I Became the Genius Bastard of a Noble Dark Clan – 107

Chapter 107

Episode 107

Dang! Dang!

The bell rang, but few people actually showed up.

This is thanks to the fact that a significant number of those who were standing guard in the vicinity were cleared out through an ambush in advance.

Of course, after a little while, proper power will come rushing in from inside the castle, but it is already too late.

Hwaaaaak!

A black sword transformation flame rose from Merlin’s sword.

A flame of destruction made of black swords struck the inside of the gate.

A giant latch, to be exact.

The gate shook, and Merlin used all his might to cut the latch again.

at last.

“Oh, no!!!”

The men of Count Liberi’s household, who arrived late, shouted with pale faces.

Kuuung!!

The gate opened.

and.

The Black Swamp Knights of Count Khazar’s family, who had been hiding in the darkness, entered the castle.

It was the moment when a storm of blood swept over the Countess of Liberi.

* ? ?* ? ?*

The battle was one-sided.

In fact, if you only consider power, there is not much difference between Count Kajar and Count Ribery.

The Counts of Liberi are also the highest vassals.

But even if you have the same strength, the results can be very different depending on how you approach the fight.

The Count of Qajar, who did everything he could.

Count Liberi was caught completely off guard.

It was a fight whose outcome was decided from the start.

Thanks to this, Count Kazar had time to look around.

“Our target is the Count Liberi family! Be careful not to harm civilians!”

“all right!”

The battle that took place late at night began to conclude before dawn.

It was a great victory beyond compare.

While the Counts of Libery suffered great losses, the Counts of Qajar suffered no significant damage.

“But it’s strange. It’s too easy.”

Count Khazar said unconvincingly.

Chris agreed.

“Something feels strange. It was a surprise, but it came crashing down so absurdly.”

“I don’t know where Count Liberi has gone. He must be in the castle.”

Strangely enough, Count Liberi was nowhere to be seen throughout the battle.

It was the decisive reason why the opponent was defeated so overwhelmingly.

“Either he ran away. Or.”

Count Kazar turned his gaze.

The deepest part of the castle.

It was the mansion of the Counts of Liberi, which had not yet been occupied.

“He must be crouching in his fortress, waiting for us.”

Just then, the mine that had been sent out for reconnaissance came running!

“The situation in the mansion is strange! It is covered in a thick fog of curses, and I cannot approach it!”

Count Khazar chuckled.

“I don’t have the confidence to come out and fight you myself, so it looks like you’ve set a trap in the mansion.”

“I think so.”

“Well, it doesn’t matter. A coward like that is no match for me.”

Count Kazar spoke in a firm voice.

In fact, Count Khazar is a 6-star rank.

On the other hand, Count Ribery was a six-star medium.

Considering that the gap between the upper, middle, and lower classes widens as you go up even within the same surname, it wasn’t an excessive amount of confidence.

But Chris was not at ease.

‘Something is strange. Even Count Liberi must know that he is inferior to his father. Why doesn’t he run away?’

Suddenly, Chris remembered the curses he had seen from Count Liberi in the County of Bursen.

A great talent that cannot be ignored.

I had an ominous feeling.

“I will go with you too.”

“you also?”

“Yes, that will help.”

Although that is unlikely.

The worst-case scenario could have happened.

I had to be confident.

Fortunately, Count Kazar nodded.

Christian is a strong man. He has passed the stage where he can be embraced as a son.

But Tern, who was standing next to him, spoke hurriedly.

“I, I will go with you!”

“…Tern, you?”

“I can help too! I will assist my father and brother with my magic from behind!”

Chris made an ambiguous face.

‘I don’t think that will be of much help?’

But Chris soon changed his mind.

‘… No, it might actually help.’

Chris just remembered the scene where Tern was fighting.

Compared to the last time I saw him, he has grown so much that it’s unbelievable.

Tern was definitely the ‘right person’ for the curse part.

The magic used by the aptitude tester has much more pure power than others, even if it is the same magic, so it will be helpful.

“Father, how about Tern coming with you? It will be a good experience.”

Count Kazar nodded after much thought.

“But, Tern, you are absolutely forbidden from stepping forward.”

“Yes, I will definitely keep that in mind.”

Chris also urged.

“Tern, if a crisis arises, you must trust what I say and follow it.”

“all right.”

Tern nodded, and Chris looked at the mansion.

“Then let’s go.”

* ? ?* ? ?*

The mansion was extremely splendid, showing the status of the Counts of Liberi.

Magnificent size.

Countless statues.

A garden beautifully embroidered like a scene from a painting.

But now it was just a bit shabby.

The Black Swamp Knights’ minions surrounded the mansion with ominous aura.

“What’s the condition inside?”

“It’s quiet.”

“Quiet?”

“Yes, I can’t feel any movement at all.”

As always, it’s a story that I can’t understand.

If the mansion was the last bastion, it would have been right to gather the minions under his command and prepare for defense.

“That’s strange.”

“Yes, it is impossible to confirm the exact situation inside. The moment you step inside, you will be cursed with mental confusion.”

Count Kazar raised his gaze and surveyed the entire mansion.

“It’s called ‘Running Madness.’ It’s a black magic spell that inflicts a curse of mental confusion over a wide area.”

6-star idea curse.

The entire mansion was within the scope.

But Count Kazar kept tilting his head.

“I don’t understand. Why are you wasting your energy like that?”

Idea.

Exclusive to the 6-star master class.

It is a powerful ability, but it consumes a lot of strength each time it is used.

Especially when it comes to wide-area ideologies like that.

“I don’t think you’d think such a trivial curse would work on me.”

Damn it.

Count Kazar stepped toward the closed door of the mansion.

[Kiaaaaak!]

My vision became blurry and I could hear a ringing in my ears.

“conflict!!”

I let out a single scream, and was shaken out of my confusion by the sound of shattering glass.

The curse was suppressed by force.

In the first place, wide-area black magic was only useful for massacring a large number of weaklings, and was of little use against strong opponents like Count Kazar.

“You guys come in too.”

As soon as Christian stepped in, he began to feel confused.

He did not have the power to forcefully overcome the curse like Count Khazar.

but.

‘Only beggars are subject to such curses.’

The principle of the curse was uncovered.

How does it intervene in the mind?

Why confusion occurs.

After analyzing the recipe in detail, I broke the chain.

Even though it’s a wide-area curse, it’s surprising that the curse can be nullified so easily.

Tern also showed great form.

Woof!

A thick ash-colored curtain enveloped Tern.

You put a ‘curse of malice’ on yourself.

The evil surrounding Tern has defeated the curse of confusion that was gathering around Tern.

A reverse idea of defeating a curse with a curse.

As expected, the workmanship was outstanding.

“Both are great. Let’s go in.”

Count Khazar looked briefly satisfied with his sons’ outstanding appearance, then stepped inside.

But after I got inside.

“!!”

The three held their breath.

An unimaginable, horrific sight unfolded.

Squeak. Squeak.

A dissonant noise, like something shaking.

Countless corpses were hanging from the ceiling, dripping with blood!

This was the reason why there was no sound inside the mansion.

They all turned into corpses.

It was when the whole group was frozen in an unexpected and terrible situation.

Snap! Click!

The door through which the three people had entered suddenly closed by itself and was locked.

Then all the windows were closed.

As if no one could escape.

And the music resonates.

An eerie funeral march filled the mansion.

The sound of footsteps echoed through the bizarre and creepy scene.

“It’s been a long time, Count Kazar.”

“!!”

It was Count Liberi.

He was dressed in black as if he were attending a funeral, and in one hand he was holding an old music box playing a funeral march.

Chris noticed the music box’s identity and his face hardened.

“Father, is that thing? From my family home?”

“Yeah, that seems right.”

Count Khazar also frowned.

“The artifact, the ‘Organic Box of Gluttony’. How did that guy get the ‘Ego Artifact’ that’s stored at his parents’ house?”

It refers to a relic that has an ego.

When you make a sacrifice, the ego contained in the music box assists the sorcerer’s curse.

The more sacrifices offered, the more the sorcerer could use curses that far exceeded his abilities.

It was a terrible tool, as befitting a demonic artifact.

“Kekeke, what good is power? I am the first vassal of the Dark Maga. Unlike you who were pushed out to the sidelines and expelled, even though we are blood relatives, it is not difficult to bring back such a relic. By the way.”

Count Liberi looked at Christian with cold eyes.

“No way, I could have imagined that my body would end up like this. I never would have imagined it. Perhaps, Prince Christian, it’s because of you.”

“!!”

“Don’t even think about returning alive.”

Count Khazar stepped forward with a stern expression.

“Shut up. Do you think I’ll let you do as you please?”

“Ha ha, you’re mistaken. Prince Christian is not the only one who will die here today.”

Count Liberi’s eyes shone intensely.

“And you too, Count Khazar.”

“!!”

The music box’s sound began to rise.

Then came the terrible muttering that spread.

[Squeak… Squeak. Give me… food… and… blood…! Uh… hurry… !]

It was the ‘ego’ of the music box.

Just hearing the voice sent ominous shivers down my spine, wondering if it was mixed with a fragment of the devil.

Count Liberi burst into laughter and shouted.

“I have prepared the sacrifice, so eat as much as you like. And play a curse for me!”

Phew!

The blood of those hanging from the ceiling began to be sucked into the music box.

[Kick! Kick!!!]

The more blood was absorbed, the deeper the melody of the funeral march became.

As if sinking into the abyss.

Count Liberi’s body was dyed a deep ash color, and an ominous aura flowed from the music box.

I’m trying to manifest the curse through the music box!

“father!”

“embrace!!”

Pfft!

Count Khazar’s sword was dyed in darkness.

Black pepper.

No, it’s not your average black bean paste.

The darkness of the Black River became thicker as if it was sinking into an abyss.

The curse has begun to take hold.

‘Curse of Madness’ that maximizes attack power.

‘Curse of Shatter’ that shatters the opponent’s defenses.

It wasn’t just once.

The two curses overlapped endlessly, digging into the Black River, and after overlapping dozens of times, complete destruction was brought upon the Black River.

There is even a ‘carnivore restraint’ that fundamentally blocks the evasion of the target.

It was Count Khazar’s ideology, the ‘Blade of Extinction’.

An interpersonal weapon that can inflict a more fatal blow to an opponent than any other attack.

Even once you become a target, it is impossible to avoid.

Pfft!

In a flash, the blade of annihilation touched Count Liberi.
