A Transmigrator’s Privilege

Since I still had work to do, I decided to put on hold thinking about the divine power that I had to raise for a long while.

After awakening the divine power, the next turn was the Aura. I finished the level up related to the Aura job change, which I had paused for a while.

The condition for awakening Aura is to exceed level 50 in both Rigid Body and Weapon Skills.

The Rigid Body level had already satisfied the conditions, so only swordsmanship that was on level 49 had to be raised, and after training for about two months, I was able to fill the required experience points.

So, at the beginning of spring, I was able to manifest Aura.

Whodudu.

A sword extended horizontally and as soon as cherry blossom petals hit the white light that dazzles even in the middle of the day, they disappeared.

I stared blankly at the scene for a long time.

“Thank you, Agnes.”

“Honestly, I think it’s a little more touching than when I gained divine power. Maybe it feels like this because it’s an ability that I gained through hard work.”

If I were to measure the distance I have run in the iron man obstacle course so far, wouldn’t it be possible to tour the continent for about ten laps? I can’t even count how many times I’ve been unable to sleep at night due to my sore palms and muscle pains from swinging my sword and whip countless times.

It was not once or twice that I wanted to quit because I was tired. Several times a day, I had a weak thought that only awakening the divine power would be enough. Nevertheless, there was a driving force that had brought me to this point, and that was……

“Honestly, it’s all thanks to Agnes being the instructor.”

<of course,="" of="" course.="" the="" vatican’s="" 1st="" hell="" instructor="" is="" scary="" after="" all.="">

Agnes put both hands on her waist and puffed up. I laughed as I shook my head.

“I don’t mean that.”

<then?></then?>

“It was really cool when Agnes lifted the seven Aura Blades in the air. If you hadn’t shown it in the first place, I might have given up.”

“It was great, absolutely. Agnes is my role model.”

Agnes coughed in embarrassment before replying.

“I’m going to try harder. But you know what, Agnes?”

<what?></what?>

“Agnes is a hero, but I am a legend. I’m higher up, so I’ll stick with my rank badge without taking it off.”

<ugh, you="" are="" really.=""></ugh,>

We looked at each other for a moment and laughed silently.

As if she had suddenly remembered, Agnes said.

“It’s not heresy, it’s ‘The World-building God’.”

</ahem.>

Religion was a sensitive topic, and Agnes and I almost became enemies in the middle of laughing.

At that time, World God appeared as if he knew we were talking about them.

[‘The World-building God’ rushes over and wave the ‘★(Congra-) Sword Master (-tulations)★’ picket.]

Even though these days the preparations for a large-scale update were in the final stages, World God took the time to congratulate me.

‘Thank you, World God.’

[‘The World-building God’ urges you to not be disappointed because the other gods are busy with their work, so he was celebrating as the representative.]

‘Of course. Please give thanks to the other gods of the Transmigration Management Bureau as well.’

Then Agnes said.

</anyway,>

“I know, right. As I said before, I can’t go out of the Count’s castle at will.”

There is a way to get a quest from the World God and go out, but it cannot exceed a week at the most.

The moment the original work begins, the movement radius restrictions are lifted, but in terms of time, it is the spring of the year I turn 20.

It was still far away.

“Overprotective? Hmm, well, that’s one way to interpret it, and it sounds pretty good.”

“Yes.”

At this rate, no matter how much I receive the Blessings for high-speed growth, I will hit a wall and stop growing. It was a difficult situation.

[‘The World-building God’ says you don’t have to worry about that at all.]

“What?”

<what’s wrong,="" ellet?=""></what’s>

“My lord just gave me an oracle that I don’t have to worry about it.”

<huh?></huh?>

[‘The World-building God’ winks and tells you to look forward to the major update next week.]

Oh? Did the Transmigration Management Bureau have a plan?

What kind of update is this? I’m curious.

World God said that he could not reveal the details because it was confidential, and then disappeared to oversee the gods of the development headquarters.

Shortly after saying goodbye, a message appeared.

[‘The Troubled Architect of the Tower of Trials’ looks at you with eyes tired of overtime work.]

I feel like I know the reason for that sullen gaze. I clenched both of my fists toward the architect and shouted “Cheer up.”.

✠

After two weeks of waiting for the transmigrator support system to be updated. A lot had changed in the meantime.

Spring was the season when all things flourish. It was also a good time for people to take a step toward a new beginning.

The Knights Academy in the capital of the Kingdom of Vinchester was like an official certification institution for knights on the whole Serentra Continent.

It was a place where all aspiring knights on the continent were crazy for admission in hopes of receiving a knighthood.

In the new spring, the entrance examination for the Vinchester Knights Academy was openly held, and Frintzs, who received a recommendation from Viscount Carmel was headed for Wilhelon, the capital of the kingdom.

“I’ll be going, Eli. Take care of your health. Mom and Dad, too.”

Frintz, who had become a mature boy, gave us his farewells.

He seems to be going out for a little outing, but in reality, if he passes the exam, he will go through the admissions process and enter the dormitory attached to the military academy almost immediately.

And there was no chance that Frintz would fail his entrance exam.

“I’ll send plenty of potions and pills every month, so make sure to eat them well. I will write you often.”

“Yes, yes. After all, Eli’s the only one I have. If there is someone who bullies you while I’m away, remember their names.”

“Brother, if there is an aristocrat who is territorial at the military academy, write their name in a letter and send it to me.”

My mood while seeing off my brother, whom I would not see often in the future, was bound to be a little gloomy.

Frintz stroked my head with a large hand as if to soothe me. Meanwhile, Frintz had another companion with the same destination.

“Hey, Frintz! Won’t you come soon? I’ll leave you behind!”

“Wait a minute, Young Master. I’ll say goodbye to my parents.”

The grumpy boy with indigo black hair next to him, was Romdio Gillette, the Count’s scoundrel, who grew up with a mean face.

Romdio also decided to enter the military academy. Thanks to a huge donation from the Count of Gillette, he was admitted without examination. It was quite different from the original. In the original story, he found another noble who was qualified to be appointed as a knight and paid for the title.

It’s hard to know what kind of wind blew in his head to give him the idea to enter the military academy and compete fairly and transparently. Was the presence of Frintz a positive stimulus?

Graduation may not be possible, but I just hoped that he would learn a few manners as a knight before coming back.

“I told you to come quickly!”

Frintz couldn’t resist annoyed Romdio’s urging and ended up only hugging our parents one last time to say goodbye.

They broke the space transition stone and disappeared. When even the swarm of lights they left behind had completely dispersed, mother glanced at me and was caring.

“Eli, you don’t really want to go to school?”

This was the thirteenth time I was asked this question. When my mother found out that I had recently awakened to Aura, it seemed that she was feeling sorry for my swordsmanship talent that would not be polished.

“I will train differently in here.”

“Yes. If you change your mind, please tell me. Even if mom has to borrow grandfather’s power, I’ll let you go to school.”

“Thank you for saying that.”

It had been two days since Frintz had left, and before I could adjust to vacuum in the family, another parting came.

“Eli, I have something to tell you.”

“Bia?”

“I am going to the capital for a while.”

“Ah, the social season must have begun. But Bia is still 13 years old. Isn’t it a little too early to attend the Debutant Ball?”

“Yes. So, the debutant is a superficial reason, and I am actually going to look into the central political world.”

“Ah.”

In the main story of the novel, the Vinchester royal family becomes unstable due to a dispute over the succession to the throne.

It seems that the nobles are shrewdly moving as the prince and the princesses gradually set up a confrontation. Up until now, Count Gillette has built a wall with the central political world, but with the ambitious Bianca as the next head of state, the Gillette family’s strategic direction will change.

The war that this fragile-looking noble lady will fight will be fierce.

Bianca said with a slightly bitter smile.

“I’m leaving the day after tomorrow. And depending on the circumstances of the palace, it might be away a little longer.”

“Ah…”

‘A little longer’ probably means a yearly prediction.

My brother’s military enlistment I’ve been mentally preparing for a long time…… but, unlike entering the military academy, the breakup with Bianca felt quite sudden.

I covered my feelings of loss and told stories that might be helpful.

“Be careful, of the First Prince. Because what you see on the outside and your real personality are very different. The 3rd prince has a brother complex, so try not to provoke him, and the 1st princess has a different meaning from the 1st prince, but she’s also quite different inside out, so be careful.”

“I will take your advice.”

[‘The Spoiler Inspector’ opens his eyes.]

Oh, this much is okay. Please cut me some slack.

Because of someone’s watchful eye, there was nothing more I could tell Bia. Instead, I rummaged through my satchel.

“And this…I was originally going to give it to you on your birthday, but I will give it to you now.”

“Hair decoration?”

“Yes.”

What I pulled out was a hairpin made of red corsage with jewels.

“Pretty. It looks like a camellia flower.”

Of course, it’s not just an ordinary accessory that’s just pretty.

It was obtained by paying a large amount of money at the cash shop, and it was described as ‘The accessory used by the legendary femme fatale’.

It was also practical. Wearing it will increase charm.

“It will be useful in the social world. Make a lot of friends since you are going there, Bia.”

“I only need you.”

[‘The Eyes that watch over the chaos of all things’ is deeply touched.]

[‘The World-building God’ drags ‘The Eyes that watch over the chaos of all things’ while asking why he’s here instead of doing QA.]

(Note: QA= Quality Control)

“Don’t say that, Bia. You have to get along with others, too.”

“Yes….”

“After you get to know them well, introduce them to me.”

“I will try.”

Just like that, Bianca also left for Wilhelon, the capital of the kingdom.

It was when I desperately thought I needed something to focus on to forget the vacancy my brother and best friend left.

The transmigrator’s support system, as always, was well-timed.
