I Became the Genius Bastard of a Noble Dark Clan – 123

Chapter 123

Episode 123

For a moment, Chris thought of something else.

‘What is Princess Yurian thinking?’

He must have felt the atmosphere of the banquet hall, but Yurian just looked the same.

That warmth doesn’t seem like smoke.

So it was weird.

I felt a terrible sense of discomfort.

‘We have to dig into it.’

Since we will be in a full-blown hostile relationship with Princess Yurian from now on, it was necessary to figure out what kind of person she was.

Finally, an opportunity arose.

She went out onto the balcony alone, as if to get some air.

Chris followed her to the balcony.

But the moment I was about to enter the balcony.

Christian paused.

‘The Curtain of Magic?’

A faint curtain was drawn inside the curtains, as if to block the view inside the balcony from that inside the banquet hall.

‘What are you doing inside?’

It was a chance to find out Princess Yurian’s secret.

Chris secretly manipulated the magic to disable the curtain’s security effect without Princess Yurian noticing.

‘what?’

Chris opened his eyes wide.

It wasn’t something secret.

Princess Yurian was holding onto the railing and retching.

“Ugh. Ugh.”

With a disgusted face, as if he had encountered the most disgusting thing in the world.

It was an unexpected sight, and Christian stood still, unusual for himself.

‘What are those scars?’

Originally, Yulian wore clothes that covered her entire body tightly.

But now, because of the nausea, her clothes were somewhat disheveled, and the skin that could be seen here and there was full of small scars.

There was no sign of any injuries sustained during combat.

… looking at the shape, it was a self-harm scar.

‘It’s too bad for self-harm.’

therefore.

It was as if he had tortured his own body.

Princess Yurian barely managed to stop herself from vomiting.

Then, he used black magic to erase the traces of his vomit and returned to his original form.

With the face of a princess who is loved and respected by all, known to all, the Dark Maga.

And then he spoke with a slightly stiff face, perhaps sensing the presence of someone.

“Is anyone out there?”

“…This is Christian.”

“Oh, come in.”

Yurian dismantled the curtain of magic.

Chris didn’t seem to notice that he was being spied on.

“What’s going on?”

“I have something to tell you, Your Majesty.”

“Sister.”

“…yes?”

Yulian smiled faintly.

“I told you to call me sister before. Even though we are competitors, I don’t think we need to be so sharp on each other.”

“…….”

“Honestly, I don’t hate you.”

Chris was silent for a moment.

The image of Yurian I saw earlier came to mind.

Infinitely painful.

A face that was simultaneously filled with deep disgust.

What was the hatred directed at?

and.

Why did Yurian make a deal with the devil?

‘I didn’t sign the contract simply out of greed.’

It became clear from the scene just now.

There was something wrong with Yulian.

The circumstances under which he had to offer his soul to the devil.

It wasn’t welcome news.

Those who made a pact with the devil out of simple greed had nothing to fear.

But if there is something deeper.

If there was a reason for a pure soul to become corrupted, and thus receive the devil’s affection.

They receive amazing ‘blessings’ from the devil.

“I don’t hate you either, Princess.”

“Sister. If you don’t keep calling me like that, I won’t talk to you anymore?”

“…Sister.”

Yurian chuckled.

A clear smile, reminiscent of a fairy.

“So, why do you think our little brother came to see you?”

“No special business. I just came to say hello.”

“Really? Thanks. Actually, I had something to say to you too.”

“What do you want to say?”

“huh.”

Yulian nodded and whispered softly.

“Thank you for ruining Ashed Orabeoni.”

“!!”

Chris felt goosebumps for a moment.

There was only the usual smile on Yurian’s lips, but it seemed as if an invisible, eerie disgust had passed through him.

“…It seems you weren’t on good terms with Prince Ashed.”

“Ah. Even though he’s my older brother who came from the same boat as me, isn’t he a person who’s hard to like?”

Yulian smiled.

“If it weren’t for you, I would have taken action. No matter what, human sacrifice? It was so disgusting that I couldn’t help it.”

“…okay.”

Chris nodded slowly.

Yulian laughed playfully.

“Don’t make such a scary face. Like I said before, I don’t hate you. Maybe I even think you’re a little cute? So I think you and I could be good sisters and brothers.”

Chris didn’t answer.

It was difficult to be sure whether Yurian’s words were sincere.

‘I don’t understand.’

This is unusual considering Chris’s ability to instantly read someone’s mind.

‘Anyway, it was a gain in itself to have glimpsed Princess Yurian’s inner thoughts.’

When I saw the abyss rippling within Yurian, it was clear that she had been properly ‘blessed’ by the devil.

Had to be on guard.

“Then shall we go out? Next time, come visit this older sister. I’ll prepare lots of sweet cakes and your favorite ginger juice.”

“…Ginger juice is done.”

As I came out, Chris tilted his head.

The atmosphere was strange.

The noisy conversation suddenly stopped, and even the sound of music disappeared, making it quiet.

Chris quickly noticed the reason for the change.

A new person appeared at the banquet hall.

A size as big as a mountain.

An atmosphere that feels like a sharpened blade.

An intense sense of oppression that encompasses the intestines.

Chris recited the name of the person who appeared with a slightly surprised expression.

‘… Marquis Schuppen?’

He was the head of the Shupen Marquis family, the highest branch of the collateral line, and the commander of the 10,000 ‘Dark Demon Army’ responsible for the outer wall of the Dark Demon House.

A whopping 7-star level realm.

The strongest member of the Dark Maga along with Marquis Langham.

‘Why Marquis Schuppen?’

The Marquis of Schuppen was in no position to attend a banquet celebrating the title bestowed upon the prince.

‘if?’

When Chris’s eyes widened as he guessed the reason.

The Marquis of Langham, who was sitting at the head of the table, said:

“What is it, Your Majesty?”

“I came here because I had a drill report. Something went wrong at Gold Cross.”

At those words, the room was in an uproar.

I had a gut feeling that this was not an ordinary thing.

“What’s going on?”

“The ‘Shock Plague’ broke out in Gold Cross.”

“!!”

The Black Death.

It’s a terrible epidemic.

The problem was the modifier ‘display’ attached to the front.

It refers to the Black Death, a plague that was spread by black magic rather than a natural outbreak.

It is more lethal and brutal than the common Black Death.

“No, the Black Death on display? How could that happen?”

“Is there something wrong, Your Majesty?”

The vassals of the family expressed their doubts.

Marquis Schuppen shook his head.

“According to the Dark Demon Army’s confirmation, it is indeed the Black Plague.”

“Who on earth would do something like that?”

The people who went looked like they couldn’t understand.

“I don’t know the exact motive behind it. But what’s important is the reaction of the Gold Cross guys.”

Marquis Schuppen’s eyes flashed like lightning.

“The Gold Cross’s Pope Pentagel III has identified our Dark Maga as the mastermind behind this.”

“!!”

“How dare you put such a false accusation on our Dark Maga. This is an unbearable insult.”

Marquis Schuppen looked at Marquis Langham.

“For the honor of the Dark Maga, please allow me to move the Dark Maga army to punish the Gold Cross guys.”

Everyone gulped.

It was a story that announced the coming of a bloody storm.

like that.

The Gold Cross disaster, the ‘Fall of the Star’ incident, was the first prelude to the coming era of destruction.

* ? ?* ? ?*

‘It’s finally starting.’

Chris’s eyes softened.

It was the same as the original progression of history.

More than 30,000 innocent people will be sacrificed in this incident.

The spread of the Black Death.

This is the combined number of victims of the conflict between Dark Maga and Gold Cross that followed.

The problem is that it doesn’t end there.

‘This incident will cause the Gold Cross to become irreversibly corrupted. As a result, the Four Kings will gain great profits.’

It must be stopped.

The first thing to do is to avoid clashes between the two armies.

‘The fact that Dark Maga and Gold Cross are waging war is because the mastermind behind this is moving in the direction he wants.’

After the banquet, a family meeting was held.

Unusually, Norwegians also participated in the meeting, as it was an event that could potentially lead to an all-out war.

However, as if he was still delegating the decision to the Marquis of Langham, he sat in the center seat as if he was observing from behind.

The vassals who had been watching Norse’s mood at first soon raised their voices and expressed their opinions.

“We must raise a large-scale military force immediately!”

“How dare you try to frame our Dark Maga like this!”

The mood at the meeting was generally hostile.

This time, it was as if Gold Cross had spat on the still dark Maga first.

Of course, there were those who were cautious.

“You shouldn’t underestimate the Gold Cross. They’ve been wavering lately, but the Gold Cross is one of the mainstays of the Alliance. If we make a mistake, our Dark Maga side will suffer great damage.”

The largest forces of the Crusade Alliance are:

The Karn Empire.

Holy Empire.

Gold Cross.

They were called the Allied Three Powers.

There were also small but undeniable powers such as the ‘Master Swordsmanship’, ‘Mirror Ice Palace’, ‘Master Swordsmanship’, ‘Fanatical Cult’, ‘Round Table’, ‘Heavenly Tower’, and ‘White Tiger Sect’, but for now, those three giant nations were the mainstay of the alliance.

Although Gold Cross’s power was significantly inferior to that of other great powers, it could not be underestimated.

“You’re saying that I should just stay still after enduring such humiliation?! If I train with the extreme poison Maga, I can easily take on someone like Gold Cross!”

“If we move with the extremely poisonous Maga, it will truly become an all-out war! We must receive the approval of His Majesty the Demon King!”

“If you accept it, won’t that be enough?! Even the ‘Demon King of the Clear Stream’ won’t object!”

“I won’t oppose the joining of forces with even the most powerful Magado!!”

At that moment, Marquis Langham knocked on the table.

“Stop it, everyone calm down. We are in front of the lord.”

“…….”

Everyone who passed away suddenly shut their mouths.

Marquis Langham said to Nordian.

“What decision would you like your Majesty to make?”

“Keulkeul, why are you asking me that? I’ve told you over and over again, but didn’t this old man say that he left all authority to the Marquis? If the Marquis decides that an all-out war is necessary, then do so. This old man will follow suit.”

“…….”

The vassals watched the Norsemen closely.

From my experience of assisting the Norse for a long time, I have noticed that the Norse are reluctant to listen to their opinions.

Indeed, the Norseman said this.

“However, perhaps it’s because I’m an old woman, but there’s one thing I’m worried about.”

“What is it?”

“What do you think it might be?”

As the men looked at each other, Christian opened his mouth.
