Chapter 102

Episode 102

: The Mercenary King didn’t ask me until the end.

I was quite upset that my doctor seemed like there was no need for it.

I didn’t know that if I refused, I would have to persuade Count Baeknal and it would be a big deal.

I still didn’t like the mercenary king who was talking loudly.

“How long are you two going to talk together?”

Not even 1 or 2 minutes. You sit down and have a conversation between the two of you for over 10 minutes.

No progress has been made.

Same pattern.

The mercenary king asks for me, and the count refuses.

The two of us ate for a whopping 10 minutes without even thinking about asking.

I felt quite bad thinking that I wasted my time on something so useless.

“Hmm…”

The Count looks back at me.

He must have read the emotions on my face and made a face that seemed like it was a mistake.

“The point was wrong from the beginning. “You should have asked Raymond for permission rather than me.”

“….”

Only then did the Mercenary King look back at me with his mouth shut, perhaps realizing his mistake.

I folded my arms and watched how long he would talk.

Now I can’t stand it any longer and I’m leaving.

“Uh… Raymond.”

“why.”

“How about becoming my successor?”

“I don’t like it.”

I don’t want to work under someone who hasn’t shown any good side to me.

And I knew something about him.

Are you a crazy person or a mad dog?

In the first place, the word rabid dog he said was a nickname that suited him better than me.

‘The mercenary king’s things don’t help me.’

The mercenary king does not use a sword.

He believed that there was no weapon stronger than his own body, so he always believed in his fists.

What can I learn from him?

I use a sword and he doesn’t use a sword.

If there’s anything that helps, it’s sparring.

Being under him meant giving up the sword, but there was no way I would give up the sword, knowing that I was talented with the sword.

“Why are you refusing? Do you not know who I am? Probably not. “There is no way he doesn’t know that I am the mercenary king.”

He must have been embarrassed and started talking gibberish.

It was a face I never thought I would reject so coldly.

“It doesn’t matter if you are the mercenary king or anything. “I have no intention of becoming a successor.”

The Mercenary King opened his mouth and looked back at the Count.

He was smiling in satisfaction as if this situation was fun.

Who would have imagined that the mercenary king would reject the offer to become his successor?

There was no one who could refuse it, at least not a wizard.

Even a child knows that the mercenary king is a sword master.

The knights are so great that it is said that their dream is to be taught by a sword master.

It’s good to spar with him and learn from him.

No matter how different a fist and a sword are, they still have one thing in common: martial arts.

‘There’s no reason to just do it.’

Looking at the situation going on.

The Mercenary King really wants to make me his successor.

But I have no intention of becoming a successor.

Above all, there is no reason to become his successor.

As the Count said, you can learn from Count Warrug.

At least it was possible for someone with the name Millennium.

So there is no reason to assume that the Mercenary King is a Sword Master.

“Why on earth! “I’m a sword master?”

“So?”

“what?”

“Is there any reason why I should learn from you just because you are a sword master?”

“You can become so strong!”

I made a sullen expression on his face as he asked if this was enough.

You can become stronger.

For me, who had the goal of surviving Ahar, it was definitely a temptation.

Just a little bit.

“I have no reason to learn from you. Just like my father said, I can learn from Count Warrug.”

“This profit…!”

The Mercenary King’s face turned red at the mention of Count Warrug again.

He clenched his fists and waved them wildly in the air, as if he had some sense of entitlement.

Even though it was an aimless punch, the sound it made was very threatening.

“I’ll do better! uh? I can do better! Is there anything you want? “I’ll listen to anything!”

He shouldn’t have said that.

I don’t use the word ‘anything’ carelessly.

That’s a really nice thing to say.

“Are you serious about that?”

“of course!”

He answered very brightly because he didn’t know what I was thinking.

“Then let me think about it a little.”

“Raymond…”

I heard the Count mutter my name.

“Why do you want to make me your successor?”

“I fell in love with your fighting style. I think you can follow my training. I have only you. How hard did I try to find a successor? “But there was no one I liked like you.”

“….”

I felt too much passion.

He wants to catch me no matter what.

So it was burdensome, but on the contrary, I liked it.

If you want me this much, you will do most of what I ask of you.

“Do I have to be the successor?”

“uh?”

“Even if you’re not the successor, can’t you still receive teachings?”

“Uh… Is that right? “But since I’m teaching you my skills, it’ll be a bit difficult if you’re not the successor.”

“Then how about finding the successor later?”

“what?”

“Even if you like it, it might change after you actually do it, right? Seriously, what are you going to do if I don’t learn the skill properly?”

“That’s a bit troublesome.”

The Mercenary King nods his head with his arms crossed.

Sometimes I frowned, probably imagining it.

“And to be honest, there is no reason for me to learn from you. “You admit that.”

“That’s right.”

Count Warrug.

He frowned openly, as if he was irritated just thinking about him.

He even muttered quietly, ‘You look like damn Bane.’

“I heard that the Mercenary King obtained a lot of gems this time.”

“Oh, jewels?”

The Mercenary King rummaged through the pockets on his waist and placed the entire small pouch on the table.

“You take that.”

“….”

What is this guy?

You haven’t even asked for any money yet, but you’re giving away everything you have.

Well, there are all these idiots.

“Are you giving me all of this?”

“Uh… it doesn’t really matter if I give it all. “I don’t need money, it’s just a shining stone to me.”

I listened to his words with one ear and let them flow out of the other, and I opened my pocket.

It sparkled.

And there were a lot of them.

‘You’re giving me all this?’

It contained such a huge amount of jewels that I was embarrassed to even mention it.

At this rate, buying a small or medium-sized city would not be a dream.

“Huh… I knew you didn’t have any material desires.”

I didn’t know it would be like this. The Count glanced into his pocket and muttered.

In his opinion, the amount of jewels was ridiculously large.

However, it was not a priceless gem.

Among them, a diamond as big as a fist was seen.

‘If this happens, you can’t even take it out.’

The amount was too large to return this amount.

There is so much you can do with this.

“Of course, I think the successor was a bit like that. “It’s called Millennium.”

Even a passing dog knows that I am the heir to the Millennium family.

It’s strange that you recommend me as a successor.

“Oh, I don’t know. “This kind of troublesome thing is not my style!”

The Mercenary King suddenly scratched his head and shouted.

Then he pointed his finger at me and said.

“Because heir or anything like that doesn’t matter. You should train with me. “It is a sin to destroy such talent!”

“All right.”

“uh…?”

“I understand.”

“Uh uh.”

He made a stupid face as if he didn’t know if I would accept it right away.

There was no reason to refuse further here.

I guess I got bail, but it’s not like I’m under him.

More than anything, I needed someone to spar with right now.

“Well, now that we’re done talking, let’s go to the training ground right away! Hey Gerard, where is the training ground here?”

“…That’s annoying. Raymond, now you take care of it. “I don’t want to interfere any more.”

The count put one hand on his head and waved his hand, telling me to get out.

Ever since the mercenary king came, he looked very tired.

“good. “Let’s go out!”

The Mercenary King stood up and put his arm around my shoulder.

He slapped the hand away, picked up his pockets, and stood up.

“I will take this with me.”

“Okay. “That is what you have earned.”

The Count waved his hand as if it didn’t matter.

When I went outside, I saw Mahol standing still.

“Take this.”

“yes.”

Mahol took the bag. Passing by Mahol, I took the mercenary king and headed to the training ground used by the knights.

“See you, Master.”

The knights bowed their heads and welcomed me.

“Young Master, are you here!”

The knight commander approached with sparkling eyes.

His face was full of anticipation and emotion, as if he had heard of my appearance in the north.

“ah. Sir Raymond.”

But why is the princess here?

Isn’t it time to take care of the flowers by now?

“Oh, who is this? “Aren’t you the first princess?”

The mercenary king raised his voice as he looked at the princess.

It was an amazing sight to be able to see the first princess in a place like this.

“Ah, you are the mercenary king. hello.”

“Oh, there’s no need to be so polite. Please treat me comfortably.”

“All right.”

The princess smiled.

It also approached me for a moment and spoke to me.

“Are you going to train today too?”

“no. “I’m going to spar with this person here.”

“With the mercenary king?”

The princess’s eyes widened.

I was surprised that I was able to spar with the sword master, the Mercenary King.

“uh? “You said you were sparring with the Mercenary King right now, right?”

“I guess it’s because my ears don’t taste good.”

“Wow, I’m jealous. “I also want to spar with the Mercenary King.”

The knights looked at me with eyes full of envy.

“Did you hear? “I’m sorry, but could you please leave my seat for a moment while I’m training?”

“yes!”

The knights moved in perfect order.

By creating a space in the middle of the training ground, I created enough space for me and the Mercenary King to spar.

“Are you going to be okay?”

“yes. Rather, sparring with a sword master helps me a lot.”

“is that so.”

The princess nods.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Let’s go.”

“Can we finally taste Raymond’s skills?”

The Mercenary King grinned and moved to the middle of the training ground.

Bone sounds come out of his joints as he loosens his ankles and wrists.

As I took the wooden sword from the knights, the Mercenary King shook his head and pointed to my waist.

“Not the wooden sword, that one. There’s a sword that looks good. Fight with it.”

“It’s Jingeom.”

“I am the mercenary king.”

He was the king of mercenaries. I immediately agreed with that one word.

He is a sword master.

Rather, I should have been worried about myself dealing with him, but worrying about him was conceited.

When I pulled out the sword, he let out an exclamation of admiration as he looked at the sword in my hand.

“Hoo. It is a famous sword that is not easily seen. “What’s your name?”

“doesn’t exist.”

“I dont have a name?”

“yes. “I picked it up by accident.”

“Really? Well, I guess that’s what it is.”

He bumped his fists together, saying it doesn’t matter anything.

“Well then, come in!”

He spread his feet apart and gestured towards me.
