Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius

Episode 118

There was silence.

I could feel the whispers of the onlookers and the princess’s gaze behind my back.

“You’re crazy!”

Breaking the silence, the second prince glared at me.

He had a very angry face and looked as if he would pull out his sword at any moment.

“There is a degree to which I am ignoring Lucius Serion. “You’ve gone beyond that!”

The second prince stepped forward, pushing the nobles in front of him.

“I don’t know if it’s Princess Daria, but Daria is different? “Did you think I would fall for that kind of pun?”

I step on the acceleration hard.

To be honest, there was no reason for him to react this way.

What I said may vary depending on how you hear it, but ultimately it meant that I acknowledged the invitation given to him.

With that in mind, it would be nice to go back to the room we were assigned to.

“How dare you insult the royal family! Are you ready to pay for your sins?”

I don’t know what word hit him, but I knew his eyes were wide open.

‘Actually, the person in question says nothing is wrong, but he’s a funny guy.’

The 2nd prince took off the white gloves he was wearing on his hands.

I frowned at that action.

I had an idea what he was trying to do.

There was one case where he shouted that he would pay for his crime and then took off his gloves.

Huh.

The glove flew into my chest, hit me, and fell helplessly to the ground.

“I challenge you to a duel!”

A silence with a different meaning has arrived. People looked at the second prince as if he were crazy.

In many ways, it was impossible for the Millennium domain to challenge me, the heir, to a duel.

He wouldn’t know if I had touched him like he said.

Even in the eyes of others, I didn’t do anything wrong.

Although his attitude was arrogant, it actually helped him.

If I had said I couldn’t accept the invitation, he would have been kicked out in shame.

But it’s like asking for a duel without even knowing that.

“You won’t regret it, right?”

“regret? There is no regret in my dictionary! “I will rip that pathetic mouth of yours out!”

I have endured enough.

I don’t know if you’ve heard the rumors about me or not, but I’ve tolerated this pretty well.

“That duel….”

“What’s all this fuss about?”

Before I could finish speaking, a man came between me and the 2nd Prince.

“Meet Your Majesty the Crown Prince!”

The people around them hastily lowered their heads.

“I tried to meet you pleasantly…”

The crown prince’s voice came from behind me.

In front of me, the black bodyguard I saw before was standing holding the second prince’s gloves.

“Lucius. “What kind of obscenity is this?”

“Brother tongue! This…!”

“older brother? Are you calling me older brother? “I must have looked easy because I was quiet.”

“I’m sorry. “Your Majesty the Crown Prince!”

The second prince quickly lowered his head.

The crown prince looked down at him coldly and then turned his head to me.

“I heard what was going on on the way. “I apologize for my younger brother’s rudeness.”

As the crown prince lowered his head, the people around him were shocked.

It was not easy to see a member of the royal family bowing their head to someone.

“If His Majesty the Crown Prince says so…”

It was too vague to say that I couldn’t do that here.

As the crown prince, he personally bowed his head, and if I got angry about it, I would end up ignoring him.

The problem is the second prince.

Considering the way he looks, I should be more worried about him than I am.

Even if I say it’s okay, if he says no, there’s nothing I can do.

‘I wish you would be more aggressive.’

I think it would be frustrating in many ways to end it here.

It would be nice if you came at me like you always do.

“….”

The second prince was hesitant, contrary to what he had expected.

He even ground his teeth while looking at him from a place where the crown prince’s eyes could not reach.

The Crown Prince looked at all that and sighed.

“You too, hurry up and apologize to Raymond.”

“How can a royal apologize!”

“royalty? So does that mean I, with my head bowed, am not royalty?”

“That’s not true, but…”

The second prince bit his lip as if his pride was hurt.

The crown prince looked at him pitifully and clicked his tongue.

“You take care of your pride even when it’s not necessary. Tsk.”

“….”

The second prince’s face turned red.

“And Raymond is a close friend of mine. “If you ignore him, you’re ignoring me… I guess I’m being funny.”

“Oh no!”

The second prince shook his head violently.

Looking at that scene, I felt a strange feeling.

The man who used behind-the-scenes tricks to take over the kingdom and had a certain amount of power, ignoring even members of the royal family, is now pinned down by the crown prince.

In addition, I couldn’t even speak properly and was too busy looking at people.

‘Is the crown prince that capable?’

It was a difficult reaction to come up unless the royal family was properly controlled.

“I’m sorry.”

I looked at him gritting his teeth.

His face was red as if it would explode at any moment, and his pride was very hurt.

He was angry that he even apologized to me.

“I just need to know. I hope this never happens again.”

“….”

The second prince did not answer.

He glanced at the crown prince and left the place as if running away with the nobles who came with him.

“Then I’ll go too. “It looks like there’s a lot of work to do.”

“yes. Of course. see you tommorow.”

The crown prince patted my shoulder and left.

“We’re gathered here for something to see!”

At the same time, he did not forget to send the onlookers away.

“…I guess I should at least spar with the mercenary king.”

I think I have to sweat at least to get rid of this uncomfortable feeling.

***

A third of the nobles who had gathered for the banquet were kicked out.

Most of them came in with friends or with imitation invitations.

“To the guards who checked…”

The knights who were in charge of checking the invitation and letting people in were disciplined.

It wasn’t a major punishment, but it was enough to alert them.

In addition, he held the nobles who had deceived the knights guilty and received compensation.

Fearing being picked on by Millennium, they obediently offered compensation and blamed the Second Prince for making this happen.

If he hadn’t caused trouble, they wouldn’t have done that.

“That’s over there…!”

“Everyone move quickly!”

Unlike the big events that occurred, the banquet was carried out steadily.

I couldn’t stop the banquet with such a problem.

“long time no see! “My powers have become clearer to me while I haven’t seen you!”

“Then you heard the whole story. “I discovered an iron mine this time.”

A banquet was held and in an instant, the nobles gathered and chatted.

“It’s him, right?”

“uh. I saw it yesterday and it was pretty cool. “You were proud even in front of the prince.”

“Is that all it is? “His Majesty the Crown Prince even said that you were his close friend.”

I could hear people whispering.

It was not difficult to see that the topic of their conversation was me.

I was the only person related to the 2nd prince and the crown prince.

“My friend has become a celebrity.”

“It’s all thanks to someone.”

The crown prince chattered next to me.

Everyone glanced in this direction, wanting to talk to the Crown Prince.

Having the Crown Prince by your side is helpful in times like this.

Because other people don’t come and bother you.

“But I can’t see Daria. “It seemed like we were together yesterday.”

“Oh, he said he wasn’t feeling well and would stay in his room.”

“okay? “Well, I’ve been weak since a long time ago.”

He nodded as if he understood and put some champagne in his mouth.

“But I had high expectations because it was the Millennium Banquet… but it wasn’t as special as I expected.”

“What’s different about a banquet? “It’s all the same.”

Unlike in the royal castle, the crown prince had a very bored expression on his face.

In the royal castle, he wore a smile designed to deal with nobles, but he seemed to have no intention of doing so now.

Rather, if nobles tried to approach, he would use his frown to block them in advance.

He clearly showed that he wasn’t interested in anyone but me.

While I was chatting with him about something meaningless, the door to the banquet hall opened and two women came inside.

“Wow…”

“Look over there. I’m serious.”

It was Selina and Beatrice.

For some reason, the two were getting along well.

They looked around and whispered among themselves.

“…!”

“….”

Selina made eye contact. Her eyes widened and she tapped Beatrice on the shoulder and pointed at me.

They came this way. The Crown Prince, who had been quietly looking at them until then, tapped my shoulder with a surprised look on his face.

“You’re coming this way now, right?”

“I think so.”

“It doesn’t seem like it’s coming to me… I heard there was a man with two flowers recently. “Was that you?”

The crown prince looked at me with interested eyes.

“Raymond, it’s been a while.”

“Raymond. “You are here.”

As the girls were rushing to talk to me, I nodded and pointed to the crown prince next to me.

“Ah, meet Your Majesty the Crown Prince.”

“Oh yeah. “This is Beatrice’s first meeting with me, right?”

“yes. That’s right. “It is an honor to meet you.”

“It’s been a while, Selina.”

“yes. Lowering.”

He looked back and forth between me and the girls and smiled strangely.

“A neutral magic family and a swordsmanship expert…”

He smiled with interest and stood up from the table he was leaning on.

“It looks like you have a lot to say, but I think I’m getting in the way. “I’ll make room for you.”

He put down the empty glass, picked up the glass filled with wine, and left.

Then he inked at me.

‘What a trick.’

I frowned at him and he nodded in understanding.

“What are you talking about there?”

“Wow, Your Majesty the Crown Prince!”

As I was quietly watching him burrow into the gap between the nobles nearby, Beatrice spoke to me from behind.

“It seems like you are very close with His Majesty the Crown Prince.”

“Uh… somehow we became friends.”

“They seemed very friendly, which was great.”

“What can I do with something like this…”

I nodded and turned my head to see Selina drinking champagne.

“Welcome Miss Selina. “I was sorry at that time.”

“no. thanked. “Thanks to you, I learned a lot.”

“Thank you for thinking that way.”

As I was chatting with Selina, Beatrice came between her and me, saying that the two seemed close.

“I was grateful at that time. “Thanks to you, I was able to survive.”

“No, even if you don’t…”

“Ah, I said you two went from the north. I heard the story about that time. I was worried about Raymond after hearing that story. “Are you feeling okay?”

“I’m fine….”

“It was really great back then. Seeing them throw their bodies to protect me…”

“Miss Beatrice then…”

“I…”

With me behind them, sparks began to fly among them.

‘Why are they suddenly fighting among themselves?’

Just when I was wondering if I should just watch this quietly, I saw a commotion happening in the distance.
