My Magic Tools Are Selling Too Well

49 – Moonlight night (6)

A conference hall with an old-fashioned atmosphere.

Starting with the seat of honor guarded by the escort knights, various figures were seated side by side on both sides.

From the nobles and officials in charge of the country’s great and small affairs, to the presidents of different warrior societies such as the Magic Society and the Alchemy Society.

Even the leader of the Imperial Guard Knights and renowned warriors were seated on one side.

The aura they radiated was so intense, it seemed that ordinary people would get hurt just by being suppressed by the momentum.

against him

The person in the seat of honor is an ordinary middle-aged man who has a glimpse of the seasoned beauty of the years.

Tight clothes that look cumbersome even at first glance.

Gorgeous ornaments hung all over the body like a tattoo.

Even the dignity and dignity covering the conference hall secretly.

Among those gathered in the conference room,

There was no one who did not bow their heads toward him.

The most dignified being that rules the empire.

It was the Emperor, Pamela Lugend Apellice.

“so… What was the conclusion?”

The Emperor’s low voice echoed through the conference hall.

The home secretary seated next to him bowed his head deeply and replied.

“The dungeon, which turned out to be the residence of Venom Arcus, has been annihilated under the command of the Royal Guard, Your Majesty. Their leader, known as the high-ranking demon Foylinon, was not there, but they meticulously attacked the inside of the dungeon and caught all the vicious clans that had plagued the continent.”

“I heard that the difficulty level of the dungeon is quite high. Were there any casualties?”

“Yes, Your Majesty. Thanks to the magic tool called Anti-Venom recently created by the academy alchemists, I was able to easily defeat them without being poisoned.”

[Anti-Venom], a magic tool created by the academy undergraduates and professors who joined the gate exploration.

Thanks to the high-end magic tool that immunizes against all kinds of special poisons, it was possible to complete the raid without much difficulty even in dungeons where extreme poisons prevailed.

In fact, if the possibility of poisoning could be ruled out, Venom Arcus, who lacked combat power, was a demon that even aspiring warriors could easily deal with.

“Welter Bluecliffe, not everything he said was true. ”

Welter Bluecliff.

As a professor at the Academy of Magic, he was degraded to a prisoner sentenced to life imprisonment after the recent interrogation and trial were completed.

The crime was indirectly causing the death of empire citizens for personal reasons.

From the outside, he was a criminal who had committed a great sin, but…

In fact, from the perspective of the Empire, he was a scholar who passed on important knowledge about the gate.

An invasion gate that opens once every 10 years.

The fact that it can be created artificially and appear in the form of a special gate.

In other words, even if it is not a demon war, you can summon demons.

This is because these shocking facts revealed through a series of events hinted at the possibility that a ‘pseudo-Evil War’ could occur at any time.

“In the end, there was no gate back to the Pandemonium… .”

Welter Bluecliff insisted on clearing the dungeon as soon as possible while being interrogated.

The basis was that the ‘vampires’ who looked after Venom Arcus could create a gate to return to the demon realm.

However, Venom Arcus never returned to the Pandemonium.

Although it took more than two weeks for the Royal Guard’s annihilation operation, they did not take any action.

No action was shown to return to the demon realm.

Perhaps, contrary to Welter Bluecliffe’s expectations, it was impossible to create a gate that could return to the Pandemonium.

“your majesty. Can I tell you about that part?”

At those words, a woman who was seated at the far end of the conference hall bowed and opened her mouth.

Regarding this matter, the vice-president of the Pension Society, who took on an advisory role on behalf of the president of the society.

It was Yenitail Ferrian.

Originally, when it comes to magic circuits and gate research, it is alchemists who show higher achievements.

This is because when manufacturing magic tools, the organic relationship between circuits is studied in the most depth, and through this, a completely new phenomenon (magic tool production) is evoked.

The gate knowledge of the alchemists, accumulated over many years of research and experience, was difficult for wizards to follow.

Professor Bluecliffe, who reached the level of a master by repeating research alone for personal revenge, was a special case.

“Is it Baron Ferrian? tell me.”

After the emperor’s permission was granted, Yennytail carefully placed the stones he had prepared in advance on the table in the conference room.

Currently, with this problem, the magic material that has emerged as the biggest topic.

It was [Eternal Monument Piece].

“This is a fragment of the Eternal Tombstone, a magical material that Welter Bluecliffe used to craft the gate. It is said that most of the fragments are possessed by vampires, a clan of vampires. The result of a joint research with the Magic Society and the research conducted according to Welter Bluecliffe’s statement. We have confirmed that we can implement the transfer magic inherent in the invasion gate.”

The eyes of the people in the conference hall were focused on the stones as if they were curious.

They had only heard rumors of knowing, and it was the first magic material they had seen.

The emperor nodded lightly and looked at Yenitail.

“Go on.”

“The important point is that this teleportation magic is not simply limited to the direction from the Pandemonium to the continent.”

“Isn’t it limited to one side?”

“That’s right. In other words, it is also possible to create a gate from the continent to the Pandemonium. Also, unlike the black and red gates whose creation coordinates cannot be determined, this gate is in the opposite direction, so we can set the coordinates ourselves. These points are the conclusions reached after joint research by the president of the Society of Magic and the president of the Alchemy Society, and we believe that vampires, a blood-sucking clan, will definitely be able to produce them.”

“… … !”

Surprise crossed the faces of everyone in the conference room.

Vampires can also make gates.

That fact meant that even though they could create a gate to return to, they abandoned Venom Arcus, the same demon.

“We haven’t yet figured out how many pieces of the Eternal Monument the vampires have… The number of gates they may create in the future is immeasurable. ”

Vampire clan, Vampires.

The worst demons that attack humans at night and suck their blood, and pretend to be humans with their hearts out during the day.

After being defeated in the Demon War four years ago, it is a feat of the continent that secretly lives among humans by making use of their characteristics.

In the past 4 years, countless kill squads have been formed to catch them, but they have not been very effective due to their ability to hide themselves well.

They may be on the rise again.

Based on the artificial gate that can freely transfer demons.

The Emperor let out a slight groan.

“Hmm… Cheek Academy President. Is this true?”

The head of the Magic Society, who was sitting in the corner, quickly lowered his head when his name was called.

“Yes, Your Majesty. This is the content of the report that has already been uploaded to the Home Secretary.”

“Are you sure vampires can build gates?”

“Yes, Your Majesty. Vampires are a family of demons with a good understanding of magic. There is no way they couldn’t have mastered the magic that Welter Bluecliffe created over two years.”

“It means it might be dangerous.”

“No additional gates have been revealed yet, but I would guess.”

To those words of the president of the Cheek Academy, the emperor nodded heavily.

If you continue with a complacent attitude, one day you will be shocked and shed a lot of blood.

In a situation like this, a decision is needed.

Even a small country on the continent would not let down its guard if it was a demon, but the empire leading the demon war at the forefront could not hesitate.

“The Lords, follow the orders.”

Everyone deeply bowed their heads at the cold voice that spread throughout the conference hall.

to find a better solution.

It was a meeting where the highest authorities in each academic world were convened.

None of them could disobey the emperor’s orders.

“Based on the highest security level, we declare a war of annihilation against vampires. You need to find out the number and location of the gates they have created, and retrieve the remaining fragments of the Eternal Monument. So that the interior officers and staff can write a report on the most efficient way and operation by tomorrow.”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

“and… ”

Hearing the staff’s loud reply, the emperor’s gaze reached the tall man sitting right next to him.

Brilliant blond hair and blue eyes.

Despite not possessing a weapon in accordance with the imperial regulations, he was a man with an overwhelming energy flowing around him.

“Lord Liquid.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Ludgale Liquid.

An honorary aristocrat who was born as a commoner and was given the surname of Liquid.

He defeated Beelzebub, the demon king of gluttony, in the demon war 4 years ago, and rose to become the best warrior on the continent.

He was the hope of the continent and the strongest knight in the empire.

The emperor looked at Ludgale with eyes full of trust.

“I think Kyung will have to suffer this time too. Can you serve as the captain of the special vampire killing squad?”

“No problem, Your Majesty.”

Rudgale answered with a low voice, lowering his head.

It’s been several years since he quit the Guard Knights, but he was still a sword fighting for the continent and the empire.

“Earl Polgram, Duke of Wellington.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

This time, Count Polgram, who served as the head of the Knights Guard, and Duke Wellington, who served as the head of the academy, bowed their heads at the same time.

To the two people who took on the role of completely opposite personalities, the emperor brought out an unexpected proposal.

“We plan to assign about 20% of the Guard Knights to escort the academy. You may consult with one another so that you may determine the personnel to be assigned to the escort and the training grounds and lodgings to be provided to them.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“… It’s a presumptuous word, but Your Majesty. May I ask why?”

As befits the head of a noble family of knights, Count Polgram followed the emperor’s orders without hesitation.

However, the dean of the academy, the Duke of Wellington, could not hide his doubts.

It was because it was too sudden to be an escort for the Guard Knights to be assigned to the academy.

The emperor stroked his chin and continued.

“I heard that the biggest contributor to the conquest of Venom Arcus in this case was the academy’s undergraduate students. Am I right?”

“That’s right. An undergraduate student from the Faculty of Alchemy is coming.”

“If you are a shady vampire, you don’t know what to do after knowing this. You can’t give the empire’s talent to the demons. Sirs, let them escort the talents of the academy until this killing operation progresses to a certain level.”

A family of vampires, vampires are demons after all.

Even though he abandoned Venom Arcus, he was an academy undergraduate who invented a magical tool that caused enormous damage to the demons.

I never knew what would happen if I found out about him.

For quite understandable reasons,

Wellington’s Chancellor felt uneasy.

Since ancient times, the academy and the imperial family have not intervened in each other’s territory like inviolability…

With this incident, the emperor broke that unspoken rule.

So while he lowered his head, he couldn’t hide his displeasure.

“… I take orders.”

But orders are orders.

At the same time as the President of Wellington bowed his head, detailed instructions were given to each department or society afterwards.

The emergency meeting supervised by the imperial family ended like that.

＜Selection of personnel dispatched to the academy＞

– Select dispatched personnel due to collaboration between the Imperial Academy and the Imperial Guard Knights.

This personnel will continue to train and work at the academy until a separate Hwangmyeong occurs, and will be provided with accommodation and various amenities.

Interested personnel are requested to apply to the vice-captain, and notice that if there are not enough applicants, they will be randomly selected.

One day, suddenly, a notice was posted on the training ground within the knights.

Karin stared blankly at it.

This is because the content of the announcement was not immediately understood.

It’s not an academy demonstration, but you can go out and work for a few months at all?

Is there training at the academy?

‘What kind of windfall is this… ?’

Working in the Guard Knights, the thing that bothered me the most was having to stay away from Sachere.

It was a miraculous announcement that completely removed the burden from the heart.

After Karin read the announcement carefully.

I moved my steps and started to fill out the application form.

I thought I wouldn’t see him until summer break,

Maybe we’ll see sooner.
