by my conscience.’
Sacrificing someone, stepping out and not being confident.
‘If anyone knows… … . Help as far as you can. It’s none of my business to know someone.’
(Ideal and pessimistic.)
‘I’d rather say he’s like an old man.’
If he had intended to run away more than anything else, he would not have come to the academy.
On the day he became Xian, he must have gotten off the train and disappeared somewhere else.
Because there was a way to survive even with that.
‘Anyway, even if there’s no big deal for the time being, it’s not idle.’
(Cheer up.)
‘No, you have to cheer up too? Familiar?’
Gradually, we have to devise a plan to further improve Emily’s abilities.
The devil’s abilities grow in proportion to the Contractor’s limits.
Now that my abilities have risen, I should also consider raising Emily’s upper limit.
(Oh my? Are you okay?)
‘… … Well, I’ll only do what I can handle.’
If you let go too much, on the contrary, I will be stuck in the clutches of this demon sister.
Anyway, there is a lot to do.
I’m going home with that thought in mind.
“… … hmm?”
I noticed that the atmosphere was strange.
I wondered if the number of students passing by around me had decreased, but before I knew it, the presence was blatantly reduced.
The feeling of being deliberately avoided.
But I will not be the cause.
“that… … Black hair, I think you are Xian, is that correct?”
When I turned around, a woman spoke to me as if she had been waiting.
Those around her would not be those who had nothing to do with her.
“… … escort.”
Even in the academy, where it is allowed to bring attendants, there are few people who openly lead so many escorts.
Not to mention, even Elcia doesn’t drive around people so loudly.
Those who can do that are really limited.
Not to mention, there is nothing I can’t recognize.
“If what I know is correct… … Aren’t you the princess?”
“There is no need to be overly polite. It is this that there is business to the last. In addition, even though I am of the imperial family, I am now just a professor at the academy.”
Princess of the Ethanol Empire.
ruler of the empire.
One of the clans allowed to bear the name of the imperial family.
The princess, who is famous as a young professor in the alchemy class at the academy, calls me.
Mineil Mel Deleuros.
“But I am not looking to meet you as a professor right now.”
“… … Then what’s the matter?”
“It’s not bad news, so don’t be nervous.”
The princess spoke in a tone that was mild but did not want to give the other person a chance.
The dragon that came to me directly.
“Because His Majesty ordered me to come after hearing a very personal wish.”
“… … yes?”
Then at least it wouldn’t be a bad thing.
* * *
After making the academy’s rest area almost as if it had been rented out, the princess invited me to sit across from her.
“Sit down.”
“… … but.”
“You don’t have to specify. What’s more, if I listen to the story while standing still, I’ll be more embarrassed about what I’m going to hear from Your Majesty later.”
Well, that’s enough for bouncing.
I sat down casually.
The opponent is a princess? So if you ask me if I really need to be embarrassed.
‘No.’
no need to be scared
I didn’t do anything wrong.
It was clearly stated there. Come and listen to my opinion to give me a prize.
Then you can straighten your shoulders.
“But why, Her Highness the Princess… … No, Professor Mineil himself?”
Although she is the princess, at the academy, she is active only with her name as a professor in the alchemy class.
Normally, she wouldn’t go around the academy while blatantly showing off her status as the princess.
That’s why she put forward her status as a member of the imperial family rather than her position as a professor.
“Originally, His Majesty seems to have called you first and said he wanted to hear the story in person.”
“… … Why do you want me?”
“Your Majesty, Xian, is very satisfied with your talent and performance.”
“Oh… … . It is such an honor.”
You can’t pretend you don’t know.
The events in the dungeon and the events in the Forest of Blood, of course, must have figured out what I did.
Since she was blatantly pretending to be a genius, there was no way she could not have gone unnoticed by the emperor.
‘But in just two occasions, the emperor… … You mentioned my name.’
different from the game.
For what reason? Because I’m not the main character, but a different person? Or is there something else besides that?
At least it wouldn’t be dangerous.
“I ask right away. draft.”
“yes.”
“Is there anything you wish for?”
In short, what would you like to have?
It is a word that makes my heart flutter strangely, but at the same time, I am afraid for some reason.
“It’s what you want… … .”
“It doesn’t matter what you say. Whatever the order from His Majesty is fine, so listen to your wishes and come.”
“Only in the name of a reward?”
“yes. That’s all. But His Majesty seems to be quite satisfied with it.”
The emperor is moody.
A self-indulgent standard-type being who doesn’t listen to anyone if he doesn’t feel like it, and if he’s in a good mood, gives away a big prize even for a trivial thing.
“He considered giving a formal reward, but he said he would take it upon himself now considering your position.”
“that… … That’s good.”
Being called to the imperial castle and attracting people’s attention is something I don’t want, at least for now.
However, as if he didn’t feel comfortable going bare-mouthed, the emperor said, ‘Then I’ll give you something personally,’ and apparently ordered the princess to listen and come.
Indeed, you are a great emperor in many ways.
“You have been asked to listen to possible intentions, whether it be a bounty or something else, so please tell me what you like.”
It means that I will match the range of wishes I said as much as possible.
I, too, have a good understanding of the possible good.
“… … I’m excited to hear you say that.”
“It is rare. I have nothing to say.”
No specification.
By analogy, it’s like a lottery ticket.
I don’t know what kind of capricious Emperor Dang-Choi is, but to reject what he can receive and kick it with his feet is, in a word, madness.
Of course, if you tell me, I will say it.
“Or do you need some time to think about it?”
From noble mtl dot com
“no. I’ll tell you right away.”
And it’s not like me to flutter and flutter just because I got this opportunity.
Of course, just what you want as soon as you hear the story! I decided!
“I would like permission to visit the Tomb of the Oath.”
“… … yes?”
It was the moment when the eyes of the princess, who had spoken to her gently before, widened.
“now… … what?”
You’re being told to say anything and then you’re embarrassed when you actually say it.
… … I couldn’t help but laugh.
There was a level of awareness that I had said enough unexpected wishes.
(The Graveyard of the Oath?)
‘There is such a thing.’
That’s what I said, aside from money and other things.
Of course it’s worth it.
No, I think the possibility of being rejected is high.
‘Because it’s worth the bottom line.’
At the time of the game, even if the emperor’s reward event occurred, there were limits to the options available.
Gold coins, experience points, or items.
Either way is useful, but now is the time to be more flexible in thinking.
‘Currently, the options don’t appear like in games.’
whatever, he said.
It doesn’t mean that I’ll give you a grand feast, but it’s my freedom to poke at you.
‘It’s a wish that can be asked of the emperor… … .’
For a short moment, I was worried.
what is possible
It is something that can be obtained by walking a tightrope so as not to offend the emperor as much as possible.
And if it does, it will be a huge advantage for me.
‘As expected, that’s the only thing.’
That is the tomb of the oath.
A factor that is heavily involved throughout the entire scenario of this game.
One of the places you have to enter somehow to get close to the True End.
maybe i can solve this
‘Looking at the face of the princess, the odds are half and half.’
Excessive agitation.
There is no way that those who know the place would not know the meaning, and the princess would of course know.
So you will be surprised.
“If possible, I would like permission to enter and exit there.”
“Do you know what that means?”
“If I didn’t know, I wouldn’t have dared to say it.”
Among the ruins managed by the empire, you can enter only with the permission of the emperor.
It’s not just about playing.
If you enter there, go through some ‘ritual’ and prove your qualifications, you can get something important to be involved in the world.
In short, what you must overcome to live happily in this world.
“… … That doesn’t sound like a very good wish.”
“I brought it up with the intention of trying to say something, but if you think it’s too much, I’ll ask for something else.”
wherever possible.
The entrance event of the Tomb of the Oath was a bit difficult for me to achieve.
If that doesn’t work, I’ll have no choice but to find another way.
“Do you think it will be difficult as well?”
“… … .”
“Then let me hope for something else.”
To be honest, should I just ask for gold coins?
The more money the better.
Also, money is the best medicine to liven up life!
“then… … .”
“No, there’s nothing that won’t work.”
It was hard to believe that the words that came out of the princess’s mouth came from someone who had shown an embarrassing attitude just a moment ago.
Moreover, the language itself has also changed.
“You speak of a wish that catches Jim off guard. Ha ha ha ha ha ha!”
It wasn’t that the princess had returned.
As if people have changed.
Even though he sits arrogantly leaning back in a chair with his legs crossed and bursts into madness that doesn’t match his appearance, his aides are not agitated at all.
(Sian……. This woman…… No, he…….)
I was convinced when I heard the reason for the discomfort that Emily understood.
That’s not a princess.
No, I should say it was someone who forcibly took the princess’s shell.
‘Emperor.’
emperor of the empire.
Elpyroch Mel Deleuros.
He was speaking through the mouth of the princess.
