Chapter 142 – Episode 142 Snow White’s Request, the Transcendent of Absorption
“Snow White?”
I asked as I got out of the carriage.
Snow White, clad in thick armor, glared at me.
“Why are you here? He must be staying with soldiers on the outskirts of the capital…”
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
“Did you hear?”
“It is. I also spent the night with Maurice…”
I hurriedly covered Snow White’s mouth.
“A lot of people are listening.”
“Ugh.”
Snow White was talking with his eyes.
He said he would like to participate too.
“Ha.”
Have you ever been like this
The fact that barbarians participated in an event of the empire (?).
It was not a position to refuse.
Didn’t the barbarians, including her her, come down south with her her soldiers her to accept her as a member of her empire her?
In addition, she was the biggest major in this civil war.
I could feel the gaze from behind.
It was Siegfried.
‘Minister, did you touch the barbarian woman?’
He seemed to say with his eyes.
Karma isn’t that great.
“I will open my mouth if you will not speak direct words and actions. Do you agree?”
Snow White nodded her head.
“Good night.”
I opened her mouth.
“Puha!”
Snow White took a deep breath.
“I was told I deserved it too. That even slaves can participate in the confrontation.”
“… Okay. There is nothing that the Cruys cannot do.”
“I knew you would say that too.”
After her words, Snow White took out a pure white flower from inside her armor her.
She was her white plum blossom that resembled her.
The plum blossoms protected by magic did not appear to be freshly picked by her.
It was not the season for plum blossoms.
“I heard that the knights of the Empire offered roses. When we confess, we, the Kruys, give plum blossoms and plum blossoms to the other person as a gift.”
Snow White knelt in front of me.
Snow White got down on one knee and held out a plum blossom to me.
“So please accept it. My heart comes.”
Ha.
What should I do with this
Countless people in the streets and in the capital were watching.
“Oh my gosh.”
“Isn’t that Minister Morris?”
“They say the young ladies are fighting over him.”
“Is that woman also participating?”
“He was handsome.”
I could hear everyone in the street looking at me and whispering.
“Can I still take it? They are barbarians.”
“I wouldn’t accept a minister no matter how much.”
“Are they outsiders?”
Outsider.
It was a word that somehow stimulated me.
It’s like a word that makes fun of me who has been possessed in another world.
The reason he opened his heart to Snow White for the first time must have been because of a slight sense of kinship with him as an outsider.
If he did not receive this plum blossom in front of so many people, the harmony between the Kruy tribe and the empire would be impossible in the end.
It seems like things are getting bigger, but that’s also my job.
I was given snow white plum blossoms.
“I will accept that heart.”
“Thank you.”
Snow White smiled brightly.
Now she seemed happier than anyone else in the world.
She’s like she’s sure she’ll win.
‘The confidence of women in this world is frighteningly high.’
“Then wait for my letter.”
“All right. Then rest in peace.”
Snow White, bowing his head, returned and mounted the horse.
With flowers in hand, I returned to the carriage.
I felt so, so strange.
“Ah, what a popular man. I don’t know if this feeling is jealousy or pity, but sooner or later there will be a great spectacle.”
“Are you sure Seria will win?”
“About 80%.”
“It’s pretty high.”
“It’s faith in my daughter.”
“Who are the other 20%?”
“Is it important? If the winner isn’t Siegfried, it doesn’t mean much.”
Siegfried laughed once and asked.
“By the way. Why did you ask to go to the imperial palace? It must be the worst place for you, a wizard.”
“I have something to check.”
I got into the carriage
“Branch. I don’t have much time.”
When Duke Siegfried got into the carriage, the coachman drove the horse again.
Rumors circulated in the streets again.
One more participant in the duel for Maurice.
***
– Long time no see. Two weeks, no, has it been a month? I’ve lived so long that my notion of time has become ambiguous.
Fearing to enter the imperial palace, a voice was heard in the air.
Transcendence of absorption.
It was the guy who ruined Ruclid.
‘Though he said it was Ryuclid’s nature.’
It was impossible to know unless you checked it yourself.
-Anyway, I thought I was dying of loneliness. There is no one to listen to my voice The people of the imperial family used to listen to me every time. I’m a bit talkative, but I understand. When you’re alone for a long time, you need someone to talk to.
“Why are you still here?”
-Because it’s a space I created. Need more reasons?
“Then this space, if you make the mana rift as it was, it means that your place will disappear, right?”
-That’s a different story.
The transcendent of absorption that hovered in the air flew in front of me.
-Do you want to get rid of me?
“Rather than getting rid of it, I want to send it somewhere else.”
It would be unacceptable for Ryuclid to be possessed by this guy and regain his original form.
It’s going to be a dodol ticket.
So it came To get rid of this guy and find peace.
-Send it to another place… Not bad, but how?
“I am the only one who can see you in this world now. So, come to me.”
– Hoo. Can you handle me
“It’s okay…”
That’s funny.
“You will know when you come under me. Whether I can handle you or not.”
– Cheuk,haha!
The laughter of the Absorbing Transcendent tore his ears and shook his head.
It felt like the world was spinning around in an instant.
Blood dripped from his nose and ears.
-Go under you. You’re cheeky. Was Sebastian tamed like that?
“I know you well.”
-It must be different from that loyal idiot?
“Then shall we bet?”
-I don’t know what you believe in and are so arrogant, but I get it. Accept that bet
A frenzied laugh echoed throughout the imperial palace.
It was a laugh that no one else in the palace could hear, only I could hear.
-Instead, the betting conditions are for me to bet.
“As you please.”
The Transcendentalist stretched out his fingers.
-If you’re still sane after visiting this place three times, once a week, I’ll admit my defeat.
“How are you going to judge whether you are sane or not?”
-You and I both know it well.
The guy laughed.
“Great. I accept that bet.”
It will probably take a lot of preparation.
-Keuk kuk kuk, yes. That arrogant confidence will throw you into the pit.
The laughter of the Transcendentalist was terrifying.
Just looking at it made my heart beat.
I know this feeling
A feeling long forgotten.
Just fear.
I was afraid of that existence now.
A pure fear that neither Jane, Lilith, nor Sebastian, who were transcendental beings, had felt.
I was feeling from that Transcendentalist now.
I turned around as if to shake off my fear.
“Then come next week.”
– I’ll be waiting.
Grow, grow, grow.
The sound of laughter faded away.
Strength in the chin.
Even though I squeezed my trembling hands, the trembling did not stop.
“Are you okay?”
Until Siegfried, who was waiting at the entrance of the Great War, tapped my shoulder.
I had no ideas.
Like being crushed by something huge.
***
“Did the savage princess also participate in the war?”
Ceria in a red dress bit her lip.
She declared that she would participate in the duel yesterday.
However, one more enemy increased in one day.
A sudden duel by the emperor.
Thanks to this, Maurice and Emir’s marriage was prevented, but new competitors came from all sides.
Duke Siegfried looked at Seria and said.
“Perhaps these will be the end. No matter how much I think about it, there is no one who dares to challenge other than those who have been nominated now. Although the ladies of other aristocrats are looking for an opportunity to spy on them.”
“You wouldn’t dare to fight the duke.”
“I guess.”
Hurb.
Duke Siegfried drank coffee.
“Daughter, you have no idea how good it is that you are here.”
“Me too. Father.”
Sarah smiled softly.
He was once a father who had deep emotional rifts, but now everything has been resolved, and he feels much stronger emotions than before.
“It is good that you came, but why did you return home?”
She was Seria whose identity was reinstated.
Now that she was no longer Maurice’s maid, she returned to her house as Siegfried’s princess again.
Although she tried to remain in her mansion her as a guest.
It had been ordered by the emperor that she could not stay in Maurice’s mansion while preparing for the duel.
“There was an order from His Majesty the Emperor. For the sake of fairness, get away from the owner, no, Maurice’s mansion…”
As soon as those words were finished, Duke Siegfried’s eyes narrowed.
“Isn’t it strange? Why did you ask me to go home, when the emperor is beholden to Maurice Dmitri’s mansion?”
“Uh?”
It was indirect advice from her father to her about to fight.
“What is the emperor going to do by sending you here? Neither Emir Solarion nor the barbarian chief named Snow White are in Maurice’s mansion. That means Maurice is alone in the mansion.”
She was cool
The wicked emperor?
In an instant, her head her spun.
“What should I do now?”
“I’m sorry. Father, I will go first.”
Seria jumped up from her seat her.
“Cover it. Victory is something you have to earn. I will devise a strategy appropriate to the situation, so you will prevent the emperor from doing useless things.”
Duke Siegfried saw them off while drinking tea leisurely.
Seria hurriedly ran outside, and Siegfried, who was watching her back her, murmured in a low voice.
“You are young.”
***
Office.
“Seria, I’m thirsty. Have some water…”
As I was sorting through her papers of her, I turned her head to see where Seria had stood each time.
“Ah.”
There was no one there.
“Right. Went back.”
After her identity was restored, Seria returned to Siegfried’s mansion for the time being.
Because I am no longer a maid.
“You’ve become too used to being treated by Seria.”
In the past, Sebastian would bring it when the time came, pour water in advance, or sometimes I would make magic myself and drink it.
But after Seria came, she didn’t have to, so she was in charge of most of it.
“Whoa.”
I saw a water bottle.
It was empty.
Sebastian must have lost her senses because Seria was in charge of it for a long time.
“It was bigger than I thought. Your existence.”
The empty space created by the disappearance of Seria was far wider and more empty than she thought.
It made me realize that she had been here for a long time.
I guess I’ve adapted to her.
“You’re inappropriately sentimental.”
I got up from my seat.
I was thinking of making water with magic and drinking it, but I thought of just pouring water in the kitchen and drinking it.
It was then.
Smart.
“Who is it?”
“It’s me, Lucid.”
Is it Ryuclid?
Why?
I opened the door with a question.
And in front of the door.
Ruclid stood there, holding a bottle of strong whiskey.
