Chapter 212
Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius
Episode 212:
I felt stinging gazes.
The gazes surrounding me. Along with the knights, the soldiers belonging to Easton were glaring at me.
Just a little while ago, their gazes toward me were full of camaraderie, but why did it become like this?
I turned my head and looked to both sides.
âIt looks like there are a lot of people to spar with.â
âRaymond, you are always causing trouble.â
Selina and Beatrice were moving right next to me.
During the three months I didnât see them, their beauty continued to shine.
Before, I still felt young, but now I exuded maturity.
Three months may be a long time, but it was not long enough for my appearance to change this much.
âWhat on earth did you do to your face?â
Since Selina was directly described as beautiful in the original work, it was expected that her appearance would become more beautiful.
But Beatrice was unexpected.
It was beautiful enough before, but nowâ¦
âIs this what the three flowers of the kingdom are like?â
Selina, Beatrice and Daria, the first princess.
It was a term used to refer to beauties representing the kingdom.
She was said to be so beautiful that they would go beyond all means to come to see Selina just to get a glimpse of her, and there were also people who came every day under the pretext of sparring to meet Selina.
Beatrice, known as the flower of the magic world, was less fortunate.
Because there were so many eccentric wizards around, they filtered out people on their own.
Daria left the kingdom with the people who came to her, so to be precise, I should say two flowers.
Anyway, thatâs not whatâs important right now.
There was a saying that Selina was the best among them.
âThis is surprising in a different way.â
While Selina, with her silver hair, was a beauty with a mysterious and calm charm, Beatrice was extremely gorgeous with red hair.
A beauty whose appearance will never be obscured even if she is adorned with jewels.
There were two beautiful women who would run after them blankly if they encountered them while passing by, so it was natural that the soldiersâ eyes would follow them.
The only problem was that the girls who caught everyoneâs attention followed me around.
Yes, I understand.
Since this is a foreign country, you may feel shy because you donât know anyone.
But that also has its limits. I feel frustrated after chasing after him all day.
That was true on the day, but after a night, they followed me around like leeches.
When I heard that they were following me outside, I missed the right time to visit the elves.
âShouldnât Selina go to her father at least?â
The reason she was able to come here was because of Baneâs permission.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
However, when she came here, she did not meet Bane, except for bowing her head once.
I wonder if Bane would have shown his disappointment at that sight.
âWhat are you doing there?â
Whatâs even crazier is that Bane, who initially expressed disappointment, is now just watching like a bystander.
Itâs absurd to see a happy face from far away.
âDonât worry about me, just do your job.â
âHaaâ¦â
I sighed at his words.
I should be able to feel more comfortable if I drop them.
-There is no place for profit!
If it were so bad, would Riems run away?
I calmed Riems down by stroking his head invisibly.
âRaymond, I would like you to spar with me. Just like beforeâ¦â
âBefore that, do it for me first. âI have a new magicâ¦â
They clung to me and talked to me like children bragging to their parents about what they learned at school.
At first, I accepted it with a smile.
I didnât hesitate because it was an opportunity to see how far they had grown.
But thatâs only happened once or twice, this is already the fourth time.
As soon as she woke up, she clung to me and begged me to spar with her, while Beatrice was anxious to show me her magic.
I felt a sense of disconnect from the girls I knew.
Beatrice is also Beatrice, but Selina was a very arrogant woman, and nowâ¦
âAs for sparring, if you ask them over there, you can do as much as you want.â
âSoon, you will have to use magic even if you donât want to, so be careful.â
He calmed them down and dissuaded them.
The knightsâ eyes sparkled with anticipation of being able to spar with Selina.
No matter how much they care about women, their appearance inevitably catches their eye.
âHmmâ¦â
Selina looks back at the knights. Her eyes examined the articles as if evaluating a product.
Then, she glanced back at me, savored her food with a strange look in her eyes, and nodded.
âIâm sure⦠thereâs something I can learn.â
Is it possible to know that just by looking at it?
Come to think of it, she was also talented.
Raymondâs swordsmanship talent was so deceptive that it was buried, but her talent was so great that it could not be ignored.
If it werenât for me, if Ahar had taken it, if she hadnât discovered it, she could have become the most talented swordsman of her time.
Even across the entire continent, there were only five people with talent greater than hers.
Thatâs how outstanding her talent was.
âItâs good. âI will spar with them.â
The knights cheered at her words.
Aside from the knights, the soldiers were also excited that their turn would come.
One person has been resolved, and now all we have to do is drop Beatrice.
âOh, that would be fine.â
Now that I think about it, there is a place where a wizard is needed.
I headed to the command barracks with Beatrice.
As morning begins, the Marquis of Easton and his vassals gather in the command barracks.
When the meeting was over, the vassals left, but the Marquess of Easton stayed behind to handle business.
There was no separate office.
His bedroom and office were also located within the castle.
Nevertheless, work was being carried out in the barracks.
This is something that other nobles can never imagine.
When I asked the Marquis of Easton the reason, he said that he felt relieved only when he was in the command barracks.
When I go into the office and do some work, I feel restless and feel like Iâm wearing clothes that donât fit my body. They say that I only feel at ease when I go into the command barracks, so who can stop that?
Moreover, he is the most powerful person here.
There is no way anyone can stop him.
âMore than anything, the knights and vassals look familiar.â
In any other place, he would have stopped his actions, saying it was disrespectful, but here it was different.
It was a familiar experience, and it felt strange that he was not in the command barracks.
I feel more strongly that he is the commander of an army rather than the owner of a lord.
So, you can meet him at any time by visiting the command barracks.
It was still like that now.
âOh Raymon⦠Wow!â
A soldier standing guard in front of the command barracks noticed me and took a deep breath while trying to greet me.
I can see that his gaze was drawn to Beatrice, who came with me, as he looked blankly next to me.
âThe commander is inside, right?â
ââ¦.â
He snapped his fingers in front of his blank face.
After bouncing several times, he took a deep breath and came to his senses.
âWhat did you say?â
âI want to see the commander.â
âHe is inside. But next to thatâ¦?â
âThis is a wizard who will help us this time. So, would you please wipe the drool from that chin?â
He quickly lifted his hand and wiped his chin.
His face turned slightly red as he wiped his chin and covered his face, probably because he was embarrassed for showing such indecent behavior.
I glanced at Beatrice and saw that she was smiling businesslike.
âCommander.â
âSir Raymond. And next to itâ¦!â
When he raised his head in response to my voice, his eyes turned to my side and his pupils made an earthquake.
He was surprised by Beatriceâs beauty.
For a moment, he did not look as dirty as a soldier standing guard.
I immediately came to my senses and adjusted my posture.
âThey said there was the eldest daughter of the Skylar family who was dispatched as a supply unit this time. I guess you are Miss Beatrice.â
âItâs an honor to meet you. dismissal.â
Beatrice bowed her head towards the Marquis of Easton.
A polite attitude without being excessive.
Perhaps that made him more satisfied, the Marquis of Easton nodded and told me to straighten my back.
âSo whatâs going on? âI remember they already guided me through everything I needed to do.â
Preparations are over and all that remains is to fight the war.
Beatriceâs job in war was to provide support from the rear.
âI came here to repair the wall.â
I spoke first.
Beatrice simply followed me.
âbarrier?â
âyes. âI heard that the wall needs to be repaired.â
âyes. But why is that⦠Ah!â
While wondering, he let out an exclamation as if he realized something.
Then he looked at Beatrice with heated eyes and nodded.
âRight. âItâs definitely a good idea.â
Even though I didnât say anything until the end, he convinced himself with a look of realization on his face.
He jumped up, bowed towards Beatrice, and said.
âPlease do this. Please use that power for us.â
âYou donât have to do that. âWake up!â
Beatrice said to him, horrified.
And he looked at me with an expression that seemed like he didnât understand and wanted an explanation.
I said to her and then to the Marquis of Easton.
âBeatrice is currently a 5th Circle wizard. One day will certainly be a short time, but we will be able to set up a helpful barrier, albeit a weak one. If you think you are having a hard time, please tell me now. âItâs not coercion.â
She frowned at my words.
A magic circle that any wizard can create.
Even a 1st circle wizard can lay down a magic circle if he has enough materials and time.
That means that she, a 5th circle mage, can also do it.
But the problem was time.
No matter how great a magician is, it is difficult to complete a magic circle in half a day unless you are an archmage of the 8th circle or higher.
To be precise, it is difficult to draw a high-level magic circle.
In order to draw a magic circle, you must calculate a formula and place the magic stone properly in the designated location.
If either the formula or the placement is slightly wrong, the magic circle will collapse immediately.
Thatâs what I was asking her to do now.
I would be even more embarrassed because I wasnât told in advance.
But we donât want anything that big.
âI donât want great magic. It is enough to strengthen the walls. âIf time permits, it would be nice if you could draw a magic circle to counterattack, but that is impossible.â
Itâs hard to hope for that right now, as I wouldnât know if she had come with me three months ago.
A magic circle that strengthens the castle walls is enough.
âHmmâ¦â
She ponders.
Drawing a magic circle takes a lot of effort.
âIf itâs hard, you donât have to do it.â
âItâs not that I canât do it, but I need a lot of magic stones.â
âIf thatâs the case, can I replace it with this?â
I took out two ores from my pocket.
One is a low-level magic stone brought by Ellis, and the other is a blood stone received from a great warrior.
As it is an ore that absorbs life force and mana, I thought it might be able to replace magic stones, so I brought it out and her reaction was bigger than I expected.
