Rebirth Just Before The 10th Circle

The emperor nodded.

Despair appeared on the count's face with him.

Then the emperor turned around and said.

“Everyone must have listened and watched. Then make your decision now. Whose words do you think are right? Now, whoever thinks Count Powells is right here, raise your hand.”

As soon as the emperor's words were finished, there was a chilling silence.

No one raised their hand easily.

If it had been a way of writing it down on a note instead of raising a hand, I didn't know that someone would take the side of the count.

But when the emperor opened his eyes in blue, no one raised his hand.

When no one raised his hand, the Emperor opened his mouth again.

“Then raise your hand if you think what this young commoner is saying is true.”

Silence found again.

But the silence was different from that of Count Powells.

Because there was a quiet hand raised from one side.

Kay and Sasha were the first to raise their hands.

Then Zeppelin and Winston raised their hands.

Count Powells' complexion darkened as he looked at the four hands that rose suddenly.

That wasn't the end.

Another hand came up from one side.

The true identity of the behemoth was none other than the Duke of Brunhild.

he said with a calm face.

“With this kind of evidence, even a passing orc would know that the boy named Merlin was right.”

It was a small voice, but Duke Brunhild's words were accurately heard in the ears of the nobles in the banquet hall.

and after a while.

"i See."

“If you can’t even think of this after seeing it, will you become a guy that isn’t even an orc?”

Allen, Marquis Clark raised their hands.

After that, the nobles who were reading the flow began to raise their hands after them.

Suddenly, it became difficult to find someone who did not raise their hands in the banquet hall.

Seeing this, the king said:

“Looks like you’ve made up your mind.”

"...lungs, Your Majesty...."

“Earl Powells. Be honest. Do not intensify my anger with repeated negation.”

At the Emperor's warning, Earl Powells shut his eyes tightly.

'It's over...'

Everything is over.

The emperor had already seen the lie.

Even if you are more naive and unclean here, the Emperor will eventually uncover everything.

If so···.

'The Count Powells . . . would be a jerk.'

It was the worst.

All that he has accomplished will be in vain, and he will disappear.

If so, he had to make it at least ... to keep it alive.

"···sire···."

“Is there nothing to say?”

The Count bit his lip.

He made a squeaky voice.

“…the truth is coming.”

“·················ogue.”

“I .

“Does that mean he admits that what he said was a lie?”

“...that is, it is.”

The Count tightly closed his eyes.

“Hmm… that’s right.”

said the emperor, who wiped his chin.

“Earl Powells.”

“Yes, yes, Your Majesty...”

“You have desecrated me, the Emperor, by falsehood. It wasn't even once. How would you like me to accept this?”

“... Lungs, Lungs, Your Majesty! Wealth, please… have mercy…”

“Have you no intention of telling the truth before you ask me for mercy?”

“I, please...”

"royal guards."

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

“What are you doing? Isn't the treason who despised Jim holding up his head!"

As soon as the emperor's roar rang, knights in iron armor appeared and knelt down Earl Powells.

And then the emperor's angry voice.

“Look! Count Powells managed the academy, the property of the state, and took privately profit, and he did not stop there, he continued to lie and despise me as the emperor. This is absolutely a sin equivalent to treason!”

The emperor's sentence was dropped.

“Prize Earl Powells in the imperial dungeon! That will be the tomb of Earl Powells! In addition, I order that Count Powells to collect all the profits he made while running the academy to the state treasury and recover his title.”(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

“Lung, Your Majesty!”

The count screamed at the emperor's sentence.

The emperor's gaze upon seeing this was unbearably cold.

“The Count deserves to be executed and should be held responsible for the sins of the future generations. The guards lead the count.”

“Lung, Your Majesty! Forgive me! sire!"

Earl Powells was dragged away by the Guards, and Enzo, who was watching this, was terrified and collapsed.

Everything was sorted out, and the Emperor opened his mouth, looking at Merlin.

"Congratulations. You were right.”

"Yes."

At the Emperor's words, Merlin was calm.

Rather, he had a face that he knew it would be like this.

But there was some dissatisfaction somewhere on her Merlin's face...

“By the way, Your Majesty...”

“Why?”

“How is the bet like this?”

"···Huh?"

The emperor gave him a puzzled look.

On the other hand, Avalon and all of them watched Merlin closely with a face that said, 'I hope...'.

just as expected.

“No matter how I look at it, it seems that I won the bet, but if that happens, what about my money? Can't you win the bet and go empty handed?"

The emperor's eyes changed to round as he saw Merlin, who was so carefree and even smiled.

Seeing this, Kei quickly took the notebook out of his pocket.

“When making a deal in a situation where you don’t get caught, be proud even in front of His Majesty the Emperor… memo…”

“·················ogue.”

Watching Kei play hard with her pen, Sasha vowed to one day take the notebook and check it.

Past Relationships (1) - End of Volume 4

past relationship (1)

“ね....”

The emperor felt unbearable joy at the sight of Merlin staring blankly at him.

“Ah ha ha ha!”

Suddenly, the emperor burst into laughter.

The nobles were surprised to see such a sight, and their eyes widened.

Never before had the emperor smiled like this when he was watching state affairs, at an imperial palace event, or even when the Crown Prince was born.

The emperor, who let out a cool laugh, said with a slight smile.

“Cancer, that’s it. I won a fair bet, and there should be a reward for it.”

The Emperor seemed to be very fond of Merlin.

He had no choice but to do so.

Earl Powells held a fairly significant stake in the dukes.

The Earl's network is also his personal network, and the income from various businesses he runs has flowed into the peasant group.

He was able to defeat Count Powells so easily, so it was a very advantageous situation for the emperor, and how could Merlin, who induced it, not look pretty?

"Yeah, I'll definitely give you 2 million gold while recovering Earl Powells' property."

"Thank you."

At the sound of 2 million gold coming over, Merlin quickly bowed his head.

His head, which had stood upright in front of the Grand Master, was too easily swayed in front of the money.

Guffin, the king of the dwarves, was shocked to see it.

But what?

that it is Merlin.

Merlin, who bowed his head, was ecstatic, but the Emperor's words were not over.

“Hmm… your ball is so big, you can’t finish it with only 2 million gold. Let's see... What should I give you?"

Merlin's eyes lit up when he said that he would give 2 million gold plus a bonus.

The Emperor pondered what to give Merlin.

Soon he made a decision.

“Yeah, that would be good.”

"What is?"

“The Count Powells will step down from running the academy and he will take over all management of the academy in the imperial family.”

“···········?”

“If that happens at the end of the day, I will give you 10% of the academy’s operating stake.”

Surprise spread throughout the banquet hall at the emperor's proposal.

The emperor is now offering to give a 17-year-old boy some of the operating rights of the imperial family.

But when he heard this, Merlin's face was not very good.

“I have a question for you.”

“It’s a question, so try it.”

“Once I get that… operating stake, do I have to do something too?”

At Merlin's words, the Emperor burst into laughter again.

He knew immediately what Merlin was reluctant to.

“Heh heh! don't worry The Academy will be managed by the Imperial Family. Of course, a 10% stake in the operation would be enough to participate in the academy events, but would you?”

"no. I will never do it.”

I was out of my mind?

Merlin was sullen.

It was hard work for her now that she was called to the lab.

If it wasn't for Avalon's party at the academy, he would have left immediately to go to Nabal, the capital of the empire.

In the meantime, it was a specification from Merlin's side to have one more hump other than the lab.

The emperor said whether he had guessed Merlin's thoughts.

“Then there will be no problem. You just need to get the academy’s revenue for your operating stake.”

“Do you mean . . . every month?”

"Yes. every month.”

“········································································?!”

A very happy situation where there are no obligations, but rights and interests.

Merlin's mouth was torn left and right.

Even if he just sits still, the money goes into his pocket.

Is there anything else in the world better than free?

Merlin shook his head coldly.

“I am deeply grateful for the high and high mercy of His Majesty the Emperor, and for such grace as Ha Hae!”

Merlin's head fell to the ground.

Seeing him like that for the first time, Avalon and all were at a loss for words.

On the other hand, the nobles around them kept an eye on Merlin.

'At only 17 years old, I got 10% of the academy's stake...'

'It is not at the level of ignoring commoners... A child who will become a nobleman if His Majesty immediately grants the title of supreme victory.’

The visible favor of the emperor.

A young 17-year-old boy who received the attention of the Absolute was bound to become the object of interest to the nobles.

Count Powells had been thrown out of the Emperor's eyes only a short time ago, but no one cares anymore.

Everyone was watching Merlin Bay.

It was said that Merlin's appearance was unconventional and shocking.

The Emperor, who was looking at Merlin, who hardly raised his head, exclaimed in a loud voice.

“Okay, this is all you need to do for entertainment. As it is a celebration of the 300th anniversary of the Empire, everyone should enjoy it. Especially on the last day of the banquet, we have prepared a good spectacle for you, so don't miss out and participate.

As soon as the emperor's shout was over, the Imperial Palace Band started playing.

The sound of music quietly spreads through the banquet hall.

After this, the emperor quietly left.

After the emperor who gave Merlin generously disappeared, Merlin asked Kay.

“Hey, Kay.”

"Yeah."

“Didn’t the emperor say it was the last day?”
