4.

When I arrived at the restaurant, all of the restaurant's kitchen staff and guests were already seated. Forden said as he looked at me entering the entrance.

"You're a little late. Go ahead and sit down."

"Yes."

I sat down at the flat table looking for an empty seat. Next to his brother Riddle, Chesha sits opposite.

Chesha, who suddenly made eye contact with me, slightly hardened her expression and avoided looking. I'm a little embarrassed because I thought I wouldn't see her again until I went to the Eutland family.

The air in the restaurant was really subtle.

My brothers and sisters, who had despised me so far, looked uncomfortable, and adults like Poden and Evel seemed to be looking at me as proud.

In such a complex atmosphere, Elbio opened the door for dialogue.

"I saw our prospective son-in-law's duel well. That was a great performance. I envy you for having such a son.”

"Haha! Elbio, you have an eye for Iden as your daughter's marriage partner. I am in a position of father, but I have not recognized my son's potential, so I am rather ashamed."

Elbio and Forden, the two families' householders, painted each other's faces as much as they could.

"Well, there were quite a few people who wondered when I pointed Iden at Chesha. I'm proud that the choice has been reevaluated even now.”

"Isn't that all your foresight?"

What kind of foresight.

It is clear why he arranged a marriage meeting with Iden, setting aside Litten, who is likely to be the heir to the great-great-

I decided it based on my mother's lineage.

There was no mention of the original or set book, but it is clear that the mother of Iden, Nevia, is not an ordinary fairy-like half-breed. The blood of the high elves, the high elves, who are born with mysterious powers.

To explain the basis of this speculation, it should go back nearly 20 years from now.

At that time, the Kingdom of Croatia sought to improve relations with the elves of the Algebra, which arranged a marriage between the heirs of the secular Stroke Kingdom and Young-ae under the rule of the elf power. Naturally, the spirit is the mother of Iden, Nevia Liru Arieldi. As long as she is a bride-selected for diplomacy, it is clear that she has had the blood of a high-ranking elf even if she is of mixed blood.

The marriage union, though of all descent, became nominal in just a few months.

After the marriage of Poden and Nevia, a large mine of Ma Jeong-seok was found on the border between the Great Forest and the Kingdom, and the relationship between the two sides, which had been wondering if they would recover due to the dispute over ownership, was at its worst again.

Forden, who was chatting with Elbio, looked at me and coughed slightly.

"Hmm. I don't know if you've guessed, but it's to resolve the conflict that's been going on."

"What do you mean by conflict?"

When I asked, Poden spoke in a solemn tone.

"Lighton."

Litten, who was called by her father, looked at me with a chewed look. Looking at his face, which is marked with humiliation, makes me feel hollow.

That's for a while.

Soon he gave me a bitter smile, and to my surprise he bowed his head to me.

"I'm sorry about what I've done so far."

indeed

The atmosphere seems to have heard from his father, Poden.

With the victory over Julio, the cause to send me to the Liperta border has disappeared, so you're thinking of reconciling us as your next best bet.

The conflict between the heir-apparent eldest son and the second son with outstanding talent as the great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandfather would not have hoped for, and it was clear that Litten also realized that

In other words, the unfortunate side will bow down first before coming in.

I'm the blue-chip in their eyes now with the potential to grow into a continental girl-class powerhouse. It would not be wise for a successor to the country to lose a talent like me because of personal feelings.

I answered indifferently.

"I don't care much."

"·뭣뭣뭣뭣."

Ritten, shivering with shame at the remark, suddenly raised his head. He looks at me blankly as if it was a very unexpected answer.

"Didn't you hear? I don't care, Grand Duke."

"Go, thank you. I hope we can build a good relationship from now on."

Forden smiled at the sight.

To be honest, what Litten did is a bit offensive, but seeing Chesha's beauty sitting across from me, it's not to the point that I don't understand. More than anything else, I felt pity for Litten because I knew she was destined to die in less than four years.

More important than that is the uncle, Evel.

[Level:53/54]

[Physical strength:17][muscle:20][Personnel:13]

[Magic:14][Mental:11][Sense:08]

[Shin:03]

[Characteristics:Detective (S+),Thorough Will (A) and Three Other Types]

[Technical:Stroke Dunggeomsul (S), Croissant Sword and Polaris (A), Stroke Girder (B+), Gongguk Parktuksul (B) and five others]

[Explanation: 67 years old, human race. He is a member of the current Continental Divide Girl and is well-known as one of the strongest knights in the North.]

You have the ability to name a dozen girls.

The only difference from the Evel Stroke sheet in the main film is that it has only one low muscle strength. It may be natural to think of age, but at this point, I guess growth was already over.

First of all, the characteristics of "Supervision (S+)" were noticeable. This is an evolutionary characteristic of the "Geumsul Genius (A)", which is given only to masters who freely use the heavy sword technique. There are "Detective (S+)" and "S+" of the appropriate balance type, which are specialized for the ever-changing inspection by the characteristics of peer favor and exchange.

For your information, the last king of this field is "Geomsin (Ex). However, it is a characteristic that cannot be obtained by ordinary methods, and it will not be seen until part four, so let's leave it out of the rice paddies.

One explanation is that the plus sign after the rating does not give you better performance than other features or techniques. + is simply a sign attached to a characteristic or technique that forms the core of the character.

It is literally a title.

The Harmony Psychology (C+) in my technical column is a good example. Compared to the al-Sigma airway or stroke airway, it is still low in grade, but it is firmly centered in my body, beating the two prominent airway.

I asked Evel.

"You wouldn't say you forgot the promise you had just before the duel, would you, uncle?"

"Hmm! You can't ignore a promise made by a knight in the North. So what do you want from me?"

"Struggle tensile." Please hand over the ownership of the goods to me."

““···!””

When I heard what I said, Evel, of course, everyone in the restaurant was very surprised. Only one person was an exception, and Elbio looked at me with interesting eyes.

The struggle seal is a symbol of honor given directly to the Continental Egel in the struggle church.

It is a seal with a special identification magic hanging on it, and the act of transferring it to another person after the agreement is interpreted as an intention to put the honor of the transferor on the line of honor.

In modern terms, it is a guarantee.

The less-than-seen Forden intervened.

"Iden. Wasn't that asking too much, though? You wouldn't be unaware of the importance of the object!"

I burst into laughter when I heard that.

"Too much demand? Isn't it too much to ask someone who's actually a knight of the feather to win a fat man who's only been holding the sword for four months?"

"That's..."

Speaking sarcastically, Forden quickly became a honeyed mute. He, too, helped Litten's runaway to demote me, so he wouldn't have a hundred mouths to say.

"You dared me to say that I would not be able to beat Lord Vas. I won against expectations. It's time to pay for it."

Evel sighed at my urging.

"I can't help it. A promise is a promise. For a formal handover, you have to send a separate signature to the Struggle Church, so it will take some time before the Struggle Seal is fully in your hands."

It was an unexpected harvest, so a smile spread around my mouth.

To be honest, I didn't expect much, but you're taking this.

After I had a hard time, the dinner went on in an awkward atmosphere. Having noticed a slight hint, I quickly emptied the bowl of rice and rose quietly from my seat.

When I left the restaurant, Chesha followed me and talked to me.

"Iden, I'll accept the offer from yesterday. Make a Clan or whatever you do, I'll follow you.”

"Oh, yeah?"

I answered with a puzzled look. I don't know what happened overnight, but it's a decision faster than I imagined.

There is a sudden shadow on her face.

"But my father won't allow me to leave the land.”

"Until you have a baby, you mean?"

"How do you know that?”

It is only his close relatives or some of his closest aides who know that Elbio is suffering from trial and error in eugenics. It's a surprise to her that I know a stain that even her old friend Forden doesn't know.

"As long as you like it. I'll take care of the problem myself. We have a card to try to negotiate with the Duke."

“·········”

As the story went so smoothly, Chesha looked as if possessed by a ghost. I grinned at her.

"I'll see you at your place in a month, then."

There was a lot to prepare before casting a ballot. Preparing to take over Chesha from the House of Eutland, as well as the things that must be done before leaving the country. To this end, I took full action after that day.

0.

The capital of the country, a forest outside of Recrolle.

While searching hard there with Linia, I found the entrance to the site that I had aimed for in a full half-day.

A pile of dirt is piled up around the stone gate. This is the trace of Estriel digging the ground in the process of finding the remains.

After seeing this, Linia opened her eyes wide.

"Hey, what the hell is this?"

"It's the ruins of the Mado Empire, the Bulsae Yeongmyo.”

The reason I'm here is, of course, to get the "heart of a firebird" in advance.

I am going to find the main character, Epio, and feed his heart at an earlier date than the original.

I just thought about eating it, but the heart of the firebird is an item that has had a decisive impact on the direction of Epio's growth in the original film. If I twist the original history too early, the benefits of my future knowledge will also disappear. It is necessary to obtain as much benefit as possible, but adjust the variables appropriately to the foreseeable extent.

"Sir, I'd like to ask you a question.”

"Talking on the way.”

"I've been thinking about it, but I think you've changed completely lately. "You suddenly show extraordinary talents in swordsmanship, you know about herbs you never heard of or seen in your life, and you often give orders that you can't understand..."

"You're saying you're better than you are now when you're a jerk?”

"No! Of course you look much better and more reliable now. I'm sure that's what other families think."

“·········”

"But you have grown up so suddenly that I'm a little worried about you as a full-time maid of honor who's been with you for a long time. If there's anything in it, don't hesitate to tell me. I'm the one who was asked by Nebia."

I almost cried.

Linia was the only person I had a good feeling for before I possessed her. Others will just be happy to see the hoodie rehabilitate, but she must have had a strong sense of incompatibility with her who has been looking at Eden all along.

This subordination is right next to it, but what is missing about Iden?

··· Apart from personal appreciation, it is clear that my outspoken actions are strangely reflected in other people's eyes.

It's none of my business whether they think I'm weird or not, but even my colleagues who will recruit me from now on shouldn't think so.

And I've come up with a way to justify my actions.

"Linia, I'll only tell you in advance, who's like a family. In fact, after the day I was hit in the head by the Grand Duke, I had a precognitive dream."

"Yes, a precognitive dream?"
