Chapter 73

‘Why is this suddenly appearing?’

Although I instinctively blocked the sword attack, I was startled inwardly.

It was because he did not expect that the prince of the Bertos Empire would come out of Riverrun’s secret skill.

It wasn’t just the swordsmanship, it was a real Dancheonghwa sword that had perfectly mastered the Lun practice method.

Damn it!

‘Keugh!’

It was said to be one second, but the power of Dancheon Ilseom was enormous.

“Huh? Can you stop that?”

As he forcibly deflected the Dancheonghwa Sword, Franz let out a low exclamation as if unexpected.

‘No, this bastard?’

Am I helping with this?

Of course, I didn’t invent it, but Riverrun’s next head of household was originally me.

To see someone else’s clan secretly cast and be proud of themselves.

I can’t see you because my eyes are fierce.

Seeing the dancheonguhwasword spread out from the stern man’s hand, I felt my stomach twist for some reason.

Actually, my anger was not directed at the second prince.

It was just that the situation of the family that had reached this point was deplorable.

“It was originally a gift for Ellington, but I didn’t expect you to receive it.”

“Did you hide a move too?”

“Of course. Who is going to do everything like an idiot?”

The 2nd Prince slowly turned his sword and pointed at me.

Apparently, during the mission to subdue the Physics tribe, it felt like pinching everything I had eaten.

‘Wow! At that time, you can see that the guy who couldn’t do anything because he was scared changed his attitude.’

I looked at him with ridiculous eyes, but Franz didn’t seem to know the meaning of my gaze at all.

I’m just enjoying the moment I’ve won.

“I understand that Ellington used a blue sword. But what is it?”

I pretended not to know anything and tried asking questions.

While deliberately showing off that he knew well about the divine warrior Myrden’s blue dagger.

Then, the 2nd prince raised his chin as if he was surprised and replied.

“For a beginner in swordsmanship, you know a lot. Whoa! Even so, you won’t know the origins of this swordsmanship.”

No, at least I know a lot better than you do.

I shrugged lightly, resisting the urge to punch Franz in the face.

‘yes. You are all right. So, stop talking nonsense and tell me how you learned it.’

Well, in that sense, it was a gesture.

Sure enough, the second prince tried to reveal something as I had intended.

“Long ago, the continent was ruled…”

However, the second prince suddenly stopped talking and glanced back at the VIP seat.

Isn’t it then that he suddenly shuts his mouth?

‘No, where do I end up!’

I shouted that inwardly, but Franz immediately changed the subject.

“I don’t think you need to know. If you come under my command and become loyal, maybe I can tell you?”

and! this filthy child.

It made me curious and cut it off in the middle.

There was no doubt that it was a demon who had trained cutting magic for a long time.

I spat out curse words in my heart, and raised my sword, and my brain shuddered.

“It’s not a very attractive proposal.”

“If you experience this swordsmanship properly, you will change your mind. Haa!”

Quaching-! Damn it!

The 2nd prince spread the Dancheonguhwa sword and applied pressure in all directions.

At first, it was only cast for 1 second, but it was gradually progressing to the next level.

The Dancheon meteor that literally turns the front into a honeycomb.

It was very difficult to block, so it was a herbivore that I used to enjoy in my previous life.

Pooh-! Whoop whoop!

The blue flash fired from Franz’s sword blade left two tails in the air.

The flock of lights that flew in exploded with white light… … .

Whoa!

I tried to do it, but with a roar, I was thrust into the ground and stuck.

It’s just a quick blow before it explodes.

‘It’s obvious, but there’s no way it won’t get in the way?’

Dancheon meteor was the weakest timing right before it was activated.

It wasn’t that difficult to destroy it, as long as you hit it at that time.

So, the masters of Riverrun tried to compensate for their weaknesses in various ways.

Either by blowing it up in advance, or by hiding another Dancheon meteor behind the halo.

However, there was no way that a guy who had just learned Dancheonguhwa Sword would know that.

“her…….”

The second prince looked slightly shocked.

It seemed that he never dreamed that the blow of conversion would be shattered so easily.

In addition, Dancheon Meteor is one of the herbivores that consumes a lot of aura.

Even after spending that much effort, it was all in vain, so I felt a sense of desolation.

‘But isn’t it time to be like that?’

There is always a risk of failure with great technology.

Besides, this was the moment when the gaps were bound to be revealed the most.

Shh-! Kang! Fuck!

“Ugh!”

In the middle of Jeeumswaegeom, when the 2 second ceremony was extremely cold, the follow-up hit worked properly.

Even though he learned the same swordsmanship more deeply, Franz could not completely block the swordsman.

‘Because I’m in such a stupid state, I get hit even if I know.’

I laughed at that guy to the fullest and started pouring waves of attacks.

Kaga River! Cagan!

It was true that my opponent could use stronger skills than me.

But what if you make it impossible to even try?

The 2nd prince couldn’t stop at all in the close-knit swordsmanship.

It was because I, who had the chance to win, pushed ahead without giving any room.

Kwajik! Puff!

“Heuk!”

Before long, Franz staggered like a drunk and allowed a few more sword strikes.

My intention to kill him had been properly worked.

However, the opponent is also a guy who has been practicing the sword for quite some time.

‘It’s not over until it’s over.’

I did not let go of my concentration until the very end.

Sure enough, wasn’t something sparkling pouring out of the 2nd prince’s staggered waist?

Push profit!

A blue flash burst out with a sound like steam escaping.

Enormous energy ejected from the sword electrode cut through the air.

‘This… … . It’s a perfect short lunar eclipse.’

Until now, I thought it was possible to study on my own to some extent.

If it was Franz’s talent, he could have spread it based on his rank.

However, the moment I saw the 3-second ceremony of the Dancheongu Flower Sword, the doubt that had been wriggling somewhere in my mind reared its head.

It was now clear that the survivors of Riverrun were by the side of the second prince.

‘Because it’s not as easy as it sounds.’

Of course, it wasn’t difficult to dodge, perhaps because I was still lacking in proficiency.

The guy simply implemented the Dancheon Lunar Eclipse, but he couldn’t complete the optimal sword path.

You have to draw diagonally up to get it right. this is the word

Tadat! Ssuk!

“Now, wait a minute…”

As I evaded the blue flash and approached quickly, Franz hurriedly tried to shout.

It was a situation where the Dancheon meteor and the Dancheon lunar eclipse were continuously unfolded.

It was a high-level swordsmanship that he was not familiar with.

There was no way his physical condition was normal.

‘Where are you going to abstain in a mean way?’

Seeing through the second prince’s heart, I violently swung my sword.

puck! Puff!

“Ugh, whoops!”

Maybe because I didn’t inject an aura, it sounded like a drum exploding.

I defeated Franz mercilessly.

Until the referee realized the seriousness of the situation and ran to stop it.

‘You son of a thief!’

Of course, I had no intention of stopping.

It’s the price you learned by stealing the family’s swordsmanship!

After the finals, the stadium, which had become a mess, was soon cleaned up.

However, the strange excitement following the unexpected result did not subside.

In particular, a group of aristocrats in the capital under the command of the 2nd prince looked at me as if I had become some sort of traitor.

‘so what? If I twist it, I win.’

Of course, the envy of those guys didn’t stick to me in the slightest.

“From now on, there will be an appointment ceremony for the student body president. Ray Carter, the winner of the contest, please come up to the podium.”

Senior assistant Godard, who had been in charge of refereeing so far, transformed into a moderator to calm the cluttered atmosphere.

When the awards ceremony and appointment ceremony began, the eyes toward me were only then withdrawn.

It was because the empress had come up on the podium.

Accepting the trophy and badge from the dean of the Knights Faculty, she smiled lightly.

The trophy was in the form of an upside-down golden sword, and looked quite heavy.

“I saw Ray Carter’s excellent skills. I hope that he will continue to devote himself to raising the prestige of our school.”

“Thank you, Empress.”

I naturally greeted you according to the imperial etiquette.

Then the empress’s eyebrows lifted slightly.

I never thought that a mere merchant’s son could learn such perfect etiquette.

Suddenly, her eyes were filled with interest.

‘Is it difficult to see me as a man? What’s the age difference?’

I laughed at myself and laughed at myself.

Marie Méliès put an insignia on my arm.

As soon as I held the heavy trophy in my hand, my smile naturally deepened.

‘It’s pure gold!’

Of course, I was excited to sell it.

Soon after, the ceremony was continued by Chief Assistant Professor Godard.

“Next, the student council president’s inaugural address will be given.”

I slightly bowed my head toward the empress, then turned around and stared at the students.

‘Oh oh! Seeing it from above, it feels like something is in control.’

Just in time, a cool breeze blew and shook the insignia on my left arm once.

“It’s a bit embarrassing to say the inaugural speech right after winning the preliminary round. I understand your concerns. You must be worried since a half-bastard sits in the student council president’s seat.”

Was that too frank?

As if they had hit the mark, some of the students’ eyes turned toward the distant mountains for no reason.

At their reaction, I said with a meaningful smile.

“In order to dispel such concerns, I plan to appoint His Highnesses as vice presidents. With this measure, wouldn’t it be possible to gain the trust of the students?”

Almost immediately, a positive voice came out.

“That’s the right decision. If you can’t hand over the student council president, then you should.”

“Anyway, the 2nd and 3rd place were taken by the princes, so there will be no disagreement at all.”

“Maybe he’s surprisingly trustworthy?”

As public opinion improved, I nodded and tried to continue my inaugural address.

“Now that I’ve become the student council president, I’ll make good use of the vice presidents… No, I’ll work closely with them to lead the student council well.”

I paused here for a moment and glanced around at the VIP seat.

Then, I saw Kairam’s pensive face on his forehead.

“Ha! That guy can’t break his habit again…”
