70 – Contrast (2)

“miss?”

Chunk-.

I struggled as hard as I could while lying on the bed in the hospital room, but it was just a silent struggle.

‘No matter how you look at it, it’s an ordinary restraining tool.’

He raised his mana and gave strength to his arms and legs, but no matter what kind of artifact it was, the power didn’t work.

Whether the restraints were artifacts, or the chains, or whether this bed was an artifact, everything in the world began to question.

As I roll my eyes and examine the inside of the hospital room, I hear Lady Catherine’s low pitched voice.

“What are you looking for?”

“Magic Control Artifact. Are you in this hospital room?”

“Right. Why are you curious about that?”

“Find that and you’ll be able to solve this.”

A demonic sword lying in the corner of the hospital room.

If I move my magic with my intentions and transfer it to the demonic sword, I can break the artifact with the principle of a double sword.

However, no matter how much I looked, I couldn’t find anything in the form of an artifact.

“It won’t be useful to look for it like that.”

“What is that… … .”

“Because I knew you would act like that as soon as you wake up, and I installed an additional artifact that erases the wave of magic nearby in advance.”

“… … .”

“By the way, there is more than one set of Magic Control Artifact and Wavelength Removal Artifact.”

“… … uh?”

“Because I brought all of my father’s two artifacts from my home. You should find at least ten sets.”

“… … .”

I’m at a loss for words.

An artifact that is expensive enough to buy a nearby mansion with just one.

If you combine them into two and bring ten sets, you get twenty.

It was said that artifacts that could easily be purchased for a tolerable territory were hidden in this hospital room.

“I didn’t know you could predict my actions.”

“If I hadn’t been confused, you wouldn’t have been hurt.”

“It didn’t hurt too much.”

“You didn’t feel any pain after shedding blood like that and being stabbed?”

“If you’re saying that to reassure me, please stop.”

“It only hurts my heart more.”

She trembled as if she was really in pain, clutching at her own chest.

Lady Catherine bit her lower lip, perhaps recalling the scene the day before when I was bleeding and gasping for breath.

‘I can’t show the status window… … .’

Overrank’s self-healing characteristics,

And the pain relieving properties of SS ranks.

Because of the combination of the two, it really rarely hurts.

The pain of ten needles at most?

It was nothing compared to the fiery pain I felt before I acquired the Pain Relief attribute.

I protested with a feeling of injustice.

“No, lady. Are you sure I’m not sick?”

“Why, why are you even doing that?”

“So… … .”

“It didn’t have to be you! It could have been left to other people!”

Finally, a woman with her fists clenched tightly and tears welling up.

Her long silver hair falls onto the bed.

Waves crashed on the lake in Catherine’s blue eyes.

“Please think of my heart to see you in pain… … .”

“… … .”

I’ll be thrilled

‘This seems like an unanswerable question.’

In the ten years I spent with her, before I developed pain-relieving properties, all I could see was suffering when I was hurt.

Because in the past, it was really f*cking painful.

It has only been a few weeks since he acquired the pain relief attribute from a duel with Keshan, the sword master of the Five Princes faction.

From her point of view, of course, she can’t help but think that I’m lying.

It is also difficult to prove that it does not hurt at all.

If you laugh nonchalantly after being stabbed, you’ll think that you’re pretending not to be sick when you’re actually sick.

Truly a quandary.

“okay. I will fight carefully from now on.”

“Last night, he definitely told me he would come back unhurt.”

“that… … .”

I didn’t know that Prince Four and Prince Five really called the Grand Master.

“… … There were unavoidable circumstances.”

“I know.”

The princess of the duke came up to the bed in the hospital room where I was lying.

Then she lays down next to her and raises her thin, white hand to stroke her cheek.

“I heard that the other person was not someone else, but a foreign superman. Of course, I had no choice but to overdo it.”

“… … .”

“However… … Don’t try to embrace them all by yourself. Because no one can say anything about leaning on the people around you.”

In response to her sincere concern, I closed my mouth and met her eyes.

Moist eyes like those of a deer.

A chandelier hung from the ceiling gave Katherine’s crimson lips a shine.

Something strange atmosphere.

The hostess closed her eyes,

He moved his head slowly towards me.

“… … Huh.”

That moment,

A small exclamation in my ears.

“… … !”

Startled, Catherine’s head returned to its original position.

We turned our heads and cast our gaze towards the entrance of the hospital room where the voice came from.

“Oh, sorry. I must have interfered.”

“… … Commander of the Royal Guard?”

“The restraint play in the hospital room as soon as you wake up… … . Really, the boldness of young people these days is unpredictable. Hot hot hot!”

“… … .”

“I’ll be back in two hours after taking a moderate walk, so have a good time. then… … .”

“That, it’s not like that.”

Catherine quickly got out of bed.

However, the expression of the daughter of the duke, who was tidying up her messy outfit, was stained red like a ripe apple.

“No. Even if you enjoy it to your heart’s content… … .”

“Don’t be weird, come in.”

“Hmm. I’m sorry to disturb you, but… … Having said that, excuse me for a moment.”

The middle-aged man, who was about to turn his back, took a straight posture again.

The Guards Commander strides toward me and Catherine.

Chunk-.

As I tried to raise my upper body, I heard a familiar metal sound toward my eardrum.

‘ah. He was still in custody.’

I forgot for a moment.

“Knight Commander. Can you please loosen this restraint?”

“It doesn’t sound too difficult, but… … .”

“Absolutely not.”

The girl’s stubborn refusal.

In response to that firm will, the man continues his words with an incomprehensible look in his pupils.

“Why are you making such a shit-chewed face? If you are arrested by an unparalleled beauty like the princess of a duke, isn’t it normal to like it?”

“It’s overprotective, this. And there is no such thing as being restrained.”

“Well… … . Still, it seems appropriate to release the restraints, Lady Catherine.”

“… … Why?”

Her blue eyes darkened.

‘It’s too much.’

I never thought that a genius wizard called a future great wizard would have this side.

Surprised, the knight commander quickly took out the communication tool he had received from the emperor from his chest.

“His Majesty wants to talk to Sir Leon. No matter how much His Majesty says he cares for Sir Leon, isn’t it polite to communicate in such a restrained state?”

“Oh… … .”

“Knight Commander, you are my savior.”

“Give thanks to His Majesty. It seemed like he was worried about your safety all day long.”

I was a bit surprised by the answer.

Are you worried about the iron-blooded emperor?

‘Well, looking at how they spread it to me… … .’

This is a testament to how much talent is cared for.

It’s just that His Majesty the Emperor didn’t expect that his children would involve supermen from other empires and commit such a massive incident.

Probably no one in this world could have predicted it.

‘Not some kind of prophet.’

The commander of the Royal Guard urged Catherine.

“So, the princess of the duke. Set Sir Leon free.”

At the remark that hit the mark, the owner lady bit her lower lip again as if she couldn’t refute it.

‘That’s a bad habit.’

I wiggled my arms and legs, thinking I’d fix it later.

Click, click, click.

Catherine’s expression gradually darkened as the number of clicks increased.

Unable to hold on, she took out a golden key from the inside pocket of her dress.

The lady who freed the restraints on my wrist.

‘Looks like I’m finally going to live.’

She hesitated in front of the restraints on her ankle and opened her mouth.

“… … Will my ankle be okay?”

“?”

“When communicating… … You just need to show the upper body.”

“… … .”

“… … .”

Seeing those earnest eyes, the knight commander and I simultaneously made absurd expressions.

Despite our bewildered gaze, Katherine was unwilling to move.

“Stop talking nonsense.”

As I press with a silent look, the young lady loosens the restraints on her ankle with a downcast face.

ㅡ Iron grunt.

A body completely freed.

As soon as the mana flowed, I could feel where all the artifacts in the hospital room were hidden.

‘Now that I’m free, there’s no need to break it. The price is also expensive.’

I took the crystal ball from the commander of the Royal Guard and put some magic into it.

Then the light shimmered, and I began to see the solemn appearance of Emperor Richard, who was sitting on the throne and doing his business.

“Meet Your Majesty the Emperor.”

ㅡLooks like you’ve come to your senses.

“It’s thanks to His Majesty’s concern.”

—-There is no need to take such a formal example. For what caused you to fall was also Jim’s fault.

“What are you talking about? What’s wrong with Your Majesty? This is all the Four Princes… … No, it’s His Highness’s fault.”

—-There is no need to call her high. Before he was my child, he was a demon.

Emperor Richard seemed to want to make sure of this part.

It must be an expression of his will not to cover it up as his own child.

—-However, the fact that the Four Princes became demons, and not knowing that fact beforehand, was clearly the fault of the winemaker.

“I didn’t even know that the Four Princes were demons before fighting Duke Geoffrey.”

“So it seems that Your Majesty doesn’t need to blame himself that much.”

—-The fact that Jim made a mistake in educating his children does not change.

‘… … Was it a big shock?’

A mature man who stubbornly blames himself.

When I first saw you,

It was different from the dignified appearance.

A tired face.

Not one, but two princes united to do something that shouldn’t have happened. I probably couldn’t sleep well last night thinking about the post-processing.

‘It wouldn’t be good to drag this topic further.’

I turned around to lighten the mood.

“By the way, what happened to the foreigner doing Jeffrey or something?”

ㅡ… … I have something to say about that part.

Emperor Richard picked up a piece of paper that had been placed on the desk and placed it on the crystal ball.

“This… … .”

Soon, the word ‘interview request’ appeared clearly outside the screen.

towards me reading the papers,

Emperor Richard said.

—-The diplomats of the Dark Empire formally requested a meeting with you, Leon.
