episode_0235

After Karssein fell after the battle with Maf.

Not long after, the imperial family caught wind of the situation and stormed into the room.

“Oh my, am I a step late…!”

The second prince, Florence, suddenly felt uncomfortable and turned around to arrive.

The same thing happened not only inside the room but also outside, and the tip of the sword was covered in blood and debris from the demonic beast.

Without even a moment to hesitate, he ordered a council member to be brought in and ordered soldiers to go and pick up the siblings of the Bagland Duke family.

– Sweet.

The door to the hospital room opens and the royal doctor walks out.

“What happened?”

Claire, who couldn’t leave the hospital room with a nervous heart, asked that question.

Even though the congressman finally arrived, I couldn’t shake off my anxiety.

That fight was an extremely unfavorable fight for Karssein.

You might not have known it when Claire was covering and assisting the attack, but after the situation became 1:1, it was difficult to guarantee victory.

In that case, this victory must have been a risky fight.

In fact, Karssein’s mana was completely exhausted after the fight.

However, the Emperor’s expression is bright.

“You risked using up all your mana, but if you rest well, you will recover quickly.”

“Really?”

“Yes. You have a very well-trained body, so there is nothing to worry about.”

Although it was critical enough to require surgery, he is no longer the foolish Carcein of the past.

The body that had been steadily developed through training was not weak. No matter what medicine I tried to use, it didn’t go too far, and it was strong enough that I didn’t have to worry about any side effects.

Carcein’s body, with its tenacious vitality, accelerated the speed of recovery and did not cause any damage even during the final stage of the procedure.

If it were an ordinary person, it wouldn’t have been surprising if he stopped breathing at some stage.

“Ha. I see.”

It was only then that Claire breathed a sigh of relief that the surgery was completed without difficulty.

The royal palace requested that if anything were to happen, they would call him at that time. In fact, he said he didn’t think something like that would happen, so he smiled and went away.

“…”

As permission is granted and I step into the room, I see Karsein lying down.

He said the results of the surgery and his health were fine.

He added something close to a compliment, saying that his body was well-maintained, so there really shouldn’t be any problem.

Still, Claire is confused.

My complicated and frustrating feelings won’t go away.

Because I keep thinking about my past self.

Like that, Claire watched Carcein sleeping for a long time.

-dripping.

Claire’s thoughts were broken by a knock on the door.

If you listen to the knocking sound, it seems a bit urgent.

“Hey, I heard that Karssein is seriously injured… can I come in?”

This voice.

I was able to hear it and recognize it right away.

‘You’re my fiancee.’

There is only one guardian right now.

That’s why you have to be wary of outsiders, but there’s no need for that person.

Claire got up and opened the door herself.

-Drop.

Purple hair appears when you open the door.

The beautiful woman had a very worried expression on her face.

When I saw that, I felt a little fortunate.

“Come in.”

“Ah, yes. Thank you.”

Thinking back to my past self, I promised myself that I would never do something like that again.

Now, as an older sister, I have decided to treat my younger brother well.

First of all, as Karssein’s protector, I take care of him. I was thinking of starting from there.

But Claire has no such qualifications.

This was the job of a real guardian who would take care of his younger brother instead of his older sister who, instead of protecting him, bullied him and did only bad things to him.

***

After the symposium, the incident took place significantly.

According to Karssein’s announcement, the connection between the Shatrene and Waglu factions was proven. The plan to intentionally sabotage Shatrene and ruin Karssein’s performance was discovered.

Furthermore, the imperial family began a search from the moment the existence of fertilizer, which was crucial evidence threatening the foundation of humanity, was revealed.

However, Arcien and Florence, who felt strangely tense, turned their heads.

As Karssein claimed, it was not wrong to send troops to find fertilizer. It is also true that if you make a last-ditch effort, you could be in trouble.

However, if you look at it without mentioning the medical history, it is quite strange.

I guessed that the Waggloo faction, which was going into the prison obediently, seemed to be trying to stall for time, but I felt uneasy about that.

If you have a plan to escape from the conference hall, the conference hall will end up empty.

In addition, there have been reports that Count Retelvik and the Waglu faction are doing suspicious things. What if he didn’t go into prison obediently, but did it with purpose?

The guess was exactly right.

The two turned their heads and returned to the conference hall, where they witnessed a situation where plant-type demon beasts were rampaging everywhere.

Afterwards, following Florence’s instructions, he tracked down the Wagluo nobles and easily caught up with the escapees at the place where they had fled, and finally succeeded in apprehending them.

Say.

Harnier explained.

“Unfortunately, we were not able to arrest him alive thanks to one person.”

“The fact that he was not arrested because he was still alive…”

“Yes. Count Retelbeek committed suicide in the end. I don’t know what they did to the other nobles, but they died at the same time.”

Death at the same time.

Those humans also had something.

‘It feels like I was silenced.’

As expected, it would be a good idea to investigate this…

“Did you try to look into this?”

Ugh… I notice it so much like a ghost.

Still, I have to give it a try.

I asked, scratching the back of my head.

Can’t I do “…?”

“Of course. Just do your research.”

huh. It seems like it will never happen.

It’s even scarier when you laugh like that while telling me to do something.

“Princess Arcien and Prince Florence have ordered a thorough investigation, so don’t even think about moving.”

If possible, it would be best to see it in person. Tsk.

‘Well… this is enough though.’

That’s right.

I collapsed after the battle with Maf.

So I had no idea what happened after that, what happened to the symposium, and what the outcome of the episode was.

When I opened my eyes, I saw Harnier, so I was just asking about that.

Anyway, when I heard that that was what happened between the start of the battle with Marph and being moved to the hospital room, my mind was somewhat put together.

There it is.

■Compensation

[I obtained the Shatrene Territory as a reward for clearing Chapter 2. ]

There was no need to worry about a bad ending because the status window even displayed messages.

I thought it would be better to let my body recover a little more right now.

“Ssotcha.”

“What are you doing now?”

“It’s getting a bit difficult to just stay in the hospital room. I need to relax my body a bit.”

More accurately, it could be called sensory recovery.

Even in Chapter 2, enemy entities appeared quite frequently.

Even when I stepped on the trap, an enemy entity appeared.

Battles also broke out in the territory thanks to events that came from time to time.

However, in Chapter 3, the proportion of battle increases.

‘What is the reason? It’s obvious. ‘It is inevitable that a combat situation will occur.’

Although he had no idea at the time, Karssein had the option to choose his authority.

A total of three things were seen at this stage.

Permission to use the training hall.

Authority to rule the Chatrene territory.

And the only thing left was authority.

When choosing a choice, I had to choose the training ground because I couldn’t choose the other two, but after entering Chapter 3, I realized that this was a piece of cake.

‘Hmmmm. So I have no choice but to relax now.’

Stat management.

Gain combat experience.

And there is nothing to skip, even mana training.

The edge had to be sharpened in some direction.

…however.

Why is my fiancee’s expression scary?

“K. le. count. In?”

I was frightened by the staccato sound of the call and asked.

“Why, why are you like that…?”

“Carsein. You were seriously injured and were lying in a hospital room, right?”

“…Yes.”

“Then should I take a break? Shouldn’t I rest?”

She just advised me to take a break, but this time I also had something to say.

“Recovery is already complete. see. You’re fine. This kind of thing gets better if you sleep for a few hours and wake up.”

I woke up after a good rest and felt so light, so why would I stay still? Open shoulder? I recovered quickly with the elixir. Even just looking at the cancer, my body was fine.

But… my fiancee, who was smiling, said something meaningful.

“So, you’ve been sleeping well until now, right? How long do you think you fell asleep?”

“Uh…”

I have a bad feeling about something.

“Ha, a day?”

Absolutely.

The answer seems to be asking you to think again.

“So… two days?”

He says no.

He is warning you to think more carefully.

I swallowed my saliva and asked.

“Four, three days?”

Nothing breaks.

But it seems like I can hear a crackling sound from somewhere.

As I glanced at Harnier, I realized the reason.

ah. That crunching sound was a dare to offend my fiancé and brought on her anger.

-Wow!

“Ugh!”

“3 days? It sounds like 3 days. It’s the 5th, 5th! You’ve been asleep for 5 days!!”

The back spikes have been strengthened.

Spikes, which had changed into continuous firing, were falling on Harnier’s back in sync with the sound.

“Ugh, sleep, wait a minute. Harnier. That patient… billions!”

“So what? How many hours will it take to get better? You’re saying something that makes sense! ”

The continuous back spikes along with the nagging sound gave me enough reason to go up to bed again.

“Burr, the culprit is Harnier…”

“What are you saying!”

-match!

.

.

.

After getting hit once, I came to my senses.

5 days.

It’s understandable if he stayed asleep for such a long time.

What kind of crazy person would fall asleep for five days and then wake up and say he wants to start training?

…That was me.

-Sigh.

As I turned my head in confusion, Harnier lightly hugged my face.

“Don’t make people worry.”

“…”

“If you get hurt like this, don’t you think people will be upset?”

Quite different from before.

She asked in a very serious voice.

It seemed like any number of answers were possible, but…

Strangely, I couldn’t say anything at this moment.

“I will be watching you closely from the side, so don’t think about anything else and just rest. Got it?”

…I still can’t get used to it.

For this favor.

***

As with every symposium, there were strong winds, but this symposium was completely swept away by a typhoon.

There was a chaotic situation where a bloody wind blew and a lot of demonic beasts came out from somewhere in the conference room, but the settlement ended well.

Soon I heard that a notice had arrived.

Isabella called Arina into the room.

I heard you called “. Mother.”

“Okay. Do you want to sit down? There is a notice, but I want to say something else.”

As I sat down on the sofa, Isabella handed me the notice.

What I meant was to check your grades yourself.

Sarah.

The notice was carefully unfolded.

The rank of the letter B written inside once again confirmed her final grade.

“As I figured out the capabilities of my children without the help of the head of the family, the average rank dropped by two to three. Still, you did well on the test so you don’t have to worry too much. You worked hard.”

Considering the difficulty of this test, it was definitely a respectable rank.

It is no exaggeration to say that it was a fire test, and although most of the people failed miserably or fell to the bottom, a rank of B was a fairly high score.

In terms of actual ranking, there probably aren’t even a few people above me.

If it were anyone else, I would have jumped up and down the moment I saw the notice.

but.

It wasn’t enough. Endlessly.

[It can be said that it is admirable that it manages to make a profit and takes the lives of residents into consideration. Despite suffering from heavy rain and flood damage, the estate showed slight progress. ]

[ However, the flow control part is disappointing. If the preliminary investigation had been more thorough, it might have been possible to reduce the damage further by channeling the damage to one side rather than blocking it from all directions. It is unfortunate that the damage was greater than in previous years. ]

In the general review written by Florence herself,

“But, unlike you, I never thought you would miss such a trivial detail. I’ll try to investigate more thoroughly next time.”

When Isabella also pinched the same spot, Arina couldn’t help but swallow.

“They say this is an additional award sent from the imperial family. I heard that it will be given to you who contributed in the conference room.”

Seeing the awards given to those who contributed made Arina even more appreciative.

Isabella took a sip of tea and gave advice to Arina.

“I think the ban on Karssein can be lifted now.”

“…! mother. What do you mean by that?”

“Didn’t you say something like that in the past? Arina.”

Isabella glanced at the embarrassed Arina and calmly continued speaking.

“There is now enough justification for these rights to return to Karssein. Isn’t that true just by looking at the symposium results?”
