Chapter 178: Masters and Pawns

Nisreid, bring me tea and sweets.

Yes.

The girl approached with no expression on her face.

It was nice to meet you.

She bowed to me and left the garden with the empty teapot. Not even ten seconds later, she returned with a tray of snacks and a teapot.

After Nislade returned to the entrance, I said, Don't you despise me?

What do you mean?

I figured it was no wonder I was stabbed so soon after arriving.

I didn't raise heroes or run waiting rooms out of affection. We thoroughly examined their efficiency and value, and if they were unsatisfactory, they would be removed from the position, and if they were outstanding, we would promote them. The welfare facilities here were all for combat efficiency and stress management and were not intended for the welfare of the heroes.

Yurunette, who was listening to that, smiled slightly. They used us as pawns in the long run.

Yes.

Where is the grudge or not? The Master never discriminated against us, always gave us opportunities, and with the right decisions, led us to victory.

Yurunette gently touched the flower bud on the table.

Without the Master, our Niflheim would have rotted away long ago. Me and everyone else.

, I was silent.

That alone qualifies you.

If she thinks so,.

It may be difficult to understand, but if she believes that, there is no need to argue.

Anyway, it's an honor to meet you like this, Loki-sama. I was looking forward to this day. As I imagined, he is a dignified and wonderful person.

Yurnette rose from her chair, and she saluted again.

I took a sip of tea. It felt quite unusual.

It's late tonight. We have prepared a mansion on the 13th floor, so please stay there and come back tomorrow morning. I will also call Legion.

Is it a villa? So, have you thought about it?

I have prepared a place just for you, Master. Right in the middle of the thirteenth floor.

I looked up at the sky. It was gray-black with some gray streaks.

My evening observations are over. Jenna and Aaron are probably preparing to spend the night in the training camp dormitory.

I like the dormitory at the training camp.

Yurnette tilted her head.

I have no intention of sleeping in the villa. It means

.

I was once a master, but I am no longer a master. There's no reason for you to be so kind to me.

I drank all the tea.

So, are you going back upstairs?

Yes.

We worked hard to prepare for the welcome party.

Welcome party?

See all the victories achieved by the master.

Message.

I'm sorry.

Yurunette said.

In any case, I understand the master's intentions well. Since you are nominally Taunia's trainee, you want to be active on the second floor, right? It looks like I have to go to the second floor.

Please don't come all the way.

So how do we help the master?

There are so many things I want to say and convey after my training plan. When you have free time. Then I can meet you.

I have free time at night.

That way, it won't take you long to learn about Yurunette.

Hmm, her

She was thinking, and Yurunette's eyes lit up.

Master, how about this?

Rejected after all recruits were sent back.

Replace all trainers. People with bad habits

Rejected.

The dormitory at the training camp is small and simple. Can it be renovated?

Please stop that too.

The training camp facilities are quite good, at least compared to Townia's current facilities.

Unworthy of the master's dignity, Yurunette expressed her displeasure with a frown on her face.

I was surprised and said, Where is my dignity?

I can see it. The emperor's aura surrounding the master

Can you see it?

I asked Nislade, who was standing a short distance away.

I'm not sure.

That's it.

Nisreid took a step back as Yurnet laughed furiously.

Don't get carried away.

Also, please don't tell anyone about my identity. I don't want to be tied down. Let them know I'm alive.

As you command.

Yurnette bowed her head.

Let's discuss this further tomorrow evening.

Okay.

I got up from the chair.

Open the door secretly.

At Yurunette's signal, a dimensional portal shrouded in mist appeared in a corner of the garden.

I saw a hallway in the portal. It was a hallway in a separate building of the training center where new recruits were housed. Before passing through, I said, "Yurnette."

Yes.

You did well without me.

Niflheimr is still intact.

I couldn't see everything, but I understood that much.

The submaster is Celis. However, Yurnet is responsible for the overall operation. She must have spent many days doing tasks that I couldn't do.

It's an honor.

Yurunette greeted me, holding the edge of her skirt.

I have a final question.

Yes.

Am I still your master now?

Of course.

Yurnet smiled slightly.

Thud!

At that moment, the garden shook violently.

Leaves and petals were scattered in all directions.

Where is the master? Yurnet!

I heard a man's voice from far away.

Yurunette smiled.

Riggion seems to have noticed.

I swear, I didn't say a word!

Thunk!

Second vibration.

The space around the garden begins to distort.

They break through the barrier.

Was that the kind of temperament Liggion had?

I had always imagined him as someone who would never bat an eyelid, even if all his comrades were to fall.

Of all of us, he is the one who has been searching for his master the longest.

Is that so?

Are you planning to meet him?

I shook his head.

Rank 3. There are many things to discuss with Rydel.

But this won't be solved overnight.

I intended to create a venue after fully understanding the situation.

I don't have time.

Nislade said.

Ridgeon is usually calm, but once he gets excited, he has a hard time stopping.

Okay.

You have entered the dimensional portal.

The fog enveloped my body, making me unable to see.

Marbles.

The voices of people chatting echoed.

I looked around. A table and sofa were placed in a large circular room. Recruits dressed in various outfits exchanged conversations.

It was the reception room in the annex.

There was also a room for new recruits.

They brought me here.

No one seemed surprised when I appeared right next to them.

It seems to be a mixture of illusion and magic.

Training camp annex, 3rd floor.

Jenna and Aaron should be here somewhere.

If you're looking for friends, go this way. Nislade pointed to the stairs.

Why did you follow me?

For your safety.

Don't worry. If anyone messes with you, I'll break your neck.

That's exactly what I'm worried about.
