    Chapter 56

    Episode 56

    Chris swallowed hard.

    ‘Wait a minute, this mission.’

    Only then did I remember what the dark chatterbox had said.

    It’s not that we’ve never talked about it before.

    Because it was such a huge incident, it was difficult to think about it in connection with this mission.

    – Chris, what do you think was the most important event that occurred in 975 AD?

    The year is now 975.

    Five years before the outbreak of World War I.

    The ‘Dark Chatterbox’ spoke while wagging his tail in a seductive manner, befitting a nine-tailed fox from the Black Demon Realm.

    – Did he sense the coming storm? All sorts of major events began to occur on the continent. The Blood Sword Maga’s coup, the Gold Cross’s star’s fall, the fall of the Karn Empire’s crown prince, etc. But I think there was a more important event.

    – What is it?

    – If you want to hear it, pat my tail.

    – … You don’t like it? You said it because you wanted to talk anyway.

    – Yeah. Yeah. But still, pat me, pat me~! Chris’s touch feels good!

    As Chris stroked his tail with a disgusted expression, the dark chatterbox laughed and said.

    – The Devil’s Amulet Incident.

    – …What is that?

    – It was a dispute over a relic that took place between the Dark Maga and the Poison Maga, and it was not well known to the outside world. In fact, it was nothing special at the time.

    Is Chris’s touch comfortable? The dark chatterbox yawned.

    – During the exploration of the relics, the Dark Maga side’s unit was annihilated, and the Poison Maga side also paid a great price and shed a lot of blood, but that’s about it. What’s important is that this incident brought about a huge butterfly effect later on.

    – which?

    – Several years later, because of this incident, the Dark Maga’s Nogaju is killed. At the hands of his son, the Marquis of Langham.

    The dark chatterbox spoke with a languid face.

    – If it weren’t for this incident. If the Nogaju Nordian had survived, the Bloody Demon King wouldn’t have been able to obtain the Dark Maga so easily. As a result, the era of destruction would have arrived even faster.

    “!!”

    Chris’s eyes lit up.

    The incident was clear!

    ‘We have to stop it.’

    This was not a simple battle over relics.

    It was the conspiracy of the Marquis of Langham.

    Marquis Langham intended to sacrifice Chris and others and use that as an excuse to achieve his own goals.

    The purpose was to bring about fatal catastrophe in the future.

    ‘What should I do?’

    Chris was troubled.

    First of all, the mission required participation. I had to jump in myself to uncover the conspiracy.

    ‘The problem is that it’s not possible with my current abilities.’

    He was now only a three-star player.

    It was an incredibly fast achievement, but to the truly powerful, it seemed like childish progress.

    ‘Still… there is a way.’

    Chris’s eyes sank deeply.

    Does the Marquis of Langham know?

    What kind of abilities does Chris, the one he tried to sacrifice, have?

    Chris made a plan.

    ‘Let’s get ready first. We have to go outside.’

    There was no way to prepare inside the Dark Maga.

    ‘But what excuse do you use to go out?’

    Chris paused.

    If you suddenly leave the mansion for no reason, you will attract the attention of Marquis Langham.

    What he was preparing must never be discovered.

    ‘I have to find a way to get out without being suspected.’

    At that moment, a subdued voice was heard.

    “you.”

    When I turned my head, there was a face I had seen before.

    A girl with a cold impression.

    It was Princess Jupienne!

    “Did you call me?”

    “…okay.”

    ‘Why is he pretending to know?’ Chris was puzzled.

    It wasn’t just a call.

    He was glaring at Chris with hostile eyes.

    ‘Why are your eyes like that? Oh, is it because of the old man?’

    I heard that Roin and Jupien are special siblings.

    A direct lineage that has not obtained even a single grain of dark magic from the Holy Black Ceremony is no longer treated as a direct lineage.

    That’s why he’s reacting like that because he ruined his beloved little brother’s life because of Chris.

    ‘Hmm. It seems like the old man didn’t do anything good either.’

    Wasn’t it the old man who started the fight with Chris in the first place?

    To be honest, he was a cheapskate even though he ended up like that.

    Chris’s speech also naturally became harsh.

    “What’s going on?”

    “…What’s going on?”

    Jupienne frowned.

    “I hate you. So much so that I want to crush you right now.”

    “…….”

    “But since we’re both on the same mission, I’ll put up with it for now. In return, you must follow my orders. From this moment on, I won’t tolerate any disobedience.”

    Chris raised the corners of his mouth.

    ‘So cute.’

    The second princess, Jupienne, was young.

    Although he was in his late teens, he looked much younger.

    Her expression was expressionless, like a walking doll.

    Maybe that’s why I didn’t feel much of a threat even though I set the mood like that.

    ‘That doesn’t mean it’s really cute, though.’

    Suddenly, an idea occurred to Chris.

    “Follow my orders, Ra. Don’t you like it?”

    “…what?”

    “I am not sure, but Your Majesty is my superior.”

    Chris shrugged.

    Then he put on a very unlucky expression.

    “I don’t know if your Majesty is qualified to give me orders.”

    “!!”

    A chill descended on Princess Jupienne’s face.

    Her already expressionless, doll-like face became even colder.

    “…you.”

    But Chris didn’t stop his provocations there.

    “Isn’t that right? If you’re that worthless old bastard’s sister… I don’t even need to look at the level of the princess to know.”

    “!!”

    Jupienne glared at him fiercely.

    Chaang!

    He took out his sword.

    “…Take that back immediately.”

    “It’s true that the old man is a retard, but what do you want me to cancel? Oh, don’t you know that we’re brothers because you’re blind? It was really fun to see him cry when I hit him. Shouldn’t you, the princess, be the one who apologized to me for not raising your younger brother properly?”

    The air around Jupienne dropped endlessly.

    “…you’ll regret it.”

    “Well? Really?”

    “…Be prepared.”

    A black light rose from the sword she held.

    Stable typology of Magi.

    It was a sight that showed that her skill level was at least 3 stars or higher.

    Phew! The black sword flew towards Chris.

    but.

    Chris reached out.

    Towards the flying black sword.

    “!!”

    Jupienne frowned.

    ‘what?’

    It’s not just any sword, it’s a black sword with magical energy.

    The moment it touches your hand, it won’t just cut you off, it’ll burst your palm and cut you off.

    But she didn’t stop.

    Despite her doll-like appearance, she was also a mine.

    If he got hurt because of his foolish actions, it was Chris’s fault. There was no reason to turn a blind eye to him.

    But then Chris did the unthinkable.

    “As expected, I guess she’s the older sister of that idiot, so she doesn’t seem like much.”

    His palm brushed against the side of her sword.

    It didn’t reach.

    A precarious distance, separated by a split second.

    It was the moment when Chris’s palm brushed past her sword, barely touching it.

    Something unbelievable happened.

    “!!”

    The black sword of Jupien, which had been firmly typed, shook violently!

    As if trying to return to its original magical form.

    Chris used his dark magic power to shake up her magic!

    ‘So it can be used this way too?’

    Chris cheered inwardly.

    I tried it because I thought it would work, and it worked as expected.

    Chris moved again.

    Jupienne froze for a moment as her core shook, and she reached out to her black sword, which was still intact.

    As before, he exerted his dominance,

    Pfft!

    The Black Sword has been completely dismantled!

    Of course, it’s not just about using dominance.

    Jupien’s achievements are higher than Chris’s, so there was a limit to what he could accomplish with just dominance.

    Instead, Chris targeted the Black Sword’s ‘structural’ weakness.

    In order for Magi to be classified as a black sword, it must form a core like a pillar in the middle. The part that supports it like a pillar was accurately identified and then it was interfered with with dominance.

    It’s like a feat.

    “…how?”

    Jupienne’s complexion turned pale.

    Although not as good as Chris, she is also an outstanding talent of Dark Maga.

    I figured out what a crazy thing Chris had done.

    ‘That’s ridiculous.’

    But this was not the time to sit around blankly.

    Chris fought back.

    His hand went to her neck.

    I tried to dodge backwards, but my jaw stopped.

    Chris cast the black magic ‘Binding’.

    ‘How dare you.’

    Black magic wasn’t something only Chris could use.

    Jupien studied black magic as deeply as swordsmanship.

    She unleashed three black magic spells in succession.

    ‘Release the Curse’ to escape from Chris’s black magic.

    ‘Momentary paralysis’ that stops Chris’s movements.

    At the same time, the black magic of destruction of ‘rusted skin’ causes Chris’ hands to rot.

    It was a combination of black magic that would make even a professional black magician admire it.

    but.

    Her dark magic was on the verge of being implemented and put into practice in reality.

    Pfft!

    Her black magic was canceled at the same time.

    It was because of Chris.

    Chris interfered with her black magic.

    This was not an exercise in dominance.

    I used black magic to cancel her black magic at the implementation stage.

    It was a skill that could only be performed by professional magicians who had a much higher level of magical understanding than their opponents and incredibly fast computational power.

    Doing something like this while engaging in physical combat?

    ‘Well, it’s easy to interfere with the swordsman’s shabby magic.’

    To categorize, Jupien is a swordsman who has mastered both swordsmanship and magic.

    No matter how highly you learn black magic, your magical prowess is bound to be inferior to that of a professional black magician.

    Chris, on the other hand, had no such limitations.

    With the black sword, magic could be learned to the highest level.

    chin.

    Chris’s hand reached the nape of her neck.

    It’s true.

    Unexpectedly.

    “You… you.”

    Jupienne’s eyes widened as if they were going to tear apart.

    For someone who usually doesn’t show much change in expression, this was a very intense reaction. She was that surprised.

    It wasn’t just her. The people watching the fight between the two from the surrounding area also looked shocked.

    Christian wins in a head-on confrontation with Princess Jupienne?

    Chris snickered, seemingly unlucky.

    “It’s so bad. I don’t think I need to listen to your words, Princess.”

    “!!”

    Jupienne’s face turned red.

    But I couldn’t say a word.

    Because I lost.

    Of course, Jupienne also had her excuses.

    She wasn’t giving it her all right now. She was caught off guard before she could do anything.

    She has never even tried using her special skill, the illusionary sword technique, which combines illusion and sword techniques.

    If I had given it my all from the beginning, I wouldn’t have given in so easily.

    But what’s true is true.

    “I will take care of the mission, so please do not interfere with me from now on. And do not try to find me uselessly. I will go to the castle for a few days and come back.”

    “…In the castle? What’s the matter?”

    Chris said calmly.

    “I’ll be back after playing.”

    “!!”

    “You’ll have a hard time when you go on a mission, so you should have lots of fun before you leave.”

    Chris came up with an excuse to go out.

    It was a waste of time.

    He was originally a loser, so he’ll fit in well.
