Episode 134
Subordination? Possible.
But after that.
I need to keep taking care of it, but no matter how much I look like I’m just playing around, I’m not so idle as to waste time playing along with Death Knights.
I don’t even have time to play with my kids these days, so why should I mess around with corpses?
What could be more inefficient?
Let’s talk about this later.
“I forgot to mention that.”
(……??)
“Your hair, the Mohawk, actually, I really like it.”
(…….)
“I especially like it when the side hair is all shaved and only about 15cm of hair is left on the top of the head.”
(……Oh……Oh…….)
“And if you wax that hair up to 20cm or more, wow… … that’s a real man’s hair.”
(……I don’t know.)
Honestly, I was taken aback for a moment.
“You don’t know? What?”
(……Your words make my heart beat. It feels like my heart is beating.)
I turned my head briefly and looked at the torso hanging over my butt.
Your heart is here, but how do you feel it?
It’s a bit inappropriate for an Exile with only a neck left to say this, but let’s just leave it at that.
“A Mohawk is another name for a warrior’s hair. You and I fought with swords drawn, right?”
(Yes.)
“I just used your psychology a little to win, honestly, I don’t have any personal feelings. We’re ‘kindred spirits’, right?”
(…….)
“I became the winner and you became the loser, but what does that really matter?”
(……Is that so?)
“We’re having a conversation like this right now. How meaningful this is. For a warrior, he gets to fight with an opponent he can fight with all his might… … and then he gets to talk to them after the fight is over… … and on top of that, they’re kindred spirits with something in common… … ? I think this situation is really meaningful, but you don’t think so, do you?”
(That’s… no.)
I made my face look as sad as possible.
“I feel so sorry for you too, a warrior like you, that you had to die in a place like this. But you didn’t have any regrets when you fought, did you?”
(……That’s right.)
“Then we can talk as warriors. There should only be truth in conversation between warriors. Right?”
(Yes.)
This is how fraud works.

Now that the introduction is sufficient, let me tell you the rest of the story.
“Did the Crown Prince send you?”
(No, His Majesty did not send me, I was simply following the policy.)
“course?”
(The Tulcan Empire values talent. Circle users dispatched to each country approach those with talent and naturalize them into the Tulcan Empire. This is a strict order from His Majesty, and it must be prioritized above all else.)
Strictly speaking.
First of all, the crown prince is just a crown prince.
That means he is not the emperor.
However, all those who know and follow the Crown Prince call him ‘Your Majesty’.
Iskandar didn’t ask me to call him that.
just.
It was just called very naturally.
Anyway, to summarize.
“It has nothing to do with the crown prince?”
(Yes, and there are two policies he has laid down.)
There was a brief pause.
This guy, he’s suddenly giving it away so generously.
I thought it was one thing, but it’s two?
“One would be a talent hunt, and the other one?”
(Finding traces of the dragon.)
I burst out laughing.
haha.
“Dragon?”
(Yes. It is clear that the reason I used the Teslan Kingdom to subjugate the Demon Forest was to find traces of the dragon, but His Majesty is not satisfied with that. That is why I dispatched a total of 9 masters to various parts of the country. I am just one of them. Also, my top priority is ‘recruiting talent’. It is a policy, but finding traces of the dragon is just an additional task for me.)
I see
I knew we were looking for traces of the dragon, but at this time, nine people were dispatched, and the Master at that?
It’s definitely the ‘guy’ I know.
Wow, sending more than half of the 15 masters under you now.
That kid, he was a real idiot then and now.
Oh my.
By the way.
“Did you find it?”

I’m asking because I’m really curious.
Exile’s answer to my question was:
(Found it.)
Advertisements
“Oh? Really?”
The number of dragons is very small.
Five dragons that rule the forest of demons, including the two lords.
And about eight dragons are hiding all over the country, enjoying themselves.
The eight dragons I’m talking about here are the dragons I ‘know’.
Just as I was unaware of the existence of Balactus Machiavelli, there may be a dragon somewhere on this continent that I don’t know about.
If I add those numbers up, I’ll have to go up by at least a few numbers from what I already knew.
I’m telling you this now.
Honestly, I don’t even know where all of them are.
Those guys weren’t the type to stay in one place for too long.
But I found it.
“How many?”
(There is one.)
I feel a little bit empty.
what.
“barely?”
(I’m not sure about that either, I just heard that there’s someone in the Steel Mountains who is strongly suspected to be a dragon.)
He shrugged.
Steel Mountains.
A huge mountain range located near the border area where the Kingdom of Ishmael and the Kingdom of Teslan intersect.
If there’s one there… … and at this point, I can probably guess who it is.
Okay, for now.
“But there’s something I don’t understand.”
(What is it?)
“Let’s leave those two commands aside, but one of them is a little questionable.”
(one?)
“I don’t know much about the Crown Prince, but I do know enough. He’s good with words. Even if he gave you two guidelines, that can’t be all. The art of conveying hidden intentions in words. That’s what Iskandar is good at. So, is that all?”
(……?)
“Is this the only reason you came to Ascenvul to naturalize me into the Tulcan Empire?”
I’m asking this because I’m really suspicious.
I have a good feeling.
And this answer came.
(Of course not. The reason I came to Assemble is to achieve my goal of naturalizing you and at the same time to warn Magyar Teslan and Rommel Assemble.)
“Warning? What warning?”
(A warning not to go against the will of the committee. But…….)

“however?”
(I think it’s my turn to ask the question. Who are you?)
I think my hair fell out.
This much information is sufficient.
“What are you going to do about it?”
(……what?)
He said nothing more than that.
I waved my hand lightly and sent my thoughts to my mana.
To make him attain Buddhahood.
Light enveloped Exile’s head, and from that light a voice burst forth.
(Haven’t you shared your pride as a warrior! Answer my question…!)
Exile’s voice gradually fades away, creating a Doppler effect.
Just like that, the light disappears and Exile’s eyes, which had been open, close.
“Pride is f*cking shit.”
The only truth is that the winner takes everything from the loser, but he is trying to resolve his curiosity and become a Buddha.
You have to have some shame.
It was while I was sitting on Exile’s back, gathering my thoughts.
“Why are you doing this!! Didn’t I say I had nothing to do with those men!!”
(…….)
“Let go of it!! Let go!! Let go of it!!”
It’s a familiar voice.
This… … Where have I heard this voice before?
I turned my head slightly and saw Dolsoe coming towards me, grabbing a man’s hair.
A man with his hair grabbed.
Your face looks so familiar.
It’s not like the old knight of Marquis Hermann or the commander of the Second Knights or anything like that.
That guy, that guy.
“Gonzalez?”
When I first came to Ascend, the vice-captain of the Iron-Blooded Knights of the Marquis Valanti introduced himself as the head of the disaster investigation team.
And the guy I planted the black shackles on.
“Long time no see?”
“Three… …Three, Your Majesty!!”
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen him, but he looks at me with a really happy expression.
It’s as if I’ve found a savior.
Hey, we’re not that close.

Just then, Dolsoe untied the guy’s hair.
Gonzalez, who was a 7th circle inspector but was forced to become an 8th circle by the black shackles, runs towards me like a madman without looking back.
no.
“Why are you here? It’s still a long way from being three months old.”
“Your Majesty… … I feel so wronged. I have nothing to do with those dead bodies over there.”
It feels so sincere that it almost makes me feel a little sad.
But this kid doesn’t answer my questions and just keeps doing weird, nonsensical things.
“Confucius… … .”
It also feels like they’re trying to produce a melodrama.
Oh, really.
“Why did you come?”
“Uh… … That’s… … .”
The boy searched through his pockets and then took out a letter.
Then he hands it to me politely.
“This is a letter from a man named Abeiro asking you to deliver it to Confucius.”
“okay?”
“yes.”
I got it first.
Aveiro.
What did our prospective Dean of the Department of Information Sciences, who was on vacation in the Marquisate of Valanti, write?
Before opening the letter, I turned my head for a moment.
A lock standing proudly.
And then there’s the yard lock and the four corpses next to it.
A total of four knights, including one knight who is either Caterfell or Winterfell.
At a quick glance, it seemed that only the heart had been cleanly pierced.
So the 4th Death Knight series has been supplemented.
“Put those bodies out there where they can’t be seen.”
(insect!)
As I was opening the letter, I felt like I had forgotten something.
This time, I turned my head to the opposite side and saw our little ones staring at me with blank expressions, and Dean Gray holding a sword in such an odd posture that it felt awkward.
Without saying anything, I looked at Dean Gray and made a slight nod towards the kids. He swallowed hard and nodded.
I like Dean Gray more than I thought.
You’re actually quicker than I thought.
I looked at Dean Gray for a moment as he led our children into the villa, then opened the letter.
