"Subaru-kun, good morning, how was your rest last night?"
In the early morning, just after Subaru walked down the stairs, he heard an exaggerated voice as if he was pretending to be acting, and there was only one person in this mansion who could speak in such a strange tone, and that was the owner of this territory, this one. The owner of the mansion, Roswaal Mezas.
"Rosval?"
Subaru called out Roswaal's name in surprise. He did not expect that Roswaal, who had disappeared for several days, would appear again.
Although the 'future' that Liuli had told him did indeed include what happened at the last moment of the incident when Roswaal left the mansion shortly before the monster attack, but that was also the possible future.
Subaru didn't even know the exact date of the beast attack, but because he signed a contract with Beatrice, and because he wanted to catch up with Tomoyo's academy festival, he executed it in a hurry. own plan.
At the end of the plan, when everyone rushed into the deep forest, Roswaal did not appear to solve the beast like Liuli read the novel, and when he woke up from the coma, he did not get the news of Roswaal's return. .
Originally, Subaru thought that this fellow Roswaal would not appear for a long time, but he did not expect to appear so soon.
"Oh? Subaru-kun seems to be surprised by my existence, but it's true, since you came here, I haven't stayed in the mansion most of the time."
Roswaal didn't tell the truth, as he said, he has not been in the mansion most of the time since Subaru came to the mansion, but on the contrary, he did not leave here, Roswaal has always been hidden in the mansion. In the dark, he observed Subaru's movements, actions, and everything he did.
Roswaal has the same 'Book of Wisdom' as Beatrice, which is different from Beatrice's book that does not display any text at all. Although the content is vague and empty, the 'Book of Wisdom' in Roswaal's hand has nothing to do with it. Undoubtedly it is possible to predict the future.
With his own wishes and goals in his heart, he yearns to achieve his goals, and the 'Book of Wisdom' in his hand can guide him to accomplish his goals in the most 'correct' way. For this reason, almost all of his actions All are determined according to the description in the 'Book of Wisdom'.
However, because the content shown in that book was too general, Roswaal could only get general information from it, but not the comprehensive content.
He knew that Emilia would meet someone in the capital who had the power to change everything with constant 'rebirth', and he also knew that that person would come to this mansion, but because he couldn't be sure whether that person was Subaru or not. , so he escaped from the time he had known about the attack of the monsters, and instead went into the dark to observe everything.
Although the content recorded in the 'Book of Wisdom' is not detailed, he can also judge that if it is the person who can change everything mentioned in the book, he should be able to solve this matter.
Although the development of things was different from what he had expected, Subaru had no doubt protected the territory without harming anyone, and 'solved' the incident of the beast attack.
Although there are still some doubts in his heart, Roswaal can basically judge that the man in front of him is the one recorded in the 'Book of Wisdom' who can help him achieve his wish. He no longer needs to continue to observe him, of course The choice reappeared in the mansion.
"Speaking of which, it's really a pity. Every time I come back here, it happens to be when Subaru-kun chooses to go to the forbidden library to learn knowledge. I'm a little disappointed that I can't see you, Subaru-kun, the first time I come back. what."
"Roswal..."
Subaru twitched uncontrollably | moving his cheeks, he helplessly looked at Roswaal who was wearing clown makeup and sighed.
"Can you please stop talking like that, please, you make me feel a little scared."
More than just scared, Subaru felt physically uncomfortable. As a man with a very normal sexual orientation, he really couldn't accept another man speaking ambiguous words in a weird tone, especially if they were still talking to him. of!
"Since you said that, Subaru-kun, then I'll 'restrain' a little bit."
Roswaal smiled, and instead of continuing to perform funny performances like a weird clown, he really looked like a normal person, and his tone and demeanor became somewhat ordinary.
Except for the clown-like makeup and clothes on his face...
"Isn't this more normal, really..."
Subaru sighed, rubbed his head, and sat opposite Roswaal. Because of the rare reason for getting up early, Beatrice, who was used to his usual wake-up time, was still resting in the bedroom, while Roswaal was alone. Subaru looked around strangely.
It's not that Subaru is so relaxed in the face of Roswaal, who knows that it is not simple and hides secrets, but Subaru is very clear that Roswaal needs him, and he currently does not have the power to fight against Roswaal. , you must know that Roswaal is the chief court magus who masters the five elements.
Subaru didn't think it was just a superficial title, whether it was the fact that Roswaal, who got it from Elsa, was the one who planned the two attacks on the royal capital and the mansion, or Ruri's judgment that the other party was very good. Maybe he knew him well, so he needed her, so Subaru couldn't act rashly for a while.
Of course, Subaru didn't forget that he actually had a sure-kill trump card in his hand, that is, besides the 'Return of Death' that he didn't really want to use, the fire avoidance ring, Azure Blue, he got from Miss System.
If it is the current distance, in fact, as long as the Tribulation Form of the Heavenly Fire Holy Inquisition is instantly released, then even Roswaal should be burned to death in an instant, right?But after that, what to do after where?
Emilia's rivalry for the throne needs Rosvall, Ram's magic supplementation needs Rosvall, and if he really flips the table on a whim without knowing anything, he will also become the Kingdom of Lugnica Wanted man?
By then everything would be over, so Subaru couldn't do that.
Therefore, apart from the most basic vigilance, Subaru wants to let it develop for the time being, rather than those who do not. After all, it seems that he will not part ways with Roswaal at the moment. Sooner or later, he will know this.' Joker's idea and purpose, while
And compared to these things that were still far away, the current Subaru was more concerned about something else.
"Speaking of which, Roswaal should see Priscilla when you come back, right?"
"Oh? Another dragon maiden? She seemed to have guessed what I was going to come back to, so she left just before I returned to the mansion, so she should have returned to her own territory."
As if thinking about it, Roswaal said: "But you are really amazing, Subaru-kun, not only Ram, but also the other dragon priestess are attracted to you. ?"
"And even Beatrice has become your contract elf, which is really beyond my expectations."
Roswaal didn't lie about this. He was really surprised that Subaru and Beatrice signed a contract. Logically, this should be a big deal, but the 'wisdom' in his hands. There is no record on it.
Although his 'Book of Wisdom' itself is not genuine and has various defects, it cannot accurately show all the information in detail. The possibility of information, but there is also another possibility in this.
That possibility made Roswaal have to pay attention, because it was very likely to disrupt his plan and make his desired wish never come true.
That is, the man recorded in this 'Book of Wisdom', a man named Subaru Nazuki, can do things that even the 'Book of Wisdom' that records everything about the past and the future of this world could not predict.
However, although there is such a possibility, in Roswaal's view, this possibility is not very large, and it is very likely that he is just too suspicious.
Therefore, although there are doubts, for now, Roswaal is more prepared to continue to observe, as long as he follows the guidance of the 'Book of Wisdom', then Subaru will be able to make a record of breaking away from the 'Book of Wisdom'. It is also possible to know if the matter is simply not recorded because of the shortcomings of the book itself.
And since we want to continue to observe, the necessary temptations and restraints are also essential.
"I originally wanted Ram to be your maid, but now, Subaru-kun, you already have your own maid."
"And about the monsters, I also heard Emilia and the others. In addition to helping Emilia-sama retrieve the badge, she even guarded the territory to avoid Emilia-sama's possible defeat in the election. ."
"And in order to protect this territory, I also let myself fall into a trap, resulting in serious injuries..."
"Given that you already have a maid, Subaru-kun, it seems a little too perfunctory to give Ram to Subaru-kun, but Subaru-kun's achievements cannot be denied. My status as a lord."
Saying that, Roswaal looked at Subaru, and asked the same question as if he was at the dining table last time.
"Then, let me ask again, is there anything you want?"
End of this chapter
The second update is 3k, and I still owe 7 chapters.
Chapter 115 The Theory of Emotional Bondage?
"Then, let me ask again, is there anything you want?"
Good guy, Subaru is directly a good guy. He just thought about it and let it go. Here, Roswaal started again.
He doesn't think that Roswaal really wants to give him a reward or something, just like he wanted to arrange Ram by his side before, I'm afraid it has some kind of purpose this time, right?
Before Roswaal wanted to arrange Ram by his side, in Subaru's view, he should have wanted to use Ram's regular replenishment of magic power to be able to live, and used it as a shackle to restrain Subaru and tie Subaru to him. There was no way to get out of his chariot.
So what about this time?Since Ram's matter has failed, this time should be the same purpose, right?
But what Subaru didn't know was that even without Petra becoming his maid, Roswaal was ready to give up on arranging Ram by his side.
Although I don't know the specific reason, Ram is obviously out of the situation where he needed to rely on mana replenishment to survive, and the most direct evidence is that it has been a long time since the last replenishment of mana, but Ram did not Take the initiative to bring it up to him.
Although Roswaal is also very aware that Ram has a magic stone that can replenish his magic power hidden in his room, it is not long to rely on this kind of thing, and Ram's recent attitude towards him is not obvious. , but there was also a slight alienation, and it was difficult for Roswaal to use Ram as a shackle to bind Subaru.
For this, he had to find another way.
"I don't have anything I want... I might as well say that I'm quite satisfied with my life now."
Of course, Subaru will not accept the benefits of Roswaal. Although he is not sure what Roswaal is going to do, who knows if there is any mechanism or backhand given by a magician who can guard the border alone. ?
Although he hated this kind of 'intrigue' verbal confrontation, Subaru could only do his best to reject the 'kindness' offered by Roswaal.
"Subaru-kun really has no desires or desires, but if it's just that, I'll be criticized if I can't give you a compliment."
"Well... it can't be said that there is no praise, right?"
Subaru thought of a good reason.
"Didn't I follow Beatrice to learn the magic in the forbidden library, and even signed a contract with Beatrice without authorization? Logically speaking, this kind of thing shouldn't go beyond you, why don't I learn magic and make peace with me? How about Beatrice's contract as a 'reward'?"
"That's a good suggestion~"
Roswaal said in surprise, then shook his head with a sigh: "But unfortunately, this is not acceptable."
"Although the Forbidden Library is indeed in this mansion, and Beatrice lives here, neither the Forbidden Library nor Beatrice are actually under my jurisdiction, and I have no power over them."
"So whether it's Subaru-kun, you can learn the magic of the forbidden library, or you have signed a contract with Beatrice, this is the result of your own efforts, and I have no right to interfere and I have no way to take it as a 'compliment'."
Roswaal can understand to some extent that the Subaru in front of him has no vanity and no special desires. He thinks that he is still very accurate in seeing people, so he is very clear that the man in front of him is a man of good character and has certain qualities. A person with a sense of responsibility and justice.
Such a person will not take favors in return, nor will he think that what he has done is worthy of praise or need to be repaid. He is just doing what he wants to do from the beginning.
So Roswaal didn't plan to give anything to Subaru from the very beginning. When Ram had lost his restraint, and Beatrice was also in charge of the magic teaching that could enhance his strength, the 'praise' he could give 'And only material things left.
But Roswaal didn't think that just money or treasures could bind Subaru to his chariot. It was not interests but 'emotions' that could bind such a person.Whether it is kindness or friendship, only this seemingly illusory thing can act as a necessary shackle.
"Subaru-kun, you don't have anything you want, which really bothers me, but it also fully shows that you are a person worth relying on."
"Although it's something that's not worth mentioning, I contacted you a doctor yesterday after I learned that you have a lot of curses entangled in you, Subaru-kun."
"Although it is said that the monster that was the source of the curse has died, the messy and entwined curse on your body is still a problem that cannot be ignored, and although the other party is the same as Emilia-sama. He is a knight under Erxiu, but he is also the leading user of healing magic in the Kingdom of Lugnica, and the youngest heir to the title of the highest-level healer 'Blue'."
"If it was her, I would be able to judge whether your physical condition, Subaru-kun, and whether the curse in your body is still harmful."
That's right, Roswaal was ready to play the emotional card from the very beginning.At a time when matter had no practical effect and the possibility of becoming the opponent's 'teacher' was no longer possible, the so-called 'indebtedness' and 'kindness' were what he could do, the means to bind Subaru.
Although there were only two face-to-face contacts, Roswaal's observations during this period are also very clear, Subaru is a very wise and assertive person, and this kind of person is understanding Emilia's identity and the current situation. Under the circumstances, it is impossible not to find the problem in his words.
Crusius and Emilia are both dragon witches, which means that the two are actually political rivals and enemies.In the same way, as the one who supported Emilia to participate in the election of the king, Roswaal was naturally the enemy of Cursius.
As the 'enemy', he came forward to seek the help of the knights under Crusius to help Subaru. Generally speaking, the other party would not agree to such an action, right?And since he can agree, it must be possible after he has paid the necessary 'price'.
Roswaal believed that Subaru would not fail to notice this, and it was precisely because he was able to notice this and infer that he had paid some kind of 'benefits' or 'prices' that he owed something in his heart.
And since there is a relationship of debt and kindness, then he only needs to continue to consolidate it after that, then Subaru will become the most beneficial 'helper' for him to accomplish his purpose.
End of this chapter
Next, after Phyllis comes on stage, he should return to the capital. The Shura field in the capital is about to start, what?I heard that Anastasia wants to buy Subaru from Emilia?
6 chapters still owed
Chapter 116 The Unreliable Dragon
"Phyllis?"
Crusius Subaru knew that she was the head of Duke Karsten's house in the Kingdom of Lugnica, and was also one of the dragon witches who competed with Emilia for the throne.
The so-called Dragon Miko refers to the candidate for the heir chosen by the dragon who has broken the contract with the Kingdom of Lugnica and guards the Kingdom of Lugnica, and this candidate is collectively referred to as the "Dragon Miko". The badge in Milia's hand is an item that can react to the priestess chosen by the dragon.
However, Subaru still doesn't know exactly what the criteria for Shenlong's selection of 'Miko' is, because just from some information he already knows, the five 'Dragon Miko' known so far are either in character, behavior, or It is the place where the three views are completely non-overlapping.
Emilia advocates the evaluation of everyone, whether they are commoners or nobles, orcs or humans, elves or others, and she hopes to create a society without discrimination and prejudice.
