Many of Van’s mistakes were false accusations, but the mistake he committed against Marquis Müller was not one of them.
It was 100% pure, it was Ban’s fault.
‘Let’s apologize later. First of all, the situation is urgent.’
“I see you, His Excellency the Marquis. Since the situation is urgent, I will explain briefly. Please stop the demons who have run amok with the demon sword over there.”
“why me?”
“… “Marquis?”
“Even though I am retired, my sword is only for Your Majesty the Emperor. But why should I take up the sword for scum like you?”
I narrowed my eyebrows.
“Is this because of the rudeness I committed in the past? I sincerely apologize for my remarks. “I was immature.”
“Don’t misunderstand. Do you think I’m only doing this because of resentment from the past? “It’s because it doesn’t make sense.”
“… “Do you mean Suzy?”
Marquis Müller picked up his nose.
“As I said, I am the imperial sword. The reason I came here was because I was wondering if there might be a problem with His Highness the Third Prince. But fighting a monster like that just for a scum like you? “Do you know how much it would cost me if I got hurt?”
I remembered Marquis Müller’s personality and swallowed.
‘Marquis Müller does not raise his sword for things he considers worthless. Especially in situations where you might get hurt.’
This was because they considered themselves the property of the imperial family.
“I’m not the only one here now.”
“Hmm.”
Marquis Müller had a sour expression.
“well? I can’t see anyone that I need to go out of my way to save? Randolph, my friend, he was a great wizard in the past, but now he’s nothing special. What about the rest? They are great people, but are there only a few people like them in the empire? Even if they all die, it won’t be noticeable.”
My face hardened.
‘That’s harsh.’
Former President Randolph said,
And Professor Bernstein said,
Even President Karak and the rest of the temporary professors,
It wasn’t something that could be ignored like that.
‘I think I know why Ban was so rude in the past.’
As you know, there were many times when ‘Ban’s’ trashy actions had understandable reasons when you look at the actual context.
I don’t know exactly under what circumstances Van was rude to Marquis Müller, but looking at Marquis Müller’s appearance now, I could tell something.
Ban’s outrageous remarks were probably both parties’ fault.
‘Anyway, now I have to convince Marquis Müller. Taking advantage of my experience as a sales king… .’
“I understand the Marquis’ loyalty. But, it’s strange. “Why didn’t you put on your glasses?”
“what?”
“I think you have severe presbyopia because you lack the ability to see people, and I think you need glasses.”
“!!”
Oops.
For the first time in a long time, the Black Flame Dragon’s anger showed itself.
‘hey! You have to cover the situation! If you don’t lose your temper now… !’
I blinked for a moment.

‘… Is there anything that won’t work?’
As you can see, it is not easy to persuade Marquis Müller in a good way.
From my experience as a sales king, in times like this, I had to use a different method.
It was a ‘provocation’.
“this guy… “Shut up.”
“I don’t know why you’re angry. “I think not recognizing a great talent like me is disloyal to the imperial family.”
“under! “What nonsense?!”
“Can you prove it to me?”
I raised the corner of my mouth.
It was the Black Flame Dragon’s luxury ridicule.
“Do you remember what I said before? No matter how strong a knight is, he is only a shield for a wizard. “I will confirm that with your own eyes here.”
“this guy!!!”
bingo.
The lid of the Marquis Müller was opened.
“I will stop that demon just once. If you cannot prove your words then, be prepared. Even if you survive in the hands of the demons, I will turn you into a bastard.”
Just once.
It was a ridiculous story.
What can you do against that crazy bastard in such a short period of time?
but,
“I also have a condition.”
“what?”
“If what I say is proven to be true, please apologize for the disrespectful remarks you made just now.”
Marquis Müller frowned.
He didn’t object or say he was aware that he had made a mistake earlier.
“You only get one chance. After that, I won’t get involved.”
Just then, the rune jumped towards me.
Former President Randolph and others exhausted their resources in a short period of time and were unable to catch him.
“Our class professor, be careful!!”
“danger!!”
Fortunately, Marquis Müller blocked my path.
Chaaang!!!
As the Demon King’s Sword and the famous sword bestowed by the imperial family collided, an explosive energy erupted.
“Whoosh!”
Surprisingly, Marquis Müller lost momentum.
‘Actually, it’s not that I don’t understand why Marquis Müller is trying to save himself. Even the five greatest swordsmen of the empire will not be safe in order to stop the Demon King’s sword from running rampant.’
From Marquis Müller’s perspective, the wisest way to deal with it would be to wait until the Demon King’s Sword calms down, even if it means taking some damage.
“Why are you keeping quiet? Don’t forget. “I only give you one chance!”
“Do not worry.”
I took a step forward.
Within the range of the Demon King’s sword’s momentum.
My body was vibrating.
If Marquis Müller hadn’t stopped him, he would have turned into a blood clot the moment he entered.
It’s a blessing that won’t last long.
It was okay.
I had something to think about.
“Open your eyes and watch closely.”
I raised my hand.
“There will be a brilliant surprise that will make the Marquis’ eyes light up.”
It wasn’t a lie.
＜Probability of suppressing self-destruct demons＞
-If there is a chance to cause a miracle: 100%
What an absolute win rate.
Yes.
I had a sure-fire way to win.
Now the opportunity has arrived.
First, I raised my hand and moved the mana.
Paang!
A strong backlash returned.
‘As expected, the Demon King’s Sword. There is no room to dig in.’
I looked into the method by which the Demon King’s Sword controls runes.
As one of the strongest magic swords in existence, it was so sturdy that no one could dig into it.
‘doesn’t care. Anyway, my aim was something else.’
“I would like to apologize first, Marquis.”
“… what?”
“Let me borrow it for a moment.”
I deliberately didn’t say what I was going to borrow.
Because you will find out soon.
“!!”
Faaah!
I worked my magic.
The problem was the type of magic I unleashed.
The Demon King’s Sword copied and unfolded the method of controlling the runes.
Who has he suddenly unleashed his domination technique on?
… It was to Marquis Müller who turned his back on me.
“this guy?! “What are you doing?!”
Marquis Müller widened his eyes.
“Didn’t I tell you? I will prove what I said before. For that to happen, wouldn’t the Marquis have to be my reliable shield?”
Yes.
I stabbed Marquis Müller in the back and placed him under my control.
Marquis Müller, who was completely unprepared, was caught in the act.
‘… ‘You’re not really going to use me after the fight, are you?’
I couldn’t help it.
Because I need to create a gap for the Demon King’s Sword.
‘We need to make Marquis Müller go a little more offensively, instead of just playing defense like he does now.’
It was impossible to treat her like a puppet.
Only rough instructions were possible.
‘The moment Marquis Müller goes on the offensive and creates an opening for the Demon King’s Sword, he will be suppressed.’
“this guy!!!”
Chaang!!
However, there was one unexpected problem.
Even though Marquis Müller went on the offensive, he was unable to win at all.
‘Is Marquis Müller not doing his best?’
I don’t think so.
This is because the Demon King’s Sword’s capabilities far exceeded expectations.
I was in a cold sweat.
‘If I do this, I’ll be ruined. ‘What should I do?’
At that time, this question occurred to me.
‘It seems like there was a gap just now to dig into? ‘Why did you leave it alone?’
Absurd thought.
Marquis Müller is truly a transcendental knight.
Even though I am a wizard who is not familiar with the sword, I dared to think of a lesson.
What’s even more absurd is that it seems like my thoughts just weren’t delusional.
‘This feels familiar.’
I swallowed my saliva.
It was similar to when the magic master’s abilities were unleashed!
‘no way?’
-‘The versatility of thousands of changes’ is revealed!
-Have ‘unparalleled talent’ regardless of field!
It was one of my skills!
‘I knew you had talent in other fields, but Lv. 8 It was said that there was an admonishment for the knight’s sword? ‘It’s too much.’
I made a confused face.
Of course, my swordsmanship knowledge is at Lv. It didn’t mean it was equivalent to 8.
It was a genius idea, a brilliant idea that caught one off guard.
‘What should I do with this? Even if I gave him advice, there would be no way he would accept it. Instead, it will only make you angry.’
Then, things changed.
Paaa!!
The Demon King’s Sword has spread its ‘vigilance’.
A Lv. that exerts transcendental power by placing those around it under its control. 80,000 unique powers.
‘What kind of demon sword is spreading its guard!’
Marquis Müller also gritted his teeth and stood guard.
However, the moment the two boundaries collide.
I saw a gap.
It was different from the gaps before.
It was a sure path to victory.
I sent message magic back and forth.
I shared my thoughts because it was difficult to explain them in words.
-Marquis, please follow what I say.
Naturally, Marquis Müller’s reaction was not good.
“under! You arrogant guy!! Now, how dare you even teach me, a transcendental knight?! Once the fight is over, I will never leave you alone… .”
But, he was so angry.
Marquis Müller suddenly fell silent.
He also realized the same gap I saw. Also, what I said was not nonsense.
His sword moved as if possessed.
Exactly what I had in mind.
The results were surprising.
Faaah!!
The boundaries of the Demon King’s Sword were greatly shaken.
“Huh, how did you come up with the idea to delve into this unity? No matter how great a knight he is, he wouldn’t be able to come up with an idea like this, right? “Unless you become an undistinguished genius?!”
A cry full of astonishment.
I thought about the answer.
‘Let’s answer carefully this time.’
“Didn’t I tell you? “I will cure the Marquis’ presbyopia with my brilliant wonder.”
“!!”
… This would be an acceptable answer for the Black Flame Dragon.
In any case, the boundary was shaken and the Demon King’s Sword also suffered quite a bit of damage.
A real opportunity has come.
I raised my hand.
“Stop sleeping. “You evil demon sword.”
Faaa
It was a control release spell.
-Laughing… Don’t… ! At best… Something like this… !!
After all, it’s the Demon King’s Sword.
Even though the gap was precisely dug, it did not collapse.
It resisted my magic with intense strength.
‘It is not easy.’
If it had been before, there would have been no way to do anything more here.
But, it’s different now.
‘I am now a 2nd rank wizard. I have two stars!’
One more star has risen.
Originally, for ordinary 2-star wizards, the second star was a tool for holding spells that could not be implemented with a single star.
However, it was different for me.
I can convert a two-star magic formula and put it into one star.
So, what role does the one remaining star play?
‘You just need to take on the role of amplifying the first star.’
In other words, the fact that I became a 2-star wizard simply means that I am at Lv. It wasn’t that I could perform the magic of 2.
Lv unfolds in my hand. Spell 2 is completely different from existing magic.
like now.
“I command you to kneel before the great wonder.”
Paaa!!!
