Side Story Episode 7 – Crazy Stranger (1)
The conference hall was literally turned upside down.
“Me, me, me…!”
“Where is this place!”
Frenzied nobles run with them.
It wasn’t just a fuss.
“How dare a stranger insult the imperial family!!!”
“What are you doing! Hurry up and don’t drag him out!”
His spirit was ferocious as if he would even kill Seo-joon at any moment.
So is Carls.
So are the nobles here now.
I wonder how this side of the dimension is going to kill people for the first time.
A small sigh leaked from Seo-joon without even realizing it.
Well, unlike Carl’s, it wasn’t an incomprehensible reaction this time.
The crown prince is the successor of the emperor.
It was the existence of the position next to the emperor.
Since I said ‘unlucky’ to such an existence in the face, of course I have no choice but to try to kill it.
The only problem was that Seojun didn’t do that.
“What are you going to do with this?”
<Hee!!>
When Seo-joon murmured softly, the mentor looked startled in his arms.
A slightly overlooked view.
There, the mentor was immersed in a sense of shame, tapping his mouth.
It seemed that the mentor also came out unintentionally.
Seojun shook his head while looking at such a mentor.
Anyway, the words have already been spit out and can’t be picked up.
Now, even if you blame the mentor,
Nothing changed.
And above all…
Because it wasn’t wrong.
“If you are a stranger, you will take care of yourself like a stranger. I dare not even know the subject…!”
“Your Highness the Crown Prince! This must be dealt with severely!”
Now, how do we get this atmosphere resolved…
If I apologize, will you accept it?
Or do you just throw it all over?
‘Hmm…’
That’s when I was trying to figure out how to do this.
“stop!”
In an instant, a loud cry echoed throughout the conference hall.
At the same time, the atmosphere in the conference hall, which had been cluttered, suddenly subsided.
A natural gaze.
Cals was sitting there with a serious expression on his face.
And with such Carl’s whole body, momentum to overwhelm the surroundings exploded.
Compared to the Transcendental Sword Master, it was a long way… No, even using the word “Sword Master” was embarrassing.
Even so, the hero of the cataclysm, Kals with skills beyond that.
The momentum emitted by Carl’s was enough to control the atmosphere in the conference room.
“He is a guest invited by me. But what disrespect to you now?”
Carls yelled at the nobles in a voice full of anger.
Nor is it an interrogation,
It was because he invited Seo-jun to the imperial palace and suppressed him.
of course···.
Although, in the first place, this side did the rudeness first.
“I invited you out of the blue, but I think I made a mistake by making a mess in a strange place, so don’t make this an issue anymore.”
Cals calmed down the nobles, as if forgiving them generously for what they had just done.
But why is the expression slightly frowning…
Even if he said that, it seemed that he felt a little bad.
what though
What more can the party say to forgive?
however.
“Haona, Your Highness! This is something that should not be taken lightly!”
“Yes, Your Highness! The author’s actions are a clear insult to the imperial family. This must be strictly governed by the Yellow Law!”
The nobles didn’t seem to be like that at all.
And Seo-joon was able to notice at once the reaction of such aristocrats.
Even though Carls is called a sword master and has a position second only to the emperor, he does not have enough power to control the nobles.
“Didn’t I say I was fine?”
At the reaction of the nobles, Cals distorted his expression.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
At the same time, a tingling force burst through Carl’s whole body.

The nobles were all suppressed by the momentum and kept their mouths shut.
But just then.
“majesty. This is not just a matter of your Highness. Please consider that it is also related to the dignity of the imperial family.”
Someone stepped forward and spoke to Carl.
An old man was standing there.
The overall atmosphere is old-fashioned.
And if that old warrior orphaned orphaned a serpent about 10 times, would it be like that?
Above all, it seemed that the old man was not at all intimidated by Carl’s momentum.
There was no change in facial expression.
Seo-joon looked at the old man calmly.
Intermediate courses in the Transcendental Curriculum consisting of introductory-beginner-intermediate-advanced.
To be precise, it was an intermediate level that seemed to have just entered the advanced level.
In a word, he was a talented person who could not be compared on Earth, and was an exceptional talent who could not be easily found throughout the dimension.
That’s why Seo-joon knew at once.
That person is the representative of the nobility here.
“Sir Bethel.”
Carls looked at the old man and murmured softly.
The old man called Vettel looked down slightly and faced such a Carls.
Be polite, but don’t give in.
In any case, it was certain that the serpent had orphaned number 10.
Carls raised his eyebrows slightly and said.
“I don’t know what you mean, but this incident was completely brought on by me. So let’s just skip this time.”
“If that’s what Your Highness means…”
Vettel resigned without further objection.
From the start, it seemed that he had no intention of refuting Carl’s opinion.
It seemed that he just didn’t like the atmosphere of being dragged away by Carl.
Vettel took a step back and glanced at Seo-jun at the same time.
Seojun, who was looking at Vettel, met Vettel’s eyes.
Our eyes met for a while.
food.
Vettel laughed and turned her head again.
It looks like it will pass this time.
It was a nuance that seemed to say that if you are a stranger, do not act rashly like a stranger.
<What about that old man? Aren’t you more resourceful than Carl?>
At that moment, the voice of the mentor came from inside his arms.
With a slightly looking down gaze, the mentor seemed to ask when that was the case.
She was looking at Vettel with her cheeks puffed out.
Fortunately, the surroundings were quite cluttered,
Besides, it was just that no one listened to it because it was a small whisper…
No, maybe Vettel heard…?
just as expected.
Vettel’s laughing expression hardened for an instant.
It was as if he heard the voice of a mentor whispering like a rare talented person.
But since the only person who heard it was himself, he couldn’t say anything.
Seo-joon unknowingly burst into laughter.
It was so messy, but the situation was sorted out.
“There was a sudden situation, but it seems to have calmed down, so let’s get into the agenda right away.”
In the meantime, Carl’s solemn voice was heard.
“The reason for inviting strangers here is simple.”
Eventually, Carls calmly scanned the crowd.
Then, he stopped where Seojun was standing and slowly opened his mouth.
“Currently, His Majesty the Emperor is missing.”
“majesty!”
“majesty!”
At the same time, the nobles shouted in amazement.
Unlike just before,
It was an expression I never expected to hear such words come out of Carl’s mouth.
Apparently, the disappearance of the emperor was an outside secret.
It was a natural reaction when I revealed it to a stranger who looked like a stupid bastard.
“Therefore, many efforts were made to find His Majesty, but… in the end, he could not be found.”
However, Carls didn’t care at all and continued.
“So I’m going to ask the stranger here for help with that matter.”
After Carls finished speaking, he looked around the crowd once more.
Contrary to the expectation that opinions would be divided,
The nobles showed no different reaction.
I wonder if he had guessed from the time he said that the emperor was missing.
If you think about it, there was no reason to stop you from helping.
but.
“You can’t blindly ask for help from a stranger.”
The problem started from here.
“Therefore, I would like to give the imperial family assets as well as the empire’s budget as a reasonable compensation.”
“That, what nonsense…!”
“majesty! That is nonsense!”
After Carl’s words, the nobles went crazy.
“The imperial family’s assets are not enough, so the empire’s budget is drawn! Even to a stranger!”
“This is exploiting the blood of the imperial people!”
“Impossible! Please take my orders!!”
It really lifts, jumps and flies.
It was very spectacle.
He was running more crazy than just before, when his mentor accidentally spilled his words.
Hagisa, in a way, it was a natural reaction.
It was no different from saying that I would spread this and that to strangers I didn’t know.
That’s why, to be honest, Seo-jun was also suspicious.
Although it is said that along with Aren’s letter of recommendation, Seo-joon showed the power.
Now, Carl’s words suddenly accelerated.
It didn’t seem that much of a difference.
To be precise, the question was whether it was worth spending that much money on Seo-joon.
To put it bluntly, I’d rather put the money elsewhere…
Could it be that there are other circumstances that I am not aware of?
I guess I’ll have to listen to the details to know.
Anyway, if Seo-joon is like this too.
What are the nobles like?
“majesty. I think this is an unwise decision.”
just as expected.
Vettel, who had been listening quietly, stepped forward again.
When Vettel came out, the other nobles kept their mouths shut.
And a word that followed.
“I think it would be the right decision to ask Aren for help.”
At Vettel’s words, the other nobles nodded their heads.
And Carls seemed to know that.
He slowly opened his mouth to those nobles.
“I have already asked Aren for help.”
“…?”
Vettel tilted her head at Carl’s sudden words.
What nonsense are you talking about…? For a moment, the expression.
As expected, did he ate 10 orphaned snakes?
Vettel immediately understood Carl’s words and slowly turned her head toward Seo-joon.
“What did you just say…?”
And Vettel’s murmur continued.
As if answering Vettel’s question, Carls opened his mouth again.
“Isn’t the result of that help right in front of you?”
“…?”
“…?”
At the same time, the expressions of the other nobles also began to dim.
Carls said as if driving a wedge into such a question.
“He came here on the recommendation of Mr. Aren.”
“·······!!!”
“·······!!!”
Then, the eyes of all the nobles, including you, began to open wide.
Vettel also seemed quite surprised.
Two wrinkled eyes widened.
shock and astonishment.
And stillness mixed with a bit of fear.
It was as if a promise had been made between the silence.
Everyone’s eyes turned to Seo-joon.
Seojun met that gaze and quietly spoke to his mentor.
“Is Aren’s position really great?”
<It’s the same for Kim Seo-joon when he goes to Earth. No, Seojun Kim is a popular star not only on Earth but across all dimensions! He can’t even compare to Aren!>
Of course, in a different way.
The mentor slipped away like a whisper.
It seems like it came out unintentionally even though I wanted to hear it…
Seo-joon could hear it enough.
well, anyway.
From the moment Aren’s name was mentioned, the atmosphere in the conference room changed to silence itself.
And I don’t know if it’s because of that.
“So, from now on, matters related to His Majesty will be left to strangers…”
The initiative in the ensuing meeting was always with Carls.
#
So the meeting continued,
Seojun was able to come out in the middle.
It was a place to introduce Seojun anyway,
Even if there was Seojun, there was nothing to do.
Seo-joon, who came out of the conference room, was able to return to the parlor following the guidance of the chief chamberlain.
Returning to the parlor, Seo-joon sat down blankly.
Something… complex situations were happening.
That confused my mind a little.
Seojun organized each one in his head.
first.
Aside from everything else, there were two things that worked the most.
to regain lost strength.
and returning to Earth.
For this, an enormous causal… that is, money was required.
And in order to earn that money, I had to solve what was happening in this dimension.
So, the question of what is happening in this dimension.
disappearance of the emperor.
And that the disappearance was done by Beserk.
Kals had mentioned that he had disappeared after the emperor left to subdue Beserk.
‘Hmm…’
Seojun calmly organized his thoughts.
Dragon Emperor Beserk.
It was the cataclysm, the great monster of the end called itself.
And if that beserk was the beserk that Seojun knew, it was a word that should never have been used here.
Because Beserk was obviously destroyed by Seo-jun’s hand.
It was swept away by the collapse of the universe.
No, even if it didn’t disappear.
Beserk could never have been alive.
That would be too.
‘I have Beserk’s heart?’
Because Seojun had Beserk’s intact heart.
That’s why Beserk couldn’t be alive in any way.
But how…?
Perhaps the concept of Beserk was different from what Seo-jun knew.
Or, as they say, of the same name.
Possibility that the name Beserk is the same person…
‘It can’t be.’
Seojun slowly shook his head.
Of course, it wasn’t that there were none.
But that possibility is very slim.
Therefore, Beserk had to be regarded as the Beserk that Seo-jun knew.
the problem is···.
‘How on earth?’
It was like how.
‘Hmm…’
Seojun thought over and over again.
But maybe it’s because the power of Insight [S] isn’t perfect yet.
‘I don’t know…’
Nothing particularly came to mind.
And thinking about what you don’t know will only make your head hurt.
I guess I should ask Carls more about this.
That time when I wanted Carl to come.
smart.
“May I come in?”
Carl’s voice came from outside the parlor with a knock.
Let Seo-joon say it’s okay,
Soon the door to the room opened and Carl came inside.
“Sorry to have kept you waiting so long.”
A voice that sounded like something haggard.
Perhaps because of that, his face was also slightly stained with fatigue.
Carls slowly approached and sat across from Seo-jun.
Then he looked around, looking as if he was looking for someone.
“Where are those dwarfs?”
As expected, Carls asked Seo-jun.
But what about small people?
“Oh, my mentor is sleeping in my arms right now.”
Seojun looked down slightly at the same time as he spoke.
view looking down.
There, the mentor was sleeping like the world did not know.
I felt like I was tired after speeding up here and there.
“I tried to restore my unfortunate image, but I guess I’ll have to postpone that to another opportunity.”
Carls smiled softly.
Apparently, Carls is not Seojun.
He seemed to know that his mentor had said it.
Seeing Carl’s like that, Seo-joon smiled at him… wait.
Seo-joon’s body instantly stiffened.
One thought seems out of place.
It was because it passed through my head.
The figure of Carls looking for a mentor none other than him.
It was because it made me feel so uncomfortable.
It was so natural that I forgot about it.
In fact, the appearance of the mentor was not visible to anyone other than Seo-jun.
Even in the last district, Seoyoon and other team members couldn’t see their mentor.
At the same time, the mentor’s voice is also the same.
Of course, it was possible because Aren was a first-time student at the Transcendent Academy.
But it wasn’t Carls.
No, it wasn’t exactly all beings other than Aren.
That’s why the first mentor muttered that he was unlucky.
It shouldn’t have been heard by others.
But still, I heard the voice of the mentor…?
‘What is it?’
This dimension… something is strange.
There is something Seo-joon doesn’t know.
To a mentor who shouldn’t be seen.
Even Beserk, which shouldn’t exist.
Seo-joon hardened his expression and said to Carls.
“This is a sudden question, but… could you please tell me more about Beserk?”
Cals was momentarily taken aback by Seo-joon’s unexpected question.
But is it because of Seo-joon’s firm expression and atmosphere?
Carls also straightened his expression and slowly opened his mouth.
“Actually… I don’t really know either.”
“······ yes?”
For a moment, Seo-joon felt like he was losing his mind.
You say that the emperor went missing after going to subjugate Beserk, and you don’t know about Beserk?
As Seo-jun stared blankly at him, Carls continued talking as if making an excuse.
“Because the existence of Beserk was actually a legend.”
“A legend?”
“Fairy tales for children to read. We call the powerful enemy that the hero defeats there Beserk.”
To put it simply, the word demon king was called Beserk here.
“A long time ago, the time when the beginning of the world was suitable. It is said that a monster named Beserk went on a rampage… Since then, a monster whose existence in the dimension is at stake has been called that.”
“ah···.”
Seo-joon exclaimed involuntarily.
In other words, Beserk was not the Beserk Seojun thought of.
However, Seo-joon could not easily agree with that statement.
A strange feeling, like a tickle in the chest.
Is Beserk really a different concept?
A being in a dimension where you can see your mentor.
I guess I’ll have to see it with my own two eyes.
And that means that.
That you have to run on your own feet.
‘Eh, somehow I wanted to go easily.’
Seojun shook his head.
Anyway, in order to regain my strength and return to Earth, I have to earn money.
Seojun asked Carls again.
“So what can I do?”
Then, Carls flinched and trembled.
And then he seemed to do a little bit for a while.
“That’s true… it’s a bit of a problem.”
He opened his mouth with a bitter expression.
“Is it a problem?”
Carls hesitated for a moment before opening his mouth again.
“They said they wanted to see your abilities.”
“If it’s ability… my ability?”
Carls nodded slowly and continued.
“There was a lot of backlash, saying that it makes no sense to give money to strangers who are completely unfamiliar with it. He tried to convince him by mentioning Aren, but in the end, we came to the conclusion that we should look at his ability first.”
Carls gave a self-deprecating smile.
Seojun seemed to be leading the meeting.
In the meeting that followed, it seemed that this was not the case.
I didn’t watch the whole process,
There was a possibility that he was swayed by a man named Vettel.
The Vettel I saw at the conference could have done that.
“and···.”
Carls couldn’t say anything and swallowed it.
He didn’t spit it out, but Seo-joon was able to guess what it was.
Perhaps Carls was also not convinced of Seo-jun.
If Seojun hadn’t shown inaction for the first time,
And if it weren’t for Aren’s recommendation,
It must have been difficult for them to meet in the imperial palace like this.
That’s why Seo-joon became more and more curious about the contents of the recommendation window.
“What was written on Aren’s letter of recommendation?”
“Hmm… It’s probably faster to see this than to explain it.”
Cals handed Aren’s letter of recommendation in his arms.
Seojun received a letter of recommendation and confirmed it.
A splendid rhetoric was added along with the elegant writing style.
And, excluding such fancy rhetoric, it was as follows to start with the main subject.
“I know roughly what you are thinking.
A bastard with one screw missing.
Are you thinking?
But even though it looks like that on the outside, I can’t do anything about it.
Hard to believe, but it really is.
So, it’s better not to think about fooling around.
Well, this isn’t a warning, it’s advice.
If, however, you still want to
If you think you’ll go crazy if you don’t.
I won’t bother drying it.
Sometimes experiencing it speaks louder than words.
But I don’t know much about the aftermath.
One last piece of advice, though.
There are many beings who unknowingly fight against him and see blood.
They are difficult to explain,
They are transcendent beings that you can’t even imagine.
well anyway
Just ask for help.
Exactly the money you have, the money you don’t have.
Collect all the treasures, assets, and budgets of the imperial family and ask for them.
Then maybe pretend you can’t win.
I’m sure he will help you.
Maybe you’re holding back a smile or a smile…
Just say it’s because of your mood and move on.
Like I said, I don’t know what’s going to happen to me if I’m bothered.
Anyway, that’s a long story, but to sum it up in one word.
All you need is to ask Seojun Kim.
With money attached.”
.
.
.
widely.
“·······”
After checking the contents of the letter of recommendation, Seo-joon was at a loss for words.
Is this why I told you never to read it?
No, but wait.
Where the hell did you see this as a recommendation?
“I have never seen a being that Aren-nim speaks to this extent. Even His Majesty, the person who treats you as a baby goes this far…”
However, seeing Carls say that, it seemed to fall within the category of ‘recommended’ as a result.
well anyway
Thanks to that, I had a corner to make money, so it was a good thing.
Seojun calmly organized his thoughts.
to regain lost strength.
returning to earth.
The concept of Beserk and
The secrets of this dimension.
Solving all of these things at once is, of course, cause and effect.
I had to earn money!
“Anyway, let me help you.”
And in order to make money, you have to show your ability first.
Originally, it should have gone smoothly, but…
Things went awry when a squirrel named Vettel intervened.
It was also a way to overthrow it,
The ‘causation’ that Seojun had to gather had to have a proper cause.
There was also the cause and effect of extortion…
Rather, there were many corners where the causal effect of helping could be derived much more.
And most of all, it didn’t matter.
“Instead, there are conditions.”
Because Seo-joon had no intention of remaining silent.
#
next day.
Vettel headed to the imperial palace without fail.
On the way to the imperial palace.
“I heard you received a letter of recommendation from Aren. What nonsense.”
Vettel thought for a moment about the commotion yesterday.
The prince suddenly brought a strange stranger.
How absurd it was to say that he would give away his assets out of the blue.
Looking at the tail, I wondered how it looked like the prince was roasted and boiled with Aren-nim.
It was clear that the substance was probably a bastard with no ability.
Seo-joon, whom Vettel watched over, was definitely like that.
To be precise, Vettel could not dare to judge Seo-joon’s level, but Vettel had no way to know about such a situation.
The imperial palace arrived like that.
“…?”
Vettel was momentarily dazed by the huge mountain in front of the imperial palace.
A huge mountain that was created overnight.
Even those mountains were not one or two.
And people were busily coming and going between those mountains.
Vettel approached slowly, wanting something.
“Monster corpses…?”
Upon closer inspection, it was not a mountain, but monster corpses.
“What is this…?”
At that absurd situation, Vettel looked around for a moment.
“Mi, you’re crazy… you’re crazy!”
“Sa, save me!!!”
People were working on something in front of the piles of monster corpses.
Upon closer inspection, they were not ordinary people.
“Imperial Knights…?”
None other than the Imperial Knights.
Among the elite knights called the elite were doing some strange work.
Even the staff in charge of the imperial family’s finances were all present.
Vettel caught a knight passing by just in time.
“Lerit.”
“Ah, Mr. Vettel!”
At Vettel’s call, Lelith bowed her head in moderation.
Vice-captain of the Imperial Knights,
A knight who assists Crown Prince Calth on the spot.
Vettel asked Lelith.
“Now… what are you doing?”
“We are dismantling and transporting monster corpses.”
It was a fact that anyone with eyes would know.
The question is, why are you doing that!
Seeing Vettel’s outrageous expression, Lelith opened her mouth again.
“This is what His Highness the Crown Prince directly ordered.”
“You mean His Highness the Crown Prince?”
Lelith nodded.
“That, that’s…”
And Lelith also continued talking while avoiding her eyes, as if she was dumbfounded.
“That… well, Your Highness needs money urgently, so we have to sell it quickly…”
“·······”
sinking silence.
Vettel slowly looked away.
In Vettel’s field of view, an enormous mountain of corpses was piled up.
And the level of those monsters was also not normal.
High-level monsters that even the knights have a hard time with.
Did you handle this large number alone?
is that bastard?
And that in just one day?
right at that moment.
“Here comes another pile! Take care of it quickly!”
Patty pounding.
With an erupting cry, two mountains came into existence in an instant.
“·······”
Vettel ascending to heaven.
“S-Stop sending it, you crazy bastard!!!”
Only the voices of the members full of screams echoed.
