Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius - Chapter 64

Episode 64

Even in a marriage proposal, there was an order and process.

The final stage of this stage of first getting to know each other, feeling good about each other, and gradually falling for each other is a marriage proposal.

Ah, I can trust everything to this person. When you feel that way, what you do is propose.

No matter how much I entered the novel, marriage in this novel is nothing more than a means of politics for the nobles.

Nevertheless, it is impossible to propose marriage at the first meeting.

‘Ha, this is true.’

But the princess proposed right away without any consideration.

Yes, that can happen.

Since your current situation is urgent, you can simply look at the name Millennium and see that she is a sword user and propose to her.

If I were in the same situation as her, I would have done so without the slightest hesitation.

Because if that’s the only way I have left, I’ll do anything to survive.

‘But you shouldn’t be like this.’

If it was the girl I knew, she should not have proposed here, but should have stood up and made a promise to the next time.

Even though it was difficult, she was someone who understood the situation and knew what to do in her situation.

I was never the type of person to make hasty decisions like I do now.

Although she had limited access to the royal family, that did not mean she had no power.

testimonial.

Instead of the current auditor general, the former auditor general and current king’s butler is looking after her.

Therefore, although she had no power on the outside, she was able to survive among the prominent successors just by being on her side.

And because other royals know this, they are even more wary of her.

Even now, it’s like this with just the king’s butler watching over you, but if more forces are added here.

What happens after that is as obvious as seeing fire.

‘Because the royal heir always changes.’

Although there is currently a crown prince, the title of crown prince can change at any time.

There is no other Konggaru family like this.

The Daria Cerion I knew was like a small sprout that was struggling to survive in an extremely harsh environment.

He endured in order to survive, and eventually abandoned the name of Serion and created his own kingdom.

Although there were no talented people following her within the Serion Kingdom, it was different outside.

Warriors from the empire, from other continents and from the south.

All the talented people who fell in love with her flocked to her, and she was able to create a powerful kingdom recognized on the continent.

Although the total number of members of the kingdom was only tens of thousands, its military power was such that other kingdoms could not tamper with it.

And that was the starting point.

The kingdom where all the talented people gathered was definitely strong, but not for the protagonist.

A feast on a truly delicious table.

The kingdom she founded collapsed in less than two years.

Queen of misfortune.

‘But the talent is clear.’

It is not a talent for force.

But she had the power to attract people.

The power to gather talent and amplify it many times over.

If not now, she will need that power in the future.

But that wasn’t the case now.

If you bring her back now and the protagonist attacks her, it will be a pain in the ass.

Because the ground that was built may collapse.

‘I don’t like doing things twice.’

What made her on my side was when I had enough strength to withstand the gathering of talented people.

And then it won’t be too far away.

1 year.

In one year, you will have the strength to endure even if you cannot defeat the main character.

“Did you say you’re getting married now?”

“yes. “Marriage.”

I asked her again if she might have said something wrong.

She nodded resolutely.

[‘The nameless god’ anxiously watches your answer.]

Marriage.

I woke up and buried my body back on the sofa.

Then, with my legs crossed and my arms crossed, I pondered her words.

‘Let’s get married…’

How could it be that he only said things that were difficult to answer? In a way, this was an ability.

“Are you serious?”

“yes.”

I should have found out during the graduation ceremony.

I should have realized the meaning of the look she gave me back then.

Then something so embarrassing wouldn’t have happened.

So I asked again.

Something different this time.

“Have you not heard the rumor about me?”

My rumor.

You incompetent idiot.

The rumor was so widespread that even those at the academy knew about it.

And there is no way the princess could not have heard that rumor.

Rather, I would have listened in more detail.

What did Raymond do and how crazy he was?

Even though she must have heard the rumors, it would have been difficult for her to say a marriage proposal, no matter how urgent it was.

However, her eyes did not waver at all as she spoke of her marriage proposal.

It was a look that could only come out when he was thinking in advance about what to do if I rejected him.

“I heard. And that a lot has changed recently.”

Oh, is that so?

She says she won’t see me in the past.

The present is more important than the past.

“okay.”

I thought about it for a while.

What should I answer? It’s okay to refuse here, but it’s also true that you need to build a relationship with her.

So, I have to give an appropriate answer.

After all, that’s all there is to it.

“I…”

***

The knight followed the princess as she left the lodgings where Raymond was staying.

As she went to the inn she had set aside, her gaze occasionally glanced back.

“Foot.”

She suddenly bursts into laughter.

“Why are you doing that?”

The driver who was walking next to her looked at her curiously.

“it’s nothing.”

She tried to calm her expression, but it wasn’t easy either.

She was thinking about what Raymond said just now.

-I have no desire to get married yet.

When he said that, her heart sank for a moment.

I said this while throwing away all my pride, but I didn’t expect you to reject it so easily.

But his next words made me relax.

-I just want to become friends with the princess.

Who could tell the royal family to become a friend?

It’s nothing compared to the one who said he wanted to get married, but it’s definitely a surprising situation.

In practical terms, it was as if she had been dumped by Raymond.

Originally, I was supposed to feel bad.

‘Strangely enough, I don’t hate it.’

Rather, I liked his confident attitude.

‘I want more.’

Her desires that were suppressed and oppressed by those around her.

It was a truly burning moment.

***

As I headed towards the crown prince, I felt a strange chill running down my spine.

From the moment I met the princess, I kept feeling strangely cold.

[‘The nameless God’ looks at you pitifully.]

The author, God, has been repeating unknown sounds.

It wasn’t like that for a day or two and I coolly ignored it.

‘Don’t you have a cold?’

What I was worried about now was the safety of my worries.

It’s all about eating well and living well, but I only use it because I’m sick.

“Haa….”

I used Auror.

A warm energy warmed my body, and a pleasant sigh escaped my mouth without my knowledge.

I felt like I could become addicted to this.

After recently awakening to Auror, the frequency of Auror use has increased.

‘It’s quite an all-rounder.’

Improved physical ability and combat power. And even regulating body temperature like now.

Almost anything can be solved using aurors.

Even if they couldn’t do as much detail as magic, aurors were useful in their own way.

“Lowering. Sir Raymond has come to visit.”

Everyone, from the Crown Prince to his close associates, called me Sir Raymond.

They said they would treat me like a knight, not Millennium’s son.

It didn’t really matter whether it was like that or not.

Because there is no disadvantage to either of them.

“Welcome.”

Unlike yesterday when he was dressed in uniform, the crown prince was now wearing comfortable clothes.

It implicitly shows that you will treat yourself comfortably as if you were wearing comfortable clothes.

‘For something like that, the atmosphere around is too scary.’

1When the princess came to visit me, there was only one knight guarding her.

As a royal knight, he clearly had skills.

If you had to guess, he was weaker than the Count’s knight commander, but stronger than the vice-captain.

Sword Expert Intermediate level.

But even though she is an ordinary noblewoman, she is royalty.

Considering that there are hundreds of knights protecting the royal family, her protection is clearly poor.

Like her, there were few knights protecting the crown prince.

In total, about a dozen people.

But the power they all had was incredible.

My whole body feels tingly as it receives the momentum in front of them.

However, it was difficult to operate the Aurors.

A sword will come flying at you, telling you not to act foolishly in front of the crown prince.

‘It’s not that heavy, though.’

Feels like being hit by a cold wind. The momentum the knights gave me was exactly that.

Among them was a top-level sword expert knight, but he was controlling his momentum appropriately, perhaps because of the crown prince’s orders.

Thanks to that, I was able to stay calm without much effort.

However, the crown prince’s eyes seemed to be interested in my appearance, and they twinkled to the point of discomfort.

“Do you know why I called you?”

I guess he’s telling me to come under him.

“I can roughly guess it.”

I shrugged my shoulders.

The knights’ eyes became even harsher, as if they thought my actions were rude.

But somehow I know where I am right now.

If I don’t go too far, they won’t be able to touch me.

“stop.”

Because the crown prince will stop it like now.

“okay. “Then the story will be quick.”

The crown prince showed off a bracelet with a gold dragon decoration.

“How would you like to work for me?”

Then he handed the dragon bracelet to me.

I quietly looked at the dragon bracelet in front of me.

A sign that he is the Crown Prince’s person.

Literally saying this was like saying that I would become his person.

When I looked like I was worried for a moment, the crown prince continued.

“Now that I think about it, I heard that the Millennium Count’s land is very small compared to its prestige.”

“That’s right.”

The knight next to him agrees with his words.

“If you become mine, I will give you twice that much land. And you can avoid taxes for three years.”

Those were truly exceptional conditions.

earth?

It can be taken at any time.

But taxes are different.

Currently, the taxes paid by the Millennium Count family are three times that of other nobles.

Because the amount of money earned is on a different level.

Just one month’s tax can support several small and medium-sized cities for half a year.

And even the taxes were increasing.

However, it is said that the tax will be exempted.

Not just one year, but three years.

That’s enough.

‘The blow would be very severe.’

It was a transaction that the royal family should never have done.

The revenue generated from taxes was enormous.

But do you really want to gain me so much that you would give up all that?

“ha ha ha.”

I burst into small laughter.

I felt the crown prince’s stinging gaze. He looked at me with strange eyes as I suddenly burst into laughter.

I opened my mouth towards him.

My answer was already decided.
