Episode 200
It can’t exist.
It would take the entire Tulcan Empire to kill me now.
How could the weakest country, Tesla, step forward?
It’s funny to even think that it’s possible.
I slowly got up from my seat.
“You said before, you want to be ‘in that place at that time.’”
He smiled slightly and put his hand on Gray’s shoulder.
“So, let’s set up a game.”
“… … Are you talking to me?”
“Oh, you of all people.”
Gray just kept his mouth shut.
I should say that it was an expression that made me think I would never say something like that.
He said it all.
“I don’t want to bother with the situation in the kingdom, and I don’t want to see people arguing in front of me while standing in the background. Political fighting and thinking too hard are not my style. So let’s clean up and replace the dirty grill with a new one.”
Personally, I’d like to see the board made by Aveiro, but I’d also like to see the board made by Gray once.
“Gather everyone from those who were part of the council of the Teslan Kingdom to those who have even set foot in it. It doesn’t matter if they include troops, and arrange the food neatly so that it’s easy to eat.”
I ended up laughing faintly.
“How much time will it take?”
Gray Shearan.
He said with a determined expression.
“It will be enough before the field trip is over.”
“Okay, call me when you’re ready.”
Gray said with a trusting expression.
“Just leave it to me.”
Chapter 2
The field trip has begun.
The field trips that were held periodically every semester were actually nothing special for the students.
Naturally, the academy becomes empty during the field study period.
It means empty house.
The students had no idea.
What is going to happen in the empty academy.
There were students who were smiling brightly and those who had dark circles under their eyes as if they were stressed from preparing for the exam.
It was really diverse.
As I said before, they are people who have experienced field training in advance.

So, I didn’t think much of it, but it wasn’t for Charlotte, who was on her first field trip.
Charlotte found this field trip very special.
From moving a large group of nearly a thousand people in carriages to arriving at a campsite, setting up tents, and hunting wild animals that wandered around the area.
In addition, the high circle mana users belonging to the continent battlefield give lectures that are similar to real battles, and the splendid archery skills of Master Benedict, the only one on the continent who uses a bow.
There was really a lot to see.
But Charlotte couldn’t laugh.
“are you okay?”
Thanos, who asked that question, didn’t seem that happy either.
“Just, a little bit.”
“what?”
“Jack, brother… … no, Boss, you are my benefactor.”
Thanos nods.
Because Jack was a benefactor not only to Charlotte, but also to Thanos, and more.
But did I hear wrong?
Did he just say his name was Jack?
“If it weren’t for the boss, I might have died a long time ago. I want to repay the favor and be of help.”
“Do you want to?”
“I keep feeling like a burden.”
“… … .”
“Why is there always a cell next to the boss?”
Thanos said nothing.
In Thanos’s ear, Charlotte mutters, “Is it because I lost to Cell?” from the Marquis of Valantier.
This time Thanos did not answer.
He just stares blankly at Charlotte, who is sitting on the tree stump with her arms crossed.
“The boss gave me some homework.”
“‘that’?”
“yes.”
The ‘that’ we’re talking about here wasn’t anything special.
Charlotte loses her senses when she is in a state of ecstasy.
To be exact, it is a state where the mind remains sane but instincts control the entire body.
Charlotte remembers everything she does and has done while in a trance.
But he could only remember and not control his body.

Jack tells Charlotte not to lose her senses when she’s in a state of ecstasy, and even tells her to try controlling her ecstasy.
So he gave me homework like that.
In fact, Charlotte began to meditate more and more after that, focusing all her energy on solving Jack’s homework.

Charlotte, then, raises her head.
“I’ve gotten the feel of it… … but I’m still not sure.”
“so?”
Charlotte, who had been sitting on the ledge, gets up forcefully.
“Let’s spar, us.”
“……now?”
“yes.”
Thanos couldn’t refuse.
Not exactly.
Thanos didn’t show it just now, but he was just as upset as Charlotte.
The object of that disappointment was not Jack.
Cell, who is right next to Jack right now.
It was a little dragon.
What should I say?
It almost feels like the cells are distancing themselves.
Charlotte felt it and Thanos felt it.
So that’s why these two are in such a bad mood right now.
* * *
The field trip schedule has begun.
To be exact, one day has passed since the field trip schedule began.
That is, a total of ‘4 days’ have passed since the moment I told Gray to try to make a board.
More than I thought happened during those four days.
I should say it’s really exciting.
I felt it from the moment we first met, our Gray Sheeran.
He was definitely a capable man.
The first thing Gray did was to ‘cover up’ my killing of the Academy students.
This was possible because Gray was the head of the Department of Swordsmanship, which was a core department of the academy, and because the old man, who had become very busy recently, delegated most of the work to Gray.
After controlling the rumors in this way, Gray went straight to the palace and had a private meeting with the king, where he said this.
‘The academy will soon change, and the exchange between academies will become more active across the continent. So, how about gathering all the nobles together and having a frank discussion about the future of the kingdom?’
Agares Teslan sitting on the throne.
I know how he looks at Gray.
It must have been very nerve-wracking.
Even though he wasn’t his own person, he wasn’t without national influence, and he was even a vassal of Jack Valantier, who was called a crazy person, so it was natural for him to be indifferent.
But that doesn’t mean I could ignore his words.
Because it would have sounded pretty good.

‘All nobles… … .’
‘Besides, the succession ceremony hasn’t ended yet, right? How about gathering all the nobles and writing a petition or something?’
‘A declaration of support… Let’s leave a formal proof that all the nobles support me and make a justification?’
‘Yes, Your Majesty.’
Although Agares Teslan sat on the throne, he was not technically king.
As is often the case with nobles, Agares was merely making a case for a cause.
The current king, Mazar Teslan, is bedridden and unable to perform his duties as king, so the crown prince, Agares, acts as king in his stead… … That is Teslan’s current situation.
To Agares, who was slowly preparing for the succession ceremony, Gray’s words must have felt like a shower in a dry sky.
‘That sounds pretty good, where is it?’
‘This is the Academy conference room. All students from the first to fourth grades are currently out of the Academy for a field trip, so there are plenty of seats. I’ll probably have at least a few more days, what do you think?’
It’s been several weeks since the Alliance of Kingdoms was launched.
In a situation where the exchanges between the nobles of each kingdom were gradually becoming more active, if the nobles of each country were awkward with each other, that could become another problem in its own way.
Gray said that when he reached this point, Agares smiled incomprehensibly and said:
‘I will do as you say, provided you satisfy one condition.’
‘What are the conditions?’
‘Continental Battlefield, I would like at least someone of the level of Harold, Roland Lynch’s son, to attend. It would be better if Roland Lynch himself came. Of course, this is a requirement and there are other conditions.’
‘… … .’
‘I will tell you the conditions from now on.’
Gray said that the Crown Prince laughed very sinisterly at this part.
But when you listen to what happens next, it certainly feels that way.
Because that’s what he said.
‘I want to see Jack Valantie in person. Even if the Continental Battle Commander is present, if Jack Valantie is not present, this conversation will be for naught. However, if he is present, I will issue a letter to all the nobles in my name as you have said. How do you like it? That is my condition.’
It was funny that he was setting conditions as if he were the superior when he wasn’t, but Gray tried his best not to show it.
Because everything was going according to plan and as expected.
So Gray came to the villa and told me the whole story.
As soon as Gray finished speaking, I wrote a letter to Roland and sent it, and within a few hours I received this reply.
(I will attend.)
So everything happened so quickly that day.
An official document was sent down to all nobles within the Kingdom of Teslan in the name of the King.
‘The Kingdom of Teslan is about to start anew by changing the name of the Academy to Milos… … and in order to respond more flexibly to the rapidly changing political situation on the continent… … something or another… … Shouldn’t the nobles, who are the backbone of the kingdom, all come together and unite… … blah blah.’
The official document was sent down in this manner. The inspiration expressed his support for Agares Teslan and expressed his intention to attend.
Since the inspiration agreed, all the nobles who followed the inspiration showed their intention to attend as if they had been waiting for it, and that is how today came.
I am at the highest level in the academy with my master.
I was sitting on the top of the tower.
-… … I told you this before.
Advertisements
Oh, I forgot.
There was a cell next to me.
-When I was in the lab, I didn’t see ‘all’ the faces of the people who had been there.
The guy’s gaze is down.
It was stuck on a man who was visible about 200 meters below.
-But I remember a few of them. The ones who forced me to remove the ‘Blind’ spell that was blocking their vision, the ones who looked at me and taunted me, asking if I was that dragon, like they were looking at a pet, and one of them is walking over there right now.
I also turned my head to where the guy’s gaze was directed.
A series of groups seen there.
Each and every one of them was not easy to see.
There are about thirty people who appear to be between Circle 7 and Circle 9.
And behind them, there are about 90 6-circle mana users.
To be honest, I think that bushy beard and rugged body are quite distinctive, but I can’t tell even if I keep looking at them.
He’s a person I don’t remember.
But the deduction was possible.
In the weakest nation, the Kingdom of Teslan, there are exactly three families that can lead that many troops.
The Wang family, the Ascendants, and the Malones.
If it had been the royal family, the Knights Templar would have come, and indeed the Knights Templar came.
They arrived earlier and are already settling in, and the next ones to arrive are the Ascendible family.
That is, there is only one thing left.
The bandit-like man over there right now is the head of the Malone Duke family.
This is Bastian Malone.
