Woke up as a Worthless Swordsmanship Genius

Episode 44:

There was a strange tension.

I didn’t say my name, but you already know me.

All I could think was that they had investigated my background.

Did he sense the meaning in my eyes?

He added hastily.

“There was no background investigation. Isn’t Raymond a famous person? Their clothing and appearance are known. “I figured it out based on that.”

Are you saying that now?

Obsessed with impressions? Right now, I wasn’t dressed like a cadet, much less the clothes I usually wore at the count’s house.

He was wearing common clothes bought at the market and a robe used by mercenaries.

Plus, it was strange that they recognized me based on my appearance.

He spoke as soon as the candle was lit.

What that means is that he recognized my identity by looking at my face in less than a second.

‘Who do you think is an idiot?’

No matter how sharp a person he or she was, that was impossible.

Are my looks known? There are countless people in the world with brown hair, and there are probably a few people who look like me.

But the fact that I recognized it as soon as I saw it was like trying to make fun of me.

“Do it in moderation, right? “I’m not very personable.”

“sorry.”

He quickly admitted his mistake.

In the heavy atmosphere, he offered me a chair with a sad smile.

I didn’t sit in that chair.

It was not difficult to see that the chair he handed me had been handcrafted.

“I guess you’ve gained a lot of guts these days? “They use all these things against nobles.”

A needle the size of a finger joint, which was stuck in the center of the chair and was hard to see, was pulled out.

“Haha…”

He looked at me with a clumsy smile.

I clicked my tongue lightly and moved the chair aside.

“I don’t like long conversations. So let’s get straight to the point.”

His expression became serious.

He listened to what I had to say.

“Why did you do that?”

“yes?”

He frowned.

Everyone asks why they did that, but who wouldn’t be embarrassed?

“I’m not very patient and I just don’t have a very good personality?”

“….”

“You know me too. What kind of person am I? What did they call me at times? ah. right. “Yeah, you idiot.”

“Hmm.”

He was very embarrassed by the word “f****” coming out of my mouth.

How many people can call themselves a fool?

Nobles in particular feel terrible about being insulted.

“Why are you so embarrassed? “I don’t think the word ‘asshole’ is that bad.”

“….”

“That’s not what’s important. “The important thing is that I feel bad because of you.”

“yes…?”

Hao’s body stiffened.

The words that made me feel bad couldn’t have given me goosebumps so much.

“What does that mean all of a sudden?”

Hao spoke calmly with a stiff face.

I ignored him and looked at the chair I had moved aside.

The conversation seemed like it would be long, but my legs hurt from standing still.

Thump and thud.

I pulled out all the thorns that were stuck in the chair and dropped them next to me.

That’s not enough.

“Can I use this?”

“…yes. Write.”

Hao looked at the leather cloak I pointed to and nodded weakly.

It was only a brief conversation, but he already seemed exhausted.

A guy called an intelligence merchant is so tired that he can’t deal with even one person.

Even if I tried to pretend, it was not good.

“Well, not bad.”

It must have been made of high-quality leather, so it felt quite soft on my butt.

“How much did we talk about? ah. yes. “The reason I feel bad.”

“….”

“You know why I’m in a bad mood, right? “Wouldn’t it be strange not to know?”

“…”

“Would you understand if I said I was a contractor?”

“…!”

His eyes fluttered violently.

The eyes that had nowhere to go looked very anxious.

After a moment, he stood up and said:

“haha. I didn’t even serve refreshments properly to the guests. Could you please wait a moment? “I will bring you some food and drink.”

“as you please.”

Hao quickly left the room.

I looked around and went out through the door I came in through.

Then I walked around the basement and looked at each room.

“Is that really the case?”

There might have been at least one person in the room, but there wasn’t a single one in sight.

And a rumbling sound was heard from the entrance leading to the underground cavity below the ground.

It was obvious that they were gathered together to do something, but they passed by without going inside.

‘Where is William?’

I wish they would wait until I finish talking to William.

“They might still be cleaning there.”

I left the basement.

Interestingly enough, the bar was closed and there were no people there.

Even the bartender.

I walked around the bar and opened and closed the doors to the rooms.

“Not here either. “Here too…”

William was in a room at the very end of the second floor of the tavern.

But I wasn’t alone. There were five more men and women.

No matter what they were talking about, as soon as I entered, they quickly hid what they were holding.

“William.”

“What is it!”

He sent the people he was with out.

And he glared at me as hard as he could. I felt his gaze and opened my mouth.

“Do you want to become king?”

***

Hao was not greatly embarrassed by Raymond’s sudden visit.

The radius of his actions was already within his information network.

It wasn’t too bad that he came here.

If they do well, they might become their customers.

A big man like Raymond is always welcome.

“I feel bad because of you.”

However, the direction of the conversation was different than I expected.

I thought he had come to make a request, but that wasn’t the case.

The atmosphere was so icy that it wouldn’t be strange to swing a sword right away.

“…Contractor….”

His whole body stiffened at that one word.

He mentioned an attempt to kill him at the request of the vice principal.

But how?

The matter was kept completely secret, and the dead gang members were thoroughly instructed to commit suicide immediately so that they would not reveal anything if they were caught.

I hurriedly came out.

‘What should I do?’

I couldn’t get in touch with the vice principal as to what on earth he was doing.

Could it be that he blew it?

The client?

‘Cut the tail.’

I felt like he couldn’t handle Raymond so much that he took a step back and confessed that we had done it.

“Damn you guys. Gather together now!”

He called all the gang members who knew how to fight at all.

‘There’s no way he came alone.’

No matter how confident you are in your skills, there is no reason for you to come to a place like this alone.

There will definitely be escort knights.

The count’s guard knights are a force that can never be ignored.

In particular, in order to protect him as his successor, a knight commander or someone of similar ability may be attached.

No matter how much information you collect, there are things you don’t know.

“We must kill Raymond.”

I will kill him using the elite wild dogs and all of the members of the organization that have been eating knives.

No matter how talented you are, there is no business standing in front of the majority.

After killing him and killing the vice principal, I will leave this place.

I’m thinking of going to another country until things calm down.

“Kill this guy!”

“yes!”

The whole wild dog moved.

***

William looked up at me like I was crazy.

“Did you say you are the king now?”

As if asking why all this nonsense is happening.

I scratched my cheek at his reaction.

It seems like you said it seriously, but did it sound like a joke?

How should I say it and believe it?

“Name William. Appearance age: 16. Appearance age: 32. Born as the child of a prostitute, lost his parents when he became an adult…”

His past came out from my mouth.

His face hardened.

I was even telling him things he kept completely secret.

“What are you doing!”

He grabbed my collar.

He was not born in this city.

He was born far away from here, lived as the son of a prostitute, and moved to another city after his parents died.

This city doesn’t know whose son he is.

Since I’m saying that, you’re probably thinking that I’ve investigated his background.

“Um…”

I grabbed his hand that was holding my collar.

Crack.

The sound of bones cracking came out and he screamed and fell to the ground.

“Don’t try to grab me by the collar. If it were someone else, I would have died.”

“You…!”

He groaned and pointed his finger at me.

I put my hand aside and bent my knees to stop at eye level with him.

“I can confidently say that I know you better than anyone else here.”

“Ugh….”

“Are you satisfied with your life as a low-level employee? I think not. “You are not the kind of person who will be satisfied with a position like this.”

“What do you know about me!”

“I know. Even what desires you have. You will never be satisfied with that position. Absolutely not. There’s no way a guy who wants to be the king of the shadows would be satisfied with the position of a low-level employee. “Don’t you want to change the underworld by becoming king?”

“…!”

My dream, which I had never told anyone, came out of someone else’s mouth.

William could not easily open his mouth.

The more I talked, the more I felt possessed.

“I will listen to that dream.”

“…How can you?”

“well. I can. “I can elevate you to whatever position you want.”

“How can I trust you?”

His reaction, which had always been angry, changed.

I continued speaking with joy in my heart.

“Then if I give you a wild dog, will you believe it?”

“what?”

“It’s better to start with something than to start with no capital. “A wild dog is the best place to start.”

“….”

William closed his mouth.

It was absurd.

It is said that a person whom he does not know approached him and offered to let him have a wild dog.

I don’t know who he is, but unless he is a very wealthy person or nobleman.

That was impossible.

Even though Wild Dog is smaller than other large organizations, it is still a place that has made a name for itself.

There were quite a few branch organizations.

“Why can’t I believe it?”

“Isn’t it obvious? Wild dogs are also used by many nobles! Do you think you can have a place like that if you want to?”

A group of information dealers and contract killers that are also used by nobles.

Rather, even if you are a noble, you can suffer harm if you try to occupy this place.

“So you say it. “If I give you this place, will you trust me?”

“Is it okay to just believe? If that’s really the case, I’ll serve you as my master for the rest of my life.”

“Oh yeah?”

It was the answer I wanted.

As they were about to speak to him, the door to the room they were in was broken. Beyond that, life gushed out in a steady stream.

“Why the wild dog’s claws?”

The claws of a wild dog.

These are elite wild dogs who carry out contract killings.

Their skills were equivalent to those of low-level or mid-level knights.

“Kill!”

They rushed at me. I avoided the lead guy’s sword and grabbed him by the neck.

Crackling –

I twisted my neck and said to William.

“You should keep that in mind.”

Kwaaaaang!

The side of the door was torn off and the man flew out.
