The Second Son of the Count Is Too Good - The Second Son of the Count Is Too Good chapter 70

Luke narrowed his eyes and looked at Marius.

“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

“Hmm, that explanation wasn’t enough.”

Marius shrugged his shoulders as if he understood everything and sat down on his chair.

“How much did you hear from that guy?”

“Even the fact that he lost his place to his uncle in the race for the successor and ended up here in exile.”

“What about being taken away, that was a legitimate succession. Looking at the situation… … .”

“Only the point.”

Marius, who was about to talk in full swing, was again blocked by Luke. Marius glanced at Luke and got to the point.

“The Viscount wants him gone.”

“Are you saying that viscount is Bjorn’s uncle?”

“Why not?”

“Why did you leave it alone until now?”

“You really had no choice but to leave it alone.”

Although the usurpation was successful, Bjorn’s supporters still remained. Rather, the number of pure supporters would be greater than that of the Viscount.

The reason why the viscount occupied the position of head of household was because the power he possessed always prevailed. And it was thanks to Bjorn’s willingness to give up his seat.

“In other words, the moment he changes his mind, a civil war breaks out. It’s not really scary.”

“Right.”

“Right? Is that the only impression? Because it’s a civil war.”

A lot of people die, so why do you criticize them for such an attitude? Luke laughed at the odd trick.

“People who are so concerned about the civil war are good at provocations. Wouldn’t it be nice to be a little more courteous to prevent a civil war?”

“hehehehe! ”

Marius cleared his throat and looked elsewhere. It can’t be said that he intended to catch the pod if he showed signs of deliberately provoking and rebelling.

“Anyway, I want your cooperation to prevent a civil war.”

“So, under the guise of a duel, do you want me to kill Bjorn?”

“Not pretending to be a duel, but to kill in a fair duel! A fair duel!”

Again and again, Marius emphasized ‘just’. It’s just blindfolded and it’s just ah, but how honor is overturned with one word like this.

Luke pretended to be worried for a while before opening his mouth.

“What if I refuse?”

“You’d better not.”

“Is it a threat? How dare you Bernstein?”

“Even the most fearsome dragon is useless if it can’t leave its nest.”

The corners of Marius’ lips went up.

“This is the northern end. Do you know how many territories you must pass through to get here from the East? Among them is the estate of His Excellency, Marquis Hermod.”

Of course, no lord likes to see troops pass through his territory. I don’t know what damage will happen in the process.

If it was a weak lord, he wouldn’t be able to say that, but if he was a marquis, the situation would be different.

“And it doesn’t do any harm. I just want to spread some bad rumors.”

“A bad rumor?”

“For example, an ascetic knight plundering and eating together with barbarians. You can create anything you want to create.”

In other words, if you refuse, you will tarnish the name of the training knight. It’s a nasty but effective revenge.

Because the training knight itself is a journey to gain honor. Once your name is tarnished, all your hard work will be in vain.

“Now, what are you going to do? Of course the great red dragon will fight for justice, right?”

“under.”

Luke burst out laughing at his generous voice. The look on my face, as if I had won, was genuinely laughable.

‘He’s like an idiot.’

Luke has seen this type many times. Folks who happened to taste the crumbs of real power after only living on the corner.

These guys, when they see the situation going around next to those in power, boast that they have mastered politics too.

‘It’s not even funny.’

The countermeasure against these idiots was simple. waking you up from a dream.

“Did you say Marius Greve?”

“exactly.”

“I request a duel.”

Marius’ face darkened. He looked like he was wondering if he had heard it wrong.

“What did you say?”

“I request a duel.”

“Me, not me!”

“You are right. I’m applying to you, not Bjorn.”

“why not… … !”

“Because you insulted me in an inappropriate manner.”

Marius trembled at the lifeless eyes. Even an idiot could tell that he had no intention of saving the moment of a duel.

“I refuse! There is no duel!”

“Then I’ll just kill you unilaterally.”

When the blade was pulled out, the blood drained from Marius’ face. Marius stood up and took a step back.

“Hey, look.”

“If you want to resist and die, pull out your sword.”

“I, I was wrong. so… … !”

“The sword flies. Whoa!”

“aaagh!”

As Luke sneakily held out his sword, Marius’ body fell over with a crackling sound. He hurriedly opened the door and ran away, screaming.

“Hey, is anyone there!”

“What are you doing!?”

“Assassin! protect me! hurry!”

The soldiers waiting outside quickly rushed into the inn. The soldiers as well as Bjorn’s subordinates were frightened.

What the hell is this? As if to answer that question, Luke came down from the second floor.

“Why are you running away from a duel? Come here.”

“Such a madman!”

Marius slipped behind the soldiers and pointed at Luke.

“Kill him!”

“yes? But that article… … .”

From noble mtl dot com

“Shut up and kill me!”

It’s the Bernstein family, it’s Nabal, it doesn’t matter anymore. Shouldn’t you live and see for yourself?

Luke opened his mouth as he watched the soldiers rushing in with their spears.

“Ray, Bruno.”

“Yes, lord.”

“Do it.”

* * *

“Kreak… … !”

The last soldier collapsed with the sound of boiling blood. Marius stomped on the floor and backed away with a pale face.

It wasn’t even time for two sips of tea until all the bodyguards had been annihilated.

“hey.”

“Hey!”

As soon as Luke spoke, Marius screamed and stepped back. But soon my back hit the inn wall.

A state where there is no further retreat. Luke drew his sword and slowly approached.

“What are you going to say before you die?”

“Save, save, save… … !”

“It’s ugly.”

Luke’s sword was about to be swung. Tuck, Bjorn grabbed Luke’s hand.

“Stop it.”

“… … .”

Slightly, Luke’s gaze turned to Bjorn. Bjorn was glaring at Luke with a distorted face.

“Why are you so dead?”

“Damn it, I don’t know, ask me? Thanks to you, only I have a headache.”

Bjorn scratched his head and looked at the bloody inn floor.

“I know my uncle wants my head. That’s why I didn’t give you an excuse as much as possible.”

Now the pod is caught because of you. The back story about how to take responsibility now was omitted.

Luke looked at Bjorn and clicked his tongue.

“Do you know what this guy said to me?”

“I must have insulted you! Because he’s always been a good-mouthed guy!”

“Yes, he ordered the assassination to kill you in a duel.”

Bjorn’s eyes shook violently. I felt the strength drain from the hand that was holding Luke.

Luke’s sword tip pointed back at Marius, who half frothed and shouted.

“please! Please save me!”

“What if you don’t like it?”

“Rain, Sir Bjorn! What do you do without blocking! You know what will happen when I die!”

When the seed didn’t work, Marius appealed to Bjorn. Bjorn, who had been silent for a moment, sighed.

“Please save me.”

“I am not your subordinate.”

“Please.”

Bjorn fell to his knees with a loud bang. His pride, which had not been broken even after being beaten to death, was now so easily broken.

“If he dies, my uncle will probably attack here.”

“… … .”

“So please don’t kill him. I will do anything for you.”

It was not a funny sight. He is praying for the assassination target to save the guy who ordered his assassination.

Marius, who regained his strength a little, shouted at Luke who narrowed his brows.

“Did you hear? If you kill me… … !”

“Shut up.”

I’m sorry.

“f*ck!”

Before he could say anything, the sheath struck Marius in the mouth. As his white teeth spilled out, Marius groaned and twisted his body.

The pain rising up in my mouth gave me the momentum to rise again.

“I beg you, sleep and kill me here?”

“Ugh, black! Buy it, buy it!”

Marius clung to him with tears in his eyes. After looking at Bjorn for a moment, Luke opened his mouth.

“go away.”

“Go, thank you! Thank you!”

The guy, who lowered his head with a strange pronunciation, quickly slipped out of the inn. When the situation was over, Bjorn rose from his seat.

“Thank you. For not killing me.”

“A sick bastard.”

Bjorn was taken aback. There was contempt in Luke’s eyes. It was contempt for Bjorn, not for Marius.

“thank you? What are you thankful for? Thank you for saving the man who tried to kill you?”

“… exactly.”

“Are you saying that now?”

“It can’t be helped.”

Bjorn lowered his head and bit his lip.

“It’s something I just have to be patient with. I cannot let others die.”

“Did they say they wanted to live even if it meant sacrificing you?”

“what?”

“Honor does not belong only to the nobility.”

After saying that, Luke turned around. He was a stubborn fool, still drunk on his own sacrifice.

But that was over now. Luke has touched Marius, so the signal will come soon.

* * *

For two days after that day, Luke and his party did not come out of the room. There was no confrontation. Bjorn also kept his mouth shut.

There was no conversation, just food. And on the second night, Bjorn spoke to Luke.

“The barbarians are coming.”

“It looks like that.”

Luke stared at the twinkling torch in the distance. There were about a hundred warriors wrapped in thick leather and tattooed.

Seeing him openly revealing himself, it seemed that he intended to collide head-on.

‘He doesn’t betray expectations.’

Assuming that Marius ran away and reported right away, it was just the right time to arrive. He probably would have gone mad as soon as he returned.

“Can you help me?”

“Is it all our fault?”

“No, because you guys are strong.”

Bjorn stared at Ray and Bruno behind Luke. Luke was also a rare talent.

Bjorn, who has been beaten many times, knows best.

‘But those two are on a different level.’

Two knights of unhuman strength. If you just join us, you can greatly reduce the sacrifice of your subordinates.

Maybe nobody dies. Bjorn, who swallowed saliva, bent his knees and opened his mouth.

“Please. If you want something… … .”

pug.

“Oh!?”

Bjorn, who was about to kneel, stumbled. It was because of Luke’s thigh kick.

“What are you doing!?”

“Don’t get down on your knees.”

“what… … ?”

“I’ll help you, so get ready.”

Luke clicked his tongue and stood up. When Ray and Bruno stood up after them, Bjorn’s face brightened.

“Thank you! Thank you so much!”

“noisy.”

It was the moment Luke opened the inn door with an expression of disapproval. Everyone in Falun gathered in front of the inn to watch Luke coming out.

As Luke came out, whispers were heard from all directions.

“It’s out!”

“That man beat that unlucky bastard?”

“I knew that from the moment I confronted the young master!”

Bjorn’s body froze at the murmur. From the point of view of the people staying in Falun, Luke and his party are the cause of all of this.

It wouldn’t be strange if all the resentments were directed at Luke.

‘It’s a big deal!’

I had to intervene somehow before things escalated. The moment Bjorn was about to step out among the villagers in a hurry.

-Wow!

The villagers burst into cheers for Luke.
