Chapter 29
Hira Yuxilla.
Cyrlin Yuxilla.
and.
‘Coltman Aindar Locke.’
In Yuxilla’s VIP room where the three of them gathered, Hira swallowed. During the inauguration ceremony of the CEO, I once watched his face from afar.
I really only had a glimpse of him from a distance, and he had a dignity that I couldn’t get close to. Should I say it’s similar to the first Rocktrin?
I never thought I’d sit around a table with him. I had never even dreamed of it. Even more surprising than that.
“Re-re-marriage… … .”
My mother decided to remarry the Marquis Coltman!
Did the kite come about because of helping to restore the territory? It felt like my mind, which had been half empty, was flashing.
“Hira, you have to listen to the end. You’re just pretending.”
“Not good, Cilyn. First of all, shouldn’t everyone believe you if you are sincere?”
“Don’t you have any shame? Now I am in front of my daughter.”
“Didn’t you two say you were friends anyway?”
So what’s my relationship with the Rocks?
siblings? Who is above and who is below?
no, more than that.
“A guy like you… … My son disappeared overnight, how could he be so fine?”
“I knew.”
“What?”
“I didn’t know exactly what was going to happen. He just told me.”
Coltman did not bat an eye when he heard the news that thirty students had gone missing in broad daylight.
did you know
“Even if you are in danger, be sure to ignore it.”
“what… … .”
Coltman said it was Roxtrin’s will to send support to Yuxilla.
Even if they said that they were aware of Coltman’s entry into politics, which had only been in their heads and had never been revealed, and it was shameful that he used his daughter, Yuxilla’s recovery was thanks to Roxtrin no matter what anyone said.
Now, when the territory is stable, we will announce that we have received Aindarok’s support, and we plan to say that we have formed a relationship because of that.
Can it be as smooth as this?
It’s absurd, but it made me wonder if even the fact that Yuxilla was attacked by monsters might have been intentional by Roxtrin.
“So, I don’t have any barriers. Don’t you know how to do it?”
“Not because of that. Your son stole the check from my daughter.”
“Do not compensate. how much?”
“One Billion G.”
“Hmm.”
Coltman leaned slowly against the backrest. He lifts the teacup once, but it is empty.
Shilin burst out laughing.
“Do you have 1 billion in Aindarlock?”
“… … Hmm.”
“Speak, child.”
Aindarok does not hoard wealth, even though he may store grain in the barn.
The property of the territory is transparent and accurate without leaks, but most of it is consumed by the northern barrier in real time. There is no room for that.
“What happened?”
Coltman’s gaze turned to Hera.
I meant to hear the answer myself. Hira opened her mouth with a trembling voice.
“… … Rocks came to my room.”
“You sent him in knowing what he would do. A girl.”
“I-I don’t really say that I’m prettier than the other kids… … . I said I needed something to refer to when I was decorating my room.”
“Do you decorate your room?”
“Yes Yes.”
Coltman asked curiously.
“Rockstrin hates having anything in his room. There is nothing but books in Tarum’s room.”
“Then, what does that mean? So Hira, does that mean he didn’t touch you in particular?”
“The Rocks are not like that.”
“I’m not the kind of person to do that, but stealing checks and spending 1 billion on my own?”
“There must be a reason.”
“You too.”
Shilin sighed.
I don’t want to disappoint my mother.
But I don’t know why he said that.
I wanted to believe that Rocktrin wasn’t wrong. Was it simply because I fell in love with that face? Because he sent a letter and asked for a manor?
‘I feel like this is my life, but in reality I was living up to expectations. Parents, teachers, friends, anyone.’
not.
It is because you have told yourself what you are made of.
‘It’s not very fun.’
It was because those deep blue eyes showed what they were looking at, even to themselves.
The voice gained strength.
Hera said one more time.
“There must be a reason.”
I thought you would be angry.
Shilin raised his hand, and Hira closed his eyes tightly. Silin quietly stroked Hira’s scarlet hair.
“When I see you like this, you look like my daughter.”
“What kind of request did you entrust to that mercenary corps for a billion dollars?”
“I asked you to find out. The time has come soon.”
smart.

Just then, a knock was heard at the door. The servant handed over a document and quietly left the room.
Shilin, who was reading the document, narrowed his brows.
“You said you left for Areas five days ago? All 120 people?”
“It wasn’t even before he disappeared.”
“Then you are in Areas right now, class A students? Apart from how it is possible. If you know, why didn’t you tell me?”
Originally, the secret request could not reveal the details of the request, but since the check was Yuxilla’s, I was able to find out.
How Rocktrin found out doesn’t matter now either. If you knew the incident would happen, you could have prevented it.
‘I could have avoided it, but I did not avoid it.’
Coltman was also lost in thought.
Numerous nobles of the empire, including the princess Ainim, neglected to let the children of other royal families go missing in the middle of the campus.
‘Because I judged that it was right to suffer.’
If so, that’s for sure.
All 31 missing people are safe.
Rockstrin would have saved it. Looking at the fact that the mercenary corps was launched five days ago, even the time is counted.
missing, and they all come back safely. what do you get from it
‘no.’
Coltman shook his head.
In fact, they gain nothing.
‘It’s the opposite.’
‘Who’ caused the incident.
that someone must lose everything
You can’t even cover this up. The princess was kidnapped. The empire will eventually find those who perpetrated this absurd incident and destroy the Gujok. Rockstrin wants it.
However, there are no enemies in Aindarok.
There’s no way that Rockstrin, who hasn’t left the estate, will ever hold a personal grudge against anyone.
“enemy.”
“enemy?”
“Who are the enemies of the Empire?”
It was a random question.
Shilin did not ponder for long.
Who would dare to stand up to the Empire, but in fact, it’s a question that any wizard who has graduated from Summer Turf can answer simply.
“Leeden?”
“okay.”
“What are you talking about, all of a sudden?”
“Liden was the mastermind behind this, Rockstrin says so.”
It was already shown during the inauguration ceremony.
Rockstrin had a clear grasp of the Empire’s predicament. Liden has most of the exclusive rights to magic.
‘Summer Turge is under attack.’
Even if you’re sure it was Leeden who attacked Summer Turge, there’s only circumstantial evidence. So it was as Rocktrin thought.
The empire ended the attack of a high-ranking monster with a riot within the empire. Leiden left no room for doubt.
It’s just that the scale has grown so much that it can’t be measured, but if you think about it, the two incidents are similar.
that you will never hear
Leeden is conceited.
“That means… … No, I came to a conclusion like that after doing something. Even though they’re a bit irritating, they don’t just go out.”
“Gee, I crossed the line this time. It could happen anytime.”
There is a high possibility that Ainim will not directly harm them. However, there is no guarantee that other students will be safe as well.
Raising the level like that eventually crosses the line. If you thought you were only sixteen-year-olds, you would definitely pay the price for that conceit.
There will be gaps.
Among the 31 class A students.
There is Lockstrin Aindarok.
“Are the kids in Areas?”
“Areas is not close, but there are also Enfirians on the other side of the continent. There must have been a Liden home country. But if I could have specified a place, I chose Areas too.”
Class A students can return on their own from Areas.
Instead of dropping it in a place that is too far or too dangerous to create a big hindrance, it only creates a moderate crisis situation. It is very suitable if the purpose was to lower the status of Summer Turge from the beginning.
The culprits who will be revealed on the outside will be the ones who don’t care what happens. Of course, it is certain that they too will be slaughtered by the Empire.
“Then are you going to leave it like this?”
“We need to think about whether 1 billion G was necessary.”
“I don’t know if I couldn’t restore the mine. you can do it to get it It’s your son’s fault, so I’m going to borrow the name Aindarok. Don’t mind the money.”
“I’m glad.”
“All the imperial aristocrats know how hard you are. I just don’t want to give you my bowl.”
I was sure that if I saved the kidnapped students with that money, at least I wouldn’t suffer any loss. Rather, it is more like an investment.
It has already been possible to use the magic of the special lease to further expand Dempel’s mine. I just complained to Coltman for no reason, but it wasn’t a huge burden.
“He doesn’t know that a special lease is coming to my estate right now. Why did I have to steal the check from Hira’s room? I can ask you for help.”
Since I hired a mercenary group from a non-Southern island, I understand that it costs more due to distance.
But it’s 1 billion.
He hired the entire mercenary corps, not just a part, and sent them down to Areas. Wasn’t the special lease worse than them? Isn’t it a much stronger and more certain power?
While they can’t use Aindarok’s special lease, a crisis that requires that much power arises while they return… … .
“Did you hear what Rocktrin said at the inauguration this time?”
“no. why? Well, there were a lot of rumors.”
“I know the distributed copy because Kanin showed it to me. It is an independent theory created by the Second Princess and Rockstrin.”
“Two freshmen making a theory? You are smart.”
It was a rare occurrence.
The world is wide and there are many talents, so new advances are sometimes made in the hands of students. Could it be that the efficiency of frequently used magic has increased?
“It is a basic theory.”
“… … Basic theory?”
“Attribution, form, solution, none of them are needed. It is a completely new way to manifest magic. I think I’ve read it 30 times already because I’m reconsidering it whenever I have time.”
“Is that possible?”
Coltman nodded.
It is impossible for wizards who have already hardened their methods. He himself failed. Mage Kanin only succeeded in 1-star magic.
But it definitely worked.
What about students who haven’t learned magic for a few years? What about children under the age of 1? What if you learn it that way from the start?
imagination theory.
Even Coltman couldn’t lightly guess the value of that outrageous theory.
“If only it leaked.”
Rockstrin said he believed in the professors at Somerset, but Kanin immediately showed him a copy. This is because the distributed copies are not restricted to be viewed only by the person himself/herself.
By now, the news would have reached Leeden’s side as well. However, there was no time to wait for an order from the home country of Leeden.
“Even if the target is the princess, Liden can try to kill him.”
Empire’s new weapon.
It’s an urgent issue that can’t think of remorse. There is no time to thoroughly prepare.
It might even come from the head, let alone the tail. if you induce it If only I could grab that hair and pull it down.
The situation on the continent changes overnight.
‘The movement of the special lease is great.’
It was possible to secretly move support to Yuxilla through the interior, but it was impossible to keep it secret until it moved overseas through the Confederate front.
If the special lease team moves first, it is highly likely that Leeden will withdraw. But what if it’s just a mercenary? Isn’t it worth pushing through?
enforce
– Where did you come from?
Where were you looking?
He entered the unexpected Summer Turge by stealing property, built a friendship with Yuxilla’s child, and moved the special lease to build a justification for Aindarlock to advance into politics.
At the same time, the score is the highest score ever. After noticing Riden’s hostility and making him careless, he and the princess created a basic theory, prompting Riden to attack impatiently.
out of the narrow corner,
about two months.
made it all
“That’s it, what the heck.”
Shilin was also speechless.
That kind of thing can’t even be explained by the word genius.
Is it the same human being?
“What are you doing kid? huh? How did you teach your son?”
“I didn’t teach anything. I ran away.”
He was a guy who only learned magic one by one by forcing him to memorize theory books.
In the meantime, no one knows that Rockstrin’s level is only 3 stars. It was astonishing.
“I don’t care about my father’s feelings.”
finally come to now
Now, he was walking a tightrope, risking his own life and even the life of the princess.
If successful, the empire will become the true conqueror of the continent, and if it fails, it will die.
“I heard that the mercenaries left five days ago.”
“What are you going to do? I hate it even if you tell me to pretend I don’t know. You don’t even know Liden’s history.”
If the mercenary group hired for 1 billion isn’t enough, by any chance the students suffer.
Even the 1 billion that was spent becomes meaningless. As Shilin, Ainim and Rockstrin had to be brought back to life.
“You are right. It should be suitable by now.”
It’s time for Leeden to make a decision.
I told them to pretend they didn’t know, so I waited quietly for three days. I didn’t say don’t do anything until the end.
The talent of the mercenary corps and the students is enough, and if it goes in vain, he can come back with a smile, but now Coltman can’t imagine losing his lockscreen.
“I will go to the imperial family.”
“Wow, it comes out hard.”
“Let’s just say I love my son as much as you love your daughter.”
3 days after disappearance.
About 1,000 knights directly under the imperial family crossed the Confederate front and headed for Areas.

“tiring… … .”
“My feet hurt.”
In fact, the physical strength of the students is not something to look at, even if I say it well.
Even I, who was a level 3, couldn’t even properly turn three laps on the playground. That means it’s average.
“Rox, how much further do you have to go?”
Half of them mean they can’t even do that.
Before reaching the river, there was a sound of pain. To some extent, this was an expected result.
Commoners are usually level 3 or 4, but even nobles, at least male students learn swordsmanship lightly when they are young.
On the other hand, the physical condition of female students was not significantly different from Ainim.
“I’ll go and rest for 10 more minutes.”
I think it’s fortunate that I’m not being chased again. There was no need to make it difficult, so I decided to move slowly.
“Whew. At this rate, it would take about 31 days to draft. As soon as I get back, I’ll have my final exam!”
“Hee!”
“Gee, really?”
“Why are you frightening me, Your Highness? All you have to do is go to the united front by car. It will arrive there in ten days at the latest.”
“thank god… … .”
The kid sitting next to me secretly drew a V so that only I could see it. Anyway, I don’t even say a single trivial word.
It’s not something I just came up with.
In fact, ten days is an incredibly long time if you just move around. However, if you mention the 31st earlier than that, the tone is different.
Wouldn’t it be okay for ten days? A quick thought. This is very effective. Above all, it only takes two days instead of ten days.
Two days is like camping.
making a fire? There is fire magic. water? There is water magic. Wind magic is good for hunting, and a dragonfly can be roughly made with earth magic.
If you follow the river, you won’t get lost, and there are many animals to hunt on that side.
The mountains are good, the air is good, and the water is clear.
If this isn’t camping then what is?
“You look bright, Rox.”
After 5 minutes, students were moderately spread out nearby. I also put Aini down and made her lean against a rock.
“I feel like I’m taking a break now.”
“Now?”
“If not at times like this, when should I rest?”
When I’m in my room, I have no choice but to read a book because it’s a waste of time, but now I can’t help it, so it’s forgivable.
Even if I can’t do it, I’ve blown away two weeks, so wouldn’t it be okay if my final exam grades dropped a bit?
“… … get some sleep too Rox has dead eyes every time he meets him.”
“Your Highness sleeps, even mine.”
“What? what does that have to do with me And I haven’t slept much lately because of Rocks.”
Ainim touched her ankle, tilted her head for a moment, and then added a few words.
“Well. so Theory, because?”
“Yes. There must have been an uproar by now, right?”
“Still, I thought it would be much easier, but I was a little disappointed because everyone was having a hard time.”
“Because you can’t change your left hand and right hand overnight. If I were to write with my left hand now, I would go back to when I was three.”
“Aha. It’s just right when you say that.”
The child let out a shallow laugh.
Do you laugh?
“Your Highness must still be sick.”
“right. I’m pretending I’m not sick.”
At least, I tore up something like a blanket on the second floor and put a splint on it, but there’s no way it could have been treated with that alone. I don’t know if it’s trauma, but there’s no medicine to deal with fractures. There is no such thing as painkillers.
It’s red and swollen, so it’s obvious, but I feel sorry for everyone watching, so I frown. Even if the will is only level 4.
“Please bear with me for a little while.”
If I had been a little more careful, could the child not have been hurt? What would it have been like if I had moved alone, one floor at a time, instead of dragging all the children down?
Even if we ran into each other, if I was the only one who saw it, I would have rushed to it. Um, could I have won?
“I’m sick, but why is Rox frowning? Raise your eyebrows.”
“Originally, if the child is sick, the parents are also sick.”
“That’s what Obama said when I was five. Rocks is not Obama?”
“I do not know.”
The one who gave birth to the child must have been the emperor.
Because I made you
“It might be similar.”
To be honest, I didn’t want to see my child get hurt before I started arguing about events.
If I say this, Frid will be upset, but he’s a guy who rolls around a little. It’s not just the will level 8. It’s worth using it too.
“Sleepy.”
“Good night. The kids were sleeping too.”
Even though it was still lunchtime, everyone was tired from work since they woke up. I was thinking of taking a break for an hour or so.
“Then sit over here.”
“uh… … .”
Tuk-tuk, Ai-nim tapped on the seat right next to me with a friendly voice. I can roughly understand the intention.
But maybe it’s too close?
“Are you calling someone else? Whether it’s Camilla or Daisy… … .”
“Sit over here, Rocks.”
“yes.”
Come to think of it, I hadn’t thought about that.
It’s good to get close to and befriend the main characters. If you listen carefully to my words, you will be able to use them in the right place when you need them. Good.
… … What if you get too close?
“Good night, Rocks.”
The child lightly leaned his head on my shoulder. I can’t sleep if you’re like that?
I had to crouch down to make sure I wouldn’t feel uncomfortable. Anyway, let’s be content with being able to sit and relax.
“I will be back soon.”
“… … .”
No answer.
yeah go to sleep
The south is mild, so even in the shade, a warm breeze blows. Occasionally, when sunlight shines through the cracks in the leaves, her bright blonde hair sparkles like a jewel.
“Ummm.”
It was so pretty that I inadvertently put my hand on my head, but Ai-nim was still asleep.
“… … sorry.”
sorry.
With a small voice that will be buried even by the whispering breath.
It was something I had to say someday.
