Chapter 41-1
Ottos symptoms of poisoning were very serious.
The poison from the Calypso was closer to a magic curse than a chemical substance, so it was impossible to cure with ordinary detox potions.
Im doing my best, but Ive never seen such a severe toxicity in my life.
Even the skilled Koutachi familys specialized magician seems to be having a hard time with the toxicity.
But there was still hope.
Step aside. I will personally treat him.
Conrad, who had rushed in, pushed the healers aside and examined Ottos condition himself.
Its a terrible curse.
As an excellent swordsman, Conrad could tell Ottos condition at a glance.
Everyone, step back. Im going to use detox magic.
Conrad inscribed magic circles on Ottos body and cast the spell.
About 10 minutes later
Where am I?
Otto opened his eyes.
Do you have your senses back?
Your Higness?
Huu.
Conrad furrowed his brow.
Should you be calling your grandfather by such a formal title?
.Yes?
From now on, call me Grandfather.
Conrads attitude towards Otto had changed a lot.
After opening the Sanctuary, he not only recognized Otto as a member of the Koutachi family, but also treated him like a grandson.
[Notification: Your affinity has increased!]
[Notification: Conrads affinity towards you has changed to Warm Affection!]
Conrad was a person who pursued skills thoroughly.
He didnt give any attention to those who didnt have the qualifications, even if they were family.
However, he had a double-sided nature, being endlessly kind and warm to those he recognized.
Since Otto had opened the Sanctuary, and returned safely from the exploration.
Although there was some danger due to the symptoms of poisoning, it was only natural that Conrads affinity towards him increased.
Yes, Grandfather.
Otto smiled at Conrads changed appearance.
How are you feeling?
I feel refreshed.
I thought so. I treated you myself, didnt I?
As expected of you, Grandfather. Hehe.
Well, by the way how was the Sanctuary? What did you find there?
As I mentioned before, there were abilities of the Invincible Emperor.
Oh! So you obtained it?
I havent obtained all of them yet.
Hmm!
However, I did learn one of the Invincible Emperors sword techniques and abilities.
Invincible Emperors sword technique!
Conrads face was filled with anticipation.
There are many excellent sword techniques in the world, but none can compare to the Invincible Emperors sword technique.
It was only natural for Conrad to expect to learn that technique.
Did you really learn the Invincible Emperors sword technique?
Yes, Grandfather.
How can you say you learned it in such a short time?
Well, you see
Otto briefly explained what had happened inside the Sanctuary to Conrad.
Wow Did you say you trained for five years? In just a few days?
Yes, Grandfather.
Youre amazing. Its not a long time to learn the basics of the Invincible Emperors sword technique.
Conrad was not disappointed by Ottos words.
Conrad is a Magic Swordsman.
Having trained with a sword for a long time, he knew that five years was not a long time to lay the foundation.
What kind of ability did you obtain?
I still dont know for sure.
Hmm?
I need time to learn about the ability I acquired.
I see. Its not an official training, so its natural. Okay, rest for a while and take time to study the Invincible Emperors sword technique and abilities. However, dont forget to report to me whenever you make progress. Do you understand?
Yes, Grandfather.
Rest well.
As Conrad left the hospital room, a smile came to his lips.
***
The next day.
Having recovered, Otto had breakfast with Camille and talked about various things.
You almost got into big trouble. Are you completely recovered now?
Yeah, my grandfather treated me, and I slept well yesterday, so I feel completely fine today.
Thats really good news.
Thank you for worrying about me.
Dont mention it.
Anyway, how are we going to deal with Javier and Kujo from now on?
As soon as Otto left the sanctuary, he began to think about crushing the enemies.
From now on, it was a war.
Conrad may not be able to move rashly with his eyes of people on him, but Javier and Cuzo would not retreat like this.
They would employ all sorts of dirty tactics to remove Otto, and could even incite a rebellion if necessary.
Anyway, they are such a headache.
When Otto grumbled like that,
Wrooom! Wrooom!
The iron mace hanging from his waist vibrated strongly.
[Hey, keep your promise, rookie! Dont tell me youre going to break the promise you made with me!]
[Hand over your body right now!]
[Why dont you answer me?]
Kairos voice echoed in Ottos mind.
Ah, Shut up! Otto frowned annoyingly.
Whats wrong?
Camille was surprised.
Ah, dont mind me. He keeps bothering me.
Otto pointed to the iron mace hanging from his waist and shouted back at Kairos.
How long have you been bothering me? It hasnt even been 24 hours since I left the sanctuary! Cant I eat first? Food! Do you want me to drink on an empty stomach as soon as I wake up? And its not even lunchtime yet! Its not even daytime drinking! Its breakfast drinking!
[Youre so ignorant. Dont you know that you can drink anytime? Whats the difference between morning and afternoon?]
Just wait! Ill let you drink later tonight!
[Is that true?]
I promise!
[Well then, since Im so generous]
Youre funny. You complain like a little kid and beg for drinks.
Otto said that and then cut off the connection with Kairos.
Huh! Did he become a ghost because he died without being able to drink alcohol at the end?.
What do you mean?
He wants to borrow my body for a drink later tonight.
What?
Im going to treat him to a drink tonight.
Are you sure?
Camille looked surprised and asked a little worried.
Dont worry about me. If he wanted to take my body, he had plenty of opportunities. But instead, he helped me. Its something I promised out of gratitude, so I have to keep it.
I understand.
Lets just finish our meal for now.
Yes.
