“Damn knights, let people in in the middle of the night… ?”
Two knights stood guard at the gate of the Baron Roffenheim mansion. The attendant was fed up with the knights who only knew how to exchange sex jokes all the time.
At least if he did his mission well, how could he let such a boy pass through the mansion?
Soon after, a blonde-haired young woman approached. She stood next to Isaac and smiled kindly.
what else is that The attendant had a headache for a while, but soon felt suspicious.
You just let these two youngsters in? No matter how delinquent it is, does it make sense?
‘or not… .’
Couldn’t these two come after defeating the knights?
… No, how are these young kids? The servant shook his head. It was an absurd idea.
However, the servant’s thoughts were true. Isaac defeated the knights standing guard with one stroke, crossed the garden with Alice, and reached the mansion.
“Hey. Do you think it makes sense to see the head of household at this time? If you do this, even the head of the family won’t go over well.”
Then, a tall man appeared behind the attendant.
Hearing the sound of breathing, the attendant was startled. She immediately slipped to the side and leaned her upper body toward the man.
The man stepped forward and bathed in the moonlight.
An upright back. noble demeanor. It was a middle-aged man, Baron Adrian Loffenheim, with all his bangs over.
“I’m sorry for making a fuss… ! They said they wanted to see the head of the household in the middle of the night, so I tried to expel them… !”
“Okay.”
Adrian met Isaac’s eyes.
“Did you say Isaac?”
Adrian had been overhearing the conversation between Isaac and the attendant from the beginning.
The knights on guard came to meet him because they had already figured out that Isaac had knocked them out before they had time to report.
Isaac smiled with a kind face.
“yes. Nice to meet you, Baron Lopenheim.”
“Who is the woman next to you?”
“This person is my… .”
“This is my wife.”
Alice Carroll, with a kind smile on her face, sneakily cradled Isaac’s arm to her chest and struck the ball.
“… … .”
I didn’t mean to make a fuss about this, so Isaac let out a small sigh.
It didn’t matter what role Alice played here.
Adrian turned his back without raising any questions, as if he had no interest in their relationship.
“Come in.”
Adrian readily brought Isaac and Alice into the mansion.
All Adrian needed now was at least one more sacrifice.
Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com
Just as he had lost all his family, Isaac, who was even Eve’s younger brother, came to visit.
I was once a guy who thought it would be nice to be a sacrifice. I was lucky. Now it would be nice to sacrifice Isaac.
Alice was the variable, but to Adrian, who received the power from the Death King, she was just a beautiful sacrifice.
“… … .”
Isaac expected Adrian’s idea, and he was right, but it didn’t matter what the truth was.
It was meant to break through forcefully by restricting access.
Meanwhile, the attendant could not understand why the Baron of Lopenheim had brought Isaac and Alice into the mansion.
Ordinarily, I would have caught these young guys doing the atrocity and put them in jail.
Recognizing the attendant’s questionable expression, Adrian explained briefly.
“He’s Eve’s sister.”
“ah.”
The attendant immediately understood the situation. It was because the servants who worked in the mansion knew Eve’s family affairs.
Are you an invited guest? If so, I could understand why the sentry knights had let them in, and why Baron Adrian Lopenheim had come to meet them.
Moreover, it was understandable that he, a mere attendant, did not know if he was an invited guest to be greeted in the middle of the night.
They walked down the dark hallway, relying on the small light of a portable lamp held by an attendant. Meanwhile, Alice clasped Isaac’s hand and held it.
“It’s dark, so be careful, honey.”
Isaac, unable to argue, simply replied, “Thank you.”
They entered the audience room.
“Bring the tea.”
“I will be back soon.”
The attendant went to the car and Adrian sat down on the sofa. Isaac and Alice sat side by side on the couch across from him.
A lamp on the table diffused its light, illuminating the room softly. Thanks to this, Adrian was able to examine Isaac’s face closely.
“It looks alike… .”
Even though Eve and Isaac each had different fathers, they had some similarities. The mother’s influence was great. Adrian realized it all over again.
Soon after, the attendant served tea.
“Thank you.”
“thank you.”
Isaac and Alice greeted each other politely.
The attendant set down the teacup and walked backwards out of the reception room.
Isaac carefully shook his teacup before opening his mouth.
“Sorry for coming in late at night.”
“No. I’ve already seen you stun my knights. If you think of me as an enemy, aren’t you in a position to apologize?”
Although he had already watched through the window as Isaac took down the knights, Adrian took no action.
It was because the situation was guessed.
Adrian abandoned Isaac and Eve’s mother and took Eve away. She had already thought that there would be nothing strange if Isaac sharpened his sword and came to seek revenge at any time.
“Then it should be quick.”
Isaac glared at Adrian with a smile.
“… Where is my sister now?”
Beforehand, Isaac scanned the mansion with [Clairvoyance] and noticed that Yves Lopenheim was not there.
I already knew where it was. I was just asking with the intention of mentioning Adrian.
“I want to tell you this story first.”
Adrian smiled and leaned back on the back of the sofa.
“I think there are so many worthless scumbags in this world. Especially in the outskirts of rural land like this.”
Adrian took a sip of his tea.
“You were especially like that. His magic skills were mediocre, he was born badly, and he was terribly poor.”
“You remembered.”
“It has to be. At one time, I had no choice but to investigate Eve and learn about your existence.”
All of Adrian’s outspoken words were tantamount to ignoring Isaac and uttering provocations.
It was because it meant things like ‘you are the one that most closely matches the concept of garbage that I have defined,’ or ‘I came to know your name inevitably’.
“It seems that he has come back after developing his fighting skills, but where can he go? Even if I become stronger in just a few years, it would be best to defeat a few knights of my family. Efforts are imaginary. I only sounded sad, but I’m still grateful to you. The fact that he came to me on his own just in time, and… And that all of you are pure bodies.”
Isaac and Alice rolled their eyes.
A barrier was being developed in the reception room where dark magic shimmered subtly.
“Will the writers of the young couple still mix their bodies? You just did something to thank me.”
“… … .”
“It feels good. In return, let me tell you one thing.”
Adrian smiled and spoke very calmly, as if having a casual chatter.
“It was I who killed your father.”
Adrian takes a sip of his tea and sets the cup down on the table.
For a moment, Alice frowned in surprise.
“There were two reasons. I wanted to drive Eve psychologically. In the end, Eve spoke harsh words to you as I instructed and left. And it didn’t feel right for him to covet the woman I dumped. So I killed him.”
Isaac’s father was an ordinary lower-class man with nothing to offer, and a husband who loved his wife unconditionally.
It was also the salvation of Isaac’s mother, who was abandoned and wounded by Baron Adrian Loffenheim.
However, he lost his life when his son, Isaac, was young. It must have been the moment when Isaac’s family’s world collapsed.
If Isaac’s father had been alive, his mother would not have been short-lived due to overwork and worsening illness.
Had it not been for Adrian’s harsh instructions, Isaac would not have felt the devastating feeling of being abandoned by his sister.
Isaac was left alone, tried to live somehow even though he had no one to rely on, and eventually took his own life in despair.
And, the cause of all the misfortune that Isaac had been through was the nobleman in front of him.
This man, obsessed with authority, had ruined, trampled, and smashed everything in the life of the real Isaac, a lower class man.
That’s right, Isaac monologued quietly.
It was only then that Isaac was able to fully understand the family history of his body’s original owner.
“But you can rest assured. Your life will be put to good use, unlike your father’s. If you were born as garbage and served as the foundation for me, what would be so valuable?”
Adrian smiles. Dark magic rose from his right eye.
Originally, that eye was not functioning properly because it had received a deep burn in the past. But now it was fine.
The spirit’s Kalgart can give strength to rotten parts. He planted dark magic in Adrian’s right eye.
Adrian explained to the mansion that he had been fortunately healed by a powerful cleric, and few people trembled knowing the truth.
Kuuu, several ghastly pillars of thorns made of dark magic sprang up from behind Adrian.
Adrian’s dark magic encroached on the air.
“… … ?”
however… Isaac was still relaxed. There seems to be no excitement whatsoever.
Adrian frowned. I had spouted the truth expecting to see Isaac fall into despair and panic. It was a disappointing reaction.
Am I shocked and not feeling reality?
When Adrian had such a question, Isaac took off his glasses and opened his mouth.
“Baron Lopenheim.”
At least until he caught the evil spirit, he had no intention of interfering in complicated family matters.
So Isaac was really fortunate.
Because this guy intervened in this journey.
“Are the barriers strong?”
“what?”
A gentle pale blue coolness flowed from Isaac’s body.
The moment he witnessed the coldness that began to froze the surroundings, Adrian’s eyes could not help but widen.
It wasn’t the cold air emitted by ordinary ice magicians. That high-density coldness was of a kind Adrian had never seen before.
The energy of [Ice Emperor]. Isaac decided to show his dominance in order to pressure Adrian. A glimpse of anger also played a role.
Enormous mana came down like strong pressure.
It was Adrian who instinctively felt fear.
In an instant, a light blue magic circle unfolded behind Isaac, and ice magic was condensed in front of him.
Adrian hurriedly stretched out a large number of awls made of dark magic.
Kwaaa!!!
A blue light flashed and a roar rang out.
5-star ice elemental magic [Freeze Explosion]. The process of Isaac condensing and exploding mana has changed from a few seconds at first to a blink of an eye now.
The blast of cold air that came in an instant drove away the dark awl, shattered the outer wall of the building, and stretched out a sharp block of ice with fierce force.
It happened in the blink of an eye.
The huge block of ice that stretched out pierced Adrian’s body and settled beyond the collapsed outer wall.
“Oops… !”
Adrian’s mouth poured blood like a waterfall.
It took several seconds for his clouded judgment to return to normal. Before long, he realized that he had been stabbed on the tip of a sharp block of ice, leaving a large hole in his torso.
The cryogenic cold penetrated to the bones. The pain beyond imagining hit me.
Adrian’s body, which had been hit by an explosion of cold air, was severely bruised. Extreme cold took over his body.
Adrian held his breath.
Dark magic tried to keep Adrian alive. Because of that, he couldn’t die and had to feel terrible pain without rest.
“How did this happen… ?”
The power of darkness, which made me feel like I could surpass anything, even made me feel omnipotent, was swallowed up in vain.
Isaac and Adrian. There was a huge skill gap between the two. Adrian couldn’t believe it.
chin.
Isaac climbed onto the spiky block of ice and trudged away.
Beneath the gloomy crescent moon. Isaac approaches Adrian, who is dangling from the ice block, and looks down at him.
The night wind caressed Isaac’s blue-silver hair and skin. Adrian looked at Isaac with a shocked face.
“Let’s ask one.”
Isaac asked coldly.
“Karlgart, where are you?”
Adrian’s eyes trembled.
The disparate light blue aura spread by Isaac. enormous mana. Incredible strength.
and… Even after seeing him asking where Kalgart was, he couldn’t help but recognize Isaac’s true identity.
“no way… , you guys… ?”
The title ‘Ice’ filled Adrian’s head.
It was difficult to understand, but the scene in front of me was so clear that I couldn’t deny it.
In Adrian’s memory, Isaac was a worthless being who had no talent and was useless.
So I couldn’t believe the scene in front of my eyes, but I gradually came to understand it after thinking rationally.
Unless he became an archmage who had been hiding his power until now, he wouldn’t have reached this level in just a few years.
Adrian judged. Bingje never wins. For he is a walking calamity. Beyond the unwinnable, it was as if this land was in danger of being destroyed.
The precious people of such a Wonwang… he was trampled The King of Won has become the object of resentment.
That fact gnawed away at Adrian’s reason like a rat.
There was a rough knock on the living room door. However, the door blocked by the barrier of darkness did not open easily.
Isaac squatted down and put his right hand in front of Adrian’s left arm. Ice magic was condensed in front of that right hand, and a light blue magic circle unfolded.
Adrian was terrified and said, “Now, wait a minute… !” he shouted urgently.
Kwaaa!!
“Quaaagh!!!”
A feeble [Freeze Explosion] hit Adrian’s left arm without mercy.
Adrian closed his eyes tightly and let out a scream. He soon caught his breath again.
His left arm was distorted, but no blood flowed. It was because the flesh was torn and the torn part was frozen and the bleeding was forcibly stopped.
The dark magic that tried to regenerate Adrian’s body was powerless in front of Isaac’s solid ice.
Adrian’s distorted face no longer showed the dignity of an aristocrat.
“I will ask you again.”
Isaac asked in a voice as cold as ice.
“Karlgart, where are you?”
Isaac had something on his back. The compulsion to overcome evil spirits has always weighed on him.
So, if it’s clear that the person you have to face on this journey to defeat the evil spirit has even set its foot on malice.
Isaac, who had already withstood the intense pressure, had nothing to hesitate about.
The knights who resided here all at once ran out into the garden. They looked at Adrian impaled on a block of ice and were horrified.
“That, that… !”
Adrian was quick to respond. The act of revealing the location of Kalgart would also lead this land to catastrophe.
Kwaaa!!
“aaa!!!”
The [Freeze Explosion] hit Adrian’s right arm as well.
“Answer?”
“Please stop… , now please stop… !”
Kwaaa!!
“Quaaagh!!”
Isaac used [Freeze Blast] again to disfigure Adrian’s right leg.
In the garden, the knights fired their weapons at Isaac. The wizard intercepted with elemental magic. However, Alice blocked all of those attacks by using telekinesis.
Isaac’s gaze was still fixed on Adrian.
“say.”
Isaac glared at Adrian up close. It was a firm yet cynical voice.
When Adrian was consumed by pain and unable to answer, [Freeze Blast] was cast on his remaining leg.
Kwaaa!!
Isaac snatched Adrian’s screaming head.
In the future, the limbs will not function properly. Adrian collapsed.
In the end, Adrian gritted his teeth and endured the intense pain, pouring out tears.
“Sorry, I’ll tell you… , please stop now. please… .”
confessed everything
