Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius Chapter 238

Episode 238

I was filled with only the thought that I was ruined. Suddenly, a thought occurred to me.

There was a time when Liems came to Millennium County with me and was not seen for a while.

At the time, I thought it was something like that, but now that I think about it, that wasn’t the case.

‘Could it be that he was captured by Count Millennium at that time?’

Yes, it is the Millennium Count.

The 9th Circle Grand Wizard of the Central Magic Tower.

A wizard second only to dragons.

He had all kinds of titles and was a great wizard whom the great wizards of the empire were extremely wary of.

There was no way he couldn’t feel the unique mana wave felt by Riems.

“It was fun. “Not only did my son enter the North, but he also brought a hatchling with him.”

When he said that it was possible that he had caught Reid, I was unable to give a definite answer.

I couldn’t think of any excuses…

To be honest, I didn’t do anything major wrong.

Hatchling? It’s just that Reems followed me.

It’s safe to say I didn’t know Riems was next to me.

Or you could ask if there was a problem with me bringing Reems with me.

But there was only one reason why I couldn’t do that now.

‘I don’t know your intention.’

Count Millennium was a calculating man.

Never do anything that will harm you and only do things that will benefit you.

Even if the dragon was a hatchling, each of its by-products could provide tremendous benefits.

The dragon’s scales were stronger than steel and had a higher mana conductivity than any other magic stone.

Also, if you make armor with it, you will gain anti-magic power, which will allow you to block magic of circle 5 or lower with your bare body.

What about the second heart of the dragon, Mana Heart?

If wizards gather together to purify it and swallow it, or if they kill and swallow the dragon on the spot, that alone can take them to the next level.

Of course, the latter method will have a strong repulsive force. It was definitely a good method for those of high status.

When refining, a lot of mana is lost during the refining process.

If you are an archmage, the latter method is better.

Mana Heart itself is an elixir.

To the average person, it may not be much different from poison, but to a great wizard, it can be seen as a mountain ranger accidentally discovering 100-year-old ginseng while climbing a mountain.

If you eat it on the spot…

‘It’s still a monster now, but if that happens… I’d just go around destroying everything.’

Although Count Millennium is an archmage, that makes him even more tempting.

It was difficult to resist the temptation to gain strength because I knew how good it was to be strong.

If there was, it was clear that there was a reason for everything.

Either you think there is no point in eating it, or you can get what you want by not eating it.

“You don’t have to hide yourself either. “It must be quite uncomfortable.”

As soon as Count Millennium finished speaking, Rims released the mana he had been hiding.

I was dumbfounded by the sight of him whimpering like a dog with its tail wagging without even a single thought.

I couldn’t understand why the dragon, even though he was a great wizard, was so embarrassed.

Riems was full of confidence even against the Chiefs.

But what on earth happened with Count Millennium to make it like that?

I’m a little worried.

“Now then, explain. So that I can understand. “Why should I keep that guy alive?”

The corners of his mouth go up considerably when he says that.

A face that really looks forward to seeing how I will respond.

I bite my lip and exhale loudly at his sly attitude.

Organize your thoughts.

What is the best way to do it?

I thought about a lot of things, but none of it made any sense.

‘The only thing left to do is to go out shamelessly. ‘I don’t think anything I say will have any meaning anyway.’

After quickly organizing his thoughts, he looked into Count Millennium’s eyes filled with interest and opened his mouth.

“What do you want?”

“…Are you asking me that now?”

“yes. No matter what I say, if the Count says he doesn’t like it, it’s meaningless. So, count, please tell me what you want.”

In some cases, the word count was emphasized.

Count Millennium touched his chin with his hand in response.

“You mean there’s no denying it.”

“What is there to deny? “It is true that he had a hatchling with him.”

“You could at least tell me the process and the reason.”

“You know everything, right?”

“…That too.”

He didn’t deny it.

He nods, saying it’s not wrong.

I strongly felt that if this was going to happen at least once anyway, it would be better to resolve it here.

“But I’m sure the father wouldn’t want to harm his son. “Isn’t that right?”

“I guess so. “More than anything, there are a lot of benefits that can be gained from that.”

“So what do you want? “I don’t have that much time.”

“does not exist.”

“yes…?”

“No.”

He sips black tea.

I was so embarrassed that I just stared at him blankly, unable to react.

You set the mood just as you wanted, and now it’s gone?

Are you trying to play a prank on me? I wonder what a person who has grown old would want to do with me now.

It was ridiculous and I also wondered if I was bored because I had nothing to do.

“Why are you looking at me like that? I was just asking out of pure curiosity. “I don’t want anything in particular.”

“…Then I will go.”

“Are you upset?”

“Because I have nothing more to say.”

I didn’t play games with people, and I didn’t want to talk to him anymore, so I got up.

He lets out a chuckle.

I became even more angry at that sight. I was saddened that I had been so nervous and anxious for no reason.

“Oh, there is.”

“What is it?”

Maybe it’s because I’ve already been hit once before, but the words didn’t come out well.

Still, he continued as if it didn’t matter.

“I want you to lend me that guy.”

“He?”

“okay. It is extremely rare to have the opportunity to experiment on a living dragon or even a growing hatchling. “It wouldn’t be a bad idea to do it this time.”

“With your bare mouth?”

Riems, who had the anxious eyes of Count Millennium, looks back at me in surprise at my words.

-Raymond, are you selling me now?

I presented a deal to Count Millennium, ignoring the look in his eyes that told me it couldn’t possibly happen.

“What do you want?”

“Wouldn’t it be nice if you could give me this elixir?”

“We could just dissect it here.”

“It’s just a joke, it’s just small artifacts… money is also good. So, you are paying a usage fee.”

“For the usage fee… it’s not bad. Yes, of course. “How much is a good usage fee?”

“It depends on how your father views the value of dragons.”

“You can’t take it lightly. i get it. “I’ll send it to you through the head deacon.”

“yes. All right.”

-Raymond?

Reems looks at me.

Water droplets begin to form in his round eyes.

With a disbelieving look on his face, he mutters that this can’t be happening.

“Speaking of which, let’s rent it today.”

“yes. Then I will go. Have a great time.”

I turn around and leave the office.

Riems, who was hurriedly flying after me, is caught by Count Millennium.

-Raymond! no. Take me away!

His screams echo like echoes.

‘I was worried that my pockets would get lighter, but I’m really glad.’

There is no way Count Millennium will kill Riems, the magic will be achieved, and I will benefit in my own way, so this is good for my sister and good for my brother-in-law.

However, it will be difficult for Reems instead.

But I think this is punishment for Riems.

‘If you had told me first that you had it in the first place, this situation wouldn’t have come to this.’

This happened because you didn’t tell me.

Clearing karma.

He was held accountable for what he did.

The steps I took upon returning home were very light.

“You’re finally here. “I was worried because you said you went down to the South!”

The mercenary king spoke to me when I arrived.

And I immediately burst into laughter as I saw him requesting a sparring match.

***

Time passes.

The South stabilized quickly.

As the barbarians stopped running wild, the elves also began to move in earnest, and Easton strengthened himself by taking out the monsters with the red hawks.

And the by-products of monsters and beasts caught that way were often posted under my name.

Daria, the first princess who ascended to the empire, was treating me better than I expected.

When information came through William, it showed how well she was able to accommodate people.

She moved in the shadows, and the 3rd prince succeeded in pushing out the 2nd prince and the princess using her power.

But the crown prince was not so formidable.

The main body’s military power was strong as a top-level expert, and the power under it could barely compete with all the other princes combined.

Moreover, the crown prince began to be wary of the third prince.

They disapproved of his sudden rise.

Originally, the life of the royal family under the crown prince’s control would have been no different from a life that had already ended.

He was well-known among the people of the empire, and his influence was second only to that of the emperor, so much so that even the prime minister could not treat him carelessly.

Moreover, considering that there was a Sword Master underneath him, it could be seen that the ending was predetermined from the beginning.

‘Mahol is doing well.’

Nevertheless, the reason why the 3rd prince was able to rise under the pressure of the crown prince was Daria, but Mahol played the biggest role.

The 3rd Prince began to move in earnest, and high-ranking figures from the forces hostile to the 3rd Prince began to disappear one by one.

Additionally, due to Mahol’s constant vigil, the chance of success in assassinating the 3rd prince was close to ‘0’.

Recently, Mahol has entered the path of becoming a master and has no rivals in that field.

He gathered strength and gained strength thanks to Mahol, and was able to fight on equal footing with the crown prince.

‘I didn’t know the emperor had such thoughts.’

The crown prince was not the only one who disapproved of the prince who had similar influence to him.

The emperor was also wary of the crown prince, and at that moment, the third prince appeared.

Rather, I didn’t know that it would come back as a poison.

Within a year, the 3rd prince succeeded in pushing out the crown prince with the help of the emperor and various other sources of support, and was eventually able to take his place as crown prince.

Since he had the power and the only power that could respond to him was the emperor, there was nothing they could do about him.

Moreover, the 3rd prince always treated the emperor with courtesy, so even the emperor liked the 3rd prince.

Daria, who occasionally contacted me, said she was very happy now.

I too was on my way to becoming a master, and everyone thought that peace would last for a while.

And that idea was shattered four years after I returned from the South.
