I Became The Indolent Young Master Of The Academy

EP.132

9th line of defense.

Victoria, who had not yet wiped the blood from her sword, asked Rosalie.

“Is there anything wrong with Ruid?”

“yes. Lately, I seem to be spending my time napping again.”

Rosalie politely offered Victoria her handkerchief.

Victoria took the handkerchief with an indifferent expression, wiped the sword, and returned it.

After putting the sword in the scabbard, I asked Rosalie.

“What is the empire’s reaction?”

“We came to the fourth line of defense, but Irene took care of it.”

“All-out war cannot be avoided.”

“What do you plan to do?”

Victoria glanced at Rosalie.

“If you cross the line, you will be punished.”

“Is it war?”

“I will not go to extremes. However, the Duke of Windsor has been quiet for a long time, so it’s time to show it off.”

Rosalie’s expression hardened slightly.

“Is there some problem?”

Victoria’s eyebrows twitched.

“no.”

Rosalie bowed.

“Everything is as the head of the family wishes.”

“I will keep my promise.”

The highest level demon, a vampire.

Among the vampires, Rosalie and Ruby are purebloods called ‘true ancestors’.

There is only one reason why such incredible people fell under the control of humans.

Because of the contract.

The two vampires wanted to destroy Mine –

In return, Victoria wanted eternal loyalty to the Duke of Windsor.

The two reached an agreement and reached this point.

but-

“yes.”

‘The current head of the family is too cautious. With Windsor’s current strength, he could push back half of the northern monsters.’

That agreement was slowly cracking.

“Then let’s go.”

“okay. “Be very careful not to wake up Ruid.”

“yes.”

After bowing politely, Rosalie went down the wall of the 9th Defense Line.

The knights who had finished the battle were hanging out, and when they saw Rosalie, they all saluted. Rosalie quietly lowered her head and headed to a deserted place.

“Rosalie.”

Ruby wearing a maid uniform appeared from the shadows.

“Why did you lie?”

Ruby’s expression was frozen.

“Lude, you killed 5,000 people.”

Rosalie leaned against the wall with her arms crossed.

“Irene just ordered it. Because it’s not Ruid’s will.”

“It’s a breach of contract. “Rosalie.”

Rosalie said nothing.

“I am against it. Victoria Windsor is strong. “There is probably no human being stronger than him.”

Rosalie didn’t answer.

Ruby also walked away as if she wasn’t particularly expecting an answer.

“I don’t mean to betray Victoria Windsor.”

Ruby stopped walking.

“That’s what it sounds like to me.”

“it is not so. Just helping Irene Windsor for a little while. “I’ll go back when this is over.”

“Is that really Ruid’s corruption?”

Ruby shook her head.

“Rosalie. “You are mistaken.”

“….”

“Victoria Windsor’s feelings for Louis are more than just blood relations. If this is discovered, there will be no forgiveness. “You have to tell Victoria the truth.”

Ruby tried to walk again.

But then-

“I’m sorry, sister.”

Rosalie’s eyes turned red.

She tore off her maid uniform and small black wings appeared.

“I can’t let you go.”

Ruby bit her lip.

The real members Rosalie and Ruby.

They are twins, but Rosalie is gifted with strength and Ruby is gifted with other aspects.

To begin with, Rosalie was the strongest vampire among her blood relatives.

Ruby wasn’t the type to take on reckless challenges.

Instead, I looked up at the sky.

The sun is invisible to a vampire’s eyes. Because it was abandoned by God.

But you can guess. You can’t see the sunlight because it’s covered in black.

Ruby stretched out her hand towards the sun. I want to see that someday. Because I was full of that desire.

This is also the same. Recently, Ruby had been wondering if she was trying to have something she couldn’t have.

“Believing Irene is-”

Ruby said in a low voice.

“Not a good choice.”

**

“I want to go see the defense line. “I’m also curious to know if you’re doing well, Ame.”

Ruid kept pestering Irene.

But Irene was adamant. He said with his usual smiling face.

“no.”

“…why?”

“Give Amelia time to grow, too.”

“I’m just going to look around.”

“Just Louis going will be a great help to Amelia.”

“….”

In short, the logic was this.

Ruid sighed and drank orange juice through a straw.

“The empire must be in chaos by now.”

“Do you regret it?”

“no.”

Ruid said coldly.

“I don’t regret trying to mess up my house.”

“It’s amazing. “Louis.”

Irene’s face turned red. He spread his arms and nodded his head.

Ruid was disgusted and took a step back.

Recently, Irene’s image has changed a bit.

Although she was originally an idiot, she was still a kind older sister.

Now it’s just scary.

‘…But this is also affection, right?’

Ruid hugged Irene with an uncomfortable expression. A nice smell filled my nose.

“Does Louis know the first emperor’s coffin?”

Irene naturally spoke while stroking Ruid’s head.

“…The first emperor’s coffin?”

“It’s amazing. “It is the most valuable thing the empire has.”

‘Of course I know.’

The coffin of the first emperor.

One of the three great wonders that exist in this world.

If it falls into the hands of a warlock, it can resurrect Delrin, the greatest archmage in human history.

“I know. “I’m not sure.”

“According to legend, if the current emperor wears that crown, the first emperor can be resurrected.”

“…uh?”

Ruid’s eyes widened as he heard this story for the first time.

“You can be resurrected?”

“okay. Are you interested?”

The corners of Irene’s mouth slowly rose.

“little. “That’s because my goal is to save the first emperor.”

I wanted to at least ask.

If they were possessed, they would come and go quietly. Why did they try to introduce that clumsy democracy?

“It is said that there is a dragon’s magic on that crown. Normally, just by keeping it, it blesses the land, but its original purpose is….”

“What is the original purpose?”

Luid’s eyes sparkled.

I hadn’t even thought about it, but I thought that maybe if I used it, my goal would be achieved faster.

But Irene did not continue speaking.

He smiled a little cruelly and put down Ruid in his arms.

Then he stood up and drew his sword just a little.

“sister?”

As Ruid spoke curiously, Irene slowly closed her eyes.

“It’s best not to go near that child. “It may seem defenseless, but your sword won’t be able to cut off a single head.”

As soon as Irene finished speaking-

Kagagak!

Ruid could hear the sound of metal grinding behind him.

When I looked back, I saw a foolish person trying to push a sword through the transparent barrier.

From what anyone could see, it was a man wearing a black mask with the words ‘I am an assassin’ written on it.

Geek!

The blue sword trembled. However, the barrier did not have even the slightest scratch.

‘I wondered why I couldn’t sense any presence, but I guess it was because I didn’t need to.’

Ruid blinked.

It feels like ants are climbing up your shoes.

Too weak.

“What are you doing?”

“shit.”

The assassin took a big jump backwards. Ruid spoke in a loud voice.

“Why didn’t you help me?”

“What do you mean?”

Even though there was a barrier, I still felt bad.

Because those scary cutlery are aimed at you. So it was just a little bit of complaining.

But Irene just smiled strangely. Ruid looked up at Irene with a dissatisfied expression.

Irene shook her head.

“Oh my gosh, Louis.”

And he nodded towards the direction the assassin had retreated from.

“I already killed him.”

“…!”

Luid’s eyes widened.

Where I followed Irene’s gaze –

Because the assassin died with his lower body and upper body separated.

**

“Holy shit!”

Clink!

Lucius slapped the glass on the table with his arm with an angry face.

A glass of red wine dripped onto his sleeve.

Michael, who was reporting, swallowed dry saliva.

“Is that really true? “Are you really saying that the Earl of Queensberry is dead?”

“…yes. “A letter has arrived.”

“letter? “Tell me in detail.”

Lucius wasn’t the type to get angry easily. But it was different now. My whole body was shaking so much that I couldn’t control it.

“that is-”

Michael could not help but hesitate.

However, it is impossible to refuse the emperor’s orders.

“The face on the cloth…”

“Are you sure it’s the Earl of Queensbury?”

“…yes. I checked it myself. The cause of death is determined to be decapitation with a sword.”

Lucius bit his lip until it bled.

“Irene Windsor—!”

bang!

I hit the table hard with my fist. The table, which was at least 300 years old, was smashed and scattered.

Nevertheless, Lucius’ anger did not cool down.

“I tried to resolve it amicably, but how can you be so cruel! “How much of the remaining troops are there?”

“…does not exist.”

“What what?”

“It is annihilation.”

Lucius felt like his entire body was losing strength. I wiped my forehead.

“5,000 troops. Does that mean that an army of 5,000 knights who are not soldiers will be annihilated?”

“yes. … However, it is believed that the Knights of the Garter are still safe.”

“can not believe it.”

Lucius’ pupils trembled slightly.

5,000 troops is a formidable number.

Even the Earl of Queensberry was a margrave.

They were a family at the forefront of protecting the empire from barbarians.

From the worry of how to fill that empty position, thoughts were tangled as to whether or not we really had to risk an all-out war with the Duke of Windsor.

“Fuck shit.”

Lucius grabbed his head. My head was pounding.

‘Was it such a wrong choice? To the extent of losing 5,000 troops overnight?’

This was already nothing short of a nightmare for Lucius.

If it were any other noble, the damage would have been less.

After all, the Earl of Queensberry was a margrave.

It is not easy to fill that gap.

The current empire is the result of the lords who have established themselves in their positions doing their best.

‘Can’t I become Hyun Hwang?’

Would the results have been different if it had been the first emperor instead of him?

No, Lucius was sure that it was like that.

All of this came from my own shortcomings.

“I am…a foolish emperor.”

Lucius looked at Michael with dark eyes.

“I need to use that.”
