Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius Chapter 123

Episode 123:

Count Millennium was enjoying refreshments with the princess.

Count Warrug did not come to the banquet, saying he had work to do, and Count Skyla was caught up in the by-products of the raid and did not leave the magic tower.

Now that I had completely finished everything I had to do today, I was feeling relaxed for the first time in a while.

“Daria, you seem to have more skill at brewing tea. “I really like the flavor of the tea.”

“It’s an undeserved compliment. “I still have a lot to learn.”

The princess smiled pleasantly at the count’s words.

As if he was used to it, he filled the Count’s empty teacup with tea.

“So are you okay now?”

“yes?”

“I heard about the second prince.”

“Ah…”

The princess’s face darkened.

The Count already knew what he had done and what kind of indecent behavior he had shown.

Her hand trembled slightly as she put the kettle down.

The Count watched that scene quietly.

“Actually, I knew I shouldn’t do that. “I know that you helped me and are still sacrificing for me, but I shouldn’t have done that.”

“….”

“But I was scared. Someone is harmed because of me. I didn’t know that my actions were causing even greater damage. So after the banquet, I was at a loss as to what to do. “I don’t want to go back to that hellish place because I might be kicked out if this becomes known… I’m so selfish, right?”

The count still said nothing as she smiled bitterly.

“And when that situation happened, my head turned white. “It was revealed that I betrayed myself in front of Raymond.”

Recalling yesterday, she played with her teacup.

“My heart sank when I heard that Raymond had stolen Millennium’s name. Oh, it’s over. “He must see me as a traitor… I couldn’t bear to look at him.”

“….”

“Just when I thought it was all over, he said. I am different. “Daria, not Daria Serion, is a person of the millennium.”

“He said that?”

“yes! He told me I didn’t have to bow my head or worry. “I did it behind his back… and he said it was nothing.”

“Hmm…”

The Count tapped the armrest and rubbed his chin with his other hand.

A smile appeared on his lips as his hand passed by.

‘That’s what he said…’ After

staring into space for a moment, he looked back at her and saw that she was looking at him.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“…Are you okay, Count?”

“What do you mean?”

“I gave you the invitation without permission.”

“Hmm…”

In response to that question, the Count lifted his teacup and took a sip.

“Daria, you have already heard my answer.”

“yes?”

Her eyes widened at the count’s words.

The Count has not yet given her any specific answer.

But I already heard the answer.

While she was having a hard time understanding it, the Count chuckled and said,

“Didn’t Raymond say that Daria was a member of the Millennium?”

“Yes… but why is that…?”

“What he does is outrageous, but he is my son. “I don’t have any other children, and he is my only successor.”

“…?”

She tilted her head and her eyes grew bigger.

“That means…”

“The decision of the successor is the decision of the millennium.”

“…!”

She looked at the Count blankly with a surprised face and lowered her head.

I couldn’t hold back the overflowing emotions.

Where can she go and get treated like this?

Until now, she had been ostracized by everyone.

If it weren’t for the thank you note that was the only one on her side, she wouldn’t have survived until now.

That’s why the Count’s words struck her so deeply.

The Count’s face, who had been looking at her quietly sniffling with a soft smile, suddenly hardened.

“This is…”

I felt a strange wave of mana.

It felt similar to when there was confusion about the barrier he had set up in the city.

“Count…?”

Daria looked at him blankly as he suddenly got up.

The count opened his mouth without looking at her.

“Mahol.”

“Did you call me?”

Daria’s shadow flickered, and Mahol, whose body was covered in black, slowly appeared.

“From now on, you must protect Daria as your top priority.”

“yes.”

Mahol bowed his head and returned to the shadows.

“Daria. Please do not leave here until I return.”

“yes? “ Yes

…”

He stamped his foot and a magic circle filled the entire living room.

“You will be safe as long as you stay here.”

She nodded with a slightly frightened look.

A fierce force was surging from the Count’s body as he performed magic in the drawing room.

“If someone approaches you and asks you to open it, don’t open it. Even if I hear the voice of someone I know, even if I hear my own voice.”

“yes.”

“Deacon!”

“Did you call me?”

“Rats came into the house. Please handle it quickly.”

“I follow your orders.”

As the Count waved his hand in the air, the magic circle that filled the living room melted into the wall and disappeared without leaving a trace.

The Count, who quickly glanced around the living room, nodded and opened his mouth.

“Warp.”

Light enveloped him and transported him from the drawing room to the entrance to the forest.

“See you my lord!”

The knights gathered at the entrance to the forest bowed their knees toward the count.

The Count left them behind and approached the opaque curtain covering the forest.

“This is…”

Sparks

rose fiercely from the area where his hand touched.

As if rejecting his touch, the opaque membrane sparked and prevented anyone from approaching.

“A barrier of this level would be at least 7 circles…”

The Count’s expression was not so good as he examined the barrier that covered the entire forest.

After studying for a while, he clicked his tongue.

“It will take some time. “It would be nice if you could hold out until then.”

When the Count motioned to the knights, the knights quickly gathered to his side.

“Stand guard while I resolve the barrier.”

“insect!”

The Count reached out to the barrier and a huge magic circle began to form in his hand.

“From now on, not even a single ant will be allowed in!”

thud!

The knights pounded the ground all at once and surrounded the count.

The weapons they were holding were aimed in all directions and gave off the impression that they were about to swing their swords at any moment.

***

Beatrice was being held by the red masked hand.

“driving me crazy.”

Last time, when they targeted the princess, when they attacked her while she was cleaning, and until now.

They blatantly ignored me and Millennium.

‘No matter how empire it is, it’s the same. ‘Isn’t this too much?’

Even if the empire is strong, it is not enough to take on the entire continent.

No matter how empire it is, it cannot deal with the entire kingdom.

No, dealing with just Serion, who has a central magic tower, is quite a task for them.

The empire would not lose, but that did not mean that good results could be achieved.

When war breaks out, the empire also suffers significant damage.

In extreme cases, it could have been eaten by other kingdoms.

Therefore, from ancient times until now, empires and kingdoms have only kept each other in check and have not hastily interfered with each other.

“Lowering.”

“say.”

“I will draw their attention, so please save the hostages.”

“I get it.”

The Crown Prince nods.

“Miss Selina, please move with me.”

“yes.”

“What… are you whispering like that…?”

The red mask came one step closer.

Beatrice, whose hair was caught in that hand, was dragged helplessly to the ground.

As long as she’s in his hands, it’s going to be difficult for me to deal with him.

At least I feel like I can do anything after saving her.

In that case, we need to somehow get them to let down their guard.

Is there any better way?

“What on earth are you guys doing?”

“….”

“This is the third time, right? “You guys did something like this.”

“….”

The red masked person who had initially shouted that he would kill me looked at me.

“It seems like they’re targeting Princess Daria. Why on earth are you targeting her?”

“…Only ours….”

the bastard began.

The sound of metal scraping hurt my ears.

I glanced to the side and saw the crown prince’s bodyguard quietly moving behind them.

“Why on earth did you want her…!”

“It’s ours!”

As soon as the red masked man suddenly shouted, the black masked men jumped out from behind him and rushed towards him.

“shit. Now!”

“Escort driver!”

I pulled out the cotton and ran. The crown prince’s guard was seen cutting down the masked men.

Ssssssssssssssssssssss!

An arrow flew.

Kakang!

As soon as the arrows were deflected, the masked men swung their weapons from all directions.

Instead of dodging, he moved faster and swung the nameless weapon.

Sigh!

Blood spurted into the air and the head separated from the neck rolled around on the ground.

“Kill the hostage…!”

Seeing me getting closer, the red mask raised a dagger and pointed it at Beatrice.

Then he yelled at me to stop.

That brief action became an opportunity for me.

I focused my aura on my legs and kicked the ground as hard as I could.

Quaaang –

The ground where my feet touched caved in and the objects around me stretched out.

I saw a red mask stabbing a dagger at Beatrice right in front of me.

He swung the cotton ball towards that wrist.

Suddenly,

the hand of the man holding the dagger fell to the ground and blood poured out like a fountain.

I swung the cotton ball again, cut off the hand holding Beatrice, and hit the guy with my shoulder.

Quaaaang!

It flew and hit a tree. He carried Beatrice on his shoulder and returned to where Selina was.

“I would like to ask for Beatrice.”

Selina nods.

She pulled out her sword and swung it at the masked people approaching her.

Unless you are a knight who uses Auras, you are no match for her.

Wow –

I jumped in among the masked people and swung my sword.

Blood soaked my head and made my body sticky.

“Kill… kill!”

The red mask screamed and rushed at me.

The guy who lost his hand swung his legs and showed his intention to kill me by any means necessary.

“Go quietly. “Because it’s noisy.”

Wow!

I slashed at the guy’s chest and swung my elbow to the right.

Kwasik!

I felt the nose of the masked person running at me from behind being crushed.

‘It’s no joke.’

The number of masked people was greater than expected.

Even though I have killed more than a dozen masked people, the masked people appear from nowhere and fill the empty space left by the dead masked people.

“It’s not some kind of human intervention tactic.”

It wasn’t that threatening because no one used Aurors, but I was tired of the endless number of people I dealt with.

It would not be an illusion to feel like you have entered the North.

Hehehe!

It was about time to cut down one of the masked men.

A whistle was heard, and the masked people who were rushing towards him stopped attacking and retreated.

“what?”

I wiped the blood around my eyes with my sleeve and looked at the place where the masked people had retreated.

“That’s amazing.”

The masked people split apart and a man appeared.
