chapter 8
I see your code (8)
“It’s really big.”
The tower was really huge. There was no need to ask people for directions. Just lift your head and look at the sky. It’s like the eyes of Sauron.
Thanks, it was easy to get to. Originally, Darin and Reynold were supposed to come, but I refused.
I feel like a parent following my child’s hospital. To be honest, at this age, I am ashamed. But when I think about it again, isn’t this kind of sentiment itself something that teenagers want to do? … … stop thinking
Anyway, the tower was exactly the image I had envisioned. The problem is, I only imagined the shape of the tower, but never designed it.
Now I don’t know if I’m really into the game world, or if I’m living in my imagination because of autism.
I thought I had accepted reality, but I guess not yet.
My head was confused for a while, but I made up my mind again.
What if it’s just your imagination? What I feel is real. In reality, there is no guarantee that I am not a ‘popular brain’. All I can do is live to the fullest.
As I approached the counter, the receptionist spoke to me.
“What business did you visit?”
“I’m here to measure the magic pass.”
“Oh, you are. One hour left until the start of the test… … . Would you like to go up early?”
“I will go up.”
I thought about whether to come for exercise, but I was upset, and I thought I would go up and bruise.
“all right. The test costs 5 gold.”
“… … Here it is.”
Cost of living for 5 months for a family of 4 at one test.
It’s not my money, but my hands were shaking as I paid it. Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for this world to say that dragons can’t fly in a stream?
He grabbed his trembling hand and climbed up.

About ten minutes later, I saw a kid my age coming up. It was a guy with a sword, a guy with a bow, a bitch with clothes, etc. around him.
I felt a little sorry for Reynold and Darin. I was reluctant to bring the two of them along, but if I had known there would be such a guy, I would have come with them.
He lost interest and looked back at the little boy. Because the code was floating around with that guy.
[NPC-1-117-2]
Zaire Terberoz.
it was this guy I should have expected it just because people were running around in Layton at this time.
It was the third character I saw, but unlike Reynol and Darin, I wasn’t very pleased.
To be honest, I wasn’t really impressed.
It wasn’t even an important character.
I was about to turn off my mind and bruise again, but the guy who made eye contact with me came up to me.
“It’s the first time I see your face, what are you?”
“I’m seeing you for the first time. What are you?”
Zyre frowned at my words.
“I know everyone from Noblesse my age. But if it’s your first face, you’re not from Noblesse… … Well, you can tell just by looking at the clothes.”
“… … .”
I’m still upset, but why are you arguing with this bastard?
He didn’t answer because it was ridiculous, so he got more energetic and kept talking.
“Even commoners are being tested. The horse tower has also dropped a lot.”
“… … .”
“Looking at the situation, it seems that a commoner has invested all his fortune, how about getting a refund now? Even 5 gold is precious to commoners.”
I thought he would leave on his own if I ignore him, but he doesn’t show any signs of leaving.
I don’t like arguing with a little boy, but it’s been a while since a human who wants to chat with me so passionately, so I’m a little excited too.
To be honest, 5 gold was really precious money to me, so I cried a little. I remember when I gave it to you earlier and my hands were shaking. Facts make people sick.
“Do you play noble games in moderation? It’s ugly to see.”
“What, what?”
Zyre exclaimed excitedly.
“Aristocratic game? Did you tell me now?”
“Is there anyone else besides you? There is no king, what is the nobility? It’s worth praising from the point of view of conscience to make up words that don’t even make sense for a noble lesson.”
“Hey, this guy! Destroy me!”
annihilation? Where did you watch the historical drama?
The concept quality is just admirable.
“mercenary! Knock this guy down! The charge is ignoring me, the family of Gyre Terberots!”
At those words, a man with a sword from afar approached me, looked at me and staggered back.
Why are you doing that? Then I saw something familiar… … .
“Hey, do you know me?”
“… … no. I do not know.”
“Where do you think I saw it?”
“… … It must be an illusion.”
What a compliment suddenly.
“There aren’t many people I’m familiar with in this city… … All but a few good ones are all bad.”
“What are you saying now! mercenary! I’m going to knock him down right now!”
Despite Gyer Terberots’ words, the sword-bearing man continued to hide his face from me. It’s getting more and more suspicious.
“The bad side is also John X The bad side and the less bad side, man, which one is it?”
“… … Who is the worse John X?”
“There were people chasing after me to kill me. Half flew, half escaped.”
The mercenary’s complexion turned white. He seems to know that flying is not a metaphor. It’s also the one I met.
“I, I am not that one!”
“Oh, it’s on the training ground side.”
He continued towards the mercenary with a white complexion.
“I thought I was going to be cured for a week, but you got better quickly, didn’t you? He seems to have good recovery.”
“… … no. It still tastes like death.”
“Then why don’t you rest at home?”
The mercenary’s eyes widened at my words. Why is the Si X boy like this?
“… … There is no treatment fee… … .”
“… … .”
“It’s a job that all you have to do is stand still in the guild… … So I went out and tried to earn some money for treatment… … .”
“… … .”
“That little bastard is deliberately arguing here and there asking for money… … Every time I move, my body aches like death… … .”
Tears fell from the mercenary’s eyes, but he pretended not to know. A man’s tears deserve respect.
“Well, I’m sorry too. My father-in-law also asked me to make a living, but I must have been too harsh.”
“flaw… … heh heh… … .”
“Still, the fact that ten people gathered to threaten one kid crossed the line. Isn’t it?”
“Wow! yes… … Yes. sorry.”
“It’s okay to know. Don’t do that next time.”
“thank you… … .”
He pulled back with a mercenary with a bow.
“What are you doing now! Don’t you want to take money?”
“hey. If you’re going to jump, jump right in. Stop torturing poor old man.”
“… … Whoops! I will surely make you regret it!”
Saying that, Zaire Terberotz went back to the party. I don’t think I have the courage to jump on my own.
“No, just grab the concept… … .”
These days, even third-rate villains don’t use those lines.
Even in the game, he was authoritative and not cheap, but he didn’t say those lines. Is it because you were young?
profit.
Then an old man dressed as a typical wizard and a woman who appeared to be an assistant came in and looked around the hall.
“Hmm… … There are only two people this morning. It will be over soon.”
“Last week there was a lot of crowds. They usually come in the afternoon.”
“I’ll be in first, so explain and let me in.”
“All right.”
The assistant remained and looked at us.
“Well… … But what’s the atmosphere here? What happened?”
Gyre Terberotz looked at me and was sassy, and those who followed him kept their heads down. I didn’t say anything because I was embarrassed to have an argument with the little boy now.
When no one responded to his words, the assistant coughed heavily because he was embarrassed.
“It doesn’t matter. then… … Zaire Terberotz, please come in first.”
“Wait. I came first and waited.”
“This is the reservation list. Let’s see… … I made a reservation for Zyer Terberots 5 days in advance.”
no. Are you saying you made a reservation 5 days in advance and waited 50 minutes earlier? Embarrassed, Zaire Terberots dared to pass in front of me and said,
“huh. The common people are not even prepared enough.”
“… … .”
Yes, I hope you are thoroughly prepared. What kind of third-rate villain is sincere in this place? Isn’t it the norm to change the order with power?
Anyway, I made a reservation 5 days in advance and waited, but there is nothing to say.
Five minutes until he enters the room and comes out again.
Seeing her bright expression, I think the results were good. I didn’t know much, but the problem was that I had to come to where I was, not the party.
“People, I heard from the mercenaries before entering. Are you saying that you have no mana?”
“okay.”
“ね. Stupid and dull bastards. I heard that your servants are ignorant who do not understand that it is much more effective to practice magic while exercising. Dad did.”
“… … Oh yeah.”
“Stupid commoner. Don’t you know that the magic pass narrows when the body gets stronger? Your magic pass must be at least worth it. Do you know how many came out?”
I didn’t answer anything, but he was excited to talk to himself.
“It’s 87! It is said to be the highest number measured this year.”
“okay. congratulation.”
I was in awe at the little boy who was chatting with excitement. What did I do with this little boy?
“Stupid commoner. You’ve trained your body stupidly, so you’ll be lucky if you get to 30.”
“I know… … .”
“Stupid commoner. You look unhappy. Are you ready to understand the topic and apologize?”
“okay… … I was wrong.”
“Hmm. I’m glad you got a good grasp on the topic. In particular, I will accept an apology.”
“… … okay. Thank you.”
“What. It is natural to have a broad mind as a noblesse.”
“… … .”
Is that kind of bastard arguing here and there to pull out the mulberry?
As I was arranging the beats roughly, my assistant came out.
“The next person, please come in.”
“It’s your turn, commoner. Don’t be too disappointed if you come out low.”
“… … Thank you for your concern.”
After a rough greeting, I followed the assistant, and the old man who had first entered was standing in front of the stone slab. What kind of scale does it look like?
The old man said without looking at this.
“Take off your shoes and go up there.”
“yes.”
As I was taking off my shoes, I heard the old man and his assistant talking.
“It’s been a while since 87. Was your best last year 94?”
“It must have been 92. It was taken from the Argon Kingdom.”
“Argon Kingdom? I have a lot of greed too. The knights are saturated.”
“It’s rare to go over 90. Argon would be greedy.”
They opened their mouths among the chattering.
“I took off my shoes.”
“Then just go up there. Should I even tell you about this?”
“… … .”
I’m afraid that someone isn’t a magician, so I’m terribly rude.
As I quietly climbed the slate, I felt something spinning around me. is this magic It felt better than I expected.
The assistant came to check the records.
Then, looking at the recorded number, he shook his head and raised his head.
“uh… … Professor, do you think this is broken?”
“why? Are there no numbers?”
“No, that… … The number came out too high… … .”
“How many do you come out with?”
The assistant opened his mouth in a trembling voice.
“… … 168.”
