Episode 234
Winds change stock
“Wonju?”
“No, where on earth did you go?”
When Augustine entered the room, the eyes of the elders were all focused on him.
While escaping from the world of images and guarding Elric, who had fainted again, he suddenly left, saying that he had some business nearby, and returned less than 10 minutes later.
‘I don’t think these leeches will do any good.’
Augustine did not feel the need to tell the other elders about his meeting with Belot.
Since they are such a wide-ranging group of people, it was obvious that they would be giving advice and talking nonsense next to them.
but.
“hmm… ?”
Agenda and Gility cuddled up next to him and looked at him with a strange gaze.
Sniff. Even smelling it made me wonder what kind of crazy person this was.
Augustine’s face distorted.
“Oh, what else?”
“no. Isn’t your brother actually smiling? So it’s clear that they’ve been doing something without us knowing.”
“What are you talking about… !”
“Are you saying you want to fool my nose? “You can fool a ghost, but you can’t fool my nose.”
As this happened, the other elders became all noisy.
“What, what really happened?”
“Won-ju! “Is this really what happens between us?”
“You haven’t found a disciple like Elric again, have you?”
“Teach us too!”
“Teach me!”
Augustine’s face became more distorted.
‘shit! ‘These again!’
The reason why he is reluctant to tell certain things to the elders.
It was because of this childlike stubbornness.
As if they were putting their age behind them, these people, whose average age was over 70, had a personality that could hardly tolerate being bored.
If something seemed interesting, they would flock to a group and try it out for themselves to be satisfied, and if it didn’t meet their own level of desire, they would often give up.
The same goes for Elric Gun.
The reason why Augustine tried to hide Elric until the end was also similar.
The common desire of all of them is to find a well-rounded person to whom they can pass on the achievements they have devoted their entire lives to researching. However, in most cases, his standards were so high that he was unable to have any decent disciples.
There was a contract with the Neresta family, so they knew that even if they died, the results they produced would never be lost.
Still, raising a successor directly was a completely different story.
In the meantime, Elric, a genius, appears?
It was clear that there would be a fuss over each other trying to keep it all to themselves, so I tried not to reveal it at all costs.
As Augustine was an eccentric elder belonging to the Senate, he also had a strong desire to have Elric all to himself.
But what was the result?
In the end, didn’t Elric get stolen(?) by those sly old men.
What’s more, they’re letting someone take away an interesting item like Bellot, which they found for the first time in a while?
This could never have happened!
-I am… I want to live quietly… . I want to know the world… I want to know why I live… .
oh my god. A demon king who philosophically considers the reason for his existence… !
As Augustine, who had only seen demon lords, including Hyul, who were faithful to their own instincts and desires and were no better than beasts, he couldn’t help but be interested.
So Augustine just released Belot.
No, even if he encountered humans, he even took care of them so that the demons would not be detected.
-This… ?
-Hehehehe. It’s a tattoo that covers one’s magical disposition. That way, even if you go directly to the city, you won’t have to worry about being discovered as a demon lord.
-So, why is this… ?
-I thought it would be fun.
-fun… ?
-I am releasing you because I think it would be okay to have at least one demon lord like you. Of course, this is not without conditions.
There are two conditions that Augustine placed on Belot.
-First, do not harm humans. The other is, don’t use a seal. If you raise your demonic energy even just a little, this tattoo on you will disappear along with it.
-that… !
-Of course, since my strength and stamina are the same, there will be no problem at all in my daily life. If you break your covenant with me and reveal your power… I promise. This old man will personally come to you and rip out your head.
-… .
-I know that not all demons are the same. But I also know that in the end, demons can only be demons. But if you’re willing to look beyond that.
-Isn’t that a good thing?
Belot stood silently for a while, pondering the meaning of Augustine’s words, and then left without even saying thank you.
But Augustine didn’t care much.
Because I knew that was his own concern.
‘Heulheul. I hope this old man’s insight is not wrong.’
Augustine’s team, Nokya, has been following Hul for a long time and has grown to hate the demons.
On the other hand, because of that, he had deeper knowledge about demons than anyone else.
Augustine also experienced numerous encounters with demons in the process.
That was the reason why one of his arms belonged to a dark elf.

Thick!
‘That guy, even though he looked dull on the outside, the smell he gave off seemed similar to yours. I hope the results are a little different.’
Augustine stroked one arm with his hand and muttered softly to his old friend who was no longer in this world.
anyway.
I could never tell them the story about Belot.
never!
“Look at this brother. You’re putting a lot of pressure on your eye wrinkles again. “Brothers, what should we do with our Wonju?”
Giliti read Augustine’s expression, clicked his tongue and looked back at the elders.
The elders slowly approached Augustine with their eyes wide open.
“The good thing is.”
“We should share it together.”
“Of course.”
“therefore.”
“Give it to me!”
Looking at the old people walking around like a horde of zombies. Augustine had to think about how to cook these.
‘I can’t just blow these young people away!’
I really wanted to do that, but according to the internal rules of the Neresta family, disputes between vassals were strictly prohibited, so not being able to do so was just a shame.
Of course, it won’t be easy for Augustine to deal with so many elders at once.
“I’m awake!”
Sean burst open the door and came in, shouting.
A face filled with relief for some reason.
Augustine and the elders all turned towards him.
“Elric, he’s awake!”
There was no longer anything left in the minds of the elders about Augustine.
Rumble. Everyone came together and entered the room where Elric was.

“What about the head? What about the most important hair?”
“First of all, I don’t think there’s anything wrong other than mild dizziness?”
“But take a closer look! “What are you going to do if there’s even some residual magic energy left?”
“I’m already doing it, so stop urging me!”
“Prompt? Jaechooook? Our precious disciple is lying down. What are you doing?”
“… .”
“Reflexes and motor skills are normal! The sympathetic nervous system seems to be fine, and… .”
“What about Mana Rod? How about there?”
“This, this!”
“why? why? Is something wrong?”
“Oh, no… . The magic circuit… ! A magic circuit that has never been discovered since the polyp… ! Oooooh!”
“Dragon blood! “There’s also dragon blood!”
“also! Our student is truly amazing. In that sense, just one serum… .”
“… .”
“What color are your eyes? Why are your eyes like this? It seems a bit blurry. “I can’t focus.”
“Wasn’t it like this originally?”
“huh? Did you?”
“Originally, our student was a bit rude.”
“… .”
Lose self-confidence.
No, this went beyond that level and was crazy.
After the elders of the Senate insisted on checking on Elric, the hospital room, which was supposed to be quiet, became too noisy.
Wouldn’t he be massaging Elric’s hands and feet, looking at and admiring the magic circuit, or trying to draw blood directly from one side… .
Rather than a treatment, this was very similar to the enthusiasm one would see when encountering a strange male test subject.
That’s because, in the eyes of the elders, Elric’s body was nothing short of a bonanza.
Even though they are veterans who have lived for decades and have experienced many experiences that others cannot experience in their lifetime.
Even in their eyes, the body of Elric, who had awakened dragon blood and was equipped with a magic stone, was very amazing.
It was said that he gained the power of a dragon that had been extinct for over a thousand years, so it was strange that his eyes did not turn back.
But the problem was that Elric was a patient who still needed absolute stability.
The bigger problem is.
‘That’s called ‘Elic’.’
Elric had not said anything even after waking up from consciousness.
dead pan.
Even when the elders touched his hands and feet here and there, he didn’t say anything and just looked at them indifferently.
On the outside, it might seem like he was just worried and unable to say anything due to the teachers’ fuss.
To Sean, it looked completely different.
Like an active volcano about to explode.
This was why Sean secretly walked towards the door so that he could escape at any time.
“Master?”
When Elric opened his mouth for the first time, the eyes of the elders equally turned towards him.
“Did you call me?”
“okay! “Your master is here.”
“What am I going to say, my boy? Do you need anything? “I’ll bring you everything!”
“Is it cold? Should I get you a thicker blanket? Or are you hungry? “I brought a packed lunch. Would you like some?”
There was even madness in the eyes of the elders who tried to catch Elric’s attention.
but.
“… .”
Elric didn’t answer any of those questions.
The old people naturally realized that Elric’s gaze was fixed somewhere else, and they hastily turned their heads in that direction.
Augustine was there.
“Hmm! Hum hum! okay. Is there anything you would like to ask of this teacher?”
Augustine had to barely suppress the fact that his mouth was almost agape inside him. And he asked, holding his back as he cleared his throat.
Elric nodded lightly.
“Can you please get rid of these annoying people?”
Augustine laughed darkly at those words.
On the other hand, the other elders’ complexions became hard.
It is said that the internal rules of the Neresta family strictly prevent disputes between vassals, but if there is a justification (?) for a disciple’s request, it is not a violation of the internal rules to take action against those who were no more than a thorn in one’s eyes.
“Hehehe! Since this is a favor from our student, I will help you, Master.”
Augustine rolled up his sleeves and strode forward.
The elders also began to cast magic while gritting their teeth.
“Eight! Won-ju! “I don’t know what you did to our cute Elric!”
“There will never be a monopoly!”
“At this point, Wonju will be taken away, and we will also get our share(?) of Elric back!”
Uddangtangtang!
Grumble, rumble-
As he jumped out the window and the fight between Augustine and the elders began, the outside world became noisy.
On the other hand, the interior became very quiet as if it had never been that way.
Sean asked, looking at Elric with a very shocked expression.
“Are you aiming for it?”
“of course.”
“Ugh!”
Sean had to sigh at the thought of Elric now playing on the heads of the elders.
