The Player Hides His Past - Chapter 270
Episode 270. (2) Treasuries under the Imperial Palace,
too many to refuse .
As expected, it seemed that great items were stored.
As soon as the Emperor announces the opening of the Treasury.
Seeing the concerns expressed by the servants.
‘Actually, that’s a normal reaction.’
I don’t know if the empire is intact.
I am also a person with a conscience.
Seriously, unintentionally….
I saw the truth with my own two eyes thanks to crossing the Antonium full of shame. It would not be strange even if they were to suffer from food shortages starting tomorrow.
‘It’s not like I’m skipping a flea’s liver.’
He had no intention of robbing the empire’s underground treasury, which was already difficult. Therefore, he was not disappointed even though his servants hesitated and opposed him.
no beyond that
“You think I only want this price?”
I expressed the meaning of a resolute refusal with the Grandfell style of speech.
Of course, I, Lee Ho-yeol, swallowed my regrets…
but I have to know how to cover the time and place.
Above all, the accumulated contributions do not disappear anywhere.
So I decided.
‘When the Empire fully recovers its power then…!’
Without looking at the circumstances of the empire.
He said he would receive a reward for his contribution.
But this time, the cubic pavilion had an accident.
“Umm….”
The emperor spat and the servants looked at each other between me and the emperor. Among them, the faces of the servants who had voiced their opposition became white.
I hear the imperial mage muttering.
“…No, if you say something like that without looking at the crystal ball!”
Seriously, this guy’s way of speaking is optimized for causing useless misunderstandings. Yes, the misunderstanding should be corrected. It was the moment I was about to break the silence and open my mouth.
The Emperor struck out.
“I will order in the name of the emperor. From this moment…”
Emperor’s command.
It must have meant that he dared not interfere with his servants any more.
Anyway, why are you even talking about people?
Having doubts, I was immediately taken aback.
“To Sir Ho-yeol Lee, the deepest level of the underground report of the imperial palace.”
…Hey, wait a minute, Emperor?
“And I will grant you access to the 『War Emperor’s Library』.”
Didn’t I mean that?!
No, if someone hears it, they will misunderstand that they talked about the price because they didn’t like the reward…! I’ve just lost my integrity and innocence, as I’ve always done!
The emperor looked at me and continued.
“I apologize for the unnecessary fuss. However, please kindly understand. They never doubt your abilities. It’s just words that came out of loyalty and old age towards the empire.”
The emperor is sending a sincere apology.
How could the servants remain silent?
The servants all bowed their heads toward me.
Chuck—
“I apologize for my actions!”
I can’t lift my face because I’m apologetic…
The snout of destruction always makes me suffer.
In my mind, I also wanted to bow my head.
can it be possible
‘No matter how I look at it now, it’s too late to correct it.’
Are you scolding with integrity and innocence once more here?
Judging from the Emperor’s reaction…
He might be exaggerating and leaving the throne to me, right?
So let’s show flexibility here, Hoyeol.
and.
‘It’s too much of a reward to refuse.’
You have to take care of it.
Wouldn’t it be rude to keep refusing pure favors?
Besides, there was something I wanted to confirm among the words the emperor had spoken.
『The Warlord’s Library』
It doesn’t seem unusual even if you just listen to it.
It gives off the feeling that you need to check it out.
With such earnest desire, I opened my mouth.
“I will accept it generously.”
.
.
.
And now it was.
[You have entered the ‘Underground Treasury’ of the Imperial Palace.]
I am the Imperial Wizard who was looking into the crystal ball.
And with some of his servants, he entered the underground treasury.
The Emperor seemed full of desire to guide me personally.
‘I really should stop that.’
Didn’t I tell you before?
Even if I don’t sink from overwork.
The emperor must remain emperor forever.
‘The Secret Powers say that Yusra Kingdom alone is enough.’
To protect the majesty of the emperor.
I refused the emperor’s kindness and headed for the underground treasury with my servants. I looked around. It’s underground, so there’s no light, so it’s very dark.
The Imperial Wizard speaks proudly.
“The magic of the oath is constantly manifesting in the underground treasury. So that no enemy, whether by force or magic, could steal the treasures of the Empire.”
Is it a magical power neutralization space similar to Mugan?
Naturally, the magic light will not be able to manifest either.
I thought I lowered the mood again and held a torch.
while thinking stupid thoughts.
The Imperial Wizard stuck out his tongue.
“But I never imagined that you would be able to see through such an underground report of the imperial palace…! But after seeing him in person, I understand. If it was a dark dragon, he would have been able to see through it.”
Suddenly, the dark dragon…?
Are you messing with this?
No, more than that, who saw through what?
‘I wanted to say something.’
It seemed like a story about the [Milky Way Sharpening Stone]. They seemed to think that I had seen through the neutralization magic of the underground treasury when I requested the rental of the Milky Way whetstone from the underground treasury.
‘…Though I’m an asshole.’
I only knew about it because of the [Map that connects to everything] effect.
It’s something I’ve been feeling lately… but
it was right to cut unnecessary misunderstandings in advance.
No one will be able to guess what kind of aftermath a small misunderstanding will bring back. Of course, I wanted to be honest this time, but I couldn’t.
‘It evaporated and disappeared, so I’m not notified.’
Since there is no evidence, there is nothing to say.
But even if I save my words.
The Imperial Wizard took care of himself and continued talking.
“So you probably didn’t really need guidance. You should already have a clear idea of what kind of treasures are stored in the underground treasury of the imperial palace.”
I really didn’t know anything
Thanks to you, I feel like I’ve found a real treasure trove, so I’m excited.
I politely bow my head, whether or not I know what’s inside me.
“Nevertheless, it is an imperial procedure, so I would appreciate your understanding. Also, if you ever need any help, feel free to ask.”
Ttogak—
I started to look around the report in earnest after my sincere words.
until you enter.
I thought it would simply be similar to Garnet Hall in the Magic Tower.
This is the Garnet Hall where most of the magic tools in the Mage Tower are stored. If we were to simply compare military strength, the Mage Tower was several times superior to the Empire. Implicitly, he must have thought that it would be less rare than the magical tools of the Mage Tower.
By the way…
even if you look around here.
even look around
Everywhere the eyes reach is full of items.
It was not surprising.
It could have been a simple difference in the number of handling items. Why, unlike the Mage Tower, where only magic tools exist for wizards, the underground treasury of the imperial palace did not have such a class restriction.
I muttered.
“Is it closer to a department store than a specialty store?”
Someone asks me about my self-talk.
“…what did you say?”
“It was a story about Kii.”
“…marvelous? I’m sorry I couldn’t be of any help.”
What can I be sorry for?
Anyway, what if it was mixed.
It must be the problem with my cubic table, which I pack in grandiose oddities.
Unfortunately, however, there was no time to explain the strangeness.
That will be too.
[Rating: Epic]

.
So many epic items.
The type and quantity were at a level that could not be seen in the Mage Tower.
‘Actually, it’s not that I don’t understand.’
Wizards are a tribe that boasts complex and eccentric personalities.
More than anything, most wizards in the Mage Tower did not welcome the use of magic tools. Because it was the wizards of the Mage Tower who tried to prove their strength without resorting to other means.
‘I have no choice but to be relatively uninterested in magic tools.’
From equipment including sword bow shield armor.
Monocle ornaments, pocket watches…
even miscellaneous goods whose effects cannot be guessed.
Of course, the words I would spit were decided.
“The Empire deserves to regard it as a treasure.”
In terms of the Grandfell style of speech, this is the highest praise.
To be honest, I want to check all the effects one by one.
Because the message that came to mind stimulated my greed.
[Imperial Palace Underground Report]
[Accumulated contribution can be exchanged for items.]
[Contribution: 1001260000p]
The accumulated contribution is a whopping 1 billion.
How come you piled it up in half a day, and your conscience is pricked….
Didn’t you think of accepting it shamelessly?
Yes, because there was a strong contribution.
No matter how great an item you choose.
I thought I might be able to swap out at least a few of them.
‘Of course not now.’
At this moment, even if you try to insert a straw into the empire, you can’t.
It’s just that you’re keen to suck it up.
Just like I said before.
It is also rude to keep refusing.
‘Because I have to check it out.’
How many contribution points
can be exchanged for what amount of items.
And…
also to figure out what the war library is.
So I tried to look away.
“Continue to ask for guidance.”
“If you’re talking about guides, you’re talking about the war library, right?”
“Yes.”
The Emperor’s archives.
At a glance,
everyone except me seemed to be familiar with the Jeonhwang’s library. If so, may I ask first? I asked the Imperial Wizard who was ahead of me.
“I would like to ask for a brief guide about the war library.”
“Oh sure!”
Is it because you are relaxed?
Contrary to my first impression, he is very good at talking.
The more I looked, the more I resembled someone…
Anyway, to summarize the story of the Imperial Wizard, it was like this.
The Emperor’s library was a kind of search bar.
No matter what question you ask, if the answer lies on the Arcana continent.
A search engine that gives the questioner the answer.
Put it simply.
‘Upper compatibility of the map that connects to all things.’
The effect of the [Map that connects to all things] was great, but its effect was limited to objects. The war situation library without such restrictions is more versatile.
The servant who was listening added to the words.
“Actually, the emperor’s library is the driving force for the empire to rule, and at the same time, it must be the greatest treasure of the empire. The previous emperors said that whenever a crisis came to the empire, they sought answers from the Emperor’s Library and that the crisis was resolved thanks to them.”
Right.
because I heard
It is understandable how an empire with power inferior to that of the Mage Tower was able to dominate the Arcana continent. Yes, because there was such a cheat key. It must have been passed on from generation to generation without ruin.
‘If I can just use it…’
Maybe it can replace [10,000,000,000], right?
This was great news.
In that sense, I’m looking forward to it.
The library of the war situation that is revealed before long.
to speak of the result.
The Emperor’s library did not betray my expectations.
[Impossible to measure]
I just responded unexpectedly.
“is it.”
not measurable.
when you see that message.
I thought it might be a new item grade I didn’t know about.
Just like there was a [Legendary] grade item on top of [Epic].
[Legendary] I thought it was a higher grade item.
But it wasn’t.
“Can’t you feel the reverence right from the entrance?”
Although it may seem that way to the Arcanaians.
It wasn’t for me.
Because the message was overlapping in my field of vision.
Yes.
[Library of Warlords]
[Recommended Level: Unmeasurable]
[Collapse Progress: 92.7%]
Library of Warlords.
it was a crack
A tingling sensation was transmitted to the back of the head.
However, the more the situation like this, the more it shines.
Thanks to you, I have the same expression as always.
I looked at the library of the rift war situation.
Thanks, I’m starting to understand.
Why did I think the effect was overly fraudulent?
“This must have been odd, too.”
It was an effect that was possible because it was a spatial rift in [Giggy].
As long as you know the truth.
I needed to dig deeper.
In the arcana system, the appropriate level does not exist for nothing.
That the measurement level is unmeasurable.
It means that there is a risk that is really immeasurable.
‘But how did the previous emperors get into the library?’
Even if you didn’t see the message.
The moment you enter, you will have no choice but to feel the danger.
I guess I’ll have to talk to the Emperor about it.
timely.
irreplaceable with anything.
The golden tea time is back.
.
.
.
The emperor looked out the window from his library.
I saw the people of the street.
Did the news from beyond the wall reach them?
Their faces seem to radiate vitality beyond brightening up.
The emperor quietly opened his mouth.
“It’s finally an Antonium-like sight.”
The emperor remembered the words of his father, the previous emperor.
-“My son, remember that peace entails sacrifice.”
At that time, I did not fully understand what my father said.
But the moment the empire faces a real crisis.
The emperor realized.
It was neither the ministers nor the people who sacrificed.
That he was born as an emperor.
Just like the previous emperors did.
“It must be time for me to shoulder the weight of the crown as well.”
The emperor wanted to ask his father in heaven.
How are you feeling, father?
It feels like you’ve lived a life that you’ll have to end yourself someday.
In fact, I know without even asking.
“…That’s why you didn’t tell me.”
You always had a lonely expression on your face.
thought the emperor.
maybe at this moment.
He might be making the same expression as his father.
However, the emperor hid his expression.
“I am weak.”
I can’t express this feeling.
no you shouldn’t
Because he is a being that cannot be shaken under any circumstances.
After calming down, the emperor left the library.
It was to greet Ho-yeol, who had returned from the underground treasury.
‘I accept any request.’
No matter what kind of treasure it is.
Compared to Ho-yeol’s miracle, it was worthless.
however.
“I hope you like it.”
What Ho-yeol returned from the underground report was not a request.
It was just a word.
A man born as an emperor had never heard of anything in his life.
“I guess your worries.”
“…?”
“You can put the weight down in front of me.”
“…!”
It was a comfort.
.
.
.
It was really good up to that point.
…wouldn’t it be nice to just take the tea they serve you?
The emperor waved the tea bag around and said.
“The brewing method is a novel tea.”
I spoke shamelessly.
“Integrity and innocence.”
“Is this the car that symbolizes integrity and innocence?”
“At the same time, it embraces greatness that cannot but come naturally.”
“Ohh…”
“It’s called green tea.”
…really exaggerated packaging is a scam?!
