53-4. A relay race where you die if caught.
***
Locke sighed as he looked at his own reflection in the shard of glass.
It was the obstinacy and ugliness of the father, not the emperor.
She put a choker on her precious daughter who can’t be changed no matter what in the world.
I thought of this and that atrocity, and I tried to squeeze his hands.
‘My Fine has picked out a pretty useful guy.’
Just as a chrysalis metamorphoses into a butterfly.
I liked the way he threw off his grim appearance and revealed his wolf fangs.
Roque Grancia was sentimental as he watched the flying glass fragments.
A girl with pure white hair was reflected in that glittering jewel.
“Why.. Do you… are you not going to fight anymore?”
A boy’s emotions were clearly shown.
Shaky hands, tied left arm.
Even if the power was adjusted so that the person would not die, it is a state that does not make sense to wake up.
“…… It’s unexpected. Black Knight.”
A hero from another world.
I thought you would give up easily.
They are actually travelers. A tribe that would soon return to its original world if its purpose was fulfilled.
It was the same with the cult of warriors. A proxy chosen by the gods to capture the demon god.
However, it was because they fell into demon lords while catching demons.
A certain hero saw a person who tried to pretend to be the original owner even though his body and soul were different.
I also saw a warrior who came across the axis of time and was obsessed with the past he had lost.
For this reason, Roque Grancia saw a man named Lee Soo-hyun and wanted to try it.
The eye that sees the soul.
Because Lee Soo-hyun’s soul was strangely dark.
I had a feeling that it would be difficult to judge him easily.
“Jim seems to be an old man now. Being old and being stubborn is the only thing.”
Locke speaks while looking down at him carefully.
Maybe it was because he was overconfident in his own eyes. He was missing something important.
A pure white star is twinkling in Lee Soo-hyun’s soul right now.
“You have to live for a long time. Your majesty.”
A light like a stigma that illuminates his dark soul a moment ago.
At this point, even Locke couldn’t help but be curious.
“These glass fragments are all my daughter.”
It is clear that they have feelings for each other. How could I have been so frustrated?
I thought that I was not a man, so my hand that held the ax tightened up for a moment.
“Yes. Your majesty.”
My heart sank when I saw the awkwardly smiling face.
This freshness must also be a privilege that only they can enjoy. Older people shouldn’t interfere with younger people’s love affairs.
“If Bellin knew, he would be very rude to Jim…” .”
Locke opened his palm to receive the shard of glass and said bitterly.
It melts like snow. A warm temperature rather than cold.
I know because he had the Heavenly Demon as his ally during the war.
Because imagery is like painting over the world with your own emotions.
“Dark Knight, have you ever passed the Tar Dune Test?”
Locke began to open his mouth as he carefully looked at Lee Soo-hyun’s condition. If it was a person of this level, he would have passed enough and remained.
“How to do that.”
The conditions for other races to be recognized as Inrang are both very simple and difficult.
To like only one person for the rest of your life.
If I hadn’t kept that condition, the current situation would not have been possible.
“I just saw it now. Wolf ears and tail grow in your soul. Black Knight.”
In contrast to Fine, a soul resembling a black wolf sways inside her body.
If you allowed me to be with Fine without these qualifications, it could have been a big deal.
The Inrang tribe is a race that can become stronger or weaker than anyone else for the sake of the one they love.
What if Lee Soo-hyun left Fine and went back to her original world?
She could have cried all her life and gone mad.
‘Indeed, many of the Inrang tribes were like that….’
It was also common to make the extreme choice of ending her life by following her mate.
The same goes for Locke.
She herself was able to blow wind pressure with her hatchet when Bellin was in danger of being attacked by the dragon cult.
We should have talked more.
“What do you like about our Fine?”
“Ah, yes.. First of all, your smile is pretty….”
Lee Soo-hyun breathes as if it will stop at any moment, but when she talks about Fine, she tries to speak brightly.
This is absurd. It would be right to resent it.
“Who asked such an obvious thing? This is Lee Soo-hyun.”
The emperor withdrew his anger and slowly approached Lee Soo-hyeon. A halo of light created in his hands.
“Let’s talk properly now.”
The four white wolves made of divine power rushed and licked Lee Soo-hyeon’s wounds.
“Thank you. Your majesty.”
“Where did the spirit of calling you father-in-law go?”
The body of the black knight was quickly returning to its original state. It’s because it’s a direct lineage similar to Fine’s magic circuit.
A pack of wolves that look like a family.
They healed Lee Soo-hyun’s wounds this time, contrary to the situation he had been through before.
“… Originally, a wolf is a solitary law.”
Lock helped the boy, who was barely standing while holding onto the sword, and raised him up.
“Jim did not want to hand over this world to his precious daughter.”
Roque Grancia sighed deeply. It is now fully lived.
“As long as the Demon Kings are alive, this world will not be comfortable. Even if Jim dies.”
Wolves are animals that require one to be the leader of the pack.
As they live, they sacrifice themselves for the sake of their families, and gradually lose their emotions.
Because you have to move calculatedly and meticulously, and eat the weakest animal in the group that you have marked as your prey.
For him who has lived like that all his life, that black knight named Lee Soo-hyun was unusual.
“Why are you already worrying about that? Your majesty.”
Although she resembles herself, she still possesses an innocence that makes the onlookers feel ashamed.
“I got hurt a lot while fighting the mighty Demon Lord. This body doesn’t look good anymore.”
Rather, Locke was able to open up about his weaknesses.
“Fine is…. Do you know that His Majesty is injured?”
“No, never tell me.”
From noble mtl dot com
He continues with a frown on his face. The emperor who could not express himself even in pain.
“So, even after knowing all this, do you still want to marry our Fine?”
It was a side that those who coveted the position of omnipotence would never have seen it.
“Even though I have such a filthy father. Son-in-law.”
Two wolves with scars on their faces.
Locke talked while looking into Lee Soo-hyun’s eyes.
“… That word.”
It is still impossible to hand down the lonely throne to your daughter.
In that case, wouldn’t it be nice to put someone else on top?
“If you catch all the Demon Lords of the Cult of the Braves, I will allow you to marry them.”
As soon as he heard that, his son-in-law’s eyes lit up with life. Not despair or frustration, but a glimpse of hope.
“Really…. Is it?”
“Then, of course, before that, my daughter would have to face her feelings for you first.”
Locke nodded his head in response.
Like Pandora’s box, the princess’s heart cannot be confirmed until it is opened.
No one knows whether it’s love, friendship, or jealousy.

[Lee Soo-hyun♡ Fine Grancia 35% ‘NEW!!’]
I felt strange when I saw the love level in the status window that appeared in front of me.
I even got permission to marry, but only 35 percent.
It is different from Nex. Maybe it’s because Fine doesn’t really like me.
More than friends, less than lovers.
It was a love affair that jumped close to 20%, but I was also a human being, so I sighed with regret.
“Why are you doing this all of a sudden? Could it be that I regretted the unfinished battle with Jim?”
Locke speaks in an attitude of approving me. It seems like he was tested to see if he was suitable as a mate for Fine.
“..Nothing.”
I shook my head right away. If I fight that person twice, my body won’t be left.
Come to think of it, have relay races become useless now?
The purpose of holding the sports day has also disappeared. It was an event to hide me from Roque Grancia.
Still, I suddenly thought that if I didn’t win here, Fine would be sad.
‘..Because Fine has a strong desire to compete.’
The droopy wolf ears and tail, as if wet from rain, are eye-catching.
I picked up the Pandora’s Box that had fallen beside it again and saw that the lid was slightly open.
“..This.”
Golden light streams from the black box. A buff appeared with a 1% chance of floating.
「Last Hope.」
Strength springs up in the muscles. A body as light as a feather and a heart about to explode.
Just when I had hope that if I continued running like this, I might be able to take the lead again, I heard Laplace’s voice.
[The second runner of Team Helio just started!!]
Kinel struck first. Damn, is there any other way?
[Oh, I can’t see Licht!!]
Even if it runs like this, even if I hand the box to the next runner, it will be slow.
“Looks like Jim has caused a nuisance.”
A thick voice coming from the side. Roc Grancia talked while looking at the obstacle course ahead.
Yes, there was that person.
“Father, can you blow me away?”
It sounded like a crazy idea, but it was possible. He didn’t even use a foul because he fought Locke on the obstacle course.
“..You really don’t know how precious your life is.”
“Because if I lose this match, Fine will be sad.”
I hate seeing her cry because she is more kind than anyone else.
“That is a satisfactory answer.”
Lock thrust the blade of his ax aside. A sign to get on.
Permeability goes through and through—!!
I climbed on it and before long, due to the tremendous strength Locke wielded—
It was flying far ahead. The forests we have passed so far are passing by quickly.
“..Licht?”
“Pine!! Get it!!”
I immediately handed over the box I was holding to the white glass knight.
Catapult!
