Episode 259: Dream in the game becom reality

56. Teshe beginning of change (7)

The United States is probably quite troubled by now.

This is because I heard that opinions were divided internally, regardless of whether joining hands with me would be beneficial or not.

It is said that there are people who are displeased with my proposal, considering it a threat, while there are also people who accept favorably the idea of ​​crushing the head of China, a recalcitrant enemy.

Perhaps America will accept my offer.

They will also decide that they need to acquire new knowledge in order to adapt to the Earth's gradually changing environment.

I just have to wait quietly until their opinions come together.

Therefore, after offering a meeting to America, I immediately returned to Rondel.

Since the time ratio between Earth and Rondel is 10 to 1, staying on Earth for a long time is bound to be a burden.

Now that the situation in Korea and the County of Rayers has been resolved, it is time to take care of Rondel.

"I beg your pardon?"

However, immediately after returning to Rondel, I had to look surprised when I received a report from my subordinate.

"You two returned after 13 days."

The time I stayed on Earth was about 4 days.

Normally, Rondel should have lasted about 40 days, but I heard that only 13 days had passed.

To be honest, it wasn't a bad situation for me as being away for 40 days was a burden, but the implications of this were not very favorable.

"The time gap between the two worlds is narrowing."

"The coordination of the two worlds, Earth and Rondel, is progressing step by step."

My thoughts added to Arcia's thoughts.

Now I can feel the change in my body.

Of course, it is a change that no one will feel except for us who travel between the two worlds, but it is the realm of 'time' that no one except God can interfere with.

Even a 9th circle wizard who seemed to be an all-rounder could only demonstrate the ability to foresee the future to some extent, but was unable to jump or go back in time, and this was no different for dragons, elyos, and demons.

Do the Elyos and Demons of Earth really think they can prevent this situation?

As time goes by, the conviction that one should not oppose the goddess becomes stronger.

"Well, anyway, it's good that the burden of going to Earth is gone."

"Does Lord Exceed know about this change?"

Manuel Lucas's reincarnation, Lord Exceed, headed to the underworld of Earth, where he originally belonged.

There might be another person who acts unexpectedly like Lord Scream, so I prepared for that and slowly moved to implement the divine plan, including my suggestion.

For your reference, the proposal I made was to give Arcia and I some of the Creator's power that he had planned to give to Arc Scarlett.

Like Lord Scream, there may be beings from the underworld who do not take kindly to this, so Lord Exceed's activities will not be easy.

'I don't plan on getting deeply involved anyway.'

I was surprised by the sudden time change, but soon shrugged it off as if it were nothing else.

Since I was planning to take only what I could get and run away, I decided not to consider the complicated situation in the underworld.

"Is this Rondel?"

- Roaring. Loud.

For reference, when we return to Rondel from Earth this time, the number of people is five times greater than when we left.

The reason is that the party included many Earthlings, including the parents of the previous life on Earth, Kang Min-hee's parents, and Benjamin's younger sister.

The reason they came to Rondel is simple.

It was decided that Rondel was safer than Earth and this was to protect them.

Originally, I had planned to bring only myself and my family, but my parents from my previous life said they couldn't leave their siblings, parents, and other relatives in danger, so the scale ended up being bigger.

When they saw me with a completely changed appearance, they often asked if I was really Kim Min-gi, but when they saw my palace located in the world of Rondel, they were completely intimidated.

It was not easy to match the castle with an old-fashioned atmosphere and the appearance of middle-aged Koreans wearing colorful functional clothing.

"Please take care of my relatives so that they don't do anything wrong."

At my request, my parents smiled and said they would understand.

"By the way, have you really achieved success?"

As he frequently received reports from his subordinates and moved around with his relatives, a cousin on his mother's side, like Kang Min-hee, spoke to him.

'Was his name Kang Hyun-gi?'

In my past life, he was my cousin who was 2 years older than me, but now that I was born in Rondel and lived there for 22 more years, I can no longer call him my older brother.

Rondel's 22 years were a little more than 2 years on Earth.

Therefore, combined with my previous life, I lived to be 44 years old, and his current age was 26.

"I was lucky."

Perhaps he was oblivious to my harsh response, or perhaps because he was excited about living the life of the upper class in a new world, but he kept talking nonsense with a smile on his face.

"Can I learn magic or swords?"

After belatedly remembering that he liked Japanese cartoons and animations, I looked at Kang Hyeon-ki's abilities with a magnifying glass.

Considering the Earth's environment, I thought there would be no such talent, but surprisingly, it comes with an ability called 'horsepower (low)'.

"It's not high, but it seems like you have the minimum requirements to become a wizard."

"Oh, really?"

Magic (low) and intellectual ability and learning ability are 'medium', so as long as you get a good teacher, you will be able to become a regular wizard (3-4 circles).

However, his age is an obstacle.

Ordinary wizards or aspiring knights receive training from a young age, so they may not be able to become regular wizards.

"I want to learn magic. Is it possible?"

"Okay, I'll appoint someone suitable as your teacher."

"Thank you, thank you!"

He wasn't a very close person, and the only reason I briefly accepted his request, as he seemed to be under some kind of illusion, was because I was tired of talking for a long time.

However, my relatives' eyes sparkled as if they were feeling something from my reaction.

In response, I clicked my tongue and told her to ask the maids if she needed anything in the future, and assigned maids belonging to the palace interior.

In the process, I had to ask my parents for an additional favor.

"Please tell me that if you behave strangely, you will be sent back to Earth."

"Okay, I understand. But don't worry too much. "They are all good people."

I feel that way because the two of you are nice.

Basically, I didn't trust anyone other than my parents.

"But will it be okay? If your parents who raised you here feel uncomfortable with us... ."

"Do not worry. Because I already told you. "They don't object to anything I do."

"okay?"

"I'll find a place for you sometime."

"It's good for us."

The meeting of my parents from my past life and my parents from my current life.

It's going to be quite awkward for each other, but I hope they can become close friends if possible.

"Your Highness, you have returned."

As I passed through the long corridors of the Gongwangseong and approached my office, aides from the Rondel Peace Organization, who had waited in advance, bowed their heads to me.

The person standing at the center of the aides is Count Stella Elfrid, known as the Ice Princess of the Brigham Empire.

As she raised her head and smiled at me, the word 'Daebak' flowed from the mouth of Kang Hyun-ki, who was following behind me.

I asked Count Elfrid, trying to ignore his reaction of admiration every time he saw a beautiful woman.

"What is the current situation in the member countries?"

"All the countries of Rondel have agreed to join the peace organization."

"Good for you. Thank you for your hard work."

"no. "It's all thanks to your reputation."

Count Elfrid tilted his head for a moment as he looked at the colorful crowd behind me, but then he didn't pay much attention and took up additional business.

"Actually, the saint has been staying in Gongwang Castle for the past few days."

"Your Majesty?"

"Yes, I think you have something you want to say to His Majesty the Duke. "I told him that he didn't know when I would return, but he said he would wait and stayed here."

"What about work?"

"I guess he passed it on to the saint."

He was a saint who was completely treated as a subordinate by a saint.

I don't know if Ivril's desire to meet me is due to personal feelings or if she has other business to attend to, but there is no reason to refuse the saint's request to meet me.

So I nodded that I understood.

"All right. "I guess we can have dinner together with the saintess tonight."

"I will tell you that."

I recalled something I had forgotten and called out to Count Elfrid again, who was about to turn his back and retreat.

"On your next trip to Earth, Count Elfrid will go with you. "I think I'll be meeting leaders from many countries."

Count Elfrid responded with a bright smile, saying that he also wanted to go to Earth and thanking him for the suggestion.

Then, she left, and her cousin Kang Hyeon-gi, who was staring at Count Elfrid from behind, spoke up.

"Who is that woman? "It's very pretty."

I didn't forget to warn him.

This is not Korea.

It's Rondel.

"Behave wisely. This is a feudal society. "If you get out of the eyes of nobles, you go to hell."

"Uh, uh. okay. Did I say too much? sorry."

"You just need to know."

I smiled and spoke to the head deacon.

"Please show the guests to their rooms."

"Yes, Your Highness."

After cleaning up my relatives, I finally entered the room and threw myself onto the bed with a sigh.

"For some reason, it looks like I'm going to have an accident?"

"Relatives?"

"No matter how free-spirited the world is, I still see a few people who are clueless."

Arcia's reaction was quite bitter.

I couldn't help but smile at the sight of her so humane appearance.

"Let's keep an eye on it."

"Okay, then."

Honestly, all I have to do is protect my parents.

Other than that, people are not interested.

Even if Kang Min-hee's parents and Benjamin's younger sister are taken care of, I think the rest are just lumps.

Relatives may treat their parents well, but that is not the same as treating them as guests, not as family members.

I ignored the presence of my relatives and pulled Arsia into a hug.

-Tiik! Tweet!

But then.

The device notified me that I was wearing it, and an unexpected message came to mind.

[There is something new to confirm. Could you please visit us for a moment? -Chester]

It was a message from pension manager Chester.

The atmosphere was good for a while, but I sighed and took out my virtual reality goggles for the first time in a while when the content was difficult to ignore.

* * *

After reaching max level in Chronicle Online and completing the final quest, the abilities in the game were no longer added to real life to become stronger.

Still, I am constantly accessing Chronicle Online, because there are numerous materials left behind by Archduke Lucas and the Foundation Manager Chester, who can be said to be my advisor.

[Welcome to the Lawrence Magic Tower Online Branch.]

Immediately after meeting the reincarnation of Archduke Lucas, I blocked all routes through which he could have accessed the base.

In addition, the organization was moved to a new framework, which was named the Lawrence Magic Tower Online Branch.

"Are you here?"

The appearance of Lawrence's Magic Tower online branch was not much different from Manuel Lucas' Magic Tower.

When I entered, the pension manager, Chester, greeted me as always.

"I looked into what you asked me to investigate earlier."

"Seeing as how you called me so urgently, I guess it paid off?"

"That's right."

I had given him one instruction while heading to Earth.

The instructions began with this remark made by Lord Exceed.

'Chester's memories aren't perfect either. Some important information has been modified or deleted.'

Since I thought of Chester as an exact replica of Archduke Lucas' memories, I had no hesitation in accepting his knowledge.

And it was the same for Chester himself.

However, I had to feel an inexplicable sense of discomfort from that line that Lord Exceed threw without notice.

So I gave these instructions to Chester.

'Let's investigate what memories Archduke Lucas rewrote or deleted.'

Thus, a situation arose where Chester had to question and investigate the memories left behind by Archduke Lucas, who was essentially himself, and as a result, he achieved some results.

"Look at this."

Next, he displayed a holographic image in front of me.

"This?"

In the video, there was a familiar background, and I could see that it was the 'Way of the Goddess', a sanctuary located in the sacred city of Everhill.

A sanctuary where it is said that only saints and saints can climb the Goddess' Path.

Of course, that law has been broken recently with the rise of Emperors Brigham and Reinhardt, but until then, it was considered an absolute law.

However, it does not mean that there were no surprises in the past.

Just one person.

Because there was an exception: Manuel Lucas.

"This is a video taken by someone else when Manuel Lucas ascended the path of the goddess."

The video contained a meeting between the goddess and Manuel Lucas.
