Episode 46 – Second Request

#One

The club room after Manus left.

In the silence of the room, Cale pondered what Manus had said.

– He said he had never met such a relationship.

Then what about them?

Am I still not qualified for such a relationship?

Power entered the hand holding the black skirt.

“A senior is also a senior. I thought we’d gotten a little closer… … .”

“I-I didn’t mean it, didn’t I?”

Anais also crossed her arms and expressed her dissatisfaction with a pouty expression.

She didn’t even care about Melanie’s packaging.

This time the arrow returned to Alano.

“senior. isn’t it? Going alone every day… … Could it be because of that? Aren’t we recognizing them as colleagues yet?”

“It won’t happen.”

Alano calmly responded to Anais’ grumbling.

She could vaguely understand what Manus was saying.

Personality as a child and personality now.

Knowing the difference between the two, she tried to infer the experiences of countless times apart.

Words and actions are the product of a person’s life, character, and experience.

The reason why a good person became indifferent was probably because of such experiences.

“Manus is right, Cale. The world is really hard to make someone you can trust. sometimes… … Because someone very close to you could betray you.”

“We will never betray you.”

Anais responded with glowing eyes.

Seeing how strong his fists were, he seemed quite resentful.

Alano was also waiting for the day to be recognized by him.

what does he want

“Don’t change that heart, keep it. all of you.”

“Sure. Even though he’s a bit picky and sometimes unlucky, he’s always there for us. Do you understand that you are not trustworthy yet? It means you should try harder. Because we’re kids-“

It was Pearson who spoke the right words for the first time in a while.

Anais could only sigh and nod.

When Manus from far away looks at them, they must still feel like immature children.

I mean, don’t fall into arrogance just because you have a little bit of power.

Sitting down, she asked Cale.

“What do you think? huh?”

“-I have to work harder.”

“He is always positive.”

Cale’s eyes flashed.

longing for something.

It was the will to be acknowledged by Manus.

Everyone, including Anais, felt her will.

Alano smiled and encouraged them.

Until you stand by his side, you are the one who has to lead them.

“Let’s all do our best. Manus is not a god. There will be a time when he will be able to do it too. When… … We will have to stay by your side.”

“… … that’s right.”

Anais, Cale, Pearson and Melanie all nodded.

Night of the Dead.

The day when a disaster almost happened.

Manus did not appear until the decisive moment.

He must not be the type to miss such a moment, but what was he doing to show up late?

Suddenly, Melanie revealed her curiosity.

“Yeah, but-. that day… … Where was your senior?”

“I don’t know anything about that… … Could it be that something was busy?”

Alano was curious as well, so I added my curiosity to the question.

Even a few seconds late could have led to a major accident.

If we had been together from the beginning, there wouldn’t have been that chewy feeling.

-You said that the shadow was targeting you.

Perhaps, he could have protected them from a greater threat.

“Perhaps he deliberately led to such a situation. It was like that.”

“-I wouldn’t have done that on purpose.”

Cale said softly.

Manus always asks them to become stronger, but he didn’t deliberately push them to death.

Cale knew that better than anyone else.

However, Anais was gradually getting dissatisfaction.

Caesar is obviously great.

It was a level she could never catch up to now.

‘I also want to actively help… … .’

I wanted to walk by your side, but he always walked one step ahead.

A position to protect themselves, not to leave their backs.

Anais didn’t like that.

“When are you going to look after us properly?”

No one answered her words.

Anais thought she should find out more.

That night, where and what was Manus doing?

‘If that day… … If it really drove us to death.’

Then what should I do?

Then what if someone dies-!

In Anais’s heart, little by little doubts sprouted.

It was a small seed that even he himself did not know.

#2

Once a request was received from the academy, the person in charge of the request could apply for reassignment.

It was possible only if it was an extension of the request, and attendance was recognized when performing the mission.

smart-.

Manus, who was enjoying reading in the dormitory, lost his concentration.

Aden’s voice was heard as he closed the thick book.

“This is Aden. I have news.”

“-I’m leaving.”

When I opened the door, a black-haired maid held out a letter.

It was a familiar scene.

The scene I saw on the first day I came here overlapped.

A letter clearly stamped with Caesar’s seal.

Aden handed over the letter and added.

“The family sent a formal request. Perhaps there was an afterthought from the previous evaluation.”

Manus nodded and entered the room.

I opened the seal and looked at the letter.

The sender wasn’t Laves, the owner of the house.

A letter from his sister, Invidea.

‘I must go. Let’s see.’

For the time being, there was no schedule other than climbing the tower.

There is still more time left for Demonium to come out.

The problem is that the survival evaluation and timing overlap.

“If it’s not urgent, I’ll have to postpone it to next week.”

If you look at the contents of the letter, it only said to come when you have time.

It’s not like it’s urgent right now.

For now, it was time to focus on survival missions.

If we can draw out Alano’s growth again there, we will be able to deal with the Church of Dire with ease.

“I will write a reply.”

Manus asked the maid who had followed him to bring some stationery and an envelope, then took up his fountain pen.

how should i reply

Tok-tok, the pen tip that tapped the paper for a moment moved gracefully.

It’s blunt, but the style that the other person can fully understand.

The memory of Manus, who had written reports several times, came back.

His pen put an end to it, and he handed the letter to the maid who was waiting in front of him.

“Can I send it to your family?”

“Please.”

The maid bowed her head deeply.

She went out and suddenly stopped.

Originally, maids were not allowed to ask personal questions to students.

However, the sudden incident left the maids with big questions.

same maid.

It is also the story of the head maid who led them.

I heard that Manus was away for a long time on the night of the dead.

“Confucius.”

“what.”

“How did the head maid die?”

Manus shook his head.

Best not to tell anyone.

The fewer people who knew, the better.

The maid hesitated, then lowered her head.

I couldn’t ask for more.

Caesar’s people don’t have much patience.

“sorry. I’m talking about something… … .”

Perhaps it was the maid who had heard of Manus’ cruel daily life, and she could be seen shivering.

Contrary to her fears, however, Manus just waved his hand and turned his gaze back to the book.

After becoming a sophomore, I heard that people completely changed, but the rumors seem to be true.

Secretly letting out a sigh of relief, she just disappeared.

After sending the letter, Manus quietly indulged in knowledge, not paying attention to the disappearing maid.

‘5th class. It’s true that even Caesar’s talent is daunting.’

With only simple calculations, he had to squeeze mana into each of the 512 line segments, and he had to memorize the shapes applied to each spell.

Depending on how much mana goes into which line segment, the form of magic appears differently.

In a way, it was a much deeper learning than what he learned in middle school and high school.

Still, wouldn’t it be fun to do something you like?

Students who hate memorizing mathematical formulas and historical years, memorize game skills, mechanics, principles, ranges, and everything else.

‘This is similar. Because it was a game that was the joy of life for me.’

When I think of that time, I feel sad.

The feeling of lying in a comfortable hotel far away, fiddling with your phone.

The feeling of being immersed in memories while looking through old photo albums.

-Suddenly, Manus asked, is that normal? came to think about

Been here only a few weeks.

In a period of less than a month, can it be so far away?

“… … Is it the effect of skill?”

The essence hasn’t changed, but I feel like I’m merging little by little.

Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com

Just in case, I checked the skill window.

The words [Kiasar’s mindset] were clearly visible.

mental attitude.

Yes, it is a matter of mindset.

Surprisingly, the answer came quickly.

“I look forward to it.”

man.

The heart of Caesar overlaid on it.

What kind of changes will the other hearts that will be added again give him.

What direction will you grow?

‘It’ll be fun.’

Various minds will stick to the tall soul and create a personality called Manus.

Instead of having multiple personalities, you will have great tolerance and the flexibility to deal with any situation.

Manus’s intuition and Caesar’s brilliant intellect said so.

Manus smiled and continued to indulge in knowledge.

He wasn’t finished yet.

#3

You won’t find luxury like this anywhere in Korea or anywhere else in the world.

The ceiling was lined with huge paintings embroidered with diamonds, rubies, sapphires, and opals.

Even if they sold only one jewel over there, they were large and beautiful jewels that the family could live on for dozens of years.

what are the pillars

The beams, entirely carved out of huge adamantine, supported a long hallway, huge door and window frames, and a dome-shaped roof.

The glittering decorations, the chandeliers dyed in golden light, illuminated the interior brightly just by reflecting the moonlight.

“-That is all.”

“okay. Good job. It’s late. Let’s go and get some rest.”

“Good luck, Your Majesty.”

“OK-.”

languid face.

Dark reddish brown hair that fell neatly without a single gray hair.

I stared blankly out the window and frowned slightly between my brows, which were now slightly wrinkled.

“Did you live in that chaos? In addition, you have gained a faithful subordinate.”

he scratched his head.

Caesar.

I rolled the name in my mouth.

great wizard.

One of the three pillars holding up the Empire.

In order to control enemies from within and without, he created the crystallization of his father, his ancestors, and the imperial family.

-I thought that the flower would never bloom again except for one’s distant relative and best friend.

“It would be perfect as a gift for a distant nephew.”

he chuckled.

The pink-haired assassin.

He was a friend who had a lot of affection and a weak heart, but he faithfully fulfilled his duties.

-Keller Bradley, the owner of the empire and the owner of the vast imperial palace, also knew.

veronica.

At least Aden wasn’t one to be chained here for a long time.

Yes, it would be easier to stay with Caesar rather than the imperial family.

Recalling the contents of the report, he smiled quietly.

Veronica would have failed this mission in the first place.

If she killed it, that would have been the only vessel Manus had with Veronica.

“Is this Harrison now? Caesar passed, but… … I don’t know about Harrison. It will be fun to watch.”

Yet nothing shined as brightly as he wanted.

Not to mention his best friend, Laves.

If one day, the whole world is dyed in darkness-.

You will need a more brilliant existence.
