Chapter 68
In chess, the game started with the queen.
Unless the opponent is of considerable skill, it is usually easy to win.
“But why doesn’t it come out?”
Ruid looked at the students and professors who were confused.
The heart of the academy.
The main building and three outbuildings were surrounded by a black curtain.
“It’s difficult to destroy! “It takes 50 minutes!”
“people?”
“I can’t see a total of 8 people! “All the rest were thrown away.”
‘The kids won’t get hurt, though.’
Ruid, who is 12 years old but actually has the mental age of an adult, did not want children to get hurt.
That’s why the various weapons were given to me. Not only was it impossible to get hurt with those specs, but if you had it on your body, you could easily come out without being affected by the barrier.
‘It’s strange… Are you really going to clear this episode with Justin?’
Ruid shook his head.
Just in case, didn’t you tell Damon to kick Justin’s ass?
Above all, Damon’s personality made it impossible for him to help commoners.
“Then why…”
Ruid thinks deeply.
Clifford approached him with his back to him.
Unlike the professors, who were quite panicked and busy, Clifford was calm.
“Noob top bastard.”
“What’s going on?”
Clifford asked after a moment of silence.
“Are the children safe?”
“I’m safe.”
Ruid spoke with confidence.
Variables were eliminated long ago.
No one got hurt in the original, and he lowered the difficulty level, so it should be okay.
Clifford nodded.
“i get it.”
“…?”
And then turned around and walked away.
Ruid, who was wondering what kind of excuse he would give if asked to lift the barrier, blinked.
“Let’s just go towards breaking the barrier. “50 minutes is too long.”
“It’s not possible. What would you do if there was a hidden trap that exploded when this barrier was canceled? He is skilled enough to create a barrier like this. “If you rush, there is a high possibility that something big will happen.”
“It takes 50 minutes and it’s the same even if you cancel the barrier! Even if there is a trap, Kairos and Minerva will be safe. But it’s dangerous to watch when you don’t know what might happen inside!”
Phenicia bit her lip.
If the worst happened and a high-ranking noble’s son died, that would be the end of the academy.
However, if commoners die, they will be condemned, but their existence itself is not in danger.
The professors were leaning towards blowing up the barrier.
“Let’s blow it up. “This can’t go on.”
“It is dangerous to expose Kairos and Minerva for a long time in the great world of warlocks! The future of the empire is at stake! Vice Chancellor, please make your own judgment…!”
“noisy.”
At that time, the president stepped forward.
“The barrier is canceled according to the rules. “The bombing is dismissed.”
“Uh, why…!”
‘That’s why you asked.’
Clifford seemed to believe what he said.
‘If I get even a scratch, I’ll be in trouble.’
I sighed.
If this happens, I think I’ll have to step forward a little bit.
I believe in my own computational abilities, but nothing is more certain than seeing it with my own eyes.
**
Ruid cast a high-level invisibility spell and entered the main building.
The inside of the building was full of zombies.
“A low-level vengeful spirit.”
Ruid tapped and touched the zombie.
It crumbled as soon as I touched it.
“…If it were a game, it would say that. It’s weak after all. Even if there is just one Hersi, I will take care of it all.”
There were a lot of zombies, but that was it. Not only Justin had a hard time, but a wizard like Hersey could wipe out one floor of kids with one magic blow.
In particular, doesn’t she have the super unique item ‘Delin’s Staff’?
“huh? What is this.”
A book had fallen on the floor.
-Delrin’s Perfect Study of Magic (1)
“…Isn’t this an episode you saw in a novel?”
Ruid widened his eyes.
First, I picked up the book.
‘Could it be a huge piece of cake?’
The content of the future is just written down, or the content that has changed after your intervention is written down!
Ruid opened the book with great interest. But-
blah.
“….”
The cover fell off.
When I looked again, the cover was sloppily put together, and it was actually a different book inside.
-The reason why the devil and the hero fell in love 1.
AKA hiding a book in a book!
It’s amazing that there were people in the Middle Ages who used this highly difficult technology.
“…It’s ridiculous.”
Ruid was about to put the book down.
Swish.
I looked around for no reason.
Of course, there was no one there, and Ruid just squatted against the wall.
“Let’s read a little bit.”
There are genre novels here too. In this world where the only subcultures are classical music and poor plays that can put you to sleep in 10 seconds, this was like a drop of rain from the dry sky.
Oh, since this is fantasy, it must be humanities, not genre fiction.
“….”
At first, Ruid looked at it indifferently, but the pages turned faster and faster.
‘It’s fun, right?’
The writing style was easy to read and the story was interesting.
Just like that, Ruid forgot what he had to do and immersed himself in the book.
After a while.
[The Demon King smiled sadly in front of the hero Revennon. “We can’t continue.” Revenon grew cold at the Demon King’s words.]
“W-You’re saying it ends here? So what happens? I’m telling you to throw the damn thing away, Revernon! “Please protect Mama Xia!”
Ruid was indignant. I jumped up.
“I need volume 2.”
Unconditionally, unconditionally.
I couldn’t breathe because I was curious about what would happen next.
But that was then.
Quang!
I heard an explosion.
clattering!
The ceiling collapsed.
Ruid’s fur stood up like a cat that had been stepped on.
“Aaaah!”
“Damon! “What are you doing?”
“It is impossible for this body to fall. So he broke the floor.”
A familiar trio was right in front of me.
Luid’s body stiffened.
‘I shouldn’t get caught here.’
Because you need to read Volume 2 of Why the Demon King and the Hero Fell in Love!
Soon he realized that he had used an invisibility spell and heaved a sigh of relief.
[Huh? [Note…]
It looks like they couldn’t fool Miho’s eyes. Is it not a great spirit for nothing? Ruid hurriedly put his index finger to his mouth and said, “Shhh.”
“huh? “What’s wrong, Miho?”
[Lord…]
“…I didn’t know that Miho was a believer in Justitia.”
Ruid somehow survived the crisis.
‘Meet me here.’
I checked the condition closely, and everything was fine. I was able to confirm that almost no magic power was used.
‘What on earth are you still doing here?’
After listening to the story, it seems like it was a coincidence that I ended up on the first floor.
As Ruid went to look for Volume 2, he tried to find out the reason.
“Anyway, Damon. Can you help me solve my test questions? My sister doesn’t know. “Using your head is not my field.”
‘test…? ‘What test?’
Ruid was puzzled.
Damon said arrogantly.
“What good do I have to help you?”
“Hmm… how about this?”
Irina smiled brightly and raised her index finger.
“I’ll take over Damon’s job of cleaning the imperial front yard one day.”
“Hoo, are you willing to do that hard work? “It’s not something anyone can do.”
“If you don’t like it, tell me…”
“Okay. Please be especially kind to me. What exactly is the content of the note Ruid gave you? “Show me your stuff too.”
“The object is this handkerchief…”
‘It’s my handkerchief.’
It was a blue handkerchief used to wipe one’s mouth after eating.
It seems like Irina picked it up somewhere.
‘No, if you pick up someone else’s handkerchief, you have to return it.’
Ruid glared at Irina for no reason and realized a shocking truth.
‘I told you to take the weapon, but did you take it because you mistook it for that?’
Ruid was taken aback by something he could never have imagined.
“handkerchief. It even has Ruid’s name written on it. Well, the answer is obvious. It looks like the order was given based on your intelligence. “There are no difficult tricks this time.”
But what are we talking about earlier? Trick? test?
Damon continued.
“A message to mediate the fight. “The thing to pay attention to here is ‘arbitration.’”
“arbitration? “Weren’t you supposed to stop Damon and the commoners from fighting?”
“It’s similar, but a little different. Think a little broadly. “What was my test about?”
Irina blinked.
I couldn’t remember very well.
Hersy helped.
“I told them to interfere with what commoners are doing.”
“Okay, in that case, to intercede after seeing the wolf, simply put, to stop it if it goes too far. Among the students, you are the only one who can stop me. Taking that into consideration, I issued an order linked to mine. “Hmph, he’s more delicate than he looks.”
“Wow! “That’s what it was!”
‘???’
Ruid’s head was full of question marks.
These guys…
what on earth are they imagining?
It was already a total mess, but Hersy slapped his palms and shouted.
“I also realized what my test was!”
“Oh, I already knew. “Tell me once.”
Hersi put his back on his back and spun around with a confident look on his face. He seemed very excited.
“Luid’s instructions to Damon were ‘Disturb the commoners.’ But there is no need to prevent anything here. This is where my wand comes from. “This was given to me by Ruid himself.”
Hersi boasted slightly and waved his wand.
He wrapped me preciously in his arms and spoke softly.
“I can’t go into detail, but this wand is related to ‘equality.’ To put it all together, it means ‘obstruct the equality of common people.’”
Damon chuckled.
“That’s quite a bit of a headache. right. However, if I were to point out one thing, it means that we should educate the common people who dare to oppose the reward and penalty point system proposed by Windsor. Solving this case is a bonus.”
Ruid hit his forehead.
oh my god.
Oh my god.
The probability of my thoughts was more messed up than the novel I had just read.
**
Northern cellar containing 500 years of Windsor’s history.
Among them, the armory, which contained various goods and treasures, was full of weapons comparable to the imperial treasury.
“As we are sending it to a faraway place, we must at least provide ample support.”
Irene Windsor was prostrating in front of Victoria Windsor.
This time, I was making a final report to go and manage the Larden Estate, which was newly included in the Duchy of Windsor.
“Surprisingly, there are no articles that are dissatisfied.”
“The problem is that my knights are too loyal. Irene. Count them.”
“But wouldn’t it be too much to ask them to hand out divine-level weapons?”
“Things are fascinating. “You don’t know what’s good until you use it.”
Victoria spoke calmly.
“At first, give it as a rental. And if performance is good, tell them you will transfer ownership. That way, even if you don’t have to give detailed orders, you will move in the direction you think is best.”
“Yes, matriarch.”
Irene stood up with a soft smile on her face.
The two walked side by side and talked.
“Has it been a while since you came to the armory?”
“yes. “At least recently, the only time I went in was to polish Ruid’s sword.”
“You’re talking about the Sword of Winter. It was a present for my 10th birthday… and I haven’t seen him touch it since. “My son has absolutely no interest in swords.”
“But there will come a time when you will need it. Ruid often uses telekinesis. “If you use the sword by floating it in the air, the Winter Sword is the optimal sacred weapon.”
Victoria stopped walking.
A huge, frozen door appeared in front of me.
He spoke as he cracked the code using the Ring of Power, which only the head of Windsor can use.
“This is where divine energy gathers. Only the most valuable items were collected separately. “There is also a new window that was brought in this time. Do you want to take that too?”
“Another miracle-level spear has arrived. “That’s a good thing.”
Victoria said cheerfully.
“His Majesty granted it. It’s a spear called ‘Reginus’ that I’ve been eyeing for a while. Do you know?”
Reginus was a very famous spear.
“yes. Isn’t this a trophy obtained from the war with the Rudelic Kingdom 500 years ago? Reginus. “He’s quite a big guy.”
Victoria was very proud.
“I felt full just looking at it. In fact, the reason I came here with you was to see Reginus one last time.”
“…Is it okay for you to give something like that?”
“Give it to Sir Gawain.”
Victoria drew the final line.
That’s it -.
The ice door slowly split left and right, tinged with Windsor’s pure blue magic.
“Sir Gawain is a loyal subject. Spit out what you eat again.”
“…That’s really gracious advice.”
“Come on, let’s go in.”
Victoria entered the land of ‘Singijeon’ with a happy smile.
And then I saw it.
“….”
The sight of a total of about 30 miraculous items all disappearing except for three or four.
