Statement.

The art of speaking literally.

However, it is a power that is different from speech.

A unique technique that allows you to easily subdue an opponent with just one word.

If there had been no speech, Iria might not have been an S-class hero today. He would have been a top B-class hero with dragon blood and a sense of justice.

To that extent, speaking was a deceptive technique.

Of course, I am also fraudulent.

Because he was able to save the other person’s unique energy.

In addition to Iria’s dragon blood, I also [Save] the speech.

Accumulating Iria’s unique energy was virtually possible at any time. Because they were stuck together all day, like each other’s alter egos.

During the week-long non-face-to-face class period, we stayed together as one. And after class, it wasn’t like I always did something like that.

‘It’s a good thing I made some preparations. I never thought my sister’s anxiety would be right… … .’

It all started when Iria’s vigilance became stronger after receiving Moran’s letter.

Iria half-forced her to save her words, saying that it would be better to save her words for self-defense in addition to dragon blood. This is a statement containing an order to surrender obediently.

“Get down on your knees and surrender meekly right now. This is an order.”

[Load the saved unique energy]

[Unique name that can be retrieved: Eonsul (言述)]

[Number of remaining unique units after: None]

At that moment, all the unique energy I had stored was used up. Speech was truly my secret weapon, but I never thought I would end up using it like this… … .

ㅡFull!

As I released the last of my stored unique energy, the naked Empress really obediently kneeled down. The guy who attacked me so harshly.

“Uh, why… ?! How did you get Iria’s unique skills…? … ?!”

The kneeling Empress looks at her own body in astonishment as if she cannot understand.

Although the body was surrendering obediently,

My spirit was rebellious until the end.

He was furious with an expression of complete disbelief.

“Why? What do you know?”

“Keuuu… ! I can’t do this… … !!!”

“You said you were my subordinate, but you didn’t know the detailed ability of reflection?”

“Oh, no… ! I should have known! But didn’t his abilities deteriorate after his body became that small?!”

“Hmm?”

“From what I heard, your reflection is unstable right now? A unique skill that can be stored… It wasn’t just one… … ?!”

“Oh, just one? I’m sorry, but that’s pretty old information.”

The Empress’s answer was quite surprising.

I thought it was just stupid,

There seemed to be a big difference between the information he and I knew.

“Baaa~ Bo-! That was before the master’s full power was released-!”

At that time, Moran’s voice came from behind.

“… Ah, well, you’ve never received your master’s favor, so I’m not sure about the details -?”

“Can’t you shut that mouth?!”

As soon as I subdued the Empress, the one who followed immediately was Peony. Towards the back, Park Mak-rye, Iria, and Park Bi-hwa were narrowing the distance in that order.

Moran boasted incredibly fast speed, enough to surpass these two people. It was truly a body specialized in reconnaissance and information acquisition.

‘Well, since Moran, who had always been in charge of information, was removed from the alliance, the information was bound to become poor.’

I finally understand.

Why is their information power like this?

Anyway, I’m so glad that Moran is on my side.

“You, be quiet and behave! Loser~ Poor guy-♡”

“Keuuu… ! This is the end of the original period… … !!”

The Empress grits her teeth and resists with her whole body against Peony’s provocation. Naturally, he couldn’t move his body because he was in a state of speech intoxication, but his mental strength seemed to be great.

It felt like if I left it alone, I would be released from the speech.

“Shut your mouth and stay quiet! Didn’t you hear me tell you to surrender meekly?!”

“Huh… … !”

I silenced the Empress by overlapping the words that were still in use.

Since he was as persistent as a cockroach, I felt comfortable taking such firm action. And everyone will take care of the rest.

“Sihuya! Are you okay?!”

“I can’t believe it! I never thought it would come out like this… … ?”

Iria and Park Mak-rye, who had been following Moran, arrive one after another.

“Yes, sister. I’m fine. My sister is─”

-Wow!

Iria immediately hugged me and shook me. And then, ‘I’m sorry…’ ! I should have protected you… … ‘!’ he said, blaming himself.

“Sister… … ?”

I must have been very anxious as I was dragged away by the Empress. Tears were about to pour from Iria’s blue eyes.

“No matter what happens, I should have prioritized protecting you… … . I’m sorry… … .”

“Sister? I’m really fine. I’m glad he was stupid. And I survived thanks to my sister’s words? So there’s no need to blame yourself.”

“Yeah, but… … !”

“I overpowered my sister with her words, so it’s like she protected me, isn’t it?”

“Haaah, I was really worried… … !”

As I patted her back and comforted her, Iria buried her face in my shoulder. He pulled me tightly and fell sobbing. No crying was heard, but it seemed like he was trying to control his intense emotions.

I wondered what would happen if I got burned again by Iria’s tears, but I didn’t feel hot. It seemed like Iria was holding back her tears somehow.

Such a touching reunion was just for a moment.

「Activate Reflection using methods other than physical strikes. We have subdued the enemy.”

“As a result, the proficiency rank increases: A rank → S rank.”

「The function is unlocked as the rank of the unique technique increases: [Pierce through the essence] function added.」

“From now on, reflection will make you immune to intangible intrinsics such as extra-space distortion and psychological manipulation. Of course, unique energy that can be reflected as before can be reflected or stored as is.”

‘What’s happening all of a sudden?’

For the first time in quite a while, a holographic window covers my field of vision. System messages were blocking my eyes in layers.

It really has been a long time.

After previously rising to A rank,

It seems like it’s been almost a month since I’ve seen it.

‘I thought I would never be able to raise it to S rank… … ? But what about penetrating the essence?

I can’t figure out what the function is just based on the explanation given in the status window. Now that I have gone beyond reflection and penetrated the essence, I am immune to the inherent energy… … . It couldn’t have been a more profound explanation.

“… … .”

It was when I was lying in Iria’s arms and staring blankly at the status window.

ㅡCome on… !

Suddenly, I feel a presence behind me.

At the same time, a heavy feeling is added.

Someone hugged me from behind.

At first I thought it was a peony… … .

“Sihoo?! really… thank you so much… … ! Yes, I survived thanks to you earlier!”

It was the voice of Park Bi-hwa, who arrived late and exhausted. She fell down and hugged my back, expressing her gratitude.

The atmosphere was quite different from her usual cold and hard tone of voice.

“Ah, you’re safe… … !”

“Shihu, if it weren’t for you, I would have been very upset… … . Thank you, really… … !”

Well, I didn’t expect the Empress’s resurrection.

Because of that, I almost got into big trouble.

I didn’t really have a sense of duty to protect Park Bi-hwa, but I felt like I hated it. Park Myung-hwa was dangerous, so I couldn’t just sit back and watch.

“Hmm… ! Do we get along well except for me?!”

“Oh, peonies? Were you there too?”

“That’s it! If you make even the professor jealous, I can’t stand it-?!”

-Wow!

Moran’s massive breasts add to the pressure of Iria and Park Bi-hwa.

“Cough… ! Moran, peony… ? Soo, I’m suffocating… … .”

I barely finished all the battles,

Why is my breathing getting harder?

I have trouble breathing as the three women embrace.

Moreover, I feel like I am dying because of Iria and Park Bi-hwa’s hot body temperature.

“Do you think everyone came here to have fun-!!”

-Chuck! Slurp… !

At that time, Park Mak-rye, who didn’t seem to like seeing us like this, immediately drew his sword again. There was still life in her eyes.

Weren’t you caught up in Iria’s words?

Why are you making such a fuss by pulling out your sword again?

Now, just hearing Park Mak-rye’s voice gives me goosebumps.

“President of the Association? Surely not?”

“Grandma? Stop now! please… !”

“Haa-?! I will protect Sihu oppa-!”

As Park Mak-rye pulled out his sword, the women clung even closer to me. I am grateful that you are trying to protect me, but the pressure on my chest will suffocate me first.

“Hmm? What does that mean? I have no interest in that kid anymore.”

“… … ?”

“Are you going to leave him alone like that? There is no unique duration?”

“”Ah… … !””

Surprisingly, the place where Park Mak-rye’s sword was aimed was not me. The empress, who was kneeling with a resentful expression, was raising her sword to the tip of her chin.

“Grandma? Why don’t you just cut it with a single sword like before?”

“If you hit his head again, wouldn’t he be able to regenerate his body and run away like before? So I decided to just leave it to Iria.”

Park Mak-rye mutters while looking at Iria.

I guess they’re telling me to come quickly and finish it.

It is an amazing sight to see Park Mak-rye endure all the cutting.

“I understand. Let’s solve the problem later and deal with him first.”

Only then did they let me go.

“Puhaaaat… … .”

I really thought I was suffocating.

Of course, the cause of death is happy death.

Anyway, it was really over now. at las!

“Phew, what can we say about him? After all, I guess I should take it to the association first, right?”

Iria mutters to herself as she glares at the Empress, who has been forced to keep her mouth shut.

“Uuuu… … !”

On the other hand, the Empress frowned and still showed a defiant look on her face. He still looked like he couldn’t admit that he had been captured.

That’s great mental strength.

Even after being attacked by words, you are still rebelling.

If we had met one-on-one for no reason, it would have been a really big problem.

“Just stand up and follow us.”

“… … ?!”

Iria moves her lips and gives orders through speech.

There was no reason to capture the Empress.

It’s a hassle to drag it around.

Everyone was so exhausted.

“The association will question you in many ways. About the conspiracies you were plotting and the recent human trafficking case─”

ㅡKujijijijijijijik!

“… huh? What is it all of a sudden?”

ㅡKuuut!!!

However, Iria’s remarks did not last until the end. because… … .

“The Empress was kicked, was she crushed?!”

“What are those elephant leg-like things-?!”

“What is happening all of a sudden? … ?!”

“Everyone look up… ! There is a gate in the sky… … !”

Another unexpected thing happened.
