47 – Notice

The world of the game ‘Reincarnation Sword God’ was very suitable for the word Sima Oedo.

The powerful countries on the continent seem to maintain a certain level of security, but if you wander around carelessly in a secluded place and get stabbed in the stomach, no one will take responsibility.

Even Berta is a criminal, and if he is judged to be a thief, he will be summarily tried without a warrant. It is an incredibly cruel world.

‘I need to become stronger.’

I can’t stop training, even if it’s just to keep my body intact. What’s more, didn’t Siron scold the guardians of the Dawn Castle without even putting a drop of spit on his mouth, saying he was going to kill the demon god?

Since the original plan was to give Lucia the holy sword and the honey sucker fell behind, Siron had to do something.

‘I never thought we’d be using false names here.’

To put it a little differently, one of the systems, [Family Name], is like karma.

The higher the player’s Prestige value, the higher the chance of encountering an evil-oriented Named or Apostle. And this reputation increases the more heroic you do.

Or pluck the apostle’s head. Saving lives or something. There are various ways to raise it.

However, the ways to lower one’s prestige were limited.

‘Lowering the favorability of NPCs.’

This is where it gets complicated again.

In the game, you only had to solve the case in an escalating manner and kill the enemies that became stronger, but in reality, there were so many things to consider.

Since I’ve already developed a certain level of affection for Siriel and Hugo, I can’t afford to waste the effort I’ve made so far.

So, Siron arranged a meeting with Hugo, but…

Making a plan and convincing Hugo were two different things.

“I… I don’t understand.”

In front of Siron, Hugo looked like he had no idea what his nephew was talking about.

He stroked his rough chin a few times due to his beard, then tilted his head in a way that did not match his rugged appearance.

“Well… if I understand correctly, it means someone who is undignified, unjust, and, um, acts like a scoundrel, right?”

“That’s right.”

“her…”

Hugo smiled as if he were dumbfounded. For a moment, I thought my nephew had gone crazy.

“I want to ask you something.”

“yes.”

“Do you know that your outfit is the exact opposite of that of an asshole?”

“It’s a place to ask for a favor.”

Siron smiled and answered.

The appearance of Shiron that Hugo saw was literally the complete opposite of that of a madman.

Wearing formal clothes without a single wrinkle. Her hair was neatly combed, and her body had a faint scent of perfume. His posture was so polite that he had his hands on his knees with his eyes looking sly.

Hugo’s brow furrowed at that ironic sight.

‘Are you shocked by the fact that you have no talent?’

A little while ago, Hugo received good and bad news from his dear adjutant.

One is that Siron cannot handle mana. Another thing is that Lucia has natural talent.

The moment the news came out of Johan’s mouth, Hugo was more worried about Siron than happy.

Wasn’t it none other than Hugo who lived his life being compared to his younger brother Glenn?

‘I’m glad I gave up…’

It is also foolish to live aimlessly while holding on to a hopeless goal. Moreover, unlike Hugo, who simply had no talent, what Siron has is not a matter of whether he has talent or not, but a congenital disability.

Therefore, Hugo had no intention of forcing Siron to make any effort. I also expected that it would be a bit crooked.

“hmm…”

Even so, it was completely unexpected for him to come directly to me like this and ask for permission to become an asshole.

“I didn’t know there were people in this world who would do something crazy after getting permission.”

“I didn’t want to worry you.”

Siron spoke calmly without changing his facial expression.

“…worry?”

Hugo wondered what that meant, but then his eyes widened and he leaned forward.

“It seems like there is a reason why you have to do such a stupid thing.”

“That’s right.”

Hugo crossed his arms and sighed deeply. He took a moment to think about it and then opened his mouth.

“then. “I allow it.”

“…Are you not asking why?”

“Whether you know the reason or not, what I allow will not change. No, I don’t want to hear it because they might object after hearing your situation.

“…”

Siron wiped the smile from his mouth. Of course, there is no way Hugo would miss that change. Hugo told his nephew what he guessed.

“After all, you have the power of prophecy, so it won’t be something you do without thinking.”

“Well… right.”

Siron smiled and showed his approval.

I am not saying that I have no choice but to do it in order to survive. It is unacceptable to be given an escort because of unnecessary interference. In order to move around freely, you had to lower your reputation.

He said rudely, saying, ‘I am the eldest son of a warrior family, so please open the door’ to get a high-performance shield. If you do something like this, you will be killed by the apostle who heard the rumor.

There is no way that Siron, who has not yet been able to defeat Bertha with pure skill, can withstand the apostle’s attack.

All that was at stake was the bad publicity it would garner, but Siron didn’t care much about that problem.

‘Killing demons has nothing to do with fame. If you think it doesn’t work, just upload it again.’

Permission was asked.

Was it the moment when you finished talking and were about to get up?

Hugo’s mouth opened as if he still had something to say.

“Chiron.”

“yes.”

“It’s a bit of a digression, but John stopped by here first, a little while before you came.”

“…I’m sure you’ve heard that I can’t handle mana.”

“…okay.”

Hugo paused a little before continuing.

“There is currently no way to treat your symptoms.”

“are you okay. Rather, I don’t want you to be hung up on hopeless treatment. And I am confident that I can live well without having to deal with mana.”

Siron spoke firmly.

He didn’t want Hugo to worry about his condition.

It stimulated Hugo’s sympathy, and he didn’t want to go around here and there just to cure his illness. However, there is no guarantee that it will be cured. In the meantime, you may face assassination threats.

“okay. i get it.”

Hugo smiled bitterly. Since he is so determined, it seems wrong to change his mind. In that case, we will only provide full support.

“Shiron. “Do as much as you can handle.”

“Sure. Anyway, it’s not like I’m going to be an asshole for the rest of my life.”

“That’s it.”

It was only after seeing Hugo’s bitter smile that Siron was able to leave the scene with a smile.

“Did you have a good time talking?”

When I returned to the annex, Encia was there to meet me. She had just heard the general situation from Siron, so she was curious about what the outcome would be.

“Uh, I got permission. “Unexpectedly, he didn’t say anything.”

Siron left his coat with her and went inside.

Encia, who brought wet towels and cold water, smiled mischievously and said.

“I never thought that stubborn Hugo would give me permission. “It’s really surprising.”

“…You guys were so unreserved towards my uncle. While saying honorific words to me all the time.”

“It’s about tens of years, it’s because it’s as vivid as yesterday to us. Doesn’t it still look like the days when Hugo and the head of the household used to quarrel immaturely?”

Ensia stared straight ahead with a vague look.

“At that time, Hugo and the family head were very small and cute. Why does time go by so quickly…”

“…”

Shiron shuddered and looked at Encia. Despite being in the form of a girl, she behaves frivolously and speaks like an old man.

“Encia. You know what makes me look a bit old when I say that? Be a little self-respecting.”

“Oh my goodness. Come to think of it, young master, do you know that?”

Encia covered her mouth with her hand and laughed.

“I went out the other day, and everyone saw me as a human girl, right? Are you saying this is also quite fun? Everyone calls me ‘ma’am’, ‘unni’, ‘unni’. hehehehe.”

Encia hummed as if she was in a good mood.

“Good. There’s no need for troublesome things to happen to demons. “I’ll change and come back, so prepare a meal for me.”

With those words, Siron went up to the second floor of the annex. As I was walking down the hallway, there was someone at the door.

The red-haired girl squatting down looked quite miserable.

From noble mtl dot com

“…What are you doing here?”

Shiron squatted down in front of her and met her eyes. However, Lucia avoided Shiron’s eyes.

“I waited for you to come.”

“We’re going to have dinner together later, what are you waiting for?”

“…you can skip dinner.”

Lucia said that and rubbed her eyes with her hand. Then he looked at Shiron with slightly reddened eyes and lowered his eyes.

“really. Are you okay?”

Lucia was asking Shiron if the fact that he couldn’t handle mana was okay.

I joked with him not to be too discouraged, but it seemed to be of no use.

Shiron tried to sigh… but stopped. For some reason, it seemed that Lucia would be more depressed if she sighed here.

“I said it before, but you don’t care? Or something. “Do you want me to blame you?”

“Well, that’s not it…”

Lucia denied in a blunt voice. Then, he held Siron’s hand and bowed his head.

“…I’m really sorry for hitting you back then. “It’s too late, but I wanted to apologize properly.”

As she apologized, her eyes were watery and as if she was about to shed tears at any moment.

But Siron did not hand her the handkerchief.

I wiped Siriel’s face and threw away the handkerchief, but unfortunately I did not refill it after that.

“Okay. Let’s first wash our face. huh?”

Instead, just place your hand on your face and rub it.

“Your pretty face is a mess.”

“…”

Instead of answering, Lucia nodded her head slowly.
