We enter another chapter of development. The truth is that this volume is turning out to be very slow, but I think it is good because all the characters are having a screen. Since when the big event comes, they won't have a moment to rest.
We are finally at the long awaited day. The festival of the magic sword tournament. Starting with the crucial question. why festival being a school event? This event takes place over three days. Today, Friday, being the last day. What happened on the other two days? Well this was developed by a Japanese game company. So it's a school festival in other words. Two days full of games for the students. The classic activities that anime shows about school festival in Japanese schools. The truth. I was excited, there was even drama, I wanted to cry as they did a performance of the robot kid fighting crime. Of course, robots don't exist in this world, so they made him a ghost to make sense. That just leaves the final question. The tournament. It takes place on a Friday because we go to a coliseum set up by the academy where over ten thousand people can enter. This makes people come to the capital to spend. The economy grows thanks to this. For that reason, it is an important
The moment the referee gave the signal, he ran out of the place. In a swift movement, Sieghart stomped his foot and went straight for Rei. Rei could not notice at what moment that old man disappeared and came to stand in front of him. Sieghart used a dull approach sword, it was just like a steel plate. The reason for using such a sword was because a wooden sword would be crushed by his hands. Rei used a cheat skill known as "Reinforcement" which allows him to increase the resistance, attack or defensive power of an object. He gave an approximate 110% defense to the wooden sword and 300% attack. It even added 200% agility to make it move faster. But still, Rei's sword was destroyed. Sieghart's move was purposely used to destroy the sword. Seeing that, everyone gasped. Rogue too, then muttered a story from Sieghart. "I-Incredible. Now that I remember, my father before he died said that he watched as he had fought peer to peer against a sword saint of the empire." "Clementine
The clock read eleven o'clock at night. The lights of the businesses were unlit as they had all closed. Streetlights illuminated every corner. Knights patrolled looking for suspicious people. Walking in the midst of that darkness with lights on the sides were Rei and Zoey holding hands. "Y-You're really planning to go?" "Just shut up and follow me." Rei was grumpy for some reason. After arriving at the restaurant where the duel was supposed to be, a waiter came out and handed him a piece of paper. On that paper was the address of the duel location. Rei didn't say anything, he just read the address and went together with Zoey there. ◇◇◇ After arriving at the designated place, it was a residential area for wealthy people. A large wall covered almost a whole block. They arrived at the gate, there a man in a suit saw them and said. "What's the company for? Do you want to see what they'll do to you?" The man in the suit knew Rei apparently, but Zoey he didn't know, he didn't
"Listen well Calvin." A beautiful day like any other. Birds were singing merrily and farm animals were being tended to give their profits to the farmers. A large territory the size of a village which was known as the Principality of Frazier. It was the setting where a certain eight-year-old boy was receiving an important lesson from his grandfather. "I will tell you the reason why we must take back our kingdom." The boy nodded sitting on his grandfather's lap. Who took out a pipe and after lighting it told him the story of his family. "We Frazier’s were originally from the Brune Kingdom." "They were never called like that, they were just one of the two ducal families that served to protect us in crisis." "Our ancestors were great men and women who gave everything for the country. Even our wealth and treasures were given to the people to help give them a morsel of food." "We used every penny to help them get ahead in life." "What do you think of that?" Little Calvin replied
After rushing to his office, Calvin found Diethard standing looking at the picture of the former king of the principality. Diethard saw him and prostrated himself to greet him. "It is a pleasure to see you healthy my king." "Enough of the formalities. Tell me, did you manage to find out anything?" Diethard smiled in a very ghoulish manner. "I did." ◇ November was progressing normally until one day... "Go to the palace?" Rei, Rose and Eli were in a room at the academy drinking tea. A maid from the academy came to report that Rei was wanted by a palace official. Rose took the message as Rei was lying on a couch. After we got rid of Bertram, it seems the Bartolt family filed a complaint. Someone in the palace threatened them, was what the knight who released Rei from interrogation told us. Rose came and I told Rei the message. He looked at Eli who was also surprised. "I can't know the reason why they are calling you." "In that case, let's go over there." Rei said af
It had been a few hours since we went into the forest. It was already midday. The forest on the outskirts of the capital is vast like a sea. In the game this place was known to be a massive source of experience for leveling up. At every corner we would come across some monster or treasure. I told Rei to look around if there was any chance of hidden treasure, sadly there was none. I feel very disappointed in part. I was hoping for even a small one. Everyone was chatting as we walked on this long trail. ◇◇◇ The person who was guiding them was Isaac as he received a map from his father. On that map was located was marked the villages under attack. Next to him was Oliver who was asking him a lot of questions. "In those places is that where the attacks happened?" "That's right. The funny thing is that the pattern is strange." "Why do you say that?" Oliver asked intrigued. Isaac answered as he brushed some branches away from his face. "The attacks seem to have been done ran
This happened after Rei and Rose left. "That's not how you put up a tent." "But I want to set it up like this Isaac." "Al, I'm telling you this needs to be more spacious so Eli has more mobility." "No, no, no. You do understand that tents are for sharing right? You're using two tents for her alone!" Everyone was setting up their stuff. At that moment while Alfred was stopping Sig from using his sleeping bag to make a bed for Eli. "...!" He became aware of an approaching presence. "Where's it coming from?" "Al?" Alfred looked sideways. (It’s moving around a lot, I can't detect how many there are.) "What's the matter Al?" Sig was asking him, but Alfred wasn't paying attention. Behind them a hooded man ran straight at Sig. Alfred shouted. "Enemy attack!" Everyone reacted to those words. But it was too late. The hooded man was approaching, pulled out a dagger and standing a meter away. "Bacon, guard His Highness!" A voice came from the sky, Alfred raised his head and
After being captured, Diethard's group brought Sig and the others to a principality base. It looks like a castle. But it is a temporary base created by them. How could they do this in such a short time? It is mainly because of the cult members, the codes who built all this. Diethard seeing the internal situation of Brune, understood that it was very easy to invade them. He planned different plans, but Calvin told him the simplest of all. Plant different enemy bases around the capital and secretly attack. That ridiculous plan worked. There were currently forces trying to enter the capital. Calvin thought it was his perfect plan. But in fact, a strange force made sure no one noticed. The screams of combat from those areas could be heard all around the capital, while in the area where the captured boys were, there was no combat. Sig and all were placed in the center of the camp, their arms and legs bound with chains so that if one were to run away, the others would be behind
Greetings from Siegburn, your favorite author dear readers. It gives me great pleasure to officially inform you that the novel of Cheat Lord has reached the halfway point. That's right, half of the story has been reached! It's similar to Ixion where we also reached the halfway point of the story, only Re:Otome would be missing so that all my works would be halfway. Did you think that Kurono would remain a stone forever? Obviously I'm not a crappy author to do that XD. You guys after reading various things in my works that happened, you would have to have known that Kurono would have a body one day, but no one imagined that I would use a monster as a vessel XD. Could I have done it before? Yes. Why didn't I do it? I didn't want to do it, I wanted it to happen like this. Why a chimera? Because I wanted something crazy non-human for what Kurono will do. As you could see, we put aside R18 to focus on secondary and character development. Rei is growing up little by little, we are
A new morning has arrived already. I managed to get a body, it's not human, but I can make it look like one. I discovered this while fiddling around. First, keeping this form consumes approximate 40% of my powers, since even the smallest detail copied it from my original body from my memories. Second, I am never hungry. I can eat, but feel no interest in consuming food. Third, I do not need to sleep, but I can briefly disconnect my consciousness and appear to have slept for hours, it works like a stopwatch. And finally, I do not possess any limbs. That's right, I'm just like the dolls for little girls. Isn't this sad? I had to recreate everything, but it doesn't work. I want to cry, I have no use for a gun which not only doesn't have a bullet, it can't shoot either. As a man I am a failure, but well, I can't cry over spilled milk. After I got up, a maid knocked on the door. "Kurono-sama, please wake up, it's time for breakfast." Rei's bastard told everyone to call me Kuro
"... Well... do you have anything to say?" I was being lectured by Rei. How did this happen? Well it turns out that after I cast that huge magic power into the sky, a part of the palace was wiped out. I got so scared thinking that I could kill someone. I used the "invisibility" skill to check for injuries. I almost had a heart attack when I saw it... or I had one, but since this body is not human the heart attack could have happened and I didn't feel it. I was thinking of committing seppuku just like the samurai when I heard that all this was caused by a monster. I stayed all day at the palace gathering information. As night fell I heard how the palace would raise taxes to repair the castle. Then when almost everyone went to sleep, I knocked out some guards and used my powers to rebuild the place. After that I hid for three days in the forest, the knights were looking for traces of possible accomplices. I got so scared that I looked like a bear in its cave. After three day
After ending the chaos with what happened to Klyde, the servants, knights and ministers proceeded to search for wounded. The deceased would be given a burial and their families would be rewarded for their brave sacrifice. As Rei searched for injured people, he encountered someone unexpected. "Max!" He found his cousin trying to run away. He turned around and saw Rei. He ran out after seeing him, Rei went after him, after grabbing him, he choked him. "You... do you have any idea the trouble you've gotten yourself into?" "They're treating you as his accomplice! They're going to execute you if they find you." "... Fault." "...?" Rei heard a small murmur, Max lifted his face and looked at his cousin with a hate-filled gaze. "It's all your fault!" 'If you hadn't ruined my future! The duke's title that belonged to me! I wouldn't have gone near that guy!" "It's your fault it ended up like this!" *Punch* Rei slapped Max's cheek. He looked at him with a nasty expression. "I'll
Rei's plan to defeat Klyde's clones was simple. They would have the six copies fall into the water fountain, Sieghart is the one who would be in charge of grouping them, Darius would throw them with his spear and Rei would arrange for the water to wet them all and thus use a necessary skill to defeat them. It was dangerous because they could die. It was ridiculous because nothing was guaranteed to work. But for Rei, this was the only plan he could think of. Thanks to the past events of his fight against Calvin, Rei understood that sometimes his powers won't work to defeat impossible enemies. Sometimes it will be necessary to ask for help and rely on others. Unlike the past, where the first person he trusted was the one who taught him how to use the sword, and then betrayed him with the knowledge that he sold children, including a little Eli, he was filled with pure hatred for liars. Rei did not trust people because they lied, it was as if a part of him was still a child. But n
In the hall of ministers were the king and queen. They were scared, they heard that a monster came out from under the palace and is coming up screaming that it wants their heads. They could run away, but they had no idea if it might have allies waiting in hiding. Thanks to a servant shouting that Sieghart had arrived, they felt safe. But the queen looked at a certain person with a bad expression. "My dear, is Sieghart sure about not coming to defend us?" The king who understood why she said so answered her. "Olga, we need Sieg to take care of defeating the intruders. That's why you sent him to protect us in the meantime." "I understand that, but... him?" Said the queen pointing her nose at Bret who stood in the center of the place. Bret thought as he looked at the door and a booger ran down his nose. (Why does this always happen to me?) (For some reason they get me involved in something I can't handle and now that I thought I would be calm at the border they drag me to this
The battle between Kurono and Regnas was about to begin. Regnas was very angry with Kurono, killed his men, destroyed his plan and now pulverized his favorite sword. He had many motives to kill them. But he was a barbarian. Someone who was born in a hostile territory make children fight against huge monsters. If the child survives, it becomes a warrior. But if doesn't survive, it's just manure. Such were their laws. Regnas grew up as the second strongest, always surpassed by the current king who disappeared. He doesn't know what happened to him, but he was thankful he was gone. Now he has a free way to do his own thing. Regnas joined the cult to gain power, he was blessed with the name Berserk. After remembering his reasons for being here, he marched straight to Kurono. "I'll kill you quickly to make sure to accomplish at least me with the mission!" Kurono thought as he saw him coming. (Come to think of it. How should I deal with this guy?) (I don't know what kind of str
"The first time I died, I was in a dark place." "There was nothing, just darkness." "I cried for help, I begged for rescue." "No one came to help me." "But at that moment... a warm light came right at me." "It was a dark light from which a woman in a black dress and skeleton-like appearance greeted me." "She said 'Your time has not come, but you are not someone normal either. I will not allow you to die until you have achieved your goal. Go on living and experiencing a life of joy to achieve your desire, I wish to see you one day and that you have achieved it'." "That's what she said." Klyde was telling strange things to the official who was taking down everything he said. He couldn't believe it. (This guy... he's completely insane!) He couldn't believe his ears. The official said. "Hey, we have to inform the king that this guy is crazy. I don't know if we can condemn someone in such a deranged state of mind." Despite the official saying that, Klyde didn't stop. "I knew
Dear readers, the day I had told you so much about has arrived. The big surprise, I don't want to say any more. Just that you enjoy it and that we are entering the final stretch of the volume. _____________ The next morning something unexpected happened. Rei took Ange-chan for a walk. After she got up, they went to have a bunch of pancakes for breakfast. After that they went horseback riding. Then they went beetle catching. It wasn't just today, this went on for quite a while. About a week. I kept asking Rei why he was doing this, but he wouldn't answer me. Now the two of them were eating ice cream again. Ange-chan was looking at her ice cream with a lost look. Rei asked her. "Is something wrong?" She was quiet and then asked him something disturbing. "Rei onii-chan. why are you being so nice to me for a while now?" "...Is it necessary for me to answer?" "Yes." Rei was thoughtful before answering. "I'm going to kill your dad tomorrow." "...!" Both Ange-chan and I
