Episode 91:
I felt stinging gazes.
The gaze of the Count’s people looking at me could not be said to be very positive.
It was definitely a happy occasion for me to graduate from the academy and take on a raid, but there were people who were worried.
Now that I have the strength, I’m worried because I don’t know what kind of trouble I might get into.
Even though I said I had changed, there were people who were waiting to see how long that would last.
But today, at this moment, everyone had the same reaction.
“crazy. “It’s a real raid!”
“You said you caught that?”
“It’s not just Reid. “There’s even a basilisk!”
There were only two monsters I brought.
It can be seen as very poor for entering the North, but if the monster is Raid, the situation is different.
It was clear that this alone was a great ingredient that could improve the family’s power, including the territory’s financial status, to the next level.
That’s why they are so surprised and look at me with excitement.
‘It’s like this with Raid, but I’m going to faint when I see a hatchling.’
Seeing their reactions, I decided not to show hatchling even more.
It is obvious that as soon as the hatchling is shown to them, it will be disintegrated into pieces and used as magic material.
Although a dragon is not a creature that can be caught that easily.
‘Count Millennium is a person who makes the impossible possible.’
9th Circle Archmage.
To him, a hatchling who cannot use verbs is nothing more than food.
“I’m going back now.”
“hmm? Wouldn’t it be nice to have a meal together?”
“Since we have work to do, I will treat you properly next time.”
Count Skylar smiled as he hugged Beatrice’s shoulders.
Although he didn’t show it, he was anxious to use the by-products of the raid.
Even though I didn’t have Reid’s magic stone, the leather and bones are of great value as research materials.
It was a foregone conclusion that their territory would definitely advance to the next level.
Nevertheless, the reason we cannot delay is because we have a great desire to deal with the by-products as quickly as possible.
“Then there’s nothing we can do. See you next time. “Ah, I’ve given permission to use magic, so you can just go from here.”
“Thank you very much for your consideration. Beatrice, if you have something to say, say it now.”
Within the Millennium Count family, high-level magic cannot be used carelessly.
High-level magic is magic of the 6th circle or higher.
Due to the barrier created by Count Millennium, magic beyond the 6th circle cannot be used without his permission.
If he is not freed, Count Skylar will have to leave the city and use magic.
Because he knew that, he bowed his head and gave thanks.
“Raymond.”
“uh.”
“See you next.”
Her mood was brighter than before.
I waved at her and saw her off.
“Then goodbye. Warp!”
A halo of light surrounded them and they disappeared in an instant.
Count Millennium, who was looking at the place where the lingering scent of mana remained, turned to me and said to his vassals.
“Move these to the magic tower and prepare some light refreshments.”
“insect!”
The retainers moved around busily, pounding their fists on their chests.
The by-products of the raid disappeared before my eyes, but I didn’t show the slightest interest.
These were what I was going to give him anyway.
Based on these, I just have to take something else from him.
“Are they the ones you accepted?”
“yes.”
Count Millennium rubbed his chin as he looked at Mahol and Reina.
“Looking at the energy he gives off, he seems to be a mid-level knight. “But you still have eyes to see.”
“....”
“Deacon.”
“Did you call me?”
The deacon who was standing behind him came up and bowed his head in front of him.
“I need you to make some effort this time.”
“I will follow your orders.”
“Did you say Raina? “I guess I can leave the training to the head maid.”
The head butler bowed his head once again and approached Mahol and Raina.
“Please follow me.”
At his words, they turned to me.
“I have that too, but I wanted to make sure.”
“hmm?”
“I wondered how far I could go if I didn’t have Millennium on my back.”
“Hmm....”
Ahar is about to cause a monster wave, and to stop it, he goes to hatch Reid’s egg! It is impossible to say that.
So this excuse was just right.
“So, is the verification finished?”
“yes. “I knew where my place was.”
“That’s a good thing.”
Count Millennium closed his mouth for a moment, then opened it.
“But that doesn’t mean I can forgive you for ignoring my orders. “I think you know that well.”
“yes.”
Count Millennium is a person who is in a position to lead all the people of the Count family.
Even though I am his son, I cannot just ignore someone who disobeys his orders.
“I will place you on probation for three days, so during that time you will reflect on your mistakes.”
“yes.”
It was a very light punishment for disobeying the head of the family’s orders.
No, this wasn’t much different from giving a reward to rest rather than a punishment.
It’s just that I have to punish them, so I’m giving it to them in the name of probation.
“If you punished someone, you should also give them a reward. “If there’s anything you want, let me know.”
“Hmm...”
I didn’t really want anything right now.
Ahar, who is trapped in the north, must remain trapped there for at least half a year.
So, all you have to do is relax and prepare for about a month.
Should I just ask for money instead? The more money you have, the better.
no. I stole some money from the vice principal and have quite a bit of money.
Isn’t there something more useful other than that?
‘Oh, now that I think about it, I have to go see William.’
Suddenly I thought of him.
A secret organization that gathers information for me.
It was soon time to introduce him to Alice.
Since I can’t visit him at any time, synergy will increase if I introduce her, who is my source, to him.
“Can I ask you next time?”
I don’t want anything right now.
It is more beneficial to ask for his help later when you really need it.
“It’s not difficult.”
Count Millennium nodded, saying he understood.
“There is a family meal in the evening, so you should be there on time.”
“yes.”
“Go and take care of your work.”
Count Millennium’s eyes followed me as I woke up.
As Raymond opened the door and went out, Count Millennium put his hand behind Raymond’s back.
Uuuuung –
The mana that escaped from his hand wrapped around Raymond’s body and grabbed a living creature.
“...?”
Raymond looks back.
“Why are you doing that?”
“ah. no.”
Raymond scratched the back of his head and left, closing the door.
Tick. Count Millennium raised his hand and waved.
Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!
The hatchling’s cloak was broken and she struggled to escape his grasp.
“This is true. That’s funny. A dragon that follows humans. “Is this why you went to the North?”
Does Raymond not know about the human who raised the dragon?
It would be quite absurd if they really went to the North for this hatchling.
It would be absurd even if it was included as an extra.
“Killing is best, but”
Wow!
The hatchling is scared.
At the thought that I could really die, I bared my teeth and said, ‘Kyaaaa!’
“It’s a pet that my son brought home after a long time.”
Count Millennium’s eyes lit up as he grabbed the hatchling’s neck.
“I will raise you to the point where you can protect your master.”
It was the moment when Hatchling’s ticket to hell was sold out.
