Duke, Please Repent! chapter 268

50. Visit the Duke's Horse Tower (3)

perplexed and confused

Obviously, I said that Anima is a kind and gentle person. In [Master of the Holy Sword] that I read, he appeared as such a person.

'What did Edna just say ?'

But you don't have to go back to your memory to confirm it.

"Bar, what did you just say?!"

There was someone who had the same curiosity as me.

How the heck can you forget what you just heard? You didn't put in any effort, so you thought you were that good, but you were just stupid? Did I do it . Oh my God, I'm so sorry!"

Edna's remarks without hesitation were real-time.

She pretended to wipe away the tears that didn't even come out with a clearly sarcastic look

all.

dry it... one?'

It was the male mage who started to argue first. Edna just responded back to back.

If she had been quietly holding on or being pushed back, I would have stepped in and stopped her, but now the situation is a bit ambiguous.

Contrary to the laid-back Edna, the male wizard's face seemed to be busy with red and green.

If it were dried up now, only that male wizard would be inferior.

I cling to the granddaughter of the master ma'am,

Do you think that the skills you developed with the support you received are purely yours?"

Because my skills are supported, I received support from Mato. Unlike some other bugs that did not receive any benefits from Mato because of my lack of skills, only the backbone of my family was omitted.

no more

Let's just listen, it's too bad for our emotional education.

'Let's close the ears of Serpens!'

I covered his ears, his good hearing is useless

Ji.

With my eyes, I gave the operation order to Eugenes, and turned the Serpense, who had the ability to read the book, back and forth.

The quick-witted Yujis did before on the stairs leading to a basement. He blocked Serpens' ears by mobilizing his spirit power.

It is perfect. Now, I think I'll just have to relax and enjoy watching the fight.

What's wrong with this orphan bastard?!

I'll have to cancel. I can't seem to enjoy it

all. It's a pad lip, so it's overdone.

The moment I was about to open my mouth to dry out.

Apologize to your parents right now!

Kick , the orphaned subject who was abandoned by his parents E. Do you think you can't stand swearing at your parents?

Apologize to Mr. Budren's parents, not my parents!

A snarky insect... "No," said Edna in anger at Budren's words.

In response to Edna's words of defending her parents on her behalf, Budren

He put on a puzzled look.

"While growing up with such support from my parents, I reflected on my skills that were inferior to those of a much younger orphan! Blaming myself for being lazy, negligent, and stupid! I have to apologize for making you into garbage! That's the way you became a child, right?"

He was a kind and gentle person.

These days, the kind and gentle people pretend to be concerned and blow up the flame-like pad lip. It's not so warm, it's so hot that it feels like it's going to burn.

No, the filthy mage was burnt and sizzling.

Like this X...!

The disobedient wizard refused Edna's invitation, and slandered his mouth.

Edna also responded with a double humour.

It was difficult to filter, so there was a lot of swearing at the level that it would be better to read the whole sentence.

I'm glad I blocked Serpence's ears in advance.

For a child without discernment to hear

Not desirable.

At first, Eugene, who only covered Serpence's ears, has now spread the soundproofing screen to protect his own ears.

Jimin invited me to come inside too, but I declined.

Someone has to watch Edna's struggle. I never watch fights.

A long battle ensued, and the winner was decided by a wizard named Bud Meng, who could not overcome his rivalry, and burst into tears.

'As the saying goes, 'The filial piety will cry.

Then shall we go up?

Edna looked at us and said in a cheerful voice.

The sweet brown hair that Anima had praised brushed Edna's shoulder and swayed lightly.

Recognizing that the situation was over, Eugese sent his spirit friend back to his hometown.

Come up this way.

With what spirit did you ride on the disc?

I do not know.

At Edna's instructions, half-enchanted, we climbed onto the disc that looked like there was no such thing as a safety device.

Edna said 'the 48th floor' and took her foot off the blue jewel that looked like a magic stone the disc slowly floated upward with a hum.

The original plate floated stably without shaking, but in that sense, the gyro drop is also stable when it goes up.

I grabbed Eusis, who could summon the wind spirit to make him float.

I'm sorry. I didn't know Mr. Budren would come out like this in front of the guests.

After the original went up a bit, Edna apologized to us with an embarrassed look.

My opinion is a little different from hers.

The filthy wizard was in front of the guests, so Edna thought he would refrain from talking, so it was obvious that he had an argument].

"You and that person you don't seem to get along very well?"

Not just Mr. Budren, but everyone.

"Do you have any corrections?"

Ed Naga smiled bitterly at Eugene's cautious question.

I don't really want to talk about that.

With an expression that anyone could see a story, Edna cut it off and refused to ask any more questions.

Eugenes was not the type of person to forcefully ask what he didn't want to say, so he nodded saying he understood.

Is Anima doing well?

I thought there would be silence, Ed

I immediately threw up a new topic. It must be a question I've been wanting to ask since the day we met.

I looked back on the memories of meeting the anima.

At first glance, it looks like he's just sitting there blankly all the time:

Thinking about always sitting between Liena and Puror, or voluntarily hiding behind them, a trusting relationship seemed to have been established.

Just like what I read in [Master of the Holy Sword].

She seems to get along well with her co-workers. The group also respects her.

Really? I'm glad . I'm a sweet and kind child, but I was a little worried because I got a lot of misunderstandings.

Edna was relieved to hear my answer.

And about the anima, kind, gentle, caring, blah blah blah blah blah. As someone who had read [Master of the Holy Sword], I poured out compliments that I couldn't agree with.

Flame-like pad lip and harsh profanity

It was unbelievable that he was the person who spit it out, and he was so kind.

The disc, which had been rising with a hum, came to a smooth stop.

It seems that we have reached our destination, the 48th floor.

For safety's sake, rather than slowing down, you should have built a wall to keep people from falling.

'After all, they are wizards, so it's okay to stumble, isn't it?'

You can't do this unless it's for inviting outsiders you don't like and pushing your back.

Inwardly, he came down from the plate, cursing the behavior of the wizards who had no consideration for their guests.

Whether it was equipped with a weight recognition function, the empty disc that no one had loaded slowly descended.

What about going down? do you jump

If you enchant this magical energy, you can bring it back.

Edna explained as if she had noticed my thoughts. When she looked in the direction she was pointing, a transparent magic stone caught her eye.

In the middle of the disk we rode on earlier,

Unlike the magic stone that was overflowing with energy, it was empty inside.

There seems to be no other way for someone without magical power to get out of here than by jumping.

Isn't it a bit unkind? Because wizards are originally from a tribe that lives in their own good taste... Especially the magicians belonging to the tower are even worse, so most of them have to express their superiority even by demeaning others.

Edna said with a frown, as if she didn't like it.

I am also a magician belonging to the tower.

I wonder if I can say something like that.

Oh, is it a bit strange for me to say something like that to Mr. Budren?

I was curious about something else, but let's just put it that way.

Because it definitely felt weird.

I'm not ignoring people who don't have skills. I pull people ahead of me and knock them down. I hate people who try to trample on people who have been hurt like that and put them under their feet.

Being intolerant is being ignored by people who thought you were less than you. That's all I did.

It's a bit radical, but it seems that Edna's way of protecting the anima and herself.

Jimin's eyebrows frowned bitterly, and only his purple eyes were shining proudly.

It would have been better if the other wizards in the tower were even half innocent of that child...

Edna sighed and said.

The child she was talking about would undoubtedly refer to an anima.

If you look at it that way, even Anima is talking nonsense. That must have been a weakened version of Edna.

After all, it seems that children are mirrors that reflect adults.

"Ah, if you ever have an argument with wizards, try touching your pride. They have a strong sense of pride, so they rarely admit that they are lacking. I lose it. Reason and rice field

A wizard who has lost Lee is nothing more than a scarecrow.

Suddenly, I got a tip to win a fight with a wizard.

I don't know what to answer. I just smiled and nodded, replying I'll take note, and Serpens looked at me.

The absence of force means not to flirt in front of the wizard, and if there is a conflict, shut up quietly and save your life.

'What did I say!'

Edna took us to his lab.

He guided me and explained the various facilities of the tower.

To be honest, there was nothing as great as Edna's swear words.

In the first place, the reason I enthusiastically agreed to see the tower was to see the elevators of this world in person.

And the ultimate goal was to preach the convenience to Serpens and insist on installing one in the duke's house.

However, seeing the elevator in person was disappointing. There is no safety device, and if there is no horsepower, the elevator can be operated.

can't even

If you're going to ride something like this, it's better to just ride the Serpence.

But why did you come to see me?

Edna arrived at the lab, offered us a seat, and asked a question as we got into the car.

It is unacceptable to have sweets in your car.

I secretly took out the 'Chocolate Earl Gray Mosaic Cookies from my subspace pocket and placed it on a spot that was slightly skewed towards Serpence from the center of the table.

While Edna was pouring hot water into the cup to heat it up, Serpens quickly grabbed the cookie and ate it.

That's actually:

Serpens' mouth was busy mushing cookies, so I, his aide, explained the sequence.

I'm not saying that there is a vague danger that I told Anima, but 1, the story about an orphanage was taken.

It was set as additional information received from the Illuminati members who met around the Kingdom of Prune.

'It's not like joining the Illuminati.

It's hard to tell, but what... . That's when we say we've investigated.'

Or did you say that you used the Lux Mea ARS chance as a messenger of the gods privilege?

What matters now is not the source of information. The question is whether or not to accept new members for the Illuminati.

We have come to a situation where we have to confirm Edna's personality, not in a formal way, but in reality.
