Episode 318
The bright moon rises.
when everyone is asleep.
Sumire carefully got up from the bed and looked around.
‘Everyone… must be asleep, right?’
Sumire
waved her palm over her face to see if the lady-in-waiting lying next to her was really asleep, but there was no response.
‘Now, even if I get caught leaving, I just have to say that I was going to the bathroom. As naturally as possible…’
Sumire was thinking that the scene where she entered Shin Yoo-seong’s room was all she had to do to remain unnoticed. It wasn’t easy to make excuses if the scene was caught.
Stealthily-
Sumire moves carefully, keeping footsteps as silent as possible, like a ninja’s shadowing.
But maybe it’s because I couldn’t check my feet?
Perseok!
When Sumire touched the broken wooden floor, there was a loud noise.
‘Heheheheuk…’
Couldn’t it be that someone just woke up from the sound? The moment Sumire looked at her in a cold sweat.
“…Did you think I didn’t know? I already know… what you’re trying to do.”
The voice of one of the maids came from the darkness. It was not easy for Sumire to even identify the owner of the voice.
‘Could it be that you’ve already been caught?! Sooner or later!’
There seemed to be no way to figure out the circumstances in which Sumire was trying to contact Shin Yoo-seong, unless she stole the moment they were exchanging body language. That means that there was someone who stole Sumire at the dinner party.
“How did you know… It seems strange… Don’t treat us like fools…”
Sumire thought to herself as the maid kept muttering.
Should I run to Shin Yoo-seong’s residence?
Or should he lie quietly back in his bed?
Either way, it wasn’t easy if the opponent knew the contact point between Shin Yoo-sung and Sumire.
but.
“You’re thinking of adding salt… We know this much of the recipe…”
The lady-in-waiting was just muttering in her sleep.
‘Whew… I was mistaken.’
Sumire, relieved, walked out of the inn with light steps.
“But why did you put three guards near the restaurant?”
“What keeps disappearing from the food storage?”
“Looks like a mouse or a night beast, right?”
There were three guards between the restaurant and the entrance to the castle, but they didn’t care.
Saaa –
[Summon Familiar]
Sumire used black magic to summon three large mice.
“Squeak squeak?”
“Shh… take them away.”
“Shoot!”
The rats ran out at Sumire’s command and quickly attracted the attention of the guards.
“Squeak squeak squeak-!”
“what! What a big mouse!”
“Aren’t those guys the culprits?”
“Look at his size, he looks like he’s going to eat a lot!”
Sumire proudly enters the main gate while the guards are chasing rats and paying attention.
‘The VIP room where Mr. Yooseong is located is on the second floor… I have to climb the stairs…’
Why is there only one central staircase in this castle? In addition, the moonlight pouring through the glass illuminated the central staircase, so Sumire hurriedly climbed the stairs as if being chased.
Blame-Dadada-
After climbing the stairs to the second floor, Sumire quickly checked the door to find the VIP room.
‘This door is clear!’
From the fact that only one of the many doors was painted golden and glistening, it was clear that this was the VIP room Sumire had been looking for.
but.
Kiik-
Before Sumire could properly comprehend, one of the other doors opened.
‘The person who woke up at this hour!’
In the end, Sumire opens the door and runs into the VIP room before being caught.
Tadat-!
When Sumire opened the door and rushed in, Yuseong Shin, who was sitting on the bed, opened the blanket and nodded as if he noticed the current situation.
‘This this…’
means to hide under one’s blanket no matter who sees it. Sumire nodded in the same way and hid her shoes under the bed and went under the futon.
* * *
‘…why is it so loud?’
Thanks to the turmoil of the guards, Feria got out of bed and walked out into the hallway in her nightgown.
I was still awake and my vision was blurry, but I could see the back of someone walking down the hallway.
‘Who the hell is that?’
Perhaps because she felt her gaze, Feria frowned at the sight of someone entering the VIP room in an instant.
‘…I think she was a bit short for that woman.’
Knock Knock-
After knocking, Feria opens the door without even listening to Shin Yoo-sung’s answer.
“What happened?”
When Yooseong Shin, who was sitting on the bed, looked at him, Feria asked with a suspicious look.
“you. Did you just come out?”
Rather, Shin Yoo-seong acknowledged it right away and answered calmly as if what was the problem.
“yes. I couldn’t sleep so I walked down the hallway for a while.”
Peria did not believe Shin Yoo-seong’s words straight away. However, no matter how much I look around, I can’t see anyone else’s figure or shoes.
‘…is it my mistake?’
Feria finally sighed and looked at Shin Yoo-seong. Why is this person acting so suspiciously?
Why does Sandra trust this woman so much?
In the end, Feria, who could not find any evidence, pointed his forehead and sharply glared at Shin Yoo-seong.
“…Isn’t there something you want to find out on the Isle of Women?”
Peria had no intention of hiding that she was suspicious of Shin Yoo-seong.
“yes. doesn’t exist. I told Sandra everything I was curious about.”
Shin Yoo-seong’s words were true. Shin Yoo-seong was able to find the clue to this attack thanks to the information Sandra gave at the bath.
However, Feria, who felt the words as a provocation, frowned with a firm expression.
“You… do you know that I am a wizard? Ordinary people can disappear at once if they want to.”
Shin Yooseong, who sat on the bed, smiled at Peria’s words, saying it was fun.
“okay.”
Unlike Sandra, who found out at once that she was hiding mana, Feria couldn’t figure out Shin Yuseong’s mana.
This proved the difference in skills between level 6 and level 5 revealed in basic skills, and meant that Shin Yoo-seong was far superior to Peria.
‘Good thing. It doesn’t seem like Sandra’s threatening skills.’
If Benian’s skills were the same as Feria’s, this attack was a level 6 player and 2 level 5 players, matching the difficulty of the 20th floor.
‘If Benian and Feria don’t have special abilities like Sandra, I can handle both by myself.’
Shin Yoo-seong, who has repeatedly trained and grown through various attacks, was no longer an opponent at level 5. Even if the body has changed, it is the same.
Firmly, fidgeting –
Whether it was because of the tightness of breathing under the blanket or because of an uncomfortable posture, Shin Yuseong gently stroked the top of the blanket as Sumire moved as if it were the limit.
‘Be patient, Sumire. It’s over soon.’
Yooseong Shin put an end to the story because he had to expel Peria quickly, even for Sumire’s sake.
“I heard you. Then, since it’s late, could you please leave?”
Feria smiled at Shin Yoo-seong’s attitude.
“People from aristocrats are like that. I’ve seen a lot of people like you. I believe in my birth or social status and hold my head upright even in front of the strong…”
Peria seemed to have no intention of going back. The one who always filled the seat next to Sandra was Peria herself. It was Peria herself who was trusted the most.
But a guy who doesn’t know where he rolled in is trying to get himself out and take his place?
Tak-
Feria, who took out her cane, hit the floor and said to Shin Yoo-seong.
“I have no doubt that those small things will protect me. But in war, it’s different. Fists are faster than words.”
Shin Yoo-seong did not intend to threaten or kill Sandra as much as she cherished it.
“It’s so much fun to teach such a guy the difference in strength. Falling on the floor, only then did I realize that I was wrong… When my eyes widened like this…”
However, Feria intended to use her powers to accurately carve the arrogant newcomer into the hierarchy.
“That’s it! Get to know the subject!”
When the mana was used, the blue light poured from Peria’s staff.
Aww-!
At the same time, a transparent rope poured from the cane, and Yoosung Shin watched it still while sitting on the bed.
“Kyahaha- you idiot~! You can’t even react!”
Feria smiled cheerfully and promised victory, but the situation was the opposite.
‘Rather, it’s too slow.’
Shin Yoo-seong, who even reacted to Ryu Jin’s attack with his acceleration ability, even gave the illusion that Peria’s rope was stopped.
‘If this is all about skills, it’s disappointing.’
It was almost laughable that he had set up such an elaborate strategy while keeping Feria and Benian in check.
Swoop-
Shin Yooseong drew a horizontal line in an instant with his mana-soaked index finger as the rope approached his nose.
─
The pulse of mana used in magic and the breath through which the blood flows. It broke the foundation. Then, through the gap, she injected the same amount of mana with the same wavelength as Peria’s magic.
[Mana Resonance]
Clink!
Like a broken glass, Peria’s magic rope shattered and scattered.
“This is…”
Mana Resonance is a magic that only appears in legends that even Peria, who studied at the Mage Tower, knew only in theory.
thump!
Peria, who sat down as if her legs were weak, looked at Shin Yoo-seong with her white complexion.
“what is your identity?”
However, Shin Yoo-seong still sat on the bed, stroking the blanket, and spoke in a low-pitched voice.
“well. I lost my memory.”
Then, seeing Feria, whose eyes widened in fear, Shin Yoo-seong laughed and laughed.
“But… I think I know what your expression is.”
with one gesture.
He subdued Peria.
