Isaac glared at Emperor Carlos with icy eyes.
The Royal Guard Jacule Calix and the Imperial Knights put their hands on the handle of the sword.
The ice knight, Morkan, also took a preparation action so that he could pull out the white silver sword from his waist at any time.
The sound of the sword body moving in the scabbard came out simultaneously.
“Uh, wait a minute?! Ahh… !”
In the bloody atmosphere, the person who freaked out the most was definitely the principal, Elena. Both of her hands wandered in the air. It was because he was at a loss as to how to stop Isaac, who was standing here as an ice festival, not just a student.
Isaac said in a cynical tone.
“I think I overlooked it because I was still on a floating island and subjugated everything, personally supporting the demon problem, and treating it with a good smile. You are Eul.”
Isaac did not deny what Emperor Carlos had said. Rather, I thought it was a reasonable opinion from the emperor’s point of view.
But that wasn’t the point.
The logic of power is at work here. And it was clearly in Isaac’s favor.
Not to mention, Isaac was in a position to stand proud in front of Emperor Carlos in all aspects, including cause, cause, and actions.
“If you come out like that, I’m the one who’s in trouble.”
In that situation, I read Emperor Carlos’s mind with [Psychology Detect]. He used Isaac’s attitude to pull the pace of the meeting to himself, when Isaac was young and even outgoing.
At the same time, he was wary of strengthening national power in Dupendorf. After digging up information from Alice, he tried to think about how to deal with her in advance to benefit the kingdom. That was the intention of saying that, in case of emergency, he would make up for the damage.
Isaac understood even that.
Regardless of whether the other person looked down on him or not, as long as the thought itself did not come out of his mouth, he was able to tolerate it. In the first place, the emperor was also a human being, so of course he could have such thoughts.
Hands on Alice? It would be a problem if you actually put such thoughts into practice, but Isaac could sympathize with the idea. Because Emperor Carlos was in a position to think and act in a way that benefited the kingdom.
However, it was difficult for Isaac to accept the attitude of the emperor, who had such an intention and even snorted and told Isaac with a nuance to bend his stance.
Also, Emperor Carlos is a person who seeks peace and well-being of the kingdom.
He was by no means a great man to wage war against Isaac, whom no one dared to fight by force, just because he was offended.
As I said before, it’s to the extent of granting extraterritorial jurisdiction to the Archmage. Isaac took that personality into consideration as well.
That’s why Isaac decided to go out strong to wake up the awareness, and threw the dagger.
“What are we going to do now?”
“What are you saying to His Majesty the Emperor?”
Isaac glared at him savagely as Jacule questioned him in a voice full of murderous intent.
“What are you interfering with?”
“Jakul.”
Emperor Carlos lightly raised his hand to stop Jacul from saying anything else.
Jacule frowned at the tense emperor and took a step back.
“My apologies.”
Emperor Carlos sighed and closed his eyes.
“Your words were a little aggressive. I’m sorry for inciting your anger.”
Emperor Carlos opened his eyes again and looked at Isaac.
Isaac paused and his voice softened a bit.
“I understand what you are saying. It’s because you don’t know when the evil spirit will resurrect.”
The Heart Kingdom is in a different world, but Alice and Paladin are feeling guilty. Therefore, it was necessary to share the information about the resurrection of evil spirits and attract them as colleagues.
However, the Gerber Empire was not.
‘If we don’t cooperate anyway, we’re in a position where we’re bound to perish.’
In the end, the kingdom would have no choice but to join in the subjugation of the evil spirits. So, it was only necessary to maintain a moderately cooperative relationship.
Here, if important information such as what will happen to the kingdom in the future and when the evil spirits will be revived is already in hand, there is a high risk of adding unmanageable variables and confusion.
Information that has already been passed on to someone can’t be picked up again, and someone who will misuse it or cause confusion may come out. It’s not like we’ve built a relationship of deep trust.
Isaac did not want to take such an out-of-control risk. It was still necessary to save information.
“But there is also an irresistible will on this side.”
“What does that mean?”
“It’s about protecting people. As I said, Alice will be used for that job.”
“… That sublime meaning is truly appreciated.”
Emperor Carlos stared Isaac in the eye, admitted he hadn’t been careful, and decided to take a step back.
The opponent is an existence that can destroy the world as much as it wants to wield even the Primitive Demon Beast. Such an existence has protected the precious talents of the Gerber Empire, and it is a situation where they are saying that they will protect the people themselves.
Looking back, it seemed like an absurd and absurd farce.
In the first place, he didn’t even know if it was something to be thankful for, that such a great wizard was talking at the negotiating table. It must have been a lot to see that he only fired a single dagger.
However, Emperor Carlos never had the heart to give up thinking in the interests of the Empire.
“But let me tell you. Our kingdom… .”
“There is something I want to show you.”
Emperor Carlos stopped talking.
Isaac took out a pocket watch from his pocket and handed it to Morkan, the Ice Knight.
“Tell me.”
Make sure to read from noble mtl . com
Morkan returned to his place after handing the pocket watch to Royal Guard Jacul.
After examining the watch for any danger, Jacul approached Emperor Carlos and showed it to him.
“… … !”
Emperor Carlos’ eyes twitched.
Although the color was partially tinged with black, it was unmistakably a pocket watch that Snowwhite had cherished.
Emperor Carlos jumped up from his seat in a cold sweat. It was a very embarrassed face.
“Why do you have this watch… ?”
“Fortunately, he recognized me right away.”
“I can’t know this. Isn’t it Jim’s daughter, Snow White’s watch… !”
Isaac pointed at the ceiling with his index finger.
“A demon that appeared in the sky. It popped out of that watch.”
Isaac’s shocking statement shocked everyone in the conference room.
Emperor Carlos’s eyes widened. Soon, he quickly closed his expression and looked at Isaac with a wary look.
“What do you mean now?”
“When in doubt, investigate. Because the evidence will overflow.”
“… … .”
Emperor Carlos saw the imperial wizard waiting by the door and chinned his pocket watch.
“Check it out.”
The royal mage approached with a nervous face and carefully observed the pocket watch with a magic tool attached to a magnifying glass. A magic circle appeared in front of the imperial mage looking through the magnifying glass.
It wasn’t long before I realized that the watch was anything but ordinary.
“It’s definitely Princess Snowwhite’s watch. by the way… The capacity to contain mana is unfathomable. You can also see the remnants of dark magic with tremendous density. Now it has completely lost its function and can only be used as an ordinary watch… , this is what… .”
“Let’s start with the conclusion.”
“It is understood that the starry sky demons observed in the Imperial Magic Tower were contained… . There is no denying it.”
Hiding something is quite possible with perception-damping magic. Recognizing something differently would have been possible with Isaac.
However, the result of measuring the magic power of the demons in the starry sky already measured at the Imperial Magic Tower was obvious, which could not be faked or decorated. It was proof that Isaac hadn’t played any tricks with the pocket watch.
Emperor Carlos closed his eyes tightly.
It is a pocket watch Snow White received from the Empress.
It wasn’t that I didn’t doubt the watch. It was because when it was revealed that the empress had been plotting to assassinate Snow White behind the scenes, she hired a servant to closely investigate the watch.
It turned out to be a flawless watch, and it was judged to be the only birthday present the Empress gave to White normally.
So relieved, I returned the pocket watch to White. It was something she loved very much, and it meant a lot to her.
But… It seems that the pocket watch cleverly hid its original function in the first place.
Could it be that there was some perception-damping magic far beyond the level of the Imperial Magic Tower? Or was there a device similar to that?
… It would have been. It was to the extent that it contained the terrifying demon tribe that ruled the sky, commonly known as the ‘Starry Sky’. No wonder the entity that made this possible did any miracles to the watch.
Suddenly, the empress’ corpse came to mind. Even when she was in bed, she never showed her neck, saying that she had unsightly scars.
The Empress… How on earth did he receive such a watch from a dangerous demon?
“Okay… . go back.”
The imperial mage bowed her head and went back to her place.
Emperor Carlos blinked his eyes gently as he organized his thoughts.
This watch is the wealth of the imperial family.
Make sure to read from noble mtl . com
More important than that, was the fact that Isaac had solved the problem that the royal family and countless other people might have been harmed by a risk factor that he hadn’t been aware of.
Isaac has been working hard to prevent anyone from dying by moving faster than the Imperial Knights from various demon incidents.
In the end, he even blocked the last means of assassination of the empress and protected the imperial family.
It was like the kingdom owed Isaac a huge debt that he couldn’t say anything about.
Recalling that fact, Emperor Carlos lowered his eyes.
“I heard that Snow White is all right… . It was all thanks to you. Did you know in advance that this watch was unusual?”
Isaac nodded.
Emperor Carlos calmed down his troubled heart. It took a few seconds of silence for that to happen.
“I will apologize again. I owe you so much. Snow White… Thank you for protecting me.”
Isaac sat down again.
“I will keep quiet about the watch.”
“… Please.”
The abyss has left anyway, and now it is an ordinary watch that can only play its original role.
It was none of Isaac’s business if someone here secretly chatted about the clockwork and exposed the shame of the imperial family.
He just needs to show he’s caring.
Isaac solidified his position in a calm voice.
“Your Majesty Emperor Carlos. As I said before, we also want to establish friendly relations with the Empire. And I want to protect this academy, the people I made connections with at Marchen Academy. ”
“… … .”
“At the level of Dupendorf, we will share the information the Empire needs as much as possible. Also, Alice Carol promises to use it to protect this academy and the people of the kingdom. That’s the biggest reason I want Alice to continue attending the academy. so… We ask for your cooperation.”
Isaac bowed his head.
Emperor Carlos closed his eyes, sighed deeply, and sat back down.
* * *
Emperor Carlos withdrew the initial coordination plan and expressed his willingness to cooperate with my wishes. With this, Alice Carroll’s identity has completely passed over to me.
And Emperor Carlos warned, “I will cooperate to remove the stigma of Alice Carroll as much as possible, but I may change my position depending on what happens in the future.” I accepted that meaning.
The reason why Emperor Carlos gave up his will was probably because he weighed what was for the kingdom. I, who is called the great magician of rare times, has been working hard to protect the kingdom, so you don’t want to lose me.
For reference, the will of the emperor exists above the laws of the kingdom. In other words, if there is a firm will of the emperor, there is no need to discuss the matter of the law.
‘What we do is to protect the kingdom anyway.’
Alice would help me whenever the scenario progressed, and as a result, many people would be saved and saved. Since the main stage was the imperial territory, our job was to inevitably protect the imperial kingdom.
Besides that, I had several conversations with Emperor Carlos. I also said, ‘I will continue to attend Merhen Academy with Alice, but I will protect the academy as before by sharing useful information for the imperial family’.
There were many reasons for staying at the academy.
The biggest reason among them was that the key to clearing the scenario was concentrated in the academy. This is the center of <Merhen’s Magic Knight>.
Now there will appear enemies that cannot be defeated with only strong force. Even if I wanted to leave the academy, I couldn’t leave.
Anyway, after the meeting, Emperor Carlos and I decided to form a cooperative relationship.
“Your Majesty the Emperor!”
“Snow White?”
In front of the academy gate.
When Emperor Carlos, who had an escort, was about to leave in the imperial carriage, Snow White and the escort knight, Merlin Astreans, came running.
I was seeing the emperor off with the faculty and the Imperial Knights, so I met White’s eyes.
White was taken aback when he saw me, then looked bewildered. It seemed that he hadn’t decided yet how to treat me.
White and Emperor Carlos stood facing each other.
“I’m sorry I didn’t give you an audience beforehand! I didn’t even know you were here… !”
“It was Jim’s will, so don’t worry.”
Emperor Carlos approached the flustered White.
he looks like a daughter At the place where he had to meet the new Wonwang, he was concerned that meeting White would hinder his solemnity. That’s why I didn’t tell White the exact schedule of the trip.
“Your Majesty the Emperor?”
Emperor Carlos hugged White.
White had a suspicious look on his face, as if he didn’t know why.
“Thank you for being alive, my dear daughter.”
“… … ?”
Emperor Carlos left those words behind, and after staring at White for a while, got into the carriage. The escort closed the carriage door.
The imperial carriage left the academy along with the mounted guards, and the faculty members and the imperial knights all bowed their heads in unison.
“… … ???”
White stared at the departing carriage with a questioning face.
I was thinking of talking to White, but I turned my back and moved my feet.
White couldn’t seem to figure out how to treat me yet. It was intended to be considerate.
There are also things that need to be done first.
“ah.”
White’s voice.
I felt the gazes of White and Merlin, but I ignored them and hurried my steps towards the academy detention center. I was thinking of going to see Alice and Paladin.
It was then.
“Senior Isaac!!”
I stopped my feet. I never thought that White would openly call me here.
White ran toward me with Merlin.
I turned my back. White crouched in front of me, on his knees, gasping for breath.
Ah, this. Now that it was like this, it seemed like something had to be said. As much as possible, so as not to burden White.
First of all, there was a big incident, so formally… .
“White, I’m glad you’re safe… .”
“You want to leave… ?”
“what?”
what is this again?
White’s voice was soaked with sobs. She caught her breath and lifted her upper body. Tears welled up in her eyes, as if she were about to cry.
“Why do you just leave after seeing me? ? Why are you avoiding me… .”
“No, that… .”
“Huh, don’t hide it… . The sudden decrease in talking since before, in fact, it was because of this… ?”
“What is he saying now?”
I didn’t understand what ‘something like this’ meant, so I read White’s psychology.
The reason I didn’t talk much in the past was because I was learning 7-star magic. I didn’t organize my mind to reveal my identity and leave you.
I thought you reassured me. White sniffed at his new strange misunderstanding. Her voice was hoarse with sobs.
“Senior Isaac, heh, I knew he was a really great person… . Now that his true identity has been revealed, there is no reason for him to remain at this academy any longer… ? Actually, I was noticing everything… . You prepared to leave my side… .”
“It’s not like that… .”
“Don’t lie to me… ! Whoa… ! I won’t let you go!”
“Hey, White?!”
Suddenly, White cried and hugged me in my arms and buried her head in my chest. Maybe it would be nice to have this affectionate child.
Apparently, while living in the academy, I had chosen too many things that White liked. I needed to keep the right line.
Make sure to read from noble mtl . com
Merlin, the Imperial Knights, and the faculty were startled. He raised his arms slightly, as if touching the princess’s body in front of them would cause a headache.
It was difficult. I had to rectify the situation.
“No, I’m not really leaving. I’m not leaving… . I still have to teach you, but why am I leaving?”
“Aww… ! It’s a lie… !”
“Because it’s real… .”
why do i lie
Awesome!
Suddenly, the imperial carriage drifted rapidly.
The imperial carriage returned to the school gate at such a speed that the wind blew.
Emperor Carlos opened the carriage door in a gasp.
“Hey, what the hell happened to this!”
“Princess White, please stay away! body pain… !”
“Huh, old Isaac… !”
… Just be it.
