The Lazy Genius of the Duke’s Family (72)

The sound of throwing ashes at someone else’s party (2)

Prince of Orange.

Castile and Orange.

He had been renowned as the greatest warrior in the duchy since childhood. However, since it was a duchy and not a kingdom or empire, his reputation was often belittled by others.

Then, in one incident, he proves that his talent is not just a rumor.

The rebellion of Count Palanbec, the greatest swordsman in the Duchy of Orange.

The shock was even greater because the Count of Palenbec’s family had been loyal to the Duchy of Orange for generations. Moreover, at the time, Count Palenbec was the best swordsman in the Duchy of Orange.

Top-notch expert.

The reason he rebelled, despite the expectations that if only 10 more years passed, the first Master of the principality might be born, was simple.

In the Duchy of Orange, where the strong are worshipped and martial arts are revered, why should he, as the strongest swordsman, be ruled by the Orange family?

So he revolted, and many of the houses of the Duchy of Orange, who were in sympathy with the Count of Phalanbec, actually rose up in arms to follow him.

But the advance of Count Palambec and the rebels was stopped by one man.

Castile and Orange.

Visheltii Swamp.

In the Visheltee Swamp, where mud rises up to the knees for more than 10 km, the advance of all cavalry is bound to be slow.

The marching speed was reduced by half, while the stamina consumed more than doubled. At that time, Castile Orange attacked the Count of Palambec with the knights of the House of Orange who followed him.

At that time, Crown Prince Orange announced to the entire continent that he had become the new swordsman of the duchy by attacking and killing Count Palanbec, who had reached the highest level of Expert at the age of thirty.

Top-notch expert.

Having reached the highest level of Mastery at the age of just thirty, he announced to the world that he had become the first Master of the Duchy by unleashing his Aura Blade at the new Duchy’s coronation ten years later, succeeding the previous king.

Because of this, he was given the nickname “The Return of King Bathystrife.”

“Do you understand?”

“Yes, more or less.”

To summarize what Professor Zaniolo had said at length, it was something like this. Benio felt his ear hole with his finger to see if there was any blood coming out of it, but fortunately, there was no blood.

‘You’re like a fanatic.’

Professor Zaniolo was a fanatic of the Prince of Orange. One question he asked about the person who invited him, which led to this.

[Who is His Highness the Prince of Orange?]

‘I never thought I’d hear such a long speech about this one question.’

But Benio also felt something when he saw Professor Zaniolo so respecting the Prince of Orange.

‘Is he the best monarch for the Orange Duchy that worships the gods?’

The story that the Duke of Orange is the most powerful in the Duchy is in some ways in line with the ideology of the Duchy of Orange. This is because it was one of the three duchies founded after King Batuu, and thus worshipped the military.

Looking at Professor Zaniolo, we can see that not only him, but also many of the duchy’s subjects are not only loyal but also reverent toward the duke.

‘It is said that the reason why the Duchy of Orange is the greatest of the three duchies is because of the existence of the Duke of Orange.’

All three duchies are duchies that branched off from King Batuu. However, since they are not from the same root, they are the closest, but they are also inevitably competitors of each other. It is said that the prosperity of the Duchy of Orange was the greatest among the three duchies due to the Duke of Orange.

Master.

Because the Duchy of Orange had a Master, but the other Duchys did not.

The existence of a Master has a great strategic advantage in itself, comparable to a strategic weapon, but on the other hand, it also plays a role in attracting talent.

Because the knights who worshipped the strong headed to the Duchy of Orange due to the fame of the Duke of Orange, the quality of talent was far superior to that of the other two duchies.

In any case, for one reason or another, the support of the people of the duchy for the Prince of Orange was sky-high.

“You don’t have to be so formal. She doesn’t like such formalities. More than anything, the reason you’ve called Cadet Benio today is probably because of Princess Cecil.”

“Is it because of Princess Cecil?”

“You have to hear it for yourself….”

The moment he heard those words, Benio felt a chill down his spine. He had a feeling that something difficult was about to happen.

“Surely not, the person the princess marries has to beat her and stuff….”

“No, how did you know?”

Zaniolo was startled, and Benio hit his forehead.

“What the heck! Princess, or Your Highness the Prince who permitted that, have you read too many novels?”

Among the things that were very popular among the noblewomen was the novel of chivalry. As the name suggests, it was a novel in which a knight was the main character, and the adventures of the knight were the main theme. And one thing that could not be left out of the adventures was the love story.

That too, mainly love with a princess.

This was the most common repertoire that appeared in it.

[Whoever defeats the princess will be allowed to marry her.]

But I never thought there would be a family that actually does that.

“Doesn’t Cadet Benio like Princess Cecil?”

wickedness.

At that moment, Zaniolo’s momentum changed. And the hairs on the back of Benio’s neck stood on end. It was because of the cold murderous intent he felt from Zaniolo at that moment.

‘The professor of counterintelligence is a spy himself.’

Benio had felt that way since he first saw Professor Zaniolo. Now, Professor Zaniolo has turned Benio’s guess into certainty.

“No, if there are such conditions, shouldn’t you have told me before we run into each other?”

Benio felt wronged in his own way. In the novel, people flock to such conditions. However, in reality, Benio did not want such a thing.

‘Marriage? Who wants to put a leash around someone’s neck?’

After achieving Benio’s original goal, Benio’s goal is to complete the martial arts to defeat the Heavenly Demon Emperor and then go into the world of martial arts to seek revenge.

There was no one with whom I had to promise to marry and live with for the rest of my life.

Just as I came from the martial arts world to this place, I have to go back to the martial arts world again, so how can I start a family?

“That, that’s it. Princess Cecil has no rivals….”

“Ha, I see. Princess Cecil must have said she doesn’t like political marriages.”

“His Majesty had no intention of sending the princess. It was simply because the princess had ignored one of the agenda items brought up at the meeting….”

“….”

In the end, it is said that this incident happened because everyone in the duchy was supporting Cecil. Benio spoke firmly to Professor Zaniolo.

“I have no intention of marrying anyone yet. You should know that.”

“….”

Coming soon.

At that moment the carriage stopped. It had reached the residence of the Duke of Orange. Since the Duke had given his villa to the Academies, he was using the official residence of the mayor of Pyleus instead.

Rattling.

“Welcome to the Market Hall. Are you Cadet Benio of Jupiter Academy?”

The servants opened the carriage door, and the one who appeared to be the chief chamberlain smiled kindly at Benio.

“Yes, that’s right.”

“I will guide you.”

“I, Count Gunther.”

At that moment, Professor Zaniolo poked his head out from inside and spoke to the chamberlain. Most of the chamberlains who are qualified to serve the king are of noble rank.

The chamberlain, called Count Gunther, looked at Zaniolo with a kind face.

“Yes, professor.”

“It seems that Your Majesty has misunderstood. So, I will first contact Your Majesty and then….”

Benio tilted his head, because he did not understand what he was saying. However, the chief steward who was listening to him cut off Professor Zaniolo with a gentle smile.

“I am sorry, Professor, but His Majesty’s will is not for people like us to judge.”

“Oh, no.”

“If it is wrong, His Majesty will correct it, and if it is right, then just do as His Majesty has told you in advance, so it is not for people like us to judge.”

Professor Zaniolo kept his mouth shut at the chief steward’s words. He sighed softly as he watched Benio get out of the carriage.

[Be careful.]

All he can do is use his mana to transmit sounds secretly. Benio looks at him, startled by the sound, but the door of the carriage he rode in closes.

“I will guide you.”

The chamberlain took the lead and guided Benio inside. Benio looked at the quiet residence and thought about what Professor Zaniolo meant by his words.

‘What does it mean? And what does it mean to be careful of?’

Through the conversation with Zaniolo, it became clear that Cecil was a very beloved princess. She was so popular that everyone in the duchy was adoring her.

And Benio defeated Cecil like that.

That means Benio is a candidate to be Cecil’s husband. And Cecil is a princess whom everyone who reveres the Duke cherishes.

A daughter who is so precious that she wouldn’t mind putting it in her eyes has brought home a son-in-law. So what will her capable father do?

Damn it.

Stop.

Benio stopped walking. Then the chamberlain turned to look at Benio and tilted his head.

“Why are you stopping there?”

Benio glanced around. The surroundings were extremely quiet. It could be said that it was because of the Duke, but as he paid attention, a sense of discomfort began to creep into Benio’s senses.

“It looks like there’s no one here.”

“His Majesty dislikes formalities, so we keep our attendants to a minimum.”

“Really? But.”

Benio lifted his finger. And at the tip of his finger, an invisible thread came up. And at the tip, a net was hidden very exquisitely.

“What is this?”

Then the attendant’s expression changed.

“I got caught, hit me!”

Pavababak!

With a single word from the chief steward, those who had been lying in wait around Benio suddenly appeared. They were the ones who had been hiding their presence and energy on the walls, ceilings, floors, and behind decorations.

Benio stepped back and raised his bare hands.

“You said it was an invitation from His Majesty the King, but was it something like this?”

“We will decide if you are worthy of being Princess Cecil’s companion! Yayayaya!”

Those disguised as servants along with the chamberlain rushed towards Benio. While Benio was bare-handed, they were all holding clubs that would swell up and turn blue if they were hit.

Phew!

The club’s cutting power was sharp. Judging from their quick movements and their lack of hesitation in swinging the club, they seemed to be used to this kind of work.

Kkukkuk.

At that moment, Benio clenched his fist. Then, he stretched his fist out towards the servant rushing in front of him and filled his fist with the Guyangshinkong.

What a mess!

Stabbing the regime.

It’s just a basic attack that isn’t much of a special attack, but the moment it’s filled with aura, it’s no longer just an attack.

Hot.

At the same time, Benio’s hand grabbed the servant’s collar who was rushing at him. Then, Benio pushed the servant back and started running down the hallway.

Pavabak!

As he walked along the island, Benio broke through the encirclement in an instant. The servants’ eyes widened as they watched Benio break through the encirclement with a gust of wind.

But Benio did not rush towards such servants.

Pop, pop!

Instead, he stepped on the window frame and the wall and flew into the air. With that, Benio’s hand turned into a pitchfork. It was the Shaolin Dragon Assistant.

Crash!

A bat got caught on the tip of Benio’s finger. Without even screaming, the bat turned into a clump of blood and fell down. Then, the mana that had been faintly felt disappeared.

A bat that uses familiar magic.

This means that there was someone watching this in real time. It must have been the Duke of Orange. However, it was his mistake not to know that Benio’s tangible skill was to turn the tables.

chuck.

Benio flipped over and landed on the ground like a cat. But he raised his fist as if he was not finished yet, looking at the servants.

“Whew, now that the sight is gone, let’s get started for real, everyone.”

You may start it, but you cannot finish it. Benio’s new form became a ray of light and penetrated into the servants.
