I Became the Genius Bastard of a Noble Dark Clan – 161

Chapter 161

Episode 161

“What is it? Tell me.”

Since this wasn’t ordinary information, Chris expected the other party to make some big demands.

however.

“I hope that when you become the Grand Duke later, you will tone down your hostility towards our Blood Sword Maga a little.”

“!!”

Chris made a surprised face.

The girl continued speaking, looking straight at him.

“If we are to fight the Commander’s Curse, it would be best for our two families not to be enemies.”

Chris thought for a moment.

‘There’s no need to turn the Blood Sword Maga into an enemy because of the Blood Demon King. The two are separate.’

It may be surprising, but Blood Sword Maga was not on the same side as the Blood King.

Quite the opposite.

Idrine, who was originally the grand princess of Blood Sword Maga, betrayed Blood Sword Maga and switched to Anax’s faction for some reason.

After conquering the Four Kings Castle, she causes a terrible bloody disaster on Blood Sword Maga.

‘You said Leah? That girl also met a terrible death.’

The reason Chris remembers the name ‘Leah’ is because she suffered a terrible death at the hands of the Blood Lord.

I remembered what the dark gossip had said.

– No one knows why Idrin, the grand princess of the Blood Sword Maga, betrayed her family and joined Anax’s faction.

Why did he inflict such a horrible death on his close blood relatives?

It is said that the Demon King of Blood inflicted particularly cruel deaths on his blood relatives who were personally close to him.

I remember there was a lot of talk about her antics at the time.

‘There is no need to try to understand the devil’s mental state.’

The cruelty of the Demon King of Bloodshed cannot be expressed with just the adjective ‘evil’.

Her horror was no different from that of the demons of Gehenna.

‘It wouldn’t be a bad idea to join hands with Blood Sword Maga to keep the Blood King in check in the future.’

“Good. When I become the Grand Duke, I will positively reconsider my relationship with Blood Sword Maga.”

“Thank you! I thought we could communicate.”

The girl, Idrine, smiled brightly and beautifully.

Chris’ answer was a bright smile, as if he was genuinely happy.

‘So bright.’

Chris shrugged.

She was a girl who seemed blunt, but secretly had a pure feeling.

“Oh, by the way, I have something to say in return.”

“What is it?”

“Beware of your family’s Grand Duchess Idrin.”

“!!”

Idrine’s face hardened.

“What… do you mean?”

“It’s true. Idrine is a terrible demon, so you better be careful.”

From Idrine’s perspective, it was a sudden and absurd story.

“I… Ah, no, you’re not that kind of person. You’re a good person.”

“Kind? Is that Idrine? That bloodthirsty bastard? That’s something the ghosts of the Four Kings would laugh at.”

Adrienne shook her head at Christian’s laughter.

“That’s not true! I… no, you’re definitely not that kind of person!!”

“…Do you even have any respect for Archduchess Idrine?”

“The person I respect the most in the world!! There is no one in the world as great as him!”

Idrine suddenly got angry and raised her voice.

‘… There’s no use in me talking any further.’

Just like what Simon had said back then, Idrine seemed to be thoroughly hiding her terrible inner feelings.

“Well, I told you clearly, so do as you wish.”

“what….”

“Anyway, follow me. I’ll let you leave the castle.”

As Chris turned away, Idrine let out a long sigh.

‘Well, come to think of it, it wouldn’t be strange if Prince Christian thought badly of me.’

She had a great notoriety outside.

This is because he has always stood at the forefront of the Blood Sword Maga and has shed a lot of blood.

Bloody murderer.

Vampire of slaughter.

Princess of Blood.

These were the nicknames her enemies called her.

‘But it’s not like I want to do that.’

She calmed herself down and thought.

‘I will clear up Prince Christian’s misunderstanding.’

There was only one way.

She decided to become friends with Christian.

For the sake of both families’ future, it would be good for us to become closer.

‘When your identity is revealed someday, I’ll make you apologize for cursing at me.’

Idrine secretly vowed to herself.

“Let’s go now.”

Before leaving, she held out her hand to Christian.

It was a request for a handshake.

“I will be seeing you often, so please take care of me in the future.”

Chris didn’t shake my hand, just stared at it.

“I don’t think we’re close enough to shake hands. I don’t completely trust you yet.”

“Oh, oh. I apologize for the inconvenience.”

Her face turned red.

I overdid it because I thought I should become closer to you.

Chris looked at her face and chuckled.

Why, aren’t there people who feel that way?

I want to tease you when you’re next to me.

That’s exactly what it felt like.

“I won’t really shake hands though.”

Chris crossed his arms.

“Depending on what you do in the future, our relationship could end up not being so bad.”

Did you understand what I said?

Idrine answered with a smile.

“Don’t worry. I’ll be your friend.”

“…friend?”

“Yes. I will definitely do it.”

Chris let out a snicker.

“Okay, let me just watch.”

* * *

After that, Chris broke up with the vampire girl.

‘Patera, la.’

Chris’s eyes sank.

Mysterious Maga’s test subject.

I didn’t see Chris very often.

It was difficult to find someone who could be a vessel for the demonic spirit to descend.

But Chris knew a lot about the subjects.

Perhaps he knows more about it than most of the mysterious Maga guys.

There was a reason.

‘Because the Dark Chatterbox was one of the test subjects.’

The original Dark Chatterbox was a nine-tailed fox from the Obsidian Maga, but for some reason, she was taken to the Mysterious Maga and became a test subject.

Fortunately or unfortunately, the Dark Chatterbox was a failure as an experimental subject, and escaped just before being disposed of to join the party of heroes.

‘I must not become a test subject in this life.’

Chris thought, recalling the dark chatterbox.

The problem is that we don’t know how the Dark Chatterbox was taken to the Mysterious Maga.

Although she was extremely talkative, she didn’t really say much about herself, so I didn’t know anything about her past.

‘I only know that I was exiled from the Black Magic Mountain.’

Anyway, thanks to her, Chris knew in detail what kind of being the test subject was.

‘There is an opening worth looking into. Of course, it won’t be easy.’

It wasn’t just that it was difficult, it was originally impossible.

It’s something that Chris can try.

‘But I have to do it.’

Besides saving Marquis Shupen, there was another reason for doing this.

This might have been a good opportunity.

He will definitely become the Grand Duke.

‘If I stop the mysterious Maga monster with my own power and save Marquis Shupen, no one will be able to oppose me passing the succession test.’

I might be able to drive a wedge in.

That wasn’t all.

‘This is a chance to raise awareness of the mysterious Maga in the Magic Empire. Most of the people are unaware of the true nature of the mysterious Maga.’

Patera is born through a horrific process.

The plan was to capture and secure evidence to reveal the mystic Maga’s atrocities.

‘I can do it.’

With that in mind, I took a step forward.

First, there was something to do.

“Are you here?”

A man with a fierce aura like a blade.

Marquis Schuppen greeted Chris with a sharp voice.

It was the beginning of a map battle.

Before fighting the monsters of Mysterious Maga, you had to raise the level of Marquis Shupen.

* * *

Pfft!

A black sword flashed in Chris’s hand.

Although it had a power that was incomparable to that of a normal sword, Marquis Shupen blocked the attack without the slightest wavering.

He didn’t make any particularly big moves.

He simply blocked it with his hand wrapped in magic, but Chris’s black energy was scattered in vain.

A scene where you can see the difference in level between the two.

But Chris didn’t give up and unfolded his black sword again and stabbed with his sword.

Marquis Schuppen frowned and waved his hand as if shaking off a bug, and something amazing happened.

Chris was thrown backwards, spitting out blood without even touching his body.

‘As expected, you’re amazing.’

Chris thought, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.

The move that Marquis Schuppen had just made seemed easy, but it contained a subtle twist that broke the ‘law’.

So I felt a shock even though it didn’t even touch my body.

‘To be able to display the power to bend the law so easily. As expected, Marquis Shupen has clearly reached the end of the Seven Stars.’

To use an analogy, it’s like a situation where the bowl is already full of water.

The conditions for reaching the 8th star were sufficiently met.

The problem was the wall.

Because they can’t get over this wall, countless top mines fail to reach the 8th star and are frustrated at the end of the 7th star.

‘But that doesn’t mean it’s necessarily difficult. If you’re given the right opportunity, you’ll be able to overcome the wall.’

A trigger is like a stepping stone that helps you get over a wall.

Marquis Schuppen already has everything.

Just as a full body of water can overflow with a single shake, surprisingly, even a small trigger can allow one to overcome a wall.

The reason he applied for the map training.

Chris planned to give Marquis Schuppen the impetus he needed through his appearance.

“Get up. You won’t fall down like this, will you?”

“Of course.”

Chris stood up and aimed his sword again.

A similar scene has been repeated several times since then.

Chris tried to hit somehow, but it didn’t work at all.

Talent and pride, the gap was too big.

Marquis Schuppen frowned.

“I think we should stop.”

“Not yet.”

“No matter how hard you struggle, there is a limit you cannot overcome.”

This is a story that doesn’t need to be told in detail.

It was a duel where they were not even possible opponents from the start.

however.

“Who decided that?”

“…what?”

“Who said it was impossible, that it was a limitation?”

Chris raised the corners of his mouth.

Although he was in a miserable state after being hit repeatedly, the light in his eyes was still shining.

A look that is so confident that it almost feels arrogant.

“I’ve never drawn a line like that in my life. Isn’t it cowardly to set limits before you even try?”

“!!”

“Are you, Your Majesty, a coward?”

The Marquis of Schuppen’s face hardened coldly.

A look of annoyance.

“You cheeky bastard. Don’t regret it.”

“Don’t worry. I will definitely give Your Majesty a piece of my mind.”

The duel continued again.

But a similar scene was created.

No matter how hard he tried, no matter what methods he used, Chris’s black sword could not reach Marquis Shupen.

“It’s really over now.”

yet.

It was when Marquis Schuppen was about to put an end to it.

The black dragon flew in.

Completely different from before.

Marquis Schuppen moved his hands hastily at the sharp blow that stabbed and dug into his weakness.

Break!

A magical shield spread through his fingers, and Chris’s black energy was repelled back again.

But Marquis Schuppen did not have the same calm expression as before.

I unintentionally deployed a magic shield.

‘You grew up? In that short time?’
