After thinking for so ti Elena rejected the agent's request of handing over Dicovolve.
"I do understand why the royal family must have headmaster Dicovolve, but unfortunately I can't let him go. You can actually consider him dead and just forget about it. You may also do sothing to glorify his contribution to the kingdom and a nationwide mourning for his passing too. I didn't think an avenger would mind sothing like that. Please consider this, your royal highness."
Then Elena gave the flustered agent a little smile and said -
"You didn't actually believe that you will be able to hide that communication device from who is a demigod, right? Do understand that for demigods finding sothing like this is very easy.
And as for the audience. Umm, I don't have much to do tomorrow. How about tomorrow? You may decide the ti."
...
At that exact ti the king of the Myrilia Kingdom, Victor Estatet was sweating buckets after Elena was easily able to find the hidden communication device. He cursed in his mind -
"Damn you, Lionerd. You and your bragging. Hmph -even a demigod can't find this device as it had a secret magic formula- hah. Secret magic my foot."
But he soon ca down and also got a little irritated by Elena's behaviour and way of talking. But after rembering the report from Margrave Canvisiny and learning about Elena's level being 666, he forcefully held back his irritation.
"Ahh, I should sohow keep this pride of mine in check. I had gotten myself into problems because of it before. Keep cool, Victor. Her age is equivalent to so of your grandchildren. Ei, now that I think about it, how did she get this strong in such a short ti?"
Let's not think about it. For now, I will just et her tomorrow.
"Fransis, tell miss Elena that I am also free tomorrow and she could co in the evening to have dinner with the royal family. I would have an audience with her before that."
"Yes, your August High-"
Just as Fransis was going to reply to the king with his ntal ssage, Elena's voice ca out of the communication device.
"I understand. Okay then, I will et you tomorrow evening. Bye."
It was supposed to be that only Fransis could hear the king's voice through this device. And the ssage Elena told the king just now was not spoken by her but it was a ntal ssage which once again should be impossible as only Fransis should have the ability to send ntal ssages through this device.
...
After hacking the device network with her magic and finding the perfect wavelength Elena told her king her reply. She did this intentionally to show a bit of her strength but also because she found the king's reactions to be hilarious. She never thought an old man like him who was also a king of a nation would have a habit of talking to himself. Elena found it quite funny. He also had a special kind of ntal disease which increased his pride and arrogance. He had an inferiority complex in his childhood and when he beca the king after passing the trial, this inferiority complex beca this ntal disease, where he started to have excessive pride.
"Fufu. I think I will have a delightful conversion with him tomorrow."
...
The next day the whole royal palace was very busy from the morning. The king was inviting a demigod rank powerhouse for the first ti since the establishnt of the kingdom so he wanted to give the best possible reception to her. So the palace maids and man-servants were very busy decorating the palace.
In all this preparation, it was impossible to keep the guests identity under wraps but the king managed to control the information flow and only told the nobles that an A rank adventurer who had the strength of an S rank is visiting the palace. It would be a big deal if the royal family could enlist the help of a S ranker. So the nobles didn't find this strange.
...
At the sa ti, Elena, the adventurer team "Mismatched Piece" and the three teachers of the academy were in the basent of Elena's house watching Dic and Lux, who were about to wake up.
It would be impossible to have a normal conversation with Dic if she stayed in his current state, so for that reason with so unwillingness, Elena healed him a little bit.
The first one to wake up was Lux and after waking up he was looking at Elena with a list look on his face. After rembering what happen he instantly looked towards Dicovolve. After seeing him still alive a look of regret flashed past his eyes. But he was able to soon calm himself down. He asked Elena in a steady tone -
"It must be you who put to sleep last ti right?"
"Yes. That's right."
Sucking in a breath, he said -
"You're really strong. Even tho I was weakened, I was unable to even react to your speed."
"Please don't mind it, grandpa Lux. Ah, sorry I forget to ask your permission. Can I address you as grandpa Lux ?"
"If you're okay with calling soone like grandpa young lady, then who am I to object?"
"Don't say it like that, I always have a special respect in my heart for avengers. So don't put yourself down like that."
"But I'm actually not really a avenger tho. I missed the opportunity to kill this basterd. I didn't collect enough information about him and his trump cards. I could have chosen a better situation to attack him. I even put the life a completely unrelated person in danger after getting blinded by rage. I'm not really worthy of your respect young lady."
Lux said all that to Elena with a self-deprecating smile. Hearing him Elena gave him sweet smile and said -
"Grandpa Lux, you're right. You are definitely not a perfect avenger because as you have said, you made a lot of mistakes. But I didn't say I respect you because you're a proper avenger.
I'm my opinion, an avenger is soone who had enough determination to go through hell to get his revenge and have the will power to never give up. You have both of these qualities and that's why I respect you."
Listening to Elena Lux had nothing more to add, so he lowered his head a sad and also a gratifying look in his eyes.
In this mont Dicovolve also wake up. Grogily he said -
"Where am I ?"
Hearing his voice, Lux's face took on a very ferocious look. But before he could take any action Elena said -
"Good morning, headmaster Dicovolve. You're inside my house's basent. We also have your student and colleagues here alongside your enemy's students. As an outsider, now I will stop speaking. Please everyone feel free to tell what you all think to the headmaster."
