Chapter 188 Random Number Adjustment
Part 1
Radrick Atrum Zebrudia chided Franz, who was angry and complaining with a bright red face.
Although they didn’t say anything out loud, the other members of the Knight Order seemed to agree with him while they had a clouded expression on their faces. Marina, my daughter who sat a little further away, also listened to Radrick’s words with an expression as if she was sedated.
“Your Majesty, I can not calm downnn! That, that man, of all people, turned His Majesty and her Highness into frogsss! He told me to crush His Majesty in order to turn you back to normal! Don’t “If I crushed them it would be disrespectful” meee! Even if it was me, of course, it would be disrespectful if I crush His Majestyyy!” (Franz)
Franz shouted with his lips quivering in anger. His subordinates looked at their raging “Commander (Dancho)” with a sorry look.
It was a terrifying Magic. Radrick had never heard of a Magic that could turn a human into a frog. And more than anything, 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 didn’t show any of the signs that would usually appear when a Magi uses Magic.
All that man did was snap his finger. He didn’t seem to have manipulated the Magic power inside his body nor was there any sign of Magic power in his voice. It was at a level that if the phenomenon didn’t happen, I wouldn’t have noticed that he was trying to use Magic.
Term’s magic had almost no time lag before it was activated, and although it was beautiful and extremely powerful, it was in accordance with the principles of Magic techniques.
The miracle caused by 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 is of a different caliber.
“He said that you have to crush it in order to turn it back to a human again, you had no choice, I was the one who told him to do it.” (Radrick)
“It was obviously a lie! In the first place, in what world is there a Hunter who would also turn his escort target into a frog! I thought I knew that Hunters had no dignity, but that was just outrageous! I would rather work with a Level 1 Hunter than work with 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》!” (Franz)
All the blood rushed towards Franz, the “Commander (Dancho)” of the Knight Order, head. It was probably inevitable.
Since the beginning, he had been pushed around by 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》. Even though he has to be wary of the presence of assassins, if he also had to take part in a conflict caused by his allies, of course, he would get angry.
“However, we can’t arrest him. He will just turn us into a frog again, moreover I heard that he had eaten nuts that would interfere with his Magic manipulation.” (Radrick)
I don’t know what it means for a Magi to eat such food during an escort, but since he can use Magic in such a state without problems, we should assume that interfering his Magic by tempering with his magic manipulation wouldn’t work.
At Radrick’s words, Franz took a deep breath to calm himself down, even though he still had a vein popping on his head.
“When the escort is over and we return to the Imperial Capital, I will make sure he will pay for what he did.” (Franz)
“Besides, this case can be called a solid proof that? 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 is not an enemy. After all, it had neutralized us and he did nothing to us.” (Radrick)
“…… There is also the possibility that he gave up because 《Still Water (Shisui)》 wasn’t affected by his technique.” (Franz)
“However, that man’s power is clearly beyond that of 《Still Water (Shisui)》. As it seems that even a famous Level 7 couldn’t see through his trick.” (Radrick)
Moreover, the Magi of the Imperial Guard couldn’t even comprehend the logic behind his Magic of turning humans into frogs.
In a battle between Magi, not knowing the identity of the enemy’s Magic is fatal. That is because you cannot make counter-measures without knowing it first.
Without including the user, there were three people who escaped being turned into frogs. The only person from the Emperor’s side who was spared was the most skilled Magi in the Imperial Guard.
An excellent Magi has a high level of resistance towards Magic. It may have helped her avoid turning into a frog, but even such an excellent Magi has never seen magic like that before.
《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 has a terrifying power that doesn’t match his appearance. Moreover, that might be his trump card. And that was all we know about him for now.
“I will use everything that I can. Right now, the enemy is the 『Fox (Kitsune)』.” (Radrick)
“However, if that guy is……………… As your Majesty wishes.” (Franz)
Franz stammered for a moment but turned his face down at Radrick’s resolute voice.
I knew what you were going to say. And that is also why I stopped you.
“The 『True Tear (Tear of the Truth)』 cannot be deceived by any Magic users.? That thing is the truth itself.” (Radrick)
It is true that the behavior of 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 was very unnatural, but their suspicion has been proven false by the Relic that created the foundation of the Empire.
There was no logic to a Relic that was a product of nature itself and a reproduction of past times. Questioning the authenticity of its power was out of the question.
In the unlikely event that 《Infinite Variety (Senpen Banka)》 really knew how to deceive the Relic, then that would be a problem that would shake down the Empire to its very core.
At Radrick’s words, Franz gave his approval in a small voice.

“Moh, I don’t care about Yowaningen anymore, desu! Do you have a grudge against me or something, desu?!” (Kruz)
After she managed to get back to her original form and returned to my room, Kruz was still furious. It seems that she was very upset that she was turned into a frog.
Is this the fate of those with power…… I made a badass expression and answered her.
“Here, here, aren’t you glad that you could turn back.” (Cry)
“!? Was there the possibility that I couldn’t turn back!? ………… Desu.” (Kruz)
“I guess if we had waited five more minutes……” (Cry)
“!???” (Kruz)
Kruz received a shock at what I randomly said.
The Emperor frogging incident came to an end when we managed to return him back to his original form. Apparently, the technique I used was the same as the one Lucia had used before. Maybe my instincts understood Lucia’s technique and mastered it with just a single glance. The backlash of my incompetence is way too strong.
TL notes:
Thanks for reading!
“The backlash of my incompetence is way too strong.” that sentence killed me.
Looks like Cry really think that he was the one who frogged everyone XD
And Kruz believing him! She is so gullible!
Tchao à plus!
