by adminEpisode 30 – Princess, Alice Tantalota 3 –
The atmosphere changed for a moment due to Geumtapju’s rejection.
Our body temperature must be 36.5 degrees.
The chill chilled the room.
In a room filled with silence.
Perhaps aware of the situation, Geumtapju’s mouth opened again.
“Whoosh- That’s an interesting reaction. Don’t worry, it’s not what you expected.”
Fortunately, it appears that it wasn’t a scam.
If it was going to be a scam, I would have immediately awakened as an Auror and cut off the branches and tried to take advantage of the confusion to inform the Magic Tower.
Take your hand off the sword slightly.
I asked why it wasn’t working.
“Ah. okay. So what does that mean?“
“Even if the princess hides information, just being interested in the golden pagoda can cause problems. There is room for suspicion in other towers.”
It made sense.
“Your goal is Alice. Wouldn’t that get the child’s attention?
I said that because I thought there was no reason to take risks when there was a way to safely divert attention.”
“Sure… All we have to do is divert Her Highness Alice’s attention.”
Reasonable words. As she said, it really didn’t seem like a scam.
It seems that the magic of the dwarves, which is 1500 years old, is difficult for even the Golden Top Lord to solve.
If it was released, the plan was to immediately send related information to other magic towers and cause trouble, so there was a safety device in place.
“Then, I would appreciate it if you could bring Her Highness Alice’s attention.”
We need to buy time by diverting Alice Tantalota’s attention elsewhere.
If you’re inside the academy, no matter how much you avoid it, there’s a point where you have to meet it eventually.
It is difficult to go against the royal family’s request, but it is taken into account if you do not receive any communication from the royal family at all.
“It’s that easy. Hehehe. Then we will prepare it right away.”
“Yes. Then I will believe it. Thank you.”
“Nothing to say. ah. And next time you come, it might be difficult to just spill a little bit about Dragon Heart like this, so could you decide what to say in advance?”
“Definitely. This time, I was able to come in because there was a quick-witted wizard. If you are a bit clueless, it might be difficult.”
“Yes. So what name will you give it?”
Appropriate name. What could that be?
The names should not overlap and should be names that others cannot easily associate.
And there’s a good name.
A name that only I know.
And a name I will never forget.
“I will say Kim Jong-un.”
“Kim Jeong-eun. Do you mean? Can you tell me what it means?”
“Rocketman was the name of a man who could fire an explosion of great destructive power from a distance. It’s not well known.”
It was nonsense and I chose Kim Jong-un to make it easier to remember.
Well, I didn’t lie, so it doesn’t matter.
Because he was a benefactor who made my life here a little better by making me go to the military.
Of course, if I actually meet him, I will kill him.
“I understand. There will definitely be no overlap. I’ll tell you later.”
“Thank you. I hope there will be progress in research.”
“I hope you too have a comfortable future.”
While talking like that, I was able to leave behind things that would attract the princess’s attention.
Now, I slowly headed towards the academy, thinking about what I should do next.
==========
The room where Abraxas and Theseus left.
The Geumtapju immediately called the Butapju.
“Top owner. So, have you figured out the identity?”
The vice-tapju naturally mentioned what the tapju was trying to do.
However, a mixed reaction of disappointment came out of the top owner’s mouth.
“No. They may have used some good items, but they failed to completely penetrate the magic. If I had the eyes of a dragon, I would look through them.”
“Even so, why won’t you remove the spell on the Dragon Heart? Magic may be difficult right away, but if you give yourself enough time, say a year, you can fully interpret it.
If the interpretation is not done by dissolving the magic, it will not affect the magic circle, so if you dispel it right away when you can, it will be useless. So, you can give it a try, right?”
Magic Tower is also clearly an interest group.
Wizards usually have a strong desire for fame, and spend a lot of money to gain it.
Therefore, the vice-tap lord wanted to dismantle the protection magic that would completely transfer the ownership of the Dragon Heart.
But Geumtapju’s thoughts were different.
She told Butapju the details of the situation.
“That’s such a low-level thing. Dragon Heart is in the Golden Tower, but what if its ownership is taken away? I don’t know how he will proceed. In the worst case, you may have already told some magic towers.”
“Is it the other magic tower?”
“Yes. If you can approach the owner of another magic tower, you can at least spread the fact that the golden magic tower owns it. There is a contract.
Your intention is that if the ownership of Dragon Heart disappears, there will be no need to fulfill the contract, but what if he showed the contract to another tower owner?”
“If that happens… ”
“Other tower owners will attack us politically the moment their ownership disappears. It’s our fault, and it’s for the tower owners’ benefit to do so.”
Ownership still belongs to Abraxas. And if it was stolen, the justification is also Abraxas.
Abraxas even has the authority to hide information.
On the other hand, Geumma Tower had no authority to claim Dragon Heart.
I just came to ask out of courtesy, even though Abraxas unilaterally revealed to the princess that the Dragon Heart was in the Golden Magic Tower.
The Golden Horse Tower would not have been able to say anything to him.
“Definitely… If you help them a lot, they might lend it to you… Even if you only rent hearts, it’s a blessing… ”
“At least I’m not someone who can’t think of that. Even if it’s not in that way, you have to think that they have the power to take it from us.”
“Are you saying that even the tower owner can’t win?”
“I don’t know. But it seemed a little bit like when I said no. If I were not careful, I might have been attacked.”
“Attack the tower owner… !”
“I guess it was because I thought it was worth fighting at least. Even if not, whatever. There is no need for us to lose anything.”
He is the one who rescued the Dragon Heart, which was rumored to be difficult to obtain. It’s also the best product.
At the very least, you should be able to take down the strongest of dragons.
‘They even made sure that that information wasn’t revealed yet… ‘
I don’t know what happened. There is no news anywhere that the dragon has been captured.
A major event that has occurred recently is the disappearance of the Demonic Sutra of the Moon and the spread of the Demon Sutra of the Water.
And there are a total of three branches of the world tree distributed on the market.
‘Of these, the most likely one is the disappearance of the demonic spirit of the moon… ‘
However, Wol’s Demon Lord is the weakest Demon Lord. It didn’t make sense for there to be this much dragon heart there.
‘In the end, all I found out was that the companion I came with was an academy cadet. ‘It would be better to just move on.’
Perhaps because he had a high level, he was protecting himself well.
His colleague was worse than him, so at least he could see. The academy student ID card was in the inside pocket.
Of course, it didn’t really matter.
Geumtapju immediately started discussing with Butapju.
“Then now. What should I do to get my lovely niece’s attention?”
“The Golden Tower is below the emperor, so if you don’t reveal that you really have a Dragon Heart, there is a possibility that you won’t be interested in the Golden Tower.”
“Then, what is the incident of Wol’s demonic disappearance that is currently kept confidential?”
“People around me don’t know who did that. Therefore, even if there is no clear information, you may not think it is very important.”
“Then who is the one who obtained branches of the World Tree from the elves and sold them?”
“I wouldn’t really prefer that because it could cause friction with the elves. What Her Highness Alice wants is current talent. Or is it a factor that could lead to the downfall of Her Majesty the First Princess?”
“Even if it is clearly a fair transaction, if it goes too far, it may violate political neutrality. What would Arthur say?”
The Golden Tower is a magic tower created by the imperial family to fight against the magic tower of the Republic of Magic.
That is why Geumma Tower cannot be involved in internal politics. This means focusing on magic research rather than politics.
‘Of course, I am aware of it. ‘You shouldn’t do it too openly.’
Apart from that thought, I couldn’t think of a good way.
If you want to be attracted to the princess, the easiest way is to support her.
Because Geumma Tower had to remain neutral for now.
“Hmm… Then this would be best.”
“What do you mean?”
“Call Frazer.”
“You mean Archduke Fraser?”
“Uh. I wanted to ask you to pay a little more attention to my nephew.”
With those words, the Geumtapju activated the communication magic tool that contacted Archduke Fraser.
The vice-tap owner was also unable to know about the conversation that took place between them.
==========
After visiting the Golden Pagoda, I folded the magical tools appropriately and put them in my bag.
I’ve been on the plane about 4 or 5 times already, so I’m getting used to it.
“I used a space transfer magic circle or a super luxurious automatic carriage… Thanks to you, many people with no money can now ride on airplanes.”
“This is the cheapest and fastest. The only thing faster than a flying ship that moves in a straight line without road restrictions is a space transfer magic circle. That’s a bit expensive. At most it lasts 5 hours.”
“5 hours is a fucking long time, you crazy bastard.”
To the flying ship Settler, where there is no need to talk much.
From there, he boarded an automatic carriage borrowed (with Theseus’ money) and headed to the Academy.
When we arrived at the academy, we decided to separate and head to our respective dormitories.
I could see the commotion around the Black Building, my dormitory, from far away.
When I got closer and checked, I was able to see that it was worse than I imagined.
“Abraxas Mentutihotep, who committed sexual misconduct, must be explained!”
“Doesn’t it prick your conscience that you came first in the performance evaluation alone!”
“Give up that position yourself!”
“What did you do that the Academy said nothing about such denial!”
“Are you so scared that you can’t come out? Come out proudly and fight us!”
Some cadets were demanding an explanation from me in front of my dormitory.
It was a kind of protest.
I haven’t been there all this time.
I guess they don’t know that I’m behind them.
I walked through them and headed towards the dormitory door.
“Uh… ?”
“What… ? It wasn’t here… ? So what we did was… Anyway!”
They were momentarily taken aback when I appeared from behind.
“Abraxas, explain! Why are you eliminated at the same time and still in first place?”
Soon they will come to their senses again and protest.
A lot of people gathered together and asked me for an explanation.
I wondered if it was so unfair to get first place.
Looking at people’s expressions, there weren’t that many people who were really angry.
‘If you think about it, it’s true that I survived until 10th place, so even in the worst case scenario, I would end up in 10th place… Getting angry like that… ‘
Their facial expressions.
their thoughts.
I was able to gain confidence based on my experience in Korea.
And based on confidence, we also came up with a plan to deal with it right away.
In order to put it into practice, I went to a reasonably high place. With a solemn expression, he played the role of someone who seemed to have decided on something.
“Then, I will begin to explain the series of events here.”
The incident was explained. His expression remained serious.
He announces it to the other person with a gloomy expression, as if he is about to apologize for everything.
Everyone focuses on me.
At that time, the attention of a little over 100 people was focused.
“That’s the end.”
I left my seat with just those words.
Everyone is dumbfounded and looks at me with shaking eyes.
Some people are seriously considering whether there is a problem with their eardrums.
Of course, if you doubt it, nothing will change. Because there is only one truth anyway.
Deadly death, explanation no show.
By giving up on explanations, the Buntangs are left with nothing to say.
