You didn't expect this, did you? I've time-traveled again!

Suoh Takeshi stopped trying to persuade her, turned around and left, pretending to be troubled, saying, "Sigh, what a pity~ It was Puck who sent me, but Beatrice refused. It seems I have no choice but to talk to Puck... Ah—! I can only talk to Puck—!"

Fearing she might not understand the hidden meaning in his words, Zhou Fangwu deliberately repeated them loudly twice.

Unsurprisingly, Betty immediately changed her attitude.

"and many more!"

She called out to Suoh Takeshi, who was about to leave the forbidden library.

Suoh Takeshi suppressed the smirk that had been playing on his lips, turned to look at her with feigned confusion, and asked softly:

"What's wrong, Beatrice?"

"Although Betty is unwilling, since it is your brother's request, it is not impossible for Betty to teach you."

"really?"

"Hmph, of course."

Betty, the brother-obsessed girl, snorted and said, "But let me make this clear beforehand: if you're not suited for Yin magic, Betty won't teach you much, because it would be a waste of time."

"Ah, don't worry about that. Actually, I'm quite talented in Yin magic." Suoh Takeshi wasn't worried at all that he wouldn't be able to learn it.

Seeing Suoh Takeshi's confidence, Betty muttered under her breath, "Hmph, arrogant brat, I'll make you give up on your own in a minute."

Betty then began teaching him dark magic.

Chapter 084 Sorry, I won't agree.

Betty truly lives up to her reputation as a great elf who has dedicated 400 years to studying Yin-attribute magic.

Yin-attribute magic is extremely diverse and rich in variety, and the knowledge and principles taught are also extremely detailed.

However, the process of going from shallow to deep at the beginning, and finally becoming coarse and sparse, was incredibly fast.

Because Betty discovered it.

No matter what kind of magic it is, once it is demonstrated, Suoh Takeshi can immediately imitate it!

All magic is like that!

So in the end, she didn't explain anything.

It's simply a process of [casting magic - canceling magic - casting magic again - canceling magic again].

After three hours, Betty slumped in her chair, questioning the meaning of life.

Right now, she has only one thought:

That's incredible! Absolutely incredible! It's not human at all! (Referring to the talent)

Humans are terrifying!

I will never teach magic to humans again!

Suoh Takeshi walked briskly out of the forbidden library.

After having a great time playing in the secret room with the little girl, he learned quite a bit of Yin-attribute magic, but he still felt a little unsatisfied.

He greedily thought that these Yin-attribute spells were barely passable.

Although he learned most of the magic, Betty didn't demonstrate some of the most powerful spells, so he didn't learn them either.

After all, the confined library was too small and inconvenient.

However, Suoh Takeshi did learn a Yin-attribute magic from Betty that he was very satisfied with.

—Spatial transfer!

Note that spatial teleportation and instantaneous teleportation are different!

Spatial transfer is a magical skill that can move people (or objects) from one space to another!

However, it has drawbacks!

That is, the magic consumption is extremely large, and the preparation time is extremely long!

This means that Suoh Takeru's idea of ​​using [Spatial Transfer] in battle is pure wishful thinking!

Even if he has a lot of magic power, enough for him to use it many times, the extremely long period of stun is enough for enemies to take the opportunity to kill him.

It's a bit of a pity.

However, this skill is a fantastic way to get around.

In case of any unexpected event requiring him to arrive immediately, he can use this skill to travel.

Put away the adventurer card.

Suoh Takeshi wanted to try out his newly acquired skill in the courtyard.

However, he had only gone halfway when he saw Roswaal and Emilia talking in the conference room.

They probably wanted to talk about something privately.

Suoh Takeshi hadn't intended to eavesdrop, but when he vaguely heard Roswaal mention his name, he immediately felt uneasy.

That weirdo Roswaal must be up to something behind the scenes that he doesn't want him to know!

No!

Roswaal has to be wary!

Otherwise, you'll definitely run into some more trouble!

At this point, the super hearing I learned from Zenitsu Agatsuma came in handy.

Three meters away from the conference room, he concealed himself in the shadows, using the skill [Concealment] to ensure everything was foolproof before beginning to carefully eavesdrop.

------

Roswaal and Emilia arrived at the conference room.

Roswaal spoke first, saying to her:

"Lady Emilia, there is something I need to tell you in advance, it is a very important matter."

His tone was very serious, and even his usual strange tone was gone.

Emilia, too, became a little nervous because of Roswaal's serious demeanor. She asked anxiously, "Something very important? What is it, Roswaal?"

"Actually, it's about the fact that Lady Emilia doesn't have her own knight yet."

Roswaal took out a royal decree from his pocket and handed it to Emilia, saying, "The Kingdom's Council of Sages has issued an order requiring all candidates for the throne to have their own personal knight and to report this to the Council of Sages."

"Huh?!"

Emilia was startled and quickly took the message, carefully reading the text on it.

indeed.

As Roswaal stated, the Sages required all candidates for the throne to submit the names of their knights, and the Sages' seal confirmed the order's authenticity.

However, the above does not state the requirement that one must have one's own knight.

The naive and innocent Emilia didn't understand anything at all; she thought she really needed to have her own personal knight.

That's why she was so anxious.

Roswaal saw this as an opportunity to mislead Emilia and then make his own plans.

Because Emilia was called that, no knight was willing to pledge allegiance to her!

In the end, things will definitely develop as you expected!

really.

Upon seeing the message, Emilia panicked and anxiously asked, "W-what do we do, Roswaal!"

"Yes, this is troublesome..."

Roswaal, feigning a frown and looking troubled, said:

“Although I am a border count and the chief court mage, I cannot disobey the orders of the Sages' Council too much. Moreover, this is a special time. If I act too willfully, it will cause Lady Emilia's reputation to drop again.”

Emilia's reputation was already poor; if it drops further, she really won't have any chance of winning the election.

For a moment, both of them were at a loss and began to rack their brains for a solution.

Emilia was genuinely considering the matter carefully, while Roswaal was secretly chuckling to himself, because he had already secretly chosen a candidate for Emilia's knight position.

Everything that seemed like a perfectly legitimate outcome was actually a path he had secretly paved in advance!

it's time!

Roswaal's lips curled into a smile, then he quickly hid it, as if offering Emilia advice, and asked in return, "Lady Emilia, what do you think of Takeshi?"

"Huh?" Emilia was taken aback.

She didn't quite understand why Roswaal suddenly mentioned Suoh Takeshi's name.

Roswaal continued:

"You see, Wu is a swordsman, and an exceptionally strong one at that, stronger than most kingdom knights! Furthermore, he's one of those who doesn't care about your unusual appearance, and you're quite close to him. Most importantly..."

As he spoke, Roswaal produced another decree, "Wu has been officially recognized by the Kingdom's Knights. He is now a true knight, officially knighted by the Kingdom!"

As a count, Roswaal recommended Suoh Takeshi to become a knight of the kingdom. Although the process was difficult and tortuous, he overcame all obstacles and forcibly placed Suoh Takeshi into the knight order as a member of the knights.

The goal is for Suoh Takeru to become Emilia's knight!

If Emilia asks, Suoh Takeshi will definitely agree!

Follow the guidance of the Book of Wisdom in all things!

Just as Roswaal was thinking this, Suoh Takeshi walked in from outside and said something unexpected to him.

"Ahem, about that topic you two are discussing... I'm sorry, I don't agree."

"Huh?"

Roswaal was stunned on the spot.

This is not quite what he imagined!
