Grand Duke of the Heibern House - Grand Duke of the Heibern House chapter 89
<Chapter 89>
It was a short explanation, but the great mage’s intuition was inferring many situations.
duel.
Since it was a sacred confrontation and the rules of the academy, it would have been covered with pretty wrapping paper, but in the end, it would be just ‘savagery’ from the point of view of the powerless cadets.
Conventionally, when a duel is concluded, no one asks each other whether they are alive or dead.
Of course, from the point of view of powerless cadets, a duel is a word that is equated with ‘death’ or ‘accident’.
Royalty and nobility, knights, commoners, serfs, etc.
Like life in the kingdom, the ranks of the cadets of the airline here are also living in an appropriate position and adapting.
In effect, it runs like a small kingdom.
But Ruin’s doubts did not end there.
“It’s unreasonable from the point of view of the magic cadets.”
Due to the nature of interpersonal warfare, duels are extremely unfavorable to wizards.
Moreover, considering the fact that the number of knight cadets was overwhelmingly large, the embarrassing situation of the magic cadets was drawn in front of their eyes.
“Well, it’s no different on the ground. Lemadel is a country of knights in the first place. Actually, we magic cadets are competing with each other, but the reality is that they are non-mainstream when you look at the academy as a whole.”
Shiron, who had been listening, asked in an annoyed voice.
“Why does the academy allow such savage duels?”
Daphne, who was thinking deeply, spoke her mind.
“There is a unique culture unique to citizens who live on the airline. All resources such as land, food, and water are more limited than on the ground. It means that this city has structural limitations that inevitably lead to numerous conflicts.”
“There is a space shifter, why?”
Luin’s calm voice continued.
“There must be a limit to the amount of goods transported. No matter how many space movements we have experienced, there will be only a few places. Magic catalysts capable of driving space movement are very rare and cannot be obtained simply with money.”
“That’s true, and you know it well from experience, right? Airline’s thorough procedures.”
Ruin nodded heavily.
There was also a physical limitation of having to secure supplies only with space movement units, but rather than that, such administrative limitations would act as more obstacles.
Since all imported materials must be thoroughly inspected, the flow rate is inevitably slow.
While Ruin and his party were having a complicated conversation, the cold voice of an administrative agent was heard.
“Cadets from the Royal Academy, please enter.”
“ah! All right!”
Severon, who witnessed the brutal work of that administrative agent, was fully disciplined.
Daphne said there wouldn’t be a big problem, but Ruin, who is working as an undercover, is also nervous.
Upon entering the interior of the Registered Security Agency, three or four Security Agency officers were sitting at a desk.
Ruin and his party sat down one by one in the chairs lined up neatly as instructed by the administrative staff.
“Chiron Maenti Medenia.”
The security agency official, who was checking documents while adjusting his glasses, opened his mouth again with a nonchalant face.
“How many heirlooms are in the Medenia family, and what is the purpose of each one?”
“A total of three. Yuciella’s ring, the Western Heaven’s cloak, and the heat seat of mad flames. But our family’s Noble Phantasms are the vision of a sage, so you dare to ask such a thing?”
Confirming Shiron’s attitude, the security agency official smiled faintly.
“Where is the Medenia family’s reliquary?”
“Crazy, what tricks?”
Shiron, who jumped up, was glaring at the security agency official with eyes burning like fire.
At that moment, the security officer was convinced that he was a direct descendant of the Medenia family.
“Edark. Give that cadet a permit.”
“All right.”
This time, another female officer from the Registration Security Agency called Lilia.
“Lyria Dreamit Abrel.”
When Lyria’s nonchalant gaze turned to her.
“Tell me the family legend of Avrel.”
“Leap without joy. go through the pain Search for the truth even in the face of extinction.”
It is a family saying of the Arbrel family that even the servants of the family memorize.
Lyria felt like an idiot at the Security Agency trying to weed out spies with just these questions.
However, at her next question, Lilia stiffened.
“Tell me what the extinction in the legend means.”
“… … .”
It was a shame and a long-standing weakness that the family never wanted to reveal.
However, knowing that there is a different meaning to the ‘destruction’ of the family name, doesn’t that mean that the woman also knows?
Lyria silently bit her lip and covered her heart with the palm of her hand.
Only then did the female executive stare at the administrative agent.
“Pass. Give the license to the Lyria cadet.”
This was followed by interrogation of the cadets in turn.
As Daphne said, there was no great difficulty in getting the permit issued.
However, the cadets had to repeatedly admire the information power of the registration security agency.
From nob le mt l. co m
From environmental factors such as family secrets to human factors that were impossible to know unless the person concerned, they were meticulously grasped.
Now all that’s left are Daphne, Ruin, and Louise.
“One is already a citizen… … .”
At that time, the administrative agent, who was swinging around Daphne with a magic wand in his hand, stared at the officers.
“There is a subspace.”
Then, the executives ordered Daphne to open the subspace.
An administrative agent who looked inside lowered his head slightly and informed the officers that there was nothing wrong.
“Then next, Louin Ryan… … Suck!”
A female security officer corrected her glasses with a shocked expression on her face.
Her hands holding the papers began to tremble.
It was rare for a colleague to react like this, so all the other executives flocked to him.
The complexion of the executives who were examining the documents together changed completely.
Let them all stand up in unison and try to be polite.
“stop.”
The cold and gloomy voice of Ruin made the officers freeze.
Ruin could tell what was written on that document even without looking.
‘He looks like a f*cking old man.’
It is unlikely that he will be able to avoid the sharp eyes of the Registration Security Agency with lax methods such as disguised identity.
In the end, the sage Egios must have informed them of his true identity, the identity of the Grand Duke of the House of Hibern.
“… … It won’t leak out, will it?”
The executives nodded frantically at Ruin’s staring eyes.
“No, of course! The Registration ‘Security’ Office thoroughly manages the personal information of citizens!”
As a guarantor of Ruin’s identity, the sage’s seal was stamped.
Even if something happens, the responsibility lies with the wise men of the Mage Tower, so there is no need to make a big deal anymore.
However, the contents of the document were different from Ruin’s prediction.
A great clan in play.
If the wise man’s words are true, the being standing in front of them is a walking disaster itself.
“Then it’s over. When can I get my luggage back?”
“Choi, I will finish the inspection as soon as possible! Please wait two days!”
“where?”
“If you inform us of the location of the inn you will be staying at, we will send your luggage directly!”
“I get it.”
The female executive handed over the papers with trembling hands.
As she looked through Louise’s papers like that, she had no choice but to stiffen up once again.
‘Ha, identity guarantee for the Head of Hedeian?’
The seal of Hedayan, another wise man of Lemadel, is clearly stamped.
Who the hell are these guys, so that the two famous sages of the kingdom simultaneously act as guarantors?
In the end, the cadets were able to engrave magic runes on the back of their hands and leave the registration security office.
Of course, everyone’s gaze had no choice but to turn to Ruin.
Severon asked with a hopeless heart.
“I’m sure you’re royalty… … ?”
They are executives of the Registration Security Agency who did not budge even in front of the direct descendants of the famous sorcerers, the Abrel family and the Medenia family.
It was clearly an attitude reserved for royalty, or at least a noble family of knights.
In this Lemadel Kingdom, the status of the masters of swordsmanship and the masters of sorcery was the difference between heaven and earth.
Shiron wrapped his arms around Severon’s shoulders.
“Did you not hear what Ruin said earlier? A friend waits until he speaks for himself. someday you’ll find out Don’t be in a hurry.”
Ruin looked at him as if he was surprised at the adultness that was not like Shiron.
“Don’t look at me with those kind eyes. Strangely, sometimes you look like a grandfather.”
At that time, Daphne’s expression changed to nervous.
“for a moment! To get an inn… … We have no money, right?”
“money? Any problem? Should I pay after I get my luggage?”
Daphne was even more restless.
“How many are there? Everyone tell me!”
“With 200 li?”
“I’m about 150 li?”
“250 li and.”
“About 2 ri left.”
Everyone’s heads jerked back toward Ruin.
No, it’s 2 lirang for a subject who is hiding an unusual identity?
“Teo, it’s not enough! You’ll have to get at least two rooms, but even for that room alone, you’ll have to pay at least 400 li! Besides, if you add up the food for two days, the cost of bath water, and the rental of bedding—”
“No, what is so expensive?”
Considering the average price of Lemadel Night Castle in the capital city, even with two rooms, it was enough money to live for about 15 days.
But a whopping 200 lirang per night?
“No matter how expensive the price is, it’s a little harsh that there is a difference of more than ten times.”
“Apart from the price of water, what is the cost of renting bedding?”
The cadets clapped their tongues at the unimaginable waterside and the frivolous hospitality of the airline.
“You have to pay the cleaning fee and there is a set tip.”
“Wow Mr. It’s almost at the level of a robbery, isn’t it?”
Lyria said.
“Then, why don’t you tell the dean of the current situation and ask for help?”
Daphne shook her head.
“Even if you try to communicate magic, there is no transmission catalyst! It’s all in my luggage!”
“Magic communication center—”
“I don’t have money right now. Money! Did you see that the Magic Communication Center accepts trauma?”
Shiron intervenes.
“No, then prove your identity… … .”
Shiron, who was saying that, immediately frowned.
Come to think of it, there is no evidence in his body to prove the status of his family.
As long as they couldn’t get their luggage back, they were no different from commoners.
“What can I do?”
I never thought I would experience the life of a helpless commoner like this here.
Seeing the cadets’ uneasy eyes, Ruin said calmly.
“Are there any places on Airline that sell precious metals or magic materials?”
“yes… … ?”
Daphne’s embarrassed expression
“It’s even better if it’s a place that handles stolen goods.”
“Is there? But why?”
“Guide me.”
The cadets with dazed faces followed Ruin and Daphne.

Gustas, who was in charge of the stolen property trade at the Lineo Guild, was tsking his tongue as if he was disappointed.
It’s been a long time since I’ve been a guest, so I was looking forward to it.
It was because young boys and girls who looked young were standing around wearing basic clothes provided by the kingdom.
The kids who became citizens of Bona Mana God Airlines.
Of course, expectations were close to zero.
Still, since I was visiting as a guest, I had to be polite.
“So, what do our young friends want to sell?”
Severon looked at Ruin.
In fact, if it wasn’t for the weight that Ruin usually showed, he would never have followed this dangerous place.
Ruin pulled the chair across from Gustas and asked coldly.
“I’ll ask you a few questions first.”
“hmm… … ?”
Are you a member of an aristocratic family?
As soon as you sit down, you talk half-heartedly.
Gustas laughed like it was funny.
“Tell me.”
Ruin asked, pointing at the guild mark hanging behind Gustas.
“What is the limit of stolen goods that you guys can afford?”
“Puha!”
Gustas was so dumbfounded that all he could do was laugh.
It is a guild that openly trades stolen goods on this terrifyingly secure airline.
A boy who dared to treat this Lineo Guild as a local store, which has ties to the royal family as well as high-ranking aristocratic families.
“Are you going to take out some dragon hearts?”
That moment.
Geeeing-
Ruin’s sub-space Hellagea tears open the space and opens the entrance.
Luin put his hand in it.
Soon he took out one of the most insignificant rolling objects in Hellagea.
“under? Were you a magician? what a great thing… … Huh!”
What Ruin took out was a jewel the size of a human head.
widely-
“Ask again.”
Ruin smiled whitely at Gustas, who was trembling all over.
“Can you pay?”
