Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius Chapter 6

Episode 6

“Explain in detail.”

My head hurt. As I frown, Ellis slightly lowers her head.

“As always, at the banquet held every year, children from prestigious families made a hunting bet.”

“The Skyla family and the Millennium family were also there.”

“yes. Lady Beatrice and Master also participated despite their young age. At that time, Lady Beatrice was also an apprentice mage of the 1st Circle, and she allowed me to participate, asking me to try it out with the master…”

Perhaps remembering that time, Ellis frowned slightly and continued.

“If only the animals had appeared, there would have been no problem, but a group of orcs suddenly appeared. It was not difficult for Jerion, who was a 4th circle wizard, to deal with the orcs, but it was difficult to fight while protecting the master and Lady Beatrice.”

“Ah… So, you protected me and Beatrice until the end, but then you were attacked by the orcs.”

“Fortunately, the family owners came in time and he did not lose his life, but he is still in a coma. Even though I was depleted of mana, moving my body and fighting against the orcs was a big challenge…”

Ellis trailed off.

This situation itself is absurd.

I let out a short breath and laid down on the bed.

I don’t know how far this incompetent idiot is trying to ruin things and why he can’t even say a single word to Beatrice, who he needs to attract.

If Raymond were really in front of me, I would have kicked him like dust on a rainy day.

“I’m really going crazy.”

I messed up my hair. I feel like the plan I had up to this point is being ruined.

Ellis came over and placed a towel under his head.

Make sure your still wet hair doesn’t wet the blanket.

“Are you interested in Lady Beatrice?”

She asked vaguely.

What does this mean?

Are you interested? Of course I’m interested.

Isn’t he a person who is like a rope that will save his life?

But I’m not interested in the direction Ellis thinks.

“Beatrice is a genius.”

“You are definitely a genius.”

“You have a talent that I don’t have.”

“…”

“I just need that talent, nothing more.”

I answered casually and got up.

Ellis naturally came in front of him and dried his hair.

“You seem afraid.”

“…”

I couldn’t say anything due to Ellis’ words being so sharp.

To be honest, I was afraid.

I’m scared and my fingertips are shaking.

The thought of not wanting to die kept floating through my head.

I had no choice but to become desperate to survive, and I had no choice but to turn my head around somehow.

“Huh…”

I sighed, checked that my hair was dry, and lay back down on the bed.

“I will eat breakfast tomorrow at 10 o’clock. “Please be ready then.”

“You’re eating a little later than usual.”

He was the one who recently had breakfast at 8:30.

Because of the habit of always living regularly to take care of my body when I was an actor.

But I felt like I needed to change the schedule slightly.

“I’ll exercise and eat in the morning.”

“All right. “Then I will prepare a meal at 10 o’clock.”

“thank you.”

Something I said without thinking.

At those words, Ellis’ body trembled and stopped.

She looked at me, wondering if she had misheard.

“I’m going to sleep, so you can leave.”

“Yes, thank you. young master. “Then I’ll see you tomorrow morning.”

As she said that, there was a calm smile on Ellis’s lips as she retreated.

***

Exactly 7 o’clock.

It was time for me to open my eyes.

Although it cannot be said to be early in the morning in terms of time, it was right before the actual activities began for those in the count family.

Count Millennium always wakes up at 9 o’clock and everyone tends to follow that schedule.

The real morning probably starts at 8 o’clock.

“Hwaam.”

I yawned and changed my clothes.

Perhaps because it was too early, my eyes stung slightly.

I want to lie down right now.

But somehow I overcame it, put on my workout clothes, and went outside.

Startle.

Oh, I’m surprised.

Ellis was waiting by the door.

I’m really diligent. I’m really diligent. No, but why on earth were you already waiting?

“Ellis?”

“Yes, master. “You woke up early.”

“I woke up earlier than usual, what happened?”

“I was preparing because I thought you would wake up at this time.”

I was a little embarrassed by her words.

Are you saying it was just a feeling?

I looked at her for a moment and nodded once.

There is no reason for me to comment on her work.

“Let’s go to the training ground.”

“Yes, around 9 o’clock, the drivers will use the 1st and 2nd training grounds, so I think you can go to the 3rd training ground.”

Ellis answered, lowering his head.

I tried to go anywhere. When she said I had to go to the 3rd training center, I followed her.

When I arrived at the training center, I started jogging.

Raymond Millennium.

This guy didn’t look that fat at first glance, but his entire body was filled with fat rather than muscle.

It feels like a typical skinny pig.

First, I had to burn the fat in my body and build muscle.

“Huh. hook.”

After a while, my breathing started to become heavy.

This is proof of how trash Raymond’s body is.

I gritted my teeth and ran.

In order not to think that it was difficult, I deliberately thought differently.

‘I may not be able to attract Beatrice.’

From what I heard, it turns out that Beatrice didn’t just dislike Raymond because he was a fool and incompetent.

It was not a problem that could be easily solved since it was the cause of her brother’s coma.

In the worst case, you may have to give up on attracting Beatrice.

‘I just can’t attract her to my side…’

The more she grew, the better.

Because Beatrice is not my enemy.

“Whoa… whoosh.”

I took a deep breath and wiped the sweat that was pouring down like rain.

It didn’t stop. I plan to run until my limbs can no longer move.

‘Beatrice will ultimately be helpful when the protagonist tries to destroy the kingdom later.’

Beatrice will ultimately be helpful in the grand scheme of things.

But what I need is someone who can protect me.

It may be an apology, but… the protagonist is a being with strong talent who does not covet Raymond’s talent.

So, even if I encounter the main character, I am someone who can be sacrificed on my behalf.

I need someone like that.

‘Among those who oppose the protagonist in the kingdom, there are

only two people who are talented…’ There are about two people described in the novel.

Beatrice and Selina.

‘Should I aim for Selina?’

Selina Warrug.

If he ultimately failed to attract Beatrice, he had to get her on his side.

It won’t be that easy.

I still had the opportunity to meet Beatrice often as a member of the Magic Tower, but Selina was completely different.

There was almost no contact between him and Selina, the daughter of the kingdom’s swordsman, Count Warrug.

We will only meet a few times a year, and we will only meet and say hello once.

“It’s not easy for either of them.”

I slowed down and muttered.

difficult.

It was inevitable that it would be difficult because Beatrice’s plan was broken.

Sweat poured down my face and I felt like I was going to stop breathing.

Ellis, who had been watching me from afar, approached me.

“You were overexerting yourself.”

She said with a worried look on her face and held out a glass.

It was water with a slight red tint.

“I bought capiacci tea because I thought it would be helpful if I drink it after exercising.”

“thank you.”

I don’t know what capiacci tea is, but I was thirsty, so I took it and drank it down.

While drinking it, Ellis wiped away the sweat.

“The head of the house asked us to eat together… Shall we get ready at 10 o’clock as originally planned? Or…”

“No, that’s enough. “I’ll eat with my father.”

Father.

I was just at the moment when I thought it was time to meet Count Millennium.

“Yes, I understand.”

Ellis answered right away.

***

After I finished exercising, I washed my body.

Count Millennium was Raymond’s father, but that did not mean he was someone one could approach lightly.

Even when eating with your father, you must be polite.

I got dressed and walked briskly.

The door opened and the dining room came into view.

The Count and Countess Millennium came first.

As soon as I entered, I bowed my head slightly and said hello.

“sorry. “It’s late.”

“…”

Count Millennium’s eyebrows twitched.

With a strange expression on his face, he quickly gestured.

“Sit down.”

“yes.”

I answered briefly and immediately found a seat and sat down.

With that, the food began to be set.

Count Millennium looked at it with indifferent eyes, and the Countess spoke first.

“It looks like you woke up early this morning. Are you unable to sleep?”

“I just woke up early to exercise. Thank you for your concern. countess.”

I smiled slightly.

This is one of the things I’ve been thinking hard about over the past few days.

How do you address Countess Millennium?

The current Countess Millennium is not Raymond’s biological mother.

It’s okay to call her mother, but she’s not a stranger, so you can’t just call her by her name.

So what I chose was the title Countess.

“Something… has changed a lot.”

Countess Millennium looked at me with strange eyes.

Raymond was not his usual self, and it was natural for her to sense the change.

“You stopped being a bitch.”

Count Millennium blurts out a word.

I turned my head and looked at him.

Stop acting like a fool. I tried to laugh at the fact that this was just the beginning and that I had stopped, but I tried to keep my voice even.

“I didn’t stop being a bitch.”

“then?”

“I’m trying to become a conscious idiot.”

“It’s paradoxical.”

Count Millennium shook his head as if it was absurd.

His sharp eyes scanned my entire body.

“Was it your intention to be a sensible asshole when you knocked down the family’s two apprentice wizards?”

“yes. Those who were learning magic with the support of my family clearly ignored me. “We needed to be clear up and down.”

“Huh…”

Count Millennium couldn’t come to his senses as he saw his son had clearly changed.

In the end, he changed the subject without saying anything.

I paid no attention to that and turned my attention to the food.

Perhaps because he was a count, the contents of the table were extravagant.

While I was wondering what to eat first, I heard Count Millennium’s voice.

“I won’t be forcing you to attend the banquet this year either. However, I would like you to deliver an invitation to the Warrug family. “As a member of the family, I have to do my job.”

At those words, a bell rang in my head. I was looking for a way, and an opportunity like this came along.

“What now…?”

“If you don’t even bother to deliver an invitation to the Warrug family…”

Count Millennium frowned and spoke.

When I heard the words “Count Warrug” again, I quickly lowered my head.

It was to hide a wide smile.

“I will go.”

“what?”

“Delivering an invitation to the Warrug family. I will do it. And…I will also attend the banquet.”

Even if a person is completely fucked, there seems to be at least one way to survive.
