“You’re doing well, Robenalt.”
“This is excellent, Robenalt.”
“Young Master Robenalt, you’re doing well enough.”

Valerian, the eldest son of the Duplain family, could already use 2-star magic by the time he reached adulthood, and Linus, the firstborn of the Belmierd family, was widely trusted and respected both inside and outside the mansion for his unique and carefree charisma.
However, Robenalt, the eldest son of Beltus, was neither exceptional in magic nor possessed of a charisma capable of leading others, and despite his efforts, he had no clear achievements to his name.
Because of this, the words Robenalt heard most while growing up were words of encouragement such as, “You’re doing well enough.”
That didn’t mean he was incompetent, but he was such a lukewarm existence that it felt pitiful to call him the firstborn of the mighty Beltus.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
His younger sister, Denise, was the same.
Whenever Robenalt’s confidence wavered, she would speak naturally, as if it were nothing, with a calm, nonchalant look.
“You’re doing well enough, so don’t worry too much, Brother Robenalt.”
“You don’t have to push yourself too hard. armor You just need to do your part, okay? abstract Just your part.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
One just had to be thankful for being born into a blessed environment and live peacefully, just as they were.
Born with Beltus blood, receiving respect and care from everyone, living their entire lives within this glory—there was no need to strive too much or awaken unnecessary ambition. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com
That’s what Denise used to say.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Robenalt, who had partially noticed that disposition, once found strange comfort in her words.
She seemed to have a sharp personality, but deep inside, she was full of laziness.
However, Denise changed.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Late at night, if one walked through the gardens of the Beltus mansion, it was easy to see Denise resting, exhausted after training magic and strengthening her body throughout the night.
She would read books until late, save her mealtime to practice exploration magic, and still keep up with etiquette, manners, and social activities. beacon Without realizing it, she had drifted away from laziness.
“Huff… huff…”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Born in the blessed environment of the Beltus family, she was slowly stepping away from the comfortable life of simply moving according to Grand Duke Beltus’s orders.
She still seemed to think she was just trying to live comfortably, but from Robenalt’s perspective, who watched her closely, that wasn’t entirely true.
Breaking her shell, she had begun to understand the harshness of the world where storms raged.
She had been influenced by someone.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
He only felt curious about what she had seen.
He already knew she was active in the social circles of Ebelstein and had taken on a new mentor.
However, he didn’t know how decisive that had been for her life.
Whish!
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
The white-haired mercenary who had burst into the command room and defeated the servants in moments took advantage of that brief distraction.
With those thoughts, Robenalt blinked for an instant.
Jumping like a bird, he drove his leg into Robenalt’s stomach.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Thud!
Dereck turned his body and kicked Robenalt’s side with his back leg.
The sensation of the boot sinking into his abdomen was vividly burned into his memory.
Robenalt’s eyes widened, and he shut them tightly at the pain that followed.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
This was completely different from the honorable duels held in the Beltus magic training grounds, where both opponents respected each other.
Pain exploded simultaneously in his stomach, side, and chest, which had already been hit by magic. canvas The dizziness was so intense that Robenalt couldn’t help but gag.
Dereck Lydorf Ravenclaw, Baron.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
This place was, without a doubt, the heart of the battlefield.
The attacks he used showed no consideration for noble dignity or etiquette. amateur And that was only natural.
The central garden and the grounds were ablaze, and the buildings were beginning to collapse.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
“…”
This was completely different from the beautiful and luxurious training grounds where Robenalt had practiced all his life.
Dereck brushed the dust off his boots and began checking the scattered documents around the command room.
What etiquette or dignity could exist in such a battle?
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Just as he had effortlessly taken down those servants, Robenalt was merely another easy prey he could crush with a single move.
To him, Robenalt was no longer someone who required caution.

“You came to disable the tower’s protective magic…”
As he watched Dereck search the room, he felt as though an indescribable aura was emanating from the man’s body.
“Ugh… ah…”
However, Robenalt grabbed the edge of the fallen desk and stood up.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Whoosh!
“…”
Finally, a first-level spell, Ice Spear, was conjured.
“I’m sorry, but… that won’t happen… Not while I still have my eyes open…”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
It was so ordinary and insignificant that Dereck thought the magic Diella had first learned was stronger.
Its size wasn’t large, and its magical power was so weak that Dereck could clearly see its trajectory and strength.
Crash!
The ice spears Robenalt launched with clenched teeth flew toward Dereck, but he didn’t even bother to dodge.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
With a single swing of his fist, Dereck shattered Robenalt’s weak magic.
The speed of his casting and the precision of his interception completely surpassed his magical senses.
Whoosh!
What was most terrifying was that Robenalt hadn’t even been able to perceive the shape of the magic arrows Dereck had manifested.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Crash! crystal Bang!
Robenalt squinted and lowered his stance, but Dereck anticipated the movement and kicked his side again.
Dereck jumped down from the desk and charged at Robenalt.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Even so, he clenched his teeth, stood up, and grabbed Dereck’s leg.
Robenalt slammed into the desk beside him.
The grinding of his teeth was audible.
Dereck looked down at him and spoke calmly.

“The protective magic seems to be controlled from the top of the tower. advance There are no objects within the command room containing magical energy…”
“Ugh… grr…”
He wasn’t giving up yet.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Then he pulled out the tower’s control magic stone and began resonating with it.
With only a few exchanges of blows, he had realized it immediately—
When Dereck stepped back to create distance, Robenalt quickly stood and ran toward the broken inner wall.
‘I can’t stop him with my strength alone… I must use every means I have…!’
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
‘If I divert part of the tower’s protection for personal defense… I might match his firepower…’
Gritting his teeth, he ran toward the top of the tower, thinking he had to find some method.
Who could deny it?
That Dereck was not someone he could stop by himself.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Where did that difference come from?
In magical mastery, combat experience, in everything, Dereck stood above Robenalt.
Although they didn’t seem far apart in age, Dereck was already aiming for the level of a 4-star mage.
Dereck was a completely superior being.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
But the enemy he had to face felt like an insurmountable wall.
It needed no explanation—it was a difference of talent.
From Robenalt’s perspective, who had to defend this tower at all costs, the existence of the intruder Dereck was an absolute disaster.
When he thought that, Robenalt clenched his fist. audit It was no longer time to grieve over it.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
But would he surrender? altitude He shook his head.
Most of the trials in Robenalt’s life had been things considered impossible to overcome.

Tap, tap!
Looking down, he saw Dereck leaving the command room and climbing the spiral staircase after him.
Robenalt clenched his teeth and threw down all the cabinets he found in his way along the stairs.
The speed was so great that he would soon catch up.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
A chill ran down Robenalt’s arm.
The cabinets rolled down the luxurious carpet, but all were split in half by Dereck’s magic arrows.
The power was so overwhelming that Robenalt realized the magic he’d seen in the command room had only been a glimpse.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
His legs trembled, and cold sweat ran down his forehead.
Was this what it felt like to be chased by a lion on the plains? athlete It wasn’t hard to imagine being caught and devoured.
For someone as timid, small-spirited, and unskilled as he was, enduring it was a colossal trial.
It felt as if a massive beast was chasing him.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Flames burst from the blade, leaving trails with each swing, and the heat rose.
Robenalt turned and swung his sword toward Dereck, who was climbing the stairs.
He grabbed the ceremonial sword hanging on the wall and imbued it with the transformation magic Attribute Conversion.
Even so, Robenalt had an innate trait—an unusual resistance to fear.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
The tip of Dereck’s sword didn’t even move, but the tip of Robenalt’s flaming sword trembled uncontrollably.
Claaang!
Dereck, who drew his sword at a speed impossible to see, blocked the attack with ease.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.

He probably hadn’t thought much of it. canvas He had always trampled and crushed countless people, bringing about their ruin or death as if it were the most natural thing in the world. voyage The result was now before his eyes.
Robenalt knew it well. palette It was the Beltus family who had first bared their fangs against Baron Dereck.
The Duke of Beltus’s ambition was so excessive that he didn’t want any new power to arise. orbit Thus, at the end of that greed, they had touched someone they should never have touched.
“At least back then… our families had a friendly relationship…”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
The price for that was Dereck’s enmity.
Aware of this, Robenalt spoke firmly, though his fingers trembled.
The judgment of Duke Beltus had been wrong, and Robenalt, who had followed the will of his family like a puppet, had not stopped that decision. abandon He was someone used to moving exactly as he was told.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
“If you don’t kill me… you’ll never move forward…”
He held his breath at those words.
“Do you think I can’t kill you?”
Before the sword—beyond it, the man’s eyes carried genuine killing intent.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Even amidst the overwhelming fear, Robenalt clenched his teeth and swung his sword once more.
If he swung his sword with resolve, Robenalt’s head would surely fall.
He was someone who had been drenched in blood countless times.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Flaming trails tried to engulf the area, but they couldn’t touch Dereck’s body, who stepped back precisely, dodging the blade.
Dereck drew his staff, Footsteps, from his belt. adjust It was a high-grade staff directly granted by the royal family for his merits during the Duplain disaster.
Robenalt, who understood transformation magic well, immediately recognized the extraordinary nature of the magic weapon.
Hwaak! accent Hwaak!
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
From here on, the battle had to be to the death. atom Knowing that, Robenalt gathered magic in his fingers and clenched his teeth.
It seemed like an unbalanced combination, but Dereck was already so accustomed to it. academy He lowered his stance, twisted his body, and evaded all of Robenalt’s attacks.
Soon, a magical aura surrounded the staff. academy Robenalt instinctively understood—if he allowed that magic to strike, he would surely die.
A sword in one hand and a staff in the other.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
With a scream full of determination, he charged at Dereck.

Boom! avalanche Whoosh!
But the scream was only a feint.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Robenalt knew he could never defeat Dereck in a head-on clash of skill. wizard He was fully aware that he was the weaker one.
The weak must fight with the logic of the weak. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com. avalanche Without using every possible means, he could never stop Dereck.
A portion of the magic that should have been used solely to protect the mansion was drawn toward the spiral staircase through the magic stone in Robenalt’s possession.
Clang! audit Clang! meadow Whoosh!
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
If he could redirect the tower’s bombardment toward himself, he might create a situation where both would end up gravely injured.
Despite the burning pain in his body, he swung his sword, hiding the magical disturbance surging at the top of the tower from Dereck’s perception.
Even though his movements seemed clumsy and his magic weak in Dereck’s eyes, as long as he could draw his attention, it was enough.
So, he shouted until his throat tore and charged at Dereck, wrapped in bright flames.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
However, Robenalt fell in less than three seconds.
Clang! acoustic Whoosh!
Thud!
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Dereck blocked a strike, sidestepped, and kicked his solar plexus with his opposite leg.
Panting, he looked up to see Dereck gazing down coldly at him.
When he regained consciousness, he was lying on the staircase, his sword scattered on the ground.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
“…”
Dereck tore the magic stone from Robenalt’s chest and dispelled all the magic gathered within it.
The magic atop the tower began to fade. acoustic Dereck had seen through Robenalt’s final move.
Dereck looked at the fallen Robenalt for a moment, then began climbing the stairs again.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
But Robenalt, trembling and gasping for air, grabbed Dereck’s ankle tightly.
Even with the stone, he still had to reach the top to deactivate the protection spell.
Tap.
He was already too exhausted to stand, and he knew the gap between his skills and Dereck’s was insurmountable.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
But there was firm resolve in Robenalt’s trembling arm.
Dereck looked down at him once more.
It wouldn’t be difficult to shake off that weak hand. airport A single movement of his foot would suffice to make him let go.
Even so, he didn’t release Dereck’s ankle, determined to delay him just a little longer.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
“Is that reason enough to go to such an extreme?”
Dereck stared at him, puzzled.
“Why go this far?”
“I was ordered to hold this spire… and I must fulfill that order…”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
“…”
Robenalt jerked his head up. august Though he seemed young, his determination was that of a seasoned general.
“I must… for my worth to be acknowledged…”
“Duplain, Belmierd, Beltus… they were all names of glorious families, but their systems of succession were completely different, weren’t they?”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
The gap between him and Dereck was as vast as the distance between heaven and earth, and even knowing this, the outcome wouldn’t change.
Robenalt understood this all too well.
“I am nothing compared to Prince Valerian of Duplain or Prince Linus of Belmierd. acid I have no talent, no innate grace, no spirit. echo So to survive, I must follow my family’s will, work to prove my worth, and fulfill my duties to the utmost… Even though I wear fine clothes, I am nothing but a mediocre commoner.”

Grand Duke Beltus was cold and merciless, capable of sacrificing even his own family.
“If you want to pity me, go ahead. august In every great noble house, there are always pathetic people like me… One more person looking at me with compassion won’t change a thing.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
That was the survival method of the young man called Robenalt.
Born as a talentless heir, Robenalt could only crawl and lower his head to survive.
“I’ve heard much about you from Denise. anxiety You were born and raised in the depths of the slums, overcame that environment, and achieved great things. antique Denise, who is indifferent to everything, had never shown respect for anyone. acquire You must have been a truly admirable teacher to my sister…”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
With even more strength, he tightened his grip on Dereck’s ankle.
“But just as people like you exist… people like me exist too. auction Born into a noble family, raised with respect, yet struggling to maintain our position despite achieving nothing… Even if I work hard and push myself, nothing changes… But what can I do?”
“…”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
A glorious birth does not guarantee talent.
A genius who had bloomed from the filth of the slums and a mediocrity born into splendor.
Robenalt and Dereck were complete opposites—not only in magical ability.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Then, flames burst once more from Robenalt’s body.
“What else can I do but fight and struggle? athlete So… as long as I’m here… with my eyes open… you will never… pass…”
Robenalt grabbed his flame-wrapped sword, rolled to his feet, and charged once again up the stairs.
His transformation magic was basic, but his resolve to keep fighting even with a shattered body was admirable.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
With a sword in one hand and a staff in the other, the blade blazed with fire magic, and the staff gleamed with ice magic. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.
He looked more like a beaten wretch than a noble. august Compared to Valerian or Linus, it was hard to believe this man was the heir of that great family.
His platinum hair was in disarray, blood dripped from his mouth, and his swollen face looked pitiful.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
“I’m not that great. ability The rumors exaggerate.”
But even with that pathetic face, he was serious in his own way.
“They say you’re the most famous instructor in Ebelstein. harbor That you can turn any fierce young lady into an elegant one and teach the mysteries of magic even to a mediocre student.”
“We’ll see. armor Fine. beacon I admit it. apron You’re stronger and more talented than I am. aluminum So what?”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Robenalt raised his voice and spoke clearly.
His fingers trembled, but he did not retreat. agent His will to face his fear was admirable.
“I… will fulfill my duty! timber If stopping you… is my duty…! audit Even if my bones are crushed and my body burns…! atomic I’ll stop you…! zenith That’s all…! alien Just that…!”
Being born as Beltus’s heir and fulfilling a noble’s duties—he took that weight more seriously than anyone.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
That was why Dereck looked at him and said,
Robenalt flinched.
Everyone could see that Dereck was overwhelmingly strong. canvas Knowing that, any word he spoke made him tense up.
“Truly, Young Master Robenalt, your determination is outstanding. timber Out of respect for that…”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
Could it be possible that he would turn and leave?
“…”
“…R-respect?”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
A faint hope flickered somewhere in his mind, but—
“……”
“…Without holding back, I’ll also go all out.”
“The respect I can show to Young Master Robenalt, who burns with conviction, is to consider him a worthy opponent.”
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
As he said that, Dereck began to focus all his magical power into his fingers.
The pressure of his magic was palpable.
A whirlwind erupted around him, and the nearby cabinets flew away, falling down the stairwell.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
It was high-level magic that even talented nobles took years to learn.
Whoosh
A 3-star-level magic was coming.
Dereck’s magic swirled through the staircase, and the Footsteps staff began to shine. acoustic If you tried to block or deflect it clumsily, you would die for sure. shadow It was magic that had to be avoided at all costs.
Translation of Noble Lady Reformation Guide - Chapter 132: The Subjugation of Beltus (6) by Indra Translations.
“…”
He wanted to kill the version of himself from fifteen seconds ago.
Robenalt began to regret having said such a pretentious line.
