Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius - Chapter 136
Episode 136:
The thrilling taste of the hand cleared away ten years of pain.
I felt so refreshed that all the trouble I had been through at the hands of the Third Prince was insignificant.
‘I feel like I’m secretly addicted to this.’
The feeling of eating a lot of sweet potatoes and then drinking cold cider when my throat was almost clogged was exhilarating.
I looked around with the feeling that it would be okay to hear some kind of insult.
The people who came to see Dalian were staring at me blankly.
The count’s people looked like they had no idea that I would be this cruel, and Daria’s face turned pale and she turned her head away from me.
It was too provocative for her.
“….”
I turned my head from her and made eye contact with the Count.
A variety of emotions were mixed in his eyes as he looked at me.
Refreshing, exhilarating, embarrassed, etc…
It was a face that wanted me to beat up the 3rd prince, but not to this extent.
“Prince Hua!”
“Your Highness Baan!”
The knights who belatedly came to their senses came running, groaning.
Their spirit was very ferocious.
They glared at me as if I was going to kill them for turning their master into a dead stone.
“Ugh….”
The 3rd prince, held in the arms of the knights, moaned.
Blood was flowing from his collapsed nose.
“Yes you bastard! How dare you tell the 3rd prince…!”
“This matter will never be taken lightly!”
The knights shouted, showing hostility.
It’s been a while since the 3rd prince said he wouldn’t hold anyone responsible, so I highly doubt it’s a goldfish.
For some reason, it seemed like this.
So he asked Hatchling for a favor and heard the 3rd Prince’s promise in front of the Count.
“The 3rd prince said he would not hold him responsible for this.”
“under! “How can you say something like that after something like this has happened!”
“When did the Third Prince say that? “We haven’t heard anything.”
It was obvious that it would come out like that.
Without proof that the 3rd prince promised, I would be at a disadvantage.
Because a person’s mouth can be blocked with money or power.
“Are you going to cover your eyes and ears in front of me right now?”
The Count was here.
No matter how much the Count turns a blind eye to even the most trivial things, it is different when a cause arises, like now.
The 3rd prince swore on his name in front of everyone.
This must be observed, but a mere knight is trying to violate it.
The count had a justification: to keep the prince’s promise.
“This is not something the Count should do!”
“His Highness Vaan is injured! Do you think His Majesty the Emperor will remain silent about this?”
Despite the count’s restraint, the knights did not retreat.
Rather, I argued with him as if everything had gone well.
“This is something that the 3rd prince, whom you guys cherish, has accepted. “Don’t you know that what you guys are doing now is tarnishing the Third Prince’s name!”
The count bellowed with a roar.
The archmage’s momentum put pressure on them.
“Ugh!”
The knights could not overcome the momentum and fell to their knees.
“What are you doing now!”
“Your Majesty will not tolerate this act of oppressing us!”
The knights shouted, refusing to be defeated even when their faces were pale.
“You idiots.”
The Count’s face was greatly distorted.
Since they could not communicate at all, the Count stopped talking.
They blocked my path and prevented them from approaching me.
“Give it to me.”
-I get it. we are here!
He watched them and quietly extended his hand to the hatchling.
The hatchling passes a small bead onto my hand.
-Just inject mana!
He kindly showed me how to use it and looked at me with very expectant eyes.
“You said earlier that the 3rd Prince never made a promise, right?”
He stepped in front of the Count and approached them.
My actions caused the Count to stop pressuring them.
He must have seen the marble in my hand and made an amused voice, saying ‘Hoo’.
“The proof is here.”
When the aura was put into the bead in front of them, the bead trembled and showed a scene.
-…I will not hold you responsible….
The image of the 3rd prince comes to mind and he begins to say what he promised me.
The knights’ faces crumpled at that scene.
“Give it to me!”
A knight jumped up and charged at me.
[Gravity.]
Before I could react, a magic circle appeared beneath the knight’s feet, forcing him to his knees.
His clothes and hair fell as if someone was pulling them, and he let out a groan of strength.
“I guess I was funny. “I saw him acting like that in my presence.”
It’s burdensome to ignore the count and rush at me.
The knights gritted their teeth and gave up trying to take the bead in my hand and tried to leave with the 3rd prince.
“They don’t know manners. “If you made a mistake, shouldn’t you apologize?”
The knights bit their lips at the count’s shouting.
I bit so hard that my lip burst and blood flowed.
“…We made a mistake.”
The knights bowed their heads slightly, glared at me and the Count, and left the place.
“They’re funny.”
The Count’s mood as he spoke did not seem that bad.
Rather, it was a face that seemed refreshing.
Although he didn’t express it, he was also feeling rotten inside by the 3rd prince’s tyranny.
“Go back. Maybe it’s because it’s been a while since I moved, but I’m hungry. “I’m thinking of going in and having some refreshments. Do you want to eat together?”
“Of course. “I’m hungry too.”
I think whatever I eat now will be very delicious.
***
After the sparring, the count’s house became much quieter.
The tyrannical 3rd prince became very quiet after the sparring.
He used to get angry at even the slightest mistake, but now he was paying attention to what others thought.
“It’s very comfortable because it doesn’t stick to me.”
This made many people feel more comfortable. It was good for Daria that she wasn’t bothered by the 3rd prince, and the maids and butlers were glad that they didn’t have to live with the anxiety of not knowing when the 3rd prince and his group would go on a rampage.
‘But why on earth should I be uncomfortable?’
When going to eat, when going to the bathroom, when eating.
Until I swung my sword in the training hall.
Uncomfortable gaze followed me and tormented me.
“It looks like you are following me, Master…”
“Leave me alone. Because I don’t know. “I know someone.”
“All right.”
The knight commander who was swinging his sword next to me glanced sideways and nodded.
“But are you going to leave it like that? “It doesn’t seem to have any malicious intent, but if it continues, it could become dangerous.”
“I know. But there is no solution.”
“Measures… well, it’s up to the agent to follow the agent.”
The knight commander shook his head, saying that he lives a complicated life.
Who would want to just watch and see what is being done to them?
Of course, I also want to get the 3rd prince to stop following me.
‘But I’m a little too excited to do that.’
It was difficult to argue with him because he almost destroyed people.
Even though there was agreement on both sides, I cannot say that what I did was a good thing.
“I should do it in moderation.”
“what did you say?”
“Nothing.”
I didn’t feel like swinging a sword.
As soon as I tried to swing it, I couldn’t help but feel distracted by the gaze I felt.
‘The bell rang for today’s training.’
It seems difficult to swing the sword any further under these gazes.
‘I need to create a personal space or something.’
I couldn’t go to Count Warrug’s house because I didn’t know what the 3rd prince would do.
Excluding the 3rd prince, something like this could happen again in the future, so I think it would be a good idea to create my own space.
That way, even if something like this happens, you can rest comfortably.
I don’t have my own space now.
Even if you go into the bedroom, it follows you around so there is no place you can escape.
I can’t sleep properly like this and I feel like I’m going to bleed to death.
‘I can’t do this forever.’
This should also last a day or two.
I can’t stay like this forever since I don’t know when he will return.
It would have been better to confront the problem and resolve it, even if it meant a little loss.
“Master….”
“I know, so don’t worry about it and just ignore it.”
As I entered the training hall, the knight commander looked at me with a scary look.
This only happened once or twice, but the 3rd prince chased after him for three days.
The knight commander who was in the training hall with me was also suffering from fatigue.
It didn’t show any hostility, nor did I feel any other negative emotions.
Still, I felt uncomfortable.
A strange obsession made me feel dirty.
“Hehe… you stay here.”
“yes.”
As I lowered my wooden sword and headed towards the direction where my eyes were, the knight commander looked at me with expectant eyes.
It seemed like he was hoping that I would shake off that gaze.
‘He’s trying to run away.’
When I tried to go to where he was, he seemed to be trying to run away.
It felt like they were chasing me and were reluctant to actually meet me.
So I turned around and moved to another place.
“….”
When I went to the place where the weapon was hanging, the 3rd prince, who was trying to run away, stopped and watched me.
He seemed to think I hadn’t found him.
“Hmm….”
I noticed it appropriately. I slowly walked closer, little by little.
Just slow enough not to be noticed.
And when it comes within a certain range.
Kwaaaaang!
I kicked the ground and ran.
“…!”
The 3rd prince was seen to be scared and trying to run away.
But it would be too late to run away now.
He was not wearing armor to support his body, nor was he using aurors.
There is no way an ordinary body could escape within my range.
Unless it’s someone’s help.
Coooooo!
I grabbed him and pushed him against the wall and looked down at him.
“Where are you going?”
“Hee hee hee!”
He sits down on the ground.
I looked down at him and saw that his pants were damp.
I’m tired.
“Are you calming down now?”
“Uh huh.”
The 3rd prince, who had changed into new clothes, was sitting on a chair with his head down, unable to look at me.
The energetic attitude he had when he came here was gone, and in its place was a very withdrawn dog that had been hit by the rain.
He glanced up at me, full of fear.
Sigh. I flinch.
Even if I showed a small action, my body would tremble and I would look at him.
“Why did you do that?”
“What what?”
Still, he didn’t want to give in, so he showed his temper sometimes.
“yes?”
“I’m sorry.”
Even if I frowned even slightly, he flinched and cried.
“Why did you do that?”
“That’s right. What did I do… yo. this.”
He wiggled his hands.
“You weren’t following me.”
“That’s not tailing…!”
“If it’s not tailing, what is it?”
“That’s…”
The 3rd prince turned his head to avoid my eyes.
Maybe it was my imagination, but it seemed like his cheeks were stained red.
“Why are you doing this to me? Don’t avoid it, tell me.”
“That…”
The 3rd prince’s whole body twisted as if he was hesitating to speak.
I stared at him quietly.
At the slightest hint of momentum, his face turned pale and he immediately spat out the words.
“Teach me swordsmanship!”
Yes what?
