The Count’s Youngest Son Is A Player - Chapter 149
Chapter 149
Even though he came to his senses, Count Melvin could not easily move his body.
Aside from the exhausted state of his body, the fact that his mana was not moving at all seems to have been a shock to him.
For a knight who had been training for decades to lose mana was the same as losing his life.
However, Count Melvin’s interest was more focused on the situation of the estate than on his own physical condition.
“…So where is Viscount Jayden now?”
“He is staying in the Barony of Garriot with his followers.”
Raoul explained step by step what happened in the estate after the Count fell, and the Count listened to the story with his eyes tightly closed.
“…it’s all my fault.”
In fact, Count Melvin was not a person with great political sense.
With his natural ability and consistent efforts, he achieved great swordsmanship at a young age and gained the support of his family.
In addition, his unique bold and bold personality and the charisma that came with his achievements made people follow him, and he eventually succeeded to the earldom.
The problem was that he did not properly clean up after succeeding to the throne.
Some of his associates suggested that Viscount Jayden should be dealt with in some way, but Count Melvin rejected their suggestions.
The succession was over anyway, and Count Melvin was confident that he could lead the count family well without having to worry about the blood of his brothers.
In fact, Viscount Jayden did something senseless by selling the inherited estate, but other than that, the count’s family went smoothly without any major problems.
Count Melvin’s charisma was enough to suppress dissatisfied lords.
In addition, his choice to focus on the internal affairs of the county and improving its capabilities rather than politics was correct, and he succeeded in nurturing skilled knights and strong soldiers.
The result was that this gate incident was prevented without any significant damage.
‘But it looks like I backed off too much.’
The brighter the sun, the darker the shadow.
I had no idea that when the charismatic count fell, those who had been dissatisfied for so long would react.
And I never would have thought that my eldest brother, Viscount Jayden, was thinking of returning to the estate.
Looking at Raoul and Dylan’s response, it seemed like they had already prepared…
‘They are better than me. Since you’ve grown so well, I don’t want anything more. I guess it’s time for me to retire too. ‘Is this all God’s will?’
As he continued training to become a master, Count Melvin encountered a huge wall that he could not overcome.
That is a limitation of a completely different nature than anything he has faced so far.
Every time I knocked on the wall, I felt like I heard God’s voice saying, ‘You’re there.’
In the end, let alone jumping over the wall, he could no longer even handle mana, so perhaps this was his fate.
‘…But I thought I could definitely get over it!’
He was so angry that a grinding sound came out of the Count’s mouth and there was no blood on the hand that was clutching the blanket.
But what can you do? It has already become like this.
Just when the Count was about to loosen his grip.
“Are you going to give up?”
“…what?”
“Sword Master. Earldom. “I asked if you were going to give it all up!”
“What do you mean, Raoul?”
The Count opened his eyes and looked at Raoul.
Raoul also spoke again without avoiding his eyes.
“If not, don’t look like you’ve given up everything! “That is absolutely not the way my father and the head of the count family would show!”
“…!”
“Did your father collapse? Cowards just used poison in a petty way. The departure of the lords? It was just trash that should have been disposed of anyway. Mana doesn’t move? “Was your father the kind of person who would be nothing but a shell without mana?”
Count Melvin looked at Raoul’s face, which was slightly red with excitement, and raised his hand to cover his own face.
“Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!
I burst out laughing so loudly that the bed shook.
chin.
The Count stroked Raoul’s head with his large, bear-like palm.
“This father has shown himself in a terrible way. “Yes, this is not me, Melvin de Ashton.”
I forgot about it for a while.
He was not a complete being from the beginning.
Constant challenge and effort made him an outstanding swordsman, the head of a count family, and the father of three children.
‘give up…? ‘That’s not even funny.’
That was a word I had never thought of in my 55 years of life.
As Raoul said, the weight of the life he was carrying was not so light that he was shaken by an insignificant operation.
‘I’m done here? Destiny? If this is fate and God’s will, I will destroy everything!’
Count Melvin resolved not to show weakness again in front of his son who trusted his father so much.
Clumping.
“Khehehe!”
Count Melvin, who had been lying down, let out a roar that sounded like a wild beast, and suddenly raised his upper body.
The shrunken muscles swelled and the patient’s gown he was wearing was torn apart.
“Gooooh!”
Deukdeukdeuk!
As the Count stood up and concentrated his strength, a wave of mana vibrated around his body, pushing away objects.
“Oh no! “If you forcefully move mana like that, mana reflux may occur again or the mana load may explode!”
Nakia shouted in horror and tried to stop the Count.
However, her movement to approach the Count was blocked by Raoul.
“why…?”
“Everyone has something more important than life. “My father wants it back now.”
“No, no matter what!”
Raoul immediately opened guild communication.
“Philip, immediately strengthen the security posture on the fifth floor of the mansion. No, the entire main building is designated as a no-entry zone and entry by anyone without permission is completely prohibited.”
“Yes, Master.”
“Until further orders, strictly control the access of anyone except Brother Dylan to the mansion. I take responsibility!”
Meanwhile, the Count’s body was trembling like an aspen tree, and irregular waves of mana were sweeping the room.
“Nakia, please immediately install a barrier blocking this place and the outside world. “Can you do it?”
“…Yes, I will do my best.”
“label! “Would you please stabilize the mana here and cast an auxiliary spell on my father?”
“Leave it to me!”
Ravel flapped his wings and flew over the Count’s head, scattering powder and bestowing the fairy’s blessing.
‘And I…’
When Raoul activated Regnator, golden armor covered his right arm and half of his upper body.
Eventually, an aura of brilliance burst out, shining warm light on the Count’s body.
“hmm. As expected… something is suppressing the count’s mana hole. “There must be a reason why his mana amount and state of body were unbalanced.”
This was the conclusion Cardenas, who appeared when Regnator was activated, carefully observed the count’s condition.
“Is there a way?”
“well. This is not a matter of one’s will or state, but rather an external factor. It seems like someone or something is preventing him from taking the next step.”
Cardenas did not necessarily mention the word “power of being comparable to God.”
“Ugh! “Khaat!”
The count’s condition seemed unusual.
Just like when he collapsed, his body slowly began to swell, bloodshot, and his complexion turned bluish.
“These are early signs of reflux! This is really dangerous. Master, if you want to do something, please hurry!”
Raoul nodded at Nakia’s warning shout and approached the count, enduring the waves of mana violently rushing through his body.
“Father, can you hear me clearly?”
The Count, who groaned at the sound of Raoul’s voice, nodded slightly.
“A problem with my father’s mana. And the wall blocking the front is like a curse. “It’s a petty trick carried out by someone who is jealous of our family.”
Fazizik.
Mana became more agitated due to the Count’s anger. Raoul removed the wave with his hand and spoke again.
“Of course, with my father’s power, I will be able to break such a base curse someday. But the world is not leaving us alone. “The Countess and we need your strength now!”
Raoul opened the guild window.
“So this time, please don’t reject my request and allow me to share God’s blessings with you! Please break down that damn wall and fight with us!”
As if in a fantasy, a letter asking whether to join the guild appeared before the count’s eyes. And at the same time.
Damn it.
The world and time stopped.

A system message window suddenly appeared.
Raoul checked the contents with cold eyes and whispered softly.
“Fuck you.”

“You’re criticizing me.”
If you have something good, give it to me a long time ago.
‘I wasn’t planning on getting it anyway, even if I gave it to the Countess, but now I’m thinking about it again.’
And you won’t die if you don’t receive the quest reward. Quests disappear? Is that really true?
When a scenario disappears, a new scenario appears.
It was impossible to change Raoul’s mind with a warning that barely seemed like a play on words.
‘So, I don’t know who it is, but please don’t pop up this useless warning window and come up with a new scenario.’
Raoul shouted with a grin.
“Get to work, maker!”
Wajangchang.
The world that had stopped shattered like shards of glass, and Raoul was suddenly standing in front of the Count again. and.
[Accept to join]
As the letters floating in the air sparkled and lighted up, the wave of mana that was bursting out of the Count’s body stopped for an instant.
“Everyone get out of the room quickly!”
At Cardenas’ shout, Raoul snatched the label floating above the count’s head and threw himself out of the room (barrier), hugging the waist of Nakia, who was standing in front of the door.
Huiiiing kuwaggwaggwa!!
And as soon as Raoul went outside, a violent wind raged around the Count’s body, and a terrifying storm of mana began to be sucked into his body.
“Ugh! “What is this!”
“Everyone, stay down and get out of the room!”
Philip, who was personally standing guard outside the room, grabbed the two knights and slowly walked away from the room, while Raoul also supported Nakia and increased the distance between them.
Ohhh.
The wind of mana swirled inside the mansion, but fortunately, the general public had been sent out earlier.
“How far has the barrier been completed?”
“We installed one around the room and one around the mansion. “It may be a little unsettling, but it won’t affect anything outside the mansion.”
Nakia, who had widened the distance, placed her magic staff on the floor and was injecting mana into the barrier.
This is because it was not easy to maintain the barrier due to the unexpectedly rough mana waves.
“Leave the barrier surrounding the mansion to me. “I can control it well.”
Ravel also took out a small magic stick and was reinforcing the magic circle carved on the wall.
“Hehehe, I’ve seen the birth of many masters, but this is the first time I’ve seen a reaction like this. “The level that should have been reached a long time ago has already been forcibly blocked… Indeed.”
Cardenas looked at the center of the wave with a happy expression.
They looked forward to seeing how great a monster would be born.
And Raoul was enjoying the wind of Mana with his fists tightly clenched.
A life that was fleetingly guided by the flow of the scenario was not something I wanted to live.
‘Second life. Now I create the scenario myself!’
Raoul’s eyes burned wildly with golden light.
