Ch 14
Episode 13 – Hidden Peace.
– Jaejoo Kim, what are you doing now?
-You seem to be wondering who the streamer is.
– Can you understand what I’m saying?
– Well, isn’t the question too weak?
-mind! your udesanu? I have to do this
-I live in Suwon.
– It’s good.
– What are you talking about, you idiots?
The viewers’ chatting was half puzzled and half bored.
It was because he repeated the same behavior even after visiting the chief wizard’s private laboratory before stopping by the gymnasium.
It was a natural atmosphere to go straight to the gymnasium after arguing about trivial, trivial chatter.
“Wake up. Carlson.”
Carlson, who had knelt at the words of Jaejoo Kim, got up suddenly.
– Look at Carlson’s face.
– I’m going to cry hey;
-What does it mean to give a drink to a boy who likes alcohol?
“Oh, come to think of it, I forgot to ask this.”
“Say it.”
“What’s your name?”
-class? Did I just hear it wrong?
– Hahahaha what are you talking about?
– Jaejoo, what’s your name?
-Suddenly you have a brain breaker;
– Why is that ah ah ah ah
The chat window, which had been on the rise for a long time, was speeding up like a wave.
“Yes? What do you mean by that…?”
Carlson’s eyes fluttered slightly.
“I asked what your name was.”
“My name is, of course, Roansen Carlson—”
“It’s a Korean name.”
A heavy silence descended as if the theater had poured cold water.
Carlson’s confused eyes flashed back and forth.
Then he frowned for a moment, and finally sighed.
“Hey, this is absolutely crazy asshole.”
– Hahahahaha for a belt?
-An unimaginable body
– Revealing this?
– Detective Disaster
– Disaster hahaha
“What are you?”
Carlson’s tone of voice changed in an instant.
“Can’t you see? It’s Kaoli, the second prince of the Astrod Empire.”
“Ah, is that so?”
-Extreme method acting on
– How are things going?
-Monga…Monga…it’s happening
Lee Seon-jae placed his hand on the scabbard he had inserted into his waist.
“Looking at it, it seems that he didn’t even bring an escort officer, and he chose a prince who had no powers.
“Well.”
“Well, Jiral. Hey. Just one question. How did you know? I was a little concerned about acting.”
“Am I obligated to answer?”
Lee Seon-jae smiled and rolled his eyes downwards.
Then with a smirk, he pulled his head forward and put his hand to his ear.
“Yes? What? Brothers? The 2nd Prince is trash with no X ability, so one shot of my sword is the end of the game?”
– Hey, look at that stupid thing!
-old lady; You were too engrossed.
– But is this annoying?
– The taunt ability has been lost;
Jaejoo Kim calmly opened his mouth without changing his expression.
“I felt it from the first time I saw it. Its frivolity and lowliness. I want to know, but I can’t tell because the disgusting smell pierces the tip of my nose.”
“Hey, did this hit…”
Lee Seon-jae’s face turned red in an instant.
-Look at the counter deal.
– Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
-old lady;
-Damage received by Jaejoo Kim is 0
-Pago Kim
-Extreme deal completed with the ultimate algorithm haha
surreung.
Lee Seon-jae drew his sword and raised it high as if he was about to swing it.
“You’re behind, you bastard.”
That moment.
“What is this!”
Lee Seon-jae’s hand stopped at the sound of a shout at the end of the entrance to the theater.
“Prince! Are you okay?”
The real voice was Podrick.
He secretly lingered beside Kim Jae-joo and appeared because the situation was not serious.
“There’s no need to make a fuss.”
“What do you mean! I just watched the author hold his sword high!”
“I was just demonstrating that I wanted to see swordsmanship. Isn’t it?”
Kim Jae-joo looked at Lee Seon-jae with a look that said it was nothing special.
“Yeah, yes.”
Lee Seon-jae hurriedly put the sword in with a bewildered expression.
-Look how embarrassed I am.
– I think he’s a little nerdy.
-ㅇㅇ If you hit it right away, you would think the game is over, but you have a little bit of determination.
– As expected, our talent is the best haha
-suddenly?
-???: Hahaha I just imagined going through the 5th floor lol
-Kim Jaejoo: It’s not too hard lol
“I felt alive.”
“I was just telling you to do your best.”
“Is that true?”
“okay.”
Podrick sighed and looked at Lee Seon-jae.
“Next time, be more careful with your actions. Unless you want to be tied to a horse and dragged into the street with your limbs amputated on suspicion of attempted assassination of the imperial family.”
“Oh, I was frivolous!”
– Podric oppa is so cool
– Since Podric was the Imperial Guardian Knight, wouldn’t he recognize him with his swordsmanship?
-Oh, he can’t be fooled because he doesn’t know that either.
– Middle-aged Ganji
– That shhh look at your hands shaking.
-But I don’t know what to think.
– Can’t we just say yes and let that bastard die?
-Humter Resting
-Who said that the rewards are better if you go to the end?
-Chat should be a bit faster
“Stop backing away. I will not rebuke you any more since the prince has said something.”
“yep!”
Lee Seon-jae left the gym in a hurry.
“…I wasn’t that kind of person before, but it’s strange today.”
“You pushed me so hard, isn’t it a natural reaction?”
“It’s pathetic. The Black Lion Knight Commander, called the heart of the empire, is in such a hurry.”
“I miss you.”
Jaejoo Kim didn’t ask what he missed.
“I forgot everything after I swore allegiance to Empress Fredesa.”
Even Podrick didn’t answer what he missed.
– Whoa!
– Whoops!
– Whoops!
-Stop it, you idiots;
-Seeing that there are a lot of psychopaths here, it seems there are some 20th-floors lol.
– Came here pretending to be dead;
-I thought for a moment that the real Kim Jaejoo was Kaoli.
-you too?
“I’m just bored in the room, so I’m on the way to look around, so don’t worry and go inside.”
“It can’t be.”
“It’s no longer me when I was younger. As a grown man, it’s painful to think of an old man by my side.”
“What!”
“If it’s right, I’ll have to call my madam. They say that young girls these days have a taste for middle-aged knights, what do you think?”
For the first time, Podrick gave a bewildered expression.
“·······You have suddenly developed a hobby of making fun of old people.
“okay.”
“However, do not go the wrong way and go straight to the room. If the 1st Prince finds a fault, nothing good will happen.”
“Alright.”
Podric sighed as if he was not satisfied with the confirmation, and stepped back with a muffled pace.
‘It took a lot more time than I thought.’
Jaejoo Kim looked at Podrick’s back, and was immersed in thought.
‘Didn’t you want to go to the gym from the beginning?’
When he thought that Podrick had moved away, Jaejoo Kim took a step forward.
[Remaining time: 6 days 5 hours]
Outside the gymnasium, the outer hallway overlooking the garden was dark.
Only the flickering lantern light of passing attendants occasionally illuminates the road.
‘I’ll have to visit the magic engineering workshop tomorrow.’
My top priority is magic engineering.
I was thinking of buying all the skill books, even if I robbed the remaining coins.
Unfortunately, even if you go to the workshop now, the door is likely to be closed, so you are wasting time.
– Jaejoo, what do you do now?
-It’s good that you found a streamer, but is the situation a bit complicated?
– It’s interesting because it’s us, it’s fun lol
“I want to see the ending.”
– My dear; 6 days left 6 days
– The emperor can be anyone lol
– It’s not too late, even now. Go kick that bastard
-I was threatened after seeing Podrick hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
‘There must be a way.’
I had no intention of giving up easily.
The place where Jaejoo Kim headed straight down that road was not his room, but the central administrative office where he handled paperwork.
‘I hope he moves as expected.’
The central administrative office was lined with papers on the wall behind the wooden table of the lounge lobby.
In the center of it, a young man was dozing with his chin in the lobby.
“You’re in a lot of trouble.”
“Seup, whoever… Hwa, I see you, Prince!”
-Look at the surprise lol
-I feel like I’m looking for Two Star while I’m on a night shift.
“What are you doing to such a shabby place?”
“It’s not a big deal, there’s one thing I want to check.”
“Yes. You can say anything.”
“Is there any record of Carlson coming and going today?”
“Yes. If you are the commander of the Black Lion Knights, you have been here less than an hour, so I remember it clearly.”
“What did you check and go?”
“Please wait a moment.”
The young man turned around and pulled out one of the tightly packed papers.
“Here it is.”
“Thank you.”
「Imperial long-term mission starter: Podric Deomaron
Duration: 29 days.
Mission Description: Confirmation of the beast ecosystem and research investigation.
Note: 3 Popois.
Special Note: All 3 specimens are quiet as if sick, so there is a suspicion of contamination of the surrounding environment.”
“You mean the knight commander went after looking at this?”
“That’s right.”
“Is there anything special about it?”
“That is······.”
“Say it.”
“Yes, yep! Where did the captured beasts go? The last thing I saw was in front of the second prince’s residence.”
“I see. Thank you.”
Lee Seon-jae also thought he was very lucky.
-Shhh saves this.
– It just seems crazy to me.
-It’s not normal to see him acting even after revealing his identity.
– Go to the administration office.
Viewers knew a lot.
As if it was pity that he was trembling, the viewers’ training continued and he ran straight to the administrative office.
At first, I was nauseous.
‘Popoi? That’s what it’s all about, idiots.’
-Ah, I think I know who he is. I’m tired of seeing the rider
-If there were three, there was only one, right?
-Is it Kim Jaejoo?
-That’s right, the name is unique, so I remember it clearly.
– But you didn’t kill him and take him with you? Is that possible?
-Ah, I only looked up to the first floor and came out because I was disgusted with Popo.
-He passed the ordeal with Popo and his friend?
-Really?
– Me too, spring haha But Popoi was really traumatized so I couldn’t see him.
“No, brothers. What is the importance of names in this situation?”
-Listen to what people have to say.
– Is there a prayer room outside the city gate?
Lee Seon-jae’s eyes lit up at the ensuing training.
“thank you!”
– Just in case you don’t know, if he’s still around, think about it.
Lee Seon-jae did not hesitate to search for traces of the second prince.
Asking the attendants passing by, he arrived at the administrative office he had come from.
While waiting for Jaejoo Kim in the hallway, Seonjae Lee sharpened his teeth.
‘Look at this bastard. You were looking into me?’
Not long after, Jaejoo Kim appeared.
Lee Seon-jae looked around.
– No Podrick, stop being scared;
– It’s a survival instinct, what should I do?
– You don’t know. If it just pops out like before, it’s a real death angle.
“hey.”
“See you again.”
“Uh-huh, be so fucking fucking stupid. Stop acting, right?”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“You’re Jaejoo Kim, aren’t you?”
Kim Jae-joo’s eyes fluttered wildly in the moonlight.
Kim Jae-joo’s blankly open mouth was telling the truth.
-Your expression is irrelevant lol
– Look at this from a survival angle.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“You don’t have to know. I’ll find you soon.”
“Sleep, wait!”
Lee Seon-jae turned his back and ran out of the castle gate immediately.
I didn’t know what kind of trick Kim Jae-joo was going to use because I was wasting time.
‘okay! I am not the one to die here. done. That’s it!’
What the viewers informed us was none other than the Hidden Peace on the 5th floor.
If you reveal the name of another streamer in the temple prayer room, you can immediately pass the ordeal.
As a disadvantage, it was not an easy method to recommend because it was impossible to achieve an increase in ability.
There was also a penalty for failure.
‘Isn’t that a problem when life is going to fly away?’
-Seonjae single smile haha
– Am I feeling a little awkward?
– You’re just crazy? If it’s normal, who would think of making friends with Popo?
– That’s right… Hmm
Lee Seon-jae passed the dark central temple and entered the prayer room in the corner.
‘Settings window. Settings window.’
Excited and nervous, I searched the settings window with trembling hands.
[Trial of Wisdom]
‘It’s out.’
He quickly pressed the window as if someone was chasing him.
[Hidden Peace Operation]
[Test your wisdom.]
[Tell the name of the user who has the same ordeal.]
“Jaejoo Kim.”
[Checking information… User name: Jaejoo Kim]
[Are you sure? Y/N]
Lee Seon-jae pressed Y at once.
[Wrong.]
[Evil gods who ridicule your wisdom cast a curse.]
[The person currently possessed by the user: Roansen Carlson]
[Determined Ending: Acquisition of the Five Skills of the Imperial 1st Knights Swordsmanship.]
[Curse: All acquired skills disappear.]
Lee Seon-jae’s eyes fluttered wildly.
“This… what kind of bullshit is this!”
