This man is known to all the nobles of Langarde...
The world's greatest genius in a thousand years, he defeated many powerful superiors at the age of twelve and dominated the King's Martial Arts Ceremony.
This person is completely different from his overly young appearance. Beneath that deceptive exterior, he hides the powerful strength of a superior being!
With my own strength, I have absolutely no chance of winning...
"I, I vote..."
call out--!
Before he could finish his words of surrender, a beam of light hit Bozera's forehead.
Then Bozera's eyes rolled back and he fell straight down, unconscious.
Looking at the successfully subdued Bozera, Hulim said calmly:
"It's too troublesome, so please go to bed directly."
Buzz——!
Just then.
The floor of the entire hall suddenly lit up with a light belonging to a magic circle.
Hulim tiptoed and pretended to fly away from the magic circle.
However, she didn't have time to leave.
The halos gathered together, forming glowing circles around her body.
Hulim just glanced at the halos surrounding her.
Then you will know its effect.
A magic circle that seals the three types of magic: fire, light, and nothingness, as well as restricts movement.
"... ...The preparations are truly foolproof."
Snap, snap...
Several footsteps sounded in the hall.
"Welcome~, Hulim Hyeral~!"
A man with a scale tattoo on his forehead said to Hulim with a smile.
“… …”
Hulim's eyes calmly swept over the few people, finally landing on the man with the scales tattoo.
Libra tattoo...
So that's it, is this the person?
"Who are you?"
Hulim asked calmly.
"Oh, that's really rude~! Let me introduce myself. I'm an 'investor', traveling between countries and investing in people with 'promising prospects'."
"'Investor'? That doesn't sound like a name."
"Haha, yes, this is indeed a code name, but I have long since given up on names, so just think of it as mine~."
“… …”
Hulim carefully examined the "investor" in front of him and spoke slowly.
"I have a question for you."
"Of course, I'm not in a hurry~ Anyway, I have plenty of time."
The "investor" replied with a relaxed look.
Hulim did not show any strangeness towards the other party's overly calm attitude, and her expression remained calm.
"What exactly is your purpose? To provoke civil unrest in the empire?"
"Hehe~, you seem to have misunderstood something~."
The investor laughed.
"I must state one thing, we are pacifists and never use the crude means you imagine to achieve our goals."
"...pacifism?"
"I know what you want to say. You think I'm just trying to stir up internal strife, with the goal of making everyone fight to the death, right?"
"Isn't it?"
"Of course not! Let me put it this way, do you know what wealth is?"
“… …”
Just as the investor claimed, he didn't seem anxious at all, but rather very interested in talking to Hulim.
"Many people think that wealth is money, and in many cases the two can indeed be equated. But for us, money? Treasures? No, no, no! None of them! The so-called essence of wealth—"
“That’s the value!”
"Anything that possesses value is part of wealth. People, territories, organizations, and even status—everything that possesses value is wealth. This is true wealth!"
"What we hold is never something as superficial as a few gold coins, but something of value that can be mobilized at any time."
"And the way to grasp those values is to invest! Giving some support will eventually yield rewards far greater than the support itself! That's why we are named 'Investors'."
"And since it's an investment, then it's naturally impossible to make an investment that won't yield a return from the start, right?"
"...I see. So your investment in Drehak is real? But from what I understand, Drehak wouldn't accept your investment."
"You're right," the "investor" replied with a smile, "Dreyhak will definitely not accept our investment. He'll even order our execution the moment he sees him."
"But you have to know that a faction is not made up of just one person."
"It's a complex group of interests. Just because Derehak wouldn't do something doesn't mean others in his faction wouldn't do it..."
... ...
Time goes back to a day before the Alicia faction and the Felenna faction were attacked.
Marsim Lightye, one of the core figures in the Grand Prince Drehak's faction, encountered a strange visitor...
"What is your purpose here?"
Malsim said in a cold tone.
He had heard of the man in front of him; he was a guy with a very bad reputation.
"Please be patient, my Lord. I come here with sincerity."
