Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius - Chapter 107
Episode 107
I followed them up to the window.
The scene that looked scary to climb up was the wire approaching the princess’s neck.
The wire was sharpened so sharply that the reflection of the moonlight made it look hideous.
‘Even if you run there, you’ll be late.’
I had to use something else to distract him, but fittingly enough, there were plenty of ways to interfere with him around me.
“…!”
The masked person, whose neck was grabbed by my hand, struggled.
It was a little surprising that there was no moaning.
My body was in pain, but it felt like my mouth wasn’t.
Quang!
He threw the masked man and knocked the guy holding the wire away from the princess.
After dealing with the masked person who was charging at me, I ran to the guy holding the wire and attacking the princess.
I dodged the daggers of the masked people coming at me from all directions, got closer to the guy, and aimed the mask at his neck.
Cryrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
since the wire it was carrying got longer and it tried to strangle my neck.
Kaang!
I tried to cut the wire with cotton, but the wire was harder than I thought.
Does not matter.
Even if it wasn’t a sword, there were many ways to deal with it, and I hadn’t used Aurors yet.
“All you need is one guy.”
I raised my name while avoiding the attacks of those running from behind.
Sigh!
Except for the guy holding the wire, all the masked people fell down with blood gushing out.
“Uhm…”
The princess tossed and turned as if she would wake up late due to the commotion.
A wire was shot towards the princess.
The will to kill at least one princess was evident.
“You ignore me too much.”
Did I seem so incompetent that I couldn’t even stop what was happening right in front of me?
I stabbed the mask into the guy’s thigh and reached out to grab the wire that the guy shot out.
A wire was wrapped around the hand covered in Aura.
The sound of steel plates scraping rang out
.
He grabbed the guy’s head with his wire-wrapped hand and pinned it to the ground. As soon as
his
body went limp, a light appeared next to the bed and a man appeared.
“what?”
It was a count with a look of disappointment that things did not turn out as expected after having high expectations.
“Are you here?”
“Yes, but…”
The Count looked around.
Half-decapitated corpses were lying on the ground around the princess’s bed.
“Oh, what is this…”
The princess, who came to her senses late, was startled when she saw me and the count, and then looked at the corpses a second time, making a dazed look on her face.
“Are you awake?”
“Yes… but how did this happen?”
The princess came to her senses faster than expected and tried to understand the situation with a calm face.
Sigh.
The Count snapped his fingers and used light magic.
A round sphere floated in the air and instantly brightened up the entire room.
He bent down and turned the upper body of the masked man he had just knocked out.
I tried to take off the mask, but it couldn’t be taken off because it was made in a way that it was attached to the entire clothes.
“I’m so annoyed I’m dying.”
Knock knock!
The mask was torn off with force.
The faces of the attackers were revealed.
“Uhm…!”
“omg!”
“They are truly crazy.”
The count and the princess frowned, and I cursed in front of the count.
The face of the unmasked attacker was so gruesome.
The entire face was covered with burn marks.
He had no hair and his lips were so chapped that it seemed strange that he could eat rice or water.
Moreover, the hand that fired the wire had no fingers.
The weapon was wrapped and tied around the palm of the hand with all the fingers cut off.
“Are you saying you want to destroy the evidence?”
I picked up the cotton and plucked his lips, but there was nothing I could get from him with that.
The teeth and tongue that were supposed to be in the wide open mouth were gone.
Instead, only empty, empty darkness took its place.
‘Is it an empire?’
Imperial assassination group.
Monsters who have lost their personalities created by drugs and magic doping.
As I looked at the man with a face covered in burns, I suddenly thought of them.
There were few groups that could destroy and use people to this extent.
No matter how great a person is or who has been treated with drugs, if a part of their body, such as a finger, disappears, they cannot function properly.
There are times when they show weaker strength than usual or are weaker than ordinary people.
In particular, it was like a big penalty for an assassin to have to see the world through a very narrow perspective because even his eyes were burned.
In addition, memorization, which requires precision, cannot be handled properly due to lack of fingers.
‘If it weren’t for the Empire, there’s no way they would have created these guys.’
Taking advantage of Ahar’s attack on the Kingdom of Serion, he assassinated high-ranking figures from the kingdoms in the empire.
The appearance description of those in the group that was used at that time was similar to this guy.
I don’t know the name of the organization.
That wasn’t mentioned in the novel, and we only know it as an assassination group created by the empire.
“Are they those guys again?…”
But the Count’s reaction was unexpected.
He clicked his tongue and said that he knew them.
Then he snapped his fingers.
Part of the count’s house was covered with alarms, and soon knights came to the princess’s bedroom.
“Come find even the smallest evidence. And it would be better for the princess to move her bedroom.”
“yes.”
The count skillfully led his knights out as if it were a familiar situation and brought the princess out.
“There will be a meeting tomorrow morning, so don’t miss it and attend on time.”
“All right.”
“Let’s go, princess.”
The count left the place, taking the princess with him.
I came out of the bedroom, scratched my head and walked away.
-Aaaaaan! The humans are gone!
I sighed as the voice hit me directly in my head, not my ears.
***
The next morning.
There is an emergency in the count’s family.
An attacker came to the count’s house, which boasted the best security.
What’s more shocking is that the knights and wizards didn’t notice the attacker as he made his way to the princess’s bedroom.
“Did you hear? “This attack was blocked by Master Raymond.”
“I heard that too! “If it weren’t for you, the princess, the princess would have been in danger!”
Rumors about what happened last night spread beyond the Count’s family and into the city.
The rumor grew in size again and again, and there were many quite embarrassing comments.
For example.
“I heard that Master Raymond was predicting that the raiders would come?”
“He loved the princess and was always hovering next to her! Ouch! “Isn’t it so romantic?”
Things like this.
As I went to attend the vassal meeting to follow the earl’s instructions, I felt burdened by the stares I felt around me.
-Human became popular overnight!
The hatchling must have been surprised that my name was spreading among people, so it hit me on the head with its front paw.
“Are you here?”
When I arrived at the conference hall, I was greeted by the drivers standing guard outside the conference hall.
They looked at me strangely and lowered their heads.
“Master Raymond has arrived.”
It was time for them to open the door to the conference room and step inside.
-I will wait here!
“…?”
The hatchling reacted violently and fell off my head.
Hatchling, curled up on a bench far from the conference room, trembled as she looked at the conference room.
I don’t know why it’s doing that.
‘It was uncomfortable, but it turned out well.’
It must have been difficult to hold a meeting while worrying about hatchlings, but I thought it went well.
When I went inside, all of the count’s retainers were sitting next to a long table.
And in the distance, at the head table, the count was sitting, the princess was sitting on his left, and the seat on his right was empty.
Seeing that there were only a few seats left, the seat next to the Count seemed to be mine.
Ignoring the gazes of his retainers, he walked to the spot and sat down.
“…Let’s start the meeting.”
With the count’s words, the vassals opened their mouths and the conference room instantly became noisy.
“This is clearly disrespectful to the Count family!”
“We must thoroughly reveal the background. How dare you mess with Millennium’s guests!”
“We must gather wizards and clearly show them the power of Millennium.”
The Count held up his hand to calm them as they shouted in unison.
“First, let’s take a look at what we found out from them. “Please tell the knight commander what you have learned.”
“insect!”
At the count’s words, the knight commander stepped forward, took out several items from his chest and placed them on the table.
Badges that looked like they had been ripped from the attackers’ clothes and notes stained with blood.
“These are the things I found from them. First of all, this appears to be the emblem used by their organization.”
The knight commander handed the badge to the count.
The Count looked at the badge and rubbed his chin.
“As expected…”
The Count nodded as if he could guess who was behind it and passed the badge towards me.
‘Uh… is this…?’
After examining the badge handed to me by the count, I cursed under my breath.
A pattern of a red snake wrapped around a black sword.
It was a pattern that was very familiar to me.
It is an emblem representing a secret organization of the empire, and it was a group used by the empire to attack other kingdoms when Ahar attacked the Kingdom of Serion.
‘Why is this here?’
Did the Empire’s secret society come down here because they wanted something good?
And that while ignoring the Millennium Countess.
Even though I was out of my mind, I went out strong.
Although the empire was stronger than the kingdom, there was no significant difference between the power of the Kingdom of Serion and the power of the empire.
In the Serion Kingdom, there were two Sword Masters and one Archmage.
Below them, there were also 8th-circle wizards and 7th-circle wizards.
Even if it is an empire with three sword masters and two archmages.
It was difficult to handle the Kingdom of Serion while watching what other kingdoms thought.
No, even if it wasn’t a kingdom, if Count Millennium came forward, the empire was bound to be in trouble in many ways.
Because he was the magic tower lord of the central magic tower.
It was difficult even for the empire to face the central magic tower, which may have stronger power than the empire’s magic tower.
‘But why did you do this? Are you really taking this risk because of the princess?’
Honestly, I couldn’t believe it.
I didn’t even think that this was done because of a princess who had a small position in the kingdom and didn’t show any special power.
The value of the princess was not that great for the empire to move.
However, it did not appear that they were trying to use him as a hostage.
I saw that they were trying to kill me right away.
‘It’s difficult.’
I don’t know.
The very fact that it moved within the empire was a mystery.
“And you should take a look at this.”
The expression on the knight commander’s face as he handed the note to the count was very dark.
The Count’s face was equally dark as he read the note.
They fell asleep and glanced back at the princess.
I was secretly concerned about their actions and reached out for the note.
“What is it?”
The Count said, taking the note out of my hand and returning it to the Knight Commander.
“Read.”
“…All right.”
The knight commander bit his lip for a moment and then opened his mouth.
“’Princess Daria brings disaster to the Kingdom of Serion.’”
“…!”
“What…!”
The vassals were all shocked by the knight commander’s words.
The princess also looked at the knight commander with wide eyes.
