Rebirth Just Before The 10th Circle

After that, the emperor's tour of the Sirius continued for a long time, and their visit naturally moved to the demonstration hall prepared by the research institute.

“Okay, what are you going to show me this time? I always look forward to every time I come to this lab. I will tell you what kind of pleasure the warden will bring to me.”

"haha. It must be an achievement that satisfies His Majesty's expectations.”

The emperor and his party entered the demonstration hall while chatting.

Merlin, who had entered the demonstration hall, was able to get out of his seat in advance and find the research team 1 in preparation.

It was immediately felt that they were very nervous at the appearance of the emperor.

After a while, Merlin's head tilted as he watched the emperor and nobles take their seats in the seat on one side of the demonstration hall.

"what? Why is that old man here?”

He saw a familiar among those who stood behind the emperor.

A mixed existence among the attendants.

He was none other than Earl Powells, the headmaster of the Academy.

‘You said you visited the academy first, so did you stick with it?’

Count Powells, unaware that he had such a gaze on himself, was watching the behavior of the Emperor and Crown Prince.

‘Today is your chance!’

Although Earl Powells is said to be a pro-duchess, in reality he was a power-oriented person.

When he was a child, he did not like his family, who was satisfied with his small well called the Academy, and as that feeling grew, his greed for power grew like a monster.

He obtained a higher status than before by consecrating the academy, which had been run by the family for generations, to the empire, and he used the academy to build friendships with many nobles.

Although he formed such a thick layer of networking, his relationship with the emperor, the peak of his power, was not deep.

pro-dukes and emperors.

Count Powells tried to develop the power of the family by using it appropriately between two opposing factions.

‘I have to somehow make a relationship with the royal family today!’

He was the Earl of Powells, confident in twisting even a thin thread like a rope.

While Earl Powells looked around, the research results were ready to be demonstrated.

Seeing this, the commander ordered.

“Start.”

As soon as the director's words were finished, Research Team 1 began to present their research.

An iron plate with a magic circle was prepared in front of them.

The research team leader-level researcher of Research Team 1 said, pointing to the iron plate.

“The name of this circuit is the Gravity Reversal Circuit. Rather than a long explanation, it will be easier to understand if you watch it once, so let’s start right away.”

When the team leader said so, the team members began to insert mana stones into the iron plate prepared by the team members.

OK.

Woong-

A magic circle that emits a faint light.

When the magic was activated, the team leader of Team 1 extended his hand to the team member, and the team member placed a small ball in his hand.

The team leader gently placed the ball on top of the magic circle.

Then, the ball that was supposed to fall to the ground soared straight up.

“Huh?”

"Five?!"

Small surprises erupted here and there at the strange phenomenon.

After that, the team leader lightly received the ball that soared into the sky, said the team leader.

“Within the scope of the sheet on which this circuit is drawn, gravity acts in reverse. So any heavy object can float. Due to this effect, the gravity reversal circuit will be used in many fields such as the sudden start of the Sirius, sudden braking, and the ascent and descent of the fuselage.

After that, the team leader showed several more demonstrations.

As it was the opportunity to present the research of the past few months to the emperor, he had prepared a lot, and the results were also very satisfactory.

However, the emperor's complexion was not very good as he was watching this.

After all the demonstrations were over and the research team left, the emperor opened his mouth.

"Intestine."

“Please command me.”

“What I saw today seems to be the application of the zero-gravity circuit that I showed you in the laboratory the other day? Am I wrong?”

"···no. Your Majesty knows right.”

“Hmmm…”

The emperor who looks uncomfortable to plant something.

This caused an awkward silence in his hall.

The emperor's question a while ago was in a tone as if he had spent so much time preparing for it.

The superintendent quickly noticed this.

'It's as expected...'

The director's gaze turned and the deputy chief's eyes met.

nod-

As the deputy chief nodded his head, the chief hurriedly opened his mouth.

"sire."

“Say it.”

“Actually, there was not one demonstration I would like to show you this time.”

"Five? is it?"

“It is.”

The warden bowed his head slightly and looked behind him.

The deputy chief patted Merlin on the back.

It meant to get out.

'Ehyo...'

Merlin, who had already known that this was going to happen from the moment the warden and the deputy director exchanged signals with their eyes.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

Merlin let out a small sigh inwardly and trudged to stand next to the warden.

When she saw the little boy who suddenly appeared, she dazzled the emperor's eyes.

“Who is this child?”

“He is the chief researcher of our lab.”

“Is this kid talking?”

The emperor looked surprised when he heard that the boy, who looked younger than the prince, was the chief researcher of the institute.

Then he glanced at the warden and Merlin.

Seeing as if this child had the ability to do that, the warden smiled and said.

"haha. You can look forward to it. Researcher Merlin, let me show you.”

"···Yeah."

“Yes,” he answered, but for Merlin, it was an absurd feeling.

‘No, what do you expect me to show you when you don’t know what I’m going to show you?’

The problem was that the director and the deputy director believed too much even if they believed in themselves.

The party actually couldn't decide what to show, but they laid the plate out.

Of course, this was due to a lie she had told herself, so she was a problem for Merlin.

‘Ah… what are you really showing?’

Merlin was worried.

I was going to show you something and finish it, but now I can't.

Behold, those eyes full of anticipation of the emperor.

‘Oh, it’s really embarrassing.’

The gravity reversal magic circle a while ago was surprising enough for ordinary people to see.

However, the emperor, far from being surprised, showed a sign of discomfort again, saying that he was afraid to eat what he had seen before.

'···Hey, wait a minute?'

Merlin's thinking changed suddenly.

‘You mean the emperor?’

He now had a cold expression in front of his eyes that the most powerful man in the empire had expected.

Merlin's nib moved.

‘What if I show you something that will satisfy those expectations?’

How will the emperor react?

The corners of Merlin's lips moved slightly as he thought of this.

‘Come to think of it, there’s nothing wrong with having a relationship with the emperor, right?’

In fact, there was nothing wrong with it, but it was an unconditional advantage.

After organizing his thoughts, I thought of playing big on the boards laid out by the director and deputy director.

The selection of magic to be presented with him is the same.

'Good. If this is the case, even the emperor will be satisfied to some extent.’

The corners of Merlin's lips moved slightly.

Emperor (4)

Emperor (4)

Merlin's footsteps after she had made up her mind headed towards the mana stone box on one side.

He picked up the whole box of mana stones and entered the demonstration hall.

Then he squatted down and began to draw his magic circle.

Kiddick Kiddick-

The appearance of Merlin drawing a magic circle on the floor was clearly compared to the thorough preparation of Team 1, which was demonstrated a while ago.

The Emperor asked, wriggling his eyebrows slightly.

“Hmm… Warden? What is he doing?”

“Wait a minute, please.”

The dismay was the same for the warden.

But the warden kept his embarrassment as much as possible and told him to wait.

The reason he could say that was because of his faith in Merlin.

Kick-Kick- Kick-

Merlin draws a magic circle on the floor of the demonstration hall at a speed that is neither fast nor slow.

Seeing this, the nobles who followed as attendants murmured.

“Ts. Did you know that His Majesty was coming, but you didn't prepare for it?"

“What am I doing?”

So 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes...

Merlin drew two magic circles 10m apart and made the emperor wait for 30 minutes.

When the situation was around that time, the director and the deputy director had no choice but to shed a cold sweat.

‘Is it enough to take this much time?’

It was Merlin who would create a magic circle in an instant if he just drew a magic circle, but he intentionally drew the magic circle with a hard look.

He straightened his back and patted him, observing the reaction around him.

"Intestine? How long are you going to let this go!”

“Joe, please wait a little longer, Crown Prince.”

Eventually, the Crown Prince made an angry voice.

Contrary to such a prince, the emperor only looked at Merlin with curious eyes rather than getting angry.

‘Even if there is this riot around you, you will continue to do your job steadfastly.’

The corner of the emperor's lips twitched slightly.

He began to look forward to what the young researcher with this big wall would really show.

Meanwhile, there was a voice that brightened the complexion of the warden, who was bewildered by the emperor and the crown prince.

"it's over."

Merlin's voice said that it was finally over.

The Emperor looked at Merlin with a funny face.

“Young researcher.”

"Yes."

“You made me wait 30 minutes now. Do you know what this means?”

"Your Majesty's golden hour must have been used for 30 minutes because of me."

“I know you well. Then, do you know the responsibility for the time I am not satisfied with the value of my time spent on you?”

It was intimidating.

It wasn't just a threat, it was the emperor's threat.

But Merlin saw this and smiled again.

“I know. But...”

“·················ogue.”

“What will your majesty do if you show your majesty something worth more than the thirty minutes you spent?”

Merlin's bold words.

The warden and others opened their mouths wide, and the Crown Prince showed an open displeasure.

On the other hand, the emperor did not show any particular reaction and had a dull face.

Others were displeased with Merlin's bold attitude, but did not step forward because the Emperor had not responded.

So, the attention of the left was focused on himself.

Merlin said with a smirk.

“Come on, let’s see.”

just-

Merlin rubbed his fingers.

A clear and light sound resounded, and a change occurred in the magic circle.

Woong-

Bizarre sounds and lights.

The change of the magic circle was not much different from the announcement of the previous research results.

However···.

“Huh? What is that?”

Someone vomited a flagship.

It was because a bizarre phenomenon was taking place in the magic circle that Merlin had drawn.

blah-

The space split above the two magic circles, and the black hole opened wide.

Even the emperor was surprised by such a bizarre phenomenon.
