Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius - Chapter 130
Episode 130
The office fell silent for a while.
Dealing with the royal family is very difficult, but what about the royal family?
‘For some reason, I feel like I’m going to be the 3rd Prince’s romantic enemy.’
I sighed as I remembered Daria proposing to me and chasing after me.
It’s scary to even think about becoming a royal enemy.
“Do you really have to send it?”
-There was nothing we could do. I try my best to block it, but his will is amazing.
He gave an excuse that wasn’t an excuse.
No matter what excuse he gave, there was only one conclusion.
In the future, things will become troublesome due to the 3rd prince.
“I understand for now. “I think we should discuss it too.”
The Count concluded the communication on behalf of me, who was in a daze.
“Are you that annoyed?”
“It’s a bit like that. “For some reason, I don’t have a good feeling.”
“Think positively. “It will definitely be a nuisance, but at least there will be no attacks when the Third Prince is around.”
“Hmm…”
That was correct.
No matter how much they want Daria, no matter how outgoing they are, they will not cause trouble even where the emperor’s child is.
Rather, if you leave it alone, it leaves it alone.
‘Because the 3rd prince might take her.’
In that case, it would be better for them as they would not have to waste energy unnecessarily.
What better ending could there be than not having to see unnecessary bloodshed?
The only problem was that that didn’t happen.
“I think we should call Daria and her vassals and have a meeting about this.”
He turns to me and asks if I will attend.
Although I was asking, there was pressure to attend.
“I will attend.”
“good night. “I think you will have to take full responsibility when he comes anyway, so it would be better to prepare a response plan in advance.”
I think so too.
I had a strong feeling that a conflict with the Third Prince would be unavoidable.
“Call the vassals and Lady Daria.”
“yes.”
The Count ordered a general convocation.
“Now that everyone is here, let’s start the meeting.”
The Count, who was sitting at the head table, looked at the gathered retainers and opened his mouth.
“In a week from now, we will be hosting the third prince of the empire. The deadline has not been set yet, but I think it will be within a week. Please give your opinion on what to do.”
The Count’s words echo.
“What did you say just now?”
“Third Prince…?”
“I heard wrong just now, right?”
The vassals looked skeptical at the count’s words.
“Why is he coming?”
Only Daria was shocked and reacted violently.
“The exact reason is not yet known.”
The count did not say in front of his vassals that it was because of Daria.
It was obvious how the vassals would react if they found out it was because of her.
“First, we need to prepare a place for him to stay.”
“We will educate the butlers and maids so that they do not make mistakes.”
“I think we need to control the voices of the people of the territory.”
One by one, the vassals began to express their opinions, and measures to deal with the third prince’s visit were quickly developed.
“We need someone to take charge of the Third Prince during his stay… I’m thinking of letting Raymond take charge of that, but what do you think?”
“That’s a good idea.”
“Considering that the 3rd prince is 16 years old, I think it would be best for a master of similar age to take charge.”
“The Third Prince will also feel comfortable if Master Raymond is by his side.”
The retainers quickly blurted out that it was right.
I clicked my tongue as I looked at them.
What’s the difference between saying it’s all about yourself?
Unfortunately, I couldn’t blame them because I felt the same way.
“Then let’s appoint Raymond as the person in charge, and the rest…”
The meeting ended surprisingly quickly.
There was no need for a meeting in the first place.
All I had to do was simple things like cleaning and preparing accommodation.
The royal family decided to support the rest.
“Then let’s end the meeting. Oh, and Daria, would you please stay for a moment? Raymond, you too.”
“yes.”
“All right.”
The retainers left the conference hall like a low tide, and only Count Daria and I remained in the conference hall.
“I know you probably have a lot of questions, Daria.”
“Why on earth is he coming? No, coming here in the first place is strange. “The royal family has been responsible for the royal family.”
“yes. I know. “I also contacted His Majesty the Crown Prince regarding that.”
She kept her mouth shut when she heard that the crown prince had contacted her.
Her eyes rolled around as she tried to understand the situation.
“You also said that this is a unique case that is happening for the first time. Until now, there has been no reason for the royal family to visit a private territory like this.”
“Yes…”
“You asked why the 3rd prince came to our territory.”
“….”
“I think Daria guesses that too.”
“Ah…”
Her eyes widened at those words.
And soon he became depressed and lowered his head.
“It’s because of me.”
“yes. “The third prince said the reason he came here was to meet Daria.”
“….”
Daria kept her mouth shut and couldn’t say anything.
I had a glimpse of what she was thinking.
‘I’m causing harm again’, ‘Is it okay for me to stay here’, etc… It was clear that I was thinking all kinds of negative thoughts.
Otherwise, there was no reason to make such a sad face.
I wanted to leave it alone, but it was difficult to do so.
She looked very pitiful, but more than anything, the count’s eyes were staring at me.
It was as if she was telling me to do something to comfort her.
“Why are you lowering your head again?”
“yes…?”
“I said it. Daria says there is no reason for you to worry. Daria is a member of our Millennium team. “Isn’t it hard to blame yourself like that every time a problem arises?”
“sorry.”
“There is no need to apologize. “The problem now is what to do with the third prince.”
“You can’t kill him.”
“…I won’t kill you.”
Daria’s smile returned.
***
“So what happened to my request?”
“Oh, that… you can go now.”
“Then I will go.”
“…are you going now?”
The Count looked back at me as if he were a little puzzled.
The Count’s family was very busy right now.
Everyone moved around busily upon hearing that the 3rd prince was staying.
There was more to prepare than for the banquet.
Now that the 3rd prince has arrived, we need to throw a banquet, even if it’s simple, and we need to know in advance what he wants and prepare for it.
In particular, the 3rd prince went there to buy ingredients that he liked.
They were embarrassed that I didn’t even care and left in a situation where they desperately needed at least one person’s help.
“Is there a problem?”
But I wasn’t one to fall for that.
I didn’t want to waste my energy anymore.
What I have to do is deal with the 3rd prince. I don’t want to do anything other than that.
Just thinking about dealing with the 3rd prince made my head hurt.
“…Nothing.”
“Then I will go.”
Since the story is over, there is no reason for me to stay any longer.
“Reina are you following me?”
“yes. “Elise said she’s busy right now.”
“okay. what. “Because it doesn’t really matter.”
We got on the gate together with Raina.
The gate glowed with the wizard’s mana.
“for a moment!”
At that time, the mercenary king rushed over and blocked the gate from moving.
The wizard frowned and looked back at me.
I raised my hand and signaled him to wait a moment, then looked at the Mercenary King who was approaching.
“Are you leaving now?”
“yes.”
“I heard that the third prince will be here soon.”
“…yes.”
“And that you will be responsible for the third prince.”
“….”
Why bother poking the painful spot?
I know it well without having to remind myself of it.
I flinched for a moment, but didn’t try to react and just watched him quietly.
“That means you’ll be back soon.”
“I guess so.”
“So that means I don’t have to leave.”
“I guess so.”
“Something calm?”
“So what is your business? “I’m a little busy.”
“Oh, I just wanted to make a report. “I think I need to go to the north for a while.”
“yes. Bye.”
“Are you coming back?”
“yes.”
“….”
“….”
He closed his mouth, probably at a loss for words at my brief answer.
That also made him laugh for a moment.
“okay. That’s how you become Raymond. “I’ll be back within a week, so don’t worry too much.”
“All right.”
The mercenary king waves his hand.
He gestured to the wizard and the gate began to light up again.
The vision reversed and Reina, who had come down from the gate, stumbled to a corner and began to vomit.
“Uweeeek!”
“It looks like you ate a lot.”
“I’m sorry… Ugh.”
I understand.
If the gate was unfamiliar, it was natural for the body to react in rejection.
Above all, I wasn’t embarrassed because she had been like this before.
‘I didn’t do that though.’
As I was patting her on the back, I saw two men and a woman approaching from afar.
“Oh Raymond. long time no see. How have you been?”
Count Warrug approached, smiling very happily.
“But there… um.”
As he got closer, he found Reina vomiting and stopped.
He scratches his cheek with a troubled expression.
“I guess this is my first time at the gate.”
“That could be true.”
In most cases, after riding it for the first time, it was less so the second time, but for her sake, I hid that fact.
“sorry. It’s okay now. “I will take responsibility for cleaning this up.”
Rayna, who came to her senses belatedly, wiped her mouth with her sleeve and bowed her head to Count Warrug.
He smiled as if it was okay.
“People can do that. And leave that alone. “Because there is someone else who cleans up.”
“no. I am…!”
“You can’t ask a customer to do that. “It’s okay, so don’t worry.”
“thank you.”
He calmed down Raina, who was helpless with regret, and answered instead.
“Miss Selina. how are you. “I was worried that he was sent away like that.”
“yes. “Thanks for your concern, I’m okay.”
She smiled brightly.
Count Warrug came closer to me and slapped me on the back.
“Come on, don’t be like that, let’s move. I think I have a lot to say. “Sit back and eat something.”
“yes.”
“I have a lot of things I want to say to you. “There are a lot of things I want to ask.”
“okay.”
Count Warrug led the way to the drawing room.
“Just leave the food and don’t let them in until you call.”
“yes. “We will strictly crack down on it.”
Perhaps because they knew in advance that we would come, the table was filled with various foods.
I felt like I would be full just by eating one bite of each type.
“ruler. “Let’s talk while eating.”
“I will eat it gratefully.”
“The lady who came with us, please come and eat with us.”
“Oh no. I…”
“Come and eat. Don’t refuse.”
“yes.”
Raina, who was standing behind me, carefully approached and sat down next to me.
When he was somewhat full with food, Count Warrug opened his mouth.
“So you’re going to learn how to use a sword from me?”
“yes. Any help would be greatly appreciated.”
“Why should I do that?”
“yes?”
What does this mean again?
I thought the Count had said something beforehand, but there was something strange about what he said.
