Archmage Transcending Through Regression - Chapter 110
Episode 110
“… … what?”
Marquis Kellibos frowned at the sudden news.
“What did you just say?”
“The reactions of the assassins sent to the underworld are all… … It is lost.”
“disappearance?”
The marquis’ eyes trembled.
“What’s not funny about that? I know best that there can be no such level of power in the underworld, so what kind of nonsense are you talking about!”
“That is… … The shoulder of the
aide who was making the report trembled like crazy.
“just… … said to have evaporated. It is said that it suddenly happened without leaving a trace… … ”
“What is that… … !”
The Marquis’ mind spun quickly.
He never doubted that the assassins he sent to the underworld would simply return from their mission.
I sent it because I was sure in the first place.
It was not at all difficult to erase one’s traces in the underworld.
Together.
‘… … Failed?’
He tapped the floor with the stick in his hand.
Results different than expected.
Things about the underworld must have been completely in his hands.
That moment.
“no way.”
The conversation I had with my son last night naturally came to my mind.
-Yes, I asked the warrior.
Apparently, that Mikhail Walpurgis approached his son.
And what the son wanted was to reveal the reality of the underworld and improve it.
Isn’t that too cynical?
I heard this news as if I had been waiting.
As if he knew he was going to get his hands on the underworld.
But how?
The ones sent to the dark side this time can’t be said to be the elite of the family, but they were constructed with great care.
Beings who were created to do the dirty work of the family thoroughly in the dark.
Even so, it’s not a skill that can be beaten by the gangsters of the dark side.
However, the fact that it happened like this clearly means that everything was expected and prepared from the beginning.
It’s not something that will happen in a day or two.
“… … What a bastard.”
Mikhail Walpurgis.
The heir and warrior of the damned Walpurgis family.
and… … her son.
“What would you like to do, sir? Just give me an order… … ”
“It’s late.”
The Marquis judged quickly.
If, as expected, the hero was involved and the assassins sent to the underworld were lost as a result.
It would be more correct to say that he also noticed the relationship between the dark family and his own family.
“Where is Mikhail Walpurgis now?”
“It is the central temple. if… … At the words of the vassal, the Marquis
gnashed his teeth.
The hand holding the cane trembled and the tendons swelled.
He looked through the window toward the central temple with bloodshot eyes.
“Go to the bastard.”
“… … yes?”
“Did you not hear? I told him to get ready because he was going to go.”
“I see!”
The vassal bowed his head to the Marquis and left the room.
The Marquis, who looked at him disapprovingly, looked at the hand holding the staff.
“… … damn it.”
It had turned white because of how much power he had exerted.
* * *
Changing a ruined future is definitely fun in many ways.
But among them, there is something personally enjoyable.
“Haha, isn’t it your Excellency the Marquis?”
Watching the tops of these writers get crumpled.
haha.
fun!
On the outside, I was smiling pretending to be gentle, but inside my head, I was already dancing merrily.
What else is happiness?
If the guys I hate fuck me, that’s happiness.
“… … Long time no see.”
“Long time no see. Why did the owner of the great family come here?”
The Marquis crumpled at my words.
Doing something that doesn’t work when you know everything… … Should I say it’s a decent expression?
I scratched gently once more.
“Of course, it must be a high-class and noble business befitting a great family, right?”
“… … .”
The Marquis quietly glared at me without answering.
“… … move places.”
“That won’t work.”
“It’s not a topic to talk about in public.”
“That, too, is not something I should be concerned about. I think His Excellency knows best.”
I said that while looking at the Marquis.
It was still snowing.
But what do you mean?
The Marquis has no means to threaten me.
Rather, if I threatened him, he threatened.
But first, I decided to take a step back.
It’s good to go out strong, but it’s like you can miss all the things you’ve caught.
“What good. Still, you are the Marquis, but I will give you some consideration.”
“… … bouncer.”
I took the Marquis into the heart of the temple.
An enclosed space out of reach of people.
It is perfect for intimate conversations.
The Marquis sat right across from me.
“It’s not like we’re having a good talk anyway, so let’s get straight to the point.”
Staring at me with clearly hostile eyes.
“Did you do it?”
“I don’t know what you are talking about.”
I said that and smiled.
The Marquis’ expression got even worse, but what did he say?
It’s a topic that I don’t need to talk about in the first place.
To be honest, I was just doing my job.
The Marquis was silent for a moment, as if fighting a nerve.
and.
“I heard that you seduced my son.”
“You are impulsive. You are very talkative. It’s not trivial enough to be called impulsive to uncover the culprit behind the crimes of the underworld.”
“My son is an imperial knight for the honor of the family… … ”
“Haha.”
The moment the word honor came out, I burst into laughter without knowing it.
It was a choice of words that I couldn’t help but laugh at.
“What is funny?”
“I just laughed. Have you ever been stabbed by something?”
“… … what?”
“No.”
I lazily crossed my legs and leaned on my back.
It was a rude attitude to do in front of the Marquis, but it didn’t matter.
He is not meant to be improved just because he shows sincerity.
The Marquis, who glared at me for a moment at my words, opened her mouth.
“I warn you once again. Stop playing mean tricks on my son.”
“So I’d appreciate it if you could tell me something that makes sense.”
I said while looking at the Marquis.
“Why not?”
“… … .”
For a moment the Marquis was silent.
There must be a lot of calculations going through my head quickly.
and soon.
“You know that it is a necessary evil.”
“You know.”
“Evil is a fragmentary evaluation. One way or another, where it will rot, it will rot.”
“… … .”
“So someone has to do evil out of necessity. Typically, our family is like that.”
“That word.”
A marquis who reveals things about his family more easily than he thought.
Calculation would be good.
That I already noticed and that I have the evidence. Hiding it doesn’t help.
“We are controlling the evil of the empire. Do you really think your great majesty doesn’t know about this?”
“… … .”
“There cannot be only light. You don’t know the world yet. That’s why you can naively call the underworld evil and be stubborn.”
A laugh came out at the Marquis’ words.
Actually what he said is true.
The role of controlling the underworld.
It is certainly true that the emperor had tacitly allowed that to happen.
I just have a problem.
“Did Your Majesty even allow children to be sold into slavery?”
“… … !”
“Of course, Your Excellency must have thought that using those who rebelled against the authority of the imperial family wouldn’t be a problem.”
young aristocratic slaves.
Most of them were entangled in the guilt-by-association system through dishonorable mistakes.
Of course, I didn’t like it that much, but I couldn’t help it.
I smiled and continued.
“I’m sure His Majesty wouldn’t allow something like this.”
“… … .”
“Of course, even if you do this, His Excellency will just throw away the chess pieces. I’ll get a little reprimand, but I’ll get over it without a big deal.”
“I know you well.”
“By the way.”
I looked straight at the Marquis, who was staring at me in a funny way.
“I don’t care about anything.”
“… … !”
“Do you think I am here as ‘Walpurgis’? In this central temple?”
“… … ?”
The Marquis’ face hardened at my words.
His eyes quickly scanned the surroundings.
central temple.
The only place within the Imperial Capital that belongs to the ‘neutral zone’.
“I am the heir of Walpurgis and a subject of the Empire, but at least not now, Your Excellency.”
“you… … ”
“I am a warrior.”
An existence that does not care about the empire, but protects the future history of all mankind beyond it.
“I mean, I’m in a position where I don’t have to worry about whether it’s the necessary evil or what His Excellency is talking about.”
It doesn’t matter if it’s a marquis or a duke.
necessary evil?
what a bitch evil is evil
A warrior is not a politician.
Certainly not a compromise position.
“Let’s not make silly excuses. There’s nothing wrong with beating bad guys, why are you talking so much?”
The Marquis has already revealed something about himself.
As a ‘necessary evil’, Kelli Boss is involved in the underworld of the Empire in the dark.
“All your Excellency can do now is choose one of the two.”
He asked, stretching out two fingers.
“Are you going to get out of the underworld business, or are you still going to keep that prominent ‘necessary evil’?”
It was at that point that I changed my attitude toward the Marquis.
“I’m sure you’ll have to decide right in front of me, Marquis Kellibos.”
* * *
“Hmm.”
Marquis Kellibos’ answer was simple.
He kicked out of his chair with a reddened face, probably deciding that he was not worthy of accepting my offer.
It was to be expected.
Even if you look at it rationally, you won’t be able to reap a business that takes a significant share in your family at once from my threat, and you won’t want to follow my words emotionally.
yes it can be
But I also didn’t bring him in thinking that the Marquis would listen to me this time.
A few minutes after the Marquis left.
“Did you hear me?”
I asked that against the empty wall in the corner.
At that moment, a crack appeared in the space hidden in the wall.
And slowly it collapsed.
“… … ha ha ha.”
Myrun walked out with a silly smile.
Circle 6 Divine Illusion Magic.
Moreover, it was good to see it as a 7th circle class because it was added to the divine power that existed in the central temple itself.
There was no way that the Marquis, who had no knowledge of magic, would notice.
Moreover, there is a barrier that suppresses the use of magic itself in the capital city, so he probably didn’t even know about it.
Anyway, what’s important.
That Myrun Kellibos had been listening to all these conversations.
Kellibos’s second son heard all the details hitherto unknown.
Information that was passed on only to the heir.
No, the case of Myrun is a bit more special.
He was the ‘result’ specially created by the Marquis to enhance the honor of Kelibos.
In other words, it means that it is an existence that was intentionally created to prevent the darkness of the family from reaching it.
The conscience of Kelibos, who must have grown from birth as an imperial knight and a talent to represent the family’s honor.
That conscience knew the truth.
It’s not too extreme and I found out in a timely manner.
“What would you like to do?”
“… … I decided.”
At the point of knowing the whole truth, Myrun no longer hesitated.
He must have gone through enough troubles before coming here.
“Families must change. The word necessary evil is just a means to justify evil… … ”
Myrun’s fist trembled.
“No more, no less.”
“It won’t be easy. As you can see, the Marquis has no intention of changing the direction of the family.”
“so.”
Myrun looked in my direction.
Then he lowered his head.
“Please lead me, hero.”
Staring at me with clear eyes, My Lun said.
“I cannot take responsibility for everything in the foreground. If you normalize the family and spread your will, you must do it yourself.”
“I know. One.”
Myrun looked straight at me.
“I think there must be a reason why the hero told me the truth and showed me this.”
“Hmm.”
Also quick-witted
It would be a lie if I said I didn’t intend this situation.
“great.”
I said while looking at Myrun.
“Then let’s start planning step by step from now on.”
It’s probably not planned to be 12 years, but that’s okay.
Anyway, the restoration of the family will be done through Mylun, not me.
“Cheer up.”
I smiled at him.
“Let’s revitalize the family.”
Really this time.
surely.
Great mage who transcends by regression
