I Became The Indolent Young Master Of The Academy - Chapter 128

First line of defense, the Windsor family villa.

Sophia was neatly laid out on the bed.

The therapist who had been examining the body for a while stood up.

“The body is normal.”

“Do you know why you’re not waking up?”

“I’m not sure, but…”

Ruid nodded, looking at the white-haired old man.

“In the past, I have cared for patients with similar conditions. “Twelve years ago, it was when a massive wave like never before came.”

He calmly gazed at Lloyd.

“Have you heard of the Mine of Memory?”

“no.”

“This demon is crueler than any other demon. If you are attacked by that demon, your very existence will disappear.”

“…Existence itself?”

Luid’s pupils got bigger.
I knew that there were various types of mines, but this was the first time I heard that something like that was possible.

“yes. No one will be able to remember. “Lover, family, and even children.”

“Does that have something to do with Sophia?”

“The symptoms are similar to those suffered by the Memory Demon. It’s like a doll, it’s alive but it doesn’t seem to be alive. But… this girl doesn’t seem to be like that. Because it remains in everyone’s memories. “This is the limit of my abilities.”

The therapist said apologetically.

“I’m sorry I couldn’t help you.”

“no. It was helpful. “You can go.”

“then.”

After the therapist left, Ruid sighed and sat down in the chair.

“Is it like this?”

I was expecting it.
Even if you change the Sophia of the past and the Sophia of the present, there is no way the dead person will come back to life.

Even if we change the past, Sophia’s death is already ‘confirmed.’

Ruid was just curious.
Could it be that he was unable to save Sophia because deep down in his heart, he had ‘doubts’ about his own magic?

Or – no matter how much magic was, it couldn’t bring a dead person back to life?

“Even if you replace the rotten bread with new bread from the past, will that part still rot? It was a good study.”

The magic failed.
But there was income.
At least Sophia’s messed up body became fine.
It would be nice if we could somehow save the soul, but it is a long way off at the moment.
Ella is stuck in her room trying to figure out a solution, but even for Ella, I think this case is difficult.

“Is there anything else we can find out? Even though he’s dead, it’s impossible to conduct further experiments on him. Now then…”

‘It is currently impossible to save Delrin without any mediation. After all, is it best to let the warlocks take care of themselves?’

If possible, I wanted to save Delrin.
But it’s not that simple. You can’t even use Dragon Heart. Unlike the First Emperor, Delrin does not have a body.

In the original work, warlocks used the three holy relics, but did not use corpses.
In other words, you have to save Delrin without a corpse… What comes to mind right away is one of the three holy relics. All you have to do is use ‘Delin’s Tears’.

It is unclear whether this will also work properly.

Ruid stopped thinking and stood up.

I opened the closet and thought about it for a moment. All the clothes in the closet were outdoor clothes.

‘In the military, they called this a ski kappa, right?’

It is a thick outer shell made from the thick fur of the ‘White Beowolf’ to withstand the cold.

Ruid doesn’t get very cold, but he likes to wear this. This is because the soft polar bear fur on the inside feels very nice.

There are various colors. White, black, green.

Ruid took out the green one and put it on. I lifted the zipper up to the end of my neck. It was a little heavy, but the overwhelming warmth made up for it.

‘This is it.’

Satisfied, Ruid glanced at Sophia, who was sleeping quietly, then opened the door and went outside.

It’s already been a week since that incident happened.

Ruid decided that sending the students to the system like this was a handshake, so he brought the students to the first line of defense as originally planned.

Students are generally panicked. If it was natural, it was natural. Because the friend I used to laugh and chat with until yesterday died.

But it wasn’t that serious. Even though she was an empty shell without a soul, at least she looked fine on the outside and was putting her trust in Ruid.

Thanks to you, I got a justification. They were now able to detain them until Sophia woke up.

So the situation is neither serious nor hopeful. No, the problem was that it was so quiet even after one person had died.

…Yeah, that was the problem.

After coming out, Ruid kicked the ground and flew into the sky.

“…It’s strange. It’s so quiet. A commoner I know. Especially when it comes to Justin, it’s not surprising if he makes a fuss. “Are you overwhelmed?”

Ruid frowned as he crossed the sky at high speed.

A part of my heart continued to feel tight. Ruid found a place where students were gathered and lowered his altitude.

They were training. The swordsmanship department was under Amelia’s guidance, and the magic department was under Hersi’s guidance.

Ruid landed next to Charlotte, who was watching while yawning.

“Ah, master. “What about the mafia?”

“Sofia, not the mafia. “It’s still the same.”

Charlotte smiled and tapped her thigh.
 
Ruid, who suddenly opened his eyes, quietly went over and sat on Charlotte. Charlotte hugged Lloyd and whispered to him.

“young master. “What are you going to do?”

“….”

Ruid looked at the students training without saying anything.

‘But why is Asha like that?’

“You are also interested in that child?”

“No, not really…”

“You mean it’s amazing? “I didn’t know there were people with that kind of talent in the system.”

“Asha, do you have talent?”

‘Come to think of it.’

Ruid recalled the sparring he had with the student council in the past.

Asha, who was put in just to match the assortment because there was no space, surprisingly did her job well.

I just passed it over at the time, but I never thought I would have talent.

“He is a coveted talent. “If you train for just two years, you can easily join the Knights of Windsor.”

“That much?”

Ruid was a little surprised.
This is because I knew how difficult the process of becoming a Knight of Windsor was.

“What can I say… I swing the sword really poorly, should I say the ending is good? The process is bad, but the result is good. It’s a good talent, master. “Did you find out about it in advance?”

“Uh, uh…”

Ruid answered with a shocked expression.
After a while, Ruid spoke in a low voice.

“We can’t leave it like this forever.”

“You knew?”

Ruid nodded.

Someday, they will return.

There’s no problem if you save Sofia –
but if you don’t.

“If a problem arises, what will our master choose?”

Charlotte smiled brightly.

“…I do not know.”

Rationally, I know.
What is the emperor’s fault now?
It just needs to be resolved amicably.

However, emotionally…
the scene I saw at that time was very impressive.

Perhaps Ruid’s heart may have already tilted towards the fall of the empire.

In that situation, if the Empire uses Sophia’s death as an excuse to cause damage.

Then…

doesn’t it seem like the whole situation is calling for the destruction of the empire?

**

Ruid visited Irene’s office.

After completing her duties at the 4th defense line, Irene came back to perform her original job of ‘generalizing the 1st defense line’.

However, there is one thing that is surprising…

“Damon. “What did I tell you to do about something that bothers you?”

“Hmph, easy question. Destroy and kill. “Any other method is just barbaric.”

“hmm. “You learned it right.”

‘…What on earth did you teach that kid!’

Ruid could not contain his astonishment.

Originally, Damon lived with a bit of madness, but now he was consumed by that madness.

“Ah, Louis.”

“It seems like it’s been a while since I last saw you.”

“…What have you been doing?”

Ruid approached Irene with a worried expression.

“Come here.”

Irene hugged Ruid and sat down.
If you hold Charlotte loosely, it feels like you hold Irene so she can’t move.
I feel as if I am being restrained. But I don’t feel too bad.

‘This.’

A map appeared in the eyes of Ruid, who was held by Irene and whose visibility was heightened.

What were you doing with Damon just now? The table was quite messy.

Things that look like chess pieces are placed all over the map.

‘The red ones are monsters and the blue ones are knights.’

There are countless red objects placed in a row.
What’s unusual is that the middle part is empty like a tunnel.

“Defense line map?”

“That’s right, Louis.”

Irene stroked Ruid’s head and explained briefly.

“As you can see, together with Damon, we have penetrated deep into the fourth line of defense.”

“Did you catch the monster with Damon?”

“Special training because you’re Louis’ friend?”

Ruid looked at Damon with shaking eyes.

“There is nothing to call it training. “All I did was chase after Irene Windsor.”

“But it helped, right?”

“exactly. Thank you.”

“You will be a good emperor.”

‘Really… Irene is unpredictable.’

Ruid sighed.
He suddenly took Damon and wiped out the monsters on the defense line.
Even the emperor….

‘Emperor?’

“…Oh, Sister Irene?”

Ruid hurriedly turned around.

“Why? “Cute.”

Irene smiled brightly and pulled down the zipper of Ruid’s nightshirt. Thanks to the large field of view, Ruid’s half-hidden face was fully visible.

“Emperor, what does that mean?”

Ruid asked, wondering if it could be possible. Irene blinked and answered without hesitation.

“It meant that Damon would become emperor.”

The tone is as if he is saying something very obvious.

“…?”

“You’re twice as cute today, Louis.”

Irene’s eyes sparkled and she stroked her cheek.

“If you’re such a cute friend of Louis, you should be an emperor.”

“Now, now, just a moment.”

Ruid grabbed Irene’s arm.

“What do you mean, sister?”

“huh? “What’s your problem?”

“It’s a problem, of course it is! “That means you’re going to commit treason.”

“I don’t feel good when you call it treason.”

Damon frowned.
He proudly declared, crossing his arms.

“I’m just getting my original place back.”

“That’s treason…!”

‘Why do things happen like this?’

Lloyd couldn’t help but be taken aback.
I knew that Irene was a bitch, but I had no idea that she would gaslight the prince, who was living a good life, to the point where she declared, ‘I will become emperor!’ in such a short period of time.

“Louis.”

Irene grabbed Ruid’s armpits and lifted him up.

“Yes.”

“I don’t think I understand.”

“…of course.”

“Then ask the opposite question.”

Irene smiled, raising the corners of her mouth as usual.
But his eyes were serious.

“Is there any reason why Damon shouldn’t be emperor?”

“That’s…”

Ruid blinked.

When I thought about it, there was no such thing.
