My Disciples Know That I Am Strong

Episode 8. As expected, the imperial family is rotten. (1)

“Don’t tell me in advance. Never try to use force without my direction.”

I spoke to the two heroes who had been openly showing hostility ever since they entered the imperial palace.

The breathing of the two heroes, Iris and Maria, was severely disrupted.

Perhaps the two of them are thinking, ‘Wouldn’t it be possible to kill the emperor now?’

From their point of view, now, when they entered the imperial palace, would be the most appropriate opportunity to decapitate the emperor.

But as long as there was a prince who had the same mindset as the emperor, there was no point in cutting the emperor’s throat.

Besides, the emperor will die sooner or later even if we don’t do anything.

There was only five years left. There was no need to get our hands dirty.

“Do you understand?”

“Yes.”

Tina answered right away.

“…… All right.”

Iris nodded as she got her breathing right. She was extraordinary

“… ….”

But Maria didn’t answer until the end.

The desire to destroy the imperial palace right now was evident.

I can’t meet the crown prince like this.

If you meet someone in a state where you can’t calm down, you may have an accident.

I glanced at the back of the black glow man’s head and then stopped. He turned and stood in front of Mary.

Her way is blocked, and her feet stop. She slowly raises her head and looks at me.

“Answer me, Maria.”

“… ….”

“You know I don’t like to say it twice, right?”

Maria bit her lower lip. Her clenched fists trembled at her.

She seemed to be contemplating whether to prioritize her feelings or to listen to me rationally.

Honestly, I understand her feelings.

Even I would not have been able to stand it if my family had been slaughtered unilaterally. I would have killed him somehow.

However, if you act like that, you will be on a direct train to the bad ending.

Knowing that, I had no choice but to prevent their resentment from leaking out.

“Maria, I told you to answer.”

“…… Yes.”

I reluctantly opened my mouth. Do the answer

“Don’t try too hard.”

“Why…… Should I? For sure… I know there are good people like Master, but-“

“Don’t talk nonsense.”

There is nothing good about talking too long.

This is the Imperial Palace.

It is a space where the emperor’s entourage is bound to be countless. What they see and hear, the Emperor will see and receive.

There was nothing good about deliberately giving information.

“But… !”

I can’t make her rationally understand her still young.

If I tell her what I know about her, I might be able to convince her. But I wish I didn’t know yet.

It was obvious how burdensome it would be to tell kids who are only 13 years old now, ‘You have a duty to save the world.’

So, the limit was to ask you to stay calm.

‘Be quiet, I’ll beg you.’

“Maria, are you going to become enemies with me?”

“!”

Maria’s eyes shake violently. She looks at me blankly as she lets go of her tightly biting lips.

Hesitation and conflict are revealed on the face.

She seemed to value me as much as she wanted to avenge her own.

Three years ago, people talked about just using each other, saying that we should only think about the purpose, and not trembling, but it seems we can’t ignore the bond that has accumulated over the years.

“That… ….”

“Maria.”

I crouched down, muttering her name.

“…… Yes.”

“You don’t trust me?”

“No, never… It’s not… ….”

“Do you remember when I said to believe in me if you don’t believe in the world? Then you… Gave me a positive answer. Was that a lie?”

“No! Never… Absolutely not.”

“Then it will be fine.”

Said, straightening her bent knees.

“Yes?”

“I will not betray you no matter what. Just remember that Any other worries are just extravagance.”

“…… I understand, Master.”

Maria’s expression only then brightens a little.

Malbonsae is young, but it seemed that the words of whether they would become enemies were well covered.

Anyway, the whole problem is the expression management skill.

It is true that there was flexibility, but there was no doubt that it was still the cause of all the incidents.

“Is the conversation over?”

“…… Okay.”

“You better control it. If there is any trouble in the imperial family because of your disciple, all humans related to you will be beheaded.”

Beheading…….

I don’t know if you know that most of the people I’m related to are strong.

I was really curious about how the beheading would be done when the kids behind me right now were enough to destroy the imperial palace.

Of course, I know that the black light birds are not a weak group.

The reason why the S-class couldn’t refuse and followed the orders of the imperial family was because they had power that even the S-class couldn’t do anything about.

If you were simply helping each other with money, it would have been difficult to manage the adventurers. Especially if it was a different race like Urca.

Then why is the imperial family acknowledging my recklessness?

It may have been due to the previous knight commander’s duel, but it was because I was ‘overinterpreting’ my power.

As he must gather his current forces in preparation for the succession war in the future, he must have judged that his position as emperor could be in jeopardy if his power diminished while fighting me.

So even if I act recklessly, I have no choice but to notice.

Besides, even if you’re not my apprentice, you might think it’s even more troublesome now that warriors with tremendous talent have appeared.

Considering the various complex situations, it could be seen that the possibility of him doing nonsense to me was remarkably low until he sat in the emperor’s seat.

“If you can, do it. The empire will disappear on that day.”

Of course, I’m not going to get rid of it. The kids will get rid of it. What.

He stared at me with his eyes narrowed, then turned his head away.

“If you are going to die, it will be because of that ignorant tongue.”

“Then it must be because of those open eyes that you are dying.”

“I thought about it before, but he’s a cheeky guy. My teeth still tremble when I think of the courtesy you did to His Highness the Crown Prince!”

“So what?”

“You don’t even deserve to meet His Highness the Crown Prince.”

As he said that, the man’s hand was about to go behind his back.

“Don’t pull that out. The moment I pull it out, I’ll cut off the arm holding the weapon.”

Iris said, lowering her voice. Her fluffy fox tail soars toward the sky.

“Master told me to be patient, so I am patient.

The members of the Black Gwangjo are unable to move at the immense energy that comes from Iris’ body.

She gave goosebumps just by looking at her bloody eyes.

“…… Stop and go My business is not to kill you, but to meet Prince Chris.”

The man who saw me closed his eyes for a long time before opening them. He can’t help but let go of his hand from his weapon.

“There is no second time.”

I watched the man step ahead and stroked Iris’ hair.

“You can stop.”

“Yes, Master.”

Her tail, which had risen up, drops and sways gently.

“If you continue to be a threat like now, you can move. But best of all, no fights happen. Understand that well.”

“Okay.”

I took one last look at the warriors’ expressions before moving again. It seemed quite peaceful now.

“Prause, would you like to apply protection like before?”

I shook my head at Ariel’s suggestion.

“All right. Let’s go.”

It would be embarrassing if an accident occurred due to a sudden activation after receiving divine protection, so it was better not to have it.

* * *

“It’s been a while, Prause.”

“… Right. Prince Chris.”

We thought we were going to head to the imperial throne room, but we stopped at the office of the prince unexpectedly.

Me, the three warriors, and Ariel sat on a long sofa. Chris was sitting at the head of the table, sipping his tea.

“Who is this woman?”

Looking at Ariel, he asked. If she is this beautiful, even the crown prince would be interested in it, right?

“…… Friend.”

I didn’t have a proper relationship, so I answered moderately.

Ariel looked at me with her eyes wider than ever. The bewildered expression was spectacle.

I wanted to ask what you were looking at, but I held back.

“Whoa. Aren’t you a lover?”

“We are friends.”

I said it with all my might so as not to talk behind my back. Do not weave unnecessarily.

“Looking at the ears, they look like elves……. Well, since I took the Beasts and the Elves as disciples, there shouldn’t be any problem with being friends with other races.”

I wonder what his reaction would be if he knew he was the King of Spirits. Really.

“So… …. Why did you call me?”

“Is it straightforward? Well, I don’t really like talking pointlessly. Say right away Oh, before that…… I want your disciple and this woman to go out.”

“…… Is it.”

“Master, I want to stay with you.”

When Tina refused, the others expressed their refusal clearly with their expressions.

“It only takes a moment. Stay out.”

If I thought I was strong, I wouldn’t attack. Being alone wouldn’t be dangerous.

But I am not worried about the warriors or Ariel. There would be no problem as it would be at the level of whether or not to win if all the imperial staff were brought.

I was just afraid that if I was worried, I would have an accident in my absence.

In the end, those who respect my will are led by the black light bird.

The door closes.

Since I went out with the black glow, the chances of eavesdropping through the door are slim.

Around the time the noise in the corridor gradually subsided, the prince stared at me with strange eyes for a while and then slowly opened his mouth.

“Prause, why did you accept other races as disciples?”
