Became the Idiot Young Master Who Tormented the Main Character - Chapter 77



77. What Happened at the Ball (1)

It was disconcerting news.

“Stitches came from Prince Verdi?”

“Yes.”

Cian abruptly stopped swinging his sword and looked at Aria and asked.

“Did you originally know Prince Verdi?”

“No, that was the first time I met you, Sian.”

“Then why did Stitch come?”

“That… I don’t really know about that.”

“?”

Aria looked embarrassed as she fiddled with the stitches she had brought.

Cian put the sword he was swinging back into its scabbard and approached Aria.

“Anyway, you came to me because the matter was difficult?”

“Yes.”

“Give me some stitches.”

Cian thought as he received Aria’s stitch.

‘Do you want to make a connection with the Sylvester family?’

The shell packaging was sealed quite carefully.

The quality was different from the stitches that were usually exchanged for reply.

Of course, Bahat, a resource-rich country in the West, can afford this level of luxury.

‘no way….’

-North, north.

Cyan thought as he peeled off the packaging.

‘Did you happen to recognize Aria’s talent? In that fleeting moment?’

Aria has the talent to become a sword master in the future. Cian knew the story of that future.

If Prince Verdi had anticipated him and sent Stitch to establish friendly relations in order to get his hands on Aria in advance… he was a writer with great insight.

‘I thought he was just a spoiled brat prince who liked to play, but I see him again. You shouldn’t judge a book by its cover.’

Cyan quickly unwrapped the stitches and unfolded them.

What on earth was the content and the content to be included that made Aria so troubled?

He glanced at Stitch with serious eyes as he scanned the contents.

‘hmm?’

Soon, Xi’an’s mouth drops open.

‘This is…!’

After all, you shouldn’t judge people by their appearance.

I thought he was just a prince who liked to be debauched and had no tact… .

I had been thinking wrongly until now. It was the moment when Si-an reflected on his yesterday.

▶ To Count Sylvester and Lady Aria

The telepathy you sent me yesterday through your eyes was well received.

I, too, am willing to interact with Aria anytime.

Aria, is it true…!

From Verdi Bahattra.

“… … .”

It’s not that he was clueless, he was just an idiot.

Sian deeply reflected on his past self and vowed not to pretend to know Prince Verdi when he meets him again.

***

“Why haven’t I received a reply! Why on earth…!”

Verdi, sitting at his desk in the dormitory, cried out in anger, clutching the back of his head with both hands.

“I sent it with all my heart… why haven’t you replied even once in a month?”

“… … .”

There was a man looking at him with compassion from the side… .

It was Alberto, Verdi’s uncle and butler who had been assisting him since he was one year old.

Alberto was not happy that his son Verdi was being cheated on by the woman he liked.

Alberto groaned and turned his head.

I thought and thought again about how I could give a good plan to Verdi who was having a hard time.

‘ah!’

Then Alberto finally came up with the idea.

He told Verdi straight away.

“Excuse me, Prince Verdi.”

“What is it, Alberto? I’m in the midst of the dilemma of the century!”

“I know. I’m sorry to bother you, but I wanted to make a suggestion.”

“What is it?”

“Isn’t it almost prom time?”

Ball period.

It is a social party held at the end of the semester by first-year students who have completed all of their grade exams, just before they are promoted to second-year.

This is an annual event that all students from each department, including the Swordsmanship Club, Magic Club, Alchemy Club, and Spirit Club, must attend, and it is held in the ballroom at the end of the building at Ariel Academy.

“What is that?”

“Think about it. How a man and a woman become partners at a ball.”

“How to become a partner…?”

There are two ways to make partners at a ball.

The first is to reach an agreement in advance between close friends.

The second method is to approach the opposite s*x by seducing them with dance and then get married.

Verdi, recalling this, opened his mouth wide as if he had gained a great realization.

“Alberto, that means…!”

“Yes, if it’s a dance by Master Verdi, the best dancer in the Bahatra Empire, there’s no woman in this world who would refuse it.”

“Haha…! Alberto, you are indeed the Zhuge Liang of the Bahatra Empire! If that’s the case, I will never fail!”

“You are too kind.”

“This is not the time, let’s hurry! … I’ll skip all swordsmanship lessons today. Rent a practice room where we can dance right now!”

“yes!”

***

Even after a month had passed, Si-an was anxious as he could not feel any changes in the realm.

He was heading deep into the mountains behind the academy.

‘If I just keep swinging my sword like this, I won’t be able to learn anything. I’ll have to use the old-timer’s tricks.’

The mountain behind the academy is not really a protected area, so you can destroy rocks and trees as much as you want, and it’s a great place with few people.

A training center known only to those in the know. Si-an decided to use this place.

‘huh?’

As Xi’an was climbing up a rugged mountain, he discovered the silhouette of a person.

Si-an, who suddenly encountered the man, could not help but stop in her tracks.

“… … .”

“… … .”

It was Cain.

As soon as their eyes met, the two recognized each other and froze like stone.

Si-an debated whether he should say hello or pretend not to see her, but there was no need.

It was because Cain passed by first, pretending not to see Sian.

Sian blankly watched Cain as he turned around and disappeared.

‘… I guess the lump hasn’t dissolved yet.’

I apologized last time, but of course there are no good feelings.

It was a short period of time for the bully to change his ways in just a few months, and there must have been some distrust.

but.

‘If I take good care of it, it will be forgotten.’

Sian had no more intention of causing trouble. He was not going to bother anyone, and he had no intention of having a wild party.

My goal is to survive the next four years… when the Demon King descends and graduate normally.

Once you have become strong enough to withstand threats and have a stable life, you will have the luxury of studying this world.

‘For now, let’s just practice the training.’

Cyan took a step forward.

.

.

.

.

‘I think this will suffice.’

From now on, Xi’an will be making new attempts to enter the 5-star rank.

It was an attempt to transform the body. It was called a complete body transformation.

‘From now on, I will attempt to turn my entire body into an aura. Normally, you would have to be a 6-star sword master to have an aura all over your body… .’

If you have enough body, even rare 5-star drones can become full-body auras.

Today, Sian decided to transform his body into that of those unmanned beings. It was a very risky attempt, but Sian was confident.

‘Now, here’s a way for him!’

In theory, in order to surround your entire body with an aura, you would need to pierce through the blood vessels of your entire body with a massive amount of magical power emanating from your high-density six-star danjeon.

‘That means, all we have to do is open up the blocked blood vessels.’

If you reach 6 stars through long-term, orthodox training, your blood will naturally be unclogged.

‘There’s not enough time for that.’

The Demon King will be resurrected four years from now. It would take several decades to reach 6 stars according to the rules, so there was not enough time.

‘That’s why I took out insurance.’

Sian has been in constant contact with the Night Crow, an undercover intelligence organization that has recently taken up residence in the tavern Luteo, and Stitch.

It was a favor to the Night Crow to send various information to Stitch about what kind of business would be beneficial.

Since he was a sharp observer of the world’s situation, he gave me information that I remembered little by little. It was easy.

‘This is one of the things I received in return.’

Cyan looked at what was in his hands.

It was a rare moment.

A wild elixir that increases magical power the moment you eat it. Cian ordered this from the night crow for today.

Cyan immediately sat down in a sitting position and poked himself in several places with his fingers.

-Thwack! Thwack! Thwack!

It was an act of blocking the blood spot.

Now, there was no magical energy flowing through the blood except around the dantian.

‘This amplifies the magical power.’

Si-an closed his eyes and swallowed the pill.

Then, something strange started happening in Si-an’s body.

-oooh… .

The magical power amplified by the spell vibrates within the body.

At the same time, a pain that felt like it was going to explode hit Xi’an all over his body.

If things continue like this, Xi’an’s dantian will crack and not be able to withstand the magical power released.

‘It goes to the point of being crushed!’

Time passes and passes, and before I know it, a minute has passed.

If you hold out any longer, your danjeon will break.

‘…just now!’

-Thwack! Thwack! Thwack!

Cian poked the blood spot that had been blocked with his finger again, returning it to its original state.

And that was when it happened.

-Two-hwa-ak! Kuuu!

The magical powers that had been locked up began to rapidly circulate within the body.

“Ugh… .”

Magic power runs wild. The pain that feels like it’s going to explode all over his body comes to Sian in a doubled manner.

If I let my guard down for even a moment, I would fall into a state of obsession.

… but, this is the plan.

Cian rolled his eyes and grabbed the sword on the floor in pain.

And instead of releasing the magical power rapidly flowing inside his body, he converted it all into aura.

-Cookies, cookies, cookies, cookies, cookies, cookies!

The rampant magical power is converted into an aura and emanates from the sword.

It was a much more ferocious, rough, and very large aura than usual. It was a side effect of a huge amount of magical power being displaced at once.

However, this level of release was not enough to prevent the runaway.

‘Emit an aura with your whole body!’

At that moment.

-Cookies, cookies, cookies, cookies, cookies, cookies!

An aura rose from all over Xi’an’s body.

Because of that, the blood in Xi’an’s body burst and flowed back repeatedly.

From noble mtl dot com

The pain that felt like my whole body was going to burst tripled.

‘Don’t lose your mind for even a moment! This moment is important!’

Cian took out another spell from his pocket. It was the second spell he had ordered from the Night Crow.

It was a rapid regeneration spell containing the divine power of the highest priest.

“Thump!”

The draft was swallowed right away.

The blood vessels burst and tore, unable to withstand the rampaging magic and aura, due to the effects of the spirit sword… .

Play it.

Exploding.

Play it.

It exploded… .

This was repeated for about five minutes.

This was the final step. If this continues, the blood will be reconstructed into a structure that can withstand the rampaging magic power. An act similar to evolution.

‘Even if I get surgery without anesthesia and suturing, it’ll hurt less than this, damn it!!!’

On the mountain where no one was, Sian screamed silently that day.

.

.

.

.

“Gasp, gasp… .”

“I came here in a hurry because I felt a strangely large magical reaction… Was it you, Confucius?”

Iris looked at Cyan with her eyes wide open, expressionless face.

Iris had a surprised expression on her face.

“What on earth have you done?”

“Iris… sir… please… give me some water… my throat… …”

“… … .”

… A faint aura flows out from Cyan’s entire body.

Yes, that’s right.

Not from the sword, but from the body.

Cyan’s body was steadily spewing out aura.
