    Chapter 126  shback


    Who do you like the most among the representatives?


    Everyones eyes turned to Becky.


    Becky, who had been fidgeting with her thigh or twirling her hair until a moment ago, was now staring at Irene without blinking.


    Oh, are you speechless?


    Irene smiled leisurely and looked around.


    She was nning to interview the representatives only about their personal lives today.


    The reason was obvious: to elicit some stimting fun.


    Ill have to ask the other representatives first. Who do you think Becky will choose?


    Then Louis answered without hesitation.


    Its n. Theyre always together. Or should I say, Becky follows him around?


    Follows him around? Hmm, why is that?


    Irene added with interest. Beckys face turned red and she stammered.


    Uh, uh, no, um


    The more Becky was at a loss, the more satisfied the officials looked.


    A cute girl who couldnt sit still would surely get a good reaction.


    Becky nced at n.


    She looked back and forth between him and Irene a few times, and finally opened her mouth with difficulty.


    I do like n the most


    Irene grinned.


    You like n the most?


    Yes.


    Really?


    Every time Irene asked innocently and cheekily, Beckys voice got smaller.


    In the end, she nodded her head slightly with a face that looked like it would burst if touched.


    Yes. I mean, I like him as a representative. Thats possible, right?


    Yes?


    Ah! Did you mean as a romantic interest?


    No, no! No Is it weird if I say no? No, anyway, no. No


    As Becky rambled on, the officials around herughed with a pleased expression.


    Thanks to that, the atmosphere on the scene rxed a bit.


    Okay, then lets start the real interview.


    Irene pped her palms together with a loud sound.


    How did you feel when you fell into the danger zone?


    I wasnt too worried. It was ns doing.


    The voice that answered was Louis.


    You werent worried when you fell into the danger zone? Come on, dont say that now.


    Irenes gaze shifted to Trixie.


    How does it sound to you, Trixie? Is Louis telling the truth right now?


    Its true.


    Trixie answered without hesitation.


    Here we go again. I just thought that way. Its normal when youre with n.


    Didnt you feel a strange emotion sprouting as you overcame the crisis? Thats what I was hoping for.


    I already have someone I like.


    Trixies short answer.


    Interest filled the faces of Irene and the other officials.


    They looked like cats who had found a fish.


    The representative of the magic department, and the daughter of the Fritz family, has someone she likes Can you tell us a little bit about it? Just a little bit.


    The person I like is.


    Trixies face turned to n. The blue-haired girl continued calmly.


    Only n knows.


    Only n knows?


    For a moment, Irene had a hunch that this interview would be a hit.


    She turned her head and saw another official floating letters in the air with blue mana.


    Dont miss this material it said. Irene nodded quietly.


    Becky said she likes n the most, and Trixie said only n knows who she likes This is interesting, isnt it?


    Irene pretended not to know and continued cheekily.


    The starting point of the change in the magic department. Lets ask n himself, the person involved.


    The topic naturally shifted to n.


    How about you, n? What are you thinking?


    Im thinking of building a magic tower.


    Silence fell over the garden for a moment.


    Irenes eyebrows twitched once at ns answer.


    The officials next to her also froze slightly.


    Irene slowly recovered from the situation.


    Ah, yes. A, a magic tower Shall we talk about something else first? n, do you have anyone you like?


    Sweat beads had formed on her forehead.


    She was desperate to change the topic of conversation.


    Enough with the useless talk.


    But n did not allow it.


    The interview was a stage to spill the truth about the tower, and he had no intention of giving up the spotlight.


    Right now, the only thing on my mind is building the tower.


    Irene opened her mouth nkly.


    This was a huge disaster.


    The bureaucrats who met his eyes had the same expression as her.


    They bit their nails, clenched their hair, grabbed their necks In the silent chaos, Irene barely managed to keep her professional spirit.


    She could somehow get out of this situation naturally.


    The tower. Youre going to build a new tower What made you decide to do that?


    Its because the magicians of this world are pathetic.


    Thud.


    The script that Irene was holding fell to the floor.


    She quickly turned around and crossed her hands in a scissors shape.


    This was something that should never be broadcasted!


    The bureaucrats felt the same way, and they all scrambled to cut off the power of the crystal ball.


    But.


    The power of the crystal ball wont shut off!


    Itspletely jammed!


    The crystal ball did not listen.


    And soon, the bureaucrats were able to find out the cause. Blue magic was interfering with the crystal ball near the spark.


    Interference?


    Who is it!


    When they traced the magic back, they found n.


    He made sure that the power of the crystal ball could not be cut off, and then he opened his mouth calmly.


    The tower will be built no matter what. And then, the level of this ground will rise a little.


    Aaaah! Eeeeeeek!


    Irene screamed to drown out ns words.


    She sped her hands together and whispered urgently.


    Are you crazy? The princess is watching this too!


    Even the princess will like the tower. I promise that here.


    Aaaah!


    Irene screamed again. This time, it was almost a shriek.


    Huh!


    But n pinched her lips with telekinesis. At the same time, one of the bureaucrats shouted.


    How the hell are you going to build the tower! The magic department doesnt have the funds for that!


    Im not going to beg for it either. Investing should be free by default.


    n snapped back at the bureaucrat.


    From now on, the concept of magic will bepletely changed. Everyone, be prepared.


    Before long, Irene had a face that looked like she would burst into tears if touched.


    The second princess, Auroras inner circle.


    Until the beginning of the interview, the atmosphere here was no different from a thin ice sheet.


    The envoy aged in real time as he watched the bored face of the princess.


    The intrigues among the representatives were of no interest to themoners, let alone the princess.


    She had no curiosity for such things.


    But what about now?


    Two reporters exchanged quiet conversations with bright smiles on their faces.


    I was worried that the princess would not be satisfied, but fortunately, it was not that bad.


    I didnt expect her to like n so much. The bureaucrats still think it was an ident, but you know.


    The group interview was practically arranged by the second princess.


    Therefore, the key point in the pce was whether they had satisfied Auroras interest, and they had done it very well.


    The reporter stroked his chin and said.


    There are many who boast without any ability, but he did something that really got both attention and expectation. Thats why I keep thinking about him.


    Thats right. I was totally disappointed with the daily life stories, but he did a great job in an unexpected way.


    Im d n joined us. What would we have done if we had only interviewed three people as nned?


    We would have lost our heads.


    The eyes of the two reporters turned to Aurora. She was holding the record sheet with both hands, and her gaze was fixed only on ns face.


    Finally, she opened her mouth.


    Hey.


    Yes, Your Highness.


    The knights and the reporters straightened their postures and held their breaths. Aurora spoke slowly.


    Its interesting. Very interesting.


    Of course, her crescent-shaped pupils never left the record sheet.


    He doesnt have the funds to build a magic tower. Does he not? Neither does the magic department, I suppose.


    Aurora licked her lower lip.


    But he was sure that the tower would be built. And he even added that it would suit my taste.


    The reporters and the knights did not react.


    Exactly, they could not react. It was the first time they saw Aurora show so much interest in something.


    It was better to stay still and hope for the best. That was the expression for this situation.


    Good.


    Aurora blinked her eyes three times.


    Crescent, waxing, waning.


    Her pupils changed shape endlessly as she blinked.


    Call the finance minister right away.


    The Knight of the Flickering me, Scarlet, walked with difficulty.


    She had almost fallen several times, and actually copsed twice, but she managed to reach her destination.


    The annex of the Judith family. Recollection.


    She stared nkly at the building that contained unknown truths, and suddenly clenched her chest.


    Ugh


    She felt nauseous.


    She was a loser.


    She had lost so perfectly that she could not even make an excuse.


    And she was afraid of the truth that she would face from now on.


    A pain that felt like squeezing her whole body hit Scarlet countless times.


    Even though the Flickering me had healed her body, it still hurt. It was a strange thing.


    Ugh-.


    She vomited again because her vomit was dirty.


    She shook with pain and thought.


    She had to go in.


    She had to go in anyway.


    Scarlet took out the key from her pocket with trembling hands.


    It was the thing that would open the entrance of this annex, given by the lord.


    She did not know how the interior of the annex was arranged, or how she could verify the truth.


    But there was no other way.


    She had to enter to understand what she had experienced. Even if she was swept away by the strange phenomenon.


    Ugh


    She breathed heavily and inserted the key into the entrance of the annex. Then the whole building flowed like a liquid and began to drip.


    Swoosh!


    The wave swallowed Scarlet whole.
