Chapter 44

Episode 44. Surveillance and unexpected change

There was no way to take the fairy flower right away, so I decided to leave it for now.



It won’t wither soon anyway, so I’ll have to catch a blade someday and gather it.

When I came back out after clearing up my original sin, Amy was waiting outside the door.

She said as soon as I came out.

“You have a guest. brother. Didn’t I tell you to wait?”

“who?”

“Viscount Rama Welton.”

He is a guest who came as soon as I visited the mansion.

I was a little suspicious.

‘Am I the emperor’s watcher?’

Perhaps the Emperor is now searching for the whereabouts of the original sin.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to think that he always watches the surroundings of the house.

First of all, I said I knew it to Amy and headed to the drawing room.

“oh my. long time no see. Sir Cromwell.”

The appearance of Viscount Lamar Welton, who welcomed me, was still the same.

Even when my father was alive, I visited once in a while, and he had a young appearance that seemed to have deflected the flow of time.

“Long time no see. Wellton ball.”

“haha. Hearing that His Excellency had visited, I came to inquire after a long time. There are many examples of sudden visits.”

“no. You are comfortable.”

While answering, I sat in the seat of honor and looked at his expression.

Did he really come here as the emperor’s confidant, or did he really come to convey his regards according to his words?

“It used to be really good, but the years are free. How is your academy life? Recently, I heard that you did an outstanding job.”

“No big deal. I was just lucky.”

After a few trivial conversations, Rama finally asked a slightly suspicious question.

“It’s nice to see you back here again. I deliberately ordered not to remove the furniture or items from the mansion, but have you lost anything?”

“None. Thank you for your consideration.”

“no. I was just worried that I might accidentally touch the belongings of His Majesty the Forerunner. I heard that your ancestors didn’t even leave a will?”

“That’s right.”

“her... ... . That’s a very peculiar thing. Have you noticed anything since you got home?”

You ask very bluntly.

Looking at his eyes and habitual finger snapping, I half-witted that he was the Emperor’s Watcher.

“I am frustrated too. You should have left something behind. It’s nothing and I’m going to die. At least leave some money behind.”

“oh my. Oops. Hmmm. okay.”

When I said it as if to disparage my father, Lamar Welton couldn’t help but let out an awkward cough.

After having a conversation like that, he soon got up from his seat saying he had something to do.

“I will do my best to ensure that His Excellency’s family does not experience any inconvenience.”

“Thank you for your words.”

“yes. See you next time then. dismissal.”

“Take a look.”

When he left, I sat down for a while and called Amy.

Knowing nothing, she entered the drawing room with a bright expression on her face.

“Did you talk well?”

“uh. Amy. I have more to say than that.”

At my words, she raised a question mark above her head, but soon said as if she understood.

“Are you talking about the study?”

“uh. Please don’t go in.”

“why?”

I said this far and thought about how much to tell her.

Still, as a family, I wondered if she should know a little bit.

“I had my father’s keepsakes.”

“A keepsake? what is that?”

“Amy.”

“Why are you suddenly in a mood? What was the memento?

“My father was murdered. mother too. And our family too.”

Was it a sudden story?

Amy looked bewildered even after hearing my words.

“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

Amy, who wanted an explanation, sat down and spoke simply.

Then she reacted in disbelief and soon left the drawing room saying that she would think about it in her room.

it will be hard to accept But I thought it would be better to tell her the truth than to lie to her.

‘Anyway, the emperor... ... .’

There was not only the emperor, but also Bahat Alven.

Do you even feel guilty? However, since the opponent was the opponent, speculation was prohibited.

Thinking about this and that, I returned to the dormitory and prepared for swordsmanship training.

“I didn’t do it for a few days and my body was stiff.”

Even so, the skill itself has improved remarkably, probably because of the number of real battles.

Sooner or later, the mana of Danjeon could catch up with the mana of the heart.

I warmed up my body and called for nickel in the subspace.

Nickel, who came out after a long time, immediately began swinging his sword into the air.

“It’s funny, you too.”

Then an unexpected change occurred.

[‘Codex Apocalypse: Chapter 0 Pure Original Sin’ detects ‘Industrious Sloth’.] [‘

Codex Apocalypse: Chapter 0 Pure Original Sin’ starts growing.]

“What is this... ... ?”

Is that bullshit?

I was taken aback by the sudden message.

Are you a hardworking sloth? did you sense it? From here?

Having lost my mind to that point, I turned my head and looked at Nickel.

Whiik-!

Nickel, who noticed my gaze, swung his sword and looked at me while wearing Dan’s mask.

“Nonsense. Go back in for a second.”

I immediately reverse summoned Nickel.

OK.

[The growth of ‘Codex Apocalypse: Chapter 0 Pure Original Sin’ stops.]

“Ha! haha.”

This is a funny hidden camera, right? yes?

But my reason was hitting my head hard saying it was true.

Nickel was summoned again.

Then, as expected, a message popped up saying that growth would begin.

“What are you, Nickel?”

Whether I said it or not, he raised his sword as if telling him to practice without talking.

Could it be that he absorbed the page of sloth? Or what?

Obviously, the sloth page was intact when handed over to Jester.

It still gave off a magical atmosphere, and I could feel the pulse of mana like a heartbeat.

“Is it a copy bug?”

It’s not clear what happened, but it must have been that the original sin was judged that Nickel was also a page of indolence.

None of this would have happened if I hadn’t had evolutionary traits.

Nickel would still be a Skeleton Soldier if he hadn’t evolved.

And the change didn’t end there.

Nickel, who was swinging his sword, suddenly stopped.

Then he came to my side and started writing in the air.

strange feeling all of a sudden.

Are you getting a buff?

Fortunately, the explanation was on Nickel’s status window.
