Chapter 15
3. How to live as an archduke in a fantasy world – 07
“Oh, my God! What a bright and beautiful light! And this is the very essence of a human being! I see. Was Young master actually a starlight? Or a great being like a star that has fallen to the ground?”
In fact, I quietly nodded my head amid Isabelle’s shocking statement that the essence of a person was light itself.
‘… In the end, did you just get caught up in someone else? About what my true “Essence” Is.’
Yes. Actually I knew To be more precise, it would not be an exaggeration to say that I had guessed it from the moment I was born.
I am talking about the fact that the essence of a person goes beyond the level of being simply good, and is in fact “Light” Itself.
Come to think of it, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that since I was young, countless double lines had been scattered.
When I was in elementary school, I was thinking about punishing a girl who cried out for being my partner with a confession, but I showed mercy and quit. In middle school, I won a silent award for calming the class atmosphere by not talking more than others, and received countless compliments from everyone. It reminds me of the times when I was asked to shake hands.
The earth of the 21st century, engulfed in greedy capitalism, has become so corrupted that it cannot accept my true nature, but this world will eventually recognize my true worth and acknowledge that I am the “Light” Itself.
“Yes. I am the one guided by the stars. He is the only apostle of the stars and at the same time a drop of starlight that will lead this world in the right direction.”
“Starlight!”
Isabel’s entire body trembled with emotion at my solemn reply. It was to the point where I was burdened with shaking my body to such an extent that I was worried that I might run out of breath at any moment.
“Surely, if you are in the position of the heavenly deputy… And if you are an apostle who will be guided by the stars and save this world… “
Puffed up.
Unable to speak further, Isabelle collapsed onto the floor. No, she doesn’t just sit down, she gets down on her knees and bows her head towards me in her truly polite manner.
“I hope, if Young master is truly an apostle of the stars, then I will only hope to follow you faithfully. Please tell me anything. I will be your limb and faithful servant and follow you forever.”
If I just lifted my two legs over there, I would become a Grandel as it is, but since the cutting-edge culture of a Grandel does not exist in the savage fantasy world, I wonder if that is the best courtesy Isabel can show me.
“… So, are you saying you want to be my servant now?”
“Yes.”
“Hmm.”
I kept a poker face on the outside, but inside I was delighted like a Hanwha fan who was already able to watch fall baseball.
A servant! Servant in English! A word that refers to a professional worker who must do anything if the owner, that is, the master, orders it!
Well, the concept of a Servant that Isabel is talking about does not mean a dog-like job that can be forced to do such and such things using a Command Spell, as I saw with Hitomi….
‘But that’s not bad on its own.’
I’m saying this just in case, but I never said it out of anticipation that I might have to play her train with her really reluctantly to recharge her magic with Isabelle.
What I meant to say was that I was able to free myself from the influence of the grand duke’s family and secure someone loyal to me. I mean, I didn’t even think of such a terrible word as meat in the soup in the first place.
Anyway, as far as I know, Isabelle is one of the strongest players in the current material world within ten fingers.
But such an absolute strongman knelt before me, begging to be my servant? It was clear that the guy who didn’t eat this was rather sick.
‘Of course, I’m not in a position to just nod my head in agreement, though.’
The person I am currently acting in front of Isabelle is a person guided by the stars and at the same time an agent of the heavenly gods who serves as the apostle of the stars.
But if such an absolute man rushes at Isabel’s proposal like a midfielder who is crazy about his first CS, won’t my social prestige and the Gao I’ve built up so far be damaged?
Also, it could be said that it is a kind of courtesy to bounce a few times on the surface even if the sh*t line is burnt, as was the case with Zhuge Liang in his youth.
“… I know what you mean. However, I don’t think I understand the true meaning of your remarks.”
“What aspect do you mean you don’t understand?”
“As far as I know, you are an Elyos. Aren’t you Elyos created by the Heavenly God as His servants to spread His will? But how can you serve me when you already serve the Heavenly God as your master?”
Isabel slowly shakes her head from side to side at my sharp question about how you can serve two masters at the same time under the same sky when you are not a woman with three children.
“That’s not true. The heavenly deity dwells in the heavens and observes all beings on earth. In addition, the stars are his eyes for him to look down on the ground, and at the same time he can be said to represent the will of the heavenly beings.”
“And Young master is being guided by the stars, and he is acting on the will of the stars. So if I follow Young master right here, isn’t it the same as following the Heavenly God?”
I’m not sure exactly what you’re talking about, but getting a grade 1 in the new sword and being dragged into active duty and experiencing the sorrow of forced conscription, or getting a grade 4 and playing an active role as the nation’s “Agent”, Or both going to the army I think you should take it as meaning the same.
“Can I make such a hasty decision to become my servant when I don’t even know what I’m going to do or pursue? Is it something you might regret later?”
Even if she whines later about being cheated on by her, taking turns saying that she will never do anything about her AS, Isabelle gently shakes her head to express her disapproval.
“I don’t trust my own judgment. My essence is a celestial tool. Therefore, I only believe in, rely on, and trust in the Heavenly God and the Young master whom the Heavenly God has chosen.”
Isabelle answers my questions without hesitation.

At this point, I decided to raise the fishing rod at this point, judging that further specifications would make it look even worse.
“… Whoa, I can’t even speak. No matter what I say, it seems your decision has already been firmly established.”
‘And rest here for a beat.’
I glanced at Isabelle with melancholy eyes and quietly let out a sigh at her.
“I can’t help it. Even if it wasn’t, it was just the moment when I needed a limb that I could use these days.”
“That, saying yes means that Young master accepted my proposal….”
“Yes, let me accept you. In particular, I will make you my attendant, so that in the future I will do my will.”
“Ah, thank you! It is truly an honor to be your servant, Young master!”
Martin Luther King, who declares that he will first enslave normal free people rather than any master/servant reversal world, was a remark that would make Martin Luther King reincarnated in the underworld due to anger, but Isabella said it was an honor and her eyes twinkled at me. It was just a distance.
But that was the time.
[Achievement achieved!]
[Avoided the death variable that was arranged in the causal rate!]
[Avoided death variable: Fall of the angel ■■■ and descent to the ground.]
[Due to avoiding the death variable, the main quest 『Twilight of the Fallen Angel (S)』 Will disappear!]
[The sub-quest 『A Funeral for the Fallen Angel (A+)』 Will disappear!]
[The sub-quest 『Heaven (SSS)』 Will disappear!]
[As a reward for avoiding the death variable, 「Dragon Heart Fragment (S–)」 Is given.]
[The Archangel ■■■ who fell to the ground has been freed from the bondage of the causal law!]
[The Archangel ■■■ wishes to serve you as the master of your destiny.]
[Please give the Archangel ■■■ a new name.]
‘Perfect.’
I smiled inwardly as I saw the message windows that came up like Vienna sausages.
Yes. The reason why a model citizen like me, who can live without the law, dared to visit a lawless area like a gambling house and play something like gambling that didn’t suit his temper.
It was nothing else but to attract the “Fallen angel Isabelle”, A boss-level monster that was scheduled to plunge countless players into pain and collapse in the second half of the main scenario, to my side.
And sure enough, since I made Isabelle my slave, wouldn’t a message pop up saying that I had avoided the death variable, just like the Grand Duchess did in the past?
‘In addition, I’m lucky to have acquired 「Dragon’s Heart Fragment (S–)」.’
[Dragon’s Heart Fragment (S–)] Is one of the ultra-rare items that make the body healthy and increase the absolute level of mana in the body, although it is disposable.
Originally, it is an item that is difficult to buy even with money, but I never thought it would come into my hands this way.
‘By the way, what’s the point of giving Isabelle a new name?’
I’m not asking you to write a nickname in the character creation window, why are you asking me to give you a new name?
If this was a game, she would have given names like [Vv the greatest invincible warrior vv] Or [89 Sebak Jeomrye Grandma’s Last Taz Dingo], But if it was in real life, Isabelle would file a complaint at the district office or ward office for the rest of her life. You will fall into a situation where you can’t see .
“Isabel.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Since you have entered into a master-servant relationship with me, I will give you a new name first.”
“My new name… Are you talking?”
At my suggestion, Isabelle looked at me with a confused look.
“It is an extremely honorable thing, but… Hello, are you okay? I am worried that it will be an unnecessary burden to the owner.”
“… ?”
I don’t understand why giving names is such a burden. Is there something I don’t know about?
[Please give the Archangel ■■■ a new name.]
[Please give the Archangel ■■■ a new name.]
As I was about to ask Isabelle something, the status window popped up in front of me again. Apparently, this bastard intends to stir-fry people like a moneylender until I give him a name.
“Instead of the name Isabelle… Yes, I will now call your name Sei.”
“… Say?”
As soon as she hears the name Seira, Isabelle looks at me with startled eyes.
“Maybe the owner… Did you know what my true name was?”
“Oh, I knew that.”
In fact, I was well aware that her name, Isabelle, was her pseudonym, and that she had a different true name as an angel.
‘Because I saw it on Namu Wiki.’
Isn’t it a kind of common sense that the old-fashioned and hipster-like documents written on the namu wiki have more credibility and public confidence than the moderate SCI-listed papers?
When she suddenly asked to name her, none came to mind, so I tried naming her with a moderate twist of Isabelle’s true name, which seemed to startle her.
“Truly great man… I cannot fathom the end of your knowledge and wisdom.”
“It’s just a trivial matter, but what?”
I just feel that the praise of Isabelle, no Say, should go to someone anonymous who actually wrote the article on Namuwiki’s ‘Isabelle’.
[I gave the name ‘Sei’ to Chiangel ■■■!]
[A master-servant relationship is established with the chiangel Sei and the law of cause and effect.]
[Supreme master-servant relationship! As a master-servant relationship with Chiangel Sei, ■■ is created as a perk!]
‘■■? What is ■■?’
In commemoration of the master-servant relationship with Sei, I reflexively glanced at the back of her left hand at the message window saying that ■■ was brought to life.
Unfortunately, however, the three geometric patterns did not appear there.
‘Wouldn’t it have given you a Command Spell?’
I sighed in regret and licked my lips.
