You sneaked into my simulation world and started spamming the panel

The nobles around him also noticed Lott's unusual behavior and stepped back. "Hey, he seems different?"

"This is...magic? Isn't he a knight? How can he know magic?"

"Get out of here! It's a self-destruct spell!!"

But it was all too late.

Lott took a deep breath and, amidst the intense light, shouted with unparalleled joy:

"For Isolde!!"

Isolde stopped in her tracks and looked back at the crowd and the dazzling white light behind her.

Chapter 24 Explosion Spell and Valgard Swordsmanship

Lotte's body began to emit heat, and the paladin's limited spiritual energy provided him with precious magical power.

The magic flowed faster and faster through Lot's body, constantly colliding with it, each collision accelerating the flow. After several cycles, a critical point was finally reached, and the two beams of magic collided violently within Lot, unleashing a dazzling, intense light.

"Boom!"

The five or six people closest to Lotte were blown away by the violent explosion, their blood and flesh flying through the air, making the red carpet on the ground even more vibrant.

A powerful blast of air hit everyone's faces, and the shockwave shattered the tableware on the table.

The nobles who were further away, though not dead, had lost parts of their bodies to varying degrees. They knelt on the ground, howling in pain, causing the banquet hall to completely spiral out of control.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

The remaining nobles screamed and shoved each other, trying to escape. They rushed towards the tightly closed gate, ignoring the guards' attempts to stop them, and smashed it open.

"Gentlemen, please don't panic! It's just a small-scale self-destruction, wait..."

"You mere guard, how dare you stop me? Don't you have eyes?!"

"Get out of here! Get out of here! If anything happens to my son, I'll kill your whole family!"

The guards were pushed to the ground and couldn't stop the fleeing crowd at all.

Isolde turned to look in Lotte's direction, but the crowd was too chaotic and blocked her view.

She pulled her hat brim down to cover her face, disappeared into the crowd, and quietly left the banquet hall.

Lotte's soul floated in the air, and he finally experienced the allure of the explosion.

What could be more satisfying than unleashing a self-destruct spell on a crowd?

Moreover, he only realized after his self-destruction that, thanks to the "I'm not dead" talent, he hadn't actually died; his body had just been blown to pieces.

It wasn't until the arriving guards delivered another blow that Lotte finally died.

After calming himself down, he checked the victory settlement panel.

[Explosion Technique Lv.1 → Lv.2, explosion power increased.]

【爆裂术Lv.2→Lv.3（50/100），爆炸威力提升，爆炸位置的控制范围提高至1米。】

Two promotions in a row!

"These noble gentlemen are of a really high rank..."

What surprised Lotte the most was that the Lv.3 [Explosion] skill could now control the location of the explosion!

Although he can currently only contain the explosion within a one-meter radius, which still injures him, Lotte believes that this range will eventually expand as his level increases.

Lotte looked at the attribute points to be allocated, but this time there were only 3 attribute points, far below expectations.

"Hiss~ What's going on? Do different spells provide different attribute points?"

Lotte turned his gaze from the panel to the nobles still struggling on the ground.

This group of people wanted to sacrifice the entire Orlandis, so their deaths were a contribution to humanity, and Lot didn't feel any guilt about it.

He only has one thought in his mind right now.

How come only a few people died?

If everyone were crammed together, and Lotte were surrounded in the very center to unleash [Explosion], that would be the ultimate art.

With Lotte's death, the simulation world begins to accelerate.

[In the year 221 of the timeline, Isolde dies without any heir, and the world rewinds to the year 221.]

A white light flashed before Lotte's eyes, slowly engulfing the banquet hall, and all the noise around him disappeared.

The backtracking process has begun.

Starting Camp €€€€ Forest €€€€ Orantis €€€€ Inn

As the hotel room door closed, Lady Isolde once again removed her veil.

"We've been staying in the hotel for the past month."

"Oh."

Lott wasn't in high spirits because he was going to waste another month doing nothing.

While it's great to have a blast, having to do it only once a month is a little unpleasant.

Isolde said, "I won't be leaving here for a while. I just saw there's a small courtyard behind the inn; I'll teach you swordsmanship there."

"Teach me...swordsmanship?!"

Lotte looked at Isolde's serious expression and confirmed that she wasn't joking.

But as people often say, every gift comes with a hidden price tag, and Lott, remaining skeptical, asked, "May I ask why?"

"We're going to the castle in a month, and you'll have to help me hold off the enemy. I'm only teaching you swordsmanship to ensure the plan goes smoothly."

Is that right?

Isolde didn't know.

This explanation is certainly reasonable, but if she gave the self-destruct ring to Lott and let Lott self-destruct again, the same effect could still be achieved.

But this time, Isolde didn't do that; she didn't mention the self-destruct ring to Loth at all.

Seeing that Lott was still doubtful, Isolde frowned slightly: "You don't want to learn?"

"No, no, no, I want to learn, I want to learn."

Isolde had just briefly taught Lot a [Breathing Meditation] technique, which helped Lot defeat the Mist Bear Spirit.

The swordsmanship she taught this time must be extraordinary!

Lotte followed Isolde downstairs, asking as they walked, "But Lord Isolde, what exactly are we going to do in the castle a month from now?"

“The sacrificial ritual is very complicated. I need to break into the core area beneath the castle, completely analyze the entire magic circle, and then…” Isolde’s voice trailed off, “and then reverse it.”

reverse?

Lotte didn't know what Isolde had gone through in her previous life, and he didn't ask any further questions.

Isolde slipped a gold coin to the shopkeeper and leased the small backyard, where no unauthorized personnel were allowed to enter.

The sunlight slanted down onto the grass, and the green vines hanging from the wall swayed gently in the wind.

A gray and white kitten lay on the eaves, basking in the sun and yawning, watching the two strange people in the yard.

Isolde tossed Lot a wooden stick. "What I'm teaching you is a sword technique that only our family knows. You can't teach it to anyone else."

"no problem!"

Isolde also picked up a stick and pointed it at Lotte, saying, "You need to see my stance carefully."

"it is good……"

Before Lot could finish his first word, Isolde had already pressed the wooden stick against Lot's head.

The icy blue eyes seemed to appear out of thin air before Lot's eyes, and he couldn't see any of Isolde's movements at all.

"Didn't you see it clearly?"

"You were too fast, can we do it again?"

Isolde pondered for a moment before returning to her original position. "I'm sorry, it's my fault. I've never taught anyone. When I was a child, I learned this sword technique through actual combat."

Isolde's face shimmered slightly in the sunlight, and her expression gave Lott a bad feeling.

"Lotte, I will now apply swordsmanship in actual combat. You will have to figure it out on your own."

"Practical application means..."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Isolde slammed the wooden stick in her hand into Lot's forehead.

In actual combat, it means Lotte got beaten up.

Isolde moved so fast that Loth could barely keep up.

In real life, even if such swordsmanship were placed in front of Lotte, he would absolutely not be able to learn it.

Because the real-life Lotte was of a very low level, with low strength and physique, and had never received systematic swordsmanship training.

Most importantly, in reality, Lotte's profession is a mage. Mages are naturally at a disadvantage when learning swordsmanship, and their progress will be extremely slow, or they may not be able to learn it at all.

But now he is the Holy Knight Lot in the simulation world! Holy Knight Lot possesses muscle memory and physical reflexes honed over more than ten years of training, so learning this type of swordsmanship is no problem for him.
