Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius

Episode 94:

People poured out of the castle.

The knights all exuded powerful aura, and the crown prince walked leisurely in front of them.

“Meet the Crown Prince!”

Everyone gathered in front of the royal castle bowed again.

“Hmm…”

The Crown Prince looked around and quickly approached me.

He quickly got up and spoke to the Crown Prince.

“Wow, it is an honor to meet His Majesty the Crown Prince! “I am the son of the Marquis of Conster…!”

The crown prince ignored him and came straight to me.

“Raymond, my dear friend! What are you doing here! “I’m waiting like this.”

“…to?”

He was taken aback by the sight of the crown prince pretending to be happy towards me.

The crown prince smiled brightly as he put his arm around my shoulder.

“But who are you…?”

The crown prince frowned at the guy.

The guy who had been dazed just moments ago hurriedly adjusted his posture and spoke as if shouting.

“I am the Marquis of Conster…!”

“Wait a minute.”

“yes…?”

The crown prince frowned, picking his ears.

“I’m not deaf, so speak softly. And I don’t even wonder who your father is. “If you’re not stupid, you’ll know what I mean.”

“This is Chach Conster.”

“okay. “It’s just right.”

The crown prince nodded with satisfaction.

He then glanced at the place where the nobles were gathered and said.

“Let’s finish the work quickly. Why waste your time on a place like this? And I’ll take this friend with me.”

“insect!”

“ruler. friend? “Let’s go in.”

It’s good that I didn’t waste time, but I felt uncomfortable with his excessive kindness.

In particular, I felt like the gazes around me would bother me a lot later.

“yes. Please come in.”

However, the crown prince’s protection cannot be ignored.

Above all, it was my position that I was called to.

“It’s good.”

Perhaps because I accepted it too easily, the crown prince looked at me blankly for a moment.

It also led me with a bright smile for a moment.

“Where is Raymond’s room?

“You just have to go inside.”

“Oh really?”

“Yes. My Majesty told me to hold him in the closest position. “

“Oh, that’s right. “That’s right.”

The crown prince nodded with satisfaction at the knight’s words.

He lent me the entire small building next to the Crown Prince’s Starlight Palace.

It was a two-story mansion with a small outbuilding and yard.

Considering that the nobles under the marquis only used one room, it was an excessive treatment.

‘Are you mistaken that I am your person?’

Otherwise, there was no reason for him to be this kind to me.

This kind of excessive escort without any conditions is burdensome.

It’s too much of a burden and I’m reluctant.

If I receive something like this from the crown prince, an uncomfortable situation may arise in many ways.

For example, other people may mistakenly think that I am on his side.

“ruler. Well then, since it’s been a long time since we’ve met again, let’s talk a bit. “What is the car that came in this time?”

“The car is done. I drank a lot on the way. “If you have cold water, it would be nice if you could give me that.”

“Did you hear that?”

“Yes. “I’ll bring it to you.”

The butler bows his head and leaves.

The crown prince pressed down on the sofa and settled down at the head table.

He naturally crossed his legs and spoke to me.

“How have you been?”

“Thanks to your concern, I have had a good time.”

“You speak well.” So what do you think of my offer?’

‘You mean the offer?’

‘Okay. Becoming my own person. “Because I’m always open to you.”

“…I remember rejecting you.”

“It doesn’t suit my temperament to give up after being rejected once.”

“And I’ve heard of such performances, but I can’t give up,” he muttered quietly. .

Those greedy eyes gave me goosebumps.

I didn’t want to ostracize him, but I also didn’t want to eat one.

He is typically the type of person whose ambition cannot be matched by ability.

However, there is no need to pretend.

Because everyone could see that his power was enormous right now.

“I like you. It’s an innate talent, and he puts in the effort to hone that talent and even has a confident attitude in front of me, the crown prince. “I really want all of that.”

The crown prince did not say anything.

He bluntly revealed his greed by wanting me.

A stronger greed than when I was at the academy.

I vaguely guessed the reason.

A talented swordsman who killed a troll and subdued an entire graduating class.

What’s more, it turns out that the company behind it is a powerful magic family.

Up until this point, there was enough reason to include me.

‘I had to do it in moderation.’

If that were all the case, the crown prince wouldn’t have done something like this.

Even if he didn’t try to have me, he was powerful now.

It had enough power to suppress other royal families.

That’s why I declined and never contacted them.

”Haa….”

”Why are you sighing? Is there anything uncomfortable? Is the sofa uncomfortable? butler! “You can barely make a sofa like this!”

“No! it’s okay. “It’s just that I’m still tired.”

“Oh, really? “Well, that happened.”

The crown prince nodded with a kind smile.

The reason why the Crown Prince is so kind to me is simple.

I made a mistake in the North.

We fought without stopping for four months.

And these rumors about the raid being caught spread implicitly.

Commoners might not know, but people from noble families who had information would have heard about me in the North.

The crown prince was one of those who heard the rumor.

The prestige I showed in the North was the number one contribution that made me the number one person the Crown Prince needed to recruit.

Even if I wasn’t the crown prince, I was a jackpot lottery ticket for all royals who didn’t scratch.

If anyone brings me to their side, it is a huge opportunity to change the current power structure.

‘This is why I didn’t want to come.’

I’m already afraid of tomorrow because I’m already seeing bad signs like this.

As expected, I should go right away as soon as my birthday is over.

“Oh right. And there is a gathering the day after tomorrow where everyone who attended the party gathers. I would like you to attend that event. What are you going to do? “It’s my request.”

As soon as I could think of that, the crown prince attacked me first.

You must refuse.

I don’t know what kind of bomb the Crown Prince will explode on the spot, but I don’t want to suffer harm by attending.

“I helped you today, so I’m sure you’ll accept that kind of favor. “Why can’t Raymond Millennium do that kind of favor?”

You can’t avoid this.

I had no choice but to nod my head as he seemed like he would turn me into an enemy if I didn’t accept it.

“good. “I’m really looking forward to that day.”

“Sir. “It’s time.”

“Already? “I’m so happy that I don’t even notice the passage of time when I’m with my best friend.”

‘Isn’t that so?’ The Crown Prince smiles at me.

Looking at him like that, I quickly gathered my thoughts about what to do next.

If you can’t avoid it, enjoy it.

If things like this are going to keep happening with him, why not use that time instead?

If you think about it, there were a lot of things you could gain by using him.

No matter what anyone says, he is the second most powerful person after the king.

“I am also happy to be with you, His Majesty the Crown Prince.”

His pupils widen slightly at my smile.

His eyes twitched for a moment, then he held his stomach and started laughing.

”Puhahahaha! Yes, I guess so! Count Millennium did the right thing with his son!”

”….”

”See you tomorrow then. Come on time and make me happy. And their gruff butler also came along. I feel like something interesting is going to happen.”

“I will follow headquarters.”

“Let’s go!”

“Chung!”

The knights followed behind the crown prince.

The door closed and the tension eased.

Before leaving, I picked up the water bottle that the butler had put down and took a gulp.

“Ugh….”

The thrilling sensation of cold water cooled my head.

“Do you want a drink too?”

“I’m fine.”

Mahol, who had been standing behind me the whole time talking with the Crown Prince, shook his head.

His gaze stayed where the butler was.

The butler’s movements made no sound at all.

Although it was not as great as Mahol, each and every movement contained experience and experience.

Movements that cannot be seen if one has not lived as a butler or assassin for a long time.

Mahol wanted to capture it all and make it his own.

‘Anyway, this is the worldview that has been distorted somehow. Most of the butlers are assassins, so can you live with this in peace?’

When the count’s butlers receive butler training, the ability to gather information is given top priority, and the ability to assassinate is given second priority.

And additionally, they learn household chores.

Ellis’s intelligence gathering ability was so outstanding that he ranked first among them, but on the other hand, he was the worst when it came to assassinations.

It can be said that it is not much different from an ordinary person.

But things changed when Mahol came in.

By arranging a meeting between William and Ellis, his ability to gather information has been doubled, and Mahol steps in when there is someone to deal with.

There is no need to doubt his talent and ability as he will later rise to the top position and be called the King of Assassins.

‘Is it time to slowly create a force?’

There is an information network and funds.

Moreover, at this critical time, if something goes wrong with Ahar, his life could be at stake at any moment.

I think what I need is my own power.

There are limits to an individual’s power.

However, when I think about the count family, the Millennium count is too strong.

In the novel, he fought non-stop for dozens of days against a large army of monsters and was eventually killed by Ahar.

That doesn’t happen now.

Even if a monster wave occurred, I was confident in stopping it.

‘Because the dragon is next to me.’

Unless a dragon of the same species appears, monsters do not move carelessly in front of a hatchling.

“Then where did it go?”

“Huh?”

“Nothing.”

I haven’t seen the hatchling since meeting Count Millennium. Is it okay?

no.

Who am I worried about now?

The dragon is said to be the strongest creature on earth.

No matter how young a hatchling is, its strength does not go anywhere.

‘And once you reach your first growth stage…’

you will never go anywhere and die.

You will have enough strength to run away even when dealing with an archmage or a sword master.

The dragon grows a total of three times.

During primary growth, the body changes to be able to accept a vast amount of magical power, and during secondary growth, the mana heart becomes stronger, resulting in enormous magical power.

After secondary growth is completed, they break away from hatchlings and become worms, which in human terms can be considered adolescents.

Although he is a teenager, his power is comparable to that of the Sword Master.

And finally, Ancient.

A saint with tremendous power that can take on dozens of archmages.

However, the second stage of hatchling growth that I can see is the largest.

It takes decades to hundreds of years to go from Worm level to Ancient.

Dragons grow for a period of time that cannot be accommodated by a human lifespan.

‘Oh, I don’t know. I’d be happy if it disappeared completely.’

I don’t want to get along with other dragons.

So, I really wish it would just disappear like this.

“Let’s take a quick rest.”

I got up from the sofa and headed to the room where the bed was.

Knock knock.

I was trying to head towards it.

Someone knocked on the door, carefully opened it and came inside.

“Is Raymond there…?”

Oh really.

Why is my luck like this today?

I think it would be wrong to take a nice rest today.
