I Became a Sick Nobleman

Chapter 50: A Noble Person (3)

***

“If you talk nonsense, you won’t die beautifully.”

Ruel glared furiously at his agent.

With the aura that broke through his mask, the agent bowed to the point where his head touched the carriage floor.

Aris, who was sitting next to him, quietly drew his sword.

“Of course, of course. I, I’m not going to do anything stupid and talk nonsense!”

Mana’s oath hung in the heart of the trembling agent.

“You wouldn’t have had to follow me.”

Cassion glared at the agent and opened his mouth.

“It’s strange that you have no injuries.”

A real patient joined the scheduled trade to act as a person injured from the attack.

It was amazing.

Cassion couldn’t even laugh.

As he approached the meeting place, Ruel finally checked their story matched with his agent.

“How did you say you’d introduce us?”

“Th-This is my escort!”

“What’s the situation?”

“While killing the adventurer, I met soldiers on patrol and there was a big fight, and you were the only ones who survived.”

“And?”

“It took a long time because the soldiers were strong and they were forced to leave the corpses in the Masu Forest. They left no traces, so I have to tell them to be rest assured.”

After everything, the agent looked into Ruel’s eyes.

The agent was Liberan’s subordinate, but all he knew was that he had to deliver something to an organization.

“What about Liberan?”

“I have already reported that this is progressing as scheduled.”

“Yes, you should report regularly.”

Ruel laughed.

I don’t know if it’s because Leo ate a lot of black things or because the power of recovery grew again, but anyway, I felt healthier than before.

Ruel reached out to Cassion.

He familiarly handed Ruel a cookie wrapped in his hand.

Crunch.

‘As expected, you need to eat cookies to calm down.’

After having the agent turn his head, Ruel gave one to Leo as well.

Crunch.

The carriage filled with the sound of cookies being chewed.

If you catch them by their tails, find their base and destroy them, everything that gets in our way will disappear.

We will now be able to enjoy a rich, peaceful and ordinary life.

Ruel painted a happy future.

***

“… So what about the thing?”

The man asked from behind.

A few words were spoken.

He simply asked questions about things within the range that Ruel had anticipated and told the agent beforehand.

The agent replied calmly, feeling Ruel’s gaze.

“I brought it.”

Ruel’s group entered a restaurant in the neutral zone and waited for them to come.

But it wasn’t them who came, it was one guy.

Cassion sat next to his agent and showed him the ruby-studded necklace.

“I checked.”

It sounded low.

Cassion put his hand back and handed the necklace.

In the midst of hand-to-hand contact, Cassion left a trail for tracking.

As soon as the item was handed over, the man stood up.

When the man disappeared completely, Cassion opened his mouth.

“He’s gone.”

Ruel smirked and sliced the meat.

And he looked at the agent and checked.

“You know what to do, right?”

“Of, of course. I know.”

“Keep the evidence together while I go do other things, and don’t get caught.”

“… Yes.”

“Go.”

The agent bowed to Ruel and ran away.

As long as there was Mana’s oath, the agent was in the palm of his hand anyway.

“Can you track where he went?”

“Yes, he was injured. He smelled like blood.”

Cassion raised the corner of his mouth.

“He was injured?”

Ruel’s hand stopped.

I fiddled with the fork at the unfamiliar fact.

“What do you think?”

“Someone’s tracking him.”

“I feel the same way. I could see several mana as if he was enchanted with.”

Hearing Cassion and Aris, Ruel lowered his hand and stroked Leo.

‘There’s someone else who knows Red Ash?’

If so, we had to hurry.

Ruel put the meat in his mouth in disappointment and held Leo in his arms.

“Let’s go.”

Ruel rose from his seat.

***

Cassion stopped and fiddled with the soil and smelled it.

‘He rode from here.’

He left the neutral zone and headed for the forest, and fled on a horse waiting for him.

‘But you won’t get out of my hands.’

Cassion returned to Ruel and reported what he had found.

“What’s the distance?”

“It’s not far. I’ll prepare a horse.”

Cassion paused and looked at Ruel.

“Do you know how to ride it?”

And then his eyes turned to Aris.

“I know how to ride.”

“I don’t know.”

“All right.”

For a moment a sneer was drawn around Cassion’s mouth.

A nobleman who can’t ride a horse.

Horseback riding is one of the basic knowledge of the aristocracy.

Cassion bought two horses and came back.

For safety, Cassion and Ruel rode together, and Aris rode with Leo.

“I will teach you when the opportunity arises. There shouldn’t be a rumor going around that the house lord can’t even ride a horse.”

“…let’s go.”

Seeing that he was scolded for not being able to ride a horse, he seemed to have accumulated quite a lot of lessons.

Ruel was broad-minded.

But soon Ruel changed his mind.

I didn’t know that the horse was such a wobbly creature.

Comparing Aris and his horse, he admired Cassion’s riding skills.

It was worth showing off his riding skills.

Suddenly, Cassion stopped the horse.

“Why?”

“He stopped. It seems that he has been caught by the forces that are pursuing him. And…”

He mumbled and looked to his left.

Following him, everyone turned their heads into the woods.

Aris pulled out his sword and got off his horse.

“There’s someone.”

“Wait a minute.”

Cassion stopped Aris.

He didn’t sense any life from the other person.

“Oh, I was surprised. I can’t believe someone recognizes me.”

A man who looked like an idiot came walking with a sword in his hand.

Cassion carefully dismounted Ruel and walked to the man.

“What’s your goal?”

“Well, why don’t you put down your swords for now? Can you tell when you see this?”

The man rummaged through his body and pulled out a piece of paper.

A pattern with 7 swords pierced towards the heart.

When Ruel saw the pattern, he asked, “Are you a prince?”

“I’m not… He has something to do. Come with me.”

“Which prince is it?”

The man grinned and spread out three fingers.

The youngest prince of Leponia, Banios Leponia.

Why is he here?

Banios Leponia in the novel was a prince without foundation or power.

He couldn’t think of the reason why he was entangled with the Red Ash, who’s a secret organization.

Ruel reached out to Cassion.

“Cane.”

“Here you go.”

I had to be careful because my opponent was a prince.

Banios Leponia, he was a terrible workaholic.

***

Entering the forest, dozens of soldiers stood around a man.

Banios, who has an elegant image that one can immediately tell that he is a prince at first sight, jumped up from his seat and waved his hand gladly.

‘Since when did we know each other?’

Ruel approached Banios with a cane.

He bowed as politely as he could.

Cassion and Aris, who were standing behind Ruel at the same time, took the courtesy of greeting the royal family.

“I see your Highness. I’m sorry I couldn’t be polite because I wasn’t feeling well.”

“No, I’ve heard of it.”

‘You heard it? From whom?’

As Ruel panicked, Banios grinned and said.

“Oh, the order is wrong. Sir Ganien Croft praised you so much.”

“Is Ganien with your highness?”

No way.

Ganien had to visit the second prince, who is now most likely to be the next king, not Banios.

“It’s a face of surprise. That’s understandable. I caught Sir Croft trying to visit you and made him my friend.”

“… Did you lure him into a match?”

No way, Ruel asked, unsure.

“Oh, how did you know? Haha, he was a great guy, he never gets tired after knocking down more than 100 of my soldiers.”

Banios laughed cheerfully.

He waved at the soldiers surrounding him.

“Leave until I call you.”

“We accept your orders!”

The soldiers, who were closely disciplined, lined up as if they were one person and went deep into the forest.

“Now, it is easier to talk to you, Lord Ruel Setiria.”

“How did you know me?”

Banios opened his mouth, pointing to a flat-looking stone.

“Sit down for now. You’re not feeling well and I’ve heard from Ganien enough to get a scab in my ear.”

“I can’t be rude, cough, cough!”

Ruel’s body bent with a cough that popped out while talking.

“It’s an order.”

“… I see.”

The prince told me to sit down, so I’ll sit down. Ruel sat on a rock.

It was worth living. I thought as I inhaled Breath.

‘There’s no other party between the prince and me.’

If there was close surveillance, Cassion would have noticed.

I shrugged my shoulders when I glanced at him.

‘The servants in the mansion were brought in after thorough investigation. Oh, there is one person I haven’t been with since I was a Lord.’

Somehow I thought it was bold.

Ruel took off his mask.

What’s the point of using it when he knows your identity anyway?

“You’re sick.”

The prince looked at Ruel’s face and looked sorry for him.

“That’s right.”

“That makes me hesitate a little.”

“How did you know?”

Perhaps a cheeky question, but Banios didn’t care much.

As if reminiscing about the past while stroking his chin, the sound of ‘sighing’ came out of his mouth over and over again.

“It was nothing. It was just a casual coincidence. I went to see my brother and found him.”

Ruel calmly waited for him to speak.

“A letter that maneuvered something with Carbena Setiria.”

“…ha.”

Is it Carbena again?

Ruel sighed automatically.

There was no end to the waves, so I was annoyed.

“It was strange. You are the ruler of Setiria I know.”

“Mineta must have been your agent.”

“An agent? I’ve never heard of such news.”

“Someone seems to have covered the eyes of the royal family.”

Banios was not particularly angry.

We continued to talk.

“Until I see the letter.”

Tap. Tap.

Banios came closer to Ruel.

“I didn’t know that either.”

Then he glanced at Cassion and Aris, who were standing far away, and asked.

“Are they trustworthy?”

Ruel replied without a moment’s hesitation.

“Of course.”

“All right, then…”

Ruel shook his head from side to side, inhaling Breath.

“I don’t know what you’re going to ask me to do, but I’m out of it.”

“Didn’t you come all the way here after chasing the Red Ash?”

The corners of Banios’ mouth went up.

‘I shouldn’t have stepped out.’

It was no coincidence.

Banios thoroughly waited here for himself and the man with the ruby-studded necklace.

Where did they find out?

Ruel exhaled lightly.

“I’m not feeling well.”

“I know.”

“What kind of deal did you make with Ganien?”

“It’s not a deal, it’s a cooperation, and I’ve decided to send one of my men to catch the rat hiding in the Cyronian Kingdom.”

The words were a little strange. Ruel burst out laughing.

“Don’t tell me you’re talking about me, right?”

“That’s right.”

“Today, for the first time, I met the third prince, Ha-ha.”

“I am not, um. It’s the first time I’ve seen you in person, but I’ve heard about you from time to time. That’s why you’re so familiar.”

Banios talked about bullshit for a long time.

“So let’s change the subject. Carbena Setiria…”

“It’s just Carbena. Don’t put with Setiria.”

“Excuse me, anyway, when I saw a letter from Carbena pretending to be the housekeeper, It was so weird that I did a separate investigation.”

“All of a sudden?”

“Okay, all of a sudden. Until then, I did not covet the throne, because I believed that my brother would lead this country brilliantly.”

Banios’ mouth drew an arc.

It was as bitter as autumn.

“You know what Setiria is like. The gates of the country have been opened. You, the lord, were imprisoned.”

“You were wise. If you had saved me, I would have lost my neck.”

“Yeah, I’m glad you don’t blame me.”

Ruel had a calm look.

There was a time when I thought people who barely managed to deal with a drugged Carbena were stupid.

But it wasn’t by any means.

Five years ago it was really huge enough for them to just let it go.

Ruel asked calmly.

“When did you start looking for it?”

“Three years ago. My strength was weak, so I only managed to break through the surveillance and get here.”

“Have you taken care of the Second Prince’s ears?”

If the powerful second prince had dealt with Carbena, it was clear that he was keeping an eye on Setiria.

Of course, that surveillance has diminished over time.

“I got them.”

Banios proudly said.

“Don’t worry, I’ll keep blocking Setiria’s information.”

“I don’t know if I should say thank you, honestly.”

“I didn’t do anything to hear that, but I’d rather ask you to do something.”

“Please tell me first.”

Setiria was not yet fully rebuilt.

But there was enough power to overcome royal pressure.

There was nothing to lose.

“I want to be the king, so please support me.”

Ruel immediately frowned.

It was a sound that had to be.

The prince met for the first time today, regardless of whether he has power or not.

Can you believe in him?

“Let’s think slowly about the request just now and solve the Red Ash that hid in the country first.”

“Setiria is not what it used to be.”

“But that role hasn’t changed yet.”

Banios was very aware of the role of Setiria.

The gatekeeper of the Kingdom of Leponia. A place that should never be weak.

“Give me the information you know.”

“Liberan.”

“I know.”

“There is a place in the Cyronian Kingdom that is believed to be their stronghold, so I brought in Sir Croft and cooperated with him.”

Ruel grinned.

As expected, the main character is caught in the middle of a huge incident.

“Good information. Please give me more details later.”

Hearing Ruel’s brazen demand, Banios laughed.

“Oh, I got one, so I’ll give you one. Cassion.”

Cassion took the paper out of his pocket.

It was precisely a copy of the paper taken from the ruby necklace.

“It’s from the guy you caught. I stole the confidential document he was trying to steal.”

Ruel waved the paper in front of Banios’eyes.

He will be very surprised to see the contents.
