I Became a Madman in the Game - I Became a Madman in the Game chapter 133
Episode. 43 Laplace (2)
“Circle… … ?”
No, is that really a circle?
Alan swallowed and looked at Richard’s ring.
The surrounding mana was being sucked in from the ring that rotated violently.
‘How does Battenberg have a ring?’
I didn’t open the chest of every knight in the world and check it, but it was an unchanging truth that knights couldn’t have rings.
Conversely, the ringed mage also could not obtain the knight’s heart.
That was the rule of the world and the conventional wisdom.
Alan took a step closer to Richard.
His wide-eyed eyes focused only on the ring.
‘It’s not an ordinary ring. No, it doesn’t make sense from what was revealed outside of the body in the first place.’
The ring that rotates fiercely in front of you is truly unprecedented.
It was a new discovery that marked the long history of magic.
A deep interest flickered in Alan’s eyes.
But more than curiosity, there was something I had to check first.
“… … Are you going to teach Alyssa what peace is?”
“okay.”
“What do you think true peace is?”
peace.
Alan concluded that peace is a world where swords and magic are not needed.
A land like a blank slate where the seeds of power and strife have been wiped clean.
It took a long time for him to find his own answer.
“You’re asking something simple.”
However, Richard said that peace is just a simple thing.
“To me, Hor is peace.”
It was an answer that left my pulse unraveling, and I couldn’t even find the slightest hint of contemplation.
But Alan did not dare to refute that statement.
For some reason, I felt as if I had lost to Richard.
◈ ◈ ◈
Richard exchanged greetings with his party.
Now is the time to get away for a while.
“Wait in the Southern Garden with Mar, then come to Laplace Kingdom when the time comes. I will put in a message.”
He handed a note to Aaron, his henchman, and said.
“What is this?”
“This is a list of things you guys have to do. Read it when you get to the garden.”
While Richard and the others chatted, Alan watched them from a distance.
My mind was complicated.
No, it seemed like my heart was confused.
Hor is Peace
Those words caused ripples in Alan’s convictions.
‘Isn’t the presence or absence of swords and magic the difference between peace?’
When Alan tries to think for a while.
I felt many eyes.
Turning my head, I met eyes with Richard’s knights.
Ssueuk-
A young man and an old man who appeared to be lancers glared at Alan, pretending to cut his throat with their hands.
A boy resembling an orc crouched down and licked the dagger with his tongue.
The intent was clear.
– If you do nonsense to Richard, he will kill you.
It was only natural for the veins to pop up on Alan’s straight forehead.
“Sleep, stop. You guys get going.”
Richard appropriately cut off the atmosphere that had suddenly become ghastly.
Even while being pushed by that back, the young spearman did not take his eyes off Alan.
Gesture with two fingers spread out, pointing at his eyes and Alan.
Soon, Aaron held out until the very end and turned around.
“hahahaha! sorry. Because my party is so extreme.”
“… … If it weren’t for the followers who carried out Hor’s orders, they would have been burned at the stake.”
Alan swallowed his anger and used mana.
He had just made up his mind to head for Laplace Kingdom according to Richard’s plan.
Alyssa Marx wanted to become a follower of Hor, because Alan was the same.
Beep-
As soon as the ‘Crying Bird’ appeared, it cried for a long time.
Richard, who watched it carefully, twitched the corners of his mouth.
“As expected, magic is convenient. Call the birds too.”
Until now, the magic that was like rice cake in the picture.
Now the rice cake was not in the picture.
It was within reach if you stretched out your hand.
◈ ◈ ◈
Laplace Kingdom is a country founded by an elder of the Marx family a long time ago.
It was also one of the three countries ruled by the Marx family from generation to generation.
The current King Laplace’s name is Alyssa Marx.
If she put her mind to it, she could solidify her position as Marx’s next head of household.
Excluding Alan, he was born with the most talent among the Marx brothers, and he was also a promising player who reached the highest level.
However, she herself gave up her right to be the successor.
Alisa gave up a lot until she completely left her home and became the king of Laplace.
also.
He paid the price of his own eyes to make Laplace independent of Marx.
What do you want and what do you dream of?
no one understood her
Even Alan, who was taught by her.
“Hmm… … .”
The sky where Magi gets stuck.
A ray of sunlight hit the window of King Laplace’s castle.
Alisa, who had her back to the window, turned her head at the warm sensation.
She had her eyes covered with a black cloth.
A fumbling hand brushed the glass.
“It’s warm. Fortunately, the sun seems to be bright today.”
kiik-
On a sunny day, basking in the light by the window was Alisa’s simple hobby.
Marx’s distinctive blue hair glistens brightly in the sun.
The corners of her mouth drew an arc.
It was a great fortune to be able to enjoy even a ray of light in a world as brutal as these days.
‘Looks like something good will happen soon.’
She prided herself on feeling good about herself.
Along the way, I taught the young youngest with my own hands.
As expected, the youngest had enough qualities to turn the whole family upside down.
Swoop-
As if stroking the light, her hand squeezed the air.
I had to stand at the crossroads of a choice by Alan.
The eldest daughter of Marx who gave up everything for Alan.
– Alyssa’s older sister. What is peace?
When five-year-old Alan asked, she couldn’t answer.
It was a question I had never even thought about.
“want see. Our poop puppy.”
Alisa muttered as she recalled old memories.
Currently, she has achieved her own peace.
A kingdom independent of Marx.
The people praised Alisa and respected her.
“My poor sister could only achieve this much.”
As if satisfied, as if sad.
It was a time when complicated murmurs continued inside.
Beep-
Far away, a ‘Crying Bird’ was flying in.
◈ ◈ ◈
“sister. long time no see. How are you so far?”
Alan bowed and bowed.
It wasn’t very common for him to have his high pride folded up to his waist.
“Come closer.”
Thin fingers fumbled in the air.
After looking at her blindfold for a moment, Alan secretly lowered his head.
It was hard to bear watching this kind of look of the sister I respected.
Warak.
Am I impatient with waiting?
Alyssa took Alan into her arms.
“the youngest. If you come without a message, isn’t this sister embarrassed?”
“I’m sorry.”
From noble mtl dot com
“How have you been? No matter how much my family is a wizard family, moderate exercise is essential.”
A young man who silently watched the brother and sister unravel the riot.
Richard quietly scratched his cheek.
I felt like a borrowed barley sack.
“greatness! Cool!”
So after waiting for the two of them to share their happiness, I cleared my throat.
“hmm? Is anyone there?”
“hello. My name is Alan’s close friend, Richard.”
Richard greeted Alan casually despite Alan’s stinging glance.
“My youngest’s friend… … ? Did you mean that even the youngest has a friend?”
“hahahaha! I don’t believe it either, but somehow we became friends who couldn’t live without each other. Right, Al?”
“Ah, Ael?”
Alisa’s mouth opened wide.
Then it bent like a half moon.
“This sister is very happy. The youngest has a friend… … !”
The way she forgot her chest and jumped around in place was a good example of how happy Alyssa was.
“Who, sister… … !”
Alan’s face was dyed red like persimmon.
He didn’t know whether it was because of Richard’s hateful lies or Alisa’s fierce reaction.
“You come here too. My youngest’s best friend is no stranger to me either.”
“Wait! sister! This guy… … .”
Even Alan’s dissuading, who was astonished, was of no avail.
With her arms wide open, Alyssa turned to where she heard Richard’s voice.
By the time Alan threw his whole body to stop it, it was already after Richard quickly hugged Alyssa.
“This is truly an honor. Alyssa Marx.”
“Whoops. I never thought the youngest would match the Battenberg lineage.”
Alisa whispered in his ear.
Richard.
Its name was only one on the continent.
“okay. What did you come here for?”
“It will be a long story. Since the matter is not normal… … .”
“Then, let’s listen slowly after enjoying dinner.”
Richard, who had been clinging to Alyssa until then, broke away at Alan’s violent gesture.
Alan told his sister that he would be in the royal palace and dragged Richard away.
“… … .”
Alyssa watched the two walk away.
Why?
Right after hugging Richard, it seemed like he could use ‘it’.
She undid the cloth covering her eyes.
The two closed eyes slowly opened.
If it had lost its light long ago, it could see ahead, albeit in a blur.
It was very surprising.
“… … .”
Richard, who was being dragged by Alan, turned around slightly and met Alyssa’s eyes.
He even laughed out loud.
“her. The youngest has made some interesting friends.”
Vision has not completely returned.
Ten minutes at most.
She wanted to use those ten minutes meaningfully.
“You probably don’t know my strength. You can think of it as intentional.”
After a long time, a magic circle was drawn in the eyes that held the world.
‘Laplace’s Eye’.
In this world, a magic that only one person could master was unfolding.
With those eyes, she looked at Richard, who had grown farther away.
From the gait to the breath, the movement and flow of mana, everything.
everything was caught in sight
But what Alyssa wanted to see was something more substantial.
What kind of soul does the only friend of the lovely maknae have?
rumbling-
When bloody tears flowed down her white cheeks, she finally saw it.
“Hoo. You have a strange eye color.』
[…] … Do we see?]
A huge sword on his back.
In it, a red-red giant was tearing his mouth at her.
Beside him was a knight made of light with his arms crossed.
‘Are you saying there are two souls in one sword!’
Alyssa struggled to keep her composure.
but.
“That… … What is it?”
When ‘Laplace’s Eye’ illuminated Richard’s soul, she couldn’t help but be astonished.
I can’t fathom the size,
I saw an overwhelming and brilliant cross.
