46 – camp (1)

The emperor said as he put the black-covered book back into his bosom.

“There must be a lot of work to be done.”

As he said, if we move troops to strengthen security at this peaceful time,

There was no choice but to provoke the nobility within the empire and foreign countries.

No matter how powerful the power of the emperor is, it is the instinct of a hunting dog to bite and stare at any weakness.

It is fortunate that we can give an appropriate reason to protect foreigners at exchange meetings.

“I can’t do anything about that part, so I’ll ask Your Majesty.”

“Okay. First of all, I’ll have to discuss it with some trustworthy servants.”

‘Trustworthy servants.’

Five princes were competing for the position of the next emperor, but

It is still Emperor Richard’s world.

It was a phrase suggesting that there are still many loyalists who follow the current emperor.

“The business is over, so let’s go.”

“I’ve held you too long.”

“It’s okay. Thanks to Your Majesty, I’ve learned a lot.”

“It wasn’t a topic that I would feel enlightened about. You might be smarter than rumors.”

It’s an obvious misunderstanding.

Who is spreading malicious rumors?

Originally, isn’t intelligence the easiest stat for wizards to raise, and conversely, the hardest for swordsmen to raise?

‘Isn’t that obvious?’

How could a swordsman wielding only a sword raise his intelligence?

At most, it’s all about raising metallurgy metallurgy according to the orders given by the goddess.

Conversely, wizards have no choice but to read books to become stronger.

Intelligence is originally the more you read books,

The more you think, the more you think about it, the faster you climb.

Even if your intelligence stat is low, you’re not particularly stupid.

‘Still, I must have obtained a useful sword, should this be enough?’

For the next two months,

You have to train hard and dig up your characteristics.

Then, I wonder if the intelligence stat will naturally rise like before.

“see you next time.”

“Go take a look.”

After bowing politely to the Emperor,

He left the imperial palace as it was.

*

Come out the front gate of the imperial palace,

Meanwhile, the reddened sky greeted me.

‘Come to think of it, I couldn’t even eat.’

I’m going to go back to the mansion and have dinner with Katherine.

In terms of time, it’s not yet six o’clock in the evening, so it won’t be too late.

“Leon!”

“…?”

A familiar voice is heard.

A beauty with a red side ponytail approached me as I descended the stairs.

Her hair flows down in a more elegant color than usual, capturing the sunset.

Beneath it, a beautiful smile,

A short woman greeted me warmly.

“……Miya?”

It’s not the sky-blue dress you were wearing in the morning.

Miya was wearing a tight knight’s uniform.

A knight’s uniform that has a different feeling from the academy’s uniform, revealing the body without adding or subtracting.

Let’s step on the stairs without stopping,

Miya walks behind me and talks to me.

“Looks like it’s over now?”

“Uh. It took longer than expected. But, why are you here?”

“Why? Can’t I be here?”

“…that’s not it.”

Why is she here when she should have returned to the mansion or the academy?

I stopped and looked at her and asked.

“Did you wait for me?”

“Oh, no! We ran into each other on the way back!”

Shaking both hands left and right, he desperately denied it.

“Or not. So, why.”

“Just. Bar, let’s eat…”

“Bob.”

It would be fine if I didn’t have dinner with Katherine for a day or so.

There are a lot of noble ladies who will come within an hour when Lady Catherine calls, but that’s not the case with me.

There was no way the women who approached me could surpass Catherine’s stronghold.

But it’s a little bit like having a meal with guys I’m not close with.

So, isn’t it okay to eat with the butlers?

that’s hard

It was a business relationship with the butlers of the mansion.

‘In the first place, they think of me as difficult, but I can’t be friendly with them.’

What kind of butler in the world beat up the knights,

Are you saying he’s beating the nobles?

Because of that, the servants in the mansion treated me kindly.

not friends,

A relationship that they think of as their boss.

So, the only friends I can eat comfortably are Miya and Ugo.

‘His Highness Princess Laura is a senior, and Lady Catherine is my master, so it’s a little bit too much to call her a friend.’

“Okay. I was hungry. What would you like to eat?”

When he readily answered Miya’s suggestion, his face instantly brightened.

she says as her pupils light up.

“Leon, let’s eat meat.”

“Meat? Not bad.”

“There’s a restaurant that specializes in beef nearby. Leon probably knows, right? ‘Sugar Bae’ is a very famous restaurant.”

“Sugar belly? … Ah.”

Are you talking about a meat restaurant famous for the performance of sprinkling sugar on the meat?

When the meat restaurant comes up, Miya jumps around like a puppy.

Seeing you like it,

I feel grumpy for some reason.

“It’s expensive there.”

“Leon, don’t you have a lot of money?”

“Are you an idiot? Where’s the butler’s money?”

“Because I’m not stupid! And you, you’re not an ordinary butler!”

“What are you talking about? All butlers are the same. And if a butler earns, how much will he earn?”

I actually earn a lot.

At my answer, Miya asked with her eyes narrowed as if in doubt.

“……Then do you get it from Catherine every day?”

“Eat it. It sounds a bit like that.”

“You’re getting it, right?”

“If you’re the master, you should buy the servants’ food.”

She makes an absurd expression at my confident remark.

Then he murmurs, “Isn’t the meal prepared by the butler and the maid…?”

“That’s what stereotypes are.”

“Stereotypes?”

“A person like me, who can’t cook or do housework, can become a butler.”

“……Wrong……? Umm……”

Miyaga, who was thinking while talking to herself,

I said while looking at the magic sword tied to my waist.

“Okay. I’ll buy it for you, so let’s go.”

“Is it okay? It’s not a cheap house even for nobles.”

The area around the imperial palace is all gold dust,

If it’s enough to open a meat restaurant on that expensive land… … .

“How long do you have to do that?”

Miya smiles brightly.

“Don’t worry about money, I’ll buy you anything you want to eat.”

Lady Catherine’s family of the Duke of Roelheim, too,

Miya’s Kaizel duke family is a rich family that can’t be touched.

You might think I’m thinking a little trashy,

I’ll be honest.

I think rich and pretty women are really attractive.

“Instead, tell me about that black sword you just got.”

“this?”

She nodded as I slightly raised the magic sword.

“I’m very curious what good treasure you brought.”

His eyes twinkled as if he wanted to ask a lot about my sword.

Seeing the great interest in my weapons,

She is the daughter of Duke Kaisel, the infallible swordsman.

“Yes?”

“…”

Miya looked up at me with pitiful eyes like a kitten.

“……okay.”

I couldn’t bear to look away and allowed it.

“Really? Thanks, Leon!”

“Well, even if you’re like me, I’ll be curious if you get a new sword.”

“Isn’t it? That’s right!”

As if Miya is happy, she hugs my arm and smiles brightly.

Then I felt a tingling sensation in my arm.

Well.

‘It’s not like there’s none at all.’

Tring!

That moment,

A window of a familiar shape appeared before my eyes.

[The ‘Demonic Sword: The Serpent of Jealousy’ speaks to you.]

[Do you want to confirm?]

ㅡAccept/Rejectㅡ

… … what is it all of a sudden

Tring!

[The ‘Demonic Sword: The Serpent of Jealousy’ speaks to you.]

[Do you want to confirm?]

ㅡAccept/Rejectㅡ

what is this… … .

Tring! Tring! Tring! Tring! … …

[The ‘Demonic Sword: The Serpent of Jealousy’ speaks to you.]

[The ‘Demonic Sword: The Serpent of Jealousy’ speaks to you.]

[‘Demonic Sword: Snake of Jealousy’ speaks to you… … .]

[‘Magic Sword: Snake of Jealousy’… … .]

[…] … ]

[Do you want to confirm?]

ㅡ Accept / Reject ㅡ

“…”

The message from the demonic sword fills my field of vision.

In the window that floated almost like papering,

I felt goosebumps all over my body.

‘What on earth do you want to say?’

Following Miya, who led the way,

I secretly put my index finger on the accept button.

ㅡKill it… …

As soon as I saw the first word, I closed the gray window.

‘There are things in this world that you don’t need to know.’

okay. Let’s just ignore it.

i didn’t see anything

-Weiying- … !

As soon as the notification was chewed up, the demonic sword began to tremble.

The magic sword that noticed that I was ignoring myself

It blew out a black aura outward,

Knowing that, I was blocked by the force field of magical power that had been spread out in advance.

As I blocked his energy, the demonic sword panicked and shook his sword body.

Tring!

[‘Demonic Sword: The Serpent of Jealousy’ speaks to you with a desperate heart.]

[Do you want to confirm?]

ㅡ Accept / Reject ㅡ

The snake inside the demonic sword speaks with sincerity.

It’s the first time I’ve ever heard such a bizarre word.

‘Of course, I won’t listen.’

The magic sword vibrates like crazy when I press reject.

People won’t even recognize it anyway because it’s surrounded by magic, so let’s just ignore it.

“Because someday I will receive Your Majesty’s treasure just like you and Dad…”

“Yes, yes.”

Chattering beside me,

I listened to Lady Miya’s words.

*

“shit!”

A desk made of expensive oak wood.

The black-haired young man could not hold back and hit it with a bang.

“Whoa…”

“Let’s calm down…”

“Calm down, calm down.”

A man who orders patience from himself as if he were suggesting himself.

However, the anger that boiled deep in his body was not the kind of anger that could be so easily dissipated.

Quaang!

“f*ck, there’s no way you can calm down!”

The young man hit the table again.

However, no one in this vast palace stopped the man.

no. exactly,

You’re right in saying I couldn’t do it.

“That damn butler…!”

absolute ruler of the empire,

Son of the Emperor, Richard Brune Rothenburg.

He is the Emperor’s fifth son,

This is because it was the owner of the Autumn Palace, Prince Oh, ‘Brent Grand Rodenburg’.

Prince Oh wiped his face as if he couldn’t hold back his anger.

He pointed his finger at the trembling servant in the corner.

“Whoa… there, you.”

“Yes, yes! Boo, did you call, Your Highness, Prince Oh?”

“Go get my champagne. Now.”

“Boo, I’ll follow your orders!”

A servant who went so fast that he couldn’t see his feet.

Seeing you tremble,

It seems that he was crushed by the momentum of the angry Prince Oh.

After accepting the champagne offered by the servant, Prince Oh took a sip of it.

“Big…”

Even if you drink expensive alcohol, you can’t calm down.

I set the glass down until it made a clicking sound and lay down on the soft sofa.

Above the blurry vision, Leon’s figure appeared.

“A child like a dog…”

The man who knocked out one of his few sword masters, Keshan.

A red-haired young man who left an indelible disgrace on himself in front of numerous distinguished guests and emperors.

“Leon…!”

The black-haired young man gritted his teeth as he brooded over his anger.

What should I do?

‘How can I repay this insult I received?’

Prince Oh’s black eyes were stained with life.
