81. Choi Min-seo’s betrayal, Morgan caught in a trap
After notifying in advance that there was no hostile intention by communication, the Galactic Empire obediently opened the entrance while holding us in check.
Today’s goal is to negotiate with Dorado before subjugating the Rector.
I only brought one platoon of SSS-level villains who were in charge of escorting me. Lua, Lena, and Boksil are on Earth.
As I entered the ship, which would be more fitting of the word planet, I was greeted by Morgan, along with a myriad of advanced combatants.
“It is an honor just to set foot on the land of the noble Galactic Empire, warrior of an inferior race.”
“There is no business for you. Bring the strongest guy on this ship now.”
“Unholy bastard. His Majesty the Emperor is not someone the likes of you dare to have an audience with whenever he wants.”
“Didn’t you understand? He said he was the strongest.”
Morgan frowned.
Didn’t you know this guy was a rookie?
“hahahaha. Are you saying it’s not a gnarled eye?”
A low-pitched old man’s voice rang out. When I turned my gaze, Dorado was coming down the stairs, stroking his beard.
“I don’t think there was any contact with you, but red warrior.”
“Isn’t it the same for each other, great sage?”
“Get out of here, warden. Apparently, this old man has business.”
“All right.”
Morgan moved through the portal. Dorado manipulated the portal and guided me.
“How about a cup of tea for the two of you?”
Dora nodded. I entered the portal without hesitation.
The place we moved to is Dorado’s territory. It was a library full of old books.
“Sit down. No one has visited this old man in 200 years, but it’s crowded recently.”
When I sat down at the table, Dorado prepared two cups that were steaming up quickly and faced me.
“Did you say Georgius? Was the identity that defeated Dark Arthur the Red Dragon?”
“Don’t call me by that name.”
“Heh heh, don’t let that happen. But the past is like a stream of water, and as long as you don’t evaporate it all, even if you cut it off, it will always be connected.”
“Just tell me the point. I have a duel with Lacter after a week. Regardless of the process and outcome, you do not intervene.”
“Why should this body not do that?”
“Isn’t that what you originally intended?”
“Your ears are wide. You’re right. A duel with a strong man is what that Ractor child wanted, so there is no reason to stop it.”
Hee hee, Dorado seems to be recalling his memories with Rector.
“but.”
In an instant, the man’s tone sharpened.
“It is also true that the Rector is in charge of a huge empire called the Galactic Empire. There is an heir in the home country. Guys who were also in politics will do well. Still, times of confusion are unavoidable. What if you get caught off guard at that time?”
I fully understood Dorado’s meaning.
He was assuming that the outcome would be for Ractor to lose to me.
As a result, he is holding back the crisis of the Galactic Empire that will come.
Originally, there would have been no problem.
“You are in danger, Georgius.”
The guy was watching me.
It was this development that worried me.
Dorado is an executive of the Galactic Empire, but he is in a delicate position when it comes to Raptor’s subordinates.
It is because he is stronger than Ractor’s mentor since childhood.
Therefore, in the original work, it is a kind of hidden boss that appears as a side story after clearing the raptor.
The problem is that this is reality, and Dorado is not a program, but a living monster who thinks and judges himself.
It was a matter of seeing me and how to act.
And judging from our conversation now, he seems intent on stepping in and killing me by the time I defeat the raptor.
So negotiations are necessary.
“You are overestimating.”
“It’s overrated.”
“Where did the Galactic Empire, which ignored humans because it was an inferior race? Are you afraid that the inferior race will devour the entire Galactic Empire?”
“Other executives might have thought so. Rather, this body saw many possibilities in humans.”
“I told Rector at first, but I never thought of going to space. Do you know why?”
“hmm.”
“Because you can’t see beyond space, you can’t breathe in space. What’s the point of dominating what’s out of sight?”
“I don’t know about this body. You’ve spent your whole life exploring magic.”
“To me, controlling the universe is as meaningless as your wielding a branch to get rid of magic and become a swordsman. You bastards, like the universe, bite, suck, and take care of it.”
“Are you content with this little planet?”
“This is the standard of my world. To me, planets in the universe are not land, and monsters are not even living beings. I’m already on the verge of putting the earth under my feet. You guys are the last obstacle, so I just remove them. don’t you know Above all, humans do not have the technology to advance into space.”
“It’s technology.”
“We do not understand your magic system. I’m not interested. If you don’t believe me, I’ll hand it over to you on the condition that it doesn’t interfere with me and the Ractor.”
I put an item down in front of him.
A spherical essence that glows purple.
Seeing this, Dorado’s eyes twinkled. I don’t know where the snow is.
“Oh, this… ! It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such pure and highly concentrated mana!”
“It is the heart of Dark Arthur. As you can see, there is no trace of use.”
Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com
Gourada.
It was a trophy that had nothing to do with Dark Arthur, and was held as an achievement privilege.
Absolutely never used it. It’s a decorative item that has no place to use.
After he took it, he must be at a loss for a while, not knowing how to use it.
I might end up obsessing over this trophy for a hundred years. I don’t know if I’ll just study this until I die of old age, become a family business, or become a symbol of the royal family somewhere in the distant universe, but it’s none of my business.
rather fun
“If this is the case, that research… . Whoa. is it. Was this body overrated? Not understanding magic and magic is fatal. Mmm.”
Dora is worried.
If humanity is not harmed, there is no reason for this guy to go to war unreasonably.
To deal with us, Dorado would have to expend a lot of his stored magic power, and since he would have to interrupt the duel of the rector, he would incur his wrath and risk being expelled.
He has been indifferent to politics all his life. No matter how much you did for the empire, it would work against you.
Shall we pretend not to know and deliver the final blow?
“What is your relationship with the Ractor? Why is a strong man like you under Ractor? Wasn’t the Galactic Empire a structure where the strong stood at the top?”
“Nothing hinders the search for truth like power. I just taught him some wisdom, Lacter.”
“Is it a priest-teacher relationship? If you are a teacher, isn’t it your duty to grant the wishes of your students?”
“You must have a cunning tongue like a devil, Georgius.”
Dorado nodded.
“But it’s a theory. As you said, I will not interfere with the duel. In return, I will take this magic ball.”
“It is deferred. I’ll hand it over after the duel is over.”
“hahahaha. Did you think that this body would trust humans and make deals?”
“On the contrary, what would I gain by not handing over this toy to you? It’s just a stone to me. Being rational is a human virtue.”
“Hmm.”
Dorado eventually agreed.
“Prepare the place. Before the start of the duel, bring the magic orb there. I’ll cast a spell that will only break the seal once the duel is over.”
“i get it.”
Negotiations were successful.
Of course, there is still a possibility that Dorado will change his mind and attack after the battle with Ractor is over, but the win rate increases exponentially as long as you don’t fight both at the same time.
Now I have to go back and prepare for the final battle with Ractor.
Dorado muttered as he stood up.
“Hmm. You didn’t drink tea.”
“People do not call 320-degree liquids in mercury tea.”
“It’s a good leaf, but it’s a pity.”
It was then.
Kwaaang!!
An explosion was heard in the distance. It was the sound of a battle going on somewhere on the ship.
I had a bad feeling. There was no way the subordinates would cause trouble. They are elites who understand the situation accurately.
There’s no way Morgan will betray me now.
Is there a third force?
I communicated straight away.
“Report.”
“We are assessing the situation, Chief. No problem on this side. The entire platoon is on standby with mechas and spaceships.』
Prism God, the leader of the platoon, answered. Another communication came in. It was a deep dive.
『Sujaang! I think I know what it is! There, there!”
“Who are you talking about?”
『Cloaker, Ocean Saber!』
damn bastards.
I asked you to follow Choi Min-seo, but someone told you to make your own decisions and act.
After all, they are garbage that are as useless as nails. The subordinates who watched over these guys are also incompetent.
I’ll have to take care of it myself before the negotiations with Dorado fall through.
“Isn’t it too late to report? Mark their location. Wiretaps also connect me directly.”
After checking the hologram screen, I immediately asked Dorado.
“How will the realm of Eridanus go?”
***
Just now.
Chunk!
Morgan imprisoned Choi Min-seo in solitary confinement and sealed the lock with magic.
“What are you doing you bitch!”
“Your Majesty has an important guest coming. I can’t let go of four rude bitches. It would be better not to touch the lock anyway. If someone with weaker magical power than me touches it, it will burn instantly.”
Morgan neglected the desperate Choi Min-seo and was beaten by Jung Eui-seok.
After he moved to meet Dorado and negotiated, he reported the situation to Rector.
After the completion of Zeorgeus, Ractor said that he would not come forward to meet him.
After that, Morgan went back to his realm of prison through the portal to check on Choi Min-seo again.
And he frowned at the horribly broken iron bars.
That moment.
“Ugh… ?!”
A black, heavy aura weighed down her body. enhanced mana. It was the very energy that proved that he was strong.
“All prestige trembled, but nothing special, right? Prisoner.”
Minseo Choi stepped out in front of Morgan with a mocking smile.
“You, are you going to rebel?”
“Ahahahaha. How long are you going to use such a hard tone? Hey, you know what?”
Minseo Choi put her face close to Morgan’s ear and whispered.
“Right now, Kang Ye-rin and Ji Se-hwa are here too?”
Upon hearing that, Morgan’s eyebrows twitched.
Choi Min-seo turned around the staff with many skulls. Dozens of magic circles were wrapped around Morgan’s body and restrained her.
All sorts of curses that set bones, blood, and spirits on fire began to overtake Morgan.
“Ahahahahaha! How fun would it be if four years were killed by those two? I’ll be sure to watch until the end, have a good time!”
Minseo Choi pushed Morgan’s chest hard. Morgan was pushed by inertia and crossed the portal behind him.
and.
“Yerin, you monster!”
“I don’t know… ! Ursula was Morgan. It’s a tough relationship.”
“Fun. Before Choi Min-seo, let’s have an appetizer!”
Morgan witnessed Kang Ye-rin and Ji Se-hwa running towards him.
