Episode 5. Making ropes (4)

“Hey! You bastard! What are you talking about to the crown prince!”

The nobles shoved me and shouted.

“I heard it all a while ago. You bastard, you said you were a commoner! How dare you come here!”

He says as he pats my chest.

A lot of people pay attention to the sudden uproar. The emperor is also watching this.

The knights were also vigilant with their hands on their weapons, probably feeling the signs of an accident.

I sighed and glanced at the faces of the nobles.

These are unfamiliar faces.

Kids without illustrations aren’t very helpful in the progress of the episode, so there was no problem even if we treated them a little harshly.

“I was invited by the prince sitting over there. Are you a great family enough to disobey the crown prince’s orders?”

“What, what…… ?”

“If you are dissatisfied with me being here, why don’t you complain to the crown prince?”

I said with my eyes wide open so as not to activate my life as much as possible.

“You are so arrogant for a commoner! How could a commoner like you—”

“No, no. Did you lose your brain cells as well as your hair?”

I shook my head as I interrupted the nobleman’s words.

“What…… !”

As expected, the hair loss drip was a seizure button, so the hair loss noble started to go into a fit of rage.

Ah, so who told you to fight?

“You dare this bastard! Who are you insulting!”

I couldn’t stand it and I snorted as I saw him pointing at me and yelling at me.

“Think about it, though? Why did you invite me, a commoner, to a banquet where only nobles would come? Why did you bother to call me among the commoners, as many as rolling stones?”

“That, that…… You bastard ordered me for some reason…….”

“Me? The crown prince? You’re saying something that’s not even funny. If that was possible, I would have been engaged to that princess by now.”

I deliberately pointed at the princess and said.

Princess Se-ri also didn’t know that she would be singled out, so she looked at me in amazement.

I’m sorry. I have no heart for you.

I felt a sense of crisis at the rudeness that made all the nobles in this room enemies, but I couldn’t help it.

If you go out at this level, even the crown prince will think that there is a corner to trust.

“When it comes to making a side for yourself, isn’t there anything more certain than attracting your family?”

If you look at rich people in dramas, there are still many cases where they get married for business reasons.

I spit out the words while recalling a suitable case.

“…… Anyway, what I want to say is this, I am standing here because of the crown prince, and if you want to kick me out, ask the crown prince for permission first. Then you know how to get out I don’t want to come to a place like this either.”

As I confidently pointed my finger at the crown prince, the hairless aristocrat looked back and forth between Chris and me.

I hesitate to ask permission from the prince.

“This bastard… ….”

“Poop!”

A laugh escaped from the mouth of the prince who had been standing still.

“Puhahahaha!!”

Chris laughed heartily as he pushed her neck as hard as he could. For a while, his laughter echoed through the banquet hall.

No one could open their mouths or act upon the prince’s reaction.

Only Tina said, “Master, that person is strange.” Said, frowning.

“Stay still.”

I said, patting Tina on the head.

“Yes, yes… …. Should I say that he is Phasma’s disciple? It is freedom regardless of status. That person also rejected Obama’s words.”

Are you referring to the order to assume the position of commander of the Imperial Knights?

At the same time that Phasma reached the level of sword master, he refused the opportunity to become a nobleman.

Perhaps she still considered herself lacking, but it was because she heard that if Ariel was by the emperor’s side, her ability to kill demons could be limited.

Actually, the Imperial Knights, as the name suggests, were a group of knights gathered to protect the imperial family.

Among them, the commander of the knights had to stand by the emperor for the rest of his life as an escort, so he couldn’t protect the people of the empire from the demons.

That’s what Phasma and Ariel didn’t like.

“I know you are 19 years old, but how can you become a disciple? Phasma died earlier than that?”

That’s right.

Isn’t it strange that people misunderstand you as a disciple?

“Hmm. Were you a disciple of a disciple? I heard that you taught various things to your colleagues who killed demons together……. Anyway, his personality is strong.”

A disciple of a disciple…….

In the end, I was treated like a disciple. Did Duke Tory come to this conclusion and call me a disciple?

“But you’ve gone too far, Prause. You are a commoner and this one is a nobleman. Even I am a prince. In an empire with a strict caste system, it is difficult for commoners to show off formality to the nobles and the imperial family.”

I guess so. I know.

Those who disturb the hierarchy were punished. Since he insulted the imperial family, which is called the heart of the empire, the price was bound to be high.

However, the prince was speaking generously because he knew that I had defeated Urca and had strong magical power.

Perhaps the reason is to make sure that the words are useful in the process of becoming emperor.

“So I have to question the rudeness this time… ….”

I listened to the prince in silence.

“…… You don’t blink an eye. I feel confident that I can beat everyone in this room.”

No. This is because of the facial expression management skill.

Can’t you see my hands are shaking?

“Well, anyway, today is a good day. As a condition of being lenient, try to subdue the knight commander right here and now.”

I was taken aback by his words. The knight commander stood by the emperor’s side with no change in expression.

“Are you okay? Conver.”

“What should I do, Your Majesty the Emperor?”

“…… Isn’t it fun An event like this wouldn’t be bad for a New Year’s party.”

The emperor readily agreed.

The leader of the knights was not an adventurer, but he was considered an S-class, and he was a sword master.

Will you win by fighting such a bastard without relics?

Georgeko seems to want to kill me.

“Don’t like it? If you don’t like it, I have no choice but to punish you for contempt for the nobility and the imperial family.”

Chris crossed his legs and twisted the corner of his mouth up. The nobles next to them flirted.

I was infuriated by the attitude that you did well, but I knew that Prince Chris was not on my side anyway.

Because Prince Chris distinguishes people by whether they are useful or not.

“Then I will make a condition. If you subdue the knight commander, understand the future rudeness.”

For me, I had no choice but to set this condition.

Since the expression management skill cannot be changed, there was no choice but to ask for permission from the other person.

However, the prince’s eyes became sharper as if he were uncomfortable with my condition. His displeasure is evident.

“Ha… …. Does the imperial family look like a dick to you? I don’t think you’re in a position to put conditions on it?”

‘But I can’t help it. With a skill like this, you can’t beat people up like breaking a seal every time you speak rudely.’

“I can kill everyone right here and get out of the way.”

f*ck. A little… !

At my bombshell remarks, the banquet hall instantly buzzes.

The sound of drawing a sword can be heard from around.

The crown prince also had a puzzled expression at the provocative words that came out of my mouth.

The elated smile of a moment ago disappeared in an instant.

“Your Highness Chris! Punish this man immediately for contempt—”

‘Wait.’

“Shut up.”

[Activates the skill 「Living」.]

From noble mtl dot com

“Keugh! What spirit!”

I was taken aback by the completely unintentional skill activation.

The nobles who faced my life straight back hurriedly retreated.

No matter how noble they were, not everyone could be competent in force or magic.

Feeling the danger and backing down was the only thing they could do.

“This is so… ….”

I hear Chris’ voice mixed with laughter.

He had a rather grotesque smile. A strange delight escaped from the corners of his parted mouth.

As if he had been looking for a human like me all this time.

“Ha ha ha… ! Yes, that’s right. After all, that word was ‘true’.”

That word? What are you talking about?

“The spirit is clearly as stated in the book, but still…… I want to see that skill in person. Prause. If you just prove it, I’ll make sure you understand the rudeness in the future.”

In the end, it seemed that the fight was inevitable.

But there was nothing strange about my actions, even if I was executed.

If it had only been with nobles, it would have been possible to get help from the duke’s family, but it was impossible to get rid of it even if it was taken out because he was talking to the crown prince, who was called the next emperor.

But Ella, what is that woman out of breath?

“Proof… ….”

As I looked around the entire banquet hall, the knights were mostly in a state where they were pulling out their swords.

I really wanted to put Tina first.

But using Tina in this fight proves my incompetence.

“… Is it okay to subdue the knight commander?”

“That’s true, but I wanted to see it properly. Not here, but in the training ground in the backyard.”

Now that I’ve come this far, it seemed there was no way to refuse sparring.

But fortunately, by going out to the arena, I got a chance to receive a weapon.

If they had fought in the banquet hall, they would have had to fight with their hands, so it was a 100 percent quality fight.

If you can wear at least one of the ‘unshakable spirit of revenge’ and ‘wind sword – aura’, you will be able to win this fight.

“Yes, I do.”

“As expected, Master! They’re the royal family, and they’re beating everything up!”

Tina, can you shut up? Don’t be disturbed for nothing.

I stopped Tina from talking nonsense.

“Wooden sword…… ?”

Looking at the wooden stick in my hand, I said.

“Isn’t killing each other a little like that?”

“I don’t mind using a real sword. No, I think a real sword would be better.”

At my words, Chris shook his head.

“That is not possible. It’s not nice to see one of them crippled. It’s for entertainment, but I don’t want Conver to get hurt and cause trouble to Obama.”

Conver. It was the name of the knight commander.

“…… Right.”

I pretended to understand and screamed inwardly.

f*ck! Help me!

“Please come upstairs to the arena!”

Perhaps it is a knight who looks after the referee, he speaks loudly. Looking at his face, it was the knight who interrogated me and took 50 gold.

When I went up to the arena, I saw the Commander of the Knights of Conver, exuding ferocious spirit.

“The spirit you showed me a while ago was definitely full of confidence. It was like seeing Phasma-nim whom I saw when I was young.”

The wooden sword is enveloped in blue energy. It seemed as if he was on the verge of ascending to the level of a sword master.

“…… Is it.”

“Then let’s begin.”

Convert takes a stance. He was ready to run at any moment.

The referee knight’s hand goes up high.

There was no more hole to escape. My destiny seemed to end here.

I clumsily grabbed the wooden sword and looked at Conver.

In the eyes of the referee knight, it seemed that he had established his posture, so he lowered his arm without hesitation.

“Start—!”
