Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius

Episode 92

Warm sunlight tickled my face.

I feel so drowsy that I don’t even want to move my body and I want to stay in bed for the rest of my life.

What a peaceful and happy daily life this is.

I wish every day was like this.

‘The hatchling has disappeared and cannot be seen.’

I was worried about the hatchling suddenly disappearing, but all that aside, I was happy with the time I was having.

For the first time in a long time, I felt like I could rest without worrying about anything.

Knock knock.

Someone knocked on the door.

He raised his upper body, scratched his messy hair and said.

“come in.”

Squeak.

The door opened and Ellis came inside.

In her hands was a washcloth and a dry towel.

‘I’ve never called…?’

Her appearance was sudden.

I told him not to come visit me unless he was eating or had something else to do.

“The Count is looking for you.”

“My father me?”

“yes. “He wants you to come now.”

What kind of wind is blowing Count Millennium to look for me?

As I was wiping my face with the washcloth she brought, she reached out and straightened my hair.

“What about clothes?”

“I have prepared it.”

She handed me the clothes she had draped over her left arm.

A white shirt and a blue livery with a knight’s insignia… Wait a minute, a livery?

Uniforms are rarely worn unless there is a special occasion.

The only time I wear a uniform is when there is a special event within the count’s family.

“What’s going on?”

“sorry. “I can’t tell you.”

“Hmm…”

Ellis bows his head.

I can’t tell you… there’s no need to rush.

Ellis, who was looking at me dressed in uniform, muttered with small admiration.

“Of course you are….”

“What are you?”

“no. Please go quickly.”

Ellis blushed and turned around.

And then I went out with the face wash I used.

I left it with a passing maid and guided me to where Count Millennium was.

“Count. Master Millennium has arrived.”

“Let me in.”

Ellis opened the door and stepped back.

When I went inside and looked at Count Millennium, I couldn’t believe my eyes.

“father?”

He was wearing uniform like me.

The pure white uniform and pure white robe that are only seen when entering the royal palace, as well as the insignia symbolizing the kingdom’s great wizard.

I reflexively looked around to see him wearing something he wouldn’t wear unless he was meeting royalty.

‘Is the crown prince here?’

Considering the crown prince’s personality, that’s quite possible.

But fortunately, there was not even a trace of him, let alone the crown prince, anywhere in the office.

“Are you here?”

Count Millennium looked at me with an awkward expression, adjusting his tie.

In his left hand, which was not holding his tie, he was holding a letter with a red seal.

“Why did you call me?”

Count Millennium’s behavior was strange in many ways.

Strange eyes and awkward gestures.

“Hmm.”

He cleared his throat and opened his mouth with a serious expression.

“Raymond Millennium, please be polite and accept the letter from the Crown Prince.”

“…!”

Letter from the crown prince.

With that one word, I immediately understood why I had to wear a uniform and why Count Millennium, who was wearing a uniform, was looking at me so much.

Receiving a letter from the crown prince is by no means a light matter.

The Crown Prince never sends letters or other things containing personal wishes unless they are his.

‘Why is the Crown Prince asking me?’

It was quite shocking that he sent me a letter.

As with the knight’s sword, the crown prince does too many things that don’t make sense.

Above all, the fact that Count Millennium received a letter that should have been sent to me directly also played a role.

The fact that he received a letter related to me means that something is going on, in a good or bad way.

“Raymond Millennium. “I am now receiving a letter from His Majesty the Crown Prince.”

He quickly got down on his left knee, bowed his head, and held out his hands.

A letter was placed on top of my hand.

Count Millennium moved and sat down on the sofa.

Then he motioned for me to sit across from him.

“Check it. I haven’t seen it yet either. I wonder what it is about. “There is no way the crown prince would have sent a letter with the royal family’s seal just to ask how he was doing.”

Using the small knife he gave me, I tore off the seal and took out the contents inside.

-I miss my good friend Raymond.

I start to feel anxious from the beginning.

When a person in power starts flattering like this, you should first be suspicious.

Because it’s clear that there’s something you want from me.

I took a deep breath and read the letter.

There was too much nonsense in the letter.

9 out of 10 included unnecessary questions about how I was doing and asking about the weather.

The contents of the letter can be summarized as follows.

“Attend my birthday party this time.” You

can’t help but be busy wrapping something that would be nice if you simply tell them the purpose.

‘But what did I eat wrong?’

I did not understand the crown prince’s actions.

He and I didn’t have many meetings of this kind.

At best, I only saw him briefly during the academy graduation ceremony.

“what? “What is it about?”

Count Millennium, whose face hardened as if he had misunderstood my expression, took the letter from my hand and read it.

“Huh… this is it. ha ha ha.”

The more he read the letter, the more his expression softened, and towards the end he burst into laughter.

“If I’m not mistaken, the crown prince just sent you an invitation to a birthday party, right?”

“yes. you’re right.”

“I never thought this day would come in my life. How on earth did you trick the crown prince? “The crown prince has a very strict personality and is not the type of person to give something like this easily.”

Even if you asked me that, there was nothing I could answer.

I am perplexed by the crown prince’s actions, but who will answer to whom?

“I guess I shouldn’t go for this, right?”

“Um….”

I wish you would tell me that I can’t go.

I don’t want to go.

There must be a faction fight going on right now, and there was nothing good about me getting involved in it.

I have no desire to attend the birthday party of someone I am not very close to.

However, there is no reason to refuse it.

Refusing the crown prince’s invitation brings its own problems.

“This might not be a bad experience for you.”

Count Millennium said with a strange smile.

It’s not a bad experience… I think I’ll definitely have an experience I’ll never forget if I go this time.

“Raymond.”

“yes.”

Count Millennium opened his mouth with a serious expression.

“I won’t stop you if you go. “It’s not a bad idea to experience politics at least once.”

“….”

“Still, you have to remember this one thing. “The turn of the millennium will change depending on your choices.”

The idea that the millennium would be determined by my choices sounded quite threatening.

And I vaguely guessed why he said that.

‘Millennium’s successor.’

I am in a position to take responsibility for Millennium when Count Millennium is away.

Therefore, it is safe to say that I am a representative of the family head in the political arena where there is no head of the family.

If I say I take someone’s side while drunk, Millennium will follow my words.

Millennium’s name is heavy.

‘Why on earth are you giving permission?’

What is the reason you say something like that?

If you’re worried, you shouldn’t send it.

Is it really necessary to scare people like that?

I sighed in frustration and sank down on the sofa.

I hate birthdays.

When it comes to birthdays, there are too many things to take care of and it gets messy.

Especially since it was the crown prince’s birthday, I was worried about what would be a good birthday present.

However, you can’t just buy anything and go.

If you give a bad gift, you may tarnish Millennium’s name.

“ah! father.”

“hmm?”

“Do you have any of Reid’s skin left?”

“There is still a lot left. But why do you ask that?”

“I think I need it.”

When I thought about it, there was no need to worry too much about a birthday present.

Because there was something more valuable than any birthday gift right nearby.

***

The Millennium Count family became noisy once again.

A rumor spread that Raymond had received an invitation from the crown prince.

The meaning of the crown prince’s invitation had already spread widely, so most of the people in the count’s family believed it was just a rumor.

No matter how great Raymond’s performance was, he didn’t think it was good enough to receive an invitation.

Move quickly!

You must prepare by today at the latest!

I looked blankly at the maids working diligently.

They were preparing the things I needed to go to the royal family, including clothes for me to wear and wrapping the gifts they had prepared.

I looked at them blankly, then grabbed a nearby maid and asked.

“Hey…”

“Did you call me?”

“Where is Ellis?”

When I grabbed her, she trembled, thought for a moment, and then opened her mouth.

“Elise says she is taking care of some backlogged work.”

Ellis returned from his trip to the North and was promoted to the next level.

Head maid.

It went up to just below the head maid.

Perhaps that’s why she had so much more to do.

Still, I never thought I would be so busy that I wouldn’t see my face once for two days.

‘Then do I have to go alone?’

If you’re that busy, you probably won’t be able to keep up with the royal family.

However, I have no desire to take around another maid or butler that I am not familiar with.

“it will work out somehow.”

If you go alone, you go alone. If not, you go together.

I don’t want to worry about that while I’m already thinking about how to deal with the crown prince.

The day to go to the royal family has arrived.

Count Millennium and his retainers came out to see me off as I stood in front of the warp device.

“Have a nice trip.”

Count Millennium waved at me with an expression that showed no great concern.

One by one, the retainers said goodbye.

“Let’s go. young master.”

Mahol, who was carrying the luggage, spoke to me.

“uh.”

The magic circle glowed, and when I closed my eyes and opened them, I could see the inside of the magic tower.

“uh? “It’s Raymond.”

“I heard you recently became a knight. “Really?”

Ignoring the gazes and voices of the apprentice wizards, I headed towards the main gate of the Magic Tower.

“Please get in.”

Four drivers and a coachman welcomed me.

The carriage was very fancy.

It was decorated with gold and jewels, so much so that I thought it was excessive.

“I will take you safely to the royal palace.”

Two of the knights who bowed their heads to me were familiar faces.

The knights who escorted me when I went to the academy.

After the bandit incident, the knights’ eyes on me changed.

He no longer looked at me with contempt.

Hee hee hee!

The horse started running when the coachman whipped his whip, and I lay down on the couch of the carriage.

“Wake me up when we arrive.”

You can reach the royal palace in just half a day.

After saying this to Mahol, I closed my eyes.

How much time has passed like that?

Rattling.

The carriage suddenly stopped and Mahol stood up.

“Haa…”

He closed his eyes and sighed briefly.

Monsters full of impure intentions surrounded the carriage.
