Chapter 130 – Chapter 130 ― The Story Hidden From You (1)
Episode 130 ― The story hidden from you (1)
All sorts of thoughts ran through Roan’s head.
That she was a woman?
Why do you suddenly have a crush?
Come now?
Sounds in the meantime.
Beep beep.
Although I’m suppressing ‘Miheun’
It cannot be completely sealed.
The basic principle is that skills are always activated.
This is because skills are created based on your actions, thoughts, and stats.
No matter how much you suppress it, skills seep into your actions, just as you can’t completely hide your ‘presence’.
And as in the description of ‘Miheun’, the effect of the skill varies depending on the favorability and mental strength of the affected target, no matter how weak it is.
Beep beep.
That this is,
The Count has a crush on me… ?
Me, suddenly… ?
However, the moment our eyes met with the count.
Roan suddenly came to his senses.
The Count won’t know what he’s been through.
I guess it’s my skill, but I can’t be sure.
She wouldn’t want to find out she was a woman. Because it’s been hidden until now.
Then what I need to do is
Pretend not to know
Roan’s judgment was quick enough.
That moment when Helen, who had been weeping, wiped her tears and stared at the Count, who suddenly withdrew her hand.
Roan looked at the Count with a slightly surprised expression.
“… Why are you suddenly like that, Count?”
Beep beep.
“Ah, nothing, Your Majesty! Aha, uhm. After all, a bit of divine power… You don’t fit in with the demons!”
“Then would you give up the experiment?”
“That can’t be! Anyway, I felt refreshed. That’s amazing! Thank you!”
The liking rating, which went up for a while, stopped after taking +40. Roan also needed time to think.
“Then Count, clean up and go back to rest. I will tell you more about it tomorrow.”
Sending the dreamy Count back to his lodgings.
Roan took a picture of the greenhouse with the magic ball for saving images.
Duplicate it and send the two to the East Emperor and West Blood respectively as magic birds.
And one screened in front of a small meeting.
“Ohhh!!!”
“Your Majesty, my God, isn’t it amazing!”
Minoreus and Shkviena jumped up from their seats in horror.
Aranya couldn’t even point out the rudeness of the two, and stared intently at the video coming out of her magic sphere with her eyes wide open.
Hehe.”
Only Lylon crossed her arms and smiled happily.
It is said that he only put a spoon on it, so the private material he consumed was collected by Lee Ron over two hundred years of her life.
It’s worth being proud of.
“Cherry blossoms… If you can grow something like that…”
The prime minister is looking at the tree in the video with a sad face.
“It seems worthwhile to invest the magic stone. Haha.”
“Yes, treasurer. Report on the magic stones you used later. Chancellor, so that we can compensate for it.”
“Your majesty. Thank you, but I will only accept your heart.”
The treasurer unexpectedly turned down Roan’s offer of compensation.
“Instead, I made an appointment to visit the Count’s lab.”
He stroked his chin with the bones of his fingers, as if satisfied.
“Besides, isn’t this the pride of life? If a forest grows in Evirzio in the future, I will definitely tell you. Without me, it would have taken a longer time to grow that forest. Haha!”
Treasurer rattling and laughing loudly.
Aranya, who would normally have refrained from arguing, smiled generously today.
“I wondered what he was going to do after collecting enough mana stones to control a city, did he twist the curse magic and use it like that? After all, it is the Northern Baengnyeong Lord.”
The chancellor expressed concern when he heard that the treasurer and the count were collecting magic stones. However, she can’t help but admire the appearance of that green field that appeared as a result of her.
Although it is still only a small field,
The next day, everyone in the small meeting admired the vitality of the crops planted there.
The count became more like a person and went alone with Roan.
I combed the ears and tail where the hairs were clumped here and there, and it became shiny after a long time.
Her gold and brown hair, which had always been messy and messy, was finely combed and neatly tied today.
“Did you rest well?”
“Thank you, Your Majesty! As soon as I put my head on the bed, the memory disappears. Ahaha.”
Looking at the count scratching his head as if embarrassed, Roan opened his mouth.
It’s a pity to throw in the next job as soon as you finish a job, but it’s a process that can never be skipped.
“Just because the research is over doesn’t mean everything is over. From now on, more important steps remain.”
“Yes, stable mass production and just the right amount of adjustment!”
The count, whose orange eyes shone, shook his head and accepted Roan’s words.
“Hmm. It would be nice if the research ended quickly so I could use it in the spring.”
“Then I don’t really have much time.”
With her arms crossed and her legs twitching,
The Count began to calculate something of his own.
Roan waited for the Count to finish his thoughts.
He is the same as when he first started researching crystals.
Hurrying doesn’t bring results quickly. It’s just that it’s important to help quickly and properly when you need it.
How much quantity will you need?
How long does it take to produce and how many resources are needed?
After conveying this and that to the emperor and sorting out the details, the count suddenly spoke.
“This kind of research has been going on for a long time.”
“Hmm? A study like this?”
“Not for me, but for someone else to spend my energy and time.”
Roan stared blankly at the Count.
However, I don’t feel regret or annoyance from his or her words.
“In the past, when the Northern Baengnyeongju of my predecessor was alive. The first thing I received after becoming a wizard chief was to fix Dos’ facilities.”
Knowing that he is Roan’s enemy,
Is it just because I don’t like the former North Baekryeongju?
There was no sign of respect in the words of the count, who was shaking his legs that still did not reach the floor and addressing the former high lord in a light tone.
“At first, the words annoyed me. He was made chief wizard because he needed power, but he didn’t expect to lead such a useless task. I had to work anyway, so I trudged out to the pier! Then.”
It was surprising that the Count, who did not tell his story well, was talking about the past.
Roan listened to the Count with interest.
“People come and say something. Baron. What are you going to show me this time? Master Wizard. All our lives we’ve been doing things like secretly bringing in human stuff. Is it okay to work on a boat in the clear now?”
The count looked happy as he lowered his voice to imitate people’s voices.
“Whatever that means, I remember being so excited that I shut myself away for a while. After a year or two, I got another title. Aha☆”
The Count, who secretly boasted, said with a smile.
“It’s nice to have someone expect something from me! Even if it’s the direction of saving someone’s life rather than taking it, I’ll be mistaken myself! In fact, they say that I don’t only have a vicious side!”
And suddenly, the Count’s expression calmed down.
The mask-like smile disappears.
Only a tired face remained.
“Usually, when I finally realize what kind of magic I am, I run away.”
“But you are the hero of DOS.”
The Count smiled bitterly at Roan’s question.
“That nickname was given to me when I killed the most people in one shot. Haha.”
I couldn’t be quick to comfort her.
The fact that he obtained the position through malicious means,
However, it is also true that he has created the basis for sustaining countless lives through his research.
So, Roan said plainly.
“You have faithfully carried out my orders. He remained faithful to me and found a way to open a new path for his people. Whoever you are What you have done is commendable.”
“… Your majesty.”
“So now it is my turn to be faithful to you.”
The count, who opened his eyes wide, stared blankly at Roan for a moment.
After being silent for a while, she managed to open her mouth again. The voice has already subsided.
“I don’t know if I can say this.”
The Count, who seemed to have no confidence in himself, added something like an excuse.
“… I am looking for a way to transform into a human.”
“… What?”
Roan, who involuntarily asked in a blank voice, was taken aback by her own words.
“… Hmm, hmm. I’m sorry. Continue.”
“Aha, Your Majesty’s reaction is perfectly normal! Because we demons don’t have to be inferior humans. Rather, it could be seen as moderate!”
Got the smile back. The Count, who put her mask back on, grinned.
“If you use a transformation tool, you can transform into a human above your head. But that’s an illusion.
So far, there is no transformation tool that lasts more than three or four hours. It is useless in a space where magic cannot be used. I can’t even hide this useless tail.”
“… The tail is not useless.”
Roan’s words gave strength.
Sensing the sincerity in his voice, the count looked at the emperor for a moment as if he was a little surprised, then smiled.
“Yes, what. It has its own use, but it will be useless in the human world anyway. Anything more than eye candy?”
Roan’s eyes narrowed.
“Count. You… Did you intend to go to the human world?”
From what I hear, this
It could be a confession of betrayal.
Roan consciously tried to loosen his tense body.
However, the Count’s tail hair stood up slightly when he felt Roan’s tension. She said in a trembling voice.
“… Yes. I was thinking of breaking through the human world with power that no human being could surpass.”
“… Why?”
“I have someone to find.”
Roan opened his eyes.
The story was going in a direction I had never imagined.
“To find someone… Did you intend to become a human and go to a human country? What is the high lord position?”
“Isn’t this the best place to gather strength or goods? Still, after a few years of hard work, I was able to get my hands on it right away, right? Ahaha☆”
… Damn, genius is unlucky.
If you slap that soft back of the head once…
However, Roan soon realized that in the eyes of others he was no different from the Count, and changed his mind.
The Demon King is a diamond spoon genius that is even greater than the Count.
“People… Is the seeker a human?”
“Ah. No. She’s my sister, and she’s a cat Suin like me! Kidnapped by pirates as a child. I brought all the pirates and kindly asked them one by one, but I couldn’t find much useful information.”
“… No way, that pirate is you…”
“Ah. Yes. I just wanted to find out information, but they were talking about each other and fighting each other and stabbing each other? And then there’s the title! Ahaha.”
The Earl laughed as if nothing was wrong, but Roan’s mind was complicated.
According to the report Roan received, a huge group with dozens of ships suddenly occupied a port and suddenly fought to death.
The only one who came out alive was the Count.
At that time she was sixteen of her age. She hadn’t even been a year since she had awakened.
Manipulating close to hundreds of people at once tells us that the level of a count is already close to that of the demons even at that age.
They were the guys who usually frequented DOS and plundered. There were prisoners who were kidnapped and sold like the family of the count.
Everyone in her started to look up to her as her hero.
However, the Count eventually found no trace of his brother.
Was she still trying to gain power?
“Right. That’s why I want to go there myself.”
“Yes. Evirgio has limits.”
No matter how much I am performing the emperorship here, in Merde, I will be an ordinary person in disguise, worried that my identity may be discovered at any moment.
Sitting in Evirgio and looking for someone who doesn’t even know where they are in the human world.
Almost impossible.
Only then did Roan understand the Count’s story.
If you take that power and blend into the human world,
You will have far more information than when you were sitting here and wielding the power of the Highlord.
Maybe it was part of trying to expand trade with Northern Baengnyeong.
“I get it. Give her information about her.”
“… Yes?”
“I will try my best too.”
The count’s eyes widened.
The black pupils in the orange eyes widened as if to fill them.
