“-You had a bad accident.”
Okay.
The hand that goes well with the word ‘seomseomoksu’ dropped the newspaper roughly and it spread out on the desk.
[Sultan Salalah in critical condition.]
[Western assassins found around the carriage?]
[Are war clouds hovering over the western part of the discovered flag of Sultan Mahba again?…]
The Sultan attack that happened last night.
It was known to the public that the culprit was Asasin a group of assassins from the West who attacked the Sultan by surprise and inflicted damage on him but apparently failed in their mission and committed suicide.
However those who know more deeply.
So the few who figured out the truth were heartbroken.
“If you pick up a knife you have to be prepared to get stabbed yourself.”
“Huh… you mean Cheongsanyusu.”
“I’m a little…”
“It’s not a compliment you bastard.”
Sigh!
She then raised her fan and hit his head but unfortunately the knight’s head was harder than before.
“Mmm!”
“are you okay? Why are you hitting me like that? “It just hurts your wrist.”
“Hey you ugly thing….”
She Isis grabbed her wrist.
The wrist she hit tingled and she frowned which was rare.
“…It seems like you’ve become stronger than before.”
“I trained myself up a bit!”
“ha…!”
Being shameless….
It’s a face that doesn’t show any thought that something was wrong.
Well Isis who called him didn’t think he had done anything wrong.
but.
“I wish you had told me before you did it.”
“…I’m sorry about that.”
“sincerely?”
“…If you ask me that is it really…?”
“…I guess I’ll have to prepare a stronger metal fan next time.”
It’s really disgusting.
Isis really hated her stepbrother.

…Originally Lee Han planned to kidnap the Sultan.
The plan was to hear the truth from him whether it was kidnapping or something else.
But unfortunately.
– What good is the truth obtained through threats?
Did you originally say that the truth is greater than propaganda and fabrication?
Even if he got angry and tortured the Sultan to force the truth out the Sultan just had to play the victim.
It’s okay to say you don’t remember like a drunk driver and it’s okay to say it was an accidental situation that you couldn’t help with your weak mind and body.
It was something that upset Lee Han but this is how the world works.
That’s why Lee Han gave up kidnapping him.
Even though it was a decision I didn’t like
…still.
– Then all we have to do is not kidnap and torture?
– Yeah?
-And if that guy turns out to be a really pitiful guy I’ll feel relieved to some extent.
-What does that mean?…
– Just trying to solve things my way in my own way.
– ??
Just like that Lee Han attacked the guy in reverse.
No evidence was left behind.
Galahad and Tristan are certainly capable.
They left no trace of their presence and all crimes and circumstances of the incident were limited to matters within the sultanate.
“I don’t know what to say but I feel sorry for comparing myself to white cats.”
“…Do you know that you are spitting in my face?”
“I stopped him on the spot right? So I have to take it out.”
“….”
Lee Han was confident.
Because he did enough.
On the contrary.
“More than that what did you do? “A person who usually seems to have clairvoyance is now…”
He struck her and Isis’ eyes drew an arc for the first time.
As if it was refreshing that he got scolded.
“Somehow I felt like he was even more delinquent than usual and I was disappointed.”
“I’m more angry than disappointed. “The kids almost got hurt.”
“…Hmm it’s definitely reasonable to be angry about that.”
“?”
The person who said something shouldn’t feel this way but I never thought she would so readily admit her mistake.
I came out arrogantly because I am not the type of person to admit mistakes like that.
if….
“Sister are you in any pain?”
“….”
“Is it a summer cold? Well the summer cold is really bad. “Rest quickly I’m leaving.”
“…Who are you treating as sick?”
“Isn’t it painful?”
“…I think I’m going to be sick because of you.”
“??”
Even if I worry about you why is it like that?
“It’s not that I left the academy alone because I didn’t have anything to worry about. “I just thought I would be able to successfully block it because you were there.”
“…Isn’t that a dereliction of duty?”
“There is a good saying ‘Right place at the right place.’”
“….”
“I trusted you. So I just let it go so don’t be sad.”
“…Why is this sister acting like this all of a sudden?”
Rather than being moved by her suddenly saying something nice to listen to I feel anxious.
If other people praised her they would be overjoyed and sad but Lee Han got goosebumps.
I was wondering what else to order.
“Hmph disgusting thing. “I understand what you always thought of this sister.”
“You can only become a great person if you can look back on your actions.”
“That may be true but it doesn’t seem to apply to me.”
“….”
…As expected he is not an ordinary person.
But it seems like the small talk is over.
“You asked me what on earth I was doing so I didn’t respond at all. It’s as they say. “I was already convinced that the Sultan had some purpose in coming here.”
“purpose?”
“It took me a little while to figure it out.”
Percussion.
Lee Han caught the notebook she threw.
Considering that he usually prepares documents etc. when giving information seeing him give it so rawly makes it seem like he really just finished his research.
I guess she was pretty busy too.
Sarah.
Lee Han slowly looked through the information given by Isis.
About 3 minutes later.
“Did you say Greg Bean? “The illegal wizard you are chasing.”
“…Please turn on the blinker. “My heart is shocked.”
“Oh ho ho!”
She figured out her purpose which no one had ever taught her and Lee Han shook his head saying he couldn’t do it.
anyhow.
‘I’m scared I’m scared.’
* * *
Greg Bean was an illegal wizard known to have died several years ago.
Although he was a member of the Imperial Magic Tower he attempted to conduct an illegal experiment under the theme of [Mysterious Robbery]. Because of this he was judged to be an illegal wizard and was kicked out of the Magic Tower. Is it difficult to steal twice?
It was reported that he continued to conduct illegal experiments to steal the mystery and was caught and executed by the guards of another country.
…But that is only a fact revealed on the surface.
“The reality is that a facility gathered mysterious species and conducted experiments.”
“It’s just my prediction.”
A prediction made by Lee Han based on the testimony of Judia Pierre who appears to be a survivor of the laboratory.
Of course this is not just a prediction.
“As you already know from my background investigation there is some information I found out through the guild and no matter how you look at it the person who led the experiment is a spellcaster named Greg. “More than anything they say I’m a master at changing faces.”
“It sounds strange to say that it is a background investigation.”
“With the follow-up investigation… Anyway looking at what my sister gave me it seems my prediction was not wrong.”
The notebook that Isis gave contained information about the sultan’s contacts in the West and included conversations he had with his subjects.
I don’t know how they got this but that’s not important right now.
The important thing is.
[-Acquire mystery from Pendragon.]
It was true that these guys were carrying out a scheme.
Although it was briefly condensed it was a shocking fact.
Because the story was that the Sultan was aiming for the mystery of Pendragon.
“It’s funny this guy named Sultan is holding hands with a spellcaster.”
“I guess all you have to do is gain power in a certain way. “It’s not something I can’t understand but it’s not classy.”
“…elegance?”
“If it were me I wouldn’t have secretly kidnapped her like this. It would have been better to make it a secret deal between countries. “But I wonder how they did such a crazy thing.”
“….”
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“…No I thought he was a scary person again.”
Rather than criticizing killing someone and plundering the mystery I understand the feeling and look for an alternative so it seems that the powerful are clearly powerful.
However.
“It’s natural. Now that Pendragon has power it can show tolerance and mercy. But what if Pendragon had no power? “What would it be like if you always had to worry about invasion and the risk of war was high?”
“….”
“Remember it is a misfortune for an individual to be powerless but it is a sin for a nation to be powerless. Those who lead a nation must always wear a mask of hypocrisy and wickedness but Sultan Salah committed an act that lowered the nation’s reputation through a base act that was neither hypocritical nor wicked. How undignified and mean it is to hold your head high and not bow down to a topic you have no power over. Even if I may be called a prostitute in the future it is the duty of a royal and a leader of a country to bow my head in order to have power. So the Sultan is eliminated. He rose to the rank of sultan due to his lineage and decent abilities but he was arrogant and did not know the subject. And we shouldn’t just leave someone like this alone.”
“…hmm.”
…Lee Han reflected.
Because I thought she was scary.
Although he has learned about the sadness of a powerless country through history the fact that he does not recognize it properly shows that he himself is still lacking.
“sorry….”
“Your brother-in-law is an amazing person just because he knows how to apologize. An attitude of being able to reflect. “I appreciate it very much.”
“….”
I feel like I’m being teased but I guess I’ll have to deal with it for now…
He had a bitter smile on his face.
* * *
“-Bring the wizard.”
“huh?”
“If you bring back Greg Bean alive I will solve everything.”
“…Do you think you have any plans?”
“She always has a plan.”
“Hmm.”
Lee Han guessed that Isis was plotting a sinister plan.
I don’t know what they’ve prepared but I guess you can trust me.
but….
“Bringing back a Se-eup spellcaster alive is not my specialty.”
“Try. If it goes well I will give you a big reward. “If you want can I kiss you on the lips?”
“No seriously there is no need.”
“…Goyan guy.”
It might be a reward to others but to Lee Han it’s a reward he really doesn’t need.
I would have rather received it in kind.
Lee Han snorted.
And so.
“Anyway I understand the story. All you have to do is bring him back alive right? …Well I’ll try my best.”
“It is not an effort it is a necessity.”
“…That’s a huge burden.”
“No matter what happens I won’t hold you responsible.”
“…really?”
“No problem.”
“Hoo….”
“…But that doesn’t mean you should just leave.”
For a moment Isis wondered if she had made a mistake.
While other articles say there is an appropriate line the younger brother he knows is…
‘There is no such thing as an appropriate line….’
It was a moment that seemed like entrusting the fish to a cat and Isis felt a little anxious.
And sure enough….
[The Great Disciple of the Magic Tower is missing!]
“…ha.”
Isis felt like she was going to have a headache.
