CH 117

The story of the novel-based game <The Abandoned World> proceeds after it has been ruined.

When Daniel, the man who saved them, is killed by Tahar forces, Damon and Arsene lose control and attack the capital.

‘Because Damon in the novel had enough strength to break down a castle wall with his bare hands.’

However, at the time of destruction, the three Chosen Children were still young.

Even Lydia, who is the most brilliant, is not old enough to show her political capabilities.

‘At that time, a hero named Sergey Fields appeared in the imperial political world.’

If Vikram was a character famous for missing a screw, Sergey was a character that made players nervous.

TL: missing a screw: It’s another way to qualify someone as crazy.

Great political clout and captivating public speaking skills.

Using them as weapons, he overcomes the limitations of his status as the descendant of a fallen baron and eventually becomes a member of the Council of Elders.

‘There, he is thinking about how to rebuild the Obelir with Lydia at the center.’

How much his efforts hindered the meeting between Damon, Arsene, and Lydia.

[“Lydia. There is no need to interact with other transcendental beings.”]

I remembered how in the novel version of The Abandoned World when Sergey interfered with Lydia’s love life, there were hundreds of comments about sweet potatoes.

‘Because the character Sergey had a great influence on Lydia.’

Long ago, the more the country collapsed and the system collapsed, the better talkers saw the light.

I remember that he had quite a few fans because of his ‘#Careful man’ team who sold Daniel’s authority, probably because of his ‘#skilled man’ aspect.

anyway.

In the original story, Sergey used his abilities for Tahar, who raised him.

‘But that Sergey applied for the scholarship I’m recruiting for.’

If I roughly count the time, it is a talent that should have already been noticed by Tahar at the end of last year or the beginning of this year.

“Your Highness, Grand Duchess. Did you find someone you know?”

Lina asked, seeing me staring at one person’s profile, furrowing my brow.

Well, it’s a bit difficult to say that I know him.

“A man named Sergey Fields. He’s a descendant of a baron, though they say he fell a few generations ago.”

“Yes. The Baron Fields family seems to have been ruined by the rebellion of the territories who could not endure the famine.”

“Ah….”

“Since the rest of the property was taken by the villagers who arrived at the mansion, it seems that he was only focused on studying at the academy attached to the local monastery.”

Before I knew it, Lina took out a folder titled <Scholarship Student Details – Summary> and was explaining it to me.

“If his grades were this good, I think other families would have offered him a scholarship.”

“Yes. Since he is not a commoner, it seems that several families have contacted him to adopt him or to raise him as a vassal.”

“Did he reject everything and apply to be my scholarship student?”

“Yes. I analyzed the reason, maybe it was because he wanted to get the support of the best person?”

Lina wasn’t the type to rub her palms together and flatter.

If, according to her analysis, Sergey made a strategic decision to cooperate with me—

‘This is awesome!’

I suppressed the laughter that was about to escape.

If Ilina asks why I laugh…

I can’t say it’s because I’ll soon meet a man who will later be called <the greatest genius in the history of the capital’s political world>.

In the afternoon, Damon and Arsene hurriedly prepared to visit the hospital in the Temple.

“Luke, Luke. Is Grandfather Hound really good?”

“He’s regained consciousness, but he’s still not fully recovered, so we’re just going to see him for a while.”

“Luke, the fact that your body can’t warm up means you can’t wake up, right?”

“It means you are not healthy. Oh, you don’t have to be so sad.”

“If Grandfather gets sick…is he leaving us again?”

“Or like Mother and Father…”

Chuuk.

The two looked at Luke with sad faces.

Luke couldn’t answer.

Although they were still young boys, they seemed to know that if Hound was not feeling well, they would have to say goodbye forever.

It has been revealed that their biological parents died because Duke Gelon was doing things like paternity tests.’

The world was busy praising the noble character of Grand Duke Prouse and the foresight of the Grand Duchess for lovingly protecting the children.

‘However, for young masters, a week was a time to accept the reality that they had ignored.’

‘It’s too short. Especially at this age.’

‘It was definitely different to be informed that your parents were not able to come back and that it was a reality.’

Unlike usual, Luke helped them change without tickling or playing around.

Soon after, Frey arrived ready to go out.

“Damon, Arsene. Grandfather Hound will be waiting for you, so hurry up and get in the carriage.”

“yes.”

“Daniel too?”

“Yes. He goes first to talk to the high priest.”

While riding the carriage to the temple, Frey explained to the children the buildings they could see out the window.

Thanks to that, by the time they got to the hospital room where Hound was staying, Damon and Arsene felt a little better.

“When you’re ready, let’s knock and go in.”

For the sake of the children, the conversation he had with the high priest stopped for a while and Daniel, who came here, said.

The two children exchanged a quick glance, then knocked on the door with their little hands.

Tok Tok!

“Grandfather Hound.”

“It’s my brother and me.”

Frey quickly added an explanation to his somewhat clumsy introduction.

“It’s Damon and Arsene from Grand Duke Prause.”

“Oh.”

The door opened while the two children panicked.

Damon and Arsene, who tried to greet him with a smile as they did when they first met with the Emperor, were unable to speak for a moment.

A gentle face similar to them. A strange power surrounds the whole body.

and…

‘Yellow and red.’

Arsene, who read the air currents emitted by the hound, knew immediately that he loved them very much.

“Grandfather….Heeing.”

A family that they meet for the first time after they have been born.

Watching Damon and Arsene fall into Hound’s arms without any resistance, Frey was immersed in a strange feeling.

‘There seems to be something instinctively aware of it. The children also seem to resemble Hound.’

The children who always longed for affection in their arms were realizing what ‘family’ was in the arms of others.

It brought tears to her eyes as Frey watched them slowly greet Hound and introduce themselves.

“Frey.”

Daniel held out the handkerchief he was holding to her. He felt the same way.

“Thank you.”

As she was gently wiping her wet eyes, Damon and Arsene spoke.

“It’s cool. Frey and I are always playing together. I play with balls, too.”

“You two are like your mother and father.”

“Wait for a moment…”

Hearing how the children introduced themselves, Frey had to go outside the hospital room for a moment and wipe away tears.
