He enjoyed a debauched and reckless life.

I have never been this raw in my life.

I became alarmed at the sight of myself falling apart day by day.

‘Last week, I wasn’t even wearing any clothes.’

Many thoughts came to mind.

─First of all, a feeling of betrayal.

My life was ruined by Shir.

Jur’s fatherly love only carefully concealed that fact.

What did I do for Shir, only to be rewarded with something like this? Is this hypnosis?

Sur communicates with Venus.

I know I came back to life, and now I’ve kidnapped Lexi.

At the same time, I felt my love for Lexi slowly cooling off.

It is only now that it has started to cool down naturally over time.

As Seth said, all of this was Venus’ brainwashing.

After losing both of them, I had no real purpose in life.

Other than killing Harold and finding Jool.

I was living a truly shabby life.

“Shall we live together?”

When I throw it, Seth’s ears flutter.

Green eyes rolled around and looked at me.

“They said they wouldn’t live on top of each other.”

“Would it be okay for Seth to quit his position as the top owner and live under me?”

“Are you crazy? Without even a single thing.”

Seth chuckles cynically and puts on his pince-nez.

“Are people important, or money?”

“Of course, money is important too.”

I think this place is just like Earth.

It may be possible as long as you present an idea that can make money.

For example, something like a steam engine.

“What do you think about factories and trains?”

“Oh, that? It’s useless.”

It was an unexpected answer.

America today was able to grow because of trains.

Moreover, Pangea is a ‘supercontinent’.

All continents are attached to one land.

Of course, on such a huge continent, the introduction of trains would be desperately needed, right?

“Why?”

“There are many people who are uncomfortable.”

“That’s bad. Let’s live well together.”

“First of all, small merchants and artisans will be on the streets, so we need to come up with a plan and then create it. Thanks to the great saint, the unemployment rate is high due to the abundance of young and old people. Factories and trains?”

Seth snorted and glared at me provocatively.

I have nothing to say about this either.

“Disputes are also a problem. If we, as a neutral country, draw a line with the UN, there will be protests from Drekar, and vice versa.”

“···Really?”

“Okay. If someone proposes first, you can respond positively, but the proposal must come from a neutral country or someone must give in at least a step.”

People who take care of their own food are hindering the development of civilization.

Then I remembered what I had to do.

“I am going to kill Harold.”

“For what?”

“Because I can’t forgive.”

Seth reads the report to the end and concludes it with his signature.

Only then did Seth take a small breath and his green eyes looked at me.

“You are at the mercy of a servant until the end.”

“That doesn’t matter anymore. But he must die.”

Seth nods.

“Okay. Harold is a killer.”

“Now, that’s the only clear goal I have.”

I want to find Jool right away, but I don’t know where he is.

His love for Lexi seemed to be cooling off little by little.

It wasn’t a fateful love like I thought.

Naturally, the law of elimination cried out for revenge to take precedence.

Although his love for Shirna Rexi wavered, his desire for revenge on Harold remained firm.

─This was my truth.

“So are you planning to join the military? Want to become a knight?”

“Yes?”

Are you planning on going to kill Harold instead of enlisting in the army?

Seth’s eyes narrowed.

“You idiot. If you have something in mind, you have to make a plan. How do you plan to meet the king? The newly built castle even has traces of a secret passage. The heroes of the battlefield who retired will eat the blood you thoughtlessly sprinkled and come back to guard the king!”

Is that the problem?

“Well, let’s kill them all.”

“Before you released the Precious Blood, the strongest active force in the world was clearly the Hundred Year Knight. But not now. From priests, mercenaries, hunters… All retired people have been reinstated! Once you become a target, you really have no place to hide except here?!”

I guess that wouldn’t be bad either?

“I can block things like powers, and mercenaries and hunters aren’t my opponents, right?”

“Senior priests download sacred energy. Your ability doesn’t cancel the power, it prevents it from being used. Do you think you can overcome hunters and mercenaries who have been fighting on the battlefield for a hundred years?”

Seth’s eyes were full of worry and concern as he looked at me with a nervous voice. Oh my, our cute Seth.

“Don’t worry.”

I hugged Seth, put my hand in his underwear, and played with his hand.

As if he didn’t like that, Seth looked at me with venomous eyes.

“Sihyeon Lee…!”

“Then, can you tell me how to use a talented set that will leave anyone listening with admiration?”

Seth was speechless.

Look at this.

There is no such thing, right?

Just like before, straight ahead…

“···Become a subordinate knight of Habstenburg. If you enlist through the knight selection process and become a knight at the top! Eligible to join the Royal Knights in just one year! ···Given. Afterwards, he received an honor from the king…”

“It’s so funny to read an article after 1 year.”

“A country that has fallen into militarism―hey. In that way, people are encouraged to take up the sword. If you take care of Gukrokdo… if you just take off the ticket─ you can get ten gold coins a month…! When you retire… 5 coins every month… Ah huh?!”

“4,000 solidus? Really?”

Two to four gold coins is what an average person earns in a month. Are you giving me 10 coins for that?

“Should I just write an article?”

“···Don’t be damned!”

How cocky.

“How can I become a knight…?!”

It is said that the reason Seth was able to become the youngest Third Brother Dragonia was because of his passion for pleasure. To realize the structure of the body and fall into the swamp of pleasure.

And, it seems that the structure of the brain has been distorted.

To get a better head. For fuller sensitivity. For more intense pleasure. It’s easier said than done, but not everyone can do it.

A creature’s perception, thoughts, motor nerves, and reflexes all come from the brain through learning, but distorting that structure means you cease to be yourself.

Even when I see the food I enjoyed, the person I loved, or when I return home, I cannot feel the emotions I was supposed to feel.

For the sake of pleasure, I threw away the life I had built up.

It seems that there was nothing he could do because he had developed a tolerance to drugs.

He brought his mouth to Seth’s ear, who was panting.

“What can I do for you?”

“All you need is formal armor and an ID card…!”

Because he gave up being himself, he was able to achieve things faster than anyone else.

Is that why?

Seth never turns down something that feels good.

From noble pleasures to peripheral pleasures.

“Hiuuugh…?!”

“So you have to pass there to become a knight? If you pass at the top, you can join the Royal Knights, and the Royal Knights receive the king’s decorations upon joining?”

“That’s right!”

I think it was a good idea to ask this person.

He is a great help, both then and now.

“The bottom line is that you can’t miss out on being the chief, right?”

“Why…? I can’t even do that…?”

Seth looks up at me with a sneer.

“No way.”

How can I lose to newbies?

He rolled his fingers in response to the burning lust in his eyes.

* * * * * *

As time passed, the time came to leave the Magic Tower.

Perhaps because of my closed life, most of the connections that the counterfeit had built had fallen away, and the only people who greeted me were a few faceless Dragonia and Charlotte.

“Please take good care of yourself outside. If someone you don’t know gives you interesting advice, always consult with us.”

“Thank you. Leevali, take care of yourself too.”

Serbotaurus nods.

This is because a 14-year-old with a young mental age is leaving the nest where he has lived his entire life in the body of an adult.

“If you have anything to discuss, you can come by anytime. We will always be waiting for research subjects.”

“You are no longer a research subject.”

I pouted and acted until the end, pretending to be disappointed.

Charlotte ends up looking genuinely sorry.

“Dwin.”

“Yes. Charlotte is doing well too.”

The elf next to Levalli folds her arms and shakes her head.

“Anyway, the owner of the tower is too good. The person I spent 14 years with is leaving and not even coming to meet me.”

“It’s okay. Because he is a very busy person.”

Seth is waiting outside.

Because I have something to hand over to me.

“I’m trying to catch up with people who are busy, so I’ll just leave.”

I bowed to Charlotte and turned around and left.

I don’t understand it, but it is said that Habstenburg demands dignity from knights who stand at the forefront of warfare.

That is why individuals must prepare armor that suits their dignity.

It is said to be the result of taking into account the fact that uniformly customized armor may not fit each individual or species.

The funny thing is, that rule came into existence 13 years ago.

That was when I blew up Heindeer.

I guess he didn’t like it when he formed an order of knights made entirely of humans, and then had one of his castles turned upside down.

“Are you here?”

Seth was waiting for me, wearing his usual white robe.

At my feet were full of weapons for me to use.

“Wow. It’s good.”

It was an armor that blended perfectly into nature.

With just a little bit of camouflage, you’ll never be discovered even in the woods.

“It’s deep-sea whale skin armor.”

I don’t know what a deep-sea whale is, but looking at Seth’s proud face, I can tell it must be a great hide.

“What are the dimensions?”

“I didn’t mess with you every day for no reason.”

Seth smirked and held out leather armor to me.

Well… the vambraces fit perfectly.

Others are made to fit my body perfectly.

It’s the perfect armor for someone who can’t build muscle anymore.

“Good. It’s perfect.”

Due to the nature of the leather armor, it had no choice but to look like a thief, but the animal and eagle patterns engraved here and there to avoid being seen that way just felt miserable.

‘The people who make it also have a hard time.’

You have to engrave patterns on armor, which is a tool of war.

“Must be inspected once a month. I’ll visit you at the end of every month, so make sure to dedicate one day to me.”

“Okay. I’ll just go now.”

“Go away quickly.”

Seth turned away coldly.

“Thank you so much for your help.”

Seth turns around and shakes his ears. A very insincere goodbye was said.

There is no need to rush.

This is because recruitment of articles takes place every quarter.

‘In the meantime, let’s relax at home.’

I leisurely walked towards Bangora.
