We enter the final battle of this volume! Enjoy it until the end! Jude & Tom vs Rudel!!
These guys had no idea who they were messing with. I looked at the great nobles and their families who couldn't believe that after all that damage it was okay. Poor naive people. Not only them, Tom, he couldn't believe his eyes. But it didn't matter, it was time to show them that Battler and I, we are the most terrifying combination. "Guh, don't fuck with me!" Tom backed up to come straight at me. "You're just all talk, you're nobody!" The spear in his hand spun in the opposite direction. It was absorbing magical power. The spear was spinning to such an extent that the density of the magic element in the air was visible. "I'll make sure you're just a sack of bones!" His armored unit was galloping straight to pierce me. I'd be scared if what happened just now hadn't been an act. "You know, there's something I wanted to tell you, it's about your attitude Tom-kun." "Shut your mouth!" His armed unit was getting closer. I took a boxing pose. And I started to warm up a littl
Jude was dreaming. He was remembering that autumn day last year. The day his life changed forever. He had left a party where many noble children were gathered. This party was for him, his father wanted him to look for connections with nobles and to see if he could look for his future and possible wife. "It's so boring in there." Jude walked down a long sloping path, at the edges was grass growing. He wore a smart suit and his tie was a mess. "All women are boring, there aren't any who don't think of themselves. If they want me to marry a woman like that, then let them engage me to Sara, but my father wouldn't like that." He kicked a can, that can was flying straight into a river. The sun was going down. As the can fell, Jude was about to turn around to go back to the party. Then─ "What a cute kitty." He heard a voice coming from the bridge linking the islands. As he turned his gaze to see the owner of that voice. He was shocked to see a girl. She was feeding a cat. The
The night had come. I went for a walk to think about what to do with Lucy. Deep down I was attracted to her, but at the same time I prioritized her feelings. I am a very irritable man it seems. But... I am really worried about her future. Today she greeted me out of politeness, but immediately turned her face away from mine. I want her to be happy, but at the same time I don't want those two to cry again. Wait a minute... I forgot! Ellen and Lecia became my lovers! Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh! I'm so stupid! But why am I thinking about this now? Is it... that deep down I'm scared after her rejection when I tried to save her in the mansion at Jude's house? I think it might be that. I had the same thing happen with Airi when she confessed to me, I avoided her on purpose. Damn Ixion, he's right when he says I need a psychiatrist. As I stood up, I was going to run out to find Lucy to talk to her. Before I turned around, I saw her. "Good evening." Sara was standing off to the side.
It was nighttime, Liam was in the kitchen at his work station. The boss let him use it to practice cooking. "Umm, it's kind of hard to decide what to do." Liam was thinking about how beneficial it was for the Kingdom's kitchen to include foreign food. So this was very important to him. "The density of the soup stock is fine, the chicken and pork are well cooked. Also the noodles and seaweed well soaked to gain thickness, what am I missing?" The crown prince was on a motto. He had been in that position for hours and the broth got cold. It was early morning even. Without meaning to, Liam closed his eyes. ◇◇◇ (Where am I?) Liam was in a dark place filled with fog. He didn't know what to do or where to go. Then, in the distance he visualized a figure. (Bradford!?) Rudel was for some reason in that place, his distance from Liam's was immense. (Wait, Bradford!) Liam ran after Rudel. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't catch up. (Why can't I catch up with you?) Liam
In the palace of Altfode Kingdom. Leonis stood in front of his desk. Dark circles formed under his eyes. He had fallen asleep before he realized it and there was a trail of drool on the paperwork. Leonis opened his eyes and rubbed his mouth. And then his anger was growing. "That brat, every time, every time─!" When he thought the problem would finally be solved, the official who was sent to the Supreme Kingdom before the second half of the year started to return with a big fuss. The reason was "Count Bradford got into a fight with Banfield Household and Exner Household!" Speaking of Banfield Household, this was a house with great influence in Aster at this time. The palace became a beehive that loomed after receiving that report. Then another diplomat came right after that with a new notification. It was a letter of apology from Banfield Household, Exner Household and the Supreme Kingdom itself. Leonis and others could not even imagine what was going on there. But, there wa
Once upon a time there was a girl who was not like other girls. That girl saw life in a boring way. Born into a family of counts, that girl with cyan-blue hair, fuchsia eyes and drills as a hairstyle, she─ Eleonora von Roseblaire, was bored at the moment. Entering the Altfode Kingdom academy, she expected an exciting life because she would meet many people of different statuses. In the end, that first year was spent yawning. After a while, her second year at the academy arrived. The first semester of the new school year started smoothly. Eleonora, or Ellen as her family called her, sat drinking tea in a social gathering room. Her entourage was talking to her, but she ignored them. (How boring it is today, no, it was boring yesterday and it will be boring tomorrow.) Ellen's days were calm and peaceful, she was bored with those days being like that. She wanted excitement in her life. Something to get her heart pumping and remind her that she was alive. It was then, when a pi
I am angry, not with him, but with me. It's been a few days since Rudel saved me from the great nobles. I was perplexed when Sara told me that I didn't need to be bothered anymore and that I can do whatever I want from now on. Actually, that's what confuses me. What should I do? There are people in this country that I love, including my sister. I was surprised to see that Madame Beverly was one of the remaining knights of my family. The academy is a bit complicated. The fact that they found out that I am the priestess spread to everyone. Now there are people who don't know what to do about how to treat me. My friends look at me with their heads down. It's really hateful to be treated special when I'm not. ❤❤❤ Today Erselica-chan, her boyfriends and servants went out together with the maids that Rudel brought from the Kingdom. They went to buy things. I went downstairs and went to the kitchen, I was hungry. After taking a few steps, I saw them. "Hey, this tastes awful."
Today is special. Not only because I already solved my problem with Lucy, well, I think it is. I was in the harbor of the Exner Household territory. I heard that this place is special according to Frey, as there are entertainment areas for fancy people like theaters, museums, opera and all that stuff I don't care about. But today I do, it's because of the person I'm waiting for. I was wearing my best clothes, you can say I look like a rich young man. I came here by ship from the Rosenberg Household. If I had come with Schwert or Ixion, it would be very troublesome to explain. "Oh, it's here!" A small fleet from the Kingdom came to this place. The flagship was the smallest, the other ships were bigger because they were their escorts. They all anchored, but only the bridge came down from one. From the smallest ship a person came down accompanied by maids. It was none other than Lecia, the Queen of my country. The reason she came was not for political matters, it was for som
"This really sucks." My name is Rudel. A simple, generic high school student. One day upon returning home, my parents said to me. "Rudel! You've been selected to study at the prestigious Altfode Royal Academy!" "Are you excited? Mom is, she always thought you'd end up being a good-for-nothing like your older brothers." (Hey, you shouldn't tell your kids that.) (By the way, what the hell is the Altfode Royal Academy?) That's what I wondered before I went to sleep. When I woke up, I read the pamphlet my dad gave me. It said there that the Altfode academy is a very special private institution which only a certain number of the world's elite can enter. "Damn, that's impressive!" But that's not what's truly impressive. How the hell did I get selected? It says in the pamphlet that they give you a special exam to get in. But I never took one. How could I have gotten in? My parents don't question this. My older brother Lyle looked at me with a jealous expression on his face.
My name is Rudel van Bradford and I am a reincarnate. Due to certain events in my life I went on a mission that my home, the Altfode Kingdom requested. I fought pirates and then one of them told me that there was a bounty on my head. So I immediately returned home to kick the ass of the idiot who played that tasteless joke on me. Although at this point I don't think it's a joke anymore, since... "Kill him!" "He who takes his head will be rewarded." "The Glaive Squad will be the one to kill him!" I am being attacked by knights from my own country. As soon as I reached one of the borders of the country, a fleet of seventy airships was waiting for me. I engaged them and the instant I did so, they fired their cannons at me. Battler is a bit damaged, it needs repairs. That's why I needed to go to my island so Bell could repair it. But these idiots started attacking me. I pulled out my axes and I didn't care who they are, they are trying to kill me so I will kill them. My airs
Howdy my dear readers. Greetings once again from Siegburn. I am grateful to all of you for giving me your support and reading one of my works again. It makes me very happy. I'm sure many of you want to know what happened here, let's get to it. Starting with what most annoying questions ask. Why didn't Diana die? She deserved it! Certainly it is as you say, Diana should have died, indeed; she would die after being pierced in her stomach and upon meeting Lugh, the two would become one, thus achieving a new sacred tree. Why didn't I do it, you ask? The answer is even simpler. How I killed Diana, I would have had to kill Randolf as well. And nobody wants that! You see, at the time of drafting, Diana would die first, then Randolf instead of Romeo. His son would take over and Rudel would destroy the republic. Why did I change it? Because I thought of this. If there is no one to listen to the words of the tree, how will they collect the orbs? Who would take over Aster since n

Today is a new day in my quiet life. Good morning world, my name is Rudel. I am a citizen of the Supreme Kingdom of Aster and this is my day to day life. ◇ To begin with, I am a reincarnate. I died and reincarnated in this world of fantasy and swords. My father came to this country years ago, he was in the care of the Rosenberg Household. He died years ago and asked them to take care of me. I was about to move to the city on my own when the head of the house, Randolf-san told me to stay. I was given my own room and also a baronet's title. Why so kind to a stranger? There are two answers. The first is unknown, perhaps my father and Randolf-san were great friends. The second is due to this boy. "Good morning Master Rudel. It's a beautiful morning, isn't it?" "Good morning Zero." Zero is an artificial intelligence I found in Aster's dungeon one day when I went to fetch a sapling as an offering to the sacred tree. I got lost and found this guy who is a giant airship. But d
The following video file was mysteriously deleted. No one knows how it happened. No one can explain what happened. It may even be labeled as fake. The only thing that is known is that there is no trace of anyone involved. ◇◇◇ "Emm, testing. Testing." "Is this thing on?" A scientist turned on a video camera to record an experiment. A group of scientists were with him. "Professor, if you can't turn on a simple camera, you should leave it to someone else." "Silence insolent!" "It's just that I'm not used to using one." "Hahaha, the professor is an important scientist and can't turn on a camera." *Laughs* "Don't laugh at me! Old age is a cruel enemy to everyone." The scientists had huge machines and all those gadgets pointed to a small box with a metal ball inside. *Cough* The scientist indicated with his cough that it was time to begin. All the scientists put on their goggles and walked away. "All right, we're going to do test number 41 of the experiment." "We've call
My name is Judah. I am an artificial intelligence created by humans to serve them. My main body is a large computer which can command from a secure location a state of the art warship. I was ordered to stay here waiting for orders. For that reason, I haven't moved in a long time. How long has it been? I do not know. I only know that the branches of the big tree that covers this territory have grown deep into here. It really is irritable to have to cut them off. ◇◇ The branches of this thing are really annoying. What's more, I'm surprised that it can grow vegetation. According to an analysis I did a while ago, there was a big toxic cloud surrounding the whole world. But after a while, little by little the toxins have started to disappear. As I was ordered to stay here waiting for orders, I can't do anything. I can only wait. They are really taking their time. Well, while I'm waiting. Should I order some things? Everything is so quiet. There's nothing weird on my rada
In a large room of a mansion, Diana opened her eyes. She was in her usual pajamas. When she was a child, it was normal for maids to come and change her clothes. After she lost her home she had to do it alone. But now that she has her house back... no one helps her. After doing her basic needs she went to change. She changed into a business suit with pants included. She went downstairs for breakfast and there was Lutart. "Diana-sama, good morning." "Good morning, Lutart." Breakfast was served. She wanted to go back to the days where she had luxurious and exotic foods for breakfast. Now she could only find oatmeal, bread, juice and sometimes bacon with eggs. Lutart was the one who prepared it. Since there was no one else in this mansion. After being declared priestess, Diana avoided her execution, but with it Aster's hatred did not descend one bit. To clean the house or any repairs that need to be done, servants from other families come. The servants of Vermillion Househ
Night fell on the last day before Rudel and the others set sail for home. Ixion and Bell met on Aurora's deck to talk. "Were you able to find out anything?" "I'm afraid not. As we thought, Zero's systems were so badly burned out that I can't recover anything." "I see. That's unfortunate." Not long ago, Zero died. In doing so, he took some information with him to the grave. Bell asked. "Is it really that important to know about this Rugel guy?" Ixion felt more interest in the name "Rugel" than any other information. Who was Rugel? Why did Zero know him? What did Aster have to do with any of this? These are questions that will never be answered, since the only one who could answer them is no longer in this world. Ixion answered Bell. "The royal ship that was lost in the war. It contained a strange device. From the information you gave me, it was created by that Rugel guy." "That means Rugel used technology from ancient humankind to create it." "Would Zero have helped him?
