I, Who Was Dismissed as Worthless Failure by my Family and Fiancée, Discovered I had Reincarnated as a Game Character I Raised with Great Care and Vowed to Take Control of my Life and Defy Anyone who Opposes Me. - Chapter 138: Transparent Magic Door

Chapter 138: Transparent Magic Door

“Ha…?”

Just when I had given up in despair, believing there was absolutely no hope of making it in time and resigning myself to the fate of becoming Prevost’s plaything. A man beside Emperor Gaius suddenly appeared.

The door to the room remained closed, and the distinct sound of creaking wood was unmistakable when the door opened, so it couldn’t be missed if it had been opened.

How on earth had this man managed to enter this room?

Moreover, this area was reserved for family members or authorized individuals. If this man had been accompanying Emperor Gaius from the beginning, I would have understood. However, based on my memory, there hadn’t been anyone like that before, and Emperor Gaius had entered this room only with a male attendant who served as both a valet and a guard.

Even if this man had attempted to approach this room directly, he would have been stopped at the entrance by someone familiar with the protocols and wouldn’t have been allowed to enter.

Considering all this, it was utterly inconceivable for this man to be present in this room. Furthermore, Emperor Gaius referred to this man as ‘Kaisar-sama’ as he spoke.

If what Emperor Gaius was saying was true, shouldn’t this individual known as Kaisar-sama have been in the Imperial magic academy right now? Does that mean his presence here contradicts the claim that he’s at the Empire’s magical academy?

The mysteries are piling up so much that my head is on the verge of exploding.

“Um… Um, the person over there… Who exactly…”

I abandoned my thoughts and realized that if I didn’t know, it would be quicker to ask Emperor Gaius. With that in mind, I managed to coax out the words.

“Ah, my apologies. Allow me to introduce him. This individual here is none other than the Kaisar-sama I mentioned earlier. He went through the trouble of employing the null attribute magic [Space-time Gate], journeying all the way from the Empire’s magical academy to the Holy Kingdom. And not only that, with the help of this magic, he is willing to take you back to the Empire. Escaping to the Empire should provide enough refuge from Prevost’s threat. Once I’ve dealt with Prevost, the Holy Maiden can return to the Holy Kingdom.”

“Huh? Wait? What? Yes… uh…”

Emperor Gaius then explained under the guise of an introduction for Kaisar-sama how he had arrived at this location and how he planned to shelter me. According to Emperor Gaius, if I understood correctly, Kaisar-sama had used magic to travel from the Empire to the Holy Kingdom and intended to temporarily shelter me in the Empire using that same magic.
