Chapter 406.2: Irregular ③

Chapter 406.2: Irregular 3

Becoming king through luck. This is something the current King of Code hates the most. As someone aiming to become the next King of Code, I absolutely cannot approve of such behavior.

It hurts to lose two 《Lightning Emperor (Raitei)》 class warriors, but by knowing that my opponent had powerful warriors in their hands, I still have some cards that I can play. A secret weapon that I would rather not have to use if possible.

I glare at Angus, who is sitting on his disgusting throne, then say with a bold smile.

“Is that all you have to say? Angus. It is beyond hilarious that you would try to bring me to my knees with just something like that. When I get the throne, I will use you as a seat.” (Nora)

『...... It seems you’ve come up with an idea, Nora. Surely it’s not――That which is sealed away in the deepest part of the prison, can it?』 (Angus)

“Hh......” (Nora)

As always, he is a man with a good head on his shoulders. To think he can figure that out just from this conversation. A perfectionist who pays attention to details. That is Angus Code. Angus makes a display by *boribori* scratching his head and sighing.

『Don’t do it. That is the worst of the worst sealed targets, an absurd being that even this Code’s system doesn’t work on, even I have no intention of using it. Unlike the 《Lightning Emperor (Raitei)》, that thing――Hates us. With the power of the king, it may be possible to control it, but――Even though it was for one of my best clients, I regret having accepted it.』 (Angus)

Certainly, that thing is dangerous. Even if the 《Lightning Emperor (Raitei)》 was in perfect condition, it would have surpassed even him, a monster that even Code’s system cannot capture.

A different kind of natural enemy than the 《Lightning Emperor (Raitei)》, who is clad in lightning, one of Code’s weaknesses. Imprisoned even deeper than the cell in which the 《Lightning Emperor (Raitei)》 was imprisoned, it was something untouchable that even rejected the ability evaluation of the city system. However, that is why its existence is not something that Angus can easily ignore. I have the advantage when it comes to the prison system. I have been in and out of the prison many times while creating enhanced humans. I still have a mask that I didn’t use on the 《Lightning Emperor (Raitei)》. The tough part is that I cannot be sure it will work on that――.

Angus speaks in an almost admonishing tone.

『Don’t disappoint me anymore, my Imouto. Like Morris or Zachary did. Using incompetent people and those you can’t control is not fit for a king.』 (Angus)

“............ I didn’t know you were such a caring person, Aniue. Don’t let your worries get the better of you.” (Nora)

『...... That’s the way it has to be. After all, I have to completely crush the enemy and bring them to their knees.』 (Angus)

He smiles deeply, finishes with condescending remarks, and then he cuts the call short. He is just as unpleasant as ever.

Well, I can understand how he feels. Angus is the eldest son of the current King of Code, and depending on the king’s policy, it wouldn’t be strange for him to inherit the throne. However, the King of Code has five children as candidates for the next king and wants them to compete with each other, so he puts in place a system to achieve this. It is no coincidence that all the Royal Family members, except for the Spare, have their own factions.

When I become king, Angus will have to die. He knows the city’s systems too well. It is too dangerous to leave him alone when he is this hostile. And Angus is probably thinking the same thing.

Although there is no way for us to join forces in the first place due to how the succession system works, how pointless this is. Just as I sigh, Angus’s face appears before my eyes again. Apparently I forgot to close the line. Does he still want something?

What is projected onto the screen is a small room with almost no furniture. And the one sitting on the floor and bowing deeply is none other than Alisha-ojou.

Wh...... What on earth is this...... What is she doing?

I know the circumstances and backstory of how the Spare was created. Although she was not given the right to leave her room, she should be educated by the city system in case of an emergency and should be living a healthy life. She should be aware that she is a member of Royalty. It is hard to believe that a member of Royalty would bow her head.

Then, while I am frozen up, I hear the voice of the man who had come to me earlier to make an incomprehensible request.

『That’s not good! That kind of low-level dogeza won’t do, Ohii-sama! Your posture is too weak, the King of Code won’t make you any chocolates if you are like that! Put your palms more firmly on the ground! Didn’t I already show you how to do it! Even though Nora-san finally gave me some really good information――But in the first place, it is because Ohii-sama lied and said she ate all the chocolate bars that this happened.』 (Cry)

The Spare raises her head. Her green eyes are unlike any of us siblings. She *chirari* glances over at me, then turns to Cry, who is standing in front of the door, and replies in a whisper.

『I-I didn’t say I ate it. I just said I didn’t have any more. I just didn’t have any to send............』 (Alisha)

『...... That’s what we call making an excuse. Seriously. Well, Nora-san told me to ask the king, so that’s fine.』 (Cry)

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

“Hh!? ............ Oi, I, didn’t, say that!” (Nora)

And then, I shudder at what he said.

No way, don’t tell me this guy is planning to directly ask the King of Code to manufacture this so-called chocolate? I can’t believe it.

I can never do such a thing, it is truly an act that does not fear god’s wrath. This is not just a case of being a peace-loving idiot. What on earth does this man think the absolute King of Code is?

I now understand the meaning of Angus’ last words. This guy is――A mess. I shouldn’t get involved. I will catch his idiocy. There is also a chance that I will get a stray bullet when the King of Code’s wrath explodes. If that happens, it is the end for me.

When I turn off the video, I am shocked to find myself breaking out in a cold sweat, something that I have never felt even against Angus before.

I have to deal with Angus, but there is something else that takes priority. That man has been babbling about how I had told him to ask the king. It had been a long time since I had contacted the king, but it is bad if things go on. I have to explain myself somehow――.

Thanks for reading! So Nora gave up on Kryhi because she got moved by Cry coming to rescue Kryhi despite being weak Little did she know that Cry planned Kryhi’s attack on Code because Master~ wa kami! And the dogeza master got a new apprentice! Will Alisha be able to learn the legendary dogeza skill!?
