Became the Idiot Young Master Who Tormented the Main Character - Chapter 86



86. The Back and the Truth (3)

“It appears that Hedy Marigold will not be able to join us on this mission.”

“…yes?”

“yes?”

It’s shocking news.

At Iris’s notice, I made eye contact with Hedy for a moment, then asked Iris.

“Why?”

“Something strange has happened.”

Iris sighed and looked at the documents she was holding.

“An elder dragon appeared in the wyvern nest.”

After hearing that, I couldn’t help but wonder.

‘A dragon has appeared…?’

Dragons are extremely personal beings.

Generally, they do not appear in places where their lower race, such as wyverns, are present.

What if the wyverns were invading the dragon’s territory and fighting?

They have high intelligence, so they don’t bother to invade the territory of wyverns, who move only by instinct without intelligence, and cause trouble.

I left Hedi still dumbfounded and asked Iris.

“What kind of dragon is it?”

“They say it’s a dragon with red scales that spits flames.”

“Then it must be the Red Dragon Skasha.”

“…! How do you know that, Confucius?”

As you know.

I used to play Dragon Raid a lot when I was growing my character and sucking up loot.

Among them were the Earth Dragon, Water Dragon, and Red Dragon… The most annoying and powerful one was the Red Dragon Skasha.

“I know a lot about dragons because I’ve read a lot of books about them before.”

I gave Iris a brief explanation and then continued.

“If it were a normal wyvern, they would be scared by the sight of the dragon and flee towards the empire… I guess.”

“Yes. The difficulty of the mission has increased drastically. Originally, it was a mission to subdue a few individuals that escaped from their nests and maintain security along the border, but now we have to deal with a large number of wyverns and may also have to escape from an elder dragon that may appear at any time.”

“Certainly, it has become a lot more dangerous.”

It did get dangerous though.

After hearing Iris’ whole story, I felt a little relieved.

Iris saw me nodding silently and thought I was giving up and accepting, so she spoke to me.

“I don’t know if Miss Hedy got into the three-star, but this time it really was a shame.”

“No, I don’t regret it.”

I asked further.

“Iris, what is the average level of the Imperial special forces participating this time?”

“They are all 4 stars or higher. You could say that 4 stars is the last line of defense to protect yourself in times of need.”

“Well, then if it’s 4 stars, then that problem can be solved.”

Iris looks puzzled.

“What are you talking about?”

“Iris, look closely at Hedy.”

“… … ?”

Hedy flinches at the sudden focus of attention.

“Why are you suddenly asking Miss Hedy…?”

and.

Iris, who was watching Hedi absentmindedly because of my words.

Soon, he saw Hedi and opened his eyes wide in surprise.

“What, what is this…?”

You won’t believe it.

Honestly, I couldn’t believe it at first either.

I just trained her in the same way I did, using the spirit tablets and potions I received from the Night Crow. Her growth rate was beyond my imagination.

“Is this possible…?”

“I was surprised at first too.”

“… … .”

Hedy shyly avoids our gaze, grabs my collar and won’t let go.

At times like this, I felt like I was in a young, fifteen-year-old state.

I spoke to Iris, who was still staring blankly at Hedy.

“So when do we leave?”

***

“Eww-!”

Bang!

Tia was dazed again today.

Despite already having dozens of bandages stuck to my knees.

Even she herself was amazed at how she fell and hurt herself again in a place where there was no bandage.

“Ugh… It’s embarrassing, no one saw this, right…?”

When Tia looked around, fortunately there was no one passing by nearby.

Maybe because the last semester is over?

Most of the students were hanging out with their friends or staying in the library until the semester was over.

It was a quiet street in Ganghwa-dong.

“Siando, did you go out to play with your friends…?”

Tia thought it was thanks to Cyan that she got a perfect score on the final exam.

I guess it’s because I don’t remember anything from the middle.

I thought that Cian would carry me on his back while I was unconscious and save me from the fairy’s tears.

“I would like to say thank you….”

Recently, Tia has been walking around the swordsmanship club’s lecture hall often.

Sian disappeared without a word… When I woke up in the infirmary, he was nowhere to be seen, and since then, he hasn’t sent me a single stitch, so I wonder what happened.

Tia was secretly upset, but she thought it was because she had fainted and become a burden, and she looked gloomy.

“But… I have to repay you somehow! It’s all thanks to Si-an that I don’t have to go to Class D!”

It was at that time that I was walking around the swordsmanship department’s lecture hall to find Sian again.

-How stupid. Wouldn’t it be easy to find out by asking any student in the swordsmanship club?

“Whoa!”

-Bam!

Suddenly, I was startled by a sound in my head and fell over again.

“Whoa, whoa, whoa, it’s scary!! I can hear it again!!”

-Tsk tsk, you still haven’t accepted my existence, Contractor. Didn’t you say that this body is a spirit?

“T-That’s a lie! I didn’t even make a contract with a spirit, how could you…! And spirits can’t speak! You’re clearly a ghost…!”

-How many times do I have to say that the spirits of the Supreme Being can speak?

“I’ve never heard of that! Ugh… I fell so many times that I think something’s wrong with my head… ? Eek, what do I do now… .”

-… … .

Tia stood up, sobbing. Soon, she felt someone approaching.

“Dude, you have to get up quickly… .”

The person approaching passes Tia quickly.

Then, Tia was about to walk again to find Sian.

‘Even if that’s true! If you do that, Cyan-‘

‘Are you sure? Cyan-‘

Tia’s ears perked up.

“… Didn’t the person who just passed by say that he was Si-an?”

It was certain.

I couldn’t hear what was said, but his name was mentioned in Cyan.

“Okay, just a moment-!”

Tia limped along, holding onto her injured leg, as the two who had just passed by followed suit.

Since Tia was timid and her voice was as quiet as a mosquito, of course those two couldn’t hear it.

Tia continued to follow them with difficulty.

.

.

.

.

“Knock knock knock!”

Tia was distressed by the wafting macho smell.

The two who followed him entered a deserted alley, and inside they appeared to be smoking macho cigarettes.

“Knock knock! Ugh, ugh… I’ll have to ask after you finish smoking macho… .”

For Tia, whose body was weak, the smell of macho was so strong that it made her feel like vomiting.

Of course, smoking macho is a stimulant that helps increase magical power, but if you just inhale the smoke from smoking it, it is not only of no help, but is also bad for the respiratory tract.

“Knock knock knock!”

Tia sat with her back to the wall of the alley, coughing with her hand.

and.

Soon, the two of them entered the alley and began to hear each other’s conversation.

‘So what’s the point?’

‘Oh my, you still don’t understand this profound content?! That’s why the Baron is…’

‘If you keep talking, I’ll pretend this never happened.’

‘Ah, no, wait a minute! Even if you wait! Oh, I understand. I’ll explain it a little more easily.’

“… … .”

Tia accidentally overheard their conversation.

How many minutes passed?

Once again, the topic of Xi’an began to come up in their conversation.

“uh…?”

But something was strange.

“Isolation? Pull down? Cyan…?”

The flow of the conversation was one of discussing how to screw over the city.

Tia’s actions were foolish and stupid, but Tia was not stupid.

Even just listening for a moment, you could tell they had negative feelings toward Cian.

Tia realized that this was not the situation for her.

But I thought I should listen more, at least for the sake of Xi’an.

Soon they began to explain the detailed operation.

‘First, gather the evidence and give it to Miss Aria and Miss Lucy-‘

***

I thought I was going to ride a carriage to the Wyvern Nest, which borders the Romant Coast Continent.

-Various.

But unexpectedly, our carriage stopped early.

“Please get off.”

After getting off the carriage following Iris.

As we raised our heads, a vast, wide, and tall tower filled our view.

It has an antique design and looks like a pointed castle.

The entrance to the tower was blocked by two heavily armed guards.

Iris approaches them and hands them something.

It was a nameplate that proved that one was the Sword Master of the Duchy of Brace.

“Confirmed.”

As soon as they saw the nameplate, they bowed their heads deeply and opened the entrance.

‘As expected, Sword Masters are considered a noble status in other empires as well.’

Whether noble or not, their military power is enough to become the power of a nation.

In some ways, it was a natural treatment.

Iris spoke to us as we walked down the hallway of the tower.

“This is Magic Tower. When crossing the border, we will use the large moving magic circle facility here.”

“Is the special forces of the Lyanna Empire with you?”

“Yes. Since we are moving a lot of people, it will take time to prepare the magic circle, so we will use a carriage when we return.”

Finally, we arrived at the door of a room.

The sign had a vague description that its use was strictly prohibited to anyone other than those involved.

If you get caught, you’ll be in a heavy situation or something.

Iris, not caring, pushes the door open.

Okay then.

In a large room bathed in purple from the magic circle drawn on the floor.

“… You’re here, I’ve been waiting for you.”

A man, who seemed to be walking around with about 50 people, nodded to Iris.

He was the commander of the special forces.
