Reincarnation Sim Game

94 94 – The Young Master



I slapped my forehead while checking Yua’s attributes. The text of the Illusion effect skill that she just got is gray, not black like her other skills. The kunoichi couldn’t use it without a magic stat of at least C-.

“You really can’t get that thing out, Yua?” I repeated my question. “If you can get it out, you can ask Tracy, who is a mage, for help. She will use the scroll of illusion instead.”

“Sorry, sir.” Yua sighed. “I really can’t get this thing out of my body.”

“Well, this is very troublesome, indeed,” Erbau commented.

If I had known something like this would happen, I would have warned Yua not to put that damn thing in her body. Maybe I should think of another way, even though the competition will be held tomorrow morning. Or perhaps I should find a way for Tracy to use the thing inside Yua’s body.

“Ah….” An idea popped into my head. “Maybe we can try something…. However, I’m not entirely sure this will work. I will still think another way, for the time being.”

In the morning, in Lilian’s workroom, Tracy scratched her head, trying to understand what Yua had just said.

“So, basically, you are asking me to use the scroll of illusion inside you?” The mage wearing the dark blue robe was still not convinced.

“I apologize in advance for asking like this, Miss Elmer. But what is your strategy to persuade my son?” Lilian, who was sitting behind the giant table, asked. There are two inverted tornado buns in her head now, not just one like yesterday. However, the size of the buns was smaller than before.

It took a few seconds before Tracy could answer. “Well… Talking to him, maybe?”

“Your chances of succeeding are very slim. Even I, his own mother, always fail to persuade him.” Madam Algernon rose to her feet, slightly adjusting her dark green dress. The color is almost the same as Yua’s outfit. “You’d better join Miss Yua…. How about this. If you succeed, neither of you will share the prize. You will get the same amount as announced.”

Tracy grimaced. “I must admit, the offer is attractive, Madam Algernon. However, I’m still not convinced.”

“That’s why we should try it now.” Yua patted the mage’s shoulder. “It just so happens that we already have the right person to be our subject.”

Tracy, Yua, and Lilian looked at Elise sitting on the sofa watching Mona. The dog was eating from a plate. Noticing the attention that fell on her, Elise just kept silent,

“Sorry, we can’t ask Madam Algernon, Elise.” Yua clasped her hands together. “She still has to keep an eye on the contest. Perhaps this thing’s effects will hinder her from doing her job well.”

“Relax, Elise.” Raymund provides insurance. “I’m sure it won’t really hurt you. You heard yourself from Lilian and Tracy’s description. The scroll of illusion can’t hurt you physically. Well, maybe the only side effect is the illusion lasts a few hours.”

Feeling that she had no choice, Elise could only nod.

“Okay, hold my hand, Tracy.” The kunoichi raised her hand. “And imagine that I am the scroll of illusion. That thing is fused with me. So, it could be said that it was a part of me. In this first trial, I will be the one to think about the illusion. If that fails, it will be your turn.”

“I will repeat my instructions again.” Raymund began his explanation. “You should also think that you are the scroll of illusion, Yua. You have to focus on activating that thing. This method is just my hypothesis, but there’s no harm in trying it.”

Tracy held Yua’s hand, then both closed their eyes. Several minutes passed without anything significant happening. Lilian looked so worried and fiddled with her fingers.

Getting impatient, Madam Algerton opened her mouth. “How? Is there any….”

“It worked.” Elise looked into one corner of the room. A giant teddy bear is doing breakdancing there. The female warrior wasn’t sure that the people at Levidna knew a teddy bear, let alone one that moved swiftly like that.

Then, a knocking sound from the entrance resonated. “Excuse me, Madam Algernon. I’m Victor, in charge of guarding the warehouse. I want to report something very important.”

“He just reported that now, huh?” A chuckle escaped Raymund’s mouth. “I’m sure he frantically searched for it all night. Now he gave up and was forced to tell her.”

Yua exchanged glances with Lilian, who whispered, “All of you go. I’ll take care of it.”

The women said goodbye, then left the room. Yua waved her hand at Victor, who gaped at the kunoichi. The man looked tired.

After breakfast, the adventurers gathered in the field to participate in the contest. They all surround a white line that forms a circle.

“Make way for the young master Elmer Algernon!”

Upon hearing the announcement from a guard, several adventurers stepped aside, letting a small boy pass. With a neat haircut and clothes typical of nobles, he sneered as he watched the adventurers.

Yua smiled at Victor, who also accompanied Elmer. The guard snorted at the kunoichi.

Elmer sat on a chair in the center of the arena, looked around, then spoke lazily. “I can practice on my own. I’m a genius who doesn’t need a teacher. I’ve read many books about magic, ranged attacks, and melee. I’ve practiced a lot, and I’m sure I can fight well. I’m only here on my mother’s orders. You’d better go home, so this bullshit can end quickly.”

The little boy folded his arms across his chest, looking back at the adventurers, who couldn’t help but remain silent. Some of them looked like they wanted to squeeze the little boy.

“I want to kick his head so bad.” Raymund made a sound like someone spitting.

“You still think you’ll be able to persuade him, Elise?” Yua whispered to her partner.

“My turn is before you,” Elise replied coldly. Something she rarely does. “I will show that educating a child can be non-violent, even if the child is like that.”

“Then, if you succeed, what will happen?” Yua continued. “Perhaps you really can persuade him, but in the end, you have to go, right? You can’t train that boy all the time. You will move on to other missions.”

“I will persuade him again to train with someone else.”

Raymund let out a scornful laugh. “Good luck, Elise.”

A guard opened a roll of paper, then gave an announcement. “Please come forward! First participant! Buddy Buttman!”
