Episode 3
Imperial swordsman and 3rd generation family.
Eileen Lindell, the princess of the Lindell family, was engrossed in sword training at the family’s training ground today.
The thick aura surrounding the sword proved that her accomplishments were by no means shallow.
How many repetitions did that have to do?
“Eileen.”
“Oh father.”
At the duke’s voice, she let go of the sword she was holding.
The duke glanced around and said to her.
“Has there been any response from Mikhail Walpurgis since that day?”
“No. There’s no way that idiot would have noticed in the first place.”
At those words, the duke nodded with a dark expression.
“I think so too. One thing you never know.”
“But right away, when Mikhail came to visit two days ago, there was no sign of that at all.”
Mikhail Walpurgis was really not to her taste in many ways. He was indecisive, weak, and had no confidence in himself.
It’s not the right match for her.
“Your father didn’t even seriously consider him as my opponent in the first place, did he?”
“It was so. However, if the Marquis of Walpurgis knew that fact, it would be difficult in many ways, so that’s just how it was.”
The duke was sure.
No matter how much the Marquis of Walpurgis is known as a master of magic, it is impossible to figure out the magic tools installed on her daughter.
But why?
Strangely, I didn’t feel good.
“Besides, the Count Paslov family proposed an engagement to our family a few days ago.”
“It did.”
“If I had to look at the possibility, I think Lian Paslov, who is famous as the next generation swordsman, would be a wiser choice.”
Ryan Parslov.
The only heir to the Paslov family and a sword genius called the next generation swordsman.
In many ways, he was many times a better opponent than Mikhail Walpurgis.
“Yes, an envoy from Count Paslov’s family was supposed to come today. Among them will be Ryan Paslov.”
“Good for you.”
Eileen’s eyes lit up.
Isn’t it an opportunity to see the rumored next-generation swordsman in person?
At that time, when the duke saw the sword that his daughter was holding, a different color flowed into the eyes of the duke. He looked at his daughter with admirable eyes.
“Could it be that you’ve already been able to contain your aura?”
“Yes, I just realized it, but I’m sure.”
Saying so, she wrapped the aura around her sword.
“Huh sure…The
duke had no intention of using Eileen simply as a tool for an arranged marriage. What was the reason to use a daughter with such genius talent so vainly?
But that was then.
“dismissal.”
A knight hurriedly came to the Duke and bowed.
“Oh, is it already from Count Paslov’s family?”
“That’s not it.”
The Duke frowned.
If not Count Parslov, what the hell is it?
“This is Bar Walpurgis.”
“…hmm?”
“I came from the Walpurgis family.”
“…?!”
Both eyes widened at the same time.
* * *
“Wow, you really came.”
The butler looked at the front door of the duke’s house with an expression of despair.
The Duke’s family really had something that made them feel overwhelmed just by looking at it.
“…Are you really okay, Bocchan?”
“Oh it’s okay. butler. Spread your shoulders proudly. Don’t be afraid.”
Of course, despite my words, the butler still didn’t look relieved.
“No, to go straight to the duke’s house right after that happened…“
I have to go straight.”
In the meantime, it would be a problem if the duchy did useless work.
And most importantly….
‘Today Count Paslov’s family is visiting the duke’s family.’
Count Parslov.
The family to which Lian Paslov, who is in the limelight as the next generation swordsman, belongs, and a prominent family that will later rise to the ranks of dukes.
…Whatever.
Among them, Lian is one of the ties with me based on before returning. It was also someone I had to meet as soon as possible.
Isn’t it that the two families who happened to have a business are gathering in one place on their own.
Of course, this had to be done quickly.
“By the way, what are you planning to do when you meet the young lady? It won’t be easy unless you have solid evidence.”
the butler continued.
“Honestly, it’s true that the young master held onto the hem of the princess’s skirt and cried and cried, and it’s a bit…Isn’t it an obvious fact that you were very obsessed with it? There’s no way there’s a card enough to turn that over…“
There is, butler.”
Trust me.
Where did you live deceived?
“It’s a problem because I was deceived.”
“….”
It seems that it was.
It’s been a while, so I can’t remember anything like this.
“are you okay. It’s for real this time.”
“…But again, don’t work too hard. I wonder if I’m going to get into the game with great energy and find a weakness.”
“Don’t you worry? In the first place, I had no idea what to do with the duke’s door. I’ll take it, but I’ll take it.”
I have no intention of destroying Eileen or anything like that. A lot of things happened before returning.
…okay.
There were so many things that even the resentment and hatred towards her disappeared.
“please…The
butler nodded at my words with a relieved expression.
And around that time, the door of the Duke’s house, which had been firmly closed, opened.
“Princess Mikhail.”
The knight looked at me with a blunt expression and said.
“Did you tell me?”
“Yes, but His Excellency the Duke said he could not answer because he had a schedule today.”
“Oh yeah?”
what would it be I didn’t even panic because it was already expected.
“I’m really sorry, but I hope you will make a promise to the next opportunity.”
“So what?”
I turned my back without regret.
What if you are not the owner? It’s not an engagement relationship anymore, and I can’t force myself on my side.
“Do young master? Are you really just going? I heard you have a card or something?!”
“Butler, just follow me.”
After saying that, I sat down under the tree in front of the main gate of the duchy.
The knight who spoke to me asked with a frown on his face.
“What are you doing?”
“What are you doing? resting place. Do you know how far it is from my family to here? No matter how much space movement magic you have, you get tired.”
“Uh um….”
“Can’t we take a break for a while? It’s not like I’m going to stay up all night here.”
At my words, the knight rolled his eyes with a complicated expression.
Just looking at it, I could see all kinds of calculations going on in my head.
what is not natural Why is it natural?
‘I’ll be arriving soon from Count Paslov’s family.’
It should arrive within today at the latest.
‘The important thing is that Ryan Paslov knows nothing.’
Next-generation swordsman.
A man who honestly sold only swords regardless of his family’s politics.
That’s Rihanna Parslov.
Of course, he is not particularly interested in what happened to the family he is going to meet and what the situation is.
only one.
‘I mean, he really hates things that go against common morals.’
Simply put, it is a righteous character.
Of course, asking a guy to break up the marriage unilaterally is never acceptable.
Maybe I’m making a fuss?
If so, the Duke would know very well that nothing good would ever happen.
After a while, as if he had heard a report, the driver approached me and put his hand on my shoulder as if he was forcibly going.
“Mikhail, I will guide you on the way back. First here…”
But at that moment.
“Get your hands off.”
I quietly glared at the article.
Startled, the knight’s fingertips trembled.
It was obvious what he was thinking of me.
In fact, it would have been really like that just a few days ago.
But not anymore.
I had no intention of falling victim to such a prank.
“No matter how unilaterally the marriage broke up, I was once the fiancé of the princess you serve, and I am the rightful heir to Walpurgis.”
“…!”
At my words, the knight’s face turned pale. I remember the name of this article.
“Knight MacCoin. I’ll ask. Are you great enough to touch Walpurgis’s body?”
“…no.”
I slowly showed my strength to McCoin, who answered me in a daze. Currently, my realm is only the 4th circle, but my soul is different.
I was the great mage of the 9th circle.
His face turned blue when he pressed McCoin with force.
“Ugh…?!”
“If you want to get me out of here, I’ll give you the simplest answer.”
He glared at McKinney and said.
“Tell Ailender to come right away.”
“…!”
“Don’t uselessly roll your hair that doesn’t suit you right now.”
* * *
‘What, what, his eyes…’
McCain exhaled, feeling momentarily rigid.
Couldn’t admit it.
He must have had nothing but the family of ‘Walpurgis’.
The fact that Mikhail Walpurgis was a well-known half-penny in my own family was quite famous.
Just a few days ago, Mikhail couldn’t even breathe properly in front of him.
But now….
“Tell Ailender to come right away.”
That Mikhail was glaring at him with ferocious eyes.
It was the first time I knew that those bright red eyes could be so fierce.
I knew it intuitively.
Realizing that it was not something he could solve, he turned to the duke again as if spilling something on it.
“…You told Ailender to come? Is that Mikhail?”
“Yes that’s right.”
At those words, the Duke let out a drool as if he was uncomfortable.
A normal opponent would have kicked them out immediately.
The problem is that even if you don’t know Mikhail, the Walpurgis family is not a family that can be easily considered.
furthermore….
‘Somehow I don’t have a good feeling.’
It was also suspected that there might be a reason why Mikhail came out so strong.
“It’s difficult. The Paslov family will come here soon…“
If you command me, I will send it back with a little effort.”
“No, that doesn’t seem like a problem that can be solved.”
What should I do?
The duke drooled. But then, Eileen, who had been listening to all the stories, stepped forward.
“I will go out once.”
“…you mean?”
“Yes, Mikhail will be my goal anyway, so I can just send him back like he did back then.”
She got up as if it was no big deal.
“You said you were waiting at the front door, Sir MacCoin, right?”
“Yes that’s right.”
“Please guide me.”
At that, McKinney paused for a moment. It felt like I had to say something.
“That princess…?”
“Is something wrong?”
“That is…”
He hesitated for a moment.
Maybe I shouldn’t think of that Mikhail from a few days ago right now.
something a little different
but….
“…no.”
Soon he shook his head.
Thinking that maybe it was just my own illusion….
“Go away.”
He and Eileen headed to the place where Mikhail was waiting.
Great mage who transcends by regression
