Episode 160

[Broken winter snow]

: The heart of the dragon that tried to freeze the world.

A faint chill hangs over me. I don’t feel any special power.

“Was it okay to write like this?”

“I don’t have anywhere to put it, what? I’m not going to see that fairy again.”

“I guess so.”

I gave her a dragon heart anyway, but if it was used to save my life, I wouldn’t have much complaint.

I accepted Auril’s winter snow.

Originally, it was used in the last episode, the battle with Ainim, but now it is used to freeze the Sky Centipede.

The winter snow, with only the bottom left like a broken egg, was only slightly cool to the touch with bare hands.

“Anyway, I was lucky that Euril came along. I thought I would be bored all day because I couldn’t go out.”

“What is luck? I’m here half the day.”

“… … Ahaha. It’s embarrassing.”

“I have nothing to do here anyway. Everyone looks busy.”

“It means I’m doing a lot of harm.”

Ainim must have taken over not only the refugees I was in charge of, but also the supplementary classes for the students.

Hira must have taken over what I had been told. There must have been separate documents such as the supply of lasers and preparations for exchange with Sorus, as well as the ramen chain business.

“I feel a little sorry for them.”

Suddenly, Euril brushed the side of her hair and cast her gaze out the wide window.

“Do you have anything to be sorry for?”

“I, who have nothing to do the most, are watching you the most.”

“As a result, it was Auril who saved me. How did you bring Auril from Mash when you suddenly disappeared without any sign?”

Since there is a precedent, it is not difficult to guess the cause, but I was curious about the process.

Anyway, it was too tight.

How could he have brought Euril from Mash’s castle within ten days or so?

“I wasn’t in Mashu from the beginning.”

“Eh? Then where did you meet?”

“At Wooden Hill.”

While Mash was recovering national power, Keljian had plans to establish a magic academy.

He must have thought that if Euril came to Summer Turge himself and asked for it, he would not return empty-handed.

Thanks to that, Euril was already in Rongrult’s Tipol Territory, and was able to move by changing the imperial wagon.

“Did you go there again?”

“The beer I drank then was delicious, but I couldn’t even drink it and was brought here.”

“That’s true, but it’s delicious to eat in winter… … . no.”

It doesn’t really matter.

In general pubs, you can only find cold beer in winter.

All freezers and refrigerators in Thermage are powered by magic, so several wizards constantly supply and maintain magic every day.

You can’t make up for that with a decent tavern income, so cold beer was a pleasure only allowed in winter.

Auril, who was frozen all year round, had a small advantage in that respect.

“When everything is fine, go with me. It’s far away, so it’s near the islands.”

“Ah, Euril gets tired after just one drink.”

I wondered where anyone would get drunk after drinking just one beer.

But it seems like that is often the case with first-time drinkers.

At that time, Euril’s usual short words became shorter, his tongue twisted, and anyway, he had a cute side that was different from usual.

Euril replied proudly.

“So I practiced.”

“Practice?”

“If it’s Wooden Hill, it’s not far from Mashu, so I think you like it. But when I drink alone, I just write.”

oh my gosh, princess.

Does that mean you tried to increase your drinking by ordering your own?

In the letter, Kelzian said that he stopped drinking after Auril returned, so he really drank alone.

I said with a smile.

“Originally, drinking alone only tastes bitter.”

“Three cups is fine now.”

“It is just right. Yes, then.”

It’s a story when the opportunity comes, but it’s probably not too far off.

Now I need to stray a little on schedule. My reputation in the world is so bloated that progress is slow.

‘At best, I stole it and left it.’

How careful are you?

It might still be Tane’s power or Tania’s power. Either way it doesn’t matter

The name Rocktrin must be brought down.

Since the winter snow, which was a key item needed against Ainim, was consumed, this is really the only way left.

“Is Euril done?”

“Professors are making proposals. It will be finished in two days.”

“I’ve come a long way, but it’s a pity that I only got to see you for two days.”

“Someone said he’d come right back.”

“ah.”

Euril said as if it were natural and sat back a little from the bed.

I heard a sound from outside, and the door opened while I was tidying up my disheveled hair.

“Wow!”

“Rox!”

“Sir Rockstrin!”

The three people who rushed in were, of course, technical staff. It’s time for one morning class to end. Miro seems to have delivered the news first.

Everyone seems to have a lot to say, but I opened my mouth first.

“Well, as always, I’m fine this time too.”

“I don’t call a person who has passed out for five days unharmed.”

“That’s right.”

I laughed awkwardly at Baeller’s point.

In fact, it’s hard to see that it’s fine even now. The only good thing about this body was that it had good ears.

Auril noticed in advance, but I didn’t hear much before the door opened.

The tongue hasn’t returned to normal yet, but this time, is it a problem with the ears? I want something that is not snow.

“Did you know that Sir has officially become a 7-star wizard?”

“Is that acceptable?”

“The people around were all scholars of the Magic Society, so once was enough. 7 stars at 18 is unprecedented in history.”

“I can’t do it again. It seems like you’re giving it too much air.”

Even if it was not in the existing magic system, the bonus point was too generous. I couldn’t even give a serious blow to the body of the sky centipede.

If you put it like that, Aulil is much better, but it seems that Aulil decided that the influence of the winter snow was greater than her own ability.

“… … Are you feeling better?”

I thought it would pour out, but unexpectedly, the child is quiet. Hira spoke slowly.

“It’ll be better if you get some rest. He said he was suffering because of me.”

“If you know, you’ll get well soon. I might secretly steal one or two ledgers.”

“Then I can’t help it. I will do what I can even here.”

Even if you don’t have to sit down at your desk, you can do simple review and approval tasks. It’s a different matter that someone has to bring it here every time.

“Your Highness is busy too, right? Our class has a lot of unique questions.”

“Yes.”

Ai-nim was tired, but he had a dazed expression. Is it because it is still morning?

It’s understandable that you haven’t slept as much as you’d like these days.

“Anyway, as you can see, I’m fine, so I’ll be lying down today, so let’s all go to work.”

All of them are busy guys with a lot of work to do.

Although it is like issuing a congratulatory order to those who came because they were worried, this is better.

Even after waking up, the dizziness did not subside easily, so I could not continue laughing. I think I can hear the details of the situation when only the two of Hira and I are left.

Even after that, Ramyun, Jerome, and Nasha, who heard the news belatedly, returned with their faces reflected once in a while.

It seems that the purpose was to look around because I was curious about what the child’s room on the top floor of the Tower of Truth looked like, rather than visiting my hospitality.

“Ugh… … .”

When the time came when no one came to visit anymore, I lost my strength and threw my head back.

“Why are you pretending to be normal?”

“Because it’s better than pretending to be sick.”

He gripped his throbbing head and held it tight. I guess I have to force myself to sleep.

“I heard it from Meiji, who was lying next to you.”

“It’s Derek.”

“Because you are half a fairy, you will die if you continue to use your magic.”

“Summary is simple.”

That’s not wrong.

It doesn’t depend on the conditions. Even now, I’m alive even after using the magic of 7 stars.

Euril said, tapping the back of my arm with the tip of a cold finger.

“Just where… … . far away. Can’t we go?”

It was a voice full of sorrow.

“Where are you going?”

“I don’t know. I think that’s the easiest way. You don’t want to die.”

“That’s why you can’t die.”

“You can live without worrying about anyone. this happens anytime Because you always think of others before yourself… … .”

At that moment, Euril suddenly turned her head back. There must have been some commotion outside.

Was there anyone left to come?

I don’t think my friendships are that great.

“… … I can’t hear you!”

“It is an imperial order, Your Highness. We can’t help it either.”

“Do you think Obama would have issued an edict like that? How much I love Rocks!”

“I was just given an order.”

Unlike a moment ago, the voice of the child who was furious was faintly audible.

There are a lot of clattering footsteps. It’s not the students’ thing, and it’s not the verbal sound of female professors.

Unfamiliar and heavy faces entered the door. The heavy armor made a creaking sound.

“Lord Rockstryn, you must go to the Imperial Court immediately.”

“okay?”

“I will serve you with the utmost respect.”

Because I complained a little bit earlier.

It is also a standard pattern that a tiger will come if you say it, and it is also a standard pattern to come in when you wake up and are out of your mind after just passing out.

“I think that makes sense! It’s not me!”

“I apologize, Your Highness. We cannot judge… … .”

The scuffle between the child and the knight still continued.

The imperial family must have issued an order to arrest me, and Ai-sama couldn’t wait to see me, who just woke up from fainting, being forcibly taken.

“Just lie down, Rocks! If I say I kicked you out, you’ll be fine.”

“no. That would put them in a difficult position.”

“Rox!”

“I will return after a brief investigation. I can’t believe I’ll treat Aindarok in a careless way.”

“… … .”

The child gritted his teeth and glared at me. There are many things that can be inferred just from being forcibly called to the imperial family at this time. If you were a child, you would have noticed right away.

The knight next to him persuaded the horny child.

“Even the order itself wasn’t immediate detention, so something like what Your Highness thinks won’t happen. I will definitely return the same day.”

“Did you hear?”

“… … I remember all your faces.”

Only then did Ai-nim let go of the knight’s arm.

When he said he remembered the face, the knight shook his shoulders and touched his cheek. He’s obviously wearing a helmet.

“Please give me some support.”

“All right.”

I got up from my seat and entrusted my shoulder to the knight. It was also difficult to walk.

“What about the title?”

At that time, Euril, who was sitting still and watching the situation, asked.

There was no way that the imperial family’s guardian knight would not recognize Mashu’s royal family, so the knight responded politely.

“It is an attempted assassination of the imperial family.”
