CH 1

Duke, Please Repent! chapter 1

0. Prologue

'Oh, I don't want to go to work.'

I sighed and looked up at the huge iron gate in front of me.

What's going on?

Was it because I was restless for a long time in front of the mansion to decide whether to go in or not?

The soldier guarding the front door was alert and spoke to me.

From today, I will serve as the Duke's assistant.

It's called Zion Rivelon.

A questionable expression that almost sounds like you're going to shout, 'You're suspicious!'

I took out the access card and appointment letter that arrived in the mail a few days ago from my pocket, handed it to him, and responded quickly.

Come to think of it .

The soldier who muttered to himself confirmed whether he had heard of my arrival in advance, and checked the certificate and the letter of appointment.

After checking the contents, he returned them with a smile with a relaxed expression on his face.

Haha, I was very nervous because it was my first day at work.

Let's go. But don't worry, Prince Prasidus is a very kind and gentle man!

"Ah haha. That's right. Yes "

You don't have to be so nervous!

Despite my shaky answer, the soldier didn't care, and said as if he was pushing his back with a friendly face.

In the end, I trudged forward, feeling like a cow being dragged to the slaughterhouse.

The Duchess of Phra Sidus, whom I have to serve from today, was one of the only two Duchess of the Holy Lumen Empire.

Among them, the people of the duke of Prasidus were particularly hardened by strong divine powers.

'Thank you for producing so many cardinals or something?'

The person I will serve was born with a strong divine power that is hard to find even in such a family.

Serpens A. Prasidus.

This is the name of the person I will be serving in the future.

I put it in my mouth to strengthen my resolve, but on the contrary, I lost more energy.

Serpens was strict with himself, but thought he would be kind to others.

He is known as a devout believer who always follows the will of the Goddess because his faith is deep as well as his enormous divine power.

He was very considerate of his subordinates, and he never got angry or wielded his power.

Even his own work ability is very good, and he is famous for not overloading himself because he handles most of the work himself.

For this reason, when I asked the people of the empire who they wanted to have as their boss, anyone would give him his name.

I have been appointed as an assistant to such a person.

some,

"He pays a lot of money, works little, and is a good boss!"

, and you will think that it is not a job in this world.

Truly a dream job.

Even if you get accepted into such a place, it's like you're struggling from the first day saying you don't want to go to work. If anyone sees it, they will point their finger at them saying they are full.

'To be honest, even like me, they cursed!

But I also have a reason. Actually, I am a foreigner and possessor.

It's something that never happens in real life, but it's very common in media like novels and cartoons.

If this is a novel and someone is reading it, even after hearing the introduction,

"Ah, you bastard! Have modern people been possessed by the character while reading a fantasy novel? And since you're acting as an aide, you're obviously not the main character. ]

will say. That's right, it was very accurate.

'It's the reason I'm reluctant to go back to work... .'

According to the novel I possessed, [Master of the Holy Sword], it can be roughly expressed in this way.

There is a setting that Serpence hates evil more than anyone else after losing her parents due to an attack by a group that worships the devil as a child.

He ascended to the title of duke at the young age of fifteen, but solidified that position with his natural resourcefulness.

Now, 9 years have passed since then, Serpens is the best ear in the world, receiving the respect of all the people of the empire.

is a tribe

It wasn't just that.

Serpence is known for giving her own things to help the powerless, with a very honest and innocent personality.

In addition, the genius swordsmanship skills that he has constantly honed since childhood!

He is known as the next 'master of the holy sword, my sperm, with no flaws to be found.

Looking at the above expression,

[ Ah~, was that child the main character? ]

It would be nice to think that , but sadly you are wrong.

A nominee is a story about what people thought.

He was not the one chosen by the Holy Sword.

After all, isn't he a 'with that setup' person? If a Shinto was sane, he wouldn't have chosen such a person as the master of the Holy Sword.

You might be wondering what kind of bullshit that is, but if you think about it carefully, it is not.

'Did you not even notice the strange contexts so far?'

So, he is not a character in such a setting, but a character in a setting with such a setting.

To help you understand, it was Serpens who killed his parents.

'And for me this is the most important thing... .'

According to the novel, Serpens had two assistants in the past.

One is the setting that someone died at the hands of someone while investigating something according to Serpense's orders.

And the other was in a wagon accident.

set to be dead.

Serpens, who is said to have been grieved by the death of his aides, said he has not hired a new aide since then.

'And there were two caveats in the descriptions related to serpents.'

First, the word 'he died with ~' can be read by replacing it with 'He killed him'.

Second, the word 'known as ~' means that it is actually a gupeng.

'I'm not exaggerating, really!'

For nothing, I said 'there is a setting'

Ji, I didn't mean to say, It's split.

This is the author's official official!

Hey~. But the second assistant is me, right?

Oh! Whenever Serpence suddenly appeared, I remember the readers joking around with the name, 'Suspense has appeared!'

It's really suspenseful, please help me.
