Episode 206
* * *
A mountain of corpses.
Cell was standing in a cold atmosphere that had long since surpassed the chilliness of the cemetery.
“Are you okay?”
Cell slowly turns his head at the sound of a voice coming from behind him.
A face stained with blood.
In the meantime, two brightly shining eyes discovered a woman.
Elizabeth Valantier.
She was looking worried as she was Jack’s sister, the savior of his life and the boss he wanted to be by his side for the rest of his life.
In a way, that kind of expression was natural.
He killed over thirty people.
Each of them led a family and was a chieftain who could command hundreds or even thousands of people.
Cell didn’t just kill them, he subdued them and slowly made them feel pain, then killed them while instilling overwhelming fear.
Without leaving out a single one.
-They were people worth killing. At least to me.
Elizabeth shakes her head.
“That’s not what I meant, I was just asking if you were okay.”
Then he takes a quick look around at the surrounding disaster.
“You talked to the writer about how you were treated and what happened in the laboratory.”
-That’s right.
“It’s your revenge and what you did. I respect that.”
Elizabeth walked slowly and stretched out her arms.
It looked like he was trying to grab it, so Cell took a step back.
It’s not that I was wary of Elizabeth or anything.
I just backed off because I had blood on my body and I knew that if anyone touched me, the blood would definitely get transferred to me.
but.
Kwak-
I couldn’t avoid Elizabeth’s hand.
Elizabeth was already a 6-circle mana user, but recently she has grown rapidly into a 7-circle mana user.
That much was possible.
“Cell.”
After calling his name, Elizabeth hugged him very, very tightly.
Just like when I hugged Jack one day.
Just like when I hugged Jack, who was gritting his teeth and holding back tears that were almost breaking his teeth, a dozen years ago.

I just hugged you.
“great job.”
Aveiro and Ron, who were looking at the two, were surprisingly thinking the same thing.
I know what kind of person Elizabeth is.
Although he seemed a little flustered by the reaction, he quickly adapted and hugged Elizabeth.
It was all expected.
The problem now is.
The real biggest problem and the thing that needed the most attention was not Cell and Elizabeth.
Now, the Teslan Kingdom is practically destroyed.
Since this is something that only happened within the academy, rumors are probably being controlled, but this.
If we don’t act quickly, it could lead to a union of kingdoms, a civil war, or worse.
Anyone who can handle this?
Jack Valantier, who is like a son to Ron and a lord to Aveiro.
Jack, who planned all this.
There is nothing else.
So the two were thinking like this.
What is Jack doing now?
* * *
But suddenly I’m curious.
“What are those Magic Legion guys doing? The leader, the old man, has been locked up in this prison for three days and I haven’t seen a single trace of him.”
“… … .”
“Are you saying that you just told me not to come?”
“okay.”
He smiled faintly.
“Is it because your children are involved? You must have thought that your two sons would keep your father alive, but you were a little complacent. If your father dies, they will all fall apart.”
“… … .”
“Actually, I never asked or looked into it because I wasn’t interested, but I suddenly became interested. What is the exact strength of the Magic Legion?”
The inspiration answered without hesitation.
“First of all, there are no mana users below the 5th circle. At least 5th circle mana users are affiliated with the magic corps, and there are currently 50 5th circle mana users, 110 6th circle mana users, 45 7th circle mana users, 50 8th circle mana users, and 5 9th circle mana users. That’s a total of 260 people. A magic corps made up of only magicians, not physical ones, this is the full force of ‘Valencia’.”
I should say I was a little surprised when I first heard it.
When I heard this directly, I realized that it wasn’t at a good level.
It’s at an excellent level.

Although there are no masters, the fact that there are a considerable number of mana users in the 7th and 8th circles means that the waist area is solid.
It has been said that if you have a strong waist and strong thighs that support it, you will be good at night work, and Valencia, the secret magic unit created by the inspiration, had all of that.
“Valencia… … Well, someone I know said it means a brave spirit. How interesting.”

Even all of them are wizards.
That’s why they were able to use strategies like blowing up all the capitals.
Strictly speaking, the power that the inspiration spoke of is similar to the power of the Canaan Kingdom, which is evaluated to be slightly stronger than the Teslan Kingdom.
Of course, the number of masters was excluded.
If you include that, the calculations get a little complicated.
however.
“Have you been hiding that kind of power all this time?”
He answers right away.
“There was nothing to write about.”
“is it so?”
“okay.”
When you say it like that, I’m speechless.
Okay, now that you’ve gotten your head around it, let me ask you again.
“What’s the answer to the question I asked earlier?”
“… … Promise me just this one thing.”
“What is it?”
The inspiration looks at me with serious eyes.
“I will help you with whatever it is you want to do. But.”
I looked at the inspiration without saying a word.
It looked pretty disturbing.
What on earth are you trying to say?
The word ‘but’ at the end of a sentence.
What will be the next word?
I was really curious.
The inspiration comes to me.
“I thought to myself as I talked to you. You say that you seek the ‘safety of all the people,’ and that most of what you do ultimately leads to the safety of all the people. Am I right?”
I don’t know if you’re talking about faith.
This is certain.
“The safety of all the people… … is a little different.”
“different?”
“Yes. I seek the safety of the innocent and the wrongdoers, not the safety of all the people. Maybe it’s because I grew up getting beaten so much, but I feel a sense of disgust when I see things like that.”
How would the inspiration have taken my sincere words?
Would it have been taken equally seriously?
Judging from his expression, it seems like he accepted it.
“If the ultimate result of all your actions is not the ‘safety of the innocent and the blameless’ that you speak of.”

“What if not?”
“I will go a different way from you.”
Normally I would have laughed, but I just didn’t laugh.
“If you can show ridiculous results if you have a good result even if you have a good result even if you have a good result, even if you can see the results, your past can be reevaluated.”
Our inspiration suddenly seems to be brimming with energy.
This is why humans are such amazing animals.
Even though he must have been quite exhausted, he looks so energetic because he has this belief.
I’m telling you, it’s really amazing.
“I don’t want to join hands with a thug. Say it yourself. Are you going to remain a thug and a hypocrite until the end?”
He chuckled and ended up laughing.
Oh, I tried not to laugh, but I ended up laughing.
I kept hearing this feeling from my grandfather, and I wondered why it happened, but now that I look back, I think it’s because we have a lot in common.
“Sir, let’s make one thing clear.”
“what?”
“Who said let’s hold hands?”
Still with my arms crossed, my body leaning against the wall, my two eyes were looking into the inspiration’s eyes.
I said let’s do it together in advance, but that’s different from holding hands.
I think you’re a little mistaken.
“Are we on equal terms?”
“… … .”
“Holding hands is a relationship that can only be established when there is fairness, a relationship where there is a clear give and take. I gave you countless chances, and you failed. So what did you give me?”
“… … .”
“It’s the same now. The old man is with me? I’m just glad that I don’t have to do any more annoying things, but there’s no other reason. But let’s hold hands? Old man. After being in prison for a few days, your thoughts seem to have become a little clouded. Shall we talk again in a few days? Then the conversation won’t be as good as it is now. Shall we do that?”
Our inspiration’s expression hardens.
“Then what do you want to do with me?”
Judging from his expression, I don’t think he doesn’t know, but I guess I should just tell him.
“When you asked me to come with you, it meant you were asking me to come under you. I am your lord and you are my subordinate.”
“… … .”
“Why? You bow your head to the Magyars, but you don’t bow your head to me?”
He smiled faintly.
I just smiled as usual, but perhaps the person receiving it felt a little differently.
“Does this mean that I should reflect on my past years of not bowing to those I should bow to, and bowing to those I should not bow to?”
Look at this.
I was just laughing, but you’re trying to give it meaning and stuff.
But it was too late to say no, so I nodded quietly.

The old man, who had been staring at me blankly, slowly exhaled.
Life in the past.
Regret for not having broken the chains with Magyar Teslan sooner.
But a new path has opened up.
The inspiration looks at me with hard eyes.
“… … There’s a saying that when a person changes, they die. Just like you said, people don’t change easily. I don’t think I’ll change either. I just made a mistake once and I won’t repeat that mistake.”
A small smile formed on my face.
“I’m going to use this same tone of speech now. Is that okay?”
He nodded.
At the same time, with a thud, the inspiration falls to his knees.
“Whew, it’s been a while since I’ve done this, so I’m having trouble getting used to it.”
The old man, who had taken a proper stance, looked up at me with serious eyes.
Then he spoke slowly.
“I, Rommel Einhard Assenble, as the former Duke and the person most responsible for deciding the future of the Dukedom, would like to ask Jack Valantier: Will you accept the entire Assenble Dukedom as your vassals?”
I looked down at the inspiration for a moment.
In my previous life, my school days lasted about three years.
Those three years would have probably been more difficult if General Rommel hadn’t been there.
I can’t even imagine it now, because back then I was just an extra student 1 or 2, just like Thanos.
Let me be honest.
I hope that my father-in-law will live a long life if possible.
I want to give you a life where you can say to yourself, “I lived well without any regrets. This was a pretty good life.”
Because I have received help in the past.
As I said before, this is what you call love.
Even if they were plotting something against me, I would have just let it go if possible.
Because as I said before, I received something.
It’s the same now.
If you become my man, I will protect you.
So, sir, let’s go on for a long time.
He reached out and helped the old man up.
“I apologize for speaking a little aggressively. I hope you don’t mind.”
“Oh, really, I can’t even tell which one is your true self anymore.”
When I see you strangely answering questions, I think to myself, you must have been in politics.
Isn’t this the specialty of politicians?
I reached out my hand.
“Let’s do our best. Keep going.”
Advertisements
The inspiration did not hesitate.
He reached out and grabbed my hand.
You can feel the strength in his hands.
That inspiration asks me.
“If you’re from the future, you probably know what my end was like. Can you tell me?”
He tilted his head.
Is this old man quick-witted or not?
Have you forgotten that I caught your Bluetooth before?
“Sir, don’t you know?”
“what?”
Oh, really.
I guess he was a bit shocked after spending a few days in prison.
So I just told him.
“Sir, I will die from a stab in the back of the head in the future.”
“… … .”
“If I were to explain in more detail, you would get stabbed in the back of the head by Bluetooth and go to heaven.”
“Ah… … Is that so?”
Pick, I ended up laughing.
Just let go of your hands.
match-
Applauded.
“Okay, then.”
“then?”
He smiled faintly.
“Let’s go to work. I have someone new to introduce you to.”
