Episode 150. power augmentation (2)

When a noisy banquet celebrating a victory is in progress.

The king left quietly so that the other members could enjoy the banquet comfortably.

Instead, I tilted a teacup with Iris, whom I hadn’t seen in the office in a while.

He asked, savoring the tea.

“Are you feeling well?”

At that calm voice, Iris hesitated for a moment and lowered the teacup.

He even answered politely.

“sure.”

“I heard you were on a dangerous mission as a separate unit.”

“It wasn’t me who was in danger. They were other articles. and… .”

And Roan too.

Everyone knows that it was Ian who captured the corps commander, but it is not true.

Obviously Roan got it.

But he also has no greed for achievement. He must have passed the ball to Ian out of fear of attracting attention.

‘What a great person.’

Obviously, he was only one year older than himself, but looking at the achievements he has made so far, there is no other article of reversal that has gone through all the battles.

This wasn’t just about ability.

Iris remembered what had happened in the palace a little while ago.

‘Do you have anything you want?’

What did he reply to the king of a country who asked for the reward he wanted?

Roan looked at the king and answered this with an unwavering, upright attitude.

‘I don’t want anything right now.’

‘-So, can I ask for something later when I have something I want?’

The demand was so bold that even Ian next to him couldn’t control his expression.

But the king laughed.

‘Do so.’

At least it didn’t seem like he wanted money or treasure, so I was curious what he would ask for later.

If it was a request that crossed the line, it would be fine if I didn’t listen to it, and if that wasn’t the case, I thought I’d listen to anything.

‘I’m looking forward to it.’

What will the brave hero of saving the country ask for later?

imagining that time

The king tilted the half-empty teacup.

* * *

The banquet lasted for five days.

From the first day, the main character of this banquet without the royal family was none other than Ian.

In fact, if it was natural, it was natural.

The first reason was that even though he was the eldest son of a powerful family, he was a natural monument that did not appear at banquets like this.

Secondly… .

“By any chance, does the Archduke have a partner?”

This was the reason.

Ian’s superior ability and personality were regrettable, and he was still unmatched.

So, it was only natural that the nobles who had women had their eyes on her.

“doesn’t exist.”

The middle-aged aristocrat’s expression widened as he asked Ian’s answer.

Soon, he asked in a soft voice.

“If you think about it, the girl over here is just 20 this year, by any chance… .”

“sorry. Because the knights are busy. I have no idea yet.”

“… … ?”

The aristocrat blinked his eyes at the resolute refusal to put a single needle in.

Ian spoke again.

“sorry.”

“Oh, well, I see. This can be happen.”

It was firm, but not rude, so the noble smiled awkwardly and backed off.

And as the advance party was repulsed like that, the nobles who were observing the situation scattered all over the place.

Even though he is still young, he is the eldest son of a ducal family.

Since he is the person who will later take over as the head of the household, if he is persistent and gives a bad impression, that is even more damaging.

“after.”

It was only when he saw the nobles retreat that Ian let out a sigh he had been holding back.

approached and asked.

“Why did you all refuse? Too bad.”

“What, oh. Roan.”

When I said it with a smile on my face, Ian shook his head and smiled bitterly.

“The opponent was also a good family.”

“is it?”

“uh. I know a little bit.”

It was something I could say because I knew all the trivial information.

Among the aristocrats around Ian just now, there were those who were really clean, had decent grades, and were wealthy.

From noble mtl dot com

Of course, even if the game and development are going wrong, even this basic information wouldn’t have changed, so it was a really bad suggestion a while ago.

“I kinda It is done now.”

Ian answered awkwardly. I looked at him and said.

“Will you suffer later if you keep putting it off?”

“… well. You will do the hard work.”

Ian responded as if it was absurd.

But that’s not much.

“It is not. look.”

I pointed around.

There were still some aristocrats quietly looking at Ian, but few looked at me.

“My side is quiet.”

I guess so.

There’s a decent eldest son next to me, but there’s no way he’ll turn his eyes to me.

So I said this, but Ian muttered with an expression that it was difficult to tell whether he was laughing or frowning.

“This is it. The duke must be worried.”

“Why is my father?”

“… no. Write. okay.”

“… … ?”

Ian shook his head and closed his mouth.

He quietly puts his hand on the wine.

Seeing that, I sipped my wine glass and thought for a while.

“Yes, brother.”

“huh?”

I suddenly thought of something to say.

Obviously, today is the day the banquet ends, so the reward will be received today.

“Perhaps. why is that?”

“Have you decided what to get?”

“I’m going to take a look and decide.”

What Ian will receive as a reward is a gold bar and 3 arms owned by the royal family. Rather than gold bars, the main weapon is the back armour.

“Choose that as your armor.”

“Why?”

“Just do it.”

“… ?”

He evaded Ian’s question and asked him to do just that.

Of course, since they are all weapons worthy of their name, they would do more than the basics, but there was a weapon that Ian had to use.

“I’ll explain when I get everything.”

“… ? Well, got it.”

Ian was still puzzled, but when he said he would explain properly later, he agreed saying he understood.

“… … .”

The banquet seemed to be ending soon.

right before it ends. Awards were given to those who made meritorious deeds.

“Don’t go.”

“uh. I’ll wait outside.”

Ian followed the court knight to the palace storage.

* * *

“… … .”

30 minutes to wait outside.

I saw Ian approaching from a distance.

Came out sooner than expected.

I was thinking of waiting for over an hour because the royal warehouse is not usually spacious.

“What did you pick?”

“As you said, they are armor.”

A pauldron, a shield, and a dagger for self-defense.

It was a damn good choice.

“Then what is the reason?”

Ian asked. Why did you insist on choosing only three armors? Before explaining it, I brought up another story for a while.

“I have something to tell you before that.”

“what?”

It was about this war. To be precise, it’s about the battle with Balak.

“what do you think about it?”

“… … .”

Ian’s complexion darkened.

He knows that too.

That he was of little help in battle.

In the meantime, even though I wanted it, I had to take the credit for myself, so I had to be more concerned.

Ian said in a bitter voice.

“sorry. still i… .”

“I didn’t mean to apologize. In fact, to some extent it is natural.”

“… Of course?”

Ian’s brow narrowed.

He had an expression of disbelief.

But at least that’s how it seems to me.

The difficulty has gone up, and the compatibility is not good.

Besides, Ian wasn’t fully equipped yet.

“What do you mean?”

“It is literally. He seemed to lack experience and equipment yet.”

“… … .”

Ian kept his mouth shut as if his head was getting complicated.

But that time was not long.

he was quick to admit.

“You’re right, Roan.”

It is not easy for a knight who grew up listening to genius to admit his shortcomings, but at least Ian was not of that type.

I was relieved and got to the point.

“So that’s what I mean.”

“uh.”

“It may be a bit out of the blue, but do you have any plans to visit a knight’s training?”

“… Qi, do you perform knights?”

At my sudden suggestion, Ian replied with a tense expression.

But I was talking quite seriously.

First of all, I kept talking.

“Do you know it’s a giant’s test?”

“A giant, what?”

“The Giant’s Trial.”

Giant’s Trial.

This is one of the hidden events for named NPC power-ups.

If you pass the giant’s seven tests, you can receive an armor made from parts of his body.

Only one person can take the test.

So I was thinking about who should do it. After seeing the battle with Balak, Ian made the final decision.

‘Uriel is fine.’

In fact, Ian and Yuriel’s performance in the last battle was similar.

It was ok because it was similar.

In fact, the fact that Ian and Yuriel’s activities are similar at this time is because it means that Yuriel’s growth was so steep that it makes no sense.

‘Maybe it’s my influence.’

Just as I grew rapidly with Kayla’s help, she also accelerated her growth under my influence.

‘Ian needs stimulation too.’

So it was a perfect opportunity.

I don’t know how long it will take to pass the test, but the war ended with a great victory anyway.

Especially since the reorganization of the unit that had been delayed at this point began, and the Mine Extermination Unit was also slowly disbanding.

“Wouldn’t it be nice to come back at a time like this?”

“… … .”

Ian’s expression changed seriously as he listened to the explanation, as if he knew that I was not joking.

he asked.

“… If you pass that test, can you definitely grow?”

“uh. I can assure you.”

Even if you fail the test, there will be some effect.

Because the test itself was basically made for the growth of NPCs.

“Then you should.”

Ian didn’t think long.

Even if you fail the test, if a certain level of growth is guaranteed, isn’t it a choice that has nothing to lose at all?

“Good idea.”

I told Ian the place and method to take the giant’s test to Ian, who said that the knights who had been running without a break for several years were given a short vacation.

“Are you going right away?”

“okay. I plan to go tomorrow.”

Looking at Ian preparing to leave with a look of anticipation, I also prepared to return to my family.

* * *

When Roan was still in the capital.

A pub in the Duchy of Carziel.

Even in broad daylight, the tavern was crowded with members taking a break for the first time in a while.

They emptied their beer glasses and gathered onlookers by exaggerating what they had experienced on the battlefield.

“Master! One more beer here.”

“yeah!”

noisy atmosphere.

But that mood didn’t last long.

It was unavoidable.

with my daughter

The owner raised his head at the sound of a bell coming in.

“Come on, fifty… . What!?”

Immediately after, I was speechless.

It was because the person who entered quietly just now was not in a position that a commoner like him could carelessly talk to.

“Hey, what are you doing here… ?”

The owner, who swallowed his saliva, cringed and stepped forward. The wind caught the attention of the knights.

“… !”

“Boo, vice-captain?”

The appearance of a person who did not match the tavern atmosphere instantly quieted the tumultuous interior.

Seeing the knights hurriedly hiding their wine glasses, Yuriel said in a thoughtful way.

“Don’t mind me. I was just looking for someone.”

“Ah, yes… .”

She pretended to be moderately familiar with the members and looked around.

I’ve already looked everywhere except here, so if it’s not here… .

“… Oh, there is.”

Uriel found the person he was looking for in a corner of the tavern and headed there.

Then he sat down next to him and said.

“Would you like to talk to us?”

There will be no party who is not aware of it.

Now was the perfect opportunity.

“… What are you talking about?”

Uriel continued.

“just… .”

Noah’s neck.

Staring at the crudely designed necklace above it.

“You have something to talk to me about.”
