‘What is that friend again?’
The chilly silence of the banquet hall made Ruid uneasy.
When I turned the Balrog’s clock, a strange-looking man came out.
“Baron Iso, who turned into a Balrog, has returned to human form. “No way.”
The one who moved in the silence was the magic tower lord. He approached Baron Iso with unsteady steps.
“Ugh, ugh.”
Baron Iso held his head as if he was dizzy. The magic tower lord sat down and grabbed Baron Iso’s collar.
“Look. Answer me! “Everything I remember!”
“W-what are you doing…! Blood, Prince Philip, oops.”
Baron Lee So, who suddenly got strangled, was very embarrassed. He was even more embarrassed when he saw the numerous nobles surrounding him.
“Well, I’ll tell you. “Let go of this first!”
He roughly removed the magic tower’s hand and gulped for a while.
“Damn… I don’t know what this is going on.”
Baron Iso said while wiping his mouth.
“I have been challenged to a duel.”
“Ask for a duel?”
“Yes, some arrogant commoner.”
Baron Iso stood up.
He looked around and pointed somewhere with his finger. It was Justin.
“It’s him. I lost my memory after the argument with that guy. The last thing I saw was the sound of the devil laughing. “I’m not sure what’s going on.”
Lee So-eun was a nobleman. I wasn’t so stupid that I couldn’t understand the situation.
Destroyed hall. Blood stains falling all over the surrounding area.
“Whatever it is, it’s a trick of that commoner.”
He knew instinctively. I don’t remember, and I can’t understand the situation properly – but
if I say something wrong here, I will be executed.
“Arrest the person pointed out.”
Lucius spoke softly, and the guards caught Justin without a second thought.
“Oh, it’s a misunderstanding!”
Although he was tired of screaming, Justin was suppressed by the guards and fell face down on the floor.
Baron Iso grabbed Justin’s hair with an angry expression.
“Say it, commoner! “What have you done to me?”
It was only then that Ruid, who had seen that far, realized the situation.
‘A warlock contacted Iso.’
‘Did you create Balrog using Lee So-eul as a medium?’
And it felt like I had turned back time. Balrog’s body was unable to withstand the fifth magic and was destroyed, but Baron Iso, the medium, was unharmed.
“I am…! “I didn’t do anything!”
“Don’t lie! You are the only person I have come in contact with! “If you are up to some evil trick, who else would you be?”
“wait a minute!”
At that time, Catherine came forward.
“Well, I saw it. “Baron Iso disappears somewhere with a suspicious woman.”
“You bitch, what’s your name?”
Baron Iso asked. Catherine hesitated a little and spoke in a very quiet voice.
“…This is Catherine Ovillian.”
The nobles murmured. Catherine bowed her head. Baron Iso laughed like the sky was leaving.
“Fuhaha! Do you believe? “Sounds from the dirty successor to Obillion!”
“It’s the truth. “Other people saw that scene too!”
‘It’s time for training.’
Ruid let out a yawn.
It was visible to Ruid.
What is the truth of this incident and who is lying? And the emperor, who was calmly watching this situation, must have noticed this. Because the emperor has the ability to see lies.
‘Still, let’s stay still.’
Ruid thought it would be good if he didn’t get caught because he used the fifth magic.
Being a warlock or something, it’s none of my business.
“That’s not the point!”
At that time, the magic tower owner shouted loudly.
“I returned the body that had turned into a Balrog back to normal. “This, this…”
The magic tower spread his arms and trembled with joy.
“The fifth magic. It was said that the human eye could not even see the 5th magic when it was cast, and it was true. Confucius Ruid! “You really have the 5th magic…”
Ruid looked at the magic tower lord with cold, salty eyes. Matapju said something, but I could no longer hear it. Because Ruid cast a dumb spell!
“??”
The magic tower owner shouted with a red face, but when no sound was heard, the nobles looked bewildered.
Ruid smiled awkwardly and said.
“Well, please continue.”
“I’m sorry, Ruid.”
It was then that Damon stepped forward.
He put his hands in his pockets and stepped in front of the audience.
He glanced back at Ruid and opened his mouth.
“The fact that you can use magic to break through the imperial barrier is proof that you have already conquered the fifth magic. Do you think it will work if you silence the Mage Tower?”

“…!”
“The fifth magic…?”
“As expected, my prediction was right.”
The 5th magic. Beyond the magical world, it has a great impact on ordinary nobles as well. Everyone focused when they heard that Ruid had conquered the 5th magic.
Of course, it is important to understand the truth about the warlock, but the fifth magic is shocking enough to put that aside for a while.
Ruid hid behind Amelia.
“Sister, kill me.”
“Lou, Louis.”
“Hahaha!”
The emperor laughed loudly. The laughter didn’t stop for a while.
Lucius, who barely stopped laughing, said while wiping away some tears that had leaked out.
“You, who don’t like to come out like this, must have made a very big decision to come forward without hesitation.”
Ruid nodded quickly. Of course, he didn’t come running, he just hugged Damon’s side. If Damon hadn’t said, ‘Amelia might be in danger,’ I would have run away.
“It warms my heart to see how much you value Amelia.”
“…?”
“Isn’t that right?”
Lucius forced an answer. Although Ruid was a little nervous, there was nothing wrong with what he said.
“yes.”
Lucius said with a smile.
“I’m glad that the friendship within the Windsor family is strong.”
Lucius turned his back and stepped forward.
“Arrest Baron Iso and find the truth of the incident. “Be sure to catch the warlock who instigated this and make him guilty of interfering with Louis Christopher Windsor’s celebration.”
“yes!”
The knights bowed in unison. It was the same with Amelia.
Lucius looked at Ruid and said.
“Luid Christopher Windsor has made a significant contribution to this incident, so he will be awarded a military medal. In addition, he is the first human being to master the fifth magic, so it is only right that everyone should rejoice as this is also a blessing for the empire.”
Ruid slumped his shoulders. Lucius said, still smiling.
“I will bestow a nickname on Louis Christopher Windsor, who accomplished this great feat.”
‘Why don’t you give me something else?’
“A nickname, yes, that would be good.”
Lucius backed away.
He spoke with clear pronunciation.
“Time Wizard.”
**
Ruid’s fame spread throughout the empire.
-‘Prince Louis ran at once, risking danger, to save his sister.’
-‘They say he showed great magic by saving His Majesty the Emperor and the nobles.’
-‘The magic even involved time and showed the realm of God. It is said that His Majesty bestowed the name ‘Wizard of Time’ out of respect.
To be exact, it was scheduled to spread throughout the country.
Michael was in the process of final confirmation of the contents of the ‘rumor’ issued by the Emperor.
“Do you think it will go well?”
“Yes, Your Majesty. “Your Majesty’s judgment is correct.”
Michael gave a briefing while looking at the documents.
“If you are an aristocrat of the system, you have no choice but to support Louis Christopher. And, this incident created the effect that ‘Luid Christopher’ was supporting ‘Amelia Windsor.’”
As a result, the perception was created that if Amelia became a duke, Ruid would greatly benefit the empire.
Above all, Amelia’s own achievements are by no means small.
Rather than punishing the nobles and warlocks that Irene achieved during the ‘successor test’, her
merit is greater in protecting the nobles and the emperor from the warlocks.
“This plan was a success.”
“That’s right.”
Lucius spoke of another topic with a stern expression.
“Damon seemed to have noticed.”
“I’m not sure, but it’s unnaturally clearing Amelia Windsor’s balls.”
“I see them trying to focus attention on Ruid.”
“That is also His Majesty’s plan.”
Michael said coldly.
“You have to take it out. If that is true, it would be the same as rebelling against Your Majesty.”
“Leave it alone.”
“But…”
What Lucius was most wary of was that his purpose would become known to Windsor.
That was something that had to be prevented.
“Damon will realize my purpose if I oust him. “Irene Windsor is highly intelligent.”
“…You can’t tell from that alone, right? Also, there is a possibility that if we leave Prince Damon alone, he will speak directly.”
Lucius chuckled.
“That won’t happen, so don’t worry.”
“How sure are you?”
“Damon is someone who cares about the safety of the empire as much as Jim. If this matter were to come to Windsor, it would be a great loss to the empire, regardless of my personal problems. You probably don’t know that. “Jim believes in Damon’s wisdom.”
Michael couldn’t understand. Damon Kairos is a badass that has been rumored for a long time. He is a person who has no consideration for others and is only interested in his own safety.
However, his ability was excellent and he was the right person to entrust the family called Kairos.
“And that is.”
Lucius rested his chin on the armrest of the throne and spoke with an arrogant face.
“How can he be called the emperor of an empire if he can’t even do anything for his younger brother?”
**
“…My brother is probably saying this right now.”
Luid’s professor’s office. Ruid broke into a cold sweat as he watched Damon continue his revelation for about an hour.
“Everyone else may not know, but isn’t Irene Windsor’s personality terrible? “If this gets heard in Windsor, there won’t be an uproar or anything like that.”
The Emperor is said to have a hand in planning the succession to the Duke of Windsor. That was shocking, but what was more shocking was Damon’s attitude.
“But why do you say that?”
“I know.”
Damon curled one corner of his mouth. He sat down on the professor’s chair as if it were his own and put his legs on the table.
“You will never tell anyone else about this.”
“…How do you know that?”
“How could you not know? Because the moment you tell your sister about it, something very annoying will happen. How could a lazy person who thinks about how to sleep better all day do such a thing? “Just like you trusted me, I trust you too.”
What Damon said was half right and half wrong. No matter how much he hated being bothered, there was no way he would bother his family. However, it is also true that I cannot say anything because my family comes first. Because you scrape it to make crumbs.
Damon stood up.
“This is the end of what I have to say. “I’ll leave the judgment to you.”
And then he left without hesitation. Ruid turned around with a bewildered look on his face. I said to Damon who was about to open the door and go out.
“for a moment.”
“…Why do you always only talk to me when I open the door and leave?”
“Why did you bother to tell me this?”
Damon spoke without hesitation.
“It’s a debt.”
“debt?”
“One day, the day will come when I will ask you to do something.”
Damon’s tone sounded like he was reading the future.
“When that time comes, this debt will be quite helpful.”
“…It definitely helped.”
Ruid hated fighting among his family more than the destruction of the world.
A succession conflict.
It’s cliché, but it’s the most terrible cliché for me right now.
“Then that’s a relief.”
Damon chuckled at Luid, opened the door, and went out.
He walked down the hallway with his hand in one pocket and waved in the other direction.
“Let’s have a meal later.”
Ruid thought as he looked at Damon’s back.
‘Just as your majesty is trying to make Amelia a duke, should I try to make Damon an emperor?’
Damon became emperor. I think it suits me in its own way.
