36 CHAPTER XXI -- WHY WAS WE TARGETED? (2/2)
'What? You wouldn't have to kill the woman, Shelly, if that was the reason.
Normally, the king is a man.
So.
There's a tradition in our country that the children of the righteous wife will be the next king. We have a tradition in our country that the children of the righteous wife will be the next king.
The Emperor replied with a wrinkle between his eyebrows .
''I see. ....
''Oh, I don't know what's going on.''
So what about this client, then?
I asked a question that I was curious about.
To which my uncle replied.
'That's the thing: .... It's not information I got directly from the ninja, so it's not evidence.
'You have no proof: .....
'There are other suspicions that the Duke of Philibert assisted a ninja to break into the hall, but there's no evidence of that at all, either.
Philibert? Oh, that chubby house: ....
Huh, you and your father are both idiots.
Totally.
The emperor nodded.
Well. So, without further ado, would you mind if I explained to Leo-kun about the reward this time?
Oh, I forgot. Have a good day.
Then the emperor asked Miss Elise to do it.
''Yes, sir. First, I'm knighting the baron, but this time I'm skipping the quasi-baronet because it's a two-for-one achievement.
Yes, sir.
''And the Imperial Palace, as soon as we find something good here, we'll give it to you.
Oh, thank you.
This makes you a nobleman, Leo.
It doesn't feel real.
'Well, it's just a name now. I'll give you the territory when you're about ten years old, Leo, and you'll feel it then.
'What? Will I get the territory as well?
'Cause running a fiefdom is a nobleman's business.
It was.
Reminds me of the role of a nobleman.
When she had finished explaining the reward, the queen entered the conversation.
''I think it's time to end this story and let Leo go to Shelia.
Yeah, I know.
The emperor nodded.
I'm sure the princess is getting tired of waiting for you by now, so hurry up and go.
Uncle said, grinning at me.
Yeah, okay.
I'll head to Sherry's as soon as I can.
and
knock-knock
Is that you, Leo?
Shelly came out the door with a bang.
Yeah. Sorry to keep you waiting.
I'm totally fine. Get in your room already!
With that, he pulled me into the room.
I walked in, and I was in my room.
”A day late, but happy birthday!
I gave Sherry a birthday present.
I gave her a special wand that increases the power of her magic.
It's about six inches long, with a beautiful jewel on the handle.
I made this one myself, of course.
The ingredients are Elder Trent's drop divine tree branches and gargoyle drop gems.
For the gemstone, I chose the one that holds the most magic for the longest period of time.
The result is...
<The Fiend's Wand.
Using this wand to do magic increases its power and potency up to 100 times.
Also, it's easy to adjust the power and direction of the magic
Creator: Leons Forster
I've created something pretty awesome: ....
It's 100 times more powerful: .....
Shelley, who received the wand, looked at it happily and hugged me.
Thank you for the beautiful wand!
I'm glad you like it.
Heh, let's get on with it!
No. You can't do that. You're in big trouble if you do magic here.
I rush to stop Shelly.
But ....
Don't worry. I don't use attack magic.
'What? That means...
”Tease my magic!
I was able to use charm magic while using my wand: .....
''Oh, no, no, please~''
I'm desperate to resist, but there's no way I'm going to be able to resist a hundred times over, and my body won't stop
Good luck with that.
Shelly lay down on her bed.
No!
I scream, but it sets Shelly's magic in motion.
”Ahh~ I haven't had this feeling in a long time~
Shelley wriggles his body around.
(Mindless, mindless, mindless, mindless: ・・・・・)
Oh, that's too good to be true: ~~~~~
(Mindless, mindless, mindless, mindless, mindless ・・・・・)
”Phew! ~~~~, more~~
Then my fight lasted a long time: .....
