Chapter 113 – Chapter 113 ― Cat Help (5)
Episode 113 ― Borrowing Cat’s Hand (5)
“This…”
The ‘structure’ that did not enter the prepared laboratory and was put out in the front yard for now.
I didn’t have to ask what.
It was something Roan knew well.
It’s just that the size was so big that I couldn’t imagine.
“Aha☆ Your Majesty. What are you doing early in the morning?”
Roan looked at the Count with impassive eyes.
“I heard reports that you brought something amazing from such an early hour.”
“Oh. Have you already received the report!”
The Count proudly presented his structure to the Emperor.
“This is my exclusive resting place. With this, there is no problem even if you take care of lodging in the lab.”
“… The bedroom was prepared separately. Wouldn’t it be better to rest properly there?”
“When I stay in the lab, there is no day or night.”
“Are you thinking of going back to DOS? Is it okay for Jim not to worry about the management of Northern Baekryung?”
After being baptized by Roan’s question, Amhangbaek giggled as if he was confident.
“Don’t worry, Your Majesty. The officials under my command are competent. It’s because I’ve already managed Bukbaekryeong well even without me for a while. You can go back if need be!”
“…”
Roan just looked at the Count with sharp eyes.
Well, the great lords have been away for quite some time due to the war until recently.
Officials of Northern Baekryung carried inbound goods from Arteala without any problems despite the tight schedule.
I heard that the supplies and food delivered to each city were distributed without any problems.
I feel like their competence stems from their subtly indifferent but cruel boss…
In any case, he is a count who has been praised for being ‘skilled in personnel management’ by Schikwiena.
I don’t have to worry.
Okay. This feeling,
Rather than worry…
… It’s an annoyance that comes out of being ridiculous.
“Anyway, I…”
Roan, who had almost called it a ‘cat tower’ without even realizing it, changed the word.
Maybe people here don’t know what a cat tower is.
“… Your resting place… It’s a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of . Isn’t it too big?”
“It seems so. I think you should downsize.”
Rubbing his lips with his finger for a moment, the Count was lost in thought.
The cat tower in front of Roan,
It was so huge that Amangbaek, a feline beast, could fit in and lie down or sit.
About 6 meters tall,
It seems to be about 6 meters in width and height
Feels like a giant jungle gym.
As if calculating something, the Count’s fingers, which had been muttering while averting his eyes little by little, stretched out toward the giant cat tower.
There was no particularly great casting.
Just like other magics in this world.
It is only necessary that his will be expressed in clear form.
In the case of the Count, it was a brief remark.
“Transform.”
And the cat tower began to transform!
It was the outer shell of the demon king, which was completely invisible, but what was inside was shockingly surprising.
It was only now that his magic power had increased compared to before, and Roan could finally understand.
How great is the power of the Count,
How sophisticated it is changing that structure.
It’s just a pity that the target is a cat tower.
“… Great.”
Roan’s candid praise flowed out.
The number of floors was reduced by overlapping the poles supporting the top and bottom of the cat tower.
Some of the structures on the left and right were compressed, and some rotated 90 degrees or 180 degrees, changing places.
The resulting structure is about 3-4m high,
About 3 m in height,
The compact (?) Size, as if the previous structure had been drastically reduced.
But the count is not his own product
He stared at the emperor with astonished eyes.
The narrow pupils in the orange eyes suddenly widened.
“… Awesome… Did you?”
“?”
In response to the honest question felt in those words,
Rather, Roan looked at the Count in surprise.
“What do you mean? The Count’s magic must be one of the best in Evirgio. Seeing it intuition makes me admire it without even realizing it.”
The count’s eyes suddenly narrowed as he stared at the emperor for a long time without recalling anything of disrespect.
“Whoops, thank you! Your majesty.”
The count felt better.
When most people saw the count’s magic, they thought about what to use it for.
Especially those who had the Count under them.
Until the Earl ascended to the position of Highlord, who had only a few people over him, including the Emperor,
It hadn’t changed.
However, the emperor saw his magic and
I just admire and praise it like it’s amazing.
At first glance, the thoughtful yet innocent look and expression made the Count feel his emotions rise without knowing why.
“I never thought I would be praised by His Majesty. It was great to be part of this study too!”
Then, feeling better, he suddenly started taking something out of his magic bag.
“It feels great! Then, now that this has happened, let me show you more of my confidence!”
“Count, it is not necessary…”
However, the sight that followed made Roan shut his mouth again.
He flattened the backpack the Count had brought and opened his mouth wide.
And put both hands deep inside.
As if he got what he wanted, he gave it a lot of strength,
Start pulling with all your might.
And what starts to come out of the bag
Huge machine.
The machine that passed through the entrance of the backpack in a distorted form seemed to return to its normal size after exiting the bag for some time.
It’s like how a cartoon draws something big when it comes out of a small hole.
But I guess it wasn’t light.
“Lungs, Your Majesty, a little… Please help…”
While even the attendants were stunned and watched the scene, the count asked for help from the emperor standing right next to him.
When Roan was handed the tip of the machine the Count was holding, he sighed and sighed.
He was the first strong enemy he encountered with a body with 99 strength.
“Count, this is…”
I was about to say, “Even if I take this out, I’ll put it back in the lab anyway.”
Due to the weight of the machine, Roan couldn’t bear to speak.
Roan took all the machines out of his bag and carefully lowered them to the ground.
He said to lightly let go of the tip, but it was so heavy that the ground around it vibrated.
— Kung.
It weighs a few hundred kilograms.
It’s Roan, but I already hit 99 strength.
What the heck did the count do this somehow?
The Count smiled and showed his bracelet on his arm.
“A bracelet of power. They pay a high price.”
“… This is something.”
“Ah. This is the magic tracking camera I developed!”
With a proud voice, the Count introduced the machine in front of him.
Roan looked at the machine with a slight frown.
The frame made of wood and metal has round glasses that look like lenses in several places.
“You can track the flow of magical power in real time! It’s different from what normal wizards use. It’s my custom piece!”
Since Roan is not a wizard, it was difficult for him to understand most of the explanations,
I didn’t want to disturb the Count, who was so upset, so I just listened to his explanation.
A normal thing has the function of taking a picture. However, it is said that this machine made by the count can see the flow of magic in real time.
“You made it?”
“Yes!”
The Count nodded proudly at Roan’s question.
What I feel in his explanation is affection and pride.
Perhaps the Count liked the work of making machines itself.
So, the facilities in DOS,
Did he willingly create North Baekryung’s defensive magic circles and structures?
Subsequently, the count pulled several items out of the magic bag.
Improved Power Infuser,
Hazardous materials sealing tools, etc.
He enthusiastically explains that these are objects that ordinary wizards would never dream of.
So the count boasted of his invention in front of the emperor.
When the explanation was finally over, the Count, who had groaned and stuffed the machine into his bag for a while, bowed his head to the emperor with a satisfied expression.
“It makes me very happy that Your Majesty listens to God like this.”
“… Hmm?”
It was an unexpected, normal reaction.
Unexpected gratitude, Roan looked down at the Count with wide-open eyes.
The small, gray-and-black-striped earl’s orange eyes curled softly.
“I know it’s not easy for Your Majesty, who is not a wizard, to listen to me like this. Most of them listen to me with a bored expression.”
Also, this child…
Was he living while pretending not to notice?
And Roan is the first
I could see the count’s serious expression.
“It is a pleasure to work with someone who listens to someone like this. I will do my best too. Your majesty.”
The great lord’s tail was lifted straight into the air with determination.
The fact that he is a candid tail that even expresses his determination caught Roan’s attention, but Roan must respond to the Earl’s sincerity.
He strained to observe the tail’s movements with only a squint and ‘detection’.
“Thank you.”
And aside from that,
The Earl’s serious research will be of great help in producing results quickly.
The Count smiled at Roan’s greeting.
“Yes. Spring is not far. We will make sure to produce satisfactory results by then.”
Roan was taken aback for a moment.
Good is good…
What experiment do you want me to do?
Although I was a little afraid,
Roan nodded and accepted the Count’s will.
The Count, who expressed his aspirations like that, hastened to build a laboratory with unprecedented speed.
It was a completely different attitude from the one he had taken a nap in the study before, saying he would observe Roan.
After Li Ron, the treasurer, went to work, he heard rumors that the Northern Baeknyeongju belatedly took out his invention in the garden, boasted to the emperor, and opened a laboratory.
He gasped into the lab, greeted the Count, and asked for insight into his inventions, but
After there was an incident in which you were kicked out coldly.
After breakfast, Roan and Helen headed to the Count’s lab.
From now on, Helen will be the one who uses divine power for research and assists the Count.
Because Roan has to do his housework.
Helen, unable to stay by his side, showed a slightly sad expression,
As she herself said before, Helen was ready to do whatever Roan wanted.
“Then Helen, before you go in.”
Roan bets on Helen the ‘Blessing of the Stars’,
She also bet on herself a ‘star blessing’.
As soon as I wake up, the ‘blessing’ that I put on is valid for about 3 hours.
I definitely found out that ‘Star’s Blessing’ helps concentration and the process of using magic.
In particular, it was nice to be able to apply buffs to both uses, regardless of magic or divine power.
Concentration increased, and magic casting speed and power improved.
Accordingly, naturally, the analysis of the obtained results was also highly efficient.
It was because I had the time to calmly observe how the magic worked.
If it was in the game, it would have been ‘experience’.
And the result is the improvement of the knowledge stat.
So, since the beginning of this year, Roan has been practicing magic, moving magical powers and divine powers, and using magic with ‘Star’s Blessing’ on herself.
Consistent efforts have paid off,
Now his knowledge is 58.
If it goes up by 2, he can master intermediate level magic.
“You have become proficient.”
Having grasped the flow of Roan’s holy power, Helen gave words of praise to Roan.
Roan opened the lab door with a smile on his face. But as soon as he opened the door, the smile vanished from his face.
