Chapter 158
EP.158
Victoria narrowed her eyes and looked beyond the ridge.
“How many enemies?”
Charlotte said, standing next to Victoria.
“200,000.”
“That’s ridiculous. “It would have definitely been wiped out.”
Charlotte smiled empty-handedly.
“Have I come back to life from the grave?”
The imperial army that Ruid annihilated is alive and well.
But I didn’t feel anything coming from them.
The pupils are empty and all the equipment and rituals are old-fashioned.
“This is the power of the first emperor that I only heard about. Did Irene expect this far?”
“Because the leader is smart.”
Charlotte was probably the Windsor who was closest to Irene.
That’s why he was the person who felt saddest when he heard that Irene had changed.
But –
Charlotte was a Windsor after all.
Windsor does not forgive anyone who threatens the North.
“It won’t be easy to kill.”
Charlotte, who always has a bright smile on her face, said with a straight face.
I don’t know if the point of the sword is referring to the emperor or Irene.
Victoria raised her sword and shouted.
“All troops – follow me!”
**
“Move.”
“no.”
“It’s not possible.”
Two maids blocked Ruid.
“Why are you stopping me?”
“This is Irene’s order.”
Ruid was imprisoned in the mansion.
Of course, it was Irene’s doctor.
Now that Victoria was gone, the priority was her successor, Irene.
No, regardless, it looks like they have already taken over all of Windsor.
“Do you think I won’t be able to go if you stop me?”
“You cannot warp without Ruby’s permission.”
Unlike Rosalie, who is quite strong, Ruby has no combat abilities.
But Ruby had abilities beyond simple combat.
That is ‘space control’. No one can use space-type abilities without Ruby’s permission.
“You can just walk.”
“I won’t just sit back and watch.”
“Do you think you will be my opponent?”
“It’s possible to organize things that take time. Until Irene comes.”
“Do as you will.”
Ruid turned his back.
My only parent in this world might be in danger, but I had no intention of just staying here.
“young master. “You can’t move.”

Luid’s steps stopped when he heard Ruby’s voice.
“If the strongest young master is taken away, there is no hope for Windsor anymore. So no.”
The First Emperor’s Power – Mind Control.
No matter who your opponent is, you can move as you wish.
Of course, Ruid also knew.
That ability has no answer. Since it is a ‘power’ without magic, dispelling it is also impossible.
That’s why I can’t stay still any longer.
“…Is Victoria okay?”
If Victoria is taken away by the first emperor, he cannot hold out any longer.
“I also have thoughts.”
Ruid said coldly.
“It is impossible to use the power without encountering it.”
“How can you be sure of that?”
Of course you have to know.
Ruid read all 1,000 episodes of the original novel.
The power of the first emperor was limited.
You must make eye contact.
‘It’s okay as long as you don’t get close.’
The amount of magic recorded in Louis Christopher’s brain is enormous.
When it was decided to use this entirely for war, there was no one who could stop it.
“trust me.”
Rosalie flinched as Luid spoke with strong conviction.
Ruby also seemed surprised. The youngest Confucius, who was extremely indecisive, felt that something had changed.
Ruby immediately smiled. And he bowed his head politely.
“The space barrier has been lifted. “Louis can warp wherever he wants.”
“you…!”
Rosalie panicked and grabbed Ruby’s arm. However, Ruby’s gaze did not waver, and Ruid also felt that the space that felt like it was blocked was cleared.
Ruid immediately cast warp. As his vision blurred, he looked at Ruby and said.
“Thank you for trusting me.”
Now it’s time to turn things around.
Even if it’s too late, I’ve decided not to do the pathetic thing of wasting time caught up in regret in this life.
I have to ask Victoria after I’m done with this.
Why did Irene feel differently?
And it turns out that Irene can’t be like her old self.
**
People falling down countless times.
Victoria stands at the center of it all.
As if to prove that she is the head of the Windsor family, hundreds of people disappear with a single wave of her hand.
Who would dare open their mouths in front of that overwhelming sight?
‘This… is the power of Windsor.’
Ruid, who was watching everything from the top of the cliff, swallowed his saliva.
The scale was different. Enemies that could not be felt alive were once again killed countless times by Victoria’s blows.
There are still many enemy forces remaining. But it wasn’t something to worry about.
The knights of Windsor gathered around Victoria. Among them, Charlotte was phenomenal.
She, who was always smiling, swung her sword at an invisible speed without the slightest smile on her face. Victoria did not allow any enemies to come near her.
The knights of Windsor can sometimes be considered fools. Each and every one of the Windsors who went into war with seriousness was a monster.
I rushed to help them, but no – that
was the moment I realized that trying to help them was a form of arrogance.
‘thank god. The Knight of Windsor is stronger than you can imagine.’
If I felt like I was being pushed back, I tried to use a big spell. But I’m glad it doesn’t seem necessary.
If you cast high-level magic, the first emperor will inevitably notice your presence.
It would not have been easy to assassinate him while he was hiding like a rat. This is it. This allows me to focus on my original mission.
‘Let’s find the first emperor.’
Ruid closed his eyes. Mana was used to spread it out as thinly as possible. I made as much noise as possible. The only people who would notice would be wizards of the same level as themselves.
‘The Mana Heart and the three great sacred weapons still remain in this world. That means they used a different method.’
What is assumed is the coffin of the first emperor. It is possible that the embattled emperor used it.
‘It’s not perfect to be revived by that. ‘You definitely need a medium.’
The necessary medium is lineage.
A pureblood who inherited the blood of the first emperor.
In other words, the medium is Lucius.
The first emperor resides in Lucius’ body.
‘found.’
Ruid opened his eyes. I looked at a certain place.
I thought it was at least close by. Just as in war, information is important to the power of the first emperor.
The best way to be sure is to see it with your own eyes. But it was quite far away.
‘You won’t be able to see the battlefield like that.’
What are you thinking? Are you simply a coward? No, if you were a coward you wouldn’t have stormed into Windsor right away.
The important thing is that Ruid had only one thing to do.
I cast an invisibility spell and flew through the sky. It wasn’t long before we arrived and landed carefully.
It was a temporary barracks. This barracks looks familiar.
It was a barracks needed to subdue monsters.
‘How dare you use Windsor’s barracks?’
I bit down on my molars. Ruid approached the tent. I heard something rustling.
I stretched out my hand. I was thinking of blowing up the tent.
However, while using magical power, one realizes it at the same time. There is another person.
‘Who is it?’
There are several possibilities. If you are a subject of the emperor, you will not hesitate, but the emperor’s authority is at stake.
Who might have been taken prisoner?
‘It’s a little dangerous, but I can’t do it.’
Let’s use magic to warp into the barracks. Since power is power, you should be careful when encountering it, but you decided to believe in your own magic skills.
As I was approaching the barracks, I heard a rushing sound.
“your majesty!”
It was a knight whose entire body was covered in black plate mail. It was easy to see that the black smoke rising was related to black magic.
The Black Knight stopped in front of the barracks.
“Your Majesty, this is urgent news!”
The rustling sound inside the barracks stopped for a moment.
“Hurry, there’s something you need to check!”
The barracks door opened. A man with messy clothes came out. Lucius. But I could tell right away that he was a completely different person.
“What’s going on?”
“Windsor’s resistance is stronger than the new idea. Looks like we need to replenish…”
Phew!
“…!”
“I was having fun for the first time in a while, but I lost steam.”
Before I knew it, the emperor’s sword was stuck in the black knight’s body.
He didn’t do it himself.
‘Artifact?’
I saw the sword moving on its own. It seemed to have similar performance to the winter that Ruid had.
No, it is higher than that. Because Ruid simply used his sword using telekinesis.
‘This is not the time to be surprised. We must seize this opportunity.’
Ruid organized the magic formula in his head. It was a magic that not only erased life, but also the soul itself.
‘It’s over for you now.’
But at that moment—.
“huh?”
“…!”
I made eye contact with the first emperor.
why? I’m sure I won’t be able to see myself to him.
Luid’s pupils shook mercilessly.
The emperor threw his sword into the air and came towards me.
It was a moment of extreme tension.
“What a cute little boy.”
The first emperor reached eye level and stroked his head.
“I’m sorry, I showed you something a little cruel. “If I had known it was there, I would have endured it.”
‘Do you…don’t recognize me?’
That was probably natural.
There are not many nobles in the empire who do not know the face of Ruid.
However, the first emperor was a thousand years ago.
It would be impossible to imagine that a mere 12-year-old could become an archmage who had reached the 5th level of magic.
In other words, there is no need to be afraid of power.
“Anyway, you’re really cute. What is your name?”
“…Luid Christopher.”
Ruid took a deep breath before saying Windsor. Instead, he spit out something else.
“…Yes.”
“Oh noble? Was there a family called Christopher… Hmm, of course I wouldn’t know. So why are you here? “What about your parents?”
The first emperor was not seen as an emperor at all.
Just an ordinary person.
From my past life memories, I feel like he was just an older brother in a normal neighborhood.
‘…isn’t he a villain?’
Now that I think about it, it was just a preconceived notion that the first emperor was evil.
He hasn’t done anything bad yet.
‘Maybe if I speak well, I can get over it.’
It was time to think about that.
The emperor stood up.
He glanced at the barracks and stroked his chin.
He spoke to Ruid as if he had thought of something interesting.
“Actually, I’m not that curious. I thought of something more fun than that. “Would you like to play with your brother?”
“…yes?”
“Follow me.”
The emperor smiled deeply.
The tent of the barracks was lifted.
There was one woman inside it.
“….”
Disheveled clothes.
Empty pupils.
…blond hair and long eyes.
A girl who looked just like Amelia was lying disheveled on the bed.
But it wasn’t Amelia. Although they look very similar, they are different people.
It seemed like Ruid knew her name when he first saw her.
“Isn’t it pretty? It’s my toy. But I’m a bit tired of just picking and eating.”
The first emperor smiled.
That was the most disgusting smile Ruid had ever seen.
“You try it. I think you’ll get some inspiration.”
Ruid regretted thinking, even for a moment, that the first emperor might be a good person.
