Episode 60.
The match against Karak ended happily.
Karak, a great swordsman, was the best sword expert, but his sword skills were not good.
It was a test that actively utilized innate physical abilities.
A test like that can’t beat me.
‘That’s right, my mana breathing method dramatically increases my physical abilities.’
This mana breathing method, which is believed to have been left by the owner of the exorcism sword, was very effective.

Not only does it improve wound healing, but it also improves physical abilities.
Power could be amplified depending on how mana was turned.
Of course, it cannot be maintained for a long time.
‘If it becomes a power-to-force fight like that.’
The winner is the one with more power.
Karak, who was pushed back in a power struggle, was no match for me.
Karak was pushed out of the arena by my force and flew away.
“This is a bit embarrassing what happened! It turned out to be a completely unexpected situation. Karak, who is said to be second only to the champion in the Colosseum, is pushed back in a power struggle!”
“Cassias!”
“I believed you!”
The moderator spoke, and the audience cheered enthusiastically.
“Anyway, the winner is Cassias!”
The host announces my victory and I leave the Colosseum.
On the way to the inn, I met Toner by chance.
“Uh, toner!”
Toner turned to check on me. Toner, who confirmed that it was me, began to be wary.
“Hey, don’t you think I hit a fictitious me? I just called.”
A toner that relaxes your guard as if you are relieved.
Toner said in a high voice.
“Why did you call me!”
I frowned at Toner’s annoyed words. Then Toner quickly spoke again.
“Why did you call me?”
I was satisfied and nodded.
The reason I called Toner was simple.
“Because you were there.”
“Ah… yes.”
Toner, who judged that he couldn’t win against me, no longer challenged me to fight.
That’s why I felt a little bored.
After all, you can’t hit a kid who doesn’t really do anything.
“Hmm… Toner.”
Toner, who was trying to avoid me and go somewhere else, stopped.
“why···?”
“Do you like Dalian?”
Toner then vigorously shook his head.
It must have been misunderstood that it was a sparring with me.
“no no. not with me.”
It was a toner that stopped shaking its head and looked at me.
“Don’t sparring with me, just sparring.”
“Yeah… well… I like it.”
Well, I haven’t seen a swordsman who doesn’t like sparring. Even more so if you are a genius.
You can feel that your skills are improving just by sparring.
“Then, do you plan on competing with my student?”
“If you’re a disciple…the one who used that strange sword?”
Patrick’s weapon is a curved sword, so if you’ve never seen a curved sword, it might be a strange sword.
“It’s not a strange sword, it’s a curved sword.”
“How is the state?”
“Similar to you. What are you thinking of doing?”
After thinking for a moment, Toner nodded.
“Well, if it’s at least a disciple… I’ll win.”
Looking at it this way, it seems that this guy likes winning, not sparring.
“It must be quite difficult…?”
“Hey, I’m a genius.”
“You lose to me every time?”
“…”
Soon, the toner swung around and went away.
After sending the toner, I went to the inn.
And found Ephinia at the entrance of the inn.
“Why are you here?”
Ephinia pulled out a book in her bosom. It was the book I said was a clue to the devil.
“You were right.”
“Really?”
“I think it would be better to go in and talk about the details.”
“yes.”
I entered my room with Epinia.
And Ephinia told me a story about books.
“This is the summoning circle. It’s a magic circle that summons demons.”
“I thought so too.”
It was because something like a magic circle was drawn on it.
“The effect of the magic tool you gave me was perfect. There was no part I didn’t read.”
I looked at Ephinia’s neck. The necklace I gave you, that is, the magic tool, was hanging.
“That is fortunate. however···.”
There was just one thing I was worried about.
“Do you need a scapegoat?”
It would be difficult if I had to sacrifice something like a human soul.
“That’s… there’s a bit of it, but I’ll be able to do something about it.”
In an instant, my expression hardened.
I understand Ephinia’s situation.
Even so, such a scapegoat is unacceptable.
“Don’t make such a scary face. It’s not about sacrificing a particularly good person.”
“then···?”
“Criminals, to be precise, I will use death row inmates whose crimes are of poor quality. We don’t need a lot of human souls anyway, so we only need a few.”
I thought for a moment.
Epinia and death row inmates.
You can’t put weight on life, but the weight of death row inmates’ lives has become much lighter by committing crimes.
“That’s enough…”
It’s within the range I can accept.
“As I said, one or two souls are enough. The problem is the material…”
“Ingredients?”
Are there any other ingredients other than the soul?
“I think it will take a long time to get it because it is only a rare material.”
“okay. How long do you think it will take to get them all?”
“Maybe… four or five months? no. I need to hold on for half a year.”
does it take that long?
Even though she is the 1st princess of the Mycenae Empire, it is a material that cannot be easily obtained.
“What kind of material do you need?”
“There are many, but one of them is the life vessel, the heart of the lich.”
If it’s a lich, isn’t it a black magician with only bones left?
Moreover, it is very rare for a lich to be created.
There is a monster made of old human bones called Skeleton. I know that when a skeleton enters a dungeon, it has a very low probability of becoming a lich.
“If I get rich… I’ll have to accompany the Sword Master.”
Liches mainly use magic. Such a richness can be compared to the best sword expert.
“no it’s okay. I’ve asked for help from the Holy Empire before.”
Oh, then it might be easier.
Lich is undead. Because the undead are very vulnerable to divine power.
“That was lucky.”
“I mean.”
It takes half a year to obtain the ingredients and summon the demon.
That’s enough to be able to play against the champion.
“I should prepare too.”
The goal is to become a sword master before facing champions.
I don’t think it’s impossible.
I can see the end of the wall that was so high that I couldn’t see the end.
“I’m hungry anyway.”
I couldn’t even eat when I came back from the game at the Colosseum.
“okay? Then, let’s eat together.”
“yes···? Can I? Weren’t you busy?”
“are you okay.”
Following Epinia’s guidance, I arrived at the restaurant she introduced.
“This is so delicious.”
“here···.”
Just from the exterior of the store, I noticed that it was an expensive store.
But the money I brought was not much.
It’s a difficult situation.
“I will live, so eat a lot.”
Ephinia’s words like sweet rain in a drought.
I bowed down and thanked him.
“What, with something like that. Come on, let’s go in.”
When I entered the store, I was refused because the reservation was full.
However, as soon as Ephinia showed a certain card, she prepared a place for it.
I sat down at the seat the waitress guided me to, and I asked Ephinia.
“What did you just show me?”
Do you have an identity card as a princess?
I don’t think so.
The reason why I couldn’t stay in the imperial family was because of the problem of men and women. That’s why I can’t take out my ID card here.
“It’s the same card I gave you. No, should I say higher up than that?”
If Ephinia gave me a plaque, isn’t it a plaque that proves my identity in the imperial family?
But what about the upper row?
“If it’s higher than the one I got…”
“The imperial courtesy card.”
“A grace plaque?”
Epinia explained about the grace plaque.
Eun-Eun plaques can only be received by those who have provided great help to the imperial family.
It is said to be a plaque that proves that the royal family is a person who must directly repay the favor.
“To think that the imperial family had to repay the favor directly. How big do you have to be to get it?”
“Why, are you greedy?”
“I don’t like it very much.”
Epinia smiled at my honest answer.
“You can take it too.”
“yes?”
“If you save my life. No, come to think of it, you’ve already saved me once, so should I give it to you?”
“That’s Okay. I will receive it as a reward when the request is completed.”
“Then, will the reward be a favor card?”
Uh… that’s how you say it.
that’s kinda
I burst into laughter as if I had read my thoughts like this.
“I’m kidding. I’ll give you the grace plaque in addition to the reward.”
“thank you.”
After waiting for a while, the dish came out.
As it was a restaurant introduced by Epinia, the taste of the food was excellent.
Duduk filled his stomach and came out.
“I ate really well.”
“It was nothing. You buy it next time.”
“I don’t know where it is, but leave it to me!”
It would have to be food that the princess would not have easily encountered.
After saying goodbye to Epinia, I went back to the inn.
Arriving at the inn, I felt a bit of a fuss.
“Cassias! Come out now!”
Someone was calling me from inside the inn.
I hurriedly entered the inn.
And at that moment, I witnessed a scene.
“Kassias-sama is out.”
“Shut up, call Cassias!”
Karak, who played today’s game, was looking for me desperately.
In addition, Messiah was confronting Karak, who was likely to be three times his size.
And it was the moment Karak tried to push the Messiah away.
“How rude.”
Patrick and Toner said at the same time.
The two came from different places and looked at each other.
Soon, he shifted his gaze to Karak.
Karak went through Toner and Patrick in turn.
“What are you guys like?”
“I am the disciple of the person you are desperately looking for.”
“Because you are too noisy.”
A funny thing happened.
From nob le mt l. co m
No, more than that, why did Karak come to me?
Karak pointed to the toner and said.
“Ohhh…you’re gone.”
Karak approached Patrick.
“Are you his disciple?”
“It’s annoying to be rude. You must have never learned manners.”
“It’s funny. I came to request a rematch with Cassias.”
A rematch?
As far as I know, replays are not possible. At least if both sides agree.
I’m not thinking about a rematch.
“It’s a rematch…”
Patrick blurted out.
“Okay, how about a rematch with me?”
The words that came out of Patrick’s mouth were quite courageous.
But in my judgment, Patrick can’t beat Karak.
At that moment, an interesting thing happened.
“How are you telling me to get out of here!”
Toner, whose face was flushed red as if about to explode, rushed at Karak.
Like the best, Karak blew away the rushing toner.
“You will need an education.”
He pulled out the greatsword that was attached to his back.
I agree that Toner needs an education, but that’s gross. It looks like it will become a sea of blood for some reason.
Toner hit the wall and spat bloody spittle.
“I hate education.”
Toner had two daggers in his hands.
And next to Toner stood Patrick holding a curved sword.
‘If this is enough…’
I thought of Toner and Patrick dealing with Karak.
It is difficult for two high-class people to deal with one top-class person.
However, it may be different if the reward is a genius.
‘Should I take a look at my skills?’
It was a pretty expected composition.
